Chapter 53: Can This Also Be Called Talent?
The library is clearly not the place to get down to business.
After returning the phone to Lin Mengmeng, Hao Yun followed the suspicious guy to the outside of the library.
Stopping at the door of the hall, the middle-aged man turned his head to look at Hao Yun, picked up the cap and sunglasses he was wearing on his head, and said with a friendly smile.
"Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Tian Ye."
Field?
Damn?!
When I first saw this face, I felt a little familiar, but after looking at it for a long time, I couldn't remember where I had seen it, and now when I heard this name, Hao Yun instantly reacted.
"You're the ...... A director who shoots chivalry? β
"It's down there," said Tian Ye with a modest smile as he stretched out his right hand, "but that was many years ago. β
It's been quite a long time.
If I'm not mistaken, my dad seems to be his fan?
Hao Yun's own words, his impression of the movie is already a little vague, and he only remembers that he watched it when he was in junior high school.
Holding this Tian Dao's right hand and shaking it, he said with some confusion.
"It turned out to be Director Tian, fortunately it will ......"
"Where, I'm here to be lucky! Before I came, I thought you were a teacher in school, but I didn't expect Mr. Hao to be so young...... Uh, take the liberty of asking, you haven't graduated yet, right? β
"I really didn't graduate."
It's not so much that I haven't graduated, but that I've just come to university......
Looking at the "courteous" look of this great director, Hao Yun was a little confused for a while, what was this guy going to do.
Just when Hao Yun was looking at this Tian Dao, the other party was also looking at him.
Looking at the young face in front of him, the director, who is in his forties, couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
I think when he was young, let alone set up a company of his own, he never even thought that he would become a director in the future.
If you think about it like this, your life before the age of thirty is simply in vain......
"I'm sorry I didn't greet you before I visited, but I really had to do it. I've sent several private messages on Yinke before, but I haven't received a reply, so I thought of coming here to find you directly. β
Facing the sincere gaze, Hao Yun was a little confused.
it?
How did this guy find here?
With an unnatural expression on his face, Hao Yun subconsciously glanced left and right, lowered his voice and asked.
"How do you know...... Am I just in the depths of the clouds? β
Hearing this, Tian Ye was also stunned.
He looked him up and down in disbelief before he said with a strange expression.
ββ¦β¦ To be honest, I didn't know that until now. β
Hao Yun: "......? β
Looking at the question mark written on Hao Yun's face, Tian Ye smiled bitterly and continued.
"Before, I was on the personal homepage of Yunshen and found that he signed a contract with Yunmeng Media, a subsidiary of Yunmeng Group, and then I flew to Jiangcheng. However, when I found the office of Yunmeng Media, I found that there was no one there at all...... There are two CEOs of Yunmeng Games and Yunmeng Investment. β
"Then I checked the registration place of Yunmeng Group, and found that the registration place was actually filled in Jiangcheng University, so I planned to come to you directly. Then when I was asking for directions just now, I met a boy with glasses, who seemed to be surnamed Chen? Anyway, as soon as he heard your name, he pointed me to the library, and then I came over. β
The company's registered place is public, as is the name and photo of the legal person, but Hao Yun never thought that this guy would be able to find himself with this clue.
As for the signing information filled in by Yun Shen's personal homepage, it was also temporarily changed by himself in order to fool a genius agent with a potential value of 6 into signing an entry agreement.
Damn, a director who has this investigative ability and is still a fart!
Just go and be a detective.
"But...... Even if Yunmeng Group is registered by me, how do you know that I don't know where Yunshen is? β
Tian Ye's expression touched the back of his head, and he said embarrassedly: "I didn't say that you didn't know where to go...... Didn't you tell me that yourself? β
The air was quiet and somewhat subtle.
Seeing that Hao Yun didn't speak for a long time, Tian Ye coughed lightly, trying to resolve the embarrassment and continued.
"Isn't the artist's account generally managed by the company? From the beginning, I wanted to trouble you to see if you could introduce me to that master who has no end in sight...... Who would have thought that the master would be you. β
"But to be honest, you're hiding too much. I really didn't expect that Yun Shen and the CEO of Yunmeng Group were the same person. β
The subsidiary of the company I registered signed up for myself.
