Chapter 717: The Mysterious Case of the Wu Dynasty
In the reception room on the top floor of the Lu Family Catering Building, Lu Dong met Zhang Yuanfang who was rushing over.
Right next to it, there was a man of similar age to Zhang Yuanfang. He had a big brain, a short neck, a pretty burly figure, and a natural villain.
Lu Dong was sure of which TV series I saw this face. If you think about it carefully, it seemed that he was the leader of the villain in a certain movie "Detective Di Renjie".
Zhang Yuanfang quickly introduced to Lu Dong: "Mr. Lu, this is Qian Yangchun, my friend in the dormitory when I was studying in Beijing Dining. He is now an actor, screenwriter and director."
He then introduced Lu Dong: "Lao Qian, this is Mr. Lu, the boss of Lu's Catering Group. The Burger King, which has been praised by people during this period, is a catering brand under General Lu's company."
Before Qian Yangchun came, he heard Zhang Yuanfang say it carefully, otherwise he would not have come from the capital thousands of miles away. He hurriedly stepped forward and shook hands with Lu Dong: "Mr. Lu, it is my honor to know you!"
People are very polite, and Lu Dong naturally respects people. He specially called the title of the most important position, invited the two of them to sit down, and then said, "Director Qian is so polite."
Zhang Yuanfang said at the right time: "Mr. Lu is not an outsider. This year, he invested in Zhao Laogen's TV series "Rural Love" and cooperated with Sanguan Film and Television and YiTaiwan."
Qian Yangchun kept smiling on his big face: "I have heard from Mr. Lu's investment, decisive! Masturbation!"
Lu Kun temporarily acted as a waiter and served tea next to him.
This time I followed Zhang Yuanfang to attract investment. The entertainment industry is never limited to the entertainment industry, especially the funds. The industry has long withered by relying solely on funds within the circle. The prosperity of today is also the result of continuous absorption of out-of-circle investment.
When Lu Dong heard this, he knew that Qian Yangchun had been used to being in the entertainment industry and had already practiced his face. Of course, he would not take such words seriously. He said, "I am not a generous person. There are many restrictions on investment and all the rules and regulations. Teacher Zhao complains a lot."
Some things he said before, these people wanted to treat him as a coal boss nouveau riche, but they thought it was a bit out of the question: "Just say that Zhao Laogen and I invested a lot of money in this cooperation, but there are many restrictions, such as shooting all in Qingzhao County, such as cooperating with Sanguan Film and Television, such as implanting advertisements for Lujia Village and Lu's catering, etc."
Qian Yangchun could understand the meaning of this sentence: "It is natural to take care of others' jobs and be controlled by others."
He heard Zhang Yuanfang say that the relationship behind this person is complicated and difficult to mess with. Look at the KFC and McDonald's, who have been in a dilapidated manner recently and cannot be put out even if the fire is fired everywhere, and look at the Hamburger King, which is highly praised by the media, this Lu Dong's power and means can be seen.
Can you be a good fight with a large multinational company like KFC and McDonald's?
Besides, this person is conservatively estimated to have a net worth of one billion, and he can even kill them those who are in the entertainment industry with money.
Zhang Yuanfang could hear that Lu Dong gave him a little warning, and it probably had something to do with Zhao Laogen.
It’s not that Zhao Laogen has a grudge with their brothers, but because of the current relationship between Zhao Laogen and Lu Dong, he will definitely talk to Lu Dong about a lot of bad things in the entertainment industry. The biggest and worst of them are the Beijing Circle, and Lao Qian is also half a person in the Beijing Circle.
He brought old money over, and a discerning person could tell at a glance that it was to invest. It was normal for Lu Dong to say something first.
Zhang Yuanfang had a deal with Lu Dong and continued, "Mr. Lu, Lao Qian and I have had enough of it there. I just wanted to start a business by myself and film a few works that were truly up to us. Although I am not from Taidong, I am famous in Taidong. I have been working with Sanguan Film and Television in recent years. I have a deep affection for Taidong. What I want most is to be here in Taidong and make some achievements."
Lu Dong asked deliberately: "Teacher Zhang, are you and Director Qian planning to start a business in Quannan?"
When Zhang Yuanfang heard Lu Dong say this, he was stunned for a moment.
As a purer actor, he didn't react so quickly.
But Qian Yangchun is much more complicated. He is a good actor. He later worked as a screenwriter, a director, and an executive producer. He often deals with people and has a more active mind.
"Old Zhang and I do have this idea."
For those of them, when the tax revenue is similar, there is not much difference between where the company is registered. Qian Yangchun said: "We plan to jump out of the capital and start a career."
Lu Dong asked directly: "So, director Qian has a suitable work?"
Qian Yangchun came, so he was naturally ready. He immediately opened the bag he carried with him, took out a thick stack, and placed it on the coffee table between Lu Dong: "I plan to plan a series of costume dramas, a type that integrates suspense, martial arts and historical plots."
Lu Dong pointed: "Can you see?"
Qian Yangchun quickly said, "This time I came here just to ask President Lu to help me with my palms."
Even if Lu Dong listens to this kind of polite words, he will pick it up and look at it. The top part is not the costume drama project Qian Yangchun mentioned, but the introduction of Qian Yangchun's own resume.
Lu Dong knew that these were used to increase persuasion. After all, few people know directors and screenwriters these days.
