"What plan?"
Yue Wen Looking at his treasure-offering expression, I felt a little worried for no reason. It didn't feel like it was a good thing.
"Instead of spending millions to buy talisman seals in vain, why don't we sign another contract." Director Chang introduced, "If you invest 8 million in my next movie, I will refine the talisman seal scripts for you for free. In the next year, I will definitely provide you with no less than One hundred talisman seals!" "And if there is profit after the subsequent movie is released, I will definitely share it with you in proportion, and it will never be a cent less than a normal investor." Yue Wen After hearing his condition, he thought to himself, is there such a good thing?
Chang Yunguan just quoted the market price of talisman seals. Yue Wen also inquired about it before coming here and knew that he was not lying to her.
If you want to hire a senior Talisman Master from outside to come in and get you hundreds or even thousands of corpse-repelling talismans, the starting fee for replicating them will be hundreds of thousands. Things like talismans and seals are drawn purely by hand, and there is no machine assembly line, so there is no situation where you can get cheaper by paying more. Instead, you have Talisman Master draw a talisman for you over and over again. The more times they draw a talisman, the more fees will be charged.
If we want to meet the annual consumption of Immortal Dew Valley, the actual cost will only be higher than the price of 8 million.
And now the contract he has provided to himself not only gives him talisman seals, but also counts as investment. If there is any subsequent share, it is basically equivalent to making money in vain. But...
Is there such a thing as losing the pie for no reason?
Chang Yunguan was so easy to talk to, but he wondered if there might be a trap here, and glanced at the other party suspiciously, "Director Chang, I am an outsider, but I have always heard that there are a lot of tricks in your film industry."
"Hi." Chang Yunguan smiled bitterly, "Mr. Yue, I am absolutely devoted to you. My biggest problem now is that I can't get investment. I have no money to start filming a movie that I have been planning for many years!"
"Because my resume in this industry is average, investors are hesitant. But if I can get the first amount of money, they will feel that someone already trusts me, and it will be easier for these investors to invest money. That's why I want you to give me funds in the form of investment." "Is that so?" Yue Wen said, "Director Chang really loves art, but a mature Talisman Master like you shouldn't be short of money, right? Especially in a place like Jiang City where Talisman Master is scarce, it shouldn't be difficult to earn several million in filming expenses by receiving a few orders, right?"
"Xiaoyue, you don't understand." Chang Yunguan looked up to the sky and sighed, "I only take orders for making talismans when I am really short of money for filming. What I feel when making movies is happiness and passion. Making talismans brings me only pain."
"Has it reached this level..." Yue Wen smiled bitterly.
"I used to study the Tao of Talisman like other brothers, and everyone was involved in life and death, but then I discovered, what is the meaning of all this? Making talismans is too rigid. Once the Tao pattern is fixed, it will be the same, but movies are different." Chang Yunguan Youyou said, "The talisman is just a tool, and movies are art! Art is my lifelong pursuit."
Yue Wen said to her heart River City This place is really famous for its artists.
A few days ago, I killed an evil cultivator who said "art is root carving", and here comes Talisman Master who "movies are art".
"So I only accept a limited number of orders, like yours, which is enough to solve my urgent needs. If there are more, I will be annoyed." Chang Yunguan said, "Of course, as long as you agree to my plan, I will do my best to complete these talismans and seals for you. I am engaged in art, you can trust my professional ethics."
It's just you who are engaged in art that can't be said to have integrity...Yue Wen silently slandered.
However, he still agreed to Chang Yunguan's proposal, "I can accept the price of eight million. I can pay you after signing the contract. Whether it is the fee for Fu Zhuan or the investment, in short, it will definitely be given to you, Director Chang."
The firm's savings were not enough to pay so much. The money must have come from the Flame Ghost Hall's account, and he didn't feel bad at all.
"Thank you so much!" Chang Yunguan shook Yue Wen's hand, and then immediately said, "Since you are my first investor, let me tell you about my drama, and I will ensure that you achieve a double harvest of word-of-mouth and box office."
As he spoke, he took out a thick script, with a line of big characters written on the cover - "Sad as a Rainy Night with Blooming Chrysanthemums". Yue Wen looked at the title, his eyelids twitching, "Director Chang, the type of this play is..."
"Literary film." Chang Yunguan looked at his script and said with a happy smile on his face, "I am going to use this film to compete for the Golden Eagle Award. I now have a great idea, and I plan to shoot the entire film in one shot! Isn't it very bold?" "Too bold." Yue Wen smiled awkwardly, "Straight to the end?"
