Chapter 196: The Uninvited Guest (2)

"What kind of romance is your company's next movie really going to shoot "My Sassy Girlfriend"?"

Deng Guangrong flipped through the story script and skimmed it roughly, but I really can't see how much box office prospect this kind of literary film has? Therefore, he looked at Cheng Weiliang with a suspicious expression, this kid won't just take a script to prevaricate me, right?

Cheng Weiliang nodded solemnly, "Yes, I plan to invest three million, and I may have to go overseas for filming." ”

3 million?!

Hearing this investment amount, Deng Guangrong even threw away the last trace of hesitation, your mother! It is doubtful whether this kind of literary film has a final box office of 3 million! You can toss this kind of film yourself.

He threw the four scripts back on the coffee table, obviously not very optimistic, he simply showed his meaning, "I think your previous action movies were very good, I appreciate this kind of more, you just follow this genre and write another story for me." ”

"Alas, on the same female police theme, I've already worked hard to write two stories, and I'm really out of inspiration at the moment."

"Even the sequel to my own company's "Overlord Flower", I couldn't do anything about it, so I left it to my subordinates to write. I really can't write it, I'm really sorry. Cheng Weiliang said very embarrassed.

He picked out the script of "Back to the Future" from the coffee table, put it in front of Deng Guangrong, and encouraged: "Really, I think this time machine science fiction story is really promising, Boss Deng, why don't we work together and make a lot of money from Americans." ”

"The investment doesn't need to be very much, if the Americans come to shoot, it will cost 10 million or 20 million US dollars, and our labor is cheap, not so much, probably ...... Well, if you save a little, 50 million Hong Kong dollars should be done. ”

What the? Looking for me to invest 50 million in Western-style science fiction films, am I the wronged leader? When Deng Guangrong heard the number he reported, his muscles bulged, and he almost jumped up on the spot, and his gaze at Cheng Weiliang became unkind.

"Well, if Boss Deng thinks that the cost is a little higher, I will change it, and I should be able to save another 5 million. If we don't have enough funds, we can find some more partners. Cheng Weiliang couldn't understand his expression, and continued to persuade him.

"Mr. Cheng, do you treat me as a Kaizi, or do you think I have in my head?" Deng Guangrong couldn't hold back his fiery temper anymore, stood up and said coldly.

"Hmph, I think you're also exaggerated, what a gold medal screenwriter! Bullshit! Let's go. He shook his hand, beckoned his little brother, slammed the door angrily, and took away the huge box of cash with nothing.

"This script, it's estimated that everyone is about to start filming, if you want it, I can't give it to you!" Cheng Weiliang picked up the book "Back to the Future", which only wrote an overview of the story, looked at the back of his departure, and couldn't help sneering.

Ha, it's said that it's a big man in the entertainment industry, and his vision is nothing more than that.

You don't know how to cherish the gold and silver mountains in front of you, just want to follow the trend and pick up other people's ready-made!

After seeing the uninvited Deng Guangrong and the others leave, Cheng Weiliang sat on the rotating executive chair, alone, thinking quietly.

This time it's Deng Guangrong, which club member will come to the door next time?

In the original time and space, which popular star and director in the Xiangjiang entertainment industry has not been coerced or semi-coerced by community forces to film?

In the future, as his fame becomes more and more famous, and the movies he makes become more and more profitable, I am afraid that he will also become a piece of fat in the eyes of black and white.

It's best to control him and become a golden turtle that lays eggs to help them make money, if not, retreat to the next best, at least like Deng Guangrong this time, and force him to help write a money-making movie script.

It seems that it will be impossible to avoid dealing with those community forces in the future, Cheng Weiliang pondered and came to this conclusion.

In addition to continuing to grow his strength, he is also considering whether he should start contacting the Xiang brothers of Xinji, after all, among so many community forces, these two brothers are still so enthusiastic about the film industry, and they are quite regular in the circle.

By cooperating with them, you can seek refuge from them and avoid many troubles on the road.

But now it's not imminent, and it can be done slowly. His next major tasks are the release of his third album, the preparation of "My Sassy Girlfriend" and the open selection of the actress, as well as his first solo concert in May, which will tour many cities around the world.

……

On the 29th at the end of the month, the new album will be released, and Cheng Weiliang has to go back to Polygram.

"Come, Wei Liang! Enjoy the high quality of the sound on this record. As soon as Cheng Weiliang entered the boss's office, Zheng Donghan proudly took out a record that was very beautiful from the envelope design to the outer packaging to show him.

Then the third album, which has been produced for the longest time in arrangement, mixing, etc., is put on the record player and played for him to enjoy.

"Even if fate is upside down, even if fate is twists and turns, even if fate scares you to be a boring person, don't shed tears and sadness, let alone give up, I would like to, I will always accompany you for the rest of my life......"

"When you die, you have to love! Not dripping, not happy, how deep the feelings are, only in this way is enough to confess! If you are dead, you must love, and you will not cry until you smile or be happy......"

In the record player, Cheng Weiliang's emotionally engaged singing voice came from the shocking sound effect. He listened carefully to a few songs on side A and B, and nodded to Zheng Donghan with satisfaction.

gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Polygram's strength has always been this, I have never doubted it!" ”

This time, there are 4 of the previous 22 songs, pop songs with rock elements or new styles, "Love When You Die", "Single Love Song", "Yes or Can", and "Funeral of the Rose".

In addition, "Red Sun", which was printed on the A side of the record as the first main Cantonese song, and the third album contains a total of five excellent songs written by Cheng Weiliang.

The remaining five songs are not bad, they are Cantonese songs with better quality selected by Zheng Donghan from the company's music library, and he intends to use this "Red Sun" to help Cheng Weiliang consolidate the local Cantonese song market in Hong Kong.

Although in his plan, Cheng Weiliang mainly targets the overseas market of Chinese songs, but appropriately letting him sing some Cantonese songs can strengthen his appeal in the Hong Kong market.
