Li Tiezhu said in a serious manner, “This paragraph your last ‘give up your life’ two words pause too long, a bit deliberate, try to be more compact, tone a bit more calm, you are the winning side, do not need to show self-esteem and strong like Gao Cheng.”
Duan Yihong just looked at Li Tiezhu with a smile, thinking that it is really suitable to play Xu Sanduo, because he is bubbling with stupidity no matter what he plays, although Li Tiezhu’s acting is not bad anymore, but the fire is not enough, and the temperament can’t be hidden in any way.
In fact, just now that section, Duan Yihong intentionally sold a larger crack, test Li Tiezhu only.
On the current position, he is not satisfied with Li Tiezhu’s directing ability and performance, but ……
Duan Yihong slightly shook his head, “Go back and let your company prepare the contract, the price quoted last time, plus fifty per cent.”
The director is guiding you to act, how did he increase the price?
Li Tiezhu was a little confused.
Duan Yihong took a sip of coffee, “Sure is stingy! The coffee was bought from a milk tea shop, right? OK, you go back. I can kind of see that you have a bit of an idea, but …… you and your crew need me a lot, so it has to be increased.”
Li Tiezhu: “Oh …… good.”
Duan Yihong, who had already walked out a few steps, was very much like Yuan Lang to Xu Sanduo, liking but speechless, he walked and turned around, walked back, reached out and poked Li Tiezhu in the chest:
“Be careful! Don’t carry cheap coffee bought from a milk tea shop and beg in person, people will ask for a lion’s share!”
Li Tiezhu: “Is the coffee not good enough?”
Duan Yihong froze: “Ha! Yes, so remember to buy good coffee next time.”
Li Tiezhu bowed: “Got it, thank you, teacher.”
Duan Yihong was choked, as Yuan Lang in the drama was often choked by Xu Sanduo, rolled her eyes and shook her head as she slipped away, “Hmph! Too polite!”
The reason why I was not satisfied but agreed is because Duan Yihong likes this silly guy, anyway, it’s all about filming to make money, where to film is not the same? He doesn’t have much fame now anyway.
After the initial success and valuable experience, Li Tiezhu is more confident.
He drove to the next film crew to find Zhang Yi.
The reason why he has to go through such trouble is still because Li Tiezhu is self-aware and knows that his level is limited, so he will try to find one with a similar temperament and acting style to the original, which seems to be the only two in the world, except for the big black cow who is too old.
Other actors, Li Tiezhu is also carefully selected, the first real director of a TV series, do not dare to have the slightest negligence.
People are stupid, they have to have a sense of reverence.
……
At this moment, in Guangdong East Penguin culture headquarters, three executives waiting in a small but extremely luxurious conference room, three executives with different attitudes, a playful, a sneer, the rest of an expressionless in that throw colour to play.
The art director in a straight suit smiled playfully, turning the expensive fountain pen in his hand: “What a great power, half an hour late and still no sign of him, Fatty Zhang floating, right?”
The vice president sneered, “Probably thinks we are old and can’t lift the sword. He is forgetful after following Li Tiezhu’s levelling up.”
The general manager threw a six and said, “Don’t judge yourself like that, Fatty Zhang is still an obedient one, and Li Tiezhu is also quite honest. Besides, aren’t they still soldiers in our hands? One glory for all, one loss for all, don’t make a discordant thing, calm down, calm down.”
At this time, that bearded fat man finally clamped the briefcase, nodded and smiled with the waist and walked in, sat down on the lower side of the head: “Sorry, sorry …… the road is too congested, so that all the leaders waited for a long time, it is really too much …… ”
Art director said: “Traffic jam ah? Thought you don’t look at our old few.”
Zhang Xiaomeng grinned: “See you say this, how dare I? I wouldn’t dare to lend me the guts of a dog. You are tired!”
Saying this, Zhang Xiaomeng personally got up to pour tea for the three of them.
The art director raised his eyebrows and glanced at Zhang Xiaomeng, shaking his head slightly.
The vice president coldly said, “The investment approved by the head office of Soldier’s Assault is sixty million ……”
Zhang Xiaomeng fell well short of being happy and said, “Yoho! That’s great, we originally thought that thirty to forty million would be enough to spend, but we didn’t think it would be this much?”
The vice president of the slight anger, are in the circle, you f*cking play stupid right?
Zhang Xiaomeng’s acting skills are average, pretending to be stupid is really stupid.
The vice president: “said it, if we collectively give you and Li Tiezhu endors*ment, can get a hundred million, at least eighty million did not run.”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “Yo! It doesn’t take that much, 60 million is enough, the top is enough.”
The vice president had a toothache, do you not understand human language or what? He looked to the table rolling colour, one point, and then looked to the general manager.
The general manager said, “Only one point? Too small.”
With that, the lean man in his forties picked up the colours again and prepared to re-throw them, his mouth chanting.
