When Xie Zhaoyan heard this, she resisted and did not roll her eyes, she was speechless: "Where am I going to spend his money? Am I short of money myself!"
Chu Xiaxing sighed regretfully: "So it's not Lao Xu's money, so I can't ask for it."
Xie Zhaoyan: "?"
Xie Zhaoyan raised her eyebrows: "Wait, you didn't say it was not appropriate to spend Lao Xu's money, why are you now..."
Chu Xiaxing: "But it's even more inappropriate to spend your money. It's not that you don't understand my rules. I don't spend money from relatives and friends for filming!"
This was Chu Xiaxing's habit. She would never invest money in filming by herself, and secondly, she would not use money from relatives and friends to film. Even though it is said that she has never made money-losing scenes, she has never taken a risk in this regard and will never put herself in danger.
Xie Zhaoyan was stunned for a moment, and then murmured, "Why do you still have this problem? It's common for people with good relationships to invest money in each other."
In the film and television industry, friends often partner to open companies. Some companies are prosperous, and some companies have broken relationships.
Chu Xiaxing: "That's someone else, I'm me, we can be colleagues or friends, but once you get involved with money, you're Party A, I'm Party B, and your attitudes will be very different."
Xie Zhaoyan: "I will not bully you as Party A..."
Chu Xiaxing glanced at her and said frankly, "That's what I'm worried about, you don't have any requirements for me as Party A, and I'm not good for you as Party B, so in the end the project won't work, and it's all delayed by favor. "
Chu Xiaxing has a good relationship with Chu Qiuyi and Xie Zhaoyan, but that doesn't mean they can work on projects together. Chu Xiaxing is the director and Xie Zhaoyan is the actor. This relationship is very suitable. However, when they become the relationship between the employer and the producer, the status will be very different, and they will have new requirements for each other.
Chu Xiaxing: "If it's a project I'm filming and you're doing, then maybe there's a possibility of cooperation. If it's just a project that you invested in and I'm going to shoot, just forget it!"
"Actually, I'm not that interested in sci-fi police and gangster films, but it's been a long time since I cooperated with you..." Xie Zhaoyan whispered, "I actually want to play you more, but your script is so difficult to write."
Xie Zhaoyan was even more interested in playing Chu Xiaxing, but her movie script was not going well. It was impossible for Chu Xiaxing herself to help with the script. She allowed Xie Zhaoyan to prepare her own script, which was considered generous, but it would be difficult for her to describe herself.
It is difficult to describe oneself objectively, let alone write it into a script, and it is more or less subjective.
Chu Xiaxing sighed with a smile: "Hey, so it turns out that you want to pay for the publicity and use the money of one play to make material for another play, so you can't let you vote in it!"
Chu Xiaxing: I co-produced a sci-fi police and gangster film with you, but you want to accumulate materials for my biography
Xie Zhaoyan was rejected by Chu Xiaxing, and she was not too disappointed. Both of them knew that sci-fi films were not easy to make, so they quickly talked about other things and forgot about it.
Xia Hong is actively screening companies that come to inquire. Although he is not very smart, he still has the patience to deal with chores. Fanke Films recently picked up a new movie for Zhou Xuelu. This is the first time she has left Chu Xiaxing to film a movie, and it can be regarded as a gradual move towards independence.
In addition to Zhou Xuelu's itinerary, Xia Hong spent the rest of his time meeting with the company he found, reporting its situation to Director Chu, and trying to find a partner.
When Chu Xiaxing just became popular on the Internet, Xia Hong was ecstatic to meet the overwhelmed collaborators, but his excitement was quickly quenched by cold water, because Director Chu was too picky!
"This company is unreliable at first glance. The profile looks like a lot of flowers, but the capital chain may be broken at any time..." Chu Xiaxing put aside the company profile in her hand, she frowned and picked up another one, "This company The company is completely a money-only type, and it is estimated that it can’t help at all in terms of production.”
