148 Chen Xi's new project
When Director Xu heard Zheng Xu talk about the script, he was instantly interested, this product may not be interested in other things, but when it comes to making money, he is particularly interested.
"I haven't seen a shadow yet, I'm doing the story framework planning in the early stage of the script, I want to rest and rest recently, isn't it a little idle, just get it."
Zheng Xu's eyes narrowed, he didn't like to contact Director Xu very much, not that he was a bad person.
It's that this person is too snobbish.
To put it bluntly, this kind of person only talks about money and not friendship, and he doesn't even bother to pretend.
While it may be easy for such a person to live on his own, it will not be easy for those who work with him, especially for those who know him!
You have to worry all the time, I don't know when, he will sell you.
For this kind of person with different ways, Zheng Xu just wants to perfunctory him, forget it in the past, if it weren't for Chen Xi's relationship with him, Zheng Xu didn't even want to borrow their shell last time.
That's it... For fear of owing favors, Zheng Xu also took out millions of funds to help him.
Everyone exchanges interests, and no one owes anyone.
"Haha, that's okay, the box office came out a few days ago, I thought when we would come out for a get-together? Tell us about the split? β
Director Xu said in a relaxed tone about dividends.
"What's the point of that? Follow the rules. β
Zheng Xu listened to Director Xu's words, a little strange, at the beginning, Director Xu saved the crew to shoot "Thai Embarrassment", and he couldn't even make up 30 million, and finally Zheng Xu took out millions of dollars for investment, and then borrowed them a shell, flashing the materials that the media sent to South Korea to shoot, and finally used it in the film "Above the Yellow Sea".
When "Above the Yellow Sea" was broadcast, it was ripped off because of this matter, but Zheng Xu's dead pig was not boiled, I finished filming, and I didn't deliberately smear you, no matter who you protest or not, as long as you don't violate the rules, it should be broadcast as it is.
Therefore, this matter is an opportunity for Zheng Xu to pay for it, but he didn't implicate Director Xu, so there are rules for investment and dividends, why do you suddenly want to talk about dividends now?
"Ahem... It's still time to talk, we didn't sign a contract at the time, did we? β
Although Director Xu's voice was a little dry, the meaning was very clear.
"Oh? Scold... What does Director Xu want to talk about? β
Zheng Xu understands now, people are preparing to cross the river and tear down the bridge.
"Director Zheng... Everyone is a director, you know some things, my side seems to have a good box office, but the early publicity, buying the box office, and making up red envelopes for the actors, all of which have to be paid, let's calculate the money first, so as not to cause controversy when we get it..."
Hehe, Made, Zheng Xu listened to the voice from the microphone, and looked at the words "Thai Embarrassment Sweeps 1.3 Billion" on the news on the screen.
Isn't that ironic?
With an investment of 35 million and a box office of nearly 1.3 billion, even if half of the profits are cut, how much is left?
The rest of the money is divided into seven parts, how much can Zheng Xu take?
This... Money is moving.
Now it's pulling around and starting to cry poor?
Zheng Xu wanted to see how he was going to operate.
"I don't think I need to talk about it, Director Xu, we were introduced to each other by Chen Xi, I believe in you, you can divide it however you want, I still have some things to do here."
Zheng Xu was too lazy to talk to him, hung up the phone and dialed Xiao Wang's phone easily, how long has the network department not been dispatched?
Is no one afraid of him anymore, even his money dares to be black, and he is not too hot.
My Zheng Xu's money is black if you want to be black?
................
"Xiao Wang? I remember some time ago, didn't Korean reporters protest against our "Above the Yellow Sea"? You put some information out and take a belt to Director Xu, and is the box office of "Thai Embarrassment" a bit empty? Find some information for them to buy the box office and order "Thai Embarrassment", Director Xu has been proud of the spring breeze recently, and he is a little idle, so find something to do for him. β
Wang Yi, the head of the network department, after several years of training, is still steady, and after listening to Zheng Xu's words, he understands what it means.
Putting down the phone, Zheng Xu sneered at the glaring news on the screen.
It's really special that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, and they have been working as actors for a long time, do you think that the routine of the producers in the film and television industry is still the same as that in the entertainment industry?
is also too naΓ―ve, Zheng Xu didn't even sign the contract because some things couldn't be written on paper at that time.
He decided that he didn't dare to hack this money.
But now some people are bold, and the principal is estimated not to be black, but it is divided into hands and feet, which is much more than the principal!
Zheng Xu doesn't play much in theaters now, but it is precisely because he doesn't play theaters that he has a little relationship with major theaters.
