Chapter 9 Finally there is an investment

Still in the hall of Dafu Film and Television Company, Li Shengyao held a bowl and buried his head in the meal.

Others are reading scripts, including Liu Xiaoqing, Yan Danchen, Li Dafu, and Zhao Shan.

It was already 1:30 noon.

Liu Xiaoqing and the others had lunch long ago. Li Shengyao just asked them to eat first in order to catch up with the script, and then they only had lunch at this time.

The content of the first two episodes of "Funny Family" is still very funny.

Shuncai has two sons and three grandsons. Logically speaking, there are many people and great power, but nothing goes smoothly for the family.

He is a vulgar and sensitive old man, his wife is a big eater, with a good temper, but also a lowly person.

The eldest son is stupid, while the second son is frivolous and unreliable.

The eldest daughter-in-law is a strong woman and very strong, while the second daughter-in-law is a Ma Daha.

The first episode tells the story of them taking a family photo together, and there are constant jokes.

Liu Xiaoqing and the others couldn't help laughing as they looked at the script.

After they finished reading the script, they all stared at Li Shengyao in a daze.

No one is fool, this script is really well written.

Even Li Dafu found it interesting.

"Big nephew, who am I playing?"

"Of course it's Li Shuncai."

Li Shengyao didn't care about the change in Li Dafu's name. Both of them were surnamed Li. They were in their fifties, so it would not be an exaggeration to call him a big nephew.

Li Dafu nodded, "Okay, this character is good, it's very interesting."

He thought of Mr. Fu, who I love my family, and was very excited to think that he could play such a character.

"Big nephew, do I want to learn performance?"

"Uncle, no need, just perform in a true way."

Li Shuncai is a stubborn and fickle person, incompetent and desperate, and he is still cheap and loves to watch pornographic movies.

Li Shengyao felt that except for being a little dark, Li Dafu was very similar in other aspects.

"Okay, okay, this one is good."

After Li Shengyao had finished his meal, he put away his smile, "Uncle, this drama can be filmed in total for 140 episodes. After you finish acting, you will definitely become famous. But although we were a family five hundred years ago, public is public and private is private. We need to have a good chat on the contract."

Things involving money must be explained clearly, which is Li Shengyao's principle.

The original work of "Funny Family" has a total of 167 episodes, but it also involves some sensitive plots, which cannot be reviewed. Li Shengyao must delete some, and he estimated that he could shoot about 140 episodes.

Li Dafu heard that he could shoot 140 episodes, and his eyes lit up a little.

Then Li Dafu pulled Li Shengyao into the office, and he called a lawyer.

When Zhao Shan saw this, he slipped in.

After the next three hours, after continuous bargaining, Li Shengyao, Dafu Film and Television Company, and Zhao Shan, signed two agreements together.

In these two agreements, Li Shengyao obtained the copyright of "Love Destiny Hotel" and "Funny Family", as well as the overseas broadcasting rights, directing rights, and the mainland broadcasting rights of 20% of the profit dividend.

Dafu Film and Television Company will invest 1.3 million yuan in "Qingding Hotel" and get 70% of the profit dividends of the playback rights in the mainland.

They will also invest 3 million in "Funny Family" and get 70% of the profit dividends from the play in the mainland.

Zhao Shan invested 300,000 yuan in "Qingding Hotel" and 500,000 yuan in "Funny Family", and the profit dividends obtained were 10%.

Li Shengyao originally planned to only divide the three rounds of broadcast rights and dividends in the planning letter.

But Li Dafu and Zhao Shan are not fools. They both think that if the script is reliable, both dramas can make money, and both of them argue with reason.

Li Shengyao thought of having more friends and more paths, so he did not persist in this part.

However, he refused to let go of copyright and overseas broadcasting rights.

A funny family has more than 100 episodes, and one episode costs 100,000 yuan to Wanwan, that's more than 10 million yuan. There is no need to talk about this part.

