I'm just telling the artist what's wrong!

Chapter 239 How to get along with friends!
There are many ways to get along with friends, some are as light as water, and some are as thick as fire.

But no matter what it is, it can't compare to the embarrassment of the person caught in the middle when two good friends have conflicts.

Inside the teahouse.

Xu Zheng's words made Zhou Di silent for a few seconds, and his mind quickly recalled his getting along with Wang Baoqiang.

To be honest, based on his understanding of Wang Baoqiang, Wang Baoqiang is not such a penny-pinching person.

From the bottom to the current position step by step, Wang Baoqiang's experience is a milestone in the hearts of all group performers, and it is also the object of admiration for many people.

Whether it is a cooperation with a big name or a newcomer, there has never been any bad public opinion from Wang Baoqiang.

Perhaps it is from the bottom that it is better able to understand the hard work of ordinary people.

Even on the set of "Lost in Thailand", Zhou Di saw Wang Baoqiang treat the extras kindly.

Logically speaking, if it was really what Xu Zheng said, Wang Baoqiang shouldn't have reacted like this.

Because from the description, Wang Baoqiang seems to have become a person who cares about money.

Zhou Di looked at Xu Zheng and found that Xu Zheng was drinking water with his head down.

Psychologically speaking, this is a habitual action to finish telling a lie.

At that moment, Zhou Di couldn't help but argue for Wang Baoqiang.

"Brother Zheng, my relationship with you can be regarded as a friend. I don't think Baoqiang is like that. Do you have something to hide from me?"

Facing Zhou Di's words, Xu Zheng subconsciously wanted to explain, but he couldn't say what he was preparing for Zhou Di's eyes.

Sighed.

"I didn't say something."

"what?"

"Actually, before looking for you this time, I also called Wang Baoqiang. To be precise, I called Wang Baoqiang not long after the end of "囧囧". At that time, I told him that I had plans to prepare the next "囧" system. , when the time comes, continue to invite him to act, and the salary will be doubled from the previous 200 million to 500 million."

When Xu Zheng said this, he paused for a moment, and took a sip of tea.

Zhou Di didn't urge him, just listened quietly.

"Then Baoqiang rejected me. He asked if he could not take the box office, and he invested 1000 million. As long as I gave him 10% of the box office dividend, he would be the same as you."

"No salary, and 1000 million yuan at the same time, 10% of the box office dividend is not too much."

Zhou Di said after listening and calculating in his mind.

Xu Zheng nodded.

"I know I didn't take too much, but Zhou Di, I don't want to agree. The first film was short of funds, so I had no choice but to open the box office for dividends. But now "Lost in Thailand" is so popular that many people came to find it just after filming. I invest in the next one, I have no shortage of funds, and according to my estimation, the box office of my next "囧" system will be at least 20 billion. If it were you, would you exchange 1500 million for 2 million? ?”

Xu Zheng had some personal feelings in these words, and Zhou Di could clearly hear the logic in Xu Zheng's words.

"I have a good relationship with Baoqiang, but business is business. Brothers settle accounts clearly. You understand this, right. I don't want him not to act. I don't think I'm wrong about this matter."

After finishing speaking, Xu Zheng raised his head and drank the tea in his hand.

Zhou Di was silent, he didn't speak.

Originally thought it was just a small conflict between friends, maybe I could help adjust it.

But the conflicts of adults often involve the deepest interests, which are far from being as simple as being robbed of a lollipop as they were when they were young.

Zhou Di didn't know what to do about it.

After a long silence, Zhou Di raised his head and said.

"I see, let's talk about your project this time."

"You don't want to persuade me?"

Xu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and asked back.

Zhou Di smiled.

"You are adults, you can talk, you have emotions, and you are all people who have experienced society and learned to behave in the world. If you have conflicts like this, then I don't think I can resolve this in a few words, so I also I don’t plan to resolve it, but what I want to tell you is that I’m friends with you, but I’m also friends with Baoqiang. I treat both of you equally, and I won’t favor one over the other. I hope you don’t mind that I will associate with him in the future. .”

"Of course, I still understand this truth. Friends are friends, and business is voice. I can tell the difference."

Xu Zheng nodded, and became excited again in the next second.

"In this case, let's take a look at this project."

"Is it "Lost in Thailand"?"

Zhou Di asked subconsciously.

Xu Zheng shook his head.

"No, it's still early. My good friend Ning Hao asked me to do it together. We plan to make a road movie."

"Road movie?"

Zhou Di froze for a moment.

"Yes, from the capital to Dali, driving a car, think about how many stories will happen along the way."

Xu Zheng winked at Zhou Di.

Zhou Di thought for a while, but neither agreed nor refused immediately.

"Please show me the script first."

"Okay, but... I said in advance that I won't give you box office dividends this time. I will pay you according to your market price. But don't worry, this time it's a company invested by the two of us." Really Le Dao "is issued, and at the end of the year you will also have a performance dividend, which can be regarded as a disguised dividend for you."

Xu Zheng seemed afraid that what happened before would happen again.

Zhou Di smiled.

"Everything is easy to talk about, show me the script first."

His character does not value money that much, and he was not a poor person in his previous life.

So in his view, money is enough as long as it is enough.

Besides, with his current savings, he wouldn't be at the point where he would starve to death.

Hearing Zhou Di's words, Xu Zheng nodded contentedly.

He said that he would send the script to Zhou Di when he went back.

Aside from work, the two chatted about something.

While the two were chatting about the mountains, a meeting was being prepared in a meeting room at the Blue Terrace in Hangzhou.

As a free shipping area, the economic strength here has always been relatively strong.

With money in hand, I thought about developing the cultural and entertainment industry.

So in the past few years, Lantai has worked hard to grab the top spot in entertainment from Mangotai.

It just has little effect so far.

There was another "The Voice" that was released before, and it dominated the popularity for a long time, but with the release of "I Am a Singer", the influence of "The Voice" also followed the end of the second season. Gradual heat drop.

Even the number of brands attracted by investment promotion is less than half of that in the second season.

Therefore, Blue TV's current goal is to create another phenomenal variety show.

"I think it's better to change the track instead of trying to find a way in singing variety shows and drafts."

"I think so too, because Mango Taiwan is very mature on these two tracks."

"Then what direction do we go?"

"Actually, I think it can be a reality show."

"reality show?"

"That's right, the reality show in Kimchi Country next door has been popular for many years. Mango TV bought variety show licenses from Kimchi Country, so we can do it too."

"You mean the one with a sticker on the back that you tear off?"

"Yes."
