Feng Bingbing didn't expect to meet a few people at the celebration banquet.

Seeing Zhou Cheng and their high-profile departure in Maybach at the airport, Feng Bingbing asked the company's public relations department to investigate the identities of several people.

Chen Li, a rookie director, is famous, but there is nothing else special.

Zhou Cheng, a graduate of Nortel's Department of Literature, did not engage in screenwriting after graduation, but became an agent and brought an artist who was not in the stream. Although his script was supported by the film festival, it still did not enter Feng Bingbing's eyes.

In the end, it seems that the most background among the three should be the tallest and most handsome, but Chu Ran who deliberately sat in the co-pilot. Because the Maybach they are riding in is registered by a person who has almost monopolized the dairy supply of the entire city of Ningxi, and the Ninghe Dairy Industry. And the boss of this company is surnamed Chu.

According to the feedback given by the capital, Chu Ran has been in and out of the party held by the rich second generation of Yanjing many times, and he should be the son of the boss of Ninghe Dairy, and he is a standard rich second generation.

Before Feng Bingbing became independent and became a famous Feng Ye, she still didn't mind associating with a rich second generation, especially with a super rich second generation with family assets of more than one billion.

You must know that at this time, Wu Kebo, the boss of Orange Sky Entertainment, is worth less than one billion, and he can already call for wind and rain in the circle. Even Feng Bingbing has been thinking for a while that she should simply marry a rich second generation and be a carefree young grandmother.

At the celebration banquet, as a popular artist, Feng Bingbing has been accosted by others, and the people who attended the banquet tonight were all insiders, and there were many media mixed in, Feng Bingbing never got a chance. In the end, Wu Kebo, the boss of the company, said that he introduced a few people to her to get to know her, and she was able to get out.

Watching Wu Kebo walk towards Chu Ran and the others, Feng Bingbing originally thought that he was looking for Chu Ran, but he didn't expect Wu Kebo to talk to Zhou Cheng about film and television investment.

"Mr. Wu, if you want to invest, I will definitely welcome it. It's just my little project, you may not be able to see it? ”

Feng Bingbing shook hands with Chu Ran, she thought that Zhou Cheng would be full of joy when she heard Wu Kebo's investment, but she didn't expect the other party to show some reluctance.

Zhou Cheng needed investment, but when Zhou Cheng and Chen Li decided to attract investment from other companies, they excluded Huayi, Guangguang and Orange Sky.

The main reason is that the investment conditions of these companies are too harsh, they will take away the distribution rights, and increase the publicity and distribution costs, so that the paper investment cost of the whole film will increase.

And if you invest more than 10 million, you will trigger the box office sharing agreement signed with Renyi. Renyi will invest three million to ask for a fixed box office share, and the higher the final paper cost, the less profit will fall into Zhou Cheng's hands.

"Why does Boss Zhou refuse people thousands of miles away?" Wu Kebo also heard the meaning of Zhou Cheng's words, looked left and right, and smiled at Zhou Cheng: "Is it convenient for Boss Zhou to borrow a step to speak?" ”

The other party's status in the circle is higher than his own, and Zhou Cheng has no reason to refuse, so he nodded to Chu Ran and made a reassuring gesture. Chu Ran waved at him, he was about to get to know Feng Bingbing, hoping that Zhou Cheng wouldn't disturb him.

"Boss Wu, I don't know if you have any advice?" Zhou Cheng followed Wu Kebo to a sofa area.

Wu Kebo beckoned Zhou Cheng to sit opposite, and said: "Our company has actually learned about your script from the organizing committee, and the company has also given a certain evaluation. It's a rare absurd comedy script in the past two years. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your compliment." Zhou Cheng did not doubt that the other party had discovered the content of the script in advance. I believe that the several film and television companies that I just proposed to me have also explored their own scripts.

"It's just that it's a little difficult for you to make your own production, you lack the economic strength and distribution ability, and the director you are looking for is also unknown, and there is no box office appeal at all."

"What about Mr. Wu's opinion?" Zhou Cheng knew the intention of the other party's move to raise first and then suppress, and asked quietly.

Wu Kebo saw that the foreshadowing was almost there, and began to say his original intention: "Our company's idea is to invest 20 million yuan to shoot this film, you can rely on the script copyright to buy shares, and our company will help you solve all the problems in shooting and distribution." ”

"Mr. Wu is very generous." Zhou Cheng smiled quietly.

Wu Kebo didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in Zhou Cheng's words, and then said: "In terms of directors, we can invite director Cheng Kexin to direct, he has always wanted to shoot a comedy film after filming "Casting Names". After all, Chen Li is young, he can be an assistant director for Director Cheng, and after accumulating a certain amount of experience, he will direct independently, which will be better for his development. ”

Seeing that Zhou Cheng didn't reply, Wu Kebo continued to increase: "You also know that our company's artist brokerage is in charge of Sister Hua, as long as you need actors, there is basically nothing that Sister Hua can't handle." Even if you want Feng Bingbing to star, I can promise you. ”

Wu Kebo's chips are really tempting, from funds to famous directors to actors, it seems that they are all considered from Zhou Cheng's side. If Zhou Cheng was just an inexperienced and fledgling screenwriter, it is estimated that his rhetoric would have been boiling at this time.

