When Song Yi heard that Director Li was looking for him because of his script, the whole person became serious all of a sudden.

I just handed it to him yesterday, and I have the answer today?

That's too efficient, isn't it?

He asked tentatively, "Director Li, have you already read my script?" ”

"Well, I watched it, I watched it last night."

Director Li sighed with a smile: "Xiao Song, I didn't see it, it is really impressive that you can write such a good script at such a young age." ”

"No, I just tried to write it."

Song Yi asked with concern: "Then I don't know Director Li, do you have a chance to report my script?" ”

"I've already reported it to you, and I'm looking for you just to tell you about the company."

"Ah, so fast?" Song Yi was a little surprised.

He also thought that Director Li came to him to talk to him about some of his own personal opinions.

It turned out that he had already reported it to the company's top management.

When was it reported?

Song Yi thought about it, and from the perspective of time, the biggest possibility was this morning.

Because he went to the manager's office this morning and stayed for a long time.

"What do you mean by the top of the company?" Song Yi asked.

Director Li paused, and then said: "First of all, if you find a script, the company is affirmative, the story is very good and complete, but because you are limited by finding a theme and type, the company is not very optimistic about its market." ”

After listening to this, Song Yi felt a little lost, but he was not very depressed.

Because he was mentally prepared for such a result, last time Director Wan gave him a preventive injection in advance and told him that the company is probably not willing to touch this type of theme.

"Okay, I see, thank you Director Li for your recommendation."

Song Yi smiled and thanked him, got up and said, "Director Li, if there is nothing else, I will go out to work first." ”

Since the company can't go this way, now he has to start thinking of another way and take other channels.

The book is written, and he must shoot it!

If there are difficulties, then overcome them yourself.

"Don't worry."

Director Li behind the desk was stunned.

The reason why he deliberately didn't finish the company's decision in one breath just now was to see how Song Yi reacted.

But looking at it now, after Song Yi heard the company's attitude, his whole person's expression did not fluctuate much, and he already had some thoughts in his heart.

also believes in the words of his old friend, Director Wan.

It is indeed not easy for a young man who has just entered the society to be able to be so pampered and not shocked after hearing such news.

Either you don't care about your script, or if you don't, you don't care, it doesn't matter.

Either he doesn't care about the company's attitude, whether the company agrees or not, he can handle it himself.

“？？？” Song Yi looked at him suspiciously.

Director Li smiled: "I haven't finished my words yet." Although the company doesn't look at your type of book, the company is still willing to give it a try and support the creation of newcomers.

For an online video company platform, it is very happy if it can cultivate a gold medal screenwriter of its own. ”

"Director Li, what do you mean?"

"That's right, under my persuasion, Manager Huang of the company decided to set up a project and shoot your script."

Director Li quietly brought out his "efforts", and then said: "But the company will only contribute half of the shooting funds, and you need to find investors or sponsors for the rest." ”

"......" Song Yi.

Director Li explained: "Xiao Song, the company has the company's difficulties, after all, your type is indeed a little different from the current market trend, and the company also has to consider some risks to enter. ”

"Understood."

Song Yi hesitated and asked, "Director Li, how much money does it take to shoot a script like mine?" ”

After all, this world is different from the previous life, and he is not very clear about the cost of filming, and he can't predict it.

"About 20 million."

Director Li patiently said to Song Yi, a newcomer: "The cost of our film and television drama is roughly divided into 3 parts, one part is remuneration, one part is props, and one part is post-production and publicity.

Then the remuneration part accounts for the lion's share, which accounts for two-thirds of the filming funds of the entire crew, and the screenwriter accounts for the heaviest proportion of this, which can account for half! ”

Song Yi was shocked after hearing this!

"Screenwriters account for so many? Isn't it true that actors are paid the most? ”

In the previous life, you must know that most of the cost of a drama was basically hollowed out by the actors' salaries, especially those traffic stars, which were sky-high!

As for the screenwriter, it may be symbolically given, and it must not be compared with the director and the actors!

