In a private club in Beijing, watching Zhang Yimou's new film reported on TV, Zhang Yibai felt a little unsure. Ye Ming is the king of the new generation in the music industry. His record sales have now reached more than two million, and he also participated in the filming of Zhang Yimou's new film. His status is naturally extraordinary. In the room, Wang Shuo was drinking. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he looked very relaxed. Xu Jinglei sat quietly aside, as if everything had nothing to do with her. Feng Xiaogang was holding a newspaper and looking at something, also silent. Finally Zhang Yibai couldn't sit still: "Director Feng, tell me, with Ye Ming's current performance, how confident are we in asking him to star in "Love to the End"? He is already the leading actor in Zhang Yimou's new film, so he may not be willing to do it. come." If it was before, there would be no problem, but now, his popularity has reached the level of a big shot, and his appeal is not what it used to be. Feng Xiaogang then put down the newspaper and said: "Ye Ming and Zhang Yimou are collaborating. In fact, there have been signs of this for a long time. The theme song of "No One Can Be Missed" was sung by Ye Ming. As for whether Ye Ming can agree? According to my opinion of Ye Ming I understand, since he agreed to this matter, there is probably no problem." Wang Shuo snorted and said, "If you don't come, can't you change someone? Li Yapeng, right? Isn't he waiting in line to star in this drama? And the price is much lower." At this time, Zhang Yibai said helplessly: "Master Shuo, if we talk about the price, Li Yapeng has no problem, it is very cheap. But when it comes to appeal, at this time, Ye Ming still has the appeal." Wang Shuo said very rudely: "Why don't we just settle it? Why don't we just pay the money and it's over? I thought it was a big deal. I look down on you guys the most. You want to build a chastity memorial arch after being a prostitute." " Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "Master Shuo, what you said is a bit hurtful. What are you guys like? You are also in this circle, don't get yourself involved." Wang Shuo didn't accept this trick at all. Said: "Don't, your circle is too chaotic and I can't help. Don't drag me into it, or I will worry you."
Feng Xiaogang ignored this and said, "Yibai, I think you should raise the price for this matter. After all, Ye Ming's popularity is not what it used to be. When he was filming "Huan Zhuge Ge", one episode It's three thousand. Now, if you don't have five thousand per episode, or even more, I'd be embarrassed to ask him. Maybe he needs more, but not necessarily. He is only worth so much. If an album sells more than 2 million a month, he can't grab money as fast as he does. It can be said that he was able to become the brilliant chairman and take over Yonghua Film and Television entirely because of his record. This is a miracle. If you don’t have enough money, they probably won’t come. " With Ye Ming's current achievements, it is not easy for him to appear on a crew like "Carry Love to the End". It is indeed not easy at all. Otherwise, in such a situation, Zhang Yibai would not come to ask Wang Shuo and Feng Xiaogang to come forward. Back at the hotel, I found the producer Jin Jianlin. Zhang Yibai relayed Feng Xiaogang's words and exempted Wang Shuo. That was a way to attract hatred to the producer. Jin Jianlin hesitated after hearing this and said, "What Director Feng said is correct. Ye Ming's price is indeed extraordinary now. I went to inquire about it and found that Ye Ming's current quotation is 8,000 yuan per episode. The price of movie kings and queens like Chen Daomin and Wang Zhiwen is only 10,000 yuan per episode. Ye Ming’s price is indeed a bit high. We paid less because we were afraid it would not be suitable." If Ye Ming's quotation dares to call out eight thousand, that's because he has such qualifications. Zhang Yibai said helplessly: "If this is the case, then what should we do? We can't really just ask Li Yapeng to star. This film doesn't have a star to support it, so why are we fooling around?" Jin Jianlin thought for a while and said: "It's better to ask Director Feng to ask Ye Ming out for a look first. When the time comes, we can go there with enough sincerity. As long as we have shown our sincerity, I think, There is always no big problem with this matter.” In the conference room of Huihuang Film and Television Company the next day, Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "Ye Ming, I came to see you today because of the movie "Love to the End". It's a friend's matter. It won't look good if you don't help." Helping Zhang Yibai was actually not for Xu Jinglei, but for Wang Shuo's face, otherwise Feng Xiaogeng would never have come. Zhang Yibai said at this time: "Mr. Ye, actually the script of our drama is very good. I believe it will have a bright future." At this time, Ye Ming didn't say anything. However, under such a situation, Sister Fang Fang, as Ye Ming's agent, said: "Whether the script is good or not will be known after it is broadcast. Director Zhang, since he said Director Feng has spoken, so don’t talk in circles. What price can you offer? If it’s lower, it’s inappropriate.” This is very clear. There is no problem with Director Feng's face, but if the price is too low, then there will be no discussion on the matter. Feng Xiaogang couldn't even say anything. At this time, Zhang Yibai couldn't say anything. Jin Jianlin