Huayu became famous overnight

Chapter 99: They are all thousand-year-old foxes, what's the point of playing Liao Zhai

Jingtian blushed and trotted out of the studio.

Xu Ming stood there, opening and closing his palms.

Recalling the touch just now.

So this is Jingtian you.

"Teacher Xu."

A call woke him up.

"What's wrong?" Xu Ming asked.

"Sister Yuan is here and asked me to tell you that the person you want to meet is here," said the executive director.

"Well, I see."

Xu Ming nodded. He didn’t expect that Xiaoyuan had also reached the point where she was called sister.

He was in no hurry to find the latter.

Instead, he went back to the set and waited until one take was finished.

Then he cleared his throat and said, "Director Guo, let's shoot the other people's scenes first. Jingtian's scenes will be on hold for a while."

"Okay." Guo Fan responded.

The noisy set fell silent, and everyone was murmuring in their hearts.

Isn’t it said that Jingtian has a strong background?

The show just stopped like that?

"From now on, if any actor or staff member feels that he is not in good condition and cannot adjust, I can give him a day off."

"One day is not enough, then two days. If two days are not enough, then half a month. If it doesn't work, then find someone else. I can afford it."

Xu Ming spoke sternly, looking around at everyone who didn't dare to look him in the face, "In this crew, I hope everyone will work in the same direction. If anyone drags their feet, don't blame me for being rude. No one can be an exception. Do you hear me?"

"I heard."

Everyone responded quickly.

"Okay, let's continue filming."

Xu Ming waved his hands. He had no other choice.

This was the first time everyone was working together, and Guo Fan was a newbie, so many things needed to be worked out.

In this case, strong pressure can actually make everyone work together more.

Waiting until the running-in is complete before starting work cooperation will reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble.

The reason why Jingtian was chosen to make an example of someone else.

He knew the other person's temperament well and knew that it would not cause a particularly big backlash, and his identity was also more suitable.

The only thing he didn't expect was that this blow actually triggered the opponent's hidden attributes.

No wonder every time I scold someone, he would come up to me with eager eyes.

He thought she was humble and eager to learn, but it turned out she was a McDonald's girl.

Seeing that the crew has resumed operations, efficiency has improved.

Xu Ming left with satisfaction and found Xiaoyuan and the guests waiting in the RV.

"Writer Yu, I've heard of your name for a long time."

"No way, Teacher Xu's name is well-known."

Yu Zheng stood up and he and Xu Ming flattered each other.

This is an epic meeting of two copyists.

The difference is that the former has learned from the strengths of many schools, mastered the Xiao Wuxiang Gong, and adapted other people's skills for his own use.

The latter is that Dugu Jiujian anticipated the enemy and copied before the creator, pursuing the goal of "no copying is better than copying".

At this moment, Yu Zheng can be considered a rising star in the television industry.

Films such as "The Imperial Concubine", "The Lion Roars", and "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" have all achieved commercial success.

In 07, he was named one of the top ten screenwriters of the year by TV Drama magazine, becoming one of the top screenwriters.

Last year, he founded his own studio.

It will reach a higher level after the broadcast of "Beauty's Secret", for which he serves as producer and screenwriter, next year.

"I specially invited you here this time because I want to work with you on a TV drama project."

Xu Ming paused and didn't say anything else.

The two looked at each other.

Yu Zheng was puzzled: "What about the specific information of the project?"

"Before the agreement is signed, it is inconvenient to disclose it temporarily, but it is the Qing Dynasty background that you are good at." Xu Ming smiled. They are all thousand-year-old foxes, why play Liao Zhai?

How could he not know this guy's character?

In case the cooperation fails today, I will turn around and activate the Zhanzhan Card again.

Aren’t you just following in the footsteps of the sugar man in your previous life?

The corners of Yu Zheng's eyes twitched, and he felt powerless, like a gangster being slandered.

He also has a bottom line, okay?

If it’s not a particularly good idea, he won’t copy it.

"If you don't tell me in advance, it will be difficult to cooperate. I think since we can sit down together, trust is the prerequisite, right?" Yu Zheng said.

