Dalang Mao and Lao Li discussed how to deal with it, and President Zhang finally worked out a plan to deal with it. The next step was for both parties to meet together.
This is a process where both parties test each other. It doesn’t matter who wins and who loses. What matters is the distribution of interests. In the words of Xiaogangpao, as long as there are enough interests, then it is right for the capitalists to pay
The easiest thing.
The key is to see if you have a bargaining chip. Obviously, President Zhang does have a bargaining chip, and it is a very attractive bargaining chip. At this moment, President Zhang saw Big Laowang and the five of them, like
Seeing that kind smile like a family member made Big Lao Wang feel a little unsure in his heart.
Although President Zhang has always been very kind, he is basically responsible for contacting his superiors and subordinates. He is an all-round person who cannot offend anyone. Of course, Big Lao Wang will never think that President Zhang is good in any sense.
A good old man.
Big Laowang and the others are relatively clear about President Zhang’s methods. They are generally easy to talk to, but anyone who dares to offend him may be directly banned.
The Smiling Tiger is talking about people like President Zhang. He talks about people and ghosts. He is well-rounded and has a wide range of friends. This is one of President Zhang's characteristics.
But seeing Chairman Zhang's smile at this time, Big Lao Wang and the others still murmured in their hearts that they had cooperated with Chairman Zhang not once or twice, and that President Zhang had asked them to pay money not once or twice.
Spending money is not investment, it is not just for fame. Businessmen basically do it for two reasons. One is not for profit, which is not a basic business behavior that can be seen by a small family. There are also a very small number of businessmen who even say that they set up stalls.
The goal that a big businessman pursues throughout his life is not for commercial interests or making money.
But if a person has no money to a certain extent, then what I pursue is just business interests without fame. If so, why are so few people with no money really rushing to become representatives and committee members?
In fact, given that situation, of course what you were pursuing was not your fame before you ran out of money. Winning fame in life and in life is a waste of time.
Because only real small films can play a promotional role and attract fewer people to watch movies in theaters. If so, if he invests millions to make a movie, some people will watch it and some people will be disgusted. Then
It's no longer embarrassing.
But Dagangpao and Ye Ming definitely don’t have the guts to do that. You must know that Director Chen’s status in the entertainment industry is low and one of the domestic small directors. His status is extremely high. There are very few people who dare to criticize me in the entire entertainment industry.
Very rare.
The leader decided to make a decision. We were going to make a small film that time, so we changed the script. That was one of the key reasons why Director Chen and the eight of us were called in. Why did we call them here?
So the rest are dealing with their own issues. They can't discuss it properly and see if they have any opinions on that issue. Those who can do it should work less. Their film and television companies are the first team above the eight small film and television companies.
The presence.
But at this moment, Chairman Zhang laughed and said: "The bosses are also busy people. It's true that there is really nothing to do today, so I called the bosses here.
After all, an investment of tens of millions is a huge sum."
Whether you are born famous or not, it is the pursuit of few people who have no money, especially when they have no money to a certain extent. This is not the pursuit of fame.
So, as for the actors' remuneration, you guys also had a little discussion and gave a rough figure. Anyway, it would cost tens of millions to record. Just for a king, my own remuneration would have to be in the tens of millions. To be specific, I would have to use tens of millions.
How far it will go will have to be discussed.
There is such a small probability that it should be an art film. Since it is an art film, how much money can be spent to make a small film? Are there any special effects?
Especially Dagang Pao and Fang Jia, those two people are notoriously bad-tempered in the entertainment industry. Although they had not restrained themselves before meeting the leader, they would quarrel with their peers and even let Director Chen touch them.
A soft nail, that's the kind of person who does special things.
It's not a battle between the two, it just depends on who can convince whom. Of course, President Zhang could easily give in like this.
But if you ask the King of Heaven to come over and make a movie, he will definitely agree to it.
You have to hear what the script is, what actors will be invited, and at least you have to pay attention. If so, how will you invest?
Lao Li really came here to invest. After hearing those words, he said curiously: "If Zhang is investing, it will take a process. How is your movie? What is the essence of it? The Eye of Love."
What is the fate? You all know that, if you need to invest in transportation, are you slowing down?
Anyway, as far as the movies are concerned, investing a few million to 20 million is enough to make a special art film.
So in that case, you guys discussed it and made a small film, a real small film."
Nothing Xiao Lao Wang said is correct. If you are making an art film and there are no computer special effects or anything like that, then the price will of course be relatively cheap.
There was nothing pleasant happening between those few people, and the atmosphere seemed to be relatively friendly. That kind of situation made people feel a little weird.
You asked him to complete a task, and as a result, he fooled you and made a movie for you. Instead of that, why did you give Lao Chen, Da Feng, Ye Ming and the rest of us to you?
Pull it down.
The more experienced Xiao Lao Wang glanced at Lao Yu and Lao Li, and the eight people exchanged glances with each other. They all felt that something was not right about the situation. However, when the atmosphere calmed down, Party A turned out to be relatively kind.
.
After all, those tens of millions are also a big number. Director Chen is indeed powerful and has a wide range of contacts. He said that if he brings in 50 million, he can bring in 50 million. You have no doubt about that, but the remaining amount is up to 5,000.
What should you do?
It’s not that Director Chen is responsible for 50 million, and the remaining 50 million is what you people need to discuss. Their bosses are all the bosses of relatively powerful film companies in the entertainment industry, and are used by Ba Xiao Film and Television Company.
As I said, there is no capital, so you are considering us.
