Chapter 1670 Cost Issue
Although Producer Li was also very satisfied and very satisfied, he also hoped that Chu Yan could play the role in this drama.
But he is a producer, not a director.
Producers and directors have different perspectives, and naturally they will look at problems differently.
He thought more of a cost issue.
If you change the male number one now, the contract signed with the male number one will have to be breached.
The breach of contract requires payment of liquidated damages, which is 30 million yuan in liquidated damages, which already accounts for nearly a quarter of the total investment.
Taking advantage of the time when Chu Yan was removing makeup and changing clothes, Producer Li took Director Wang aside: "Director Wang, the number one male has been set, but it cannot be changed."
Director Wang immediately raised his eyebrows and said, "Who said you can't change it? Don't you have eyes to see? Chu Yan is many times better than the actor you were looking for. Can you do it without changing?"
If there was no Chu Yan's presence, it would be just fine.
But now with Chu Yan, there is no harm without comparison.
This hurts too much, and the eyes are so hot.
Producer Li said: "The liquidated damages are 30 million yuan!" He also knew that there was a certain gap between the two, and that the current Chu Yan was more suitable for this role.
But this liquidated damages is also very realistic, right in front of him, he can't pretend to be blind and didn't see it.
Director Wang waved his hand: "I don't care about that. You can handle the money. I just direct the play. As a director, it is my responsibility to direct the play well and present the best effect to the audience. ,do not bother me."
Director Wang left after speaking, and approached Chu Yan to get close.
Director Wang is considered a relatively well-known director in the industry. He doesn't even see ordinary actors in his eyes. Actors who can catch his eye must be talented.
The Chu Yan in front of him just met these three criteria.
As long as he gets into his eyes, then he will have nothing in front of this person, and he will call him a brother in seconds. The previous high coldness and bad contact are all thrown into the clouds.
Producer Li grabbed his hair and went to the balcony, smoking one cigarette after another, thinking of many ways in his head, and finally turned into a sigh.
He has cooperated with Director Wang three times, and Director Wang's temper is the most clear to him. When choosing an actor, he usually just looks at it and doesn't make a decision very much, because he rarely encounters someone who can make him decide by himself.
But if he made the decision, there would be no room for turning around.
I want him to give up, unless even the director is changed.
But this script was written by Director Wang himself. If you change the director, you have to change the script. All the work you did before was in vain.
In this way, the loss is not only 30 million, but also a lot of precious time.
That's all, I hope that this Chu Yan can live up to Director Wang's expectations, maximize the value of this play, and earn back the tens of millions that have been lost.
However, what Producer Li did not expect was that the previous male lead had a close relationship with an investor in the play.
After the male number one was replaced, the investor immediately announced the withdrawal of capital.
There is more than one investment room for a play, usually around five. And these five people are inextricably linked with each other.
One person quit, and the other four felt that the signs were not right, so they all followed suit.
Therefore, the good crew is facing the crisis of disbanding.
Li Zhichou's hair was turning white, and he dragged Wang Dao to squat in the corner to drink and drink: "If we can't get any new investment, we're afraid that this drama will be yellow."
This was the last thing he wanted to say, and what he had to say.
