Chapter 32 The Horrifying Huayi
The casting idea of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" will continue in the dramas of Sugar Man in the next ten years: boldly casting young "handsome men and beauties", and the actors' remuneration will account for a large proportion of the overall production. Not more than one-third of the ratio.
Afterwards, Sugar Man entered a period of rapid development. In the next few years, it created three hit movies, The Condor, The Immortal, and Bu Bu Jingxin.
It not only made Sugar Man Three Treasures famous, but also made many new generation actors popular, and made many old actors become famous or even more popular.
In the domestic entertainment industry, sugar people can reach the top,
As the leader, Cai Yinong, no matter how emotional he is, is essentially just a businessman.
"Hello, Mr. Cai." Li Mingyang smiled.
"How is the writing of the TV drama script you promised me going?" Cai Yinong asked knowingly.
“I didn’t write it.”
Cai Yinong put down the document in his hand and said displeased: “Are you kidding me?”
"I'm just a student, how dare I offend Sugar Man!"
Li Mingyang sat across from Cai Yinong and said with a serious face: "Tang Man has always focused on ancient costumes, and he is unrivaled in ancient costumes. , but modern drama is a new field. If you are confident, the TV station may not be confident."
"Who told you to sit down?" Cai Yinong said coldly.
This woman is so fierce...
Li Mingyang stood up silently and was about to tell his plan.
Cai Yinong threw over a notebook and said, "I give you opportunities, food and drink, and housing subsidies for the sake of the script. Since you can't produce the script, you will lose money."
Li Mingyang When I opened the book, Cai Yinong's plan clicked!
Everything counts, even the cost of clearing the lunch box after finishing the meal is calculated with him.
More than twenty pages of accounts, totaling thirteen thousand.
Having been in Hengdian for a month, Li Mingyang has received a total of three thousand yuan from Cai Yinong...
The four of them worked as free labor for so long. Not only did they not make any money, they suddenly owed 13,000 yuan.
The loan sharks shook their heads when they saw it!
"Mr. Cai... we have hard work even without credit!"
"Who doesn't have hard work? Doesn't the person who settles the accounts have hard work?"
"No Money.”
Li Mingyang didn’t want to give him money, and Cai Yinong snorted: “I heard that you are very familiar with people from Youku.”
“It’s just so so.”
“Tangren has been working with Youku recently. When talking about copyright fees, help me negotiate a good price, and I will give you a commission to pay off the debt."
Li Mingyang rolled his eyes inwardly. Cai Yinong, who can create this account book, is definitely not an ordinary stingy person!
Help, if he can get a penny from Cai Yinong, the sow can climb the tree.
"It's a bit difficult. I had a falling out with Youku." Li Mingyang scratched his head, "Mr. Cai, how about this, I plan to make a movie about love like a bouquet, how about you share in it?"
Cai Yinong laughed and said: "Making a movie? It's ridiculous. If your movie passes the review, I will cancel your debt and let you be the leading actor in Sugar Man's next drama!"
Cai Yinong I'm not being alarmist.
Hua Yi has great influence and has been deeply involved in the film industry for so many years. It can pass the review with just one phone call.
“Since I dared to shoot, I expected to be blocked.” Li Mingyang said confidently: “I am confident that they can’t block me.”
"Haha." Cai Yinong sneered.
"Mr. Cai, my movie has a budget of one million, are you really not going to invest a little bit?"
Cai Yinong's face froze, "One million? Why? It’s a joke, one million is not even enough to hire Liu Yifei. What are you doing?”
“I’m not going to give her money. Why should I give her money?” Li Mingyang said loudly. .
This... seems to have something going on!
Although I hate Liu Yifei, I have to admit that Liu Yifei's fame is too great.
The heroine of the Sino-US co-production "The King of Kung Fu"!
Jackie Chan, Li Lian’s masterpiece and the supporting actor.
Liu Yifei became an international movie star with just one movie.
The popularity is skyrocketing!
Not to mention her peers, even the big flowers are lower than her.
"Zero pay, you can imagine it." "Try it, if you succeed, you will make a lot of money!"
Cai Yinong was moved, no You are a fool if you are tempted.
With the added fame of The King of Kung Fu, Liu Yifei’s current movie salary can only be negotiated at least 3 million.
But Cai Yinong did not agree immediately.
Li Mingyang was taking advantage of the situation. She didn't want to get ahead of it. The benefits weren't big enough and she didn't want to offend Hua Yi.
Especially... Huayi is preparing to go public at this juncture.
Thinking of this, Cai Yinong took a deep look at Li Mingyang.
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
It is normal for Huayi to suppress Li Mingyang.
But if you can’t hold it back, Huayi will be in bad luck!
The next moment, Cai Yinong thought of Shanghai Film Group!
……
China Film and Shanghai Film are the two giants of domestic films.
Lao Ren, chairman of Shanghai Film Group Corporation, and Lao Han, chairman of China Film Group Corporation.
At this stage, Shanghai Film's revenue is crushing China Film's, and its profits are even lower than China Film's.
China Film has been on the verge of losing money in recent years.
As one of the largest capitals in the Shanghai circle, Shanghai Film Group focuses more on revenue and profits.
Lao Ren once said this: "We have a principle in running a business. We do not aim for lively scenes or superficial prosperity, but profit is king in development."
Lao Ren is only interested in profit, which is Li Mingyang's important reliance to break the situation.
However, in the process of communicating with Shanghai Film Industry, Li Mingyang found that he really overestimated Shanghai Film Industry.
With the possibility of Liu Yifei joining the cast and the total investment budget for the bouquet-like romance being only one million, Shanghai Film Academy was unwilling to invest.
"It's a good thing for young people to be energetic, but you can't be impulsive." Director Tian sighed, "Don't be too busy. Even if you have the ability to shoot it, you won't be able to pass the review. You won't be able to pass the review. What does a movie mean? I have told you many times."
"They can't stay stuck..." Li Mingyang said.
"If you are stuck for three to five years, there will be no problem at all."
Well, this time is indeed too long. "Teacher Tian, if my photos are okay, can the school do a little favor?"
"They are discussing whether to expel you..."
Li Mingyang was speechless and knelt down. It's too fast.
"Do you want to come to the directing department?" Director Tian said.
Now that I'm going to the directing department, isn't it because I'm afraid of Huayi?
Now that it’s come to this, I definitely can’t retreat!
Li Mingyang rejected Director Tian's kindness, hung up the phone, and continued to prepare for the movie.
When I called and sent messages to senior brothers and sisters who are famous at Beijing Film Academy, and asked them to make a movie, most people took him for granted.
Except for a few people who advised him not to take pictures.
That's it, even without Liu Yifei's public rejection...
Huayi is really scary at this time...
Not only can't find other stars to join.
It’s also very difficult to get good behind-the-scenes jobs. It’s not a matter of money.
The most serious issue of seniority in the entertainment industry is behind the scenes.
Major directors generally have their own production team, and internal staff must inform their superiors in advance when accepting private work, and they cannot accept work casually.
Huayi has said hello to many major directors in the Beijing circle that they will never praise Liu Yifei.
Even behind the scenes are involved.
