Chapter 162 Boss Cai calls
Two or three months ago, Zhang Yuan saved the mobile phone number of Cai Yinong, the owner of Sugar Man Film and Television, during that encounter at the airport.
Now that her name appeared on the caller ID of the mobile phone, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but laugh.
"You are smiling so happily. Did your girlfriend call you?" Upon seeing this, Brother Qian immediately said: "Do you want me to avoid it and go out for a walk at night?"
Brother Qian I was thoughtful enough to make room for his passion.
He thought it was Cheng Hao who visited last time, so he reacted this way.
“It’s a woman, but it’s not this kind of relationship.”
Can Zhang Yuan not be happy?
The big fish takes the bait, it must be happy!
In fact, according to his original plan, he borrowed money from Fatty Zhao, took advantage of the situation from Sugar Man, and combined the two to create better opportunities for himself.
After all, a newcomer like him, who has no power, no power and no background, can only rely on the power of others to make profits for himself.
The original process was to get money from Zhao Decai, buy the copyright, take the initiative to find Sugar Man, and negotiate with him about filming and production matters as an investor representative.
But everyone knows that there was a "Xiao accident" on the road...
He met Cai Yinong in advance, which triggered a series of changes later.
As a result, the biggest change is that the initiative has changed hands!
According to the original plan, he had to find a sugar man and hurriedly beg them to film.
But now, it's the complete opposite, Cai Yinong has come to find him!
He has been waiting recently for Boss Cai to contact him.
Now, the wait is finally here!
He adjusted his state and assumed a cynical, desireless attitude.
He also deliberately waited for a long time after his cell phone rang before lazily picking it up.
"Hello, hello, where are you?"
"Hello, Zhang Yuan, I am Cai Yinong."
"Ah, Cai Yinong...you Who is it? "
Cai Yinong was already holding back his anger, but now that he heard the other party pretending not to know him, his flames were even more intense!
But he is the boss after all, she suppressed her temper and said angrily.
“We met at the Imperial Airport, do you remember?”
“Oh, it’s Boss Cai from Sugar Man Film and Television. Look at my memory!”
< br>Pretend!
This turtle grandson is still pretending to me, right?
Cai Yinong was very depressed after returning from Baodao, and even remained depressed for a long time afterwards.
Since her debut, there has never been anything she wanted to do that she couldn't do.
In 1997, she roped in Li Yapeng, Wu Qianlian, and her friend Li Guoli to direct "Beijing-Hong Kong Love Line". However, investors who were just playing for fun felt that the return period was too long, so they not only withdrew their capital , and also shut down the film and television company.
In this case, Cai Yinong not only took over the company, but also took Li Guoli to reorganize the company and invest by himself. This company later became Sugar Man Film and Television.
She has survived such a difficult situation, and it has been smooth sailing ever since, as if God had helped her.
She had never seen anyone who could make her feel weak.
Zhang Yuan: Hey, you saw it today!
Being rejected at the airport, and being surrounded by gangsters when we arrived at Treasure Island, would make anyone angry.
She waited patiently and after careful investigation, she came to a result that she couldn't believe at all.
The "mastermind" behind all this turned out to be the polite and polite young actor he met at the airport!
You...
When Boss Cai got the news, he felt as if someone had slapped him in the face.
You can think about how much psychological harm it would do to a thirty-year-old female boss to be forced into a corner, woo woo woo...
How could she have thought that one day she would He was actually put on a show by a young actor.
According to the thinking of ordinary successful people, I am afraid that at this time, I would like to skin Zhang Yuan and drink his blood, and tear his bones and eat his flesh.
But Boss Cai is a little different.
She is as confident as the bearded man.
But the difference is that Big Beard is confident in his ability to manipulate others, so he ultimately failed in this matter.
Cai Yinong was extremely confident in her ability to choose people, so she ultimately failed in this matter.
Boss Cai is a casting director, so she believes that she is a genius in recognizing people, which has become her greatest strength and greatest weakness.
Before meeting Zhang Yuan at the airport, she had already paid attention to the young actor, otherwise she would not have taken the initiative to chat.