"Of course you have to go to the end!" Director Chang said seriously, "I won't tell you more about the techniques. You just need to know. The main thing is to listen to the plot..." Yue Wen probably understood in his heart that the eight million he had was actually the money to buy the talisman and seal script.
Anyone who can give himself more than 100 yuan at the box office must be considered Director Chang and he has many friends.
"In this film, I added a subversive design. Let me tell you, you will never expect it. The heroine of this film is a man! Then you must be curious at this time, since she is a man, why is she called the heroine? Because she does not identify with her original gender. In her perception, her gender is a big one who came back from hell..."
"It's so artistic." Yue Wen felt like there was something mixed with his words that was attacking his brain. "Director Chang, I remembered that I still have soup cooking on the stove. I'm going back first."
"Hey, I haven't mentioned the male protagonist yet. The male protagonist is actually more subversive. You would never expect that the male protagonist is a shower head."
When I returned to the office, it was already dark.
Fortunately, he finished a lot of things today, and Yue Wen could temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. But as soon as he entered the door, he found that there might still be some things to do. Zhao Xing'er, Qi Dian, and Big White were all sitting upright. On the chair. Two strangers were sitting on the small sofa opposite. One was a young woman wearing a gray professional hip-hugging suit, with short ear-length hair, fair skin, and clear eyes. She looked very capable and refined at first glance. The other was a male staff member wearing a black mask and carrying a camera.
"Boss, you came back just in time." Xing'er smiled, "This is a reporter from the newspaper, here to see you."
"Hello, Mr. Yue." The young woman stood up and stretched out a hand, "I am the reporter of <Jiangcheng Cultivation News>, Lin Wanyue." "Hello." Yue Wen shook hands with her.
"Our newspaper is currently doing a City Hero Battle forward-looking interview. We plan to interview several of the most competitive new stars in the spiritual world in this selection and spread your deeds to the River City people." Lin Wanyue said, "I don't know if you have time., will you cooperate with us?" Yue Wen did still have things to do, but he was a big-name newspaper, so he still gave him some respect, "I'm sorry, I'm really busy today. If you have any important questions, I can answer them briefly first, and then let my assistant make supplements."
<Jiangcheng Cultivation News> is the largest media in the local cultivator circle. They also have their own column on the Cultivation Chat forum. They often post interviews with famous great power or young geniuses, and they have a great influence on Jiang City.
It is completely incomparable to those like <Jiangcheng North Daily>.
This preview column of City Hero Battle is also a fixed program every four years, and Yue Wen has seen it before. Before this, this column was usually occupied by disciples of Immortal Gate, and it might take decades for the name of a casual cultivator to appear.
Yue Wen guessed that Fox Demon Amusement Park's affairs have become more popular recently, and he won the final secret realm. Although not many people saw the game process, many people were paying attention to the result, so Jiangcheng Cultivation News took advantage of it and put himself among the interviewers.
"No problem." Lin Wanyue looked very professional. When he heard that he was short on time to interview the guests, he immediately straightened his posture and said, "I will briefly interview a few questions and let your assistant supplement the rest. We are also very skilled in this."
"Okay." Yue Wen nodded.
Then I saw the staff turned on the camera, Lin Wanyue put up a posture and asked, "Mr. Yue, you have become quite famous in Jiang City recently. Many viewers who have watched your live broadcast or competitions affectionately call you "Ruthless Brother', saying that you are particularly keen on killing Demonic Evils. In this regard, can you share with us the reason why you hate evil so much?"
"What other reason could there be for killing evil spirits? Of course it's because of the sense of justice!" Yue Wen replied immediately.
Lin Wanyue asked again, "So, as a casual cultivator, despite the lack of background and resources, you have grown as fast as or even exceeded the disciples of Immortal Gate. To what aspects do you think this should be attributed?
"Of course this is due to my personal efforts." Yue Wen replied seriously.
"What are your personal expectations for this City Hero Battle?" Lin Wanyue asked again, "Do you have any expectations for the results?" "Oh." Yue Wen smiled and said slightly modestly, "I just hope that I can use all my abilities. If you have too much power, you don't want to worry about it." Lin Wanyue saw that he was in a hurry and said, "Then I will simply ask these three questions. Our report is mainly about your deeds. We can just ask your two employees about these. We also had a good chat before you came back."
"That's good." Yue Wen smiled and turned to look at Xing'er and Qi Dian, "You can help me fill in the rest."
"It's all on us." Zhao Xing'er vowed.
After expressing a little apology, he returned to his cabin upstairs. He really had a lot to do today. Spiritual Sense sank and immediately entered Black Gold Hall.
"Big Dragon, I need your help!"
