Chapter 395: Negotiating the Script

As soon as Wang Zichuan arrived at the door of the company, he unexpectedly saw Xu Ke, this old boy had made an appointment at two o'clock in the afternoon, and he must have planned to go to Shi Nansheng so early.

"Lao Xu!"

Xu Ke turned around in surprise and said in surprise: "Mr. Wang! ”

Wang Zichuan said without blushing and without a heartbeat: "I didn't expect to see you as soon as I came out, since you are here, let's talk about the film "Sword and Horse". ”

Xu Ke nodded reluctantly, he wanted to go to Shi Nansheng to ask for advice, "Dao Ma Dan" is a film he values very much, he already has a candidate for the protagonist, he regrets that he promised Wang Zichuan to cast last time, and he came over early today, just to ask Shi Nansheng how he can save the situation, not only not to offend Wang Zichuan, but also to use the actor he expected.

Wang Zichuan said with a smile: "The script of "Dao Ma Dan" has been written! After listening to your idea that day, I thought this film was very interesting. ”

Xu Ke had a bitter face, the more Wang Zichuan paid attention to it, the more worried he was about the casting, and said: "I have already brought the script, and Wang can always take a look at it later, if it can be filmed, I want to start shooting early." ”

Wang Zichuan turned his head and said lightly: "Now the film studio has been overloaded, not long after the sequel to "The True Color of Heroes" was drawn, and the new "A Chinese Ghost Story" has not been completed, and now it is going to shoot "Dao Ma Dan", in less than half a year, the studio has produced three films. ”

For Xu Ke Film Studio, Wang Zichuan is becoming more and more vigilant, he thought that Xu Ke was a street goods, but he didn't expect that making several movies in a row would be big hits, one after another, with a very soaring entertainment style, he didn't want to raise tigers.

Xu Ke replied: "I had an idea for these films in Xinyi City, but Mr. Lei has never let me show them. ”

Wang Zichuan nodded quietly, and decided to hold the remaining shares of the film studio tightly in his hands, no matter what Xu Ke said, he didn't plan to sell it to him again.

The two came to the office one after the other. Although Qiu Shuzhen was surprised that Xu Ke arrived early, she immediately poured a cup of tea for him, remembering Chen Farong's request in her heart, standing beside Wang Zichuan, planning to raise it immediately when she had time.

Xu Ke handed the script to Wang Zichuan and explained: "Because the film borrowed the set of Clear Water Bay, Miss Fang Yihua arranged several roles. ”

Wang Zichuan said unhappily: "This Fang Yihua has to take advantage of everything!" ”

Xu Ke didn't reply, if Wang Zichuan refused, he would have to help him find a set, and he wouldn't suffer.

"Forget it. This time, I promised her that the cinema under Tengfei Entertainment has already started construction, and it won't be long before we have our own cinema. Wang Zichuan mentioned the studio, and sure enough, he saw Xu Ke's excited smile.

Looking at the script of "Dao Ma Dan", Wang Zichuan slowly became fascinated, he hadn't seen this film, but now when he reads the script, he feels very good, this film must be a big hit.

In the early Republic of China, the country was in turmoil. The warlords divided the people and made a living. Cao Yun is the daughter of the great warlord General Cao and a patriot. However, he did not want to see his father help Yuan Shikai borrow huge sums of money from foreign banks in the name of the state, which made the country's finances even worse, so he secretly contacted the revolutionaries. But on one side is the state. On the one hand, his father also made Cao Yun fall into an inner struggle because he didn't know how to choose. Bai Niu grew up in the opera troupe Chunhe class since she was a child, and was regarded as a maid by the father of the opera troupe owner, and she has always wanted to perform on stage because she is obsessed with singing, but she has no chance; Xianghong is a money-hungry courtesan. When a warlord was fleeing, he stole a large box of jewelry from his family, but accidentally transported the jewelry into Chunhe's class.

Wang Zichuan closed the script and said with a smile: "This film is good. Contrary to "The True Color of Heroes", it is mainly about women, which is good! ”

Xu Ke sighed secretly, it seems that Wang Zichuan is going to meddle no matter what, he calculated the gains and losses in his heart, and decided to keep Ye Qianwen as a role, Ye Qianwen is an actor he signed a contract, and he also has a little meaning to her, she should be very happy to help her fight for a role.

Wang Zichuan said slowly: "There are three main characters in the script, one is Cao Yun, a woman who does not let her eyebrows be bearded, has the country in her heart, and is a positive character, the second is a white girl, with a simple mind, and the third is a concubine Xiangjiang, a woman who is greedy for money. ”

Xu Ke hesitated for a moment, and said: "Mr. Wang, I plan to let Ye Qianwen play the role of Bai Niu, and the other two will be decided by Mr. Wang." ”

Wang Zichuan said unhappily: "The script was written by you, why is the role set by me, do you think I am such a domineering boss?" ”

Xu Ke was at a loss, Wang Zichuan was indeed this kind of domineering boss in his mind, in the first part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", he had to use Wang Guxian, and in the second part of "A Chinese Ghost Story", he had to use Zhang Xueyou and Zhou Hailin.

Depend on! This Xu Ke is too faceless, isn't it because Wang Guxian starred in "A Chinese Ghost Story", as for holding grudges until now?

"Lao Xu, if you have any ideas, just say it."

Xu Ke decided to test it and said, "Cao Yun, I plan to let Lin Qingxia act." ”

"Lin Qingxia?" Wang Zichuan was surprised, not that he didn't think she was suitable, but not long after he agreed with Lin Qingxia, he fulfilled his promise.

