Who doesn’t want to make money after being reborn?

Worked as an assistant.

Learned cross talk.

Also served as host.

Acted in plays and sketches.

Jia Linlin clasped her chubby fingers and thought about her stumbling experience.

I felt very uneasy.

The fat face that had always been cheerful was now tense, with only two deep dimples still showing off the smile and kindness.

She came early.

And successfully settled into the hotel where Luo Hui was staying, but he didn't dare to go directly to the hotel.

The appointment time had not arrived yet, and she was afraid that she would leave a bad impression on the other party due to her slightest mistake.

This time, she was ready to change her career again.

Get a director Dangdang!

It can't be said to be a temporary idea, nor can it be said that it has been a long-term obsession.

However, the reality is very cruel.

After becoming a disciple of a cross talk master, she did not get the chance to perform as she wished and had to do odd jobs to support herself.

From time to time, I have to rely on subsidies from my sister to survive in the capital.

I had some bad luck last year.

It took a lot of effort to create a sketch that appeared on the Spring Festival Gala stage and won the recognition of the audience, but not the market.

Still can't find any gigs.

I have been busy preparing for drama performances this year, and if I miss the Spring Festival Gala stage, I will have no work to do.

Being idle is also idle.

Just when she was bored, she saw news reports about ByteDance's entry into the film industry.

Especially what Luo Hui said at the Congress: Build a film industry chain and get rid of the small workshop production model. It touched her heartstrings deeply.

Then, she officially picked up the invitation letter sent to her by the office of the chairman of ByteDance Group, and bravely called to reply.

Make a request to meet by the way.

I didn't have any hope at first.

Just try it.

After all, for a company as big as Bytedance, the chairman must be too busy to touch the ground.

How can I have time to deal with a nondescript artist like myself?

Unexpectedly, his request was agreed to on the spot, and a meeting time was finalized.

This is not a surprise, but a shock!

"Could it be that the young chairman has a sharp eye and can see that I have excellent directing talent?"

Jia Linlin held her chubby cheeks with her hands and carefully looked at that charming smiling face in the mirror.

"do not care!"

After looking at it, she stamped her feet and turned to go out: "The worst I can do is fail again. People named Luo don't know how to eat people!"

Vigorous and high-spirited.

She entered the elevator with rumbling steps and went straight to the top-floor luxury suite.

After exiting the elevator, he explained his purpose and was inspected by the security team before being taken to the door of the suite.

Rich people have such a tiring life!

After going through a series of tedious inspections, she felt slightly dissatisfied.

But there was still a smile on his face, and he was actively talking about the details of how to say hello after meeting.

"Sister Lin, I just wanted to call you and you came."

The person who opened the door was a blond girl with blue eyes. She was fluent in Mandarin and had a very friendly demeanor.

"Hello, you are……"

The prepared polite words had nowhere to be used in an instant, and Jia Linlin could only look up at this crooked girl in embarrassment and carefully explore her.

"I am Chairman Luo's secretary, my name is Katerina. You can call me Xiaona."

Katerina smiled and turned sideways, extending her hand to invite her in.

"Oh oh oh, what are you planning to call me about? Chairman Luo doesn't have time to see me?"

Jia Linlin stopped at the door and was not in a hurry to enter.

I was mentally prepared to be rejected.

"It's dinner time. I was going to treat you to a meal. I was just discussing with Xiaona what to treat you to, and then you came to the door."

Luo Hui appeared at the door with a smile.

"Hello, Chairman Luo, my name is Jia Linlin."

Seeing the real owner, she was overjoyed and stretched out her hands to introduce herself enthusiastically: "I have studied acting and cross talk, and have also worked as a screenwriter and director. The purpose of visiting you today..."

Shhh!

Luo Hui raised his index finger and put it to his mouth to make a silent gesture. He also held the other person's hands enthusiastically and shook them twice: "Let's go to the restaurant to eat and chat while eating. We have plenty of time to communicate."

joke.

The Lucky Cat is delivered to your door, how can you let it go?

He is in no hurry.

Looking at Jia Linlin's anxious face, I was worried about her instead. It was better to calm down first and then talk about the details.

"Oh oh oh, I was too anxious, I'm sorry."

"Come on, let's go eat. We've already made a reservation. I don't know what you like, so I ordered a few seafood and meat dishes."

"Ok."

"I didn't see you at this year's Spring Festival Gala. What's going on?"

"I was busy writing and performing a play, which delayed the Spring Festival Gala sketch, so I simply didn't sign up."

"A drama?"

"Hey, just messing around."

"Drama is difficult to write and perform. This thing has always been the most high-end form in the field of performing arts."

"Does Mr. Luo know drama?"

"I don't understand. I just yearn for it but don't have the time to do it."

"Then next time I rehearse a play, you can play a role."

"Thank you for your kindness. I'm not that material. I'd better leave the opportunity to professionals."

"..."

The two of them chatted about their daily life, and were escorted by the security team to the private room of the restaurant on the second floor.

End with a simple courtesy.

Jia Linlin couldn't wait to make a request: "Dr. Luo, don't tell lies in front of real people. I'm here to see you today for one thing: Do I want to be a director?"

Done.

She looked at the young face with a half-smile with some anxiety.

"No problem, I'm going to prepare a film production group. If you are willing to join, you can prepare a separate studio to make the movie you want to make."

did not expect.

The answer came so quickly that she was caught off guard.

He opened his mouth and couldn't help but ask the suspicion in his heart: "You promised so happily?"

"Is it not good?"

"Okay, very good...but, I always feel that something is not quite right."

“Ask, what is the biggest shortcoming of our country’s film production industry?”

"It's a hand workshop model!"

"No! There is no creative core. The core value of the film production company we are planning to build lies in the screenwriter-centered system."

“What does writer-centrism mean?”

"The director is the screenwriter. You must first be a screenwriter before you are qualified to become a director. Everything in film creation must be centered on the screenwriter."

"So, you are interested in my screenwriting ability?"

"No, you are in a special situation. I value your ruthlessness more."

"Am I cruel?"

"My eldest sister, if you are ruthless, you will basically have nothing to do with men. I still understand this."

"I don't know what you're talking about, I'm a little confused anyway."

"Then let's talk about money. Don't be confused when talking about money. How much annual salary are you planning to ask for?"

"Can we talk about this too?"

"Nonsense! Without a basic income, how can you think about making movies when you are busy working to support yourself every day?"

"It makes sense. Then my annual salary of about 100,000 yuan is enough."

"Sister, you are the director, the screenwriter, and the core of film creation. With only one hundred thousand, are you looking down on me as the boss?"

"Then...twenty..."

"I'll give you an annual salary of two million, plus a share of the movie's revenue. How about that?"

"Brother, you are my brother!"
