Li Yulan's voice sounded a little nervous on the phone and her voice was a little loud.
"How about it? Just tell me!"
In comparison, Zhao Zhen's voice was quite calm, and he said in a deep voice: "On behalf of Beijing Satellite TV, I would like to say that if Teacher Lao Bai is not the screenwriter of the next season of "Criminal Minds" and "Psychic Detective",
Beijing Satellite TV will reconsider whether to purchase it, or the price will be appropriately lowered... What about you?"
"...We have the same attitude!"
Secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Li Yulan's voice finally sounded more at ease.
...Huh?
Why do I feel a sense of relief?
Blinking her eyes in confusion, Li Yulan didn't have time to think too much, and immediately asked nervously: "Then... what is the attitude of the other party? Are you anxious?"
In her opinion, if the two major financial backers expressed their stance at the same time, it would be impossible for the other party not to be nervous, right?
Especially the opinions of Golden Eagle Video, is it not important?
You must know that since the first season suffered a dull loss, starting from the second season, Golden Eagle Video has taken the actual control of "Criminal Minds" at a huge cost. As for its original author Lao Bai, he has no
When it comes to actual investment, all you have is dividends.
But even these dividends amount to tens of millions every year.
So Li Yulan called Sun Ya and made it clear that if Lao Bai did not continue to write the script, Golden Eagle Video would probably reduce its investment in the drama, which would affect future earnings. She could clearly sense that Sun Ya was a little dissatisfied.
At the same time, there was also some anxious anger...
"I'm very angry and have a very bad attitude."
There was a pause, and Zhao Zhen said with a smile: "You call first, and I will call again. No matter how stupid they are, they know that we have communicated in advance. Can you not be angry?"
"It's okay to be angry, it's okay to be angry!"
While murmuring and repeating it twice, Li Yulan took a deep breath and said: "In that case, the rest depends on Lao Bai's reaction..."
…
"Angry? Why are you angry?"
Without raising his eyes, Sun Peng said casually: "Since I don't plan to continue writing scripts, let alone if they lower the price or anything, what if they give up?"
"Ah? Are you really not planning to write a TV series in the future?"
Hearing what his brother said, Sun Ya was really stunned.
"Well, unless there are special circumstances!"
Heaving a sigh of relief, Sun Peng finally raised his head and said with a smile: "Sister, TV dramas are actually quite profitable and famous, but I really don't have much interest in them, so in the future, apart from novels and music, my main focus will still be on
As for movies... TV series, forget it, let them go!"
Money is something that can never be earned.
In other words, Sun Peng's requirements for money are not very high. The royalties from those novels alone are enough for him to live happily for a lifetime. Therefore, Sun Peng really doesn't want to continue with some troublesome and uninteresting things.
Done.
He rarely watches domestic dramas; it is troublesome to adapt American and Japanese dramas to Chinese versions, so why bother?
And in the final analysis, movies are more influential!
In fact, if it weren't for "Dragon Inn", the drama "Detective Di Renjie" would not have appeared in this world. Sun Peng had long wanted to write twenty or thirty episodes, and he had to rack his brains to think of it.
The script of a TV series with two different worlds is excluded from my plan, and I will never play it again...
"Then...how do I reply to them?"
Sun Ya bit her lip and asked with a frown.
"It's easy, let them do whatever they want!"
Putting his eyes on the table again, Sun Peng said with a smile: "Tell them, even if "Criminal Minds" does not have a fourth season and "Super Sense" does not have a second season, it doesn't matter to me.
Yes! And... shouldn't this be my brother-in-law's business? Let them find him..."
…
"This old white guy is not easy to deal with!"
After taking a sip of boiled water, Ye Tian sighed heavily and said: "As expected, he is indeed the legendary gangster. Even his agent is like this... Haha, I heard that his agent is his cousin.
?”
"Hehe, yes!"
Liang Ren lay down on his sofa and nodded with a smile.
That night when he and Sun Peng met for the first time, they talked a lot, and they didn't mean to be secretive at all. They basically talked about everything they could, including the fact that their agent was his second sister.
After confirming it, Ye Tian quickly shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Tsk, tsk, I heard that he was a lawyer before... he is indeed sharp-tongued and ruthless!"
Ye Tian was also helpless regarding Sun Ya's request.
He is asking for a share of the global box office when he opens his mouth, and he insists on a share of the top screenwriters. How can he talk about it?
Even with the success of "Taken", it would still be impossible!
Liang Ren also shook his head and said lightly: "It doesn't matter if the lion opens his mouth. The name Lao Bai itself is the most valuable right now, and I have the confidence to do so! As long as the quality of the script is good enough, I think there will be people willing to invest the money, right?"
?”
Liang Ren was equally confident about what he said.
As the top movie star in China, and one of the few who are also famous internationally, Liang Ren is the box office, and Liang Ren is the profit! This will not fundamentally change because of the failure of a movie.
, the only thing he needs to worry about is if he really wants to transform and leave the costume blockbuster...
Will those profit-seeking film companies still spend so much money?
"No, no, it's not that simple!"
Shaking his head with a wry smile, Ye Tian explained: "The key is that your film investment has never been small, and your own salary is high, and you have to take a high share of the box office. Where is there room for Lao Bai's share? You really
Are other film companies philanthropists?"
"this……"
Hearing what the agent said, Liang Ren's brows immediately wrinkled.
"And what you say now is actually useless!"
After taking a deep breath, Ye Tian continued: "After all, we haven't even seen the script, and we don't even know what genre we want to be in. They just put forward their own conditions, and we can only continue talking if we agree...
Don’t you think it’s funny?”
After a moment of silence, Liang Ren frowned and asked, "Then they are so confident that we will be satisfied with the script they write?"
"Well..."
A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and Ye Tiandao said: "Lao Bai's agent said that we should discuss the conditions first before writing the script. If we are not satisfied with the script, we can cancel the cooperation at any time, and neither party will bear any responsibility... To be honest, I am still the first
This is the first time I’ve seen such a confident person!”
"If you are not satisfied, can you return it without any responsibility?"
After hearing what Ye Tian said, Liang Ren was also stunned.
