Su Li was also a little surprised when he received Er Dongsheng's call. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

He himself and Er Dongsheng do not have a deep friendship, and the two of them have worked together in "Eavesdropping" and have discussed many issues. But this kind of discussion is also superficial, they don't have a deep friendship, and suddenly received a phone call from Er Dongsheng, which made Su Li a little surprised.

However, he answered the phone anyway and continued, "Hello, Mr. Er...... Do you have anything to do with me? ”

Er Dongsheng said on the other end of the phone: "That's right, I'm going to make a new movie...... I don't know if you've seen a movie I used to produce called "The King of Guns". ”

"I see!" Su Li instantly flashed a lot of thoughts in his heart, although Er Dongsheng just asked him if he had seen his movie called "The King of Guns", Su Li was already like a mirror. He knew that among the events provided by the system, "The King of Guns" was a movie with a box office of over 100 million, this movie was made by Er Dongsheng himself, and the main actors were Louis Koo and Li Bingbing, which won a lot of box office, and also killed for a while.

Originally, this movie was going to be started in 2009, but now it seems that Er Dongsheng has been influenced by Su Li, a little butterfly who only knows what will happen in the future, and began to prepare to make "The King of Guns" in advance. It's just that Su Li doesn't quite understand what he wants to do with himself, and this is something he hasn't been able to push out himself.

Therefore, Su Li was still waiting for Er Dongsheng's answer. He said into the phone, "I've seen this movie!" I just don't know what Mr. Er's relationship with that movie is you're looking for me? ”

Er Dongsheng did not sell Guanzi, he had no mood to sell Guanzi at all, and there was no need to sell Guanzi. He replied directly: "Yes, I found some problems in the creation of the script...... I don't think I can make this book alone, so I want to invite you to be the screenwriter of this movie, and I can provide a certain box office dividend, I hope you can consider it. ”

When Er Dongsheng said this, he was also worried that Su Li would not agree.

After all, when Mak Zhaohui suggested that he could use Su Li as a screenwriter, he immediately agreed, and thought that Mak Zhaohui had helped him solve a big problem - Su Li's screenwriting ability cannot be blamed and picky. "Supermarket" has completely verified his ability in screenwriting and proved his genius.

Another consideration is Su Li's fame, Su Li's fame is getting bigger and bigger, "Eavesdropping", "Nightclub". Supermarket" coupled with a plan of 'Olympic Rush Forward', Su Li instantly became a hot and powerful artist in the eyes of people. Many people are full of hope for Su Li, and as long as it is a movie edited by him, everyone doesn't mind going to see it.

Su Li's fame will definitely bring more box office revenue to this movie, and his screenwriting ability can also make this movie well, so, all things considered, as long as Su Li can agree to this matter, it will be quite a surprise for Er Dongsheng.

When Su Li heard Er Dongsheng's explanation, he understood why he deliberately called him, it turned out that he wanted him to be a screenwriter!

There is no problem at all with being the screenwriter of this movie, anyway, his system can mass-produce movie scripts, and he doesn't have to be too low-key, and one more script won't make people doubt too much. So, he quickly replied: "Okay, Mr. Er, I will try my best to make this book well...... Please send me specific requirements, story backgrounds, etc. ”

"It's great if you say yes!" There was a faint excitement in Er Dongsheng's tone, and then he said, "I will send you the specific requirements soon." ”

Su Li suddenly asked at this time, "Mr. Er, when do you plan to start filming this movie?" ”

Er Dongsheng and others are often doers, and many things are as fast as possible, he said: "If the script supports it, I plan to start filming directly in July!" If possible, I'd even like to be a little earlier. ”

"Oh, that's right......" Su Li thought on the other end of the phone, and then he asked, "So, how much investment does this movie need?" ”

"About 40 million! I haven't got it all yet, but I'm sure I'll be able to gather all 40 million soon, and I'm confident that I'm still there. ”

"Okay...... If my script can be passed in your hands, we at 'Li Guang Entertainment Company' can invest 5 million! Su Li suddenly threw out such a thing, and suddenly, Er Dongsheng on the other end of the phone seemed to be stunned by happiness.

In fact, it is not easy for a director or producer to make a movie.

Unlike directors like Zhang Yimou, who have basically never made investors lose money, it is definitely not that simple for other directors to make movies.

They have to look for investors, and the problem of finding investors is the biggest problem of making a movie. For ordinary directors, investors don't dare to believe in their strength, so they are always left and right in terms of investment, and everyone is very unhappy to pay money, in front of the director, the investor is the uncle...... Because of this, there will be some tacit understanding between some actors who are in urgent need of a leading role, investors with huge sums of money, and directors who want to make movies...... In one case, a rule is likely to occur.

Therefore, it is definitely not easy to attract investment.

Su Li gave him five million as soon as he opened his mouth, which made Er Dongsheng overjoyed, and while being carried away by happiness, he also began to admire Su Li's courage.

Su Li knew that this "King of Guns" would make money, so he didn't mind putting some of the company's money into this movie.

He didn't just put his money in to make money, but most importantly, now the money in his company was always in the bank and it was about to die! It's definitely not a good thing for a company to always owe money, but it's not a good thing for a company to not be able to spend its money either.

Su Li's biggest purpose in investing money is only to spend the money in the company, not to mention that he can make some money, and he himself can't use this money for the time being. Therefore, Su Li made such a decision, which made Er Dongsheng a lot happier, he thought that Su Li was just a stunned young man with courage, and felt that the money in his hand came too quickly, and he wanted to spend it quickly.

In fact, Su Li has his own plans, he wants to spend his money as soon as possible, and this "King of Guns" will make money, so it's nothing to invest in them.

However, the most important thing now is to make the script and let him read it first, otherwise everything is just floating clouds.

