Chapter 123 The Siberian Tiger Loses His Temper (asking for monthly tickets)
Producer!

The director's responsibilities are mainly reflected in artistic creation, while the producer's responsibilities are more focused on the overall operation and management of the project.

Of course, Qi Hao asked Zhang Meng to be the producer, obviously in order to allow him to participate more in content review and guidance.

Just like "New Dragon Inn", the director is Li Huimin and Xu Ke is the producer, but most people regard "New Dragon Inn" as Xu Ke's work.

Qi Hao only needed to complete the task, he didn't mind having other people's shadows in his debut work.

Rising in the shadow of others is also a kind of growth.

"Okay!" Zhang Meng agreed without hesitation, and a huge weight of relief instantly fell to the ground in his heart.

"Producer fee..." Qi Hao waited for the other party to make an offer.

"No need. Three million is already an exaggeration. If you are patient enough, you will only spend a little over a million on this book."

Zhang Meng was promised the position of producer and began to worry about the project.

With Qi Hao's money-spending style that shows he has no idea of ​​the sufferings of the world, it would probably cost at least 80 million to make the movie.

Including the screenwriter's fee, the cost is about seven or eight million.

"Well, let's have a happy cooperation!"

Qi Hao shook hands with the other party. He has been in the industry for ten years, so how could he not know the market price of the script.

However, if he wanted to start construction earlier, he would have to increase the price.

Moreover, a script like "The Piano in a Factory" may only be worth one million, but even if Zhang Meng is offered one million, he may not necessarily sell it.

After all, he is a director himself.

He is also a very successful director.

Now, Zhang Meng is the producer for free, which is equivalent to spending three million yuan for the screenwriter fee + producer fee.

There is also the effect of Qianjin City horse bones.

After this news spread, screenwriters throughout the industry knew that Qi Hao was collecting scripts.

If there is a good book, he will definitely be given priority.

The scripts given by the system are all expired, but it doesn’t matter. He can buy them from the market, but they have not been strictly selected by the system, so a professional team may be needed to distinguish the quality.

In addition, Qi Hao has finished filming "Lost on Journey" and the album recording has also been completed.

There are still ten days left in 2008. If we can start producing the new movie right away, maybe it can be released in the first half of next year.

As for "The Sound of Wind", I'll just have to take some time to perform it when the time comes.

Wang Zhongjun has already said that we can concentrate on filming, so we should not waste this privilege.

"Thank you!"

Zhang Meng thanked Qi Hao.

No matter how you look at it, he made a profit from this deal.

Gou Daihu really has a lot of money. If I were as handsome as him, I would definitely become an actor.

"I plan to start a project immediately..." Qi Hao began to get into work mode.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

Zhang Meng didn't understand what was going on. He felt as if there was some ferocious beast chasing Qi Hao, or there was some big bargain ahead that he could grab and if he didn't hurry up it would be too late.

"Yes, I am planning the project while preparing for it. I will not be going home for the Spring Festival this year."

Qi Hao's idea was not a sudden one. He had made this plan before the filming of Lost on Journey was completed.

It’s better to lock in the profits and get the 200 million Moutai shares first.

"It's easy to set up a project. I have acquaintances."

Since Zhang Meng took on the job of producer, he began to work hard for the crew.

"Then please, what about actors? Do you have any recommendations?"

Qi Hao likes to work with this kind of second generation the most. Li Dawei is the second generation, and Zhang Meng is also the second generation.

Zhang Meng’s mother is a crosstalk actor and has worked with Zhao Benshan.

His father is a first-level director of the Liaoning TV Drama Production Center and has directed many well-known works.

Among them, "Male Women's Director" and "Rural Love" are considered his representative works.

Second-generation people like them may not have much money. Li Dawei was also very stingy when filming "Walk and See", and Zhang Meng couldn't even get normal investment.

However, thanks to their parents, they have a huge network of connections that is difficult for ordinary people to build in a short period of time.

"I have considered the issue of actors. If I hadn't had enough money, I would have started writing this script in 06."

Zhang Meng is very dedicated to his work.

He feels that the child is still his child, he just recognizes someone else as his father. As long as he can see him every day and can participate in his education, there is no problem.

"Then you can recommend it."

Qi Hao had no intention of fighting for power or profit at all.

"I want to choose Qin Hailu as the heroine."

Zhang Meng first said something that was not very controversial.

In 2000, Qin Hailu won the Best New Actor and Best Actress awards at the Golden Horse Awards for her role in "Durian Piaopiao", as well as the Best New Actor award at the Hong Kong Film Awards.

