Chapter 436
It will be much easier if all departments coordinate and cooperate in the future.
only……
Wang Cheng then found himself in another problem.
The Grand Secretary has now agreed to film "The Battle at Lake Changjin" as a tribute drama.
But Wang Cheng hadn't even had a chance to bring up Su Yu's request yet.
Twenty percent of the box office revenue.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
The Grand Secretary closed the script.
He looked up at the crowd.
He asked, "Everyone has seen the script just now. What are your thoughts?"
Hear the words.
Everyone shook their heads.
"I have no opinion!"
"I don't have any objection either."
"This must be the best script I've ever seen as a tribute."
……
soon.
The script for "Changjin Lake," a tribute piece, received the support of the vast majority of people present.
But just as the Grand Secretary was about to make the final decision...
Conference table.
corner.
A person shakily raised their hands.
"This... I mean..."
"What if...I have a problem with that...?"
After saying that, Wang Cheng wanted to slap himself.
"Old Wang, are you crazy?"
The military region leader kicked Wang Cheng hard under the table.
The Grand Secretary finally got it approved.
What the hell do you think?
"Say!"
The Grand Secretary ignored their entanglement.
He spoke directly.
"Well... regarding this filming, Xiao Su made a few requests..."
"Moreover, his attitude was very firm; if his requests were not granted, he would not authorize the filming of the 'Changjin Lake' script."
As soon as Wang Cheng said this...
Everyone burst into harsh laughter.
"hehe!"
"Old Wang, who are you looking for?"
"Or is it that your State Administration of Culture and Entertainment has lost its weight in the entertainment industry?"
"A screenwriter dares to make demands of us."
Upon hearing this, Wang Cheng could only sigh.
If it were someone else, he would still have the confidence to try and persuade them.
But unfortunately, this person is Su Yu.
He is the well-known sixth-ranked streamer in the live streaming industry.
He couldn't persuade him.
Perhaps, during the process of persuading...
Instead, Su Yu betrayed him and used his tricks against him.
Therefore, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and try to persuade the Grand Secretary.
Yahoo~
"What requests did Xiao Su make?"
however.
Just as Wang Cheng was facing death without fear.
The Grand Secretary spoke again.
Get things back on track.
"The first requirement is that the director decides."
Everyone: "..."
What a boastful tone!
"Who is he?"
"How dare you say such things!"
"Let him decide the director? That's ridiculous."
"What if the director he chooses isn't good enough?"
"Isn't this treating a celebratory drama like a child's play?"
"Old Wang, if this guy wants to play house, you two should do it in private. Don't waste everyone's time."
Upon hearing the criticism from his colleagues, Wang Cheng, who had initially felt somewhat embarrassed, immediately switched sides and stood on the same side as Su Yu.
"Your Excellency, once Su Yu has decided on the director, we will be notified to review the selection."
"At that time, our Cultural and Entertainment Bureau and the Military Region will review it first. If there are no problems, we will send it to you for final confirmation."
Wang Cheng tried his best to find a solution that was acceptable to both sides within the scope of reconciliation.
"Once Xiao Su finalizes the director list, you can review it yourselves; you don't need to show it to me."
The Grand Secretary waved his hand, which was considered as agreeing to Su Yu's first request.
"Any more?"
Wang Cheng hadn't even had a chance to be happy for long.
Hearing the Grand Secretary's words, he became nervous again.
"Have!"
Next.
Wang Cheng then relayed the key requirements that Su Yu had raised.
"In order to be as historically accurate as possible, we need to mobilize old tanks and other equipment from various military regions."
"can!"
"Actors must undergo a period of intensive training."
"The director should do it."
"The special effects company..."
at last.
Now for the main event.
Wang Cheng took a deep breath.
"Your Excellency, Su Yu also said that he wants 20% of the film's box office revenue."
The last few words.
Wang Cheng's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzz.
But in the quiet meeting room.
It was still very jarring.
"How many?"
"Twenty percent? Did I hear that right?"
"A movie's box office is at most two or three hundred million, is it possible that he would take 20%?"
"Exactly, just the demands he makes would easily cost a lot of money to fulfill, and now he wants such a high share of the box office revenue."
"Are they treating us like some kind of innocent victim?!"
Compared to the anger of others.
The Grand Secretary appeared much calmer.
After a while.
The Grand Secretary slowly spoke, "What gives Xiao Su the confidence to make this request?"
Wang Cheng admired the Grand Secretary even more.
They always see things so incisively.
Get straight to the point.
Wang Cheng quickly said, "Xiao Su said... the Changjin Lake box office will break the Chinese box office record and become the box office champion."
"hehe."
"What's so great about being a box office champion!"
"It's just a few hundred million."
……
He was repeatedly ridiculed.
Wang Cheng's initial embarrassment towards these people had long since turned into anger.
Upon hearing this, he immediately retorted, "Xiao Su said that the box office for Changjin Lake will reach 5 billion!"
"what?"
"Five billion?"
"Hahaha, what time is it now?"
"It's only a little past three in the afternoon."
"No wonder Old Wang started talking nonsense, he's daydreaming, hahaha."
China has a population of 14 billion.
Let's calculate based on a ticket price of thirty yuan.
Five billion in box office revenue means that one in four people has to contribute a movie ticket.
"How can this be?!"
"LOL."
"Old Wang, kids don't know how to keep their mouths shut. You're so old, why are you still fooling around with them?"
Many people laughed and mocked.
The State Administration of Culture and Tourism and the military region stole the show in this year's Army Day planning.
Therefore, many leaders in other departments were more or less jealous.
This is a perfect opportunity to thoroughly mock Wang Cheng.
Wang Cheng initially thought it was impossible as well.
However, based on his understanding of Su Yu...
This rascal may be a bit unserious most of the time, but he's actually very reliable when it comes to serious matters.
"Your Excellency..."
Wang Cheng wanted to try and win it over.
however.
Taking this opportunity, Long Zhentian immediately interrupted Wang Cheng.
"Director Wang, in the future, we should be more careful about making unreliable requests like this. Don't just agree to everything people ask for. People who don't know better might think that Director Wang has either lost his mind or is... showing favoritism."
The secretaries responsible for taking meeting minutes, after listening to the leaders' heated debate...
His lips twitched incessantly.
Outsiders' perception of power struggles between departments: exchanging evidence of corruption and bribery!
In reality: They were being sarcastic and sarcastic, like elementary school kids arguing!
Just as the group was arguing incessantly...
The Grand Secretary finally spoke.
