compulsory contract

Although Xu Yi repeatedly announced his pursuit of Lu Xingyao, Lu Xingyao never took it to heart.He has always regarded Xu Yi's "pursuit" as a child's 3-minute game of enthusiasm and bad temper.Because Xu Yi's performance was indeed like this, he didn't show up for another week.And Lu Xingyao didn't want the beginning of love to start with a one-night stand. In short, it's no problem to be a friend with Xu Yi;

During the week when Xu Yi disappeared, Lu Xingyao relaxed his vigilance and spent a good time comfortably.The days without Xu Yi are really relaxed and happy. You don't have to worry about being stuck in the office every day, and you don't have to be mentally polluted by his "love words".But the peaceful days are always very short. A big pie fell into his world like a meteorite, stirring up countless flying dust.

On this day, Fu Yuhua called Lu Xingyao into the office and handed him a script: "Look at this first, if you like it."

Lu Xingyao looked at the name, it was called "Chasing the Murderer", turned two pages, said "Hey", and read a few more pages carefully: "Boss, this script is well written."

Fu Yuhua said: "Of course. You know the stuff, this is Yang Wenfang's work."

Lu Xingyao was surprised: "Yang Wenfang?! Well-known screenwriter Yang Wenfang? Is that Yang Wenfang who wrote "The Money Player" and "No Glory"?"

Fu Yuhua smiled: "How many gold-medal screenwriters Yang Wenfang are there in the industry? After five years of polishing and precipitation, the quality of this work is quite good. However, she has already planned to retire. This movie is her collection. The work of the mountain."

Lu Xingyao's heart moved, he stroked the name on the script, and asked cautiously and uncertainly: "So... are you planning to invite me to act this time?"

Fu Yuhua said: "Well, you have finally made some small achievements in filming and TV dramas in the past two years. It is said that Yang Wenfang recommended you to director Gao Yichen, saying that he liked your ability."

"Then... what is the role for me?"

Fu Yuhua smiled slightly: "Of course it's the protagonist."

Lu Xingyao widened his eyes and asked in an unbelievable tone: "Really?!"

Fu Yuhua knocked him on the head: "It's still cooked! Your kid finally got a piece of shit luck!"

Lu Xingyao hugged this big pie, so happy that he didn't know what to say, his heart was excited and surging, this is a good thing that he didn't even dare to think about before!A good director and a well-known screenwriter came to him together, and they were simply his dream collaborators.At the same time, Lu Xingyao couldn't help but have mixed feelings in his heart: Is it really so important to be famous?Xu Yi's words actually make sense?So did I have... any misunderstandings about becoming famous?

However, he didn't want to delve into the reasons, and immediately decided to take this movie.

However, after accepting this film, he realized that this film is not favored in the industry.There were twists and turns in the financing stage. First, the investment was not in place.Because this is Yang Wenfang's masterpiece, when writing the script, he paid special attention to social significance, almost abandoned the commercial value, and added too much emotion and "private goods", so the investment has become Schrödinger's style of making money. Don't know the benefit at the last minute.This scares away several investors.

The same goes for the actors. The leading actor was originally a popular niche.But after the actor was finalized, a major investor withdrew his capital, and the crew could not afford the starlet's salary, which caused the other party to break the contract.It just so happened that Lu Xingyao, a bigwig in women's clothing, came into the public eye and was spotted by Yang Wenfang.

Lu Xingyao suddenly realized that he was not found because of his business ability, but another important quality - cheapness.

After knowing the truth, Lu Xingyao didn't know whether to cry or laugh.In fact, this is not the first time he has received this kind of "courteous treatment". Most of the directors who asked him to film in the past would choose him because of his high quality and low price, and this time it was no exception.It seems that there is still some truth in the price war.

On the other hand, because the investor ran away, the current film funds are insufficient to generate electricity with love, so the entire crew was mobilized to fight for investment by showing their talents.

Fu Yuhua originally wanted Lu Xingyao to break the contract, but Lu Xingyao felt that the script was good, so he had to grit his teeth and stick to it.

So not long after taking over the show, Lu Xingyao and Fu Yuhua were temporarily called out to have dinner with the investors.

Fu Yuhua and Lu Xingyao came to a high-end club called "Shangge": "It's here, Ruixue Plum Blossom Hall."

Lu Xingyao was disgusted by the name: "Why is it a bit like the private room of a high-end brothel?"

Fu Yuhua said meaningfully: "How much better is the daily transaction here than a brothel?"

Lu Xingyao immediately became anxious.

Fu Yuhua comforted and said: "You are a man, what are you afraid of? Since you want to act in your favorite movie, you have to pay the price. Have a few drinks with you, say a few good words, and coax the investors, and the investment will be no problem. "

Lu Xingyao nodded and cheered himself up: "Yes, there's nothing wrong with drinking with you! As long as Sister Wen Fang's movie can raise funds, it doesn't matter how much you drink."

