Cheng Hao was talking in the private room upstairs, while Zhang Yuan was sitting in the corner downstairs.
"Zi Liu..."
A sip of chrysanthemum tea can improve eyesight and relieve inflammation.
Although he has nothing to be angry about, he took care of himself last night.
The process is neither good nor simple, but he actually understands that the five elements restrain each other, using water to restrain fire, and he is not willing to be outdone.
Click...
The door to the private room upstairs was opened, and Cheng Hao and the two men stepped out of the room with a smile on their faces.
Zhang Yuan glanced at her, but could detect a hint of hypocrisy and politeness in her smile.
"It seems that we haven't reached an agreement." Zhang Yuan took out another empty teacup, poured a cup, and pushed it to the other side of the table.
“Contact me later.”
"Well, we'll discuss it in detail after everything is finalized."
Both parties looked at each other in a calm and cheerful manner, and the meaning behind their words seemed to be that it was time to sign the contract.
This is the hypocritical dignity of adults.
"Good sister." Zhang Yuan waved to her: "This way."
"Come, drink some chrysanthemum tea to relieve the heat."
"How do you know I'm angry?" Cheng Hao picked up the cup of tea he had poured in advance.
"Victory and defeat are common matters for military strategists." Zhang Yuan consoled him.
"Yes." Cheng Hao sighed.
The conversation just now was not very good. She was quite satisfied with the script, but the two people opposite seemed to have a different opinion of her.
Celebrities are just like ordinary people.
Just like on a blind date, there will definitely be a gap between looking at photos and meeting in person.
Of course, the difference between Cheng Hao and Cheng Hao is not in appearance, but in personality.
Compared with the witty and charming appearance that often appears in her works, she is actually quite mature and quiet, not so sunny and cheerful.
As for the role, in addition to acting skills, there are also requirements for matching with the actors.
Let’s take Liu Qianqian as an example. Why was it that when she filmed her first movie "The Golden Family", she didn’t know anything and took a temporary acting class, but she was able to portray the character’s image of a shrewd princess? Seventy-seven or eighty-eight.
Because this character is 70% similar to her, and both have the foundation of a young lady.
As You Jianhong, the producer of "Golden Dust" said, she is born with nobility.
It is very important that the actor matches the aura of the character.
"Forget it, it's worth it just to see you alone." Cheng Hao smiled, holding his chin with one hand, and looked at him affectionately.
"Good sister, I have a request." Zhang Yuan held her hand and said softly with a smile.
"No, it's very painful." Cheng Hao immediately refused.
Zhang Yuan:? ? ?
"Who do you think I am!" He slapped the table.
“Let’s talk about this when we get back.”
Cheng Haonen’s pretty face immediately turned red: “Then, then, tell me, what’s the matter.”
"Ahem." He coughed a few times: "What I want to say is."
"Can you help me make an appointment with the screenwriter just now? I want to talk to him alone."
"He?" Cheng Hao was confused again.
But she was used to seeing Zhang Yuan act strangely, so she only reacted for a few seconds before speaking.
“Okay, I get it.”
The next day, in the evening, after seeing off Brother Crow and Taibai Jinxing who were having fun in the Magic City, Zhang Yuan and Cheng Hao came to the teahouse of yesterday again in the evening.
But today, he and Cheng Hao sat in yesterday's private room together.
After sitting for a while, someone was sneaking outside the house, poking his head, and carefully squeezing in someone.
It was the screenwriter yesterday, Yu Zheng, who was recognized by Zhang Yuan at a glance.
"Hello, Teacher Cheng, this is..."
After Yu Zheng entered the room, he first grinned, revealing a row of small broken teeth like corn kernels and more than one centimeter of bright red gums.
Looking at his smile, Zhang Yuan suddenly thought of Liu Qianqian.
Liu Qianxi tends to show her gums when she laughs. This is because her upper lip muscles have a more intense lifting effect than ordinary people, and her teeth are quite neat.
So as long as she doesn't laugh, it won't be a big problem.
Yu Zheng is different. He has tiny teeth and broken teeth. Not to mention laughing, his smile is not very elegant either.
If you want to summarize this person's appearance or demeanor, just one word will suffice.
Ray!
It is quite similar to He Shen created by teacher Wang Gang.
“You are Zhang Yuan!”
“I know you!”
"I have studied a lot of your works, and I am very familiar with you!"
The Yu Zheng at this moment is not the all-powerful Yu Zheng in later generations who caused trouble everywhere and was nicknamed "Dead Girl".
He is just a small screenwriter.
But he is a very ambitious young screenwriter.
The other party reached out his hand, Zhang Yuan stood up and shook it lightly with a smile, and then they sat down together.
Cheng Hao saw that the other party was so enthusiastic about Zhang Yuan, which shows that Zhang Yuan's status in the circle has improved very quickly.
There was a throbbing in her heart. Of course she was happy that her man had made such rapid progress.
