At the appointed time, Lu Yao followed Xue Jingshu to the box booked by Sister Lan.

Place is private.

It seems that Sister Lan's awareness of guarding against the paparazzi is very good, and she has a strong sense of anti-detection.

Sister Lan, full name Yang Ruolan.

In today's entertainment industry, it can be said that it is in the limelight.

When she debuted more than ten years ago, she was one of the four little flowers in traffic.

Although he is now in his thirties, he is well maintained, and he looks like he is in his twenties.

"Sister Lan, this is my brother, Lu Yao. Xue Jingshu stepped forward affectionately and hugged Yang Ruolan's arm and introduced Lu Yao to her.

Yang Ruolan stood up, dressed in a cheongsam, her figure was graceful and curvaceous.

"Hello Sister Lan!" he greeted Yang Ruolan with a smile and stretched out his right hand at the same time.

Yang Ruolan looked her up and down with a pair of beautiful eyes, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Director Lu is really a young talent, and it seems that the real person is much more handsome than the photo!"

Her voice was soft and greasy, with silky eyes, which made Lu Yao's ears hot for a while.

She didn't hold Lu Yao's outstretched hand, but instead hit the snake like a stick, climbed up to his arm, and naturally grabbed his elbow.

"Come, sit next to Sister Lan!"

The soft feeling on his arm made Lu Yao's body shake suddenly.

Abstinence for a long time, he subconsciously glanced at her pair of conspicuous headlights.

Suddenly, his resistance seemed to be less heavy.

It seems, and don't suffer either?

He thought to himself.

"Sister Lan will introduce to you: This is Director Luo, from the XX Bureau, Xiaolu, you have to have a good relationship with Director Luo, and you will have to take care of the emperor's food, and your career will be guaranteed to rise in the future!

This is Mr. Yuan, the CEO of Xintiandi Network, one of the top ten rising stars of the Internet in the past 10 years, and Mr. Han, the chairman of Feihu Network......

Lu Yao nodded while resisting the temptation of the mature woman next to him with all his might.

Concentration is not enough!

At this time, he didn't want the second brother to be a little Yang Ruolan to show respect.

That's a shame.

But his worries were a little too much.

The minds of the bigwigs on the other side were obviously not on him.

It's on the beauties around you.

Yang Ruolan, who has a lot of experience in saving games, seems to be very familiar with these bigwigs and knows their tastes very well.

For example, this Director Luo, the girl next to him is very innocent, and she looks like a student.

And Mr. Yuan and Mr. Han, the beauties around them are all Internet celebrity faces.

It is worthy of engaging in the Internet.

Even the women who engage in it are related to the Internet.

Soon, the banquet began.

The bigwigs mingled with Yang Ruolan, Xue Jingshu and the beauties who accompanied the wine, chatting and laughing.

On this occasion, Lu Yao was obviously a little uncomfortable.

It's not like he hasn't been to a banquet.

But he really didn't have much experience with this kind of banquet with unequal status.

The bigwigs either have power in their hands, or they have hundreds of millions of assets, and their vision and conversation are completely different from the people he usually comes into contact with.

Obviously, the bigwigs naturally won't take the initiative to ask him for a drink.

He's not a flattering person himself, and he doesn't know how to find a topic, so he seems to have no sense of existence.

Fortunately, Xue Jingshu is here.

At a young age, she is used to such occasions.

Long sleeves are good at dancing, left and right.

While complimenting a few bigwigs, he dodged the harassment of the other party without a trace, and the way he responded naturally and appropriately was breathtaking.

Of course, what opened Lu Yao's eyes even more was the high-sounding grandeur of the bigwigs.

Director Luo, who has a big belly, hugged the innocent beauty sitting on his lap, and kept making small movements in his hands, while talking eloquently: "You also belong to literary and artistic workers when making movies, and you must promote positive energy......

Carry forward the truth, goodness and beauty, and put an end to the false, evil and ugly......

