Chapter 0195 - Holding Up the Whole Sky for You (19)

But after thinking about it for a while, I didn't seem to find a male artist like Wu Yufei. As for the few I have worked with, they seem to be too different from the image of the male protagonist Yongzheng Emperor in the play, including Lin Muzhi, who is more suitable for playing the modern version of a beautiful man or a domineering president, and the costume drama is still forgotten.

Lan Zhiyuan was naturally a little disappointed, "Xu Jie's side is said to officially start filming at the end of the month, and there is really not much time left for us." ”

On the second day after Xu Jie announced that she was going to shoot a new drama, Xingtu Entertainment further announced the details of the new drama as an investor. Not only is the theme of the palace fight drama the same, but she also wants to play the concubine of Emperor Yongzheng, that is, the prototype of Ruyi.

Originally, Xu Jie and "The Legend of Ruyi" had an inseparable connection, and now, this woman is about to play the same role in a grand manner, which is undoubtedly a ridiculous challenge for us.

I wanted to hide, but I couldn't hide it.

Especially if our filming progress is a little slow, she will seize the opportunity in time and be the first to be released, and we will have the same theme and similar plot, and its box office appeal can be imagined.

When I hung up the phone, my mood was even lower.

Like Lan Zhiyuan, before this, we still pressed all our hopes on Wu Yufei, but now, this hope is completely shattered.

Aside from Xu Jie's side, if the actor is not found for a day, then this drama will be postponed by one day.

After seeing Lele, I went straight to the company, and right now, Chen Tian is my brainchild, and I have to discuss everything with him first.

"Why don't you rest at home?" Chen Tianyi was a little surprised when he saw me appear in the office. Although I only had bruises, considering the complexity behind this accident, Chen Tian suggested that I stay at home honestly for the past few days.

I told him that I went to the hospital and told him the content of the call with Lan Zhiyuan. As for Xu Jie, I didn't take the initiative to mention it.

Chen Tian listened quietly, and after I explained all the situations in one go, he slowly spoke, "Maybe things are not as bad as we thought." ”

I looked at him for some reason, and I didn't understand where his indifference came from now.

"By the way, the company's senior management held an important meeting in the afternoon," Chen Tian did not lose my appetite and took the initiative to explain. "When the time comes, Director Lan will also come over, and we will specifically agree on what to do next. ”

"Well, why is Director Lan here? This movie has nothing to do with Long Tian, right?" Moreover, if I remember correctly, the investor of this movie is not Longtian Group, it seems to be an entertainment company in the United States, and their president and Lan Zhiyuan have been friends for many years, so they are very supportive of Lan Zhiyuan's return to China to create brilliance.

It's just that in the past two days, accidents have occurred frequently, and the shooting plan has been repeatedly postponed, and it is said that the United States has hesitated about this cooperation.

This is also understandable, after all, in business, even if there is a love affair for many years, no one will watch their tens of millions of investments go down the drain like this.

It's just that Lan Zhiyuan won't tell me much about this matter, and I don't know the specific details very well.

"Long Tian may become the producer of "The Legend of Ruyi". Chen Tian continued, "It seems that some people can't sit still. As he said this, he looked at me with a meaningful look.

I immediately knew that this person must be referring to the twilight sky.

Otherwise, at this time, who will take the initiative to touch this 'mess'.

"Can I stay, then?" I looked at Chen Tian beggingly, he actually knew that my current movement was restricted.

He hesitated, and finally nodded unexpectedly, "You are the heroine, and you also have the right to participate." But if someone knows about it, it's up to you to explain it. ”

Because Chen Tian didn't know the specific situation, and I didn't know what Twilight Tian thought, it was quite necessary to stay.

After that, I stayed here quietly and continued to study my script, out of confidence that the film would continue to be filmed, but also out of recognition and obsession with the script.

At noon, Chen Tian and I went to the staff cafeteria for lunch, and halfway through, Dusk Tian called, mainly to ask about my lunch and my physical condition. He seemed busy and didn't mention the afternoon meeting, so he hung up after a few casual conversations.

I almost forgot that I had promised him that I would go home as soon as I saw Lele. Luckily, I didn't make a fool of telling him that I had come to the company.

As for the afternoon meeting, he did not mention it, and according to common sense, he would not have participated in such a meeting. Therefore, with such a fluke mentality, I followed Chen Tian to this meeting.

Lan Zhiyuan and a few assistants also came later, and when they saw me and Chen Tian, they smiled and nodded, but they didn't have time to communicate more.

Several main persons in charge of the company's entertainment department also attended the scene one by one, and they were quite respectful, and shook hands with Lan Zhiyuan one after another.

