Cao Xuan and Xiao Taohong were on different planes. Cao Xuan and the others left first. Xiao Taohong waited for more than half an hour before reuniting with Xu Zheng on the plane.
"Who was it just now?"
Xu Zheng now wants to establish a relationship with Xiao Tao Hong soon. During the period of love, he remains highly vigilant about any man who gets close to his girlfriend.
Tao Hong saw his little thoughts and rolled her eyes at him: "Don't worry, it's Cao Xuan."
"The Cao Xuan who sang "Dusk"?"
"Um."
"Then I really can't rest assured."
Xu Zheng couldn't help but complain. Although he was bald, he could still be considered a handsome boy at this time. He was really not afraid of ordinary people, but Cao Xuan's appearance was obviously beyond his psychological safety range.
More importantly, Xiao Tao Hong is half a fan of Cao Xuan. During the Chinese New Year a few days ago, she was praising Cao Xuan on the phone during the Spring Festival Gala for being so handsome.
"Where have you been?"
Tao Hong couldn't help but pinch him: "I like him, but he may not like me yet. He knows a classmate of mine. We met and chatted for a few words."
"Boys and girls?"
Seeing Tao Hong's murderous gaze, Xu Zheng raised his hands in surrender and said with some regret.
"The King of Music, it's a pity that I couldn't chat for a few words, otherwise I could have asked for an autograph. My cousin likes Cao Xuan the most. She would be so happy to have an autograph."
"Then please beg me."
Tao Hong took out a small book from her pocket, which contained several signed photos of Cao Xuan, which she had just requested from Cao Xuan.
In the past two years, as Cao Xuan's fame has grown, he has become a top figure in the music scene. No matter where he goes, people are asking for his autograph.
So Cao Xuan always keeps dozens of photos and signature pens with him, so he can write whatever he needs.
During the previous Spring Festival Gala rehearsals and performances, Cao Xuanguang sent out more than a hundred autographed photos backstage, not counting the signatures on other people's notebooks, clothes, and souvenir books.
Even many seniors came to him specifically. They didn't need it, so it would be a good thing to take it back to coax the juniors.
Some good people have made statistics. In the entire Spring Festival Gala backstage, Cao Xuan and Zhao Wei were the ones asking for autographs the most, and even Li Tianwang ranked behind them.
Tao Hong is half a fan of Cao Xuan, and since she caught the real owner this time, she will not let go of the opportunity and shamelessly asks for several pictures.
Keep two for yourself, and after deducting what is shared by your best friends and relatives and sisters, you can still squeeze out one for Xu Zheng to sell as a favor.
"Good guy, I asked for so much, it's enough for wholesale."
Xu Zheng was startled. He only asked for one or two autographs. Tao Hong asked for a small pile in one breath.
Tao Hong was confident: "Who knows when we will meet next time, if it were you, wouldn't you order more?"
Xu Zheng was convinced, and then he shyly wanted to go home to show off. The couple had a fuss for a while, and then Tao Hong got down to business.
"We really underestimated Zhou Yi. Even Cao Xuan knows about this company, and from what he said, he seems to be interested in cooperating with Zhou Yi."
"Then I'll have to take a closer look at the script of this drama."
Xu Zheng became more serious when he heard this. Although he has become famous now, he is still just popular. Tao Hong is better than him, but she is still a simple actor and has no contact with the behind-the-scenes production level for the time being.
The identity of the boss of Cao Xuan Film and Television is not well-known, but after all, his fame and status are on the line here. Xu Zheng doesn't think that he can get more information than Cao Xuan.
If Zhou Yi can be valued by Cao Xuan, the popular king, and even intend to cooperate, there must be merit.
It may not be right to bet following the boss's choice, but the possibility of making a mistake is certainly lower than making a blind choice on his own.
Xu Zheng, who was shrewd and shrewd like a Modu native, suddenly had his own plan.
………
On the other side, Cao Xuan didn't know that he had unknowingly assisted Zhou Yi. He was considering how to contact Zhou Yi and reach cooperation.
In fact, this matter is not difficult. After all, the entertainment industry is a circle. Although Zhou Yi is mostly from Taiwan Province, he also knows companies in the mainland. Fanxing can easily get on the line by finding a middleman.
The rest is simple. Zhou Yi is short of money, Fanxing is rich, and Cao Xuan is a big killer, so the chance of reaching cooperation is very high.
At least that's how it was in the early days.
After that, Zhouyi, who has the capital, will probably choose to produce independently, and Fanxing will focus more on his own self-produced dramas.
Therefore, even if the two companies reach a cooperation, it will not take long. The key is that Cao Xuan can use this cooperation to get a few books from Zhou Yi.
If possible, Cao Xuan also wants to "invite" several screenwriters to develop Fanxing without offending Zhou Yi.
