185. "Chinese Kung Fu"(1/2)

Xu Shi didn't expect that so many scenic spots would find him, but they were all not very famous scenic spots, and the number of tourists would not be too large, just to increase traffic.

After all, those scenic spots with a lot of tourists don’t need Xu Shi to help attract traffic and advertise.

In fact, there are some precedents in this model now, but it has not been popularized yet. Some venues used in variety shows will be visited by some tourists, bringing a good number of tourists.

The traffic brought to Sun Tu's island by the last "Hacker" also proved that this is feasible. Some scenic spots seeking breakthroughs will naturally focus on this, and Xu Shi is of course the best choice.

Xu Shi arranged the things in the crew for a while and rushed back to the company. He still needed to choose which scenic spot to choose.

After all, no matter what, you still need to consider shooting needs and you cannot just be bottomless for money.

After all, the quality of TV series is the foundation. As long as the quality is good, I believe there will be a steady stream of sponsorships in the future.

"This is the intentional quotation of these scenic spots. If the bid is made public, it will increase a lot." Xu Mei handed some documents to Xu Shi.

Xu Shi looked through it carefully, and suddenly stopped on a letter of intention. Xu Mei also stretched out her head and looked at it, then said: "The quotation for Leshan Giant Buddha is quite good, at least it is considered to be a top-notch among these scenic spots.

And when they came to talk last time, they also had the intention to raise the price.”

Xu Shi said in his heart: "Is there any will in the dark?"

After a while of being stunned, Xu Shi said to Xu Mei: "If nothing unexpected happens, choose this Leshan Giant Buddha. This scenic spot is very suitable for our shooting requirements, but if you can get more sponsorship fees, you will need a little more."

Although Xu Shi was already inclined to the Leshan Giant Buddha in his heart, he would not be unable to get along with the money.

"What should I do with other scenic spots? Refuse directly? It's not good to do this." According to Xu Mei's meaning, it should be a public bidding so that the benefits can be maximized.

Xu Shi thought for a while and said, "How about this? Do you want to do a secret photo and not open bidding, which will satisfy most people.

Anyway, no one knows the bidding of others. At that time, as long as the price given by Leshan Giant Buddha is not low, then choose them."

Xu Shi was also considering the mood of others. Otherwise, if they came to send money from thousands of miles away, it would be a bit unreasonable if you didn’t even give them a chance.

Although this was decided in advance, at least everyone is more beautiful in appearance, and they don’t know the specific price.

"It's not bad, and it can also reduce the smell of gunpowder." Xu Mei didn't say much when she saw that Xu Shi had made a decision.

Xu Mei then suggested: "You said, can we divide these projects into several more places, such as scenic spots, resort areas, and even scenic spots, so that we can increase our income."

Now Xu Mei has completely transformed into a profitable businessman, and everything is mainly based on the interests of the company.

Xu Shi was also a little moved at first, but he quickly rejected the tempting proposal.

"Although this can increase income, it will cause a bad impact, and even the shooting effect will become worse.

Moreover, many scenes must be filmed in Hengdian, or near Hengdian. There are many places where you need to use a large number of extras and Hengdian scenes.

After all, those places are scenic spots, and problems are likely to occur at that time. Once problems arise, it will take a lot of time to solve them.

Also, there are too many locations and the preparation work needs to be increased a lot, so there is no time left.

It is basically certain that it is delayed in shooting progress. Now we can only minimize these unnecessary time waste, and even reducing some income for this is acceptable.

Also, after filming this TV series, our company's main goal is to focus on the movies, and we cannot waste too long on it."

Xu Shi gave enough reasons, so Xu Mei did not object anymore.

Soon, we informed the specific situation of each scenic spot, and everyone started to prepare.

But this time, everyone is trying the waters, and they won’t really invest too much. After all, although there is a precedent for "paradise", movies and TV series are still somewhat different.

Sun Tu originally wanted to find a relationship to see if he could do something secretly, but Xu Shi tactfully turned it off, so he had to honestly participate in the bidding.

Sun Tu really regrets it now. After all, those scenic spots have not tasted the sweetness, but he has already made great gains from it, so he wants to reach a cooperation with Xu Shi even more.

If I had been a few days in advance, or even an hour in advance, maybe there would be no such thing. Xu Shidu had to agree at that time, but it was because of a phone call that the matter became like this now.

And judging from Xu Shi's appearance, he probably doesn't really think about his side.

Sun Tu also knew that Xu Shi’s attention to shooting effects could not be solved by giving more money. Of course, if Sun Tu could get a price that Xu Shi could not refuse, then everything could still be negotiated.

Even if you customize a TV series for them, it won’t work, it depends on whether the money can be done.

On this day, Xu Shi gathered everyone together, and then there was no unnecessary nonsense. He just said a few words and started.

The rules this time are also very simple, that is, each company stuffs its own quote into a closed box, and then the final count is made by Jingwumen.

The auction speed is very fast, after all, there is not much to do. It is just a bid for a project, and each company only needs to pay a price.

An hour later, Xu Shi gave the final result and announced that Leshan Giant Buddha had won the auction.

The quote from Leshan Giant Buddha this time was also not low, eight million, which was one million less than the highest nine million.

This price is already very high, and coupled with the situation of Leshan Buddha in the original script, Xu Shi made the choice.

The person in charge of Leshan Giant Buddha showed a happy expression on his face. He didn't expect that they won the election at first.

However, they also spent a lot of money this time. Although the scenic spots they came to this time were not famous, the Leshan Giant Buddha did not have much competitiveness here.

This time they spent a lot of money, but even so, they didn't have confidence when they came.

But the accident came so quickly and so caught off guard.

