Chapter 69: Oolong

"Yesterday there was a new drama in the new art city, and the previous photographer was pulled by Mecca. Xu Ke explained.

The behind-the-scenes personnel do not sign contracts like actors, most of them are verbal agreements, but temporary regrets rarely occur.

"Xinyicheng will start the show so soon?" Compared with the unknown photography, the future enemy of Xinyicheng can attract Ye Jianren's attention even more.

"It seems to be called 'Salted Fish Reborn,' an old-fashioned kung fu movie," Xu Ke said.

Ye Jianren breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be this movie. If he remembers correctly, the box office of the movie "Salted Fish Rebirth" was as high as more than 3 million in the original time and space, ranking seventh in the box office list that year, which is a good movie, but it is only good. The bridge is old-fashioned, there is no novelty, and it is completely stained with the light of the two leading actors Hong Jingbao and Mecca and the summer vacation file to achieve this result.

"Judging from the urgency of Xinyicheng and the schedule of Princess Jin, this movie should be released in June, and there will be no conflict with us, don't worry about him, we just need to do our own movies well. Ye Jianren patted Xu Ke's shoulder and said, "I've already boasted about Haikou, don't let me lose face!"

"Ye Sheng, isn't the box office of 10 million too high. Xu Ke said with a bitter face.

In the past five months of this year, there have been three movies that have grossed more than 5 million and two that have grossed more than 10 million. And one of them was also written by me, the shooting cost plus publicity is less than 1 million, and the director is only Zeng Zhiwei, a half-hanger. And this movie, excluding the script, my investment has reached 3 million, and the schedule is still in the hot season like the summer vacation, Xu Sheng, you are even more professional, it is difficult to compare with Zeng Zhiwei. ”

Xu Ke is also a high-minded and arrogant person, and when he was squeezed by Ye Jianren like this, he immediately patted his chest and made a military order.

"By the way, you go back and ask if you have the opportunity to ask Zhong Zhiwen if he is willing. Ye Jianren said, "It's really not possible for the company to have its own behind-the-scenes, and next time if someone temporarily repents, the luck may not be so good." ”

"No problem. Xu Ke nodded, he was also very in favor of Ye Jianren's move.

After chatting with Xu Ke for a few more words, the actors had already put on their makeup and were ready to start the show, and Ye Jianren did not disturb Xu Ke and left the studio. However, it didn't take long for a familiar figure to come into view.

As the set of TVB and Shaw Brothers, there are countless stars who haunt here every day, and it is naturally not a small person who can attract his attention.

"Producer Wang, please, give me another chance, as long as you can let me act, even if you don't need a salary. A red-eyed young man pulled a short dumpty man and pleaded.

"I've given you many opportunities before, but you don't cherish them. ”

"Give it to me one more time, just once. The young man stalked.

"No, I won't use you anymore anyway, you can go and see if the other producers are willing to give you a chance. The fat man said impatiently.

"Hey, I knew this was the case, why did I bother in the first place?" A lament sounded in Ye Jianren's ears, he turned his head and found that it was another Humpty Dumpty, it was Qin Huang who played the tire in "Nightclub" before.

"Qin Sheng, what's going on?" Ye Jianren asked.

"This decrepit boy is called Wu Mengda, who graduated with a good score of fifth place in the wireless training class that year, and his acting skills and image are passable, and he was very promising to make a name for himself, but since he played Hu Tiehua in "Chu Liuxiang", he has been carried away, not only is he often late when filming, but he is also very bad at gambling. I heard that hundreds of thousands of foreign debts have been signed, and now no producer is willing to use him for filming. Hey, such a good seedling was ruined like this. ”

Ruined? I'm afraid not. Sometimes tribulation can break a person, and other times tribulation can become a whetstone for a person's success. After experiencing this trough, Wu Mengda will become a golden supporting role in the film industry in the future, and his fame and salary are greater than many protagonists, and you can't compare with your predecessors who guide the country.

Just as Qin Huang and Ye Jianren were talking, Wu Mengda was also kicked out. A man in his twenties looks a little pitiful with his head down, red eyes, and a lost face, but poor people must have something to hate, TVB and Shaw Brothers know Wu Mengda's experience very well, so no one will sympathize with him, and they mostly look at him coldly.

"Hey, Wu Sheng, do you want to make a movie?"

When Wu Mengda walked by, Ye Jianren shouted, but Wu Mengda didn't have any reaction, and still walked forward with his head down.

"Mr. Wu Mengda, do you want to make a movie?" Ye Jianren raised his tone and repeated again.

Wu Mengda then reacted that the "Wu Sheng" just now was shouting about himself, and that person seemed to invite him to make a movie. He raised his head in surprise and turned away, but when he saw Ye Jianren's young face and the faint smile on his face, a trace of despair and anger appeared in his heart.

"Although I, Wu Mengda, am down, it's not something like you can play!" Wu Mengda roared like an enraged bull.

Ye Jianren looked confused, I just wanted to pull you when I looked at the feelings that you brought me good memories in my previous life, and by the way, I copied the bottom when you were the most depressed and formed a good fate, why did I play you?

"Da Zai, what are you doing, calm down!" Qin Huang stood up and said in a round game.

"It turned out to be you! Qin Huang, I know that you are old and have always looked down on me, but it is too much for you to let a descendant insult me like this. Wu Mengda didn't give Qin Huang any face, and continued to roar.

"Wu Mengda, pay attention to what you say, this is Mr. Ye Jianren, the president of Jianren Film Company. Qin Huang said coldly, "The movie "Nightclub" was written and invested by him, please speak respectfully." ”

Wu Mengda, the president of Jianren Film Company, seemed to have been struck by a thunderbolt, and he was immediately dumbfounded, how could he be the president at such a young age?

"Wu Sheng, I need an explanation!" was inexplicably scolded by Wu Mengda, and Ye Jianren's heart was also full of fire.

"Ye Sheng, I'm really sorry, I saw you so young just now, I thought you were deliberately laughing at me!" Wu Mengda said in fear.

Ye Jianren touched his nose speechlessly, is this a fault caused by youth?

"Ye Sheng, you have a lot of them, don't worry about me. Wu Mengda said flatteringly.

Is Ye Jianren a big amount? Obviously not big at all, otherwise he would not have sued him because of a few reports in the "New Daily", but he really had no way to respond to Wu Mengda's unintentional mistakes.

Beat him, scold him, or ban him? Not to mention whether he can be blocked, even if he is really blocked, what good will it do him? In his future movies, there will be one less golden supporting role, and Wu Mengda will change from a well-known star to an ordinary person or even a rotten boy. Of course Ye Jianren would not do this kind of typical behavior that harms others and himself, so he simply didn't pursue Wu Mengda's previous offense, and said with a gentle face: "Don't blame those who don't know, now Wu Sheng can tell me if he is willing to take my movie." ”

"Yes, willing!" Wu Mengda said busily, "Even if I don't pay for it, I'm willing." ”

"Who else would dare to film me in the future if I don't get paid!" Ye Jianren said with a smile, "How about a small role, only a few shots, and a salary of 1,000 yuan?"

"No problem, thank you Ye Sheng. Wu Mengda sincerely thanked him, he really doesn't care about the salary or not, as long as he can act. Only in this way will he have the opportunity to prove to everyone that he has really reformed himself, and more directors and producers will find him to act in the future, and the salary will not be a problem at that time.
