"Director Wang, I heard from Mr. Zhou that you want to borrow my yard?" Zhang Junping didn't be polite to Wang Fulin and asked directly.
"Yes! Our "Dream of Red Mansions" crew has been preparing for a long time, and now we are missing Ningguo Mansion and Rongguo Mansion.
Mr. Zhou said you have a yard, which is very suitable."
"Have Director Wang come here? How does it feel?"
"I am dissatisfied with you, Mr. Zhang. We have visited it several times. Your place is really suitable."
That’s why we alerted you to see if we could lend you this place.”
"No problem. If Director Wang needs it, just use it. This is also to build my reputation, isn't it?" Zhang Junping said with a cheerful smile.
"It's just, this...this..."
"Chairman Zhang, what Xiao Wang means is that if I don't have money, I can only borrow the place for free, and I can't pay you rent." Zhou Ruchang smiled and said for Wang Fulin what he was embarrassed to say.
Zhang Junping understands this. The crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" was established in 1981 and received a total of three million.
This year is already the third year. As a result, the filming of "A Dream of Red Mansions" has not started yet, and a lot of money has been spent.
Opinions from various quarters were strong, and some newspapers even criticized Wang Fulin by name for sensationalizing and wasting the country's money.
Therefore, now Wang Fulin is under great pressure and money is tight.
"Haha! Director Wang, don't worry, if you use my place, I will not only charge you a penny, but I can also help fund part of your filming funds." Zhang Junping said with a smile.
"Really? Wang Fulin was overjoyed, and then put away his smile, "I wonder what Director Zhang wants?"
"The first requirement is that the filming must be more refined and a "Dream of Red Mansions" with a soul."
"Don't worry, Director Zhang, this is the common hope of all the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions"."
"Second, the producer or producer of "Dream of Red Mansions" plus our BJ Art Company, and the other is that I want the overseas copyright.
I hope that the TV series here will not only be screened abroad, but also be screened abroad."
"I can't make the decision on this. I have to go back and report to the station."
"Yes, you can tell the leaders of CCTV that we can also invest in not only "Dream of Red Mansions" but also "Journey to the West" that is currently being filmed. There are also other TV series that we can jointly finance and film with CCTV.
The requirement is to add our company’s name and overseas copyright to the producer and producer.”
"Director Zhang, may I venture to ask how much money you plan to pay for "Dream of Red Mansions"?"
"Haha! It depends on you, Director Wang, how much money do you need to perfectly shoot "Dream of Red Mansions"?
How much money do you need, I will invest it for you!
As long as this money is not put into your own pocket, Wang Fulin, there is no upper limit on the amount of investment I can make." Zhang Junping said proudly.
My heart says, I'm afraid you won't ask, but if you dare to ask, I'll scare you to death.
"..." Wang Fulin was so shocked by Zhang Junping that he was speechless.
Are art companies so arrogant?
At the same time, his heart is also burning. If what Zhang Junping said is true, then he has many ideas that can be realized.
"In addition, I can also recruit the most experienced weaver girls from Jiangsu and Nanjing to cooperate with you and make the costumes you need.
The clothes are perfectly made according to the Shu brocade and Su brocade recorded in the book.
We can also mobilize craftsmen across the country to help you make the props you need. If you need gold hairpins, jade pendants, etc., I can arrange craftsmen to customize them according to your requirements.
I can even help you create the celebrity calligraphy and painting you need.
Believe me, in this world, when it comes to imitating ancient calligraphy and painting, no one alive is better than me." Zhang Junping continued to seduce Wang Fulin.
He knew that as long as he moved, Wang Fulin's matter would be half done.
Wang Fulin still has a lot of say in CCTV.
"Okay! I'll go back and report to the station. I can't guarantee it, but I will try my best to facilitate this matter."
"Then I'll wait for the good news from Director Wang.
By the way, only two of our four masterpieces are currently being filmed. If CCTV is interested in filming the other two, I can also invest in them.
The conditions are the same as before.
In addition, a lot of martial arts dramas from Xiangjiang, such as Jin Yong’s novels, were filmed in Xiangjiang.
If CCTV is interested, we can also cooperate.
If CCTV is short of funds, we can also cooperate by providing funds and CCTV providing personnel.
Of course, if that is the case, the copyright of the TV series will not belong to CCTV. CCTV can not sell it to other TV stations except for broadcasting it an unlimited number of times." Zhang Junping continued to seduce Wang Fulin.
At this time, Wang Fulin only hated that he was a junior official and could not be the host of CCTV.
As for copyright, what is that?
Can I eat or drink?
When did CCTV ever care about copyright?
"I understand, Director Zhang, just wait for my good news!" Wang Fulin nodded solemnly, and then left with Zhou Ruchang.
Investing in Dream of Red Mansions was something Zhang Junping just thought of.
It was Wang Fulin's words about having no money just now that reminded Zhang Junping.
In this era, CCTV in China does not pay much attention to copyright. Moreover, CCTV has many TV series plans and insufficient budget.
He is not short of money, so he can take the opportunity to invest in the TV series produced by CCTV in recent years and obtain overseas copyrights.
These overseas copyrights can be broadcast by ATV if they are nearby, and can be broadcast on some overseas TV stations if they are far away.
This is not the most important.
The most important thing is that he came up with a perfect strategy to bypass the Xiangjiang TVB blockade.
That is, buy the copyright of Jin Yong and take it back to China to film.
Then sell the TV series to ATV.
You only need to blur the boundaries of copyright when negotiating with Jin Yong to buy the copyright, and you can achieve your goal perfectly.
When buying copyright, there is usually a region, such as domestic copyright, Asian copyright, European copyright, or American copyright.
Regarding this point, the geographical restrictions can be blurred when signing the contract. After the filming is completed, it will be released in Xiangjiang. Who can say that he violated the rules?
As for the issue of speaking Mandarin and Cantonese, this is not a problem at all and can be dubbed.
Even if you speak Mandarin directly, it is not a problem.
Although people in Xiangjiang do not speak Mandarin, they all understand it.
Moreover, if there is cooperation, he can also invite actors from Hong Kong to shoot in China.
The quality of actors and directors in this era, coupled with his money, can definitely sweep through everything and crush the movies and TV series of this era.
After sitting in the pavilion having sex for a while, Zhang Junping got up and walked around Baylor House to see if anything happened.
It is free and open to the public, and dozens or hundreds of people come here every day to visit and play.
