Chapter 105 Sony
In fact, there are no major problems with the Big Diamond project in many aspects.

The script is good, the only uncertainty is the ability of director Ning Hao and whether he can turn this good script into a good movie.

After all, there are many cases where a very good story or script is turned into a bad movie by some incompetent directors. This kind of thing happens quite often.

But Ning Hao is the only one from the mainland who was selected by the Asian Rising Star Director, so he should have extraordinary talents.

So Li Boda agreed to invest in Ning Hao's movie with a bit of a gamble.

If Ning Hao has the ability to make a good movie, then Li Boda will naturally make money from the investment, and also trigger the golden finger and gain some business talents.

If Ning Hao's ability is not good enough and he fails to make this script into a good movie, then Li Boda will at most just lose a little money - well, not just a little, but one million.

Before, Ning Hao asked Li Boda to invest two million.

But after some bargaining, Li Boda's investment share was finally set at one million.

Li Boda invested one million, and Ning Hao's final investment in this film was 4.44 million.

Three million of this was an investment in the Asian Rising Star Director Project, 440,000 was Ning Hao and his girlfriend's savings, plus the proceeds from the sale of their house and the director's salary. The remaining one million was Li Boda's personal investment.

After signing the contract and receiving a transfer of one million, Ning Hao left happily.

Sister Wang wanted to say something but stopped herself and ultimately left. She had to keep an eye on Ning Hao, no matter what. At least she had to know how Li Boda spent the one million.

Li Boda stayed in the crew of "Jingwei Filling the Sea" and continued filming.

After all, "Jingwei Filling the Sea" is almost finished, and Li Boda can't cause any more trouble at this time. It is better to finish the filming as soon as possible, and it is better to finish it before the filming of "Big Diamond" starts.

Of course, Li Boda only played a villain with only a few minutes of screen time in "Big Diamond". He could shoot the film anytime, not necessarily before the filming of "Big Diamond" started. As long as Li Boda could shoot the role of the villain company boss before the filming of "Big Diamond" was completed, it would be fine.

After getting the money from Li Boda, Ning Hao went to apologize to Xu Zheng.

how to say!

After Ning Hao got the six million investment share, he thought about looking for an actor and a female lead, and he set his eyes on Xiao Taohong.

However, after reading the script, Xiao Taohong felt that the character was not outstanding enough and was just a tool. In addition, she also looked down on Ning Hao, so she refused.

However, although Xiao Taohong refused, her husband Xu Zheng was similar to Li Boda. Both of them were very popular in TV dramas, but they could not break into the film circle.

Xu Zheng wanted to participate, and he wanted to play the villainous company boss for nothing. Even if it wasn't zero pay, it would only be 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. With a salary of 10,000 or 20,000 yuan, it would be better to just go for it and do it for nothing. Even if it got out, it would still be considered a great investment. Who knows, other film directors might hear about this and think of him for suitable roles in the future.

So with Xu Zheng's cleverness, he made such a decision.

Zero pay?
When Ning Hao heard that there was no pay, and that although Xu Zheng could not break into the film industry, he was quite famous in the TV drama circle and had some box office appeal, Ning Hao agreed to invite Xu Zheng to play the role without hesitation.

If nothing unexpected happens, this role will go to Xu Zheng.

Unfortunately, the accident still happened.

First of all, the Asian rising star director gave 6 million, but in fact only gave Ning Hao 3 million.

Then Yingyi Entertainment also took over the role of the international thief Mike.

Then, Ning Hao extorted one million yuan from Li Boda, and Li Boda took a fancy to the role of Xu Zheng.

In the end, Xu Zheng's role was gone.

When Xu Zheng received a call from Ning Hao saying that the role was gone, he frowned but didn't care too much.

After all, Ning Hao wasn't famous before, and the role only lasted a few minutes, filming would take a day at most. So if it was gone, it wasn't a big deal. So Xu Zheng didn't actively pursue it. Of course, this incident did affect his mood to some extent, to the point that he wasn't in good shape during filming and had to take a long break to get over it.

……

"Changchang, I'm here to see you!" Liu Yifei waved at Shu Chang with a smile.

"Xixi, why are you here?" After seeing Liu Yifei, Shu Chang trotted over and gave her a hug.

The two little girls hugged each other with a smile, and then started chattering.

When Li Boda saw Liu Yifei, he did not immediately go up to greet her. After all, the two sisters seemed to have not seen each other for a long time, so he let them have a good chat first.

So Li Boda greeted Liu Xiaoli instead: "Sister Liu, long time no see."