The vice general manager gritted his teeth, “If 10% is too little, how about one point fifty percent? In terms of one billion, that’s fifteen million, quite a lot!”
Zhang Xiaomeng said, “Hmm? Tie Zhu said that this TV series is not a big production, thirty to forty million is completely enough, it doesn’t need to be that much.”
The art director looked at Zhang Xiaomeng strangely, “Little Zhang is very frugal! But this Penguin Culture is neither yours nor ours, we’re all just part-timers, so look on the bright side.”
Zhang Xiaomeng said, “It’s because it’s not our own money, we don’t know how to spend too much of it, we’re nervous.”
The art director and the vice president looked at the general manager …… of the colour again.
Three points.
The art director’s hand dazzled fountain pen are dropped, the vice president is also a sharp shock.
The general manager laughed, reached out and flipped the colour from three points to two points, laughing to himself, “Old! The craft is getting worse and worse ……”
The vice general manager’s face was cold: “Xiao Zhang ah, what do you think of the boss’s handiwork?”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “Good! Quite impressive, three points is good, my favourite number is three.”
The vice president slapped the table and stood up.
The general manager said, “What are you slapping? It’s messing up my rhythm.”
The vice president sat down resentfully and looked angrily at Zhang Xiaomeng.
Zhang Xiaomeng turned a deaf ear.
The art director said, “Is three …… good?”
The general manager pinched up the colours and turned them, “Three for all! Of course it is good. However, going from two to three is not that good, it’s a philosophical question.”
The GM grunted coldly, “Chang! Philosophical question, understand?”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “Please enlighten me.”
The art director rounded off, “It’s hard to say it’s hard, but it’s easy to say it’s easy. It’s just a TV series, 30 million is a film, 20 million is also a film. In terms of one billion, it’s two points, three points, five points, pretty good. So, it’s justifiable for us to invite some popular artists to support the show in order to boost the fame and traffic of this drama. For example, Cai Xukun, Sun Si Si such handsome men and women, Cai Xukun image is good can play that what the head of the class! These two people, how to spend 30-40 million in film fees, right?”
Zhang Xiaomeng frowned, this is a picture of a dagger?
30-40 million for two people?
My damn Li Tiezhu’s TV series offer is only 200,000 per episode!
The vice president said, “That’s right! Spend 30-40 million here, and then the whole advertising implants and special effects outsourcing, almost. Two, three, five, that’s the bottom line.”
The general manager continued to throw blindly there, not raising his head, “Xiao Zhang ah! The fact that the three of us came together to summon you today shows how much Penguin Culture values Soldier’s Assault! Such a good drama, and the momentum of the most powerful Li Tiezhu wrote, directed and starred in it, the gimmick is full, so how can we save money? Of course, everything should start with high quality. So, the company’s support is unprecedented, just so you know.”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “I know, I know too much!”
Heh!
Isn’t it just money-gathering?
Because they had the brightest star in all of Penguin, Li Tiezhu, as their name, they reached out to the company for money without limitations, and then invited the so-called top streamers they had connections with to star in the film, and gleaned the money into their own hands through yin and yang contracts, and what was left over, they could still outsource the special effects and the opening credits and the closing credits and so on, to the small companies they themselves had formed outside of the company.
The routine is too deep.
This is to take the first step of Li Tiezhu’s life for personal gain, as long as once they give in, they will get an inch, how much money to enrich themselves, not to mention, “Soldier’s Assault” absolutely can not shoot good quality.
Li Tiezhu’s path to directing will stop here.
Zhang Xiaomeng is not a newcomer to the circle, of course, know these cats and dogs, just, this time it is his turn to take a stand.
Zhang Xiaomeng smiled, “It’s like this! Leader! Firstly, there is no female lead in this drama, so Sun Sisi is not considered. Secondly, all actors playing soldiers must all shave their inches, Cai Xukun can shave? Can Cai Xukun shave his head? Even if he does, does he have the acting skills? Lastly, this drama doesn’t have any special effects other than live-action blasting, so it’s guilty of outsourcing.”
The vice president said angrily, “What the hell do you mean? Did I give you face?”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “Right! We’ve already looked after the actors, only Duan Yihong and Zhang Yi haven’t negotiated, oh, Zhang Yi is the one playing the squad leader. However, Li Tiezhu personally went to talk, there should be no problem. Duan Yihong is 150,000 per episode, and Zhang Yi is 100,000 per episode. It’s more cost-effective than these two, right? The acting is better! You guys see, how much I save money for the company?”
Vice President:”……”
The art director suddenly revealed a mocking smile, “No, Xiao Zhang. Do you think that idiot Li Tiezhu can talk Zhang Yi into it? You guys don’t understand, but I know it well, that’s just a theatre nerd, it’s useless to give money and talk about treatment and all that! Without a good director and a good script, he will never agree. Duan Yihong, not to mention, is a madman, who is a master at reading people’s orders, and ordinary people can’t hire him. Besides, if you invite these two, there will be no more two, three, five!”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “What? Two, three, five? I only need thirty or forty million and that’s enough!”