After the incident of buying and selling copyright, Boss Cai was of course very angry, but at the same time he also had another idea.
“He can make me so embarrassed.”
“Then if he is taken under my command, wouldn’t he be able to make my opponent even more embarrassed!”
“What a talent!”
"And the talent is not only in the performance."
"Sure enough, my vision is right!"
Boss Cai thought about it over and over and formed a logical closed loop.
The person I like must be great.
So even though she was angry, she still had the patience to talk to Zhang Yuan. This was the reason.
"I won't mention what happened before, let's just talk about the key points."
Seeing Zhang Yuan pretending to be stupid, Cai Yinong wisely stopped mentioning his "little tricks" at that time.
"Now the copyright for the adaptation of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is in your hands."
"Mr. Cai, you misunderstood two things?"
"What do you say? ?" Cai Yinong asked doubtfully.
"First of all, I bought the copyright for investors. I only hold some shares. After all, I am helping investors do things." Zhang Yuan quickly put all the blame on Fatty Zhao.
Mr. Cai bit his lip when he heard this.
Which investor is so lucky to find him to help with things.
“Secondly, the copyright we have obtained is not only for "Legend of Sword and Fairy", but also for "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" and "Xuanyuan Sword: Traces of the Sky"."
Cai Yinong:! ! !
Mr. Cai's heart trembled.
His appetite is bigger than I imagined and heard!
"Hiss...that's not right, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" should only be released in the second generation. How did you buy the copyright of the third generation?"
Mr. Cai discovered something was wrong.
“I bought it in advance, the third generation should be released soon.”
Cai Yinong's eyes flickered, and she was hesitant.
The game has not yet been released, so its reputation is unknown.
But he got it in advance. Is he really so confident?
Cai Yinong kept an eye on it and planned to pay attention to the sales of "Sword and Sword III" in the future.
"Okay, let's put these aside for now. Let's talk about "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" first." Boss Cai raised the topic.
Zhang Yuan on the other end of the phone covered his mouth and chuckled.
I couldn’t help it after all!
"I have always been interested in the production of the TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy". You might as well find a time and let's go out to have a meal and chat alone." Boss Cai extended the invitation sincerely.
"Let's talk about it later. I'm not free recently." Zhang Yuan returned immediately. Cai Yinong's anger is rising!
I praised you for being fat and you got sick, right?
I am so nice and angry, chatting with you regardless of past grudges, and you still have this attitude... Cai Yinong really wants to reach out along the phone line and strangle his neck.
But Zhang Yuan's words immediately extinguished her anger.
"I'm going to shoot a movie directed by Feng Xiaogang soon. Please contact me again after a while."
Cai Yinong was silent for a long time before agreeing.
After hanging up the phone, Mr. Cai tapped his fingers on his desk and thought for a long time.
"He can take on Feng Xiaogang's drama!"
Not to mention the current Sugar Man, even the Sugar Man in his heyday in later generations is just one of the big guys in the TV drama industry.
But Feng Xiaogang is a representative figure in the entire Chinese film and television industry, and Mr. Cai knows that he cannot compare with him.
“It seems we have to find a chance to chat with him.”
Mr. Cai waved his fist vigorously: "If you have a chance, you must be my subordinate!"
"Hey, that's not right!"
She suddenly reacted: "He said just now that he should let me I’ll contact him later, not him.”
“This guy is so big.”
"It has character, I like it." After a while, she said to herself with a smile.
On the other side, Zhang Yuan almost smiled!
"Okay, the initiative is still completely in my hands."
"And relying on Director Feng to pretend, it should give her a big shock."
< br>“Everything is according to plan.”
Zhang Yuan happily lay down on the deck chair in the yard.
What he wants to get from the copyright of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is not only objective income, but also the opportunity to join the crew of "Sword and Fairy".
“I have played too many supporting roles, it’s time for me to play the leading role again!”
What he wants is another chance to become the leading star of a big production.
Although he has gone through a series of operations on the set of "A Chinese Ghost Story", he is indeed not far away from becoming the protagonist.
