I rely on talking to brush the copy

Director An Yun made an appointment with Le Jing to meet at his company.

Anyun's company is called Yunfan Entertainment, and its coordinates are in province A, which is right next to province Y where Lejing is located, and it's only an hour away at most.

Yunfan Entertainment is not a big company, but it is well-known in the industry. Its film and television works are well-produced and widely loved and trusted by the audience. Especially since Director An signed a contract with Yunfan Entertainment three years ago, this small company has become a force that cannot be ignored in the industry.

It was half past nine in the morning when Le Jing arrived at Anyun Entertainment.

It's just that the timing of his arrival was unlucky. Director An happened to have a visitor and he couldn't get away, so he had to let Le Jing wait a little longer.

When Le Jing was following the front desk to go to the living room to wait for a while, the door was pushed open and someone came in.

Le Jing glanced at it subconsciously, then was slightly stunned, and the smile on his lips deepened.

What a coincidence, this person is an acquaintance.

To be precise, he was an acquaintance of the original owner Shi Jing.

He had only seen this person in Shi Jing's memory. In Shi Jing's memory, this person was ugly, cunning, and disgusting.

But now that they have actually met, Le Jing found that this person is actually not bad looking, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a straight eyebrow. He looks righteous and awe-inspiring, and he walks with a wind, and is particularly proud of himself.

How could you not be proud of the spring breeze?

After all, he gained both fame and fortune by virtue of the script he stole from Shi Jing, and became a new director in the film industry.

When Le Jing saw Tian Hui, Tian Hui naturally also saw Le Jing.

There was an obvious flash of surprise in his eyes, but he was good at pretending. He quickly glanced away, pretending not to recognize Le Jing, and smiled and talked to the people next to him.

Le Jing turned his head and pretended not to recognize him.

He followed the receptionist to the elevator and then entered the reception room on the third floor.

As soon as Le Jing sat down in the reception room, the door of the reception room was pushed open again, revealing a familiar face.

It's Tian Hui.

There was a strange middle-aged man with him. He had a big belly and a gold watch worth hundreds of thousands. He looked like a wealthy businessman.

Tian Hui was caught off guard and met Le Jing here, and his face suddenly darkened.

Facing Tian Hui's suddenly gloomy expression, Le Jing took the lead and said hello with a smile: "Old classmate, long time no see."

When outsiders were present, Tian Hui forced a smile and said, "Haha, long time no see."

The wealthy businessman glanced at Le Jing and asked Tian Hui, "Who is this?"

Tian Hui said vaguely: "I am a college classmate."

Le Jing smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Shi Jing."

The wealthy businessman smiled and said, "It's fate that our classmates met here." He asked Le Jing, "What's the matter with Mr. Shi's coming here?"

Le Jing: “Let’s discuss business.”

The wealthy businessman asked curiously: "Are you also a businessman?"

Le Jing shook his head, "I'm not."

The wealthy businessman thought for a while and suddenly said: "Oh, yes, you are Director Tian's college classmate, so you are also a director?"

Seeing the park head nodding, he asked curiously: "What works have you done?"

"Oh, Mr. Liu, please stop asking." Tian Hui said with false sympathy on his face, "When I was in school, my classmate was a good student who was often praised by professors. He won scholarships every year, and the short films he made were all I won an award at the College Student Short Film Festival. Compared with him at that time, I was just a little transparent..."

Mr. Liu: "What a pity?"

Tian Hui sighed heavily and looked at Le Jing with malicious ridicule: "Unfortunately... he is too straightforward and stubborn to work in any crew for a long time, so..."

"Oh, that's it." Mr. Liu's face turned completely cold.

Le Jing smiled and suddenly said: "I once wrote a very good movie script, which was later produced and became very popular and even won an award."

Before Mr. Liu could express his curiosity, Tian Hui interjected: "Okay, I know you are unhappy now, so you don't have to make up stories. I won't laugh at you." He crossed his arms and asked condescendingly: "You What are you busy with recently? If you need my help, just ask. For the sake of old classmates, I might be able to help you. "

Le Jing said truthfully: "Make some short videos online."

Tian Hui curled his lips, with even more contempt in his eyes. He lectured Le Jing rudely and said, "Can't you find a serious job? You also graduated from a major university, how could you sink to this level?"

"Let's do this. Don't say that my old classmate doesn't take care of you. After we negotiate the cooperation with Director An Yun, we will see if we can arrange for you to join our crew as a set manager and learn and observe."

