Chapter 101: The Unpredictable World [1/3]
When he saw the script for the first time, Goofy felt a little cheesy.
"Big diamonds? Vulgar! ”
As soon as he saw the name of the movie, Goofy felt that he didn't look good.
So with disgust, he slowly opened the script and read it casually.
After reading the beginning, Goofy still had a determined look on his face.
After all, it is already an old-fashioned routine for a handicraft factory on the verge of closure to find a priceless piece of jade while renovating a public toilet.
No matter how it develops in the future, it is nothing more than to compete for this piece of jadeite.
Gao Fei doesn't know how many times he has seen a story like this.
So when he saw this, Gao Fei was actually already thinking in his heart, how to refuse the director who graduated from the agricultural trade department in front of him.
It was only soon that he couldn't help but frown.
"That's not right! Why can't I understand it all of a sudden? Did I miss a paragraph? ”
Thinking of this, Goofy immediately turned the page forward and looked at it intently again.
Seeing this, Ning Hao's seemingly honest face suddenly couldn't help but show a sly smile.
It's a pity that Goofy was immersed in the script at the moment and didn't see this scene.
However, after a few minutes of intently watching, Goofy couldn't help but nod slightly.
Because he found that Ning Hao's book was still quite interesting.
Bao Shihong, chief of the security section;
The Xiangjiang thief was hired by profiteers to steal stones;
The two lines are interspersed with each other, and Ning Hao can handle it in an orderly manner, chaotic but not chaotic.
Yes, that's a lot of work!
Thinking of this, Gao Fei had a slight change in his opinion of Ning Hao, but he still had no intention of investing and participating.
It's just that as he continued to look, Goofy's brows began to wrinkle deeper and deeper unconsciously.
"Wait...... Why can't I read it again? ”
"Another line?"
“(⊙o⊙)… Uh, no, there's another one? ”
"No, I'm a bit messy, I'll have to do it again."
When he saw the two lines of thieves stealing stones and Xie Xiaomeng, the son and brother, who replaced the stone bubble girl, appeared behind the script, Gao Fei suddenly felt that his brain was a little insufficient.
So I couldn't help but flip forward again and look at it again.
Seeing this, Ning Hao did not laugh at Gao Fei.
After all, he wrote the script, and he knew it all too well.
The four lines are parallel, interspersed with narratives that are inherently a bit difficult to understand.
What's more, the expressiveness of words is far less direct than that of movie images.
So when most people first read his script, they almost read it several times before they could fully understand it.
It's just that at this moment, Gao Fei can't care about what Ning Hao thinks.
After re-watching it again, Goofy noticed some small details that he had overlooked before.
When he realized that every story was interlocking, and every story line was mutually influencing and jointly promoting the development of the plot, Goofy suddenly realized that he couldn't help but laugh at the same time.
It's just that after laughing, he couldn't help but marvel at the ingenuity of the plot design, as well as the busy but not hurried, chaotic and chaotic story rhythm.
And at this moment, when Gao Fei looked at Ning Hao again, suddenly the man in front of him had a wise and foolish temperament.
's calm and honest appearance is simply a natural director.
So when he closed the script in his hand, he couldn't help but think silently.
Seeing this situation, Ning Hao knew that the most critical time had come, and even looked at Gao Fei with a nervous expression.
……
It is said that although Gao Fei is very satisfied with the script, he has never invested in movies after all.
As the saying goes, interlacing is like separating mountains.
So no matter how optimistic he is about the script, when he really asks him to pay for it, Gao Fei can't help but hesitate.
After all, this is not a small number of tens of thousands of dollars.
At the same time, Han Li saw that Goofy was pondering, so she also took the script and read it.
Although as Gao Fei's personal agent, Gao Fei is in charge of major matters.
But she will still try her best to put forward her own opinions and fill in the gaps for Gao Fei.
And after reading the script, Han Li finally understood why Gao Fei hesitated.
has been in the film and television industry for so long, and Han Li has naturally developed a certain ability in identifying scripts.
In her opinion, Ning Hao's script can no longer be described with good words.
