Huayu: Female celebrities are looking for treasures in me

Chapter 118 This man, ugh, the cake is so delicious! Doubt about life on Double Day

"Is this a joke?" Naza was shocked.

She doesn't usually go online and doesn't know much about Zhang Li. She only knows him because she has watched the Spring Festival Gala and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

The first thing he said was the two Bings, the four Dans and Jiang Wen, which felt a bit unrealistic and like he was talking nonsense.

"Ali, are you sure you're not bragging?"

Zhou Shengnan took a sip of beer to suppress the shock in his heart.

She usually has the habit of browsing online forums, so she knew about the TV series starring Zhang Li and some songs he had written.

But no one had revealed that Zhang Li was the screenwriter of "CJ7" and "If You Are the One", so she didn't know.

Now I suddenly heard that he was going to cooperate with Pang Bing to invest and star in a TV series, and also to invest and cooperate in a movie with director Jiang Wen.

No matter how you listen to it, it seems unreal, as if the person who was on TV a second ago suddenly appeared in front of you.

"You've known me for so long, have I ever boasted to you?"

Zhang Li sat very confidently and picked up the beer bottle to fill it up for Zhou Shengnan.

This woman looks petite and her face turns red when she drinks, but she can drink quite a lot.

"That's not the case. At most, you're a little too straightforward or a little too venomous sometimes." Zhou Shengnan thought for a moment and shook his head, a hint of curiosity in his eyes. "So, is everything you said true?"

"Of course." Zhang Li handed the skewers to Nazha, his eyes teasing: "Don't think that I'm having a midnight snack with you two now. I had dinner with Sister Qiaoqiao and Uncle Jiang before."

"One of them took the initiative to acknowledge me as his brother, and the other took the initiative to be my uncle. Both of them said they would protect me."

"Hey~"

Zhang Li took a bite of beef.

Well, the taste is quite authentic and worth the price.

"You're getting more and more outrageous."

"I'd be a fool if I believed you."

Zhou Shengnan made a "tsk" sound, picked up the wine glass and clinked it lightly with Naza's.

Although Zhang Li doesn't know how to brag, he knows how to tease her.

He deliberately lied to her and tried to fool her like a fool.

If she believed it, she would definitely be laughed at by the brat for the rest of her life.

"Hey, Brother Nan, you always miss the right option."

Seeing through Zhou Shengnan's thoughts at a glance, Zhang Li took out his cell phone, opened the photo album and placed it in front of her.

Naza leaned over to take a look, and his eyes suddenly widened.

"Isn't this synthetic?!"

Zhou Shengnan flipped through the photos and found that it was a selfie of Zhang Li, Pang Bing and Jiang Wen.

They were indeed having dinner together, and Pang Bing and Jiang Wen even took the initiative to toast Zhang Li with wine, which was surprising.

It is 09 now. Not many people know about the technologies such as AI in the future or even PS synthesis, but Zhou Shengnan, as a professional photographer, definitely knows about it.

"I knew you would say that. You can always call Sister Yifei and ask."

Zhang Li made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing how frank he was, Zhou Shengnan was finally certain that this little brother was truly extraordinary.

At the age of 19, she has already started collaborating with Pang Bing in TV series and Jiang Wen in movies. She is even more amazing than Liu Yifei!
After all, when Liu Yifei was 19 years old, "The Return of the Condor Heroes" had just been aired, and she had not made any achievements in the film industry.

"Okay, great!"

Naza secretly observed Zhang Li, feeling a surge of surprise in her heart, with complex emotions flashing across her beautiful eyes.

After working in print media last year, she realized the difference between society and school, and knew that to make it in life, one must have background and connections, and finally, real ability.

If your family has no background and you don't accept the unspoken rules, it will be very difficult to get ahead.

The modeling industry is so chaotic, let alone the performing arts and entertainment industries.

That's why she was thinking about taking the art exam, and preparing to take the civil service exam next year after graduating this year.

Strive to join the PLA Xinjiang Military Region Art Troupe and have a good background.

As for being a print model, she wanted to earn money to pay for her father's medical treatment and also to gain some experience and popularity.

I didn't expect to meet Zhang Li today, a young man who is only a few years older than me but so capable.

"I know you're awesome."

Zhou Shengnan returned the phone to Zhang Li and ate the meat with big mouthfuls.

"Brother, as we said before, if you become rich and powerful, don't forget me."

"You're so awesome now, isn't it time for you to support me?"

puff!
Naza choked on the juice and kept slapping his chest.

Can you just talk about something like keeping a mistress casually?
"Speak carefully and don't let people misunderstand you."

Zhang Li quickly took out a tissue and handed it to Nazha.

"Thank you." Naza thanked politely, his eyes moving.

"I'm just being honest." Zhou Shengnan said nonchalantly, "According to what we agreed to when we were drinking on your birthday last year, you'll provide me with a job that's not tiring, has a high degree of freedom, but also pays well and has good benefits."

