Chapter 17:

Chen Yanping was stunned by Chu Xiaxing's logic. She was silent for a moment and couldn't help but sigh, "You really know how to say..."
Chu Xiaxing: "Then how are you thinking about it?"
Chen Yanping's eyes flashed slightly, and she hesitated and said: "Can you really help me sell the top part?"
Chu Xiaxing: "Of course, if you don't believe it, let's talk about the rating first, and then talk about "The Immortal Doctor of the Song Dynasty"."
Chen Yanping vaguely said: "Actually, I don't have much right to speak in the internal review..."
Chu Xiaxing: "You don't come here! You are in charge of the production. This can definitely be done."
The platform’s film-purchasing team will definitely deliberately lower the rating of "You in the Far Heart", but Chen Yanping is the person in charge of the production, and her views will appear more fair and objective, and the effect may be better than directly looking for the film-buying team. How could Chu Xiaxing prevent Chen Yanping from releasing any blood? Since she offered to sell movies for the other party, she would definitely have to earn some benefits.
Chen Yanping struggled for a long time, she finally nodded to answer the matter, and muttered: "You really are not like other directors at all, and you don't talk about art at all..."
Chu Xiaxing said funny: "But don't you just want to find such a director? I can talk to you about art, but the problem is that you don't want to listen."
Chen Yanping had been planted in the hands of a director who talked about art before, and now she is letting others talk about it, and she only thinks about the cost and benefits of the project. When Chu Xiaxing faces different people, she speaks differently. When a producer wants to listen to art, she just talks about art, and a producer wants to hear about making money, so she just talks about making money.
If you don't know the psychological demands of the person you are talking to, it will be useless to talk and entangle for too long.
After Chen Yanping left, Han Chuning was pleasantly surprised by the change in the producer's attitude, but she was inevitably worried: "But she hasn't decided about the "Dai Song Xianyi"?"
Chen Yanping just agreed to help in the rating of "You in the Far Heart", but did not directly determine that Chu Xiaxing is the director.
Chu Xiaxing calmly said: "She wants to look at my ability first, and then make a decision. You can make a call for me."
Chu Xiaxing instructed Han Chuning to call, and she taught her niece how to introduce herself, and then contacted her old acquaintance in the TV station. The attitude of the other party is rather friendly, and the tone of communication with Han Chuning is also very friendly. She heard Han Chuning's thoughts and only said that it would be nice to send the film to the stage another day.
After Han Chuning hung up the phone, she knew that helping Chen Yanping sell the film was half done, and she was curious: "Auntie, who is this person?"
"This is the little girl who was an intern in my crew back then. She is almost the same as the current assistant Jingjing. She is not very enterprising, and her ability is not outstanding. She has the advantage of emphasizing love and righteousness, but she is better than many people." Xia Xing explained, "I had some contacts in the past, you can't use them now, but this kind of people will be willing to take care of you."
Chu Xiaxing knew very well that many people around him wanted to ask for herself, but they might not follow Han Chuning after she left, which was quite realistic. She asked Han Chuning to call, and she would only call the right person.
Chu Xiaxing helped Chen Yanping recover some of the cost of the upper part, and Chen Yanping also rated "You in the Far Heart" as promised. After the final cut of the episode, the video platform will conduct another round of ratings, and finally finalize the purchase price based on the level and discuss the remaining distribution channels.
"You in the Far Heart" has successfully risen to a level. It has achieved a medium-cost level with a small cost of production. It has already recovered the cost and made a small profit before the broadcast. There will be other benefits after the broadcast.
In the company, Xia Hong was quite surprised when he heard the news. He had also voted for some dramas before, but the money was like a waste of water. It was impossible to pay back before the broadcast. He looked at the rating results of the platform, he was completely confused, and exclaimed: "No, it's not it, you can make money even like this, Song Wenye is a koi!"
Xia Hong: No wonder someone can be an executive in the group, he can make money even blindly, outrageous!
Song Wenye used to say that Chu Xiaxing would make a film, but Xia Hong listened to it as a joke, and laughed at his friends as being taken advantage of. Now that he thinks about it carefully, he is stupid. He obviously had countless opportunities to contact the crew, and finally watched others cancel the contract and ran away.
Xia Hong decisively called Song Wenye to report the good news of making money to him, and at the same time annoyed: "I regret it! I shouldn't agree to terminate the contract, just because she is filming in the company. If this is accumulated three or four The play, the company is really ready!"
The output of film and television companies is not high, and some small companies may have filmed one drama. If there are three or four dramas, even if they are quite large, there is still hope of listing for many years of continuous output. Of course, there are risks when there are too many backlogs in the company, but the cost of the drama directed by Chu Xiaxing is recovered before the broadcast, obviously the risk rate is not high!
Song Wenye also didn't expect to return to the original so quickly. He was a little surprised when he heard Xia Hong's imagination, but couldn't help but bluntly said: "Do you think she can get the company up and will allow you to be the boss? "
Xia Hong: "?"
Xia Hong: "What do you mean? Do you think I am not worthy of being a boss? I am doing nothing, and this is also a management method!"
