Although Song Ang said that he could not "actively" destroy the content of the supplementary agreement, there was still no problem in being a promoter behind it.
As long as he has a good grasp of the scale, it will not harm his actual interests, but it can also create a wave of popularity for the movie. Most importantly, it can disgust people like Dai Chengbi, and he can also ease his anger a little bit——
Tao Tang also made an in-depth analysis of Song Ang's mentality and knew that this man was a "profit first" capitalist. At least he would not completely break up before getting real money, so after releasing the first public relations update, he
Ignore the clamor on the Internet.
The abuse and malicious attacks from "netizens" are still continuing. Among them, the official blog of the movie "Cure" and Dai Chengbi were hit the hardest. Xia Yu was also affected. Because of the article "Xia Yu returned to the crew with a high profile, co-director Dai Chengbi expelled Director Song Ang"
Crew!”
Was criticized as, "Individualism is too heavy and cannot accommodate other outstanding directors——"
Netizens who were influenced by movies produced by Song Ang Studio such as "Prisoner" and "The Imperial Guard" all attacked one after another.
"If you can't tolerate Director Song, you should have made your own movies long ago. What's the point of joining Director Song's crew? To put it bluntly, I just care about the script. I'm so serious and upright!" "I really thought that I would turn over after filming "The Prison".
A niche director is a niche director. If I hadn’t known that Director Song invested in this movie, I would have given you a slap in the face!"
"That is to say, our Director Song is very generous, doesn't care about you, and doesn't bother to play these little tricks with you - we just wait and see whether your Xia Yu Studio can create box office miracles without Director Song!"
These remarks continued for a day or two, and finally Song Ang stepped in to "settle the matter."
His remarks won a round of cheers and favor, "This is our internal matter. Director Dai and I are also very good friends. I hope everyone can have a friendly discussion and we will no longer occupy public resources!"
Regarding the entertainment headlines made by director Song Ang in the movie "Cure" in the past two days, uninformed outsiders are very enthusiastic, but those who have worked with Song Ang sneer, "Song Ang is so grand? Hey, he is a tyrant on the set, and he will be punished."
——”
They have all suffered at his hands.
Many of them were scolded and blamed for their own problems, and some were tortured by his directing methods. However, these people did not deny that Song Ang was the most generous director they had ever worked with. When it came to money, he never
No procrastination, no stinginess.
At the same time, he also recognized his talent and did an excellent job as a director——
Excellent people are more arrogant, and some shortcomings are understandable?
This incident also brought some negative impact to Xia Yu and Yu Junhao.
The two are still young actors currently active at the top of the film industry. After all, they still have acting skills and strong appeal at the box office, but the entertainment industry is changing very quickly.
Although they are still popular, they currently do not have the popularity of new works, and they are definitely not as good as the so-called top artists who are constantly being born under the star-making model of other major brokerage companies. The hot searches on Weibo are also very realistic, and there is no need to worry about it.
Long.
In addition, both of them were Buddhists and did not respond, so the matter was quickly resolved.
Only a small group of people are left, and they are attacking everywhere with these so-called excuses.
Tao Tang took over the crew of "Healing" and made arrangements in an orderly manner.
Early the next morning.
She contacted Director Xie immediately.
After receiving the invitation, Director Xiao Xie was following Zhuang He to handle the post-production of "Jinling Festival". He hadn't read the news yet, and his first reaction was that he was not convinced, "Isn't this film a project directed by Song Ang? Is it because there is a lack of assistant directors?"
Tao Tang said bluntly, "No, Director Song Ang resigned - the entire team withdrew from the filming of "Cure"!"
Director Xie also worked at Great Wall Film and Television, and had seen and heard too many twists and turns. After hearing this, he had a general idea even if he hadn't read the news, but he still didn't understand, "Director Dai is not in your studio.
?I remember he was——"
As a matter of fact, he had also experienced that feeling. The family did not speak the same language. He asked in surprise, "Are they Director Dai and Director Song?"
"Yes, Director Dai has now moved behind the scenes as an assistant director, so Director Xie doesn't have to be under too much pressure."
Tao Tang's character is cautious. In fact, according to Xia Yu's words, he probably means the same thing.
"We are making a movie here, but we are missing a director. You have read the script. Are you coming or not?"
However, Tao Tang is an agent after all, so he is afraid of trouble in the future, so he has to break everything down and sort it out for him.