"This is not very good, this is not very good... ugh... "
Xia Hong watched her flip through the documents, his heart was dripping with blood, and he said sadly: "Director, let's take a look, let's take a good look, it's really not possible to make multiple joint votes, don't reject all of them. !"
Xia Hong originally thought that he had recruited enough companies, but he never thought that there would be no slag left in the blink of an eye.
Seeing his bitter face, Chu Xiaxing said helplessly: "I really didn't mean to jam you, it's just that sci-fi movies are very special effects, and the production requirements are indeed high."
After the "24 Frames of Light and Shadow" program was broadcast, countless film and television companies came to seek cooperation, but to be honest, there was a follow-up attitude. Because Chu Xiaxing is currently a topical topic on the Internet, they can't wait to visit the door, but they may not have the real information.
Chu Xiaxing could make a ten-minute special effects short film, but if he wanted to make a feature film, the original special effects company was not enough, and he needed to go to a higher level. At the same time, the expansion of short films will affect the story, and the team also needs to incubate new scripts that match, which is not an easy task.
Chu Xiaxing and Xia Hong were chatting when they suddenly heard a knock on the door of the conference room, and they were all surprised.
"Please come in!"
The next second, Song Wenye politely pushed the door into the house, greeted the two of them in the house, and closed the door.
Xia Hong looked at the friend who suddenly visited, and he muttered in surprise: "What wind is blowing our President Song?"
The working atmosphere of Fanke Films is relatively active, and everyone only gathers here occasionally, and Song Wenye rarely shows up.
"Director Chu is famous for the spring breeze." Song Wenye held up the information bag in his hand and shook it, he said calmly, "Suddenly I remembered that I haven't come to work here for a long time, I'm not afraid that President Xia will fire me, so I come here. One trip."
Chu Xiaxing saw Song Wenye holding the information bag, she seemed to have guessed the contents, and naturally reached out to him. Song Wenye didn't refuse. He directly handed her the things in his hand, quite tacitly.
Neither of the two mentioned the agreement by the lake at night, but they both knew what the top priority was.
Sure enough, Chu Xiaxing opened the information bag and saw the project information. This was a well-known game company that wanted to shoot an IP movie, and even had a biography and a story outline. "Thunder Holy War" is a mobile game with amazing daily flow. The background of the game is set in the future era. The game style is exquisite and cool, which inexplicably fits with Chu Xiaxing's police and bandit short films.
There are a variety of game characters in this game, and the movie story revolves around the "gun saint". He is a character who uses two guns. Although he is only a paper man in the game, he is very popular on the Internet.
The game world view of "Thunder Crusade" is extremely huge, and there are many branch lines of various characters, showing its IP layout ambitions. It is worth mentioning that the special effects animation of the game company is excellent, even surpassing many animation and special effects companies, so that many netizens jokingly call it "animation with heart and games with feet".
All in all, this project has money, stories, and special effects. It is simply the best choice.
Chu Xiaxing looked at Song Wenye in disbelief. She suddenly felt sleepy and someone handed a pillow, tsk tsk and said with emotion, "It's really a pity that Mr. Song didn't get into politics. You are too good at trying to figure out what other people think."
People in the official career get things done before the leader speaks, and they have to solve their worries and problems in advance. If Song Wenye were to be the secretary of the big bosses, he would probably rise to the top in a few years.
Chu Xiaxing: This is a flawless tool man.
Xia Hong was not surprised by Song Wenye's ability to work, but when he saw Director Chu buried in the information, he still couldn't help but sourly said: "The hard work is not worth the credit, after all, I paid by mistake..."
"Xiao Xia, do your best, keep going!" After Chu Xiaxing clenched her fists to encourage Xia Hong, she immediately got up in a polite manner and said with a smile in the business office, "President Song, sit down, it's been a long time since you came to the company, would you like something to drink? ?"
