Wind Rises 2005

Chapter 294: Collect some interest first

Chai Jin didn't come alone. Since he came to sign the investment contract, he naturally brought a lawyer with him.

It's not the first time he's projected a video project, he's already familiar with it.

"President Chai, there is nothing serious about the contract." After carefully reviewing it for half an hour, the lawyer nodded affirmatively at Mr. Chai.

Ma Liang shook his head and said with a smile: "I said earlier that the contract is all right, I really don't believe it!"

"As expected of Brother Ma, since you also study law, I can save my lawyer's fees in the future, hahahaha." Chai Jin replied jokingly.

That's what they said, but neither of them could take it seriously.Ma Liang is a boss, how can he help him as a legal consultant.

So in a friendly atmosphere, Ma Liang, Chai Jin and Zhou Xingchi signed an investment agreement.

Chai Daguan has a dedicated film and television culture investment company, but Ma Liang can only operate with the main body of the company [Gale Capital].

As soon as the contract was signed, Master Xing was most concerned about the issue.

"Mr. Ma, Mr. Chai, when will the first phase of funds be paid?" Zhou Xingchi asked again anxiously.

Ma Liang replied with a smile: "Director Zhou, don't worry, I will definitely transfer you over a year ago."

If it wasn't for the operation of funds, he could send money to Master Xing tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.But now that he has the opportunity to invest in this film and television project, he can't help but be extra careful.

Master Xing's Xinghui Overseas Film Company is registered in Xiangjiang. The film project of "Yangtze River No. [-]" is actually a foreign investment.

Although the investment amount is not large, it is also an opportunity for Ma Liang to legally operate part of the funds, so he must prepare for a while.

Looking back, you can register a few shells in Hong Kong and the Cayman Islands, and use them to dump capital.

So that after the advent of the mobile Internet era, I have made sufficient preparations so that I can go overseas to pick up leaks.

"Thank you, Mr. Ma, for your understanding!" Hearing Ma Liang's promise, Zhou Xingchi was finally relieved.

Anyway, the actual shooting of the movie will have to wait until the next year, and it is still in the stage of crew preparation and actor selection.

After the investment was finalized, Ma Liang pulled Zuo You beside him and asked, "Director Zhou, I wonder if the heroine of this play has been finalized yet?

Our Yuzi is also an actor who came from a major in Shanghai Opera, why don't you teach me a little bit? "

Although he spoke politely, Ma Liang's expression was extremely serious.The meaning is very clear, I just want Zhou Xingchi to save face and designate Zuoyou as a star girl.

"This..." Zhou Xingchi looked embarrassed, what annoyed him the most was the investor's appointment of the heroine.

In the past, many star girls, to be honest, were not in charge of him.Only the last movie "Kung Fu" was the first time Master Xing chose an artist signed by his company.

For the first time, he had the joy of completely controlling the movie, and naturally he didn't want to go back to the past.

Seeing this, Ma Liang hurriedly persuaded: "Director Zhou, in fact, with your talent, it's not the same for all actors.

Even if you want to use artists from your own company, can you guarantee good results?
As far as I know, the last star girl is in a lawsuit with you, it must be a very uncomfortable feeling of being betrayed.

To be honest, although you are a talented director, Zhou Dao, you are not a qualified businessman.

Because you are too focused on the film, other aspects will inevitably be insufficient.

It will be difficult for Xinghui Company to become an existence like Huayi Brothers in at least the next few years, so it will be difficult to retain artists.

Even if you still want to praise your own company's actors, the same thing may not happen.

As long as Director Zhou agrees to use pomelo as the heroine, I can give you a promise today. In the future, as long as it is your film, no matter how much the investment is, I can take it all at once. "

Ma Liang speaks earnestly, presents the facts and makes sense, just to convince Master Xing who is struggling.

The more talented a person is, the more rebellious he is, if he insists on doing it forcefully, he may not be accepted by others.

Don't think that signing the investment agreement will do anything. At worst, Zhou Xingchi will change the main body of the company and start a new one. After all, the initiative is in his hands.

That's why Ma Liang used a star girl to talk about the matter, and the ready-made cases are placed here, which saves him from wasting a lot of saliva.

After all, the heroine Huang Shengyi in the movie "Kung Fu" is a thorn in Zhou Xingchi's heart.

You must know that this newly promoted star girl got a lot of money not long after she became popular, and then started to terminate the contract with Xinghui Company, and the lawsuit has been going on until now.

She was originally a female celebrity whom I strongly admired, but unexpectedly gave him a knife backhand, how could Master Xing feel better.

Ma Liang was also doing it for his own good. You must know that Huang Shengyi was not the first person to betray Master Xing.

