Huayu is free to do as you like

After finishing the casting, Chen Zhixi immediately contacted Zeng Li.

There's no need to contact her agent, she has Zeng Li's phone number.

"Hey, are you Zeng Li?"

"Producer Chen, it's me."

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu has just decided that you will play the heroine of our movie.

You don’t have to worry about remuneration, our crew offers the highest remuneration in the industry.

Look, you have time every day in the past two days. Can you come to the company to sign the contract? " Chen Zhixi asked.

"Thank you very much, Producer Chen. Thank you also to Director Gu for your consideration. I will go over to sign the contract tomorrow morning."

Zeng Li looked very surprised and said gratefully.

"Okay, I'll wait for you at the company tomorrow morning."

All the actors for "Detective Chinatown" have been cast, and Liwen Yang brought him another piece of good news: the box office share of "Xiu Chun Knife" has been shared.

Now, in addition to the original 12 million remaining in Gu Wei's company's account, plus the newly arrived 36.5 million, after excluding the expenses spent on buying copyrights during this period, there is still about 45 million left.

According to the agreement he signed with China Film and other three companies, the investment in "Detective Chinatown" is 70 million, and Gu Wei holds 70% of the share, so he needs to contribute 49 million.

Gu Wei made a phone call and called Yang Liwen over, "Sister Yang, prepare to go through the procedures for [Detective Chinatown] and the company's procedures. Come with me later."

Bank of Communications

Gu Wei took Yang Liwen and got off the car at the entrance of the Bank of Communications. President Guo was already waiting to greet him at the door.

"Mr. Gu, welcome, please come in quickly." President Guo warmly greeted Gu Wei, shook hands, and guided him to the high-end VIP room inside.

Gu Wei took Yang Liwen to sit down, and President Guo personally made tea for them.

"This is the Mingqian Longjing I got from the president when I went to the head office last time. I haven't been willing to drink it myself. Mr. Gu and Manager Yang, you two can try it."

After that, he poured himself a glass.

Gu Wei held the tea tray in one hand and filtered the foam on the surface of the tea with the tea lid in the other hand, and took a slight sip.

"Good tea." Gu Wei sighed.

His father loved to drink tea, and he also collected some tea leaves of different grades at home. He often drank them with his father, and over time he could taste some tea.

Governor Guo was very happy to hear this.

"I only have two taels left. I'll give them to you, Mr. Gu, in a moment."

“How can a gentleman take away someone’s love?”

"Hey~ I don't know how to drink tea either. Good tea is only valuable when it comes into the hands of someone like you, Mr. Gu, who knows how to taste tea." Governor Guo complimented.

"President Guo is so polite, but I feel disrespectful." Gu Wei smiled, then calmed down and started talking about business.

"President Guo, I came here today to do two things."

Governor Guo was also sitting upright. He actually knew what Gu Wei was here for.

"Mr. Gu, please speak."

"First of all, the movie [Xiuchundao] that my company invested in has a pretty good return rate. I made some money. I'm here to pay off the loan."

"Mr. Gu, you are being humble. Even a layman like me knows how popular your movies are. There is no problem in settling the loan, and our bank has many excellent financial products for you to choose from." President Guo knows that Gu Wei earns There were so many people that they began to promote the bank’s products.

"President Guo, wait a minute. I have one more thing. My company has invested in a new movie. Just like last time, I hope to use the proceeds from this movie as collateral to get a new loan."

Gu Wei said slowly and leisurely.

After hearing this, President Guo not only found it not difficult, but also looked very happy.

"No problem, Mr. Gu, Lao Guo will guarantee this for you. As long as we complete the procedures as last time, the amount and interest this time will be the most favorable."

Governor Guo did not expect such a surprise. Bank loan lenders like to lend money to rich people.

The more successful the company is and the more money it makes, the more he wants to give you a loan.

Gu Wei's success also gave him the confidence to seek more relaxed policies from the bank.

The previous loan of 8 million will be settled first.

Gu Wei asked Yang Liwen to take out all the prepared procedures, including the agreements signed with China Film and other three companies.

Governor Guo looked at the materials for a while, raised his head and said

"Mr. Gu, no problem, our procedures are formal and complete.

Moreover, the investment this time is larger, and there are three famous film and television companies participating, so there will definitely be no problem in lending.

How much do you want to borrow this time? "President Gu asked cautiously.

"40 million, do you think there is a problem?" Gu Wei asked.

Governor Guo thought for a moment and said, "No problem, this amount is fine, in fact it can be higher."

"40 million is enough, and I have to work hard for Governor Guo." Gu Wei said

"Mr. Gu, there is no need to be polite to me. You come to me to apply for a loan because you think highly of me, Mr. Guo.

Things will definitely be sorted out for you. "

With the assistance of President Guo, Gu Wei once again went through the application process and signed.

All done, Governor Guo said

"Mr. Gu, please make another trip tomorrow. The process should be faster this time. Come over tomorrow to sign the loan agreement and the money will arrive."

"Thank you." After saying this, he shook hands with President Guo and took Yang Liwen back to the company.

In the car, Gu Wei said to Yang Liwen, "Sister Yang, we have to ask a headhunter to recruit a general manager for [Wei Mingxia Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd.], who will be responsible for the overall coordination of film and television drama production."

From the time Yang Liwen became Gu Wei's agent until now, Gu Wei found that she was a qualified agent, but she was not good at managing a company or coordinating film and television production.

It turns out that Gu Wei only owns a small personal studio, and all he needs to deal with are Gu Wei's own matters.

Now that [Wei Tianxia Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd.] has been established, it needs to participate in film and television production, and Yang Liwen's abilities are not enough. [Detective Chinatown] There has been little progress in the early preparations. It was not until Chen Zhixi came that the progress became faster.

Gu Wei planned to let Yang Liwen concentrate on being in charge of his studio from now on, and only be the manager of his studio and his agent.

Find professionals to handle film and television production matters.

"Okay, Mr. Gu, I'll do it right away and let the headhunter recommend candidates as soon as possible."

Back at the company, Gu Wei found Chen Zhixi

"How are the early preparations going? Have the crew been assembled?" Gu Wei asked

"The crew has almost been assembled. Thanks to the help of China Film and Enlightenment, it was able to be assembled in such a short period of time."

Chen Zhixi replied.

"When can it be turned on? I hope the sooner the better."

Chen Zhixi thought for a while

"The location is still not selected yet, and I still need to communicate with the Thai side.

[Thailand] The tropical tropics have made tourism in Thailand popular. Now we will enjoy great discounts when we go to film movies there.

Then there is the issue of actors’ schedules. Baoqiang has an event to attend during the Chinese New Year.

Get everything ready before the end of the year. After the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, you can prepare for the launch conference and officially launch. "

With a producer like Chen Zhixi, making movies has become a simple matter.

It can be said that Gu Wei, the director, didn't worry at all.

The script was written by someone who was paid to hire someone before, and the storyboard artist completed the storyboarding. If there was something wrong during filming, it would be changed on the scene.

China Film hired an experienced but not well-known director to be Gu Wei's first assistant director, and through the school's teacher Xu's relationship, he found two unsatisfactory directing department seniors and signed them to their company to do this The second and third directors of the shoot.

Finally, there is Lu Yang, the producer.

This lineup seems to have nothing to do without director Gu Wei.

Of course not, Gu Wei has to make the final decision on everything.

Well~, it was very important and hard for him to take this shot.
