However, no investor believed his words, because every director said similar things when he went to attract investment.

Wanbao is now relying on his own savings to support him, but if he continues like this, he knows that he will definitely not be able to hold on, but stopping now is equivalent to all his previous efforts being in vain, so he can only grit his teeth and continue.

He was thinking about all kinds of things in his head, but he heard a crisp female voice on his mobile phone: "Hello, my name is Sheng Quan, is it like this, I have some interest in "The Road of Life", and I want to make personal investment, so can I send me a copy of the project presentation materials?" I'd like to dig a little deeper before deciding. ”

Investment?!!

Wan Bao's eyes lit up, he didn't have a headache, and his eyes were not tired, and the whole person was instantly energetic as if he had just beaten two catties of chicken blood, and even the tone that was still a little tired was high:

"Convenient, convenient! Miss Sheng, report it to me by email, and I'll send it over......"

Saying that, he felt unsafe, and immediately said: "Or if you are in China, I will go to your side now and explain to you in detail, and it will not delay you a lot of time." ”

Sheng Quan: "......"

It can be heard that Director Wanbao is indeed short of money now.

But this is also better, the more eager he is, the better it is for her to talk about the conditions, after all, she has not been in contact, in case Director Wanbao is the type who does not accept the investment to designate actors into the group.

If she could, Sheng Quan still didn't want to change the crew, after all, after her analysis and investigation these days, the most suitable drama for investment at this time period is "Life Road".

She immediately reported the address of the hotel she was staying in, and when Wanbao heard the name of the hotel, she instantly felt relieved.

This hotel is notoriously luxurious, even the most ordinary room is more than 50,000 yuan a night, Sheng Quan can live in such a hotel, at least it shows that her financial resources are not bad, and the amount of investment she can take out will be ideal.

He is now at a dead end, and finally dropped a big pie out of thin air, and immediately like grasping the last straw, he hung up the phone and immediately bought a ticket, and caught the earliest plane to fly directly to the magic capital.

He didn't even think about the authenticity of the call, and in this situation, even if there was only a one percent chance, Wan Bao would be desperate to catch it.

Four hours later, Manbao arrived at the hotel, which was very understated and luxurious on the outside.

To be honest, he didn't come to stay once.

After all, his most famous work is only a little famous, and the investment he finally brought in has run away, as an ordinary little director, he usually lives a very budget-conscious life.

At this time, it was already one o'clock in the morning, standing at the door of the luxurious hotel that was incompatible with his temperament, and was blown by the cold wind, Wanbao's brain that was heated by investment was slightly sobered.

He had time to start thinking about all sorts of messy questions.

Who introduced Sheng Quan, he patronized and didn't ask, she didn't even say how much to invest, what if he ran over like this, what if he pulled a little investment, is this call really true? It can't be a joke call, right? It seems that someone has received a similar call before, in case it is fake, won't he toss in vain this night?

Wan Bao reported Sheng Quan's name to the staff with anxiety, and he was worried that the other party would say, "We don't have this resident in our hotel."

Fortunately, such a thing did not happen, and the staff smiled and said, "Ms. Sheng has told us, sir, please come here." ”

Wan Bao breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

And when he was led into the exclusive elevator by the staff and watched him go directly to the top floor, his breath boiled again.

He knew that there was only one room on the top floor of this hotel, and the price was naturally the most expensive.

Miss Sheng, who can live in such a room, took the initiative to ask him for investment.

Bet right.

Wan Bao, who flew from another city in a hurry and didn't even have time to change his clothes, instantly popped up these three words in his mind.

And when he saw that there were even two bodyguards arranged by the hotel standing at the door of the room, as well as the room housekeeper who was on duty outside, and two waiters, Wanbao was even more sure, where is the pie in the sky, it is clearly a gold cake!

If he can't seize this opportunity...... No, he's going to take the chance.

Wanbao quickly adjusted his mentality, and did a good job of positioning himself and Miss Sheng in his heart.

Just one sentence: it's easy to say anything about the conditions, just give money!

Chapter 3

It went unexpectedly well.

Sheng Quan thought that Director Wanbao would be very talkative at this time, but he didn't expect to be so talkative, he kept smiling at her earnestly, and his face was about to laugh like a chrysanthemum.

She didn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry in her previous life, not to mention that "Starlight" is still overhead, many settings are not the same as her previous life, she is afraid that she will be cheated as a layman, and she has made up classes in the hotel for several days during this time, and now she can barely be regarded as having a shallow understanding of the entertainment industry in this world.