Of course, Zhao Shan and Li Dafu were actually just talking casually.

At this time, Chinese dramas could hardly be sold. You can't buy good dramas like "Dream of the Red Chamber" and "Journey to the West".

It’s not that they don’t know that these are good dramas, but ideological opposition. They rarely buy dramas that CCTV participates in.

The only four classic works, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", were bought by Wanwan Zhongshe, but they were originally broadcast in prime time, but later some people protested and changed to the 10 o'clock night time.

At this time, when watching the mainland, the Wanwan looked at the mainland, they had a natural sense of superiority, and they disdained to watch mainland dramas.

Although Annan often plays it, they don’t pay for it. They steal openly.

Only the Asian TV stations in Hong Kong will buy them regularly for broadcasting.

However, Asian TV bought all the classics among the classics. Zhao Shan and Li Dafu didn't think that Hong Kong Island TV stations are good at "Love Destiny Hotel" and "Funny Family".

Neither of them cares much about the overseas broadcasting rights.

So a temporary production team was born like this. Li Shengyao was also the screenwriter and director-producer. The screenwriter's pay was 20,000 yuan, the director's pay was 10,000 yuan, and the producer's pay was 10,000 yuan.

They made an appointment to go south to Shanghai City five days later.

During these five days, Li Shengyao has to find a reliable photographer, as well as two or three professional venue affairs, associate directors, and also to confirm the starring role.

When Li Shengyao left Dafu Film and Television Company, his legs were fluttering. He never expected that he would get investment so soon.

Zhao Shan was also quite moved. He originally thought that Li Shengyao was unreliable to be a director.

But Li Shengyao took out the script of "Funny Family", and his opinion changed at the time.

There are very few young people who can write good scripts. Even the majority of students in the screenwriter class of Yanjing Film Academy do not have this ability.

Li Shengyao has the ability to write scripts and may be able to direct them.

The standards of ordinary people cannot be placed on geniuses.

Besides, he is not the main investor, he only invests 800,000, and arranges two important roles for Liu Xiaoqing, which he thinks is very cost-effective.

Yan Danchen turned to Li Shengyao from time to time, feeling a little anxious.

She has been confirmed to film "Love Destiny Hotel", but she has not signed a contract yet.

Who knows whether Li Dafu will arrange for a woman to play the heroine?

But Zhao Shan and Liu Xiaoqing are here, so she doesn't have to say much.

Not long after, Zhao Shan and Liu Xiaoqing left in a nauseous manner, and Li Shengyao sent Yan Danchen home.

"I want to thank you this time. I will ask Zhao Shan to come to you tomorrow and the day after tomorrow to confirm the performance. I don't know how much your salary is. You can talk to Zhao Shan yourself."

At this time, the actors' pay was relatively low. Su Youpeng played the fifth prince for 2,000 per episode, and the total pay was less than 50,000.

Jinsuo is said to be an episode of 1,81, and Yan Danchen can basically compare Jinsuo’s salary.

However, Aunt Qiong Yao is rich and powerful, and Li Shengyao and the others can't compare. He thinks that episode 1,51 is almost the same.

After Yan Danchen received this sentence, the big stone hanging in his heart finally relaxed. His eyes looked at Li Shengyao with a little more tenderness.

"Do you want to go upstairs and sit down?"

Li Shengyao looked at Yan Danchen and shook his head, "Forget it, I have to go back and prepare some things."

Sitting upstairs does not mean going upstairs. After all, it is still in broad daylight now.

If it is night time, the implication will be more obvious.

Li Shengyao must go up and take a look. He must drink a bowl of ginseng soup before leaving.

Yan Danchen nodded, "If you have anything, come to me. I know some people who are needed by the crew and can take you to find someone."

Li Shengyao waved his hand and then left.

I can finally film the movie, and I am excited to think about it.

Next, find someone as soon as possible and then go south to Shanghai City.
