205 The script of "Young Zhang Sanfeng"
Just when Ye Fan was thinking about who to cast in the supporting roles of "Sassy Girlfriend", on the 16th, Cao Xin, who was far away in Chou Country, also called.
"Xiaofan, Peggy and Brin have agreed to your investment. They are willing to give you 10% of the shares and $100,000. I asked about it and they also offered the same price to Yahoo, Sun Microsystems and other Silicon Valley companies."
Ye Fan asked curiously: "Sister Xin, since they haven't found investment yet, why did they think about it for so long?"
Cao Xin smiled and said: "They are asking for information about me and you. They were very surprised to learn that you are a big star in China. I don't know why you want to invest in them."
"They only agreed after they confirmed that your identity and funds were okay, and you had the strength to invest."
Seeing that the two of them were not as open-mouthed as lions, Ye Fan felt that the college students were really young and didn't know how much money to ask for. They were probably a little desperate after being rejected by companies in Silicon Valley.
Ye Fan smiled and said: "Sister Xin, there is no problem with 10% of the shares for 100,000 US dollars, but you can help me negotiate. If they want to raise funds later, I want to have priority investment rights."
"If they don't agree or hesitate, you can add some money this time. I only need part of their second round of financing shares."
After hearing Ye Fan's bottom line, Cao Xin knew what was going on. After asking some questions, she hung up the phone and went to negotiate with Peiqi and the others.
Regarding this investment, Ye Fan is planning to invest in his own name, and he does not want to expose the relationship between Zhongsheng Company and him.
Moreover, being a shareholder of a large company in Chou Country will be more beneficial for Ye Fan to go to Chou Country to make money in the future. Ye Fan is still thinking about the Warriors, who happen to be in the Bay Area.
As for the Lakers and Corvo, forget it and go to sleep.
Ye Fan first put this matter aside and called Master Han. The first PY target must be this man.
Ye Fan, the director of "Young Zhang Sanfeng", already had a candidate in mind, but unfortunately he was within the system and Chaoyang Company did not invite him. He had his own TV series to shoot, so Ye Fan could only ask Mr. Han to come forward.
Knowing Ye Fan's purpose, Han Sanye agreed with a smile. He was also willing to sell Ye Fan's favor, after all, Ye Fan had given him several roles.
Han Sanye studied in the directing department of Nortel, and the Beijing Film Studio also has its own actors. He uses the role as a favor, which is very beneficial to his future status.
After settling Mr. Han's side, Ye Fan naturally can't forget about his alma mater's drama. He is expected to start filming "Sassy Girlfriend" in April.
Now is not the summer vacation. If you want Chang Li and the school to allow them to go out for filming, how can you not give them some benefits? It is also time to give back to your alma mater.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan called Chang Li...
"Lao Liu, have you heard that Ye Fan's new movie will be cast in school."
Seeing the gossipy expression on Zhang Ziyi's face, Liu Huohua said: "Why don't you know? But I heard that all the actors chosen this time are older actors. There are not many young roles. I guess some teachers will be chosen to play them."
Zhang Ziyi said regretfully: "It's such a pity. I heard that the salary offered by Ye Fan this time was not low, and the school could also share some money. If those young characters hadn't had too few roles, I would have gone to Ye Fan to tell him.
.”
Liu Huohua also said depressedly: "I really want to act in another movie. I heard that it is a big production in Hong Kong. The starring roles are Leslie Cheung and Andy Lau. I am willing to act with them even if the pay is low."
Mei Ting heard the conversation between the two and came over and said: "Who said otherwise? I originally had the opportunity to work with Leslie Cheung, but he pushed "Beauty from the North" for Ye Fan's new movie."
"Ah, is it like this? What a pity. Will there be any chance for you to cooperate in the future?"
"Ye Fan is really amazing. This shows that the script of Ye Fan's new movie must be very good, otherwise Leslie Cheung would not be like this."
Mei Ting replied: "Yeah, there's nothing we can do about it. There may be a chance with Leslie Cheung in the future, but we have to wait until he finishes filming Ye Fan's movie."
After hearing the three people chatting, other people in Class 96 also came over to gossip.
When Ye Fan and Zeng Li entered the classroom, they saw a group of people gathered around and talking. When they saw Ye Fan arriving, they all gathered around to inquire about the script of "Infernal Affairs".
Ye Fan didn't say much. After getting to know him, these people were very gossipy. They might not know when the plot would be spread out. He didn't want to be caught by other people in Hong Kong and made some nonsense about "The Way of the World". This
But it affects reputation very much.
This is not impossible. With Ye Fan's current fame and film performance, some film and television companies on Hong Kong Island have already started plagiarizing the two films "Suspect" and "My Body".
After Hu casually chatted with them, Ye Fan was ready to start class.
On the other hand, Mei Ting looked at him with a resentful look, which made Ye Fan confused. He would not think that Mei Ting was interested in him. The Ye Daguan behind her was really awesome.
So Ye Fan asked Liu Huohua about the situation, and then he found out what was going on, which made him dumbfounded.
Ye Fan really didn't know about the movie "Northern Beauty". As for their discussion about Ye Fan's high salary for the actors and a sum of money for the school.
The 15 million yuan needed to make "My Sassy Girl" would definitely be too much to spend. Ye Fan's purpose in asking for so much money was not only to ensure the quality of the movie, but also to increase the remuneration for the mainland actors.
Moreover, it was not Ye Fan who made the biggest investment. He used this name to donate a sum of money to the school and achieve multiple things with one stone.
If there is still money left in the end, won't Ye Fan pay for writing songs for the movie? He can earn back the money he invested in minutes.
Chang Li also agreed to Ye Fan's decision to go out to film a movie this time. There was nothing she could do about it, Ye Fan gave her too much!
