Chapter 66: Poor Acid Boss
Liu Mingxun called all the money transferred by Yi Yang to the money card, and told him that this film must not think about saving money, and that everything should be used in the best, and that the funds are not enough to tell her.
Qian Xuan looked at the extra money in the card and swallowed.
He really believed now that he didn't dream anymore, after all, he didn't dare to do it in his dreams.
And after Liu Mengxun gave the money out, he got up and packed himself up and prepared to go to the appointment.
After the equity transfer of Jufeng Entertainment broke out yesterday, there was really a bold director who contacted her and wanted her to invest.
It is estimated that everyone thinks that her 500 million yuan will be thrown into a drama with 80% of the time to hit the street, so according to her vision, as long as they flicker in place, she will definitely invest the money in them.
Although Liu Mengxun really wanted to give them a white eye, she really needed these thunder dramas to help her spread her wealth now, although the mosquito was small, it was also meat, so she happily went to the appointment.
I don't know if this director is really poor or in order to create the illusion that he is particularly poor and in urgent need of investment, the agreed location is actually a barbecue stand.
It's really just a stall, not even a storefront.
Liu Mingxun looked at the small skirt of Grandma Xiang on her body, and then looked at the low table and the small horse on the side of the road, and the corners of her mouth twitched.
She didn't mean to look down on the food on the street, so she wanted to ask the director whether he regarded her as an investor or the director of the Poverty Alleviation Office.
Yu Gui was standing next to the barbecue stall at this time, and he was also worried.
It's not that he doesn't want to go to a high-end restaurant, but he doesn't even have a dime in his pocket, he doesn't even have a dime, just this street barbecue, and because the stall owner is a roommate who rents a room with him, he reluctantly agrees to him on credit.
The overlord drama in his hand now, because it just started filming, there was a lot of scolding on the Internet, so the investor directly withdrew his investment.
All the liquidated damages paid by the investor were used to distribute to the group performance, but the drama was also smashed in his hands.
And he was also criticized for this drama, and investors were reluctant to ask him to direct the drama again.
Now he has only two ways out, either find a new investor and fight this brainless love drama to the end, or change careers.
He couldn't let go of his dream of directing, so he decided to die, but after more than two months, Liu Mengxun is his only hope.
"Mr. Liu, do you think we should talk while eating?"
Yu Gui said, while bowing slightly and making a gesture of please to the roadside stall,
The expression on Liu Mingxun's face was very indescribable.
Yu Gui's roommate at the barbecue stall on the side of the branch road squinted his eyes and looked at Yu Gui's posture, yo, the posture is exactly the same as those doormen in the TV series to greet guests, which makes his barbecue stall feel a lot taller.
Liu Mengxun looked at her short skirt and thought about whether she should sign the contract immediately and leave directly.
However, Yu Gui didn't give her this chance, he took off his denim jacket and handed it to Liu Mengxun.
Liu Mingxun: Xing Horn.
She covered her legs with her coat and sat down on the pony.
Before the barbecue was delivered, Yu Gui first took out the script and handed it to Liu Mengxun.
Liu Mingxun took it, looked at it, and asked him: "How much money do you still lack for this drama?" ”
Yu Gui glanced at her cautiously, and then slowly stretched out two fingers: "Twenty million." ”
Liu Mingxun heard this, flipped through the action of the script, and Yu Gui immediately said when he saw this: "Actually, 10 million is fine, as long as you don't use the original male and female leads, just choose a few newcomers." ”
Liu Mingxun originally didn't expect that this drama would only need this investment, but she was too surprised for a while, but she didn't expect that she would be stunned by this kung fu, and she could actually cut it in half.
She hurriedly spoke, for fear that she would be able to jump off the building again later.
"The male and female leading actors still use the original, and we will sign the contract now."
This time, Yu Gui was stunned, but he quickly reacted, and immediately took out the contract from his backpack and put it in front of Liu Mingxun.
"Mr. Liu, you can see if there is anything to change in the contract, but I don't ...... about the divestment compensation."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Mengxun had already taken out a pen and signed his name on the contract.
Yu Gui: "...... Mr. Liu, have you read the contract? ”
"After reading it, I have no objection to this contract."
Yu Guiyan took out his pen in a trance and signed his name on the contract.
He was a little unconvinced that Liu Mengxun could read the contract in just a few tens of seconds.
But Liu Mingxun really didn't lie to him, she has been by Ji An's side for so many years, and she passes through the contract in her hand every day, not dozens but dozens, and the ability to look at the contract to find loopholes has long been practiced.
In this contract that was given to her, except for the excessive amount of compensation that the investor needs to pay for the withdrawal of funds, everything else is fine.
However, this is nothing to her, a clause that is detrimental to her interests, first: she will not withdraw her capital; Second: She can't wait to lose more benefits as soon as possible.
And Yu Gui put the contract back in his backpack, and the whole person came to life.
There is no endless road!
He picked up his beer glass quite excitedly: "Mr. Liu, thank you for your trust, don't worry, I will definitely spend all the money you invested on the blade, never waste it, and strive to finish the TV series and publicize it, there is still 20 million left!" ”
Liu Mengxun: ...... Friend, you don't have to, if you can let me chase another 20 million, I can really rest assured. Niuniu Chinese Network
It's just that although she thinks so in her heart, she can't say it on her lips.
