Huayu: I'm just opening a treasure chest, why are you shaking your leg?

Zhou Yang sipped his tea, his eyes flickering, but his mind was racing with thoughts:

When I mentioned the movie, Zeng Jia didn't directly say he would buy my script.

"If they directly say they're investing, then there's still a chance for my plans?"

To know.

Zeng Jia is the general manager of Sweetheart Media.

The sharpness of his insight needs no further explanation.

Moreover, Zhou Yang was just a novice.

They were completely unknown, with no fame whatsoever.

All that's left is potential.

It is future value.

of course.

To put it bluntly...

When do people die?

Nobody can say for sure.

Don't be fooled by Zhou Yang's excellent songwriting skills.

They can record music.

They also make music videos.

And the music video they filmed became incredibly popular.

The profits from just the past few days are probably worth more than several hundred thousand to Jing Tian.

of course.

This also includes the costs of planning and promotion by Sweetheart Media.

But right.

If the music is mediocre, it doesn't have the potential to become a hit.

Even if you do a lot of promotion, the returns will be very small.

That proves something.

This proves that Zhou Yang's future is limitless.

Will writing a second song result in another hit?

That would be very valuable.

but--

There's something here that defies all common sense.

life--

What if Zeng Jia invests in Zhou Yang's movie production?

He died a few days later.

That would be terrible.

Even so.

Zeng Jia is a businessman's assistant.

Surprisingly, the first priority wasn't buying Zhou Yang's script.

It's an investment.

This shows how sincere they are.

But Zhou Yang also has his own bitter experiences.

He asked Han Cheng a couple of days ago.

It could be described as interrogation.

Han Cheng didn't say anything at first.

Finally, somehow, I gritted my teeth and said it.

Uncle Jiang Wen has already finished writing the system script that he hasn't read yet.

I'll be waiting for you at the end of time—

It has been approved and registered by the Beijing Film Bureau.

These past few days have been the time to prepare for filming.

Who is Jiang Wen?

A top-notch director.

Many film and television companies are scrambling to get their hands on them.

Moreover, Jiang Wen also owns his own film company.

Sunny Productions Company

It already has a "film production license (long-term)".

Zhou Yang's own thoughts.

Making a movie requires funding.

He certainly didn't have enough of his own funds; he only had a little over 20 yuan left.

"Waiting for You at the End of Time" also features some special effects.

20 isn't even enough for special effects, let alone other expenses.

There is only one way.

The Beijing Film Academy provides 30 places each year to support students in the directing department, and students with good film scripts from the literature department can also apply.

Zhou Yang is a directing student, so applying wasn't too difficult for him.

It's hard to say how much it will cost.

If it's a short film, the price is between 5 and 20 yuan, and you don't have to pay it back.

For feature films, although the money is considerable, it still needs to be repaid.

The Qingying Film Studio incubation fund ranges from 50 to 500 million yuan.

Although Zhou Yang himself doesn't need to repay it.

After the movie is released, the money earned will be used to repay the principal of the fund first.

but……

If we lose money.

Zhou Yang doesn't need to repay it.

But Zhou Yang's entire film career was completely ruined.

I'm not afraid of looking ugly.

He had confidence in his own filming skills.

Furthermore, there is a system with an 80% chance of it becoming popular.

The music alone is enough to explain it.

It became a viral sensation.

But applying for an incubation fund isn't easy.

Not only is a recommendation letter from the Beijing Film Academy required, but also several different stamps, and the applicant is also required to have any good works.

It's extremely difficult to apply if you don't even have a debut work.

Even for some professors and department heads at the Beijing Film Academy, the application process is quite complicated.

But now there are two troublesome things.

First, Jiang Wen's speed is too fast, and his background is also abnormal.

As expected, they were the first to approve the project and acquire the film rights to "Waiting for You at the End of Time".

It will be difficult for Zhou Yang to get the project approved for filming again.

It's basically impossible.

If you change the plot and the title...

It's still possible that the project has been approved.

If he were just an ordinary Zhou Yang, there would be no way he could have applied for it.

It would be much easier if we relied on the strength of Sweetheart Media Company.

Second, it's not easy to apply for the Beijing Film Academy's support fund.

If it were just now, Zhou Yang would still have hesitated.

But ever since Zeng Jia said he would directly invest in his film.

This gave Zhou Yang a glimmer of hope.

If Zeng Jia is sincere, then it will be much easier to continue the discussion.

*Smack!*

The lighter lit up, Zhou Yang took a few puffs of his cigarette, leaned back on the sofa, and sighed:

"Sigh, Senior Zeng is very loyal."

"I'm just a nobody, yet they're actually willing to invest in my movie."

"If I'm just messing around, then all the money I invested will be wasted!"

Looking at Zhou Yang's appearance, Jing Tian exclaimed in surprise:

"Yangyang, what's wrong? You seem so sad all of a sudden?"

Zhou Yang looked up at her, his gaze gentle:

"No, I'm just stating the facts."

"Facts?? What facts??" Jing Tian asked, puzzled.

Zhou Yang involuntarily put his hand to his forehead.

Zeng Jia then spoke:

"Sigh, Tian Tian, ​​Junior Zhou is thinking of us."

"We're afraid our investment will go down the drain. He's not a diamond in the rough, but a stubborn rock."

"Huh??" Jing Tian stared in disbelief, spreading her hands wide.

"I understand even less. What stubborn stone? What Bodhi jade? Is it Bodhi jade?"

Zhou Yang sighed and said:

"Senior, since you're so sincere, I'll say it. If you're still willing to invest, I'll consider it."

"Tell me about it?" Zeng Jia's expression clearly became more animated.

But Jing Tian, ​​who was sitting next to her, was even more excited, her eyes wide open.

Zhou Yang said slowly:

"Someone has already gotten my script?"

"What??" Zeng Jia's eyes flickered after hearing this, and he asked:

"Not your original work??"

"It's me." Zhou Yang sighed softly.

"It's a pity it was stolen, but at least it's not too bad!!"

"This isn't so bad. It's already been stolen, and everyone's seen it. That means the copyright isn't yours anymore," Zeng Jia said anxiously.

Zhou Yang smiled slightly:

"No, he didn't read it; he only read most of it."

"I see??" Zeng Jia touched his chin, thinking for a moment:

"If that's the case, then the two people must be thinking differently."

"That proves that the person who stole your script is not the same as the script you have now."

"Can I understand it this way?"

Zhou Yang praised:

"Senior, you're so smart! I only had to say a few words and you understood everything!"

"Who stole it?" Jing Tian, ​​who was standing to the side, naturally sensed something fishy was going on.

She immediately clenched her little fists, quite annoyed.

Zhou Yang smiled and said:

"It's alright, senior, don't be angry, it's already resolved."

"Actually, the person who stole my script is actually quite powerful; they have a very influential background?"

"Who is it? Can you tell me?" Zeng Jia asked hesitantly.

"What kind of powerful background do you have? How powerful? More powerful than mine?? Humph!! Tell me, Yangyang, I'll stand up for you."

Jing Tian frowned, looking very angry.
