Xiao Ran rubbed his nose, thinking that if Fang Ruohai misunderstood that he just wanted to be a director, it seemed that he would have to hint more about this in the future. However, this obviously did not fit in with his thinking. What he wanted was to be his own boss, and
Not working for someone else.
Lin Qingxia calmly watched the negotiation between the two. Fang Ruohai's skin was very fair and his appearance was handsome enough to attract many girls. However, this was obviously not the type Lin Qingxia liked. Since her two vigorous love affairs,
After that, she knew that she would no longer like such a handsome man.
Looking at Xiao Ran again, he is a different type of person. With slightly dark skin and a strong body, he has a very character and a very masculine appearance, plus a few wisps of smiles that always stay in the corners of his eyes, this is undoubtedly another person.
A type that attracts women. Thinking of this, Lin Qingxia felt a strange feeling.
Of course, neither Fang Ruohai nor Xiao Ran knew Lin Qingxia's evaluation of them. Seeing that they were chatting happily, Lin Qingxia's eyes stayed on Xiao Ran's face for a moment, and quickly moved away like a thief.
Then he intervened to persuade Xiao Ran: "Ah Ran, actually Ah Hai's conditions are very good, with a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan. Many big directors only get this much!"
The ten thousand that Lin Qingxia was referring to was the price that Fang Ruohai offered Xiao Ran. This price was indeed extraordinary. You must know that when Xu Ke invited Xiao Ran to join the film studio a year ago, he only planned to pay two to three thousand. Of course,
, the monthly salary is the price of raising these talents, and the screenwriting fee is another factor.
As for the price offered by Fang Ruohai for every script he writes, it is 100,000 yuan, not including dividends. Strictly speaking, as a director these days, the salary is only more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan, and only a few big directors
The net worth reaches 300,000. Therefore, anyone would be tempted by this price, which shows how much Fang Ruohai values Xiao Ran.
If Xiao Ran just wanted to be a good director and screenwriter, then he must have agreed. Money, who is willing to let it go without harming the interests of others? You must know that although this thing is the most harmful thing in the world, it is also the number one
Great power.
However, Xiao Ran still didn't agree. He was not stupid. The scripts he planned to write when he stayed here, such as "Infernal Affairs" and the like, were all works that could be sold well. Just kidding, just "A Better Tomorrow" was enough for the new movie.
The art city and the film studio have made at least 50 million yuan. If it takes another three years, the number will be more but not less.
"Sister Lin, you don't know. It's better to be a freelance screenwriter than to be constrained. I like the feeling of freedom." Xiao Ran smiled slightly at Lin Qingxia, then smiled at Fang Ruohai, rubbed his nose and continued: "You know this
This feeling is really great, and I think I am not short of money now, so I have to reject Ah Hai’s proposal with great regret!”
Just when Fang Ruohai was feeling deeply regretful, Xiao Ran thought about something very important. Why not use Fang Ruohai's funds to start a business? Yes, why not do this?
Xiao Ran never thought of this. He originally planned to establish a relationship with Yin Du. In fact, it is not difficult to establish a relationship with Yin Du. In this era when Hong Kong people have begun to panic about 1997, Xiao Ran only needs to make a film to help stabilize the situation.
film. Or make a film that expresses goodwill to the CCP. Then Xiao Ran may not need to take the initiative to find it, Yindu will automatically send it to his door.
Xiao Ran's idea all along was to borrow Yindu, the fat golden chicken, to lay eggs for himself. Once he had the opportunity and funds, he could leave Yindu and go it alone. Otherwise, the accumulation of original funds would
I'm afraid it will take several years.
Now that Fang Ruohai has come to his door, this makes Xiao Ran think about it. In fact, he still knows very well that in this era, it is better to do his best not to get too close to the bank. After all, what happened in 1989 can make Hong Kong people
I have been afraid for a long time, fearing that his good image will be ruined when the time comes.
However, he was still a little hesitant. There was no film company invested by Fang Ruohai in history. Presumably the original history was that after Fang Ruohai invested in the dreamer, because he did not meet a suitable candidate like Xiao Ran, the result was just investment instead of investment.
Start a company.
Of course, history has changed, but Xiao Ran can still grasp this key. So, he hesitated for a while, and finally made the decision to cooperate. He smiled and waved to the waiter to bring him a glass of water, and then said to Fang Ruohai: "
Ah Hai, I have a good proposal, you might as well consider it!"
Just when Fang Ruohai and Lin Qingxia were wondering what tricks Xiao Ran would come up with, Xiao Ran smiled even brighter, took a sip of water to moisten his throat and said: "Since you want to invest in making a movie, I'm curious, what do you plan to do?"
Who are you investing in?"
Fang Ruohai was stunned for a moment, obviously not expecting Xiao Ran to say these words. In fact, Fang Ruohai's target was the recently emerged famous directors such as Wu Yusen and Xu Anhua. However, he obviously heard what Xiao Ran meant and slightly
Yixiao: "I was worrying about the selection at first, but now I don't think I need to!"
This time it was Xiao Ran's turn to be surprised. He didn't expect that Fang Ruohai could guess his intention in this short sentence. Of course, he was just stunned for a moment, and he soon smiled: "Do you think I can do it?
? This is not easy!"
"If you think you can do it, then I think you can!" Fang Ruohai refused to give in at all. He was tit for tat with Xiao Ran in his words, as if he was trying to meditate.