Not to mention reading it out, it's quite awkward just thinking about it.
It's no wonder that no one knows Yun Shen's true identity in reality, just thinking about how he has hidden so many reporters, Tian Ye's heart is full of admiration.
However, Hao Yun's mood was not so beautiful.
Realizing that he had done something stupid, he opened his mouth in embarrassment.
ββ¦β¦ Can you keep it a secret for me? β
"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this!"
Looking at the great director's sincere face, Hao Yun sighed lightly and said.
"So...... Is there something you're looking for me? β
Tian Ye nodded, and from the briefcase he was carrying, he found a bit of thick printer paper.
"This is the script I plan to use for my new film, although it is only the first draft......"
Watching Tian Ye hand the script to him, Hao Yun hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and took it.
"Luoyang City Story"?
casually flipped through the outline of the script, and the expression on Hao Yun's face became even more weird.
Isn't this the lyrics of fireworks that are easy to cold?
Of course, it can't be said that it is all true.
Because there is no book "Luoyang Jialan Temple Chronicles" in this life, and the history of all countries in the world is also slightly different from his previous life, so many places are made up by the screenwriter with his unbridled imagination, and the background of the story simply applies the history of the period of the division of princes, and adds some gods and monsters and chaotic settings, but it is unexpectedly in line with the turbulent history of the Northern and Southern Dynasties of his previous life?
The script behind has not been turned over, and Hao Yun can't score the script for the time being.
But if you just look at the outline, he probably doesn't want to go to the cinema too much to buy tickets......
He had been carefully observing the changes in Hao Yun's expression, and seeing that he had finished reading the outline of the script, Tian Ye continued while the iron was hot.
"As you may have discovered, the inspiration for this script came from the song "Fireworks Are Easy to Cool", so I wanted to talk to you to see if I could buy the license for Fireworks Easy to Cool...... I'm going to use it as the soundtrack for the movie and the ending song. β
Set the ending song before making a movie, this way of shooting is also capricious enough.
Hao Yun closed the script in his hand, looked at him and said.
"I don't have any opinion, I just want to ask how much you plan to pay for this license."
Anyway, if you have money, you can do it.
What is the movie like, and what does it have to do with the master?
Facing the question thrown by Hao Yun, Tian Ye pondered for a while and spoke.
"Because of the things on the management side, our crew's budget is still a little tight. I'll be honest with you, according to the current market situation in Xia Guo, the price of a movie ending song is generally 100,000 to 200,000, considering the flow of the song itself that fireworks are easy to cool, I can pay 1 millionββ"
"Deal!"
Hao Yun agreed to come down, and Tian Ye was directly stunned.
After a few seconds, he came back to his senses and coughed lightly, and continued with an embarrassed expression.
ββ¦β¦ That, I'm not done yet. β
"It's okay! You name it, I'm very satisfied with the price! Did you bring the contract? Let's sign it if you bring it! β
If it weren't for the fact that there was no table here, Hao Yun couldn't help but want to pour tea for this guy enthusiastically.
That's a million!
All he had to do was sign the contract.
Although Yunmeng Games has also made some money now, this does not prevent him from seeing the money.
After all, who would be afraid of less money?
Looking at Hao Yun's enthusiastic appearance, Tian Ye felt embarrassed for a while.
But there are some things that have to be said clearly after all.
"As I said earlier, the budget of our crew is very tight, and we may not be able to squeeze out the money for a while......"
"It's okay! I don't mind waiting, you can also make an IOU first, and it's no problem to give it to me when your movie is released! β
Hao Yun felt that he was still very good at talking, and he could owe it first if he didn't have any money, anyway, he was not in a hurry to use it for the time being, and if he had an IOU, he wouldn't run away if he put the money there.
However, Tian Ye's expression was even more embarrassed when he heard this.
He hesitated for a moment before he spoke.
"IOU this...... It's a bit difficult because there is a fixed process for approving budgets. I mean, we can actually trade the other way. β
"Another way?"
Hearing this, Hao Yun was stunned, feeling that things were not as simple as he imagined.
As if confirming his conjecture, Tian Ye nodded and said embarrassedly.
