Wang Chong suddenly felt dumbfounded.

Yu Manling was also glared at by Su Tong, and then Su Tong turned sideways and said to Wang Chong, "Mr. Wang, I made you laugh."

After the three of them took their seats, Su Tong said: "I wasn't with her Man Ling before, and she got a little carried away. She only cared about playing around every day and her training was wasted. This is absolutely unacceptable."

"Especially since she is banned now, it is the time when resources are at their lowest. If she rashly transforms and changes her character, new fans will not be attracted, and it is very likely that her original fans will not buy it. It will make things worse."

"So, in the short term, she still needs to maintain her original persona outside the home and undergo enhanced training. Now that I am based in Haicheng, I require her to maintain her original persona before breaking through the ban, and she must also

It will take some improvement in the artist’s special skills such as acting and singing skills.”

Wang Chong glanced at Yu Manling, who had a bitter look on her face, and nodded slightly, "Sister Tong, you are right, you have worked hard during this time."

Just like a pet master must train his pet to continuously improve his strength. Star artists must also constantly improve their singing, acting and other special skills in order to be more likely to succeed.

Su Tong's suggestion was very pertinent. Although Yu Manling was reluctant, he would not object to this pertinent suggestion because of Yu Manling's reluctance.

Anxious to get to the topic, the three of them chatted and ordered food. Soon, the dishes were all served.

The main dish served this time was the fried giant crab.

The giant crab is a kind of sea crab, about the size of a basin. It has a trace of the blood of a demon pet, but it is not a demon pet. It is called a giant crab because of the dots on its shell. The meat of the giant crab is tender and tender.

, and are slender and white, as beautiful as whitebait, and rich in nutrients.

This dish is a test of the quality of the ingredients and the control of the heat during the frying process. A well-done fried giant crab is extraordinary delicious.

The waiter dedicatedly opened the separated crab shells and used special crab claws to pick out the tender and white crab meat. Instantly, a strong aroma came out, which was the crab meat and crab paste that had been touched by hot oil.

The rich aroma afterward makes people's mouth water just by smelling it.

The crab paste is fried and has a very fragrant taste. Coupled with Bu Fang's control of the heat, the crab meat is white, fragrant and tender, exuding steaming heat, which makes people appetite.

Yu Manling was on a diet to maintain her figure and rarely ate these delicacies. She couldn't help but lick her lips for a moment. When the waiter left the room, she immediately took off her sunglasses and started to feast.

"It's so delicious! If I could eat it every day, I would be willing to gain another two pounds!" Yu Manling thought as she ate.

However, how could Su Tong let her have her wish? After only two or three bites, Su Tong took away the giant crab in front of Yu Manling's table.

Regardless of Yu Manling's pitiful look, most of the remaining giant crab meat was divided between Wang Chong and Su Tong.

But in private, Wang Chong secretly left four or five large pieces of crab meat for Yu Manling, and when Su Tong wasn't paying attention, he secretly put it into Yu Manling's bowl.

Yu Manling was so happy that she almost couldn't help but rush forward and kiss Wang Chong a few times.

The chef at this place has excellent skills. In addition to the main dish of fried giant crab, there are also many very delicious dishes.

For example, beer stewed beef, the stewed beef is cooked at just the right temperature. The fragrant beef brisket is rich, tender, and full of toughness. The penetration of beer makes every piece of beef more elastic, with a better taste and a layered texture.

Coupled with a plate of red beef with a unique secret sauce and some green leafy vegetables. It was a gourmet storm that swept the mouths of Wang Chong and others.

Pair it with a cup of special drink with sweet and sour taste to digest the greasy meat. Take a sip and feel refreshed and comfortable.

After drinking and eating, the three of them started chatting about business. Su Tong said to Wang Chong, "Mr. Wang, I'm inviting you out this time. I mainly want to talk to you about Man Ling's ban."

"You should be aware of the current situation, right? Because of director Zhang Enshang's banning order, Man Ling can't get any roles. In other words, as long as she is interested in a film, she will almost always be greeted by director Zhang."

"Even if we want to bring money into the group, almost no one is willing. As a result, the studio has been established for a while, but there is almost no progress."

"Furthermore, our establishment of a studio to resist was seen as a provocation by him. His ban on Man Ling has gone from semi-public to completely public. This has made everyone in the industry wary of Man Ling."

