I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 287: "The Hidden Corner" Investment Issues

Chen Shuang finally chose to agree.

However, for an actor like him, the relevant contracts and conditions need to be negotiated slowly.

Xu Kong’s main purpose was just to tie Chen Shuang and Feng Ge together.

It’s not that I think I can bring much benefit by relying on the other person alone.

Therefore, the conditions given are relatively loose.

What Chen Shuang values ​​most is the freedom to take on different roles, which of course is not a big problem.

In the subsequent dramas, if there are suitable ones for each other, Xu Kong is confident that he can impress Chen Shuang and make him agree.

However, in addition to Chen Shuang, Fengge also signed a number of powerful middle-aged actors this time based on the other party's recommendation.

These actors actually have no shortage of roles to play, but most of them are supporting roles. After so many years in the industry, they have never become truly famous.

For some other large film and television companies, they are a group of people who are not valued that much.

But in Xu Kong's eyes, it was completely different.

Many of the dramas I have in my hands require middle-aged actors with good acting skills.

For example, in the drama "The Bad Kids", several supporting roles require veteran actors.

Including some supporting roles in "The Beginning" like Auntie Guo, the bus driver, etc. Although they don't have many roles, the characters themselves are all unique in their own way, and this group of people is perfectly suitable.

Xu Kong didn't expect that Chen Shuang indirectly saved a lot of effort in casting for the two dramas.

Of course, except for some more important characters.

For some young roles, Xu Kong tried his best to let Su Meng and others choose from the newcomers in the company.

This kind of role doesn't have many lines, but it is definitely a very good opportunity for a newcomer.

As far as Xu Kong has learned so far, among Fengge's many new actors, almost none can be used directly.

However, there will definitely be a large number of roles in the future. Compared with some other companies, Fengge’s upcoming shooting plans and projects, and the speed of progress and rise of this group of newcomers under Fengge will definitely be quite amazing.

Regarding "The Bad Kids", the most difficult part in the future is nothing more than the casting issue.

The three children who have quite a few roles in the film are indeed not that simple.

That’s right, Xu Kong didn’t plan to act in this drama himself.

If Xu Kong insists on playing the three minor roles, there won’t be any big problems.

After all, Xu Kong is not that old, and it is not difficult for him to wear a school uniform and play a high school student.

But after thinking about it, Xu Kong chose to give up.

Because Xu Kong had decided some time ago to accept Su Meng's invitation to play the male lead Xiao Heyun in "The Beginning".

The main thing is that the filming locations for both dramas are not troublesome.

It can be filmed in the same city.

In this case, Xu Kong can take care of both ends.

Xu Kong also felt that his personal performance would be a better guarantee for "The Beginning".

It's not that he doesn't trust director Su Meng, but he thinks that since he can take both into account, it would be better to be safe.

As for "The Bad Kids", we can just select new actors for the three roles that are under the age limit.

"Brother Xu Kong, I really like this script."

It was originally Xu Kong's plan to let Youyou play the role of Li Shiqing.

Although he knew that Youyou would definitely not refuse, Xu Kong still needed to show the script to her first and ask for her opinion.

In fact, Youyou and the actor who played Li Shiqing in the original film don’t look particularly alike. The only similarity is probably their age.

But this role is not very difficult, and with Song Youyou's current acting skills, she is fully capable of handling it.

But for Song Youyou, she really likes this story.

The most important thing is that she can play opposite Xu Kong, and they even have a kissing scene at the end.

However, compared to "The Bad Kids", which is more realistic and dark in style, although "The Beginning" also has a lot of tragic elements in the story, the overall style of painting tends to be warm in color.

It can be said that although both can be classified as suspense dramas, they are indeed far apart in terms of style and plot.

Of course, in comparison, there are still some so-called illogicalities in "The Beginning".

Xu Kong did not aim for this drama to gain high reputation, but simply hoped that it would become a so-called hit drama.

For Feng Ge now, commercial success is indeed something he urgently needs to prove himself.

"Reached?"

Xu Kong was awakened by his assistant, and Guo Zihao followed Su Meng to inspect the filming locations.

This time when he came to Hangzhou, Xu Kong was accompanied by another assistant arranged for him by Guo Zihao from the studio.

"You go to the hotel first, I have something to do here."

After leaving the airport, Xu Kong started to make arrangements.

The main reason was that he planned to go directly to Yu Yaqing's residence, so it would be better for him to go there alone.

That’s right, Fengqing Entertainment is actually one of the investors of “The Hidden Corner” this time.

This was the promise he had made to Mr. Yu.

Of course, in addition to being a shareholder of Fengge, Xu Kong is also one of the bosses of Fengqing Entertainment.

Fengqing Entertainment will also be involved in some subsequent new dramas.

Mr. Yu’s home password has not been changed yet.

Xu Kong opened the door and went in directly.

"Please sit down for a while. Dinner may take some time."

Yu Yaqing knew in advance that Xu Kong was coming. She was not surprised to see Xu Kong. She walked over and kissed him lightly before speaking.

Today, Yu Yaqing was wearing loose home clothes and an apron. Her long hair was neatly tied up on her head. She looked less like a strong woman and more like a good wife and mother.

Of course, it can be seen that Mr. Yu still pays great attention to maintenance.

Although she dresses maturely, she is still as beautiful as ever and has the unique charm of a mature woman.

“I’m cooking!”

Yu Yaqing, who was picking vegetables, felt a large hand around her waist and spoke.

In fact, there was something strange but more familiar about Xu Kong, which had already made her distracted.

