Perfect Superstar
Chapter 228
Lu Chen is very young, and he hasn't had a long experience in society.
But he has three rich life memories, and he has a heart and eyesight that are much higher than those of his peers.
Therefore, Lu Chen could easily see the disdain and impatience hidden in Zhu Minghe's eyes. Obviously, the other party had no real intention of cooperating, so he put forward various conditions to make him retreat.
Unless Lu Chen can fully agree.
But how is this possible?
The request made by Zhu Minghe is under the overall control of Baolong Films. The director and main actors are determined by them. Most of the funds will be settled by Lu Chen. If you swallow the fat and spit out the bones, you don't want to take any risk.
Lu Chen is not a fool, among other things, he would not agree to just modifying the ending of the story.
In fact, there is no need to talk about it.
It's perfectly normal for such a situation to happen, although Lu Chen took the initiative to come to the door despite relying on human relationships, Baolong Films is not an ordinary film and television production company, the so-called big shop bullying customers is nothing more than that.
It would be much better if Chen Fei'er came forward in person, but it's a pity that she is also a friend who entrusted her to help.
Relying on Lu Chen alone is obviously not enough.
If he were an ordinary screenwriter who wrote a script and wanted to pitch it to Powerlong Films, don't talk about investment, directing and actors, he might not even meet Zhu Minghe.
The entertainment industry, including the film and television industry, is also strictly hierarchical, and the rank of the coffee determines the level.
In this circle, he has no place at all.
How can Zhu Minghe be treated seriously?
Lu Chen didn't feel angry or annoyed because of this. After all, he himself had high demands. It would be abnormal if the other party had no objection.
But now there is no need to bargain.
Lu Chen listened patiently to Zhu Minghe's opinion, then pondered for a while, and said, Manager Zhu, it seems that the differences between us are a bit big, I really appreciate you taking the time to meet me, thank you!
There is no benevolence and righteousness in business, hello, hello, hello everyone. Even if there is a disagreement, there is no need to turn your face.
Be polite, be respectful,
When we meet again next time, we can still chat.
Many newcomers just don't understand this, and they only wake up when they hit their heads and bleed.
Lu Chen would not make such a mistake.
What a character Zhu Minghe is. You can understand it as soon as you hear it.
Instead, he regained a little affection for Lu Chen, and said with a smile: You're welcome, Sister Li from Rainbow and our company boss know each other. If you have other good scripts in the future, come to me directly.
Sister Li in Zhuminghekou. She is the general manager of Caihong Brokerage Company in Beijing. She and Chen Fei'er are friends.
Chen Fei'er introduced Lu Chen to Baolong Pictures through this sister Li.
Baolong Pictures sent Zhu Minghe over.
But this favor is not important enough to allow Zhu Minghe to put aside the issue of principle and make do with Lu Chen.
He didn't know that it was Chen Fei'er who really made the connection.
Fortunately, Lu Chen is very sensible, so that both parties can step down with dignity.
thanks!
Lu Chen stood up, stretched out his hand and shook Zhu Minghe: I hope there will be a chance to cooperate next time.
Zhu Minghe said with a smile: You're welcome, goodbye!
The two parties bid farewell, Zhu Minghe left with his secretary, while Lu Chen stayed on.
He wanted to call Chen Fei'er, but he didn't press the name after flipping through the phone's address book.
Lu Chen instinctively didn't want to bother Chen Fei'er anymore.
Or it could be said that it was the self-esteem of a big man. But he didn't want to complicate the relationship between the two.
He swiped the address book to find Chen Jianhao's number, and wanted to ask Boss Chen if there was any film and television company he was familiar with.
Mr. Lu Chen, hello...
Just as Lu Chen looked up Chen Jianhao's cell phone number, a greeting came from beside him.
Very strange.
Lu Chen turned his head involuntarily, and saw a thin middle-aged man appearing beside him with a smile on his face.
This middle-aged man was in his forties, with dark skin and an unremarkable appearance. He had small eyes, a snub nose, and a bit of buck teeth. When he smiled, he felt a little festive, but there was a shrewd look in his eyes.
May I ask who you are?
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment. He didn't know each other at all.
The middle-aged man took a step forward and stretched out his hands to him: Hi, I'm Lu Yi, the business manager of Cande Brothers Films, can we have a chat?
Lu Chen stood up quickly. He shook hands with the other party: Hello, Manager Lu, please sit down.
The name of Gande Brothers Film Company is also very strange to him.
There are too many film and television production companies and studios in Beijing, especially in the last ten years when the entertainment industry has exploded. Entertainment brokers and film and television production companies seem to have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. The bigger the market cake.
Lu Chen was curious. Why did this person from Gande Films take the initiative to find him.
