Chapter 1264: Wake up! Love brain! (twenty four)
In the fourteenth year of the millennium, Xu Yin was visiting the most famous film and television base in China when she received a call from Wang Luhui, who was so excited that she had secured a foreign exchange order for a thousand aircraft.
Lawyer Feng is here to appear in court these two days, and she happens to be on vacation in a nearby town. The two haven't seen each other for a long time, so they might as well fly over to meet up.
It was almost noon when Lawyer Feng finished the court session. Xu Yin arrived early, so she took a taxi and went to the film and television base for a walk.
She was also a frequent visitor to a small world in the past, but filming and traveling are two different things after all. Whats more, its been so long and shes in a different novel setting. The paradox of revisiting her old place gives people a different kind of freshness.
I congratulated Mr. Wang on the phone and made an appointment to visit the helicopter production base this Mid-Autumn Festival.
It is shameful to say that as a major shareholder, she played the role of the hands-off shopkeeper so vividly. Except for one visit when signing the contract, in the past few years, she has never been in person either for video conferences, phone conferences, or email exchanges.
Then its settled, Ill be waiting for Mr. Xu at the base.
Xu Yin: Okay, okay.
Wang Luhui: Mr. Xu, if you are so perfunctory, I will be sad.
Xu Yin: Sadness is always inevitable.
Hang up the phone, Xu Yin looked at the time. It was not the time agreed with Lawyer Feng yet, so she should continue shopping.
Mr. Liao, listen to me, this is really a good script. If its not a good script, we wont spend time planning and filming it. Why dont you spare some time and Ill send you the script. After reading the script...
Xiao Zhiqiang listened to the beeping busy tone coming from his mobile phone. It was obvious that the other party had no patience to listen to him and hung up the phone.
He sighed and continued to look for the big names in his address book who might have a glimmer of hope in investing in this movie, but he had already found most of them. It was not that he looked down on this movie directed by a new generation director and not starring a top star. It was produced at a low cost, just to borrow money to recruit people, but the existing actors were already halfway through the filming. Besides, those actors were personally selected by the director through interviews one by one. Each of them fit the role of the script very well. The temporary replacement was equivalent to all the previous filming. To tear it down and start over again is not only disrespectful to the director, but also irresponsible to the film.
Although he is just a tepid little producer who is in business and does not pay as much attention to the quality of the script as the director, but this is already halfway through, and a temporary replacement will always erase all the efforts in the past. If he can find a It would be great if there are investors who appreciate this book and don't mess around with the filming process.
"Hey, is it Mr. Gu? I'm Xiao Zhiqiang from Wenhua Productions Company! Do you still remember the one we met at the Golden Jasmine Awards? That's right, I have a drama on hand now... Mr. Gu? Mr. Gu?"
Hello, Mr. Fang! I am Xiao Zhiqiang from Wenhua Productions. I wonder if you are interested in investing in a small-cost work...havent you considered this recently? Well, excuse me! Well work together again next time!
Hello, Mr. Luo, I am Xiao Zhiqiang, produced by Wenhua. I have a drama that I want to work with you recently. Do you want to see...Mr. Luo?
"Hey, Brother Tao, I'm Xiao Zhiqiang, do you have any bosses here who want to project a TV series recently? To be honest, I'm in some trouble right now. The lead TV drama investor ran away because of something... Yes, Unlucky or not! This is really a good drama. It would be a pity to put it aside and let it gather dust... What's the name? Didn't I say it? "Ye Sui" is about... Hey, hey, Brother Tao, you Listen to me...Brother Tao? Brother Tao?"
Xu Yin sat down at the stone table to drink water and rest. In just three to five minutes, she heard a small producer who claimed to be produced by Wenhua making no less than a dozen calls, all of which were rejected for investment.
She didnt take it seriously at first. When it comes to investing, there are bound to be successes and failures, and its impossible for everyone to succeed.
But until he mentioned this psychological suspense film called "Ye Sui", he suddenly remembered that in the original text, Fang Haocheng invested in this "Ye Sui" which was not popular in the early stage and became popular later, and not only made a lot of money , and also took the opportunity to open the door to the film and television industry, established an entertainment company, and even took his wife and children to experience a family variety show, which really became popular for a while. So a few years later, when real estate companies all over the country fell into the downturn when the real estate bubble burst, he made a smooth transition to another investment field after making a lot of money. He was the least affected among the real estate tycoons.
But this time, from Xiao Zhiqiangs tone, it seems that Fang Haocheng has no investment? Don't let it be caused by your butterfly again, right?
"Hello, I'd like to ask, is Mr. Fang you contacted earlier, or Fang Haocheng from Li Hao Real Estate?" Xu Yin asked proactively when Xiao Zhiqiang encountered Waterloo again and sat down on the stone bench next to him in frustration.
"yes."
Xiao Zhiqiang looked up and saw a stranger. Although he didn't understand why she asked, he was probably depressed and urgently needed someone to communicate with him, so he and Xu Yin started talking to each other across a bench:
Well, I dont know if the original investor ran into trouble or repented midway. We kept urging them, but they kept delaying, and now they dont even answer the phone.
"Ours is a poor crew, the actors are all newcomers, and the director is also a new generation who has just graduated. Although he has directed a web drama that has received a good response, this is his first attempt at a movie, and no investors are optimistic about him. The previous one , I got it by begging my grandpa and grandma, but in the end... Well, maybe its because of the year of my birth year, which is unlucky!
At this point, he looked at Xu Yin: "Do you know Mr. Fang? I'm actually not very familiar with him. I was introduced to him occasionally. At that time, he was a little interested in investing in scripts, but this time, he didn't seem to be so interested in it. I have some ideas. If I cant find investors anymore, this book will have to be shelved. Not to mention the wasted investment before, this is really a good script, but its a pity..."
Xu Yin asked: "In addition to funding, do you have any other requirements for investors?"
Something else? Whats the request?
For example, the investor needs to be present during the filming process, or the investor needs to give some guidance on filming.
Xiao Zhiqiang smiled bitterly: "Are you mocking the crew? If it weren't for the boss who paid the money, who would welcome them to inspect the site every three days? Once they come, we are not allowed to accompany them? Will the filming progress slow down? And they are pointing fingers... Isnt it something that cant be helped? Unless its a matter of principle such as changing actors or drastically modifying the plot, if it can be done according to the wishes of the sponsors father, Ill generally try to be satisfied.
Xu Yin rubbed her chin and nodded clearly: "So, qualified investors only need to provide money and don't need to worry about anything else?"
What you are talking about is not just a qualified investor, it is simply the most popular and excellent investor.
Xiao Zhiqiang doesnt think there is such a thoughtful investor father in this world.
After all, those who have paid real money, for the sake of the later rate of return, will be more or less worried and want to ask questions.
Xu Yin smiled and said: "Don't worry! I won't interfere. On the contrary, I hope you won't bother me."
???
Under Xiao Zhiqiang's suspicious eyes, Xu Yin opened her bag, took out a checkbook, and wrote a cash check on the spot: "I remember you said this was a small-cost production, 30 million is enough for you to finish filming and promote it before the release. Bar?"
!!
Pie from the sky, let me go!
