When Zhao Wanqing talked about business, her words were clear and logical. Her tone and demeanor were like that of a strong woman. It was not an exaggeration to describe her as a woman who was not inferior to a man.
Xiao Yunhai pondered for a while and said, "Alright. But I want to know who is the director of this TV series? "
"We're going to invite Teacher Chen Qingqing to direct it. He just filmed Kangxi the Great, so I think he should be familiar with filming a Qing Dynasty drama. However, we need to invite him. If we can invite Teacher Huang Peiqi to play Kangxi, then it will be even more perfect. "Zhao Wanqing said excitedly.
'Kangxi the Great' had finished broadcasting on CCTV not long ago, and the highest rating reached 19.7%, becoming Hua Xia's TV series in the past five years. Chen Qingqing, Huang Peiqi, and the others naturally gained a lot of benefits, and their value greatly increased.
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "If that's the case, then it's for the best. However, I hope to give Huang Bo a role. You also know his acting skills. It won't be a problem for him to play any of the princes. "
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said with a smile, "He's quite suitable to play the role of the Ninth Prince."
Xiao Yunhai happily said, "You're willing to give him such a role?"
Zhao Wanqing saw that Xiao Yunhai could be as calm as water in the face of huge benefits. He regarded money as floating clouds and didn't care about it at all.
But when she learned that her brother could play an important role, she was overjoyed and couldn't help but sigh, "Huang Bo is really lucky to have you as a friend. However, if you want this role, you still need the director's approval. This is the contract we've drafted. Take a look at it. If you don't have any opinion, we can sign it. "
Xiao Yunhai simply glanced at it, picked up the pen and signed his name.
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "This is a business worth tens of millions. Don't you want to take a look?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I believe you."
Zhao Wanqing's expression became sluggish, and a trace of a strange feeling arose in her heart for no reason. The three words "I believe you" sounded easy and casual, but under the current circumstances, it was worth an entire 40 million. It was truly worth a thousand gold.
Zhao Wanqing stared at Xiao Yunhai's smiling face for a while, then said to Xiao Yunhai solemnly, "Thank you for your trust. However, I hope you won't make this mistake in the future. The business world is like a battlefield. In the business world, there's no such thing as mercy. "
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "That depends on who you're facing. Zhao Wanqing's name was worth far more than 40 million yuan. Alright, Director Zhang, can we serve the dishes now? I'm starving. "
Zhang Guangqi, who had been silent at the side, smiled and said, "Alright, let's eat."
Because it was noon, no one drank. Xiao Yunhai showed his big appetite on the table again. A total of eight dishes, including Wu Wan Rice, were all in his stomach.
Zhang Guangqi, who was watching at the side, was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. This bookish guy could eat too much.
As for Zhao Wanqing, who had already experienced it, she had been pursing her lips and smiling. When she looked at Xiao Yunhai, there was something strange that even she herself didn't feel.
After lunch, Zhang Guangqi returned to the company with the contract, while Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing went to visit Chen Qingqing together with the script.
As a famous director in Hua Xia, Chen Qingqing's villa was very easy to find. The two soon arrived at his house and were warmly entertained by Chen Qingqing.
Zhao Wanqing took out the script of Step by Step from her bag and handed it to Chen Qingqing, saying, "Director Chen, this is a very good script. We hope that you can direct this movie."
Chen Qingqing put on his reading glasses and said with a smile, "I knew that there must be something you two little guys came here for. Well, let me see. "
Chen Qingqing opened the script. When he looked at the first page, he was stunned.
"How come it's in the city? Did I get the wrong one? "
Chen Qingqing looked at the two strangely and found that there was a smile hidden in their calmness. He didn't ask and continued to read.
When he saw that the protagonist had an accident and traveled to the end of the Kangxi Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty and became Martello Xi, Chen Qingqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
"He actually traveled from modern times to ancient times! This idea is really good! "
Half an hour later, Chen Qingqing roughly read through it and put the script on the table. He patted it gently and said, "Who is this screenwriter called Yunhai?"
Zhao Wanqing snorted and laughed. She pointed at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Director Chen, this author is far away, but right in front of you."
"It's really you?" Chen Qingqing looked at Xiao Yunhai in surprise, who was smiling bitterly, and sighed. "There are talents in every generation, and the new generation replaces the old. I thought that the person who could write such a script would have to be at least 30 years in the industry to have such a level. I didn't expect it to be written by a newcomer like you. You're really amazing. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Director Chen, you're flattering me. What do you think of this script? "
"Well, there's nothing to say." Chen Qingqing said, "Your script has a lot of commercial elements. The type of time travel has never appeared on the screen. Only you can think of it. The collision between modern and ancient times, the love and hatred between the heroine and the princes, and the nine dragons fighting for the throne from a girl's point of view can really give the audience a strong sense of immersion. Although this is just a legendary drama, some of the plots are very similar to history. It seems that you've really put in a lot of effort. "
Zhao Wanqing said happily, "Then, do you agree to direct it?"
Chen Qingqing nodded and said, "I naturally won't let go of such a good script. How much are you going to invest? "
"200 million."
"That's enough. Have you found the male and female leads? "
Zhao Wanqing said with some embarrassment, "Director Chen, what do you think about me playing Ruoxi and Xiao Yunhai playing Si Ye?"
Chen Qingqing pointed at the two of them and said, "I knew it must be you two. With your acting skills in Kangxi Emperor, there should be no problem. As for Yunhai, he can get the collective endorsement of Wu Zixu, Hong Tianchou, Wang Guoan, and Sun Yanjun, so there should be no problem. What about the other actors? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I have a classmate named Huang Bo. His acting skills are not below us, so I want to recommend him to play Jiu Wangye. As for the other roles, they haven't been confirmed yet. "
Chen Qingqing nodded and said, "Tell him to come over after I've prepared the crew. I want to see him. That's right, I hope you can invite Old Huang to play the role of Kangxi. Your fame isn't enough to support this drama, so you must find some big shots to help you. "
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "I'll leave the rest to you, Director Chen. If the funds are not enough, we can continue to invest. To be honest, my father's Hanhai Film and Television Company hasn't had any particularly good works in the past two years, so I'm counting on this drama to make a comeback. "
Chen Qingqing said with a smile, "It's your father's blessing to have such a capable daughter like you."
The three of them then talked about the preparation of the crew. Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing left the script and left.
