Chapter 1953 Negotiating Remuneration (2 More)
"Mr. Liu, may I ask, how much money are you going to invest in making these movies?" Zhang Wenzhong asked.

"I don't know either. It depends on what you want." Liu Tao said.

"What do I mean? Did I just spend as much as I said?" Zhang Wenzhong was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Yes. You are the director, and your task is to make these movies well. As for how much money you spend, as long as it is the money needed for shooting, it doesn't matter how much you spend. What I want is a good movie, not a fast food movie." Liu Tao replied .

"Is there any time limit? After all, it takes time to make a good film. It can't be completed in a month or two." Zhang Wenzhong said.

"You can control the time yourself. On the premise of ensuring the quality, try to shorten the time as much as possible. Movies are made for everyone to watch. If a movie is made for decades, many people may not be able to see it." Liu Tao Said.

"Hmm. I know. I'm just asking. Normally, a movie takes three months to half a year, and it's about the same." Zhang Wenzhong said.

"What kind of resources do you need, you can find them. If you can't find them, you can call me and I will come to find them." Liu Tao said.

"Okay." Zhang Wenzhong nodded.

"It's getting late, let's find a place to eat first. Chat while eating." Liu Tao said.

"Ah."

"You wait here. I'll call Wang Lan and ask her to come too. I'm going to let her play the leading role, is it okay?" Liu Tao asked.

"No problem. Wang Lan is a first-line star in China. Even if you don't tell me, I will invite her when the time comes." Zhang Wenzhong replied.

"That's good. I hope she can gain more popularity with these films. Of course, I hope these films can be recognized by people all over the world." Liu Tao said.

"It should be possible." Zhang Wenzhong said.

Then, Liu Tao called Wang Lan and asked him to come to him.

Not long after, Wang Lan appeared in front of everyone.

"A Tao, what do you want me for?" Wang Lan greeted him when she saw him.

"Didn't I make an appointment with Director Zhang? You are the heroine of the new movie, come and have dinner with us." Liu Tao said.

"Is the new movie starting soon?" Wang Lan asked.

"We are looking for someone to write the script. After the script is written, we can start filming." Liu Tao replied.

"That's really great." Wang Lan said.

"Okay. Let's stop talking here. Let's find a place to sit down and chat." Liu Tao said.

Then, the group of three came to the best hotel in Binjiang City.

Seeing Liu Tao, the manager of the hotel hurried forward to say hello.

Then, the manager took them to the best private room.

After everyone sat down, Liu Tao asked Wang Lan to order.

Wang Lan was not polite to him, and ordered four dishes and one soup directly.

"Director Zhang, come, let's have a drink first." Liu Tao raised his glass and said.

Seeing this, Zhang Wenzhong raised his wine glass.

Then, the two glasses touched.

Then, Liu Tao drank it all in one gulp.

Although Zhang Wenzhong's alcohol capacity is also very good, he felt a little nervous when he saw Liu Tao drinking a glass in one gulp.

But he also drank a glass of wine directly.

"Director Zhang, I've thought of two plans for your salary. One is to give you a salary directly, and the other is to give you a share of the box office. I don't know which one you want to choose." Liu Tao said.

"How much is the salary, and how much is the box office share?" Zhang Wenzhong asked.

"In terms of salary, it's 1000 million yuan for a film. If it's a share, it's [-]% of all the box office." Liu Tao replied.

"I choose the latter." Zhang Wenzhong made the choice without even thinking about it.

"It seems that you are very confident that the box office of the movie will exceed one billion." Liu Tao laughed.

"That's for sure. There are quite a few bad movies these days, and the box office can be hundreds of millions, or even billions. One billion is really not that much." Zhang Wenzhong said.

"Since you choose this method, I will arrange someone to sign the contract with you later." Liu Tao said.

"Hmm. Okay." Zhang Wenzhong nodded.

"Wang Lan, how much do you plan to pay?" Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"I don't want any reward." Wang Lan replied.

Liu Tao did not speak.

"A Tao, did I say something wrong?" Wang Lan asked worriedly seeing him like this.

"No. Since you don't want a reward, forget it. I will compensate you in other ways." Liu Tao shook his head and said.

"Ah."

At this time, the dishes began to be served one after another.

"Director Zhang, come and eat!" Liu Tao greeted.

Zhang Wenzhong picked up the chopsticks.

After taking a few mouthfuls, Liu Tao picked up the wine glass, and the two drank another glass.

In this way, the two drank more than a dozen glasses of liquor.

No matter how good Zhang Wenzhong's drinking capacity is, he is not Liu Tao's opponent at all.

In the end, I got drunk.

"A Tao, why do you drink so much alcohol? It's not good for your health." Wang Lan said worriedly.

"It's fine. I drink very well." Liu Tao said with a slight smile.

"No matter what, drinking too much is always bad. Don't drink so much in the future." Wang Lan said.

"Yeah. I got it. Director Zhang is so drunk now, let's just let him stay here." Liu Tao said.

"That's the only way to go." Wang Lan said.

Then, Liu Tao asked the hotel manager to come over and helped Zhang Wenzhong go to the guest room upstairs to rest.

"Where are we two going now?" Wang Lan asked.

"Go home. I want to accompany my son." Liu Tao replied.

"Okay." Wang Lan nodded.

Then, the two left here.

When they got home, there was no one else in the house except Fan Wenjuan and the others.

Xiaowei is not there.

"Sister Juan, where's Weizheng?" Liu Tao asked.

"He just fell asleep." Fan Wenjuan replied.

"Then when he wakes up, I'll tease him again." Liu Tao said.

"Yes." Fan Wenjuan nodded.

"I'm going to watch TV." Liu Tao said.

Then he turned on the TV.

The TV news channel was still broadcasting the news that the hostages in country F had been rescued.

Liu Tao's appearance after changing his appearance has been reappearing in a loop.

The government of Country F highly praised Dragon Man's behavior.

Of course, they also want to give Shenlongxia some rewards.

I hope that Dragon Warrior can come to pick it up.

These rewards are nothing more than medals and bonuses.

For Liu Tao, these things are insignificant at all.

That's not what he wants.

Just like what he told the old chief, there are some things that he wants to get back.

So, he decided to go to country F again.

Since the other party wants to commend him, he can make some reasonable demands.Even if the other party refuses, it doesn't matter.

No matter what, always have to try to see if it will work.
