The years are silent, eroding the river of time, a sigh, passing through the weeping willows by the river with the wind, gently passing through the warm sunshine in front of the window, and spilling the softness in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. Paired with Tchaikovsky's symphony full of vicissitudes of life, I feel that Lao Chai can indeed touch the soul of the audience. It is a sigh to the soul with each beating note. Zhang Jizhong and Huang Jianzhong came over early to wait for Ye Ming. This was a last resort. Who told them to think about inviting Ye Ming to star in a TV series? At this time, they must correct their attitudes. In the entertainment industry, there is generally an unwritten rule in such negotiations. Whoever comes first will definitely be the weaker party. After Ye Ming came over, Zhang Jizhong immediately stood up and pulled Ye Ming to sit down, as if to say that the relationship between the two people was very familiar. In fact, the two people had not seen each other a few times. But these relationships in the entertainment industry are actually the same, they are just intrigues. Ye Ming is also very familiar with this kind of thing, and he can say that he can deal with it. After Zhang Jizhong sat down, he said: "Ye Ming, I won't say much else. As for Shao Bin, there are some things I can't say. He has been kicked out anyway. Therefore, I think you are the most suitable person to play Linghu Chong." What do you think about this role? If you like it, we can discuss it further." Zhang Jizhong is actually quite cunning. In fact, with Han Shanping's phone call, Ye Ming also came to meet him. This already explained some problems, but Zhang Jizhong just likes this kind of testing. Ye Ming said with a smile: "I really heard about this. I went to audition originally. I said that this role was very interesting, but there were some problems in the end. But now that Shao Bin is no longer acting, if I take over again, I will be criticized by others in the circle. On the contrary, my reputation will be damaged. Mr. Zhang should admit this, right? " This is very obvious. If Ye Ming and Shao Bin competed for this role before the film was launched, there is nothing to say. After all, this is competition by various means, normal competition, even if there are investors behind Shao Bin , but that is one’s own ability. Therefore, although it is said that Ye Ming's acting skills are better than Shao Bin's and his reputation is greater than Shao Bin's, in the end, the crew decided on Shao Bin, and it was difficult for reporters and fans to decide. But things are different now. Under the current situation, Shao Bin has been filming for a month. If he changes people again, no matter who he changes, there will be a certain risk. Just like Li Yapeng replaced Shao Bin in his previous life, he was talked about by the media for more than a year. It was even said that Swordsman has been aired for half a year. Sometimes media reporters still use this matter to disgust Li Yapeng.
Zhang Jizhong had actually expected that Ye Ming would ask such a question. In fact, it would be a strange thing if Ye Ming said not to ask. No matter whether he said it or not, there would always be people talking behind his back about whether Ye Ming was behind it to replace Shao Bin. Therefore, at this time Zhang Jizhong thought for a while and said: "Don't worry about this matter. Director Huang and I will clarify this matter in front of the media. I will hold a special press conference to tell everyone the inside story. And you Do you think the mainland reporters don’t know about the two of us coming to Hong Kong? I think the fact that the cast of The Swordsman changed roles has already made a fuss, so it’s relatively easy to clarify. Furthermore, We will give you a suitable price, which is much higher than Shao Bin's. How about 30,000? No actor in China has such a price? "What Zhang Jizhong said, of course, is 30,000 yuan per episode. If he doesn't show enough sincerity at this time, then under such a situation, Zhang Jizhong believes that Ye Ming will definitely not consider joining the Swordsman cast. . Therefore, when he first discussed this issue, he directly revealed his trump card. Huang Jianzhong was very anxious on the side. You just told the bottom price of this thing directly. You have to do it step by step. What if Ye Ming wants to increase the price? In fact, Huang Jianzhong still knew Ye Ming unknownly. Ye Ming is now the newly minted Berlin Best Actor. If we don't give him a suitable price, there is no need to continue talking about this matter. Therefore, what Zhang Jizhong did was obviously very correct. Huang Jianzhong soon realized that he had underestimated Ye Ming. The price of 30,000 yuan per episode was indeed unique in the country. Moreover, Zhang Jizhong has always been very stingy when making TV. Even if he is a big-name star, then In such a situation, the price may not be high. Generally speaking, those big names will give a friendly price for Zhang Jizhong's sake. But Zhang Jizhong also understood very