Song Wenye thought of Xia Hong's ticket-based management, and thought of several loss-making film and television companies under his friend's name, and frankly said: "Inaction is true, and it is not clear to cure death."
Xia Hong: "???" Old Yin and Yang are weird?
Xia Hong said in a huff: "Then who do you think she can allow to be her boss? Can she still allow you to be her boss? If you can, you can, if you have the ability, be her boss, just knowing to be mean to me! If you don't fight with you, you will be her boss and see how hard you talk!"
Xia Hong felt that he was an old wage earner. He helped Song Wenye and Chu Xiaxing get on the line, but in the end he was rejected by both sides and was not pleased. Naturally, there was a kind of light bulb resentment.
Song Wenye: "I want to tell Uncle Xia about your new car..."
Xia Hong: "I'm in a hurry, I'm in a hurry, you're anxious when you say it, you just don't want me to be her boss, don't you can't afford it?"
Song Wenye: "..."
When Song Wenye heard Xia Hong's teasing, he didn't bother to talk to the other party for a while, so he just hung up the phone. He thought that Chu Xiaxing was also a little helpless at this time. He originally wanted to repay his past favors, but he didn't expect that Duan Chengyan would happen again. In addition, the project that was not expected to be high was also paid back. On the contrary, he owed her more.
Although his original intention did not actually ask her to make money, he does make money through the other party now, and things seem to be at a loss. The more he wants to pay back the favor, the less he understands.
On the other hand, after the rating of "You in the Far Heart" is over, the film will have to wait to be scheduled and announced, and it will be broadcasted according to the arrangement of the video platform. After Chu Xiaxing left the computer room, she hadn't heard from Chen Yanping for a while, but suddenly received a call from the other party one day.
Chen Yanping: "Are you busy today? Would you like to go with me to see the lead actor?"
Chu Xiaxing said blankly: "It's fine, but why should I meet you with the leading role?"
Chen Yanping was quite surprised: "I'm not your producer! The director will all see the starring!"
Chu Xiaxing: "?"
Chu Xiaxing said indifferently: "You haven't signed a contract with me yet, and there is no process for the Ming media to marry. Who would recognize you?"
Chu Xiaxing always pays attention to the rules of the industry. She will never work for nothing without a contract. Whoever makes the circle deceive and be deceived, it is better to be more cautious.
Chen Yanping: "???"
Chen Yanping exclaimed: "This is really the end of the review of "You in the Far Heart". Do you think I have no use value, and my attitude is completely different?"
Chu Xiaxing: "It's fine if you know it, now I will renew my fee soon, and I will change my attitude, and I will not go to work without money."
Chen Yanping said with annoyance and amusement: "I have your contract in my bag now, just come over!"
Chu Xiaxing resolutely said: "Okay, President Chen, I will be there soon."
Chen Yanping: "..."
It didn't take long for Chu Xiaxing to meet Chen Yanping in a high-end restaurant. The two slightly finalized the details of the contract, but the lead actor he met did not show up for a long time. After Chu Xiaxing talked about her contract, she couldn't help wondering: "Which star do you want to see?"
Chen Yanping explained: "The female lead role has just been selected for "The Immortal Doctor of the Song Dynasty", Zhang Anluo, have you heard of it?"
Chu Xiaxing shook his head honestly: "No, what did she do?" She has always remembered dramas but not others. At present, she doesn't have many impressions of the female celebrities in this role. There is really a generation gap.
Chen Yanping: "She has acted in "Ming Hua Momo"."
When Chu Xiaxing heard the famous drama, she couldn't help but be at a loss: "Is there an actress named Zhang Anluo in "Ming Hua Momo"? I remember that the heroine and the female partner are not called by this name."
"Minghua Moment" was produced by Chu Xiaxing's acquaintance team. She also gave some suggestions to the script in the early stage and helped friends make suggestions. This was also a classic drama of the year.
Chen Yanping: "No, she played a maid named Cui Cui."
Chu Xiaxing: "..." Everyone now redefines the term "acted"?
Chu Xiaxing joked: "Then you have to say that, hundreds of group performances in Hengdian have performed "Ming Hua Momo". There are many big scenes in this play..."
Chen Yanping glared at her and reminded: "You can't say this in front of her for a while!"
Chu Xiaxing curiously asked, "Why did you choose her as the heroine?"
With a subtle expression, Chen Yanping explained: "As requested above, she has acted as the second female number in several big dramas. Now the popularity is pretty good, and she wants to push it up again, but this kind of thing is hard to say..."
Chu Xiaxing generally understands Chen Yanping’s concerns. The video platform is estimated to be cooperating with Zhang Anluo’s brokerage company, and the two parties will work together on some projects. However, Zhang Anluo has not played a major female lead before. Her high popularity in supporting roles does not mean that the protagonist can also Row.
The heroine in "The Doctor of the Song Dynasty" is very important. Chen Yanping is naturally worried that the car will overturn, but she can't defy the high-level ideas.
