Three days later, on Saturday night, in a luxurious villa in the Royal Garden Villa District
"Lao Zhang, you have watched movies for decades, and now you are making movies yourself, please don't eliminate me!"
Mr. Wang of Jiahao Entertainment Company picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zhang Jianhua.
Zhang Jianhua and he lived in the same community and had known each other for 20 to 30 years.
Lao Zhang usually loves to watch movies. Unexpectedly, he wanted to make movies when he was about to retire.
Well, who doesn't have dreams?
Zhang Jianhua smiled and said,"Lao Wang, your Jiahao is the second largest entertainment company in the country. Are you afraid of me shooting a small commercial?"
"Three hours of advertising? OK, OK, you salesmen are really getting more and more aggressive.
After a brief exchange of greetings and jokes, Zhang Jianhua took out the simplified script of Titanic and handed it to Wang Zhan.
"Lao Wang, here is the script, are you interested in investing?"
He didn't come to Wang Zhan today to drink tea. He came to attract investment, find a team, and find actors.
The budget sheet given by Chen Xiao showed that a budget of 150 million was required. The company would pay 40%, and he would invest 10% out of his own pocket. The remaining half would have to be sponsored.
The best candidate, of course, would be the friend who was the president of the film and television company. He was the first choice to make money and contribute his efforts.
Wang Zhan was also a thousand-year-old fox, so of course he could see his plan. He had to give face to an old friend.
Investing one or two million and helping with publicity would be enough.
He took the script,"Let me take a look."
"A love story, it's a good match for a diamond company." Wang Zhan glanced at the first page.
"Oh, I remembered that we have a romantic movie coming out soon. It's very good. I'm sure you will like it. Remember to contribute 50 yuan."
""Yes, I will definitely go."
Zhang Jianhua's eyes were full of smiles.
Old Wang still had the heart to mention the love movie produced by his company? He was already looking forward to seeing Old Wang reading the script.
Wang Zhan smiled and continued to turn the next two pages.
His face gradually became serious.
After another two minutes, he stood up with the script in his hand,"Old Zhang, wait a minute, I'll go put on my glasses."
""Go, go, go." Zhang Jianhua's mouth curled up.
Seeing the shocked look on the face of this veteran in the film industry, he felt a little proud.
Soon, Wang Zhan put on his glasses, came back and sat on the sofa, carefully flipping through the pages, his eyes gradually reddened.
Ten minutes later, Wang Zhan closed the script and breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at Zhang Jianhua, his face serious, his tone slightly trembling.
"《Titanic, this script is more soul-stirring than almost all the scripts I have seen in the more than 30 years of my career in the film and television industry. Both the story design and the character design are rare in a century!"
"Even his writing style and the way he presents the story are genius, a genius!"
"This is not the most rare thing. The most important thing is that this movie perfectly matches the market gap!"
"Lao Zhang, you should be able to feel it when you watch movies. Romance movies in recent years are quite... superficial. Some viewers even say that they are just paying to go to the cinema to suffer."
"There is a market for romance films, but there are no good ones"
"This script has a wide audience! Even a 50-year-old man like me can be moved by it."
"Based on my understanding of the domestic market, this script will definitely be a big hit once it’s filmed!"
"Lao Zhang, can we let our company shoot this? Don't worry, I will definitely highlight the diamond elements and put your company at the beginning of the movie."
Listening to his friend's series of fast-paced and earnest speeches, Zhang Jianhua's mind was buzzing.
As a movie lover, he knew that this was a good script, but... a once-in-a-century opportunity?
A perfect match for the market vacancy?
Isn't this a bit exaggerated?
Is Lao Wang kidding?
But looking at Lao Wang's serious expression and shaking hands, Zhang Jianhua knew very well that his friend was not joking.
Seeing that Zhang Jianhua didn't answer, Wang Zhan was so anxious that he almost caught fire, and quickly added:
"Lao Zhang, there is a prerequisite for becoming a big hit, you have to shoot it well!"
"How about this, we can cooperate in filming. Actors, directors, cameramen, I'll give you everything! I'll find the best director for you!"
Zhang Jianhua pursed his lips.
He has known Lao Wang for 30 years, and this is the first time he has seen him so excited.
It is enough to show that the market value of this script is far beyond his imagination!
But the position of chief director has been given to Chen Xiao.
As a leader and elder, he can't go back on his word to the son of his old comrade.
He held the teacup and thought for a moment, then said:
"Lao Wang, calm down. The chief director has been decided for the time being. But there are vacancies for the assistant director, actors and investors. I wanted to ask you to help find a humble assistant director who doesn't put on airs."
He made two preparations for such an assistant director.
If Chen Xiao gives him a surprise in terms of directing like he did in writing the script, then the assistant director will just be an assistant director.
Choose a humble one, so that others won't want to squeeze Chen Xiao out because of his inexperience.
If Chen Xiao is not good enough, then they will step down as agreed and let the assistant director take over.
Hearing that the chief director had been decided, Wang Zhan sighed with a look of regret.
The chief director is the highest person in charge of the film and has the right to sign his name. What a pity.
Which big director can get this film?
Wang Zhan asked curiously,"Who is the one chosen?"
"It's the author."
Wang Zhan was startled, and a storm of emotions surged in his heart.
"You mean, the director himself wrote this script? When did such a talent appear in this circle? What's his name?"
"You don't know him."
Wang Zhan blinked.
He doesn't know him?
Oh, I see. He
's from abroad!
Even if he doesn't know the director of a big country, he has heard of him.
If he hasn't heard of him, then he must be a director from a small country
, right? Small countries have cultural differences, so they need a humble assistant director to help.���
Got it!
I got it all!
Be humble to avoid offending the senior!
Wang Zhan patted his chest,"Got it. I'll take care of the assistant director."
He just came back from abroad, so maybe he doesn't have a company.
If he can sign this big guy, Jiahao might just start a new era!
Wang Zhan's eyes were full of anticipation,"Lao Zhang, when will the filming start? I must go meet this director. Does he have a company now?"
"Probably next month. There is a company."
Wang Zhan felt disappointed.
If such a talent was snatched away by someone, the company would have a big enemy!
He was full of regret and asked:"When did you get in, and which company?"
"Last month, I just joined our company"
"……"
Wang Zhan was speechless.
Why would a jewelry company like you hire such a talent?
"Does your company want to transform?"
"No, even though the diamond market is not doing well, we are still selling gold, so why should we transform?"
"……"
Wang Zhan shook his head.
He really didn't know how Lao Zhang found such a treasure.
He would meet the great director in person later to see if he could find Jiahao!
"Forget it, I won't tell you anymore. When the filming starts, I will go to meet the director in person!"
Zhang Jianhua smiled awkwardly
""Meet Chen Xiao?"
Lao Wang seems to have some misunderstanding.
Forget it, as long as the actors, assistant director and investment are in place, it will be fine.
"The investment, actors, and production team are all reserved for you. Most of the actors are artists from your company, so please check if there are any problems."