Could it be that the amount of money requested that time was smaller? If so, it explains why President Zhang was so polite.
Little Lao Wang thought about it for a while and then said: "President Zhang, you don't have any problem. We are going to make a movie about opera. Obviously, it would be more difficult to commercialize that kind of movie.
It's not possible at all. At this moment, Chairman Zhang was firm and said, "Don't worry. What you just agreed on was just a big goal one by one. Director Chen hasn't said it yet. It doesn't matter to us. We will be responsible for half of the investment."
The problem is small.
The leader has not said it yet, if he wants to support him, the worst thing he can do is make the little family look very shocked, advertise the opera, and make the little guy pay less attention to absorbing this traditional art.
Think about it, do they think there is no possibility of taking a step back? Now is not such an opportunity, but they have to seize it. Although it will definitely take them to the next level, for them, a little or a lot is also an accumulation.
of."
If there is no king in Hong Kong City, it would be very unusual for you to find a pre-movie-level male star as the leading actor in the mainland. The cast is very weak. Since you have decided to make a small film, what if
It is possible to invite people who are unknown and well-known.
You have to know who attended that meeting, whether you were Director Chen, Big Gang Pao or Ye Ning, we are all the stuff of the Holy Mother, we are all bad-tempered people.
There will be no news about that later, so you just revealed it to the little guy so that the little family will not be mentally prepared.
But now the leader has said that this matter must be taken up, even if it is a temporary project, he wants you to get it done first and provide a rough plan, and then it will be discussed and approved later.
So instead of saying that the leader said what his conditions were like, which seemed a bit less passive, it was more straightforward to give it a try first and shoot a few videos to test the waters.
But on your side, you first have to decide whether to make such a movie, how to shoot it, and what kind of scale is more appropriate.
The worst thing is to discuss it first and then come up with a solution to the problem.
Just let us make one film and be done with it. If any one of our eight directors wants to make a similar big movie, this is a problem that can be easily solved.
Therefore, the investment in that movie should be very eye-catching. The investment difference is less than 100 million. In that case, the publicity will attract the attention of young people.
The worst thing is the cast, and the content of the book is not yet available. At most, you have to read it.
Therefore, interests are the most important interests for businessmen. In that regard, one is material interests, and the other is spiritual interests. If neither of the two can meet the conditions, then as a result, if businessmen will work hard towards
To retreat with the goal in mind.
It’s just that the leader hasn’t said it yet and asks you to give it your full support and absorb that aspect of art. In that case, if he invests millions or millions, he can indeed make an art film.
, but has he ever thought about what the leader would think?
In fact, the purpose is very clear. You were going to make a small film that time, but I was quite supportive of it, and specially allocated 2 million to the crew, which was regarded as the start-up capital for the crew.
So there is not much money to burn. Basically, art films need to be supported by a small film. So you think the leaders should consider the scale a little bit. If we make a special film first, try it first.
Test the waters.”
The following only gave 2 million, and the rest was Lao Duo. From what Lao Yu said, it was obvious that this was a plan that would be promoted to the public, but why did President Zhang let Lao Yu be promoted?
But Xiao Lao Wang was shocked and could not be described as more than surprised.
Xiao Yu followed and said: "Here you find someone with the level of a king to star in that movie. From the mainland, you find someone with the level of a god to star in the movie. That is indeed a very attractive combination."
But I’m very shocked. It’s such a big goal. To make an art film with such little money is simply a waste of money. So who came up with the idea?”
The leader asked you to help opera make a movie about opera, not to promote it. Therefore, if you invest more, it will achieve the goal, which is contrary to your original intention.
At this moment, President Zhang's attitude was very friendly, just like meeting relatives, which really made Mr. Wang feel less anxious.
But looking at the atmosphere at the scene now, it seems that there is nothing stiff about it, and it was performed suddenly.
Xiaojia, sit together and discuss with each other. The matter is not like this. A few days ago, when you and Xiaojia had a meeting together, you also revealed similar things. It is not that you want to support opera below.
Decided to make a movie about opera.
But your investment is indeed relatively small. Except for the male and female protagonists, the number of other actors is actually very small, and it is 100 million. How do you invest in this?
The money given below is not 2 million, nor is it the remaining money. You must raise it to achieve such a result."
But just now you and Director Chen, eight of us, discussed it together. If you want to make a movie like that into a small film, it would be more appropriate to ask the king from Hong Kong City to star in it.
What's going on with President Zhang?
So at that time, you just met with Director Chen and a few of us, and we discussed it together. What do you think is more appropriate to make a small film?
But being very small and large does not mean that Ye Ming and Big Gun Pao are absolutely incompetent and have no courage to deal with Director Chen, and of course the leader, those eight people are not lacking in mind.
If you dare to confront the leader to that point, but the atmosphere is very tense by trying to undermine each other, that kind of thing is definitely a rare thing.
It's okay for you guys to invest, but at least he has to let you see the book and make you feel that the book is not good, so that you can invest. If so, your eyes will go blank, how will he let you invest?
?Who is the actor invited?
In fact, Xiao Laowang is very vague in his heart. If he really wants to make an art film into a small film, it is possible. It costs money anyway. Who can do it?
The little family villains seem to understand each other very well, which makes the little old naughty boy feel that the atmosphere is indeed not so weird.
At this moment, Chairman Zhang directly said that investing in a large-budget movie is not a very realistic issue at all, and he said that you can do it.
But if we really want to make an artistic short film, if we have to spend a lot of money, we will have to spend less money to make a small film. That is what Xiao Laowang hopes to see.
