Chapter 257 I’m determined
“I haven’t started calculating yet, I guess it’s not high.” Wang Shu responded.
The award-winning film is not a commercial film that is highly recommended in China. He plans to produce it solely and then hand it over to China Film for distribution. There will be little resistance.
Han Sanping nodded and asked, "Do you have the funds to operate?"
When he thought about it, Wang Shu probably didn't have any at the moment.
He also heard that Wang Shu's Yishu company held an annual meeting a few days ago and disclosed the fact that it suffered losses in 2006.
However, he also knows that in the long run, it will be profitable, and profits will be realized only when the funds are withdrawn.
Han Sanping estimates that Wang Shu will start to withdraw funds after the year. By then, big productions will be unable to be completed, but small productions should be able to be completed.
"Yes." Wang Shu originally thought that there would be some prevarication after the new year, but then he thought that several other companies under his ownership would eventually be disclosed, so he just said yes.
When Han Sanping heard this, he didn’t think much about it. He just thought that what Wang Shu said was that the funds would be withdrawn after the year, and it was a small production with a small investment. He immediately said: "Okay, the deal is done. Give it to China Film and will help you distribute it.”
He could tell that Wang Shu, a low-budget award-winning film, was going to be produced solely by Yishu Company.
Having been destined to become the chairman of China Film Group Corporation, he will no longer focus on this thing. Even if he knows that the art film directed by Wang Shu is likely to achieve good results, he will not have too many thoughts.
The vision and ideas are different.
Assuming the position of chairman of China Film Group Corporation, he mainly intends to respond to the policy call and promote the development of domestic commercial films.
Pursue a name.
As for profits.
China Film Group is not Han Sanping’s private property, and no matter how much he earns, it has nothing to do with him.
What's more, for him personally, he can only seek fame, not profit.
"Okay." Wang Shu responded with a smile, and the matter was settled.
His Yishu Company does not have distribution capabilities. Once a film is successfully produced, even if it is not handed over to China Film for distribution, it must be handed over to other distributors for distribution.
There are only a few domestic distributors with distribution capabilities. In comparison, it is better to leave it to China Film.
As for getting involved in the field of distribution
This is not the era of capital entry. Without a lot of money to clear the way, it is impossible to make a difference.
For example, Huayi, even if it acquires Xi Film Studio to gain distribution channels, in the end, it still has to rely on established distributors such as China Film to distribute its films.
Distributors and theaters are the same, it is a no-cost business that collects money, and there are too many interests involved, and Wang Shu is not able to touch it at the moment.
The two continued to chat about some work matters. When Wang Shu entered the door, he noticed that Han Sanping seemed to be preparing to go out. He immediately stood up and said, "Director Han, that's it for today. I'm going back first."
Han Sanping was also a fastidious person, so he immediately persuaded him to stay: "Your sister-in-law is already preparing the meal. Let's go after eating."
Wang Shu was also a fastidious person. He turned around and said with a smile: "Forget it, we'll talk about it later when we have time." , Forget it today."
Liu Wenlu heard the noise in the living room and quickly chased out and shouted: "Old Han, I cooked the glutinous rice balls and left Director Wang to eat before leaving."
Liu Wenlu is from Sichuan Province and has the custom of eating glutinous rice balls on the morning of the Spring Festival.
Wang Shu arrived early, and as the family was preparing to go out, there were no suitable ingredients at home, so he immediately cooked a pot of glutinous rice balls and eggs.
According to custom, it is not considered disrespectful to cook a bowl of glutinous rice balls and eggs for guests who come to your home early in the morning.
Wang Shu heard the shouting in the house, and of course he would not really stay at Han Sanping's house for dinner, so he immediately said: "No, I ate here."
At this time, Liu Wenlu had already left. She rushed out of the kitchen. She was polite and kept pleading: "Xiao Wang, the glutinous rice balls are already prepared. Eat and leave without giving this time."
Wang Shu knew that he was really in no hurry. , but Han Sanping and Liu Wenlu were obviously in a hurry to go out, and they had been delayed for a long time after chatting for a while. They probably didn't mean what they said, so they were naturally not so lackluster.
He pretended to smile bitterly and said: "Sister-in-law, I really came here after eating. You also know that there are many places selling breakfast in Beijing. I can just drive around and find a place in the morning."
"Now tea I’ve already drank it, sister-in-law, there’s really no need to be so polite.”
When he said this, he seemed to have thought of something, and then pretended to be surprised, “Oh, by the way, among the things I brought just now. There are cured fish and bacon that I brought from my hometown. My parents made them at home, not bought them outside.”
“You can try them.”
