350. Company arrangement
() The blacksmith's private house is next to Luliu Park, not far from Gu Meng's small courtyard.
The yard is not big, about 200 square meters.
This is an old house of a household, there are seven or eight old-style wooden lattice gatehouses, the owner wants to buy a new house, and the money in hand is not enough, I heard that Gu Meng is ready to buy a yard, just no, at a price of 15 per square meter.
The original house was too dilapidated, so Gu Meng and Chen Wei asked someone to demolish the old house, borrowed the design style of the Beijing Opera Garden, and built several antique buildings.
The modern large kitchen, the classic-style tea pavilion, the bright lobby, the two-storey pavilion, the courtyard also has a small pavilion, a small garden, a small stage, and the style is elegant and high-grade.
Usually there are two young men guarding the garden.
Gu Meng and Chen Wei, Wang Tao, Jin Chaoyi, Tong Yonghe and a few people who want to entertain guests, need to greet in advance, two chefs come to work, select materials to buy vegetables, and cook dishes themselves, one chef has two small chefs, the chef is four or five thousand a month, the small chef is one thousand, and two helpers follow to learn the craft, free labor.
Two days ago, Gu Meng knew that the people of Xiangjiang were coming, so he booked a table of dishes in the garden in advance.
He didn't have to order, he only said the number of guests, their identities, and where they were from, and the rest was left to the chef to consider, what drinks and drinks were appropriate.
In the afternoon, Gu Meng took the company's people, family members, and more than 30 people into the garden together.
In September, the chrysanthemums in the small garden are in full bloom, yellow, white, red and black, and they are very lively.
The branches and leaves of the willow tree next to it are still green, and there is no trace of autumn at all.
On the branches of the trees facing the east, there are five bird cages, the cages are half-covered, and a few bird calls are heard from time to time, which are crisp and pleasant, adding a bit of seclusion to the small courtyard.
"Tsk, what a place!"
Entering the garden, a group of people looked left and right, full of novelty.
Dou Wei was straightforward and shouted, exaggeratedly: "It's too good to specialize in a garden for food, it's too **, in the past, Gu Meng and Chen Wei will definitely be arrested as feudal remnants and severely criticized!"
"What do you mean by that?"
Gao Xiaosong pointed at Dou Wei and smiled, "If you don't want to go along with it, you can go back, no one will keep you!"
"Joke, I'm a singer of craftsmanship, how can a company party be without me?"
Dou Wei smiled and glanced at Gao Xiaosong, "Someone is here to eat!"
Gao Xiaosong smiled lightly, "It's fragrant to eat and drink, don't you think?"
“...”
It's a bit crooked.
Gu Meng walked in front with a cane and chatted with Zhou Xingchi Wu Mengda, and when he heard the conversation between the two, he shook his head funny, and made a funny comparison.
Turning his head, he listened intently to Xingchi's report next week.
“... This year, the company has opened three dramas, "The Gambler" and "The Saint of Gambling" you left, and "The Invincible Lucky Star" directed by Chen You, the first two have a box office of more than 40 million, and the Invincible Lucky Star is only 18 million, everyone says that Brother Meng, you are a screenwriter genius..."
Gu Meng smiled, "Uncle Axingda, this is all your credit, it has nothing to do with me, I am stained with your light, lying down and making a fortune~"
"Gu Sheng, you are too modest"
Wu Mengda squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "The "God of Gamblers" you wrote the year before last won the box office championship in 88, and the next year, "Truant Weilong" won the championship again, and this year's box office of "The Saint of Gambling" reached 43.82 million, and Xiangjiang Movies broke through the 40 million mark for the first time, and the box office champion was stable.
The media are unanimously optimistic about the development of craftsmanship, they say that the 60s Xiangjiang films belonged to the Shaw Brothers, the 70s belonged to Jiahe, the 80s belonged to the New Art City, and the 90s must belong to the crafts..."
"Haha! They're still very discerning!"
Gu Meng smiled with a cane.
"Ha~"
A group of girls chuckled softly, as if to say that he was not modest enough.
Gu Meng smiled slightly, looking at some of the people around him, Zhou Xingchi, Wu Mengda, Gong Li, Wang Xiaofei, Honggu, Qiu Shuzhen, three golden flowers... smiled: "There are the best artists and the best bosses in the craft, and they will inevitably grow stronger and stronger, isn't it?"
Zhong Chuhong quipped: "A good boss is the key, right?"
"Haha, that's right!"
The group talked and laughed, entered the pavilion, and before he entered the door, he smelled an intoxicating fragrance.
"Drunken crab?"
He asked, surprised.
"Haha, owner, you have a really bright nose"
Chef Lao Wu came down from the second floor, with a short and fat figure, a shiny brain, and a cooking smell on his white chef's uniform.
When he came to the front, he said with a smile: "The chrysanthemums in the courtyard are blooming beautifully today, wouldn't it be beautiful for the owner to enjoy the chrysanthemums and eat crabs with his friends?"
"Haha, yes, Lao Wu, you are worthy of being a celebrity chef, the dishes are well cooked, and you are very elegant!"
After chatting for a few words, Lao Wu took his buddies and continued to go to the kitchen to be busy.
Gu Meng took a group of people up to the attic, ho~, a sumptuous banquet, a total of three large round tables.
The dishes on the table are all the same.
The main course is crab, hairy crab, drunken crab, spicy crab, surrounded by no less than 20 side dishes, including Xichuan cuisine, Jiangsu and Zhejiang cuisine, Chaozhou lo-mei, and Western dishes specially made for Nini.
All of them are delicate and delicious, and the aroma is tangy.
