88 Chapter 88 Storytelling

Shi Ning looked at Shao Qian in shock, never thinking that Shao Qian would have an intersection with Yin Luo.

Seeing Shi Ning's shocked appearance, Shao Qian did not hide it, and briefly recounted what happened at the beginning.

After listening to Shao Qian's narration, Shi Ning's eyes became even more weird when he looked at him, and he sighed after a while: "I didn't expect your luck to be so good, speaking of which, since your debut, your acting career has been very smooth, except for some sunspots, it seems that you have not encountered problems in other aspects." ”

"That's," Shao Qian looked at him and said solemnly, "I'm a man with a golden finger!" ”

"Goldfinger?" Shi Ning raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "You can't be talking about Mr. Chi, right?" ”

"Him?" Shao Qian raised his eyebrows, then nodded, "He can only be regarded as one of them, my golden finger is not only him." In front of Shi Ning, he did not hide the relationship between himself and Chi Feng, in fact, since the relationship between the two was confirmed, he did not seriously tell Shi Ning about it, but he believed that with Shi Ning's IQ, he would definitely be able to guess this matter.

Sure enough, after hearing Shao Qian's words, Shi Ning was not too surprised, but picked up the script that was put aside: "Since Yin Luo recognizes your acting skills, it is not surprising that this script fell into your hands, what surprised me was why he handed over the script in the name of letting you direct." ”

Since "Sweet Love" became popular, there have been countless people who have come to Shao Qian to film and take over the scenes, Shi Ning can only roughly browse, first find out the inferior scripts and eliminate them, and then hand over the remaining scripts to Shao Qian for secondary appraisal.

With Shi Ning's ability, he can only judge extremely poorly, and in the batch of scripts that he thinks are better, it is impossible to distinguish which is better and which is worse.

Because of the workload, he didn't read every script carefully, but he still separated the two types of scripts that found Shao Qian as the starring actor and Shao Qian as the director, and Yin Luo's script was in the latter category.

"Why don't you just ask Yin Luo directly," Shao Qian raised his eyes, "Brother Shi, you help me contact Yin Luo to see when he is free, and we can talk in person." ”

"Okay, I'll contact him." Shi Ning handed Yin Luo's script to Shao Qian, and then picked up a stack of scripts that were almost unchanged, crying silently in his heart, he knew that he would read all the screenwriters of the scripts first, if he saw Yin Luo's name, he wouldn't have to work so hard to move this stack of scripts.

I have to say that Shi Ning's speed is indeed very fast, and it didn't take long for him to find Shao Qian again and tell him Yin Luo's answer.

"Yin Luo said that the script has been written, and he has nothing to do recently, so I hope that the sooner the time to meet, the better, I helped you make an appointment to meet at two o'clock in the afternoon, and the meeting place is at the Ruyi Teahouse." Shi Ning is Shao Qian's agent, and he knows Shao Qian's itinerary well, so he naturally knows when Shao Qian is free.

"Okay, then I'll prepare."

Ruyi Teahouse is an ancient teahouse, it is said that it has a history of hundreds of years, the teahouse has been passed down from generation to generation, and has prepared a lot of cherished tea, so it is impossible to go in and drink a cup of tea without thousands of yuan, but fortunately, the management of the teahouse is very strict, and many rich people are willing to meet and talk here.

Shao Qian didn't care about the location of the conversation, but he didn't want to be disturbed by people while he was talking, especially by disgusting people.

At about 1:40 in the afternoon, Shao Qian came to the Ruyi Teahouse, because he wore sunglasses and changed a little, no one knew him along the way, until he entered the Ruyi Teahouse, and when the waiter greeted him, he was slightly in a daze when he saw Shao Qian's appearance.

Fortunately, the waiter in the teahouse was experienced, and quickly said, "Hello, your location is in the Yuejiao Pavilion, please come with me." ”

Shao Qian followed behind the waiter and asked in a low voice, "Is there anyone else coming over besides me?" ”

"Yes," the waiter nodded, "There is a Mr. Yin who came over a few minutes ago, because the guest who had previously booked the seat specifically mentioned this matter, so when Mr. Yin came, he had already guided Mr. Yin to rest in the box." ”

Shao Qian nodded, he thought he had come very early, but he didn't expect Yin Luo to come earlier than him.

After a while, the two stood outside the box.

Shao Qian tilted his head: "Last pot of high-quality Biluochun, and then some snacks." ”

"Okay, Mr. Shao, I'll give the order."

After the waiter left, Shao Qian knocked on the door first, then entered the room, and first looked at the layout of the room.

His eyes fell on Yin Luo, who was sitting, and Shao Qian showed a shallow smile: "Mr. Yin, long time no see." ”

Shao Qian stretched out his hand, Yin Luo shook hands with him, and his expression was calm: "After the last time we met, I knew that we would have the opportunity to meet again." ”

Hearing Yin Luo's words, Shao Qian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "I didn't expect Mr. Yin to value me so much, it's really an honor." ”

Yin Luo glanced at him, his expression did not fluctuate much, as if Shao Qian's words did not mean anything to him: "After I went back that day, I checked you, you have only acted in two TV series, and one of them has not been broadcast yet." ”

Shao Qian smiled slightly, the TV series that was not broadcast was a historical drama, the TV series had just started filming when he went to film, and his role was only a very small part of the TV series, and the big head was still with other actors, and it was normal for him to shoot slowly, but he didn't expect that he had finished filming a movie and released it, and that TV series had not yet started.