“Huh? Liu Wenlu was stunned when she heard this, and then quickly pulled Wang Shu to stay.
Although the value of the wax goods brought from his hometown and made by the other person's parents may not be high, the friendship is very important.
Where can’t you buy cured fish and bacon as long as you have money?
Wang Shu just brought the cured fish and bacon made by his parents from his hometown!
Just now I vaguely heard that Wang Shu didn’t leave for his hometown until the New Year’s Eve, and rushed back to the capital on the first day of the new year.
When I went back, I rushed here and there in such a short time, and I didn’t forget to bring some home-made cured fish and bacon.
Liu Wenlu looked at Han Sanping and signaled with her eyes.
Seeing Wang Shu being so particular, Han Sanping suddenly thought of the story of Wang Baoqiang and Feng Xiaogang, and was quite touched in his heart. He immediately shouted: "Since your sister-in-law has prepared glutinous rice balls, let's eat before leaving."
Wang Shu didn’t care whether Liu Wenlu was really prepared or pretended to be prepared. Anyway, since he knew that Han Sanping and Liu Wenlu were going out, he would not stay here to delay the other party’s time. He then continued to smile bitterly: "Director Han, I am really If you come back after breakfast, you don’t have to be so polite.”
Seeing that Wang Shu’s expression didn’t look fake, Han Sanping couldn’t say anything else.
Liu Wenlu, however, continued to pull the strings politely, and finally the two of them watched Wang Shu leave.
The two looked at each other, and Liu Wenlu walked over to where the gifts brought by Wang Shu were placed. There were cigarettes and wine, all of which were expensive brands.
There are also milk, fruit snacks and other gifts, which are obviously gifts prepared considering that they have children at home.
Finally, there are cured goods, including cured fish, cured meat, spicy chicken, and cured sausages. At first glance, they look like they are homemade.
Han Sanping was also nearby, not only seeing tobacco, alcohol and other items in his eyes, but also keeping the goods in his eyes.
Liu Wenlu looked back at Han Sanping and said softly: "If you have time after the new year, ask Xiao Wang to come home for a meal."
"He insisted on leaving just now. He must have noticed that we were going out, so he didn't stay at all."
"He came here early in the morning and brought so many things. It was so big Director, it’s really unreasonable to not leave anyone a meal.”
“Okay, you can arrange it. I’ll listen to you.” Han Sanping nodded.
Previously, in order to express his gratitude to Feng Xiaogang, Wang Baoqiang carried a bag of home-grown millet from his hometown and delivered it to his door, which became a favorite story.
Now, the great director Wang Shu is sending wax goods from his hometown during the New Year. Isn’t it a good story?
Han Sanping has a good reputation and a good reputation.
You have to talk to someone about this matter.
After leaving Han Sanping's residence, Wang Shu drove back to the market near the community where he lived, bought some breakfast and returned home.
I rushed out early in the cold day and didn’t even eat breakfast. I just started eating breakfast now.
Although Liu Wenlu allowed him to eat glutinous rice balls, she couldn't really stay there to eat them.
After breakfast, Wang Shu suddenly felt fine.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, he didn’t want to go to the company to work alone early. Especially during the holidays, when all the employees were on vacation, there were too many links for him to go to work alone, which was too inefficient and completely unnecessary.
It’s time to wait until the employees go to work and the company is running.
Wang Shu thought for a while, took out his mobile phone and dialed a phone number.
"Happy New Year, have you returned to your hometown?" Wang Shu asked after the call was connected.
"Haha, happy New Year to you too, no." Mei Ting said with a smile.
“What are you doing now?” Wang Shu asked immediately.
“I didn’t do anything, just watched TV at home.” Mei Ting said.
“Want to come and play at my place?” Wang Shu asked with a smile.
It suddenly occurred to him that the divorce between Mei Ting and Director Yan had not been exposed yet, and Mei Ting was probably hiding this from her family.
Therefore, there is a high probability that she will not return to Nanji this New Year, but will stay in the capital alone to celebrate the New Year.
"Ah? Have you returned to Beijing?" Mei Ting was stunned when she heard this and asked subconsciously.
"I arrived last night. I went to pay homage to Director Han this morning for a year, and now I'm back home." Wang Shu explained.
When Mei Ting heard this, she immediately pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Then why don't you come to pay me New Year's greetings?"
Wang Shu laughed and said, "I didn't know if you were in the capital, so I gave you a call when I got back from Director Han."
Mei Ting heard this After saying this, my heart felt warm, and she said softly: "Then come and pick me up."
"Okay." Wang Shu responded without saying a word.
However, as soon as he finished answering, Mei Ting immediately said: "Forget it, I don't want you to pick me up, I'll go there myself."
