After the casting was busy, Chen Zhixi immediately contacted Zeng Li.

There is no need to contact the agent, she has a phone number that has left.

"Hey, have you ever left?"

"Producer Chen, it's me."

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu has just decided that you will play the heroine of our movie.

In terms of salary, you don't have to worry, our crew gives the highest salary in the industry at the moment.

Do you think there is time in these two days to come to the company to sign the contract? Chen Zhixi asked.

"Thank you so much, Producer Chen. I also thank Director Gu for his attention, and I will go over tomorrow morning to sign the contract. ”

Zeng Li looked pleasantly surprised and said gratefully.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the company tomorrow morning."

All the actors of "Detective Chinatown" have been decided, and Yang Liwen has brought him another good news, the box office of [Embroidered Spring Knife] has been shared.

Now in Gu Wei's account, in addition to the original remaining 12 million, plus the new arrival of 36.5 million, and then the expenses used to buy copyrights during this time, there are about 45 million funds left.

According to the agreement he signed with China Film and other three companies, the investment in [Detective Chinatown] is 70 million, and Gu Wei accounts for 70% of the share, so he needs to contribute 49 million.

Gu Wei made a phone call, and then called Yang Liwen over, "Sister Yang, prepare for the procedures for [Chinatown Detective], as well as the company's procedures, follow me in a while." ”

Bank of Communications

Gu Wei took Yang Liwen and got out of the car at the door of the Bank of Communications, and President Guo was already waiting at the door to greet him.

"Mr. Gu, welcome, welcome, hurry up inside, please." President Guo greeted Gu Wei warmly, stepped forward to shake hands, and then guided him to the senior VIP room inside.

Gu Wei took Yang Liwen to sit down, and President Guo personally made tea for them.

"This is the last time I went to the head office, and I took the Mingqian Longjing from the big bank, and I have not been willing to drink it, Mr. Gu, Manager Yang, you two taste it."

After saying that, I poured myself a glass.

Gu Wei held the tea tray in one hand, filtered the foam on the surface of the tea with the tea lid with the other, and took a sip slightly.

"Good tea." Gu Wei sighed.

His father loves to drink tea, and the family also has a collection of some different grades of tea, often drinking with his father, and over time he can also drink some of the taste of tea.

President Guo was very happy to hear this,

"I have two taels left, and you can take them for Mr. Gu in a while."

"How can a gentleman win the love of others?"

"Eh~ I don't drink tea either, good tea is only valuable in the hands of people like Mr. Gu, who can taste tea." President Guo complimented

"President Guo is so polite, but I am disrespectful." Gu Wei smiled, and then began to talk about business.

"President Guo, I came today because I have two things to do."

Governor Guo was also sitting on his side, he actually knew in his heart what Gu Wei was here for

"Mr. Gu, please speak."

"First of all, the return rate of the movie [Embroidered Spring Knife] that my company invested in before is not bad, and I made some money, and I came to pay off the loan."

"Mr. Gu, you are humble, a layman like me knows how popular your movie is. There is no problem in settling the loan, and there are many excellent wealth management products for you to choose from. Governor Guo knew that Gu Wei was making a lot of money, and began to promote the bank's products.

"Governor Guo, come slowly. I have one more thing. My company has now invested in a new movie, and just like last time, I hope to use the proceeds of this movie as collateral to refinance a new loan. ”

Gu Wei said slowly.

When President Guo heard this, not only was it not difficult to do, but he looked very happy.

"No problem, Mr. Gu, Lao Guo will give you a guarantee for this matter, as long as we have the same procedures as last time, the amount and interest will be the most preferential this time."

Governor Guo didn't expect such a surprise, banks like to lend money to people with money.

The more successful the company is, the more money he makes, and the more he wants to give him a loan.

The success of Gu Wei's [Embroidered Spring Knife] also gave him the confidence to fight for a more lenient policy from the bank.

Settle the previous loan of 8 million first.

Gu Wei asked Yang Liwen to take out all the prepared procedures, including the agreements signed with three companies including China Film.

President Guo looked at the materials for a while, looked up and said

"Mr. Gu, no problem, our procedures are formal and complete.

And this time the investment is larger, and there are three well-known film and television companies involved, so there will definitely be no problem with lending.

How much do you want to borrow this time? Governor Gu asked cautiously.

"40 million, do you see a problem?" Gu Wei asked.

President Guo thought for a while and said, "No problem, this amount is no problem, in fact, it can be higher." ”

"40 million is enough, and I have to work hard again." Gu Wei said

"Mr. Gu doesn't have to be polite to me, you can come to me for a loan, just to look up to me Guo.

Things will definitely be done for you. ”

With the assistance of President Guo, Gu Wei went through the application process again and signed.

It's all done, Governor Guo said

"Mr. Gu, please go again tomorrow, the process this time should be faster, tomorrow you come over to sign the loan agreement, and the money will be in your account."

"Thank you" shook hands with President Guo and took Yang Liwen back to the company.

In the car, Gu Wei said to Yang Liwen, "Sister Yang, I have to ask headhunters to recruit a general manager for [Wei Mingxia Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd.], who is responsible for the overall work of film and television drama production." ”

From Yang Liwen to Gu Wei as an agent to the present, Gu Wei found that she was a qualified agent, but it was not good to manage the company and coordinate film and television production.

It turned out that Gu Wei only owned a small personal studio, and all he needed to deal with was Gu Wei's own various matters.

Now that [Wei Mingxia Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd.) has been established, it is necessary to participate in film and television production, and Yang Liwen's ability is not enough. There has been little progress in the preparation of [Detective Chinatown] in the early stage, and it was not until Chen Zhixi came that the progress became faster.

Gu Wei plans to let Yang Liwen concentrate on his studio in the future, only being the manager of his studio and his own agent.

Find a professional to do things in film and television production.

"Okay, Mr. Gu, I'll do it, and let the headhunter recommend candidates as soon as possible."

Back at the company, Gu Wei brought Chen Zhixi over

"How are the preliminary preparations, have all the crews been formed?" Gu Wei asked

"The crew has almost been formed, thanks to the help of China Film and Light, it can be formed in such a short time."

Chen Zhixi replied.

"When will it turn on? I hope the sooner the better. ”

Chen Zhixi thought for a moment

"I still haven't chosen a good site, and I still need to communicate with the Thai side.

【Thailand】The great tropical has become popular in Thailand, and we will enjoy great discounts when we go there to shoot movies now.

Then there is the issue of the actor's schedule, and Baoqiang still has an event to participate in during the Chinese New Year.

Prepare everything before the year, and after the tenth day of the new year, you can prepare for the start-up press conference, and the official start-up. ”

With a producer like Chen Zhixi, making movies has become a simple matter.

Gu Wei, the director, can be said to have no worries.

The script was written at a cost, and the storyboard was done by the storyboarder, and if there was something wrong with the scene during the shooting, it would be changed.

From China Film invited an experienced but not well-known director to be Gu Wei's first assistant director, and through the relationship with Mr. Xu at the school, he found two unsatisfactory directors and signed them all to his company to be the second and third directors of this shooting.

Finally, there is Lu Yang, the producer.

This lineup, it seems that there is nothing to do with the director Gu Wei.

Of course not, everything has to be decided by Gu Wei in the end.

Hmm~, it's very important and hard for him to shoot this.