"Yes, so before we talk about the TV series project, I have another collaboration I want to discuss with you."

Xu Ming took out the agreement he had prepared in advance and said with a faint smile: "I am very optimistic about the prospects of your studio. I would like to buy some shares to deepen our cooperation."

Don't mention the other person's character.

From a commercial perspective, Yu Zheng Studio was one of the few producers in the previous film and television industry that was able to maintain the quality of its series.

At least they really care about what the audience likes to watch.

Instead of hyping up IP, praising resourceful celebrities, buying comments, ratings, and hot searches, and then awarding yourself an award, there is no need for audience participation from beginning to end.

If a chef doesn’t taste the food he cooks, how can he know whether it is delicious or not?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu may not understand. I've worked for someone else before and I'm tired of living under someone else's roof. You've got the wrong person..."

Yu Zheng chuckled, picked up the agreement casually, and scanned it at a glance. He stopped when he saw the amount written on it.

"30% of the shares, 3 million. Sign this agreement and the money will be transferred to your account immediately. In the future, all my and Benshan Media's resources will be shared with you." Xu Ming said slowly.

Before "Beauty's Secret" was broadcast, the true commercial value of Yu Zheng Studio was not reflected.

Of course, to be precise, it is the commercial value of the certificate.

"But, working for Mr. Xu certainly doesn't count as living under someone else's roof. What do you think of 70%?"

Yu Zheng took a deep breath, but his face showed no embarrassment. Seeing that Xu Ming did not answer, he continued: "For only five million, 70% of the shares of my studio will be yours, and you will be my boss from now on."

Xu Ming looked at Yu Zheng as if he was a fool.

Then he knocked on the small coffee table and said, "I only want 30%."

Think of yourself as a fool, you only invested 30% while the other party owns 70% of the shares and can still make money for you honestly.

If he really gets 70% of it, given this guy's personality.

I am afraid that as soon as the five million is received, I will be able to escape.

You are after their interest, but they are after your principal.

"I need to ask a lawyer friend to look at this agreement. He is nearby and will be here soon. Is it convenient?" Yu Zheng asked.

"Okay." Xu Ming nodded.

This is the posture for negotiating cooperation. If the other party signs the contract regardless, he will have to doubt whether they are sincere in cooperating.

Not long after, the lawyer called by Yu Zheng arrived, and the two of them whispered outside with the agreement in their hands.

When he came back, the former signed the agreement without hesitation.

He had no idea what the future of the studio would be like, he only knew that the valuation of 10 million was definitely a premium for him, and cashing out 30% was still within his acceptable range.

What's more, Xu Ming's resources are also of great help to him.

Whether it is "Love Is Not Blind" or this school beauty contest, Qiming Entertainment behind the other party plays a crucial role in publicity.

This kind of online marketing ability is also highly valued by the certificate.

"Mr. Xu, can you now tell me the specific information of the TV project?" Yu Zheng said with some resentment.

"Have you seen the two dramas "A Step into the Past" and "A Love Across Time and Space"? One is about traveling back in time to the Qin Dynasty, and the other is about traveling back in time to the Ming Dynasty."

"What I plan to do is to travel back to the Qing Dynasty, which is called a Qing Dynasty drama. The copyright of the original novel "Startling by Each Step" has been purchased. You can check it out online later." Xu Ming said.

He had already asked Tang Sheng to include the copyright of this novel into the company's copyright library.

I haven't done it yet because I'm waiting for a mature production team.

After all, he couldn't possibly be watching it live like he is doing now, and handing over such a long film to other producers casually would only ruin the IP.

Yu Zheng was exactly the piece of the puzzle he needed.

"Actually, you don't have to buy it. The original book tells me that we can make it, too."

Yu Zheng had already started thinking about how to save money for the project. "Of course, I've already bought it, so I won't talk about this anymore."

"Ahem, after we finish filming this one, we can create an original script and continue filming the same genre," Xu Ming said, referring to "Palace Lock Heart Jade."

Yu Zheng suddenly looked up and looked at Xu Ming.

How can you guess what I'm thinking?
