After making the call, Zhang Yuan returned to the dining table.
"Dandan, your last advertising fee will arrive in your account soon."
Zhao Juexuan immediately stood up and bowed to thank her. The movement was so big that her neat ponytail was shaken. In mid-air.
“Thank you, Brother Zhang Yuan!”
[Received the thanks from Zhao Jue, +1 for martial arts basics! 】
Look, this girl is still a real person.
It’s refreshing to be consistent in what you say and what you do.
“What money?” Liu Qianqian turned her head and asked her “substitute”.
As soon as Zhao Xunjie explained what had happened, everyone else felt that Zhang Yuan was not a bad person and that he would think of his friends before anything good happened.
For actors like them, eight thousand may not be a lot of money.
But for a martial arts student like Zhao Jue, this is already a huge sum of money.
Only Liu Xiaoli looked surprised.
"His endorsement fee is no lower than that of Sissi!"
Aunt Liu knows very well what level her daughter is.
How many resources were piled up!
It's better now. In the early days, advertisements were basically obtained through the relationship with the godfather.
So Boss Chen basically lost money in the past two years.
But Boss Chen comes from a real estate background and knows the importance of early investment.
No, it has already started to make a profit this year.
Especially after Liu Qianqian was confirmed to play the role of Xiao Longnu, she has continued to have business endorsements.
But all this has preconditions, and the preconditions are the ones mentioned above.
A lot of money and connections were thrown into it.
But in the final analysis, Zhang Yuan is just a gangster, and he is already comparable to his daughter who was "built with a lot of money".
Can Liu Xiaoli not be surprised?
“He is so powerful.” Even the well-informed Aunt Liu found that she had never seen a second young man like Zhang Yuan.
After eating, I started to work.
Others couldn't tell, but Liu Xiaoli glanced and noticed that Yu Min had a frown on her face today and looked listless.
Obviously he was severely criticized by the bearded man.
Seeing his appearance, Liu Xiaoli felt funny.
A great director has nothing to do with a young actor.
Thinking about it this way, I feel more and more that Zhang Yuan is a great guy, and he is more pleasing to the eye.
On the other side, Zhang Yuan was lying on the cold jade bed.
It was the cold jade bed where he said Xiao Longnu would sleep in Gong Han.
This crappy thing was made of blue plastic and had LED lights inside. Zhang Yuan didn’t dare to move it much after lying on it, for fear of collapsing it.
On the other side, Liu Qianqian "slept" on a hemp rope as thick as Northeast garlic sausage.
Of course, there is a wire hanging on the body.
This is still a martial arts novel. How can a normal person sleep on a rope?
The two of them maintained their own state, speaking words and filming at the same time.
At halftime, Zhang Yuan noticed that Liu Qianqian was in a somewhat unnatural state.
"What, your butt is scratching?" He walked up and asked.
Liu Qianqian rubbed her buttocks with one hand and glanced at him sideways.
"That hemp rope, it's always..."
"What's the old thing?"
"It's so frustrating." Liu Qianqian whispered with a blushing face.
Don’t grind your buttocks.
"Have you never worn a thong?" Zhang Yuan thought, isn't that also a rope?
"No..." she replied like a mosquito, while shaking her head slightly.
Her underwear is still bought by her mother. How can she have such mature things?
Of course, it is not clear whether Liu Xiaoli herself has Zhang Yuan.
This girl has a lot of projects to be developed... Zhang Yuan smiled and stretched out his hand.
"Qian, you also know that I can massage."
"How about I massage it for you."
"Uh-huh!"
Just in Zhang Yuan Moving her fingers, Liu Qianqian blushed and was in a dilemma when a very hard coughing sound came from behind them.
Liu Xiaoli looked at Zhang Yuan with a straight face.
It was pleasing to the eye at first, but now it is not pleasing to the eye again.
"Let me help you press your neck. Your wig is so heavy, so your neck must be very sore." Zhang Yuan quickly changed his words.
"Oh." Liu Qianqian turned her head. Her neck had indeed been sore recently.
"Please press the button after the show is over for a while. I'm going to recite the lyrics first." Zhang Yuan felt Liu Xiaoli's lioness gaze from behind him and hurried away.
Halfway through the run, he hurried back and whispered something in Liu Qianqian's ear.
"Put some toilet paper on it."
After that, he walked away quickly again.
“Hey.” Xiao Longnu responded softly with a smile.
Liu Xiaoli looked at her girl's foolish look, rubbing her brows in worry.
“If I hadn’t been there, one of them would really dare to rub, and the other would really dare to be rubbed.”
Looking back, my girl put her gauze gown over her head, stretched out her hands, and jumped around pretending to be a zombie.
A group of people around her looked at her like she was a fool.
Only Zhang Yuan covered his chest and pretended to be scared, playing along with her.
It’s weird if you don’t like him if you coax him like this.
She is not afraid of the thief now, but now she is afraid that the husky will open the door for the thief!
The next day, morning.
