Xiao Chu came out of the community in the spring, went to a small park nearby, and was about to run and exercise, when suddenly a middle-aged man came out of the slope and almost collided with him.

"I'm sorry!" Xiao Chu subconsciously apologized, and wanted to bypass and continue running.

As a result, the middle-aged man moved and stood in front of him again.

Now he sensed that something was wrong, looked at the other party and asked, "Uncle, who are you?"

This middle-aged man is Zhu Yunhai, who has been waiting for the rabbit for a long time.

Hearing Xiao Chu's words, he immediately squeezed out a smile that he thought was gentle, and said, "You are Xiao Chu, right? Hello, my name is Zhu Yunhai!"

Xiao Chu squinted, this is prepared, he actually knows himself.

But he still nodded and admitted: "Yes, I'm Xiao Chu, and your name is Zhu Yunhai?

Zhu Yunhai said with a bright smile: "I am the assistant director of Spark Film and Television, and there is something I want to talk to you about." ”

Assistant Director of Spark Films?

Xiao Chu's eyebrows moved, and he instantly understood the other party's purpose of finding himself.

Spark Videos and Dolphin Videos are competitors.

Spark Video's Spark Film and Television, and Dolphin Film and Television are also peer-to-peer competitors.

The executives of Spark Film and Television looked for themselves, and they also found the filming point of "Love Apartment", which is nothing more than that.

Blinking, Xiao Chu said: "It turned out to be a friend of Youzhan, I'm sorry, I'm out to exercise today, and I don't have time to chat." ”

Zhu Yunhai was not surprised by this answer, after all, whoever was replaced would be a little wary if he was suddenly found by someone from the opposite family.

But he was ready, and said loudly: "Mr. Xiao, you just need to give me three minutes, I won't delay your workout, and we can even talk while running, do you think it's okay? I also like to run." ”

Xiao Chu looked at this middle-aged man who looked like he was holding a bamboo in his chest, and thought for a while: "Then you can say it." ”

Zhu Yunhai smiled proudly in his heart, willing to listen to him, and the matter was already half successful.

Then he said in a sincere and enthusiastic tone: "Mr. Xiao, since the time is short, then I will say it bluntly, I came to you to ask you to join us Spark Film and Television." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, please listen to my sincerity before making a decision. ”

"I am here to invite you on behalf of our director, Mr. Sun Yuanwang, if it weren't for Mr. Sun's urgent matter and he had to go to the imperial capital, he would have come to invite you in person. ”

Xiao Chu looked at his watch and said, "There are still two minutes and fifty seconds." ”

Zhu Yunhai said calmly: "You just entered the industry this year, and your first independently written drama "River God" reached the excellent level, and the second drama "Love Apartment" soared directly into a hit. ”

"This achievement is really eye-catching, it can be called a brilliant one, I can say very responsibly, you are the first newcomer in the screenwriting industry in the past five years, or even ten years, to achieve such outstanding results!"

"Our director noticed you when "River God" was first launched, and it was only because of some delays that I asked me to meet you now. ”

"There are two minutes left. Xiao Chu looked at his watch again.

Zhu Yunhai said sincerely: "All in all, we invited you on the basis of a full understanding of you, not on a whim, and in a hurry. ”

"In other words, I am here to invite you to join Spark Film and Television, it is serious and sincere, please believe us!"

Xiao Chu frowned, this assistant director's communication skills are not good, the pace is so slow, and he hasn't gotten to the point yet.

If it was changed to writing a script, and the beginning was so mother-in-law, the audience would have run away.

Zhu Yunhai saw Xiao Chu's impatience, quickly omitted a large part of the back, and said directly: "In order to express our sincerity, we will provide Mr. Xiao with four times the treatment of dolphins." ”

That is, whether it is the basic salary, manuscript fee, or performance bonus, what you get in Spark Film and Television will be five times that of Dolphin. ”

"In addition, as long as you agree, after signing the contract, you will immediately receive a signing fee of 500,000 yuan and a settlement fee of 1 million. ”

As long as you join Spark Film and Television, we will make an exception for you and help you apply for a third-level or even second-level title before the end of the year, so as to help you become a god screenwriter as soon as possible!"

Five-fold treatment, 1.5 million signing fee plus settling-in allowance, plus job title application.

This sincerity sounds like a lot of stuff.

But.

Xiao Chu said with a smile: "Mr. Zhu, your pie painting is quite tempting, but it is still not sincere enough." ”

Zhu Yunhai was stunned, "What do you say?"