could only take over and said: "Actually, our investment in this drama is limited, so we can only give an episode price of 5,000." Sister Fang Fang snorted and said: "Many people have offered 8,000 yuan to invite Ye Ming to act. We are all considering it. If we agree to your 5,000 yuan, will Ye Ming still be in this circle in the future?" Mix it up." When it comes to this, even Feng Xiaogang has nothing to say. He also knows the things in this circle. If he doesn't act with eight thousand people, he will act with five thousand people. There is really no way to deal with him in the future. Those eight thousand explanations. Feng Xiaogang didn't expect that Zhang Yibai and the others would offer such a low price. If he had known this, he wouldn't have come at all. He knew Ye Ming's price of 8,000 very well. If you give 5,000, Where should I put my face, Feng Xiaogang? If you give me 7,000 yuan, then we can discuss it and maybe we can solve it. Now looking at Feng Xiaogang's face, there was already a hint of anger. For a moment, the conference room was silent and no one spoke. At this time, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Director Zhang, as for your play, I have already agreed to it. I keep my word. Don't worry, even if I say I won't pay a penny, it doesn't mean anything." Relationship." These words shocked Feng Xiaogang. Why don't you pay a penny? How can there be such a good thing in the world? At that moment, Zhang Yibai was simply dumbfounded. He couldn't believe his ears. His eyes widened and he said in disbelief: "Mr. Ye, are you kidding me? You won't charge a penny. Aren't you afraid of breaking the rules?" ?” Ye Ming said with a smile: "Actually, in business, I am also a businessman. Naturally, I have to focus on profits. I can not charge a penny, but I can invest in this TV series myself. Isn't your crew not enough?" Money? I can become a shareholder. When the time comes, whether I want to charge money for my own TV series or not, that will be my own business, and no one else can control it."
This matter made Zhang Yibai unable to accept it for a while. It seemed that no one in the circle had really done that, buying shares by himself? Thinking about such a method, it is actually a good way to solve the problem. Feng Xiaogang patted the table and said: "Yes, this is a good idea. Yibai, I think this is feasible. You only have more than one million. It is indeed limited to make TV series. It is not realistic to hire celebrities. If you cooperate with Ye Ming , then it will be a win-win situation, and others will not talk nonsense.” Zhang Yibai and Jin Jianlin looked at each other. In the end, it was Jin Jianlin who came up with the idea. It was not easy to hire a big shot like Ye Ming. Therefore, the price must not be low. However, if it is If Ye Ming himself is also a shareholder, what is the funding gap? Jin Jianlin was looking for investment everywhere, but to no avail. At that moment, Jin Jianlin glanced at Feng Xiaogang again. Director Feng's meaning was very clear. If you dare not agree, I will turn around and leave as if I have never been here. Therefore, Jin Jianlin thought for a while and nodded and said: "Okay, Mr. Ye is welcome to join [Carry Love to the End]." At this time, Feng Xiaogang also gave up for a long time. Looking back, Wang Shuo asked, he also had an explanation, didn't he? The rest is for Jin Jianlin and Sister Fang Fang to discuss, how to divide the shares, how to buy shares, and then just ask Ye Ming to sign after they have discussed it. After Zhang Yibai and the two left with satisfaction, Feng Xiao just said: "Ye Ming, thank you. No matter how you say it, I owe you a favor." Ye Ming said with a smile: "Director Feng, you are so polite. In fact, this book is really good. You have to become famous as early as possible, otherwise it will not be happy even if you are happy." Feng Xiaogang laughed loudly and said, "Interesting, how can you say you are not famous? You already have a film and television company, and you have reached this point in one year. Many people are envious of you." Ye Ming said with emotion: "Director Feng, at this stage, I am just an artist. I am always someone else's chess piece. When I release an album and set up a company, I actually want to become a chess player." As a chess player, Feng Xiaogang was shocked. This boy Ye Ming has quite a lot of ambitions. At this time, some people were still paying close attention to Ye Ming. Zhao Wei called from Shanghai and asked: "Ye Ming, I heard that you signed a contract with Director Zhang's [My Father and Mother]?" Ye Ming smiled and replied. Said: "Sister Weiwei, even you know about it. It seems that things spread really fast in the entertainment industry. You already know about this while filming." Zhao Wei sighed helplessly and said: "Director Zhang's movies have always been the focus. Can I not pay attention? Moreover, your poem has now become the focus of everyone's discussion. However, this time I I’m calling you to ask, haven’t you already agreed to film the second part of [Huanzhugege]? Why do you still agree to Director Zhang? There is quite a conflict here.” The second part of "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was launched in September this year, and the film directed by Zhang Yimou was also launched this winter. There is a conflict in time. It was said that Zhao Wei came to ask about this matter, but in fact it was Aunt Qiongyao's own intention to ask Zhao Wei to ask. (To be continued)