Xu Ke analyzed: "Although Lin Qingxia used to be a girl who starred in Qiong Yao dramas, I think she has a trait, cutting off her long hair has another meaning, very similar to Cao Yun, I'm talking about heroism!" ”

Wang Zichuan nodded and said with a smile: "Okay!" Just choose Lin Qingxia. ”

Xu Ke said excitedly: "Thank you, Mr. Wang, I will immediately send someone to contact Miss Lin, I heard that Miss Lin plans to develop in Hong Kong, I think she will not refuse." ”

"Don't worry about that!" Wang Zichuan waved his hand, and seeing that Xu Ke didn't understand, he said confidently: "Lin Qingxia's matter is wrapped up in me." ”

Xu Ke looked at Wang Zichuan gratefully, in his heart Lin Qingxia is a very hard bone, acting in different styles, it is a double-edged sword for actors, although success can broaden the way of acting, but failure, not to mention the impact on popularity, the film hit the street and was forced to reduce the salary.

Wang Zichuan asked: "And the role of Xiangjiang, who are you going to choose?" ”

Xu Ke thought about it for a while, and denied Ye Tong, Wang Zichuan was rarely enlightened once, and he should repay the favor.

"Wang Guxian's image is good, I think she can give it a try."

Wang Zichuan shook his head and said: "Xiaoxian has already accepted other film contracts, thanks to your "A Chinese Ghost Story", she is already the most beautiful female ghost in people's hearts, this film has Yuan Di joining, and the prospects are good." ”

Xu Ke gave up Wang Guxian and thought about the company's artists, since he wanted to please Wang Zichuan, he had to find an actor who had a good relationship with him.

"Mr. Wang, how is Miss Zhang Meng?"

Wang Zichuan looked at Xu Ke unexpectedly, why are they all his women?

"Zhang Meng also has a film contract, if the film is postponed to September, Zhang Meng can join."

Xu Ke immediately shook his head, he also planned to start the film before July, and release it in theaters in September, taking advantage of the aftermath of the summer file to make a fortune.

"Then does Miss Ye Zimei have a schedule?"

Wang Zichuan immediately shook his head, Xu Ke is this flattering or sarcastic? Even if Ye Zimei has a schedule, he can't agree.

Xu Ke remembered that the last time Shi Nansheng mentioned Zhong Yihong, she seemed to have an unclear relationship with Wang Zichuan.

"Mr. Wang, I think Miss Zhong Yihong is also very suitable, Miss Zhong not only has a wide acting path, but also has high popularity, which can increase the box office of the film."

This time Xu Ke learned a lesson, the first few times he asked, 'What does Mr. Wang think', he was always rejected, and this time he will not be rejected again.

Wang Zichuan nodded, he and Zhong Yihong were still pale, and said with a smile: "Zhong Yihong is good." ”

Xu Ke smiled in his heart, what is pretending to be high, isn't he being seen through by himself?

Wang Zichuan said: "Since "Dao Ma Dan" is the idea you put forward, you will be the director, as for the producer, I will send someone to the crew, I don't want something like "A Chinese Ghost Story" to happen." ”

Xu Kedao: "Mr. Wang, rest assured, I will pay attention to the budget." ”

Wang Zichuan returned the script to Xu Ke and instructed: "You go back and hand in the budget, I want detailed accounts, don't write the words 'other expenses' like "A Chinese Ghost Story", and I will be shot with such a budget in the future." ”

Xu Ke's face turned red, the budget for "A Chinese Ghost Story" was written by him, and there were several words of 'other expenses' in it.

"Mr. Wang, I'll go back first."

Wang Zichuan said with a smile: "It's not early, we'll go to the cafeteria to eat later." ”

Xu Ke nodded, and after a reprimand from his wife Shi Nansheng, he also realized the necessity of having a good relationship with Wang Zichuan, and it was also a good thing to be able to dine together.

Qiu Shuzhen saw Xu Ke leaving, finally relaxed, and immediately straddled Wang Zichuan's lap.

"Ah Zhen, what are you going to do?" Wang Zichuan has palpitations, he is not in the mood to do that now, and if he deals with Qiu Shuzhen again, he will really collapse.

Qiu Shuzhen said angrily: "What's the matter, look at what you're scared of!" ”

Wang Zichuan smiled wryly, hugged Qiu Shuzhen's small waist, and explained: "Didn't I promise Xu Ke to eat together, we are messing around here, and it's not good to wait if you want others." ”

Qiu Shuzhen said shamefully: "Who wants to mess with you, I'm leaving tomorrow, and you don't comfort me." ”

Haven't you been comforted a long time ago! Wang Zichuan sighed secretly, hugged Qiu Shuzhen tightly, and said, "Don't worry, I'll cover you every day." ”

Qiu Shuzhen smiled: "It's pretty much the same! ”

Wang Zichuan pinched Qiu Shuzhenqiong's nose and said: "Don't worry now, look at Amin, now there is a lot of scenery, the salary has soared to 800,000, and she is already a top actress." ”

Qiu Shuzhen said coquettishly: "Then I have to be like Amin." ”

Wang Zichuan said: "For your sake, I deliberately postponed the sequel to "God of Gamblers" for two months, and when you finish learning the basics in the training class, you can be the heroine!" ”

"Achuan!" Qiu Shuzhen bit her red lip, her eyes were strange, as if she was thanking some other parties, and her little hands unconsciously touched there.

Wang Zichuan hurriedly asked, "Ah Zhen, do you have anything to say to me?" ”

Qiu Shuzhen remembered the matter, withdrew her hand, and said with a smile: "Ah Chuan, have you chosen a new secretary?" (To be continued......)
