My idol is myself

Chapter 173 I can do it if I go 【Ask for a monthly ticket】

"That was my idea to Mr. Wang, let Xingxun Films be in charge of the preparation, but they seem to have canceled this proposal."

"I came to you this time for the purpose of giving you the script. I promised you to write a script before, but recently I have time to prepare it. I just wrote it now. I'll send it to you for a look."

Xu Wenruo briefly talked about the previous activities. Mr. Liu is also a smart person, and he immediately understood the meaning of Xu Wenruo's words. When he heard Xu Wenruo said that the script had been written, Mr. Liu's breathing suddenly became short of breath After a while, I don't want to meddle in other people's business anymore.

"Okay, okay, can you send it over? Let me read the script."

Mr. Liu forced down his excitement, but he still couldn't help but want to read the script. Because of the deep cooperation foundation between the two parties, Xu Wenruo did not doubt him and directly passed the entire script over.

The file was sent to Mr. Liu. He took a look at the title of the play, "Old Nine Gates". It represents several big families, so when he saw the title of the play, Mr. Liu knew it in his heart.

This must be a theme related to tomb robbery. If you take advantage of the end of next year's "Tomb Raiders Notes" and hype it a little bit, this will definitely be another popular web drama, which can take over the class of "Tomb Raiders Notes" and become another drama that will carry A web drama made by Ding Zhi.

After looking at the content carefully, I found that this is not what happened after the Iron Triangle of Tomb Raiders, but similar to the prequel, which tells the story of the nine big families in Linxiang 100 years ago. After seeing the appearance of Zhang Dafoye and Er Yuehong , Mr. Liu let go of his heart.

From his point of view, this is indeed a good script. If it is produced, it will definitely be able to take over the class of "Tomb Raiders". More importantly, with this experience, their crew has been trained and they will be able to be more self-controlled in the future. Online dramas have also alleviated the pressure of drama shortage to a certain extent.

So Mr. Liu looked away from the script, and then called Xu Wenruo again. Since he was satisfied with the quality of the script, he could negotiate the price next.

Xu Wenruo had not even had a cup of tea when he waited for Mr. Liu's call back. Xu Wenruo was not anxious at all. He knew that Xingxun Video would definitely give a good offer. Sometimes the friendship between the two parties is more valuable than a cooperation. Especially for Xu Wenruo's Xingxun video.

"I just read the script of "The Old Nine Gates". It's very good and I'm very satisfied. It's an excellent script. As expected of Director Xu, it's really extraordinary."

"Thank you, I hope you are satisfied, but I'm afraid I don't have the time and energy to pay attention to the follow-up filming, so I can only leave all the crew to you."

Xu Wenruo made three chapters with Mr. Liu first. He really didn't have time to film a web drama, so he had to make it clear to Mr. Liu in advance that this was a pure script transaction and did not involve follow-up filming tasks at all.

Hearing Xu Wenruo's words, Mr. Liu's face fell into a wry smile. He actually hoped that Xu Wenruo would let Xu Wenruo come to the crew to guide the work when he had time. He would feel more at ease if Xu Wenruo participated in the filming, but he didn't expect Xu Wenruo to refuse immediately.

This made it difficult for him to invite Xu Wenruo to serve as a producer. However, Mr. Liu was not an ordinary person. After working in shopping malls for many years, he quickly came up with a way. There is no one in the entertainment industry who cannot be invited, only if you don't want to. The benefits paid, obviously, friendship is friendship, business is business, don't ask Xu Wenruo to take action first, it is not a simple matter.

This time, he was able to invite Xu Wenruo to write a script, which was considered a big face for Mr. Liu, but now that he got the script, Mr. Liu certainly hoped to get more, so Mr. Liu thought of the news he got before, and a thought flashed in his mind.

"Director Xu, do you have any ideas about the event you planned before? If possible, we can actually talk about it."

Xu Wenruo's eyes were fixed, he understood the meaning of Mr. Liu's words, even if Xingxun Pictures had given up on that plan, the relationship between Xu Wenruo and Fengqi Studio could ensure the smooth progress of this event, but all of this It has nothing to do with Xingxun Films.

