Sister Hua worked very efficiently, and soon made an appointment with the main creator of the show, and the place was naturally the office of the brokerage company.
This is not the first time Gao Yuanyuan has been here, but it is the first time she has appeared as an administrative assistant.
"I said why don't you want to be a full-time artist, dare to let you dig it up." Sister Hua is no stranger to Gao Yuanyuan, so she teased Chen Bodao in front of her.
"No, no. I volunteered! Gao Yuanyuan hurriedly waved her hand to defend that a MV and a little nurse's advertisement were all in cooperation with the company, although they didn't make much money, but the price was much higher than that offered by other companies.
Even if there are still people calling her to shoot commercials, it's just that she really has no interest in being an advertising actor, and it's not as interesting as being Chen Bo's assistant.
"Sister Hua is joking, you take it seriously." Chen Bo smiled and said, "Have all the people arrived?" Sister Hua. β
"I'm just waiting for you, I was also introduced by a friend in the circle. I read that the script is good, and the people are reliable. With this idea, it is up to you to decide whether it succeeds or not. β
Wang Jinghua is giving Chen Bo a vaccination, after all, this is a matter of paying money, if you really lose money, who will you talk to when you lose money, and the decision-making power is indeed in Chen Bo's hands.
The door in the conference room was pushed open, and the three main creators who were originally sitting on the sofa stood up like springs.
Among them, one is particularly conspicuous, with a body like an iron tower and a burly figure of more than 1.9 meters. The shiny bald head has black-rimmed glasses and a short beard on the chin. Looking at the face, it really doesn't look like an artist, but like a full thug, and the other two are much more gentle.
Seeing that it was Wang Jinghua and two young people who came in, they looked like they were both in their early 20s, so they couldn't be investors, and it was estimated that at most they were company personnel sent by the other party, isn't this a little disrespectful?
Investing in such a big thing, but it is risky, and it is such a child's play, and I feel that I don't have much hope for this investment.
"This is what I said about Mr. Chen," Sister Hua introduced them in the middle.
"This is Mr. Chen?" The big man was surprised, it was the first time he had encountered such a young investor, could it be that the heirs of some big family came to play tickets?
"That's right, I am, that's my business card."
Chen Bo was also very helpless about his age, he had deliberately pretended to be more mature, but his young face still betrayed him, although he was psychologically in his thirties.
"Chairman of the Board of Directors of Pangu Technology Group, Chen Bo?" The position in front of me alone is scary enough, this company really doesn't know, but the name is a little familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.
"Chen Bo? Chen Bo? That's right, what kind of website is the president of Chen Dacang! The fairer-skinned man next to the big man shouted.
"Uh,......" This person is really straightforward, so straightforward that Chen Bo doesn't know how to answer.
"It's the CEO of Listening Music Network." Gao Yuanyuan, who was standing on the side, reminded that no one could call him a nickname in person, although the nickname given to him by those media was still quite interesting.
"Excuse me, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue." The man was a little embarrassed and said busily.
"It doesn't matter, it's all media friends who love it, it doesn't matter what it's called, it's just a code name."
The mouth of the people is more important than the mouth of the people, he can't stop others from talking, and he hasn't damaged his reputation, just call it. "I am director Guan Hu, and this is writer Zhang Chenggong and screenwriter Lu Chuan." The big man changed the subject at this time.
"Are you from Lunan or Northern Jiangsu?" Chen Bo blurted out.
"I'm from Langya."
"Then we are fellow villagers, my hometown Linzi. The Guan family is mostly inherited from Qi Xiang Guan Zhong, mainly living in southern Shandong and northern Jiangsu. Mainly because I have classmates who also have the surname Guan and know better, so I asked casually. β
No wonder he is so big, there are many big men in the land of Qilu. Chen Bo is a relatively inferior type, and he only has a height of 176 when he struggles to grow, which is more than 190 years shorter.
"Haha, really, I didn't expect Mr. Chen to know my surname so well, we have to drink two glasses when we have time, and we have a good cheer." Laga is the meaning of small talk in Lu dialect, like chatter in the Northeast. Guan Hu was so happy that he brought out all the dialects.
"No problem, I haven't taken anyone for drinking! But let's talk about this book first.γ Chen Bo finally met a fellow outside, and he felt very cordial, but he was more serious.
Gao Yuanyuan muttered quietly beside her, "I haven't served anyone, only support the wall!" It's a pity that Chen Bo didn't hear it at all, otherwise it would be wonderful.
Chen Bo took over the script, the 31-episode TV series "Black Hole", and then he suddenly realized that it was filmed by his fellow countryman. Crazy memories came to my eyes, this drama is the theme of anti-corruption and anti-crime, and the portrayal of underworld characters is very full, and the depiction of positive characters does not have the usual lofty techniques.
is definitely a very wonderful drama, with ups and downs, a compact plot, and contradictions and conflicts are also vividly expressed. The villain image of the underworld brother Nie Mingyu and deputy Zhang Feng is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. In short, in this era, the ratings and reputation of this TV series are very good, no wonder Sister Hua will say that the investability is relatively high.
