The world of film and television starts from the flow of money

Chapter 230: Living together (cash out)
Running account restaurant.

Yi Huawei held up his chin and looked at the script in his hand without saying anything. After a while, he said, "Shu Ci, have you ever thought about adapting this into a film and television script?"

"Film and TV script?"

Li Shuci put down the cup in his hand, raised his eyebrows, and hesitated: "No!...What do you mean?"

"Yes. Shuci, have you ever thought about what you will do in the future?" Yi Huawei nodded: "Or what industry do you want to work in after graduation?"

"...We are only sophomores now. Isn't it a little too early to say this?"

Yi Huawei's topic jumped too much, and Li Shuci didn't understand it.

“The employment options in our current major are quite selective.”

Yi Huawei smiled and explained:

“Graduates from our department generally go to advertising companies, film and television drama production companies, news media, newspapers and magazines, publishing houses, wedding photo studios, cultural publicity departments and other related institutions.

Or engage in photography, film and television production, computer graphic design, advertising planning and production, cultural publicity, social education, commercial photography, etc.

We are now in our sophomore year, and we will have to find an internship unit in the second half of next year. We still have more than a year before we are fully satisfied.Therefore, it is not too early to consider which direction to develop.

Your personality is still too introverted and suitable for doing some behind-the-scenes work.Moreover, you are talented in text creation and are interested in this, so I think you can try to develop in this area.

Of course, this is just my suggestion, and it is still based on your thoughts. "

"Can I do it?" Li Shuci was a little unsure: "There is a big difference between stage dramas and film and television dramas, and the techniques of expression are completely different..."

"Your stage script teacher has praised me several times," Yi Huawei smiled: "It's pretty much the same. Just think about the lines a little more and enrich the characters, plot, and content.

Think about it, when the characters you write appear on the stage, only a few people can see your work, but if it appears on the screen or on the screen, more audiences can share the joy and sorrow with it. This is not the same. Is it a very fulfilling thing? "

"Is it the same as the last DV?"

Li Shuci remembered the feeling he had when he last watched the DV work he shot, and suddenly felt a little moved.

"Yes. Teacher Ye also praised your talent. Believe in yourself and there will be no problem." Yi Huawei encouraged: "Anyway, you have almost learned the professional courses now. It is time to practice what you have learned. Take the time to write the script Once it’s corrected, let’s use the summer vacation to film it.”

"Is it just us?" Li Shuci thought about it and hesitated for a while.What are two people filming?Shooting a MV?
"Of course not," Yi Huawei smiled: "I know that a friend of my uncle has a film and television company. Although it is not large, it still has a lot of talents. There are professional directors and set managers. We can also call Lu Qiaochuan They're together."

"It's not good to bother uncle like this all the time, right?" Li Shuci hesitated.

"Don't worry, one code will be one code, and we will pay them the labor fee and equipment rental fee." Yi Huawei smiled: "Of course, they can convert it into investment if they are willing."

"This money is not a small amount." Li Shuci hesitated: "Will my parents agree?"

"I have money myself." Yi Huawei took out his phone and slid out the interface and handed it to Li Shuci.

"what!!?"

Li Shuci's eyes widened immediately after he took the phone. He counted it twice carefully before confirming that the balance displayed on it was seven digits. He raised his head and looked at Yi Huawei in surprise and said:

"Where did you get so much money?"

"I made some money from stock trading, and the funds I invested in made good returns," Yi Huawei said with a smile. "So, it's okay to make a few short films or low-cost movies."

"Well, let's forget it." Although Li Shuci was quite moved, he still shook his head: "If you can't sell it..."

Let’s not talk about the cost issue. Although making a movie is a low-budget movie, the difficulty and cost of making a DV are not the same.Although Li Shuci doesn't know how to run a film.But knowing that there was a high possibility that he would lose all his money, Li Shuci did not want to waste money.

"If it doesn't sell, it won't sell." Yi Huawei smiled: "If it doesn't sell, it's okay to keep it as a souvenir. Anyway, the protagonists of your script are the two of us."

After thinking for a moment, Li Shuci shook his head: "Let's forget it, I...,"

"That's it, you take the time to polish the script." Yi Huawei couldn't tolerate Li Shuci's refusal and said decisively: "I'll do the preparations, and we'll start shooting when the summer vacation comes. Okay, let's eat."

Yi Huawei suddenly had a whim. He didn't expect to make money by making movies. In his opinion, there are many ways to make money. Making movies is too slow to make money. He also didn't want to plagiarize the scripts of later generations. Who knows if he would crash.

He proposed to make this movie, firstly, to leave a souvenir for the two of them, and secondly, because he always felt unconfident after watching Li Shuci.He wanted Li Shuci to gradually build up his self-confidence by doing what he was good at.

Speaking of which, Yi Huawei was also puzzled. His father-in-law and mother-in-law were very open-minded and caring for Li Shuci. He didn't know where Li Shuci's inexplicable inferiority complex came from.

