216 [Recruiting McDonald's]

Seeing that Xia Tian had agreed to his conditions, McDonald showed a surprised expression instead.

There were many financial supporters who wanted to cooperate with him before, but after hearing these three conditions, they all gave up. No financial supporter's money was not blown by the strong wind, so it was impossible to just hand it over to one person like this, but he didn't even have the right to ask about it.

In fact, after all, Madon McDonald's brand is not very famous. Although he has made six movies, there are almost no box office hits.

"Beautiful Girl", "Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier", and "Cannot Stop Love" have the highest box office, but only a whopping 10 million Hong Kong dollars. The box office of "Detective Bald Girl" is even only more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is so much that it cannot even recover the cost. Such a director who has unstable performance, the funder of course has doubts when investing.

Moreover, the themes of the films Madon McDonald are relatively niche. "The Beautiful Girl" tells the story of a girl with social problems and hits the dark side of the society at the bottom of the society; "The Provincial and Hong Kong Flag Soldier" tells the story of a big circle robbery and murder in Hong Kong, bloody and violent; "The Ghost Out of the Cage" tells the story of a man being plagued by evil ghosts and finally asking a mage to exorcise ghosts and catch monsters, which is horror and thriller...

The most popular movies in Hong Kong have always been action movies and comedy movies. Overseas filmmakers come to Hong Kong to purchase movies and choose these two types of films, and the price is relatively high. Because the theme of Madon McDonald's films is too niche, basically no filmmaker is willing to introduce them. Even if they want to buy them, the price will be very low.

The local box office is no longer high, and overseas food ports are so difficult. The funder is not profitable, so he is naturally unwilling to invest in him.

Unexpectedly, when Xia Tian met for the first time, he readily agreed after hearing his three major conditions, which made McDonald's heart stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Mai, are you okay?" Xia Tian asked with a smile.

"It's okay." McDonald's wake up in shock, "What Mr. Xia said is true, did he really agree to my conditions?"

"Of course. Otherwise, do you think I'm idle? I'm here to play with you?" Xia Tian nodded with a smile, "When you finish filming this drama, we'll talk about cooperation. What do you think?"

"I think we can talk now." McDonald said anxiously.

He is not alone now, and his whole family is not hungry. There are also a group of brothers who follow him to have dinner. For example, Xiao Ruoyuan, a talented man known as the "Staff of Screenwriter", his own younger brother Madonja, and his favorite disciple Pan Yuanjie. He is too busy filming now, but he can give them the opportunity to do it.

"Okay, go back and go to my company and let's talk slowly." Xia Tian saw him impatiently, and couldn't help but nodded with a smile, feeling that "all the heroes in the world are in my trap", which was so cool.

...

After attending the opening ceremony of "Extra-Judgement", he returned to the company in the summer.

The third round of bids has also been delivered.

"Jiahe 4.6 million"

"Shaw Brothers Four Million"

"New Art City 4.5 million"

...

"Darong Four million and one hundred thousand"

"Yongsheng 4.8 million"

"Debao 4.9 million"

...

"I didn't expect that Debao robbed the last place?" Xia Tian couldn't help but smile when he saw the result.

He then notified several film companies of the result phone number, and then called Mr. Chang from Taiwan.

"Mr. Chang, thank you for your strong support. I am so grateful." Xia Tian smiled.

He was really overjoyed that his "Mr. Zombie" could sell for a high price of 30 million Hong Kong dollars.

"Mr. Xia, don't be polite. Please help me, I will help you, everyone will benefit each other?" Mr. Chang said with a smile.

"What I'm talking about. I'm going to film a new drama recently called "Best Bad Friend". Directed by me and starring Liu Dehua and Zhao Yazhi, I'm very confident in the box office. I wonder if Mr. Chang is willing to invest?" Xia Tian smiled again.

"If it is starring Su Rongrong, it will definitely be a big shot." Mr. Chang smiled, "I will definitely invest in how much money it needs."

"Based on the average price of the three rounds of bids, it is HK$4.5 million." Xia Tian said.

"Okay, it's not expensive. I'll let Asheng give you the money." Mr. Chang nodded, "Mr. Xia, my money is not easy, you have to help me take care of it."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chang." Xia Tian smiled, "If you lose money, I will give you my own private subsidy."

"Then it's even more okay." Mr. Chang laughed when he heard this, "Then I'll ask you."

After putting down the phone, Xia Tian couldn't help but smile again, "I didn't expect that Zhao Yazhi is so famous in Taiwan. When she heard that she was the starring actor, she didn't even stutter, so she immediately agreed. No wonder she likes to develop in Taiwan so much."

After calling Taiwan, Xia Tian notified Wang Jing again and asked him to turn on the computer on a date.

Wang Jing had long been eager to do so. After receiving his instructions, he immediately went to Chegong Temple to ask for a visa, and made a reservation and officially started the computer after two days.

