Entertainment, I just like making movies

Two hundred million!

I'll direct it?

Director Han, are you awake?

Fang Ziheng was dumbfounded. He was stunned for a while and quickly shook his head: "No, no, Director Han thinks too highly of me. The threshold for a costume blockbuster is too high. The director needs to have super shooting skills and control."

"I'm just getting started now and I don't have enough ability. Don't mess up this big project of 200 million yuan for you, Director Han."

Fang Ziheng refused immediately!

What a joke.

No one except the domestic veteran can dare to say that he is really capable of handling period blockbusters and martial arts scenes involving thousands or even thousands of people.

In his budget, the investment for "Four Famous Catchers" prepared by Hengyu Media and the trilogy plus one yuan was less than 200 million.

For that matter, he also wanted Hengyu to film "Young Bao Zheng" first, and use the TV series to train a group of crew talents.

After being rejected, Director Han remained calm and encouraged: "You still have to have expectations. If Chinese-language films want to go global, apart from early kung fu movies, the only ones are costume blockbusters."

The boss is the boss!

The opening is a project worth hundreds of millions.

Fang Ziheng guessed that Director Han was also on a whim. The script of "Detective Chinatown" gave him new thoughts, and he wanted to organize a script for a period film.

No matter what, he won't make a real big-investment costume blockbuster within two or three years.

unless

Next, Director Han asked a few more questions about the filming difficulties, agreed to help solve them, and then asked Chen Yu to take over and discuss the investment details in detail.

It wasn't until twelve o'clock that Fang Ziheng walked out of the China Film Studio with the contract for "Detective Chinatown".

The total investment is 60 million, with Hengyu investing 30 million, plus Fang Ziheng’s director’s remuneration, accounting for 55% of the shares.

China Film invested 17 million, occupying 25% of the share, and also won the distribution rights of the film.

As for Huayi, 20% of the investment share was left for them!

However, this share is not easy to come by, and Wang Zhongjun cannot get this investment for no reason.

After leaving China Film and Television, Fang Ziheng went to Radio and Television to submit a script for project approval.

He is not worried about not being able to pass the trial. "Detective Chinatown" was filmed abroad, which has avoided some problems. In addition, it is a comedy and suspense film, which naturally increases the public's acceptance.

Lin Feifei's side has already started to move. This time we go to Thailand to shoot, we must form a capable crew.

As the saying goes, before the soldiers and horses move, food and grass go first.

The advance preparation time takes at least half a month.

Contacting the venue, setting the scene, making props, there are a lot of problems in all aspects.

The actors also had to decide first. In "Detective Chinatown", in addition to the wonderful plot, the outstanding performances of the actors are also very crucial.

afternoon.

Fang Ziheng and Lin Feifei drove the Audi A6 to the Huayi headquarters with the legal affairs of the two companies.

The lady at the front desk received the notice in advance and brought the four of them to Wang Zhongjun's office with a sweet smile.

"Director Fang, Mr. Lin, welcome."

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Zhongjun stood up from the boss's chair, smiled and came over to shake hands with the four people.

"Hello, Director Wang."

Several people came to the sofa area. As soon as Fang Ziheng sat down, he got straight to the point: "Director Wang, the book has come out. Please take a look first."

As he spoke, he handed over the script of "Detective Chinatown".

"Oh, then I have to take a good look at Director Fang's masterpiece." Wang Zhongjun smiled, took the book and read it carefully.

He got news from within China Film Group that Director Han and Fang Ziheng had signed a contract, and the total investment in this drama was 60 million.

How much share Huayi can capture remains to be discussed.

At this time, Mr. Xiao Wang knocked on the door and burst into laughter as soon as he entered: "Director Fang, Mr. Lin, you two didn't even give me a call when you came, so I could go downstairs to greet you in person."

"Mr. Wang, you're too polite. I'm not that rich." Concubine Lin sat still and replied calmly.

Mr. Xiao Wang was still about to say something, but when Wang Zhongjun glanced at him, he instantly regained his composure.

He walked to the sofa and stood behind Wang Zhongjun, leaning his neck to read the script together.

Mr. Xiao Wang’s division of labor in Huayi is different from that of his elder brother. Wang Zhongjun is only responsible for the general directions of investment, distribution and production.

