Chapter 17: Start a company
When the two returned to the table, there was another person in the room.
Chen Baixiang pulled Li Xuechu over and introduced: "Chu Zai, introduce you to a big singer, this is ......"
"Brother Tan Yonglin, I know." Li Xuechu said directly without waiting for an introduction.
In the eighties of the nineteenth century, the Xiangjiang music scene was almost the era of Tan and Zhang's hegemony, and there were also many big-name singers during this period, such as Chen Baiqiang, Huang Jiaju, Zhang Xueyou, etc., but in this era, these two are undoubtedly the most popular.
"This is Li Xuechu, Chu Zai. Don't look at people who are small, they are big writers. Chen Baixiang began to praise Li Xuechu again.
"Hehe, hello Chuzai." The two shook hands and knew each other.
The scene began to be lively again. The girl may be a fan of Tan Yonglin, and her eyes are rippling when she looks at Principal Tan (who is not called this yet), if she doesn't have a pen and paper on hand, she will probably ask him for an autograph. After a few more drinks, Wang Jin once again puffed up his tongue and began to sell film investment to Tan Yonglin. However, Tan Yonglin didn't seem to be interested in this matter, but in the end, he reluctantly agreed to invest 50,000 yuan, bringing the budget to 450,000.
The time slowly passed nine o'clock in the evening, after all, Wang Jin still had a wife and children at home, and a strict father, so he drank two more glasses and said goodbye first. Li Xuechu also said goodbye together, and by the way, he pulled away the round-faced girl who was already a little unable to sit still. Chen Baixiang and the others smiled and scolded Wang Jin for a few words, but they didn't pay attention to it, and drank and played by themselves. Now this point is the real beginning of nightclubs for many people, and it is estimated that they will not be able to disperse in a few hours.
"Whew, it's still fun here, but it's a pity that when you get married, you can't enjoy it as much as before."
"You're a good man, then?" Li Xuechu despised him, maybe the fat man is barely going now, but it will be different when he becomes a director in the future, at least Li Xuechu has heard a lot of rumors in later generations, at least in terms of women, this product has never been clean, and the private life behind the glamour of the entertainment industry is also quite erosive, and he made a decision in his heart that he can't find a wife in the entertainment industry in the future.
"Of course!" Wang Jin was not ashamed.
Out of the nightclub, the girl asked the front desk for a pen and paper, wrote her name and phone, and handed it to Li Xuechu shyly, and then went their separate ways. Looking at her clothes, she looks like a middle-class girl who came out to find freshness, and she is probably going home at this time. Li Xuechu didn't care about Wang Jin's ridicule, and the two took a taxi back home.
When he returned home, Wang Jin didn't dare to go upstairs directly, so he went to Li Xuechu's room to wash his face, drank a few cups of tea, and planned to go up again when the wine was almost slow.
"Fatty, seeing that some of them are not very willing to invest, it is not suitable for you to deadlift people into the gang, right?" Li Xuechu still felt awkward when he thought about it.
"Hehe, I'm not happy with the singer, anyway, the money is about the same, just don't rush him when the time comes, if you're not happy, you won't send it over, anyway, it's not much worse, can't find someone else." Wang Fatzi didn't care too much, and he could see that although he hadn't become famous yet, he could be regarded as having a wide range of friends.
"By the way, come with me tomorrow and register the company."
"No problem, come up and call me tomorrow, it's a matter of the morning." The fat man didn't refuse......
"Whew, I'm tired." Wang Jin complained.
The two of them ran around to help Li Xuechu register the company, and after watching a few things, they also ran for a morning. It is not very troublesome to register a company in Xiangjiang, find a registered business company, hand in your identity materials, fill in a few documents in a mess, and the cost of registering a company is only more than 1,000 Xiangjiang coins, which is cheaper than originally imagined.
In terms of the company's name, Li Xuechu directly copied Spielberg's company name without bothering his brains: "Oriental DreamWorks" added the word Oriental. He also planned to copy the company's logo directly, and Wang Jin also praised the logo of the villain sitting on the moon and fishing, and praised Xiao Li a few words, and Li Xuechu was cheeky enough to accept all the orders. However, Logo Li Xuechu didn't plan to make it into an animation mode for the time being, but directly asked Wang Jin to help find a color picture to draw comics for private work, and use it directly, and 300 Xiangjiang coins can be done. The specific will be slowly improved in the future, after all, it is still a leather bag company.
One morning, all live. The company license will have to wait a week to get it, but it can't delay the filming of the movie.
With the company, the novel can be written and delivered in two days. The investment was also done, Tan Yonglin didn't forget about it after drinking as they thought, and the next day he sent the money to Wang Jin's account as promised. With the script and investment, the latter two began to get busy.
Wang Fatzi invested unusual enthusiasm in his debut work, and pulled Li Xuechu to change the novel into a script (Li Xuechu finally saw what the script was like, and it can be regarded as practicing it once under the guidance of Wang Fatzi), and then drew a simple storyboard script, and then he was busy looking for the crew to find actors, photographers, gaffers, and assistant directors...... Li Xuechu also mixed up the scene notes, worked for a week, and finished the preliminary preparations.