"Yes, if you pay directly, we really can't afford to pay, but we can make the fireworks easy to cool for 1 million, and then this 1 million will be counted as your investment in our film......"
Hearing this, Hao Yun was instantly dumbfounded.
"What do you mean...... Is it equivalent to me investing in you with this song? β
Seeing that Hao Yun understood what he meant, Director Tian immediately nodded, "That's right!" β
Hao Yun couldn't help but say, "Isn't this a white prostitute?" β
"How can you say it's a prostitute?" As soon as he heard someone say that he was a prostitute, Tian Ye's face suddenly turned red, and he defended, "1 million to participate in the box office share...... When the box office results come out, won't you be rich? I can't make it 2 million or even 3 million. β
Hearing this, Hao Yun couldn't laugh or cry on his face.
"What if I lose it?"
Tian Ye's expression was a little embarrassed, and he added in a low voice.
"You can rest assured that we can sign a limited liability agreement, and if you win, you will share your money, and you don't have to worry about losing money."
Gan!
Isn't that equivalent to a blank check?
Hao Yun gritted his teeth and asked unrelentingly, "I only need 500,000 ...... What if you don't participate in the sharing? β
Tian Ye spread his hands helplessly.
"Really...... I'm so sorry! To be honest, I believe that this song, which can move me, is worth far more than half a million or even a million. I'm willing to give it to you if I can afford it, but we can't afford to put a drop out of our budget. β
Although the movie hasn't started yet, every budget has arranged where it goes.
If there is suddenly such a large amount of expenditure now, it will inevitably affect the follow-up shooting work, which will ultimately be reflected in the quality of the film.
This is something that the field does not want to see in any case.
Looking at Hao Yun, who was hesitant, Director Tian sighed and tried to persuade him.
"Actually...... If your psychological expectation is only 500,000, I think you can accept my proposal and treat this song as an investment in us. You've probably read the outline of the screenplay, and from the perspective of a professional filmmaker, I can tell you for sure...... It's hard to say whether it's hot or not, but you can definitely get a share of 500,000 yuan! β
Seeing that he said so, Hao Yun sighed.
"Okay, then do as you say."
Anyway, this song came by accident.
It's a good deed.
Hearing this, Tian Ye had a happy expression on his face, and hurriedly took out a contract from the briefcase he was carrying.
"Lookβ"
"I'll sign the contract, but I'll have to show it to a professional before I sign it. In this case, either you can put the contract with me, and I will sign it and send it to you when the time comes. Or do you work hard tomorrow and go to the Chengnan Entrepreneurship Park? My company is there, you should have been there before. β
"No problem! I'll leave the contract here for you, and I'll go over tomorrow. I should be here in Jiangcheng for the next few days, and the time tomorrow morning is very free, let you arrange it! β
The contract is over.
Director Tian didn't stay here for long, and after saying two words of thanks, he turned around and hurried away.
Seeing the back go away, Hao Yun was very melancholy for a while for this million dollars of "lost and regained, gained and lost".
But at this moment, a line of light blue pop-ups appeared in front of his eyes.
[Talent: Jiang Lang's talented director]
[Potential: 1]
it?
Since the potential value is only 1?
And the prefix of this talent......
Can "Jiang Lang's talent" also be called talent?
I don't know why, Hao Yun actually felt some sympathy in his heart.
This is probably the lowest potential value he has seen so far outside of himself.
But it's no wonder, after all, this Tian Dao is also a little older. Even if he once created a genre and laid a solid foundation for Xia Guo's martial arts movies, that was in the past......
Shaking his head slightly, just as Hao Yun was about to withdraw his gaze from his back, a line of light blue dialog boxes flashed before his eyes.
[Mission: Win this year's box office champion]
The moment he saw this line of task reminders, Hao Yun was stupid.
If he's not mistaken, it's already September.
Even if filming starts tomorrow and it will be released in early December, there will be less than 80 days of filming......
Not to mention what the box office champion is, whether it can catch up with the schedule in early December is a question.
Glancing at the so-called first draft of the script in his hand, Hao Yun didn't know what kind of expression he should put on at this moment.
Or......
Let's let go of this mission, right?
