Entertainment Empire System
Chapter 476 Xiaoao wants to replace the crew
Zhang Jizhong threw the script on the coffee table and said very firmly: "Inform a few people on the crew to hold a meeting, and also notify Xu Qing." At this time, Huang Jianzhong was a little puzzled. In fact, Lao Zhang was like this If he could tolerate Shao Bin with his hot temper until now, that would be quite a feat. Anyway, from Huang Jianzhong's point of view, it was only a matter of time before Shao Bin was replaced. The sooner he could be replaced, the less the crew would suffer. But at this time, Huang Jianzhong said unexpectedly: "Director Zhang, you said you wanted to notify Xu Qing, is it necessary?"
Zhang Jizhong shook his head and said: "If the male and female lead actors are replaced, the female lead actors have to be comforted for a while. Otherwise, in such a situation, it will be impossible to show the importance we attach to the actors. This It is very detrimental to the stability of a crew, so we must notify Xu Qing and tell her the news in advance to let her know that the crew is about to be replaced."
Zhang Jizhong has been able to operate in the circle for so many years. In fact, he naturally means a person with means, not just a person with a bad temper. If he had just a bad temper, he wouldn't be able to persist until now in such a situation.
It is impossible for a reckless person to become a qualified producer, and Zhang Jizhong also has his own careful side.
In fact, when the crew held a meeting, there were only five people who came. Except for Zhang Jizhong and Huang Jianzhong, Xu Qing was one of them. As the heroine, she had the right to know this. Another one is the director of Tianchao TV. Obviously, Tianchao TV will not give absolute power to Zhang Jizhong. This director is the financial director, who is responsible for monitoring the financial problems of the entire crew. This can also avoid the production A way for one family to dominate.
But as long as everyone has weaknesses, the financial director was basically ignored by Zhang Jizhong. Zhang Jizhong is the real boss in the crew, and every word counts. The other person is the investor. Although Jin Yong gave the adaptation rights of Swordsman to CCTV for one yuan, at this time, making a movie requires real money. Probably all free.
But it would be unrealistic for Tianchaotai to invest all of it. Why can Zhang Jizhong become a producer? In fact, to put it bluntly, Zhang Jizhong can attract sponsorship. As long as he can attract sponsorship, he is the boss in the circle.
The person behind Shao Bin is actually the investor Ye Shengmei. This is a real estate developer. She is very rich. She is also willing to invest in the electronic entertainment industry recently, and the other party is Tianchao TV. Basically, this kind of investment There is no possibility of losing money.
Therefore, Ye Shengmei agreed to make this investment, but Ye Shengmei actually had conditions, that is, Shao Bin must be the leading actor in the TV series. When discussing substitutions at this time, it is actually just a matter of calling in a few of them to discuss it.
In Zhang Jizhong's opinion, the financial director did not have the courage to go against him, so this could be ignored.
Moreover, the financial director also complained about Shao Bin's very low dormitory, because Shao Bin had to be reimbursed for his shopping expenses even in his free time at this time. Therefore, Zhang Jizhong was very clear at this time. In such a situation, his resistance was the fat middle-aged woman sitting in front of him, the wealthy Ye Shengmei.
At this time, Ye Shengmei was actually looking puzzled. She didn't come to the set often, so why did she get called over for a meeting so late at night when she came? Did the crew say there were any meetings that he had to attend? This makes Ye Shengmei a little strange.
At that moment, Ye Shengmei also said unceremoniously: "Producer Zhang, it's late at night. I'm here to find you. Is there something big going on with the crew?"
Speaking of this, Ye Shengmei also glanced at Xu Qing with some jealousy. She was a great beauty, a beauty that would make men's hearts flutter when they saw her. Her youthful and beautiful appearance made even her jealous.
Ye Shengmei actually despises this kind of actress who is younger and more beautiful than herself. Therefore, she always said that she was not very polite when speaking, even if the other party was Zhang Jizhong, it was the same. After all, Ye Shengmei is confident. She is the sponsor and investor. There is no need to look at Zhang Jizhong's face.
Zhang Jizhong said with a smile: "Don't be anxious, Mr. Ye. There is indeed a problem when I come to you this time, and I have a very close relationship with Mr. Ye. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here so late at night." . Director Wang, please introduce the situation." This middle-aged fat man called Director Wang is short and stocky and looks like a rubber ball.
