How do male gods chase after stars [Rebirth]
Chapter 68
Gu Wuxun and Li Shao made an appointment at the Blue Mansion. The mansion stands on a low hill in the outskirts of the imperial capital. The road is touching, so the environment is quiet.Of course, the price is also very expensive.
Perhaps it was Li Shao's order. As soon as he stopped the car, a dignified and generous waiter in a cheongsam greeted him, and asked softly, "It's Gu Wuxun, Mr. Gu? Mr. Li's box is in Yulanfang, please tell me I come."
The architectural style of ancient Suzhou gardens, from the round arched gate at the beginning of the entrance, and the fine old wood that exudes a light fragrance under the feet, and even the delicate wind chime decorations hanging on the corners of the eaves, create a kind of Very elegant atmosphere.
In ancient times, sages and hermits all liked to stay away from the mundane world and live near mountains and rivers. It seems reasonable.
Following the waiter to the last box at the end of the corridor on the right, the waiter stretched out his hand and lightly touched the small magnolia plants placed on both sides of the carved wooden door, and a golden bell hanging on the top of the wooden door began to jingle.After the sound stopped, a deep man's voice came from inside the box, which Gu Wuxun was not familiar with.
The man said, "Come in."
The waiter pushed open the door and led Gu Wuxun in.
The layout inside is not necessarily different from the one in the hall, but there are more small white flowers.Going around the screen and going to the back, I found that there were already three people sitting at the round wooden table, Li Shao and Yang Xue occupied the second, and the remaining one was slightly older, with clean and soft features, wearing a pair of silver-rimmed glasses, The demeanor around him is still as gentle as orchid, like a handsome young man, presumably he was the one who spoke before.
Li Shao took Yang Xue up to meet him, and the man also stood up. In fact, just as Gu Wuxun passed the screen, he felt the man's gaze cast on him, with an inquiring, enthusiastic look that he couldn't ignore.
"Wu Xun, you are here, let me introduce you, this is my second uncle."
The man who was introduced quickly stretched out his hand, his eyes were burning: "Li Zihua."
Gu Wuxun raised his eyebrows imperceptibly, and went up to him and gave him a virtual shake: "There is a poetic spirit in his belly, Mr. is as good as his name."
Li Zihua was taken aback when he heard this, his eyes staring at Gu Wuxun became more and more eager, his brows were furrowed, as if something was about to come out.
Seeing Gu Wuxun's eyes getting colder and colder, Li Zihua didn't notice anything, Li Shao thumped in his heart, and hurriedly jumped out and said: "Second Uncle, this is Gu Wuxun, but I don't think I need to introduce you, you are also Wuxun Half a fan."
Li Zihua nodded, and Yang Xue said, "Don't just stand here, let's sit and chat while sitting, the food will be served soon."
"Alright."
Li Zihua, Gu Wuxun had also heard that one of the younger generation of the Li family in power was very likely to be the next head of the family.This person lives in seclusion, and the outside world knows little about him, but it is rumored that he is insidious, cunning, and resolute. In the past, he led a team to wipe out the core of the largest gangster in the neighboring city. None of the gang's 120 people survived. The true biography of Mr. Li who was born in the underworld.
But when he saw it today, Gu Wuxun couldn't help sighing that the rumors were really unbelievable.
Not to mention whether Li Zihua, a scholar, can carry a cannon/gun, but his speech and manners are also extremely polite. Except for the enthusiasm and weird moves that made him uncomfortable at the beginning, the subsequent communication was extremely smooth. It can be said that the host and guest enjoyed themselves.Of course, the possibility of him covering up in front of Gu Wuxun is not ruled out. Li Shao brought Li Zihua here this time mainly because the two had talked about it some time ago and wanted to invest in a movie.
Now is a good time for the film industry to flourish and flourish. Domestic audiences are increasingly demanding films, and the market is further expanding. Many people have already made a lot of money, such as the Jiang family, the leader of the film and television industry.However, the investment in a film is not a small amount, and it is extremely risky. There are many examples of high investment producing bad films with low returns, and low investment producing good films with high returns.Although the Li family is not short of money, they are not so arrogant that they can spend tens of billions at will. Businessmen always want to pay attention to returns.
But these concerns are nothing in front of Gu Wuxun.
What is Gu Wuxun?actor.What does the actor do?filmed.Of course, this does not mean that it is enough for an actor to make movies. In fact, if these well-known actor are willing to work together to publish a book "How to Make an Actor", then others will know that a good actor will choose the script. , The ability to choose movies is on par with their ability to act.
A good director and a good script can make a second- and third-tier star popular, but a star who is popular half the sky cannot rely on him to promote a dull movie. This is the reason.
Speaking responsibly, the Jiang Corporation's success in the film investment industry is due to their daring to be rich first, and Jiang Yue must have played a huge role in it.
Although Gu Wuxun is not as old as Jiang Yue, he has been immersed in the entertainment industry for so many years, and the one who is responsible for "teaching" him is Yan Lu, who has two lifetimes of experience. More than anything.What's more, he is also an investor, and the cooperation with Li is just to maximize the benefits, and he has to pay for it himself, and he is just a star, and the money in his pocket is less than one-tenth of Li's, so he He is more worried about returns and risks than Mrs. Li.
