Chapter 797 Why Don’t You Push It?

Zhao Linhai really didn’t know!

If he knew, he would at least ask Xudong what he thought...

Shen Xudong simply signaled Chen Xi to call and ask Zhao Linhai. The latter answered the phone quickly, and Chen Xi turned on the speakerphone:

""Tongque Terrace"...I know. I also gave him an idea to pester Zhou Runfa. I heard that Zhou Runfa finally agreed..."

"agreed?"

"Yes, it seems that I only received a salary of 1 million yuan!"

"...Wow, that can save a lot of production costs."

"Um…"

Zhou Runfa is famously expensive. When he was working on "Red Cliff", Zhang Jiazhen criticized him for demanding money, having too many rules, and being difficult to cooperate with. This time he joined "Tongque Terrace" at a low price. In addition to the script, I guess he also wanted to show himself to the world. It’s not that I don’t want to play the Three Kingdoms, it’s that I don’t want to play Zhou Yu…

Calculated according to his basic price, a salary of 100 yuan is definitely a break...

From this perspective, Zhao Linshan is indeed capable.

Chen Xi then asked: "So, you let him cooperate with Changying under the banner of Tianmei?"

Zhao Linhai on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "...What?"

Hearing this tone, Chen Xi glanced at Shen Xudong and whispered: "He doesn't know!"

"Who are you talking to? Why don't I know?"

Shen Xudong answered: "...Old Zhao, it's me!"

Zhao Linhai immediately answered: "Xudong...what happened?"

Shen Xudong told the story again. It was nothing more than Zhao Linshan pulling the flag and using the reputation of Tianmei Media as a bargaining chip for himself...

"...How could he do this? Knowing that we have our own Three Kingdoms series...wait a minute, I'll ask!"

"Who are you asking?"

"I asked Changying's friends!"

"...Oh, I'll wait for your call."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Xudong said to Liu Yifei: "I've read the script of "Tongque Terrace". It's a pretty good script, no worse than "The Night Banquet" and "The City of Golden Armor"!"

Liu Yifei was happy at first, and then wondered: "Then why did you refuse?"

"... In terms of subject matter, this subject matter is outdated. If it was shot around 2004, it would be quite refreshing, but now it can only be regarded as an old theme... In addition, I watched the short film shot by Zhao Linshan, and his skills are somewhat lacking... Very A dull director with no aura, so..." Speaking of this, Shen Xudong shrugged: "Besides, our company already has a complete plan for the Three Kingdoms theme, there is no need to add a film with conflicting styles!"

Chen Xi finished reading the script and nodded: "The theme is indeed a bit out of date..."

"Shall I take it?"

"... Whatever, the role of Ling Ju is a bit like Wu Ming in "Hero", he is still played by someone, and I am quite familiar with the screenwriter, senior brother Wang Hailin!"

"...The screenwriter of "Wanjuan Tower"?"

"Um,"

Chen Xichong explained to Liu Yifei: ""Wanjuan Tower" is a sitcom jointly produced by us and Huace the year before last."

Shen Xudong gave an objective reminder: "...The probability of his script being a hit is not high, but it won't be too ugly either!"

"Then should I talk to him about the role?"

"Whatever...it's best to bring your mother with you..."

Wang Hailin is an extremely double standard person. His good friend Cheng Qingsong openly showed off on a public platform that he played with underage boys. He didn't say a word, but the traffic was obviously acting in a drama about delaying reform, which was like killing his whole family...

However, Shen Xudong still admires him, at least he has trolled a lot of people!

Our industry is anything but normal...

The upper-level ideological control can do whatever they want without even saying hello;

Capital is unscrupulous and inhumane and plunders and seizes the traffic guided by big data, making the domestic film and television industry grow more barbarically and cruelly...

Under this general premise, he is the only one who can speak up and have some influence! Whether he is a gangster or a puppet, at least he said it!

Everyone needs to find their own position. You can't ask everyone to be a hero. There are a few scoundrels who like to beat up "dirty dogs", but that doesn't stop us from eating, right?

…

Regarding "Tongque Tower", it was actually the filming opportunity that Zhao Linshan fought for.

Changying Film will allocate funds to produce one or two movies every year, and "Tongque Terrace" is this year's biggest project!

Changying has long since stopped focusing on movies as its main business and cannot compete at all!

Transformed into real estate...

In 2003, relevant national departments and the Jilin Provincial Government raised 300 million yuan in support funds, and Changying Group spent 300 million yuan in land sales to start the Changying Century City project. At the same time, Changying Group, which had tasted the benefits of land sales, began to enter the real estate field and established a real estate company in 2010.

Well, the Changying Global 100 project jointly launched by Changying Group and Hong Kong City has been officially launched. The project covers an area of ​​7,000 acres and has a total investment of 43.6 billion yuan!

But after all, Changying Film enjoys the National Cultural Support Fund, so it is impossible to completely give up on movies...

There are so many pairs of eyes staring at it.

That "Tongque Terrace" is a big production, a grand spectacle, a gathering of stars, and Zhang Yi's team behind the scenes. It is a typical Chinese blockbuster!

In order to open up overseas markets, Japanese and Japanese actors were specially invited to participate...

According to their logic, there is absolutely no possibility of failure!

What's more, Zhao Linshan also said that Tianmei Media is responsible for publicity and distribution...

"So, we did this play!"

Zhao Linhai was speechless: "Are you sure?"

"That's just what your cousin told me!"

"...Dad, you have been deceived. My cousin came to me before. I took the script and went to Xudong. After some research, we found that the style of "Tongque Terrace" is different from the Three Kingdoms series produced by our company, and even Conflict, so I refused..."

"Refuse to invest?"

"Um…"

"Is it okay to help with the distribution?"

Zhao Linhai hesitated for a moment, and then said: "...I'll ask other people's opinions. Tell me, how could my cousin do this... If I do this, I will not be a good person in the company!"

"Aren't you and Xudong brothers..."

"A modern enterprise cannot have this kind of thinking..."

After chatting for five or six minutes, Zhao Linhai still hung up the phone and dialed Shen Xudong's number.

…

After the dinner, Shen Xudong and Chen Xi said their goodbyes and left.

Both of them were sitting in the back row, and Chen Xi suddenly said: "I think you like Liu Yifei quite a lot?"

"Who doesn't like nonsense?"

She is Shen Xudong's Bai Yueguang!

Of course, Xudong has a lot of white moonlight. Fortunately, he does not have a hobby of collecting stamps, otherwise, his kidneys would not be able to survive at all!

"Then why did you still steal her copy of "Four Famous Catchers"?"

"This was Wang Changtian's initiative. Nazha is also suitable, so I agreed!"

"...You didn't know that Liu Yifei was already involved in this project?"

Shen Xudong glanced at her: "So what if I know? Do I have to quit now that I know?"

"So, you don't like it!"

"Appreciate...after all, who doesn't love beautiful women."

"Hey, what are we going to do about "Tongque Terrace"?"

Shen Xudong sighed: "It's difficult to handle. Next year's schedule is very crowded. If we are responsible for publicity and distribution, we won't be able to give it a big schedule!"

Chen Xi also sighed, thought for a while, and suggested: "How about we push it?"

"This is the first time that Lao Zhao has asked me for help..."
