Chapter 206.

“I said Old Wang, I told you, I have trust in you, if there’s anything, just set it yourself.” Cheng Mo had great trust in Wang Hai.

This man’s character was tested by history, how else could he not trust him? Otherwise, the Flower Room Society and Loulan Movie Studio wouldn’t have been given to him to take care of, of course the movie studio was basically run by Tang Tao.

But Cheng Mo usually only drew a framework, they did the rest, he had too many things to do and had absolutely no time.

“This matter must be decided by you personally, neither Tang Tao nor I can make the decision.” Wang Hai said.

“Go ahead, what is it?”

“The casting for the movie ‘Ghost Husband’ has begun, we’ve hit on someone, but we can’t manage it.” Wang Hai explained.

“Not enough money, or no slot?” Cheng Mo asked, these days, it took at most a month to make a movie, which was already slow work.

If it was fast, it was released in a week.

“Neither.”

“Then what’s the reason?” Cheng Mo asked rhetorically.

“The problem with the theater line.”

“What do you mean, the theater line wasn’t negotiated?” Cheng Mo asked, according to his own conception, the production company shoots the movie and gives it to the theater to show, using a split model, there should be a theater willing to do so, of course, not worrying about the movie theater where the film will be shown that’s another matter.

“We’ve talked to a few movie theaters, and all of them have the intention, however, our actors are all signed with the movie company right now, and they’re using this as blackmail, they all want to work with us alone.”

“Have they signed yet?”

“None of them have been finalized yet, for the lead roles we want to use Zhao An and Zhou Xuan, Zhao An’s side is not a big problem, it’s Zhou Xuan that’s a bit difficult, the conditions we’ve given are good, and Zhou Xuan is interested in starring, but the problem lies in the Liu brothers behind Zhou Xuan as well as her husband, Yan Hua.” Tang Tao said.

“What’s the problem with Liu’s brothers and Iwah?”

“The Liu Brothers are preparing to set up a new film company and want to carry the flag with our film, and after the film’s production is completed, they want to exclusively show it in the movie theaters under their name, in addition, they want to underwrite the production and distribution.” Wang Haidao.

This is not borrowing a chicken to lay an egg, this is borrowing the chicken, laying an egg, even the hen a piece of carry away, this appetite is also a little too big.

“And?”

“There is no more ……” Wang Hai and Tang Tao two people look at each other, this is not enough, is not equal to the dominant power of the movie to others, this also set up a movie studio to do what?

“Not a small appetite, this Liu Brothers don’t know that you also have someone behind you?” Cheng Mo laughed coldly, the two major companies, Star and Lianhua, had left and dispersed, and now that movie studios were springing up in the rented world, he was still worried about finding someone to work with.

Not to mention that he also holds the power of movie censorship.

In business, cooperation to get rich, this he agrees, but want to swallow yourself in one bite, do you have a good set of teeth?

“It should not be known yet, after all, your relationship with us has never been announced to the public.” Wang Hai said.

Even if Cheng Mo started his own movie company, he was still able to pull in investment, not to mention that his old man had money.

As long as the new book came out and went on the market, the money came pouring in, not to mention that many licenses were signed and money came in on the spot.

“Has this Zhou Xuan signed with a movie company?” “As far as I know, not yet, she and Iwah just came back from Southeast Asia tour, I heard, there are a few top bands are approaching her, wanting her to join, one of them ‘Jazz Choir’ contact more frequently, it seems to be interested in joining.”

“Find a way to contact this jazz choir and see if you can acquire or take a stake in it.” Cheng Mo commanded.

“This could cost quite a bit of money?”

“Trust me, ‘Golden Voice’ Zhou Xuan is a money tree, but falling into the hands of the Liu Brothers is never a good thing, find a way to sign her to our movie studio, and his husband, Yan Hua, sign him up first.” Cheng Mo said.

The tragic fate of this movie queen, Cheng Mo didn’t know about it, it’s just that, knowing about it, if you can reach out and help, you still have to help.

“We have no fame whatsoever, it’s fine to hire people to make movies and spend money on them, but if we want to sign a contract, the treatment will be different.” Wang Hai said.

“I’ll go personally for signing Zhou Xuan, you guys don’t need to worry about it, focus on building the filming team.” Cheng Mo said, “If you don’t have enough manpower, go poach people, but I don’t want indiscriminate people, I want the best.”

“Regarding the director staff, we have two, one is Fei Mo, the other one is Yuan Mei, both of them are very good, the latter even made a good and popular movie like Angel, but he is from Star Movie Company, we contacted him, we are only afraid that it’s hard to hire him, Fei Mo is sure, we can even sign him to come to us. ” Wang Hai said.

“Then let’s book Fei Mo first, Yuan Mei’s side can also be fought for, if he is willing to come, then let him be the director, Fei Mo can be the producer.”

“That’s a compromise, if we lead the shooting ourselves, I’m afraid the shooting cost will be huge, and we don’t have our own theater line, begging others to show our movie, it’s always much worse than having our own theater line.”

“Talk on the Liu Brothers side first, if it’s not possible, we’ll acquire a few theaters and make our own theater line.” Cheng Mo said.

The stock market money-grabbing plan had already begun, the filming of the movie to its release, at least three or four months, during this time, as long as you can acquire or hold two or three theaters, then the movie will not be worried about its release if it is made.

Himself, a soul from the twenty-first century, playing this, isn’t it a descending blow? “Also, put all the revenue from the sale of my First Dream into this movie as well as the movie studio, if there’s a suitable place, you can buy it first and we’ll build our own studio.” Cheng Mo said.

“That would cost a lot of money.”

“This is later, not for you to realize it for him now.” Cheng Mo said, “Now is the stage of primitive accumulation, reserve talents and resources, understand?”

“Understood.”

“Tang Tao, if there are not enough people, you can recruit again, poach people, it’s all fine, even if they don’t come, you can still make a good relationship, don’t stick to a single mode of cooperation.”

“Good.”

“I let you spend money, but it is not for you to spend money indiscriminately, money that should be spent should be spent, but what should be saved should also be saved, my goal is to fight for our movie to be released in the Spring Festival!” Cheng Mo added another sentence.

After the meeting was adjourned, Tang Tao stayed alone and quietly whispered in Cheng Mo’s ear, “Du Cuckoo wants to see you.”

“When?” Cheng Mo was slightly shocked, “Cuckoo” was Nakamura Kung’s code name, he was on a business trip a while ago, why did he want to see him as soon as he came back.

“Depending on your schedule, he’s all right.”

“Well, help me arrange it, let’s do it this weekend, I’ll go over there.” Cheng Mo nodded and ordered, unless it was a special emergency, he couldn’t just run around.

“Okay.” Tang Tao nodded.
