After Chen Yuan left, Hu Yibao said to Wu Zhongyang, "Mr. Wu, come to my office and sit for a while!"
Chairman's Office.
Wu Zhongyang and Hu Yibao chatted for a while, and Meng Xiangfeng quickly handed over the reviewed contract of "The Richest Man in Xihong City".
The contract was placed on Hu Yibao's desk. Meng Xiangfeng nodded, and Hu Yibao didn't hesitate. He opened the contract and signed his name directly.
Wu Zhongyang signed as well.
After both parties retained a copy of the contract, Wu Zhongyang did not act immediately. Instead, he sat on a chair, looked over the mahogany desk in front of him, looked at Hu Yibao who was sitting in the boss's chair, and took the initiative to speak.
"Mr. Hu, regarding the box office share of 'Charlotte's Troubles', the company will call you before 11 o'clock this morning."
"In addition, we would like to thank you very much for your trust in our Atlantic Cinemas and for your willingness to once again entrust us with the screening rights of 'The Richest Man in Xihong City'."
Hu Yibao looked at Wu Zhongyang, who had suddenly become polite, with a half-smile and said, "Mr. Wu, we are not strangers anymore. No matter what, we should be old friends. If there is anything, let's talk directly."
“Ahem!!”
When his thoughts were suddenly exposed, Wu Zhongyang couldn't help but cough twice, and then said with a slightly embarrassed expression.
"that……"
"Mr. Hu, this is it."
"The company just recently got a good comedy script. I hope you, Mr. Hu, can direct and star in it yourself."
"Don't worry about the investment, it's definitely a big investment."
As he spoke, Wu Zhongyang raised four fingers to Hu Yibao and said, "This time, I'll invest this much. The other 200 million is your compensation, and there will be a corresponding share of the box office."
Semi-comedy films such as "Charlotte's Troubles" and "Hidden Man" have broken various box office records one after another. The former has a box office of 2.3 billion yuan, and the latter has a box office of 1.6 billion yuan.
This made the top management of Atlantic Cinemas see the rise of domestic comedy films.
They were also a little impatient to get a piece of the pie, so shortly after the release of "Hidden Man", they directly purchased the copyrights of a large number of comedy online novels, and then the screenwriter team of Atlantic Cinemas wrote scripts for some of the best ones.
Now, we have the script and the funding.
But it lacks a director and a leading actor.
The top management of Atlantic Cinemas naturally took a fancy to Hu Yibao at the first moment and wanted him to direct and star in the film.
They also want to finalize all the relevant contracts before "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is released.
Otherwise, when "The Richest Man in West Red City" becomes popular again, it won't just be Atlantic Cinemas that wants to get a piece of the pie.
All the major domestic film investment capitals can't help but get involved.
By that time, Hu Yibao's situation would naturally rise, and it would be impossible for him to sign another contract.
Seeing Hu Yibao remained silent, Wu Zhongyang quickly revealed all his other chips and cards. "Also, all the roles in the entire film are personally designated by you, President Hu. Whoever you choose will be the one. We will definitely not interfere with your filming."
"What do you think of this?"
Wu Zhongyang has no choice now.
The senior management assigned him the task of persuading Hu Yibao to cooperate in filming a movie. As a member of the company, he had no choice but to do it.
"The pay is indeed very high!" Hu Yibao said with a smile, "Four hundred million, give me two hundred million, plus a share of the box office and the right to decide on the actors."
"If I do some internal manipulation, 300 million out of the 400 million will definitely be in my hands."
"It's impossible for me to say I'm not moved."
"But……"
Hu Yibao knew that Atlantic Cinemas trusted him, but due to the actual situation, he could only shake his head and say, "I have so many movie scripts on hand right now that I can't finish filming them all. I really don't have the time!"
After finishing filming "The Richest Man in Xihong City", we are going to film "The Shameful Iron Fist".
After the release of "The Shameful Iron Fist", the system will immediately give the scripts of two other dramas.
This cycle continued, and Hu Yibao really had no time to film the script for their Atlantic Cinema.
"Is that so?" Wu Zhongyang sighed regretfully and then asked, "Then, Mr. Hu, can you recommend our Atlantic Cinema script to Director Jiang? I heard that Director Jiang is already a member of your New World."
Wu Zhongyang had anticipated Hu Yibao's refusal. After all, he had made a similar request after the release of "Charlotte's Troubles".
Since Hu Yibao disagreed, Wu Zhongyang naturally set his sights on Jiang Gangmeng.
As one of the top domestic directors, Jiang Gangmeng's strength is naturally unquestionable.
The great success of "Hidden Man" in both word-of-mouth and box office also greatly increased his net worth.
More importantly, given the friendship between Jiang Gangmeng and Hu Yibao, if there were any problems while filming the Atlantic Cinema script, Hu Yibao, as both the boss and the friend, would naturally help Jiang Gangmeng.
This also allowed Hu Yibao to indirectly participate in the filming of the script.
"I can help you contact Director Jiang." Hu Yibao nodded.
Although Jiang Gangmeng wants to shoot his own movie, you can't just let him be an assistant director!
He has to be given some movies to direct.
Atlantic Cinema took the initiative to come to the door this time, Hu Yibao naturally would not miss it
"Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Hu." After receiving Hu Yibao's reply, Wu Zhongyang immediately stood up and thanked him, and at the same time took out a folder from his briefcase.