"Actually, the previous event doesn't have much meaning anymore. Fengqi Studio has launched another event."

Xu Wenruo thought about it carefully, he could indeed cooperate directly with Starcom Video, but there is no need for this cooperation at present, after all, Fengqi Studio has already carried out the activity of donating dolls, if you give Starcom Video members as gifts, It seems a bit redundant.

If you spend a lot of effort and money to hold one more event, it is better to expand the scale of the doll gift event. It has been confirmed that the number of dolls produced is 100 million, but for the huge moviegoing crowd, it is still a drop in the bucket. It's not enough.

After careful analysis, Xu Wenruo decided to expand production again, doubling the number of dolls to 200 million dolls. Even so, Xu Wenruo already knew that when "Cinderella" was released, the dolls would soon be Send light.

If there are no dolls at that time, it is estimated that they will definitely be scolded again. Therefore, when "Moonlight Box" exceeded 30 billion, Xu Wenruo increased the number of dolls to 500 million, which can be regarded as a very large sum of money.

Even the big doll factory that Qi Yue contacted has to work overtime for production. It is estimated that half of the tasks may not be completed on September [-]st, and subsequent dolls may have to be sent directly from the factory to the theaters. .

Realizing that the cards in his hand were not effective, Mr. Liu sighed slightly in his heart, but he still maintained the relationship with Xu Wenruo with a smile on his face.

"Okay, the copyright fee for the script will be sent to your studio together with the authorization contract, if you need me for anything, just ask, I will definitely help."

After finishing the call with Xu Wenruo, Mr. Liu gradually realized that something was wrong. Even though Xu Wenruo didn't reveal too much, he could feel it. Xu Wenruo seemed to have some problems with Xingxun Films. When talking about Xingxun Pictures, Xu Wenruo's tone was not right.

After working in the mall for so many years, Mr. Liu still has a strong ability to observe words and emotions, and he noticed something wrong here very keenly, so he called Mr. Wang very decisively, and was going to try his tone.

"Hey, Lao Wang, it's me. Congratulations to the box office success of the movie!"

"Same joy, same joy, you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, why is your old Liu calling me today when you have time?"

"Didn't I have something to ask you? Last time I told you to borrow someone, you should give it to me now."

As soon as Mr. Liu opened his mouth, he went to Mr. Wang to ask for someone. The friendship between them did not require too much nonsense. When he heard that Mr. Liu started to ask for someone, Mr. Wang immediately grasped the key point of the problem.

"What? Director Xu has given you the script?"

"Yes, it was just handed over to me today. I was a little anxious, so I asked you to borrow it right away."

After getting the exact news, Mr. Wang took a deep breath and forcibly calmed down his mood. He was actually very envious of the friendship between Lao Liu and Xu Wenruo. After knowing that Xu Wenruo agreed to help Lao Liu write the script, Mr. Wang also expressed his gratitude to Xu Wenruo. Asked on the sidelines, but was rejected by Xu Wenruo.

So now that he heard that Lao Liu got the script, he couldn't swallow it all at once, and thinking about Qi Yue taking the right to hold the celebration banquet from them before, Mr. Wang's heart suddenly became mixed.

"Don't be envious, you're not going to hold a celebration banquet to celebrate the movie's breakthrough of 30 billion recently, how about it, do you want me to send some people to help you and support the scene."

"No need, this time it's Fengqi Studio's turn to hold it, so you don't have to worry about it."

Mr. Wang's tone became a little stiff, and the recent atmosphere also made Mr. Wang understand one thing. If they continue to do nothing, the relationship between Fengqi Studio and them will definitely become more and more distant in the future.

Mr. Liu understood what was going on as soon as he heard it. He did not continue to chat and laugh with Mr. Wang at this time. He understood that Mr. Wang would definitely not be in a good mood. If he messed with him again, he would ruin the friendship that had lasted for more than ten years, so Mr. Liu chose to hang up the phone and let Mr. Wang calm down.

After hanging up the phone, the more Mr. Wang thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. He thought he had to take action, but it was useless to go to Xu Wenruo to maintain a relationship with this kind of thing, because the root cause happened inside the Xingxun Film Industry. The practice of the industry is very inappropriate.

