Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 339 New Shanghai Bund starts

Since everyone is interested.

Then the next step is how to implement it.

At Li Luo's call.

The three women sat on the sofa with great interest and continued to listen to his next arrangements.

"Is such that."

Li Luo thought about it and said to them quickly: "We must get the money as soon as possible. The sooner the better. No one can tell when others will seize this opportunity."

"When it comes to physical copyright, the tertiary industry companies of major film and television companies and major film studios are definitely holding on tightly."

“But it definitely doesn’t include online copyright.”

“This is something new and emerging.”

“Most people don’t realize the potential there.”

"But as long as we start to acquire copyrights on a large scale, others may cover it up even if they don't realize it, so we must fight this battle quickly."

"first."

He patted the table and looked at Xu Qing and Yu Feihong: "Use your connections to set up the company as quickly as possible."

The two women looked at each other.

Nod quickly.

"Secondly."

Tapping his fingers on the table, Li Luo looked at Lin Yue and said, "In the next few days, the only thing you need to do is to collect information from major film studios, film and television companies, TV stations, etc."

"Collect all the relevant information."

"at last."

“It’s just spending money.”

Li Luo clenched his fist and said quickly: "We need to make some choices in this regard. Let's first focus on the TV series and movies that have been very popular in recent years. These are the most valuable."

"For example, The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, My Own Swordsman, The Iron-Toothed Ji Xiaolan, etc."

"Wait until the head film and television drama is finished."

"Stop."

Lin Yue thought of something and waved her hand to interrupt Li Luo.

Everyone's attention.

They all fell on her.

"You acted too impatient, and you forgot one thing."

Manager Lin took a deep breath, and a cunning look flickered in his eyes: "It's a buyer's market now. Even a phenomenal movie like Crazy Stone can't sell well, let alone other movies and TV series!"

"In the eyes of many film and television companies, this aspect has no output value."

“We pay for it.”

“It was definitely a pleasant surprise for them.”

Lin Yue smiled like a little fox, waved her hand and said, "In this case, they definitely want to sell more. At this time, we can ask to buy some of the ones with poor ratings."

"Or maybe it's a drama that can't be broadcast on TV."

"This is the only way to maximize benefits and buy the most copyrights with the least money."

Li Luo nodded repeatedly after hearing these words.

I actually forgot about this. In fact, many film and television companies produce more than one work. In the eyes of those people, these things are worthless. It would be great if they could sell a few more.

It shouldn't matter if I give some as a gift.

"not good."

Yu Feihong thought about it and raised an objection: "We can't do that."

"why?"

Lin Yue looked puzzled.

“We still have to go with the boutique strategy.”

Yu Feihong shook her head slowly and said to her seriously: "Those stock dramas and TV dramas with average ratings should be kept for those who have the same ideas as us!"

“Competitors can sometimes become allies.”

“More companies with aligned interests.”

"It's not a bad thing!"

There was no one stupid among the people present, and they immediately understood the meaning of Yu Feihong's words.

A high concentration of resources means becoming a target of public criticism. Whether it's promoting legalization or facing the pressure from video websites, it's better to have someone to share the burden with than to bear it alone.

If there is pressure, let's bear it together.

If you have money, you can earn the lion's share.

Wouldn’t that be better!
Li Luo gave Yu Feihong a thumbs up and continued to discuss the next plan.

With Xu Qing's reminder, everyone quickly realized that Hong Kong and Taiwan film and television dramas and even Japanese and Korean film and television dramas can actually be included in the procurement scope, and their value will not be reduced at all.

It was not until more than half an hour later that everyone came up with a preliminary plan.

Li Luo can only hide behind the scenes.

Lin Yue is the most suitable person to carry out specific operations, but she is not capable of this alone. With Manager Lin's influence in the industry, many film and television companies may not even be able to see their responsible persons.

Seeing Xu Qingjiao's innocent look, Yu Feihong had no choice but to take the job.

at this time.

Yu Feihong became the leader.

Whether it's influence in the circle or connections, she can easily get in touch with people that Lin Yue cannot.

In fact, Yu Feihong's identity was the important reason why Li Luo pulled her over.

The first is to raise money, the second is to build relationships.

If you don't have some skills when doing this kind of business, you will be taken advantage of sooner or later. Only with Sister Feihong supporting you in the front can you earn the money safely.

The same is true for Xu Qing.

