Even though Yan Tao was not optimistic about Zhang Yang and Yang Mi's chances of winning, he still personally met them because of Yang Mi's friend. Yan Tao was giving face to Yang Mi's friend.
"Hello, Team Leader Yan." Zhang Yang took the initiative to extend his hand to Yan Tao.
"Little Zhang, you're really a talented young man.”Yan Tao shook Zhang Yang's hand and smiled.
"Team Leader Yan." Yang Mi also extended her hand.
"Hello, Yang Mi." Yan Tao also shook Yang Mi's hand. However, since Zhang Yang was present, he did not hold Yang Mi's hand tightly. He only held her hand lightly and let go.
After the three of them sat down, Yan Tao said,"Have you brought all the information?"
"I brought them all." Zhang Yang nodded. Then, he gave Yan Tao the list of filming expenses, equipment rental expenses, and the remuneration of the actors and crew.
"The total investment is 12 million. It's not a big production!”Yan Tao said," You should know that Flame Shadow's recent focus is on those big productions. We're really not interested in movies that are less than 50 million yuan like yours.”
"Team Leader Yan, 12 million isn't that low.”Zhang Yang smiled." Besides, it's better to have a low investment and high returns nowadays." I'm still very confident in my movie.”
"Oh?" "Then, Little Zhang, how much do you think your movie will do at the box office if it's really released?" Yan Tao asked with a smile.”
"It shouldn't be less than 300 million!" Zhang Yang said without hesitation.
"Whoa, 300 million. You sure have a big mouth.”Yan Tao said with a look of disdain,"Do you know how much the 10th place in the box office this year has been so far? It was only a little over 200 million. You're asking for 300 million. Aren't you taking the movie too lightly?”
"Team Leader Yan, this is my confidence." Zhang Yang said," I've already brought the film. If you think I'm being too arrogant, why don't we take a look at the film first and then discuss this issue?"”
Yan Tao did not answer Zhang Yang's question. Instead, he picked up the cup on the table and took a sip. Then, he asked calmly,"Little Zhang, if I may ask, have you studied directing before?”
"No, I haven't." Zhang Yang replied. When Yan Tao asked this question, he already understood that Yan Tao had no intention of signing him for this movie at all. The reason why he wanted to meet them was probably because of the middleman.
"The profession of a director sounds very simple. You just need to sit in front of the camera and give instructions. However, to make a good movie, a lot of professional knowledge was needed.”"Do you really think people will watch a movie made by an outsider like you?" Yan Tao said earnestly. I advise you to wake up. There's nothing wrong with being a man who lives off a woman.”
Yan Tao's words were somewhat insulting. Yang Mi was furious when she heard that. She stood up and wanted to scold Yan Tao.
"Team Leader Yan, sorry to disturb you.”Without waiting for Yang Mi to speak, Zhang Yang stood up and said,""However, I have something to say to you. The river flows thirty times east, and the river flows thirty times west. Don't bully the young and poor. Although I rely on my wife now, you'll know after my movie is released that you're not even one-tenth as good as my wife in terms of taste.”
Without waiting for Yan Tao to retort, Zhang Yang turned to Yang Mi and said,""Honey, let's go."
"Team Leader Yan, believe me, you will definitely regret it.”Yang Mi said to Yan Tao, then she held onto Zhang Yang's arm and left Yan Tao's office.
Initially, the two of them thought that since they had found a middleman and the other party had agreed to meet, it should not be a problem. However, he did not expect Yan Tao to be so conceited. Without even looking at the film, she was already certain that Zhang Yang would not be able to produce a high-quality film. She really didn't know how a person like him, who was based on his own subjective wishes, became a team leader. He probably gave gifts.
"You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!" After the two of them left, Yan Tao said angrily.
After leaving Yan Tao's office, Yang Mi asked softly,""Honey, why don't I ask my friend to contact other distribution companies?”
"There's no need to go through so much trouble." Zhang Yang said," They are not the only group in the Flame Shadow distribution department. I have checked before. They have a total of four groups, and each group is competing with each other." Yan Tao was unwilling to watch the film, but that did not mean that the other team leaders were unwilling to watch it as well.”
"I'll listen to you. Then I'll try the other groups.”Yang Mi nodded.
Just like that, the two of them didn't leave Flame Shadow Corporation and directly went to Team Three of the distribution department. Normally speaking, producers who wanted to release the film couldn't go directly to the team leader. They had to register downstairs and then let the team members of each group be responsible for receiving them. When the team members felt that the film was very good, they would hand it over to the team leader for decision.
However, Zhang Yang and Yang Mi had just come out from Team 2. The staff in the office knew Yang Mi, so no one stopped them. Zhang Yang went straight to the office door of Team 3's leader and knocked on it.
"Enter!" Two seconds later, the voice came from the office.
Zhang Yang pushed open the office door and walked in with Yang Mi.