"Now that you're the chairman of the company, you can do it, right?"

"You're even resorting to provocation." Zhang Li downed his beer in a gulp and said seriously, "I came to see you tonight to invite you to join my company. I want to form my own photography team, and you will be my official photographer."

Inviting Zhou Shengnan was indeed something he had planned long ago.

Who can give up a capable and compatible partner?

It’s just that he didn’t plan to say it today at first, but instead prepared to be stronger.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have pretended to be cool and told Zhou Shengnan about his recent achievements when asked.

Of course, when inviting talents, one must show his true strength. Moreover, he was not only answering Zhou Shengnan, but also speaking to Naza.

After dinner, I walked to Zhou Shengnan’s photography studio, which might be the guidance of fate.

"You really have your sights set on me!"

Zhou Shengnan punched Zhang Li on the arm as usual.

In the past, it might have been a little painful.

But for Zhang Li now, it’s not even an itch.

"You didn't say that. We already had an agreement." Zhang Li raised his glass. "Or is Brother Nan playing with my feelings? Just saying it casually?"

"I'm not that boring." Zhou Shengnan accepted Zhang Li's toast, drank it in one gulp and slammed the glass on the table.

"It's just that I was joking about supporting someone."

"It's great for me to run a studio by myself."

"Why should I be your wage earner?"

This is asking for treatment.

Zhang Li finished his drink in one gulp and said with a smile, "You go ahead. You will be the manager of the company's photography department. You can bring in anyone you think is reliable and capable. I have complete faith in your judgment. I will increase their salaries by 30% based on the current rates."

"As for your salary, your annual salary will be based on the studio's current net profit, not including benefits or year-end bonuses."

"how?"

The right is given!

Freedom, given.

Salary and benefits were also given.

And he Zhang Li will get a complete photography team.

He knows photography and has worked in many large crews over the years, constantly learning and gaining knowledge.

Zhou Shengnan and the people in her team are not bad now. With some training, they have the potential to become a top team.

If he swallowed it, his film and television company would instantly become much richer.

"Sigh~"

Zhou Shengnan's heart skipped a beat.

Zhang Li actually meant it, which surprised her a little, but also made her feel pleasantly surprised.

The salary is secondary. The main thing is that working with Zhang Li is secure and provides opportunities for advancement.

Zhang Li cooperates with those big guys, so can they join the group and learn from them?
As if he could see through her inner thoughts, Zhang Li continued, "By the way, we're not here to just sit around and eat, but to see how strong you are. I don't think Brother Nan really wants me to support you."

"After you join us, when I go to shoot the new version of Meteor Garden, you all have to join the crew and take charge of the filming work. You can also experience the life on the set."

"When the TV series that F. Qiao and I are co-producing starts filming, I'll let you guys take charge of a group. I'm planning to recruit a few directors recently, and I'll cooperate with you guys then."

"Especially you. If Director Jiang Wen's movie starts filming, I will bring you along. You can join the crew and learn well."

Zhou Shengnan: “.” If she agrees now, won’t it be too embarrassing?

"Oh right!" Zhang Li slapped his forehead and said, "Director Zhang and I agreed to do a movie together last year."

"He's going to be filming 'Three Shots Surprise' this year, and 'Under the Hawthorn Tree' next spring. He invited me to audition for the male lead. There's basically no problem with that, and he can bring you into the crew when the time comes."

hiss!
Zhou Shengnan downed a glass of wine to calm himself, and asked with chattering teeth, "Which Director Zhang?"

"Of course he is a photographer. The one you want to be his disciple is also your senior brother in the department." Zhang Li looked calm and composed.

Lao Mouzi is a student of the Photography Department of Beijing Film Academy, and so is Zhou Shengnan.

"Damn! Is it really fake?"

"I told you, I won't lie to you."

"That happened when?"

"I told you, last year's Beijing Film Academy welcome party."

"So you're telling me now?"

"At that time, Director Zhang hadn't decided which step to shoot."

"I'm convinced."

Zhou Shengnan filled his own glass and raised it towards Zhang Li, his dark eyes brighter than the sea of ​​stars in the sky.

The surroundings were bustling with noise and the air was filled with the smell of fireworks, but it was not as strong as the fire burning in her heart.

If she missed such an opportunity, she would never forgive herself for the rest of her life.

Hesitate a hammer~
"Dry!"

Zhang Li and Zhou Shengnan clinked their glasses.

After the midnight snack, Zhang Li didn't even have to think about driving back, so he called the driver.

First, send Zhou Shengnan and Nazha, who were a little drunk but not drunk at all, back.

Zhou Shengnan is a migrant worker in Beijing and lives in a rented house.

"Will the boss be responsible for accommodation?" Zhou Shengnan leaned against Zhang Li.

"You are the department manager and my personal photographer. What do you think?" Zhang Li asked with a smile.

"Then I won't be going back to stay tonight." Zhou Shengnan waved his hand: "Be a little more luxurious and stay in a hotel. Send me and Naza together."

