Chapter 194 Movie Procedures That Can't Be Approved
"Sister Liu, since that's the case, I won't hide it from you, I recently wrote a movie script, and I want to find a few investors, you can take a look. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć After Ding Li finished speaking, he handed the outline of the script he wrote last night to the middle-aged woman from the small bag he was carrying.
As a result, the middle-aged woman didn't answer at all, but looked at Ding Li and asked, "Mr. Ding, I won't read the script, I just want to ask, is it still the same as the previous Crazy Boy movie?"
The muscles on Ding Li's face shook unnaturally a few times.
In the last Troubled Boy incident, the middle-aged woman's company made a lot of money, but it also cost their company a lot.
Of course, money is secondary.
The most important thing is that a movie that their company is preparing to release has been postponed indefinitely, a large-budget movie that is being filmed has been forcibly stopped, the reshoot date is far away, and several movies that are still in planning have been beaten back.
"Sister Liu, it's not that type, it's a love theme. Ding Li said with a smile, and then pointed to the script, "You can understand it when you look at it." ā
"Then I'll see. The middle-aged woman opened the script and read it in detail, and after a few minutes, she raised her head and asked Ding Li, "The subject matter is good, I don't know how much investment you need this time?"
"Sister Liu, the budget of this movie is about 50 million, and I plan to contribute 20 million, but I want to enjoy 50% of the box office profits. Ding Li said slowly.
The middle-aged woman did not rush to answer, but fell into deep thought.
In fact, Ding Li's request is not too much, he is also a screenwriter and director, and he invested another 20 million, for a movie with an investment of 50 million, it is normal to share 50% of the box office profit.
After thinking for a few minutes, the middle-aged woman asked again, "Who are you going to play the male number one?"
"The male number one is naturally me, and as for my salary in this movie, it is only five million. Ding Li pointed to himself.
To be honest, if it was Ding Li before the Crazy Boy incident, the salary of 5 million was really not much, you must know that at that time, in order to invite Ding Li to join, someone offered a salary of 10 million.
But after the Crazy Boy incident, due to a series of strange factors, Ding Li became popular, but there was no film contract, so the salary of five million was barely suitable for him.
"What about the female number one?"
"If nothing else, it should be Li Xiulan. Ding Li said the name of a person who had been thought of when the script appeared last night.
Li Xiulan is on fire, all the fire is purple, coupled with Ding Li's relationship with her, it is understandable to ask her to be the heroine.
The key is that Li Xiulan's schedule license is not permitted.
Even if the schedule is not allowed, Ding Li will find a way to persuade Li Xiulan to let her breach the contract, you must know that after the broadcast of the previous life of the earth, in addition to achieving a huge box office, it also pushed several leading actors to the throne of actor, actress, and best supporting actor and actress respectively, and it has also become a classic role that is more popular among the leading actors.
It was also in this context that there was a TV version of the TV series "Ancient and Modern War Warriors" ten years later.
"What about the other characters?"
"Except for the villain Bai Yunfei and I want Huang Bin to play it, the rest of the roles have not been thought through. Ding Li said.
Huang Bin can be said to be an actor discovered by Ding Li, this guy has been since he played the villain Big Brother Ah Kun in Crazy Boy. is also popular, and he belongs to the kind of constant salary, but like Deng Zhilong, all the roles he receives are villains.
So whether it is out of favor or for the effect of the movie, the villain Bai Yunfei is played by Huang Bin, which is a good choice.
"Leave me a few third-tier characters. The middle-aged woman thought for a moment.
"Good. ā
The two sides have reached a tentative agreement on film investment, which is the kind of temporary agreement that has no legal efficiency.
After that, the middle-aged woman left the teahouse under the pretext of going to the bathroom.
Ding Li knew that the middle-aged woman took this opportunity to call her boss to report on her work.
Ten minutes later.
The middle-aged woman pushed the door open and walked in.
Her face was very unsightly, as if the sky was falling outside.
Seeing the middle-aged woman's face, Ding Li's heart also soared, and a bad feeling emerged.
Something must have happened.
Yes, it must be.
Otherwise, the middle-aged woman would not have such an ugly face.
Sure enough, as deduced in all TV series, it was a good thing, but it still went wrong halfway.
"Teacher Ding. After the middle-aged woman sat down, she took a few sips of tea to calm down before she spoke: "I guess the agreement we just made will be invalidated?"
"Sister Liu, can you tell me the reason?"
"Speaking of which, it's still because of the Crazy Boy incident, and today the people from our company went to approve the movie, but they were still returned. The middle-aged woman smiled bitterly, "I don't know when it will be reapproved, it's been almost two months." ā
After speaking, he said to Ding Li: "That's it, Mr. Ding, I'll find someone for you, she is my classmate and also the vice president of the film company, you talk to her." ā
The middle-aged woman took out the phone, dialed it and said a few words.
Fifteen minutes later, a middle-aged woman in her early forties, still wearing a costume, appeared in their box.
The woman in the costume, probably didn't see Ding Li, and after entering the door, she complained to the middle-aged woman, "Liu Jie, what are you looking for me?" ā
At this time, Ding Li knew the name of the middle-aged woman, who turned out to be Liu Jie.
"Liu Jing, let me introduce you to someone. Liu Jie pointed at Ding Li and introduced: "Ding Li, you must know." ā
Liu Jing looked at Ding Li, stretched out her hand and said, "It's really Teacher Ding, I'm Liu Jing, Liu Jie's best friend and classmate, it's a pleasure to meet you." ā
"Mr. Liu, I'm also very happy to meet you. Ding Li politely said hello, and then the two sides exchanged polite words for about ten minutes before getting to the point.
It's just that just when it comes to the topic, before she can go any further, Liu Jing's face changed, and she said to Liu Jie on the side: "Liu Jie, your company's film approval hasn't come down yet?"
Liu Jie nodded.
"I said, if you don't shoot such a good script, come to me, that's what happened. Liu Jing said a few words and set her eyes on Ding Li's body, "Director Ding, don't hide it, since the Gu Chaozi incident, you and Liu Jie and their company have been blacklisted by the relevant departments." So if this drama is directed by you and starred by you, it will definitely be like Liu Jie's company, and the relevant procedures will not be approved. It's not that it can't be approved, it's the kind that has been dragged until ...... year of the monkey. ā
Ding Li's face changed.
