Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

v1 Chapter 254: I give you a chance to crush Mecca

"In middle school, we signed Miss Hong Kong's sixth place, the shortest Weng Meiling, and signed a long-term contract with her."

After hanging up Zhang Guozhong's phone, Xu Cun said to Lizhi in his arms, "Baby, help me ask Mr. Slag for tea later."

After being developed by Xu Cun for a while, Lizhi's figure is even more popular!

At this moment, Li Zhi, who was sitting on Xu Cun's lap, was wantonly provoked by Xu Cun, in order to divert her attention, she said, "You don't want Jin Yong's drama on Phoenix Stage, do you? I heard that the adaptation fee is very expensive, is it worth it?"

Whether it is the history of the 21st century or the history of the 1980s, it has been proved that Jin Yong dramas are the guarantee of ratings.

It's just that the copyright fee for Jin Yong's drama is too expensive - a Jin Yong drama is shot, and the copyright fee for Jin Yong almost accounts for half of the production cost. Inexpensive cologne drama.

(Note: Most of the actors in the TV station are paid a fixed salary, so the labor costs when shooting TV series are generally included in the TV station’s administrative budget. That is to say, the production cost does not include the work of producer, director, screenwriter, actor, etc. staff remuneration.)

Xu Cun put his hand into Lizhi's skirt and said, "The more expensive it is, the more expensive it is, Xiangjiang is so big, if there is Phoenix, there will be no TVB, and if there is TVB, there will be no Phoenix... Since I extend my hand Once you enter the Phoenix Terrace, the one that doesn't have it must not be the Phoenix Terrace!"

Speaking of which, Li Zhi, who had already been teased by Xu Cun who was no longer wanted, first pulled Xu Cun's hands out of her clothes and from her skirt, then slid down Xu Cun's body, and then squatted on the ground Actively stretched out his hand to Xu Cun's belt...

...

"Brother Cun..."

When the "God of Gamblers" crew started their lunch break, Shi Nansheng, who had been waiting for a long time, came to Xu Cun's side.

Seeing Shi Nansheng's reluctance to speak, Xu Cun knew that Shi Nansheng was begging for a private matter. Then he joked: "Who has such a face to make us Damei Shi wait for me here for more than two hours?"

Xu Cun's joke made Shi Nansheng feel relieved! Then, Shi Nansheng felt a little embarrassed and said, "Brother Cun, Xu Ke wants to invite you to a cup of tea."

Today, Xu Keke is far from getting along so well in his last life.

First of all, the success of Xu Kelai's transformational film "Ghosts and Wisdom of Stars" is far less brilliant than that of the previous life.

Let's start with the box office.

In the last life, "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars" helped Xinyicheng defeat the two major companies Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest for the first time with a box office of 7.5 million.

In this life, because of the collision with "Interstellar Blunt", which was directed by Chen Xunqi and starred by the three Xu brothers, the box office of "Ghost Horse Wisdom and Many Stars" was nearly 2 million less than that of the previous life. On the box office charts, "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars" also changed from third to eleventh.

As a result, "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars" has directly become a relatively mediocre film at the box office.

And Shaw Brothers' "Interstellar Blunt", Golden Harvest's "Cannonball Speed", "Summer Fortune", "Modern Bodyguard", DreamWorks' "Zombie Family", "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation", "Chasing Girls" and even "Dragon Ninja" and "The Fierce List", "Super Chasing Girls" in Xinyicheng, are far more dazzling than "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars".

Let's talk about awards.

In the last life, Xu Ke won the Best Director Award at the 18th Golden Horse Awards for his "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars".

In this life, there are so many good films in 1981, and Xu Cun's version of "Knife Horse Dancing" is a roadblock, so that Xu Ke did not even get a nomination at the Golden Horse Awards.

Without the brilliant achievements of "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars", Xu Ke would not be able to enter the ranks of first-class directors.

And Xu Ke's biggest sadness is not because the achievements of "Ghost Horse Wisdom Stars" are not as good as the previous life, Xu Ke's greatest sadness is that his virtuous assistant Shi Nansheng was dug into DreamWorks by Xu Cun early.

Without Shi Nansheng's help, Xu Ke's status in Xinyicheng was not only one or two points lower than in the previous life - now, Xu Ke is a director who is a little better than other directors in Xinyicheng. He couldn't get into Lei Juekun's eyes at all, and Lei Juekun had no intention of opening a studio for Xu Ke at all.

Xu Ke was very unhappy in Xinyi City!

Since the great success of "Best Partner" by Mecca and others, Xinyicheng has added a rule: once Mecca, Shi Tian, ​​and Huang Baiming have set the script, no one (including the director) will be allowed. Modifications without authorization. For example, after Mecca came to the company every day, the first thing to do was to go to the editing room to watch the scene shot by the director the day before. Once he found that there was a discrepancy with the scene where the three of them went out, it was often a warning, and the two Substitution, no sympathy to talk about.

Xu Ke is a director with his own ideas. He is not suitable for the creative mode of Xinyicheng! Therefore, a long time ago, Xu Ke, who was very unhappy in Xinyi City, had the intention of leaving Xinyi City.

The fuse that prompted Xu Ke to invite Xu Cun to dinner was: A few days ago, Xu Ke showed Mecca the script adapted from the fantasy martial arts novel "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" by the owner of Huanzhu, and applied for a production fee of 5 million yuan. . As a result, Mecca, who was directly frustrated by the production cost of 5 million, scolded Xu Ke mercilessly without even looking at the script that Xu Ke brought.

Being insulted by Mecca, Xu Ke's mood can be imagined!

In his rage, Xu Ke didn't want to eat soft rice or not. He directly found his girlfriend Shi Nansheng and asked Shi Nansheng to help him meet Xu Cun.

...

The Peninsula Hotel Tea Restaurant.

"...Only five hundred~lightnovelpub.net~ no, four million in production fee, I can make this fantasy martial arts movie for you, Mr. Xu." Xu Ke is reading the script of "New Shushan Swordsman" Xu Cundao.

Xu deposited the giant pit of "The Swordsman of New Shushan", no, the script, and then bluntly said: "With this movie, you can't get revenge."

Xu Ke frowned and glanced at Shi Nansheng - Xu Kewei, Shi Nansheng told Xu Cun about the grievance between him and Mecca.

Seeing this, Xu Cun said: "Xiangjiang is so big. You left Xinyi City on the front foot, and the incident on the back foot spread to DreamWorks, and I happened to hear about it."

Hearing what Xu Cun said, Xu Ke felt even more ashamed! So, with a look of resentment, he said, "Mr. Xu, I will definitely revise the script, please give me a chance to take revenge!"

Glancing at Shi Nansheng, who was sitting beside Xu Ke, Xu Cun said to Xu Ke, "You are Nansheng's boyfriend, not an outsider, so I'll just say it—the script you brought is not good. Besides, don't Say it is four million, five million, even if the production cost is doubled, you will not be able to make the movie you want... I will not bet on this movie that is destined to hit the street. "

After Xu Cun finished speaking, Xu Ke's expression instantly exaggerated!

He glanced at Shi Nansheng, who had no waves in the ancient well, and Xu Cun's voice softened and said, "Nansheng is an old man from the start-up period of my DreamWorks, and has been my most important right-hand man over the years. Three or four years have passed... At that time, Nan Sheng was a beautiful woman in the 27th or 8th year, and now she's more than 30 years old, and all the good youth was wasted on my dream factory."

After a pause, Xu Cun looked at Xu Ke and said, "Look back, I will write a script for you myself, and give you a production fee of 50 million... I will give you a chance to crush Mecca!"