She is the only one who won both the Best Newcomer and the Best Actress award.

"Ah, Sister Lu!"

This was really too familiar. Qin Hailu was a member of Qi Hao's small circle, and they often drank, played cards and sang K together.

"Correct."

Zhang Meng originally wanted to say: Yes, it’s Qin Hailu who had an affair with you.

But Qi Hao gave him so much that he unconsciously began to respect Qi Hao.

"I'll call her later to ask."

Qi Hao needs to confirm the other party's schedule. If he were to be the director, it would not be convenient to invite him through Zhang Meng, as that would be too awkward.

"Actor, do you know Wang Qianyuan?"

Zhang Meng really wanted to help Wang Qianyuan get the role, but he was afraid that Qi Hao would want to play it himself.

It’s not that Qi Hao is incapable of acting, but he needs to rely on makeup and strong acting skills to make up for the difference in his image.

This performance is definitely inferior to Qi Hao's actual level.

"Oh, I know. He's the one who played in 'Guan Zhong Man'. My dad watched that TV series every day during the Chinese New Year. I also acted with him in 'The Emperor and the Assassin', but we didn't have much in common."

Qi Hao immediately knew who it was.

But is Wang Qianyuan's acting so good? He has no impression of him at all.

Wang Qianyuan debuted earlier than Qi Hao, but his development is obviously not as good as Qi Hao.

Qi Hao is already one of the top four young actors and a movie emperor, but Wang Qianyuan can only play supporting roles here and there, or muddle through in low-cost anti-Japanese war dramas.

"There must be no problem with his acting skills, why not let him have an audition."

Zhang Meng did not take on too much. Since Qi Hao wanted to live out his passion as a director, he would try his best to cooperate with Qi Hao's work and let Qi Hao make the decision.

Otherwise, one day the confrontation would become irreconcilable and he would definitely be kicked out of the crew.

"Okay, there are other actors..."

This project is so worry-free.

We have the script, the actors, and the investment...we can definitely start filming at the end of December.

It will be completed within two months, approved within three months, and released in May next year.

If it’s in May, you can choose the Shanghai International Film Festival for the premiere, and maybe you can complete the task that month.

Qi Hao couldn't guarantee whether "The Piano in a Factory" could make money, but it would definitely be no problem for it to win a small award.

If you continue to win awards in the future, maybe you will exceed your target.

The last time we exceeded our target, we awarded an additional 271 million shares on top of 100 million shares of Huayi. If we could award an additional 100 million Moutai shares...

Even if this movie doesn't make a penny at the box office, there's no need to worry.

Anyway, Qi Hao has capital behind him, so even if he loses money directing a movie, it will not prevent Gao Yang from continuing to support him.

What's more, Qi Hao, one of the four young actors, crossed over to become a director, becoming the first young actor to become a director. It would be strange if this gimmick did not cause a sensation.

As long as the movie’s reputation is not particularly bad, it will definitely be a box office success, at least better than when Zhang Meng was the director.

"Looking for Zhou Shuhao for photography?" Zhang Meng asked tentatively.

"Okay." Qi Hao nodded.

"Artist Wang Shuo..." Zhang Meng's voice was a little hesitant.

"Okay!" Qi Hao continued to nod.

"And Zhang Yi. They worked with me on 'Big Ears Bring Good Luck'," Zhang Meng didn't dare to continue, and asked in confusion, "Why do you agree to all of them?"

If Qi Hao hadn't looked so sincere, he might have suspected that Qi Hao was being sarcastic.

Don’t you see who is the director now and who the role is being given to?

"Brother, you are definitely more professional than me in this regard. Of course, I have to listen to your opinion on such professional matters!"

Qi Hao’s positioning for himself is very simple.

He needs a reputation and then get down to work making a movie.

As long as he has the power to shoot, it's fine.

As for other powers, as long as Zhang Meng did not exclude him and was willing to teach him sincerely what to do, it would be fine for him to let Zhang Meng make the decision.

If Zhang Meng said that the composition of this shot was not good enough.

Okay, then you tell me how to shoot, why this one is good and the previous one is not good.

As long as you convince me, I will listen to you.

Anyway, when the movie is released in the future, someone will definitely raise questions in this regard.

I would suspect that this movie was actually shot by Zhang Meng.

Just like Lu Yan's "Looking for the Gun", Lu Yan denied everything and even persuaded the crew to testify, but it was all useless.

Not only professionals, but even ordinary audiences can tell whether a movie is yours.

If you're a whore, just take customers. Why do you need to put up a chastity memorial?