Xiao Chu said: "Let's talk about five times the salary and one and a half million two fees, it looks amazing, but I can get it in Dolphin." ”

"The prize money I have for writing 'Love Apartment' now is more than that combined. And as long as I stay in Dolphin for five years and write another hit drama, I will get a certain option, so this is not attractive to me. ”

"Of course, the real question is not this, but the title you said at the end. ”

"I remember that two years ago, there was a senior screenwriter in your Spark Film and Television who fell out with the company because of his professional title, and was not only swept away, but also owed a year and a half of manuscript fees, and finally got it back by a lawsuit. ”

"Your so-called help to apply for a promotion is really impressive. ”

"This ......" Zhu Yunhai was stunned for a while.

I didn't expect Xiao Chu to mention this.

The senior screenwriter of Spark Film and Television met the conditions and could upgrade his title, but he was stuck for other reasons, and was finally swept out of the house and went to court, which actually caused a lot of trouble in the industry.

Outsiders haven't forgotten it, but Spark Film and Television itself has forgotten it first.

It's also interesting.

Xiao Chu turned to leave, not interested in paying any more attention.

Zhu Yunhai caught up and said, "Mr. Xiao, these conditions can be negotiated again, and the signing fee and settlement fee can also be increased to two million ......."

"No need. Xiao Chu interrupted.

I'm really not interested.

Not to mention the remuneration, he wrote "Love Apartment", and the bonus alone was two million, which is not less than these two fees.

And.

Xiao Chu turned around and said: "Mr. Zhu Yunhai, I remember that a big fool once said that there are only two reasons for employees to resign: first, the money is not enough, and second, the heart is wronged. ”

"I don't have either. ”

"So, let's have a chance to work together again in the future. ”

After saying that, Xiao Chu ignored him and ran away directly.

Zhu Yunhai looked at his distant back, stunned.

"Didn't give enough money?

Who is this big fool?

......

In the evening, Xiao Chu went to the filming site and explained two scenes to Zhao Huohuo, who played Zeng Xiaoxian, on the spot.

When he finished work, he remembered that the little witch Zhong Lingling asked for signed photos of "Zeng Xiaoxian" and "Lu Ziqiao" last time, so he asked Zhao Huohuo and Lu Bo for a few, and planned to send them to Zhong Lingling the next day.

After returning to the room and lying on the bed after washing, he logged on WeChat and sent a message to Xia Tingcicada.

Xiao Shisanlang: Today, the people from Spark Film and Television came to me privately and wanted me to go to them.

After almost half an hour, Xia listened to the cicada before replying.

Xia listened to the sound of cicadas: I just returned to the hotel.

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: What do you think?

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: Do you want to go?

Seeing Xia Tingcicada reply three times in a row, Xiao Chu couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

From the number of messages a girl replies to your WeChat, you can know her attitude towards you.

A lot of licking dogs chatted with the goddess, all of them licked the dog and said a lot, and the goddess only replied with one or two sentences, or one or two words.

It's sad to watch.

Summer Listening to Cicadas...... It's only like that when tsundere.

He hastened to reply.

Xiao Shisanlang: No, the reviews of Spark Video in the past two years are not good, and there are too many black spots. I stayed well at Dolphins, of course I didn't go.

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: Oh.

Is this a slap in the face, or is the cicada goddess arrogant again?

Three seconds later, Xia Tingcicada's new message came again.

Xia listened to the cicada: Then what is your career plan?

Xiao Chu snickered, fortunately, he was not slapped in the face.

Reply in a good mood.

Xiao Shisanlang: There is no plan, that is, to become a god in three years, platinum in five years, and to the top of the film and television industry in ten years.

Xiao Shisanlang: Isn't it very unpursued, too salty?

The imperial capital is happy to come to the hotel.

Xia Tingcicada couldn't help but pout when he saw these two sentences, and then sent a disdainful emoji.

Xiao Ai was sorting out some materials to be used tomorrow next to her, and glanced at Xia Tingcicada secretly, and couldn't help blinking when she saw Sister Cicada's face looking disdainful, but actually smiling.

I talked to Mr. Xiao again!

I just returned to the hotel, and I haven't even changed my clothes, so I talked again, is it so sticky?

Sister Cicada, you are a cold and arrogant cicada goddess, when did you become so childlike?

Is Mr. Xiao's charm really that great?

The little quail doesn't understand.

......

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: What was your biggest wish when you were a child?

The conversation unconsciously shifted to this.

In the room of the temporary base, Xiao Chu thought for a while and replied.

Xiao Shisanlang: I remember when I was in the first or second grade of primary school, there was an article in the Chinese book called "How Vast the Motherland is".

