Chapter 121 I have a story, do you have wine?

Among these resumes and projects, Lin Yicheng took out two, thought about it, and took the third one.

Lin Yicheng tapped his fingers on the table and fell into deep thought.

Let’s talk about the third one first. It is quite special. It is neither a resume nor a script project, but a letter.

It’s not quite appropriate to call it a letter, as it sounds a bit like an invitation letter to solicit investment.

This document of unclear nature was sent by a person who was already quite famous at that time and became even more famous in later generations - Yu Zheng.

As mentioned before, there are currently two most famous producers in the film and television industry, one with a white hat and the other with a big beard.

But compared to Yu Zhenglai who came later, these two are still far behind.

Although Yu Zheng has a bad reputation and is constantly involved in various scandals, he still has strength and is very strong.

Look at the TV series he wrote and produced, such as "Rouge Snow", "Palace" series, "Beauty's Rival in Palace", "Legend of Lu Zhen", "Song in the Clouds", "Story of Yanxi Palace"...

Which one is not famous and very popular?
Especially those 85 flowers, their successful rise is really inseparable from Yu Zheng’s promotion and support. It is not an exaggeration for these people to call him "godfather" or "godmother".

Let me put it this way, if you haven’t acted in Yu Zheng’s drama, you’d be embarrassed to say that you are a popular 85 flower.

So what is the purpose of Yu Zheng’s invitation letter?

In short, collaboration.

……

Currently, Yu Zheng has not joined Huanrui yet and only has his own studio under his name. He lacks funds, strength, channels, and connections.

Yu Zheng wants to cooperate with Lin Yicheng. The general meaning is, I have a story, do you have wine?
No, it’s because I have the project and you have the money. Let’s join forces to make it bigger and stronger and create greater glory!

Lin Yicheng highly recognized Yu Zheng's ability, but he was not sure about his character...

Although Lin Yicheng's own bottom line is not high and he doesn't take this too seriously, there must be an exception for everything, and Yu Zheng happens to be one of them.

He fell out with his mentor Li Huimin, who brought him into the industry, with his partner Huanrui, with his peer Tangren, with his peer Jiaxing Tianxia, ​​and with his own artists...

Hiss~ It seems like Yu Zheng is either in a state of disgrace or on the way to a disgrace.

Hey, why does this move resemble that of a certain little black fat guy?
cough cough.

In addition, his plagiarism scandals were confirmed, the courts sentenced him, and he was named by the official media...

Lin Yicheng thought about it again and again and decided to give up.

Although he was envious of the benefits this could bring, he also had to consider the consequences of cooperating with this person.

It would be strange if two people with strong personalities and who are unwilling to be inferior to others get together without conflicts.

Not to mention, the bottom line of both of them is not high, and it will probably be a mess by then.

Lin Yicheng is currently developing well and his superiors are optimistic about him. There is really no need for him to get together with people who are full of negative news.

After getting into trouble, it is very likely that Lin Yicheng's own image and popularity will be affected, and in the end it will not be worth it.

Then again, although Lin Yicheng was not afraid of falling out with Yu Zheng, he was afraid of metaphysics.

You see, no matter Huanrui, Jiaxing or Tangren, have they all gone downhill after falling out with Yu Zheng?

It was as if all the luck had been taken away.

If this isn’t metaphysics, then what is it?
Lin Yicheng even suspected that during those years in Hong Kong, Yu Zheng had learned some Southeast Asian magic, such as black magic?

No, I can’t think about it anymore. Lin Yicheng quickly gave up the idea and threw the information into the trash can.

Although he is a time traveler, he is still a little afraid of this kind of son of the plane.

No matter how powerful Wang Mang was back then, wasn't he still defeated by the great magician?

It is better to believe it than not to believe it. He really doesn't want to offend this person and can't afford to offend him. He is absolutely poisonous, extremely poisonous!

……

The remaining two submissions were relatively normal. The people who submitted them were all famous in later generations, and one of them was even well-known. Yang Qing wrote a movie script and submitted it in February this year.

Lin Yicheng only took a quick glance and recognized it. It was the comedy movie "Night Club" starring Xu Guangtou, Saozi Lu, and Qiao Renliang.

Lin Yicheng was deeply impressed by this drama, and the scene with Wang Xun was a classic.

The shooting location of "Nightclub" was very simple, it was a convenience store. In the end, it made a lot of money with a small investment, with a cost of 250 million, and finally earned 1100 million at the box office.

The investment-to-box office ratio is nearly 5 times, which is quite rare in the film industry in recent years.

Since it was delivered to his door, Lin Yicheng would not miss it. He even thought that the box office of this movie could be higher than in his previous life after his operation.

Not to mention the common things like scheduling, promotion, and distribution, just changing the name can add tens of millions of box office revenue.

Just change it to "Crazy Nightclub" as a sister piece to "Crazy Stone".

……

In the past life, when "Crazy Stone" came out, all kinds of scammers came out.

As long as they can find one or two people among Liu Hua, Guo Tao, Huang Bo and Yue Xiaojun to participate in the performance, they can dare to promote it as the original cast of "Crazy Stone".

It would be easier if these people didn't appear in the show.

Some comedies that came out of nowhere label themselves as "another hilarious comedy after Crazy Stone" or "a work that is not inferior to Crazy Stone"...

Some even added the word "crazy" to the title and said it was the sequel to "Crazy Stone"...

Relying on these gimmicks, these movies have deceived a group of audiences who are unaware of the truth.

There's nothing you can do about them. "Crazy" is not your patent, anyone can use it!
……

In this life, Lin Yicheng inevitably encountered this situation, and even more often.

After all, "Crazy Stone" grossed more than 2 million yuan two years ago, which is the box office ceiling for domestic comedy films.

You’d be a fool not to take advantage of this popularity.

Lin Yicheng also couldn't do anything about them. You didn't know where these people and these companies came from. Once the movie was released, the people and the companies disappeared.

Don’t they want to share the box office revenue?

Haha, they already negotiated with the theater chain and bought it out directly!

The money has been received even before the movie was released.

The theater chain also did not lose money, as it only paid a small price to get a blockbuster movie, so it basically did not make a loss.

If any of the films gets lucky and becomes a big hit, they will earn even more and won’t have to share any profits with the producers at all!
The contract has been signed in black and white, but you have run away and the company has been deregistered. What accounts should be divided?

Some even don’t go to the cinemas at all. They work with pirates, or maybe some of them are pirates themselves, and distribute the discs directly.

The workmanship is rough, it is sold in a cardboard package, the price is low, and the profit is small but the sales volume is quick.

Even the authorities can’t control this kind of chaos, let alone Lin Yicheng?

……

The deliverer of another piece of information was none other than the famous chief of the Novice Village in the original time and space, a time traveler who keeps changing but remains unchanged, Ning Hao!
If we were to say who in the circle was most influenced by Lin Yicheng, Ning Hao would definitely be among the top three.

In this life, Haozi is really miserable.

He should have become famous overnight last year, but because he was fleeced by Lin Yicheng and lost "Crazy Stone", he is still a small figure now.

Although he has works and has won some awards, such as "Incense" and "Green Grassland", he is basically not famous either inside or outside the circle.

Looking at the information in his hand, Lin Yicheng felt mixed emotions for a moment, but not much.

Perhaps, we can help the rat out and make his life better while creating some profits for Galaxy Film and Television Company.

Well, this was the only tenderness and kindness that Lin Yicheng showed to the chief of the Novice Village.
