Chapter 4 Talking over?
The next morning, coffee shop.
Same seats, same scene.
Li Chengyou sat opposite Xu Xian, took a sip of coffee, and listened to Xu Xian's talk opposite him with a half-smile.
When Xu Xian finished, Li Chengyou put down his coffee and said with a calm smile: "I refuse."
"Um?"
Xu Xian frowned slightly and stared at Li Chengyou.
Li Chengyou smiled lightly and said: "You should know very well that this is my movie. If we can't reach a consensus on this, I think there is no need to continue discussions in the future."
Li Chengyou only thought it was funny at the moment.
He couldn't even figure out what Xu Xian was thinking. Was he really smart or just pretending to be smart?
Xu Xian actually proposed that she should arrange the assistant director, that the crew's account details should be reported to her regularly, that every expenditure must be confirmed by her before settlement, and other miscellaneous requests, which Li Chengyou only found funny.
.He is looking for investors, not the Supreme Emperor. If he agrees to all these requests from Xu Xian, then after the crew is formed, will it be his or Xu Xian's?
Shaking his head slightly, Li Chengyou smiled again: "If you don't have any trust in me, even if we reluctantly cooperate, we will have constant conflicts in the future. Rather than doing this, I think it's better to stop here."
Standing up, Li Chengyou stretched out his right hand and said with a smile: "Thank you for your interest in my script. I hope we have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future."
Xu Xian's face was slightly stunned. He looked at Li Chengyou's right hand and frowned slightly. He said, "If you have any objections to my proposal, we can continue to negotiate. We are all adults. There is no need to act like children and not listen."
Different views."
Li Chengyou smiled dumbly, looked at Xu Xian, nodded for a moment: "Before we continue to discuss, I want to make it clear. This is my movie. After the crew is formed, I will be the core of the crew. This is what we cooperate with
Premise. If we can't reach a consensus on this point, then there is no need for us to continue the discussion." After a pause, he smiled again, "As the old saying goes, there are no two days in the sky and no two masters in the people. If a crew member
With two voices, do you think the movie can still be shot normally?"
Shaking his head, Li Chengyou smiled again: "Besides, there is one thing you probably haven't figured out yet. Putting aside everything else, your 50 million investment only accounts for 40% of the total investment. Even in terms of investment ratio,
Say, you don’t have the absolute right to speak. So except for a few of your requests, I can’t accept most of them.”
The reason why Li Chengyou approached Xu Xian to invest was of course that he wanted nothing to do with it, and he also had some other purposes. But even so, he had no intention of giving up the initiative. If he really had this idea, why would he bother to approach Xu Xian?
Xian Investment, if you look for any production company, it will be more mature than Seohyun.
At least if he finds a production company, he only needs to concentrate on filming, and the production company can be responsible for other preparations, publicity and marketing for the crew.
And what can Xu Xian provide?
Apart from money, there is basically no use for it.
That's why.
Seohyun's behavior of thinking that he would take the initiative by investing money made Li Seungwoo funny.
Is this girl really that silly and sweet? When an idol is praised so much by others, she doesn’t really think that God is the boss and she is the second child, right?
Do you have to be so mentally retarded?
Hit the street!
Opposite him, Xu Xian looked at Li Chengyou with a frown, especially the mockery hidden in Li Chengyou's half-smiling eyes. He took a deep breath, suppressed his secret anger, and said as calmly as possible: "As an investor, I hope my funds
I think it's understandable that it can be used reasonably, right?" Li Chengyou nodded, and Xu Xian said, "Then I will put forward my ideas before cooperation. You can have different opinions, but I think I have this right."
Li Chengyou nodded again, then smiled softly and sat down again.
Li Chengyou could tell from Xu Xian's words. Xu Xian seemed to be arguing, but in fact he had already made concessions. If Xu Xian didn't intend to give in, he wouldn't have explained so much to him.
.
From this point of view, this girl is not too mentally retarded.
In fact, the reason why Lee Seung-woo acted so decisively was not because he really planned to stop cooperating with Seohyun. He just wanted to show his attitude and let Seohyun know his bottom line. After all, compared to cooperating with a production company, Lee Seung-woo
I still prefer Seohyun more. The production company will not be as easy to fool as Seo Hyun, nor will they be as easy to talk to as Seo Hyun.
And Xu Xian?
Naturally, Seohyun is not as stupid as Lee Seungwoo thinks.
Although she doesn't know much about the film industry, she still knows some basic common sense.
In South Korea, TV dramas are under the responsibility of the screenwriter, while movies are under the responsibility of the director. In a film crew, the director is the core of the entire crew and the leader who coordinates everything.
The reason why Seohyun made so many seemingly harsh demands was not because he really thought that Lee Seungwoo would agree, nor because he really wanted to dominate the entire crew.
To put it bluntly, Xu Xian's plan was just to ask for a high price and pay back the money.
Li Chengyou's decisive refusal was to show Xu Xian his bottom line, and Xu Xian made so many strict demands just to let Li Chengyou understand that she was not easy to fool and to show her attitude. Just like what she said to Li Chengyou before
, as an investor, she hopes that her funds can be used reasonably and not be abused at will by Li Chengyou for some random reasons.
so.
The more demanding her requirements are, the more it shows that she is serious about her investment, lest Li Chengyou think that she is easy to cheat and misuse her funds.
All in all, all in all, the two people have their own purposes, and they are just to express their attitudes.
After determining their respective attitudes, it will be easier to talk next.
Xu Xian said that she would not get involved in the crew, but she needed to know every step of the crew's formation and have detailed plans for the use of every fund. Naturally, Li Chengyou didn't care about these. He cared more about taking control of the crew.
, is to control the entire crew. As for the money, Li Chengyou is not a real liar. He just wants to defraud a small amount of money and just perfunctory, so naturally he doesn't care to be honest with Xu Xian in these insignificant places.
Moreover.
For a layman like Xu Xian, even if he told Xu Xian all the details, what would Xu Xian be able to discern?
Li Chengyou is just too lazy to do these little tricks.
All he needs now is initial capital. As long as the movie can be released and be a big success, he can accumulate more filming funds. There is no need to cheat in the initial stage and make a small gain.
so.
Even if he knew Xu Xian's secret plan, Li Chengyou would only find it funny.