The two pushed open the door of the private room, and everyone in the room cast surprised glances at them.Fu Yuhua smiled all over his face and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, everyone! We're late!"

Director Gao Yichen saw the rescuers coming, and introduced to the big boss: "Boss Jin, this is our protagonist Lu Xingyao. He has won many awards before, and he won the best actor award at this year's Future Film Festival. It can be described as a real actor at a fair price."

Lu Xingyao was so praised that he felt guilty. In fact, FUTURE was just a new film festival, and he was suspected of being a bit of a pheasant, but he couldn't expose it, so he kept giggling.

Boss Jin sitting in the main seat is their main "cheat" target this time. He looks about 50 or [-] years old, tall, with thick hair and no beer belly, but there is an unspeakable smell on his face. bandits.

Gao Yichen continued: "Xingyao, why don't you offer Boss Jin a cup? He's an upstart in City S. He used to open a coal mine in Shanxi."

Lu Xingyao suddenly realized that it turned out to be the coal boss, no wonder he had a bandit vibe.Lu Xingyao didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately poured a glass of wine, and made a toast to Boss Jin's nose: "Boss Jin is lucky to meet you, I am lucky in my life to know a dragon and phoenix like you, come, let me toast you." Said Looking up, drank a cup

Boss Jin smiled, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes piled up layer by layer: "Actor Lu is really refreshing, it is my honor to know you."

Lu Xingyao smiled: "My film star is quite hyped and has no real title. But you are different. Your business circle relies on strength. Whoever can make money shows who has strength. "

Fu Yuhua glanced at Lu Xingyao unexpectedly, he didn't expect that he usually looks dull and introverted, but he is quite reliable in flattering.

Boss Jin was a little surprised: "It sounds like you understand our business?"

Lu Xingyao smiled: "To tell you the truth, my dad used to be in the manufacturing industry, but his major is different from yours."

Boss Jin became interested: "Come, sit next to me and talk to me."

Soon someone moved a stool with interest, and Lu Xingyao sat beside him, and began to chat with him while drinking.In fact, Lu Xingyao's knowledge of this industry was limited, but he did have a father who was the leader of the factory. However, when he was ten years old, his father was laid off and later opened a small shop by himself.But he usually likes to read, has something in his head, and can make up some stories, which makes Boss Jin very happy. He thinks he has found a soulmate, and he gets drunk before he knows it.

Before the meal was finished, Boss Jin fell in love with Lu Xingyao. He insisted on drinking with Lu Xingyao, regardless of the female celebrity he invited, and hooked up with him from time to time.Lu Xingyao gritted his teeth secretly, persuading himself to persevere.Anyway, I'm a man, as long as I don't break the bottom line, it's no big deal if I get eaten a few tofu.

Yang Wenfang and Gao Yichen realized that the situation was not quite right, so they tried their best to make jokes, trying to attract firepower so that Lu Xingyao could escape safely.

However, to Lu Xingyao's surprise, the man surnamed Jin was really serious.

Lu Xingyao drank a little too much, so he went to the bathroom to wash his face halfway.He looked at the flushed person in the mirror with blurred eyes, smiled bitterly, and said to the person in the mirror: "You have to persevere, persevere...for, for the ideal..."

Before he finished his psychological training, Boss Jin came out of the toilet cubicle.

Boss Jin also drank a lot, his face was red all the way to the base of his neck.He walked unsteadily to the sink, and while washing his hands, he asked Lu Xingyao, "Little Lu, how much do you charge for this movie?"

When Lu Xingyao heard "money", his drowsy head became a little clearer, and his tongue became smoother: "The small cost, also, is more than 2000 million." This is the reason for their trip. Important purpose.

Boss Jin laughed: "Xiao Lu is really generous, he even said that 2000 million is a small cost." He looked at Lu Xingyao, with an inexplicable smile on the corner of his mouth, "Why don't you play with me for a few days, and I'll vote 500 million for you. How?" As he said, he blocked Lu Xingyao in the corner, and his drunken mouth was about to touch his face...

"President Jin, President Jin, please don't be like this..." Lu Xingyao was half drunk, his hands and feet were a little out of control, but his brain was not fully working.He pushed Boss Jin hard, avoiding the drunken kiss: "Boss Jin, this is a serious cooperation, we don't want to sell it, sell ourselves..."

In fact, he was scolding MMP in his heart, and he wanted to sleep with him after investing in his mother?Think beautifully!Even if I stop shooting, I won't break the bottom line.

Boss Jin thought he was shy, and said with a smile: "I heard that your movie probably won't make any money. You are very lucky to find a generous investor like me..."

Luckily you are a bitch, Lu Xingyao was so angry that he wanted to kick him.

"Old Jin?" A voice suddenly broke in, breaking the ambiguity between the two.

The two turned their heads together.When Boss Jin saw the person coming, he was taken aback: "Young Master Xu? It's so late, why are you...?"

Lu Xingyao was even more surprised, because he saw Xu Yi looking at them with cannibalistic eyes.