Zhang Yuqi, the star girl from the previous life [Yangtze River No. [-]], also broke up with Xinghui Company not long after she became popular.

It's just that Zhang Yuqi is very generous, so he happily paid the liquidated damages.He didn't go to court with Master Xing like Huang Shengyi did.

Instead of cultivating the white-eyed wolf all the time, it's better to agree to Ma Liang happily.

Zhou Xingchi was still struggling. After all, what the other party said was reasonable, and it was difficult for him to make a choice for a while.

"Director Zhou, listen to my advice, as long as there are a few bastards like Wang Sanshi and Yang Juli in this circle, you just make wedding dresses for others.

It's better to agree to Brother Ma's request, and it's the best policy to be safe.

I, Chai, can assure you that Brother Ma is not as shameless as Wang Sanshi, and his promise is definitely good. Seeing this, Chai Jin also helped persuade him.

Zhou Xingchi was silent for another moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay, Mr. Ma is quick to talk, I won't do Tai Chi anymore.

However, there is a request that must be stated in front, otherwise even if Mr. Ma withdraws the capital, I will not agree. "

"What's the request? Director Zhou, please tell me." Ma Liang asked afterward.

Only then did Zhou Xingchi explain: "It's okay to use Ms. Zuo as the heroine, once the film is ready, she must join the team immediately.

During the filming process, no matter what hardships or grievances she suffered in the crew, Mr. Ma, you can't intervene. "

"Don't worry, Director Zhou, I'm not one of those stupid investors.

The crew will always be your greatest, I can 100% guarantee this, and this promise will always be valid. Ma Liang immediately agreed.

Even though he knew Master Xing's nickname of "Studio Tyrant", he would not rashly intervene. .

Professional things are taught to professional people, and he doesn't know anything about making movies. Wouldn't it be a disease of the brain to intervene indiscriminately.

This girl Zuoyou also needs to be trained by a strict director, otherwise how will her acting skills improve.

Only then did Zhou Xingchi nodded in satisfaction: "Very good! Mr. Ma, then wish us a happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!" Ma Liang shook hands with the other party again.

Zuo You also hurriedly stood up and bowed, followed by a thank you: "Thank you Director Zhou! I will definitely work hard."

After chatting for a while, Zhou Xingchi left satisfied with the contract.

Ma Liang frowned at Zuoyou triumphantly, the meaning in his eyes was self-evident: "Look, I didn't lie to you, Star Girl took it down for you.

We are all sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, don't be ignorant, don't make me wait too long! "

Zuoyou couldn't stand the sudden teasing, her little face flushed immediately, her eyes dodged and she didn't dare to respond.

"Brother, there was a dinner at noon, but I still won't take you there.

Lest younger siblings blame me, haha! Chai Jin looked at the two who were eyeing each other, couldn't help but tease, and hurriedly got up to leave.

He is so old that he doesn't want to stay and eat dog food.

Zuo You originally wanted to say goodbye too, but Ma Liang had just helped her win the star girl, so she patted her butt and left now, which was somewhat embarrassing.

She followed Ma Liang back to the room in a daze, and she couldn't help feeling flustered again.

As the saying goes, people are soft-spoken and short-handed. Seeing Ma Liang working so hard to get a role for her just now, it is impossible not to be moved.

But if something happens now, I still resist a little.

Little girl, I have never talked about love, so I have to go through the process and go straight to the topic, and I will inevitably be afraid in my heart.

Just when Zuoyou was feeling uneasy, her cell phone rang.As if seeing a life-saving straw, she immediately picked it up.

"Yuzi, you guys are pretty tired, hurry up and meet up, we have to catch the plane back to Donghai in the afternoon." The person on the other end of the phone who asked was none other than Senior Sister Jiang Shuying.

If Zuoyou was granted amnesty, he quickly responded: "Okay, I'll go back right away."

After hanging up the phone, she felt guilty.

"You're leaving now?" Ma Liang glared at her pretending to be dissatisfied.

Zuo You nodded, and tentatively said: "Senior brothers and sisters are waiting for me, we will take a plane back to Donghai in the afternoon.

Then. Then. I'm leaving? "

As he spoke, he moved his footsteps outside.

It's just that the little happiness and playfulness that flashed across her eyes were quickly captured by Ma Liang.

He quickly walked up to Zuoyou, stuck his whole body on it, and pulled Xiaonizi into his arms.

With a smirk like this, he kept staring at Zuo You, until she felt hairy all over.Regardless of the trembling of the person in his arms, he suddenly kissed him.

This kiss has been owed since last night, and people don't allow it to be eaten, so why not charge some interest first?