"Boda, it's been a long time since we last met. I didn't expect you to be filming with Changchang this time." Liu Xiaoli smiled when she saw Li Boda. "Isn't this a coincidence?"

"It's really a coincidence. By the way, Boda, I have found a way for Xixi to sign a contract with Sony Records. Do you want to come with me? I can talk to you. As long as you sign the contract, I can get you an album." Liu Xiaoli said to Li Boda with a smile.

"Sony Records? Forget about that. I haven't thought about releasing an album." Li Boda shook his head. Not to mention that he had never thought about releasing an album, even if he had the idea, he would never consider Sony.

"Boda, this opportunity is rare, you should think about it carefully. Signing with Sony Records can also allow you to enter the market in the small country, and even use the small country as a stepping stone to impact the European and American markets. If things go well, you may become an international superstar." Liu Xiaoli persuaded seriously.

"...It's really not necessary, Sister Liu. And Sony Records - no need." Li Boda originally wanted to persuade her, but he swallowed the words back when they came to his lips.

Having worked with Liu Yifei on two dramas, and having known Liu Xiaoli for quite some time, Li Boda had a good idea of ​​her personality and thoughts.

Liu Yifei is a treasure to Liu Xiaoli, and she wishes she could stay with her 24 hours a day.

Liu Xiaoli had already had plans or ideas for Liu Yifei's development, and she would not listen to what others said.

Liu Xiaoli wants Liu Yifei to sign a contract with Sony Records, but this matter will hardly change, no matter who comes to help.

Just like when they were filming "The Return of the Condor Heroes" before, Liu Xiaoli had vaguely revealed that she wanted Liu Yifei to focus on the film industry in the future, and she was afraid that Liu Yifei would not shoot many TV dramas in the future.

So at this time, if Li Boda tried to persuade Liu Xiaoli, it would have no effect at all except making Liu Xiaoli angry.

She is so stubborn. Once she makes up her mind, no matter what anyone says, it will be useless.

Liu Xiaoli looked at Li Boda's repeated refusals. No matter what he said, he had no intention of signing a contract with Sony and had no idea of ​​releasing an album. Liu Xiaoli felt a little helpless.

"Boda, you should think about this carefully. Nowadays, actors who are good at acting will also sing. Once they become famous, they will release albums and sing. Sony is a large international company and a very good springboard. You should think about it carefully. I, your sister, will not harm you." Liu Xiaoli finally advised Li Boda.

"I know you won't lie to me, sister, but I really don't want to release a record." Li Boda refused again.

Seeing Li Boda so stubborn, Liu Xiaoli shook her head. She could only let Li Boda go back and think about it carefully.

"Li Boda!" After Liu Yifei and Shu Chang finished being intimate, she smiled and patted Li Boda's shoulder from behind.

"Xixi, how are you doing in school recently? I heard that your school often has exams. How are your grades?" Li Boda turned around and looked at the energetic Liu Yifei, teasing with a smile.

Liu Yifei, who was originally quite happy, suddenly turned pale after hearing what Li Boda said.

Liu Yifei's acting talent is not that high to begin with, and she had missed so many classes to film, so you can imagine how her test results would be. Li Boda's words really hit the nail on the head.

After hearing Li Boda's words and seeing Liu Yifei's reaction, Shu Chang almost burst out laughing.

"Li Boda!!!" Liu Yifei bit her little fangs, looking as if she wanted to tear Li Boda apart.

……

"Cut! This scene is over!"

"I declare! [Jingwei Filling the Sea] is finished!"

Following the director's voice, the crew members began to cheer.

After more than two months of filming, "Jingwei Filling the Sea" was completed.

After attending the wrap-up party, Li Boda left the crew.

After leaving the crew, Li Boda didn't even report back to the company, but flew directly to the mountain city.

Although the filming time of "The Legend of Wei" was not too long, the filming of "The Legend of Wei" was not completed before the start of "The Diamond Judgment Day".

No, Ning Hao’s script is no longer called "Big Diamond", but has been changed to "Crazy Stone".

According to Ning Hao, [Big Diamond] is too vulgar.

However, Li Boda felt that the name "Big Diamond" was a bit vulgar, but "Crazy Stone" didn't seem to be much better.

But Ning Hao is the director, so whatever he says is what it is.

When Li Boda flew to the mountain city, he saw Ning Hao as soon as he came out of the airport. In addition to Ning Hao, there was another guy with an ugly appearance. The two of them were sitting on a tricycle and looking into the airport.
