China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 442 440. Bullying Sissi for being young?

Before the Spring Festival, "Myth" was broadcast on CCTV and received rave reviews.

In particular, the innocent relationship between Meng Yi and Su Su moved countless people, and Brother Hu also directly became a first-line star through this drama.

Taking advantage of this trend, "Sword and Sword III" premiered on Lychee Channel in early March.

The special effects that are comparable to movies, the stunning appearance of the three beauties, the novel plot, and humorous lines made this drama the ratings champion in March.

"That Liu Shishi is so beautiful, Yang Mi is also good-looking, and that Zhang Tiannai, they are all beauties, my eyes are dazzled by them."

"The magic special effects are so beautiful. What kind of magical special effects are these? The places like Shushan, Tianjie, and Fengdu are so realistic. Who else can fly with a sword just like the real thing?"

"You don't understand. Didn't you see that the special effects were produced by an American company?"

"No wonder, if the special effects of domestic fairy tale dramas in the future are so good, the audience will be happy."

"Feiyu is willing to spend money, which is really the conscience of the industry."

……

Whether they are gamers or ordinary viewers, they all have nothing but praise for this show.

Although Feiyu Entertainment spent more than 10 million US dollars on special effects, the first round of broadcast rights was 1.3 million for one episode and 1 million for the second round. However, after the first broadcast, the second round soon Three TV stations snatched it away, and in the third round, it was won by four TV stations for 800,000 yuan.

This achievement made Huayi envious, but there was nothing she could do about it.

Feiyu Entertainment.

Cao Yu looked at the comments and hoped that his efforts would not be in vain. At least future Chinese fairy tale dramas would not fool the audience.

Before his rebirth, all those fairy tale dramas had turned into stinky shit, with over-the-top acting, perfunctory special effects, and no redeeming features except clarity.

"The Storm" more than 20 years ago could beat them.

"After filming "Fairy Sword 3", what will you choose as the next fairy tale drama?"

Just as he was thinking about it, the secretary came in with a folder and asked Cao Yu for instructions.

""Northern Love" can be broadcast on May Day. The price of this modern drama is only 500,000 yuan per episode. "Love Apartment" will be broadcast during the summer vacation. The target audience of this drama is students."

"Ning Hao is filming at a pretty good pace now, and "The Man on the Road" is almost finished."

"Why is it that the premiere box office of "Orphans" was only over 15 million? Is Liu Tianwang so unpopular?"

There were too many blockbusters at the end of last year. Feiyu's another movie last year about child abduction, "The Lost Orphan", had its premiere until March 09. Cao Yu also wanted to avoid the box office war in the second half of the year.

Unexpectedly, after the premiere, the box office was much lower than Cao Yu expected. He actually hoped that more people would see this film.

"It may be that the Chinese New Year has just ended and everyone is busy with work, but the reputation and reviews of this movie online are quite good. It should be better in two days."

Secretary Xiao Wu explained and took out another document: "Boss, this is to arrange the 50 million order for Crystal Studio. Please sign."

After Cao Yu signed his name, he suddenly remembered something and stood up to leave.

"Boss, wait a minute."

"how?"

"Boss, Pang Yuanying told you that we are getting married on National Day this year. As a secretary, aren't you planning to find someone else?"

"Oh"

Only then did Cao Yu remember that Pang Yuan had indeed said that he had never decided on the candidate to take over Xiao Wu's job.

"There are still a few months left. When I find someone, I will transfer you to another position."

After Cao Yu finished speaking, he left the office and came to the crystal studio, where he saw Liu Yifei busy inside.

"Tired?"

Cao Yu walked over and asked with a smile: "The 50 million will be transferred to you today. How is the script prepared?"

"Aren't you busy?"

Seeing it was Cao Yu, Liu Yifei's face was immediately filled with smiles: "The script for the TV series is still being written, and it will probably take a while, but Xu Jinglei and I met once. Her movie script is not very good, so I plan to do it tomorrow. Signed the contract with her."

"Show me the contract."

Cao Yu pulled up a stool and sat down, picking up the contract handed over by Liu Yifei.

The contract is very detailed. Crystal Studio is responsible for the full investment of 20 million, and the box office share above is also divided into several levels.

If the box office is less than 2 million, screenwriter, director and starring Xu Jinglei only needs 5% of the box office. If the box office is 10 million, he will get % of the box office. If it exceeds million, he will get % of the box office.

"Is this Xu Jinglei bullying my Cici because she is young?"

After Cao Yu saw this box office share, he really wanted to blow the little girl's head off.

Although the contract seems fine on the surface and the higher the box office, the more everyone makes, it is actually very unfair to Crystal Studio.

Cao Yu knows very well that this movie will definitely be worth hundreds of millions. Xu Jinglei will directly take away more than 10 million by then, while Crystal Studio will earn more than 30 million as an investment talent. After deducting the cost of 20 million, there will be only one left. Profit of tens of millions.

"But you can't blame her. Sissi is only in her early twenties. Xu Jinglei has been in the entertainment industry for many years. If he dares to sign this contract with me, I will scold her to death! But you dare to bully my woman , let you also suffer some losses!"

Cao Yu thought while looking at Liu Yifei. This girl seemed to have been controlled by her mother since she was a child and was not sensitive to numbers at all.

Liu Yifei was a little embarrassed to be looked at: "Brother Cao Yu, why are you looking at me like this? Is there something wrong with the contract?"

"It's not a big problem."