In fact, she just wanted Zhang Li to give her a ride.

The hotel where Nazha stayed and her rental house were located in the east and northwest of the city, respectively.

"Row!"

Zhang Li followed suit and said nothing.

But after sending the person there, he directly paid for the most expensive single room. Naza didn't stay in a very good hotel, but there was no cheap place in the imperial capital.

"You treat me to a meal, and I treat you to a place to stay. That's reasonable."

Zhang Li handed the room card and ID card to Zhou Shengnan.

"Seriously, you think I'm going to be polite to you?"

Zhou Shengnan smiled foolishly, hooked his arm and walked towards the elevator, raising one hand and shaking it.

"Goodbye~"

Zhang Li put on his mask again and returned to the car.

"Uncle Liu, let's go back to the hotel."

The driver, Uncle Liu, started the car immediately.

On the other side, in the elevator, Zhou Shengnan yawned.

Naza couldn't help but ask curiously, "Sister Nan, do you think I should accept Brother Li's invitation?"

"I'm going to join Huanyu soon, and of course I hope you will accept the invitation." Zhou Shengnan burped and told the truth.

"But we are friends after all, so I will give you an objective analysis and you can decide for yourself."

"First of all, I can tell you that what Zhang Li just said to me is absolutely true. He doesn't like to lie. One is one, and two is two."

"He doesn't hold back when he should be showing off, but he also doesn't take credit for any achievements that aren't his, which is exactly what I like."

"Secondly, consider whether you want to be an actor or a star. If so, consider whether you can join a better entertainment company and compare their salaries."

"Although Huanyu is a new company and lacks experience in many areas, Zhang Li has eight years of experience in the entertainment industry and knows everything there is to know. He has achieved so much, so the company can be good too."

"If you join earlier, you will be a veteran star and will definitely receive unimaginable resources in return."

"Of course, there may be a gap compared to well-known entertainment companies that have a mature operating system."

"in addition."

Although he had drunk quite a bit, Zhou Shengnan's mind was clear and his thoughts were very clear.

Naza listened carefully, took note of it and kept thinking about it.

When she returned to the room and lay in the bathtub, she suddenly smiled.

"You still say it's objective, but between the lines it's clearly trying to persuade me to join."

Naza admitted that he was moved.

Life is a gamble.

She was willing to accept the invitation to be a print model, which meant giving up the dance advantage she had learned since childhood. It was a gamble!
Now that she has agreed to participate in the model competition, it is not enough to work in print media, but it is also a gamble.

But in fact, her biggest goal now is to be admitted into the Xinjiang Military Region Art Troupe and be appointed to the staff.

If this path doesn't work out, she might marry a rich second-generation man because of her father's heart treatment needs.

But if she signs a contract with a film and television company, she might be able to make money quickly and live her own life.

"How should I bet this time?"

Naza was in hesitation.

Finally, she decided to go home and have a talk with her family.

Zhang Li was not aware of all this.

The next day, he began to live a fulfilling filming life again.

Every night I chat with the Tang Dynasty poet Li Qin, Zhao Liying, Jing Tian and other girls.

During this period, Pang Bing and Jiang Wen sent people to negotiate with his subordinates to determine the cooperation matters.

"Beauty's Secret" is invested by Universe and Pangbing Studio in a ratio of 70:3, produced by Universe, with Pangbing as the female lead. The filming is tentatively scheduled to start in the second half of the year, subject to the specific release schedule.

"Let the Bullets Fly", Universal Studios took a 20% investment ratio, Zhang Li wrote the script, got the role of Hu Wan, and signed the contract.

Everything is progressing in an orderly manner.

Time came to Friday, February 2th.

The day before Western Valentine's Day, there was something special for Zhang Li.

If nothing unexpected happens, his role will be completed today.

This will be his first completed film role.

"Uncle Jiang, let's talk about the script tomorrow. I have a scene tonight, the final scene, which is also the highlight."

Zhang Li hung up the phone with Jiang Wen and continued to study the script carefully.

"The final scene?"

"The highlight?"

"Then I have to go and see."

After a little thought, Jiang Wen called Zhou Xun.

There was no filming tonight, but Zhou Xun, who planned to watch Zhang Li's performance, was drinking silently in the corner of the crew.

When I received the call, I felt a little surprised and had strange expectations.

It is well known in the circle that "Let the Bullets Fly" has officially begun preparations.

She also asked her agent to contact him, hoping to get an audition opportunity for the female lead.

Now Jiang Wen called him personally, could it be that he wanted to invite her?

"Hello, Director Jiang." Zhou Xun answered the phone.

"Xun, are you on the set of 'The Whistleblower'?" Jiang Wen went straight to the point.

"Yes." Zhou Xun replied, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Okay then!" Jiang Wen smiled. "I'll come over now to watch A-Li's final scene."

Zhou Xun: ???
Li Bingbing, who was eavesdropping: “.”
