Super Resort System

Chapter 88 Interview

Because he was going to receive Xu Qinghai tomorrow, Li Yang stayed at the construction site for a while, then called Wangcai back and drove back to the capital. On the way back, Li Yang specially called Jigu Ayi and asked about Heitan, Doug , Orange and Oscar whether any guests have booked to sleep with them.

"There is no reservation, Brother Yang, what's wrong?" Jigu Ayi said.

"The four cats don't accept any reservations tonight. After the cafe closes in the evening, you can bring the four of them to my house!" Li Yang said.

"Okay Brother Yang!"

The next afternoon, Xu Qinghai came to Youmao Inn as scheduled. Xu Qinghai was not tall and looked very ordinary. He wore thick glasses, a sweater on the top, jeans on the bottom, sneakers on his feet, and a back Backpack.

If he hadn't introduced himself and said he was Xu Qinghai, Li Yang wouldn't have believed that the person in front of him was the director on the phone yesterday, and he seemed like a programmer.

On the contrary, the other man who followed him looked very much like the director. The man was dressed in hip-hop, with long hair and a small braid. In addition, there was a man and a woman with them.

After Xu Qinghai's introduction, Li Yang also knew that the man with pigtails was the assistant director Archie, and the other man and woman were pet trainer Zhou Kai and female screenwriter Jiang Lai.

Since the cat is the real protagonist in this movie, the entire crew attaches great importance to the choice of cats, so so many people came. Moreover, the pet actors are not like humans. It is enough to audition for their acting skills. The pet is filming. The process requires the cooperation of professional pet trainers. They also need to get in touch with pets to feel their personalities, to see if it is easier to control, to evaluate the difficulty of shooting, and so on.

"Your business is really hot here!" Xu Qinghai said with a smile, looking at the cats in the hall, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, "Why didn't you see Heitan and Doug?"

"They are in my residence, because I considered that there are customers in the store during the day, which is not very convenient, so I brought them home last night!" Li Yang said.

"Oh, let's chat at your house then!" Xu Qinghai also understood.

The four followed Li Yang to his residence. As soon as they entered the house, Wang Cai shouted vigilantly. Li Yang stopped quickly, and then locked Wang Cai in the guest room.

"Yes, just these four little guys?" Xu Qinghai saw the four cats playing in the room at a glance, and smiled. He had studied all Li Yang's Douyin videos repeatedly in the past two days, and he could recognize it at a glance. out of these four cats.

"Well, the appearance is very consistent!" Screenwriter Jiang Lai's eyes also lit up. From the appearance alone, these four cats are very similar to the four characters in the movie.

"Meow, meow—" Seeing Xu Qinghai and others, the cats not only were not afraid to run away, but instead came over one after another, meowing, and even the oranges ran to Xu Qinghai's feet unscrupulously, rubbing and rubbing. .

"Pretty good!" The trainer Zhou Kai squatted down and scratched Oscar's little head, but Oscar didn't even recognize him.

Seeing these four close and cute cats, Xu Qinghai and the others instantly became cat-sucking guests, each holding a cat and stroking non-stop. Li Yang really doubted whether they came to choose roles or to suck cats for free. .

Li Yang came over and gave them a detailed introduction to the characters of the four guys: "Especially this orange cat, as long as there is something to eat, he can do whatever he wants, a guy with absolutely no morals, I'll show you guys later, you guys will understood!"

Li Yang showed Xu Qinghai and the others the specialties of the four cats one after another, making Xu Qinghai and the others smile and happy.

"How do you feel about them?" asked the assistant director named Archie.

"Very good! Director Xu also showed me the video yesterday. These little guys are really smart, and Boss Li has also trained them a lot, so they are relatively easy to control.

At least it's easier than those cats we've seen before! "

"Where's Jiang Lai?" Xu Qinghai looked at Jiang Lai.

"I'm sure there's no problem here, these guys' image and temperament are very in line with the characters!" Jiang Lai smiled slightly.

"In that case, let's decide on these four little guys!" Xu Qinghai said, in fact, he has spent a lot of time choosing the cat role at this stage.

There are dozens of cats that I have seen before and after, but none of them are particularly satisfactory.

In the film and television industry, there are three most difficult scenes to film, one is water play, one is children's play, and the other is animal play.

And cat play is even more difficult, after all, cats are relatively difficult to control, so in order to make it easier to shoot, and in order to better present a real and perfect effect, he is still very strict in the selection of cats.

"Okay, it's ok if you think there is no problem!" Everyone gave Xu Qinghai a positive look.

Xu Qinghai introduced the plot of the movie to Li Yang, and then talked in detail about the cat's appearance fee, as well as the follow-up shooting and cooperation.

This time the movie is adapted from a novel, and it has a fan base in itself. The box office is estimated to be more than 50 million, but according to the original budget plan of the crew, the appearance fee of a cat is at most 200,000.

But considering that Li Yang's cat itself is an Internet celebrity cat, the entire Internet has tens of millions of fans and traffic, and he has just been on the Happy Big Board Camp, which will greatly help and guarantee the film's later promotion and box office.

Moreover, the cat itself has been specially trained, which will be of great help to the shooting and overall presentation, which can greatly save manpower and material resources, and even shorten the shooting cycle by half.

Therefore, after the final negotiation, Xu Qinghai finally negotiated this cooperation with Li Yang at a total price of 3 million, including the appearance fee of the four cats and the post-promotion cooperation of the film.

Although Li Yang doesn't know how to price this thing, the price has met his expectations, and this is a win-win situation. If the cat's participation in the movie can be successful, then the value can definitely be doubled in the future. Advertising cooperation There should be no shortage of cooperation with film and television.

"Okay, I can accept the price! When will you start shooting? About how long the shooting will take, I need to make arrangements in advance!" Li Yang asked.

"If it's decided today, we should start it next week, and the story about cats will take about two months to shoot!" Xu Qinghai said.

"Okay, the contract is..."

"In this way, we won't leave today. I'll ask the legal counsel to send the contract over at night. After you confirm that it's correct, we'll sign the contract, and the money will be called to you immediately. We'll take the cat directly this time. What do you think? ?" Xu Qinghai said.

"Yes, but the safety of cats, I hope to be absolutely guaranteed!" Li Yang also said what he cares about. This kind of cooperation needs to be frank and open with each other. All problems should be brought to the front to avoid trouble A happy ending.

"You have a hundred hearts, we are more concerned about the safety of cats than you, we will equip them with specialized veterinarians and nutritionists to ensure that they are healthy, after all, we do not want them to have any problems than you. , if half of the filming is completed, any cat will not be able to appear, which is a huge waste and a blow to our initial investment, you say yes! And we will also formulate compensation clauses in our contract, you can absolutely rest assured!"

"Okay, let's go down according to your process!" Li Yang smiled.
