Chapter 9 Finally there is an investment

is still in the hall of Daifuku Film and Television Company, Li Shengyao is holding a bowl and burying his head in cooking.

Others were reading the script, including Liu Xiaoqing, Yan Danchen, as well as Li Dafu, and Zhao Shan.

It was already half past one o'clock in noon.

Liu Xiaoqing and the others had already had lunch, and Li Shengyao just let them eat first in order to catch up with the script, and only had lunch at this time.

The content of the first two episodes of "Funny Family" is still very funny.

Shuncai has two sons and three grandchildren, and it stands to reason that there is strength in numbers, but nothing goes well for the family.

He is a lewd and sensitive old man, and his wife is a big stomach, good-tempered, but also cheap.

The eldest son is simple, and the second son is frivolous and unreliable.

The eldest daughter-in-law is a strong woman and very strong, while the second daughter-in-law is a Ma Daha.

The first episode tells about them taking a family photo together, and there are many jokes.

Liu Xiaoqing and the others couldn't help laughing when they looked at the script.

After they finished reading the script, they all looked at Li Shengyao in a daze.

None of you are fools, this script is really well written.

Even Li Dafu found it interesting.

"Big nephew, who am I playing?"

"Of course it's Lee Soon-jae."

Li Shengyao didn't care about the change in Li Dafu's title, both of them were surnamed Li, and they were in their fifties, so it was not too much to call him a big nephew.

Li Dafu nodded, "Okay, this character is good and interesting." ”

He thought of the old man Fu who I love my family, and thought that he could play such a character, and he couldn't help but be very excited.

"Big nephew, should I go to learn acting?"

"Uncle, you don't need it, just perform in your true colors."

Li Shuncai is stubborn and fickle, incompetent and desperate to save face, and he is also cheap, and loves to watch pornographic films.

Li Shengyao felt that Li Dafu was similar in other aspects except for being a little darker.

"Good, good, this good."

Li Shengyao finished eating, he put away his smile, "Uncle, this drama can be filmed for a total of 140 episodes, and after you finish acting, you will definitely become famous, but although we were one family five hundred years ago, but public is public, private is private, and in terms of contracts, we have to have a good chat." ”

When it comes to money, it must be made clear, and this is Lee Shengyao's principle.

The original work of "Funny Family" has a total of 167 episodes, but it also involves some sensitive plots, this part cannot pass the review, Li Shengyao must cut some of it, he estimates that he can shoot about 140 episodes.

Li Dafu heard that he could shoot 140 episodes, and his eyes brightened a little.

Then Li Dafu pulled Li Shengyao into the office, and he also called a lawyer.

Zhao Shan saw it and slipped in.

In the next three hours, after continuous bargaining, Li Shengyao signed two agreements with Daifuku Film and Television Company and Zhao Shan.

In these two agreements, Li Shengyao got the copyright of "Love Hotel" and "Funny Family", as well as overseas broadcast rights, directing rights, and 20% profit dividends for mainland broadcast rights.

Daifuku Film and Television Company will invest 1.3 million yuan in "Love Hotel" and get 70% of the profit dividends of the mainland broadcast rights of the show.

They will also invest 3 million in "Funny Family" and get 70% of the show's profits in the mainland.

Zhao Shan invested 300,000 yuan in "Love Hotel" and 500,000 yuan in "Funny Family", and the profits and dividends were 10%.

Li Shengyao originally planned to distribute only three rounds of broadcast rights dividends in the planning book.

But Li Dafu and Zhao Shan are not fools, they both think that if the script is reliable, both dramas can make money, and both of them are fighting on the basis of reason.

Li Shengyao thought about having one more friend and one more way, so he didn't insist on this part.

However, he resolutely refused to let go of copyright and overseas broadcasting rights.

There are more than 100 episodes of the funny family, and one episode of 100,000 is sold to Wanwan, that is, more than 10 million, and this part is not to be talked about.

Of course, in fact, Zhao Shan and Li Dafu just said it casually.

At this time, Chinese dramas could hardly be sold, and good dramas like "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West" were not bought.

It's not that they don't know that these are good dramas, but they are ideologically opposed, and they rarely buy big dramas in which CCTV participates.

Of the four famous novels, only "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was bought by Wanwan Zhongshi, but it was originally broadcast in prime time, but later there were public protests and it was changed to ten o'clock at night.

At this time, they look at the mainland and have a natural sense of superiority, and they disdain to watch mainland dramas.

And although Annan's side often broadcasts, they don't pay for it, and they steal it openly.

Only Asia Television on Hong Kong Island buys it for broadcast on a regular basis.

However, Asia TV bought all the classics among the classics, and Zhao Shan and Li Tai Fook didn't think that Hong Kong Island TV stations could watch "Love Hotel" and "Funny Family".

As for the overseas broadcast rights, neither of them cares much.

So a temporary production team was born, Li Shengyao is also a screenwriter and director producer, the screenwriter's salary is 20,000, the director's salary is 10,000, and the producer's salary is 10,000.

They met for five days and then headed south to Shanghai.

In the past five days, Li Shengyao has to find a reliable photographer, as well as two or three professional field managers, assistant directors, and the leading actors.

When Li Shengyao left Daifuku Film and Television Company, his legs were fluttering, and he never expected that he would be able to get investment so soon.

Zhao Shan was also quite emotional, he originally felt that Li Shengyao was unreliable as a director.

But Li Shengyao took out the script of "Funny Family", and his opinion changed at that time.

There are very few young people who can write good scripts, even the students in the screenwriting class of Yenching Film Academy, the vast majority of them do not have this ability.

Lee Shengyao has the ability to write scripts, and maybe he can also direct.

The standard of ordinary people cannot be placed on geniuses.

Moreover, he is not the main investor, he only invested 800,000 yuan, and arranged two important roles for Liu Xiaoqing, which he thinks is very cost-effective.

Yan Danchen glanced at Li Shengyao from time to time, feeling a little anxious.

has been confirmed to shoot "Love Hotel", but she has not signed a contract yet.

Who knows if Li Dafu will arrange a woman to play the heroine.

But Zhao Shan and Liu Xiaoqing are here, so she can't say much.

Not long after, Zhao Shan and Liu Xiaoqing left crookedly, and Li Shengyao sent Yan Danchen home.

"I want to thank you this time, the day after tomorrow, I asked Zhao Shan to come to you to confirm the performance, I don't know how much your salary is, you can talk to Zhao Shan yourself."

At this time, the actor's salary was still relatively low, and Su Youpeng played 2,000 episodes of the fifth elder brother, with a total salary of less than 50,000 yuan.

The golden lock is said to be one thousand and eighty-one episodes, and Yan Danchen can basically compare the salary of the golden lock.

However, Aunt Qiong Yao is wealthy, and Li Shengyao can't compare with them, he thinks that one thousand and five thousand episodes are almost over.

Yan Danchen got this sentence, and the big stone hanging in his heart finally relaxed, and looked at Li Shengyao's gaze, a little more tender.

"Do you want to go upstairs and sit?"

Li Shengyao glanced at Yan Danchen and shook his head, "Forget it, I have to go back and prepare something." ”

Sitting upstairs is not the same as going upstairs to do it, after all, it's still daylight.

If it's nighttime, the implication is more obvious.

Li Shengyao definitely wants to go up to have a look, no matter how he says, he has to drink a bowl of ginseng soup before leaving.

Yan Danchen nodded, "If there is anything, just look for me, I know some people that the crew needs, I can take you to find someone." ”

Li Shengyao waved his hand and left.

It's finally time to film, and it's exciting to think about it.

Next, find someone as soon as possible, and then go south to Shanghai.
