Chapter 42: Dances with Wolves
"Hello, Mr. Xu!" Feng Feifei smiled and saluted Xu Guanwu.
"You're okay too." Xu Guanwu nodded.
He doesn't know much about Feng Feifei, only that she likes to wear a hat when she performs, so she is known as the "Queen of Hat Songs".
He sang countless classic songs in his life, such as "Dream Chaser", "Applause" and so on. In Taiwan in the 70s, he was even three points more popular than the queen of the music world, Deng Lijun.
"Mr. Xu, I came today to ask you for something," Liu Jiachang said with a smile, "You also know that the song "My Favorite is You" I wrote for Feifei can't be published, but the album still lacks a title song and can't be released, so I want to ask Mr. Xu to help make one, how about it?" ”
Xu Guanwu couldn't help but be a little curious when he heard this, what is this Liu Jiachang's dough made of, and why is it so thick?
He had just let him go today, and in the evening he pretended to be fine, and dared to covet his own woman, and he was even bold enough to invite him to sing.
Being able to do such a level of incorruptibility and shame can really be called the pinnacle.
Xu Guanwu laughed angrily, "Mr. Liu, writing songs is just my interest, and I am far from being excellent in terms of talent and knowledge." Writing those songs for Teresa has consumed all my energy. Please forgive me for not being able to write any more songs for Miss Feng Feifei. ”
"Why should Mr. Xu be too humble, I know that Mr. Xu's talent is quite outstanding." Liu Jiachang couldn't help but sneer when he saw Xu Guanwu rejecting him three times and twice, "That's good, 50,000 NT$ for a song, how about it?" ”
Liu Jiachang said, took out a check with 50,000 Taiwan dollars written on it, and pestled it directly in front of Xu Guanwu.
Xu Guanwu's face sank suddenly, "Mr. Liu, I said that writing songs is just my interest. NT$50,000 is a lot, but it's not uncommon. If Mr. Liu wants to find someone to buy songs, just look for it. Forgive you for not being accompanied. ”
After speaking, Xu Guanwu took Zhao Yazhi's hand and strode into the distance.
"Humph! Toast without eating and eating penalty wine! Liu Jiachang snorted coldly, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
……
Xu Guanwu knew that he had offended Liu Jiachang, and he would definitely have a lot of trouble in the future, and he suddenly felt anxious.
At this moment, I saw Zhang Anle and Wu Dun coldly, also wandering around the banquet, and I couldn't help but light up.
If you take the line of the Bamboo Union Gang, you will not be afraid of Liu Jiachang's little ghost.
"You sit here obediently, and I'll come when I go." Xu Guanwu patted Zhao Yazhi's hand and said.
"Well, be careful." Zhao Yazhi's face blushed and reminded in a low voice.
Xu Guanwu nodded, smiled and walked over to Zhang Anle and Wu Dun.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wu!" Xu Guanwu smiled and stretched out his hand.
Zhang Anle and Wu Dun came to participate in this celebration today in order to establish contacts with people in the entertainment industry so as to pave the way for entering the entertainment industry in the future.
But who of the people present didn't know their details, although they also talked and laughed with them on the surface, but when it came to the main topic, they immediately talked about him.
stayed here for half an hour, and didn't even negotiate a deal, which made the eyes of the two brothers angry.
As soon as he saw Xu Guanwu coming over with a smile, Zhang Anle's eyes lit up, "Mr. Xu, congratulations!" The box office has soared, and the money is rolling. ”
"It's just a little money, how can it be compared to the two bosses." Xu Guanwu waved his hand.
"A little bit of money?! Mr. Xu, you're really joking, that's NT$2 million. Wu Dun's eyes widened.
Two million New Taiwan dollars, which is almost two months' income of the Bamboo Union Gang.
"Mr. Xu, our brother also wants to make a little money, I wonder if we can show the way?" Zhang Anle asked with squinted eyes.
