Chapter 31 A Visit to Huang Jing's House

Before leaving the company, Huang Jing called to remind him that his old man had returned from the set, and Ye Jingcheng was the only one left.So Ye Jingcheng sent Guan Zhilin to the car, and then hurried to Huang Jing's house not far away.

Not long after, someone came over to open the door for Ye Jingcheng. The middle-aged woman who opened the door looked very haggard, as if she had been deeply tortured for something, and it was obvious that it was Huang Jing's mother who was recovering from her gambling addiction.

When I came to the hall, I saw Huang Tianlin leaning on a cane and Dama Jindao sitting there.One person almost occupies the entire three-seater sofa, and it is easy to feel overwhelmed by the other party.

At this time, Huang Jing Pi Dian Pi Dian came up, whispered a few words in Ye Jingcheng's ear, then took the script he brought over and handed it to Huang Tianlin.

"Old man, this is Ye Jingcheng. This is the script for our next play." Huang Jing stood aside and introduced Ye Jingcheng.In front of Huang Tianlin, Huang Jing was more like an older child, as if he had done something worthy of praise and was claiming credit with his father.

"Uncle Tianlin, you can just call me Chengzi."

Don't look at how Huang Tianlin displayed his supernatural power on the set, it may be because of this reason that he couldn't even arouse the interest in talking after returning home, so he just responded indifferently: "Yes."

After reading it repeatedly for ten minutes, Huang Tianlin fell into a short thought.Conceive and set up the scene in the script, and convert it into a dynamic movie like a projector in your mind.

After reading the whole script, Huang Tianlin seemed to have something to say, but he stopped when he reached the point of his mouth.

He did not comment on the script, but pushed the question back to Ye Jingcheng.Asked: "This script is good, have you ever imagined how much box office you can get?"

"If Shaw Brothers is willing to screen the whole series, I believe there will be at least 1000 million box office." After pondering for a moment, Ye Jingcheng said a questionable result.

"1000 million! That's so much!!!" Huang Jing couldn't calm down anymore, but seeing Huang Tianlin's sharp eyes, she immediately shrank back.

"Oh? What do you think? Just tell me."

Huang Tianlin was also interested. From the script alone, he knew that the film would have a high box office, but he dared not say that it would exceed 1000 million, and he even thought that it might not have a box office of 800 or [-] million.

A box office of 1000 million is no longer the achievement of a film, it is definitely a milestone in the Hong Kong Island film industry.Because there is no film on Hong Kong Island that can exceed 1000 million box office, not even 900 million box office.

Ye Jingcheng's neither haughty nor overbearing behavior seemed to be a material for great things.So Huang Tianlin planned to get to know Ye Jingcheng better, to see if he was deliberate or just showing off.

"I have some ideas, and it depends on whether Uncle Liu is willing to relax the conditions for me." Ye Jingcheng smiled.

Ye Jingcheng outlined his plan, and then mentioned some details about the film. Huang Tianlin couldn't stop nodding after hearing this. It seems that this young man really has some skills.

The only difficulty is that he doesn't have the relevant talents and equipment, which he has to borrow from Shaw Brothers.

"I can help you inquire about this question. I heard that you still let Ah Jing invest in this movie?"

He didn't intend to let Huang Jing handle the negotiation of the dividends. According to what Ye Jingcheng said, if the box office can really break through 1000 million, every dividend will be a huge sum of money.

With Huang Jing's big-mouthed character, it was easy for Ye Jingcheng to catch his thoughts, and he would completely lead him by the nose.

"I have carefully considered this point. The investment amount of "Yin Yang Wrong" is about 100 million, and I plan to allocate [-]% of it to Ah Jing."

The reason why he said that there is a distribution method for this amount is that apart from the fact that the film needs to go to Huang Jing, given the current situation of Huang Jing's family, 20 is already the maximum amount they can take out.

Even though Huang Jing only received more than 50 dividends not long ago, at least 20% of this money must be used to repay Huang's mother's gambling debts, and Huang Tianlin may have to make up the [-].

The reason why Huang Jing was able to spend 20 yuan before was to keep that money for nothing, and the same is true for the [-] yuan now.