Cao Yu nodded and said with a smile: "However, you can talk to her tomorrow and ask if you can sign a guarantee agreement. The box office will be 5 million as the guarantee. No matter how much the final box office is, she will be divided according to million. %, we bear the risk ourselves!"

"Brother Cao Yu, is this okay? What if the box office is not good? After all, Xu Jinglei is a new director."

Liu Yifei was a little worried and felt that this was a bit risky.

"Don't worry, listen to me."

Cao Yu is quite confident about this movie and believes that Xu Jinglei will not disregard his own reputation and shoot it randomly. "Okay, then I'll talk to her tomorrow."

"If she doesn't agree to guarantee the minimum share of the box office share of more than 8 million, she will try to reduce it to %."

After talking about the box office, Cao Yu added, "Also, let Li Xiaojie star in the rose in the script. The rest doesn't matter."

"Little sister? I haven't seen her for a long time. What has she been doing recently?"

Hearing Li Xiaoshuo, Liu Yifei remembered that the woman was also an artist in the company, but she rarely saw her recently.

"She's a bit busy, so she comes over occasionally."

Cao Yu smiled in his heart: "You are busy taking care of my child."

The next day, Liu Yifei signed the contract and immediately came to Cao Yu's office.

"Brother Cao Yu, Xu Jinglei has agreed to a guarantee of 80 million."

As soon as they met, the little girl handed the final contract to Cao Yu.

"Just agree. You'd better find someone powerful to handle the budget."

Cao Yu chuckled, and when the time comes, if he promotes his business, he will definitely make a lot of money for Crystal Studio.

"understood!"

The little girl sat directly on Cao Yu's lap, hooked her arms around Cao Yu's neck, and said coquettishly: "I'm still working on the novel "The Ups and Downs of Wei Young". Can you help me give this drama a name?"

Cao Yu hugged the little girl's slim waist, pretended to think about it for a moment, and said, "Let's call it "Beauty's Scheming"."

"Beautiful scheming? What a good name!"

Liu Yifei immediately gave her a sweet kiss, and then said: "There are many female characters in this movie. When choosing actors, you can help me check them."

"No problem. You try to finish the script in the first half of the year and prepare for filming in the second half of the year. Auntie will be back by then and can help you."

Regarding the last contract, Cao Yu felt that this girl really needed a smart person around her, and Aunt Liu was just the right person.

Just in the second half of the year, "A Dream of Red Mansions" will be completed.

As for casting, first of all, the original Lin Xinru couldn't be used because he didn't like this woman.

After finishing his work at the company, Cao Yu called the Indian side. The filming of "Slumdog Millionaire" was almost complete and would be completed within a month.

"I don't know how Disha Patani performed. I happened to go and see her when the filming was wrapping up."

Cao Yu really misses this Indian girl who is a bit innocent, dares to love and hate, and has a personality a bit like Liu Yifei.

It is now the end of March. Cao Yu took out a small notebook and wrote down his trip to India.

Reviewed what happened before again.

"Since "Into the Dust" started filming in early April, I won't go. It's too far. I'll tell Director Zhang."

"Building a shit-picking boy will be completed this year."

"Sign Chen Chusheng."

"After attending Brother Dong's wedding in May, I will also go to Korea to help T-ARA and the others prepare new songs. I will also prepare to co-shoot "My Love from the Star" and the movie "Strange Her" with CJ Entertainment."

"In June, 'Despicable Me' comes out, and in July 'Avatar' comes out."

Cao Yu closed his notebook and leaned back on his chair: "Pang Yuan and Xiao Wu Guoqing are getting married. Finding a new secretary must be on the agenda. Song Qian? Or Jiang Shuying, who plays Ping'er from the crew of "A Dream of Red Mansions"?"

After thinking about it, I feel that Jiang Shuying does feel a bit like a working woman, and her academic qualifications are not bad, but I don't know if she is willing?

After pondering for a while, he felt that he could put aside the matters in the second half of the year and asked his secretary to call the manager of the brokerage department over.

"Manager Liu, Yi Yang Qianqian has been signed. Have you found the other two boys?"

"The people at Shancheng said they haven't found it yet."

Manager Liu carefully replied: "However, we have searched more than a hundred primary schools, and we should have results soon."

Cao Yu immediately said angrily: "How do you do things? Just ask the education department and check in the education system!"

"Ah? Boss, I'm afraid this won't be easy."

"Give them a letter of introduction to the company and go to the district education bureau to check. It's faster than finding a needle in a haystack like you, right?"

Cao Yu shook his head angrily: "If you invite the leader to a meal again and express your gratitude, it will be done. Do you still need me to teach you this?"

"I'll make arrangements right away."

The department manager glanced at the boss with some admiration and said to himself: "In the past, we were looking for college students, but now we are looking for elementary school students. We have no experience, but the boss has a lot of ideas."

What he doesn't know is that the boss learned these methods from Han Bang, who likes to sign children the most.

"How is Chen Chusheng?"

"It's about to enter the litigation process."

"Contact him and ask him to come to the company tomorrow. I will meet this person."

After arranging these things, Cao Yu looked at the time and found that it was still early, so he drove to the racecourse under construction to have a look.

He had already bought several good horses through some channels, and he happened to come over to inspect them while there was nothing wrong.

When he arrived at the horse breeding area, he suddenly found a middle-aged man smoking a cigarette standing on the roadside, followed by a fat boy in his teens.

"Aren't these Uncle Qian and Dalinzi drinking, smoking, and perming their hair?"