This is also Sheng Quan's style of doing things, although she has a Shenhao system and still wears books, but it is absolutely impossible for her to rush without seeing the current situation in the world clearly.

She first finished reading the original work of "The Road of Life", and then determined that Yan Hui, who was a quasi-funding object, was in line with the role she wanted to give him, and finally contacted Director Wanbao.

And after Wan Bao heard that Sheng Quan had an understanding of all the characters in "The Road of Life", and he understood it quite deeply, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment in his heart: "Are you a book fan?" ”

He said, how could a rich individual investor suddenly pop up, if it is a book fan who wants to invest in dramas after reading the book, it makes sense.

The rich woman is a fan of books, he understands.

Although it was the first time he had seen such a young and beautiful rich woman, it didn't matter, as long as he had money.

Sheng Quan's misunderstanding of Wanbao is also happy to see it: "It's okay, I especially like the role of Qin Heng, I heard that your crew hasn't decided on Qin Heng's actor yet?" ”

Wan Bao was immediately excited, knowing that the drama was coming: "Yes, it was set before, but there was something wrong with his schedule, so now this role is empty." ”

It is very common for investors to designate actors to join the group, and the specific level of role to be given depends on how much money the investor gives, whether the director is famous enough or not, and whether he has a strong personality.

And at present, Wanbao, who is so poor that only equipment is left, is very conscious, he used to be very reluctant to bring money into the group, but after being beaten by reality, he has changed from 'bringing money into the group, Lao Tzu would rather not have this money' to 'as long as it doesn't affect the main plot, you can send a dog to play a cat'.

And the role of Qin Heng happens to attract fans if he plays it well, but it will not affect the viewing experience of the TV series, acting well will help add points, it doesn't matter if he doesn't act well, the overall impact is not big.

Why is Wanbao so clear, because the actor who was set to play Qin Heng before was designated by the investor, but the investor withdrew his investment, and the actor followed, and the position was vacant.

Sheng Quan asked Qin Heng, it was much better than he imagined to ask the main character, after all, he had already 'sold' once, and then 'sold' for the second time, and there was no psychological pressure.

Wan Bao immediately consciously took the initiative to ask: "Does Miss Sheng have any recommended candidates?" ”

He didn't ask the other party if he was really sure about the investment, if he really appointed the actor, would he still worry that Miss Sheng wouldn't give money?

"Yes, there is one."

Sheng Quan couldn't help but sigh, sure enough, those who have been in the entertainment industry for a long time are all human spirits, and there is no need for her to say it, the people themselves handed this talk up.

She is not hypocritical, in the entertainment industry, money is king.

Sheng Quan put down the "Project Presentation Materials" in his hand and said straight to the point: "I will invest 10 million, and someone will talk to you about the specific matters and rights and interests, the necessary condition is that Qin Heng's actors are designated by me, if Director Wan has no objection to this, then we can continue." ”

Wan Bao's whole person is stiff.

His mind was full of "ten thousand, ten thousand, ten million, ten million."

Ten million!!!

Here I have to mention the general investment amount in the world entertainment industry, which is not as high as the overall inflation of Sheng Quan's entertainment industry in his previous life, in the setting of "Starlight", the situation in the entertainment industry is quite polarized, and the price is directly linked to fame.

It includes the fame of the director, the fame of the actor, the fame of the singer, the fame of the composer, and so on.

The cheap die cheaply, and the expensive die expensively.

Ten million is very capable of fighting at this moment.

An ordinary director like Wan Bao, an ordinary crew, if he can bring in an investment of five million, it can be regarded as the smoke of the ancestral tomb, and because the actors are basically not famous, the price is cheap, and four million is enough for the filming of the whole drama.

Of course, he is definitely not satisfied with four million, after all, the quality of this drama is very high, and as we all know, there are many ways to improve the quality of TV series, but the most indispensable thing is to throw money.

Good-looking composition, NG again and again, making scenes, buying props, customizing clothes, actors, field affairs, shooting, post-production, editing, dubbing, materials, which does not cost money.

It is no exaggeration to say that the dream of every director in the entertainment industry is to spend as much money as he wants after filming starts.

Directors who have no money can only be forced to reduce the quality, and those like Wanbao, who have no money and are unwilling to reduce the quality, can only hold on, and even the copyright is because this is quite an unpopular niche, although the quality is high, but the results are not very good, so he talked about it.

And now! Sheng Quan told him that she had invested 10 million !!

The investor who withdrew only invested 4 million!

