Chapter 181: Accompany the prince to study

Views:

Old Zhou left with a sad face.

Many people in the composition department on the tenth floor noticed that Lao Zhou didn't seem quite right when he left.

What's going on

After chatting with Representative Lin for a few minutes, why did it feel like our Boss Zhou was about to cry

Naturally, no one would understand the reason.

Lao Zhou did not return to his office, but went directly to the top floor and knocked on the chairman's door.

"Come in."

A majestic voice came from inside.

After Lao Zhou entered the room, he took a deep breath and said, "Something happened."

"What's wrong?"

Li Songhua frowned: "Is there a problem with the Film and Television Department?"

Lao Zhou shook his head: "Xianyu wants to make a movie..."

Li Songhua raised his eyebrows: "You didn't refuse?"

"I couldn't refuse. When Lei Ting Entertainment called Xianyu, I was sitting opposite him. Although there was a high probability that Xianyu would not change jobs, I really didn't dare to take the gamble!" Lao Zhou felt his blood pressure rising a little.

Of course some of it is fake.

If I don't act excited, how can this person understand my own difficulties

Li Songhua was silent for three seconds and said, "Then let him play."

With Li Songhua's words, Lao Zhou's mood eased a little: "Then I should control the cost? Although I don't quite understand the content of his script, the investment should not be large. The film department..."

"I'll say hello."

Li Songhua said with a headache, "Just think of it as letting them accompany the prince to study. Transfer the idle personnel to him. If he wants to do something about it, let him do it. Our work focus cannot be disrupted. Thunderstorm is the first movie of our company. If this movie is successful, let him do whatever he wants with the minor parts."

"You are so generous."

Lao Zhou gave a thumbs up.

The company's top boss has nodded his head, so it is not Zhou's turn to take responsibility for this matter.

He just needs to reduce Lin Yuan's costs as much as possible.

In fact, even if Lin Yuan wanted to make some trouble, he couldn't make much noise.

Because the company has launched a film project called "Thunderstorm" and it is about to enter the shooting stage.

The investment cost of this film is over 100 million yuan, and additional investment may be made later.

Almost half of Xingmang’s film department revolves around this movie.

There is not much money or manpower left.

At most, they could barely put together a small crew for Lin Yuan and let him have fun on his own.

Let the child amuse himself.

"Then I'm leaving. This child is spoiled now..." Old Zhou muttered and left.

Li Songhua glanced at his back and said, "Stop pretending. I won't pay you."

Old Zhou paused, coughed, and left quickly.

Li Songhua reminded from a distance: "Keep the cost within 10 million."

"knew."

Old Zhou quickly agreed.

Simply put, the company plans to spend several million, or even tens of millions, to make Xianyu happy. If Xiao Qu's father is happy, he will naturally not go to other companies.

The market has been unstable recently.

The sea of sand is a lesson for us.

People like Qu's father can just leave at any time.

What if Xianyu is unhappy and goes to another company

The loss would not be a matter of hundreds of millions or tens of millions, and the company is particularly clear about this matter.

So Lao Zhou chose to let Xianyu do whatever he wanted.

Anyway, Li Songhua is already prepared for his investment to go down the drain.

Just because Lao Zhou can see things clearly doesn’t mean that everyone can.

Anyway, when the supervisors in the film department heard that a representative from the composition department was going to make a movie.

There was almost unanimous opposition from top to bottom!

"Are you kidding me?"

"People from the composition department are going to make a movie?"

"Is this step too big?"

"Our company's film department has just been established and can't afford to be tossed around."

"Now the entire film department is focusing on the Thunderstorm project. How can we have the energy to take care of another project?"

"… "

Old Zhou said faintly: "The chairman agreed."

This sentence killed everyone instantly.

Everyone shut up tactfully.

This is why Lao Zhou went to see the chairman first. As long as the chairman nods, there will be no resistance.

A middle manager said helplessly: "Just shoot it, the problem is that everyone wants to join Director Du and Writer Zhang's team..."

Director Du is Du An and writer Zhang is Zhang Yu.

The former is a top director in Qizhou, and the latter is a top screenwriter in Qizhou.

These two are big names in the film and television industry that Star Mang had finally recruited. Thunderstorm is the work of these two core members of the crew.

In the film department, anyone with a little ability wants to join the crew of these two people.

This emerging film department has been scrambling for this matter recently.

At this time, if we set up a film crew for Lin Yuan, I'm afraid not many people would be willing to join.

"It's all right."

Lao Zhou said: "Let the two bosses choose first, and put the rest into Lin Yuan's crew. We have recruited so many people, and everyone has the basic business capabilities."

Someone said: "I'm afraid they won't be willing..."

Lao Zhou glared and said, "They are rebelling. If anyone dares not to go, I will talk to him!"

Everyone stopped talking.

After a long while, someone finally said, "Then what about investment..."

Lao Zhou waved his hand: "I'll call and ask."

He walked to another room and called Lin Yuan: "The company can film your script, but the investment may not be too high."

"How many can there be?"

"Probably a few million."

"How about nine million?"

"this… "

Lin Yuan said: "Isn't it several million?"

Lao Zhou: “…”

Two million is still considered several million.

Nine million is still a few million.

You asked for the maximum limit in one breath

He tried to remain calm. After all, the chairman had already said, "Okay, I'll try to get 9 million. There's no money for the follow-up. The company can't give you additional investment!"

"oh."

Lin Yuan was already satisfied with the nine million.

Although he didn't know much about the market, he could still roughly judge the cost of "A Chinese Odyssey: Part One - Fragrance".

"That's it."

"Wait, there's something else."

Lao Zhou's heart skipped a beat: "What's the matter?"

Lin Yuan replied: "You can't change my script."

Lao Zhou smiled bitterly: "No, no, anyone who wants to change this earth-shattering and soul-stirring work must pass my test first!"

"Thanks."

“It should be.”

Lao Zhou hung up the phone, wiped the sweat off his head as if he had just finished a battle, and then adjusted his mood and returned to the meeting room: "It is agreed that the investment for this project is 9 million."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone can see the situation clearly.

To put it bluntly, this project was clearly given to the representative of the composition department for fun, which shows that the representative must have a very high position in the company.

But nine million isn't a lot...

Compared to a project like "Thunderstorm" that may require an investment of over 100 million yuan, nine million is just a drop in the bucket, just a small amount.

"Then let him play."

The deputy director of the film department said helplessly: "When will the script be delivered? Even though it's nonsense, we will do our best."

"The script cannot be changed."

Old Zhou said, "It's definitely over."

Everyone looked at Lao Zhou with complicated expressions.

Finally, a middle-level manager who was familiar with Lao Zhou asked quietly, "Is this representative from the composition department the son of the chairman?"

Most of these people do not know how to compose music, so naturally they do not understand the significance of Xianyu to Xingmang.

Lao Zhou understands everyone’s thoughts.

He waved his hand again and said, "Just treat him as Xingmang's eldest son and serve him well. It's a child's nature to love playing. Don't let me catch him saying weird things behind his back."

Everyone curled their lips.

Even if I wanted to say something, I wouldn't dare. At most I could just say a few words in my heart.

The chairman allowed this guy to mess around, which shows that his position in the company is definitely not something that ordinary people can afford to offend.

It was really just to accompany the prince to study.