Let's not talk about it at school. When the teachers in the department heard about the salary offered by Ye Fan, they all spoke modestly, saying that there were not many roles and it was boring to act, but they secretly hinted to Chang Li and the others that they wanted to act.
If the teacher hadn't gone directly to the students to make things difficult for them, they would have gone to Ye Fan directly.
After taking care of most of the movie's affairs, Ye Fan doesn't need to worry about the rest. He leaves it to Wang Jinghua to handle. He only needs to wait for the decision to be made and the movie to start shooting.
In the days that followed, Ye Fan was finally able to return to normal school life. He went to class during the day and spent the evening with Zeng Li, while conceiving the script for "Young Zhang Sanfeng".
Ye Fan is not going to copy this TV series, although the original version of "Young Zhang Sanfeng" is a pleasure to watch and is also rated as a classic by later generations.
However, this TV series still has a lot of shortcomings, and many plots cannot stand up to scrutiny. The ending of "Young Zhang Sanfeng" made Ye Fan feel like it started but ended.
Therefore, Ye Fan will definitely have to adapt the beginning and ending of "Young Zhang Sanfeng".
Young Guo Xiang and young Zhang Junbao will definitely appear. Following the plot of "Withered God", Junbao has been obsessed with Guo Xiang his whole life, so how can he still have romantic scenes with other women?
Especially there are some kissing scenes in it. If Hu Jing still decides to star in it, the kissing scenes will definitely be deleted.
Wu Jing, just let him show off his kung fu. Romantic scenes and kissing scenes are not his strengths. Falling in love will only affect the speed of his punches!
Is Wu Jing doing Tai Chi in this drama? Uh... No matter, for things like falling in love, it's better to let Ye Fan do the work for him, especially kissing scenes and passionate scenes, which are Ye Fan's strengths!
In this case, wouldn't "Young Zhang Sanfeng" have two more characters? Couldn't Gao Yuanyuan and Hu Ge be arranged?
It's a pity that Yang Mi is too young, she is only 12 years old now. Guo Xiang and Zhang Junbao were already 16 when they first met, and Gao Yuanyuan is still a little fat. Her current age is quite suitable to play the young girl Guo Xiang.
Otherwise, if Yang Mi plays the role of Guo Xiang in advance, this drama will really have a magical cast in the future! But with the future Zhou Zhiruo playing the role, the effect will not be bad.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan felt very proud. The timeline had already been set, and while the future stars were not famous, he could create a fairy lineup however he wanted!
Moreover, Ye Fan also had his own ideas. He planned to use the scene where Guo Xiang met Yang Guo for the first time as the beginning of "Young Zhang Sanfeng".
The person who plays Yang Guo is naturally Ye Fan, but Ye Fan will wear a mask and turn away the camera the moment he takes off the mask.
But wearing a mask in a costume drama means that the people in the drama can't tell who is wearing the mask, but the audience is very keen-eyed.
In addition, Ye Fan's face is so recognizable that even if he is wearing a mask, everyone knows that it is him who plays Yang Guo, so it is self-evident what Ye Fan's little thoughts are.
So in this regard, Ye Fan still needs to communicate with Jin Yong. After all, with his old man's plot, he still needs to say hello and give him the money he deserves, for the future.
The middle plot of "Young Zhang Sanfeng" can be written according to the original version, plus the historical plot of the Meng Yuan invasion, and Xiaoyao King is set to be a master of the Meng Yuan camp.
Zhang Junbao added the plot of resisting the Mongol invasion and performing chivalrous acts of justice, which made the plot much richer and more ambitious.
On the other hand, Ye Fan was a little confused about which role to play in this TV series. In terms of role and image, it would definitely be Yi Tianxing.
In addition, "Young Zhang Sanfeng" has Zhang Cuishan and Yin Susu, and they are connected to "The Legend of Heaven and Sword of the Dragon", so they understand everything!
Therefore, Ye Fan wants to make "Young Zhang Sanfeng" into a connecting drama between "Shen Wither" and "Yitian", and also wants to star in dramas such as "Shen Wither" and "Yitian" in the future. It will take a lot of brain cells and effort!
Taking this opportunity, Ye Fan accompanied Hu Jing on the pretext of discussing the script, and asked her to go shopping and play poker together. He couldn't neglect a beauty.
Hu Jing naturally did not refuse Ye Fan's invitation to star in "Young Zhang Sanfeng". Of course she did not know how popular she would be after "Huan Zhu Ge Ge" was aired.
After "Huan Zhuge Ge" is aired, with the participation of Hu Jing, a "little swallow", and with Ye Fan upgrading the script and starring himself, the ratings of "Young Zhang Sanfeng" will definitely reach a higher level.
When Jin Yong received a call from Ye Fan and learned about Ye Fan's idea, he readily agreed to Ye Fan's adaptation without charging Ye Fan any fees.
It just connects some plots, mainly about Zhang Sanfeng, and can also help Jin Yong's novels expand their reputation. He is too late to be happy.
Moreover, Jin Yong highly recognized Ye Fan's writing and adapting skills. He didn't even say that he wanted to read Ye Fan's adapted script of "Young Zhang Sanfeng".
However, Ye Fan was very sensible and took the initiative to ask Jin Yong to comment and make corrections after the script was written, which made Jin Yong even more satisfied and his favorable impression of Ye Fan improved a lot.
Seeing that Jin Yong was very happy and satisfied, Ye Fan's goal was achieved. He would not flatter someone in vain and made Jin Yong happy. In the future, when he wants to compete for Yang Guo, Duan Yu and other roles, Jin Yong's words,
But it is much more effective than the hype of a big beard.
Even if Ye Fan's fame doesn't require Jin Yong to help him stand up, it can help him have more say when he and Big Beard have a dispute!
Chapter completed!
