Chapter 363: Wooing
After finishing the interview, Jiang Ran came to the main table and sat down in a seat next to Zhong Chuhong, where several main cast and crew members were sitting, and To Qifeng was also seated here.
"Adu, how is it? What are my plans after I'm done here?" After Jiang Ran sat down, he asked Du Qifeng with a smile.
Du Qifeng groaned slightly, and then replied: "I don't have any ideas for the time being, let's rest for a while." ”
Jiang Ran nodded and continued: "Well, you have indeed been fortunate during this time, and it is time to rest and rest." ”
As soon as Jiang Ran's words fell, Zhong Chuhong on the side said: "Director Du has any plans for the future, do you want to continue to go back to the radio station to make TV series, or do you want to continue to make movies?"
didn't wait for To Qifeng to speak, he continued: "In my opinion, the Hong Kong film market is getting hotter and hotter now, and Director Du's ability and talent to continue to be a small screen is really a waste." ”
Jiang Ran glanced at Zhong Chuhong, and heard that she wanted to sign Du Qifeng's idea, and also opened her mouth to solicit: "Adu's directing ability is really good, there is no problem at all to open a movie by himself, if you want to make movies in the future, you can come to our Ranfeng Group." ”
Johnny To himself has experience in directing films independently, and in the field of TV dramas, the past two years can be regarded as remarkable achievements, although in terms of ability, it cannot be compared with its own school a few years later, but there is absolutely no problem in directing movies independently.
"Yes, Director Du!" The people sitting at this table are basically people from the Ranfeng Group, and Shi Nansheng, the producer of the movie, also came to the scene today, and he also spoke at this time.
In this way, when Director Du has his own ideas and wants to direct a movie, he can get more resources within the group. ”
"Even if Director Du doesn't have his own ideas for the time being, our group has a lot of TV series and film projects, and when choosing a director for those series of films or new projects, the group's contracted director will definitely be the first choice. ”
"That's right, Director Du. Zhong Chuhong has completely entered the role of the person in charge of the economic company, and has spared no effort to pull people up, "And after signing with our group, the group also allows the contracted directors and actors to take jobs outside." ”
"Moreover, even if there is no ideal job as a film and television director for the time being, the advertising company that our group just established this year now has a lot of advertising work, and it is completely possible to earn extra money in your spare time. ”
Although Johnny To's status has been greatly improved after the success of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in 1983, in Hong Kong, the production of TV dramas adopts a producer system, and the director has more execution and less autonomy.
Therefore, Du Qifeng's status in wireless seems to have improved a lot now, but in fact, he does not have many opportunities to control the project independently, and it is precisely because of this that he entered Jiang Ran's crew through Wang Jing's relationship and served Jiang Ran as an executive director.
Obviously, he hopes to take this opportunity to get Jiang Ran's approval and get the opportunity to direct a film independently.
When Jiang Ran asked him about his future plans just now, he already had a premonition in his heart that maybe his opportunity had come. Now sure enough, Zhong Chuhong won over on behalf of Ranfeng Group, and Jiang Ran also gave him a promise.
Although he was very happy in his heart, Du Qifeng's face showed a hint of hesitation. After several months of cooperation, Du Qifeng is very familiar with the signing rules of Ranfeng Group, and signing contracts of different grades means enjoying different treatment and resources.
Therefore, under the pull of Zhong Chuhong and others, he did not immediately agree, naturally hoping to sign a better contract with Ran Feng.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Du Qifeng's face, and he smiled embarrassedly at Jiang Ran, Zhong Chuhong and others and explained: "Thank you Mr. Jiang, Miss Zhong and the group for your recognition, I naturally hope to continue to direct movies and cooperate with Mr. Jiang and the group again." ”
"However, I want to think about such a big thing again and discuss it with my family. In addition, I myself came out of the wireless station, and even if I want to come out, I hope that I can explain it to the TV station and Uncle Tianlin first. ”
"Therefore, I also hope that Mr. Jiang and Miss Zhong will forgive me for not knowing what to do, give me some time to think about it, and let me deal with the affairs of the TV station. I will definitely reply to Mr. Jiang and Ms. Zhong as soon as possible. ”
Jiang Ran glanced at Du Qifeng meaningfully, he can be regarded as having read countless people now, Du Qifeng's expectations and surprises just now can naturally be seen, and he can naturally guess a few points about the reasons for the hesitation and embarrassment shown by the other party.
A little disappreciatively smiled, waved his hand to stop Zhong Chuhong, who was about to speak to persuade again, Jiang Ran smiled and said, "Okay! Let Director Du think about it. ”
"We don't talk about work tonight, we just eat and drink. As for Director Du's future plans, I won't say much, as long as Director Du remembers what I just said, the door of Burning Feng will always be open for Director Du. ”
Jiang Ran didn't want to sign Johnny To immediately, and he also knew that the other party would become an important symbol of the Hong Kong director industry in the future, but for now, Ranfeng Group has a lot of excellent directors.
Whether it is Tsui Hark, Wang Jing, Yu Yunkang, Lin Zhengying, or Lin Jiawen, who grew up in Ranfeng, or even Jiang Ran himself, they are all the best directors in Hong Kong at the box office.
Therefore, Jiang Ran was a little unimpressed with Du Qifeng's deliberate posture when he had no achievements at present, and it was impossible for Ranfeng Group to break his own rules and give him better contract treatment when he had no works and achievements.
Of course, even so, Jiang Ran left enough room in his words, after all, no matter what you say, To Qifeng is a rare talent in the Hong Kong film and television industry, and there will not be too many talents for Ranfeng Group at any time.
"It's not going to be self-defeating, is it?"
Du Qifeng looked at the smile on Jiang Ran's face, and sighed in his heart, thinking that his hesitation was self-defeating and caused Jiang Ran's disgust, until he heard Jiang Ran's words, Du Qifeng's heart was a little steady.
"Mr. Jiang, the food and drinks are ready. Do you think it's time to start the table?" As he spoke, the assistant in the crew walked up to Jiang Ran, bent down and whispered in Jiang Ran's ear.
"Have you all arrived?" Ah Xin, they sent things back to the company, have they come over?" Jiang Ran turned around and asked in a low voice.
"They arrived right away, and there was a table for them. The assistant replied.
Jiang Ran nodded, "Let's start the table!"
The hotel began to serve food one after another, Jiang Ran asked Zhong Chuhong to pour himself a glass of wine, stood up, and said loudly: "Everyone, our crew has successfully finished today." ”
Today, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you for your hard work over the past few months, and your efforts have made our film a success. ”
"After today, we are all going to go our separate ways to start a new journey, I wish you all a smooth future in your future work! I also hope that we can cooperate again in the future! I hope that our movies can be a big hit, and when the time comes, I will give you a red envelope!"
"I wish the movie a big hit!"
"Cheers to the red envelope!"
"Mr. Jiang, you must remember our red envelopes!"
……
Jiang Ran said a lot, but the attention of the people below was all focused on the red envelope, which made Jiang Ran a little helpless.
