Reborn in the Chinese Entertainment Industry: My Childhood Sweetheart is Boss Yang
Chapter 244: They're all spies sent by the rivals.
The next morning, Lu Zhen and Jing Tian rushed to Yuanjian Entertainment.
When Boss Lu heard that Yuanjian could write a script to help Da Tiantian turn her career around, he was surprised.
That foot was pressing the accelerator faster than a little rabbit!
Actually, looking at the two people sitting awkwardly on the sofa, Gu Heng sometimes felt quite sorry for Lu Zhen.
You think this guy's rich? He's fucking rich!
To promote Jing Tian, they poured real money into the project without batting an eye.
But why can't it become popular?
Can you blame Jing Tian for being incompetent?
Of course not!
Jing Tian's acting skills have become a little bit wooden lately.
With that look and figure, he's definitely a top contender in the industry.
It's just that the team behind the scenes who are paid to do things is so unreliable!
Gu Heng sometimes wondered just how unlucky a person had to be.
That's how you manage to stumble into pitfalls at every turn.
Are the entire film crew spies sent by the rival company?
But things are different now. This time, it's Gu Heng's Vision Entertainment that's in charge!
As soon as Lu Zhen sat down, his eyes were fixed on Gu Heng with fervent eyes, as if he was about to pounce on him, hug his leg, and call him "God Gu".
It was worth all the effort he put in to hitch a ride on Vision's coattails; the ticket was definitely worth it!
"Director Gu, you really have to lend me a hand this time!"
"I'll accept the mess with the Warring States period. But we can't let Tian Tian be ruined like this! That script you mentioned yesterday..."
Gu Heng didn't waste any time. He opened the drawer, took out a few light A4 sheets of paper, and pushed them in front of Lu Zhen.
Really, it's just a few sheets of paper!
Last night, Gu Heng spent a little over an hour working out the plot outline of "Si Teng".
As for the script? There's not even a hint of one!
He hasn't even managed to come up with his first line in the first episode.
But Gu Heng has such a strong mentality!
He slammed the papers on the table and said without batting an eye.
"President Lu, the project is still in the initial preparation stage. This is the core outline."
Lu Zhen took the outline and glanced at it briefly.
"Si Teng".
Set in the Republican era, the story features a female demon who has been asleep for decades, a proud and cunning queen, and a modern-day loyal male servant.
After watching for a few minutes, Lu Zhen, though he didn't understand the specific screenwriting techniques, had an intuition that this character was tailor-made for Jing Tian!
Moreover, unlike in "The Warring States", he doesn't have to compete with a group of veteran actors in terms of acting skills.
As long as you put on all kinds of gorgeous cheongsams and act like a queen, you've already won more than half the battle!
Although the two families are close because of Yang Mi and Jing Tian's best friend relationship, Lu Zhen is a businessman who only cares about business.
"Brother Gu, personal matters are personal, but business is business! Even brothers should keep clear accounts, so just tell me the terms!"
Gu Heng liked this kind of straightforward person, who saved him from beating around the bush.
"Brother Lu is very frank, so I'll be frank with you too."
"The script isn't finished yet, so the cost is still uncertain."
"But we have a visionary control over this project, and the script is also considered ours."
"We want 6% of the share, but Vision will only contribute 4%. The remaining 6% will go to you, Starlight Brilliant, and you will only have a 4% share."
Lu Zhen listened.
Good guy!
Vision puts in 4% and takes 6%, while Starlight puts in 6% and only takes 4%.
I heard all about this scheme in Sanlitun!
If it were Huayi or Guangxian daring to offer such a price, Lu Zhen would definitely point his finger at them and yell, "Are you crazy for money?!"
Seeing that Lu Zhen looked a little constipated, Gu Heng slowly began to deceive him.
Oh no, I mean reasoning with them.
"Old Lu, these terms sound shady, but let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart."
"This script, female lead! It's a sure hit!"
"You spent so much money assembling a top-tier lineup before, did you hear the impact? But mine is different!"
Gu Heng slammed his hand on the table, exuding domineering confidence: "I'll personally oversee the project, focusing on visionary control! I can not only help you make money, but I can also make Jing Tian a complete success!"
In one sentence, he directly hit Lu Zhen's weak spot.
I'm not afraid of you being after money; I'm afraid you'll take the money and not do the job!
Just like getting a circumcision at the hospital, the pain is at the moment the anesthesia is injected. Just grit your teeth and get through it, and afterwards everything feels refreshing!
Lu Zhen gritted his teeth and slapped his thigh hard: "Let's do it! President Gu is so decisive, it's settled then! I'll have someone prepare the contract and send it over tomorrow, and I'll have the finance department transfer the money immediately after it's signed!"
More than half an hour later.
As Jing Tian stepped out of the Vision Entertainment building, the cold wind outside made him a little dazed.
"Brother Lu...we're putting up the majority and taking the minority, won't that be a loss?" Da Tiantian asked.
Lu Zhen stopped and looked back at the brightly lit sign in the distance, then suddenly grinned.
"Loss? I made a killing!"
Do people in the industry think Lu Zhen is stupid?
Are people who are naive, rich, and easily fooled?
Did he not know that Gu Heng was going to ruthlessly rip him off?
He knew it better than anyone else!
But he was really frantic!
Other directors and companies, under the guise of promoting their stars, use their glittering money to live a life of luxury.
In the end, they produced a terrible movie that even they themselves wouldn't watch, and they didn't make a single penny back!
But what about Vision here?
Gu Heng took the lion's share, proving that he had absolute confidence.
Forward-thinking projects, at least you can see a return on your investment!
It's just spending money.
But how to spend it is an art.
After seeing off this money-giving boy, Gu Heng turned around and threw the shabby outline into Xing Aina's screenwriting department.
Gu Heng issued the order without any hesitation, "You have half a month to flesh out the script! The dialogue must be both sarcastic and elegant!"
As for Jing Tian...
Gu Heng certainly didn't let her stay idle.
They arranged everything clearly and precisely for her.
"Jing Tian, starting tomorrow, you're going back to the Beijing Film Academy! I've already spoken to the school; you're going straight back to the drawing board for retraining!"
