Let you invest, and you can support half of the entertainment industry?
Chapter 5 No one wants too much money
"But... my contract is still with Rong Xinda." Yang Yang said bitterly.
It was true that Xu Jia's invitation was very tempting to him, but when he thought about his contract, his eyes felt gloomy.
"This is not important, what is important is your own thoughts." Xu Jia said.
He wasn't worried about Rong Xinda. The only thing he had to worry about was whether Yang Yang would be willing to follow him.
If other companies contact Yang Yang first, it is not very attractive to rely on his own studio.
"As long as I can be filmed, I will be satisfied, but the amount of liquidated damages I have to pay is not small..." Yang Yang did not continue.
Companies have contacted him over the years, but they automatically backed down after seeing the amount on the contract.
And with Li Shaohong and Li Xiaowan's status in the circle, few people are willing to offend Rong Xinda for him.
"Don't worry, I will negotiate with Rong Xinda on your behalf, but if they don't accept it, I'm afraid you need to come forward to handle something in person." Xu Jia said.
"What's the matter?" Yang Yang asked confused.
Xu Jiafu said a few words beside Yang Yang, and the latter's expression suddenly became struggling.
"That's not good, after all, I can become an actor because of the support of Director Li Shaohong." Yang Yang looked embarrassed.
If Li Shaohong hadn't decided that he would become the adult Jia Baoyu, it's not certain whether he would have been able to enter the entertainment industry.
Xu Jia had long expected that Yang Yang would have this idea, otherwise this honest child wouldn't have been able to stay stupidly in Rong Xinda for so many years.
"Even if Rong Xinda is kind to you, the five years you have wasted are all over, right? And Rong Xinda now has Lin Yushen and Yu Xiaotong, where is your place?"
Xu Jia's words touched Yang Yang's sore spot. Only when he saw this situation clearly did he feel that he would never get ahead in Rong Xinda.
Even if Xu Jia doesn't come to him, he will choose to save himself.
But the appearance of Xu Jia accelerated the process.
"Believe me, you won't suffer by following me. You will definitely have a place in the entertainment industry in the future."
Xu Jia patted Yang Yang on the shoulder and drew the pie without hesitation.
It’s not like someone in the previous life became a top-notch person through his own efforts, but now with his own help, his crotch is stretched, right?
Yang Yang's hesitant eyes gradually became firm. He looked at Xu Jia and nodded heavily.
"Okay, this matter is settled. You go back and read "Tomb Raiders Notes", especially the character Zhang Qiling, and try to figure it out carefully." Xu Jia said.
Although he and Huanrui Century haven't settled down yet, it doesn't stop him from using it to draw cakes for Yang Yang.
As expected, Yang Yang's eyes lit up when he heard Xu Jia's words.
This means that the role of Zhang Qiling in "Tomb Robbers" was probably reserved for him by Xu Jia. It seems that what Xu Jia said before about tailoring a drama for him was not a lie.
After negotiating with Yang Yang, Xu Jia asked people to contact Rong Xinda's people to see if they could resolve the matter peacefully.
After all, this is Sister Mimi's old club. Even if they are poaching people, they must be courteous before attacking.
Three days later, no news came from Rong Xinda. Instead, the news came from Huanrui Century first.
They finally relented and were willing to talk to Xu Jia about the production of "Tomb Raiders".
After Xu Jia received the good news, he rushed to Happy Century as soon as possible.
In fact, when "Tomb Raiders" was broadcast in its previous life, its reputation was not good, and it could even be said to be bad.
But the huge number of views is not fake. Yang Yang also became popular because of his role as the little brother. What Xu Jia values is the ability of this drama to entertain people.
Needless to say, Happy Century is quite capable in this aspect, and two of the top four stars came out of their films.
The secretary led him to the door of the president's office.
It's said to be CEO, but actually there's a subtitle in front of it, but it's enough to make Xu Jia feel strange.
I just revealed my intention, and the two parties have not yet contacted each other, and a vice president of this level appears. Isn't it a little too important to take myself too seriously?
"Dong Dong Dong~"
"Please come in!"
Xu Jia pushed the door open and entered the office. The place was not big. Apart from a desk, there were only coffee tables and sofas for guests.
The man sitting behind the desk wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and there was still smoke above the ashtray on the desk, and he was looking at Xu Jia.
"Mr. Jia, I'm really flattered that you came forward to receive me." Xu Jia was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile.
He is naturally no stranger to the management of Huanrui Century. After all, it is the company affiliated with the studio.
The man with black-rimmed glasses in front of me is Jia Shikai, the vice president of Huanrui Century. I heard that this man has been in charge of the brokerage business. Why does he care about a small online drama?
But Xu Jia remembered that this guy did something big later, but he couldn't remember it for the moment.
"Haha, this is an exaggeration. Sit down first. You're welcome. We are a family after all." Jia Shikai extended his hand to invite Xu Jia to take a seat.
"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey."
Xu Jia sat down on the sofa and spoke first: "Mr. Jia, I'm here to talk about the copyright issue of "Tomb Raiders Notes". Please give me a price."
It's a pity that he was reborn a little late. A few years earlier, a lot of copyrights would have been cheap.
"I've heard that you want to be independent. Now are you planning to make a self-produced drama?" Jia Shikai said with a hidden smile.
It can be said that everyone is well aware of the separation of Yangmi Studio from Huanrui, but this is the first time it has been made public.
After all, until the results come out, no one wants to break their skin for the time being.
What's more, the circle is so big, and there may be no need for cooperation in the future.
"You have to ask Sister Mi about this, but Huanrui doesn't seem to have any rules about discussing cooperation only with subsidiaries, right?" Xu Jia asked in a cold tone.
Regarding his capital injection into the studio, currently only insiders are aware of it.
However, before officially leaving Huanrui, the two sides still barely maintained a superficial harmony.
"That's not true, it's just that "Tomb Raiders" is the company's test film for online dramas, and the company never sells the copyright." Jia Shikai shook his head.
This kind of novel with a fan base is what film and television companies are most willing to adapt and produce, and naturally they will not let it go easily.
"How about we cooperate in production? We can take care of all the funds, and you only need to be responsible for distribution and production. We will discuss the specific distribution later."
Xu Jia smiled inwardly. He had long expected that there was little hope of buying the copyright, so he came up with plan B.
Anyway, the studio now has a lot of money on its books. In addition to its own 500 million, it also has 300 million from Shangshi Pictures.
"Do you think we, Huanrui Century, are short of money?" Jia Shikai sounded a little disdainful.
"The Story of Ancient Swords" has just finished airing, and Huanrui has made a lot of money, so funding is naturally not a problem.
"I don't think anyone would mind having too much money, not to mention that sometimes money is not everything, such as our Da Mimi's film contract."
The corners of Xu Jia's mouth turned up slightly. Sister Mi's current topic level could only be compared to Bingbing in the entire domestic entertainment industry. As the studio is about to become independent, Huanrui must also be struggling with who to fill the void left by Yang Mi.
