Chapter 216 Company Development

Xiaobai's speech only lasted half an hour, but it had a great impact on the audience!

He has released more than a dozen movies!

The ancient costume series "Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance", "The Martial Arts Prize Su Qi'er", "The Dead Official"

Mythological series "Jigong", "Mermaid", "God of Cooking"...

Two plots of "The Deer and the Cauldron",

Two plots of "A Chinese Odyssey": "Journey to the West to Suppress the Demons", "Journey to the West to Suppress the Demons"…

Kung Fu Series: "Shaolin Football", "Kung Fu"

Of course there is "The King of Comedy"...

This is not a five-year plan, it is simply announcing all the film career!

"Some of these scripts are just a rough idea, and some have been formed. I will shoot the already formed story first and meet you first. OK, what do you want to ask?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a reporter immediately raised his hand: "Director Bai Xiaofei, hello, I would like to ask you to announce so many movie plans at once, are they all directed by you?"

"Of course, you will direct and act, produce and sell yourself, and don't lick the capital!"

Xiaobai's answer was very easy.

It means that all the movies he mentioned will not be coerced by capital.

There are no more than five capitals in the circle to brag about this!

“…Are you going to go public?”

"If I don't go public, the reason why I left Yongsheng was that I didn't want to go public. There were too many things to consider for listed companies. Although I was filming commercial films, I wanted to be a purer filmmaker, the kind of director who could be the leader and direct the crew and choose actors!"

After hearing this, Zhong Lifang's face changed a little...

"So how long do you plan to make all these movies?"

"…It depends on the situation. Anyway, I shoot every year. I will be twenty-six years old. Anyway, I will definitely finish these movies before I get thirty-five. Otherwise, I will be able to play some roles even if I get older!"

The next question is about the film list. Some ask how to interpret "Journey to the West", while others ask what the "King of Comedy" means, and they want to film Chaplin? Some ask whether Bai Xiaofei will publicly cast the role...

Xiaobai explained one by one.

"…I have always wanted to film the theme of "Journey to the West", but I have never had a very complete idea. I only have a rough idea. I should try it out if I first shoot one or two movies. If the market feedback is good, then I will continue to develop it. As for "The King of Comedy", it is actually a semi-autobiographical story that I have written half of the script. At present, I will start the filming after I finish the script..."

"The Deer and the Cauldron" is actually the most powerful story of Jin Yong's martial arts, and it is very suitable to be made into a movie. At present, we have negotiated with Mr. Jin Yong that "The Deer and the Cauldron" should be launched after "The Deer and the Cauldron"!"

"As for the role, I should have some newcomers to star in..."

I roughly answered the media's questions and handed over the next time to Zhong Lifang. The latter released the "Xiao" plan and the "Xin" plan, which were all around Sun Xiaoxiao and Li Kaixin. As for Tang Xiaoyu, she is already a Mesozoic who has acting skills and traffic...

...

In fact, "The Deadly Deadly" and "Jigong" are not strictly considered to be Stephen Chow's work, especially the former. The script idea for "The Deadly Deadly Deadly" is Fa Ge and Zhou Runfa.

After Zhou Runfa had this plan, he went to see Director Du Qifeng. Director Du felt that the proposal was very good and could be implemented, so he agreed and asked Shao Liqiong to write the script!

Since the project was proposed by Brother Fa, and with Brother Fa's popularity at that time, it would be very appropriate for him to be the starring actor. However, because Brother Fa signed a contract with a company called "Golden Princess", at that time, he could not go out to take on the role, Brother Fa regretted not to play the protagonist.

Who is Shao Liqiong?

"He comes from the World", the screenwriter of "The Twin Clan", and the only two dramas that Stephen Chow filmed on TVB.

Therefore, he recommended Stephen Chow, and Du Qifeng also felt that Stephen Chow had a strong box office appeal at that time, so he asked him to act in "The Deadly Officer"...

The first time Du Qifeng and Stephen Chow met in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". At that time, Stephen Chow, who was a supporting actor, asked Du Qifeng, who was the executive director, whether he could stop him and "dead", but was ignored by Du Qifeng.

During the "Death Dead", Stephen Chow basically did not perform too much in his personal performance, so the whole movie didn't look so good, but thankfully, it was this performance style that made his performance in the movie no longer be as unscrupulous as before, but more restrained, so he won the second trophy in his life - the Best Actor of the Asia Pacific Film Festival!

Later, when "Jigong" was filming, Director Du and Stephen Chow had a very unhappy fight!

Director Du accused the media: "He seems to have become a different person. He does not participate in the discussion of creation before shooting, but he always needs to change things during shooting, so the shooting is particularly difficult to advance."

Although "Jigong" is more exciting, the entire storyline explores reincarnation and Buddhist principles. Such a serious plot is coupled with Stephen Chow's crazy performance, so the whole story seems very inconsistent...

The box office failure, and the two parted ways!

Stephen Chow also became accused of being "difficult" and had been scolded for decades...

Of course, there is no Stephen Chow in this time and space, so naturally there is no "The Dead Official" and "Jigong"...

...

In the afternoon, when the movie plan was over, Xiaobai was about to drive home to change his clothes, and when he got in the car, he received a call from Zhong Lifang.

The three of them made an appointment at a cafe near the company, and the third one was Chen Baolian!

I must talk about why Zhong Lifang is willing to join Bai Xiaofei Studio. She likes the feeling of growth from childhood to adulthood. She is optimistic about the development prospects of Bai Xiaofei Studio. She feels that she can make this studio bigger!

The so-called bigger means going public...

Moreover, when Chen Baolian asked her to come out, she said it very clearly that the company's future plans will be left to her!

She has a complete plan, that is, to raise funds, apply for IPO, then go public, or simply acquire a listed company and go public through a backdoor listing. Anyway, there are so many film and television companies listed now, and their operations are bleak, and there are many on the verge of bankruptcy...

However, now Bai Xiaofei publicly declares that the company will never go public, which is different from the plan that Zhong Lifang had set before!

Therefore, some words must be explained in person.

"Xiaobai, can you tell me the original intention of establishing the studio?"

"I just want to get out of Yongsheng and avoid taxes!"

Most celebrities create their own personal studios to legally avoid taxes. Of course, do they claim to be the purpose of developing their own teams?

With a company business license, the tax paid by the legal representative of the company is different from that of the private individuals.

For example, if you have an income of 35 million yuan, paying individuals is personal income tax, but if the company accounts, it is business tax, and the profits after deduction are paid only!

This deduction can do a lot of work!

There are also many studios or companies under the name of celebrities who are often in other places. When choosing a place of registration, the only condition they usually consider is the local tax preferential policies.

In order to attract companies to enter, some places will propose a series of tax incentives and exemptions. Many celebrities and their behind-the-scenes operating teams are targeting this opportunity to avoid taxes.

Another clever one is the equity method, which is to take equity in listed companies and increase the profits of listed companies by stardom. When the stock price is high, it will sell and cut the leeks...

The key is that this is legal, no problems can be found!

If you even have to escape this tax, it would be too unkind...

If the Yin-Yang contract is different, that is illegal!

"Don't you want to make the company bigger?"

"…It's already very big. What's the difference between us now and ordinary film and television production companies?"

This is true. Bai Xiaofei's studio has various departments of film and television production, investment, artist brokerage, and publicity and distribution team. It has more than 400 mediocre employees, which is equivalent to a medium-sized film and television company.
