Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1159 The Confident Rich Second Generation
"Very good, you don't have to pay for it."
Nan Yi stopped talking nonsense, waved his hand, and asked Miao Xiaolan to drive away.
Liu Andi glanced at the taillights of the car in a daze and shook her head, trying to sober herself up, but as she shook her head, a stronger force of alcohol rushed to her head, and she staggered and almost fell down.
At this moment, a white Ferrari stopped in front of her. A man got out of the car and supported her like an arrow from a bow. He asked with concern, "Miss Liu, are you okay?"
Liu Andy looked up at the stranger and asked with a thick tongue, "Who are you?"
"I'm Wang Qingqiu, Miss Liu, you're drunk, I'll take you home."
Wang Qingqiu, about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, is a second-generation rich man from Shandong Province. His father is a wealthy man in Ye County, mainly engaged in electrical appliance processing. He must have a net worth of 100 million or 200 million, but Wang Qingqiu's consumption level far exceeds the level that his father should have with a net worth of 200 million.
There are six or seven luxury cars worth three to seven million, which means a base of 30 million. In addition, the house and daily food and clothing expenses are also not frugal. Although 200 million is not a small amount, it is wealth, not cash. Especially for industrial businesses, most of the working capital will be spent on raw materials throughout the year. There is no shortage of money for food and drink, but it is impossible to take out 30 million to buy a luxury car, unless you don't want to do this business anymore.
Wang's father had suffered a lot, so he would not allow his son to spend his money recklessly. He only collected 15 million yuan for his son to start a business, and did not give him a penny more.
It is said that the second generation of rich people are influenced by their surroundings and are knowledgeable. Wang Qingqiu took 15 million from his father, came to Beijing, rented a small office, hired four or five traders, and plunged into the stock market. In just over a year, his funds increased from the initial investment of 15 million to 130 million, more than eight times.
He has an extraordinary family background and is like a stock god. He is successful at a young age and can spend the money he earns however he wants.
Because of Wang Qingqiu's ruthless way of spending money, there are many speculations about his identity. Some speculate that he is Wang Wanke's son, while others speculate that he comes from a distinguished family. Estimates of his wealth are very high, ranging from 30 to 40 billion at the conservative end to 10 to 20 billion at the more unrestrained end.
Because of this, no one in the circle of rich second-generations in Beijing dared to look down on him, and most people politely called him Mr. Wang.
Wang Qingqiu had no intention of explaining the misunderstandings from the outside world. He was full of confidence in himself. Although he did not have a net worth of 20 billion now, he firmly believed that he would have it soon. As long as the 80 million he left in the stock account could increase by a few dozen times, it would be enough.
Confident people believe that where there is a will there is a way. For example, he had only seen Liu Andi on TV and was struck by her beauty. Now he met her again in real life, and she was slightly tipsy with rosy cheeks, looking very charming.
He believed that this was God's will and that God was helping him.
"Mr. Nan, do you want to transfer a few more people?" Miao Xiaolan said while driving on the road, looking at the rearview mirror.
Nan Yi thought for a moment, "No need to transfer from outside. When you are in the capital, let Tan Xiang, Wu Kun, Ge Pu Dao and you take turns. You three can discuss it among yourselves and try to let you and your spouse take turns off. When you go out of town, you can follow them and one of them can provide one person."
"Okay, what happened just now?"
"There will be a chance in the future. I will export the video of that moment when I get back."
Miao Xiaolan nodded, said no more, and concentrated on driving.
The next day.
Nan Yi met with Ye Yu again and talked about copyright issues.
Jiang Xuanyan went to meet Bai Xue reluctantly. She had always been determined to get the role of Jiang Lai, the heroine of "Home Peace of Mind", but Nan Yi felt that she could not live up to it. He was more optimistic about Bai Xue and even did not want to give the role of the second female lead Zhu Keke to Jiang Xuanyan. But there was nothing he could do. Jiang Xuanyan made a fuss and invoked the clauses in the contract, so the role had to be given to her.
The first and second female roles have been confirmed, and there are also female roles from third to eleventh, male one to seventeen, supporting actors, big, medium and small special actors, and over a hundred actors, big and small, who have lines and appear in scenes more than twice. All of these have to be finalized one by one. Then there are the director, lighting, photography, sound recording, props, costumes, stage management, etc., which are dozens of people again. If you want to control costs, it's better for these people to do the job themselves and not leave it all to the director.
Jiang Xuanyan, the producer, has to worry about all these things. Except for the lighting technicians who are relatively easy to find, most of the lighting technicians in the circle are from the same hometown and can be found by just shouting. As for the others, she will have a hard time.
Nan Yi's job is not easy either. As a casting director, finding actors is his job. He can ask Jiang Xuanyan to meet Bai Xue, so that she can see Bai Xue's skills. As for other things, he has to either find the actors himself or find a reliable person to do it for him.
When it comes to finding people, Nan Yi is really at a loss. It is relatively easy to find the protagonist. He just needs to go through the ones with some fame one by one and invite the most suitable ones to try out the role. It is difficult to find supporting roles. He doesn't even know who to contact.
Although he regretted his original choice, Nan Yi had no intention of backing down. If he didn't know how to do it, he would learn. Ye Wei introduced him to a veteran named Yang Xingquan, who had rich experience. He started working as a handyman in the crew in the 1980s. Over the past 20 years, he has worked his way up step by step. Except for the big director, there is no position in the crew that he has not worked in.