Early in the morning, Zhang Yuan received a call from Zhao Yanmin, the owner of Hairun Film and Television.
"Hello, Mr. Zhao."
Zhang Yuan had a good chat with the other party.
And Boss Zhao was also very polite to him.
Of course you're welcome!
Zhang Yuan is one of the hottest niche students nowadays.
In fact, Hairun Film and Television, like Ciwen and Huayi, are both production and management comprehensive film and television companies.
Zhang Yuan has long said that this kind of comprehensive company has great disadvantages.
Hua Yi suffered a lot after Wang Jinhua left.
Hairun Film and Television also suffered this disaster later.
Who is Hairun’s current “first sister”?
Of course it’s Sun Li, the “Empress” who is famous throughout the country for her role in “Jade Guanyin”!
As for the "first brother", it should be Liu Ye.
These positions actually "made their fortune" by discovering Jiang Wenli, another well-known female manager in the imperial circle, and a contract artist of Chang Jihong.
Later, Chang Jihong "jumped" to Xingmei, the same company where Liu Qianqian's former manager Liu Yonghui left.
Sun Li and others were also taken away, which greatly damaged Hairun's vitality.
But these are things for the future. Hairun Film and Television is still very powerful now, and its strength in the TV drama circle far exceeds Hua Yi.
Knowing that Zhang Yuan contacted him proactively and wanted to cooperate, Boss Zhao was naturally happy.
It would be even better if we could accept this "general".
He was also an insider and had heard about it. Hua Yi, Ciwen and Cheng Tian were all interested in this kid.
If I could win it myself, wouldn’t it be a great advantage?
So I got Zhang Yuan to talk about it and blew them up at Hairun Film and Television.
Of course Zhang Yuan responded politely.
But I thought to myself that the works of this company are really not suitable for me.
Because it is either a romance film or a criminal investigation drama. The extremely famous "Serious Case Group Six" is a well-known series of works by Hairun.
The key point is that the productions of their company are not only shot slowly, but also paid less, and there are already a large number of well-known actors occupying the positions, leaving no room for their own operations.
But even so, it is still enough to increase the bargaining chip with Hua Yi.
Originally, he was deliberately building momentum to create an image of himself being popular and being snapped up by many companies. Contact with Hairun also had this effect.
"Zhang Yuan, how do you plan to cooperate with our company." "I am very sincere personally. The company also has several film and television dramas to be filmed, so we can discuss them." This was the first time the other party contacted him. Naturally, you have to throw out the bait.
But whether to accept it or not is up to him.
“That’s right, Mr. Zhao, I’m actually a fan of the novel “Bright Sword”.”
“I heard that “Bright Sword” will be adapted into a TV series by your company. There is this "Is that okay?"
"Yes..." Zhao Yanmin replied hesitantly.
The reason why he felt strange was that he himself was not very optimistic about the show "Bright Sword".
He came into contact with this play because of a chance encounter with this novel while waiting for a flight at the airport.
It just so happened that the flight to the United States took thirteen hours, and he finished reading this novel of more than 400,000 words on the plane.
After reading it, he returned to China and found someone to buy the copyright.
After getting to know Liu Yanming later, he felt that he was a little impulsive at the time.
Because the original author Du Liang wrote a novel for the first time in 2000, and his work was "Bright Sword".
In terms of literary attainments, this book can only be considered third-rate.
But as a novel with the background of the Anti-Japanese War, it is very enjoyable.
After the book was published, the copyright was sold quickly for 188,000.
A year later, the copyright was bought by a Guangdong company for 600,000 yuan.
Later, it came into the hands of Liu Yanming, who spent 1 million.
Why don't Guazi used cars use "no middlemen to make the difference" as their advertising slogan?
After buying it, Liu Yanming planned to produce and shoot it.
As a result, something went wrong, and the script failed to pass several reviews.
Because in the second half of the novel, the protagonists of the story met an extremely tragic end, truly running away with their lives or injuries.
Liu Yanming had experienced that era and was deeply touched by these plots.
He loved the tragic ending of the story.
Moreover, in the novel, the protagonist Li Yunlong was very foul-mouthed and full of nonsense in the early stage, and the army was also very dissatisfied.
Liu Yanming was numb.
If there are problems at the front and back, how can we still shoot?
In fact, this is considered bad luck for him, because the coming year will happen to be the 60th anniversary of the victory over anti-fascism. The country attaches great importance to the military-themed film and television dramas produced this year, and he is right in the crosshairs.
In the end, you have to rely on an expert, the screenwriter Jiang Qitao, who was the screenwriting teacher of "The Righteous Way in the World Is Vicissitudes" and "The Young Marshal".
He greatly deleted and revised the work, directly deleting the second half of the content, and slightly restrained the character of Li Yunlong, and then it passed the review.
The script was finally settled, and Liu Yanming was already very tired.
Then it was time to find actors.
At the beginning, the Li Yunlong in his mind was actually Tang Guoqiang.
He offered the other party a salary of 550,000 yuan, but Teacher Tang refused.