Chu Xiaxing and the others waited in the quiet high-end restaurant, and Zhang Anluo was finally belated in surrounded by the staff. She wears sunglasses, and she wears all luxury brands, but the collocation does not look high-end, but has a showy temperament that highlights the logo, which is completely different from the gentle and kind maid Cui Cui in the play.
Chu Xiaxing glanced at it, and roughly understood that Zhang Anluo was not going to be popular yet, and she was quite eager to be popular now, and her dress was a little bit of a petty spirit.
Zhang Anluo was seated in the crowd surrounded by assistants. Chen Yanping looked at the staff with a little headache, and said softly: "Anluo, let your team rest at the next table, everyone is also very hard."
Chen Yanping felt that today was a private meeting, but Zhang Anluo brought so many people, it was a bit inappropriate, even bigger than a well-known actor. However, Chen Yanping has always been a person. She is well versed in the art of speaking and will not express dissatisfaction straightforwardly.
"Okay, let's go first." Zhang Anluo turned her head to the assistant again. She finally turned her head in the rush, took off her sunglasses, and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Chen to meet so early. I didn’t prepare for the scenes I took so quickly, and I’m a bit rushed today."
When Chu Xiaxing heard Zhang Anluo's tone, she suddenly showed a look of interest. It seems that Zhang Anluo still looks down on this play!
Zhang Anluo actually didn’t want to come today. She wasn’t very satisfied with "The Immortal Doctor of the Song Dynasty". Although the script was well done, the producer and director were not very reliable. She was the highest ranked among the actors. This project No matter how you look at it, the risk is quite big.
Although Zhang Anluo has not played a leading role, the production team she has worked with in the past is very good, so she feels that she is not the same as Chen Yanping and Chu Xiaxing. Chen Yanping and Chu Xiaxing's dresses are also relatively low-key, especially Chu Xiaxing is simple and unpretentious, and Zhang Anluo feels that the other party is still a small director.
Zhang Anluo: "What do you want to drink? The red wine here is good. Drink a little bit of invigorating blood and beauty, otherwise we open a bottle?"
Chen Yanping: "What do you want to drink? Let me have some."
Zhang Anluo looked at Chu Xiaxing who was silent, and then tentatively said: "Where does the director usually drink red wine?"
Chu Xiaxing confessed: "I don't know where the wine at home is." The red wine in her house is made by Chu Qiuyi, and she is not interested in these bells and whistles.
Zhang Anluo showed a clear look in her eyes, and she pointed out: "There are many doorways in the red wine. The director should drink less miscellaneous brands..."
Chen Yanping smiled and rounded off: "I don't understand at all, otherwise you will choose a bottle."
Zhang Anluo: "Then I'll be more respectful than fate. The director can taste it today. This wine is different from yours at home..."
How could Chu Xiaxing not understand that naive children were disarming Mawei, she wanted to suppress herself before entering the group. Although the crew should listen to the director, it is also a place to watch the coffee. Zhang Anluo obviously feels that he has a high coffee position and speaks completely.
"Chu Xiaxing!"
Just as Chu Xiaxing was about to open his mouth, he suddenly heard a familiar shout from the side, and suddenly looked stunned. When she turned her head, she saw Chu Qiuyi who was smiling at Yan Yan, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Why are you here?"
Chu Qiuyi walked towards Chu Xiaxing, and she saw two strange women on the table again, and she complained: "It's okay. I will ask you out thousands of times. You are very active to eat with others... …"
When Chu Xiaxing heard the familiar sour smell, she suddenly felt that the crowds were growing up, and explained: "Stop making trouble, I'm talking about business with people."
Chu Xiaxing: What kind of bad luck is this unexpectedly encountering the ancestor here!
Chen Yanping looked at the mature and beautiful Chu Qiuyi, and said in doubt: "This is..."
Chu Qiuyi took a seat next to Chu Xiaxing without anyone, and said naturally: "Oh, hello, I am Chu Xiaxing's sister, my name is Chu Qiuyi."
Chu Xiaxing looked at her sister in disbelief: "???" You are afraid that you will rebel! ?
Zhang Anluo looked at the unusually beautiful Chu Qiuyi with a stunned look. She could see the other's extraordinary family background. Chu Qiuyi was pretending to be a top match, and she suddenly felt that her dress was eclipsed.
The so-called pretence is that those who understand naturally understand, and those who don't understand are like outsiders.
Chu Xiaxing didn't care about these, so she didn't mind either. Zhang Anluo cared about these very much, so he lost his momentum a bit.
Chu Qiuyi squinted at Zhang Anluo, who was like a nouveau riche, and immediately turned the corner of her eye to one side, as if she couldn't like the other party's non-styled dress. She glanced down at the wine on the menu, and then covered her mouth in surprise: "No, no, no, there are still people who drink this kind of wine. If you don’t drink my wine at home, just run out to drink swill. , How come it's like never seen good wine..."
Zhang Anluo's face suddenly became very bad: "..."
Chu Xiaxing listened to the familiar taste, she couldn't help but rubbed her temples, and stopped saying: "It's almost done..."
Chu Xiaxing: If you really say something, you just pretend to commit crimes!
