031 [Vampire Guili King]
"Then you injured my person, which made me no one available now. I have to give me an explanation." Buck Ya Bing didn't dare to force himself anymore, and his tone was relaxed a little.
"Brother Bing tells you the truth. The reason why I don't have time recently is because I'm busy writing books." Xia Tian said to Biaoya Bing, "I don't hide it from you. My novel is now being serialized in Ming Pao. Mr. Cha is also optimistic about me, and has booked my next novel, and the manuscript fee is as high as 300 yuan for a thousand words."
"Wow!" Chen Yixin opened his mouth wide in surprise.
"I am a person who is very neat in doing things, and the same is true for writing novels. I can tell you that I can write 3,000 words in an hour, and write 16 hours a day. You can calculate my income for one day by yourself." Xia Tian continued, "You want to invite me if you spend 30,000 yuan a month? I have to consider adding ten times."
"Boy, aren't you fooling me?! Do you know how to write novels? Even if you understand, can you really make so much money?" Buck Ya Bing looked at Xia Tian and said.
"If you don't believe it, please accompany me to see Mr. Cha now." Xia Tian smiled.
Seeing that he was so confident, Buck-Yang couldn't help but hesitate. He didn't dare to see Jin Yong. Although he was a literati and had no power to tie a chicken, he was a celebrity in society and had a wide connection. He could not afford to eat with just one finger. He Buck-Yang was still aware of how many taels of food he could eat.
"Since that's what you said, there's nothing to discuss?" Buck Ya Bing asked with a gloomy face.
If this matter is really undiscussed, even if he can't bear to let go of Xia Tian, the lucky boy, he will decide to destroy him with his own hands. "Since I can't get it, no one else can imagine it." This is what Buck Ya Bing's true thoughts.
"It's not uncontroversial," Xia Tian smiled and said, "It's better, you and I will take a step back. Please ask me to film, and pay a movie of 100,000 Hong Kong dollars per movie. Pay half the deposit before filming, and pay a quarter before filming, and pay the final payment after the release."
"A drama costs 100,000 yuan?! You might as well grab it!" Buck Ya Bing roared in pain, wishing he could slap Xia Tian PIA.
"Brother Bing, why should you be so stingy?! You don't think about how much you made in a movie before, but it was only tens of thousands of dollars after death. Now you have already made 300,000 yuan in a movie. In the future, you can make another big profit if you sell the show to Nanyang. And I just get a 100,000 yuan in salary. If you think it's expensive, then you might as well go find someone else." Xia Tian said with a smile.
"You...you are simply a vampire, the lion speaks! I tell you, there is no way to make this price, don't even think about it..." Buck Ya Bing scolded Xia Tian while picking up the red wine and pouring it into himself.
Xia Tian sat there, eating vegetables and drinking, with a calm expression, as if the buck teeth on the opposite side did not exist at all.
"You...you..." Buck teeth bing was fierce for a long time, but when Xia Tian didn't give in, he had to agree, "Okay, you guys have sex. 100,000 yuan is 100,000 yuan, but you have to ensure that every drama can be sold, otherwise I will cut you alive."
Xia Tian smiled, "No director in this world can guarantee that every movie he has sold is money. I can only guarantee that your movie will not lose money. As for whether you can make a lot of money, it depends on some luck."
Whether a movie can be sold for money depends on multiple factors, and some factors are beyond the control of human resources. Therefore, good movies may not have high box offices, and bad movies may not have bad box offices. The rules in this are impossible to understand even first-class filmmakers.
"Okay, that's it." Buck Ya Bing also knew that his request was a bit too much, so he nodded, "The next movie, you must start filming as soon as possible."
"Okay, give me two days to prepare the script." Xia Tian did not refuse and agreed, "By the way, how much do you plan to invest?"
"It's better to have 100,000 Hong Kong dollars." Buck Ya Bing didn't dare to take any more risks, and was still preparing to continue shooting C-level films.
"Okay, just say as much as you say." Xia Tian smiled, but did not object.
...
After the business was negotiated, the atmosphere in the private room suddenly became warmer again.
Buck Yabing's face was no longer as ugly as before. He smiled and said to Xia Tian, "A Tian, I'm right to look at our "Midnight Wolf" and "The Butcher Lin Guoyun on the Rainy Night". I think it's better to continue working hard and shoot a few more such strange films. What do you think?"
"Okay, what can I do if Brother Bing says?" Xia Tian nodded and smiled.
Seeing that he agreed to his opinion, Buck Ya Bing became even happier, "Then what do you think we can take?"
Xia Tian blinked, "Just shoot "The King of Vampire", which can resonate with the audience."
"Ah?!" Buck Ya Bing was stunned, then his face turned dark, "How can that work!"
He is a loan shark. Now he wants to make such a movie in the summer. Wouldn’t he be scolding him?