"Miss Sheng, I'm willing, of course I'm willing, Qin Heng's actor is up to you, I'm willing to sign a sixth-level contract with you, I, as long as you vote, I'll be able to say anything here......"

Wan Bao was incoherent excitedly, it was the first time he encountered such a big investment after graduation, especially in the snow, if he wasn't afraid of scaring Sheng Quan, he would have jumped up and knocked her down.

Sheng Quan has seen it, checked the information for so many days, and knows what the highest-specification contract in Wanbao's mouth is, and the entertainment industry in this world will divide all kinds of investment contracts into seven levels.

The higher the specifications, the greater the benefits and authority for the investor.

Generally, the investment will only sign the fourth level, starting from the fourth level, the higher the up, the more profitable the investor, the lower the down, the more profitable the producer, Wanbao is the sixth level, which shows the sincerity.

However, although Sheng Quan wants to make money, he doesn't want to deprive Wanbao of too much authority, her investment does seem to be a lot in the current market, but it is fair to divide, at most sign a five-level, five-level is already her advantage, Wanbao is obviously afraid that she will run away, so he tried to tie her up with interests.

Sheng Quan's favorite thing is to deal with this kind of honest person, but she will not take advantage of the danger of others to bully honest people: "Even if it's level six, it's still level five, the crew has started filming now, right, I don't know if it's inconvenient to arrange an audition these days?" ”

Wan Bao was first surprised that Sheng Quan didn't apply for the sixth-level contract, and when he heard the audition mentioned later, he was even more surprised.

He hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice, "Is the audition for the general public?" ”

However, some investors like to engage in this set, and they want to have an audition for the role that is clearly set, showing that the role is obtained by the designated actor who defeated the opponent openly.

Wan Bao didn't say it, but he didn't like this approach, after all, since it was decided from the beginning, why did he invite other actors to come, people prepared seriously with expectations, but there was no hope of being selected from the beginning, isn't that a walk?

Fortunately, this bold new investor has no hobby of walking, and she naturally said, "No, just for him." ”

"Although I think he fits the role, I always have to audition to know if it's really suitable, Director Wan, you say yes?"

Although Wan Bao listened to what he thought in his head, '10 million, 10 million, even if it is not suitable, I have to praise him for a full fit', it does not affect his mouth and echoes: "Yes, yes, I think so too, we are based on our ability to take the role, and we are not afraid of auditions." ”

Sheng Quan didn't find Wanbao's rich inner drama, although she made a lot of preparations, she was still in a good mood.

Next, she only needs to find the hotel to take the lead, and she can immediately get a mature and decent team of negotiation professionals.

This time, I don't have to worry about money, because it is to 'fund' Yan Hui and help him get the role of "Life Road", so the relevant expenses can be from the system's books.

Sheng Quan made a few phone calls, signed a few checks, and got a contract full of sincerity the next day.

After so many days, she felt the joy of spending money for the first time, and when she used to look at Shenhao, she felt that 10 million was not much, but she had a system, and she really realized that this money is really a huge amount of money, and the feeling of spending a huge amount of money ...... It's so cool!

As the one who got a huge amount of money, Wan Bao was naturally more anxious than her to settle down, and when everything was over, this director in his early thirties who looked like a little fat man in his forties with a beard was already about to take off.

He held the contract that was signed at a rapid pace, and the whole person was immersed in the happy emotion of 'ah~ I'm going to faint with happiness'.

When everyone didn't believe him, when he was most desperate, Sheng Quan fell from the sky like a fairy, believed in his talent, recognized his ability, and gave him such a huge sum of money, Wanbao's heart was full of emotion, and he couldn't wait to swear that he would definitely shoot this TV series well, and he would work hard to make it shine in a perfect manner, so as to give back rich profits to Sheng Quan, an investor.

"I will definitely shoot well, thank you, thank you very much......"

Sheng Quan sent Wan Dao, who had not slept all night with blue eyes but full of excitement, and was about to show loyalty to her every other while, into the car, and watched him leave, she immediately asked the driver to send her to buy a mobile phone.

She used the system funds, probably because she was afraid that she would run out of life before she could wait for the rebate, and the first task had a newbie gift package, and the system gave 12 million, except for the 10 million and miscellaneous expenses, the remaining more than 1 million are also very visible.

When you don't have money, forget it, now that you have money in the card, of course Sheng Quan has to spend it.

When Sheng Quan bought the mobile phone, the system was slightly skeptical, after all, according to the regulations, before she was returned, the money could only be used for incidents related to the subsidized.