“The screenwriter was more enthusiastic when he saw Zhang Yuan than when he met me.”
“Well, he is better than me.”
Just when she thought this The conversation, whose content she didn't know, got off to a good start. When the two of them were very enthusiastic about each other, she keenly noticed that Zhang Yuan rubbed the palm of his hand on his pants, obviously looking very disgusted.
Nonsense, don’t you dislike it?
Zhang Yuan is a straight man, and Cheng Hao knows very well how straight he is.
And the guy opposite... understands everything.
Besides him, the two most evil writers in the circle are Xiaosi.
Not only do the two have similar temperaments, but also similar acting styles, similar work styles, and even similar orientations...
The three of them chatted for a while, and Zhang Yuan used the eagle-burning tactic as usual.
I don’t care if you are in a hurry or not. Anyway, I am not in a hurry. I just won’t get to the point.
When Yu Zheng drank the Nth cup of tea and the leaves in his lungs almost started to float, he couldn't hold it anymore and asked.
"Teacher Zhang Yuan, Teacher Cheng Hao, you two invited me here today because you want to talk about the drama yesterday?"
"To be honest with you two, I I am just a screenwriter and cannot influence the overall situation.”
"I may disappoint you two." This person said with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Why are you dissatisfied and angry?
The reason is simple.
He wrote the book "Fireworks in March" and adapted the script.
However, after the crew was established, he could only be named as a co-screenwriter, and even had to be ranked behind a screenwriter named Chen Tao.
Because this person is not only a senior, but also the chief producer of the film, so Yu Zheng is obviously doing all the work, but he still has the title of chief screenwriter.
Who is this Chen Tao?
Translated by Zhang Jia and Fu Biao in 2002, Ning Jing's "Behind the Truth" was edited by him.
There are also "Crazy Racing" and "Da Shengkui", both of which were later works by this artist.
It is true that he is much older than Yu Zheng.
Then why did Zhang Yuan find Yu Zheng?
Because just this year, a TV series called "The Legend of Jingke" will be released at the end of the year.
And this film will become a turning point in Yu Zheng’s life!
Because of this film, he completely broke up with his "master" Li Huimin.
Li Huimin is not an ordinary person. He directed the classic version of "Longmeng Inn".
There is also "Swordsman" by Xu Guanjie and Jacky Cheung, which is also a masterpiece.
After taking a fancy to Yu Zheng's talent, the great Hong Kong director kept him by his side and asked him to write scripts for his works.
But one thing is that although all those scripts were written by him, almost none of the films had his name on the screenwriter column!
This Li Huimin is indeed too ruthless in doing things, and does not give any benefits.
So, when writing the script of "The Legend of Jing Ke", he secretly applied for the copyright of the work in advance.
This kid has long planned to give "Master" a blow!
Sure enough, Li Huimin named the screenwriter of this drama after his wife Liang Rui.
Yu Zheng took the other party to court with a complaint and complained bitterly that the other party had misappropriated the fruits of his labor.
Looking at this in future generations, it would be extremely ironic. The boy who once slayed dragons eventually became a dragon, and he did the same thing for profit.
"No, no, no, don't worry, what we are going to talk about has nothing to do with that drama." Zhang Yuan replied calmly. "I heard that you and Director Li had a good relationship?"
Yu Zheng's expression froze.
"Hahaha..." Zhang Yuan chuckled: "Are you planning to do something to him?"
"How do you know..." Yu Zheng just spoke, and immediately tightened his grip Shut up, for fear that the other person is trying to trick you.
“I have my own news channels.”
Sweat dropped from Yu Zheng's forehead.
Did this person monitor my home or something happened?
Could it be that the copyright I applied for was leaked?
Yes, yes, this is the only possibility...
Zhang Yuan deliberately kept silent and just drank tea there steadily, letting the other party figure it out.
"What do you want to do?" Screenwriter Yu asked extremely carefully.
"After you left Director Li and joined the current crew, are you satisfied with everything?" Zhang Yuan asked knowingly.
How can I be satisfied!
If you don’t write my name before leaving the master, and if you don’t write my name after leaving the master, then I didn’t leave in vain!
The drama "Legend of Jing Ke" has not yet been released, and Yu Zheng has already planned to go to the court after it is released, so as to use the lawsuit to hype his new drama "Fireworks in March".
When it comes to hype, this guy is indeed a master, even willing to do it himself.
At least this film has his name as a screenwriter, and the hype is good for his reputation.
"Okay, I won't play charades with you anymore." Zhang Yuan's timing was about the same, and the other party's mentality was completely confused, and then he got to the point.
“I quite like your works, and I know what you have been through.”
“But you may also understand how low the screenwriter’s status is in the film and television industry. , basically everyone dares to step on it.”
"Directors, actors, investors, producers, no matter who farts, they all have to bear it."
Yu Zheng tightened his fists under the table. Could he not understand?
“So, if you don’t want to be bossed around, you can’t just be a screenwriter.”