Although every decision is in the interests of Xingxun Films, it is not a good thing for their partner, Fengqi Studio, and many decisions are tantamount to betrayal of Fengqi Studio.

In many cases, both sides of the cooperation need to give up some of their own interests in order to achieve the goal of win-win cooperation. If one party is narrow-minded and only considers its own interests, but is unwilling to pay and expects to enjoy the fruits of the other party's efforts, then this kind of Partnerships can easily collapse.

This is what Xingxun Films does. Many of them think that the decisions they make are in the interests of Xingxun Pictures, but they don't consider what kind of impact their actions will have on their partners. Fengqi Studio and them Cracks in relationships are normal.

Mr. Wang, who was staying in the conference room, was worried. After the company's top executives arrived, he immediately spoke about maintaining the relationship with Fengqi Studio. However, contrary to his expectation, most people in the conference room did not take it seriously.

"This Fengqi studio is too ungrateful. When they were not well-known at the beginning, they only got rich with our help. Now that they are a little bit famous, they dare to put on face with us. They really don't know what It’s called Zhien Tu Bao.”

"That's right, the celebration banquet was held by us before, but this time it was snatched away by them. It's really a villain who gets his wish, and when he gets his wish, he becomes rampant, crossing the river and tearing down the bridge."

"According to me, we have to show them some color and let them know that without our escort, the little Fengqi studio is nothing!"

Hearing Mr. Wang's words, there was a lot of discussion among the audience. Most of them were criticizing Fengqi Studio for not knowing how to repay their kindness. After using Xingxun Films, they turned against each other. It can be regarded as the behavior of a villain.

Looking at the scene of discussion below, a wry smile flashed across Mr. Wang's face. He believed that the main problem was that Xingxun Pictures was too selfish and arrogant, but these people didn't realize the problem.

If Xingxun Pictures had not committed the crime of selfishness and greed in the first place, Xu Wenruo and Fengqi Studio would not have become alienated from them. Now the cooperative relationship is basically in name only, but these people are still complaining about Fengqi Studio's problems. .

Listening to the constant discussions in his ears, Mr. Wang patted the table, and the sound of bang bang echoed in the conference room. Mr. Wang was hardened for a while. Seeing Mr. Wang's angry appearance, everyone stopped criticizing the wind. sound from the studio.

"I didn't call you here today to discuss the behavior of Fengqi Studio! I'm asking you how to maintain the cooperative relationship with Fengqi Studio and Xu Wenruo, and even after the cooperative relationship breaks down, how should we deal with the next situation!"

Mr. Wang's face was as cold as a cicada. He saw the consequences of Hefengqi's studio's stalemate, but the management didn't realize it. They seemed to be stunned by the recent commendation orders from the head office. Really I think the scores of these two films are to their credit.

Many people were even promoted and raised their salaries because of Xu Wenruo's two films. After all, these two films not only brought financial benefits to Xingxun Pictures, but more importantly, influence.

The latter is what Xingxun Group values. If it is purely to make money, Xingxun Group has many channels. The reason why it invests money to enter the film and television industry is because of the influence of this industry.

However, these people who were promoted and raised based on their grades believed that the reason for their success was all on their own, and they couldn't see Xu Wenruo's role in it at all, and even complained that their income was too little.

"The cooperative relationship needs to be maintained by both parties. It is impossible for one of us to guarantee the cooperative relationship. If they don't want to cooperate, we will not cooperate with them. We actually only have one-fifth of the film's revenue, and they don't have it at all. Think of us as partners."

"That's right, why can we only get one-fifth? I can be responsible for publicity and distribution, and I have invested a lot of resources. I can't simply divide the income based on capital investment. If Fengqi Studio wants to share with us next time To cooperate, we must increase the proportion of publicity and distribution funds."

"Yes, if they don't agree, we can do it ourselves. It's not difficult to make a comedy movie. Can't you eat pigs with hair without a butcher? With the strength of our star news film industry, we can easily do it." Pulling up a crew, at worst, we invest in our own filming, and we don’t have to share with them if we make a lot of money.”