Later, the offer was increased all the way to 1 million, but the other party still refused.
Teacher Tang felt that this character did not match his own image.
At that time, Mr. Tang had already played the role of a great man. He felt that if he played a revolutionary soldier with an out-of-character personality, the audience would have a bad association.
The veteran artist is still very pursuing the roles he plays, and he is also very rigorous in accepting roles.
Liu Yanming became numb again.
The script I liked was drastically changed, and the actor I wanted refused to star in it.
Looking back now, I feel that I was a little impulsive.
Thinking about it again, this novel may not be that good after all.
At this point, the copyright fees have been paid, so they can’t be wasted.
As mentioned just now, the coming year will mark the 60th anniversary of the victory of anti-fascism. While the state review is strict, it also provides a lot of support.
Then take the photo.
In the two years from 2004 to 2005, Hairun Film and Television produced a total of 12 TV series!
In filming, one invests first and earns later. When filming more than ten movies in a row, the investment must be high or low. Some people take it seriously, and some don’t.
The mainstay of Hairun is Hai Yan's drama, so the budget is of course very tight for Hai Yan's works.
The two Haiyan dramas cost more than 30,000 to 40,000,000 yuan, and the leading actress is Sun Li.
The big drama "Blood Romance" was arranged for Liu Ye. Of course, the female lead is still Sun Li. Boss Zhao really praises her!
In addition, Wang Qian, who is famous for "Senior Case Group Six", must be praised. Her husband Xu Qindong is the director of "Serious Case Group Six" and has long-term cooperation with Hairun.
In the end, after all the calculations, the budget was given to those who wanted to support it, and those who had connections were taken away.
After checking the company's accounts, the budget left for "Bright Sword" was less than 9 million at most.
And more than two million of it is for post-production and public relations. In other words, the total of pre-preparation and shooting is less than seven million.
You know, the crew of "Conquest" two years ago was so poor and there were only a few actors, but it still cost more than four million!
Furthermore, Sun Honglei, the highest paid actor in "Conquer", was only over 20,000 yuan.
The protagonist of "Bright Sword" is teacher Li Youbin, as well as teacher Lu Fengxian, Zhang Guangbei and other acting talents.
Just give Teacher Li tens of thousands of dollars, isn't it appropriate?
So, Teacher Li’s salary is 500,000, and the other major well-known actors also have salaries ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands.
After removing the remuneration, the crew has even less disposable funds.
Moreover, "Bright Sword" is a war movie. It's just a couple of things, but they also have to film the "Battle of Peace Grad"!
The two directors were worried all day long and had no choice but to find ways to "sneak off".
The Bayi Factory has a lot of space.
For the anti-fascist cause, your Bayi Factory must do your best.
The crew has two cameras in total, one for close-up and one for long-range.
That’s it, I’m still using the Shanghai Film Studio’s machine.
For the anti-fascist cause, you Shanghai Film Studio should do your best.
In the later plot of the military school, the school is affiliated with the Shenyang Military Region.
For the cause of anti-fascism, your Shenyang Military Region...
After the deputy director and executive director came to the crew, they only did their own jobs a few times and put on military uniforms to make guest appearances.
The boys who delivered lunch boxes were all dragged into acting as extras.
Every dog passing by had to be pulled over to take a few shots.
At that time, there was no precise adjective for this behavior.
Later generations will have it, and it will be called "Sai Guofan".
But even if the crew is so poor, the actors have never lowered their performance requirements. What does it mean to be professional?
Because the budget was so bleak and the script and actors were going back and forth, Boss Zhao did not have high hopes for this drama.
Consider it as completing the political mission.
When Boss Zhao heard that Zhang Yuan was a fan of "Bright Sword", he first felt a sense of intimacy like meeting an old friend in a foreign country.
Then, he started to chew the yahuazi.
"Zhang Yuan."
"I'm afraid you won't be able to participate in this play."
"For one thing, the budget is relatively small."
Boss Zhao is not a fool. He has already inquired about Zhang Yuan's net worth. Now that he is filming a movie, excluding abnormal ones like a big beard, the price is basically one million.
"Secondly, there is no role suitable for you."
He also knows that Zhang Yuan plays mostly chic, elegant, handsome characters, which are not in tune with anti-war movies.
“Thirdly, the filming of this film has just started, so it is not appropriate to make a temporary substitution...”
“Ouch.” Zhang Yuan replied with a voice filled with regret: “ That’s troublesome.”
"I really like this book."
"Is there really nothing I can do to help?"
"Is there anything else I can do to help the crew?"
"It seems not." Boss Zhao shook his head.
“Hey, by the way, you just said that the budget of this film is small, how much is it?”
"It's more difficult." Boss Zhao still hugged him and said.
"Then can I add some money to make it less difficult for them?"
"Huh?"
Zhao Yanmin was dumbfounded.
No...
I have only seen actors come to my company to make money.
I have never seen an actor come to our company to give money!
Boss Zhao felt that he might have met a fool... (End of chapter)
