The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 168 Chapter 160
"TVB and Fenghua Film and Television have reached a cooperation agreement, and the two parties will work together on "The Lord's Sun"."

"TVB purchased three works of Fenghua Film and Television Company, with fifteen and one episodes."

"Run Run Shaw: Lee Sing Yew is outstanding. When I saw him, it was as if I saw me 60 years ago."

"Lee Sing Yew: Our cooperation with TVB will last for a very long time. We will make progress and develop together. In the future, our co-produced dramas will not only have actors from Hong Kong Island, but also many mainland actors."

"Fenghua Film and Television has a dual strategy of Mainland, Hong Kong and Island. He is the production company with the most strategic vision in the Mainland."

"Xinhua News Agency: Cultural exchanges between Mainland and Hong Kong Island are very important. This is a great progress."

TVB purchased three dramas from Fenghua Film and Television Company, which was even more sensational than ATV's purchase of dramas before.

After all, ATV is in such a bad state, it is difficult to make money to produce self-produced dramas, they can only buy TV dramas.

TVB is different, they are the only one in Hong Kong Island, and now they have money, TVB's annual profit is more than 3 million, which is more profitable than many listed companies.

But in the face of Fenghua drama, they still have to take the initiative to buy it, so as not to be bought by competitors and affect the ratings.

The cooperation between TVB and Fenghua Film and Television Company makes people feel that Lee Shengyao is about to go to heaven.

It is not enough to have three satellite TV stations in the mainland, and there is also a TVB on Hong Kong Island.

The radiation of TVB is not comparable to that of ordinary TV stations. Not only parts of Guangdong Province, but also Hong Kong, Macau, Wanwan, Southeast Asia, and even Australia can watch TVB.

This means that Fenghua Film and Television Company has another powerful partner.

And the stars in the entertainment circle, what they saw more was the popularity of Fenghua dramas.

This means that acting in a Fenghua drama can not only spread in the mainland, but also spread in Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Southeast Asia. To a certain extent, it can be regarded as having overseas influence. It is not too much to say "international superstar".

At least when talking about advertising endorsements, you should be able to get tens of thousands more.

More stars are staring at the co-produced and self-produced dramas of Fenghua Film and Television Company.

Many people are looking forward to Shonan Satellite TV, Gusu Satellite TV, and Shanghai City Satellite TV rushing to shoot and start the next drama quickly, and they will compete for it when the time comes.

At this time, Li Shengyao met a colleague from Yangcheng. This person was in his thirties, average height, average appearance, and thick lips. He seemed to be an honest person. His name was Jiang Ming, and he was the manager of the Yangcheng Oriental Pearl Culture Company. .

A careful review of the resumes of Deng Chao and Hao Lei reveals that the Yangcheng Oriental Pearl Culture Company was the first brokerage company signed by the two of them.

This company is actually quite powerful, and "Young Emperor" is their main investment.

Li Shengyao contacted Jiang Ming because of Hao Lei's agency appointment.

In his previous life, "Dae Jang Geum" was sold in more than [-] countries. Like Bae Yong Joon, Lee Young Ae acted in a movie in the next few years, and shot commercials all over the world during the rest of the time.

He plans to sign Hao Lei, and then let him, like Zhao Yang, wait for "Da Shang Palace" to be sold, and make commercials all over the world.

However, before Hao Lei acted in "The Great Shang Palace", he was approached by endorsements and had already started to make money. Naturally, the Yangcheng Oriental Pearl Culture Company would not easily give up to Li Shengyao.

He needs to figure something out.

In fact, he can directly pay liquidated damages, but he is not the kind of person who will do things to the extreme, and they can win-win.

"Director Li, I know you like Hao Lei very much, but you have also seen that our company has devoted a lot of effort to her. We are not as big as the Fenghua family. It is difficult for us."

Jiang Ming's Mandarin is not very standard, he speaks very slowly, fearing that Li Shengyao will not understand.

"Director Li, if you give us 500 million, I will transfer Hao Lei's management contract to you. She has signed a contract for eight years, and there are still six years left. Seventy-three percent, you will definitely earn something."

Now the outside world generally believes that if Hao Lei plays "Da Shang Gong", he should be able to reach the level of Yan Danchen, that is, in the second-tier mainland, and then there are a large number of advertising endorsements overseas, so it is no problem to earn 1000 million for the company.

Li Shengyao shook his head, "Boss Jiang, have you seen the reports outside that Hao Lei can often go overseas to shoot commercials like Yan Danchen?"

"Can't you?"

"No, Yan Danchen relied on "Love Hotel" and "Winter Sonata" to go out. These two are idol dramas, and many of the commercials she shot are from the island country."

Li Shengyao smiled and said slowly: "Look, I don't make idol dramas anymore. My fourth drama is a criminal investigation drama, and "Da Shang Palace" is not an idol drama, but a costume drama. To be honest, this drama I use this drama to compete for awards, and I don’t expect the overseas market of this drama at all, it is very difficult for islanders to like this drama.”

"Don't think too much about Hao Lei. In her situation, unless a miracle happens, she won't be as popular as Yan Danchen."

Hearing this, Jiang Ming hesitated a little, but he quickly realized that if Hao Lei couldn't make money, why did Li Shengyao change his management contract?
"Director Li, why do you want Hao Lei?"

"I like her."

This reason is straightforward and correct.

Hao Lei is indeed very beautiful, and Jiang Ming likes it very much.

He thought for a while, "Director Li, after all, there is still a six-year contract, if it is less than 500 million, then we are at a loss."

Li Shengyao smiled, and ordered the table, "Boss Jiang, take a closer look, I can help you train another more profitable actress."

"Director Li means..."

"As long as you are ready, and the heroine of the next co-production drama uses your people, I guarantee that it will be popular, just like Sun Li."

"Is it an idol drama?"

"Of course it's an idol drama. My collaborations with them are all idol dramas."

Hearing this, Jiang Ming was a little moved.

Hao Lei is a person with great talent, good looks, and good figure, but his temper is not very good, and he has his own ideas.

A colleague in the company said that Hao Lei wanted to start his own company in the future, and be a producer and director himself.

The company has a hard time controlling her, and when signing the contract, the contract clearly states that she has the autonomy to act in any drama, and she has always wanted to act in a literary film.

With the current size and status of Fenghua Film and Television Company, Li Shengyao hinted a few words, or directly gave 500 million termination fee, which would be more convenient.

Now that Li Shengyao is still willing to talk to him, it is actually considered as Li Shengyao's character online.

After Jiang Ming thought for a while, "Director Li, I agree with our deal, but I still have to explain something to the company. You can give me some money."

"100 million, I will give you 100 million, and then I will give you the heroine of the co-produced drama and write it into the contract."

"Okay, I agree."

Li Shengyao breathed a sigh of relief, that is, "Winter Sonata" and "Dae Jang Geum" have this charm, and other dramas are much worse.

I hope that "Da Shang Gong" can sell more than [-] Guo Jia like "Da Jang Geum", otherwise he will lose money.