Such a book,It's amazing!
As long as Ning Hao can shoot the effect of seven or eight points of the script, Han Li thinks that this is already an excellent movie.
And just when Han Li was guessing in her heart how much box office such a movie could have, Gao Fei finally made a decision.
Looking at Ning Hao's expectant eyes, Gao Fei didn't make a fuss.
When even straight to the point:
"I can invest in movies, if I'm not mistaken, you just said that there are still two million short, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Ning Hao's heart was suddenly overjoyed.
was just worried that something would happen, so he suppressed the joy in his heart and nodded sincerely:
"Yes, the original budget was 5 million."
Seeing him say this, Gao Fei immediately nodded happily and said:
"Okay, 2 million can be given to you!"
"As for joining the group for filming, from the actor's point of view, I don't have an opinion, I think the role of the international thief Mike is quite good."
"It's just that I still have a drama in October, so I can only give you a 20-day schedule, do you think this time is enough?"
Hearing this, Ning Hao first calculated silently, and then nodded without hesitation:
"That's no problem, I can focus on filming your scene first after the film starts."
Originally, the role of the international thief Mike was specially prepared by Ning Hao for Andy.
Before, he was still thinking about whether he could be cheeky and pull Hua Tsai over to make a cameo for two days.
But after the shrinkage of investment, he knew that this matter must be over.
So handing over this role to Gao Fei, Ning Hao is under no pressure.
To be honest, when Gao Fei agreed to invest, Ning Hao was already overjoyed.
This time he came to see Goofy, and he didn't actually have many expectations.
It was only out of insistence not to give up a single possibility that he found Gao Fei.
And inviting Gao Fei to participate in the show was Ning Hao's idea that came out of nowhere.
After all, no matter what Gao Fei says, he is the hottest popular student at the moment.
The big names who have cooperated with him are either Li Lianjie and Cheng Long, or Zhou Xingxing and Wang Jing.
So Ning Hao thought that if he could participate, maybe he would be able to make a lot more box office.
So this is the only way to make an impromptu invitation.
However, he purely played two shots with dates and without dates, and he didn't think that Gao Fei really agreed.
Therefore, when Gao Fei agreed to come down, it was a double surprise for Ning Hao.
For a while, he didn't care about the gaffe, and his face was full of smiles on the spot.
And when Gao Fei and Ning Ninghao reached a consensus on the two issues of investment and participation, the rest of the things were much easier to talk about.
However, Gao Fei did not come forward, but handed it over to Han Li to deal with.
Because when it comes to investment returns and remuneration, it is not entirely up to Ning Hao to call the shots, and he also needs to communicate with Andy.
Ning Hao also knew the rules in the circle, so he didn't think much about it, and contacted the person in charge of Andy's side on the spot and asked Han Li to communicate with the other party.
It's just that this time it took a bit of time for both sides.
After all, when it comes to money, everyone will always be cautious.
……
And this time, Han Li didn't open her mouth widely, and only raised 200,000 yuan on the basis of Gao Fei playing Nangong Yan.
To be honest, with the growth of popularity during this period of high flying, such a price is already very conscientious.
If it weren't for Gao Fei's intentions, Han Li would never agree to such an offer.
And Andy, after listening to the report of the person in charge, also knew that Gao Fei was giving him face.
Because Goofy has already invested two million.
If you add in the salary of one million, then Goofy's total investment is three million, which is exactly as much as the money he provides.
So he didn't think much about it, and agreed to Han Li's request for a 50% return on investment.
After all, if it weren't for Gao Fei's action, Andy actually felt that Ning Hao's project might be yellow.
Because he doesn't think 3 million can make any good movies.
At this point, the two sides finally reached a consensus.
Seeing this situation, Ning Hao on the side couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief.
It's just that on the way back, when Goofy remembered what had just happened, he still felt a little magical.
Obviously, when he went out, he just went to attend a movie premiere.
How did you come back and become an investor in a movie?
Life is really full of surprises!
It's like you can never predict what's going to happen in the world the next second......