Xiao Shisanlang: It was written there, "In the Great Xing'an Mountains, snowflakes are still flying." On both sides of the Yangtze River, willow branches have sprouted. On Hainan Island, flowers are blooming everywhere, and our motherland is so vast. ”

Xiao Shisanlang: Since then, I have thought that in the future, I will travel all over the great rivers and mountains of the motherland to see how vast our country is.

Xiao Shisanlang: But just like the song "I want to go to Guilin" that I learned later, when I have time, I don't have money, and when I have money, I don't have time.

Xiao Shisanlang: In the past, I didn't have any money, and I didn't even go out to the county before college, but now I don't lack money for travel, but it's hard to find time.

Want to travel all over the country?

Seeing this, Xia Tingcicada's eyes lit up slightly, and then replied with a tap of his fingertips.

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: It will be in the future.

Xiao Shisanlang: Maybe.

Xia listens to the sound of cicadas: It will definitely be!

Xia Tingcicada emphasized again.

Xiao Chu did not refute.

The two chatted for a while, and said goodnight to each other before twelve o'clock.

......

The next day, Wednesday, December 16.

Xiao Chu continued to write and watch the play.

At noon, the teacher Li Wenqian came over and asked him to have dinner together.

After going to the restaurant, ordering food, and pouring tea for the teacher, Xiao Chu asked, "Teacher, do you have something to do with me?"

Li Wenqian got straight to the point and said: "Ah Chu, has Spark Film and Television been looking for you in the past two days?"

Xiao Chu was a little surprised, he didn't want to hit the teacher so quickly.

But he didn't hide it, and replied: "Yes, Zhu Yunhai, the assistant to the director of Spark Film and Television, found me yesterday and wanted me to change jobs." ”

"I actually found it. Li Wenqian did not hide it: "Mr. Ji invited me to dinner last night, saying that someone from the company met this Zhu Yunhai in the café outside your shooting point at noon yesterday. ”

"Mr. Ji guessed that he was coming at you, he was afraid that looking for you directly would make you more careful, so he found me and wanted me to ask you what you thought and express his importance to you. ”

He bluntly said that what the spark can give you, the dolphin can give you, and he can give more and better, and I hope you can stay in the dolphin film and television with peace of mind. ”

Li Wenqian took a sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued: "I can see that Ji Yuanshi is quite sincere, but we are masters and apprentices, no matter what the company thinks, tell my teacher what you think?"

Xiao Chu said: "Of course I won't go, I have already rejected Zhu Yunhai." ”

Hearing this answer, Li Wenqian nodded happily and said, "Very good, you were not blinded by some temptations sent to the door, which is very good, and did not disappoint the teacher." ”

"Good birds choose trees to perch, as your teacher, if there is really a better place to go, of course I will not object, but Spark Film and Television is not a good choice. ”

"I won't say why, you should know. ”

"It's not for nothing that Spark Video can go from second place that year to competing with Dolphins for third place now, and even can't compete for it. ”

Xiao Chu smiled and said, "Teacher, I know." ”

Li Wenqian said sincerely: "Seriously, it's not because of Mr. Ji's meal last night, nor because I'm the planning consultant of Dolphin, I really think that Dolphin is currently a better platform, I hope you can stay here and make a few good works in a down-to-earth manner." ”

"If the dolphin changes in the future, it is not suitable, and you are not happy to stay, and it is not too late to change it, then your resume will definitely look better, and the capital of the owner will be more sufficient. ”

Xiao Chu nodded, "Thank you for the teacher's guidance, I remember, I won't think nonsense, I must put my mind into writing a play." ”

Hearing this, Li Wenqian was completely relieved.

Xiao Chu smiled and filled the teacher with tea again.

He was very touched that the teacher could put aside his identity as a dolphin consultant and tell himself these things so that he would not let himself go the wrong way.

There are no perfunctory teachers either.

From Dolphin's arrangement of the old director Yan Gaoxiang and the subsidy to the drama director Wu Chengliang, he felt that this was a warm and warm company.

In such a company, he is comfortable and down-to-earth.

At least in the short term, he won't have the idea of changing his doorway.

After finishing business, the teachers and students had a relaxed and happy meal.

After eating, Xiao Chu paid for it and bought two bottles of wine for the teacher by the way.

......

Imperial capital.

Xia Tingcian filmed the MV for several hours in the morning, rested at noon, and will go to Xiangshan to shoot a few more sets in the afternoon.

At half past two, just as she was about to take the car to Xiangshan, she suddenly received a somewhat unfamiliar call on her mobile phone.
