Hawke spent the whole night researching the contract, but he didn't expect to receive another phone call early the next morning.

Meng Yufei, Meng Dao?

Questioning, Hawk clicked the answer button.

"Xiao Ke, I saw the news yesterday and knew that you had triumphed. Meng Dao's opening remarks were so familiar, "I've been in Beijing these days, I don't know if you have time to come out for a meal today?"

After last year's New Year's Eve incident, Meng Yufei left Xiangnan Satellite TV and switched to Shanghai.

Why did he come to Beijing recently?

As the chief director of the major galas in Shanghai in 2006, Director Meng's invitation to Hawke must be accepted.

Hawke will be close to the crew to participate in the TV shoot the day after tomorrow, and it seems that the contract matter can only be suspended.

"No problem, noon or night. Hawke replied after a moment's thought.

Before the weather in Beijing got warmer, Meng Yufei ordered a mutton hot pot.

As for the address, Hawke, a native of Shangjing, also went around countless alleys to find it.

"Don't look at the small number of people in this shop, the taste is very good. After taking Hawke to a private room, Director Meng said, "The most important thing is to be clean. ”

This means to reassure Hawke that he will not be photographed by the media.

"I would like to congratulate you on serving as the chief director of the Shanghai Satellite TV Gala. Hawke took a small glass of rice wine and toasted the other party.

Meng Dao and Hawk clinked glasses, and then drank them all in one gulp.

"Actually, I have to thank you for this. Meng Yufei personally handed Hawke an oil dish, "If it wasn't for your rescue at the New Year's Eve concert, I don't know where to go now." ”

The two of them came and went and exchanged a few polite words, and then they began to eat hot pot.

Eating shabu mutton on a cold day is an ultimate pleasure, especially after four or five days of 'delicacies' in Britain, Hawke desperately needs the comfort of Chinese food.

Of course, if someone is around, you still have to restrain yourself and maintain your demeanor.

"Anyway, I owe Xiao Ke a favor to you at the time. Meng Yufei handed Hawke a plate of meat and said, "I recently directed the filming of a variety show of tourism and food, I wonder if you are interested in recording an episode of Xiao Ke?"

Since it was personally invited by Director Meng, it would not be that kind of background board guest, and Hawke naturally would not refuse.

"It's my pleasure, I don't know if there is a conflict between the recording time and my schedule. Hawke replied.

"I plan to invite you to participate in the recording of the Dragon Boat Festival, which should be filmed in early May. ”

In early May, that was when their online drama was just released and needed all kinds of publicity, and I don't know if Di Le would let him go.

If the broadcast time of this variety show is mid-May, there is no need for Hawke to think about it, Dile will force Hawke to bring the TV series to promote.

It's a pity that Director Meng has already mentioned that it is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is at the end of May, when "Fairy and the Guardian of the Seven Stars" was broadcast for more than half of the time, and the daylilies were cold.

"The time is not set yet. Hawke didn't want to give up this opportunity, "I don't know when the latest time to give you an answer to Director Meng?"

"In late April, the program team needs at least two weeks to promote. ”

There's still time to go back and fight with the company.

New song hits, TV series shooting, changing companies, striving for variety shows, plus the release of "Love" in China in June, there are many things that make people think that Hawke is a first-line star.

In fact, he has just broken away from the 18th parallel.

As an artist, busyness is a kind of happiness, and when you live a Buddhist life, it will mean that you are paste.

The two of them talked for almost an hour.

At the end of the day, Meng Yufei called Hawke and said to him apologetically: "I don't know if you have time next, I have an old friend who wants to meet you, let me help introduce you." ”

Since he is related to Director Meng and himself, this person must be a person in the entertainment industry.

Hawke, who only got an invitation to a variety show during dinner, was not easy to refuse at this time.

Hawke nodded in agreement.

Then Director Meng took Hawke out of the Shabu Shabu Restaurant, and after a few rounds of alleys, he took Hawke to a teahouse.

"That person is in the first room on the right hand side of the third floor, in fact, you should know him. Director Meng patted Hawke on the shoulder, "I won't go up, Xiao Ke, tell me at any time if there is any progress on your schedule, I will arrange it here." ”

It's the 21st century, and Director Meng is still so mysterious, like making a spy movie.

Hawke followed the instructions and knocked on the door of the room, and sure enough, the people inside knew him.

In fact, I can't say that I know him, I can only say that I have seen this face, but I haven't been able to speak.

Liu Congyun, the chief screenwriter of Shanghai Satellite TV's "Xingwen Girl".

As the creator of this year's popular youth idol drama, Hawke, who was only a cameo in the crew at the time, had no chance to talk to her.

If the most important director and producer of a movie, then the screenwriter is king for TV series.

As long as there is a good script, even the actors themselves can make cameo appearances as temporary directors for one or two episodes.

"Mr. Huo is here. Liu Congyun's voice was a little hoarse, standing up was not tall but had a good temperament, she beckoned Huo Ke to sit opposite her and said, "I don't know what kind of tea Mr. Huo likes to drink, I'll call them up." ”

Master Kong is ice red?

Hawke didn't know anything about it, but luckily he remembered the afternoon tea he had in Britain.

"Keemun black tea bar. Old God Hawke said comfortably.

After the tea came up, Liu took a sip of the teacup from the clouds, and then said to Hawke leisurely: "I apologize to Mr. Huo here, I haven't had a chance to talk to you during the filming of "Star Girl", and it was a little hasty to ask Director Meng to arrange this meeting today." ”

As mentioned earlier, the chief screenwriter has a lot of opportunities and has no time to pay attention to a small cameo role.