In terms of business, if the hero and heroine are popular stars, the cost of the film is almost the same price.Right now, Ye Jingcheng decides to use newcomers as the male and female protagonists, and the cost can be reduced to about [-] yuan.

There is a saying called budget. Ye Jingcheng, as the largest investor, has the right to say about the additional funds and the end of the budget.To put it simply, it is a plan to refund more and make up less, but Huang Jing, who is the shareholder, can't do it.

It's not that Ye Jingcheng wants to cheat the other party's 20. If "Yin Yang Wrong" really reaches 1000 million at the box office, 20 is just a sporadic point.People always have their own selfishness, and it is impossible to give away their own interests to others for nothing.

It was the same for Huang Jing, many things did not wait for Ye Jingcheng to say, he had already taken the initiative to fight for his interests.

The purpose of doing this is to prevent the other party from having a chance to bargain. With Huang Tianlin's old-fashioned personality who has walked the set for many years, it is very likely that he will compete with him for [-]% to [-]% of the profits.

"100 million?" Huang Tianlin sighed secretly, he didn't expect the other party to calculate it right, and he really didn't even have a chance to bargain.

Alas, if it wasn't for a woman who gambled badly in the family, let alone only [-]% of the funds, he would have the ability to want to be fully funded.Huang Tianlin was lucky that his son knew such a noble person, at least Ye Jingcheng took care of him.

Otherwise, with Ye Jingcheng's current surplus, there is no need to find someone to buy shares. The 100 million won't be spent all at once, even if there is a shortfall in Ye Jingcheng's funds, he can use the follow-up overseas box office share to meet it.

At this time, he only needs to pay a certain amount of money. There are not many veteran directors, but he can choose from ten or eight. Huang Jing doesn't even have the ability to compete in front of them.So Huang Tianlin turned his head and said to Huang Jing: "You brat, you have to fight this time, you know?"

"Yes, yes." Huang Jing bowed and responded, and then blinked at Ye Jingcheng to express her gratitude.Don't look at him as an old man who is usually very kind, but scolding people is really killing people, this time even he is optimistic about things, so there is no need to worry.

After the matter was finalized, Huang Tianlin continued the topic just now, and said, "Ah Cheng, I will try my best to discuss with Uncle Liu about the conditions you just proposed. For the joint venture movie between you and Ah Jing, my old face will be shaved off for Uncle Liu if it is a big deal." Knife."

After hearing Huang Tianlin's words, Ye Jingcheng secretly scolded the old fox.It was obviously a proposal that benefited both parties, but now he owed him a favor in turn.

Favors are often more meaningful than money when used at the right time.What can be facilitated by favors may not be resolved by money.

"By the way, the producer of a major show is very important, and it happens that I have nothing to do during this time..."

At this moment, Ye Jingcheng finally came to his senses, the harmless Huang Tianlin in front of him simply wanted to use other methods to get his foot in.If it weren't for his old man's sake, maybe he would give him a trick like Huang Jing, with his butt backwards flattening the sand and falling into the wild goose.

Doesn't this show that you are pushing your limits?Ye Jingcheng couldn't possibly agree, and quickly stopped him: "Uncle Tianlin, this time I want to test my ability, and if I really lack it, I will ask you to help me."

"Oh? That's fine. In the next two days, you and Ah Jing should make preparations first, and don't be in a hurry." Huang Tianlin said lightly.

A well-written script, a calm and stable personality, and a calm and honest speech, this is Huang Tianlin's evaluation of Ye Jingcheng.

Then look at Huang Jing, who has a hippie smile on her face. She speaks exaggeratedly and has talent, but she does things like a superficial touch.Hey, the good kids really belong to someone else's family.

"You young people, talk about your thoughts, I'll take a rest first, and then call me when I eat." Huang Tianlin is over fifty this year, and with his bloated figure, it is very inconvenient to walk, and he has to rely on crutches just do.

Ye Jingcheng and Huang Jing discussed the script for more than half an hour.

After all, they were all young people, and with Huang Jing's unconstrained thinking ability, Ye Jingcheng didn't need to explain many details, Huang Jing already understood them.The idea of ​​the two is to know everything, and they quickly agreed on the script.