Chu Xiaxing is such a realistic director. As long as the other party's project is reliable, he can switch the business face with one click!
Xia Hong saw Director Chu's book-turning attitude, and heard her address differently: "..." Is this the utilitarian and hypocritical world of adults
When Xia Hong heard the words, he let out a mournful wailing, and then ran to pour water for Song Wenye. Whoever makes the two pillars of Fanke Films in front of him not be able to offend him.
Song Wenye explained: "Wan Junhao had the idea of making an IP movie a long time ago, but there has never been a suitable production team. It happens that Director Chu's work has been hotly debated recently, so I said to see if it can be done. Cooperation… "
Wan Jun is the game production company of "Thunder Crusade", which is inextricably linked with Yuansheng Group. Of course, Yuansheng Group itself is not much involved in the film and television industry, so there is no rush for the film. This time, it was obvious that Song Wenye had done work in private, otherwise such a good project would not have been found in the short term.
Xia Hong asked curiously, "Didn't you have something to do with Wan Jun before? Are you responsible this time?"
Song Wenye looked hesitant to speak, and Chu Xiaxing replied: "Film and television is not the main business of Yuansheng Group. It is estimated that it is impossible to send President Song over. It is indeed a bit overkill."
Song Wenye is already a senior executive of the group, Wan Jun is part of Yuansheng Group's business, and IP movies are only part of Wanjun's business, so he is unlikely to come and do it himself. Chu Xiaxing roughly guessed that he was building steps for herself. She had to have a few works she could produce before she had the opportunity to participate in the Yanchuan Film and Television City.
Xia Hong showed regret: "Oh, I thought there were people in the DPRK who were easy to handle, it would be easy if you could take care of it..."
Xia Hong: If Song Wenye was in charge, wouldn't he be able to use his father to deceive others
Song Wenye reassured: "I'm not sure who is in charge now, but the people in Wanjunli are still familiar with it, so it shouldn't be a problem."
Song Wenye always spoke and acted carefully, so Chu Xiaxing and Xia Hong didn't have too many concerns. After all, the person in charge sent by the company is only involved in the project, and should not speak too much about the production, which has less impact on the overall work.
However, no one expected that the accident would come so quickly. Song Wenye was still familiar with Wan Jun's people, but the person in charge of IP Movies was not from Wan Jun.
Chu Xiaxing had just left the editing room of "Wu Dao", she was going to visit Fanke Film as usual, but she suddenly received a call from Xia Hong, and heard his fiery voice: "Director Chu, you haven't gotten in the car yet, have you? Don't come to the company today, the person in charge of IP Movies is here, I just couldn't get through to Song Wenye... "
Song Wenye often has to attend group meetings, and his mobile phone is occasionally muted. He can only call back after the meeting is over.
Chu Xiaxing said in surprise: "Then why shouldn't I come over? Have to meet the person in charge of the film?"
Chu Xiaxing didn't understand Xia Hong's panic. If she was the person in charge of IP Movies, she would meet him sooner or later.
Xia Hong glanced at Duan Chengyan in the room. The other party was sitting bored in the conference room, looking at the arrangement of Fanke Pictures with great interest. He didn't seem to be leaving for a short time. Xia Hong's mood is delicate now. He can't wait for Song Wenye to be the person in charge, and he can't use his power to bully others. He still has to face this troublesome first-class young master. The psychological gap is too big
Xia Hong turned his head and said with a headache: "The person in charge of the film is actually Duan Chengyan. Let Song Wenye handle this matter. Director Chu, don't come here for now!"
Xia Hong already knew that Duan Chengyan loves to fight against Song Wenye, but he really didn't expect that the other party would be the director of the film, which is even more terrifying than Duan Chengyan being the villain in the group.
Xia Hong: It's not terrible for the eldest young master to be a villain. It's too deadly to be a teammate by force. Who can lead such a dish? It's enough to have me as a bastard in the team!
