Chapter Seventy-Five
As soon as Fan Binbin left on the front foot, an uninvited guest came in front of Tang An.
Lu Chuan put his right hand into his trouser pocket and came to Tang An with a glass of champagne.
He shook the cup, glanced at the plate in Tang Shan's hand, and said with a playful smile, "Director Tang didn't eat before he came, you can eat more, and only when you are full can you have the energy to film!"
Lu Chuan, who won a Best Feature Film trophy, has regained his confidence, and he wants to tell Tang An that "Ke Ke Xili" is the "Best Feature Film".
Tang An glanced at Lu Chuan, and looked at his complacent appearance and was speechless for a while.
A legendary brainless villain?
Tang An wiped his mouth with a napkin and said lightly, "I really didn't eat when I came, not to mention that the food prepared by the organizer is really good!"
"Then Director Tang is going to eat a little more......"
Before Lu Chuan could say the second half of his sentence, Tang An immediately said, "Director Lu must be full, isn't it too much, there is a park nearby, many old people will dance there at night, you can go to exercise and eliminate food!"
Unexpectedly, Lu Chuan did not get angry, as if he had expected it.
"Director Tang is still so eloquent!"
He smiled disdainfully and shook the cup in his hand, "It's a pity that no matter how you say it, you can't let the judges give you the trophy, "Ke Ke Xili" is the best feature film!"
Lu Chuan bit the words "Best Feature Film" very hard, and when he was in San Sebastian, Tang An's words of denouncing him were still fresh in his memory.
even said that he was making a documentary, and it was purely to cater to the audience!
"That's right, didn't Director Lu win the best feature film, congratulations!" Tang An said lightly.
Tang An really can't understand how people in their 30s are still like elementary school students!
Why don't you come over with a trophy to show off!
Lu Chuan was angry for a while, thinking that Tang An was ignoring him, lowered his voice, and said directly, "Ke Ke Xili" is a better movie, and your "Shark Beach" can only go abroad to deceive those foreigners!"
After saying that, he looked at Tang An with a smug face.
"So what's that, and then what?"
Tang An was not in the mood to talk to him, and after the dinner, he had to rush back to the crew, check the film he had filmed this afternoon, and then prepare for tomorrow's task!
Putting down the plate, Tang An looked at him indifferently, "So you come to me like a child to show off?"
"Put away your childish thoughts, come to me when you can get 30 million box office, maybe I'll look down on you then!"
"People like you who only make popcorn movies don't understand the meaning of movies, what else do you think about besides the box office?"
Tang An frowned, this person is a bar.
When you say that he talks about art at the box office, and one day when he wants to make a popcorn movie to cater to the audience, he will say that it is to make more audiences understand what he wants to express.
Later, he filmed a "Nine-Story Demon Tower", and when asked why he changed the original book beyond recognition, he said that he was worried that filming tomb robbery out of the festival would make him have a psychological shadow, so he made a monster movie.
When he really became a watch and set up an archway, he hung the name of the ghost blowing the lamp to rub the heat, circled the money and pretended to be high.
Seeing that Tang An didn't speak, Lu Chuan's face was pale, "Doesn't Director Tang want the box office, then I'll see how much box office your movie can win this summer!"
"Don't bother Director Lu about this, you still have to worry about your own films!"
"Director Tang won't be without confidence, Director Xu Ke also has a martial arts film to be released this summer, it seems that the schedule is just like you!"
Lu Chuan was still talking about Rory, but Wang Zhonglei came over.
"Director Tang!"
He nodded at Tang An, and then looked at Lu Chuan again, "Old Lu, I have something to do with you!"
"What's the matter, I'm chatting happily with Tang Anzheng!"
"About your new movie!" Wang Zhonglei leaned into his ear and whispered.
"Then Director Tang, I'm looking forward to your new film being a box office hit!"
Lu Chuan frowned, dropped a sentence without smiling, and left with Wang Zhonglei!
Taking Lu Chuan to the side, Wang Zhonglei felt a little bitter in his heart.
Now Tang An is the key figure recruited by his eldest brother, and Lu Chuan suddenly provokes, if he misunderstands him, it will be troublesome.
And!
Wang Zhonglei glanced at Lu Chuan without a trace, and shook his head secretly in his heart.
"Lao Lu, your project was rejected by my eldest brother, and you will be scolded to death if you shoot it!"
"I took pictures according to real history, I went to the museum and read a lot of diaries of the army, and they wrote very small things in their diaries, such as robbing a pig, digging up some yams, and preparing to cook a meal, and they are the team that entered Nanjing, we must face that history!" Lu Chuan was puzzled.
Face the ass!
Wang Zhonglei scoffed at this sentence and thought that Lu Chuan was dizzy.
But that Frenchman is also eventful, and he was full of food and pushed Lu Chuan to make such a movie.
"But you asked for too much money, it cost 30 million just to restore the real Nanjing, plus group performances, explosions, and war scenes, you can't shoot it without 80 million!"
"Xingmei's Qin Dong has promised to contribute half of the funds, and the other two investors will contribute 15 million, and Wang Dong only needs to bear the remaining 25 million, which is not a lot of money!" Lu Chuan frowned.
Wang Zhonglei persuaded a few more words, and seeing that he insisted on refusing to give up the project, he also made up his mind.
"Lao Lu, let me tell you the truth, my eldest brother wants to invite Tang An to join Huayi, and has promised to allocate 30 million yuan to him for the next movie, plus Director Feng's new film will bear more than half of the cost of 120 million, there is no longer enough money for you!"
"What!" Lu Chuan was startled.
"Wang Dong invited Tang An to join, and also gave an investment quota of 30 million?"
Wang Zhonglei was silent for a moment and nodded.
"Big brother, he also took a fancy to Tang An's box office potential in the mainland!"
"Then what should I do!" Lu Chuan shouted angrily.
It's a slap in the face!
"No, absolutely not, with him without me!"
"I also persuaded my eldest brother, Tang An's first movie was just luck, and the next movie may not be what it will be, but you also know him, and the decisions he made can't be persuaded by ordinary people!" Wang Zhonglei sighed.
"Then how can I stay in the company, Wang Dongming knows that I don't deal with him, but he wants to recruit him!"
......
In the end, the conversation between the two broke up unhappily, and Lu Chuan dropped a sentence of termination and left angrily.
Looking at Lu Chuan's back, Wang Zhonglei sighed, and then took out his mobile phone.
"Big brother, Lu Chuan has offered to terminate the contract, and it is estimated that he will go to you early tomorrow morning!"
"yes, I see!"
Invest 80 million to make a movie with that theme, the content is still so sensitive, not only can the cost not be recovered, but the entire Huayi will be affected if there is a slight difference.
At this time, Tang An stimulated him, and asked him to take the initiative to terminate the contract, and then he retained it many times, and it was not that they were not kind.
With Lu Chuan's temper, even if the eldest brother flatly denied recruiting Tang An, he wouldn't believe it.
And Lu Chuan is embarrassed to say this kind of thing to others, after all, he was squeezed out!
Safely remove an unstable factor, and will not bear the reputation of crossing the river and demolishing bridges!
Although Wang Zhonglei had a good relationship with Lu Chuan before, for the sake of the overall situation, he could only do so.
And Lu Chuan is indeed a bit extreme, God knows what more ** ideas will be in the future.
Seeing Lu Chuan's back go away, Wang Zhonglei put on a smiling face again and walked towards Tang An.