At that time, Qi Hao said openly: The movie "The Piano in a Factory" invited screenwriter Zhang Meng to supervise the production on site. I received great guidance from Teacher Zhang Meng on the set and learned a lot. I hope to be able to make a movie with my own style as soon as possible.

"Okay, you've been in the industry for more than ten years. If there's anyone you want to hire, let me know and I'll arrange it."

The more Qi Hao acted like this, the more Zhang Meng dared not to look down on him.

This young man doesn't look like a fool at all.

If anyone calls Qi Hao a fool again, I will get angry with him.

Zhang Meng had seen the world, and he rarely saw such courage in young people.

"Okay, brother, gather the people and let's start the machine as soon as possible."

After Qi Hao returned from his meal, he held a meeting with the people in the company and said that he would start working on "The Piano in a Factory" from that day on.

"You're such a big grudge. The script and production costs are three million, and the cost is five million. You need twenty or thirty million box office to make back the money. How can there be two or three million people watching this kind of film?"

Things have come to this point, and there is nothing Old Tian can do.

But he still has to complain about what needs to be complained about.

"A 35 million box office doesn't require million people to watch the movies. Now a movie ticket costs to yuan at least, and to yuan at most. The average ticket price is about yuan."

Gao Fei was dragged to the meeting in a daze.

But as the general manager of Xiao Fei Yang, she is not lacking in basic knowledge of the industry.

"It's your family's money, and you don't feel bad at all."

Old Tian breathed a sigh of relief. He complained about Qi Hao just to let Gao Fei say something nice about him when he returned home.

It’s just like when your own child is fighting with someone else. If you are in the wrong, you should scold the other parent first so that he or she will feel embarrassed to continue to make things difficult for you.

If you are not in the wrong, then do it!
"It's only ten million. This script is really good. We all chose it together. Haven't we analyzed it several times?"

Gao Fei has a very high IQ and she is a top student, but she just has no motivation to work hard.

Her father most likely didn't have any illegitimate children. Even if he did, the billions would be enough to give at least a dozen to her, the eldest legitimate daughter.

The loss rate of domestic films exceeds 80%, and no matter how much money they make, the profit is only tens of millions.

It would just add a little bit to her wealth.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao Gao, for your generosity~"

Qi Hao expressed his gratitude and said that he chose this kind of art film script in order to obtain 200 million Maotai shares. If Gao Fei had any objections, he would pay for it himself.

Since the employers have no objections, all other people have to do is work.

After the meeting, Qi Hao still needed to call Qin Hailu.

The call was answered quickly, but as soon as Qi Hao opened his mouth, the other party hung up.

Oh my god, the Siberian tiger is angry.

Qi Hao was not angry and called again. This time he finally did not hang up the phone.

"Hey, you busy guy finally have some free time?"

Don't blame Qin Hailu for being sarcastic. Qi Hao is in the capital but has no time to attend the party she organized.

What do you mean by seclusion to record songs...

Are you sleeping on the floor in the studio or something?

It's like no one has ever participated in a song recording, but I've released two albums.

"Sister, I have something to talk to you about."

Qi Hao did not explain why he did not go out to play when Qin Hailu invited him twice recently.

If you can't explain it clearly to a woman, you might as well divert her attention.

"What do you want me to do for you?"

The other side seemed very alert, and it was obvious that this was not the first time Qi Hao asked for help.

"This is a good thing. I received a particularly good script. The heroine in it is particularly suitable for you. When I saw the script, I immediately thought that this role must be played by you. Didn't I contact you right away?"

You don't have to maintain a cool image in front of the public, but you don't have to do that in front of your friends.

"Oh, by the way, you're the one who spent three million to buy a good script. When did you become so rich?"

Qin Hailu did not refuse.

They have known each other for many years. Even if the role is not good, as long as Qi Hao asks her to play it, can she refuse?

"I got close to a big boss."

Qi Hao did not hide it, because many people in the circle knew about it.

"Asleep?" Qin Hailu was curious.

"Sleep your sister, a friend of mine from a long time ago, the one I told you about, who saved me in the bar. I didn't expect him to make a fortune in coal mining. Now he wants to enter the film and television industry and is looking for me to cooperate with him..."

Qi Hao gave a brief explanation.

"Who did you get the script from?" Qin Hailu also became serious. If he got it for three million, it couldn't be too bad.

"Zhang Meng, like you, is from Liao Province."

"The one with 'Big Ears Bring Good Luck'? That script should be pretty good. When will you need me?"

Qin Hailu breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the script was good.

Although Qi Hao doesn't seem very reliable as a director, she should still be loyal.
