Chapter 204 Remove Cheng Jiashang, Wu Ershan! (The first update asks for a subscription!)
At noon the next day, Tang An first met Yu Dong in a hotel box.

Yu Dong was dragged into bed by him in such a daze, no matter what, he had to give an explanation to make him feel at ease.

"Yu Dong, let me apologize to you first, I was a little abrupt last night!"

"Director Tang is polite, I should thank you if you think of me in good things!" After Yu Dong finished speaking, he smiled and waited for Tang An's explanation.

Tang An didn't talk nonsense, straight to the point, "Actually, I have been following the project of "Painted Skin" for a long time. In the past two years, I have filmed two TV series of the "Liao Zhai" series. The audience is high, and the audience is familiar with this story!"

Yu Dong nodded. Everyone knew about this, and it was not enough for him to throw tens of millions of funds into it.

There are many famous stories in ancient times, such as "Feng Shen Bang", "Journey to the West", "Mulan", etc., those are not as widely spread as Liaozhai.

Tang An continued, "The cost of "Painted Skin" is not very high. There are no big scenes. Most of the filming is done indoors. If you don't invite top stars, the budget of 7000 to [-] million should be enough!"

"And I can name the producer, at least to ensure that the box office is more than [-] million!"

Yu Dong, who had been indifferent all this time, was moved in his heart. With Tang An's reputation, as long as the film is not bad and hopeless, there will be no problem guaranteeing a box office of [-] million.

All that needs to be said has been said, and Tang An is waiting for his reply.

Yu Dong silently calculated an account in his mind. If the box office is 1 million, if the cost is controlled at 6000 million, the three companies will share it equally. If he invests 2000 million, the box office share can be divided into more than 1000 million, plus the distribution fee. It is 2000 million.

It is impossible to lose money, this kind of costume film still has overseas copyrights, so you can make more money!
This business can be done, but there is still one biggest question in Yu Dong's mind.

"Director Tang, I can join the team, but you have to be honest with me, why did you find me? With your company's funds, there should be no shortage of 2000 million yuan!"

It is impossible for pies to fall from the sky for no reason. If there is, it means that someone deliberately smashed you on the head and wanted to smash you to death!
He has been in business for more than 10 years, and he still has this basic vigilance.

Tang An smiled wryly, and then said sternly, "Now that the matter is up to now, I will not hide it from Dong, and I would like to ask Dong Yu for help!"

coming!

Yu Dong asked curiously, "Director Tang, if you have anything to say, just say it."

"I want to remove the tentative director Cheng Jiashang!" Tang An said word by word.

Hearing what Tang An said was this, Yu Dong was astonished.

He knew about the incident two days before the release of "The Wind" before. Tang An has never acted, making people think that he will not take revenge.

Unexpectedly, at such a young age, he had endured until this moment before suddenly attacking him.

This is the first time for Cheng Jiashang to film in the mainland, and it is a major production of ancient costumes. There are not many films of this level in a year. If Tang An just takes it away, it will undoubtedly be a major blow.

Flaws must be reported, if you don't make a move, you will be punished, and if you make a move, you will hit the key place. You are a person who does great things!

Yu Dong also had a clearer understanding of Tang An, but this also made him even less aware of Tang An's intention to join Huayi.

Are you willing to work for the Wang brothers in Huayi?
Yu Dong shook his head secretly, and didn't think too much about it. No matter what Tang An planned in Huayi, it had nothing to do with him.

Ji'er laughed and said, "It's just a Cheng Jiashang. If Director Tang has a more suitable director, it doesn't matter if he is replaced!"

"Then thank you Dong for your help. I will determine the candidate as soon as possible, and I will ask Dong to check it out then!"

After finishing the business, we started to eat.

But later Yu Dong mentioned another matter, he could bring in another Singaporean film company. This company has always wanted to enter the mainland film industry, and at the same time bought the distribution rights of many mainland films in parts of Asia.

Tang An of this company also knows that "New Police Story", "Thousand Machines 2", "Seven Swords", "Certificate of Fame", including the later "Jiangshan Beauty", "Fengyun 2", "October Besieged City", "Jinyiwei" ", "A Chinese Ghost Story" and other films in some Southeast Asian countries have been awarded the distribution rights.

Moreover, even though the Japanese benzene people have taken over the distribution rights of "Red Cliff" in Asia, they still have the distribution rights in several countries.

Among them, there are profits and losses. After 12 years, it seems that there has been no re-investment or distribution of mainland movies, and it is estimated that it has lost all.

"Certificate of Voting" also had their investment, replacing part of the full copyright in the Asian region, and the result was naturally that they lost all their money.

It is estimated that Bernard and China Film Group paid less for this film, and the other seven or eight investors all lost.

Yu Dong proposed to let the other party use part of the investment to replace the Asian copyright of "Painted Skin", and Tang An also agreed. Most of this film is in the mainland, and it is estimated that it will not sell much overseas.

After eating, Tang An went back to the studio. Today is Saturday, September 9st, and he doesn't have to go to work.

"How about it, did you find that Wu Ershan?"

"I found it. I went to Shiyue Tang Wenhua in the morning and contacted him. He will be here at three o'clock in the afternoon."

Three o'clock!

Tang An looked at the time, and it was only an hour away.

"That's fine, then let him come to my office directly!"

Tang An nodded and returned to the office.

More than half an hour later, Wu Ershan arrived as scheduled, and came to the door of Tang An's office nervously.

As a new director, as long as he is not stupid, he can realize why a film and television production studio took the initiative to come to him.

Clutching the script of "The Smile" in his hand, he took a deep breath and raised his slightly trembling right hand to knock on the door.

"Please come in!"

Wu Ershan tried to calm himself down, gently opened the door and walked in.

"Hello, Director Tang!"

For any new director, Tang An is an untouchable existence, and it is also the goal they strive for.

In addition to such a rapid rise and such dazzling achievements, the key is that he is still so young.

Tang An has never even studied directing, so he can do it at such a young age, and I can do it if I change it.

Many young directors think so!
"Director Wu, please sit down!"

Tang An nodded and motioned him to sit across from him.

He didn't take the initiative to get up to greet, salute the corporal, and he wasn't very enthusiastic.

Tang An cut to the chase and said, "Director Wu must know why I came here for you, right?"

Wu Ershan said quickly, "Director Tang please give me instructions."

He was still a little nervous, no matter if he fell in love with the book "Smile in the Sword" or asked him to make other films, even if he was to be Tang An's assistant, it would be a great opportunity.

But hearing Tang An call him Director Wu made him feel at ease!

Then the front desk brought in two cups of tea. Wu Ershan took a sip of the tea to calm down, so he was not so nervous, and quietly waited for Tang An to speak!
Tang An smiled and said, "I heard that Director Wu has a notebook of period films, can you let me have a look?"

I can't find Wu Ershan's previous films, but through the script and the shot script, I can roughly understand his current characteristics and level!