"Oh~,"

Seeing that Yi Huawei had made up his mind, Li Shuci was moved but also a little nervous. He frowned, pursed his lips, lowered his head and opened the script again and began to think about it.

While the two were eating, Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan walked into the restaurant.Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan also saw Yi Huawei and walked over to say hello.

Lu Qiaochuan said with a smile: "Are you two dating here again?"

"Squad leader!"

Li Shuci said hello and then lowered his head to read the script.

"Yes."

Yi Huawei smiled, then became curious: "Why are there just the two of you? Where is Zhong Bai?"

"Oh~, Mr. Ren has something up his sleeve and doesn't dare to let Zhong Bai follow him. Don't tell Zhong Bai for a while. You must never tell Zhong Bai."

Lu Qiaochuan glanced at Ren Yifan, repeated twice with an emphasis, and said with a smile: "We are waiting for someone here. Mr. Ren's ex-girlfriend, our high school classmate, is also Zhong Bai's nemesis."

"Oh, I will tell you, Brother Zhong." Yi Huawei nodded clearly: "Then why are you here?"

"Mr. Ren is afraid that his Taoist mentality is unstable and he cannot resist temptation," Lu Qiaochuan said with a smile: "You called me to come with him because he wanted to give him a slap in the head when he wavered."

"You! I'm just here to catch up on old times, okay?!"

Ren Yifan glared at Lu Qiaochuan, nodded to Yi Huawei, and the two of them sat down at a table nearby.

Just as several people were chatting, the sound of high heels hitting the floor came from the door, and several people looked up.

I saw a woman at the door wearing a deep V tight-fitting black dress, with long hair shawl, and skin as white as milk. The tight skirt made her wavy figure look particularly stunning and slowly walked over. In front of Lu Qiaochuan, Ren Yifan and the others He stopped in front of his position, raised his hand, and said with a sweet smile:

"Hi, Qiaochuan..., Hi!...Yifan. Hehehe~"

Obviously, this woman was the one Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan were waiting for. However, Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan were obviously dumbfounded. Their eyes were full of half-hidden spring sunshine, and they were a little dazed for a moment.

The woman slowly sat down opposite the two of them, her sexy red lips parted slightly: "Long time no see, you two haven't changed at all. Hehehe~"

This delicate and slightly artificial laughter brought Li Shuci out of his thoughts. When he looked up, he was amazed by the woman.He had to admit that this woman was unmatched by him and the four girls in his class in terms of appearance, figure, and femininity. Turning his head, he happened to see Yi Huawei's half-smiling eyes. Li Shuci felt a little annoyed and said angrily: "Does it look good?"

"Yes," Yi Huawei nodded. She was indeed beautiful. If she were to play Xu Lianqiao, he might not be able to resist it. "You, you are not allowed to look at her!" Li Shu's words were filled with jealousy.

"Okay, okay, I won't look at her."

Yi Huawei smiled and turned away. Then he changed his mind and whispered a few words into Li Shuci's ear.

"it's not good?"

Li Shuci couldn't help but hesitate for a while after listening to Yi Huawei's words, but seeing Lu Qiaochuan and Ren Yifan looking like pig brothers, with their eyes looking like they were stuck in a deep ditch and unable to pull them out, he immediately nodded and took out his mobile phone. Zhong Bai sent a message.

Then, the two of them remained silent in tacit agreement and listened to the conversation between several people.

The result was beyond Li Shuci's expectation. Not only Lu Qiaochuan, but also that lecherous scumbag Ren Yifan withstood Hee Hee's temptation. He even fell out with her when he heard her saying bad things about Zhong Bai. In the end, Hee Hee Xi was scared away, and Zhong Bai, who came in a hurry, missed him.

The next night.

The two dormitories who hadn't had a meal together for a long time got together. However, today's gathering was not for dinner. There was only a glass of water in front of everyone, and sitting in the middle was Ren Yifan, who was crossing his legs and pointing his nostrils at everyone. , as if in debt.

"what is this?"

In the corner, Li Shuci looked at the project book in his hand and looked at Yi Huawei beside him with confusion.

"The business plan for college students." Yi Huawei dusted off the paper.

Li Shuci nodded, pointed at Ren Yifan, and whispered: "I mean, why did he ask us to come here?"

"Come up with some ideas." Yi Huawei smiled, turned to look at Ren Yifan and said, "3 yuan? Are you calling us here to cash in and treat us?"

"Call Mr. Ren!" Zhong Bai stopped Yi Huawei's "rudeness", squeezed out a flattering smile, and said to Ren Yifan: "Mr. Ren, they have basically finished reading. You can speak now."

"Come on, everyone welcomes Mr. Ren to say a few words to us." Lu Qiaochuan immediately made a dog-legged posture and began to applaud.

