Zhao Wei and Li Donglai don't have any personal relationship, but they are both mixed in the same circle, and they have met each other a few times. (Please search for the fastest novel website!) She knew that Li Donglai was a busy person, and she was not polite, so she ran to the topic: "I am here to attract investment this time." Didn't I take the graduate school of directing before, our class is about to graduate, and every student has to make a movie as a graduation work. Thinking that you have a lot of money, you are not welcome to come over to attract investment. ”

"Disrespectful and disrespectful, I am already a graduate student of directing. I haven't read anything, so I really don't know about your graduation project. Did you bring the script and want to drink something, coffee, drink or tea? ”

"Let's have a glass of ice water, it's too hot and I'm quite thirsty." Li Donglai is casual, and Zhao Wei is not restrained. Li Donglai nodded and asked the assistant outside to pour water. He took the script handed over by Zhao Wei.

"Is it a youth love story?" Just by looking at the name, you can know what type of film it is. After the fire of "The Girl We Chased in Those Years", it seems that the hotline for youth romance films has also been opened. In the past few days, there have been many movies with the theme of youth love in China, but there are not many of them.

"That's right. Adapted from Xin Yiwu's best-selling novel of the same name. It is a "warm youth" and a small fresh style. Zhao Wei took the water handed over by the assistant, thanked her, and continued: "18-year-old Zheng Wei walked into the university campus with great expectations and began her journey of chasing love. It turned out that Zheng Wei had been a childhood sweetheart with Lin Jing's eldest brother next door since he was a child, and this time he was finally admitted to the neighboring school of Lin Jing's school, and he could communicate with him openly and honestly. Who wants to greet her is not the embrace of her sweetheart, but the trick of fate - Lin Jing went abroad to study. There was no news. Zheng Wei was devastated, but in times of trouble, he formed a deep friendship with his roommates Ruan Guan, Zhu Xiaobei, Li Weijuan and his senior brother Lao Zhang, and slowly walked out of his heart knot with their company. ”

"A new university life has officially begun. In this polytechnic college where there are more men and fewer women, Zheng Wei and Ruan Guan, two beauties, are very eye-catching. Xu Kaiyang, the rich son, is one of Zheng Wei's many suitors, and Ruan Guan guards her loyalty to love with her unique coldness. An accidental misunderstanding made Zheng Wei and Lao Zhang's roommate Chen Xiaozheng become mortal enemies, and in the counterattack again and again, Zheng Wei was surprised to find that he fell in love with this high-achieving student who was cold on the surface and kind at heart, so the crazy counterattack evolved into a stubborn pursuit, and Chen Xiaozheng finally surrendered under the strong attack. Happy enemies finally become sweet lovers......"

Zhao Wei is obviously well prepared, and she chatters non-stop when she talks about the content of the script. When he saw Li Donglai listening to her carefully, he realized that he had said too much, "Or." Let's take a look first. Don't entertain me. ”

Li Donglai smiled: "What is the budget?" ”

"The budget is not large, more than 4ooo."

"Aren't you the star yourself?" Li Donglai was a little surprised. "No, I'm old. And it was the first time I became a director, and I was afraid that it would not be good to control it. I also really enjoy working behind the camera. Didn't you just start looking behind the camera? ”

Li Donglai nodded slightly. "Everyone has their own choices. I don't advise you either. I'll look at the script first. The length was not large, and after a while, he put down the script and said directly: "Can I make a small opinion, I happened to have read the original novel." "Ha, listen up, I can get the advice of a great director like you, and my graduation work will be completed."

Li Donglai smiled, "Your script splices the original plot a little messy. The plot is a little inexplicable, but the novel is a novel. A movie is a movie, and you can't criticize it just because it is different from the original book. It's in the service of the film, and it's understandable. So in addition to the original work, just talking about the script, your details and foreshadowing are a little sloppy, the story is complex and the main line is slightly messy, and the most important thing is that the characters are too negative. Really, too negative. Take 10,000 steps back, a boy is relying on others to like him and go through the back door to get the qualification of studying abroad, and deceive others to marry and then divorce for a green card, even if this person is the person he loved when he was younger, this kind of character, can either? ”

Zhao Wei was thoughtful, and there was no annoyance on her face. Li Donglai continued: "The age of the story seems to be before the new millennium, and the characters can be reshaped. So we took over this job in Phantom, and the budget of 4ooo million is a little tight, and we can give you a budget of 6ooo million, which is not enough to add more. I just ask you not to save money, and make the movie exquisite. ”

"Ahh

Zhao Wei was a little surprised, she was still criticizing the script just now, and agreed in a blink of an eye?

"That's what you say. And give an extra budget of 2ooo million? It's too hasty. ”

"Look at what you say."

Li Donglai put away the script and said with a smile: "Just with your name Zhao Wei, go out for a trip, how can you not find tens of millions of investments." I like to train young directors so much, hehe, you are right to look for me. This is true, Zhao Wei married a rich husband, if you need to spend money, as long as you open your mouth, it is not easy to catch.

Li Donglai estimated that with the title of Zhao Weici as the director, the movie could make money. What's more, Chinese films are on the rise in recent years, even if the movie is bad, with the operation of the Phantom, it will not lose money.

