Chapter 144: Six words can sum it up

(Please order!)

"Why don't you think about it again? There is a price for breaking the contract after all. You were not present. I am very grateful to Sister Yuanyuan for her support, but it really doesn't have to be like this."

Although he was really touched by Gao Yuanyuan's support, Jiang Xiao was not willing to let the former break the contract and cause losses.

So after hesitating, he finally said this.

"You...I told you it has nothing to do with you. Didn't you say that the attitude of the crew is vague and unclear? So the director prefers to support Japanese people. What's the point of treating such a crew? There are certain bottom lines that cannot be lost."

Gao Yuanyuan raised her fist and really wanted to hit someone twice. Is she the kind of person who has to compromise everything for a movie?

"Okay, I'm being petty. Let's go. It's almost noon. I'll treat Sister Yuanyuan to dinner to make up for my mistake."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao suddenly put aside his worries. At worst, he would give Da Meiyuan another movie in the future.

Anyway, he has never even heard of "Talent and Beauty", so whether he accepts it or not probably won't affect it at all.

He even suddenly came up with an idea and was ready to turn his passivity into an initiative.

For example, if you start a movie project by yourself, you don’t have to use the advantage of foresight to avoid it becoming expired later.

In the past, there was no opportunity to operate, but now, although it will be very difficult, it is not completely impossible.

He received 1.05 million in endorsement fees for Yiliyou Yoghurt and 245,000 for "Curiosity Killed the Cat." In addition to Pepsi's 2 million in endorsement fees, he could still get 1.4 million after deducting the share, adding up to 2.685 million.

Jiang Xiao also owns a house. The average house price in Beijing this year has risen to 14,000. Although the price of the community where he lives is not so high, it is still around 11,000, which is almost double the original purchase price.

Of course, he doesn't plan to sell it, but he can mortgage it and get a loan of more than 1 million yuan, which adds up to 3.7 million operating funds.

And Penguin stocks, uh...

Forget it, because Jiang Xiao, who had just taken a look not long ago, found that the stock price had dropped below the issue price of HK$3.7 in 2004. Even the price of HK$3 seemed unsustainable.

So you can't sell it for much money, and you can't even get your capital back.

If he hadn't known the future situation, he would have been so scared that he would have given up. In this short period of time, he would definitely not be able to expect returns or anything like that.

Speaking of which, now is the best time to buy. If what happened today had not happened, he would probably have continued to buy Penguin stocks with the money.

But after all, stocks are just a side matter, and you still have to focus on your main business.

All in all, if Jiang Xiao can collect 3.7 million in funds, he can talk to Huayi and try to fight for it. Putting aside whether he can succeed, there is no harm in giving it a try.

"That's pretty much it, let's go!"

Gao Yuanyuan, who naturally didn't know Jiang Xiao's inner thoughts, heard that someone wanted to invite him to dinner, so she nodded in response without any hesitation.

The indifference on the phone is ultimately no match for the sudden change of mind when seeing a real person. There is no way, feelings are really something that cannot be controlled by just wanting to.

…………

Half an hour later.

Jiang Xiao and his party found a place to eat without any further delay. Each person ordered two dishes, and soon a table was gathered to eat.

During the dinner, Jiang Xiao thought for a while and then said to Gao Yuanyuan, who was sitting next to him: "Sister Yuanyuan, actually I have a script in my hand. Since "Girls with Talent" cannot be filmed, I want to film this one.

How about you being the heroine in a movie?"

"Ah? Script, what script?"

Gao Yuanyuan, who was eating, didn't expect Jiang Xiao to suddenly mention this.

"It's also a love movie, about finding love again after falling out of love. It's called "Love Is Not Loved"."

Yes, that's right. After having the idea of ​​turning passivity into initiative, Jiang Xiao can be said to have immediately thought of "33 Days After Love," the most exemplary movie that is both small and broad.

""33 Days Out of Love"? Can you tell me about the plot?"

Although the topic came a bit unexpectedly, Gao Yuanyuan was still quite interested.

"It's about a wedding planner who discovered that her boyfriend had cheated on her with her best friend. After that, she experienced some things within 33 days. With the help of a male colleague, she finally found her true love."

"It's a bit like looking for him in the crowd for thousands of years, but suddenly looking back, he is there in the dim light."

Jiang Xiao, who condensed the entire movie into one sentence, quickly gave a brief summary to Gao Yuanyuan.

"Oh, it doesn't sound like there's anything surprising about it? Falling out of love and finding true love can be summed up in one, two...six words."

After listening to Jiang Xiao's words, Gao Yuanyuan clasped her fingers and summed it up in six words.

"..."

Well, regarding Da Meiyuan's summary, Jiang Xiao found that he was speechless. Isn't "33 Days of Love" a story about lost love and finding true love?

Of course, this movie is still about the process, and there are hundreds of ways to shoot the same routine.

If we really want to talk about it, it seems that Wang Xiaojian is one of the key factors that supported the movie "Love Is Not Blind", and he and Huang Xiaoxian had a chemical reaction.

In short, after thinking about it for a moment, he soon continued to tell Gao Yuanyuan about the plot of the movie in further detail.

About ten minutes later.

"Well, it does seem interesting. So what are you going to do? You can't just say "make a movie" and then make a movie, right?"

After hearing many interesting new words from Jiang Xiao's mouth, Gao Yuanyuan became more and more interested in the movie "Love Is Not Blind".

"I can raise some funds myself, and then I plan to go to Hua Yi to talk with me about the script. Anyway, the cost of this movie is not high. I estimate that it can be made for 5 million, and the possibility of a successful negotiation is still very high.

Big."

Without concealing anything, Jiang Xiao stopped his chopsticks and truthfully stated his plan.

At the end, he did not forget to add: "Whether it works or not, I hope Sister Yuanyuan you will give me half a month and not take on other dramas first."

"It's no problem. If I don't film "Girls with Talents", my schedule will be free. Don't be anxious. Take your time. It only takes a month."

"By the way, if you don't have enough funds, you can come to me. Although I don't have much money, it shouldn't be a problem to help with a little help."

Since Jiang Xiao is motivated, Gao Yuanyuan is also willing to support him behind the scenes.

"Thank you, Sister Yuanyuan."

It was obvious that the young lady really wanted to support him unconditionally. How could Jiang Xiao feel uneasy?

"Thank you. We are good friends. By the way, can you send me the detailed script of "33 Days of Love" later? I can take a look at it when I have time."

"Okay, I'll send it to you in two days."

Jiang Xiao responded with a smile and was about to continue saying something. Ji Xiang, who was sitting on the other side, seemed to have received a phone call and whispered a few words.

Soon someone handed him the phone and said softly: "It's Mr. Wang from Peking University Starlight, the representative of the mainland investors of "Men and Women", the one who was standing next to Ma Chucheng before."

Hearing these words, Jiang Xiao nodded, took the phone neatly, and said with a slight coldness: "Hello, Mr. Wang, I am Jiang Xiao."

"Hello Xiaojiang, I have communicated with Producer Tang and the matter has come to a rough conclusion. Now this is an answer to you."

Mr. Wang, who was on the other end of the phone, didn't particularly care about Jiang Xiao's tone and quickly got to the point.
