Chapter 50: Ready
When Gu Wenwu heard this, he smiled but said nothing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info He naturally knew what He Qing meant, it was nothing more than to persuade him to make another record, so that everyone would make money and everyone would be happy.
"What, doesn't Mr. Gu agree with me?" He Qing saw that Gu Wenwu didn't speak, and thought that he had a different opinion.
Gu Wenwu hurriedly shook his head and said: "Of course not, what Manager He said is very reasonable, now that the record market is booming, making records is indeed very profitable, and it is not difficult to make another record now, but people still have to pursue a little bit in this world, and they can't just live for money, in that case, they will lose themselves." ā
Gu Wenwu said this, He Qing was speechless. Only then did he remember that the mature and sophisticated person in front of him was in his twenties. This age is the period when people are most motivated and most enthusiastic about their dreams.
Seeing that there was no hope of convincing Gu Wenwu, He Qing did not continue the topic, and chatted with Gu Wenwu about some recent things in the entertainment industry. On the other side, Wang Shicong was also quickly flipping through the script of "The Hangover". He is no stranger to scripts who have participated in the production of many film and television dramas, and after reading them once, he can roughly judge the quality of a script.
For the evaluation of the script, Wang Shicong has his own set of standards. First of all, the main line is clear, and the logic is clear. Movies are storytelling, if there is no main line, tell a paragraph here and there, then it is not called storytelling, it is a talk show. If the logic is confused, then there will be inconsistencies and a sense of disobedience. Who will go to see such a movie.
Secondly, the plot is important. A good movie, the plot can't be old-fashioned, can't be bloody, can't let the audience guess the back when they watch the front, there must be suspense, there must be twists and turns, so as to catch the audience and make them interested in watching it.
Finally, there's the subject matter. The subject matter should be novel, don't follow the crowd, and write a work that follows the trend when you see a certain film that is popular. You don't get tired of writing, and the audience is tired of watching it.
Wang Shicong quickly read the entire script. The whole script is very much in line with his three criteria for selecting scripts, this is one of the best scripts he has seen in recent years, if such a script is not invested, Wang Shicong can't forgive himself.
Seeing Wang Shicong closing the script and coming over, Gu Wenwu smiled and said, "How is it, Mr. Wang, are you still satisfied with the script?" ā
"Satisfied, very satisfied, I now understand why Mr. Gu is so confident, he has such a good script, and what kind of investor do he need." Wang Shicong said with a smile.
"Haha, Mr. Wang really won the award, as long as Mr. Wang is satisfied with the script." Gu Wenwu said with a smile.
"Okay, then let's talk about investment." Wang Shicong said.
......
Once both parties agree on the idea of investing in this kind of thing, then the negotiation will naturally go smoothly. Soon the details of the contract were negotiated. When Gu Wenwu and Wang Shicong each signed their names on the last page of the contract, it also meant that Wanda Entertainment's investment in "The Hangover" was officially implemented.
The final investment amount of Wanda Entertainment is 500,000 summer yuan, and the corresponding proportion of the investment and personnel investment will be shared.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Wang Shicong smiled and stretched out his hand.
"It's a pleasure to work with." Gu Wenwu also smiled and held Wang Shicong tightly.
"The recruitment of actors and crew members will trouble Mr. Wang." Before leaving, Gu Wenwu said.
"Don't worry, it's very simple, just wait for my good news." Wang Shicong said.
Now that Wanda Entertainment has become an investor, Gu Wenwu is also willing to hand over these troubles to Wanda Entertainment. After all, the other party is a professional entertainment company, and it is much faster and simpler to do these things than him.
The matter was negotiated, and Gu Wenwu also went home relaxed. The people of Wanda Entertainment are also very efficient, and as soon as the contract was signed, they began to send invitations to the two people that Gu Wenwu fancied. At the same time, the preparation of the crew also began. It is equivalent to saying that after Wanda Entertainment invested, it took over Gu Wenwu's affairs, so that Gu Wenwu only needed to shoot his drama well.
This also means that Gu Wenwu doesn't have to do anything after he returns home, just wait for the news of Wanda Entertainment.
Star Media Agency. Xu Zheng was called to the company by his agent Xiang Yu. He was resting at home without an appointment, and suddenly received a call from his agent, asking him to come to the company, saying that he had something to discuss.
"What's the matter, Brother Xiang, call me over in such a hurry." Xu Zheng asked. Xiangyu didn't say anything specific on the phone, so he could only go to the company and ask again.
"There's a movie that wants you to play the leading role." Sangwoo said.
"What, the movie, is it really fake?" Xu Zheng said in surprise.
"Of course it's true, just now someone from Wanda Entertainment called and said that the director of the movie especially wants you to play this role, and the script has been sent, so you can decide whether to play it or not." Sangwoo said.
"Then let me read the script first." Xu Zheng said.
"Here you go, I feel this is a good opportunity, Xu Zheng, think about it yourself, you are the actor as soon as you come up, this kind of treatment is rare, after all, you don't have much appeal on the big screen now." Sang-woo handed the script to Xu Zheng and said.
"I understand." Xu Zheng nodded, saying that he would think about it. He has already made a decision in his heart, as long as the script is not bad, he will accept it.
After all, it is still difficult to move from the small screen to the big screen. What's more, it is still the treatment of the actor from the beginning, which shows that people are full of sincerity.
The same situation happened with Xinchi Media. is different from Xu Zheng, Lin Zhicong is now just a newcomer who has just emerged in the film and television industry. suddenly dropped a movie invitation from the sky, and he was also the leading actor, and he and his agent were immediately excited.
Lin Zhicong in this world is different from the earth. In this world, he has no experience as a screenwriter, and he has only participated in one "Shaolin Football" since his debut. Although he has gained a lot of popularity with this popular work, he still belongs to the third-tier actors. And a third-tier actor naturally has very few resources in the company. Therefore, suddenly a movie protagonist fell from the sky, how could he not be excited.
For third-tier actors, whether the script is good or not is not the key, the key is to have a script. Therefore, soon after Wanda Entertainment issued an invitation, Xinchi Media had already given a reply, saying that Lin Zhicong was willing to participate in "The Hangover".
And the next day, Xu Zheng, who finished reading the script of "The Hangover" overnight, also replied. In the face of such a high-quality script, if he hesitates any longer, he will really be a little ignorant. At this point, the "Hangover" trio has been collected. They are Huang Bo as the teacher Qin Shou, Xu Zheng as the dentist Jiang Cai, and Lin Zhicong as the dead house Luo Ben. As for the other supporting roles, Gu Wenwu doesn't care about it, just leave it to the people of Wanda Entertainment. Anyway, they are very happy to do this kind of thing, this is a good opportunity to train their own actors, can't this be thanks to Gu Wenwu.
The recruitment of the supporting cast was also completed in the next few days. At this point, all the preparatory work for the movie has been completed, and Gu Wenwu, who has been idle at home for a few days, was also a little excited after receiving a call from Wang Shicong.
It's finally about to start, and I can't wait.
There's a lot going on today, and that's it.
