"Ten million!"
Cheng Hao's scream echoed in the small courtyard of Pipiao Hutong.
“Don’t shout, don’t be nervous.” Zhang Yuan pressed his hand to ask Cheng Hao to stay calm.
"Do you want to invest 10 million?"
"Invest in "Baolian Lantern"?"
"Just to let..." Cheng Hao saw Chang Chang was present and stopped talking.
You spent 10 million just to let Shu Chang play the heroine?
Cheng Hao was shocked by this number.
At the same time, a strong jealousy arose in her heart.
He took such good care of her that if he invested 10 million here, he would have to pay 4.5 million in compensation there.
In this way, all the Adidas endorsement money I just received will be spent.
The key point is that he is willing to spend so much money on her, which shows that Shu Chang is so important in his heart...
Chang Chang was also shocked.
Brother Yuan plans to spend 10 million to let me join the team!
I...how should I repay him?
A strong emotion surged into her heart, causing her to tighten her legs involuntarily.
In fact, they all misunderstood.
It is important for Shu Chang to star in this film.
Because after the hit "Baolian Lantern", Shu Chang's reputation and popularity have increased a lot.
This is a good thing for her personally and for the company.
She makes money, and the company also makes money, and at the same time, it can use her as a brand ambassador to attract more young people.
But what is more important is the film "Lotus Lantern" itself.
Just a few words.
After the 1986 version of "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong has a fixed image.
After the 1994 version of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Guan Gong had a fixed image.
After the 1987 version of "Dream of Red Mansions", Lin Daiyu had a fixed image.
After this version of "Lotus Lantern", Erlang Shen has a fixed image!
Erlang Shen: I am Jiao Enjun...
Teacher Jiao and Cheng Hao are fellow villagers, both from Qingdao.
After this version, it will be difficult for anyone to play Yang Jian again.
From then on, the only man in charge of Guanjiangkou was the Shandong man with a silver helmet and silver armor, a silver crown with phoenix wings on his head, a height of 180, and an aura of 2.3 meters.
Not to mention, this edition also has the most beautiful three holy ladies, Park Si-yeon.
The most beautiful Chang'e Yan Danchen.
Even Liu Xiaoqin, who plays the Queen Mother, is very domineering.
Teacher Chen Chuang’s barking dog also left a deep impression on people.
There is also Teacher You Benchang’s Taishang Laojun.
And teacher Wang Weiguo, who has just collaborated with Zhang Yuan in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and played the role of Master Yideng.
This professional, known as the "Jade Emperor", has played the role of the Jade Emperor six times.
Even because it is so classic, his image was printed on the underworld coin...
No one remembers that he played Lu Junyi, the Jade Unicorn, only the Jade Emperor.
From the costumes to the story to the actors, there is not a single aspect of this film that is crotch-inducing.
A classic masterpiece that guarantees guaranteed profits without losing money. Why shouldn’t he invest in it?
“But where did you get the money?” Cheng Hao asked, “Didn’t you spend almost all the advertising money?”
She knew about Zhang Yuan’s purchase of a house.
“The total price of this yard, plus the newly purchased yard, and the commercial houses purchased before and after, is about 20 million.”
"If you mortgage it to the bank, you should be able to get some money in exchange."
"Brother Yuan, if you don't sell the house, the worst I can do is stop acting." Shu Chang became anxious after hearing this.
“It’s not selling a house, it’s a mortgage loan.”
“It’s similar to a mortgage, except that the money from the mortgage goes directly into the developer’s pocket. This one goes into my pocket, so not only the assets are always worth buying A discount, and the interest rate is higher.”
“But no matter how high it is, it’s still much cheaper than borrowing money from a loan shark.”
"That's not good either. You'll lose a lot of interest money." Chang Chang still refused.
“This is a normal business practice, and all companies do this.”
“Ordinary people may not be able to borrow it if they want to do this.”
Zhang Yuan figured that Fatty Zhao was engaged in engineering and was familiar with banks, so he had to ask him to help introduce him.
The bank loan interest is six points per year, but this is only on the books.
In addition to the personal sophistication, it takes about ten points.
After all, what banks love to do most is lend money to people who don’t need it.
What I hate to do the most is lending money to people who need it.
If you need money, you have to let everyone who touches it get involved.
In this way, if you borrow 10 million, you will have to pay back at least 1 million in interest a year.
This is considered good, such as in capital-heavy industries such as real estate development.
Many companies go to banks for loans of 100 million, and get only 60 million, but you still have to repay the interest and principal of 100 million.
