Chapter 30: Gao Huan
Huo Ziqiu opened the door of the office and strode in with long legs, Wang Donglei helped his glasses, looked sad inexplicably, and followed in.
An Ning of course followed behind the two of them, trying to reduce his sense of presence as much as possible.
In fact, there are not many offices on the 35th floor, just a few, and Gao Huan's office occupies half of the entire floor. The office is divided into two steps by a large black wooden desk, behind which is a bookcase that occupies an entire wall. Under the steps is the reception area, at this moment, Gao Huan and Zheng Wei are talking happily on the sofa in the reception area.
The style of the whole office is simple and natural, which makes people feel very comfortable, not like an office place, but like a living room at home.
Huo Ziqiu seemed to completely regard himself as a guest, sat down on the sofa opposite Gao Huan, leaned back on the sofa leisurely, reached out and picked up the teapot on the coffee table and poured himself a cup of tea.
After he finished this series of actions, Gao Huan, who had been chatting with Zheng Wei, finally turned around. He had a very square and serious face, and his complexion was very dark.
An Ning secretly thought that if Gao Huan and Huo Ziqiu sat together, they would definitely be able to produce a black-and-white impermanence effect.
"Director Zheng, is this the heroine you found?" Gao Huan's eyes bypassed Huo Ziqiu and fixed on An Ning. There was no expression on the face of the chairman of Fengyun, but An Ning could feel a powerful aura that only belonged to the superiors.
Under such an aura, Zheng Wei hurriedly nodded: "Yes, although he is a newcomer, his acting skills are very good." ”
An Ning bent down in a panic and said, "Hello, my name is Meng Anning, and I am here to sign a contract today." ”
Gao Huan half-jokingly said to Zheng Wei: "Can you act well if you look so timid?" After all, not everyone can pick up our Huo Yingdi's play. Does Director Zheng want to choose one in our wind and cloud and then decide? ”
Zheng Wei helped her speak: "A little girl who has just entered the industry, it is inevitable to be timid and nervous, just don't be nervous in front of the camera." Besides, the powerful actresses of Fengyun are all big names, I can't afford to invite them. He glanced at Huo Ziqiu, who didn't speak, and then said, "As for Gao Dong, you are worried that An Ning will not be able to take over the play, so you have to worry about this." ”
"Oh?" Gao Huan raised his eyebrows, and wanted to say something more. Huo Ziqiu, who had been deliberately ignored by him, spoke: "Chairman, you pulled Director Zheng up today, it shouldn't be for nagging." Hurry up and sign the contract, I'll have to make an announcement later. ”
Gao Huan's face twitched a few times, but he didn't get angry, and beckoned the secretary to come in and take Zheng Wei and An Ning out first: "Director Zheng, you and Miss Meng go to the thirtieth floor first, and Ziqiu and I still have something to talk about." ”
An Ning understands this, Gao Huan took great pains to call Zheng Wei to this floor to sign the contract, and it was not the intention of the drunkard to drink. What he was really looking for was Huo Ziqiu.
Listening to the "click" of the office door closing behind her, An Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief. She really doesn't like to deal with these big people, and she always feels uncomfortable and walking on thin ice.
This was the case in the previous life, when others were scrambling to get in front of the high-level people, she shrank back and hid if she could.
After Zheng Wei and An Ning left, Huo Ziqiu's posture did not change, but Gao Huan, staring at him tightly, the word "dissatisfaction" was almost engraved on his forehead.
"Gao Dong, do you think you should let Ziqiu sign the contract first?" Wang Donglei wiped the sweat on his forehead and considered speaking.
"Signing? What kind of contract to sign? Gao Huan suppressed his anger and sneered at Huo Ziqiu: "When did the company agree to you to take this movie?" ”
Huo Ziqiu didn't answer, looking like a broken jar, and Gao Huan was even more angry: "Your wings are stiff now, you don't have to discuss with the company when you take over the show, right?" When you get an actor, you think you're amazing, don't you? ”
"I didn't think about it that way."
"Didn't think so? Do you know how much effort the company has put into suppressing the you made on "The Sound of the Night"! ”
Huo Ziqiu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and said in disbelief: "This kind of trivial matter is also a matter in the eyes of the public relations department?" The year before last, who hit and ran away with a drunk driver, and who was arrested last year...... This kind of thing can make the public relations department anxious. ”
His tone was calm, unhurried, but Gao Huan's face turned green.
"In short, whether you agree with it or not, I must take this play."
"Huo Ziqiu, what do you think? Do you know that this period is a golden age, and several big directors have approached the company and want you to participate in their films. These movies are all going to be released during the Spring Festival, which one is not well-made and well-funded? It's good for you, and it's good for the company. I think your brain is in water, so you want to take Zheng Wei's play. ”
"Gao Huan, I also think it's very strange, are you thinking about how to maximize your benefits all the time?"
Gao Huan didn't feel displeased when he heard him call his name, but seemed to be relieved, turned to Wang Donglei and said, "You go out first, Wan Rui still has something to deal with over there." ”
Wan Rui is another female artist in Wang Donglei's hands, but in recent years, Wang Donglei has almost stopped caring about things other than Huo Ziqiu. Now Gao Huan said this, but he was just looking for an excuse to spend him.
"Huo, can you consider the interests of the company before you do anything?" Gao Huan sat down on the sofa, and his tone was a little irritable: "You are now a double actor, and you can't act recklessly." ”
"I've never been reckless. From the first day I stepped into this circle, what I pursued has not changed, and everything I do is working towards this goal. Huo Ziqiu raised his head and looked directly into Gao Huan's eyes, with a serious expression: "It's you, who have left behind what you are pursuing." Who was so ambitious to change the Chinese film industry? Now it has become the main supporter of bad movies every year. ”
In fact, Huo Ziqiu and Gao Huan used to study at the same university, and both were members of the film club. Later, Huo Ziqiu dropped out of school in his sophomore year, and then he broke off contact.
"Those are all fantasies, and fantasies are not to be eaten. I'm now in charge of the business, and I'm responsible for the livelihood of thousands of people, and if I had to make every film carefully, I would have been unable to make ends meet, and the company would have laid off employees a long time ago. Gao Huan stood up again, and his tone was excited: "Which company doesn't have a few bad movies?" This is the inevitable consequence of the operation of the market. Especially for a company with a big business like Fengyun, if it doesn't make bad movies, how can it afford such a big family. ”