...

The next day, the report of Xia Tian interviewed reporters appeared in the newspaper.

Seeing that he adhered to the ethics of filmmakers and to satisfy the audience, he would rather shoot art films that were more popular than bad films than popular than popular, readers all expressed their appreciation.

When he saw him claiming that he would not cry and would refund the tickets, the audience couldn't help but be very interested in this movie "Extra-Judgement".

Originally, there was no big cast in this movie. The starring Huang Rihua, Lan Jiemu, and Ye Dexian were all considered TV stars, and they did not have their place in the film industry at all. There was no high investment, and the cost was only three to four million. There was no big publicity, and people didn't know that there was this drama in advance.

But now, seeing Xia Tian declare that "you don't cry, don't cry, don't cry," the audience's interest immediately came. What a tragic drama that made him dare to declare that "you don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't cry, don't you really get refunded? With all kinds of questions, people's interest in this "Extra-law Love" is getting stronger and stronger.

"Ah God, I want to thank you. The filming of this drama has started to start, and the momentum has started to be hyped up." Xiang Huasheng smiled proudly. As soon as the newspapers came out of the street today, their company's phone kept ringing.

Not only local media want to interview and find out the details of "Extra-law Fiction". Even overseas media are very interested. After all, the "refund system" has never been seen before. If you can really refund the ticket if you don't cry, it will set a world record.

"You don't have to be polite." Xia Tian smiled, "But no matter how good the publicity is, it's just a gimmick. If the movie is not good, everything will be over."

"That's right." Xiang Huasheng nodded, "I hope McDonald will take good photos for me, otherwise I will not be able to spare him if I lose money."

Xia Tian was in a state of great spirit. It seemed that no matter how gentle the lion in the cage looked, he would inadvertently reveal his sharp fangs. Xiang Huasheng had always been very kind, especially respectful to himself. However, the basis of all this is that he could bring benefits to him, otherwise he would probably be threatened by him.

"I think he won't do anything randomly," Xia Tian then smiled.

"I hope so. By the way, the money from the Taiwan Bamboo Alliance Gang was shipped yesterday. I'll send it to you in the future." Xiang Huasheng said again.

Taiwan’s Bamboo Alliance hopes to invest 10 million Hong Kong dollars in summer and ask him to help launder money. This is an agreement reached with the Bamboo Alliance when he went to Taiwan in summer.

"Okay, send it here." Xia Tian nodded.

Originally, he thought that the money was a burden, but after all, it was illegal income, and it would be a problem if it was involved. But now he hoped that the more he would be better. It would be better to have 100 million or 200 million dollars, so he could make a big profit.

"The square agreement!" Xia Tian thought to himself.

...

After hanging up the phone, Xia Tian began to consider a new film plan.

After meeting McDonald yesterday, he sent an invitation to cooperate.

Now it's time to consider what to shoot in the next drama.

"Hui Zhong is still filming "The King of Kings". Xiaoxian not only wants to film "The Emperor of Working", but also "Best Bad Friend". Only Sister Hong has no movies left, so it's time to get her a hit," Xia Tian thought.

"Is there any drama that Madon McDonald and Sister Hong collaborated with?" Xia Tian thought again.

Madon McDonald is a very outstanding filmmaker and has produced many classic movies, such as "The Lame", "The Hong Kong Flag Soldier", "The Young Master and the Lover", etc., which have left a rich page in Hong Kong's film history. If Cherie Chung can work with such a filmmaker, it will be of great benefit to her acting career.

"By the way, they seem to have worked together on "Moon, Star, Sun". This drama once won the Golden Horse Award for Best Movie, which is very classic." Xia Tian's eyes lit up and suddenly thought.

"Moon, Stars, and Sun" tells the life journey of three dancers. Starring Chung, Zheng Yuling and Zhang Manyu, among which Zheng Yuling also won the Taiwan Golden Horse Award for Best Actress Award for this film.

"If you make this movie now, I wonder if Zhang Manyu's acting skills can do it?" Xia Tian was a little worried again.

Zhang Manyu's acting skills are just average now, far less slight and charming than later generations. Back then, she began to learn about acting skills by taking on "Mong Kok Carmen" and after being tuned by the well-known director Wang Jiawei.

But Xia Tian believes that Madon McDonald should not have the ability to tune the actors with the King of Sunglasses. Because there are basically no stars who have won by acting skills. Even if Lu Liangwei, Zheng Yuling, Zhou Runfa and others have worked with him, their acting skills have not improved significantly.

Because after all, McDonald's film director is also a commercial film director, making money is his primary purpose. However, Wang Jiawei is determined to win awards when making movies. Whether the movie is sold or not is not his business. He has his own financial support to pay the bill, as long as he can win the award.
