"Mr. Li, he is Wang Baoqiang, an artist of our company, and also the hero of our company''s next military inspirational TV series. Bao Qiang, say hello to all teachers." Mai Xiaoyu officially introduced Wang Baoqiang.
"Hello, teachers."
"Yes."
"OK."
It was disappointing to learn that Wang Baoqiang was an artist of Mengren, not a Zheng, the screenwriter of sword.
For Wang Baoqiang''s greetings, the people also responded mediocrely, simply replied, and didn''t look at him more.
There''s no way. Wang Baoqiang looks plain and dresses rustic. Compared with other artists under Mengren, there is a big gap in all aspects.
At the moment, he stood timidly beside Mai Xiaoyu and said hello in a weak tone. Anyone can hear his lack of confidence.
People are not confident, who believes it?
If you are seriously lack of confidence, how can you be valued by others? In the eyes of others, you are not an insignificant person?
When they were seated, Mai Xiaoyu called the waiter to order.
The cold dishes were quickly served. Everyone didn''t hurry to use chopsticks. President Luo said skillfully, "wheat, call ah Zheng and sit down together."
"The goods have autism and never want to go out to see people."
President Han said with a smile, "I just want to see you, don''t I?"
"I also called the door. Every time in order to see him, I had to kick the door and beat him up before he agreed to write a script for me."
Coax ghosts!
Luo always sighed: "wheat, in your Yanjing words, you are a typical chicken thief. It''s just a meal. Are you worried that we will turn him away?"
"Lao Luo, what you said is too hurtful. Am I that kind of person? I''m mainly worried that seeing him will scare you, especially a beautiful woman like Xiaoxue. If I''m frightened, I''m a sinner."
Xue Xiaoning smiled: "Mr. Mai couldn''t help it. If I were as beautiful as you said, why didn''t you cooperate with me?"
"Ha ha, I''m not worried that Mr. Han mistakenly thinks I have your idea..."
During the joke, dishes were served one after another.
EVA filled the crowd with wine. Mai Xiaoyu picked up his glass and said, "I''m a layman. This first glass of wine will celebrate the harvest of sword."
Tonight''s private party is invited by Mai Xiaoyu, which is a kind of celebration banquet of "shining sword".
In the eyes of outsiders, the play "bright sword" is popular.
But behind this boom is the beautiful income of investors that ordinary people can''t see. President Luo, President Han and middle-aged Senior Colonel Li Yang respectively represent the other three investors of bright sword.
This TV play was written by a cute person. President Luo was responsible for organizing and contacting president Han. President Han found Li Yang in the army through family relations.
Li Yang is a soldier and a senior colonel, but he does not lead the army. He is the director of the production business of military film and television dramas. The domestic film and television industry calls him the "CEO" of military TV dramas.
Earlier, when president Luo introduced Li Yang to Mai Xiaoyu, he said: This is a very courageous person.
When Li Yang first took over in charge of military TV dramas, military dramas could only be invested by CCTV, purchased by CCTV and broadcast by CCTV with the identity of the main melody. He was joked that "you can''t live without CCTV".
As a result, in an interview, he couldn''t help saying, "we don''t have to hang from a tree on CCTV."
Soon after the news spread, a friend of CCTV called and asked him, "don''t you want to play with CCTV?"
He was noncommittal, but he had another idea in his heart and put it into action.
Through the unremitting efforts of secretly distributing and personally focusing, and with the help of changes in the domestic environment, he fully combined military resources with private capital, and finally achieved success.
In the past two years, military TV dramas with the same status as agriculture and children''s themes have become more and more popular, which is inseparable from the powerful planning and control behind them. Li Yang is one of the most influential traders and practitioners.
Take "bright sword" as an example.
After getting the script, he spent three nights making a decision and shooting!
Mengren, president Luo and President Han contributed funds; The troops provide human and material resources, almost zero cost operation, joint investment by the four parties, and Li Yang is fully responsible for the production.
After shooting, it was also sold to CCTV under his operation, and the conditions of "lenient review and thick payment" were issued.
Finally, CCTV won the premiere of "bright sword" at the price of 650000 yuan per episode.
As for the broadcasting rights of the second and third rounds... Mai Xiaoyu stepped in and kept in touch with Li Yang by telephone. They "collaborated" and sold the broadcasting rights of the third round at a high price of more than 20 thousand episodes.
In the thirty episode "bright sword", the four investors have made a lot of money. In addition to ah Zheng''s good book, the meritorious heroes are inseparable from Li Yang''s operation.
Now Mai Xiaoyu plans to shoot soldier assault. Of course, he won''t Miss Li Yang''s excellent network resources!
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes, president Luo put down his glass and asked, "OK, wheat and dry goods directly. What project is your company going to do?"