The other party's identity as a big girl in Beijing can get rid of countless troubles.

Li Luo did not make the decision to ask these two people to come over on a whim. By giving up some of his interests, he could gain a large amount of funds and interest alliances. Why not do such a thing?

And this is done as a woman.

It is also an advantage.

At the very least, you appear to be harmless to others.

If Li Luo were to take action personally, the aggressiveness he would bring would be too strong, and those who come into contact with him would immediately start to think carefully about what this guy is going to do by purchasing so many film and television network copyrights!
One gives advice, two do the work, and the last one just sits there to make some contributions.

The equity division is very clear.

Li Luo alone gets 50%.

The remaining shares will be distributed according to the proportion of investment and output.

some things.

It’s better to make it clear first.

This will avoid a mess and make you lose your original intention.

This business cannot be underestimated!
The distribution revenue brought by the online copyrights of TV dramas and movies acquired now will most likely be calculated in tens of millions per year in just a few years.

Video platforms want to fill their content libraries and build moats.

You absolutely cannot get around yourself.

There are many investment opportunities nowadays, but there are not many business projects like this one that have little risk, little technical difficulty, and can make large profits steadily.

Even if there is, you have to realize that it is not!
It was because of this that Yu Feihong joined in with great interest.

Although she usually has a non-confrontational attitude.

But no one can resist money.

After some discussion, Li Luo simply drove them away.

Those pairs of sparkling eyes seemed to want to eat me alive, but I couldn't peel them together with them, so I just drove them away and did what I had to do according to the agreed plan.

The biggest advantage of this business is that I can continue to be a hands-off boss.

I happily looked at the company information for a while.

Li Luo took up his coat.

Straight to the Rage editing room.

"Click."

Lights illuminate the small room.

The heater was also turned on, followed by the computer and various equipment, and the ventilation fan also started buzzing.

"Rub~"

The fire wheel turned, and the rising flames ignited the tobacco.

"You don't mind if I smoke, do you?"

Du Yuan said casually, then pulled out a chair and sat down: "You will know after a few days of editing. This is a very boring job. You have to deal with a lot of video materials every day."

"Without something to refresh myself, I can't do it at all."

"do not mind."

Li Luo sat down with a smile and lit a cigar as well: "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Du. If there is anything inappropriate, please give me more suggestions."

Even with detailed storyboards.

But someone is still needed to help check and verify, or to find and fill in the gaps.

This time, the editor who was approached for the job was also Crazy Stone. Du Yuan has extraordinary qualifications. Works such as "Red Sorghum", "Ju Dou", "Raise the Red Lantern", and "Qiu Ju Goes to Court" are all her work.

The post-editing that helped Li Luo deal with his anger was more than enough.

After the two exchanged greetings, Li Luo quickly began to familiarize himself with the operation of various equipment and software.

First, review the script with Du Yuan.

Followed by.

It’s about organizing the materials.

The entire editing work is actually similar to playing a jigsaw puzzle. First, you have to sort the extremely messy materials into categories, and then find a way to piece them together, using frame by frame to piece together the entire movie world.

The whole work is extremely tedious and boring, especially the initial sorting process.

But even so.

Li Luo still put his full attention into it.

Time went on until the evening. He left Du Yuan to sort out the materials and took time out to have dinner with Chen Jiashang and Lin Chaoxian. Of course, they also had a discussion about the script of Painted Skin.

The next day, Lin Chaoxian returned to Hong Kong Island.

Chen Jiashang continued to stay in Beijing and study the new script with him, and he seemed determined not to leave until he had figured out the whole thing.

This whole situation made Li Luo even busier than when he was filming.

While cutting the film.

On the other hand, he also has to deal with Chen Jiashang.

But in order to earn a little money.

There’s nothing I can do!

I had to put all my energy into dealing with it.

Time passed day by day, and while he was busy here, Juyuan Network was quickly established. Lin Yue and Yu Feihong took the huge sum of 80 million yuan that everyone had pooled together and began their journey to sweep across major film and television companies.

The first one to be targeted.

It was the most popular "Wulin Wai Zhuan" last year.

The online copyright buyout price for this 81-episode sitcom that is so popular all over the country is only 100,000 yuan.

When he received the phone call, Li Luo almost jumped up.

That's the price.

What’s the difference with the price of cabbage?