As for where the 40 million went?
Some things cannot be weighed as much as four or two, but they cannot be stopped even if they are weighed as much as a thousand catties.
“But if you lose money and cannot get your money back, won’t your house be taken away by the bank?”
"The coffins you have saved so hard over the years would have been gone!" Cheng Hao was still reluctant to part with them.
"How about I help you get it together? It's not that much, but one or two million is still..."
Zhang Yuan waved his hand.
“The company belongs to me, how can I ask you to pay for it.”
“And it’s the boss’s duty to protect the actors.”
"Don't worry, in the worst case I will go out to work to support you." He joked.
If it weren’t for Cheng Haozai, Chang Chang would have jumped into his arms when she heard this.
If Shu Chang hadn't been there, Cheng Hao would have dragged him to the bedroom.
But the problem is now both of them.
So that night, he slept on the cool bed.
A few days later, with the help of Zhao Decai, he quickly obtained the mortgage loan.
Fatty Zhao was shocked and thought he was trying too hard.
I also wanted to ask him to borrow the money.
To be honest, if Zhang Yuan borrows 10 million yuan from everywhere, maybe he can actually borrow it.
But favors cannot be used forever, they must be used wisely, so he is still more willing to find a way by himself.
In order to obtain some working capital, he also asked Cheng Hao to help him accept advertisements for some small brands.
From snacks, instant noodles, to drinks, it’s a busy schedule.
On the other side, after receiving Zhang Yuan’s call reply, Zhao Jian found Li Gongda, the producer of "Lotus Lantern".
“No, no!”
In the large photography studio where construction was finishing, Li Gongda waved his hands repeatedly.
"I won't use an actor like this who has no rules and completely ignores the basic moral bottom line!"
Li Gongda's voice is not small to begin with, and when he spoke at this noisy construction site, his volume was even louder.
The louder the voice, the louder the temper.
But he has a big temper and does have a lot of capital.
First of all, this person is a screenwriter. If nothing else, most people know that "Beijingers in New York" was a hit drama back then, and he was the one who wrote it.
Later, he changed his career to planning, and his contribution to "Journey to the West" was credited to him.
After that, he finally transformed into the producer he dreamed of.
The first work is called "The Phoenix", starring Jiao Enjun, Park Si-yeon, Zhou Jie and others... This team has continued into his second work, which is the current "Lotus Lantern" "superior.
I am considered a veteran in the imperial circle and have a good relationship with CCTV.
So even Zhao Jian was extremely polite to him.
In addition, due to budget overruns in the past few days, he was already anxious and angry, and when there was a problem with the female lead's contract, he was naturally in a very bad mood.
When this happened before filming started, he decided at that time that he would never use Shu Sing again.
"Producer Li, we have talked about this."
"And that guy Zhang Yuan asked me to say hello..."
Zhao Jian hasn't finished yet. , Li Gongda interrupted.
"Zhang Yuan?"
"I know, Xiaogang mentioned it at the wine table."
He is very familiar with Feng Xiaogang. In the film "Beijingers in New York", he was The screenwriter, Lan Xiaolong is the director, and Feng Xiaogang is the executive director.
He watched how Feng Xiaogang got up step by step.
“I heard that boy is quite popular recently.”
"Oh, so what if he's hot!" Li Gongda squinted his eyes: "If he's hot now, how many more days will he be hot?"
"Besides, what does his fire have to do with me?"
"He has no face with me."
"He still wants to help Shu Chang speak, what a loser he is!"
He and Zhang Yuan don't know each other, they are still seniors , why should I sell your face?
Zhao Jian was helpless. Old Li Tou had such a temper that he didn't even let me finish my sentence.
"No, Producer Li, our crew has a funding gap of 10 million yuan."
"Why do you care about this? I will naturally find a way to solve it. You care about your filming That's fine." Li Gongda glanced at him, fearing that Zhao Jian would run away because of this.
"Zhang Yuan said that the 10 million he contributed is considered as an investment and a shareholding."
Li Gongda:...
"I've seen this guy look like a superstar!" Producer Li choked out these words after a long time.
“No wonder Xiaogang mentioned him to me, he turned out to be a promising young man.”
“I want to meet him in person and have a good chat with him.” “I like to talk to him the most. Young people are chatting.”
Zhao Jian:…
Why do you sound like farting when you talk?
Didn’t you just say what kind of green onion he is...
Okay, if someone gives me 10 million, I will think that even if it is a pig, I will feel handsome.
"That matter about Shu Chang..."