After sending Zhao Wei away, Li Donglai couldn't leave the office. It is estimated that Li Donglai took advantage of the rare trip home, and all the trivial matters accounted for a piece. The front heel sent Ms. Zhao away, and the back heel ushered in another lady.

Xue Xiaolu, the female director who once wrote and directed the movie "Ocean Paradise", Li Donglai did not know. But because the movie "Ocean Paradise" is starring Li Lianjie and heraldry, he happened to watch it. So he is no stranger to Xue Xiaolu, and he will know it as soon as he is introduced by Rodro.

"Director Li ......"

"Don't, I'm a junior, Teacher Xue will call me Donglai."

"Hehe, okay, I'll drag it out. This time I came to invest in Phantom La. ”

"Oh." Li Donglai welcomed her in again, "What a coincidence, Sister Zhao Wei's second sentence when she entered the door just now was also this." Let's sit down and talk slowly, what do we drink? "Xue Xiaolu was born in 197o and is from Beijing. Literary writer, film and television screenwriter, film director. In 1996, he graduated from the Literature Department of Beijing Film Academy and obtained a master's degree. The degree can be stronger than Zhao Wei. "Ocean Paradise" is written and directed by her, and other works include "With You" directed by Chen Kaige, TV series "Don't Talk to Strangers", etc.

Keban was born differently, and the script she submitted was also much stronger than Zhao Wei's script.

"Is it a youth romance movie?" After reading the name, Li Donglai knew the type. This is good. Then he appeared, and it seemed that this sentence was said for the second time today.

"Sort of. It's a bit of a weird romance, hehe. Xue Xiaolu said with a smile: "Tell me about a money-worshipping girl Wen Jiajia used to be the editor of a food magazine, and she is full of romantic fantasies about love like the movie "Sleepless in Seattle". In reality, because there was no way to issue a birth permit in China, she traveled thousands of miles to the confinement center in Seattle to give birth. ”

At the confinement center, Wen Jiajia's style of showing off her wealth attracted the disgust of the landlord and other pregnant women, and she could only confide in the driver Frank when she felt lonely. And the down-and-out uncle Frank, who seems to be honest, is not a mediocre man, he was once a first-class doctor in China for cardiovascular diseases. In getting along, Frank's thoughtfulness and tolerance gradually melted Wen Jiajia's brutality and willfulness. When Wen Jiajia's rich boyfriend suddenly disappeared, Wen Jiajia, who became poor overnight, was taken care of by Frank, and the days of living with Frank and his daughter allowed Wen Jiajia to find the warmth of home. The two get along day and night and have a subtle relationship. ”

Wen Jiajia's child was born, but her rich boyfriend reappeared, took him back to China and proposed. Although life is as luxurious as in the past, Wen Jiajia often misses Frank. At this time, she realized what the love she was really pursuing. Leaving Seattle doesn't mean the end, leaving is the beginning of the next encounter. ”

After she finished the story, Li Donglai was still reading the script carefully, and after a long time, he put down the script and drank a glass of juice, and said: "The story is very exciting, and it seems to be suspected of biasing towards the junior." But there is conflict to be wonderful, to be honest, your script is better than Sister Zhao Wei. Even her films are invested, and there is no reason to refuse a better script. Do you have an idea for the actors? Both roles are very expressive, and if the acting skills are not in place, it will be greatly reduced. ”

"Did you promise to invest? It's good that I found you guys at the first stop, and then I got it. Xue Xiaolu was very happy and said with a smile: "What do you think of Wu Xiubo and Tang Wei?" Both are acting schools. When I write the script, the actors that come to mind are the same. ”

"And a female partner?"

"How's Haiqing?"

"Hmm......" Li Donglai was silent for a moment, "You are very well prepared, and I have no reason to refuse." I wish us a happy cooperation. ”

"Ha, that's a quick talk. Don't you ask me how much I have to invest my budget? When the big thing was done, Xue Xiaolu seemed very happy.

Li Donglai said with a smile: "Don't ask, how much do you want." ”

Xue Xiaolu was completely convinced, "Sure enough, you have a lot of money, so I shouldn't talk to a rich man like you about any money." Happy working together! She stood up and shook hands with Li Donglai.

Li Donglai personally sent her out of the door, "Sister Xue has any movie plans in the future, I hope you can think more about our phantom." "I'm going to look for you, who told you to be so happy." Li Donglai immediately cried and laughed.

The reporters outside the Phantom Gate caught two women and walked into the door of the Phantom Company today, both of which were personally sent by Li Donglai. couldn't help but speculate about the reason, and it wasn't until a few days later, when the Phantom announced the new film plan, that he realized what the two were doing in there.

Li Donglai was still anxious about the shooting plan for the coming year, but he didn't expect to come up with two plans in one afternoon. It's really gratifying.

"Brother, why are you so happy?" Rodro pushed the door open and walked in.

Li Donglai smiled, "It's nothing, I just spent 100 million, I want to celebrate." Is Brother Hua here? ”

"Spend 100 million to celebrate? There's nothing wrong with it. Rodro was a little stunned, "Mr. Liu is in Hong Kong." His daughter was born and he was busy. You didn't give a gift, did you? ”

"Oh, I forgot about that."

Li Donglai clapped his hands, "Fortunately, he didn't give me a gift." Hey, let's give you a call in a moment. What are you looking for from me? (To be continued!)