His two little eyes were darting around, but in such a situation, he had no stage fright at all. Because Director Wang knew very well that he was a public servant, and as long as he didn't offend Zhang Jizhong, he really didn't care about others. This is the confidence of people in the system. What can Ye Shengmei do if she has money?
Director Wang said slowly: "The crew has spent a total of 1,327,843 yuan since filming. This is quite surprising. A lot of expenses are actually completely unnecessary. . Many of them were reimbursed by Shao Bin for no reason. Moreover, according to the reports of the following people, the actor Shao Bin took phone calls casually during filming, and every time it took at least half an hour, not even an hour. Place. During this process, everyone had to wait for him before they could start filming. As the leading actor, this is disrespectful to the entire crew. Miss Xu Qing, do you think I am not exaggerating?"
Although Xu Qing said that she didn't have much scheming, she also knew very well that in such a situation, the situation was very unfavorable for Shao Bin. But Xu Qing was a person who told the truth. After thinking about it, he said: "Sometimes, Shao Bin does waste some time, but who doesn't have personal matters?"
Although what Xu Qing said made sense, Shao Bin had too many personal matters, to the point where even Zhang Jizhong couldn't bear them. Therefore, under such a situation, it happened that he was taken down. Xu Qing was also unwilling to offend anyone casually.
Zhang Jizhong snorted and said: "To deal with personal matters and make the whole crew wait for him, an actor like this has no artistic ethics and has no respect for a crew member at all. To make everyone wait for him, this is bad for the whole crew." The impact on the crew was very bad. The most important thing about the second phase was that Shao Bin didn't listen to the director. We couldn't keep an actor like this on the crew, so I decided to replace him."
This statement made Xu Qing very surprised. It had been a month since filming started, and in such a situation, when it came to replacing people, it was almost like something that had never happened again. But Xu Qing was not surprised at all by such a thing. Shao Bin's performance in the crew is indeed a very big name, very extraordinary.
But the one who was even more surprised was Ye Shengmei. Ye Shengmei said very unhappily: "Lao Zhang, you don't mean what you say. I told you clearly about Feihang before I invested. If you use Shao Bin to play the role of male If it is No. 1, then I will invest. If you change people, I will recover the investment." This is a threat, a naked threat. Generally speaking, this kind of threat is very common in the entertainment industry. It's effective, and few film crews can even resist such a threat from investors.
Moreover, under such a situation, it has been one month since the filming of the TV series started. If the actors are changed, the losses will not be huge under such a situation. Therefore, more often than not, producers will choose to compromise. But Ye Shengmei met Zhang Jizhong. Zhang Jizhong was not an ordinary person, and he could not be threatened by just a few words.
Sure enough, when Zhang Jizhong heard what Ye Shengmei said, he was very unhappy and said: "Chairman Ye, you have to pay attention to your wording. We have a contract, but the contract does not stipulate that Shao Bin must be used. Therefore, if you tear up the contract If so, you will be legally responsible."
For general reference, in fact, something like a lawsuit can confuse some people. In such a situation, you can also see the difference between rich people. Ye Shengmei is indeed a rich man. , snorted quite arrogantly and said: "Lao Zhang, don't do this with me. You don't know my temper. If you are responsible, don't you just lose a little money? I don't have anything else. I have plenty of money. , I can still afford to lose this little money. On the other hand, if your crew is filming for such a long time, if you find a male lead, he must be better than Shao Bin, right?"
At this time, seeing Ye Shengmei refusing to give in, Zhang Jizhong said tit for tat: "You don't have to worry about this. If you continue to invest, I welcome it, but if you don't want to invest, forget it. As for saying we want another The person we are looking for is indeed more powerful than Shao Bin. This person is Ye Ming, the newly promoted Berlin Best Actor, the first Chinese Berlin Best Actor, and also the president of Brilliant Film and Television. For such a person, I think You must have heard of it.”
Although it is said that Ye Shengmei does not care much about the entertainment industry, Ye Ming's reputation is really too great, and he is a leader of the younger generation.
Therefore, when Zhang Jizhong mentioned Ye Ming's name, Ye Shengmei understood very clearly that it seemed impossible for Shao Bin to retain the leading role. Ye Ming was much more famous than Shao Bin and was not a celebrity at all. There is no comparison between actors of this caliber. (To be continued)