Zhouyi's Pumpkin Creation Center reminded Cao Xuan that Fanxing could also organize a similar writing team, such as watermelons, bananas, peaches...
In fact, Cao Xuan has attached great importance to screenwriters before, and now he has been in contact with Qian Yanqiu of "Journey to the West" and plans to sign him to Fanxing.
Qian Yanqiu was very moved, but he wanted to write and direct by himself, and was more interested in directing, and would not just be a screenwriter.
Cao Xuan would not stop him. After all, Lao Qian is also a good director. It would be a waste to just be a screenwriter.
But because of this, it is necessary for Fanxing to form an elite team of screenwriters like Zhou Yi did.
To be honest, Cao Xuan has no shortage of ideas in his mind, but how to turn ideas into scripts requires the help of professional screenwriters.
It's okay for Cao Xuan to write an MV outline by himself, but if it's a movie or TV series script with hundreds of thousands or even millions of words, including lines, storyboards, rhythm control, etc., it's not something that a layman like him can handle.
, and he doesn’t have that time either.
Music, filming, performances, business investments, Fanxing company affairs, and two girlfriends.
Cao Xuan is a human being, not a god. He is so busy now that he wants to learn how to be a shadow actor, so he has no time to write scripts.
Therefore, the best model is for him to outline the creative story, and the screenwriter will handle the specific details of the script. Cao Xuan controls the general direction of the creation and monitors the finished product.
Of course, Cao Xuan may be relatively deeply involved in some particularly important projects, but it should not be too much.
In addition to the writers of Zhouyi, Cao Xuan was also thinking about the group of first-generation Internet writers who were scolding Fang Qiu under the banyan tree.
This group of people has produced many well-known screenwriters, Yu Baimei and Ning Caishen are among them. Even if they can't poach two of them, if they poach a few more inferior writers and have many people as directors, the difference won't be much different.
During the flight from Beijing to Guangdong Province, Cao Xuan had been thinking about building a team of screenwriters for Fanxing.
Many people in later generations have said that China does not lack good actors, but it lacks good screenwriters and good directors who can make stories written by good screenwriters.
Therefore, for a film and television production company, it is of great significance to have a team of screenwriters who can stably mass-produce high-quality scripts.
As long as this is done, Cao Xuan won't have to worry about other projects all over the world. Fanxing can completely produce and sell by himself.
After getting off the plane, Cao Xuan started to call Jiang Yue and asked her to try to contact Zhou Yi in the name of the company. It would be best to first obtain part of the investment rights in "Li Wei Becomes an Official".
This drama is written by Liu Heping and casts most of the leading actors from "Yongzheng Dynasty". The Zhou Yi family will definitely not be able to stomach it, and Fanxing has a chance to join the drama.
In addition, I will contact the writers under the banyan tree to see if I can recruit a few with real material and try out a small-cost TV series.
After arranging the two tasks and hanging up the phone, Cao Xuan felt a little financial pressure.
At present, he has not made a penny from "Young Bao Qingtian". The investment in "Journey to the West" requires at least 5 million. There is also the production of a new album, the specifications have been greatly improved, and the minimum cost starts at one million.
The most important thing is to retain enough funds from Penguin, whether it is used as continued financing or bridge loan, now it is Penguin's biggest supporter to survive the Internet winter.
Cao Xuan, who has not received commercial roles or new endorsements for several months, currently only earns dividends from two albums and the salary from "The Swordsman".
If we don't get some blood back, we will almost lose all our money...
Cao Xuan, who was "worried", felt a little better until he saw Hu Jing happily waving to him on the set of "Young Man Bao Qingtian".
When they came to the front, Li Bingbing and Ren Quan rushed up first: "Congratulations to Cao Cao for being honored at the Spring Festival Gala. Come on, let us also be blessed."
"What's the meaning?"
Looking at the two hands stretched out in front of him, Cao Xuan looked confused and wondered what Li Bingbing was saying.
"You're pretending to be stupid, right? It's Chinese New Year, and you, the big boss, can't give us a red envelope."
"Sending you red envelopes? I'm so poor that I'm going to lose my pants. Brother Quan, didn't you say your restaurant was good last time? Why don't you lend me 1.8 million for the turnover?"
"Pooh."
Ren Quan looked contemptuous: "One million and eight hundred thousand, even if my restaurant is sold, it won't be worth that money."
After talking and joking, Cao Xuan also took out the red envelope he had prepared, but it was not for the two adults, but Li and Ren. It was specially given to Shi Xiaolong.
After all, people have been following me and calling me Brother Bao for several months. How can I not give him lucky money during the Chinese New Year?
Hu Jing has also prepared a New Year gift. He will give it to him privately later, and he can also get some small benefits...
