Chapter 558: The World Is Cold

"Uncle Ma!"

Ma Rong really walked down the stairs, and a middle-aged man who happened to pass by greeted him warmly: "Where are you going? Have you had dinner?"

Ma Rongzhen nodded and said, "There is a party in the evening, and it will pass now." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"It must be in a high-end hotel!"

The middle-aged man said in a rather exaggerated tone: "You are a big star now, and you can't stay here for a few days, right?

Ma Rongzhen smiled faintly and did not answer the other party's words.

The other party is his neighbor, he usually has no contact, and the most he can do when he meets is just a nod, and Ma Rong really knows that this person secretly despises him - he used to be.

Since Ma Rongzhen's "A Chinese Ghost Story" was released on Hong Kong Island and sold at the box office, as the actor of Yan Chixia, an important character in the film, his fame and popularity have increased sharply.

There are reporters interviewing, some people call him to make movies, and some people come to the door to want to be his agent...

Ma Rongzhen's rented house in Tin Shui Wai suddenly became crowded, and then the neighbors, whether they knew him or not, greeted him warmly with a smile on their faces.

In the past, there were many people in the neighborhood who knew Ma Rongzhen, but few of them had such a friendly and enthusiastic attitude.

Usually everyone talks about him, saying that his wife cheated on her career and served the street, and she was extremely down-and-out and only ridiculed.

Now that he has turned over, everything is different.

People are warm and cold, and the world is hot and cold, nothing more than that.

After experiencing prosperity and vanity, Ma Rongzhen has long been downset, and he has not been carried away by this.

After a few polite words to the other party, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Tonight, Lu Chen's studio and Jiayang Pictures held a celebration party at the Shangri-La Hotel to celebrate the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" exceeding 50 million, and Ma Rongzhen must participate.

At this moment, a black Mercedes came to a steady stop beside him.

Ma Rong couldn't help but be taken aback.

The Tin Shui Wai area he rents is a civilian area in Heung Jiang, and the urban construction and environment cannot be compared with the prosperous commercial area, which is full of privately built houses, and the narrow streets are full of sewage and garbage.

A luxury Mercedes worth millions appeared here, almost like winning the lottery.

The next moment, the window of the back seat of the Mercedes was lowered, and a fat-headed, big-eared head poked out.

"Brother Ma!"

Ma Rongzhen was stunned for a moment, took a closer look, and recognized the other party: "Boss Gao?"

Ma Rongzhen debuted for decades, and he was also in the limelight back then, and there were many people who knew him inside and outside the circle, although he didn't have any contact after hitting the street, but his memory was never missing.

This Gao Hongdegao boss is Gaosheng Pictures, and now he has been renamed the boss of Gaosheng Entertainment, and he is a figure with a lot of status in the film and television entertainment industry, with a sleek and shrewd personality.

Ma Rongzhen had made a movie produced by Gao Sheng Pictures before, and the box office was okay, so he formed a friendship with Gao Hongde, but later when he was down, he wanted to ask Gao Hongde for help, but he was rejected by the other party.

Now seeing Gao Hongde again, Ma Rong can't help but think back to his past and is a little distracted.

Gao Hongde opened the car door and walked down, stretched out his hand and patted Ma Rongzhen on the shoulder with a smile, and said in the tone of an old friend: "We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, right? ”

Ma Rongzhen was woken up by Gao Hongde's pat, and said with a faint smile: "It's been ten years." ”

He was really very emotional in his heart.

If he is a narrow-minded person and has experienced such an experience as Ma Rongzhen, he will definitely not have a good face for Gao Hongde, and maybe he will have to sneer a few words to vent his resentment about being rejected back then.

But Ma Rongzhen had no prejudice against Gao Hongde, there were many people who rejected him at that time, and most of the reasons were also on himself, and he couldn't complain about it.

Of course, Ma Rongzhen will not regard Gao Hongde as a friend, he is just curious about the other party's intentions.

"Boss Gao, do you have anything to do with me?"

Gao Hongde said: "Are you going to Shangri-La to attend the celebration party in the evening? I just happened to give you a ride on the way, how about a few words by the way?"

Ma Rong really had a feeling of being ridiculous, but he didn't refuse: "That's troublesome Boss Gao." ”

In fact, he has already guessed Gao Hongde's intentions.

The two got into the car together, and the Mercedes restarted and slowly drove out of the narrow alley.

The middle-aged neighbor looked at the departing luxury car with envy, opened his mouth and spat on the ground.

Ma Rongzhen, who was so miserable that he couldn't afford to eat meat, turned over, who would have thought that?

In the car, Gao Hongde looked out of the window and said, "Brother Ma, you have been really wronged all these years, and now you can finally keep the clouds open and see the moon, why do you still live here?"

Ma Rongzhen smiled silently.

Seeing that Ma Rong was really not in the trap, Gao Hongde simply said bluntly: "Brother Ma, Lu Chen's studio doesn't give you a high salary, right? I have a movie that is about to start shooting, how about you help me?

As expected!

Ma Rong really didn't have any accidents, Gao Hongde was not the first to ask him to film, the popularity of "A Chinese Ghost Story" made him, an old salted fish, completely turn over, and all kinds of invitations came one after another.

After thinking about it, Ma Rongzhen said very sincerely: "Boss Gao, I can't reply to you for the time being, why don't we make an appointment to have a good talk, what do you think?"

This is where Ma Rong is really sleek and sophisticated, he doesn't care about the grievances of the year, and he won't sell himself in a few words, and the salary or treatment has to be negotiated by the agent.

A smart agent can ensure the interests of the artist to the greatest extent.

Although Ma Rongzhen does not have an agent now, with his current fame, it is not difficult to hire a reliable one.

Another reason why Ma Rongzhen is reluctant to agree rashly is because he doesn't know if Lu Chen needs him, if Lu Chen has a new film for him to shoot, then even if he doesn't have a penny of salary, he is willing to do it!

It is precisely because I am accustomed to seeing the cold and warm world that I understand how difficult it is to send charcoal in the snow.

Gao Hongde also didn't expect to get Ma Rongzhen in a few words, but since the latter did not refuse on the spot, it means that there is a possibility of cooperation, and it is nothing more than a matter of price.

As long as it is worth the fare, Boss Gao is not afraid of spending money, he smiled and agreed: "No problem!"

The two talked and laughed, and talked about interesting anecdotes in the circle, as if they were really old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

The Mercedes drove out of the alley and into the avenue, where it immediately merged into the rolling traffic.

The Xiangjiang River shrouded in night, the lights are blurred.
