Chapter 216: Once You Sit in that Position, You Will Gradually Gain the Ability
An hour later, Yang Lingyue received a call from Zeng Li.
"I contacted him and he still has the copyright, but he won't sell it."
"Have you asked about the price?" Yang Lingyue said happily.
"No one is selling it, so what's the price?" Zeng Li said dissatisfied.
"Send your phone number and I'll get in touch. Wait, Li Zi, did you contact him personally?" Yang Lingyue said with a smile.
"Yes, it's what you ordered." Zeng Li said weakly.
"I understand, don't send the phone call."
Yang Lingyue smiled and didn't criticize anything.
"Then, tell me when you get home that night," Zeng Li said.
"good."
The more Yang Ling can roughly guess what Zeng Li said to the Mai family on the phone, it's a shame if they are willing to pay attention to you.
Although the Mai family has not yet won the Mao Dun Literary Award, "The Conspiracy" written by him as the screenwriter is a precedent. It can be said that Jiang Wei adapted Long Yi's "Latent" from this, but the original work of "Latent" is only Twenty-six thousand words, a 30-episode TV series, Jiang Wei is much better than the original author Long Yi.
As for the script of the movie "The Wind", including the finished film, the plot is full of loopholes and really cannot stand up to scrutiny. The only two things that are commendable are the actors' acting skills and uniformity.
For example, captain Wu's singing opera spread the information, and the original work was passed on based on the length and shortness of the grass on the painting.
There are always many directors who think they are better than a well-known writer in the field of professional knowledge.
In fact, if some of the exciting plots of the original work were filmed, the achievements of "The Wind" would be more than that, and the overseas box office would not be just a drizzle.
Therefore, the key is still the screenwriter.
What would happen if Mai Jia and Jiang Wei, two masters of spy war dramas, wrote this script?
So, Huayi, don't waste things.
Yang Lingyue then put this idea on hold for the time being, and instead discussed the storyboard of the "Lonely Warrior" MV with his team.
The story is just that, and it can be easily completed in two days. Wang Zizhao is now starting to worry about gains and losses, especially since Yang Lingyue said that Chen Yixun will be a guest star.
Yang Lingyue didn't give Wang Zizhao a shot of chicken blood. If he couldn't calm down at the end, he would continue training.
Zeng Li has been in the society for ten years, and she still has to be rejected when she should. In the past, she had many smooth battles and encountered some bumps. For example, when negotiating with China Film Group, Yang Lingyue used his previous life experience to pull her through like a mountain.
The vast majority of people sit in that position not because they have the ability, but because they sit in that position and slowly develop the ability.
It's cruel, but it's true.
This is pretty good, but I'm afraid that after sitting on it for so long, I'm still incompetent. This is what the so-called mud can't hold up the wall.
"Then the filming will officially start on May 18th?" Yang Lingyue asked.
"Well, I'll set up the venue first this weekend." Wang Zizhao nodded.
"Okay, if you have any difficulties, try to overcome them by yourself." Yang Lingyue said with a smile.
"Understood, you have done the most difficult part, I, Xiao Guicao, can just follow suit." Wang Zizhao did not laugh along, but said seriously.
"Okay, I will go over and be your assistant when the time comes." Yang Lingyue said.
"That's what you said." Wang Zizhao smiled.
It doesn't matter if Yang Ling can't get over it. After all, he is a working consultant, screenwriter, songwriter and Chen Yixun's inviter.
In the afternoon, Taobao paid the final payment, which was 1 million after tax.
Jiang Qi told Yang Lingyue that he had urgently contacted major TV stations and online platforms and would broadcast it online on May 10, prime time.
As expected of a big company, it's really rich.
But Jiang Qi said that the TV version needs to remove the credits.
Yang Lingyue expressed his understanding of this, as long as the Internet is available, otherwise it would be too much, and we can only do it according to the contract.
So far, "Love in the Third Hand" has cost actors 6,000 RMB for the film, 10,000 RMB for the main creator, 9,000 RMB for venue and props, 4,000 RMB for food and accommodation, transportation, 4,000 equipment, 4,000 editing, and 3,000 soundtrack (paid to Huamuan Media), for a total of 40,000 RMB.
1.06 million belongs to Yang Lingyue’s personal income, and 100,000 belongs to the studio’s income.
Capitalist~
But they are short of money again. The record company has been transfusing money and has transferred 50 million to the film and television company one after another. It will soon raise another 40 million to buy a house, leaving just over 20 million in the account for turnover.
The funds in the United States will have to be withdrawn before Lehman Brothers goes bankrupt. Just wait and see.
There was no movie appreciation class tonight, so Yang Lingyue returned to Courtyard No. 5 early, and Du Xiaoyu led a small team to celebrate the successful completion of the Taobao commercial and the preparatory meeting for the "Lonely Warrior" MV.
The three people who did not participate in the filming looked disappointed and expressed their opinions that they would never run around again.
"Tell me, what are you going to do?" Zeng Li asked.
"Correct your attitude. Let me talk about the mistakes you made first." Yang Lingyue said seriously.
"Oh." Zeng Li straightened up.
You're not Yu Li, so what's the use?
"First, I'll let you make the arrangements, just make the arrangements..." Yang Lingyue sat down and stretched out a finger.
"I know, I am a manager, not an executor." Zeng Li raised her hand to answer.
"You say it or should I say it?" Yang Lingyue said beautifully.
"You say it, you say it, I won't interrupt." Zeng Li quickly sat down obediently.
"Your identity as a film and television producer is not yet widely known, and your company does not have a name. People who know you regard you as an actor with no reputation...
Why don't you be so serious? I'm analyzing the problem for you, okay? Yang Lingyue said helplessly.
"It's not right if I say it, and it's wrong if I don't say it." Zeng Li rolled her eyes.
"Zeng Damei, I'm not your boyfriend or your fiancé now. I'm your boss. If you want to hear it, just accept it. If you don't want to, just become a mascot in the future. I'll just let Liu Wenhan do it." Yang Lingyue frowned and said in a deep voice. .
Zeng Li finally understood why her boyfriend said before: "It's not suitable for a family to be in the same company" and "How can I manage you?" These words meant.
You know, you know, facing such a boyfriend, I feel a little scared and a little aggrieved, but mostly unconvinced, why is he a mascot?
"Then tell me, what would I do if it were you?" Zeng Li bit her lip and asked.
Seeing Zeng Li's appearance, Yang Lingyue softened her heart, thought for a while and said:
"I said to arrange it now, which means that this book is very important. You contacted me immediately because you love me and believe in my vision.
But we don’t have a name yet, so we need to know how to leverage our strengths. Liu Wenhan is in charge of these things in the company. If he were to handle it, his rhetoric should be: “We are a company that focuses on investing in espionage and crime themes. The company, we are fully invested in the new films of Nortel Jiang Wei and Cao Baoping, and oh, by the way, we are also investing in Ning Hao’s new films.”
Don’t believe it? Then you arrange this matter to Liu Wenhan, explain the cause and effect to him clearly, and tell him to tell you if he wants to contact the Mai family, and you will know after listening. "
