The next day.
Zhang Yang stepped on the point of going to work and appeared in Lao Ma Zhitu Company.
"You haven't slept all night?" Liang Wanchuan was surprised to see Zhang Yang's red eyes.
"Pretty much. Zhang Yang didn't have time to be polite, so he got straight to the point: "Mr. Liang, do you remember the military drama I told you two days ago?"
"Yes. Liang Wanchuan understood something and asked, "You are here for this?"
"Yes, the venue equipment and the like have been negotiated, and now there is a shortage of money, are you interested?"
"Sit down, sit down, sit down. Liang Wanchuan pointed to the sofa next to him, and asked the secretary to help him make a cup of coffee before asking, "Tell me in detail." ”
Zhang Yang repeated the rhetoric of dealing with Cheng Qingguang.
"You...... You're not kidding, are you?" Liang Wanchuan's reaction was even greater than Cheng Qingguang's, and his face was full of incredulous looks.
Filming and broadcasting?
Don't have a well-established script?
Don't have a big name?
It's all men's play?
Still going to finish broadcasting in a month and a half?
Isn't that a joke?
Liang Wanchuan stretched out his hand to support his forehead, and once wondered if he had heard it wrong.
Zhang Yang knew what he was thinking and said: "Mr. Liang, I know this doesn't sound very reliable, but you believe me, I am sure that this drama will become a very influential drama." ”
"The audience of military dramas is not as wide as that of urban dramas and romantic dramas, and now you don't even have a big name or a female character in this play, and you have lost a large number of audiences here, even the big director Chen Shuli doesn't dare to do this, you are really ......" Liang Wanchuan really didn't know what to say about him.
How about your interesting plot?
Can anyone watch such a drama?
"Mr. Liang......"
Zhang Yang wanted to speak, but Liang Wanchuan waved his hand and said: "Xiao Zhang, it's not me talking about you, you can't say that you are bold anymore, this is simply walking a tightrope empty-handed, it's too dangerous!"
"Mr. Liang......"
Liang Wanchuan interrupted again: "In the film and television industry, my experience can be said to be much richer than yours, sometimes just by looking at the script or story, we can roughly guess its ratings or box office, you said that you can finally negotiate the venue equipment, why don't you write a better book?
"It's a really good script. Zhang Yang felt powerless.
"Xiao Zhang, I know what you are capable of. But you're too young to take things for granted, and sometimes you should listen to us old guys. Liang Wanchuan persuaded hard, and there was no meaning to ridicule him or underestimate him in his tone, "I said something not very good, if you follow the trick of this idea, I am afraid it will be a problem whether there is a platform willing to broadcast it." ”
Zhang Yang smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that today was probably going to be in vain.
"As a person who has come over, I'm not afraid to tell you clearly, it's really difficult to get investment with a book like yours. If you really want to make such a drama, I can only say sorry to you. If you are willing to change the script, we can talk about it, and if you need it, I can introduce you to two screenwriters and help you change it in the fastest time. ”
"Mr. Liang, thank you for your kindness, but I still stick to my idea. He could also tell that he was sincere, and knew that he was genuinely thinking about himself. "I know you have a lot of experience, but I think sometimes we can't just follow the old routine, and I think it's necessary to try to innovate. That's what we young people should do. ”
Liang Wanchuan glanced at him in some surprise.
"Okay, Mr. Liang, since that's the case, I won't bother you. Zhang Yang stood up.
At this moment, Liang Wanchuan's heart was inexplicably a little shaken, and he was a little touched by the few words he had just spoken. Unfortunately, the vacillation was only a matter of moments, and he immediately returned to the role of a businessman. From a businessman's point of view, the show is simply not worth the investment.
"Xiao Zhang, you won't blame me, will you?" Liang Wanchuan quipped.
"How can I be? Zhang Yang smiled: "Business, it's normal to not be able to talk, I still have this awareness." ”
Liang Wanchuan laughed: "Okay, I hope that next time we have the opportunity to cooperate again, I also hope that this time I will be blind." But I still have to advise you again, change the script and add a little commercial element to it, otherwise, I'm afraid you will really fall on your heels this time. ”
"I don't accept your suggestion. Zhang Yang smiled and shook his head.
"I knew I was going to talk about it. Liang Wanchuan shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Leaving from the old horse, Zhang Yang was a little deflated.
He didn't expect this to be the result, with the strength of Lao Ma Zhitu, he thought that he could get two or three million, but he didn't expect Liang Wanchuan to refuse so thoroughly.
He hasn't been contacted by Studio 8 yet, and he's taking a taxi to Miracle Video.
This drama is definitely going to make a lot of money, and of course he has to invest a little. It would be too much to say if you didn't take a bite of such a large bread. However, he didn't have much money on him, so he could only ask Zuo Shanghua for an advance first.
The phone rang suddenly, and Yu Yao called.
"Brother Yu. ”
"I've found a few people at your request, do you want to ask them to come and have a look?"
