Chapter 67 Hesitation Means Agreement
Gong Yu's eyes lit up immediately, and she began to imagine the scene of the TV series becoming a huge hit as soon as it aired.
If iQiyi buys the rights to broadcast this show, the company's valuation will definitely skyrocket. It might even be able to suppress Tencent for a while. It's definitely a stock with great potential!
He rubbed his hands together excitedly and blurted out, "Wow! Boss Han, what you said makes so much sense! I have to support you completely!"
Although Hou Hongliang was also a little tempted, he knew Brother Hu too well; once Lao Hu made up his mind, it was very difficult to negotiate.
Han Ziming could see through Hou Hongliang's hesitation at a glance, but hesitation did not mean agreement.
To put it bluntly, it's just that we don't have enough money!
So he gave Hou Hongliang a way out.
"President Hou, you've known Brother Hu for so long, you should advise him. Going abroad for further studies isn't that easy. It's better for him to come and act in movies."
If you can handle this, Mozi Films will absolutely not interfere with the casting process afterwards!
Hou Hongliang's eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.
The drama "The Story of Minglan" needs a lot of actors, and there is a lot of room for maneuver in the process!
He assured him confidently, "Boss Han, you can rest assured! Leave this to me. I thank you on behalf of Lao Hu, and I'll have good news for you!"
He was calculating in his mind: if he could get Brother Hu to come, Noon would make a fortune this time.
He couldn't help but wonder if this kid had his eye on Lao Hu. With so many acting slots, he could use them to gain a lot of favors.
Moreover, 30 million was reserved for the male lead's salary. Hu Ge is a minor male lead role, and the total number of episodes is not many. This treatment is not low!
Furthermore, with Hu Jintao not going abroad, Cai must be the happiest. With the two of them working together, how could they not keep Hu Jintao?
Unfortunately, he didn't know,
Han Ziming is also very shrewd!
He remembered that in his previous life, Feng Shaofeng was the male lead in this drama, and it was rumored to have sold for 1 billion yuan. If Brother Hu were to act in it, it wouldn't be unreasonable for him to earn an extra 200 million yuan, right?
Originally, it would have been great if each company had invested 100 million yuan and the investment had been split equally. But now, Mozi Films accounts for 60% of the investment.
If the entire series can really earn 12 billion, after deducting costs, Mozi Films can net about 600 million!
Han Ziming became increasingly smug, feeling like he had won by a landslide!
This is more important than ruining Zhao and Feng's deal. It's a huge business worth hundreds of millions, and we have to take it no matter what!
That's why he generously conceded and didn't get involved in the casting process.
Once the supporting roles are finalized, we can poach Zhu Yilong; that would be even more worthwhile.
Han Ziming nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay! When we have the celebration party for 'The Beginning', we'll officially announce our collaboration on 'The Story of Ming Lan'. Let's treat it as a second collaboration and give the new drama a good warm-up."
Mr. Gong, please bring plenty of reporters and give it a good publicity stunt. The last actress among the post-85 generation to work with Hu Ge—won't that generate a huge buzz and immediately become a trending topic?
What do you guys think?
Han Ziming finished speaking in one breath.
The other three are still processing this information.
Li Feng was the first to react, excitedly shouting, "Boss, that was brilliant! The netizens are going to go crazy, their expectations are off the charts!"
Gong Yu snapped out of her daze and couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! Boss Han, you're a marketing genius! I wholeheartedly support this plan!"
Hou Hongliang couldn't sit still any longer and said, "No problem! I'll arrange it right away after we finish talking!"
Han Ziming said with a smile.
"Mr. Hou, we're waiting for your good news!"
Hou Hongliang replied.
"I'll announce it in the group once I've confirmed it."
After saying that, they hung up the phone.
Li Feng gave Han Ziming a thumbs-up and said admiringly, "Boss, you're amazing! I was only thinking about the paycheck at first, I never imagined their collaboration would generate such a huge buzz!"
Han Ziming waved his hand: "You've done a great job too. With this investment ratio, you're sure to make a fortune in the future!"
Li Feng suddenly realized something and asked with a puzzled look, "Boss, if we don't get involved in the casting, aren't we losing out big time? There's a lot more to this than meets the eye!"
Han Ziming smiled:
"Our company currently only has three artists: Ruonan, Xiao Wang, and Pei Yao, all of whom have work commitments."
There's no need to micromanage everything. We need to give others a chance, right? Just tell them to be efficient. Besides, with so many films needing investment, can you really manage it all?
Li Feng thought about it and agreed.
I'll have to keep an eye on several movies next year.
Who has time to deal with these trivial matters?
I suddenly remembered what Han Ziming had said about buying a house.
I immediately ran out and grabbed the computer.
I spent a few minutes calculating.
Upon seeing the numbers on the computer, I immediately complained:
"Boss! We only have 40 million left out of the 300 million. Jinmao Mansion is currently 150,000 yuan per square meter, and the smallest unit is 280 square meters, which would cost more than 40 million. It would be very risky to spend it all. How about we rent it out for now?"
Han Ziming had no objections.
After all, company matters are more important.
"Okay, let's rent two apartments."
Li Feng couldn't help but say, "Got it! Boss, why don't you hire an assistant to handle these things specifically?"
Han Ziming thought for a moment and said, "General Manager Zhao said he would help me recruit, but after thinking about it, I said no need, I can handle these things myself."
Li Feng said helplessly, "Okay. By the way, when I went out to get my computer just now, my colleague from the publicity department said that the Weibo post about the movie ticket giveaway has already been released."
Han Ziming waved his hand:
"Okay, you can go ahead and get busy."
Li Feng still had things to prepare for the movie premiere, so he turned around and left.
Han Ziming picked up his phone and opened Weibo.
Sure enough, I saw the giveaway announcement from Mozi Films' official Weibo account. After checking it and seeing no problems, I reposted it with my own account and even commented:
"Wishing 'The Beginning' reaches 2 billion views! I've also arranged a giveaway of 10,000 movie tickets for everyone. Let's go see 'Take My Brother Away' this weekend!"
After sending the message, I tossed my phone aside and ignored it.
Unbeknownst to him, a girl had specifically followed him on social media and immediately commented upon seeing the message: "Is this considered a perk? A picture of your abs would be more practical!"
Soon, a large group of girls who watched "The Beginning" went crazy with likes and comments, after all, Han Ziming had appeared in interviews.
Such a handsome guy, it's really going too far to keep him hidden. Judging from this comment, he seems to be in good health?
Well, sorry, ladies, we don't need that little bit of traffic or movie ticket money, so the girls frantically left comments and bumped the post.
Unfortunately, Han Ziming logged out of the Weibo app after posting the article and was unaware of this.

In fact, Han Ziming still had some impression of it.
After all, the Legend of Sword and Fairy series still leaves a deep impression on people born in the 80s and 90s.
However, he remembered that in his previous life in 2017, Tang Ren didn't have a good time. He relied on the entire year to "make a living" from the TV series "Secret of the Three Kingdoms".
In the end, it was thanks to Tencent Video spending 4 million yuan to acquire the copyright that Tangren didn't end up with nothing.
Speaking of which, it's worth gossiping about, as some netizens say that the decline of Tangren began with Jiang Jinfu.