If such a popular drama has such a low price, then the prices of other dramas will be pushed down even more. When the price was negotiated by Lin Yue, Yu Feihong almost went crazy with joy.

Moreover, the situation was almost as Lin Yue had expected. It was rare for anyone to buy these worthless things.

The film and television companies were extremely enthusiastic.

I wish I could just dump all the dramas I have on my plate out.

To them.

What the hell is Internet copyright?

Who would be stupid enough to spend money to buy these old dramas online?

It's a rare occasion that a sucker comes to my door, so I'd better sell as many as I can. It's just like recycling waste anyway!

There were even some film and television company bosses who were familiar with Yu Feihong who tried to persuade her that there was no use in buying this thing and why waste money on some inexplicable Internet copyright.

After Li Luo's explanation, Yu Feihong deeply realized her future financial prospects.

I just laughed it off.

Procurement operations begin.

Yu Feihong found that her idea of ​​deliberately leaving some copyrights to her peers was completely unnecessary. Even if they wanted to take all the copyrights, they were completely powerless.

The amount of film and television drama inventory accumulated over the years is even more terrifying than they imagined.

Even if the price is low.

Eighty million is not enough to shake it completely.

Accompanied by a professional copyright lawyer, the two began a happy and painful shopping journey. From the careful selection at the beginning, they soon turned into numb and crazy swiping.

First to Beijing, then to Shanghai, followed by Guangzhou, and then fly to Hong Kong Island.

Finally, Wandao was not spared.

Time is of the essence, let’s get the copyright first.

Copying the resources back later will be an even greater workload.

With a large amount of funds in hand, Yu Feihong kept running around various places within a month. In early 2007, she quickly became the scapegoat and was ridiculed by major film and television companies.

It's January 25th.

Li Luo suspended all matters at hand and flew to Jinling with Wang Ou.

Start publicity work for New Shanghai.

Just this day.

New Shanghai Bund also officially premiered on Jinling TV.

Backstage of the studio.

A series of hurried footsteps sounded.

Under the guidance of the staff, Li Luo walked forward freely, nodding and smiling at the backstage staff who exclaimed in surprise from time to time. Signing autographs, taking photos, etc. were also carried out in a flash.

In contrast, no one is interested in Wang Ou.

Although he starred in "I Love You, Goodbye", "Crazy Stone" was also a big hit.

Gained some fame.

But generally speaking, she still has little presence in the eyes of the public.

"Soon."

Slowing down his pace slightly, Li Luo looked ahead with a smile: "Everything needs a process. After the New Shanghai Bund is broadcast, our sister Wang Ou will definitely become a household name."

"Do not."

Wang Ou was delighted and said with his head held high: "I am an actor!"

Noticed Li Luo's eager gaze.

The girl stood up proudly again.

After a period of diligent development, the curve of her chest has become much fuller.

"Yes."

Smiling and looking away, Li Luo gave a thumbs up: "A well-known actor."

Movies are certainly high-end, but if you want to increase national popularity, a hit TV series is the inevitable choice. Only by appearing on TV over and over again can it quickly become popular.

While talking, we came to the backstage lounge.

It was quite lively in here, with various sounds of talking and laughing being heard constantly.

"Teacher Xuejian."

"Miss Mi."

"director."

Li Luo smiled brightly and walked in with a series of greetings.

As the tall figure appeared, the sound of chairs moving was heard one after another. Everyone stood up and greeted him with smiles. The crazy Stone Explosion also greatly increased his status in everyone's hearts.

Even in the film and television industry, which is known for its high incomes, it is rare to find people who can earn more than 20 million in a year.

Not to mention earning it as a producer.

Li Luo didn't put on airs at all. He hugged everyone politely and warmly.

The laughter was endless.

We are all in the same circle, so it won’t go wrong if we build good relationships with each other.

"Come."

Li Mi gave him a hug with a big smile on his face, and immediately introduced the person next to him: "Meet the leader of our Jinling TV station, this is Director Liu."

After another round of handshakes and greetings, she began to work on her makeup.

Since Sun Li couldn't spare time for this stop, Wang Ou got to steal the spotlight. She walked into the dressing room with her assistant and soon came out wearing a beautiful black sleeveless dress.

Even though the weather is cold now, we have to endure it.

That's what female artists have to do.

It's much harder to compete in performance, appearance and style than male artists!
While the makeup artist was cleaning Li Luo's face, Gao Xixi dragged a chair over and sat next to her: "If I remember correctly, Xiao Ou is from your studio, right?"