Vice President: “Whose side are you on?”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “I’m a professional agent, so I stand in the middle, between the company and the artiste.”
The general manager threw another six and said, “Go away, as Li Tiezhu’s agent and the chief planner of Soldier’s Assault, you can’t even hire two actors. It’s better to replace them, it’s better for everyone.”
Zhang Xiaomeng was fired.
But he just calmly stroked his beard, stopped talking, picked up his mobile phone and swiped Jitterbug, and didn’t leave.
It was the turn of the three bigwigs to be confused, they thought they could handle Zhang Xiaomeng with both softness and hardness, and if they couldn’t get it right, they would let him go, but they didn’t know that this guy was actually relying on this place, thinking that he could get away with being thrown out of the car?
The vice president coldly said, “If you are sensible, you’d better get the hell out of here right away, otherwise ……”
“Taken!”
Zhang Xiaomeng raised the mobile phone in her hand, serious face, “Tiezhu took Duan Yihong and Zhang Yi, again, we only need forty million, fifty million at most.”
The general manager yanked the colour hard in his hand and narrowed his eyes, “You’ve been fired.”
Zhang Xiaomeng took out his briefcase and rummaged around, “Fired? Then what …… isn’t there a dismissal letter? I haven’t received it yet, so I’m still at my post now, right? Leaders?”
Vice President: “You f*cking ……”
Snap!
Zhang Xiaomeng threw out a stack of documents, “This is the vice president’s.”
[Book Reading Benefits] Follow the public number [Book Lovers’ Camp] to draw cash/point coins for reading books every day!
The cover of the document was clearly written: ‘Penguin Culture Resignation Letter cum Lawyer Letter’.
Then came the second, and the third.
The three bigwigs were confused.
Zhang Xiaomeng continued to swipe up her mobile phone and said: ”I’m late this morning, mainly because Chairman Mapani’s assistant invited me to have afternoon tea, and I was delayed, and he’s a Cantonese Easterner who likes to have afternoon tea, so I went ahead and helped him bring some materials to all the leaders. He should be here in a while.”
The vice president rubbed up and slapped the table, “What the f*ck do you mean?”
Zhang Xiaomeng brushed his jitterbugs and was happy, not saying a word.
The vice president looked at the general manager, the general manager looked at the art director, the art director gently shook his head, his expression grave and even fearful.
At this time, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a spirited young man in sportswear walked in, “Brother Zhang, is it all settled?”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “Quite smooth, General Manager Lin.”
General Manager Lin nodded, and without sitting down, he said to the three bigwigs, “Please clean up the office, from today onwards, I, Lin Xu, am taking over Penguin Culture. Thank you seniors for your previous efforts, if you’re dissatisfied with the company’s decision, you can resort to legal proceedings. By the way, I still have an appointment to play golf, so I won’t chat, bye. Xiao Zhang, is 50 million enough? Dial it directly to Li Tiezhu’s studio. It’s better to have the studio sooner rather than later, so hurry up! He’s become a big shot and still doesn’t have a studio, it’s not like that.”
Zhang Xiaomeng: “More, 40 million will do.”
General Lin smiled and walked away, “Then fifty million, hiss …… I clubs with no come?”
The old three have been dumbfounded, a lawsuit with Nanshan Pizza Hut? You’re looking for death, aren’t you? Moreover, if people dare to fire them, they must have already got hold of some evidence, so ……
Zhang Xiaomeng said, “Leader! So what, I still have to go and busy myself with the formation work of the crew and the actors’ docking, or else, should I go first?”
None of the three spoke, and the colour in the general manager’s hand fell to the ground, turning over a …… two.
Zhang Xiaomeng smiled and walked away. With big steps, he was busy and happy.
As long as he can cultivate Li Tiezhu into a generation of superstars, he can eat any bitterness, but he can t accept mettle and mediocrity.
Li Tiezhu and the company gave him 30 million a year, he dared to take it, gave him 300,000, he did not complain.
As long as the red Li Tiezhu, he is absolutely no less money, not in this moment, and will not be short-sighted enough to go through with their own future, in order to thousands of thousands of their own and Li Tiezhu are hitched.
Of course, this matter is not his report to the company, but the penguin boss Maphone knows that next door Jack Ma invited Li Tiezhu to participate in the cocktail party, the purpose is not pure, deliberately pay attention to the penguin culture of the head of this, instantly see the problem.
An excellent intention of high quality TV series preparation, surprisingly three months of slow progress, a little check to find out the problem.
As a result, Penguin Culture had an earthquake, and reorganisation started today.
At the same time, Li Tiezhu Studio was formally established.
And the old three from the beginning to the end, do not understand how Li Tiezhu handle Zhang Yi.