He is different. His interpersonal relationships are complicated. In addition to socializing, he also has to worry about the artists under the company.

As soon as Fang Ziheng and Lin Feifei walked into Huayi, the celebrity artists below received the news.

We didn't find out about "Detective Chinatown" before. This time the director himself came over, and these people didn't want to miss it again.

Mr. Xiao Wang followed suit and came to see if he could get some important roles for his artists.

ten minutes later!

Wang Zhongjun handed the script to Mr. Wang and sighed: "As expected of Director Fang, he combines comedy and suspense so perfectly. It is carried out on four lines, two light and two dark. The plot is compact, and the laughter and suspense are not delayed at all. Beautiful. pretty!"

"Director Fang, you must participate in this book, Huayi, no matter how big the investment is?"

Wang Zhongjun now felt confident that even Director Han dared to give it a try, but he was just scared.

He didn't know that Fang Ziheng left out the script and deleted the plot related to the second part of the movie.

Not only Wang Zhongjun, but also Director Han didn’t know.

As the saying goes, what comes true is what comes true!

The "Tang Detective" series is too important and one cannot be too cautious.

"Director Wang, Hengyu can give up 15% of its share to you."

Seeing that the effect of the script was achieved, Fang Ziheng smiled and asked the legal affairs department to bring out the contract and said: "But you also know, Mr. Wang, that this drama is the key project of the year created by Hengyu this year, so..."

"I know, it's about the shares, right?"

Wang Zhongjun interrupted Fang Ziheng and raised three fingers: "For 30% of the share, Hua Yi will give Director Fang 2 million of his original shares."

"Impossible, China Film only has 25% share."

Without even thinking about it, Fang Ziheng waved his hand and refused: "Director Wang, to be honest, I value this film very much. Hengyu must have full control. If I give up 30% of the share, the company I finally built will have to work for someone else again. "

The original stock of 2 million Huayi was actually not that small. Huayi’s first brother, Huang Guozhu, took this much.

You must know that Feng Pants, as Huayi’s most important asset, only has 3.6 million original shares.

The original stock price of Huayi was only 3 yuan, and the listing price was 29 yuan. On the day of listing, the opening price was 68 yuan, which increased more than 20 times.

All shareholders are making crazy money.

However, things cannot be calculated that way. After all, Hua Yi has not yet been listed on the market. Who knows what will happen in the future, and "Detective Chinatown" in Fang Ziheng's hands is currently the biggest hot potato.

"Then it's 25%. Huayi is the same as China Film Group. Director Fang holds half of the share. It doesn't count as working for others."

Wang Zhongjun's face moved, and after thinking for a while, he reported the same data as China Film.

Fang Ziheng said nothing, and the office fell into silence.

At this moment, Concubine Lin spoke. She took back the script from Mr. Wang and said with a smile: "Dr. Wang, I think 20% is more appropriate. Our director Fang is also a director with a box office of 200 million. This "Chinatown" "Detective" was written, directed and acted by him, so 5% of the revenue is not too much!"

As soon as these words came out, Wang Zhongjun and Mr. Xiao Wang were immediately stunned.

Damn it

Damn Fang Ziheng, it turns out you are waiting here!

Lin Feifei proposed the director's remuneration, and Wang Zhongjun declined. Instead of insisting, he agreed to invest 20%.

Fang Ziheng and Hengyu Media signed two contracts with Huayi, one for "Detective Chinatown" and one for his personal purchase of Huayi's original shares.

Wang Zhongjun, a good man, went to the end and asked Lin Feifei if she wanted to buy some original shares of Huayi. He was willing to provide 1 million original shares.

Lin Feifei wanted to refuse, but finally reluctantly agreed under Fang Ziheng's wild wink.

After discussing important matters, Fang Ziheng reciprocated, took out a list of characters, and said sincerely: "Director Wang, there are many characters in "Detective Chinatown", and I still need your company's help."

"Don't worry, Director Fang, no matter which role you need, our artists under Huayi will do our best."

Before Wang Zhongjun could speak, Mr. Wang took the lead and accepted the list with a smile.

"Tsk, tsk. Baoqiang, Deng Chao, Xiaoming."

"Director Fang has good vision, and he killed three generals of Hua Yi in one go!"