Arrange something big, it is estimated that it can't be done, but check whether the box office is false or not, what is the problem?
It's a phone call, and sometimes, it's not the opponent who wants you to die the most, but the peer.
Give money honestly, Zheng Xu can still look at him, this first film has not landed yet, and he began to cross the river and demolish the bridge, Director Xu really wiped his ass with gauze, and he missed a hand.
It's too crude.
......................
Zheng Xu is making plans slowly, and now he has a lot of money in his hands, and there is a project that will land soon.
When the new drama is launched, more small money can come.
As the saying goes, money is a cowardice, and everything is easy to do when you have money.
It's somewhat unwise to put so much money there to eat interest.
But Zheng Xu didn't want to get involved in areas he didn't understand.
Some of the protagonists in the books imagine that they will become the richest man after investing in a few years, which seems tempting, but this behavior is tantamount to suicide in Zheng Xu's opinion.
Not to mention how to understand all walks of life, how to ensure that they are not cheated, even if the investment in each industry can make a lot of money, what is the experience of later generations to open the golden finger and become the richest man.
Let's just say that even children know what to do when pigs are fattened?
If you don't kill and eat meat, do you still keep it for the New Year?
Since ancient times, how can anyone kill a pig after the year?
He Zheng Xu is now young and strong, and he still wants to survive until the country opens up the three-child policy, with both children and many grandchildren.
I don't want to open my eyes one day, and my name has changed from Director Zheng to Zheng.
Therefore, to be content, to be introverted, to be wealthy, not to meddle in any industry, to leave some leeway.
The money in this world is endless, what is the richest man, who loves to be whom.
Zheng Xu likes money, and prefers the kind of money he earns from making films and engaging in construction, but to put it bluntly, the money has reached a certain point, and it is enough.
The purpose of his future money is not to make money, but to maintain, to be stable, and not to be so aggressive.
...................
Rested at home for a few days.
On this day, at five o'clock in the afternoon, Zheng Xu was wearing home clothes at home and was doing housework with a mop, Wang Ou called and informed him to attend a dinner in the evening.
Chen Xi's bureau is just the three of them.
These two old ladies, just three of them, ate at home, and went out to eat with a fake karma, the key is that Chen Xi also picked a Japanese restaurant.
Speaking of Japanese restaurants, Zheng Xu vomited, whether it was all kinds of sashimi, or seafood or abalone.
It's only been a few days off now.
Now winter is not too cold as soon as February passes.
are all their own people, Zheng Xu picked a set of casual clothes, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt on the upper body and jeans on the lower body.
Put on a down vest and go out.
With a black mask, people who are not particularly familiar with him don't have to be afraid of others recognizing him.
After all, as a director, he is extremely famous locally, but to tell the truth, he is still not as good as a second- or third-tier actor.
Because he doesn't show his face much!
.................
The taxi stopped at the door of the Japanese restaurant, Zheng Xu, the newly opened store, had never been here, and followed the waiter to see while walking, the environment was not bad.
The Japanese restaurant opened in Yan Country, as long as it is larger, the decoration is generally more luxurious than the authentic Japanese restaurant in the island country.
It's not that it's luxurious, it's just that the feeling is more comfortable than when you were in the island country, except that the dishes may not be as authentic as the island country, and everything else beats them domestic.
When I walked into the private room, I saw that the two of them had already drunk, and there were four positions waiting for Zheng Xu to come, and there was still one missing.
"Didn't Sister Xi say that it was just the three of us? How? Anyone else didn't come? β
Zheng Xu took off his vest and hung it on the hanger, took off his shoes and went to the kang!
Chen Xi's face flashed with an unnatural look of embarrassment, and Zheng Xu didn't pay attention.
After Zheng Xu sat cross-legged, Chen Xi raised his glass first and said, "Lao Zheng!" Good luck winning the Oscars again! It also gave us a flash and a flash of media to bring another layer up, hard work! β
"Haha, Sister Xi, this is a little polite..."Zheng Xu held the wine cup and touched her, and then touched Wang Ou, and the three of them were bored.
Looking at Chen Xi's posture that was obviously something, Zheng Xu didn't move his chopsticks, put down the wine cup and looked at Chen Xi like this.
"Tsk... Lao Zheng, look at this. Chen Xi thought about it for a while, took out a thin plan from his bag and handed it to Zheng Xu.
οΌ
Zheng Xu looked at the plan handed over, and when he turned the first page, he frowned, he seemed to understand something.
This is a synopsis of the script, and the title of the film is "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night".