In fact, Gu Wuxun had already discussed most of the matters with Li Shao before, so there were not many things that needed to be discussed in detail. Li Zihua was also quite easy to talk about, and there was no dispute about interests that Gu Wuxun expected.Mrs. Li gave in, and Gu Wuxun was not easy to climb up. By the time the food was served, the conversation between the few people on this matter was coming to an end, and the rest seemed to be more commonplace.
Although some of Li Zihua's questions touch his guts a bit, Gu Wuxun doesn't feel bad about him, I'd rather believe that he did it out of innocence or curiosity, and the tenderness and care in his eyes can't be faked, not aggressive at all.
Hearing that Gu Wuxun's parents had died early, he was in the orphanage as long as he could remember, Li Zihua's expression froze for a moment, looking at Gu Wuxun's eyes that were empty and deep, filled with sadness that he couldn't understand.His eye sockets were slowly turning red, and his dark brown pupils gradually overflowed with water. Li Shao watched and sighed again, pulled himself together, and raised his glass to block between the two of them.
"For our cooperation, come and have a drink."
Gu Wuxun stood up, and Li Zihua took the opportunity to calm himself down. After drinking a glass of white wine, Li Shao said again: "Actually, Wuxun, I asked you out this time. I want to talk about not only the investment, but also about our Li family. I want to make a movie this year, the heroine has decided on Yang Xue, and the heroine wants to invite you to act."
Yang Xue smiled shyly at the side: "Gu Dashen is also my idol, and it is my honor to work with an idol."
Gu Wuxun is currently in a vacancy period, and the new work arrangement has not been put on the agenda. Apart from being busy investing recently, he is indeed choosing scripts, but...
"Cooperating with Li Shi and playing with Goddess Yang are also what many people dream of, but, can I know what movie I want to make?"
"Of course." Li Shao said, and took out a stack of bound thick paper: "If you want to make a movie, of course I will give you the script. Can I not know the rules of the industry?"
"It's just that I'm used to getting the script first, not everyone is like me."
As Gu Wuxun said, he took the script and opened it, only to see three bold black characters on it—"Kite and Twilight".
Aware of Gu Wuxun's momentary sluggishness, Li Shao raised his legs proudly: "We spent half a year talking to him about the copyright of the masterpiece of the classic martial arts novel Upstart Junjian, and then we asked him to write it himself, and translated this novel It was adapted into a screenplay."
"June made his debut in the online literary world seven years ago. His writing style is known for his grandeur. "Kite and Twilight" represents his creative pinnacle, and he has a large number of fans. In fact, he was published as early as a few years ago. There have been attempts to buy the rights from him, but only with us."
Having said that, it is not difficult to hear the meaning of showing off in Li Shao's mouth. Of course, judging from the benefits that can be obtained if this script is filmed, it is indeed worth showing off.It's just that benefits usually coexist with risks.
"On the one hand, the existence of book fans is the real box office and income of the film, but on the other hand, it is also the source of obstacles and criticism. If such a novel is not made well, it is not as simple as being thrown a brick, and it is your investment. The first film that was shot, it wasn't a good start in any way."
"That's why we want to invite you to take the film." Li Shao said with a smile: "We all have your concerns. Before the casting, we voted on Weibo to choose the most suitable role for 'Gu Qing' in the eyes of book fans. For the actors of "Fantastic" and "Huajin", you and Axue are at the top of the list, which is what everyone expects. Especially you, there are several strong competitors on Axue's side, but on your side, you know that you have dumped No. How many votes does Jiang Yue of .2 have?"
Of course, he would never tell Gu Wuxun about the contest for the number of votes for the 'Heroine' Huajin, the most powerful rival behind Yang Xue by only [-] points is Yan Lu's.
Those rotten girls and cp fans are really cruel.
A single vote could involve his old feud with Jiang Yue. Gu Wuxun was a little dumbfounded, shaking his head and expressing that he didn't want to know: "I admit, I am very moved by what you said, but let me think a little more about whether to take this movie or not. God."
"Hi——" Li Shao was a little dejected. To be honest, he was ready to take Gu Wuxun down at once today. Seeing that he was still a little bit evasive, he was naturally reluctant: "What else are you thinking about? This movie is made. It is absolutely popular, and we are also planning to invite Zhang Qingyuan to be the director, with his skill, it is no wonder that this movie can be smashed."
Zhang Qingyuan, a mountain-like figure in the film industry of country c, is praised by foreign media as the director who best represents the glorious era of film in country c. In the past 40 years since he entered the industry, he has produced countless masterpieces. Even the chairman grew up watching his films , and the only director from country c who has won countless awards in foreign media.
It is no exaggeration to say that with Zhang Qingyuan, the film is half successful.
Perhaps it was Li Shao's order. As soon as he stopped the car, a dignified and generous waiter in a cheongsam greeted him, and asked softly, "It's Gu Wuxun, Mr. Gu? Mr. Li's box is in Yulanfang, please tell me I come."