Li Gongda frowned, obviously hesitating.
Zhao Jian hurriedly explained the matter thoroughly to Lao Li.
"Oh, that's it."
"Young people have been deceived and met bad people." Li Gongda is an old man in the world, and he understands it as soon as he hears it.
“For a promising and talented young actor like Shu Chang.”
“We must support him.”
"Especially in this critical moment, we must show the caring spirit of our imperial film and television circles."
After hearing what he said, Zhao Jian gave a thumbs up.
Otherwise I can only be the martial arts instructor, and you and Big Beard can be the chief producers.
They all talk in the same way, and they fall out faster than turning the pages of a book.
He signed a contract with the crew of "Lotus Lantern".
Zhang Yuan agreed with the other party that the money would be paid in three batches, and he would have to account for 1/3 of the subsequent film sales, copyrights, and peripheral income.
Another day, Shu Chang carefully came to the Hengdian set of "Lotus Lantern" again.
The crew built a large studio of more than 5,000 square meters, which cost a lot of money.
"Hey, Shu Chang is here, hurry up and get a glass of water." When Li Gongda saw her, he greeted her with a smile on his face.
Chang Chang was stunned for a moment at a loss.
"You were scolding me a few days ago..."
"Come here, move a seat for our heroine. That Xiao Zhou, come and put on makeup and change clothes for Shu Chang."
"From now on, when you are on the set, Xiao Zhou will follow you the whole time, applying and touching up makeup for you, and also doing some assistant work."
"My assistant and separate makeup artist?" Singing is still the first step. I'll get this kind of treatment.
"You are our heroine, very important."
Shu Chang was not stupid, and he quickly reacted.
“Could this be what Brother Yuan said, the experience of bringing money into a group?”
Chang Chang looked up to the north, she clasped her hands and put them on her chest, looking forward to it. Meet Zhang Yuan as soon as possible.
【Received thanks from Shu Chang, memory +1, logical thinking ability +1! 】
At the other end of the imperial capital, Zhang Yuanzheng and Cheng Hao were negotiating with the crew of "Three Drops of Blood".
Zhang Yuan was a little panicked now.
Because the way Cheng Hao looked when he was angry made him very scared.
Shandong girls are so fierce.
The contrast between this and the tender look at night is huge.
Bargained with the producer opposite, speaking interchangeably, without giving in.
In the end, the compensation was not tripled according to the contract.
After all, if there is a lawsuit, Shu Chang can say that he terminated the contract with his agent and did not receive the money.
It’s just that the other party will expose her and cause trouble, which will damage her reputation, and it takes a long time to litigate. Even if she wins, it will leave a stain on her acting career.
The other party also knows that if you actually file a lawsuit, you may not be able to get compensation for the contract price.
In the end, everyone took a step back, and Zhang Yuan took out three million to settle the matter.
"Huh... I'm so angry!" Cheng Hao angrily walked out of the office building. Zhang Yuan used the compensation contract as a fan to fan her away.
“Why be so angry?”
“For negotiation, just pretend to be angry and scare people. Being really angry will hurt your body.”
Cheng Hao was confused by him. One glance.
Do you think I’m angry with them?
I'm angry at you!
I spent more than 10 million on Shu Chang without blinking an eye, and even paid for the house.
Zhang Yuan looked away with a guilty conscience.
I explained it to you, but you didn’t listen.
The over 10 million yuan is not for Shu Changhua, it is for making money.
Moreover, it is good to have a good relationship with Li Gongda, because he will also be filming "Magic Phone" in the future, so he must find a long-term meal ticket for Shu Chang.
It’s terrible for women to be emotional!
"You still have a lot of money on hand now, go to the bank to pay back the money." Seeing his aggrieved look, Cheng Hao felt funny in his heart, but he felt relieved a lot.
She was still reluctant to part with the millions in interest. After all, her salary for filming a movie was only so small, but the bank took it away.
“I can still use the remaining money.”
"Besides, even if this kind of loan is paid back in advance, the interest will still be a penny."
"The bank door opens to the south, and he will have to earn your money life and death."
Cheng Hao I feel unhappy.
Zhang Yuan sighed, these two girls are enough for me, what will I do in the future?
“Okay, with the extra money I have, I will also find you a job.”
A while ago, Yu Zheng contacted him.
He prepared a script called "The Harem of the Qing Dynasty".
This old boy sued his "rebellious teacher" Li Huimin in the name of "plagiarism".