There is also a specific amount of investment on it, and in the end, the actor has almost been determined, and only a few supporting roles are still vacant.
looked at the leading actors, didn't look at the plot carefully, Zheng Xu closed the plan and put it on the table.
didn't rush to speak, took a sip of tea first, and Zheng Xu asked Chen Xi: "Which company is Sister Xi going to invest in this drama?" β
βοΌοΌοΌβ
βοΌοΌοΌβ
Wang Ou and Chen Xi both looked at Zheng Xu at the same time.
Wang Ou was a little puzzled, why Zheng Xu said this.
And Chen Xi mixed a lot outside after all, as soon as Zheng Xu finished speaking, she slowed down for a few seconds and understood what it meant.
They all handed the plan to Zheng Xu, but Zheng Xu actually asked which company he was going to invest in?
What is the implicit meaning of this?
Isn't that he didn't want to invest, so he politely refused! But Chen Xi still wants to give it a try.
"Lao Zheng is not optimistic about this drama?"
"Hey..."Zheng Xu looked at Chen Xi and sighed.
How did such a shrewd person become like this when it came to things?
"Sister Xi, there are still people who haven't come today, right?" Zheng Xu didn't answer directly, but looked at the vacant position and asked.
"Uh... My brother is a little busy, and he can't come temporarily..."Answering this question, Chen Xi was still a little embarrassed.
"Heh... There's no drama to pick up, and you're still busy, and your friend is also interesting enough. β
Zheng Xu gave Chen Xi a thumbs up with some sarcasm.
This made Chen Xi even more embarrassed.
Zheng Xu didn't wait for her to continue asking, and said to himself: "Sister Xi, what about me... Not only the director, but I'm also the boss of the flash, so many people under my command eat with me, the drama is a good drama, but you have even arranged the starring role, what are we doing to take over in a flash? When the green leaves hold people? β
"We've known each other for so long, and I usually do a favor, and I won't say so much, but what's going on with this kind of drama, let Da Lei Erlei play a supporting role for him? I can't do anything like that..."
"Hey... There are a lot of people under my hands, and although we won't do that kind of thing that doesn't suffer from widowhood and unevenness, I can't let the people below be wronged. β
After Zheng Xu finished speaking, he stood up, looked at Wang Ou, who was a little dazed, and said, "Let's go, I suddenly want to eat a bowl of snail noodles, accompany me to eat a bowl, and let Sister Xi be quiet here." β
....................
Out of the Japanese restaurant, both of them took a sip of wine, the car can't be driven, just leave it here, and let someone pick it up tomorrow.
"Huh? How do you say that you can just go? If you don't vote, you won't vote. "Wang Ou hasn't revisited it yet.
She has seen the plan, a suspense drama, one person plays two roles, which is quite novel.
Zheng Xu smiled, took her little hand, and the two of them walked along the side of the road and said.
"Heh... The main protagonist didn't come, and you still want to invite us to make a drama? Think about it, what are all of us? Yes...? I'm an Oscar-winning director, and I take a large group of people in our company to support an outsider? β
"Are you overthinking?" Wang Ou was still a little hesitant.
"Don't care if you're thinking too much, even if this matter is Chen Xi's own initiative, what does this have to do with me? Do I have to think about it so much? I'm thinking about it from my point of view, and it's not a question of making money or not. β
Zheng Xu didn't want to guess so much, he just had to think about things related to Yishanyi Media and himself.
Today's plan that Chen Xi is engaged in, to put it bluntly, what kind of script is the script?
Big male protagonist!
What is a big male protagonist?
The whole play revolves around a protagonist, who is the big male protagonist!
Still don't get it?
Just look at "The Legend of Zhen Huan", that drama is a big heroine.
Although this kind of drama can be brilliant if the supporting roles are played well, does the current Twinkle Media need to rely on this kind of drama to be brilliant?
People even arranged the protagonist, so there was no role left for him and Flashing Media to shine.
How much money can you make for a project like this that even has a good budget?
How rare is he Zheng Xu?
Treat him like a cat and a dog?
Wang Ou was a little apprehensive after hearing this, she really didn't expect this, it was not that she was not shrewd enough, but that she had been with Chen Xi a lot, and the angle was unnatural and was brought to Chen Xi's position.
But where should she stand?
She should be in the position of Twinkle Media, which is fundamentally different.
"That's... Today's incident is considered a stale...? β
"Snort... No, you women sometimes do things like this, you usually seem to be very shrewd, it involves yourself, sensibility overcomes reason, it is easy to get started, Chen Xi is probably anxious, I have made it clear, pulling you out is to let her be quiet there, let her think about it by herself, it's not a big deal. β