But essentially, he is still a supporting actor.
But now that we are here at "Sword of Immortality", hehe...
Thinking of this, he turned to look at Yu Qian.
"Brother Qian, do you have a computer in your house?"
"Yes, do you want to use it?"
"Well, lend me a hand."
"Okay."
The computer monitors in those days were all CRT monitors, which were "big butts" using picture tubes.
Zhang Yuan opened Brother Qian's computer and curiously clicked into the folder named "Study Materials".
"Ran Muto, Ai Iijima... are really retro."
"That's right. At this point in time, these people are not only not retro, but also trend-setters of the times."
He closed the folder and opened QQ.
In the contact list, a user with a cat avatar was found.
【An Ran Ruofeng】
Zhang Yuan thought attentively: "An Ran Ruofeng..."
This is Liu Qianqian's real name, but after her parents divorced, Liu Xiaoli completely changed her name.
“It seems that although she doesn’t mention it, she still misses her dad.”
Why did Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang fall in love at first sight?
In addition to being similar in age, more importantly, they are both single-parent families.
We should be able to understand each other better.
"Is Wang Yuyan here?" This was the first time Zhang Yuan sent QQ to Qianqian.
About five or six minutes later, after Zhang Yuan had finished smoking an entire 1.8-point Zhongnanhai, the familiar beeping sound came from the computer speaker.
“You asked me to add you on QQ, but you kept ignoring me, hum!”
On the other end of the network cable, Liu Qianqian looked back at the door of the room to make sure that her mother was not there, then she clumsily Use "two-finger Zen" to tap the keyboard.
She only recently understood QQ, and the only person she often chats with is Shu Chang.
"I've been on the set recently and don't have a computer. Now that I've just gotten home, I found a machine to send you a message."
"Okay." After more than a minute, Sissi typed out These three words come.
If she slows down, Zhang Yuan will have time to review Wu Teng Lan.
"Do you usually play computer games?"
"There is a very popular game on the Internet recently called "Legend of Sword and Fairy", do you know?"
Liu Qianqian had just finished halfway through her first sentence when Zhang Yuan called her second sentence, overwhelming her "binary" input method.
"My mother doesn't let me play games." Sissi replied distressedly.
In those days, games were called "electronic XXX", and playing games was considered by parents to be a form of deviance, not doing their job properly, and even a mental illness.
"This game will be adapted into a TV series soon, so tell your mother that you are doing your homework in advance to prepare for the audition."
"Ah, what an excuse!" Sissi His eyes were shining brightly, thinking that Zhang Yuan was still smart.
She simply thought that Zhang Yuan was really letting her play games.
“Remember to buy the genuine version.” Zhang Yuan thought, if the female lead is found playing pirated disks in the future, she will not be scolded to death.
“Yeah, I know.”
“Zhang Yuan, I’ve been reading a book recently, do you want to read it together?”
“What book, Mr. Jin? ”
"No, it's Harry Potter. Go watch it quickly. We can chat together after watching it."
Zhang Yuan knew that this man had a habit of reading.
Later, Sissi was chased by paparazzi and found that she was meeting a man in a hotel.
The paparazzi get excited when something like this happens, and they must follow and take pictures.
If you can take a photo of the opening, it will directly explode the entertainment section.
As a result, after filming for most of the night, I found this person sitting in the hotel lobby discussing the "Tao Te Ching" for several hours... The paparazzi wanted to slap him.
"Okay, I'll go and watch it right away." Zhang Yuan had watched the entire Harry Potter series in his previous life, but in order not to be disappointed, he agreed immediately.
"Yeah, let me tell you... Mom asked me to eat, and we'll talk later." Halfway through the call, Sissi heard her mother's voice and replied hurriedly.
After saying that, this person’s profile picture turned gray, and Zhang Yuan fell into silence in front of the computer.
He turned to look at the small courtyard and found that Brother Qian was not there, so he opened the "Study Materials" folders...
The next day, in the afternoon, he came to the set of "Cell Phone" on time.