"When I first met, I didn''t say that our company plans to make a TV play with the theme of military inspirational."
The book of the first ten episodes of soldiers'' assault was on the table, but no one took over. His eyes were all focused on Li Yang.
Known as the "CEO" of military TV dramas, he has the most say in military TV dramas.
Li Yang was not polite either. He wiped his hands and took over the script.
First look at the outline and outline, then the biography of the characters, and finally start reading the content of the script.
During this period, several other people were not idle and talked about Hualong film and television.
Shi Hao has resigned from Tiandi film and television, took 2.5% of Mai Xiaoyu''s dry shares and went to the United States to take care of Hualong film and television.
When he was young, he studied in the United States, was familiar with local cultural customs, had rich experience in the film and television industry, and was proficient in investment operation. Under his care, Hualong film and television gradually went on the right track.
At present, it is in contact with a theater in the United States to prepare for the release of domestic films in the United States in the future.
This is a big project. It needs money, time and patience. I can''t remember. The money obtained by eight people at the beginning of the year is enough to support the operation of the company.
While chatting, president Luo took the initiative to change the topic and talked about Xue Xiaoning.
"Wheat, if you have a good book next time, don''t forget Xiaoxue. Thanks to Mr. Han''s help, you were happy last year."
President Luo said that he went to the Spring Festival Gala last year. In order to reduce the pressure of comfort and avoid final disappointment, Mai Xiaoyu traded with president Luo with the sword. President Luo is just a broker. Find president Han, which ensures that the comfortable program will not be won and finally appear on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala.
Yes, this is Mai Xiaoyu''s deal with the sword. In fact, he doesn''t owe president Han anything. However, Comrade Luo also said this in order to narrow the relationship between them.
Filming is not a problem for Mai Xiaoyu at all. Now he has taken out a book and is letting Li Yang watch it?
Mai Xiaoyu replied with a smile: "no problem. Our company is currently preparing for" Balala little devil Fairy ". If Xiaoxue is interested, I''ll say hello to the crew."
Balala... Little devil?
President Han: "
Xue Xiaoning: "
President Luo hesitated and asked, "what subject matter?"
"Children''s science fiction plays are also a little magical."
It''s magic color. It''s also a children''s play!
Children''s play... Ha ha.
The audience of children''s film and television dramas is too fixed and lacks influence, so they don''t have a high position in the film and television drama market.
Which children''s play will be popular with everyone?
Which star became popular by making children''s dramas?
EVA has suffered several losses in Mai Xiaoyu''s hand. Now she sees his eyes a little hot and says sarcastically, "Mr. Mai, if you want to refuse, just say it. This reason is too insincere."
"Oh, you look down on the works of our company. Why don''t we make a bet? If the" Balala little devil Fairy "is popular, you accompany me for ten days and let me try all the tricks?"
"What if you lose?"
"I lost... I''ll accompany you for ten days and let you try all the tricks. The old man spit on a nail, okay?"
"Bah, dirty embryo!"
"Ha ha ha!"
Several people were amused by Mai Xiaoyu''s meat words and EVA''s anger. After laughing, the previous little unhappiness was exposed.
President Luo Dala said, "I''m in charge. The book in Mr. Li''s hand will leave a good role for Xiaoxue in the future, OK, wheat."
Before Mai Xiaoyu spoke, Li Yang, who had been reading the script, said, "Luo, I''m afraid not."
"Why?"
"Because there are no female characters in this book."
Li Yang didn''t finish reading the script of the first ten episodes, but he had read the outline, outline and biography, which didn''t mention a female role. Not to mention the heroine, not even the supporting actress.
"True or false?"
President Luo took over the script and looked through it. Xue Xiaoning was an expert. He picked up the outline and biography. As Li Yang said, there were no female roles.
Li Yang stopped reading the script at this time. He looked at Wang Baoqiang and asked Mai Xiaoyu, "is your company going to hold him?"
Mai Xiaoyu put his arm around Wang Baoqiang''s shoulder: "our company never looks out of sight."
That''s true.
What makes the industry amazing is not only the strong star making ability, but also the accurate eye to see people. In addition to Huo Jianhua, all the artists under his banner were signed by "one blood".
Moreover, it basically belongs to signing one red one. At present, only Wang Baoqiang is an exception, which has become the only "defect" of Mengren film and television.
Now it seems that Mai Xiaoyu is going to hold Wang Baoqiang.
But can you hold it red?
Li Yang smiled, looked at Wang Baoqiang for a moment and asked, "how tall are you?"
"One meter seven." Wang Baoqiang replied without thinking.
"Nonsense, I''m only one meter seven."
When the lie was exposed, Wang Baoqiang scratched his head and laughed, revealing his iconic white teeth.