A group of people were not very enthusiastic. They quietly watched the performance of these three idiots. They took a few claps to express their appreciation and then stopped applauding.

"The watch you have is to prove that the source of my money is legal." Ren Yifan glanced at the two of them and said pretentiously: "Because some ordinary people will inevitably question me about robbing a bank."

"That's what Mr. Ren taught!"

Lu Qiaochuan looked helpless at Ren Yifan who seemed to be in a drama.

Zhong Bai gritted his teeth and his voice came out from between his teeth: "That's almost it. Don't push your nose and face."

"The distant relative you just mentioned who took many detours," Xu Lianqiao said, "Why did he give you this project?"

"Because I helped his son successfully pass the art exam, firstly, to thank him; secondly, he saw that I am talented and talented, and that I..." Ren Yifan began to boast proudly.

Zhong Bai interrupted Ren Yifan's bragging: "I helped his son pass the art exam, okay?"

As he said that, he turned to look at everyone: "So I am one of your major shareholders."

"This is not money that can be spent casually."

Ren Yifan said: "It belongs to a college student entrepreneurship fund project of the company. My relative approved 3 yuan for me to start some college student entrepreneurship. It requires project establishment and regular reporting, but at the same time, he told me in a very subtle way It doesn’t matter to me whether I succeed or fail.”

"It's just money laundering!" Bi Shisan said calmly.

Lin Luoxue smiled and said, "Then what's your plan for coming to us?"

Ren Yifan finally stated the purpose of today: "Think about what you can do? Go through the process and get the money out."

Lu Qiaochuan said hurriedly: "Mr. Ren, don't give up on my idea."

Zhong Bai then said:
"Haha~, don't forget my proposal either!"

Looking at the confused people, Ren Yifan said with a look of disgust: "Mr. Lu thinks we should open a bookstore, and Brother Zhong thinks we should open a pet store."

Li Shuci smiled slightly and said: "The pet shop and bookstore are both very good!"

Ren Yifan looked at the naive Li Shuci and explained helplessly: "The bookstore and pet shop are just to satisfy their respective desires. We can only do business near the school."

He turned to look at Zhong Bai: "Who are you selling animals to? Lou Ma will find out and throw them out for you in a minute." Then he turned to look at Lu Qiaochuan:
"Do college students still read books? You don't have to look at how many bookstores on West Street have collapsed. If you read so many books, wouldn't you be ranked last in the exam?"

The two people who were shocked immediately stopped talking.

"Everyone thinks about what we can do," Ren Yifan said to everyone, ignoring the unreliable two people, "When you think of it, you can go and rest..."

"Ah? Can you go and have a rest?" Yu Hao, who was holding a pillow beside him, only heard the word "rest" in a daze, and immediately stood up and wanted to leave.

"Hey, Yu Hao, do you have any ideas?" Ren Yifan asked.

"What, what are your thoughts?" Yu Hao hadn't woken up yet and was a little confused.

Zhong Bai said: "You can start a business with 3 yuan, Brother Hao."

"3 yuan???"

Yu Hao was a bit dumbfounded: "You guys are talking about it as if it's 3 million. What can 3 yuan be enough for? [-] yuan is not enough for anything."

Yu Hao shook his head and said to Ren Yifan:
"If you just want to cash out the money, it's very simple. Just make a report to your superiors and say whatever you want to sell. Therefore, you need to rent a venue. The venue costs 5000 yuan, but you are required to deposit two and pay one. This works out to 2000 yuan, and at the same time, each person will be given 3 yuan per month. Not counting the eight of me, the total is [-] yuan, and even taxes are exempted. ... [-] yuan is not enough."

"Is your idea reliable?" Lu Qiaochuan asked.

"I'm from Chaoshan!"

Yu Hao's powerful reason immediately convinced everyone.

"What about the ocean?" Ren Yifan turned to look at Yi Huawei, wanting to hear what he thought.

"Listen to Brother Hao." Yi Huawei thought for a moment and did not express any objection.

"Oh, so be it." Ren Yifan licked his face and said with a smile: "After the hard work of Brother Hao and I, we finally came up with a solution. Let's call it a night!"

Yi Huawei doesn't really agree with the business of selling learning materials and selling eggs to fill cakes like in the original drama. It's purely a big investment but little gain.The investment Yi Huawei mentioned was not only the 3 yuan, but also the time and energy of the eight of them. What could each of them do if they could get 2000 yuan each month?It's not like he's short of living expenses, even Bi Shisan now has tens of thousands in savings.

If you have this time, you might as well study hard. Lu Qiaochuan and Yu Hao are both on the verge of repeating a grade and are in danger.Lu Qiaochuan didn't take any public courses this year, so he already lost two credits, and Zhong Bai wasn't much better.It's really not worth it if you don't review enough to stay a level just because of this little money.

This meeting ended in vain. Two days later, Ren Yifan took out the money and treated several people to a meal, so the matter was settled.