"Cooperation? With director An Yun?"

Tian Hui seemed to be waiting for this opportunity, and immediately started to show off with excitement: "As you know, Director An Yun, an internationally famous director, is my father's friend. We are here to discuss film cooperation with him this time. Mr. Liu has It was a project worth hundreds of millions, and the main actors were all movie stars. I was young and couldn’t take the leading role, so Mr. Liu asked Director An Yun to help me with the filming, guide me in the filming, and help me win the award.”

Le Jing: ...There are too many flaws.

Mr. Liu pretended to be polite: "That's not necessarily true. It depends on what Director An says."

Tian Hui said confidently: "Don't worry, Director An will definitely agree. Director An and my father are good friends. I have known him since I was a child. He will definitely help with this small favor."

Then he boasted a rainbow fart to Mr. Liu in a disgusting manner: "When I win an award in the future, the first person I want to thank on the podium will be you. Without your cultivation, I wouldn't be where I am today."

Mr. Liu touched his big belly. He was obviously very comfortable with being praised. He said with a smile: "This is also Xiaotian, you are good enough and hardworking. Opportunities always only favor those who work hard enough. I am just providing a stage for young people to develop." , the ultimate success still depends on your own efforts.”

Seeing the two people exchanging various business blows, they were as affectionate as father and son, completely treating Le Jing as a decoration, as if it was a certainty that Director An Yun would go to their crew to guide Tian Hui in filming.

A knock on the door interrupted the business exchange between the two. Mr. Liu cleared his throat and said, "Please come in."

A thin old man with a white face and no beard walked in. He was wearing an antique Chinese tunic suit and had kind eyes. He looked like an old man walking in the square.

Mr. Liu lost his voice and said: "Director An!" He rushed over excitedly and said enthusiastically: "Are you done with your work? I'm here to discuss a big project with you. Come on, Xiaotian, come here."

Tian Hui ran over in small steps, his flattering waist wishing he could bend 90°, and be more affectionate than meeting his biological father, "Uncle An, long time no see, how are you?"

"It's okay, it's okay."

Mr. Liu added: "Oda's movie "The East Is Red" was recently released. I wonder if you have seen it, Director An?"

An Yun nodded with a smile, "I've seen it, I've seen it, it's a good movie."

Mr. Liu took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Xiaotian will also participate in this project. Is it convenient for you now? Can we go to your office to discuss it in detail?"

An Yun waved his hand, "No hurry, no hurry." He looked past the two people who were eagerly surrounding him, and fell on Le Jing, who was standing by the window with a smile on his face and a calm look on his face, and asked: "Are you the one? Old times scenery?”

Le Jing smiled and nodded slightly: "Yes, it's me."

An Yun immediately pushed aside the noisy two people standing in front of him, walked a few steps quickly, stretched out his hand to Le Jing, and shook it vigorously: "Look up for a long time, look up for a long time."

Le Jing laughed: "I should say this, I have always liked your movies."

An Yun let go of his hand and said with some embarrassment: "An old friend came suddenly, so I just said a few more words. I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."

"It doesn't matter, I haven't been here long."

"I got two taels of good new tea. I'll make it for you to drink later as an apology."

"Hahaha, then I will be disrespectful and wait for a feast."

Tian Hui's eyes widened and he almost burst out of his sockets. He looked at the happy scene in disbelief and felt his face was burning, as if he had been slapped by someone.

What a joke!

How could that scene be related to a great director like An Yun? Anyun treats Lejing much more enthusiastically than he treats them! What tricks did this kid use?

He couldn't help but said loudly: "Uncle Amber, we want to discuss a big project with you!"

Mr. Liu also quickly added: "Yes, yes, it's a big project worth hundreds of millions, and the male and female protagonists are both best actors and actresses! It's just for the sake of winning awards next year!"

An Yun spread his hands with an apologetic smile on his face: "Sorry, I have an appointment first. You can talk to my agent about the project."

Le Jing added with a smile: "I'm really sorry, I made an appointment with Director An in advance."

At this time, Le Jing's smile was clearly mocking and sarcastic in Tian Hui's eyes. Just now it was Tian Hui who laughed at Shi Jing, but now things have changed and it's Shi Jing's turn to laugh at him!

Tian Hui raised his voice unwillingly: "We also made a reservation in advance!"

Anyun: "I told you before, I don't have time."

