Chapter 42 The First Meeting with Wang Jinghua
"Jing Boran, do you know that the heroine of Li Mu's new drama has been decided?" Wang Zhongjun stopped thinking about those troublesome things for a while, and asked instead.
"I don't know, he didn't tell us, but he said it was officially going to start at the end of February. Jing Boran had to say honestly in the face of the big boss's questioning.
It has been determined that the end of February will start, and it is now in the middle of February, that is to say, there is still half a month, according to this, it should have been decided, Wang Zhongjun thought.
"That's it, Jinghua, you go and contact Li Mu, if the heroine hasn't been decided, let Bingbing go, his TV series has such a big impact now, as long as the quality is acceptable, it will definitely be a big hit, this is a rare opportunity for Bingbing." Wang Zhongjun still decided to ask.
"Thank you Wang Dong, don't worry, the heroine must be mine!" Fan Bingbing saw that the chairman was so worried about herself, and she couldn't help but be a little grateful.
Just hearing her words, Wang Zhongjun felt a little uneasy in his heart, "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse in the future!"
......
After Li Mu and Wang Yue got up, they rushed to the office building located in the center of the International Trade Building, this set of office buildings was rented after he came to the capital this time, and he planned to use it as a branch of the studio in the capital, the area is larger than that of Yuzhang, there are more than 300 square meters, but the price is much more expensive, the rent for a month is more than 70,000 yuan, but there is everything in it, and the decoration is also very luxurious.
"Mr. Li, you are here, I have bought all the equipment to be used by the crew, all of which are the best and latest equipment. Seeing Li Mu coming, Xu Zheng, who has been purchasing equipment for the past few days, stepped forward and said.
"Take me to see it. Li Mu couldn't wait to see the equipment of his crew, after all, he had borrowed it from others before.
Xu Zheng took Li Mu to the place where the equipment was stored, all the equipment had been unpacked, and the crew was inspecting it.
Digital Cameras, Prime Lenses, Zoom Lenses, Recording Carriers, Mixers, Stereo Microphones, Digital Movie Recorders/Players, Cranes, Director's Monitors, Rails and Railcars.....
Looking at the equipment in front of him, Li Mu felt that his studio was complete at this time.
"Lao Xu, during this time, you will take everyone to check and maintain the equipment, we will officially start the film at the end of the month, and I will go and determine the rest of the actors first. Li Mu said.
"Mr. Li, don't worry, we are all veterans, and we will definitely not delay the boot time. Xu Zheng patted his chest and said.
"Okay, you guys do a good job, I'll leave first!" Li Mu finished speaking and took this Chu Fei out of the studio. Just about to call Chen Qiaoen, the mobile phone rang suddenly.
"Hey, hello!" Seeing that it was an unknown call, Li Mu was a little puzzled.
"May I ask if it's Mr. Li? I'm Wang Jinghua of the Huayi brothers. A woman's voice came from the other side.
For Wang Jinghua, the first agent in China, Li Mu can be said to be like thunder, in the future, he will take more than half of Huayi's stars to Chengtian Entertainment, and later set up a brokerage company, looking at the entire entertainment industry, this kind of super cohesion for artists, there is no one else except Wang Jinghua. But what can she do with herself, she and Hua Yi shouldn't have anything to do with it.
"Hello Director Wang, do you have anything to do with me?" Li Mu said politely.
"I don't know if Mr. Li has time now, can he come out to meet, there is something I want to talk to Mr. Li face-to-face!" Wang Jinghua said.
"That's okay, Director Wang, you can set a place!" Li Mu thought about it for a while and agreed to meet him, if he could make friends with this gold medal agent, it would be of great help to him in the future.
Wang Jinghua reported a place, and the two agreed to meet in an hour.
"Let's go, go meet this "first agent" "Take Chu Fei to take a taxi to the agreed location, the previous Audi A4 was left by him in Yuzhang for Zhou Hui to use, because after buying two villas, the money in the card is running out and I have to buy equipment for the crew, so I haven't bought a car yet."
More than half an hour later, Li Mu came to the better place, it was a teahouse, using the name of a celebrity, called Laoshe Teahouse, when he entered the door, the place was quite big, and it looked like there were more than 2,000 flat secrets, and there were still people in the hall talking about cross talk.
I talked to the shopkeeper in a blue coat, and the private room I had made an appointment with followed him up to the third floor.
"Mr. Li, hello, I didn't expect Mr. Li to be younger than the newspaper said, at such an age to create such a big worth is really young and promising!" Wang Jinghua's words are not boasting, any young person with no background can come to such a point, which is enough to make people look sideways.
"Director Wang, I have admired my name for a long time, it is really worthwhile for me to meet you, a gold medal agent, today. Li Mu said sincerely.
"What kind of gold medal agent, they are all called by friends in the entertainment industry, come to Mr. Li, let me introduce you to you, this is Fan Bingbing of our company. Wang Jinghua said and introduced Fan Bingbing, who was sitting next to him, to Li Mu.