Lu Yi directly revealed the answer: I'm really sorry, I just sat here and heard a lot of conversations between you and Manager Zhu Minghe. I want to ask if I can read your script?
Seeing that Lu Chen was still puzzled, he smiled and said, I'm in a hurry...Let me introduce myself first!
Of course, what Lu Yi introduced was not his own identity. As I said before, what he explained to Lu Chen was the Gande Brothers Film Company that he worked for.
Founded in 2010, Cande Brothers Films is considered a very young company in the industry, but it has invested in and filmed many film and television dramas, and has dozens of contracted actors and entertainers.
In terms of scale and strength, Cande Brothers Pictures is far behind Powerlong Pictures, an established company, but it is not without its advantages, that is, it is best at film and television dramas about urban youth idols.
Its youth idol drama My Heart Is Still cast in 2013 once won the highest national ratings of 1.7%, which can be regarded as a small hit.
It's also a coincidence that Lu Yi came to Qianfu Cafe to wait for customers.
As a result, the customer did not wait, but heard the conversation between Lu Chen and Zhu Minghe.
He didn't mean to eavesdrop, but he became interested in Lu Chen's script, so he couldn't help but come over to strike up a conversation and ask.
Lu Yi said bluntly: If it's those ordinary screenwriters, then I'm definitely not interested. There are not 100,000 or 80,000 scriptwriters in the capital, but you are different...
He smiled and said, I have listened to your songs and bought your album at Feixun Music. I believe in your talent!
So it is!
Lu Chen suddenly realized that this person is still his fan!
Most of his songs, especially folk songs, have a strong nostalgic color, so he has attracted a group of fans who have already entered the society and are in their 30s and 40s.
These fans usually don't chase fans fanatically, but financial independence and freedom are an important part of Lu Chen's You at the Same Table album sales on Feixun Music Network.
Since there was such a connection, Lu Chen readily took out the outline again and handed it to Lu Yi.
The business manager of Cande Brothers Film Company, to be honest, his ranking is a bit low, but he is always a chance to come to his door.
While Lu Yi was carefully reading the outline of Love in Blue, Zhu Minghe returned to the company.
Powerlong Films is located in the Art Park, and it is very close to the Avant-Garde Café, only a 5-minute walk away.
When he got back to the company, he went directly to the office - he had just been notified that there was a meeting.
Many senior executives of the company were already sitting in the meeting room, including the deputy general manager, art director, manager of the brokerage department, manager of the public relations department, manager of the production department, etc., but the general manager hadn't come yet.
Seeing Zhu Minghe, the manager of the brokerage department who usually has a good relationship with him asked with a smile: Old Zhu, where did you go? There was no one in your office just now, not even the secretary, is it... Hehe!
He showed a smile that men could understand, which caused the other executives present to laugh, and the atmosphere became very happy.
Zhu Minghe couldn't laugh or cry: Old Chen, you can run on me hard!
His female secretary was just recruited, and she was pretty, but she was assigned to him by the company, not his real Xiaomi, but it was inevitable that she would look a little like that in the eyes of others.
Zhu Minghe had no choice but to explain: Mr. Wang asked me to approach a newcomer, the relationship between Caihong's manager Sister Li, who wrote a script and wanted to make a TV series. I just went over to talk about it.
Old Chen asked curiously: Who is it? What script, how did the talk go?
As the head of the agency department, he is particularly sensitive to new scripts, because once the company starts filming new dramas, the first thing that will be considered is the artists signed by the company—the fat water will not flow to outsiders!
And Powerlong Pictures has made a big move recently, and the theme of this meeting is related to this.
Zhu Minghe said: It's a singer named Lu Chen. He's very young. He writes about youth idols. I want to be the hero to get addicted to tricks.
He said it a bit cryptically, but everyone understood it when he heard it.
The manager of the production department said: Lu Chen? I know that the singer who has been very popular recently has been rumored to have an affair with Chen Fei'er. The video of him saving lives in Hangzhou has become popular all over the blog!
Ok...
Zhu Minghe nodded and said: It's him, I was interested in it at first, but the script he wrote is a sadomasochism drama, the heroine died in the end, and he not only wants the male lead, but also chooses the director and heroine himself.
Old Chen immediately sneered and said, How is this possible!
If Lu Chen is a big name in the industry, then his request is understandable and acceptable.
But Lu Chen is not, he is a real newcomer in the film and television industry.
Not even newcomers.
It is understandable that Lu Chen wants to enter the film and television industry, but he has to follow the rules.
Young people really don't know the heights of the sky and the earth.
Zhu Minghe spread his hands and said helplessly: Yes, so I refused, there is no way to agree.
All the executives here understand this very well—if Zhu Minghe agrees, it would be a joke!
Just take it as a joke.
Including Zhu Minghe, everyone quickly put this matter behind them.
