What should I do if the task is heavy and the deadline is urgent?
Add money!
How can we let workers work overtime without paying them more?
Wen Ying blushed, "We creative people are usually too embarrassed to ask for money, but in a special situation like this, I think I should ask for it... Don't worry, Miss Ran, I have a strong professional ethics and will definitely not ask for too much!"
Generally, creative people are embarrassed to ask for money.
Ran Keqing had been mentally prepared for Wen Ying's "exorbitant" request. After all, Wen Ying was different from ordinary writers. The only thing missing from Wen Ying was that "vanity" was clearly written on her face.
How much will Wen Ying ask for?
Ran Keqing's warm smile became meaningful, and she did not respond for a moment, and the office fell into an abnormal silence.
This is a negotiation technique.
Since Ran Keqing spoke first, Wen Ying felt more confident.
Ran Keqing wanted Wen Ying to be unable to hold back and speak out the specific offer first!
Ran Keqing was playing a psychological game, and Mr. Zhang wanted to agree immediately.
Being able to pay extra to buy the script is already great. I couldn't even meet Wen Ying before. Once we've worked together, there will be a second time. If we work together twice more, why worry about not being able to steal Tianjiao's golden hen home?
In fact, Mr. Zhang also considered poaching his cousin Zhang Guangzhen, but Zhang Guangzhen was too stubborn. He had to schedule scripts. If he wanted to poach him - sorry, the previous queue numbers had to be taken back and re-queued!
He is old, stubborn and opinionated.
This is the label that Mr. Zhang gave to Zhang Guangzhen.
I heard that Zhang Guang was really scared because he was cheated by others in the past, which is why he is so nervous now.
It is not easy to deceive the original family, so Mr. Zhang changed his target and prepared to deceive Wen Ying.
Young people are more passionate and easily moved by "dreams", but they don't have much social experience. They are the easiest to deceive, or rather, the easiest to be moved.
Unfortunately, Yuan Fenghui was too smart and had a firm control over Wen Ying, the golden hen, leaving Mr. Zhang with nowhere to start.
Yuan Fenghui, who had gone out to pour tea, hadn't returned for a long time. Mr. Zhang couldn't resist the temptation, as this was a rare opportunity. "Teacher Xiaoyu, just name your price. We originally wanted to ask you for a script, so how can you say you're asking exorbitant prices? If the script isn't good, it won't matter how great the director and actors are. I don't understand many advanced theories. The key to my judgment of a film is whether it's good or not!"
Does it look good?
wrong.
Wen Ying silently added in her heart: Mr. Zhang should judge the quality of a movie by its box office!
Mr. Zhang is a very vulgar person. He only cares about the box office when making movies, which makes Wen Ying put some of her worries to rest.
If Mr. Zhang is aiming for an award and wants an award-winning script, Wen Ying will directly refuse.
Whether you can win the award is not up to Wen Ying!
Wen Ying certainly wanted to win more awards to prove herself, but she wouldn't deliberately cater to the judges' tastes just to win awards. She had the final say on what kind of stories to write and how to write them.
This was not the first time that Ran Keqing was backstabbed by Mr. Zhang, and she couldn't help but glare at Mr. Zhang fiercely.
Mr. Zhang just pretended not to see it.
The Ran family is wealthy and has no shortage of money earned from a movie, but Mr. Zhang does!
Ran Keqing actually used money-making as a tool to suppress her love rival. Mr. Zhang thought that if it were his own daughter, she would have been hung up and beaten three times a day!
Mr. Zhang made a decision immediately. If Ran Keqing continued to cause trouble, Liansheng would leave Huanyu behind and make the film on its own.
Well, that’s it. First, find Wen Ying to buy the script, and then explain it to President Ran in person afterwards!
Mr. Zhang was determined to leave Ran Keqing alone and was even more enthusiastic: "Teacher Xiaoyu, I am really sincere!"
Wen Ying pretended to be embarrassed, "Actually, I usually don't accept custom scripts. I'm afraid there are too many restrictions."
Mr. Zhang sighed, "There aren't any restrictions. They say it's a custom script, but in reality, it only specifies a general creative direction. Teacher Xiaoyu has full control over the content!"
In order to dispel Wen Ying's concerns, Mr. Zhang also gave a brief introduction to the project.
Liansheng and Huanyu want to make a costume blockbuster.
The story setting is based on martial arts but also transcends martial arts. Love scenes are indispensable, and brotherhood and family affection must also be shown.
“This story should be refreshing.”
Mr. Zhang lamented, "I don't know if Mr. Xiaoyu pays attention to the film market. In the past two years, everyone has been making blockbusters, but they are criticized as soon as they are released."
It takes a lot of investment to make a blockbuster movie.
The actors invited are all very good.
The picture is well shot.
After watching it, the audience said it was ugly!
Mr. Zhang also discovered a problem: the top-grossing movies were all adaptations.
Adapt myths and legends, martial arts novels, and historical stories.
These seem to have become a guarantee of box office success because there is a mass audience base.
Mr. Zhang didn’t say that the adaptation was bad, he just saw it too much… and wanted to see something different.
Some of those foreign commercial blockbusters are adapted from best-selling books, while some are not. They are just scripts written by movie screenwriters!
"In the beginning, I actually wanted to buy the adaptation rights for 'Looking for Yong'. When I discussed this with Mr. Yuan, he asked me if I had the confidence to make it a success. I was stumped by his question. I didn't have the confidence to make 'Looking for Yong' a success, so I had to settle for the next best thing and ask Mr. Xiaoyu to customize a script that Liansheng was confident it could be filmed."
Mr. Zhang started talking, and Wen Ying was surprised.
Yuan Fenghui and Wen Ying talked about Mr. Zhang's working style, saying that this person was very harsh on Liansheng's artists and was a stingy person who could squeeze oil out of a stone.
If Wen Ying falls into Mr. Zhang's hands, Mr. Zhang will be able to squeeze Wen Ying dry!
Such a person, who is so passionate about movies, is actually worried about the entire film industry?
