Chapter Ninety-Nine: Two Scripts

Zhou Xingchi left the office of the Shogunate City with full of excitement, as the so-called keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon, his efforts finally got an opportunity, can he not be happy, can he not be excited.

As soon as Zhou Xingchi left on the front foot, Lin Yongqi came to the office of the Shogun, he was called by the secretary of the Shogun, and there were some things that the Shoguncheng needed to discuss with him.

"Ah Cheng, you look for me" As soon as Lin Yongqi entered the office, he saw Mu Cheng sitting quietly behind his desk

"Yes, Uncle Qi, the "God of Gamblers" we cooperated with Yongsheng is now almost completed, and after the results of the review come out, we can start arranging the release schedule, I hope the company and Yongsheng will try their best to do a good job in publicity, now it is the craze of Fa Ge's fire, we should take advantage of the victory and chase after it, and use this film to fight a beautiful victory." After Mucheng saw Lin Yongqi come in, he first beckoned him to sit down, and then said directly.

"Well, don't worry about this, the company's publicity department has already started to act, and now who in Hong Kong doesn't know that the film "God of Gamblers" is about to be released, everyone is waiting." Lin Yongqi nodded, he naturally had already arranged for the operation of the company.

"That's good, by the way, is there any progress in the company's film investment" Now that the promotion of "God of Gamblers" has been arranged, Makujo remembered to ask about the company's situation.

Brilliant Company now has a lot of funds in its account, just before a "True Colors of Heroes" made Brilliant make a lot of money, in addition to the box office of "The True Story of the Crazy Guy" is a little lower, and now the box office of "Heavenly Love" has just been released has also exceeded 20 million, although it is only in the early 20 million, but this is also a big achievement. Today's Hong Kong movie box office is over 10 million, even if it is good, there are not many that can exceed 20 million, and the investment cost of this film is not high, and the profit margin is relatively large, this is only the local box office in Hong Kong, if it is also released in other places later, it will make more money.

As mentioned above, the several films invested by Brilliant Reading Power have brought huge income to Brilliant, and there is also a "Dao Ma Dan" in cooperation with Xu Ke's studio, which also narrowly crossed the 20 million mark, and half of the profits also belong to Brilliant Company. Now the "God of Gamblers" cooperated with Yongsheng is also about to be released, but this film is known to the curtain city, it is definitely a money-absorbing weapon, so Brilliant Company is really not bad for money at present.

Lin Yongqi seemed to have known that Makucheng would ask yes, and returned without thinking about it: "There is no big gain at present, but I have increased capital investment, and the external publicity company will take out 50 million yuan this year to invest in suitable films, and I think there will be many people who are willing to cooperate." ”

In fact, there are many people who want to get the capital investment of Brilliant Company, but the investment requirements of Brilliant are relatively strict, and it is not a good script, and Brilliant will not invest. After all, Brilliant takes the money to invest, it doesn't mean that Brilliant is wronged, I will give it if you come, regardless of throwing money out, it is a head show to amuse people will do it, Brilliant Company is not stupid.

At the beginning, Makucheng proposed foreign investment, mainly to discover good scripts, discover talents, and expand financial routes for the company. Just like those newspapers that accept submissions, they must go through the company's internal review and get approval before they can be serialized, and if a work is successful, it will greatly promote the company's fame and fortune.

Foreign investment is a way to cast a wide net, it seems that some still need to take the initiative to fight for it, after hearing Lin Yongqi's answer, Makujo pondered for a while and said: "In terms of investment, as long as you take a good pass, take your time." This matter needs to be sent to the door by others, and we can also take the initiative to find it and dig it up. The company's screenwriters, directors, etc. are still relatively scarce, Uncle Qi, you can publicize more and let people find them, as long as we are talented, we will not refuse, as long as a few of these people can be successful, it will be profitable for the company. ”

Lin Yongqi nodded, he also knew what Makujo said, just like many of the company's managers were recruited from other places, and now they are doing very well.

"By the way, Ah Cheng, do you have any plans next?" After listening to Makucheng's words, Lin Yongqi asked what he thought. Now the work at hand of the brilliant company is almost busy, and the few movies produced are released, but the "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the Shokucheng is still in the post-production stage, and he also understands that there is still a period of time before it is all completed.

Makujo was also prepared, and took out the script he brought from home in the morning from the drawer and put it in front of Lin Yongqi. "These are the two scripts I wrote, which will be the starring work of our company in the second half of the year."

Lin Yongqi looked at the script on the table happily, this guy really had a plan.

"This is a gambling film, but it is not the same as Wang Jing's previous "God of Gamblers", there is an extra kind of extraordinary thing in it." Makujo pointed to the script on the surface, then opened it aside, pointed to the next one and continued: "This one is a pure comedy of joy, about a five or six-year-old child who outwits two stupid thieves at home alone"

"God of Gamblers" has not been released yet, this guy actually prepared the script of another gambling film, when he heard all the gambling films in the Shogun, Lin Yongqi first thought of the upcoming "God of Gamblers". As for another comedy script, he didn't think it was unusual, the first film Makuro made was a comedy, and it was a hit at the box office, so it wouldn't be bad if I thought about it.

Lin Yongqi glanced at it a few times, then withdrew his gaze and looked at the shogun.

"Then who are you going to let shoot, and who will act?"

"That gambling film, I plan to let Ah Xing play it, he has been here for a while, and I have promised to give him a chance a long time ago. I haven't thought about the director's question, I don't know if Wang Jing is willing or not. Makujo leaned back in his seat and said lightly. As for that comedy, the protagonist has to be looked for carefully, it is not easy for children of this age to play it, as for the rest, it is easy to say, Fa Ge and Honggu have agreed to star in it, and I have also thought about the candidates for the two stupid thieves, one is Ah Xing, and the other is Wu Mengda, I haven't figured out whether to shoot it myself if the director's words are not clear. ”

"What about Director Du and Director Wu?" Lin Yongqi first nodded when he heard what Makuro said, and then asked with a little confusion. Wu Yusen has been in a rest stage since filming "The True Color of Heroes", and Du Qifeng is now in the "Heavenly Love" is also down, and he is also free.

To be honest, it wasn't Lin Yongqi who just mentioned it, Makujo really forgot about those two guys, Makujo pondered for a moment and then nodded and said, "That's it, you inform them to all go back to the company tomorrow morning, and let's have a meeting to discuss it." ”

Makujo also knew that he couldn't favor one over the other, so he finally thought of a compromise solution, and when the meeting came, everyone was there, and he took out the two scripts and let them choose for themselves.

"Okay," Lin Yongqi also nodded in agreement.

The two chatted again, Lin Yongqi got up and went back to run errands, and Makujo got up and walked out after staying in the office for a while.

At noon, he and Zhou Huimin made an appointment to eat together, and now the time is almost up, he has to hurry over, otherwise he will be late. (To be continued.) )