"Don't worry, you send me the works they have acted, and I'll take a look before deciding whether to meet. ”
"Good. ”
As soon as I hung up the phone, another strange call came in.
"Hello. ”
"Hello, is this Mr. Zhang Yang? I'm Xiao Zhu from Studio No. 8. ”
"Hello, I'm Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang's spirit was shocked, and he said that Zhang Guozhong's work efficiency is really high.
"We received an order from above to discuss with you the filming of "Soldier Assault", do you have time now?" I don't know if it's because of Zhang Guozhong, but the TV is also very polite.
"Yes, yes, that, you give me the address, and I'll go find you. ”
"It's okay, I'm in the studio, you can just come here. ”
"Okay, okay, I still have some things to deal with here, maybe a little later. "It's going to be a miracle video soon, so he just dealt with it in advance first.
"It's okay, I'll wait for you. ”
"Okay, okay. Hung up the phone, Zhang Yang was full of energy, rushed into the miracle video like flying, and went straight to Zuo Shanghua's office to explain his intention.
"Money, are you short of money?" Zuo Shanghua looked at him and said with some astonishment: "Xiao Zhang, what have you been busy with lately, why are your eyes still red?"
"I'm preparing a TV series, and I'm going to start filming it soon. Zhang Yang leaned back on the sofa and rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly. Briefly told me about TV. "Now everything else is almost ready, it's just the actors and the money. ”
"If you want money, you want to invest in this show?"
"Yes, one studio has spent almost all of my money, it's just not enough. Zuo Shanghua knew about the advertising money he earned from Kekou Spring, and he couldn't say that his money was eaten by the ring on his hand, so he could only push it up to the studio.
Zuo Shanghua nodded: "How much do you need?"
"Uh...... How much money can I get for these two shows so far?"
"Both shows are your credit, and one can get at least a million. Why don't I give you an advance of 1 million?"
"That's great. Zhang Yang was delighted, he had no idea how much money the show could make, he thought that he could get five or six hundred thousand at most on the way here, and then he could make up one million from other places.
Unexpectedly, Zuo Shanghua gave him a million as soon as he opened his mouth. Now that the show has only been recorded for a few episodes, it must be a lot to give a million.
Zuo Shanghua called the finance, and then asked, "Are you investing in this drama yourself?"
"How can I have so much money, I'm pulling investment everywhere now. ”
"What is the budget for this drama?" Zuo Shanghua suddenly asked.
"Ten million, and now only two million have been pulled. ”
Zuo Shanghua thought for a while, and suddenly said: "That's it, the company doesn't have much cash, and you can invest two million if you get together, do you think it's okay?"
Zhang Yang was stunned, his face full of surprise.
"Mr. Zuo, you dare to vote if you don't ask me what the situation of this drama is?"
Zuo Shanghua looked a little inexplicable, and asked rhetorically: "What else do I have to worry about your works?"
Zhang Yang was stunned again.
She didn't even know what the situation of this drama was, so she invested 2 million into it, showing that she wasn't going to return it, but just said this when she heard that he still had a big gap.
In the end, it was revolutionary friendship, and this unconditional trust made him can't help but be a little moved.
Of course, she also really trusts his ability and doesn't feel that her investment will not be able to pay off.
"Of course, Mr. Zuo, you've helped me a lot. ”
"Let's not be so polite to each other. You go to the finance side and sign it, and it will hit your account later. I'm afraid I'll have to wait two days for the two million investment, and I'll have to make it up. ”
"Okay, don't rush the investment money, I haven't figured out how it works, I'll negotiate with the studio and sign the contract then." ”
"Do you want to advertise this show? I can introduce you to some advertisers. ”
"No, no, no, no ads. ”
The two chatted for a while, and Zhang Yang hurriedly left with the windfall from Miracle Video, which made all the employees of Miracle Video feel inexplicable.
"Sister Qingyan, what has Brother Zhang been busy with lately? Why are you in a hurry every time?" Xiao Fang asked Su Qingyan, "And Zhao Ning, they are always missing, and they don't want to get paid." ”
She didn't know that Zhao Ning no longer received the salary of the miracle video, and Su Qingyan didn't explain to her, saying: "I don't know what he's busy with, and I haven't seen anyone else for a few days." ”
"No, don't you live together?"
Su Qing looked at her speechlessly.
"No, I mean, aren't you sharing a house?"
"His door was locked when I went to work in the morning, and his door was still locked when I went back at night, how do I know where to go?" Su Qingyan couldn't help but slander in her heart, if it weren't for the fact that every time she left the food was swept away, she would have wondered if he had moved.
"Huh, you don't know?" Xiao Fang was very disappointed, "Seeing that Brother Zhang has always been very tired recently, I have a hunch that he must be secretly doing something big again." ”
"As far as your hunch is concerned, it is strong. ”
"Hey, hey. (To be continued.) )
