China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 155 Obsession [23]

Out of confidence in Gao Fei, when Han Li was negotiating with Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, she originally wanted to sign a gambling agreement.

That is: if the ratings of "Longing for the End of the World" reach their agreed baseline, then Xiong'an Entertainment, the program producer, can enjoy a part of the advertising revenue.

For this reason, before negotiating with the people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, Han Li was even mentally prepared for their harsh demands.

But I didn't expect that when Han Li mentioned the gambling agreement, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV didn't even bother to talk about it, and directly and firmly stated that they would never consider this kind of cooperation.

Seeing this situation, Han Li had no choice but to give up.

And then during the negotiation process, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV's attempt to lower the price also hit Han Li badly.

It's a trade-off.

But despite this, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV did not give up.

After all, they have already watched the finished film, so the TV station is actually quite optimistic about this program.

But when the negotiation reached an impasse, the news that "Search" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival suddenly spread.

So taking this opportunity, Han Li immediately pursued the victory.

Seeing this situation, the people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV finally agreed to Han Li's price after thinking for a while.

……

In the backyard study.

I saw Han Li quickly put a contract in front of Gao Fei, and then said with a smile on the corner of her mouth:

"We have already negotiated with them. The three episodes of the first season have been sold at a package price of 1000 million yuan."

"If we continue to cooperate in the later stage, then we will settle at a price of 500 million yuan per issue. Of course, this is only a preliminary agreement, and everything will be confirmed after the show is released."

Hearing this, Gao Fei immediately nodded in satisfaction and said:
"Yes, it seems that this program alone will be enough for Xiong'an Racecourse to operate for 50 years!"

Seeing that Gao Fei was so confident, Han Li didn't say anything more.

Then I saw her turn and pull out a folder and hand it to Gao Fei.

"Boss, this is an invitation I received after the news that "Search" was shortlisted for the main competition in Cannes, how do you think about it?"

Seeing what she said, Gao Fei immediately flipped through it curiously, and then couldn't help being surprised and said:

"Ning Hao clearly said that this year's Cannes Film Festival, only our family entered the main competition in China, why are there so many Chinese-language films now?"

Hearing this, Han Li couldn't help chuckling immediately and said:

"The Cannes Film Festival does not only have the main competition section. Besides, even if they can't participate in the selection, they can still sell films!"

Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help examining it curiously.

As a result, I really don’t know if I don’t see it, and I was shocked when I saw it.

This is the first time Gao Fei knows that the Cannes Film Festival still has the term "watching films".

Naturally, this kind of "watching film" cannot be compared with the films in the main competition unit.

And compared with the movies that usually go to the Cannes Film Market to sell films.

The only advantage of "viewing film" is that it is selected by the film festival and can be advertised and promoted for free.

Simply put, it saves booth fees.

"Underworld 2" filmed by Du Qifeng, and the curved film "Strange Silk", belong to the viewing films of this Cannes Film Festival.

Of course, they are not the only Chinese films at the Cannes Film Festival this time.

For example, "Summer in Jiangcheng", directed by mainland director Wang Chao, was shortlisted for the "A Kind of Concern" unit.

As for the Xiangjiang ghost film "Ghost Land" starring Li Xinjie, it was selected as the closing film of the "Un Certain Regard" unit.

It's just... Gao Fei received an invitation that didn't belong to any of the above movies.

I saw Han Li flipping through the memo and saying:
“这次的戛纳电影节，预计会从2006年5月18日开始，到5月29日正式结束。”

"Huayi Brothers is planning to hold a large reception for "The Banquet" on the beach in Cannes on the evening of May 5."

"According to the information provided by Huayi, Huayi's President Wang Zhonglei, Media Asia CEO Lin Jianyue, director Feng Dagang, leading actors Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Wu Yanzu and others will all make an appearance."

"Huayi hopes that you, boss, can bring the crew of "Search" to join us."

Having said that, Han Li paused immediately.

After Gao Fei nodded slightly, she just ticked off the memo.

Then Han Li went on to say in an orderly manner:
"Invested by Shanghai Film Studio and directed by Ye Weixin, the movie "Dragon Tiger Gate" is also planning to hold a cocktail party in Cannes on the night of May 5."

"The producer of "Dragon and Tiger Gate" has also sent out an invitation, and I hope that you, the boss, will be able to attend."

Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help shaking his head helplessly.

To be honest, he didn't really want to attend this kind of reception.

But there is a saying that is good: Brothers fight against the wall, and outsiders resist their insults.

So even though Gao Fei has never had a good impression of Huayi Brothers, he is not very familiar with the group of "Dragon Tiger Gate".

But Gao Fei, who was away from home and was also from China, felt that he should help if he could help.

Maybe his meager strength is useless, but it is good that Gao Fei can maintain this atmosphere.

So after thinking about it for a while, Gao Fei still asked Han Li to agree.

……

March 5, 17 am.

After meeting Wang Jing, the crew of "Search" boarded the flight to Cannes directly.

However, compared with before, there is one less member of the main creative team.

On the plane, Ning Hao shook his head helplessly and said:
"I can't help it, Brother Fei is almost bewildered because of that story."

"Since the filming of "Search" was completed last time, she turned down all the film appointments and devoted herself to the preparation of her film."

"Let's not talk about Cannes at this time, it is estimated that the Oscars will not be able to snatch her away."

After all, Ning Hao couldn't help sighing again.

Although Yu Feihong had already left the job when Ning Hao was admitted to Beijing Film Academy, this did not prevent him from regarding Yu Feihong as the goddess of his dreams.

Therefore, he still settled some of Yu Feihong's personal matters.

After Gao Fei listened to Ning Hao's nagging.

Only then did I know that Yu Feihong had already bought the novel "Ginkgo!ginkgo! " right of adaptation.

Later, while acting, it took nearly four years to adapt the novel into a movie script "Love Has an Afterlife".

It can be said that Yu Feihong has been planning for this "Love Has an Afterlife" for ten years.

When Gao Fei heard this, he immediately understood why Yu Feihong didn't even bother to pay attention to the Cannes Film Festival.

It's just that although he respects Yu Feihong's choice, but out of an actor's intuition, he still feels that Yu Feihong's directorial debut may hit the street.

After all, for a movie, the longer the preparation time, the better.

Sometimes even the longer the preparation time, it will have a negative impact on the film.

So when Ning Hao said that Yu Feihong had been planning for ten years, Gao Fei felt that this beautiful Yu Jie might be sad soon.

It's just that the mountains are high and the waters are far away, and Gao Fei is still not easy to interfere in Yu Feihong's personal life after all.

And based on his understanding of Yu Feihong, in his current state, he might not be able to listen to any advice.

Thinking of this, Gao Fei no longer struggled.

And after more than ten hours of flying, when the crew of "Search" walked out of Nice Airport, all kinds of colorful giant movie posters were everywhere.

This makes Cannes, an ordinary seaside town, suddenly become full of vitality and vitality...