After hanging up the phone, Er Dongsheng was the happiest today, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly - as for the quality problem, Su Li's production basically means high quality and high intelligence, and he can rest easy.

However, after telling Zhong Dajun about this matter, this guy complained a little, he thought that Su Li was a little sloppy. However, he can only complain a little about such complaints, and he can't say anything else. After all, those are Su Li's money, and he can do whatever he wants.

Su Li heard Zhong Dajun with a slightly complaining tone, but he didn't think so, to be honest, Zhong Dajun's tone showed that he was more concerned about this company, and didn't want something to happen that might damage the company's interests. If he just sulked, Su Li even suspected that there would be something wrong with him.

Anyway, Su Li's decision was also decided, and he didn't have much to explain, so he directly told Zhong Dajun that in his eyes, this "King of Guns" would make money.

Zhong Dajun heard Su Li say that from his point of view, he originally felt unreliable, but after thinking about it carefully, Su Li's vision was really not something he could question!

So, Zhong Dajun said, "Okay, according to your ideas...... I'm sure you'll be as sharp-eyed as before this time,......" Zhong Dajun and Su Li exchanged pleasantries for a while before hanging up the phone.

Now Su Li's company has just been established, like a blank sheet of paper, without a word, many things need to be created slowly step by step. Zhong Dajun is the person Su Li relies on the most.

After hanging up the two calls, Su Li turned around and resumed the next shooting.

Now the interior shooting part of "Love Apartment" is nearly halfway through.

However, maybe this mobile phone won't let Su Li stop today, he accidentally put the phone in his pocket in the morning, and now there are really a lot of calls looking for him. He just hung up the call with Zhong Dajun, and the next person had already called, and Su Li connected, it turned out to be Mai Zhaohui.

"Old Mai...... What's up? There are a lot of phone calls today, and Director Er Dongsheng has already looked for me once......"

"I know he's looking for you." Mai Zhaohui's tone was a little anxious: "Because I asked him to come to you, he just said that the script process of his new movie is in a predicament, I asked him to come to you, presumably you have some way." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Su Li figured out what had just happened, and then smiled and said to the microphone: "That's good!" I've promised him, and I've agreed to invest five million in his films. ”

"Huh?!" Mai Zhaohui said a little angrily at this time: "I'm still a step late......"

"What? Why are you a step late? Su Li was a little confused: "Since you introduced Director Er Dongsheng to me, of course you want me to agree to him, do you have any other plans?" ”

Mai Zhaohui sighed: "I just started to regret it after I introduced you to him, it takes a lot of energy for a person to write a movie script, and you also promised to give me the script of "Eavesdropping 2", when the two movies come at the same time, where did you get so much energy?" ”

"Uh......" Su Li was a little stunned, but he didn't expect Mai Zhaohui to regret it because of this incident, Su Li was secretly a little funny in his heart, and said: "No, Lao Mai, I have already written the script of "Eavesdropping 2", I can hand it over to you!" ”

"Ah, it's already written!" Mai Zhaohui immediately became ecstatic, and his worries had been completely put aside just now: "Then hurry up and give it to me, you kid, don't give it to me sooner if it's already written, you don't know that I've been worried about this script for the past few days." ”

Indeed, Mak Zhaohui likes the movie "Eavesdropping" quite a lot, and is also very interested in Su Li's possible sequel, so he doesn't want Su Li to send the script of "Eavesdropping 2" to him as soon as possible. Hearing Su Li say that he had finished writing the script, he was pleasantly surprised for a while, and after the surprise, he complained, complaining about how Su Li could not hand over the script to himself as soon as possible.

Su Li didn't really want to arouse everyone's suspicions, now there was enough aura on him, if he wrote the script quite quickly, if he just said that he would finish the script, then there would definitely be some people who doubted him.

Of course, this suspicion does not mean that they suspect that there is a plug-in in Su Li's body, they will never suspect it, the thing everyone suspects is that Su Li may have a gunman, and the person who really wrote those scripts is not himself, but his gunman.

In order to avoid those troubles, Su Li has always needed to keep a low profile, at least a little more in the speed of making the script, otherwise there will be too much trouble at that time.

The script of "Eavesdropping 2" has not been changed by himself, and he is ready to hand over the problems in him, such as those that involve finance, to be too professional, so this script is already in Su Li's hands, including electronic and printed versions.

Because of the reason mentioned above, he has not given his script to Mak Zhaohui, if Mak Zhaohui hadn't come up to talk to him about that question today, he would have waited until the end of June to give him the script. But now, in order not to cause Mai Zhaohui any random movies, irresponsible and other thoughts, Su Li had to tell this matter in advance.

Although Mai Zhaohui was a little puzzled by what Su Li said now, he was more excited, he had been waiting for the book of "Eavesdropping 2" for a long time.

Of course, Su Li wanted to clarify Mai Zhaohui's questioning, so he hurriedly said: "That's the case, Lao Mai, in fact, I wrote this script a week ago, and then revised it three times, and the basic appearance has now been fully shaped...... I only finalized the third draft last night, and if you don't ask me if I'm going to revise it, I'll send you the electronic version now, and you can see if you have any comments, and if you have any comments, put them forward, and we'll discuss them together. ”

"That's good, that's good." Mai Zhaohui said: "Actually, I am very relieved that you made the book, and I have nothing to point ......out" Mai Zhaohui smiled dryly: "However, if I can go through it first, let's discuss it together, and we will be easier to control when shooting." ”

Su Li snorted, and then Mai Zhaohui suddenly remembered a question, and then said as if talking to himself: "Huh...... By the way, Lao Er said this time that he was going to make a new movie...... Won't he shoot "Eavesdropping" with us? ”