"Yes."

Li Luo's eyes rolled.

"That's good."

Gao Xixi smiled and looked at Wang Ou who was sitting on the other side, then set her eyes on him: "Do you have any time at the end of the year? Around October, I am preparing for Zhang Henshui's The Luxurious Life."

"How about you and Xiao Ou come together for another show?"

"The pay is easy to negotiate."

Some directors are like this. When they meet an actor they find easy to use, they can't wait to use him all the time.

Gao Xixi herself is like this.

A few months of cooperation.

He is extremely satisfied with both Li Luo and Wang Ou. They have excellent acting skills, work hard during filming, and are very clear about their work even if they have to work all night long. Of course, he wants to use more actors like them.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Ou's eyes lit up instantly.

But right away.

She looked at Li Luo with some trepidation again.

"Sorry, Senior."

After hesitating for a while, Li Luo shook his head slightly and said, "I have a role to play at the end of the year, and I will shoot a movie then."

The light in Wang Ou’s eyes suddenly dimmed.

Without Luo Ge following me, I probably wouldn’t get my turn!
Although it's a pity.

But I can't ask him to drop his work and accompany me to film a TV series.

Gao Xixi also felt regretful.

But this was also expected. Popular actors like him have no shortage of film offers.

After a brief pause, he looked at Wang Ou again:
"What about you, Xiaoou?"

"I?"

Wang Ou’s joy was visibly evident.

"Yes."

Gao Xixi nodded and said seriously: "It's okay if Luo can't come. Can you spare some time for me? This is a story from the Republic of China. The heroine Tian Peizhi is also a charming woman."

"It fits your image very well."

"How about it, are you interested in giving it a try?"

"I have a schedule."

Li Luo took over the conversation and said straightforwardly: "I'll thank you on her behalf. Fax the script to my studio when you have time so that Xiao Ou can figure out the role as soon as possible. You don't need to pay for it!"

"Thank you for the opportunity, Senior."

"Thank you, director."

Wang Ou finally reacted, and she stood up excitedly: "Thank you Director Gao, I have time, and I will definitely not let you down."

"Hey~"

Stopping her from bending down and bowing, Gao Xixi waved her hand and said with a smile: "It's mainly because you acted well. I feel relieved to hand over the role to you. I will pay you the friendship price."

"I'd rather you work for several months in vain."

"Okay, that's it, you guys put on your makeup first!"

Anyway, the producers are paying for it, so why put so much pressure on the actors? Patting Li Luo on the shoulder to indicate that you're welcome, Gao Xixi continued to greet others.

"cough~"

Glancing at the ecstatic Wang Ou, Li Luo reminded her to pay attention to her manners.

The former pinched his thigh hard.

Then he turned around and sat down.

The smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be suppressed.

I didn’t expect that when I went out for promotion with Luo Ge, a pie would fall from the sky, and it was the female lead of a movie directed by Gao Xixi!

Even with Li Luo's reminder, Wang Ou tried his best to control the expression on his face.

But I still couldn't help but laugh foolishly.

Looking at Wang Ou with envy, the makeup artist continued with her hands, skillfully helping her to put on delicate makeup. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that some people are born with good luck.

Then glanced to the other side.

The female makeup artist's heart beat faster and her eyes were filled with peach blossoms.

Luo Ge is so handsome!

As the makeup artist peeked at them again and again, the two quickly finished their makeup and familiarized themselves with the next script. It was not until half an hour later that everyone greeted each other and walked towards the studio.

"Today is the press conference."

Producer Li Mi followed Li Luo closely and said excitedly, "More than a hundred of your fans and dozens of reporters came to the scene."

"We first released the DVD of this drama, and the sales performance was very good."

“It has a very good reputation.”

"Thank you for your hard work over the next few days."

"In April, I think I'll have to trouble you to go to Wandao for a few days to promote it."

"no problem."

Li Luo naturally had no objection.

The millions of dollars from others are not given to you for free.

He did know that New Shanghai Bund was first released as a DVD and then broadcast on TV, and it had already been released for a while, but he was so busy during this period that he had no idea how the results would be.

Soon we arrived at the door of the studio.

Everyone stopped.

Upon receiving the reminder, the host immediately gave guidance.

