Chapter 68 The surname Xiong is very insidious
Being an excellent manager must be a master of "storytelling". The outside world calls it "selling dreams". This should be said to be quite common in the venture capital industry. Many new generation billionaires in the Internet era may not be top-notch in technology, but "storytelling" will definitely make the dead live.
However, "storytelling" is different from bragging. The key difference is that it is driven by interests. For example, unicorn companies will definitely convince venture capital companies like this: "Don't worry about whether my company can make money in the future, but the listing is more than 80%, just waiting to cut the leeks of shareholders. Let's get rich together, young model sea view house..."
Therefore, there are small techniques in the verbal art, which is also a very profound science.
Huo Dong smiled faintly: "Brother Xiong, let me first talk about whether the price is affordable. You only need to work for 31 days, either finish the work within 31 days, or fail to complete it, and the organization will fail this time, and you will no longer need you. In any case, you can get 500,000 in 31 days! If calculated based on working days, our reward is already higher than 800,000. If you don't believe it, you can compare it. Are there any of you in other crews who are less than 2 months? Also, if the preparation period requires actor training, your working time will be extended. Do you think the 500,000 we gave me have a conscience?"
"Also, according to the rules in the circle, after joining the crew, asking your people to be substitutes or intervene, is all obligation, and they are all counted as your package price. We are willing to add 200,000 yuan to the movie? This money is for nothing! Let's take a step back and say that the two money has a total of 700,000 yuan, which is almost the same as 800,000 yuan. Let's bargain here. I believe that Brother Xiong, you will give Brother Shitou and me the last time, and you should be able to accept the 700,000 yuan?"
Seeing Xiong Ming thinking, he felt that Huo Dong's words seemed to make sense, but he was unwilling to take less money. Huo Dong continued to increase his investment: "Brother Xiong, you are also an old man in the circle and are also familiar with the situation in the circle. Generally, other crews, even if they have a good script, a good director, and a few good actors, often the investment is not yet in place when the filming is started, the crew still asks grandpa and grandma to invest everywhere. Is that true?"
Xiong Ming and the other two nodded. This is not a secret, the basic situation is like this. Moreover, the budget is under-reported before the project is launched, and after the shooting is officially started, it is not very strange to find investors to invest additionally.
Huo Dong smiled and said, "You should understand the situation of our crew. You can say that you are short of everything, but you are not short of money. Now all the expenses have reached a dedicated account. So why should we save? And it is also aimed at the most critical martial arts team in action movies? Are you not afraid of you being dissatisfied with trouble? Why? Why?"
Huo Dong slapped the table and leaned over to stare at Xiong Ming: "Then I will tell you, Brother Xiong, Brother Shitou, me, Sister Xue, and others. We never thought about making a big bad movie! We just wanted to make the movie!"
Sit down slowly, so Xiong Ming had time to buffer thinking. Sure enough, Xiong Ming began to actively make up for this behavior: "You... do you want to invest the money you saved in the production?"
"Yes, you get what you pay for. The more production costs, the better the quality of the film." Huo Dong smiled, "But this is only one aspect, the other aspect is practical action, which is more suitable for your team's performance. Brother Xiong, you are also more suitable as the second male second. You can perform in your true colors and also improve the quality of the film."
"Brother Xiong, I'll just say a few words here. We can work together to make the quality of the film. But the film is still a failure, and it's only destined to be the sky. But if you enter this industry, don't you want to debut? Do your brothers and sisters don't want to debut? I dare not say that they can at least occupy a special role, and you will always have a meal in the entertainment industry in the future. Do you like to keep pulling wires like this and be a stand-in? You will never see your face on the screen? And here is an opportunity! A good opportunity to start! I'll ask you again now - do you think we are not generous enough?"
Listening to Huo Dong's words, Xiong Ming and the others were silent. Especially Xiong Ming, he glanced at the corner of his eyes and found that his two junior brothers were already eager to try, looking like they were eager to pounce on him and ask for Bai Gan. He smiled bitterly in his heart. Since he entered this industry, who doesn't have that star dream? Even after hearing this, he was still very moved.
So Xiong Ming made a quick decision: "Dongzi, please wait for a while and let's discuss it."
"Haha, please."
More than ten minutes later, Xiong Ming returned to the table happily. He handed his cell phone honestly: "Dongzi, Brother Shitou's phone number."
Huo Dong took his cell phone: "Brother Shitou, I am Dongzi."
"Haha, Dongzi, let's say anything back. I have promised Xiongzi to add 50,000 yuan to give me face. They are all friends, so I can pack a package of 750,000 yuan for them! Hahaha..."
Huo Dong understood why Liu Shi couldn't help but be happy. Not only did he spend 50,000 less now, he also solved the problem of the second male lead and several special actors, saving at least 300,000 inside and outside. Moreover, Xiong Ming still looks like he takes advantage of it. However, the person named Xiong is indeed insidious enough, and he actually calls Liu Shi secretly? Do you think bald heads are easier to bully?
Huo Dong complained in a pretentious manner: "Brother Xiong, are you...? Alas! The producers are all black-hearted, so they have to find a kind director, right?"
"Hehehe." Xiong Ming laughed proudly, "Don't blame my brother, my brother is poor with his family! Don't worry, after the filming, my brother will definitely invite you to drink. It's hard for me! Look at me, I have lost almost 20 kilograms of meat in recent months!"
Seeing Xiong Ming trembling all over, Huo Dong could only be speechless: "Okay! Then it's settled, and wait for us to notify you."
"Don't worry." Xiong Ming shook hands with Huo Dong and said goodbye. He asked casually, "Who is the male lead?"
"I."
"Ah?" Xiong Ming and the others were greatly surprised, "You...?"
"What? My appearance is not suitable?" Huo Dong asked with a smile. He turned around and smiled at the waitress again, making the young lady's legs weak again.
"No, no." After holding it in for a few seconds, one of Xiong Ming's companions finally couldn't help asking, "Can you really do the action scenes? What you just asked..."
"Don't worry, Brother Xiong. Unless you need a substitute, I can complete other movements. It is definitely not comparable to those of you professions, but in terms of fighting, I should be considered an amateur. Also, I have been practicing dancing, and flexibility is definitely fine. So in terms of movement design, you will follow yours. If the shooting is not possible, let's discuss it."
"What about the appearance?" Xiong Ming continued to ask.
"Brother Xiong, I am 1.82 meters tall, and the visual effect should be similar. It is nothing more than body shape. But the contrast here can highlight the lens effect. We have already considered this, so don't worry!"
"That's good. Then... see you again?"