"Huh?" Wang Shu didn't know for a moment Understanding Mei Tiao's brain circuit, he was a little confused and immediately said, "It's better for me to pick you up. This will save you a lot of trouble."
Mei Ting heard Wang Shu's concern, and she said: "It's Chinese New Year, how can I ask you to pick me up? I'll go there myself."
When Wang Shu heard this, he almost guessed what Mei Ting was thinking. , and immediately joked: "You are not embarrassed to come here empty-handed, are you going to buy something before you come back?"
Seeing Wang Shu guess her thoughts, Mei Ting immediately snorted with a dark face: "You want to The beauty!”
Despite what he said, the reality is just as Wang Shu joked.
Mei Ting did act coquettishly at first and asked Wang Shu to pick her up, but then she suddenly thought that today was the second day of the Lunar New Year, and it would be rude of her not to buy some gifts, so she turned around and said she didn’t want Wang Shu. Go pick it up and go there by herself.
Wang Shu got an idea from Mei Ting's angry tone, and then smiled and said: "Okay, I won't pick you up, you can come here by yourself."
"Yes." Mei Ting responded softly. After a sound, he hung up the phone.
Wang Shu sat on the sofa and looked towards the kitchen. It was the second day of the Lunar New Year this year. Mei Ting looked like she was coming to bring gifts to pay New Year greetings. As the head of the household, he had to be particular.
Thinking that I would have nothing to do today, I immediately went out to the supermarket to buy groceries.
During the Spring Festival, most migrant workers go back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year. The streets are relatively deserted, and only some places with a large flow of people are still lively.
In broad daylight, Wang Shu had no intention of hanging out with Mei Ting.
In a few places with a lot of traffic, it is easy to encounter paparazzi.
To avoid unnecessary trouble, it is best to stay at home.
The fact is that many artists are indeed staying at home.
Walking around in the supermarket, Wang Shu bought the vegetables and returned home, took a sip of water, and then began to wash and prepare the vegetables.
Just as he was preparing in full swing in the kitchen, the doorbell rang. He quickly stopped and went to open the door to see who it wasn't Mei Ting!
Wang Shu’s eyes fell on the large and small bags held by Mei Ting. While helping her take them, he said with a smile: "It’s enough if you come. Why are you so polite?"
The room was heated. Mei Ting took off her coat as she walked into the room. She turned around and said with a smile: "Today is the second day of the Lunar New Year, okay? I came to your house to pay New Year greetings. How can I come empty-handed?"
When she turned back, she noticed some water vapor floating in the kitchen of Wang Shu's home, and then asked in confusion: "What are you doing? Why is there smoke in the kitchen?"
While speaking, He walked to the kitchen curiously.
Wang Shu put away the gifts that Mei Ting had brought, looked towards the kitchen and said, "Didn't I know you were coming over? So I prepared a big meal for you."
Mei Ting had already walked in at this moment. In the kitchen, when he saw the large and small plates of dishes that had not yet been cooked, he was suddenly surprised and said: "Ah, are you really preparing the food?"
Wang Shu came to the kitchen and said with a smile: " Isn't this obvious?"
When Mei Ting saw this, a thick smile appeared on her face. She looked at Wang Shu with her beautiful eyes and teased: "You have prepared so much, and you can do it. "
Wang Shu chuckled and said, "I started cooking when I was five or six years old. It's easy to do this. "
Mei Ting thought for a while and realized that Wang Shu was from the countryside and might be good at cooking as he said. She looked at Wang Shu with bright eyes.
"Really? It's not just a boast, is it?" Although I believed it in my heart, I couldn't believe it with my mouth.
Wang Shu reached out and hooked the tip of Mei Ting's nose, and said with a smile: "It's useless to talk more, you will know later."
Mei Ting snorted proudly. , looked at the prepared dishes next to her, and asked curiously: "Did you buy these from the supermarket?"
She pointed to the cured goods prepared on the plate.
Wang Shu heard the news and went away and explained: "No, I brought that from my hometown."
"My parents made cured fish and bacon in my hometown. When I returned to Beijing, they asked me to bring it over to eat."
“Come over today, I’ll make it for you to try.”
“Ah, uncle and aunt made it?” When Mei Ting heard this, she immediately shouted in surprise. .
Wang Shu laughed and said, "I'll try it later to see if it tastes good."
After hearing this, Mei Ting nodded happily.
Wang Shu then said: "You entertain yourself first. I'm going to cook in the kitchen. I'll call you when I'm done."
The heating in the room is relatively hot, so even if Mei Ting takes off her hair, It was very hot even though he had taken off his coat. Hearing this, he said, "Then find me a shirt first."