Realizing that the main creative team was about to enter, screams in the studio suddenly surged out like waves.

"Li Luo!!!"

"Li Luo!!!"

"Li Luo!!!"

The loud shouts represent the rising popularity.

TV station leaders, advertiser representatives, and crew members all turned their eyes to Li Luo who was standing in the back. He stood there with a faint smile, looking as if he was used to it.

The style of the popular actor is undoubtedly on display.

With the host's loud welcome, producer Li Mi was the first to appear on stage, followed by Wang Ou.

Then, it was director Gao Xixi.

Li Xuejian also walked into the studio with a smile and waved his hand.

The camera lights became more and more intense, and the shouts became louder and louder.

"Ok."

The host's high-pitched voice rang out, cheering loudly: "Next, please welcome Mr. Li Luo, the actor who plays Xu Wenqiang in New Shanghai Bund!"

After calming himself down, Li Luo strode into the studio.

"what!!!"

The crazy screams instantly came like a raging sea wave, causing him to stop in his tracks.

Then, a bright light filled the entire pupil.

The fans are making a fuss.

Gao Xixi and others were all shocked.

Not to mention the distant past, with the strong momentum of hit dramas such as The Return of the Condor Heroes and The Legend of Xue Rengui, Li Luo's current popularity is extraordinary, and the number of his fans is naturally growing.

He rarely attended various events, and had previously gone to Hong Kong Island to shoot a movie for several months.

The fans have been unable to hold back any longer.

Now see the real person appear.

That's worth it!
Even though there were only a hundred or so fans in the studio, their excited shouts were as loud as hundreds of people. The deafening screams made the reporters unable to help but look sideways.

The cheering cards in their hands rose and fell like waves.

Wait until your pupils adapt.

Li Luo waved his arms and trotted to the press conference stand, then stood firmly in the middle of the team.

In the overwhelming light of the flash lights, he grinned with his white teeth.

He then put his hands together to express his gratitude.

Finally, press down.

Following his gesture, the fans of the Jinling Support Club finally stopped their agitation, but the excitement on their faces showed no sign of fading.

"Wow~"

The host pretended to wipe the sweat off his face and said with emotion: "The audience in Jinling is so enthusiastic. It seems that everyone likes our Mr. Xu Wenqiang very much. Next, please ask the etiquette lady to give out the flowers."

"A warm welcome to the New Shanghai crew."

"very good."

"thank you all."

"Please take your seats in an orderly manner. Now we will play a promotional video for reporters and fans."

The lights in the studio dimmed.

As everyone took their seats, the huge screen at the back began to light up.

The windbreaker flutters and the top hat moves.

The rickshaw creaked as it rolled over the bluestone road.

The noise quickly turned into gunshots. The constant flashes of gunfire made Xu Wenqiang's face flicker. Most of the fans present were seeing Li Luo in this image for the first time.

Pairs of eyes were wide open.

As the narration sounded, charming figures swayed in the alley.

Fang Yanyun, holding an oil-paper umbrella and wearing an old-fashioned cheongsam, walked step by step towards the end of the misty rain like a socialite in old Shanghai.

The way I look.

Wang Ou was so excited that he pinched his palms.

I felt a surge of heat all over my body, and even though I was wearing a thin skirt I didn't feel cold at all.

Characters such as Feng Jingyao, Feng Chengcheng, and Ding Li appear on the screen one after another, and the bizarre Shanghai of the 1930s slowly unfolds before the audience.

As the machete whizzed down, the entire trailer came to an abrupt end.

Most of the screen was dark, with only the sharp blade frozen in time reflecting Li Luo's cold face.

The cigarette that he held firmly in his lips.

At the cigarette butt.

As red as blood.

This short clip of just a few dozen seconds fully demonstrates the exciting feeling of the foreign concessions.

The fans who had never seen the disc were eager to take a look at it.

New Shanghai.

Four big characters slammed on the screen.

The lights in the studio shone brightly again.

The scenes just now instantly brought Li Luo back to the memory of the filming at that time. His lips seemed to still be stuck to the filter of the cigarette, and the smoke seemed to be floating in front of his eyes again.

It floats from day to night, and from a sky full of stars to the rising sun.

There is almost no time to stop!
"Clap clap~"

Warm applause broke out in the studio, bringing Li Luo back to his senses.

He took a deep breath and a smile quickly spread across his face.

Clap your hands together vigorously.