"Mr. Zhang also wants to make a movie?" Xu Guanwu pretended not to know, and asked with wide eyes.
"Yes, now there are many brothers in the company, and they are all waiting for the money to go back to dinner." Zhang Anle said with a smile, revealing a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Xu Guanwu knew that the Bamboo Union Gang had become a plate of loose sand since the gang leader Chen Qili was imprisoned.
The cousins fought with each other, and the brothers in the same cousin also caused disputes because of their interests.
Although Zhang Anle is the acting leader, he actually has only 100 people under him, and his territory is only a few places, and it is when the mountains and rivers are exhausted.
The brothers in the gang need to eat, the injured in the rush need to be hospitalized, and the family members need to be comforted, all of which require money.
Therefore, Zhang Anle hollowed out his mind and put his idea on making a movie.
However, the ideal is plump, and the reality is skinny.
Taiwan's major film and television companies are all state-owned, and the Bamboo Union Gang naturally does not dare to poach with hoes; The remaining few slightly decent film and television companies are all black and white, not only in the government departments, but also secretly have ** support. It is also not easy for the Bamboo Union Gang to reach out.
There are still some small film and television companies that don't even have decent offices. When making a movie, I scraped together a sum of money, and then found a major company to rent a person to shoot, and after filming, it was screened in a cinema for up to three days, and I pointed to selling the copyright in other cities to make money.
is so miserable, naturally it does not meet Zhang Anle's requirements for making money.
Therefore, Zhang and Wu thought about it, but they couldn't find a company that could start.
looked at a large piece of fragrant cake, but couldn't eat it in his mouth, which made Zhang and Wu really depressed.
"Let me ask you first, how much can you afford?" Xu Guanwu asked curiously.
"NT$5 million." Zhang Anle thought about it and stretched out a slap.
Five million New Taiwan dollars, equivalent to more than one million Hong Kong dollars, was a huge amount of money at that time.
"NT$5 million sounds like a lot, but when you do the math, it's not much. Even if it is to make a low-budget kung fu movie, it will cost one or two million New Taiwan dollars. Xu Guanwu frowned and said, "Plus the publicity expenses after that, at least two million New Taiwan dollars." And even if it is filmed, it will be released in theaters, and you will have to pay a minimum fee, pay 30% of the tax, and divide half of the theater's profits. With an investment of 2.5 million yuan, it is also difficult to expect whether Zuihou can earn back his capital. ”
Zhang Anle and Wu Dun were dumbfounded, and they couldn't imagine that making a film would have to pass so many hurdles and spend so much money.
When Xu Guanwu saw the surprised expressions of the two of them, he knew that they must have thought too much about making movies before.
"You only see thieves eating meat, but you don't see thieves being beaten." Xu Guanwu snickered.
"What does Mr. Xu mean?" Zhang Anle asked curiously.
He didn't want to believe that Xu Guanwu came up automatically, and he came to talk to them about these idle stories.
"I mean don't make movies for a while, because you're new to the industry and you're not familiar with the film industry. Moreover, the investment in making movies is too large, and it is difficult to return the cost in a short period of time. Xu Guanwu said with a smile, "It's better to start with the release of the film first, you can also buy a copy from Hong Kong, and then find a theater to show it to you." If you have a high enough vision, you can basically make a good deal without losing money. ”
Zhang Anle thought of the black head of the Dahua Theater, and his heart suddenly warmed up, "Mr. Xu's idea is really good, but our brothers have never been involved in this aspect before, and I really don't know how to buy this copy." ”
"That's good, our company will have two films completed soon, and it will be handed over to you to distribute in Taiwan at that time." Xu Guanwu said with a smile.
"That's great, thank you Mr. Xu for your support." Zhang Anle's heart was full of joy and hurriedly thanked him.
But after a while, he made a bitter face again, "I heard Boss Lin say that a copy costs tens of millions of Taiwan dollars, how can we afford it?" ”
