"That's it, I'll give Xiaohua a glass, what about that day, blame me, it's me who is too up-and-coming, I admit my mistake, I'll compensate you!" Nangong Xing picked up the wine glass and said to Zhao Xiaohua with a smile.
Since Zhao Xiaohua planned to mix in this industry, she naturally knew the truth of being a man and leaving a line, so she picked up the wine glass.
Nangong Xing hurriedly got up, walked to Zhao Xiaohua's side, and then touched the glass with Zhao Xiaohua, and drank all the red wine in the cup in one gulp, and his posture was low enough.
Zhao Xiaohua also drank all the red wine, and then, Nangong Xing picked up the red wine on the table, added a glass to himself, and said to Xu Taiping next to Zhao Xiaohua, "Mr. Xu, I salute you, you don't remember the villain, thank you!"
Xu Taiping glanced at Nangong Xing lightly, and then said, "You haven't filled up your wine!"
Nangong Xing glanced at her wine glass, she was holding a goblet, the cup was very large, a normal bottle of 330ML beer can be filled with a glass, if the red wine is also filled, it is equivalent to a third of the bottle!
Nangong Xing accompanied the smiling face, filled the entire glass of wine, and then said, "Mr. Xu, this is okay." ”
"Yes, very much!" Xu Taiping nodded, picked up the wine glass and touched it with Nangong Xing, and then took a sip.
Nangong Xing took the big glass of red wine, took a deep breath, and then drank it directly in three gulps.
Otherwise, if you want to mix in the entertainment industry, you have a good amount of wine, Nangong Xing drank such a big glass of red wine, like a nobody, nodded to Xu Taiping, and then turned around and returned to his position.
"Hahaha, as the so-called meeting with a smile and enmity, Mr. Xu, your measurement is really big, I salute you!" Sun Jiamin smiled and picked up the wine glass and said.
Xu Taiping also picked up the wine glass with a smile, touched the glass with Sun Jiamin, and then the two of them finished the wine together.
Although Xu Taiping had bullied Sun Jiamin when he was in the capital, this kid put his posture low enough, and he also had enough respect for Xu Taiping, Xu Taiping naturally would not behave arrogantly, his domineering attitude was only aimed at some people who looked down on people.
"Mr. Xu, then let's settle this matter, right? Go back to Director Li, Director Li, is this a problem?" Sun Jiamin looked at Director Li and asked.
"It's no problem, it's definitely no problem, I just need a female number two, Xiaohua fully meets the requirements!" Director Li hurriedly said.
"What? is it a movie made by Director Li!?" Xu Taiping asked in shock.
"Yes, I came to the gold market this time to talk about this matter, Director Li will shoot this movie as the director of the big movie "Little Sister Over Flowers", which is expected to be released in the summer next year!" Sun Jiamin said.
"That's it. Xu Taiping shook his head and said.
"What's the matter, Mr. Xu?" asked Sun Jiamin suspiciously.
"I'm afraid that when the time comes, my little flower will be busy shooting dead and alive, and there are only three or two shots, and someone will give her a room card at night, I don't like to be someone else's cousin, Mr. Sun, forget it." Xu Taiping shook his head constantly.
"Director Li, what's going on?!" Sun Jiamin frowned and looked at Director Li, although he didn't explain much when he introduced Zhao Xiaohua before, but looking at what Xu Taiping said, this Director Li must be the same as Nangong Xing, who also bullied Zhao Xiaohua.
As the so-called dog beating depends on the owner, although Zhao Xiaohua is not a dog, but he introduced the past, Director Li bullied Zhao Xiaohua like this, it really didn't give Sun Jiamin much face.
"This thing... Director Li was so anxious that he was about to cry, he didn't expect Zhao Xiaohua to have such a hard background, he was called a grievance in his heart, Zhao Xiaohua's background is so hard, why shouldn't you have told me earlier, didn't you say how I knew that she had a hard background, I thought she was just an ordinary TV station, as a director, I wanted to sleep with this kind of beauty with no background, is it wrong?
"Mr. Sun, don't embarrass others, after all, they are directors, and directors are really important for big movies!" Xu Taiping said.
"Mr. Xu, don't talk about this matter first, I have to ask clearly, the person I confessed, I want to see who has the courage to uncover her!" Sun Jiamin stared at Director Li and said.
"Mr. Sun, Mr. Xu, this matter is not good for me, I don't know that Zhao Xiaohua is a good friend of the two of you!" Director Li hurriedly said with a smile.
"Director Li, I personally called to introduce this Zhao Xiaohua to you, don't you know that she is my friend?" asked Sun Jiamin with a dark face.
"I know, I know, but isn't there still a difference between this friend and a good friend?" Director Li said aggrievedly.
