Chapter 71 Planning
The people in the small conference room left one after another, and now only Shao Bing, Jiang Duzhou and Mao Bin were left.
When Wei Xun came back, he noticed the dull atmosphere inside, and wondered, "What's the matter?"
Mao Bin twitched the corner of his mouth, but said nothing.
Shao Bing stood up, wrapped Wei Xun's shoulder with one hand, and said with emotion: "Brother, you are really wild."
He dared to bring up a box office guarantee of more than one billion yuan without changing his face, and he also wanted to use "Wuwen Xidong" and "Chinese Partner" to confront Tianguang Media and Dynasty Entertainment.
Although this is crazy and bold, it has to be said that in Shao Bing's view, Wei Xun is really courageous.
"It's just forced by the situation, it's all for a more comfortable life."
Wei Xun smiled and said, "Old Shao, I will leave it to you to direct "The Chinese Partner". For the three leading actors, I will play Dongqing, Brother Jiang will play Wang Yang, and as for the last Meng Xiaojun, I miss you." Come play."
When Shao Bing heard the words, he almost thought he heard it wrong: "I will act?"
"Which one of the great directors who have made a name for themselves in the industry can't be an excellent actor? You can sit behind the camera and guide others to act, why can't you act yourself, and it's not like you haven't acted in movies before."
Wei Xun pulled up Jiang Duzhou who was next to him, put his other hand on his shoulder, and the three men gathered together to form a small circle.
Jiang Duzhou complained: "It's just... hugging so tightly, it feels a bit base."
"Don't be poor." Wei Xun kicked him lightly, and then said with a smile: "How about brothers, let's form a game?"
This bureau is naturally "Chinese Partner".
Shao Bing and Jiang Duzhou looked at each other and smiled: "You've already called your brother, so can Lao Jiang and I disagree?"
"terrific."
Wei Xun let go, and on the Jiangdu boat, Shao Bing punched each in the chest: "You know, buddy, it's really difficult recently. If you thank me, I'll..."
"It's all right, don't get tired of this trick."
Jiang Duzhou interrupted Wei Xun, took Shao Bing and walked out: "Don't worry, Xun Xun, when "Wu Wen Xi Dong" is finished this month, I will go to "Chinese Partner" with Lao Shao next month. place."
Wei Xun looked at the background of the two of them leaving, and said helplessly: "I still have something to say, Lao Shao, remember to give me the title of assistant director of "Partners in China"."
Shao Bing waved his hand without looking back: "Listen to you, who made you the investor."
When everyone was gone, Wei Xun found a place to sit down at random, and rubbed the space between his brows wearily.
"Brother Xun, I actually don't understand. Let's cooperate with Huaying Media and Times Films to shoot "Wuwen Xidong" step by step. Wouldn't it be better to work steadily? I thought, after you terminate the contract with Tianguang Media, I will choose to sign with Huaying or Times Pictures, after all, we have cooperated with these two and are familiar with them."
Mao Bin sat down next to Wei Xun, and said softly: "But you just started filming "Wuwen Xidong", you first forcibly seized the directorship, and then clashed with Zou Min, and now you push away Huaying Media's investment in "Chinese Partner" , tied Times Pictures onto the boat. No matter what the film will be like in the future, you were so strong when you cooperated with Huaying and Times Pictures, will we still be able to sign with these two companies in the future?"
Wei Xun opened his eyes, and said calmly: "Binzi, sometimes not only the enemy wants to destroy you, but also your partners will also try to get your idea. I am deeply involved in the Skylight Media lawsuit, and I am still involved in several entertainment companies. What do you think is the reason for dealing with giants?"
Mao Bin said in frustration: "Because we are soft-spoken and have no background, we deal with everything alone."
"Yeah, because our strength is too weak. Therefore, I have to be strong in cooperation with Huaying and Times, so as not to be bullied. I want to occupy the filming rights of "Wuwen Xidong", and I will be named in the future. Assistant director of "Chinese Partner."
"In these two films, powerful actors such as Zhai Qing and Jiang Duzhou cooperated to help me raise coffee. I will be the assistant director of Qi Jibai and Shao Bing to prove my directing ability. When the films are released, the box office will sell well, including my Screenwriting ability and box office ability will be quickly recognized by the market."
"Assuming that, since I am a screenwriter, actor, and director recognized by the market, and I can also be an investor myself and achieve self-sufficiency in resources, why should I sign an economic contract with other companies to restrict myself?"
When Wei Xun said this, he smiled: "Actually, after the contract settlement lawsuit with Tianguang Media is over, we can start our own company, can't we? Think about it, when "Wuwen Xidong" and "Chinese Partner" take me It is completely feasible for me to write, direct, act, and invest in the next film."
Mao Bin was shocked by these words.
This is also the first time he has heard Wei Xun's plan for his future completely.
In this current time and space, the celebrity studio system has not yet been born, and artists are firmly controlled by entertainment companies. Even the most famous actors, almost no one chooses to go it alone.
Because I left the brokerage company, I couldn't get good resources.
But Wei Xun is like a bug-like existence. He can play the four roles of screenwriter, actor, director and investor, and is fully capable of creating resources by himself.
That being the case, why not go it alone?
"Can……"
Mao Bin felt that he was a little convinced. He calmed down and smoothed his thoughts, and said with difficulty: "But what if both of our movies... hit the street?"
"I owe more than [-] million foreign debts now. These two movies hit the street, and I just owe more than [-] million. What's the difference?"
Wei Xun smiled: "But if I follow what you said, I will proceed step by step and pay off several million debts a month like before. At least in the next five years, I will be dragged to death in this deep pit and cannot get out. , and at the same time have to face the joint ban of Tianguang and Dynasty. So the situation has gotten to this point, it’s better to give it a go. And don’t worry, I know the box office well.”
Mao Bin fell silent upon hearing this.
After a while, he said shyly, "Then what shall we do next?"
"Recently, I will go through the scene of crossing the river in "Wuwen Xidong" with Lao Qi, and when Lao Qi gets used to it, we will fly south to shoot the subsequent plots, and Lao Qi will be able to bring the storyboard script to the top. "
Wei Xun said: "For the next six months or so, my task is to do my best to complete these two films. But in a few months, I will have a lawsuit with Tianguang. I can't stay out of the public eye for too long. You can help me contact a file." Variety shows don't need to be very popular, it's better to find programs related to the film industry with a good reputation."
Mao Bin replied: "It's a bit hard to find, but I will pay attention to it. Now the reviews about you on the Internet are getting worse and worse due to the rhythm of Tianguang. Shall we just let it go?"
Wei Xun laughed and said, "Leave it alone? I dragged Guanchi Group and Times Films in and signed them a sky-high guaranteed box office contract. Now it's time for them to contribute."
ps1: Thanks to the big guy 'Favorite Northern Song Dynasty' for the reward, it was a waste of money.