well that if he had offered a friendly price this time, then there really would be no need to continue talking about the matter. Even like this, Ye Ming was still a little dissatisfied and said: "The price is 30,000 yuan per episode. If this TV series does not take three to five months, then I think it is impossible to complete the filming, right? I starred in the first episode of Rush Hour The second part takes just over a week, and my salary is three million, and it’s US dollars. I think Mr. Zhang should be very clear about this price, right?” When asked about this, Zhang Jixin hesitated for a while. If Ye Ming moved from the big screen to the small screen, it would indeed be a step backwards. At least in the industry, no one would do this. Moreover, three million is still US dollars, which is basically 36 million. This price is something that the Swordsman crew cannot afford no matter what. This is why Zhang Jizhong really wants to use Ye Ming, but why? There was a reason for some hesitation. The price offered was too high, and obviously the crew couldn't afford it. What's more, Zhang Jizhong has always been famous for being stingy, but the price offered was too low, and Ye Ming would never agree to it. Therefore, at this time, Chang Pong thought about it and seemed to have made a very big decision and said: "What we can give. That is to say, it will be increased by 5,000 to give you the top treatment. If it is higher, it will not be our crew." It's more than I can bear." Seeing Zhang Jizhong's resolute expression, Ye Ming knew that this was Lao Zhang's limit, so he also showed his cards and said: "In terms of price, I think 80,000 is more appropriate." Zhang Jizhong , did not take into account that he was in the cafe, he was very excited, his face turned red from holding back, he immediately stood up and said: "Impossible, there is no such price in the whole of China, Mr. Ye, you have to be sincere before we can Let’s talk.” In fact, Zhang Jizhong's own bottom line is 35,000, and the crew simply cannot afford higher prices. Ye Ming is such a good guy. It seems that he is not afraid of dying at all. It costs 80,000 yuan directly. What does 80,000 yuan mean? Even if it is a company with one worker for one year, which means about 20,000 yuan, this is still a relatively good company. Ye Ming asked. Eighty thousand, this price is simply impossible to accept. Ye Ming immediately waved his hand and said: "Producer Zhang, don't be so impulsive. The price I mentioned is not asking you to give me 80,000 in cash. Externally we can say it is 80,000, but the crew can actually pay me a price of 35,000." , for another price, I want the network copyright of the Tianchao TV program. This can offset the remaining remuneration, what do you think?" In fact, in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Internet copyright was still not taken seriously, and basically no one cared about it. But Zhang Jizhong is not an ordinary person. Although he doesn't know what medicine Ye Ming sells in his gourd, as a producer, he is keenly aware that this matter is not that simple. Especially for a state-owned enterprise like Tianchaotai, he cannot make the decision at all. Zhang Jizhong rejected this matter and said: "There is no need to discuss this. I don't have that much power. That needs to be decided by the leadership. Moreover, I think that even if you apply, you may not be accepted by the leadership. Tianchaotai is pulling If we don’t have this dignity, even if we rotten the meat in the pot, we will not hand it over to others. It is simply impossible to have the online copyrights of TV series and variety shows of China Channel. You know the TV series and variety shows of China Channel? How many programs are there?”
Ye Ming actually had no idea whether Zhang Jizhong would agree to it. This was certainly not something Zhang Jizhong could win. This was actually Ye Ming's plan to delay the war. At that moment, he said: "The four major masterpieces and the online copyright of the Spring Festival Gala cannot be missing. In fact, this will not cause any loss to Tianchao TV, and it will be a big loss to your crew." , and also paid me a salary of more than one million yuan, but you still made money from this?" Ye Ming's real purpose is naturally not to talk about the TV series of Tianchao TV. He knows that it is impossible, but asking for high prices and paying back the money on the ground is a very normal thing. Therefore, he first angered Zhang Jizhong, giving Zhang Jizhong an urge to despair and the negotiation to break down, and then revealed his true intentions. In this way, Zhang Jizhong felt that Ye Ming's subsequent proposal was He is quite kind, and it is not said that this is not non-negotiable for Tianchaotai. Sure enough, after saying this, Zhang Jizhong slowly sat down. At least he thought that Ye Ming's proposal could be considered. If it was just about the four major classics and the Spring Festival Gala, it seemed that it was not impossible. Even director Huang Jianzhong felt that this proposal was negotiable. (To be continued)
