After all of them were reborn, who would still be an actor?

Chapter 32 The Horrifying Huayi
The casting strategy of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" will continue in the TV series of Sugar Man in the next ten years: boldly use young "handsome men and beautiful women", and the actors' pay accounts for no more than one-third of the overall production.

Afterwards, Tangren entered a period of rapid development. In the following few years, it created three blockbuster movies in succession, The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Immortal III, and Startling by Each Step.

Not only did it make Tangren Sanbao famous, it also made many new generation actors famous, and made many veteran actors become more popular or even more popular.

In the domestic entertainment circle, sugar people can reach the top.
As the helmsman, Cai Yinong, no matter how emotional he is, is essentially just a businessman.

"Hello, Mr. Cai." Li Mingyang said with a smile.

"How is the writing of the TV drama script you promised me going?" Cai Yinong asked knowingly.

"I didn't write it."

Cai Yinong put down the documents in his hand and said unhappily, "Are you kidding me?"

"I'm just a student, how dare I offend the Sugar Man!"

Li Mingyang sat opposite Cai Yinong and said seriously, "Tangren has always been focusing on ancient costumes, and there is no one better than Tangren in this field. However, modern dramas are a new field. You have confidence, but the TV station may not have the same confidence."

"Who told you to sit down? Stand up!" Cai Yinong said coldly.

This woman is so fierce...

Li Mingyang stood up silently and was about to tell his plan.

Cai Yinong threw a notebook over and said, "I gave you a chance, food and drink, and housing allowance for the script. Since you can't produce a script, you have to pay me."

Li Mingyang opened the notebook and saw that Cai Yinong was calculating with great intensity!

He was charged for everything, even the cost of cleaning up the lunch boxes.

There are more than twenty pages of accounts, totaling thirteen thousand.

After coming to Hengdian for a month, Li Mingyang only received 3,000 yuan from Cai Yinong...

The four people worked as free labor for so long, not only did they not make any money, but they soon owed 13,000 yuan.

Loan sharks all shake their heads when they see this!
"Boss Cai, this... even if we don't have any credit, we have worked hard!"

"Who has not toiled? Has not he who settles the accounts toiled?"

"No money."

Li Mingyang didn't want to give money, so Cai Yinong snorted coldly: "I heard that you are very familiar with people from Youku."

"so so."

"Tangren is negotiating copyright fees with Youku recently. If you help me negotiate a good price, I will give you a commission to pay off the debt."

Li Mingyang rolled his eyes in his heart. Cai Yinong, who could make this account book, was definitely not an ordinary stingy person!
If he could get a penny from Cai Yinong for doing this favor, even a sow would climb a tree.

"It's a bit difficult. I had a falling out with Youku." Li Mingyang scratched his head. "Mr. Cai, how about this? I plan to make a movie about love like a bouquet of flowers. How about you count it in?"

Cai Yinong laughed and said, "Making a movie? That's hilarious. If your movie can pass the review, I will write off your debts and let you be the male lead in Tangren's next drama!"

Cai Yinong is not exaggerating.

Huayi is a powerful company, having been deeply involved in the film industry for so many years, and it can pass the review with just one phone call.

"Since I dared to shoot, I expected to be blocked." Li Mingyang said confidently: "I am confident that they can't block me."

"Haha." Cai Yinong sneered.

"Mr. Cai, the budget for this movie is one million. Are you really not going to invest a bit?"

Cai Yinong's face froze. "One million? Are you kidding? One million is not even enough to invite Liu Yifei. What are you dreaming about?"

"I don't plan to give her money. I'm helping her, why should I give her money?" Li Mingyang said in a firm voice.

This... seems to be a promising idea!
Although I hate Liu Yifei, I have to admit that Liu Yifei is too famous.

The leading female character in the Sino-US co-production "The Forbidden Kingdom"!

Jackie Chan and Li Lianjie play supporting roles in this film.

Liu Yifei became an international movie star with just one movie.

Popularity is at its peak!

Not to mention her peers, even the big stars are inferior to her.

"No pay, how could you come up with that." "Give it a try, if it succeeds, you'll make a ton of money!"

Cai Yinong was moved. If she wasn’t, she would be a fool.

With the added fame of The King of Kung Fu, Liu Yifei's current movie pay is at least three million.

But Cai Yinong did not agree immediately.

Li Mingyang is taking advantage of the situation. She doesn't want to take the lead because the benefits are not big enough and she doesn't want to offend Huayi.

Especially... at this critical juncture when Huayi is preparing for its IPO.

Thinking of this, Cai Yinong looked at Li Mingyang deeply.

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.

It is normal for Huayi to suppress Li Mingyang.

But if it can’t be suppressed, Huayi will be in big trouble!

The next moment, Cai Yinong thought of Shanghai Film Group!

……

China Film Group and Shanghai Film Group are the two giants in the domestic film industry.

The chairman of Shanghai Film Group is Lao Ren, and the chairman of China Film Group is Lao Han.

At this stage, Shanghai Film Group’s revenue crushes China Film Group, and its profits even surpass those of China Film Group.

China Film has been on the verge of losses in recent years.

As one of the largest capitals in the Shanghai circle, Shanghai Film Group pays more attention to revenue and profits.

Lao Ren once said: "We have a principle in running a business. We don't seek a lively scene or superficial prosperity, but development is based on profit."

Old Ren is profit-driven and is an important support for Li Mingyang to break the impasse.

However, in the process of communicating with Shanghai Film Studio, Li Mingyang found that he had really overestimated Shanghai Film Studio.

Even though Liu Yifei was likely to join and the total investment budget for Love Like a Bouquet was only one million, Shanghai Film Group was unwilling to invest.

"It's good for young people to be full of energy, but they shouldn't be impulsive." Director Tian sighed, "Don't bother with that. Even if you have the ability to make it, it won't pass the censorship. I've told you many times what a movie that can't pass the censorship means."

"They can't be stuck forever..." said Li Mingyang.

"It's no problem at all if you can hold me back for three to five years."

Well, this time is indeed too long. "Teacher Tian, ​​if my photos are okay, can the school help me a little?"

"They are discussing whether to expel you..."

Li Mingyang was speechless. He knelt down too quickly.

"Would you like to come to the directing department?" Director Tian said.

I am going to the directing department now, isn’t it because I am afraid of Huayi?
Now that it has come to this, I definitely can’t back down!
Li Mingyang rejected Director Tian's kindness, hung up the phone and continued to prepare for the movie.

He called and messaged his famous seniors at the Beijing Film Academy, asking them to make a movie with him, but most of them ignored him.

Except for a few who advised him not to shoot.

Even so, Liu Yifei didn't publicly refuse...

Huayi is really scary at this time...

Not only can't we find other stars to join.

It is also very difficult to make a good behind-the-scenes appointment, and it’s not a matter of money.

The entertainment industry's most serious area where seniority is the most serious is behind the scenes.

Big directors usually have their own production team. Internal staff must inform their superiors in advance before taking private work and cannot take work casually.

Huayi has informed all the big directors in the Beijing circle and forbidden them to promote Liu Yifei.

Even the behind-the-scenes people are involved.
