Chapter 4 Talks Fall Apart?

The next morning, the café.

Same seats, same scenes.

Lee Seung-woo sat opposite Xu Xian, took a sip of coffee, and listened to Xu Xian talk with a smile.

When Xu Xian was finished, Li Chengyou put down his coffee and smiled calmly: "I refuse." ”

"Huh?"

Seo Hyun frowned slightly and stared at Lee Seung-woo.

Lee Seung-woo smiled faintly: "You should know very well that this is my movie, if we can't reach a consensus on this, I don't think there is any need to continue to negotiate in the future." ”

Lee Seung-woo just thinks it's funny at the moment.

He couldn't understand what Xu Xian was thinking, was he really shrewd, or was he pretending to be shrewd?

Xu Xian actually proposed that the assistant director should be arranged by her, the details of the crew's accounts should be reported to her regularly, and every expenditure could only be settled after her confirmation, and there were some other miscellaneous requirements, which made Li Chengyou only feel funny. He is looking for investors, not the emperor, if he agrees to Xu Xian's requests, will the crew be his or Xu Xian's after the formation of the crew?

Shaking his head slightly, Li Chengyou smiled again: "If you don't have any trust in me, even if we reluctantly cooperate, there will be conflicts in the future, rather than this, I think, it's better to stop here." ”

Standing up, Lee Seung-woo stretched out his right hand and said with a smile: "Thank you for your interest in my script, I hope we will have the opportunity to work together again in the future." ”

Xu Xian's face was slightly stunned, he looked at Li Chengyou's outstretched right hand, frowned slightly, and said: "If you have any objections to my proposal, we can continue to negotiate, everyone is an adult, there is no need to listen to a little disagreement like a child." ”

Li Chengyou smiled dumbly, looked at Xu Xian, half a sound, and nodded: "Before we continue to negotiate, I want to make it clear." This is my film, and I am the core of the crew after the crew is formed, which is the premise of our cooperation. If we can't agree on this, then there is no need for us to continue the talks. After a pause, he smiled again, "As the old saying goes, there are no two days, and there are no two masters, if there are two voices in a crew, do you think the movie can still be filmed normally?" ”

Shaking his head, Li Chengyou smiled again: "Moreover, there is one thing that you may not have figured out yet." Even if you put everything else aside, your investment of 50 million only accounts for 40% of the total investment, and even in terms of investment proportion, you do not have the absolute right to speak. Therefore, most of the requests you have made, except for a few of them, cannot be accepted by me. ”

The reason why Lee Seung-woo asked Xu Xian to invest was that he had the idea of a white wolf with empty gloves, but also had some other purposes. But even so, he has no intention of giving up the dominance. If he really wants to have this idea, why should he ask Xu Xian to invest, any production company is more mature than Xu Xian.

At least he only needs to concentrate on filming when he finds a production company, and some other crews can be responsible for the preparation and marketing of publicity and marketing.

And what can Seo Hyun offer?

Aside from money, it's basically of little use.

And because of this.

Seo Hyun's behavior of thinking that he can occupy the dominant position by contributing capital made Lee Seung-woo feel funny.

This girl shouldn't be so stupid and sweet, right? When idols are touted a lot, don't you really think that God is the boss and she is the second, right?

Do you want to be so mentally retarded?

Hit the streets!

On the other side, Xu Xian frowned and looked at Li Chengyou, especially the mockery implied in Li Chengyou's smiling eyes, took a deep breath, suppressed his dark anger, and Xu Xian tried his best to be calm: "As an investor, I hope that my funds can be used reasonably, I think this is understandable, right?" Lee Seung-woo nodded, and Xu Xian said, "Then I put forward my ideas before cooperating, you can have different opinions, but I think I have the right." ”

Lee Seung-woo nodded again, then chuckled softly and sat down again.

From Xu Xian's words, Lee Seung-woo heard it. Xu Xian's words seem to be arguing with reason, but in fact he has made concessions. If Xu Xian didn't plan to give in, he wouldn't have explained so much to him.

In this way, this girl is not brain-dead to the extreme.

In fact, the reason why Lee Seung-woo was so decisive was not that he really planned to stop cooperating with Xu Xian, he was more just to show his attitude and let Xu Xian know his bottom line. After all, compared to cooperating with a production company, Lee Seung-woo is still more biased towards Seo Hyun. The production company is not as easy to fool as Seo Hyun, nor will it be so easy to talk to Seo Hyun.

And Seo Hyun?

Seo Hyun naturally wouldn't really be as brain-dead as Lee Seung-woo thought.

Although she doesn't know much about the film industry, she still knows some of the most basic common sense.

In South Korea, TV dramas are written by the screenwriter, while movies are directed by the director. In a film crew, the director is the core of the entire crew, and he is also the leader who coordinates everything.

The reason why Seo Hyun made so many seemingly harsh demands was not because he really thought that Lee Seung-woo would agree, nor did he really want to dominate the entire crew.

To put it bluntly, Xu Xian's plan is just to ask for a sky-high price and pay back the money on the ground.

Lee Seung-woo's resolute refusal was to show Seo Hyun his bottom line, and Seo Hyun made so many strict demands just to make Lee Seung-woo understand that she was not good at fooling and show her attitude. As she said to Lee Seung-woo before, as an investor, she hopes that her funds can be used reasonably, rather than being abused by Lee Seung-woo for some messy reasons.

So.

The more demanding she is, the more it shows that she is serious about her investment, lest Lee Seung-woo think that she is good at fooling and abusing her funds.

All in all, in short, both people have their own purposes, and they are just to show their attitudes.

Now that you've decided on your attitudes, we'll talk about it.

Seo Hyun said that she would not interfere with the crew, but she needed to know every step of the crew's formation, and she had to have a detailed plan for the use of each fund, and Lee Seung-woo naturally didn't care about these. He cares more about the dominance of the crew and the control of the entire crew. As for the funds, Lee Seung-woo is not a real liar, and he plans to cheat a sum of money at will, so he naturally doesn't care about being honest with Xu Xian in these irrelevant places.

Besides.

is such a 'layman' as Xu Xian, even if he tells Xu Xian all the details, what can Xu Xian see?

Lee Seung-woo is just too lazy to engage in these small actions.

All he needs now is initial funding, as long as the film can be released and a big success, he can accumulate more shooting funds, and there is no need to cheat at the beginning and lose a big loss.

So.

Even if he knew Seo Hyun's secret plan, Lee Seung-woo would only find it funny.

Xu Xian is worried that he is misusing funds, isn't it funny and what is it? Except for Xu Xian's investment, he didn't have a penny at all, even if Xu Xian didn't supervise, he would be careful in his calculations.
