Chapter 12 Zhongma is easy to speak
"Sister Na, and these two gentlemen, you sit down first, and I'll pour water for you."
Ma Dongmei greeted guests like a housewife, while Wang Lei sat still like an old lady, which made Lin Na feel very bad about Wang Lei.
"Hello Mr. Wang, we are from the Capital Three Dreams Theater, and we took the liberty to come here this time to talk to you about the story you posted on Xunbo."
"Oh, you want to adapt my story?"
Wang Lei still has some guesses about the intentions of the two "literary and art workers", he just heard Ma Dongmei's conversation with the visitor at the door, which really surprised him, Wang Lei knows that "Charlotte's Troubles" is indeed a good story, but after all, he is not well-known now, and he is not an insider, and it is estimated that he will have to wait for a while if "Charlotte's Troubles" really becomes a film and television drama, but now the theater owner has come to the door in person, which is similar to the experience of "Charlotte's Troubles" in the earth's time and space. This script was actually a hit drama, and it was later adapted into a movie.
"This, that's true, we've seen your story, it's very graphic, it will be very good to adapt it into a drama or something else, of course, if our theater adapts your story into a drama and then it hits, it will also be quite beneficial to you."
Zhang San adheres to the principle of not saying thoroughly, and tries his best to maintain his decency, so that he can bargain with Wang Lei in the future.
"Well, wait a minute, what's the name of your theater?"
Just when Zhang San and Wang Lei were about to have the next step of conversation, Ma Dongmei, who was originally going to pour water, suddenly walked out, and she seemed to know Zhang San's theater.
"It's called Sanmeng Theater, on the edge of the Fourth Ring Road, although our theater is not big, but its influence is not small, and there are many very good drama actors who have performed in us."
Zhang San seems to have realized something, and now he can only try his best to maintain the honor of his theater, after all, it should be difficult for a theater that is about to close down to gain Wang Lei's support.
"Brother Lei, we have been to this theater before, do you remember? It's the one four stops away from our house, didn't you take me out for a walk during the New Year, we watched a drama there for half an hour, you panicked, and then we left. ”
Ma Dongmei said that Wang Lei really remembered, it was three years ago, it seemed that this theater had just opened at that time, he took Ma Dongmei to go shopping, and when he passed by, he bought a ticket and went in to see it.
"Well, that's the case, your theater is really not big, but the poster posted at that time was a play directed by Renyi."
Zhang San's theater was indeed very dynamic when it first opened, he was full of spirit at that time, and spent a lot of money to invite an unknown director of the People's Art Theater to rehearse the play, but the play was only performed for a few days, mainly because there was no audience to watch it.
"Oh, you're from the capital, I really didn't expect it, yes, the scale of our theater is not very large, but we still have resources."
"Third brother, let's not hold on, these two are people who understand, let's tell the truth."
Seeing that Wang Lei and Ma Dongmei both had the expression that you have the ability to adapt my story, Li Si didn't dare to let Zhang San hold on anymore, they didn't have the strength and time to save face now.
Listening to what Li Si said clearly, Zhang San also figured it out, now they really can't fool others anymore, these two people sound like they are from the old capital, maybe there are all kinds of relationships, even if the flickering is successful now, and the copyright is in their hands, but after that, maybe a word from people can make them completely finished, rather than this, it is better to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, to put it to death and then live, and put the choice directly into the hands of Wang Lei, can you achieve this bet.
"Mr. Wang, since you also know about our theater, then I won't hide it, seriously, it's really presumptuous to come this time, but I really have to come, our theater has been open for three years, and now it's almost unsustainable, and I'm completely bankrupt after September, I know that this time I really seem rude, but I don't want to watch the theater I built up with my own hands cross like this, it doesn't matter if I'm bankrupt, it's a big deal to go back to my hometown and farm again, but these brothers with dreams under my hands can't just disperseThis time, I want you to authorize our theater to adapt your story and perform it, and I want to see if you can invest in our theater, shares or anything, as long as you can give the actors in our theater a bowl of rice to eat. ”
Zhang San tried his best to make what he said seem to be full of sincerity, I have to say that he still has some potential in being an actor, at least the face that looks smiling on weekdays does seem very sincere.
Wang Lei was actually a little moved at this time, not because of Zhang San's sincerity, but because he knew that it was not easy to get involved in the entertainment industry.
Although Wang Lei has a certain popularity, but unfortunately not many people know him, which does not help people get the recognition of film companies or well-known producers, it is undeniable that "Charlotte's Troubles" is indeed a good story, but those people in the entertainment industry are actually very cautious, their ultimate goal is to make a profit, a story created by a former basketball player who has no popularity and no experience in the literary and artistic entertainment industry is difficult to be recognized by them, Even if someone wants to get the story, they will probably buy the copyright directly, and then leave Wang Lei to do the project himself.
However, Wang Lei has not spoken yet, but Ma Dongmei spoke first.
"Brother Lei, it sounds good, I think you can try it, a theater doesn't cost much, and you can also watch the effect of their rehearsals when you become the boss, it's good."
Although Ma Dongmei said this, she was actually more concerned about where Wang Lei would go next, if the theater could be successful, then Wang Lei could return to the capital next, the two of them were not far from the theater at home in the capital, and they were neighbors, if Wang Lei lived in the capital, her father would be able to take care of Wang Lei nearby.
Ma Dongmei knows that her mother and Wang Lei have a deep prejudice, but she also knows what kind of person her father is, her grandfather "Lao Ma" is a stubborn and strange old man, and her father "Zhongma" is much easier to talk to, a native of the capital, is actually a "little man" character in Shanghai, which actually made "Lao Ma" and others very depressed.