There are also several flower carvings, faintly exuding the fragrance of wine.
Woo~
Dou Wei couldn't wait.
"Sit down! Uncle Honggu Axingda, feel free to sit down!"
"Wait a minute, Sister Deng Jiajia is almost here!"
As he was talking, there was a hearty laugh from downstairs, "Haha, we're late!"
I saw Sister Zhao Jia Deng coming up from downstairs with a few children, including Tong David, Xiao Meow Xiaohu, Xiao Gu Yan, and the two princesses were held in their arms.
Gu Meng took the two little babies and said with a smile: "What about Grandma?"
"Grandma has eaten a small bowl, and I'm worried that I won't eat too much at night, so I won't come to join in the fun!" Zhao Jia said with a smile.
Gu Meng nodded and beckoned everyone to take a seat.
A table for men, Gu Meng, Uncle Da, Xingzai... There are also heads of several departments.
There are two more tables for girls.
Looking up, they all looked like fairies.
Boys...
I can barely see it!
But the comparison between the two is the difference between the clouds and the mud.
"David, you have to play the day after tomorrow, don't drink!"
"Oh, I know the fourth uncle!"
......
"Mr. Gu, CCTV is preparing to film the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Director Wang is looking for us to pull investment, should we participate?"
After eating, a group of people drank tea and chatted in the tea hall again, and Chang Hong mentioned things at work.
Gu Meng smiled lightly, the craftsmanship invested in Journey to the West, and he didn't make a dime, but he made a reputation in the circle.
In the past two years, in addition to investing in Lao Mouzi's films, Craftsman has also invested in several TV series.
There are Yang Naiwu and Little Cabbage, Liao Zhai, Fengshen Bang, and the upcoming "Desire".
I didn't make much money, but I earned a golden signboard, and when I ran out of money, I came to find craftsmanship, and I was rich... There is really no crew that is not short of money these days.
It's the same with the Three Kingdoms this time, Wang Fulin, the former director of Dream of Red Mansions, once again served as the chief director of the Three Kingdoms, he is familiar with Gu Meng, how can he forget him if he has no money?
Gu Meng thought for a while and said with a smile: "You discuss this matter with Director Wang, there are many girls in our company, and they are beautiful, Diao Chan, Xiao Qiao, Queen Mother He, etc., try to pick in our company."
Chang Hong nodded, "This is a must!"
She remembered one more thing and hesitated: "Mr. Gu, Director Wang said that he wanted to ask you to play Lu Bu, do you want to take it?"
"Lu Bu?"
Gu Meng shook his head, "This role has too many scenes, and the image is not positive enough, I can't play it, if there are other roles, I can consider it."
Chang Hong said with a smile: "I mentioned this matter at that time, Director Wang said, Sun Jian, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Zhao Yun, you can choose, as long as you are willing to participate, he can arrange it for you at any time, and you can even change the play."
"Haha!"
Gu Meng understood Director Wang's thoughts.
Filming the Romance of the Three Kingdoms costs more, Director Wang wants to borrow his name to attract investment, as soon as everyone hears that Superman Gu Meng is going to play the Three Kingdoms, they will definitely not be stingy, and the audience will definitely wait and see when they hear that he is participating.
"The role of Sun Jian is okay, the play is fierce enough and loyal, suitable for me!"
"Okay!"
"Gu Meng!"
After Chang Hong finished speaking, Hu Mei began to pick up again, "Does our company want to start a drama this year?
Gu Meng thought about it, now it is not very profitable to make movies, there are few movie theaters and few audiences, the key is that there is no copying.
The films of fifth-generation directors such as Lao Mouzi Chen Kaige have very personal styles and characteristics, and if you change someone to shoot them, you don't have any taste at all.
He plans to shoot movies in Xiangjiang and TV series in the mainland.
I don't make much money from filming TV series, and now there is no ratings survey, so I can only share a little advertising money.
But you can cultivate stars, gather popularity, and after becoming a star, you can make commercials and movies, and transform them into tangible benefits.
He said his thoughts, there are many beauties in the company, and he can continue to shoot folk mythological love stories with the help of the team of Liaozhai, such as Liang Zhu, Cowherd and Weaver Girl, Tianxian Pei... These are ready-made story big IPs, wouldn't it be a pity to let them go?
It was getting dark, and Gu Meng agreed on tomorrow's singing practice, and they all dispersed.
......
At the gate of the garden, Gu Meng and his party got in the car and left.
He Qin and Tao Huimin walked a few steps, and found that their companion Chen Hong did not follow, so they turned around curiously and saw Chen Hong looking at Gu Meng's car in a daze.
He Qin asked jokingly, "Chen Hong, do you also want to get in that car?"
Chen Hong's face was slightly red, "Don't talk nonsense! I just think our boss is too."
Did you just see it, how many seats were in that car, I'll count them for you, Mr. Deng, Jiajia, Lizi, Xiaofei, Xiaoxu, Teacher Zhu, plus Hong Gu and Qiu Shuzhen who came today, and Ms. Deng Lijun, Xiaogudong's mother.
Nine, my God, Gu Meng is really so attentive!"
He Qin and Tao Huimin smiled.
"Xiao Xu and Teacher Zhu are just taking a ride, and they are always innocent with Gu!" Tao Huimin said with a gentle smile.
"I feel... It's not like that!"
Chen Hong shook his head, he felt that there was some ambiguity between the three of them.
"Even if it is, what's the matter? Gu Meng is not your boyfriend, do you care if he cares about it!" He Qin said with a smile.
"yes!"
Chen Hong shook his head, "Forget it, don't talk about Gu Meng, let's go back quickly, we have to practice singing tomorrow!"
