you are not a passerby

That night, Deng Zhe's hotel room.

"When did you tell me?!" Deng Zhe glared at his female manager, "I was so embarrassed on the set today!"

The manager was so angry that he wanted to jump up and slap Deng Zhe on the mouth: "Why didn't I tell you! I was in this room last night, and I told you to pay more attention to the people arranged by Fang Boss today. Have you listened to it? You know that you are chatting with your mobile phone and swiping Weibo to listen to songs! My words are never on your ears, so don’t raise your tail to the sky!"

After being yelled at like this, Deng Zhe stopped. After thinking about it, his manager seemed to have indeed mentioned this to him last night. What was he doing at that time?It seemed that he was chatting with a small model, but he didn't understand what was going on at all.

"..." Deng Zhe swallowed, and his voice softened, "Sister Xia, what should I do now? I offended that Ke so badly today, who the hell would have thought that Mr. Fang would take care of such trivial matters and arrange An [-]th line supporting role?! The boss is out of his mind? What is the relationship between that person and Mr. Fang?"

Sister Xia waved her hand irritably: "I'm also looking into it. I can't tell what their relationship is now... But Mr. Fang is not the kind of person who doesn't distinguish between public and private, so don't worry too much..."

"I'll go..." Deng Zhe fell on his back on the bed, staring at the ceiling, "That boy looks hard to deal with, what's the matter, it's a bad time, why are there so many ghosts and monsters." Yuan Xiao is enough to annoy him , Now there is such an unidentified and powerful relationship household.

"What's the matter with you? He's just playing your little follower, why are you reacting so much?" The manager wasn't there today, and she really didn't understand why Deng Zhe had trouble with a supporting role.

Deng Zhe sat up stiffly: "Sister Xia, you haven't seen the boy's appearance. He is too stealthy. I'm in the same frame as him... It's a shame." In front of the manager, Zhe couldn't control so much.As soon as he saw Chen Ke, his heart beat. Chen Ke's face was of the same type as his, and he was more majestic and attractive. After a couple of words, he found that the acting skills of this supporting role were not weak. He made up his mind at that time that he must not use it. Chen Ke.

As soon as the show airs, he will be completely crushed by his little follower as a serious male second, and this face will really be thrown at grandma's house.Are the audience embarrassed?Are fans embarrassed?

He became popular too fast, and he was a little vain in his heart, so he was able to bluff like this. If he was compared to a supporting actor, wouldn't it mean that his popularity was all due to luck, and he had no strength at all?

"That can't be helped. Mr. Fang personally handed over the words, what can you and I do? Just bear with it. Fortunately, the supporting role is not too much. In the end, he died to save Master Song, right? It took more than a month to fight and fight." You just have to endure it for a month. Don't confront him again." The manager said earnestly.

"I can bear it this month, what will I do in the future? If it's Mr. Fang, he will sign with the company sooner or later. If I offended him so much, can he not hold grudges? Even if he doesn't hold grudges, his age, style, and appearance are about the same as mine. , At that time, it is necessary to grab resources, can I grab him? My foundation is not stable, I know it myself." Deng Zhe said worriedly.

The manager sneered, "You're not stupid." She lit a cigarette, slowly exhaled the smoke ring, and said meaningfully, "But don't worry, hasn't the company signed him yet? The days are still long. "

……

Reached a consensus with the agent, Deng Zhe didn't jump around anymore, Chen Ke successfully signed the contract with the crew of "Begonia", and he also brought Coke over to be an actor with the group, playing the servant of a big family.

It was the first time that Coke got a role with a stable salary, and he was so happy from ear to ear, he immediately sang a few lingering love songs to Chen Ke with his guitar in his arms.

At the same time that Chen Ke entered the filming group, Fang Jiming was rushing about another big event.

DreamWorks, which he took over from his father, appears to be thriving, but in reality there are many internal and external problems.

Fang Jiming's father, Fang Dongsheng, is a pure businessman, which is different from his youngest son. Although Fang Jiming is also a businessman, he still has some artistic feelings. He is also a filmmaker.When DreamWorks was in Fang Dongsheng's hands, it did make a lot of money. The things it produced, whether it was a movie or a TV series, pursued high box office and high ratings. Everything was market-oriented, profit-oriented, and artistic. High-quality products, but the ratio is too small, especially in the past two years, one after another high-grossing bad movies have been released by marketing, and TV dramas have been sold at a good price by relying on all-star big IP gimmicks. .

What Fang Jiming took over was such a mercenary, the report was very good-looking, the word-of-mouth was very popular, and DreamWorks was well-received.Fang Jiming occasionally laughed at himself, saying that he was a half-hearted literary and artistic worker. As a conscientious literary and artistic worker, he also wanted to create good works besides making money.

Moreover, the audience's aesthetic taste is improving day by day, and they are not so stupid and easy to cheat money. The bad reputation will sooner or later come back in terms of income. Combining business and art is the only way for DreamWorks' long-term and stable development.

Therefore, one of the important purposes of Fang Jiming's visit to Hengdian is to meet with the great director Jin Li. He wants to get the director to make a compelling work, and it is best to win an international award.

This director is talented, but unfortunately, he has an eccentric personality, and the things he shoots are also in his own style. If you say it well, it is called art, but if you say it popularly, it is mysterious, so he has always been high-spirited. In his early years, his works still made a splash at international film festivals from time to time. , In recent years, in the increasingly fierce box office war, even a small ripple can’t be made. Without box office, there is no investment, and without investment, there is no movie. Director Jin Da’s hero is late, and his ambition is hard to repay. The feeling in my heart is not very good. .

But artists are also human beings, and they also have to support their families. Director Jin had no choice but to take over a fairy-tale fantasy TV series, which is currently being filmed in Hengdian.