Director Xie must be very happy about this matter. If the current trend continues, he will at least be an assistant director in Zhuanghe, his own teacher, and various teams of Great Wall Film and Television for three to five years. Great Wall Film and Television only
An independent film will be arranged for him - but which young man is not anxious, but this matter is really not something he can have the final say, even though it was Tao Tang who sent the invitation.
"I have to report this to Director Zhuang. I can't make a decision at the moment!"
"Okay!" Tao Tang also knew the process and procedures there, but this matter definitely didn't go away.
In less than an hour, Director Xie returned Tao Tang's call, "Mr. Tao, I picked up this movie!"
After receiving the news confirmed by Xie Guanhui, Xia Yu and others breathed a sigh of relief - because Dai Chengbi also contacted Cheng Zhiqing at the same time, but Cheng Zhiqing was not convinced yet. After all, he was already in his fifth year of school in terms of age, which was different from what was in the script.
Bai Jianen is ten years old.
The most important thing is that his next drama has been scheduled for early January!
Although he is not the leading role, just a supporting role, the role is not light. Even at his level, he no longer has to spend a long time to study the script like a young man like Xia Yu, but it still takes ten days and a half!
Teacher Ning Lifen, Cheng Zhiqing, and Ding Ye are all about to have their schedules rushed together. Now it's November again. According to this situation, the official start of filming will not be until mid-to-late November. There is only a little time for them.
To two months!
"Should this film be filmed this year or postponed to next year?" This is a major decision-making problem before everyone!
No one knows yet what kind of accident will happen in less than two months...
"Shoot!" Dai Chengbi finally made the decision. After all, he has the most experience in this area.
"Let's talk to a few teachers. If the salary is increased, at worst, they will share all my salary. I don't want anything in return. Let's work overtime and see if we can complete the filming within two months!"
He immediately sent the entire script to Cheng Zhiqing's email address——
It wasn't until the evening that Cheng Zhiqing responded to the message, and there weren't that many twists and turns, just four words, "Prepare the contract!"
With the confirmation of two important roles, the formation of this crew is almost half complete.
The rest are the photography team, the set team, the art team, and the makeup team - since they have the title of "connected households" of Great Wall Film and Television, of course they can't ignore this to become a bigger backer. After all, the box office will eventually benefit.
It is also linked to you.
Tao Tang directly called the department in charge of Great Wall Film and Television. After communicating, he learned that the small team of Great Wall Film and Television responsible for "Drawing Ground" was preparing to take on another project. However, knowing that they needed manpower, he declined directly from another crew.
I took the initiative to contact Tao Tang and decided to join the crew of "The Cure". With this, the new crew of the movie "The Cure" was formed!
On the same day, except for Cheng Zhiqing, who was filming in the southwest, director Xiao Xie, and the Great Wall Film and Television team all completed the signing of the contract; and after communication with Teacher Ning Lifen, she said that it didn’t matter if she worked overtime, as long as the filming was good!
The agents of Zhang Yunlan and Ding Ye each offered additional remuneration. After all, the shooting time was originally scheduled to be twelve hours a day, but now it has increased to sixteen or eighteen hours. The two people must have a considerable physical impact.
The burden - after all, it was the main creative team who was responsible for the loss, and the quotations of the two parties were also within a reasonable range. If they went up, they would go up, and they also signed another supplementary agreement.
Although Teacher Ning Lifen said that she would not charge additional money due to her relationship and personal dedication to filming, Tao Tang could not let this veteran actor with both virtue and skill suffer a loss. According to the other actors
The increased salary was increased all at once, and was not allowed to be refused. It was paid directly into the card. Now that it was all paid, Teacher Ning Lifen could only sign the supplementary agreement with a look of emotion and relief.
On November 9th, Cheng Zhiqing's role was wrapped up. He rushed back to the Imperial Capital from the southwest in the early morning of the 10th. He landed at 5:30 in the morning and at 7:00 in the breakfast stall, the contract was officially signed.
Xia Yu and this veteran actor haven't seen each other for a while, but with Dai Chengbi in the middle, the relationship has been maintained very well. Unlike last time, this time he was finally able to play a good role with Cheng Zhiqing.
Already.
Xia Yu was also looking forward to it, and smiled, "Teacher Cheng, I have been waiting for this time for two years, and I can finally cooperate with you again!"
Thinking back to the last time, she was suppressed throughout the whole process and was filmed for several days under huge pressure. She felt helpless and frustrated, and more importantly, she couldn't fully take on the role of Cheng Zhiqing!