"Then you and this guy have time to talk? How much business can this guy negotiate for you?" Mr. Liu emphasized again: "We have a big project worth hundreds of millions!"

No matter how good-tempered An Yun was, they still made him angry. He said with a cold expression, "Even if you have a billion-dollar project, if I don't have time, I just don't have time! And..." He said coldly: "This kid He is a very talented director and I hope you can respect him.”

"Where is it?" Le Jing smiled and looked at Tian Hui, whose face was as angry as pig liver, and said meaningfully: "I am not as talented as Director Tian. Director Tian has a bright mind and flexible hands and feet. He is best at discovering good scripts. Yes. wrong?"

Tian Hui felt guilty and acted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, screaming loudly: "What do you mean?!"

Le Jing chuckled: "I just said that casually, it doesn't mean anything, but Director Tian reacted so strongly, it seems like there is something else."

An Yun seemed to recognize some knowledge and asked tentatively: "You two know each other?"

Le Jing smiled and said, "My college classmate, Tian, ​​has always admired my scripts."

Tian Hui couldn't help but said rudely: "Fuck your mother's shit, when did I ever appreciate your script?!"

"Oh, forget it, it's been so many years. I don't take these things to heart a long time ago. Director Tian, ​​you don't have to be so angry." Le Jing smiled and said: "Anyway, we are all classmates, and I also hope that Tian Directors will be able to create better works independently in the future.”

Tian Hui was so angry that his whole body was shaking, "You said I plagiarized your script? What evidence do you have?! You will be legally responsible for spreading rumors like this!"

"I never said that, and there's nothing I can do if Director Tian insists on understanding it this way." Le Jing shrugged innocently and said to An Yun: "Director An, it's not convenient to talk here. Let's go to your office to discuss things. "

Tian Hui was furious and said, "Shi Shi, please tell me clearly!"

An Yun frowned and said rudely: "Director Tian, ​​I don't care about any conflicts between the two of you. Please resolve them privately. It's our working time now, so I won't entertain you two."

After that, he walked straight out, Le Jing followed him, glanced at Tian Hui casually before closing the door, and silently said, "Thief."

When the door closed, Tian Hui felt cold and hot all over his body, shocked and angry.

Is this what the time is like?

In his impression, Shi Jing was aloof and arrogant, and was not good at speaking. However, the Shi Jing just now had thorns in his words, a knife hidden in his smile, and a deep city. He was completely different from the previous one.

Why does Uncle Amber protect the times?

Have you told Uncle Amber about the situation? No, it's useless even if he says it, he has no evidence, Uncle Amber won't believe him!

He tried hard to build himself up mentally, but the panic in his heart still surged, and a heavy stone seemed to have fallen into his stomach.

"Didn't you say that Director An is your father's friend?" Mr. Liu asked in a roar with red eyes.

Tian Hui could not argue: "He was originally my father's friend..."

"How can we be friends if we haven't even met each other?" Mr. Liu said angrily: "And what's going on between you and that classmate of yours? You still don't like him, but Director An treats him much more affectionately than he treats you! "

"I was really blind to find you! You are a liar!"

…

Le Jing had no idea what was going on in the living room. He and An Yun happily negotiated the adaptation fee in the office and signed the contract quickly.

I don’t know whether it was Anyun’s generosity or whether his work was really outstanding. Anyun generously gave him two million in adaptation fees, which directly solved Lejing’s urgent need.

He also had money to open a studio.

If the crew of "Republic of China Literary Chronicles" is still short of money, he can also try to make a certain amount of investment and then participate in the behind-the-scenes creation of the script.

After the incident, Le Jing asked openly, "What is the relationship between Director An and Tian Hui?"

An Yun frowned, not hiding the displeasure in his eyes, "My friend's son is spoiled by his family." He looked at Le Jing, "Do you have any grudges between you?"

Lede nodded and asked with a smile: "Aren't you interested in those projects worth hundreds of millions?"

An Yun sneered: "Any big project worth hundreds of millions is just for fools. I don't want to wade into this muddy water." He glanced at Le Jing, "If you don't believe it, just wait, Tian Hui will... Sooner or later, the boy will fall into a big trap, just wait and see the joke."

Le Jing raised his eyebrows, "Is it okay to just tell me like this? Do you believe what I say?"

An Yun rolled his eyes, "I'm not blind! You can tell just by looking at how much Tian Hui weighs. Many people in the industry know that the script of "The East Is Red" is not his, but everyone thinks he bought it from where , but I didn’t expect that he stole it from you.”

