At the end of the day's work, when it was time to get off work, Xiahou Zhongying called Jiang Wenying to go to dinner together.

Jiang Wenying left her husband for the company and worked hard for ZX Group in the United States alone, although Xiahou Zhongying was a little heartless in treating the company's work, but she has always been very generous to her subordinates. When he felt that he owed Jiang Wenying and Gao Yunhao, he took care of Jiang Wenying meticulously, not only helping her pay for all her expenses in the United States, but also often calling her to eat together. In addition, the company often pays to reimburse the two of them for air tickets, so that the two couples can get together.

Just as they were about to leave the company, the three of them ran into Ashley, who was also about to leave the company and go home. Greenie, just call her along.

Kristen and Ashley. Greenie was originally a friend, and since Ashley signed into the ZX Group, she often attends various celebrity banquets with Xiahou Zhongying and Christine, driven by the two and operated by the ZX Group, and now she is already a well-known actress in Hollywood. After working together for more than half a year, Ashley now has a good relationship with Xiahou Zhongying and Jiang Wenying, and the three of them asked her to go to dinner together, and she had nothing to be polite about, so she happily joined.

"Boss, has the company had any ideas for investing in new movies recently?" During the dinner, Ashley looked at Xiahou Zhongying expectantly and asked.

Of course, ZX Group America is not a wealthy film giant in Hollywood, and it can only be regarded as a small company that cannot be smaller, but it is not small. Mainly because of the existence of the freak Xiahou Zhongying, there is a place for him. There is no worry about no news and exposure. Ashley also took a fancy to this, so she refused the invitation of other companies and joined the ZX Group.

In addition, unlike those companies that once wanted to sign her into its subsidiary, ZX Group is not a pure agent company, and its focus is not on artists, but on film and television investment. Perhaps in terms of the operation of artists, ZX Group is not as good as those large agent groups, but it also has its advantages, becoming an artist under ZX Group, in the future in the company's films, casting will inevitably give priority to their own people. Fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields. This is another point that Ashley likes ZX Group.

"This one. I don't have an idea yet, because I'm starting school. Xiahou Zhongying smiled: "But it's time for the company to consider the investment and shooting of the next movie, what do you think, Sister Wenying?" ”

"Our company has received a lot of scripts before." Jiang Wenying nodded and said with a smile: "It's just that the review department of those script companies is not optimistic, so they didn't choose it in the end." A few days ago, an employee of the company felt that it was not enough to rely on others to cast scripts. It's hard to pick a good script. It is suggested that the company can directly find some big-name screenwriters to create a script for us. ”

"But ......" paused. Jiang Wenying continued: "Almost all the famous screenwriters are the royal screenwriters of those giant groups, and we can't hire anyone at all. Then we switched direction and started with bestsellers. Invite some best-selling authors who can be adapted into movies to help us write the screenplay. ”

"Did that pay off?" Ashley asked eagerly. Since she finished filming "Juno", although the event has received a lot more advertisements than before, she has only played a supporting role in a movie called "King of California" in terms of actors, and she has no schedule recently, so she is very idle, so she naturally hopes that the company can start the production of the next movie as soon as possible. As an artist under the ZX Group, if the company produces a new movie, she will inevitably have a role.

"I fell in love with a best-selling book before, but I haven't talked about it, mainly because our company's reputation is still too small, and people don't like it." Jiang Wenying said with a smile: "However, we invited the author to attend the premiere of the Telluride Film Festival, and after watching "Juno", the author changed his impression of our company, and then the negotiations went smoothly, and it can be said that it has basically been decided." ”

"So our company is going to start the production of the next movie?" Ashley cheered and said excitedly.

"You can say the same thing." Jiang Wenying nodded with a smile, then hesitated, looked at Xiahou Zhongying and Christine and continued: "But the author has a request, she hopes that you will be the president, she has seen several of your movies, and she likes your shooting style very much." In addition, she also wants Miss Christine to participate in the performance as the heroine of the film. She said that after watching Miss Christine's performance in "Juno", she felt that she was very much in line with the heroine role in her novel. ”

Although Christine is Xiahou Zhongying's girlfriend, she is not from ZX Group, and for the sake of the company's artists, Jiang Wenying prefers Ashley to play the female lead instead of Christine. But the author fell in love with Christine, and ZX Group finally said that the author of the best-selling book bought the copyright, and invited her to be the screenwriter.

Christine was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. Since she and Xiahou Zhongying have been together, her fame has skyrocketed, and now there are continuous film appointments inviting her to participate in performances, advertisements have also been soft, and the schedule is full, and she is almost too busy. If it was someone else's invitation, she would have refused without thinking about it, and she didn't worry about having nothing to do now, but she was worried about too much. And compared to making movies, what she hopes more now is to spend more time with Xiahou Zhongying and deepen her relationship with him.

Since Zhilu Dao Xiahou Zhongying was forced by his grandfather's family to marry another woman, Christine has a great sense of crisis and is worried that she will be kicked out by accident, so she will stick to Xiahou Zhongying for only a little time during this time, and even want to push off most of her work, just to let the two spend more time together and increase the relationship between the two. In the past, sometimes she was a little unreasonable, but now she is obedient to him, and her careful thinking is self-evident, so she naturally expects him to be inseparable from herself.

Now that she has increased the time to stick with Xiahou Zhongying, how can Christine not want to? didn't think about his itinerary at all, and he couldn't wait to nod his head without even asking what the name of the script was, and he couldn't stop talking.

Ashley is a little depressed, she knows that she will definitely have a role in the production and shooting of movies by the company, but there is still a big gap between the protagonist and the supporting role, who doesn't want to strive to become the female number one? But now that the movie has not been decided, the duck of the female number one can almost be said to be cooked, and she can only fight for the role of a supporting role at most, and it is impossible to say that she is not depressed.

"That's a lot to ask for." Xiahou Zhongying was also stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "This is not a hasty decision, you also know that I applied for two degree majors, and the course schedule is very tight, and there is not much free time." And let me direct, and I have to read the script. ”

Jiang Wenying also knew that Xiahou Zhongying was really busy after going to school, and now it is good to be able to go to the company once a week. With Xiahou's family background, he is not bad for money, if he tricks him into making movies for the company and gives up his studies, it is estimated that he will be cut by Xiahou Shang again.

"President, you can use the summer and winter vacations to shoot." After pondering for a while, Jiang Wenying looked up at him and said with a smile: "You can use the summer or winter vacation to make a movie in a year, firstly, it will not affect your studies, and secondly, you can use your current fame and influence to support the development of the company." After "Juno" was shown at two film festivals, you are now indisputably the most promising and promising talented new star director in Hollywood. Judging from the reactions of audiences and critics at these two film festivals, "Juno" will inevitably get a good result at the box office, and your fame will inevitably rise again. If you take advantage of the "Juno" trend to announce your next movie, it will immediately attract everyone's attention, and it would be a shame not to take advantage of this opportunity. ”

"Let's see." After thinking about it silently, Xiahou Zhongying smiled and said: "It's not that the company can't leave me, and the director doesn't have to be made by our company itself, we can also invite other directors to participate in the directing." By the way, having said all this, we still don't know what the name of the script is called. ”

"Twilight." (To be continued......)