And this old guy’s script for "The Harem of the Qing Dynasty" actually "borrowed" a lot from the Hong Kong film "The Golden Branch", which was a hit in the past few years and started the "Era of Palace Fighting".
Others are thick-skinned at most, but Yu Zheng is different. He is shameless.
What this guy loves to do most is to spread his face.
So even though the script was clearly similar to "The Love of the Golden Branch", he wanted to premiere it in Hong Kong.
Therefore, it is best to find a Xiangjiang company to cooperate.
Yu Zheng’s character is worrisome, but his mind is excellent.
He thought that "The Love of the Golden Branch" was produced by TVB, so he wanted to find ATV to invest in broadcasting it.
At that time, Run Run Shaw and Lin Baixin were fighting fiercely. TVB and ATV were sworn enemies!
He caught that right.
ATV definitely doesn’t want TVB to be in the limelight, so I will create a similar work for ATV.
But without the help of Li Huimin, an old man from Xiangjiang, he discussed it with people from ATV several times, but to no avail.
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny. Who are you? People will ignore you.
So Yu Zheng found Zhang Yuan.
Zhang Yuan directly contacted Lin Jianyue, the boss of Media Asia, through Brother Hua.
The Lin Baixin who had a fierce fight with Run Run Shaw back then was his father.
Moreover, the previous "Initial D" was invested by Lin Jianyue. When I heard that Zhang Yuan wanted to make a TVB movie, I became excited.
His father just passed away a while ago, although the Lin family had already quit ATV due to huge losses.
However, Lin Baixin has always retained her identity as a permanent director of ATV.
After his father died, Lin Jianyue, who inherited the family property, also received his honorary seat on ATV.
What this top second-generation ancestor of Xiangjiang wants to do most in his life is to prove himself.
While his father strictly prohibited him from getting involved in the entertainment industry, he invested in Media Asia and made the "Infernal Affairs" series a huge success. He also listed Media Asia in Singapore and made a lot of money.
It is because of this move that Lin Baixin, who was defeated in the duel with Shaw in the early years, is quite satisfied.
Coupled with the fact that the other children were really unsatisfactory, Lin Jianyue was confirmed as the heir to the Lin family.
So now when I hear it, I feel disgusted by TVB, and this guy’s nose is about to burst with snot bubbles.
This is a feud!
Just take one shot now!
Yu Zheng was stunned for a long time when he received the reply.
Xin Shuo was so right to open a company with Zhang Yuan!
What I couldn't solve after a long time, they directly contacted the director of ATV in minutes.
“The total investment in this film is 20 million, with ATV providing half, and Fatty Zhao and I each contributing 5 million.”
“Yu Zheng wrote the script, planned it, and supervised the production. It is considered a technical Buy shares.”
“Anyway, after the cost is removed, the money will be divided according to the shares.”
"Although this film is under the name of Yu Zheng's company, I am actually both an investor and a shareholder."
"So I have arranged a job for you." After getting into the car going home, Zhang Yuan hugged He held her close and kept stroking her back to help her calm down.
"I won't accept small roles, I'm busy." The good sister shook her long wavy hair.
“The female lead, I forced her to come.”
“Yu Zheng originally wanted to cast Hu Jing because she has acted in several period dramas, "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang", "Yangmen Tiger General" "It's all quite successful."
"Now I think you can take over your senior sister."
Hu Jing is also one of the eight golden flowers in the 96th grade of the Chinese Opera, one grade higher than Cheng Hao, who is 97th grade.
Hearing what she said, Cheng Hao felt relieved a lot.
It turns out that I also have the perks of bringing capital into the group.
After returning home, after dinner, he followed Cheng Hao into the bedroom.
"Why did you come in?"
"Sleep."
"I think it's better for you to sleep alone." Cheng Hao was almost done with his anger, and he deliberately had sex with him
"Miss Chen, you don't understand the rules." Zhang Yuan waved his finger.
“As an investor, I’ll get you a heroine position, won’t there be any return at all?”
"Besides, isn't it right for investors to sleep with heroines?"
Cheng Hao was so shocked that he didn't know how to refute it.
While she was stunned, Zhang Yuan picked her up and threw her onto the bed, then kicked the door shut with a kick.
Facts have proved that women cannot be persuaded and can only sleep in clothes.
Because some words are difficult to say with your mouth.
But speaking of the body, it’s very simple.
When I got up the next day, Cheng Hao's attitude returned to normal.
Zhang Yuan, on the other hand, dressed up and went with Lin Cong to meet Shang Jing and Ning Caishen, who had already made an appointment... (End of this chapter)