"Director Zhang, congratulations. It seems that you have invested a lot of money this time. How much do you bid?" someone asked.

Apart from Sun Tu, many people in the scenic spots were not disappointed. They came here this time to try the waters, and even if they didn't succeed, there was no big problem.

Director Zhang heard the inquiry from these people and said with a smile: "Of course I spent a lot of money and almost threw my belongings into it, but I also want to thank you for your mercy."

Director Zhang didn't say how much the specific amount was. When he was going to the bathroom just now, someone told him not to disclose the specific amount.

At that time, he had some speculations. Now it seems that this is true. His quotation is definitely not the highest. It is only for some reasons that they placed the location in the Leshan Giant Buddha.

Knowing this situation, Director Zhang is certainly not stupid and will not tell everyone how much he paid.

Or it would be to find trouble for yourself.

When he officially signed a contract with Jingwu Sect, he also confirmed the truth from Xu Shi's mouth.

"Director Zhang, your bid this time is not too high, but because your scenic spot meets our TV series shooting requirements, you will eventually choose you. I also hope that your scenic spot will not say the final quotation. Even if you want to tell the public, the quotation cannot be less than 10 million." Xu Shi said.

Director Zhang nodded quickly and said, "Of course, we won't ask for trouble for ourselves. By the way, Mr. Xu, when can we shoot? Can we read the specific script?"

These people are also very determined and bid for eight million without knowing the script. However, this is normal. After all, there is a precedent before. Although this precedent cannot bring them much confidence, at least there is one.

Xu Shi smiled and said, "When will it be convenient for you? We can do it anytime. As for the plot over there, we have a preliminary plan. I will show you later. If you feel that there are some places that are not suitable, we can also discuss it."

Xu Shi's attitude can be said to be very good. Director Zhang said with satisfaction: "We can do it after the 11th day of the year. We can completely close it for a period of time and take photos for you."

It is not difficult to see from here that the number of tourists from Leshan Giant Buddha is now, otherwise it would not have been specifically closed for a period of time for Xu Shi and the others to take pictures.

In fact, this is normal. Although Leshan Giant Buddha is the largest Buddha statue in the country, the promotional and other attractions are not enough to attract too many people, and most of them are locals.

Xu Shi nodded and said, "Okay, it's mid-October. We'll discuss the specific time."

Just at this time, the specific script has been brought over, which Xu Shi has written specifically in the past two days.

In the original script, Xu Shike did not directly use the name of Leshan Buddha. According to his ideas, he wanted to see if Wang Feiyun and others could add something from it. However, it was obvious that they did not come up with a better plot.

Director Zhang quickly picked up the script and started reading it, and then the surprise in his eyes continued to burst out.

"Water floods the big Buddha's knees, and fire burns Lingyun Cave!"

Director Zhang was instantly attracted by these two sentences, which could be used as their promotional slogan for Leshan Giant Buddha after the TV series was released.

After looking at the content inside, Director Zhang was even more surprised. He had already started thinking about how to add the Leshan Giant Buddha project according to this script.

Lingyun Cave must be done, and this Fire Kirin also needs to be made, and you can also make some plots in it to make people feel involved.

It is the setting of this Fire Kirin that has already made Director Zhang very satisfied. Such a setting can add a new attraction to their scenic spot, which is all money.

"Director Zhang, how about it? Are you still satisfied?" Xu Shi asked with a smile.

In fact, there is no need to ask about this at all. Director Zhang's performance is enough to prove everything.

Director Zhang reluctantly looked away from the script, and his eyes were filled with amazement when he looked at Xu Shi.

"Mr. Xu, I have heard that you are a screenwriter genius, but it was beyond my expectations. With this script, our sponsorship has been completely restored." Director Zhang exclaimed.

The screenwriters of the previous two movies were Xu Shi, so netizens on the Internet were completely convinced by Xu Shi's screenwriter skills.

Before Xu Shi could speak, Director Zhang said again: "In this way, we can be closed on October 10th, and then we can take pictures. Do you see if this time is OK?"

Now he can't wait to make sure the time is settled.

Xu Shi smiled and said, "Don't hurry up for the time being. It's better not to set the time so hard. There are still many things to prepare, and we also need to take a look at some of your situations to facilitate the design of fighting scenes.

Director Zhang should also know that our crew’s fighting scene requirements are relatively high, and I hope to help with safety measures at that time.”

Director Zhang hurriedly said: "These are what we should do. The better the TV series is filmed, the more beneficial it will be for us. Mr. Xu's professional attitude really makes me feel a little ashamed."

He first praised Xu Shi, and then he asked in confusion: "Has Mr. Xu been to our side? Then why are you so familiar with our Leshan Giant Buddha, even knowing that there is a cave behind the top of our mountain?"

In the script, Lingyun Cave is naturally the cave on the top of their mountain. He thought of this as soon as he saw the script.

Director Zhang originally thought that Xu Shi had already been to Leshan Giant Buddha and had a certain understanding of Leshan Giant Buddha to have such a script, but after listening to what Xu Shi just said, it seems that he knows it very well.

Xu Shi also had his own explanation for this and said with a smile: "That's right. When I was following my master to learn art, I hiked through many places in China and stayed at the Leshan Giant Buddha for a while, so I still understood a little, but I was not very clear about many places, so I would like to know more about it."

"So that's the case. Then I'll go and prepare for it." Director Zhang nodded as if he understood.

Next, Xu Shi had a specific talk with Director Zhang, and then Director Zhang left and went back to prepare.

Xu Shi is also preparing to go back and start shooting, and also gather the scenes of the Leshan Giant Buddha together. These still need to be adjusted and cannot delay the shooting plan of other scenes.