Just when I thought this was the final lineup, the door of the conference room was pushed open again, and Dongfang Xu walked in to meet everyone's eyes. Several of the high-ranking people in the room got up again, and my heart beat rapidly.

Sure enough, Dongfang Xu is just a leader.

When he entered, he stood respectfully on the side of the door, and Twilight walked in later.

My first instinct was to turn my face away and take a folder from the table to cover the side of my face, forgetting that at this time, it was safest to stand still, and I was hiding my ears and exposing myself to a more obvious position.

"Why don't you rest at home?" Twilight's deep voice sounded in his ears, and it didn't seem like he was chatting with the top or Lan Zhiyuan.

And on my side, Chen Tian also signaled me with his eyes. I could only put the folder down for the time being, and when I looked up, everyone present turned their eyes to me.

Even though I still have bandages on my hands, it doesn't seem to attract that much attention, does it?

The next second I realized that Twilight had said something to me.

I can't tell what state I am, panicked, trembling?

His eyes drifted to Twilight, who had already walked to the main throne, and his heart was still twisted, "I just want to come and see ......" I said casually, "Thank you Twilight for your concern." After saying this, I felt that I had finally cleared everything that should be cleared.

As I looked back, I noticed that the corners of Twilight's mouth twitched, his signature gesture of anger and dissatisfaction.

Now where am I in the mood to care if he is angry or not, the people present are either the senior executives of Longtian Group, or the major shareholders, and Lan Zhiyuan and his party, I can't make these people suspicious at this time.

They're all shrewd.

At this time, some shareholders were saying, 'I didn't expect Mr. Twilight to care so much about employees'. It's so cloudy, but it flatters my heart even more. It's just that some people's faces are really not good-looking.

Fortunately, the meeting officially began. These people immediately reverted back to the state of business elites, and Twilight became serious, and there was no emotional component in their expressions. Lan Zhiyuan and his entourage are not out of place in this environment, but can quickly change their identities and transform art into commodities in a timely manner to negotiate.

I don't understand those professional things, but the general meaning can still be understood, Longtian Group will definitely become the investor of this film, and will provide full cooperation services. In this regard, Lan Zhiyuan also expressed his gladly acceptance, he admitted that he made a decision too early before, but he ignored that he was away all the year round and did not understand the domestic film market.

The two sides quickly reached a cooperation intention, and the meeting lasted for more than half an hour in a relatively harmonious atmosphere, and the company's legal counsel was already busy drafting the contract.

The second topic of discussion at the meeting was aimed at the current obstacles, one of which was the selection of the leading actor, and the other was the pressure on Xu Jie.

At this point, several shareholders who had negative opinions about the cooperation began to express various grievances.

As I said before, even if Lan Zhiyuan is a world-renowned excellent director, but at the moment, this movie is a mess, unless a miracle happens, otherwise, the money invested in it will be wasted, and if you encounter some troubles, you will basically lose all your money.

They are businessmen, so naturally they can't just watch their money go to waste.

But the first problem was quickly solved.

Longtian Group is a movable type signboard, not to mention how many male artists with outstanding acting skills and appearance under Longtian can be used as candidates, even if they are selected from the trainees, there will definitely be wishful candidates.

Since Long Tian expressed his willingness to cooperate, this is definitely not a problem. This good advice comes from the director of the entertainment department, who is more inclined to his boss and takes a different stance than the shareholders who disagree.

Twilight and Lan Zhiyuan were quite satisfied with this.

But when it came to the next difficulty, everyone began to fall silent.

"Xu Jie is a generation of actresses, who have been out of film for many years, and now she can return to the film industry, which in itself is an incomparable advantage of any other film. The pot-bellied shareholder at the head said.

Several others also expressed concerns, especially since the themes and stories of these two films are basically the same, and we don't see any advantages.

"Isn't there anything else to use in a movie other than the actors?" Twilight's voice coldly broke through the noisy conference room, and he had rarely spoken except for the occasional nod or frown, and it seemed that this was the first time he had taken the initiative to speak after expressing concern for me.

The people present didn't understand why the wise and wise Twilight said this, and they couldn't help but look at the main seat with bated breath.

"We may indeed be at a disadvantage in terms of actors, but a good movie can only have attractive actors?" said to the group of people present, and more importantly, to Lan Zhiyuan.

Lan Zhiyuan shook his head solemnly, "Of course not." It's just that after saying this, Lan Zhiyuan's brows tightened, "The plot, picture quality, post-editing, shooting location, etc., are all what an excellent movie needs to have, but in terms of actors and plot, we are indeed at a disadvantage, and other aspects ......"