"Well, it's not bad."
Of course, Chen Bo will not directly praise this drama to the sky, he always has to put some pressure on them, it is easy to slap his face if he is too full.
"What is the total budget for this play?"
"If you save a little shot, it's about 2.4 million." As a director, Guan Hu needs to control the overall situation, the producer is outside the field, and the crew is his kingdom.
"Which company is responsible for the production, and how much funding is there?"
Although Chen Bo is not very familiar with the specific process, he also knows that since you came to me for investment, you must have contacted the production company. Otherwise, where did you come from a team of directors, and you are a director who is not very famous. It must be that the production company can't make so much money, so it has to come out and attract investment by itself.
"Kim Young-ma Film and Television Company, there is still a shortage of about one million."
"Is the contract finalized?"
"We're all fellow countrymen, and I won't hide it from you. The funds are not in place, and the other party is reluctant to sign the contract. As long as the funds are implemented, the other party will be able to sign the contract and set up the project immediately! β
Guan Hu is real, and the truth has been said, if you meet a cheating and trickster, you will be a white wolf with empty gloves, and you will first fool you to get the funds and then sign a contract.
"I voted for this play, but I have conditions." Chen Bodao.
"What conditions, Mr. Chen, you say. As long as it's not harsh, I'm fine. β
He was the backbone of the couple, and the other two nodded in agreement. Seeing that the other party was about to get to the point, he didn't continue to call his fellow countryman, but changed his name to Mr. Chen.
"First, the actors try to use our company's artists without affecting the use of the show. Second, you signed up with my agency. Third, there is no need to find anyone else for this drama, and my film and television company will be responsible for the production and distribution. β
"Wait a minute, Mr. Chen, you made me confused, you still have a brokerage company and a film and television company?" Guan Hu was puzzled, isn't it engaged in some Internet technology, why did other companies pop up, and I haven't heard of these rumors in the circle.
"The major shareholder of this Galaxy Picking Culture Company is Mr. Chen, and I only have some shares. Because Mr. Chen is relatively low-key, he has been keeping it secret, and Mr. Chen has just established a film and television company. Seeing this, Wang Jinghua hurriedly explained.
I really didn't expect this, the other party is hiding very deeply, although he is young and has a lot of industries, it seems that he really has some skills. Wang Jinghua is the first sister in the artist agency, of course he knows how many actors want to be signed.
But there are also many kinds of actors, group performances, group specials, special guests, etc. It is impossible for all of them to be the leading actors in a drama, so they need a lot of actors, these are considered small, and there are also medium and large specials, with fixed shots and a few lines. It's just a fixed salary, and there are very few people who come out, how can Wang Jinghua sign these people.
Even if she is from a professional class, she has to pick and choose to see if there are development prospects and whether she can sign it plastically, which is still more demanding, otherwise it is a waste of the company's resources, which is a waste of silver.
Guan Hu is an individual director, and Lu Chuan is the same. Where can I live, I also made a TV movie last year, the kind broadcast on the movie channel, and I didn't even have the opportunity to enter the cinema.
If there is an organization, who will come out to attract investment by themselves, the other party has a film and television company, and the agent here is Wang Jinghua, so there is no chance?
"No problem, Lu Chuan and I can both sign, but Brother Zhang is not in this circle, and he also has the original unit." Guan Hu made this decision after making eye contact with Lu Chuan.
"No problem, the company will definitely make a reasonable development plan for you. 2.4 million is too little, I'll give you 4 million. But it has to be well-made. I don't need shoddy defective products! β
Since all the money has been invested, then it will not be a so-so thing, this is the head Virgo of the film and television company, and it must be famous. Breaking through the current blockade, we can't let Hairun and Rong Xinda see the joke.
"Mr. Chen, don't worry. I promise to do my best, but I have a small request, you see......"
"Just say anything, it's not a gentleman at all."
"I have a girlfriend who is an actor from a professional class, can you see if you can also sign a contract with our company." Guan Hu said a little embarrassed.
"No problem, the fellows have opened their mouths, how can I refuse?" Chen Bo readily agreed, and gave Wang Jinghua a look.
In order to win over this big director, it is worth it to bring an actor agency contract. Wang Jinghua definitely didn't understand it in her heart, so Chen Bo gave her a look first, and then explained the situation later.
"Then I'm fine! You can sign it at any time. Guan Hu got a satisfactory answer now, and said.
"Okay, then let Sister Hua prepare a contract for you, wait a few days, and call the producer to do it together for a meeting."
With a ready-made script, Chen Bo must speed up the progress of the film and television company, and Marco has already handled it almost and can leave at any time.