"So you're going to stuff people with room cards, so you're going to cut other people's shots?" asked Sun Jiamin.
"It's all my fault, it's my fault, Mr. Sun, Mr. Xu, don't blame those who don't know, I really don't know, I know now, as long as you let Xiaohua into the group, I will definitely give her the second female number, certainly, there will be a lot of shots!" Director Li said excitedly.
"No need. Xu Taiping said lightly, "I don't want Xiaohua to join such a crew, Mr. Sun, either change the director, or I understand your kindness." ”
"This, Taiping, it's a bit difficult to change the director!" Sun Jiamin said embarrassedly, "This matter, we have actually talked about hard money investment, the director, the role has basically been determined, so they invested 300 million in us, and now they say that they want to change the director, even if it is a breach of contract on our side, they are likely to withdraw their investment." ”
"In that case, Xiaohua can only wait for later, Guo Dong, have you had any drama recently?" Xu Taiping asked Guo Yunpeng on the side.
"There are a lot of plays, but, Mr. Xu, I think it's not easy for Mr. Sun, everyone has their own difficulties, so let's take a step back. How about it?" said Guo Yunpeng with a smile.
"That's no need, I appreciate Mr. Sun's kindness. Xu Taiping said lightly, "However, I don't like to get into the sand in my eyes, what is Director Li, I fight with him, it seems that my level is not enough, so I don't bother to mention these things anymore, Guo Dong, you can help find a better scene, just give Xiaohua a female number two." ”
"What do you mean by a good play?" asked Guo Yunpeng.
"There is no bed scene, no kiss scene, it can show Xiaohua's acting skills to the greatest extent, and the investment cannot be small, the director has to be a big name, and the other male and female protagonists must also be domestic first-line, the script must not be nonsensical, it can be a drama, science fiction, action movie, anyway, you can get a few scripts for Xiaohua to see first, let Xiaohua pick. Xu Taiping said.
"This..."Guo Yunpeng couldn't help but want to scold his mother, Xu Taiping's request was all made by him to others before, and Xu Taiping's proposal was too bold, any male and female protagonists have to be on the first line, and then they have to be a big director, this kind of movie is made without a billion investment, don't even think about making it.
"Leave the money to me. Xu Taiping grinned, "I can be an investor, I can give you 500 million in the early stage, so that you can finalize the male and female protagonists and directors, as well as a whole production team." ”
"Five, five hundred million?!" Guo Yunpeng looked at Xu Taiping with wide eyes, feeling as if he had heard a wild night talk.
"Isn't it enough? If it's not enough, I can invest more. Xu Taiping said.
"No, Mr. Xu, you... Do you really plan to invest 500 million yuan first? and then make such a request? Xiaohua is still just the second woman?" Guo Yunpeng asked in disbelief.
"She's an obscure TV host, did she become the first female in the first place? What does this make people say about her? Take your time, even if she is the second female lead, she can also give her enough scenes, first make people up, set people up, and then think about others, in fact, I have always wanted to invest in movies, especially good movies, but there is no channel, and when I saw Guo Dong today, I found that the original channel has always been in front of my eyes! Haha!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Mr. Xu, I'm not kidding, do you really plan to make a movie?
"I really want to, but I don't like publicity, this matter can be attached to your company's name, invest in the name of your company, let's sign a contract privately, I will send the money to your company, and you will give me dividends or something." Xu Taiping said.
"That's no problem, but the first 500 million, I really don't know how to spend this money, now the most front-line male and female stars in China, the appearance fee is about 20 million, and the biggest director is about the same price, how to spend the rest of the money?" Guo Yunpeng asked.
"There are only 20 million domestic ones, then you go to the international, international directors, Hollywood production teams, all dig up, or don't do it, if you want to do it, you have to make it big, the domestic production team is not me said, the five-cent special effects, any one in our school who learns special effects for three years is better than them!" Xu Taiping said.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, if you can really get the funds in place, then I will definitely help you do this, and I will definitely do this thing well!" Guo Yunpeng said excitedly.
"Mr. Xu, don't you take your brother with you for this kind of good thing?" Sun Jiamin on the side hurriedly said.
"Mr. Sun, you're still busy with your little sister movie. Xu Taiping smiled and said, "I'll just play with Guo Dong." ”
After saying this, Xu Taiping said to Guo Yunpeng, "Give me your company account, and I'll let people pay me now." ”
"So fast, don't be in such a hurry!" Guo Yunpeng said.
"Strive for the release of next summer, so everything has to be fast, but let me tell you first, Guo Dong, I can trust you to let you do this, otherwise who can't find anyone with money this year, right? So, how much dividends should I be given, and how to operate this matter, you can do it yourself. Xu Taiping said.
"Okay!" Guo Yunpeng nodded and said, "I will definitely do it well!"