Wang Chong didn't know much about the entertainment industry and asked, "Aren't there a lot of people who make TV and movies every day? It's impossible for him to dominate the entertainment industry, right?"

Su Tong smiled bitterly and said, "The entertainment industry may seem big, but in fact the real high-end circle is so small, and they are all connected to each other. With Director Zhang's contacts and connections over the years, everyone will still give him face."

"Although the remaining young directors have nothing to do with him, they are afraid of offending him and being affected. In addition, Man Ling can only be regarded as a rising newcomer in the industry. Everyone in the industry is used to stepping down and embracing the high.

so..."

Wang Chong nodded clearly, not only in the entertainment industry, but almost everywhere, such a situation occurs, "Then how do you want to solve the matter of being banned?"

Su Tong glanced at Yu Manling next to her, and then said, "I think since no crew is willing to accept us, then we will be self-reliant. Invest our own money, set up our own crew, and recruit our own team to make movies and TV series!"

Wang Chong understood that this was indeed a good breakthrough, but there were also many problems. He asked directly, "It's a good idea to do it yourself, but since you said that many people are worried about Zhang Enshang's influence, how can we find someone else?"

?”

Su Tong nodded, "Yes, just like Mr. Wang said, Zhang Enshang cannot dominate the entertainment industry with one hand. There are many people who have grudges against him and are not convinced by him."

"But if you want to move others, you have to spend a lot of money..." At this point, Su Tong glanced at Wang Chong and saw that he didn't express anything, so he continued:

"Of course, not all positions require spending money. Some important departments and positions, such as directors, assistant directors, lighting, and positions related to film quality, all require spending money and hiring experts to do them."

"For other unimportant positions, just recruit people normally. There are a lot of people like this in the industry. They are considered to be at the bottom of the industry and won't care about being banned."

"As for actors, we really can't recruit people, so we can only try to choose some unknown or outdated actors to play supporting roles, or even boldly cast new actors. However, in this case, the risk may be much greater.

."

After listening for a long time, Su Tong didn't mean to finish his sentence. Wang Chong coughed and interrupted Su Tong, "Sister Tong, I know what you mean. Just tell me, how much does it cost?"

Su Tong heard that Wang Chong was not interested in these details, so she stopped talking and directly followed Wang Chong's wishes and said, "Well, it shouldn't be too much. For the first film, we are going to shoot it with a small budget."

A movie might cost around 300 million."

Wang Chong recalled what Yu Manling said when she approached him for investment, and couldn't help but ask, "The first phase investment is 300 million?"

Yu Manling couldn't help but let out a "puff" and laughed out loud, obviously understanding what Wang Chong meant by asking this question.

Su Tong was suddenly a little confused. Could it be that Wang Chong was happy with what he said? Why couldn't she find the point of laughter at all?

Su Tong turned around and glared at Yu Manling, then said to Wang Chong, "Mr. Wang, the total investment is 300 million."

Wang Chong nodded, he could afford three hundred million, so it was not a problem.

However, a small cost is only 300 million, so in the future, large-scale productions will cost tens or even tens of billions.

The inflation in the world of magic pets seems to be a bit severe, and he has to make money faster.

Without some capital, it is really difficult to create a popular international superstar.

Fortunately, the Coconut Melon Tree Demon King brought him a lot of benefits.

The Coconut Melon Tree Demon King can drop coconut melon bombs with any expression every day. At an average price of 8.5 million each, a Coconut Melon Tree Demon King can get 30 bombs in 30 days a month.

Coconut melon bombs are a hot commodity. There is no backlog of inventory at the moment and they can all be sold. In that month, he could sell 250 million yuan. After deducting one-third of the profit, he could still get 170 million yuan.

.You can earn 1 billion in six months. Even if you rob a treasury, you can’t earn so fast.

Making a movie does not require funds to be provided in one go, and can be provided in batches. After deducting the expenses of Yu Manling's studio, his remaining funds can fully support the expenditure of 600 million within half a year, and there is even a lot left.

Wang Chong thought about it and said, "Just now you said you were going to spend money on those experts to film this movie, right?"

"Yes." Su Tong nodded. She thought that Wang Chong felt that the money was not worth the money. After all, Wang Chong was an outsider in the circle and didn't know much about it, so she explained, "Those people are all in the circle.

They are all professionals who have worked hard for many years. They all have strong skills and extensive qualifications.”