Li Yang smiled, nodded and gave Mai Xiaoyu a thumbs up: "good eye."
"How about Mr. Li? Are you interested in cooperation?"
The cooperation mode of soldier assault is basically the same as that of sword.
Li Yang has resources, the manpower and material resources of the army are in place, and the copyright can be operated on CCTV in the future, but the army can''t afford the problem of funds. This is the zero cost operation mode of the army he advocated.
As long as the budget funds are in place, the filming work is planned and supervised by Li Yang. Including finding a director, finalizing actors and pulling up the crew, there is no need for Mai Xiaoyu to worry and spend energy.
Mai Xiaoyu likes this way of cooperation. He also recognized Li Yang when he cooperated with bright sword.
However, there is a difference between "shining sword" and "soldier assault".
There are no cute artists in "bright sword", and the protagonist of "soldier assault" is Wang Baoqiang, which must also be Wang Baoqiang.
This is a necessary prerequisite for bilateral cooperation.
"I''m interested, but I''ll read the whole script first, and then we''ll talk about the specific details of the cooperation."
Seeing the two people''s few words, Luo was surprised and said, "you''re crazy."
He knows a little about film and television plays.
After reading the script outline and biography, he turned to a few pages of the script. He roughly judged that the play lacked audience elements and did not have market selling points at all. It''s much worse than the sword.
President Han frowned and asked professionals for their opinions: "Lao Li, how much profit space do you think this play has?"
Li Yang shook his head: "it''s hard to say. I''m not sure I''ll lose."
"Are you going to take it?"
Yes, the male star is Wang Baoqiang. If you want to be famous but not famous, if you want to have no image, if you want to have audience appeal, if you don''t have audience appeal, there is no actress at all... There is no beauty, no love and no star. What''s the highlight of this play?
The protagonist "Li Yunlong" in "bright sword" still has two or three love paragraphs!
Mai Xiaoyu wants to shoot. It can be understood that he wants to hold his artists, but what about Li Yang?
What do you want?
"You haven''t been a soldier, you don''t understand." Li Yang sighed. "I once took a temporary post in the military region for a year as a political commissar of the regiment. All kinds of experiences in that year have been in my mind. My motivation to take this play is very simple, just to be able to live up to a certain heat in the hearts of us."
Speaking of this, he said, "anyway, we don''t have to invest money. No one can lose us, right, Mr. Mai?"
"We haven''t lost our cute film and television drama. How about Lao Luo and President Han? Do you want to play together?"
"Hehe, I won''t go crazy with you."
Yes, in the eyes of Mr. Luo and Mr. Han, Mai Xiaoyu is "Crazy" because of inflation.
Some time ago, one was meteor garden and the other was bright sword, which made the film and television very popular. Even if the entertainment industry is big and cheap, it also feels the pressure.
But after these two dramas, look at the two dramas that cute people are going to mount. What are they!
"Balala little devil Fairy", children''s play.
"Soldier assault", a TV series without viewing elements and commercial selling points, male No. 1 is still an unknown Wang Baoqiang.
But Mai Xiaoyu is full of confidence in these two plays. No one will persuade him to take them. What is expansion?
In the next few days, Li Yang finished reading all the scripts and promised Mai Xiaoyu to cooperate. The two sides imitated the production mode of "bright sword" and made joint shooting.
Mengren film and television invested 10 million for shooting, the protagonist Wang Baoqiang.
After the news came out, there was an uproar in the industry.
If Wang Baoqiang were not a man or a small fresh meat, someone would maliciously speculate that there was a py transaction.
Insiders and Han Luo have the same view. Meng people are dazzled by continuous success and expand blindly. They are afraid of going downhill.
However, there is harmony among Meng people. Everyone is used to the consistent correctness of Mai Xiaoyu. No one raises any objection, only Wang Baoqiang and Alexander.
"This play is not difficult for you. Just act yourself well. Don''t forget, you still owe me 200000!"
Mai Xiaoyu''s encouragement is always so wonderful.
After several days of negotiation and finalization of the contract, Wang Baoqiang left with Li Yang and went to the army to experience life first.
When the story of soldiers'' assault and Wang Baoqiang comes to an end, Mai Xiaoyu plans to transfer his energy to bullfight.
The film bullfight is scheduled to be released nationwide in early November. It has been operated by Xiao Xing and Zhang Xiaoquan.
At this time, sun Yaxing''s call disrupted Mai Xiaoyu''s plan.
"Mr. Mai, I met a girl in Yanjing dance college. She has good image and temperament. She is very suitable to play the queen of magic fairy in little magic fairy..."
PS: no responsibility to push the book, a new book by an old author, the country in the sky: there is a heaven standing ten thousand meters above, not a fairyland, called the country of clouds.