However, the above is not too long-winded, just introduces Qian Yangchun's recent works and related introductions.
I don’t know if I don’t watch it. I was shocked when I saw it. Qian Yangchun has written and directed the revolutionary gunfight drama "Hero", and its protagonist is Yan Shuangying!
It seems that this is the first part of the Yan Shuangying series?
As long as the enemy does not use nuclear weapons, we promise not to use Yan Shuangying!
Also, Qian Yangchun, the screenwriter of the ghost and animal masterpiece "The Last Biography of Journey to the West" is also Qian Yangchun!
This is probably very impressive to many people. Apart from Wulan, they are replaying the action shots that are like water-filled throughout the film, which is simply crazy!
After reading these quickly, Lu Dong saw the introduction of the costume drama project and the first draft of the script, which was different from what he thought. The script was called "The Mysterious Case of the Wu Chao".
It turned out that it wasn't Li Yuanfang fighting Di Renjie?
Lu Dong was surprised and thought he had remembered it wrong. When he looked at the contents, it was clearly Di Renjie.
In this first draft script, you can find some impressive sentences: the surname Di, named Renjie, a Bingzhou person, the official, the Fengge Yingtai Pingzhangshi, was demoted and appointed as the commander-in-chief of Youzhou, and was ordered to transfer all military and political affairs in Youzhou!
There are also lines of characters that are familiar like catchphrases.
"I have a hint of uneasiness in my heart!"
"A thought jumped into my mind!"
"So I came to this conclusion!"
Then there is Li Yunfang, the king of the king: if you walk correctly and sit upright, you will never compromise with criminals. If you beat him from the bottom of your heart, you will have a positive attitude.
Even the words on the paper reminded Lu Dong of the familiar taste of undercover agents, spies, anti-corruption, intelligence exchange, and Jedi counterattack!
This is not so much a case-solving drama as an anti-special drama.
Lu Dong just browsed a little bit and confirmed that it was the drama, so he closed the information book.
Qian Yangchun felt a thud and asked tentatively: "Mr. Lu, do you think my drama..."
"I am an amateur and I don't understand it very well." Lu Dong was telling the truth. His criterion for judging was not the script story at all: "I just think it's quite interesting. Many people know that Di Renjie's name is Di Gong. When I was a child, I heard the storytelling "The Case of Di Gong in the Tang Dynasty" and I was quite impressed by this person."
This statement has a certain tendency. Qian Yangchun breathed a little relieved. When filming costume dramas, it cost a lot of money. If he doesn't attract a rich boss, he can't shoot them by himself.
Selling it to film and television production companies to seek cooperation, starting a company and cooperating with people, these two ways.
If possible, Qian Yangchun wants to choose the latter with higher freedom: "Mr. Lu, this drama doesn't require too much investment, we..."
As a potential investor, Lu Dong had an absolute advantage. At this time, he interrupted Qian Yangchun and said, "Director Qian, listen to me first."
He could roughly guess that Qian Yangchun came out to invest. On the one hand, he really needed money, and on the other hand, he said directly: "I am an absolute layman in filming TV series. If I invest here, my professional work will definitely be handed over to professionals like Director Qian and Teacher Zhang."
Hearing this, Qian Yangchun was half filled with his heart and was alone. The most feared thing was that the boss who invested money, and after investing money, he seriously interfered with the crew's work.
It is not a problem to stuff people into the crew or even put a bunch of women, so it is just a random shot of interfering in the filming.
"I, Lao Qian, still have some ability and credibility. Mr. Lu is relieved." Qian Yangchun knew about Lu Dong and did not dare to do anything randomly.
Even KFC and McDonald's dare to mess with people, don't be too relaxed when they are involved.
Zhang Yuanfang also said at this time: "Mr. Lu, I have been making a living in Quannan for most of the years. You are familiar with the people from Sanguan Film and Television. You will know what kind of person I am when you inquire about it."
Such investments naturally cannot be dependent on personal character and credibility.
Lu Dong was very direct: "I just want to say a few requirements, but it is not complicated. My Lu Holdings invested and established a film and television production company with Director Qian and Teacher Zhang. The company needs to be placed in Quannan. Of course, I must have a controlling stake. "Wu Chao Mystery" is a project that is filmed by the company... Well, how do you say the name "Wu Chao Mystery"? From my personal perspective, it is not very clear..."
Qian Yangchun has been in the entertainment industry for many years and can bend and stretched: "Why would Mr. Lu, please change it?"
Lu Dong smiled: "I just proposed that it is okay, will it be the money guide you to make a decision? How about "Detective Di Renjie"?"
Qian Yangchun slapped his legs and showed a little exaggeratedly: "This is a good name, it's called "Detective Di Renjie"!"
Lu Dong looked at Zhang Yuanfang: "Director Qian, I personally like Teacher Zhang very much. Teacher Zhang must act in this drama."
Zhang Yuanfang smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your love! In fact, the character of Li Yuanfang was tailored for me by Lao Qian."
Lu Dong nodded and continued: "This drama needs to be cooperated with Sanguan Film and Television. With Sanguan Film and Television, at least Taidong Provincial TV Station will provide a guarantee. Also, on the company and crew, Lu's Holdings will not participate in daily management and other work, but will dispatch financial supervisors."
Inside and out, Lu Dong said that he had made many statements, which was actually to ensure the investment of Lu's Holdings.
The following people will also need to discuss in detail later.