There was no way. The two of them were not in the same city. In fact, Yu Yaqing and Xu Kong had not seen each other for a long time, even longer than Su Zhi.

In addition, Mr. Yu is in his prime, he is already 30 years old, and due to work, he needs to relieve stress.

So at this time Xu Kong just hugged herself, even if there was no other movement, Yu Yaqing's body had already undergone different changes.

After Xu Kong took the initiative, he found that what Mr. Yu was wearing today was a pair of tight yoga pants that were very close-fitting.

Although there are no classic stockings as a match, it is easy to survey the complete terrain.

“I can’t cook this meal anymore.”

Under Xu Kong's harassment, Yu Yaqing simply put down the dish in her hand and chose to give up.

"Aren't you going to have dinner?"

She looked back with a sad look at Xu Kong, who was obviously in high spirits and whose hands were not at all honest.

"What to eat..."

It was obvious that he had no intention of letting the other party leave.

Instead, he said, "You do your thing, and I'll do mine."

"Let's not disturb each other."

Yu Yaqing didn't know how to complain.

What is this guy thinking? How can she concentrate on cooking under such circumstances?

But soon, the sudden cool feeling made Yu Yaqing exclaim.

It is obvious that Xu Kong is serious.

She had originally planned to put aside what she was doing for the time being.

But who knew that the other party was obviously serious and really asked her to continue picking vegetables.
Both of them were standing.

Completely different from normal circumstances.

I have to say that although Mr. Yu takes the initiative every time, it is indeed a very special experience.

But at this moment, it was another feeling.

"Mr. Yu, continue picking the vegetables, otherwise when will we be able to have dinner?"

When Yu Yaqing heard Xu Kong's words, she couldn't help but turn around and give the boy a cold look.

But at this moment, she obviously didn't have so much free time.

But maybe because she really wanted to have dinner as soon as possible, Yu Yaqing really started to reach out and continue picking vegetables.

It's just that the movement is ridiculously slow.

But this was something she couldn't control at all. She picked it up, but soon dropped it.

Yu Yaqing just felt that this boy was deliberately torturing her.

"By the way, Mr. Yu, Fengge will also participate in the investment of this new drama..."

This was indeed somewhat different from what Xu Kong had agreed with the other party.

But there was nothing he could do. The situation was always changing. When he had promised Yu Yaqing, he had never thought that Feng Ge would become what he is today.

Fortunately, Mr. Yu also expressed his understanding.

He took the time to nod his head, indicating his agreement.

Xu Kong always felt that he was taking advantage of someone's misfortune.

But after all, he is also one of the bosses of Fengqing Entertainment, and he actually has the decision-making power in this matter. Yu Yaqing will most likely not disagree.

……

As they were talking, only an apron was left.

Xu Kong said it euphemistically, when cooking, you can lack other things, but how can you not bring an apron?

It’s true, Mr. Yu was really hungry.

I insisted on washing and picking all the vegetables. Because I planned to have hot pot, the ingredients were also fully prepared during this process.

Xu Kong was quite cooperative, but he just helped in the kitchen the whole time.

Yu Yaqing could only sigh and say that being young is indeed good.

"I'll take care of the rest. You take a break first."

Xu Kong was also a little embarrassed.

So I took over the cooking job.

However, Mr. Yu obviously rarely cooks, and this time he cooked personally because he came.

The hotpot dishes we make are all relatively simple.

After the ingredients are prepared, stir-fry the hot pot base and make the pot base.

After Yu Yaqing finished cleaning up, she lay on the sofa listlessly. Looking at Xu Kong who was busy, she felt relaxed.

"I've looked over the list you gave me, there shouldn't be any problem."

During the meal, we naturally talked a little about the drama "The Bad Kids".

After Xu Kong made the promise to Fengqing Entertainment last time, Yu Yaqing had actually made preparations.

In this drama, there are no roles that can be given to actors from Fengqing Entertainment.

But some positions in the crew can still be offered to Fengqing Entertainment.

This can also be considered as helping Fengqing Entertainment cultivate its own team.

In addition, it was originally promised that Fengqing Entertainment would invest alone, but now Feng Ge has joined the team.

This is also something that Xu Kong felt a little guilty about.

However, Yu Yaqing naturally knew about Feng Ge's situation a long time ago, so she didn't care too much about it.

The main thing is that Xu Kong and she are now in the same boat. Fengge is Xu Kong's company, and so is Fengqing Entertainment.

Even if we exclude her factor, Xu Kong would never let himself suffer any loss.

It can be said that Yu Yaqing trusts Xu Kong quite a lot.

"As for Feng Ge, do you really have the final say now?"

Yu Yaqing asked still a little worriedly.

"Not really, but I still have a lot of say."

Song Fuquan has completely delegated power to him and can be said to have great trust in him.

However, Xu Kong did not say too much.

"You'd better be more careful and don't let others use you as a gun."

After Yu Yaqing nodded, she still gave a reminder.

There was no way. After all, Xu Kong was so young. Compared with old foxes like Song Fuquan in the circle, she was worried that Xu Kong would accidentally fall into the trap set by the other party.

Xu Kong did not refute, but nodded in agreement.

It can be seen that although he had left Fengqing Entertainment and Mr. Yu's protection a long time ago, Yu Yaqing was so worried because she knew the cruelty of this industry and circle.

But it is obvious that for a strong woman like Ms. Yu, it is really hard to accept the previous failed battle in the kitchen.

In the second half after dinner, she regained the initiative.

This time, Xu Kong did not resist and gave up the initiative.
