Wang Zhongjun was having a celebratory dinner with his company. Of course, Lau Tianwang and the rest of the main cast of 'Crazy Stone' were there too.
It was a low-key celebration. No media was informed because Feng Yu was there too.
Lau Tianwang and the rest of the Huayi Brothers knew that Feng Yu was an easy-going person, so they were not nervous. But Ning Hao and the rest were very reserved. They did not expect to have the chance to eat at the same table as the richest man.
"All of you are good actors. You will become more and more popular in the future. You might even get more awards." Feng Yu praised.
"Thank you, Mr Feng." Xu Zheng stood up and said.
"Sit. Why are you all standing? My whole family loves your TV series. I brought a few good scripts for you all today. Take a look and see if you like them. "
Feng Yu wrote out the outline of the three scripts and asked Wang Zhongjun to arrange a professional scriptwriter. After that, Feng Yu changed some lines and came up with three good comedy scripts.
"This is' Crazy Racing '. Ning Hao, take a look and see who is suitable for the role. I think Huang Bo is not bad."
"This is' Night Club '. Xu Zheng, you can try to direct it. And this is' Settle the Father-in-Law '. Many people are complaining that it's too hard to get married. This theme should be more popular. You guys can discuss it. "
Ning Hao and the rest were curious. Could this script be the original work of the richest man?
They took the scripts and read them carefully. The more they read, the more surprised they were. This script was too good. It was full of jokes.
"Ning Hao, you are from Lau Tianwang's company. We will not say much. We can continue to invest in this. With our distribution capabilities, I believe no one will be worried. Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, you guys are either working alone or with small agencies. Come to the Huayi Brothers. We will pay for the breach of contract. "
Feng Yu did not make this decision on a whim. Wang Zhongjun and the rest also felt that it was suitable.
Other than Xu Zheng, only Guo Tao was slightly familiar. The rest were only slightly better than the extras. Most of them didn't have a management company. They mainly relied on the recommendation of familiar directors to audition, and then grabbed any opportunity to perform.
Xu Zheng and the others looked at each other. The others agreed without hesitation, but Xu Zheng said hesitantly, "Mr. Feng, I still have a TV series contract with the original company. This is a little troublesome."
"It's alright. You can continue filming the TV series and distribute it however you want. As long as you don't object, we, the Chinese Brothers, will settle the contract," Wang Zhongjun added.
Among them, the ones he admired the most were Xu Zheng and Ning Hao. In his opinion, it would be too easy to sign the others since they were not famous.
There was no need to talk about Xu Zheng. His television series was already very popular. Whether it was Zhu Bajie or Li Wei, they had both garnered him a lot of fans.
Ning Hao was indeed very talented to be able to direct a movie like this. It was a pity that he couldn't poach him in front of Heavenly King Liu. Furthermore, Heavenly King Liu had shown kindness to Ning Hao, so Ning Hao might not jump ship.
Fortunately, Ning Hao's contract period was not long, so it was not impossible to sign him in the future.
Heavenly King Liu couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Feng, did you write all these scripts?"
"I only provided an idea for the story. The scriptwriter was mainly someone else."
"General Manager Feng is too humble. This script is not only General Manager Feng's original creation, but he also meticulously revised it. After we saw it, we all felt that it was very interesting. Maybe one of them will have a box office of over 100 million!" Wang Zhongjun also flattered Feng Yu.
Heavenly King Liu glanced at Ning Hao, and Ning Hao nodded vigorously. "Good script. I want to do it!"
Heavenly King Liu couldn't help but take the script. Unfortunately, it was written in simplified Chinese, so he couldn't understand most of it. He had to guess what it meant.
Xu Zheng had also finished reading the nightclub script. The scene was basically set in a 24-hour convenience store. If he was the main character, the production cost would definitely not exceed 3 million.
Although it didn't seem to have as much baggage as Crazy Stone, it was still quite a lot. If it was advertised properly, it should be able to have a box office of tens of millions, right?
As for the other script, although he hadn't read it yet, he was already full of confidence after reading the script for Nightclub.
He was also busy filming a movie, Love Call Transfer, to test the waters for next year's Chinese New Year slot.
There was no such thing as a Chinese New Year slot before, but ever since Crazy Stone became popular on May 1st, many people started to pay attention to this kind of movie schedule during the long holidays.
Moreover, this movie was not only suitable for teenagers, but also for people in their thirties and forties. Therefore, he wanted to put it on the Chinese New Year slot, hoping that the whole family could go to the cinema.
"Mr. Feng, will I be in charge of these two scripts?" Xu Zheng asked seriously.
"I heard that you studied directing and even won the Magnolia Award for a drama before. Your acting skills are superb. Both of these are low-budget productions. To be honest, even if you don't do well, you won't lose much money. The box office of the movie, the movie channel, and the CD, the company won't lose money. But if we want to control the cost, your salary can't be too high. "
With Xu Zheng's current net worth, his salary for a movie was close to a million. Including the salaries of the other actors, his salary alone might be more than three million.
"It's okay. I can lower my salary. I like this script a lot. Although I haven't read the other one, I believe it's not bad. Is the Chinese Brothers or Mr. Feng investing in this movie? "
"Hahaha, of course it's the Chinese Brothers. It's more convenient for them to invest and distribute. I don't know the details."
He was not being humble. Feng Yu really didn't know. He wasn't interested in the details either. He would just leave it to the professionals.
Even if this movie could have a box office of one billion, Feng Yu didn't need to invest in it himself. How much could he earn with a box office of one billion? If the stock market rose by one percent, Feng Yu would earn several times that amount!
Seeing their attitude, Lau Tianwang hesitated for a while and said, "Mr. Feng, is there a suitable role for me? I can also lower my salary. "
Feng Yu's movies were all low-budget movies. Even 'Crazy Racer' didn't cost more than ten million. This kind of movie was not suitable to hire A-list actors. Otherwise, even with the current market, the salary of two actors would be almost ten million. It would greatly increase the production cost.
"Erm, not at the moment. If there's a good story, I'll definitely save it for you. But with your reputation, you will still get a lot of offers, right? "
Lau Tianwang knew he was being greedy, so he raised his glass and said, "May the box office of 'Crazy Rock' exceed eighty million. May everyone's movies do well!"
