Rebirth of Xiangjiang - 1978

There are less than a few days left before the Chinese New Year, and Lin Daoqiu still has to finish New Oriental's affairs before the end of the year.

Early the next morning, he left Rosamund Kwan's home and headed to New Oriental.

Lin Daoqiu and Fang Jinsheng had just stepped out of the elevator when he saw Wang Jing and Chu Yuan already waiting there.

"Good morning Mr. Lin."

"So early?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect that Wang Jing and the others would arrive so early.

"We don't have any work at hand, so we came here early to wait for you."

In fact, after returning home last night, Wang Jing and Chu Yuan had a good chat for a while.

Guan Zhilin and Zhong Chuhong, these two girls have not taken any roles recently, so Wang Jing is very confident about recruiting them.

"Let's talk after we come in first."

Lin Daoqiu also admired Wang Jing and Chu Yuan for their positive work attitudes. He also hoped that his subordinates would be more diligent.

After entering the office, Wang Jing and Chu Yuan sat opposite Lin Daoqiu.

"Tell me, what scenes are you planning to film this time?"

Although Lin Daoqiu asked this question, in fact, what he wanted to read was the script.

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jing immediately handed the two prepared scripts to Lin Daoqiu.

""Ghost Man Chases Girl", "Infatuated Heart Saint"."

Looking down at the script in his hand, Lin Daoqiu had never heard of the previous one.

The latter one was something that Wang Jing had not filmed before, so he wanted to film it this time.

"Both of them are urban comedy about girls chasing girls?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect that Wang Jing would want to make two movies of the same type at once.

"I have already thought about it. There will definitely be no problem if the two dramas are released one month apart."

Nowadays, urban comedy is a genre that the public likes very much. Wang Jing wants to grab the popularity and earn more box office through this genre.

Chu Yuan, who was sitting next to Wang Jing, quickly nodded in agreement.

Anyway, as long as there is a scene to film, it doesn't matter to him what type it is.

Wang Jing's production costs for these two dramas are not high, and the total does not exceed four million. Even if they lose money by then, they probably won't lose much money.

"The production cost of "Ghost Man Chasing Girls" is not high, only one million. I want to use the combination of Fu Sheng and Xie Xian, plus Miss Zhong, for "Insane Love". I hope to have three million

Production fee.”

Wang Jing had thought about it before he came. Chu Yuan had just joined New Oriental not long ago, so he was allowed to develop slowly. He was asked to shoot "The Ghost Man Chasing the Girl".

As for "Infatuated Heart", Wang Jing will naturally take charge of it personally. After all, with a production fee of 3 million, if the box office does not exceed 10 million, it will definitely lose money.

When Wang Jing was talking, Lin Daoqiu said nothing because he was looking down at the script.

These two plays, if released to later generations, would not get much box office at all.

However, the newly emerging urban comedy has just started, so these two dramas written by Wang Jing should be able to get good box office.

After briefly reading the two scripts, Lin Daoqiu agreed to Wang Jing and Chu Yuan's filming plan with a stroke of his pen.

"We'll make preparations after celebrating the New Year. It's still early now, so don't be too anxious."

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and Lin Daoqiu is not an unkind person. It is a bit too much to ask others to go to work during the Chinese New Year.

After getting Lin Daoqiu's agreement, both Wang Jing and Chu Yuan showed happy smiles on their faces.

But at this moment, Lin Daoqiu suddenly picked up the phone and called General Manager Li Maowen over.

Not long after, Li Maowen came to Lin Daoqiu's office.

"Mr. Lin, are you looking for me?"

After Li Maowen said hello to Wang Jing and Chu Yuan, he moved a chair and sat down.

"I brought you here today because I want to tell you something, and I also want to let you know in advance."

Li Maowen didn't know what Lin Daoqiu was going to say to him. Wang Jing and Chu Yuan also quickly stretched their ears, because the meaning of Lin Daoqiu's words seemed to be related to them.

"Starting from today, for movies with a production cost of less than 5 million, you can just go to Li Maowen to negotiate. There is no need to ask me for instructions."

Lin Daoqiu was delegating power to Li Maowen. After all, he was the general manager of New Oriental. Logically speaking, it was normal for him to handle these matters.

Moreover, Lin Daoqiu didn't want to be like that, having to ask about everything and take care of everything.

As New Oriental's business will increase in the future, the things it has to manage will become more complicated. If you have to decide everything by yourself, then you won't even have time to rest.

Hearing that Lin Daoqiu delegated power to himself, Li Maowen suddenly showed an expression of sincerity and fear.

Although we are no longer in the era where you can make a movie with 200,000 yuan.

But for Li Maowen, movies with a production cost of less than 5 million account for almost 90% of Hong Kong movies.

Lin Daoqiu's order was equivalent to making him the powerful person in New Oriental, the real general manager.

Wang Jing and Chu Yuan did not expect that Lin Daoqiu would value Li Maowen so much and give him such an important approval power. It seemed that they would have to build a good relationship with General Manager Li in the future.

"Mr. Lin, are you thinking about it? I'm worried that I won't be able to do it well and I will live up to your trust."

Li Maowen did not start to get carried away because he was reused. He still looked cautious and prudent, which made Lin Daoqiu very satisfied.

"You have been following me since Princess Jin. I know very well how capable you are. This matter has been settled. You can discuss the rest with Li Maowen in detail."

Lin Daoqiu has already said this. If Li Maowen is not more conspicuous, he will probably make the other party unhappy, and then a good thing may turn into a bad thing.

"If that's the case, please rest assured, Mr. Lin, I will do my best to get things done and live up to your trust."

After Li Maowen finished speaking, he stood up and bowed deeply to Lin Daoqiu.

A true man will die for his confidant. At this moment, Li Maowen felt that Lin Daoqiu valued and trusted him, and he was both excited and excited.

He shook his hand, Lin Daoqiu was not as great as Li Maowen thought, he was just lazy.

In fact, he can handle these tasks well, but Lin Daoqiu doesn't want these things to take up too much of his time.

After seeing off Li Maowen and Wang Jing, Fang Jinsheng walked in from the outside holding a document.

"Mr. Lin, this is the first day of the Lunar New Year festival. Please take a look at the box office revenue of the movie."

After Fang Jinsheng finished speaking, he placed the document in front of Lin Daoqiu.

Lin Daoqiu opened the document and saw that the corners of his mouth slowly curved in an arc, and then became more and more obvious.