Yu Zheng rolled his eyes: “Could it be that...”
"Yes, I think you have great potential."
"How about we work together to build a new company. I will provide the money, you will contribute the efforts, and we will make it bigger and stronger together to create greater glory."
"With your own company, you are not just a screenwriter."
“Producer, producer, producer... you can do whatever you want.”
“Others can no longer direct you, only you can direct others.”
The cakes Zhang Yuan painted are no longer cooking cakes, they are simply sauce-flavored cakes.
Gudong!
Yu Zheng swallowed, what the other party said came to his heart!
What he wanted, the other party mentioned everything verbatim, it was like a roundworm in his stomach.
All those little thoughts were revealed.
“Are you talking about an investment company or...”
"Film and television production company." Zhang Yuan replied: "If you are interested, we can cooperate."
"And I am usually busy and don't like to manage."
>"Once the new company is established, I will only be responsible for attracting investment, filming, and management. I can leave everything to you."
Thump thump thump... Yu Zheng's heart was beating fast!
His last worry was eliminated.
Of course he wants to have his own company, but he is afraid of becoming a worker for shareholders.
The conditions offered by the other party now meet almost all of my needs.
"You have so much money...I don't doubt what you mean, but a TV series can cost as little as several million, or as much as tens of millions..."
Zhang Yuan raised his eyebrows hand, interrupting him.
"I will take care of the money. I will find investors, but you have to make concessions on the company's shares."
Yu Zheng: ...
Sure enough, there are conditions.
But he was very happy to find the sponsor.
"You can go back and think about it first. After all, it is a bit too exciting to meet for the first time and talk about such a big thing." Zhang Yuan stood up quickly and led Cheng Hao out. Leaving Yu Zheng alone in the private room to think alone.
Pretend to be cool and leave, it’s so exciting!
"Do you really want to start a company with him?" Cheng Hao frowned: "But I feel like you don't like him very much."
Zhang Yuan stood still and took out the leather from his trouser pocket. wallet, and took out a red hundred-dollar bill from the wallet.
"Good sister, do you like this thing?"
"Yes?" Cheng Hao didn't have to pretend in front of him.
“This banknote is obviously dirty, but not everyone loves it.”
"But if you don't like him, wouldn't it be uncomfortable to cooperate with him?" Cheng Hao still didn't understand.
Zhang Yuan smiled and did not answer.
Yu Zheng is a standard villain.
But throughout the dynasties, most of the people above the court were villains.
Not to mention the film and television industry.
Just like what Liu Xianglian said to Baoyu in "A Dream of Red Mansions": "Apart from the two stone lions in your Dongfu who are clean, I'm afraid even the cats and dogs are not clean."
Finding morality in the entertainment industry Model, isn't that the same as looking for He's jade in a manhole, or looking for a yellow-flowered maiden in a hook fence?
Those who are really clean in the entertainment industry are basically out of tune with others, and instead look weird.
Moreover, villains are actually more useful than gentlemen.
A gentleman has no desire and cannot control it.
"Good sister, if this company opens, I will ask you to film the first movie."
"I take it seriously." Cheng Hao smiled and hooked his shoulder.
"Of course, but if an actress wants to be in a show, does she have to talk to her boss...ah."
"I am just a poor little actor, you, the big boss, can do whatever you want. What are you doing?" Cheng Hao kissed him on the cheek charmingly.
"How about we stop waiting to set up a company and do it now..."
A few days later, Zhang Yuan saw off Cheng Hao who came to visit the class.
“Don’t flirt with the actresses on the set, especially those vixens who look innocent.” Before boarding the plane, Cheng helped him tidy up his collar like a good wife and looked after him at the same time. road.
Huh?
Zhang Yuan thought as he walked, looking innocent...it couldn't be Yuan Qiao.
Who else could it be?
She really didn't think much about it if she didn't remind herself.
After returning to the set, I happened to meet Master Xing.
"Zhang Yuan, you are maintaining your condition really well."
After seeing him, Master Xing smiled and patted his shoulder.
“I seem to be in better shape than the past few days, more like a poisonous dog.”
"The circles under my eyes are dark and my cheeks are deflated."
"That's great!"
"So dedicated."
Zhang Yuan responded with an awkward smile.
The way he obtains his current state is different from before.
Before, I mainly relied on smoking, not sleeping and being hungry.
Recently, I mainly rely on laning with Cheng Hao every night.
Anyway, he was almost done and Cheng Hao was almost leaking.
If they don’t go home, one of them will die.
Sitting on the folding stool and holding his waist, Zhang Yuanxin said.
"Wait until I finish filming, adjust my body back to full health, and then return to the imperial capital to teach her a lesson."
He was entering the sage state, reciting his lines and preparing for the next scene, but two things happened. A figure came to his side.
A rough manly voice sounded in his ears.
“It’s you who asked the director to change my red underwear!” (End of Chapter)
