Chapter 388: Tangled Jiang Digui
Wang Rachel finally signed an agreement with Jiang Digui, but he was more resolute than Ye Leiyang imagined, after three days of negotiations, the result of the agreement even Ye Leiyang was quite surprised, and he invested in the movie "The Gift of Room No. 7" as a screenwriter, with an amount of 1.25 million US dollars, accounting for 25% of the total investment.
In other words, Rachel Wang forcibly helped Ye Leiyang pick out five percent of the investment amount, and according to Ye Leiyang, this five percent will get five or even six times the return.
When sending Rachel Wang back to the United States, Ye Leiyang asked puzzledly: "Brother Rachel, didn't you say that we only have $1.2 million in our account, where did you get the remaining $50,000?" ”
Rachel Wang smiled: "I have saved it in the United States all these years." ”
"You, you're not going to empty your family, are you?" Ye Leiyang was stunned and asked in surprise.
Rachel Wang spread her hands: "Since you are so confident, what am I afraid of?" Don't forget, we're partners. ”
Ye Leiyang laughed, Wang Rachel's answer made him unable to refuse.
"By the way, I don't understand, what are you doing this for?" Wang Rachel suddenly opened her mouth and asked Ye Leiyang.
Ye Leiyang was stunned: "What do you mean?" ”
Rachel Wang sighed: "Others don't know, I have known your sister for so many years, what kind of person you used to be, she said to me, in my understanding, you are good enough now, but you seem to be tireless, and you still want to make yourself stronger, can you tell me why?" ”
After a pause, he frowned and asked, "Because of women?" ”
Ye Leiyang was silent for a moment. Finally, he whispered: "I once met a person, and she was the best she was at that time. But at that time, I was not the best me. The best of us. separated by the whole youth. So, I need to hurry up and make myself stronger and stronger, strong enough to be close to her. ”
Wang Rachel didn't speak again, some things were superficial, Ye Leiyang was able to say this, it was already for Tian Xiaoxu's sake.
After sending Wang Rachel away, Ye Leiyang's life returned to calm again, and Jiang Digui was really a resolute person. In less than a month, the crew has been formed, and during this period, he also called Ye Leiyang, hoping that he, the screenwriter, can shoot with the team.
After Ye Leiyang thought about it for a while, he still rejected Jiang Digui's proposal, according to his understanding of Jiang Digui, this is a tyrant on the set, and he may have to clash with the other party if he goes by himself, there is no need at all.
So. Ye Leiyang just made a face with many leading actors at the script reading meeting, and then simply played missing.
But even so, Ye Leiyang was quite shocked. In the Korean script discussion, the stars don't wear makeup. appears on the most real side, the actor can't sit when he is talking about the words, and he has to stand up and talk to the people who have a rivalry with him. Live performances. Only the screenwriter and director can sit there and watch. And no one of the main creators is allowed to be absent, Ye Leiyang saw with his own eyes that Liu Chenglong, who was the leading actor, was late because of the traffic jam. Begin to bow and apologize when you enter the door, both to younger and older actors. Because he's delaying someone else's time.
If that's all there is, Ye Leiyang also lamented the Koreans' adherence to self-discipline, but what happened next shocked him even more, these actors take the script discussion very seriously, compared with the Huaxia kind of going through the motions to the script, Koreans even rehearse this script discussion as a drama. Everyone has detailed reading notes. Compared with those actors in Huaxia who may not see people even when they turn on the film, the degree of dedication of the people can be seen.
Sometimes hard work doesn't always lead to success, but if you don't work hard, you won't succeed.
The movie "The Gift of Room No. 7" started very low-key, although he is optimistic about this script, but what Jiang Digui cares about is not his box office, but the warmth and pathos contained in this movie, which is likely to help him win awards at major Korean film festivals, and then sweep away his reputation as a commercial film director.
Ye Leiyang didn't care, he knew that when the whole movie was filmed, Jiang Digui would probably fall into a tangle, and he would have to help him at that time.
The time soon came to New Year's Day in 2004, Ye Leiyang had to admit that the professionalism of Koreans was outrageous, perhaps Jiang Digui saw some hope in the filming process, so he accelerated the filming process, and in just over two months, more than half of the filming was completed.
Of course, Ye Leiyang was not idle, he used the past few months to continue to learn what he should learn, and even went to audit several courses on business management.
Finally, when he was about to return to China for New Year's Day during the winter vacation, Ye Leiyang received a call from Jiang Digui.
"Writer Ye, do you have time, come out and meet." On the phone, Jiang Digui's voice was very tired, and it seemed that he hadn't closed his eyes for a few days and nights.
Ye Leiyang was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded and agreed: "Okay." ”
The two of them made an appointment to meet at a restaurant near Korea University, and as soon as they entered the door of the box, Ye Leiyang was stunned, Jiang Digui, who he had seen at least looking like a successful person, was now like being robbed, wearing a shabby cotton coat, and the whole person was unkempt, like a wanderer on the street.
"Director, what are you ......" Ye Leiyang looked at Jiang Digui suspiciously, if it wasn't for the fact that he hadn't gone to the wrong room, and the other party's eyebrows were sure to be Jiang Digui, he would even wonder if he had recognized the wrong person.
Jiang Digui smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand to invite Ye Leiyang to sit down, and then said helplessly: "Writer Ye, you have given me such a big problem." ”
Ye Leiyang's heart moved, but he smiled quietly: "Director, I'm confused about what you said, I haven't been to the crew recently, and I didn't even go to the last time you called me to join the dinner, when did I give you trouble?" ”
Jiang Digui waved his hand: "Writer Ye misunderstood, misunderstood, I didn't mean that." I understand that in order to give me the supreme authority in the crew, you did give me a lot of convenience during the filming process, and your script is absolutely perfect, so perfect that people can't change it in the slightest, but here's the problem, you tell me, how should I choose now? ”
"Choose?" Ye Leiyang pretended to be surprised and looked at Jiang Digui: "What does the director mean?" ”
Jiang Digui shook his head and didn't speak, but picked up the wine glass and drank it, Ye Leiyang knew that the scene he had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared.