"We can pay a lot of money to hire them. In fact, they are worth it. After all, we can only hire them through relationships and favors."

Wang Chong asked, "How much more salary did you give them?"

Su Tong replied, "The salary of 1.5 times is just a preliminary figure. Some may have to increase it to 1.6 or 1.7 times to impress them..."

Wang Chong thought for a while and said directly, "It's not safe enough to spend favors after all. So let's do this. Don't waste the hard-earned favors. Just give them at least twice the salary."

Su Tong opened his mouth slightly and looked at Wang Chong with a surprised look on his face.

"If 2 times is not enough, then add more, 2.5 times, or even 3 times will do!"

Su Tong's mouth opened wider and wider, her mind was a little blank, she wanted to explain and dissuade.

But before she opened her mouth, Wang Chong said seriously, "Don't think I'm joking, I'm serious!"

"You also said that this first battle is a life-and-death battle for Man Ling's acting career. We can only win, not lose!"

"There's nothing wrong with spending more money. What's important is that Man Ling must win this opening battle!"

"So, we will give them a higher salary. If they are not willing to come, then we will pay them three times the price, so that they can come and work for us happily. Let's make this movie well together.

"

Su Tong swallowed and couldn't help but persuade, "But this will increase the budget by at least thirty to forty million!"

"Only thirty or forty million?" Wang Chong sneered: "I thought there would be three to four hundred million more? Flowers, bold flowers!"

Su Tong's mouth couldn't be closed at all, and she stared blankly at Wang Chong. While Yu Manling on the side still maintained her elegant posture, the surprise and smile on her face could no longer be concealed.

It was obviously very interesting for her to see that Su Tong's prediction was wrong, especially because Wang Chong supported her as always, which made her extremely happy.

Speaking of this, Wang Chong looked at Su Tong and said, "I don't know much about the entertainment industry, but I still have a little money. Since you said everything can be solved with money, then we will use money to give Man Ling

Create a shining path to stardom!"

After listening to Wang Chong's heroic words, Su Tong didn't come back to her senses for a long time. She stretched out her slightly trembling hand, picked up the water on the table, and drank it all in one gulp. The cold water finally made herself sober.

Then, she looked at Wang Chong and asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Wang, maybe I'm a little abrupt in asking this. But this is also related to Man Ling's future career development and your source of funds..."

If it is not a legitimate source of funds, once it is exposed, the blow to Yu Manling will sometimes be fatal, and it is very likely to directly ruin her acting career.

Su Tong actually also quietly investigated Wang Chong, but the results puzzled her because Wang Chong seemed to be from an ordinary family in Guining City, with better qualifications and the hope of becoming a professional pet master.

But qualifications are qualifications. After all, he is not close to a true professional-level pet master. Even if he is a true professional-level pet master, it is not that easy to spend hundreds of millions of real money all at once.

Not to mention Wang Chong, a student who just graduated from high school.

Su Tong has been in the industry for many years and has experienced too many things. She is not Yu Manling. She will believe Wang Chong's casual words. If there is no real evidence, it is really difficult for her not to doubt the legitimate source of Wang Chong's funds.

sex.

After all, a lot of shady funds are laundered from the entertainment industry.

Thinking of this, Su Tong really had to re-examine Wang Chonglai. His heroic appearance of not taking money seriously is really hard not to make people think. Where does his confidence come from?

Su Tong stared at Wang Chong, wanting to wait for a reply.

Seeing Su Tong's serious and nervous look, Wang Chong smiled and said, "I am very familiar with Kang Duanjun of the Kang family in Yongning City..."

The Kang family of Yongning City, who has a diamond professional level boss? The genius pet master Kang Duanjun, one of the candidates for the direct head of the Kang family?

Upon hearing what Wang Chong said, Su Tong's pupils dilated and a smile filled his face.

Even if Wang Chong didn't say any more, she understood everything! This was completely consistent with the gossip she had found out!

It turns out that the Kang family is really supporting Wang Chong!

Su Tong, who almost turned into a flower with laughter, almost nodded and bowed, "I understand, Mr. Wang, I understand! Don't worry, with sufficient financial support, we will definitely live up to your expectations and work hard to produce the best results."

Good work.”

Wang Chong didn't say anything else, just nodded with a smile and said, "Okay. Then I will wait for your good news. You don't have to save money for me. As long as it is helpful to Man Ling, you can just spend money boldly.

Be bold and do it!”