Ordinarily, Fang Ming has money but lacks style, and Director Jin has style but lacks money. The two should hit it off, and a work that will save word of mouth and win awards is just around the corner.It's a pity that Jin Dao and Fang Dongsheng had conflicts, and they publicly tore it up. Everyone in the circle knows that this father's fault, the son has to carry on. After Fang Jiming arrived in Hengdian, he visited Jin Li twice, but was rejected shut out.

But it doesn't matter, Fang is always patient. This morning, he took out the posture of looking around the thatched cottage and chasing Director Jin to the set.

"Teacher, it's really not easy to see you." Fang Jiming walked up to Jin Li calmly with a smile on his face, and stretched out his right hand towards him.

At this moment, Director Jin's crew is just getting ready to start work. Jin Li is coordinating the situation on the scene. The male and female leading actors have not arrived yet. He is waiting impatiently, and he doesn't show a good face to Fang Zhiming: "Mr. Fang ? I’m filming, what do you want me for?”

Fang Jiming didn't care, and said with a smile: "I know the teacher is busy, and I didn't have time to look for you the first two times, so I had no choice but to chase after you to the set."

Jin Li snorted and said, "You flatter me too much. Do you know your father when you come to me? Didn't his old man say that I was a box office poison and would only lose money? Didn't he say that DreamWorks would never cooperate with me again?"

Fang Jiming was not surprised at all. Jin Li turned up old accounts. Back then, it was because DreamWorks invested in a film directed by Jin. Director Jin kept improving and repeatedly exceeded the budget. There was a conflict with each other, and they shouted across the air, and they never communicated with each other.

"DreamWorks is in my hands now, and my father is not energetic enough, so he won't meddle in the affairs here anymore." Fang Jiming said softly, "I made a special trip to discuss cooperation with the teacher because there is indeed a suitable project. I think about it. Go, only you can be the director of this film."

Jin Li was still unmoved, but he didn't speak eccentrically anymore. Today, Fang Jiming chased him to the set to find him, and he was touched by his sincerity.

"DreamWorks has won the film and television adaptation rights of the novel "Bai Yu Tan"." Fang Jiming said.

"Really?" Jin Li's face was obviously loose, and he looked at Fang Jiming: "Mr. Xu Sheng's "White Jade Altar"?"

Fang Jiming nodded.Xu Sheng is a famous writer and a leading figure in the contemporary literary world. His works are not many, but all of them are classics. He is a frequent visitor to the top domestic literary awards and is also a popular film and television adaptation.Changing his works is not because big IP can make money, but because it is suitable for participating in international exhibitions and winning awards.

In short, it is deep enough and high-quality.

All of Mr. Xu's works have been changed. Only one "Bai Yu Tan" has not been filmed yet. This is the author's favorite work, and he just won an international literary award last year.Since then, the copyright fee for the adaptation of this book has remained high, and Mr. Xu is very picky, so he won't sell it to you if he has money.Fang Jiming came into contact with the old gentleman through many relationships, and spent a lot of hard work and money before finally winning the film and television adaptation rights.

Hearing this, Jin Li's heart was really moved. The glory in the early years and the downfall of the present made him extremely eager to prove that he regained his glory through a truly good work. Filming "White Jade Altar" is undoubtedly the best opportunity .

Jin Li didn't speak for a while, why did DreamWorks get the "White Jade Altar"?If it was another company, he would not hesitate at all.

Seeing Jin Li's reaction, Fang Jiming became more confident. He said sincerely: "Teacher, I still remember that when I was studying in the Film Academy, you once gave a lecture and told us that apart from worldly fame and fortune, people always want There are some ideals. Being a star is beautiful, but as a filmmaker, creating good works that can stand the test of time and be widely recognized on a bigger stage is the most valuable. We are for ourselves , especially for Chinese movies. Do you remember?"

Looking at the busy staff on the set, and listening to Fang Jiming's words, Jin Li was filled with emotion. He hadn't had a chance to show his fists in the past few years. The years have faded and dimmed.

"It's a good thing you still remember." Jin Li softened his tone, and it was rare for the other party to show a very shallow smile.

Fang Jiming was about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, when the coordinator ran over panting and said to Jin Li, "Director Jin, just now Tan Xiaoxiao's assistant called and said that their car broke down on the way and they might not be able to catch up, and they said let us Make other people's scenes first."

"What?!" Jin Li immediately raised his eyebrows and raised his eyes: "Today is the highlight of the big scene. Hundreds of people have been used for Guangqun's performance, and all the props and carriages are in place. She won't shoot if she says she won't? Which country is she a princess and fairy? How big is Hengdian in total? What could happen to the car, and is it difficult to get here with another car?”

The coordinator faltered and said: "While Tan Xiaoxiao was filming our film, she was also filming another film. Yesterday she rushed to Xiangshan, which may be the reason... she didn't have time to come back."

"..." Jin Li took a deep breath, his liver ached from anger, there was nothing wrong with him, he was no better than he was back then, and he could only bear with the heroine playing a big role.

Fang Jiming frowned on one side, Tan Xiaoxiao, he has an impression, an artist from DreamWorks.

"Teacher, don't worry, I'll call to inquire about the situation." Before Fang Jiming could make a move, Chen Chen quickly found Tan Xiaoxiao's manager and handed the phone to Fang Jiming.

Everyone knows Mr. Fang's temper, no one dares to lie in front of him, Fang Zhiming asked clearly in a few words, Tan Xiaoxiao returned to Hengdian from another production crew in Xiangshan in the middle of the night last night, didn't wake up in the morning, so he asked his assistant to find him casually For this reason, I made up for beauty sleep in the hotel.

Fang Jiming said in a deep voice into the microphone: "I'm with Director Jin now, let Tan Xiaoxiao appear in front of me within 10 minutes."
