Chapter 152: Romance of the Three Kingdoms
Sent Jing Tian away, Cheng Ran packed up his things, nestled on the sofa tiredly, pondering his next plan.
"Buried Alive" is currently the No. 1 box office in China in November, and the original biggest competitor "Tianhai Fortress" has now been ordered to be removed from the shelves.
Then it's time to cash in on the previous bet with Deng Wenbin.
The second is the casting of the next movie "Hachiko the Loyal Dog".
Group performance Cheng Ran doesn't have to worry about it, Zhang Qiang and several people discussed this matter with each other during dinner last night, including a qualified crew department, Cheng Ran had a rough idea in his heart.
Although the personnel of these departments are a lot of expenses, Cheng Ran can only admit it.
However, in terms of actors, he thinks he can save a little money.
It's like asking Wen Junxian to act, in addition to the verbal share promised to him before, it only cost a few thousand yuan to support it.
If the actor's work can be completed smoothly, then Cheng Ran's work will be much easier in the future.
As long as the crew can operate normally under Zhang Qiang's management, then Cheng Ran will basically have nothing to do, and Cheng Ran will be able to give himself a good vacation at that time.
Cheng Ran didn't hesitate to finalize the matter, first washed up and then went to have breakfast next door.
Zhang Qiang and a few people were studying the conversation between Cheng Ran and Jing Tian at this time, and they were not very interested in Jing Tian's best friend Ye Xiaxuan, but Cheng Ran was willing to help Ye Xiaxuan write songs in the end, and Zhang Qiang and the others were not easy to say.
After all, there is an ex-girlfriend in the middle.
Other people's ex-girlfriends are normally the scumbags who can't wait to abandon them, scumbags walk in car accidents, rain and thunder, choke to death when eating, and choke to death when drinking water......
But Cheng Ran...
This guy first has a foul look, coupled with his open-minded talent, and with Zhang Qiang's contact in the past few months, Cheng Ran's character is definitely not a big problem.
It's unsurprising that such a man and his ex-girlfriend have a subtle spark?
Even if the two are not officially together, they occasionally go out to dinner, and it is surprising to look back on the days when they were together?
Zhang Qiang doesn't think...
Chen Bing doesn't think...
Liu Xiangyang doesn't think...
"I'm the same. ”
Cheng Ran heard Zhang Qiang's recording before at the door, but he didn't bother to say anything to Zhang Qiang, a few obscene men, sat on Chen Bing's bed in the lower bunk, Cheng Ran lit a cigarette, and simply told Zhang Qiang and a few people about the previous gambling contract with Deng Wenbin.
Zhang Qiang was silent from beginning to end, following Cheng Ran for so long, he naturally knew what kind of temper Cheng Ran was, and he would definitely not cause trouble if he could not cause trouble.
And his low-key is obvious to all, and before "Tianhai Fortress" came out, Deng Wenbin made several blockbuster films with hundreds of millions of box office.
Cheng Ran At that time, although "This Man is from Earth" had excellent results, it could crush Cheng Ran at the box office of Deng Wenbin's previous movies.
In this way, Cheng Ran was willing to promise a gambling contract for himself.
Zhang Qiang only felt like a brick in his eyes, but he didn't say any words of gratitude to Cheng Ran pretentiously, and it was polite to say this between brothers.
Cheng Ran originally wanted to go to Deng Wenbin now, but Zhang Qiang and the others felt that it was best to wait for Deng Wenbin to start filming the next movie and directly humiliate Deng Wenbin in front of all the crew.
Cheng Ran naturally didn't have any opinions, sat down for a while and chatted with a few people about the construction of the future crew, and Cheng Ran went back to start writing.
He promised Gong Xiaodong to deliver the manuscript to her in the next few days, although he was reluctant, but for the last pure land in his heart, Cheng Ran still stiffened his head and went straight to steel.
As for the current box office of "Buried Alive", Cheng Ran will occasionally pay attention to it while writing novels.
Later, the box office broke 100 million, and Cheng Ran took Zhang Qiang and a few people out for a meal to celebrate.
After a week, under Gong Xiaodong's repeated urging, Cheng Ran finally wrote the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his memory.
That's right, it's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
Cheng Ran also inquired about the history of this world and found that there are no four famous works in this world.
And since I was a child, in addition to textbooks, I have been exposed to these books the most.
After all, it's free, no money, from elementary school to high school, the school will distribute a book of the four famous books at every stage.
After watching too much, Cheng Ran is naturally familiar with the plot in it, and with the memory fragments that gushed out after getting drunk last time, there are memories of these books, Cheng Ran simply wrote the beginning of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" according to the picture in his memory in the past few days.
Although there is always a little shame in my heart, this can be regarded as spreading culture, after all, "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is Cheng Ran's favorite book.
Gong Xiaodong received a call from Cheng Ran and learned that he still attached great importance to the first draft, and flew to Hengcheng to see Cheng Ran with the editor-in-chief of his publishing house on the same day.
Gong Xiaodong's editor-in-chief is a twenty-seven-year-old young woman named Wen Jihua, a typical scholarly family, who has been working part-time at Gong Xiaodong's publishing house since before graduating from university, and directly joined Gong Xiaodong's publishing house after graduation.
From a small staff member to Gong Xiaodong's most trusted editor-in-chief, Wen Jihua has completely relied on his tricky eyesight to find excellent works from a large number of submissions every day.
Cheng Ran curled up in the chair, not knowing why, no matter how much he was wearing, it seemed that he couldn't keep a little heat on his body, and he could always feel cold.
It is in this kind of room that Cheng Ran can be slightly better, but he still habitually curls up to maintain the heat of his body.
As a young man, Wen Jihua naturally heard the recent rumors of Cheng Ran.
She has seen his movies, whether it is "This Man is from Earth" or "Buried Alive", and with her experience and eyesight, she has to admit that Cheng Ran does have a big brain, a big brain.
The deep meaning contained in these two movies makes Wen Jihua appreciate it very much.
But appreciating the works belongs to appreciating the works, in fact, Wen Jihua doesn't have much of a good impression of Cheng Ran, especially seeing him curled up on a chair like an old man in the twilight at the moment, which makes Wen Jihua, who is used to doing things vigorously and resolutely, feel disgusted.
This kind of person is often associated with laziness, and as far as she knows, Cheng Ran is not very old, and a young person doesn't even have a little energy, which makes Wen Jihua faintly feel that this young man with high hopes from the boss has a kind of vain meaning.
Cheng Ran didn't look polite when he saw the two of them, and took out the 200,000 yuan that he had worked hard to come out of recently, which was nearly one-third of the amount.
Gong Xiaodong took the thick pile of printing paper in Cheng Ran's hand very cautiously.
After hearing that Cheng Ran had completed four other piano pieces in Spain, Harem Xiaodong became more and more curious about what kind of novels Cheng Ran could write.
Gong Xiaodong solemnly spread the manuscript on the table and began to read it with Wen Jihua beside him.
