Chapter 107: Even at such an old age, I can still be frizzy (please order first)
The next day, Xu Kong just arrived at his studio. Not long after, he met Yan Rui, the manager of the film and television department, who came to the door in person.
"Manager Yan came so early?"
Yan Rui's mouth twitched. This was already the fifth time he had come here all morning.
The key is that Xu Kong's personal studio seems to have just been established. Let alone Xu Kong, this studio simply didn't open the door.
It was almost noon before Xu Kong came to the company.
Although it is true that you are an artist and you are a studio with independent operating rights, but is this too leisurely?
"Hahaha, it's actually not too early."
Yan Rui laughed to relieve the embarrassment.
He was indeed not optimistic about Xu Kong before, but after reading the script, he didn't even sleep well last night. The various plot scenes of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" were in his mind.
So early this morning, I came to the company excitedly, ready to have a good talk with Xu Kong.
Who knew that this excitement would only make me excited four or five times.
It wasn't until he gradually calmed down and was ready to have lunch that he finally met Xu Kong, who had just arrived at the studio.
"I think this so-called fairy tale drama of yours has a 50%, no! 60% chance of becoming a hit!"
“And it’s the kind that breaks the record of domestic costume idol dramas”
As soon as he sat down and said a few words, Yan Rui became excited unconsciously.
But Xu Kong was very calm throughout the whole process, drinking water and watching silently.
"You should say something!"
Yan Rui's mouth went dry as he spoke, and finally he couldn't help but say something.
Xu Kong's expression did not change.
"Don't worry yet."
"Manager Yan, you are still so frizzy at such an old age."
Yan Rui was speechless by these two sentences.
Yes, he finally got to know Xu Kong a little better. This kid is very vindictive.
What he said when we first met yesterday was returned unchanged.
"Don't take what I just said seriously. This drama must be filmed well."
Although he was scolded, Yan Rui still spoke with a serious expression.
"Manager Yan, I wrote this script. I know what to do better than you."
Xu Kong couldn't help but remind him.
He also didn't understand why Lao Deng was so excited.
Do you really think that after reading the script once, you can understand "Legend of Sword and Fairy" better than you, a person who has read it countless times?
Yan Rui didn't even have to say anything to refute, he had completely lost his temper.
"Can you get me a glass of water?"
Xu Kong handed over an empty cup and motioned for the other party to take it.
The lip service was enough, but Xu Kong knew it was time to formally negotiate terms.
"I don't want the salary, but I want half of the final profit and copyright share of this show."
Xu Kong didn't hide it much and directly stated his conditions.
"Half?"
Yan Rui fell silent.
Xu Kong wrote, directed, and acted in the entire drama. Strictly speaking, this sharing condition is quite reasonable.
But Xu Kong is just a newcomer after all, and he has only joined Feng Ge for less than half a month.
"Actually, I personally don't think there's anything wrong with your conditions."
"But it's not something I can decide."
Xu Kong remained silent and did not speak.
"This is my bottom line price. If it doesn't work, I don't have to shoot this drama for the time being."
Xu Kong expressed his attitude.
His management contract is indeed true with Feng Ge, but the script is in his hands. If he doesn't want to film it, Feng Ge can't force it.
"I'm going to make a phone call."
Yan Rui didn't lie. This matter was indeed beyond his ability to make the decision.
"You split the company 50-50."
"Are there any other conditions?"
Yan Rui came back in less than three minutes.
Then he spoke directly. Xu Kong was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
"In terms of casting and filming, I have to have absolute decision-making power, and no one else can interfere."
Hearing Xu Kong's words, Yan Rui nodded again and agreed.
"You can rest assured that Feng Ge will generally not interfere with the director's decisions."
"Even if it's the company's own directors and actors, cooperation depends on the willingness of both parties."
After Yan Rui left, Xu Kong was still a little unresponsive.
He originally thought that with Feng Ge, he would be frustrated at every turn.
Who knows that this is not the case at all.
Everything went smoothly and unexpectedly.
Do the top management of Fengge really have that much trust in themselves?
The project of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was approved under such extremely smooth circumstances.
Even the onboarding of Guo Zihao and other people from Xu Kong Studio has not been completed yet.
"Huh?"
Xu Kong opened the chat interface with Shang Yuxin slightly surprised.
Ever since Xu Kong sent the message "Look at your legs" last time, the other party has not replied.
Unexpectedly, after about three days, the other party actually sent another message.

This time, there was no tea talk like before, but a straightforward picture.
It's a close-up of the other party's long legs as delicate as jade.
After hesitating for two seconds, Xu Kong typed:
"Are there any black stockings?"
Shang Yuxin: [Picture]
"Where's Bai Si?"
Shang Yuxin: [Picture]
"jk miniskirt?"
Under the news that Xu Kong was getting more and more aggressive, the other party finally couldn't help it anymore.
"Almost done!"
Xu Kong: "It's not interesting."
In a high-end community in the capital, Shang Yuxin was so angry that she punched the bed several times when she saw the clothes that had been turned over all over the bed.
"Damn guy!"
A message beep sounded.
"What is Xinxin doing?"
"I have good news for you."
"I will also star in Director Ding's new drama, but unfortunately I will only be the second male lead."
"But we also have emotional scenes!"
Seeing that it was Yan Jiaheng, Shang Yuxin was too lazy to reply at first, but when she saw that the other party mentioned Ding Lixin's new drama, she started typing and replied:
"Did Director Ding cast you in the role of Shen Tuxiao?"
The other side responded almost instantly.
"Of course, don't even look at who I am! [Baring teeth and smiling]"
Shang Yuxin: "Congratulations to Brother Jiaheng!"
"Director Ding said that this role was very demanding, but I didn't expect that he would cast you. It's amazing!"
"[Little Red Flower.jpg]"
"When the filming of the drama starts, brother Jiaheng, you must give me good guidance on my acting skills."
The corners of Yan Jiaheng's mouth turned up uncontrollably at this time.
"Xinxin, your acting skills are so good, how can I direct you?"
"But when the time comes, I will be on the same crew, and I will definitely take care of you, so don't worry about that! [Baring teeth and smiling]"
Shang Yuxin: "Thank you, Brother Jiaheng"
"[Thumbs up.jpg]!"
Putting down the phone expressionlessly, Shang Yuxin looked a little confused at this time.
"Didn't there be news before that Xu Kong was coming, and wouldn't Ding Lixin at least play the second male role in this drama?"
"Should we just decide to make him the male protagonist?"