Nan Yi called Qian Meizi to talk to her while she was soaking her feet. His intention was to let Yang Xingquan be his assistant first, and give him all the remuneration he deserved. After "Homeownership" was finished, Yang Xingquan would bring a script over, and he would be responsible for finding investment to let Yang Xingquan be a big director. The amount was to be determined, and he would talk about it after verifying his quality.
Yang Xingquan readily agreed, secretly sighing that after many years of being a daughter-in-law, she finally became a mother-in-law.
Just after I finished washing Qian Meizi's feet, Chen Wenqin called.
"Nansheng, Lou Hua is here again to apologize for what happened last time. He also wants to give us a gift: two villas in Moon Bay Garden."
"You can accept the apology. The Lou family is the local boss. You can't avoid them when doing business in Hengdian. Forget about the compensation. I've heard that the Lou family is greedy. There are rumors that the sister Kuan who was just arrested suffered from the Lou family." Nan Yi smacked his lips. "What a pity. We went to Hengdian at the wrong time. I heard that sister Kuan's Internet cafe not only provides free Internet access, but also gives Huazi cigarettes."
Chen Wenqin could only roll her eyes at Nan Yi's bad taste and bring the topic back on track, "Nan Sheng, Lou Hua and others are still in my office."
"Got it. Send him away. As a rule, don't interfere with other people's business. Go through the formal channels when you encounter problems. Don't look for the Lou family. The Lou family's building is almost reaching its top. I guess someone has already written the script for the next scene."
"I understand."
"Come back once you have built the company structure. Don't stay there too long. You are a small family with ragged clothes and no way out. You have never seen much money, but you are too superstitious about the power of money. Be careful. Even if I am furious, it will be useless after you suffer."
Chen Wenqin scolded: "Nansheng, I have been with you for more than ten years and have seen many ups and downs ."
"Since ancient times, confident people often die in vain on the streets. Pretty girl, confidence is an attitude towards life, not a tactic. Only by walking on thin ice can you turn danger into safety and live a long life."
"I know." Chen Wenqin said coquettishly.
"You are an old girl, why are you acting so spoiled?"
Chen Wenqin was so upset that her face was full of black lines. It took less than five seconds for her to go from a pretty girl to an old maid .
"Hahaha, you should come back early and take a long vacation to accompany Mrs. Chen."
After talking to Chen Wenqin on the phone, Nan Yi called Xu Yunlei again and asked him to express his gratitude to Dugu Jian for his explanation. That was all. There was no invitation to sit down together. The subtext was to tell Dugu Jian that the matter was over, but he didn't want to have anything to do with him.
Life goes on.
With Yang Xingquan's help, Nan Yi's position as casting director became much easier. At Yang Xingquan's suggestion, casting was temporarily put aside and the director was looked for first. Under the domestic director-centered system, not leaving the director with much power would be detrimental to the future operation of the crew.
For example, the implicit benefits of casting must be left for the director, and the crew's expenses must also be approved by the director. The director is the reservoir sluice, and the layers below are large rivers and small streams. There are regulations on priorities, and each layer of benefits has a rough amount. Too much will cause trouble, and too little will also be troublesome.
Just as there are implicit agreements between building materials merchants and carpenters and bricklayers, there are also various kickback rules between film crews and supporting personnel, ranging from big things like costumes, scenery and props to small things like commissions on the purchase of boxed lunches, the ratio of meat and vegetables in meals, the degree of hand shaking when serving food, and kickbacks per extra. There's a lot of hidden knowledge in all of them.
Nan Yi had heard of these things before, but he had never had the experience of watching them from the sidelines, let alone actual combat.
Whether it is the ancient Donglaiwu or the current Wangbei Film and Television, they all implement their own system. The personnel are relatively fixed, core personnel are allocated shares and dividends, and non-core projects are commissioned. Everyone's interests are bundled together. The higher the cost, the less everyone can get.
All the table legs were knocked off and the table top was pressed directly to the ground. All the relevant people stood on the table to talk. Anyone who dared to dig the dirt under the table with his toes would be considered to have moved everyone's cheese. The company would not need to intervene, as others would be able to skin the dishonest person alive.
Precisely because of this eccentricity, Wangbei Film and Television has become a quail, rarely showing its fangs to rush out to grab resources, and is a bit out of touch with the circle. The experience gained from the Wangbei Film and Television crew is simply not applicable to crews outside.
Therefore, Nan Yi, who has been the big boss behind the scenes of a film and television company for more than 20 years, actually only knows two or three of the ten tricks in the film and television industry. One is about funding, two is about unspoken rules, and the remaining one is just the superficial knowledge of each link. He is good at bragging, but not at getting things done.
Yang Xingquan's suggestion made sense, so Nan Yi would naturally listen to it and watch him take his superior and follower Jiang Xuanyan to find a director with a southern style.
Even though Shanghai's real estate tycoons are willing to pay, if "Houseownership" cannot be successfully broadcast and fails to bring about a good advertising effect, Huangxie will be in trouble, Chunshen Construction will be squeezed out by its peers, and Zhenxuan Pictures will basically have no future.
The project of "Having a House to Feel Peace of Mind" was hastily initiated, but its execution must not be sloppy.