The three views in the work must be correct, and it must have the effect of purifying the social atmosphere......

The future is your ......"

The calmness of his face that does not change his face makes Lu Yao sigh to himself.

No wonder this position can be done.

Lu Yao thought to himself.

Sure enough, this official is not for everyone.

I thought I would have the opportunity to try politics in the future, but it seems that it will not work.

He is obviously not the material to be an official.

Seeing that Lu Yao was drinking there most of the time, Xue Jingshu was a little anxious.

She glanced at Lu Yao and motioned for him to take the initiative to find Mr. Yuan, Mr. Han and others to drink and chat.

Lu Yao was helpless and raised his glass to find Mr. Yuan.

"Mr. Yuan, I toast you!"

Mr. Yuan turned his head to look at him.

Yang Ruolan also came up at this time, exhaling like an orchid.

"Mr. Yuan, Director Lu is a very powerful director, although he is young, he is talented. The recently popular micro-film "Old Boy" is his work.

If Mr. Yuan wants to invest in movies, Director Lu should be a good choice!"

Lu Yao glanced at her gratefully.

"Oh? 'Old Boy', I've seen it. After all, I'm an Internet person. Mr. Yuan seemed to smile: "Director Lu, what do you think of your debut novel?"

"This ...... The first work, with its lack of experience, inevitably has some flaws. However, judging from the current response, it is not bad. ”

"But I've heard: you lost a lot of money making this movie. ”

“...... I made this short film mainly to hone my shooting skills and prepare for the blockbuster film in the future......"

"But you've lost money. ”

"Mr. Yuan, the first movie, it doesn't matter if I lose money or not, the important thing is to let others see my sincerity and ability!" Lu Yao was a little angry: "I chose to make a micro-movie at the beginning, and I didn't plan to make money. So, can we stop mentioning this?"

"Oh, yes. What type of film are you going to make next, and how much do you expect to invest?"

"In the next step, I want to make a comedy with black humor, and I am expected to invest about 20 million. ”

"Twenty million?" Mr. Yuan frowned, "As far as I know: the total cost of your first movie is only one or two million." This second movie, you want to make a cost of 20 million? Can you handle it?"

"Mr. Yuan, I just said: the first movie is just to test the waters, of course, it is not suitable to invest too much cost. At present, the word-of-mouth fermentation of "Old Boy" has proved that I am a qualified director......"

"But 'Old Boy' lost money. ”

“......”

Lu Yao's face darkened.

Yang Ruolan hurriedly came up to play the round.

"Xiaolu, look at you, just talk about some nonsense! What is not a good reputation, as an entrepreneur, no matter what investment you do, the primary goal is to make money! No matter how good your reputation is, if you don't make money, who is willing to invest, what do you say?

And Mr. Yuan, you are really, why do you pick on other people's sore spots? He's still a child!"

"Hehe, Ruolan, I just wanted to make a joke with Director Lu. Mr. Yuan smiled: "But what you just mentioned is exactly what I said in my heart - investment is to make money." No one wants to do a loss-making business.

Director Lu, I have seen many directors who make literary films, and their reputations are very good, but whether they are popular or not, whoever invests in them is all in vain.

As an investor, I am responsible for my own money. So, sorry ......"

"I will definitely make money with this movie!" Lu Yao said in a deep voice: "Moreover, according to my research on the market, if this movie can be shot successfully, after its release, the box office can at least exceed 100 million!"

"Oh? You mean: with a box office cost of 20 million, you can guarantee a box office of over 100 million?"

"Yes, I can guarantee it!"

"It's kind of interesting!" Mr. Yuan smiled: "Then, do you dare to sign a gambling agreement with me?"

"VAM agreement?"

"I can invest 20 million, but you have to ensure that the box office exceeds 100 million, and the two sides sign a contract!

If you can't reach it......"

"I'm going to compensate you according to the agreement, right?"

"That's right. Do you dare?"

"Just what I want!"