"You also have a good temper, so you can tolerate this."

Le Jing smiled bitterly and said, "What else can I do if I can't bear it? I don't have any evidence. I secretly wrote it on my computer. I don't know how he hacked in, copied my script, and then destroyed my computer." The original thing in my mind was followed by the registration of intellectual property rights."

What kind of storms has An Yun never seen in this industry? He had seen this happen many times.

He encouraged me warmly: "He can steal your script, but your talent cannot be stolen. Although you have experienced temporary setbacks, you can go further than him."

Le Jing never doubted this.

An Yun looked at the young man's generous and confident posture, and suddenly felt a love for talent. He asked: "My movie will start shooting at the end of the year. Do you want to work for me as an executive director?"

Le Jing knew how precious this was a learning opportunity and was not pretentious, so he agreed immediately.

…

When Le Jing Yunfan Entertainment came out, he unexpectedly discovered Tian Hui guarding the gate.

He leaned against the wall with his head lowered, an atmosphere of malaise enveloped his whole body, and he no longer had the joy of spring breeze that he had when he first appeared.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

Tian Hui rushed over, grabbed Le Jing's collar, and asked fiercely with bloodshot eyes, "What did you say to Uncle An?"

Le Jing tilted his head: "What do you think?"

"What you say is useless! Uncle Amber won't believe it!"

"Then let me tell you something." Le Jing used a little force and pried off Tian Hui's fingers. He raised his chin slightly and looked at Tian Hui coldly with an arrogant smile. "I will not stop. I will make more films that are better than "The East Is Red" in the future, and my future is limitless."

"And you..." He shook off Tian Hui's trembling hand, straightened his collar, and looked at him with contempt, "You will never be able to make a better work than my "The East Is Red", and you will live in my shadow for the rest of your life. ”

Le Jing no longer looked at Tian Hui's twisted expression, turned around and walked away.

He looked at the endless blue sky in front of him, and the resentment belonging to the original owner in his mind seemed to have dissipated a lot.

He will use the name of Shijing to produce more excellent works to comfort the restless soul of this young man who failed to realize his talent and died in depression.

…

Including the 2 million adaptation fee given by Anyun, Lejing now has 2.5 million in savings, which is enough for him to set up a small studio.

He expects to hire three to four people to be responsible for the post-editing, art design, and audio processing of the "Huo Qubing" movie.

He can finish the lines, plot, and shots in a hurry.

He originally wanted to ask Zhou Jinsen to help him find people, but he didn't expect that Sister Zhang knew about it, and Sister Zhang immediately recommended a few people to him.

Two grandmothers and two grandfathers.

The grandmothers were white-haired, and the grandfathers were trembling.

Le Jing: ...

Sister Zhang was still saying: "Although they are old, they were big names in the industry back then. Others couldn't invite them even if they spent hundreds of thousands of dollars. If it weren't for my face, they wouldn't come!"

Le Jing: "... Is your face so valuable?" If it's so valuable, how powerful did you offend to quit the circle?

Sister Zhang glared at him, but still told the truth: "That's right, they're retired, sitting at home with nothing to do, almost sick from being idle. Other crews don't dare to hire them because they're too old. I thought your new studio doesn't have much work, it's easy, and it's close to home, so it won't delay them from picking up their grandchildren from school or going to the market to buy vegetables. So... you got the chance."

"Then... should I buy them medical insurance?"

Sister Zhang waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, they have several medical insurances. They come to you just to kill time and talk to other old men and women."

"Just give them the salary, they're much richer than you."

Le Jing: "... OK."

Facts have proved that although these old people are old and can't move as fast as young people, they have decades of skills and experience, and they do their work steadily and well, which is especially worry-free.

One of the old men is proficient in various painting techniques from both the East and the West. The Huo Qubing he designed has both the classical charm of the East and the heroic spirit of the West, especially the pair of soul-stirring phoenix eyes, which makes people breathless just by looking at them on paper.

There is also an old lady who is proficient in ventriloquism and can imitate dozens of different timbres. Her agility is far better than the AI-simulated voice.

Thanks to the help of these old predecessors who are still strong and re-employed after being laid off and retired, Le Jing's "Huo Qubing" movie was finally uploaded to the website on the last day of the deadline.

At the same time, the name of Sunset Red Studio also appeared in the cast and crew list at the end of the film.
