Director’s Legend

The time of huddling flies quickly. Nortel’s director department has more of him, but it has not changed at all. It is just a news item on the school’s official website.

"A new director born in 1985, entered the director department of our school to study."

Then it was reprinted by major media. Everyone knows that the director who filmed "Crazy Stone" went to school. That's all, there is no noise to Shao Shuaijun, because he is worrying about how to establish a studio. The studio’s first film has been in preparation. Ning Hao received the first two million start-up money and started looking for actors and venues.

Zhao Cheng is negotiating on Huayi's shares. Wang Zhonglei has also met Shao Shuaijun twice. For Shao Shuaijun's willingness to invest in shares, Wang Zhonglei and Wang Zhongjun are very supportive. Shao Shuaijun has the potential and can be tied together through shares, which is good for both parties. Now it is waiting for the agreement of TOM Group.

Is it to spend 30 million more to get 35% of the shares, or to spend only 10 million US dollars to take up 30% of the shares.

30 million is not much, only 4 million US dollars.

But spending an extra $4 million is only 5% of the shares, so you have to think carefully.

Shao Shuaijun was very upset about the delay of TOM Group. TOM Group only spent 10 million U.S. dollars, which can account for 30%, and it is too sloppy. If it weren't for the TOM Group's traversing of various fields, which can help Huayi stabilize the capital market, don't even think about this price. Shao Shuaijun would have to take up more shares if he sold himself.

"This TOM Group is really fucking. If you want to buy it, buy it quickly. I'm so cut off and go to buy Apple stock. The most profitable listed companies now are the price of Apple. There is a lot of room for appreciation. One more day , How much less do I earn!"

No wonder Shao Shuaijun is angry. He knows the stocks that will rise in future generations, namely Internet or high-tech companies like Penguin and Apple. Penguin has been listed, and the stock has been copied to an incredible price in just a few days, and now there is nothing to make of it. Since the three-year stock market crash, Apple has begun to recover. Now is a good time to get started.

However, there is also good news. The invitation letter sent to Red Xingwu has received a reply letter from Red Xingwu that Liu Xiaoli wants to meet Shao Shuaijun. Discuss the related performance of the movie in person. Liu Xiaoli is Liu Yifei's mother, and Red Starwood is a brokerage company founded specifically for Liu Yifei's acting career.

At the Starbucks coffee shop, Shao Shuaijun met Liu Xiaoli. Although she is already in her old age, Liu Xiaoli is still very charming. It is said that she was more beautiful than Liu Yifei when she was young.

"Hello Director Shao, what to drink, latte or cappuccino?" Liu Xiaoli asked actively, looking like a strong woman.

"Hello, Ms. Liu, I don't like coffee, just boiled water, let's talk about business first."

"Alright, I read the invitation letter and script outline sent by your studio. This is a very novel science fiction movie with a very interesting story. I want to know, why did you choose us to play the heroine? Now I am a contracted director of Huayi, why not look for actors from Huayi?"

"To be honest, there is a long list of my choice of heroines. Liu Yifei is one of them. There are three reasons why I chose her last. First, I also like acting very much. I will star in this movie myself. I hope to have a female celebrity with a similar age. Second, the selling point of science fiction movies is the two words sci-fi, love as an embellishment, it does not account for a large proportion, but it can adjust the whole plot well. I have imagined a lot before This kind of love, in the end, I feel that the pure love of young people is more attractive. After all, everyone has been young. Third, this is more far-fetched. Liu Yifei is an American nationality, and the old and the United States are somewhat less affinity. In summary, I chose Liu Yifei, Liu Does the lady have any doubts?"

"I understand. I also believe in Director Shao's vision and ability. We are not honored to be able to play in this movie. I am basically satisfied with the content of the shooting contract, but there are a few items that need to be discussed."

"Please say."

"The first is that there are kiss scenes in the movie. I hope that the contract will be specified and the performance will be performed on loan. This is not the usual way of making kiss scenes."

"No accommodation?" The first one made Shao Shuaijun frown, he was not a disciple, and he did not deliberately take advantage of Liu Yifei. The key is that the plot in the movie is a bit monotonous, and it needs love to embellish it. Can kisses on loan be regarded as love? "Ms. Liu, this movie of mine has ambitions for overseas markets, especially the US market. The filming on loan may not please Americans."

"If you don't say it, who can tell?"

"Okay, this one can be agreed." Shao Shuaijun thought about it, borrowing the filming to cover up well, it is indeed invisible.

"Second, every Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon, there is no private vocal lesson to learn. I hope Director Shao, you can think about it when filming, and don't shoot anything that is not during this period."

"can."

"Third, the salary of 500,000 yuan is too low. As we are not our current reputation, Shao Dao thinks it is really only worth this?"

Shao Shuaijun shook his head: "I know that Liu Yifei is worth a million dollars now. But I'm sorry, half a million is the maximum limit I can come up with. Don't be afraid to tell Ms. Liu that the investment in the movie has not been discussed yet. Close. You know, my idea for a movie is to invest 50 million in cost, and it may even involve hundreds of millions in cost. It is also a science fiction film, which is too risky. My studio is unable to produce it for some reasons. With money to invest, it is impossible for Huayi to invest in full. I can only increase investment while reducing filming costs and actor compensation."

"But 500,000 looks like an irony to the worth."

"You can't say that. This is a science fiction film, an authentic science fiction film. It will be an epoch-making one in the history of Chinese film. You have seen the content of the story. It has the basis for big sales. I think Liu Yifei can participate. Acting in a movie will improve her personal reputation and it will be unparalleled. Ms. Liu, I will not speak lie, 500,000, I can't spend more. If you don't agree, I can only say regret."

Shao Shuaijun opened his hands and made clear his attitude. He has his own difficulties. The investment in movies is said to be hundreds of millions, which is an exaggeration, but it should not be less than 50 million. Sci-fi movies only burn money in special effects and can occupy 80% of the investment. He certainly couldn't get so much investment. Huayi was distracted from financing TOM Group. Even if the financing was completed, he did not dare to invest so much at once.

He has only made two movies at present, both of which are small costs. The first blockbuster directed by him is still science fiction, a subject that has almost disappeared in China.

Investment is hard to find!

We can only reduce costs and try to win investors.

Liu Xiaoli picked up the coffee and drank several sips. Then she nodded slowly: "I trust Director Shao, and hope that Director Shao can make this movie with his heart. It is not a young age. As a mother, I don't want a bad movie to ruin her Future."

"Don't worry, I won't make jokes about my future either."

"Then, happy cooperation, on behalf of Liu Yifei, I agreed to play the heroine of the movie "Source Code"."
