Chapter 521: He Must Have an Ulterior Purpose
After listening to Zhou Zhiwei's introduction, Cheng Lili immediately had such a series of question marks in her mind!
When they were filming the TV drama script before, Hezong Media specially sent an invitation, but they didn't respond at all, didn't say it, and didn't say that they couldn't come, but fortunately, Cheng Lili kept an eye on it when she issued the press release, and didn't put the TV station that was going to broadcast this drama in the future in the list of news media, and sure enough, she didn't come at all, and she didn't even give a basic reason for prevarication.

Now that the TV series has been filmed for almost ten days, what are you going to do at this time? And the level of the people who come is neither high nor low, high, there are department directors, and low, there are ordinary employees, and now send such a person who can't make decisions about things and has the ability to influence the outcome of things, what is the idea of Shanghai TV?
But she was bored in her heart, she still smiled, took the initiative to shake hands, and then said: "Director Zhang, hello, welcome, welcome, why didn't you notify in advance, let's pick you up!"
This Director Zhang said with a little reserve: "Miss Cheng, you are fine! Don't be too polite, I am very familiar with Yangcheng, and it is the same if I come by myself! You can sit down first, let's sit down and talk!"
The corners of Cheng Lili's mouth twitched a little when she heard this, do you know that this is in someone else's office? Should Zhou Zhiwei say that he should sit down first? Who is the master and who is the guest? Do you know that this is a bit noisy? Just one sentence made Cheng Lili have a much worse sense of objectivity about the Shanghai in front of her. Then she looked at Zhou Zhiwei, who hurriedly concealed his unhappiness and smiled at her.
A few people sat down, and after Zhou Zhiwei's assistant came in and poured water out, Director Zhang spoke first, he said: "Mr. Zhou, Miss Cheng, our TV station sent me over this time, first, to meet with you, get to know each other, and facilitate future contact." In addition, let me come over to inspect your filming situation, you also know that we are a satellite TV station with relatively high ratings in China after all!"
Zhou Zhiwei didn't speak, Cheng Lili had no choice but to reply: "Oh, it's no problem to go into the shed to visit the class, but it's a little late today, or tomorrow, tomorrow morning, can you?"
Director Zhang said: "Not so fast! Tomorrow morning will do! Also, we haven't had any communication before, and we have a convention on Shanghai TV, that is, we need to get the first ten episodes or more of the film a month in advance before the film, so that it is convenient for us to cut the film and make a preview, you can take a look。。。。。。 Do you have any questions about this?"
Although Cheng Lili had not actually participated in the filming and production of TV series before, she intuitively thought that Director Zhang's words were problematic. So she smiled and said, "Shouldn't the film be edited by our director?"
Director Zhang immediately glanced at Cheng Lili with great reservation, and it could be seen that he was very patient, and then said: "The director may know the film, but our TV station knows where the audience is concerned, so the film we cut out has a better effect!"
Seeing that Cheng Lili still had to argue, she immediately said: "This is our station's regulations, and the companies we have cooperated with all know it, you should be able to get ten episodes by then!"
Cheng Lili immediately made eye contact with Zhou Zhiwei after listening to his words, and Zhou Zhiwei was also looking for her sight. This shows that both of them have some thoughts about this issue of Director Zhang.
No one asks such questions, what should be able to be obtained? So in the eyes of Director Zhang or Shanghai TV, they can't shoot ten episodes with a month before the schedule?
But Zhou Zhiwei can't answer this question, because he doesn't know the progress of filming, Cheng Lili can answer, but she is thinking about how to answer, in fact, whether to tell the truth or lie.
Soon, she decided to tell the truth more exaggeratedly. So Director Zhang heard Cheng Lili reply with a smile: "How can it not be filmed? We have already filmed the twelfth episode today!" Of course, this is not the case, they were filmed in a mixed manner, if you count the total progress, they are actually filming the sixth episode today.
Director Zhang didn't expect to hear Cheng Lili's answer, and was a little stunned, but fortunately, he quickly reacted and said, "So fast, haven't you only started filming for less than ten days?"
Cheng Lili replied easily: "Well, we held a press conference for less than ten days, but we also filmed some before this! And our director is very progressive, so there is absolutely no problem in providing ten episodes to you at that time!"
Director Zhang smiled a little reluctantly and said, "That's good, that's good, then we'll rest assured!" Although he said so, Cheng Lili and Zhou Zhiwei both deeply felt that he seemed to be very disappointed, as if they hoped that they would not be able to provide ten episodes at that point in time. Why is that? Unfortunately, no one knows the answer yet.
Director Zhang didn't continue to stay in Zhou Zhiwei's office, and after a while, he said that he was coming on a long-distance flight, and he was a little tired, so he did this today, and came over early tomorrow morning to watch the shooting.
Sending him away, Cheng Lili did not leave immediately, but discussed with Zhou Zhiwei the purpose of Director Zhang or Shanghai TV. But I couldn't understand how to discuss it, Cheng Lili suddenly said: "Can you show me the contract that Gao Qing signed at that time and the supplementary agreement you signed with them later? ”
Zhou Zhiwei raised his eyebrows and said, "MD, I don't want to say it earlier! We have spent so much effort and material resources to do it, they don't want it?" But he quickly regained his composure, thought about it and said, "Don't want it? Why? If the ratings are not good, they don't have to pay, what's the harm to them?"
Cheng Lili said helplessly: "So I don't want you to show me the contract!
Zhou Zhiwei immediately asked the assistant to transfer out the contract and the supplementary agreement, and the two of them looked at it separately. In other words, this contract is very unfriendly to the producer, that is, Cheng Lili, and they have many more obligations than rights. Cheng Lili had the urge to pick it up and tear it up when she watched it for the first time, and she scolded Gao Qing in her heart, how much do you want people to broadcast this film?
But looking at it, Cheng Lili suddenly snorted "oops", Zhou Zhiwei hurriedly raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