During this period, Li Xuechu saw the relationship and status of Wang Fatzi or his father Wang Tianlin, and the crew members of Shaw Brothers or Wireless didn't have much trouble pulling up, most of them agreed to the conditions for settlement after the salary, and the assistant director who was brought in still had a great background, and the famous director of Xiangjiang Du Qifeng in later generations. Only the protagonist is the most difficult to get it, and Li Xuechu, the protagonist of Wang Jinxuan, was not very satisfied, and choosing this role was the only thing Li Xuechu interfered with Wang Jin. The original work of the king of Western comedy, if he could, Li Xuechu wanted to let his favorite Zhou Xingxing play it, but at this time, the star master didn't know where he was in the pimple, and he had never entered the artist training class or acted, so he had to give up.
Li Xuechu set his eyes on his brother again. Brother is a relatively well-rounded actor, and he is also quite talented in acting in comedy, and Li Xuechu has watched a few of them. It's just that the brother's aura is too strong, and the memorable ones in later generations are still the little horse brother with a toothpick in his mouth and the gambling god with a big back.
"Are you sure?" Wang Jin asked with a strange expression. Although my brother has not publicly put on the title of "box office **" yet, he has already pounced on several movies. And this year, I just played Shanghai Tang, it is the time of popularity, there is no shortage of people to make movies, according to Wang Jin, it is 'high price and high quality', at least now the fat man is really not very optimistic about him, and there is no enthusiasm for him to play the God of Gamblers in later generations.
According to the "historical process", Wang Fatzi is really not mistaken, my brother has been fighting on the street until eighty-six years, and only then did he rely on Brother Xiaoma's salted fish to turn over and become a god in one fell swoop. With such a long history of hitting the streets, he really has to endure it.
"Sure," Li Xuechu said, but after thinking about it, he added, "If he wants to ask too high, you can watch it." "After all, the fund is only 450,000 yuan, and we still have to pay attention to balance.
In the meantime, Li Xuechu also went to Xinyi City to negotiate the investment of the little ghost, the investment of the little ghost is set at 1.8 million, and Li Xuechu's script participation can only account for one-ninth, which makes him feel a little depressed, but think about the box office as long as it can reach more than 10 million, he can earn four or five hundred thousand, (more than half will be taken away by the theater chain and the industry), and there will be overseas box office in the future. I am still quite optimistic about this family comedy suitable for all ages, although it is unlikely to reach the total box office of more than 500 million US dollars in later generations. Think about it, and see it.
Another thing is that Li Xuechu unexpectedly appeared that the director of the ghost was actually Wu Yushen, which Li Xuechu was deeply stunned, it turned out that the master of violent aesthetics in later generations is now a well-known comedy director in Xiangjiang, which makes Xiao Li feel a little messy.
Xinyicheng proposed an intention to woo Li Xuechu, but was declined by Xiao Li. Mecca and others didn't keep it anymore.,Just said that if there is a new work, you can continue to cooperate.,This Li Xuechu has no opinion.,The next few years will be the era of competition between New Art City and Golden Harvest.,Multiple friends and many roads.。
Coming out of the new art city, Li Xuechu was quite emotional. This company, which collapsed after a while, is really a big regret for the Xiangjiang film industry, and it also reminds me that if my company wants to become bigger in the future, we must pay attention to the issue of standardizing the balance of salaries, otherwise it is better to be a leather bag company all the time, saving trouble and worry.
Out of the new art city, Li Xuechu made another call to the noon code, and learned that the preliminary work for the hangover had been completed, and the crew started filming yesterday. Li Xuechu was stunned again, and had an intuitive understanding of the efficiency of the Hong family class, you must know that people are also preparing the crew of "Ghost Fighting Ghosts", and there is no problem with the double-line start, so it can be seen that the Hong family class is desperate and has enough manpower, no wonder people can make several movies a year, and there is no shortage of people but lack of scripts......
After more than ten days of busy work, the crew was formed.
Brother finally came, and 100,000 yuan was done, which was cheaper than Li Xuechu had imagined. Of course, this may also be a friendship price, Brother Xiangjiang has always been a star who can be a person, but this also makes Li Xuechu have some idea of the star salary at this time. It seems that at this time, it is still Chen Long and Xu Guangjie who can get a salary of more than one million, and the salaries of other stars are really not much, far less exaggerated than in later generations.
picked a good day, bought a pig's head and a few strings of firecrackers, and held a ceremony to worship God. Wang Jin also invited two unknown tabloid newspapers to interview him, take pictures, talk about conversations, and blow about the prospects of the film. Of course, the focus is still on "Xu Wenqiang". After stuffing the two editors with 300 yuan each, the matter was over, and the movie promotion was touted by the two tabloids.
More than 30 people bowed to the red pig's head a few times, each stuffed two coins on the offering table, and the firecrackers were finished, and it was over!
As soon as he was ready, Wang Fatzi wore a director's hat that he found out of nowhere, and yelled: "It's on!" ”
Li Xuechu followed and shouted, "anetbsp; "First Shot, First Shot"
"Slap" Li Xuechu took a field card and slapped it heavily.