"Nope."

Director Li shook his head and said: "In fact, the cost of ordinary actors is not high, unless you invite the kind of popular actors, it may be higher, but it will definitely not be higher than the screenwriter and director in the crew."

Let's put it this way, the sum of an actor's salary accounts for about three-sevenths of the entire fund, and most of the money is spent on scripts, post-production, and venue props. ”

"......" Song Yi.

Director Li's words shocked Song Yi and subverted his cognition a little.

Through Director Li's words, he came to a conclusion that in the film and television industry of this world, the position of the screenwriter is very high!

This conclusion made Song Yi's heartbeat speed up a little.

In his previous life, he had a dream of being a screenwriter, dreaming of becoming the biggest screenwriter, but the cruel reality made his dream shattered and he had to give up.

But here, this world, is the opposite of the previous life.

The soil here is simply heaven for a screenwriter, not too good!

Director Li looked at Song Yi, who was suddenly stunned, and shouted, "Xiao Song, Xiao Song? ”

Song Yi came back to his senses and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm distracted." ”

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine." Song Yi said embarrassedly: "Director Li, you continue." ”

"I said that because the script is yours, all in the screenwriting part, we can save a lot of expenses, and find some second-tier actors, plus half of the company's investment......"

Director Li stretched out five fingers and said, "I've calculated, you actually only need to pull an investment of seven million, and that's about it." ”

"Seven Million ....."

Song Yi was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll figure out a way to do this." ”

"Okay, there's no rush in this matter, take your time."

Director Li is not worried about the investment at all, with only seven million, he believes that Song Yi can handle it.

After all, the car he drives to and from work now is worth more than three million!

Director Li said with a smile: "When the time comes, tell me, I'll tell Manager Huang again, let the company allocate the remaining funds, and then you can officially prepare." ”

"Director, I want to ask you one more question."

"What?"

"It's the script when it's filming, in the casting, in the selection of the director, whether the company decides, or ....."

Director Li smiled: "You are a screenwriter, of course you decide!" After all, you are the one who knows your story best, and you know best what kind of actors you should choose for each role.

Of course, if you don't know or are not familiar with the star actors or directors in the circle by then, we can also recommend them for you. ”

"Okay, thank you, Director."

Song Yi said: "When you are free, I will invite you to a meal." ”

"There's no hurry."

Director Li stopped: "When you shoot it, it's not too late for us to have a celebration banquet together." ”

"Okay, that's a deal."

When Song Yi was leaving, Director Li suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, the filming of the new reality show next week may still require you to keep an eye on it, and you can contact Director Wan yourself." ”

"Okay, I got it."

Song Yi inexplicably remembered Tang Wanqing, as if she would be the eternal female supporting actress in the guest list of the next issue.

When the time comes, she must be surprised to see herself.

Director Li thought that Song Yi was a little reluctant and wanted to rush to get his crew's affairs.

So he walked over, patted Song Yi on the shoulder, and comforted: "No way, you work hard, there are not enough people in the group, and when the filming is over, I will change to someone else, and when the time comes, you can prepare your crew with peace of mind, and the company will fully support you wherever it can help." ”

"Thank you, Director."

Looking at the back of Song Yi leaving, Director Li was in a good mood.

Just now he called himself "Director" instead of "Director Li".

This shows that his relationship with him has been one step closer through what happened just now.

Whether you have cultivated a capable producer assistant or a gold medal screenwriter, fools know how to choose!

The credit to the company is simply a world, an underground, and it is completely incomparable!

Director Li guessed that Manager Huang was willing to take some risks with him, and it is estimated that in addition to Song Yi's somewhat vague background, he also took a fancy to his screenwriting ability.

Although the script this time is not the right type and is a little unpopular, his talent and strength have been reflected.

Even if the script is not popular this time, what if he writes the right direction next time and the script becomes popular?

Song Yi is fully capable of becoming a gold medal screenwriter in the future.
