Chapter 285 It’s convenient for you to do an examination in the bathroom

“A pleasure to work with!”

No matter where Xu Kong got his confidence, for Wu Youxue, there was actually not much difference.

He originally came here for Xu Kong.

Although he doesn't think that the copyrights of some new dramas under Feng Ge will have a better market at this time, but since Xu Kong is sure of it, he doesn't think there is any big problem.

There is no way, for Wu Youxue now, he has no idea how much benefit Xu Kong's so-called prioritizing Mango can bring to him and Mango.

……

"Mr. Xu, why don't you agree?"

When Wu Youxue came over this time, everything went very smoothly. It didn't take much time and the cooperation between the two parties was finalized.

However, the content of the cooperation was still quite different from what he originally expected.

For Wu Youxue, the corresponding advantage of providing Feng Ge with some new dramas in the future is that he can obtain the copyright of Xu Kong's new dramas.

No matter how Feng Ge goes downhill, Xu Kong's drama will still have considerable appeal.

As long as Xu Kong's follow-up dramas can produce two or even three hits, and they don't even need to be on the level of Fairy Sword, it will be enough to reach the level of "Meet You" or "The Long Season".

Mango will not lose money on this business.

What's more, he can also gain favor and favor from Xu Kong.

No one can say for sure what height and status Xu Kong, who seems to be stuck in the quagmire of Feng Ge, will reach in the future.

……

"Promise what?"

Of course, Yan Rui couldn't understand that the cooperation offered by Mango was almost equivalent to helping Fengge at this stage.

Maybe it’s because I just experienced a difficult situation that I didn’t have before.

It was rare for Feng Ge to be unable to sell the copyright.

That's why Yan Rui valued Wu Youxue's so-called cooperation so much at this time.

"If Mango can make a commitment to the copyright of our follow-up drama, at least we won't suffer such a big loss this time..."

Xu Kong's worries about Yan Rui certainly didn't feel unnecessary.

After all, the other party is not him, and it is impossible for him to predict the future.

"Manager Yan, don't worry, the current situation is only temporary."

Yan Rui didn't know what to say to Xu Kong's relaxed state.

But if you think about it carefully, apart from Feng Ge's current drama, it seems that the situation is not that bad.

Xu Kong almost stopped the dramas that Feng Ge had invested the most in since then.

Then Yan Rui also read the scripts for two dramas and one movie given by Xu Kong.

Not to mention, judging from his own experience, the chance of becoming a hit is not small.

Although the script may not necessarily determine the quality of the finished film, no one can accurately predict its commercial performance in advance.

But a good script is indeed the foundation for the success of a film and television project.

……

"In the case of "The Beginning", the type of suspense drama, coupled with the idea of ​​looping, there is a high probability that the discussion will not be low after it is broadcast."

"But whether you can get out of the circle probably depends on the subsequent publicity and luck."

"It's really hard to say for military-themed movies like "Operation Red Sea"."

""Squid Game" is also full of gimmicks, but after all, it mainly targets the overseas market of Kimchi, so it's hard to say."

Yan Rui did a little analysis and found that although the three scripts Xu Kong gave him, he felt that the quality was not low and they were likely to become hits.

However, under the influence of various factors, it seems that the risks are not small.

If it were before, even though Xu Kong appeared so confident, he would still be a little uneasy inside.

But now, perhaps because of the success of previous projects such as Fairy Sword, "The Long Season", and "Sweet Honey", Yan Rui saw that Xu Kong was so confident, so he didn't panic anymore.

Anyway, Xu Kong is the vice president now and is considered his superior.

The so-called sky is falling, but there are tall people holding it up.

Just follow the other party's requirements and implement it yourself.

After this self-consolation was over, Yan Rui suddenly became more enlightened.

He didn't ask anything else.

……

What Yan Rui didn't expect was that in addition to Mango, people from Penguin Video also came over.

And it’s the other party’s current vice president Zeng Xi.

Xu Kong and Zeng Xi are also old acquaintances.

Starting from the original "Want to See You", Xu Kong's several dramas broadcast on Penguin Video have all been linked to each other.

Of course, Zeng Xi has also changed from the original copyright manager to the current vice president of Penguin Video.

Strictly speaking, although Zeng Xi's personal ability is indeed outstanding, but really speaking, Xu Kong can be regarded as half of the other party's nobles.

Without Xu Kong's several hit dramas, it would have been impossible for him to be promoted so quickly.

"Director Xu, long time no see."

After Zeng Xi saw Xu Kong, she greeted him very naturally.

Strictly speaking, the two have indeed not seen each other much since "The Long Season" was aired.

However, the cooperation between Penguin and Xu Kong is not completely over.