"It's my honor to meet Mr. Liu here, the filming time of the crew was too urgent last month, and I wanted to visit you, but I heard the crew say that you didn't have the opportunity to meet during that time when you were filming in other provinces. Hawke replied politely.

Unlike the various bosses who liked to go around in circles before, Hawke felt that Liu Congyun spoke very directly.

"The character that Mr. Huo made a cameo was written by my assistant screenwriter, and the audience responded well after the second episode aired yesterday, thanks to Mr. Huo's interpretation. Liu Congyun smiled at Hawke and said, "It's just that the third episode that will be broadcast at the end of April will transform this character into a villain and retire, which seems a pity now." ”

She pulled a folder out of her backpack and slid it off the coffee table in front of Hawke.

"I wonder if Mr. Huo is interested in continuing to play the role of Huo Tingsheng?" she looked at Hawke's somewhat puzzled expression and added, "Maybe Mr. Huo can take a look at my revised script before making a decision." ”

Hawke thought for a moment and then flipped through the script.

The first part is the plot of episode 45, which is the episode where his character theoretically exits.

The scenes have all changed, and the kidnapping of Fei Yanran has disappeared, replaced by a rivalry between Huo Tingsheng and his father in the North District of Shanghai.

This father character, who originally only existed in words, has become a character with a role, and the character has also changed from a bankrupt man who lost a black boxing to a poor musician.

This is only the first part, and there is still a part of the folder titled "Starheard Girl" Season 2.

"Mr. Liu, what is this?" Hawk was a little puzzled, this episode has been filmed, what is the point of posting this script now?

"If Mr. Huo is interested in "Star Girl", we can reshoot the scene of episode 45. Yoo stood up and walked over to Hawke, pointed to the script and said, "This is the plot I re-set for this character, and the next is the draft of the first five episodes of the second season." ”

"You mean to keep me on the cameo?"

Liu Congyun shook his head and then said concisely: "It's not a cameo, it's a permanent appearance." ”

Resident Character?!

The role status of TV dramas is divided into no lines from low to high, with lines Longtai, with name cameos, with plot cameos, resident and the most important starring role.

The so-called resident role is at least ten episodes in a TV series with more than 40 episodes in a season, in other words, a supporting role.

If Hawke and Dille signed a full contract, it would take them until the second year to get such a role, and now the gift is in front of him.

"I don't know if Mr. Huo is interested?" Liu Congyun was at ease, looking like he was nine out of ten.

In fact, she also has such qualifications.

There is no doubt that Hawke himself was inclined to accept the offer.

First, the ratings of the first season of "Star Girl" have been rising;

Second, the new character setting Hawke is very satisfied, he is a flesh-and-blood character, and he has a good image;

Third, this drama is aimed at the youth market, which coincides with Hawke's fandom, and the drama itself is likely to become the guest of honor at the Youth Choice Awards in April next year, which will greatly help improve his popularity.

It's just that if you want to sign a contract, you will inevitably contact Hawke's company.

But Hawke didn't want to sign the contract under Diel, otherwise it would be difficult to settle all kinds of disputes later.

He wanted to find an opportunity to negotiate conditions with Blue Sky Entertainment first, and see if he could get the company first, and then talk about this series.

Liu Congyun is an old Jianghu, and her face reading skills seem to be full marks, she personally added tea to Hawke and said: "I know that Mr. Huo has just returned from Britain, and he will be busy with the filming of TV series in a few days, so I can give Mr. Huo two weeks to think about it." ”

She added: "Mr. Huo doesn't have to worry about the episode scheduled to be broadcast at the end of April, we can delete that episode now, and when you decide to shoot it, you can postpone your scene to 47 or 48 episodes, in which case the broadcast time is mid-May, and there is still time." ”

How can there be such a caring screenwriter who can read minds?

Hawke was a little shocked, feeling that Liu Congyun's whole person exuded a kind of fantasy color.

Since the other party proposed a perfect solution, Hawke naturally agreed, and promised that Liu Congyun would respond to her as soon as possible.

Hey, there's one more thing this month.

The two of them chatted for nearly half an hour.

At the end of the day, Liu Congyun stopped Hawke, handed over his business card and asked, "I don't know if you have time next, Mr. Huo, I have an old friend who wants to meet you, let me help introduce you." ”

Ha?

This scene seems to have been seen.

Liu Congyun smiled at Hawke for the first time and explained, "It was also him who knew that I knew that Director Meng knew you, so he took the liberty to extend the invitation." ”

This sentence is very tongue-twisting, which is very consistent with the dialogues of the protagonists in "Xingwen Girl", and it is worthy of Liu Congyun's mouth.

is still the same sentence, the one who can let Liu Congyun help meet Hawke must still be someone in the entertainment industry.

Just got a chance to play a resident role, and it's not kind to say no.

Hawke nodded a little numbly in agreement.

So Liu wrote Hawke and left the teahouse, and after a few more roundabouts of the alley, he took Hawke to a studio.

"That guy is in the second section of the exhibition area on the left, and you may have heard his name. Screenwriter Liu gently touched Hawke's shoulder and said, "I won't go in, Mr. Huo, if there is any progress on your schedule, please tell me at any time, I will arrange it here." ”

Looking at the figure of Liu drifting away from the clouds, Hawke was a little speechless for a while.

What TV movies did they grow up watching in the 60s?

The style of painting is so strange!