"Hello Mr. Li, I'm Fan Bingbing, Sister Hua is right, you are really young!" Fan Bingbing looked at the man in front of him who was a few years younger than himself, and was very curious, in today's society, she knows how difficult it is to succeed without a background and no relationship, just say that if she hadn't been praised by the company in recent years, let alone relying on her own ability, she would be on an equal footing with the four major Hua Dan, and even the first-line position would not be stable. She has seen Li Mu's experience, just from an ordinary peasant family, and before the age of twenty-four, everything graduated and worked like most young people in the country, but just last year, a show "Who Can Become a Millionaire" made him start the road to success, and when he was forced to leave the TV station, people thought that he would be depressed, like a buried genius. But he didn't expect that after that, he produced "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", which is also a phenomenal variety show, and the popular TV series "Love Apartment", which is now worth more than 100 million yuan is enough to overshadow everyone of his age.
"Miss Fan, I used to see it on TV, but I didn't expect to see a real person this time!" Li Mu really didn't expect Fan Bingbing to be there, which made him even more curious about what was going on.
"Mr. Li wants to drink something, this teahouse is a famous time-honored brand in Beijing!" Wang Jinghua did not say anything serious.
"What do you want to drink?" Li Mu asked Chu Fei first.
"You order, I don't drink much tea. Chu Fei shook his head.
"Then let's have two cups of Wen leather brick Pu'er, the aged Pu'er is neither bitter nor astringent." Li Mu said.
The waiter next to him immediately went out to make tea for them.
"Mr. Li, do you also know tea?" Fan Bingbing became more and more curious.
"Where do I know tea, but I just have a little understanding of it when I was studying and worked part-time in a teahouse during the summer vacation. Li Mu waved his hand and said.
"No wonder Mr. Li was so successful, he started working part-time while he was still studying. Wang Jinghua sighed.
"This is all forced by life, who doesn't want to enjoy life if they don't have to worry about food and clothing?" Li Mu said with a wry smile.
Hearing Li Mu's words, Chu Fei's eyes were full of tenderness when he looked at him, it turned out that his previous life was not good.
As a woman's intuition, Fan Bingbing felt that the relationship between Li Mu and Chu Fei was not ordinary as soon as Li Mu and Chu Fei came in, whether it was speaking or demeanor, it was not at all like the relationship between an ordinary boss and an assistant, and now seeing Chu Fei's eyes looking at Li Mu made him even more certain. But I didn't show it, and I didn't see it at all.
It didn't take long for the waiter to come and make tea for them, which was worthy of professionalism, much better than where Li Mu used to work part-time, and the movements looked much more beautiful.
I saw him use a tea knife to gently pry along the layers of tea cakes, just pry down the weight of the next two people, put the tea leaves into the teapot, then pour hot water into the tea and pour it out, pour the hot water again After brewing, pour the tea into a fair cup to keep the tea soup even, and then pour it into two small cups respectively.
Li Mu didn't know how to taste tea, so he directly picked up the cup and took a sip, it was not bitter or astringent, it was a little sweet, and it seemed to have no taste.
After Li Mu drank tea, Wang Jinghua opened his mouth and said the reason for asking him out this time.
"Mr. Li, I heard that the heroine of your new drama has not been determined yet, what do you think of the soldiers!" Wang Jinghua spoke.
Li Mu was a little surprised, how did she know, but Fan Bingbing is indeed very suitable for playing Qian Songyi, in fact, in addition to the temperament of a royal sister, the most important thing for playing Qian Songyi is that she can freely switch between the goddess and the female nerve at any time. Fan Bingbing sold a cute treasure, but he never considered her from beginning to end, the reason is that this woman is too strong, and he doesn't have enough qualifications to suppress her, and the Huayi brothers behind her are not comparable to herself, and it will be difficult to manage on the set at that time.
"I'm sorry, Director Wang, the heroine of my TV series has already negotiated with others, I'm afraid I will live up to your kindness, but we can still cooperate in the future. At that moment, Li Muwan refused.
"That means that the contract hasn't been signed yet, who is she, if Mr. Li is embarrassed to say it, I can come forward. Wang Jinghua said lightly.
Seeing Wang Jinghua's attitude, Fan Bingbing secretly shouted that it was not good, this Li Mu must have achieved so much at a young age, there must be a sense of arrogance in her heart, she is now like talking to her own actors, her tone is so tough, it is strange that Li Mu can agree.
As expected, Li Mu's face changed when he heard Wang Jinghua's words, and then he said in a stiff tone: "Thank you Director Wang for your kindness, but although I, Li Mu, am not a person, I will not regret it since I promised others, let's have a chance to cooperate again in the future!"
Li Mu's repeated refusal made Wang Jinghua, the "first agent", look a little unsightly, usually others begged her to be an actor to film, I don't know how long no one dared to refuse him like this, not to mention that it is still a small studio that has been established for less than a year.