For example, the online copyright of "Sweet Honey" after its release was sold to Penguin Video.

And the relevant data and so on all performed quite well.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Xu Kong is indeed a partner worthy of Penguin Video's attention.

But Feng Ge is different.

Penguin did collaborate with Feng Ge before, on their new suspense theater.

Xu Kong's "The Long Season" had a good reputation and data, and it was indeed a relatively good start.

In other words, kiwi fruit or potatoes have never had such a wonderful start.

It is a pity that the performance of several subsequent dramas is indeed mediocre.

The reputation has not completely collapsed, but there has never been a similar hit.

Under this premise, Penguin spent so much energy and budget, but the effect achieved was not as good as imagined.

Zeng Xi, the person in charge of the suspense theater, is really under a lot of pressure nowadays.

In the early dramas of Suspense Theater, everyone from directors to actors, especially the main creators of the crew, were mainly Fengge people.

Under this premise, the cooperation with Feng Ge must have dissatisfied the top management of Penguin Video.

Coupled with the recent changes in Feng Ge, it is natural that the so-called cooperation has now become in name only.

……

But in the final analysis, Zeng Xi wants Penguin’s suspense theater to stand out among the subsequent suspense dramas on the three major platforms.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Kong seemed to be the most suitable one.

"Mr. Zeng, I understand what you mean."

"But under the current situation, I may not be able to agree to the previous model."

Xu Kong quickly understood what the other party was thinking.

It's just like the original "The Long Season", where the other party will contribute the capital, and Xu Kong and Penguin will each share half of the subsequent profits.

But at this time, Feng Ge is indeed short of people, whether it is directors, actors, or some film and television talents.

However, in terms of funds, although it is not as good as before, it is certainly not to the point of embarrassment. It can still be used to invest in the drama.

Therefore, the current Xu Kong is naturally not able to accept that Penguin himself will continue to lead the investment.

"But...our company will indeed have two dramas in the future, which are quite suitable for your suspense theater."

Although Zeng Xi's arrival this time exceeded Xu Kong's expectations.

But I have to say, it did feel like I was still a little sleepy and the other party gave me a pillow.

……

"Two dramas?"

Zeng Xi was slightly surprised.

In his opinion, Xu Kong may not come back to continue filming TV series in the future.

After all, if most directors can successfully establish themselves in the film industry, it is absolutely impossible for them to come back and continue making TV series. Especially since Xu Kong's previous movie "Sweet Honey" has received such good reputation and box office, it is only normal to strike while the iron is hot.

So he couldn't help but ask:

"Are there any plays directed by you, Director Xu?"

From Zeng Xi's point of view, he didn't trust Feng Ge very much. The previous results were just a reference, and now that Feng Ge was almost gone, he didn't trust Feng Ge even more.

The biggest reason why he came here was because Xu Kong was still in Fengge.

"One of them was directed by me."

"For the other one, director Su Meng is in charge, but I wrote the script, and I'm also the chief producer."

Xu Kong answered truthfully.

……

"The script written by Director Xu?"

Zeng Xi was stunned for a moment.

Read the error-free version at 69 Book Bar! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.

Naturally, he knew Su Meng. His previous hit youth school drama was broadcast on Penguin Video.

However, Su Meng's shortcoming is also obvious, that is, the only success the other party seems to have is youth campus dramas. Several attempts at other types of dramas have ended in losses.

If it was just Su Meng who came to film a suspense drama, he probably wouldn't consider it at all.

But Xu Kong’s script, plus his own production...

It really gave Zeng Xi the feeling that maybe this drama would be different.

"What do you mean, Director Xu?"

Zeng Xi believes that Xu Kong just wants to package and sell the two dramas.

He can accept this.

After all, there is a drama directed by Xu Kong himself as a backup, and even if the data of the other one is not that good, it seems that it is not a loss.

He didn't dare to guarantee that Xu Kong's suspense drama would still be a hit.

But with "The Long Season" in front of you, it does make people feel more confident.

However, as many people in the circle have speculated, continuing to stay in Fengge has indeed put Xu Kong himself under considerable restrictions.

Otherwise, how could Xu Kong still need to come back and continue filming TV series.

It is nothing more than to restore some of Xu Kong's Feng Ge's inevitable decline.

……

Zeng Xi thought she had guessed Xu Kong's thoughts, but what he said next was completely unexpected by Zeng Xi.

"Well, if Mr. Zeng is interested, you can consider joining our Fengge preview meeting later."

Zeng Xi didn't expect that Xu Kong meant that he would buy the rights to Feng Ge's new drama when the time comes?

The other party doesn't seem to be worried at all about whether the copyright can be sold?

