Two days later, Yang Mi finally finished reading the script of "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom".

When she came to the room, Yang Mi looked at Zhang Xiao and said, "Hubby, I've finished reading."

Zhang Xiao smiled slightly and asked: "How do you feel? Is it much better than your "Fuyao"?"

When Yang Mi heard him mention this, she rolled her eyes angrily and said, "Yes, I admit that the script you wrote, "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is indeed very good and can be called a classic."

"The only bad thing is that there are only forty-five episodes. If the ratings are not good, you will probably lose a lot of money. How about you add more content to fill it out?"

Zhang Xiao refused without hesitation: "Add more content? That's impossible. The three TV series I acted in all scored above nine points on the Department of Culture's film review website."

"I don't hope that "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" will become an exception."

Yang Mi stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "It's basically impossible to get nine points with a fairy tale drama!"

Zhang Xiao smiled and said very confidently: "I like to make the impossible possible, and make "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" a benchmark for fairy tale dramas."

Yang Mi pursed her lips and asked cautiously: "Well, hubby, how much money are you prepared to invest?"

Zhang Xiao stretched out four fingers and said slowly: "Excluding the actors' salary, the production fee alone is at least 400 million."

"What? Are you crazy? This is four hundred million, not four to one." Yang Mi's eyes widened when she heard this, her face full of disbelief.

General fairy tale works, such as "The Story of Ancient Swords", claim to have cost 150 million, but in fact they only cost more than 80 million. However, Zhang Xiao said that the production cost of "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" alone cost at least 40 million.

One hundred million.

If you add the actors' remuneration and publicity and distribution expenses, it will be at least 500 million.

Spending 500 million to produce a TV series with only 45 episodes has never happened in the entire film and television industry.

It's just crazy.

Zhang Xiao said calmly: ""Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" requires countless special effects. If we want to make it a classic, we must not be afraid of spending money."

"Especially for you, if you want to be the number one actress in the film and television industry, the average ratings of "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" cannot be lower than my previous one, "Latent"."

Thinking of the previous average ratings of "Latent", Yang Mi had no confidence at all. She held her mouth and said, "Husband, do you think the ratings of this TV series can surpass "Latent"?"

Zhang Xiao nodded confidently and said: "As long as we make the picture effect 70% of the movie, it is not impossible to break through the average ratings of 6%."

"It costs 500 million to make a monumental fairy tale drama. Even if it means losing money, I think it's worth it."

Yang Mi calculated it carefully and said: "If we can really achieve an average ratings of 6%, no, as long as 3%, the investment of 500 million can be recovered."

Zhang Xiao raised his hand and flicked her forehead lightly, saying: "Don't always think about making money. What you lack is not money, but classic works that establish your status."

Yang Mi rolled her eyes and said angrily: "You mean, my previous works are not classics?"

"Tch!" Zhang Xiao snorted and said with great disdain: "Those of yours are still far from the classics."

Yang Mi's face turned red and she said angrily: "Zhang Xiao, you, if you dare to look down on me, I will kill you."

Zhang Xiao gave a bad laugh and said: "It's up to you? Humph, let's see how I can convince you!"

Sure enough, what followed was a melee between the two men. The scene was very tragic, hundreds of millions of lives were lost, and the ending undoubtedly ended with Yang Mi surrendering and begging for mercy.

the next day.

Yang Mi took Zhang Xiao's script and found Lin Yifen, the director who had directed many hit dramas such as "Flower Thousand Bones" and "Step by Step".

After Lin Yifen read the script, she expressed great appreciation: "Mimi, this script is very good, it can be called a classic. Is this really written by your family?"

With a bright smile on her face, Yang Mi said: "Well, he wrote it!"

Anyone can see the proud look on Yang Mi's face at this moment.

Lin Yifen smiled and said: "He is indeed a talented screenwriter who was able to write "Latent". It's just that it is not an easy task to make this TV series well."

"The Tiangong, Ten Miles of Peach Grove, the battle between the Heavenly Clan and the Winged Clan, etc. all require the blessing of special effects. Have you found an investor?"

Yang Mi said: "My husband invested his own money. He made a lot of money from "Latent" and is going to use it all to film "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom""

After hearing this, Lin Yifen's eyes lit up and she said, "Then how much money is he prepared to invest?"

Yang Mi said truthfully: "According to my husband's idea, the production cost is 400 million. Of course, if it is not enough, he will continue to add more and strive to make this TV series a benchmark for Xianxia TV series."

"Director Lin, my husband is a man who has extremely high requirements for the quality of his works. Didn't you always complain that you didn't have enough money and couldn't take the pictures you wanted? Now you don't have to worry."

Lin Yifen was shocked and speechless at this time. After a while, she said excitedly: "The production fee of 400 million, this... this is too much!"

Yang Mi shrugged and said, "There is no way. This is what he asked for. Either we don't shoot, or if we shoot, it must be a classic. We can't save any money on special effects."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, Lin Yifen felt her blood boiling all over her body and said excitedly: "Mimi, I'll take this role, even if you don't have to pay."

"With sufficient funds, we, Bangzheng, will definitely be able to produce a truly classic fairy tale drama."

Yang Mi smiled and said: "I came to you for this matter in the first place. I have prepared the contract."

Lin Yifen was stunned at first, then took the contract, looked at it in general, and signed her name on it without any hesitation.

"Mimi, according to the scene of this script, we need to build a studio of at least 80,000 square meters and produce more than 2,000 swords, neon clothes and feather clothes. In addition to the massive weapons layout, we will definitely not be able to start the machine if we don't have three months on time.

."

After Lin Yifen calculated carefully, she looked at Yang Mi and said.

Yang Mi nodded and said: "No problem, we will arrange the schedule in advance."

The two chatted for a while before leaving.

After Lin Yifen took over "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", she began to form a crew.

Relying on his personal relationships, he has recruited many big names in the industry to join him.

The costume designer Zhang Ping was nominated for an Oscar, the stylist Zhang Jie also won an Academy Award, and the art director is Chen Hao, the most famous in the industry.