"I don't ask you to save money, I ask for quality, since you want to shoot, then shoot high-quality products!"
"Don't worry, I will definitely show my housekeeping skills in this TV series, and I will definitely not disappoint you."
The contract was also signed, and the wine was drunk, Liu Mengxun originally wanted to leave, but when she saw the barbecue served on the table, she didn't know why, and her buttocks, which had been raised a little, sat back down.
She didn't seem to have a roadside barbecue like this in a long time.
The shiny skewers were placed on the plate, and she picked one up and took a bite.
The spicy flavor bursts out in the mouth, just like the rich flavor in my memory.
She suddenly thought of five years ago, when Ji An did not rely on the Ji family, but started his own business outside.
She approached him with a heart that was not pure and became his assistant.
In order to get a different look from him, she had to work hard to learn all kinds of knowledge, strive to do everything to the best of her ability, and be busy every day until she flies.
Later, because of a large order, they worked overtime until three o'clock in the morning, and the whole office was full of the sound of their stomachs rumbling.
But at that time, all restaurants were closed, and only the barbecue stalls on the side of the road were still open.
So the two of them had their first barbecue together.
She still remembered the smell of the barbecue, but they weren't the same people anymore.
Liu Mingxun smiled self-deprecatingly, then came back to his senses and set a start-up date with Yu Gui, and the next thing was for Yu Gui to prepare for the crew.
It's just that everything was well planned, but in the end, there was a moth on the actor's side.
Male lead - Shen Tianqi's previous film, which was released in the past two months and became a hit, made his worth rise and became a second-tier male star in the circle.
So let him perform the contract to shoot this small web drama again, and his agency was not happy.
Doesn't this lower the level of their future actors, so the brokerage company is willing to pay liquidated damages to terminate the contract.
Although Yu Gui felt that it was a pity that the male lead actor had to be replaced, he was excited again when he thought about the sky-high liquidated damages of 15 million.
The salary negotiated with Shen Tianqi was 5 million, but now with the liquidated damages he gave, he can earn 10 million for nothing if he invites a third-tier male star, he is really a money-saving expert!
Yu Guimei told Liu Mingxun the news, thinking that Liu would always be very happy, but when he finished speaking, the other party's reaction was too big.
"Fifteen million in liquidated damages?"
Liu Mingxun's whole person exploded directly.
She finally spent 20 million, and returned it to her in the blink of an eye!
"Yes, Mr. Liu, with this liquidated damages, the real investment in our film is only five million, and the crew and I will work hard to save money and strive to make you not spend a penny."
Hearing him say this, Liu Mengxun almost wanted to vomit blood.
"No, the drama I invested in must not be shoddy, are you very optimistic about that male lead, if so, you tell him that the salary of this film is 15 million!"
Yu Gui's eyes were moved by the words, a director can meet investors who support him so much, it is simply three lifetimes of yin virtue!
"Mr. Liu, don't worry, this male lead actor doesn't have to be him, as long as his appearance is high enough, anyone can play this male lead, even if he is a wax figure who can't act, I can make him the boss in idol dramas!"
Liu Mengxun: ......
"I know, then you can re-choose the male lead, remember not to forget the quality in order to save money."
Yu Gui responded excitedly: "Don't worry!" ”
Liu Mingxun hung up the phone weakly, and then stared at the ceiling, why is it so difficult to spend money!
But soon, Yu Gui brought her good news.
He spent six million and hired a third-tier little fresh meat to play the male lead, which cost one million more than expected.
Liu Mingxun was a little comforted, so let's spend more.
Yu Gui is a director with strong action, and as soon as Liu Mingxun's funds are in place, his previous disbanded crew was reorganized in just one week and ready to start.
As the only investor and the financier of the entire crew, Liu Mengxun was warmly invited to attend the start-up ceremony.
Liu Mengxun was really idle at home after resigning, and she was really curious about filming, so she agreed to take a look.
It's just that when she came to the set and saw the location where the first act was filmed, her expression was very subtle.
She pointed to the luxuriously decorated three-bedroom apartment in front of her, and asked in disbelief: "This is the house where the richest man in the world lives in your script?" The poor ghost male protagonist of the crew next door lives better than the richest man in the world in your script, and they still live in a single-family two-story western-style building! ”
The entire crew: ......
Yu Gui touched his nose in a sneer: "Mr. Liu, the main thing is that the indoor shots are basically in the living room and bedroom, there is really no need to rent a villa, this luxuriously decorated three-bedroom apartment can already meet the needs of the camera." ”
Liu Mingxun rolled her eyes: "You think the audience is stupid?" Do you know why this kind of boss drama is always complained about, it's because the boss you filmed lives in a three-bedroom apartment, no matter how luxurious it is, it is also a three-bedroom apartment! And the boss traveled in a car of more than 100,000 yuan, wearing a suit of several hundred yuan, and giving the heroine's jewelry for a few hundred yuan, let me ask you, is there such a boss in real life? The ordinary rich second generation is not so shabby, okay? ”
"Yu Gui, let your crew go to Building 14 of Qingxi Garden, go to my house to get the heroine's clothes and bags, and give me the size of the male protagonist's clothes."
Yu Gui: ???