He's got several pits buried in it. First of all, with a total investment of 20 million, let Zhou Cheng take the copyright as a shareholder, and this copyright can account for 1% of the good, if Zhou Cheng wants to gain the right to speak, he must find a way to increase the investment share.

Cheng Kexin's directing is just a pretense, according to Zhou Cheng's understanding of Cheng Kexin, the other party should be busy with the publicity of "Casting a Name" at this time. Even if the release of "Vote for Fame" ends, Cheng Kexin, who has lost a lot of money, will not take this small-budget movie, and he needs to take another big production "October Siege" to fill the hole.

The actors are even more uncontrollable, not to mention whether Sister Hua will give you the opportunity to pick and choose, even if you are selected, they can easily send you away if they tell you that there is no schedule or that the salary needs to be increased.

Knowing that the other party was digging a pit, Zhou Cheng did not have the strength to turn his face directly.

With the joining of Wang Jinghua, Orange Sky Entertainment has faintly become a leading enterprise in domestic entertainment, and recently it is operating the acquisition of Golden Harvest Pictures in Xiangjiang. Zhou Cheng knew that he couldn't let the other party continue, and when the other party finished saying all the conditions, he offended people by showing that he was refusing.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for your kindness. It's just that the drama copyright of this play has been sold to Yanjing Renyi, and there was an additional agreement at the beginning, and the film producer Renyi has the right of first refusal to invest, and the investment amount is as high as 30%. As a lonely man, Zhou Cheng had no choice but to pull Yanjing Renyi as a shield.

"Thirty percent investment?"

"Yes, 30% investment." Zhou Cheng pretended to be remorseful: "This is also to blame for me being too young and not understanding the operation of film and television shooting." At that time, Renyi also had additional conditions, if the total investment exceeded 10 million, Renyi would invest up to 3 million, and also take 30% of the fixed income. ”

"Thirty percent fixed income?" Wu Kebo was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Zhou Cheng as if he was seeing an idiot.

If it is only a three-percent investment, Wu Kebo still has the confidence to communicate with Renyi, but it is really impossible to increase the investment budget through capital operation, so that Yiyi will give up part of his rights and interests despite the difficulties. But later Zhou Cheng said that if the talent and art should be fixed to take away 30% of the income, it will be difficult to operate. Even if Orange Sky Entertainment can reduce the other party's income by making fake accounts and stealing the box office in the end, it will invisibly offend Renyi, a relatively transcendent circle in Yanjing. This kind of operation is too risky to make a profit.

"Mr. Wu, you have a wide range of contacts, and you are also one of the best figures in the Yanjing film and television industry, can you help me communicate with Renyi and ask them to give up this condition?" Zhou Cheng climbed up the pole and made a request to Wu Kebo instead.

Wu Kebo felt very sorry in his heart, mainly regretting this project: "I have been in the Xiangjiang film and television industry before, and I don't know much about Yanjing Renyi. Xiao Zhou, your request is a little helpless. ”

After Wu Kebo finished speaking, he was about to find an excuse to leave, but he found that Feng Bingbing, who came with him, had already had a good conversation with a friend of Zhou Cheng over there. I could only take a sip and turn away.

"At the airport that day, my bodyguard almost ran into Mr. Chu, I'm really sorry." Feng Bingbing said sorry in his mouth, but his expression did not have a trace of apology, but a trace of charm. She didn't care what Wu Kebo talked about with Zhou Cheng, she was obviously more interested in Chu Ran

"Miss Feng is too polite." Chu Ran secretly screamed as a goblin, and then said: "It should be that I am embarrassed, it was the driver at home who was ignorant that day, and he stopped in front of Miss Feng's car, which almost made Miss Feng misunderstand." ”

"Gongzi Chu turned out to be from Ningxi." Hearing Chu Ran admit his identity, Feng Bingbing suddenly showed a hint of embarrassment: "I finally came to Qinghai this time, and I was going to go to Qinghai Lake with my team to take some photos." It's just that we don't know the place here, so we don't know how to get there. ”

Hearing Feng Bingbing's invitation, Chu Ran pretended to be confused: "Qinghai Lake is not far from Ningxi. There are quite a few travel lines to go to, which can be seen opposite the Ningxi bus station. If Miss Feng is not convenient, she can also place an order through the front desk of the hotel, and there will be a special travel agency to provide services at that time. ”

Chu Ran pretended to have an innocent expression, so that Feng Bingbing didn't know if he really didn't understand the mood or if he was deliberately pretending to be confused, and his teeth itched with hatred.

However, just when Feng Bingbing thought that he was a Lu man who didn't understand the amorous feelings, Chu Ran's tone of words changed and proposed: "Actually, Qinghai Lake is too ordinary, and many celebrities go to take pictures every year. If Miss Feng really wants to take a beautiful photo, prepare it tomorrow, and how about I take you to Chaka Salt Lake the day after tomorrow? ”

"Chaka Salt Lake?" Feng Bingbing, who was about to leave, looked at Chu Ran in some surprise.

"Yes, Chaka Salt Lake." Chu Ran smiled mysteriously: "Let you see how beautiful the Chaka Salt Lake, which we call the 'Mirror of China', is." ”