Cheng Zhiqing felt Xia Yu's eagerness to give it a try and smiled, "Okay, let me see if your acting skills, little girl, have improved in the past two years!" In fact, after watching "Drawing the Ground as a Prison", he has a lot of thoughts about it.
He is also looking forward to Xia Yu's acting skills.
As for Yu Junhao, Cheng Zhiqing is somewhat "envious and jealous" in his heart. Not counting his bitter past, he can really be regarded as the representative of "smooth sailing" in the entertainment industry. He became famous at a young age, unlike him who struggled for more than ten years.
It took me ten years to get ahead.
There is no such thing as thirty. Thirty is the golden age. Don’t be afraid of being too late in your forties or fifties. “Late bloomer” sounds good, but he doesn’t like it. If you look at other people in their teens and twenties, they are already successful and famous, and those in their forties and fifties are withered.
Son.
There are as many regrets as there are roles that cannot be played!
Fortunately, he is relieved now.
He was also very pleased that this circle was becoming more and more flashy, with Xia Yu, Cheng Yun, and Yu Junhao, who could barely take over the baton from these "Mesozoic" old guys.
"Hello, Teacher Cheng!" Yu Junhao is also looking forward to Cheng Zhiqing's joining——
Playing against an experienced actor is an indescribable enjoyment!
Cheng Zhiqing was not good at words, but he was always open to expressing kindness. He smiled gently and said, "Hello, you are very good too!"
At the same time, after three days of working as a foreigner, Tao Tang finally got the remaining funds for the current crew from Song Ang Studio, deducting Xia Yu's seven million, Yu Junhao's twelve million, Dai Chengbi's three million, and Song's
7 million, and the rest of the actors added up to 10 million. Screenwriter Zhao Jinhong received 1% of the investment, and Ding Yuan received a total of 3 million scripts, a total of 42 million.
In other words, at present, the crew only has 18 million left in funding, not counting the salaries of Cheng Zhiqing and Xie Guanhui. In addition, Song Ang's contract is also very problematic. The final result is that his 7 million,
The crew won't get a penny back!
Fortunately, in the entire big contract, the aspect of "investment and shareholding" was originally finalized by Tao Tang and Song Ang Studio. The investment funds are insufficient. In this aspect, as long as the major shareholders vote, additional investment can be made.
And it is added according to the shareholding——
In the end, it took Tao Tang three days to get the job done, and he finally invested an additional 20 million, of which Song Ang Studio was responsible for half, which can be regarded as the 7 million he had eaten away.
Big mouth back!
But compared to Xia Yu, he still made money in the end!
As soon as the money is in place, Xiao Xie guides Cheng Zhiqing.
Remunerations ranging from 1.5 million to 2 million were paid immediately.
Because he was in a hurry, and Song Ang had already negotiated a price with the hotel, signed a four-month contract, and paid all the money, the hotel would definitely not be able to cancel the lease at the negotiated price; as for the basement rental, Song Ang, of course
You have given over the contract. What to do with the order? The landlord is not happy and will directly breach the contract. I will not rent to you. If you want to sue, just sue me and I will compensate you!
Song Ang shrugged, with a look of embarrassment on his face, "This has nothing to do with me, and I have nothing to do. You can only find a way for yourself!"
Tao Tang led people to find new shooting locations, contact the new extras union, and provide various props——
The crew is led by Dai Chengbi, and they are seizing every moment to start a new reading!
Different from the dozens or hundreds of people in Song Ang Studio, the small team of Great Wall Film and Television has more than 20 people, plus the starring team and director team, there are less than 40 people together, and the original conference room suddenly became spacious.
Much more.
Although Dai Chengbi and Xie Guanhui have not collaborated before, they have worked together at least. He is in his early thirties, a few years younger than Dai Chengbi. He worked in Zhuanghe Studio and Great Wall Film and Television. His character has been developed for a long time. He has backbone, but not high-mindedness.
Yu Ding's arrogance——
He knew that he must be the one in charge in the crew, but he still took another chair on the main table, and the two of them took the main seat together. After the half-month reading, this time, the main thing was to re-read
Correct the shooting direction and sort out the script for Xie Guanhui, Cheng Zhiqing and the Great Wall Film and Television team - so Dai Chengbi is still the main one in reading this part!
"Unfortunately, due to some things, the movie was forced to be reshot. Here I would like to apologize to everyone - and then welcome the new crew, welcome director Xie Guanhui and welcome Mr. Cheng Zhiqing to join!"
After a few minutes of portrait introduction, Dai Chengbi took over the scene again:
"Now that everyone knows each other, let's officially start the reading!"
