Then, they'll trick this big-spending singer into investing some money and turning the online movie into a theatrical release.
"I just finished watching it."
"Although the script is quite touching, it's still a commercial online movie after all. Paying me 500,000 to write a song is a bit too cheap..."
However, Wang Yueheng on the other end of the phone put the script back on the table, shook his head, and said...
"ah?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Hao's initial spark of hope was instantly extinguished, as if doused with cold water.
"That's right!"
Liu Wanrong and the others standing nearby nodded in agreement upon hearing Wang Yueheng's answer.
Even if the script is excellent, spending 500,000 yuan on a commercial song written by Wang Yueheng is simply beneath one's dignity.
For this kind of thing, you either don't charge a penny, it's purely for charity and to earn a good reputation.
Either don't take it on at all, or pretend you didn't see it.
After all, there are plenty of good scripts, and plenty of commercial films that beg Wang Yueheng to write songs.
"So... what's the lowest price you'd be willing to pay to write a song for our movie?"
"From the director to the actors, everyone in this production is a college student, and the filming funds were all raised through crowdfunding."
"We are all your fans, and we hope you can take good care of the future talent development of China's film industry."
"You're a student at Tsinghua University now, right? Our Beijing Film Academy has a very good relationship with Tsinghua University!"
"In the past, many school anniversary celebrations were filmed with the help of Kyoto Film Academy, voluntarily and free of charge!"
Seeing that he couldn't convince Wang Yueheng from a business perspective, Ninghao immediately started playing the student card.
She tried to persuade Wang Yueheng from the perspective that they were both college students.
His words were sincere and earnest, as if Wang Yueheng's failure to lend a helping hand would be a heavy blow to the future development of China's film industry.
This disregards the long-standing historical friendship between Mizuki University and Kyoto Film Academy.
Such eloquence impressed Wang Yueheng.
This guy would be wasting his talent if he didn't become a director.
When director Wang Wei convinced me to let this person take the lead in filming "Blossoms," he wasn't this talkative...
"I'm not interested in just writing the theme song for this big movie."
"It's even more impossible for me to invest a single penny in it, since I have several films in preparation myself and don't have that much energy or money."
Wang Yueheng's words effectively thwarted Director Ning's plans to seek any benefits from him.
Even though the other party didn't mention it.
But he could tell from the tone of his voice that if he agreed to help write the song...
This guy's next step will definitely be to convince me to throw money into it.
joke.
The Wandering Earth trilogy, the Lost on Journey trilogy, the Infernal Affairs adapted from a music video, the anti-fraud film All or Nothing...
There are so many great movies that I haven't even had a chance to make myself yet.
How could I possibly care about a senior director's online film?
"Well……"
Wang Yueheng's words dealt another blow to Director Ning Hao, who was already somewhat disappointed.
He looked terrible, holding his phone as he slowly sat down in the chair.
What's going on?
Did this idol singer call just to reject my request to write a song in person?
So even in the eyes of an idol with such upright values as Wang Yueheng, money is this important...?
Ning Hao, having learned a lesson from reality, was heartbroken.
“However, I heard from Li Yueqi that your script is adapted from a real story.”
"And they even spent a lot of copyright fees, which they gave to the mother who was the inspiration for the script?"
Hearing the seasoned director on the other end finally quiet down and stop his unrealistic fantasies, I realized that he had finally calmed down.
A slight smile appeared on Wang Yueheng's lips before he got to the point and asked the question.