"Director Zheng has always been very improving, so it must be time-consuming, and I think it will be another masterpiece after the broadcast starts." Shao Qian said that in the circle, Director Zheng has always been known for being strict, and 90% of the TV series he shoots are broadcast on the imperial court, not to mention insiders, even ordinary audiences are very familiar with Director Zheng's name, which is inseparable from his attitude.

Yin Luo looked at Shao Qian with a bit of scrutiny in his eyes: "So at that time, my perception of you, only the audition of "Xiu Xian" and "Jianghu is a Circle", compared with the two performances, I found that you do have acting skills, but just two kinds of performances are not enough to prove that you do have the strength to appear in my screenwriting work." ”

Yin Luo's words made Shao Qian full of curiosity, and he believed that there must be a "but" behind Yin Luo's words, otherwise the two would not be sitting here today.

Sure enough, Yin Luo continued: "So I found Director Zheng and got all the information from him when you played the young general, I didn't expect your play to be so exciting, and I didn't see this in "Jianghu is a Circle". He looked at Shao Qian with doubts in his eyes.

Shao Qian smiled covertly, he naturally wouldn't say that he hadn't cultivated well when he was filming "Jianghu is a Circle", so even if the moves were used, they were just fists and legs.

"The character of Wen Renhan pays attention to the elegant handsomeness, so his fights will be more fancy, which is pleasing to the eye, but the role of the young general is different, because this is a traditional historical TV series, coupled with the characteristics of the character itself, he will be more inclined to hand-to-hand combat when fighting people, so I chose a more practical move." Although he is hiding his weakness, what Shao Qian said is not all lies, at least in the character analysis of the two characters, what he said is correct.

And after listening to Shao Qian's words, Yin Luo also had to nod, and then looked at him with appreciation: "Your talent on the road of acting is indeed very high, so after watching the last role, I must have decided that you will be the starring role of my new script, but at that time my script was not finished, and I hadn't figured out who would be the director of the TV series, if the director of the TV series was someone like Li Lin, I would rather not shoot this script!" ”

Yin Luo's words made Shao Qian laugh, although Li Lin is stubborn, his strength in the director industry is indeed very strong, now that Yin Luo says this, I am afraid that he was really angry at the beginning, and a person like Yin Luo, he will not compromise.

However, although Yin Luo complained about Li Lin, Shao Qian couldn't answer, but said: "In any case, Director Li Lin is indeed very famous in the film industry. ”

Yin Luo glanced at Shao Qian, and finally smiled, but there was a joke in his smile: "Your kid is really nice to speak, saying that Li Lin is famous in the film industry, doesn't it mean denying his strength in the TV industry?" Don't pretend to me, tell me what you think of "Xiu Xian", I heard that "Xiu Xian" has a big funding gap recently? ”

Shao Qian was about to speak, when the waiter entered the door, brought tea and snacks, and then closed the door and left.

Shao Qian poured tea for Yin Luo, and the fragrance of tea wafted in the house, making people feel refreshed.

"It's not just me, I think Mr. Yin has already discovered the crux of the problem when he first auditioned, right?" This is also the main reason why Yin Luo walked away.

Yin Luo closed his eyes and took a sip of tea, and then sighed: "Li Lin is too stubborn, everyone knows this, but he is a good person in the film industry, why do you want to make a TV series?" It's not just to redeem the reputation of making several bad movies in a row before, but the more he is like this, the more he can't prepare to grasp the rhythm of the TV series. Of course, for a TV series, sometimes the problem of logic is not noticeable, but with Li Lin's character, the final expenditure of this TV series will definitely exceed the standard. ”

Yin Luo looked at Shao Qian with a smile: "You should know that TV series are not as profitable as movies, once the investment in "Xiu Xian" moves towards 670 million, it is very difficult to recover the cost, but if it is a movie, even if it is tens of millions of investments, it is possible to get back more than a billion or even billions." ”

Shao Qian knew that Yin Luo's last words were talking about himself, indeed, the filming of the entire drama "Sweet Love" only took more than 20 million, but the box office income that was finally presented in front of everyone was very considerable, which made many people blush. However, he thinks that Yin Luo also knows very well that it is difficult for a TV series to control costs, especially when encountering a director who specializes in making big-budget movies, spending money like running water is no longer a written term.

"Actually, I'm more curious about why Mr. Yin asked me to be the director of "Becoming a Demon", with Mr. Yin's influence in the circle, it's probably not difficult to find a suitable director, right?" Shao Qian is not surprised that Yin Luo will find himself as the leading actor, after all, he has always been very confident in his acting skills, but the director is a little difficult to figure out, there are experienced directors in the circle, if Yin Luo wants to find it, those directors are estimated to be swarming, and he can choose it.

"Of course, there are very important reasons to find you to be a director," Yin Luo looked at Shao Qian with a smile, "There are three reasons, one is because you have Chi's International behind you to support you, so this TV series doesn't have to worry about no investment at all." ”

Shao Qian raised his eyebrows, but did not interject, but continued to listen to Yin Luo's narration.

"The second point is because of your ability in marketing, I have checked all the situations since your debut, and every time you have a movement, it will cause a strong response from the audience, which is a very amazing thing, or this is because the 'audience popularity' is very good."

Shao Qian smiled, still not speaking.

"As for the third point, it's because of your directing ability," Yin Luo looked at Shao Qian seriously, "I've seen the movies you directed, to be honest, the skills of the movie are terrible, and your directing techniques are too immature, like a baby waiting to be fed, just like a baby waiting to be fed, just by being cute to attract the attention of adults." But I think you're good at storytelling, so I wanted to take a risk and hope that you would be the director of "Becoming a Demon". ”