"Why can't it be possible? Just make money. Director Li Hanxiang also filmed a film "Thirty Years of Details" to expose Shaw Brothers's material. Sir Shao didn't think so." Xia Tian retorted, "Brother Bing, how can he be rich in face?"
After hearing what he said, Buck Ya Bing measured it in his heart, and finally nodded, "Then let's shoot this one."
"Yeah, that's all." Xia Tian said again, "You need manpower, props, etc. at that time, you need strong support."
"Okay." Buck Ya Bing also agreed immediately. He has always been very positive about things that can bring benefits to him.
After dinner, Buck Ya Bing ordered someone to drive Xia Tian and the others back, "Ah Tian, we have agreed that a new show will start in two days. Don't shake me." Before leaving, he reminded again.
"Don't worry, Brother Bing. You are so wise and wise, who can shake you?" Xia Tian smiled.
"Brother Tian, you are really amazing. A drama costs 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. Wow, then you will become a millionaire right away?" Chen Yixin said excitedly.
"What a millionaire is? In the future, our brothers will all become billionaires." Xia Tian said confidently.
"I don't want to be a billionaire anymore. I'm already satisfied to be a millionaire." Chen Yixin was startled by Xia Tian's words and waved his hand and said.
"Don't worry, follow me and do it well. I promise to make you a millionaire." Xia Tian patted his shoulder and said.
...
After returning home, Xia Tian first wrote the script of "The King of Vampire".
This story tells the story of A Feng, the wife of Abao, the Dragon and Tiger martial arts master, owed Guili a sum of money because she was addicted to gambling. Unexpectedly, Guili Wang Li went to Gali and borrowed 20,000 yuan but asked her to repay 100,000 yuan. A Feng had no money to pay off the debt, so she was raped by Guili and took a videotape, which threatened her to sell herself.
A Bao's martial arts friend recruited prostitutes and happened to have sex with A Feng. The story reached A Bao's ears, and he was furious and finally killed King Guili and sent him to jail.
Xia Tian's script is adapted from the movie "The King of Vampire" starring Huang Qiusheng in 1994. It mainly deletes some scenes and plots to achieve the purpose of saving costs.
Although he was not sure how much the cost of Huang Qiusheng's version of "The King of Vampire" was, the initial estimate would not be less than three million. Even if part of the actor's pay was deducted, the cost should be around one million Hong Kong dollars. Now, in summer, there are only 100,000 yuan, so you have to be careful to calculate it.
After finally completing the script of "The King of Vampire", Xia Tian couldn't help but sigh. The so-called "good wife" is hard to cook without rice. No matter how capable he has or has a mind, he can't make a movie without money.
"Oh, when I earn enough one million, I can shoot my own drama." Xia Tian thought to himself, "When I become my boss, I don't have to look at other people's faces anymore."
After writing the script of "The King of Vampire", Xia Tian reorganized and processed what he said to Jin Yong this morning, enriching the arguments and arguments, making this article more convincing.
He wanted to use this article to win Jin Yong's favor, so he naturally had to ensure that everything was foolproof.
In this article, Xia Tian pointed out that martial arts novels are now facing difficulties and need change urgently. Only change can we find a way out. He called on the martial arts novel community to pay attention to this, and emphasized that writers should broaden their thinking, be good at innovation, and not be conservative and live in vain.
After the article was finished, Xia Tian let out a sigh of relief. He sincerely hoped that this article would attract the attention of all famous martial arts novelists. If someone could follow his advice and start creating new types of novels, his efforts would not be in vain.
"Brother, have you finished writing the book?" Xia Tian had just stretched out from the house. At this time, the younger sister Xia Xue ran over and said with a smile.
"Yes. Wow, it's dark, I really didn't pay attention." Xia Tian smiled when he saw the lights outside the window.
As soon as he started writing a book, he didn't know the time.
"Yes, it's already dark. The food has been hot twice. I originally wanted to call you for dinner, but Brother Yixin stopped me because he was afraid of disturbing your writing." Xia Xue pouted and said, "Brother, I'm hungry!"
"Okay, eat, eat." Xia Tian nodded quickly, "Sorry, little sister, I will pay attention next time."
"Well, it's okay, brother, I know, making money is the most important thing." Xia Xue said sensible.
Soon, the food was on the table.
Because I can write books and make money in summer, my family’s life has improved a lot, and I no longer just boil noodles every day.
"Brother, I heard from Brother Yixin that you can get 100,000 yuan for filming a movie now?" Xia Xue suddenly asked.
"That's right, but I haven't got the money yet." Xia Tian smiled.
"Then, will our family's debt be paid off soon?" Xia Xue smiled happily. She was fed up with debt collection by usury.
"Yes." Xia Tian nodded, and he was confident that he would pay off all the usury in one month.
"If the debt is paid off, then my dad can come back." Xia Xue said hopefully again.
When Xia Tian heard this, his face froze.
