Chapter 167: Negotiated Appointments
What Yan Bin said is actually a problem that Mike is worried about, science fiction films have always been the hardest hit area of domestic films, except for one The Wandering Earth out of the circle, most of the word-of-mouth is not very good.
Moreover, this is not the type he is good at, no one wants the reputation he has accumulated with great difficulty to be ruined by a bad movie in the end.
Seeing that Yanbin was not interested, Mike had no choice but to ask Xiao Ke to call back Weihua Film and Television, saying that he was not interested in this film, so he should find someone else.
Xiao Ke pouted, and always let her do the things that refuse others.
Xiao Ke quickly dialed the phone of the Weihua Film and Television Choreographer: "Hey, hello, our agent has already read the script you sent, I'm sorry, it's not very suitable for Yan Bin, I hope your company can find a suitable actor as soon as possible!" ”
The choreographer team told Meng Jinhua the news as soon as possible, Meng Jinhua didn't expect them to refuse so quickly, she immediately took the phone, saying that she wanted to talk directly to Yan Bin's agent to communicate with each other.
Mike hurriedly waved his hand to refuse, Meng Jinhua was notoriously difficult, but he didn't expect Xiao Ke to agree the fastest.
Mike was a little helpless, so he had to pick up the phone and say, "Hey, Sister Hua, I'm Mike, I always thought that you were still at your old club, when did you go out to start a company alone, why don't you inform my little brother, so I can send you some flower baskets over and make it lively for you." ”
"The company has just started, be low-key first, and you are welcome to come over for tea at any time." Meng Jinhua responded with a smile, "By the way, why are you not satisfied with the sci-fi script I handed you?" If there is something you want to adjust, you can change it. ”
Mike's voice was slightly low: "I've read the script, it's still very good, but it really doesn't fit our family's Yanbin's way." ”
Meng Jinhua was noncommittal: "I know that your family Yanbin shoots a lot of ancient costumes and historical dramas, but the science fiction theme is also a hot topic in recent years, so you can still try it." ”
Mike sighed and confessed, "Sister Hua, we are all so acquainted, I'll tell you the truth." The main reason is that domestic technology can't keep up, and it is difficult for science fiction films to produce results. Yan Bin finally managed to save a good reputation......"
Knowing Mike's concerns, Meng Jinhua directly clarified the main point: "It turns out that you are worried about this, so you don't have to think too much about it at all." The investment cost of most domestic science fiction films is about 2-3 billion, but this film is the first SSS-level project of our Weihua Film and Television this year, and our investment budget is about one billion, and we will invite Hollywood Tungsten's top special effects team and internationally renowned directors to come, so you don't have to worry about this at all. ”
"A good script + a good special effects team + good actors + a good director, I can't say that this film will definitely be popular, but at least it ensures its quality, right? There is no need to be afraid that after filming this movie, it will affect Yan Bin's reputation. ”
"Well, then I'll think about it again." Mike was a little moved, the film investment of 1 billion cost investment is definitely very little, if you can really make a masterpiece in the end, wouldn't it be fame and fortune?
And Mike also hopes that Yan Bin can try different types. After all, if you have been filming the same type of film and television drama, the audience's aesthetics will be fatigued.
Meng Jinhua knew that Mike's heart was already shaken, and added: "I really don't have to think about it, then I'll be honest with you, this project is definitely a sweet spot." Yan Bin is not the only actor to be selected in my hand, but I still think he is the most suitable male protagonist for this film, so I will hand you the book as soon as possible. If Yan Bin refuses now, he will definitely regret it in the future. ”
At this time, the assistant on the side also pretended to shout: "Sister Hua, the Luha team just called, saying that they read our script, said that they liked it very much, and wanted to ask us to have a good chat!" ”
Mike also heard Meng Jinhua's voiceover, and immediately responded: "Sister Hua, then let's make an appointment to come to our studio to meet and talk in detail, do you see that you are free at ten o'clock tomorrow morning?" ”
"No problem!"
After hanging up the phone, Meng Jinhua finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It is not easy to invite Yan Bin, who is now hot in the film industry, to participate in this sci-fi film.
Subsequently, Meng Jinhua called Xia Wei again, saying that she had already negotiated with Yan Bin's team to meet tomorrow to discuss film cooperation, and asked Xia Wei if she was interested in going over together?
Xia Wei was naturally 10,000 willing, and immediately agreed.
Xia Wei came to her cloakroom to choose her favorite style for tomorrow's meeting.
She casually took out a small fragrance suit, Chanaina's clothes are full of femininity, but they lack a business atmosphere.
I flipped over to a polka-dot dress designed by Yayoi Kusama, the color was bold, but it was too lively.
Xia Wei chose for a long time, and finally she locked her eyes on Saint Laulan's smoking suit, white shirt, bow tie, and black dress suit, blurring the line between men and women, and not being too rigid while remaining cool.
Ten o'clock the next day
Meng Jinhua and Xia Wei arrived at the office of Yanbin Film and Television Studio on time.
Mike was already waiting at the door of the studio, and when he saw Meng Jinhua and them coming in, he immediately waved forward to greet him: "Sister Hua, long time no see!" ”
Meng Jinhua also smiled and waved her hand in response: "Yes, we haven't seen each other for at least seven or eight years, I didn't expect you to get better and better." ”
Mike instinctively looked at Xia Wei, who walked in with Meng Jinhua, with a beautiful face, skin like cream, even if she wears light makeup, she is a beauty embryo, and her appearance is not inferior to most female stars.
"Who is this?"
"Let me introduce you to you, this is my partner, the big boss of the company, Xia Wei, Mr. Wei!"
A flash of surprise flashed in Mike's eyes, he thought that this was the actor who was going to be stuffed into the movie, but he didn't expect it to be the owner of the film and television company.
Seeing that she is young, she can be on an equal footing with Meng Jinhua, and even poached her from her old club to start a company together, it seems that the means and abilities are not enough.
Xiao Ke, who was following Mike, was even more shocked when he saw Xia Wei, wasn't this the passerby girl that Yan Bin accidentally bumped into two days ago? I didn't expect it to be the boss of a film and television company, and if the real person is not good-looking......
Xia Wei also noticed Xiao Ke's expression and winked at her.
Mike invited them to walk forward: "Come, the tea and snacks in the conference room are ready, let's go there and talk." ”
Several people sat down together, Xia Wei looked around, saw that Yan Bin was not there, and asked, "Isn't Yan Bin coming to talk together?" ”
Mike subconsciously touched his nose: "Yan Bin still hasn't finished filming today, come back in about an hour, let's talk first." ”