Forget about his own drama, but Xu Kong is not worried about the one directed by Su Meng?

In other words, Xu Kong didn't plan to sell the copyright to them in advance?

He was even prepared to discuss copyright fees with Xu Kong just now.

Who knew it would be such a result.

"Director Xu, do you want us to discuss the copyright issue after the filming of the drama is completed?"

Xu Kong nodded.

"Of course I have to let Mr. Zeng see the quality of the finished film before he can rest assured, right?"

……

Zeng Xi is not Wu Youxue. Strictly speaking, Xu Kong and Penguin Video have collaborated many times.

But if there is any personal feeling between the two parties, it really doesn't matter.

In Shangyanshang, Xu Kong certainly knew that Zeng Xi came here this time just because he felt there was an opportunity to take advantage of.

After all, Feng Ge's previous drama, which had a large investment, suffered serious losses.

So he can guess that he probably hopes to win the copyright of Xu Kong's new drama at a fairly good price, or the exclusive online rights to the subsequent movie.

As for the price that can be paid, there is a high probability that the subsequent copyrights of Feng Opera will be packaged and acquired together.

Feng Ge must be sure to make a profit in this business.

What Zeng Xi and Penguin Video are betting on is whether Xu Kong's subsequent new dramas and movies will become popular again.

But it's a pity that if it were someone else, he might have agreed.

"If Mr. Zeng still feels uneasy at that time, he can also sign an independent agreement."

Xu Kong finally added this sentence.

It kind of showed his attitude.

The most rumored thing in the industry recently, which has even turned into a joke, is the bet between Feng Ge and Qi Guo about the new drama.

Although the drama was overturned later, Kiwi was not considered a beneficiary.

But due to the gambling agreement, most of the losses of that show were almost borne by Feng Ge.

Xu Kong actually thinks the idea of ​​a gambling agreement is very good. Don’t these platforms like to pick up the slack?

It can be used again later.

……

When Zeng Xi left, it was hard to tell whether he was happy or sad.

Obviously, Xu Kong is indeed very vengeful.

This time Feng Ge was lonely and Penguin Video chose to terminate the cooperation, which definitely caused dissatisfaction from the other party.

But at present, Feng Ge doesn't seem qualified to directly refuse all future cooperation with them.

And Zeng Xi also saw that Xu Kong hoped that he would convey Feng Ge's overall attitude.

With the precedent of Kiwi, Feng Ge will indeed be in a passive position in subsequent copyright negotiations.

Xu Kong had no intention of bowing his head or giving in.

……

"Have you finished handling matters in your company?"

In Beijing, three projects including "The Beginning", "Operation Red Sea" and "Squid Game" have been officially approved recently.

After helping Su Meng and others answer some of their questions, Xu Kong was able to take a break.

Hearing Su Zhi's question, Xu Kong also nodded.

Speaking of which, Youyou, Shang Green Tea, and Sister Yu are all in the company, and Xu Kong can see them from time to time.

Only here in Su Zhi, there are not so many opportunities for the two of them to meet.

Although they both live in the same community, Xu Kong hasn't visited for a while.

Now that I have some free time, I finally don't have to run to Feng Ge's headquarters tomorrow. Xu Kong came to Su Zhi's place in the evening.

However, Su Zhi has been performing a lot recently, and due to her personality, she will not take the initiative to disturb Xu Kong.

"Are you a little fatter?"

Xu Kong felt the roundness in his hands and couldn't help but ask.

The main reason is that every time Xu Kong's attention is focused on Su Zhi's strong capital. Recently, because he stayed with Yu, he subconsciously focused on the lower part.

"No."

Su Zhi still had the same calm and indifferent expression as before.

"Then let me check!"

Xu Kong quickly revealed his true face and spoke directly.

Su Zhi did not refuse, but just suggested: "I'll take a bath first..."

After Xu Kong let go of the other party, he didn't see Su Zhi make any subsequent moves.

After a while, I heard the other party say:

"Do you want to come together?"

"The bathroom is convenient for you to check."

Su Zhi's serious appearance was the most lethal to Xu Kong.

Of course it was impossible for him to refuse.

So he simply hugged Su Zhi, who was already in his arms, horizontally.

The loose bottoming shirt was no longer close-fitting due to Xu Kong's efforts just now.

The abundant capital in the air seemed quite restless under Xu Kong's actions.

Although he has seen it countless times, Xu Kong is still attracted by this shocking scene

Until I came to the bathroom, I looked at the bathtub that had been filled with water for some time, and I could see that it was not the smaller size before, and could fully accommodate two people's extensive activities together.

Only then did Xu Kong realize that everything seemed to have been carefully prepared by the other party.