"It makes sense. If you have confidence, you have everything!" Xiao Ran deliberately praised him, and then smiled: "How much money do you plan to invest? This is very important!"
Fang Ruohai is definitely not an idiot, and his Harvard diploma is obviously proof. Therefore, he obviously has no reason to believe that Xiao Ran can make money for him. However, don't forget that Xiao Ran's performance in front of Fang Ruohai is definitely good, at least in this regard
Above, Fang Ruohai admired Xiao Ran.
Moreover, it is just a negotiation now, and it has not yet been confirmed whether it is really a cooperation with Xiao Ran. It is indeed a cooperation, and this combination can only be a cooperation. Fang Ruohai had countless thoughts in his mind, and he remembered his father's explanation before he left the United States.
At that time, Fang Poli said sincerely: "Ah Hai, your eldest brother is better because he is stable enough. I trust him to run the business. Although you are also very cautious in doing things, you also like taking risks and challenges, so I let you go back to Asia."
Go invest. Believe me, Asia, especially China, will be the real investment hotspot in the future, so only you can do this."
So, Fang Ruohai was kicked out by his old man. It is said that his old man did this not only to play the role of his two sons, but also because he was afraid that the two sons would fight for the family property. If Xiao Ran knew this, he would probably
I admire you to death.
After thinking for a while, Fang Ruohai remembered what the old man said about taking risks, and immediately felt hot all over. He naturally knew that the greater the risk, the greater the benefit, and he was starting a business now, and he had to be motivated to start a business, so he followed
Someone as young as him is undoubtedly very qualified.
Thinking of this, he immediately made a decision, it was Xiao Ran, there was no point in making more choices. For him, this was a risk, betting on whether Xiao Ran could become a visionary producer. If he succeeded, he would be able to join the film industry
If it fails, then all he will lose is just a little money.
After pondering for a moment, he answered Xiao Ran's question: "I think if you want to do it, you must never do it small, at least five million...US dollars. I don't know much about this matter, why don't you think about it for me?
Just give me an investment statement."
Xiao Ran nodded, his mind kept thinking, but his hands were tapping gently on the table. Five million US dollars must be enough, but according to Xiao Ran's own company structure, five million US dollars is far from enough.
After thinking about it, he did not smile playfully, but said calmly: "It is inevitable to become bigger, and I think the momentum needs to be as big as possible. You know, Shaw Brothers has almost stopped production now, and it will soon.
To officially announce the suspension of production. I think opening a business in such an environment must be a very unconventional thing, and it will definitely become popular."
"You...?" Lin Qingxia gradually understood, and her surprise showed on her face without concealing it. Her beautiful eyes were cast on Xiao Ran, and there was worry in her eyes: "Aran, this is not easy.
, don’t be impulsive!”
Xiao Ran smiled softly at Lin Qingxia: "Sister Lin, don't worry, I have already thought about this matter, and it will definitely not be as bad as you think."
After continuing to talk, Xiao Ran and Fang Ruohai finalized the general details of the cooperation and negotiated a profit distribution plan. Fang Ruohai contributed the funds, and of course took 70% of the majority. Xiao Ran worked hard and got 30% of the income.
Xiao Ran was not very satisfied with this. In his opinion, this was just working for Fang Ruohai in vain.
However, he also had no objection. Since Fang Ruohai provided the money, he had already received a lot. Lei Kaitai invested in the establishment of Xinyi City, and Huang Baiming and Shi Tian could only share 1.50% equally, leaving the remaining
The next step is to divide Mecca and Raikatai.
From these figures, even a fool can see that the distribution of interests is very unfair, which is precisely the fatal reason for the collapse of New Art City. Xiao Ran will never make this mistake. Fang Ruohai promised him that the film company he will open in the future will only
Xiao Ran is a collaborator, and Xiao Ran has the final say. Others must not go beyond Xiao Ran to talk to Fang Ruohai about anything about the company. This will be written in the contract in the future.
To put it simply, the cooperation method between Xiao Ran and Fang Ruohai is just like Xu Ke's film studio. Xu Ke is directly responsible to Lei Kaitai and talks directly with Lei Kaitai to share the profits. The same is true for Xiao Ran, who directly shares the interests with Fang Ruohai.
This is obviously a happy situation for everyone, but our perfect woman Lin Qingxia doesn't like it very much. Although she and Fang Ruohai don't have much contact, a woman's intuition allows her to maintain an ordinary friendship with Fang Ruohai. And her intuition tells her,
Fang Ruohai may not be as simple as imagined.
Of course, Lin Qingxia might be too worried about Xiao Ran, her younger brother (Xiao Han is Lin's god-sister, so Xiao Ran is considered her god-brother), so she didn't see Xiao Ran's abilities. Xiao Ran didn't know what Fang Ruohai could think, but,
He must have some ideas himself.
After everything was discussed, all that was left was to open the champagne to celebrate. Unfortunately, Xiao Ran didn't drink, so he used water instead of wine to wish a happy cooperation. Of course, before establishing a film company, Fang Ruohai must have a legal one.
Company. Although Hong Kong allows individuals to invest in movies, it is still too convenient to have a company.
The next thing was simple. Xiao Ran sent Lin Qingxia home. Lin Qingxia expressed her worries on the way. Xiao Ran just smiled and comforted the breathtakingly beautiful Sister Lin.
