ace screenwriter

Zhou Fengming threw this bait to Yuan Yuan, and Yuan Yuan was neither able to swallow nor spit out, and fell into a dilemma.From the perspective of the film, if it can be released perfectly, of course it would be great. It is a responsible performance for the creator and the audience, but the price is that Gu Yuren will beg his father. No matter what, I can't open my mouth.Yuan Yuan was so anxious that he couldn't close his eyes all night, he didn't know what to do, Zhou Fengming really gave him a big problem.

Since it is the second submission for review, the review results of "Inheritance" have not come out for a long time, and the entire studio is waiting for the results. The publicity and distribution work can only be carried out after the public release license is issued.Yuan Yuan was very conflicted. He was looking forward to the approval of the review, but also hoped that the result would come out later, so there might be room for change.

This day Yuan Yuan went to Gu Yuren's studio. He actually had nothing to do. He just wanted to go for a walk and see if he could chat with Ning Xiuwu, who was in the know. He was about to suffocate himself.

Ning Xiuwu is talking about a TV script with Le Ran in the studio. Le Ran participated in this year's "Voice of the Soul" talent show and entered the top 16. It can be regarded as a familiar face in front of the public. She took the job and went to act in some TV dramas first.TV dramas have relatively low requirements for acting skills. If the person's appearance is good and the characters are pleasing, they will be easily accepted and known by the audience.Ning Xiuwu has worked hard in the entertainment industry for many years, and has a lot of contacts. The dramas he took on were not drooling soap operas. This time, Leran took the role of a supporting actress in a historical drama in ancient costume. This is a male drama with very few female characters. Well done, it's easy to shine.

Le Ran listened to Ning Xiuwu analyze the pros and cons with her, nodded repeatedly, and finally bowed to Ning Xiuwu very respectfully: "Thank you, sister Ning! I will go back and figure out the role carefully, and I will definitely play this role well."

Ning Xiuwu nodded her head: "It's good to know."

Le Ran nodded to Yuan Yuan with a smile, and then went out.Ning Xiuwu looked at Yuan Yuan: "What wind brought you here?"

Yuan Yuan smiled helplessly: "Sister Ning, are you busy recently?"

Ning Xiuwu spread her hands: "I want to be busy, but I have nothing to do, so I can only make small noises."

Yuan Yuan knew that she was referring to the review, so he sat down opposite Ning Xiuwu: "Sister Ning, do you think the public screening certificate of "Inheritance" can be approved?"

Ning Xiuwu said helplessly: "I don't know either. I can see what the old men mean. But it has been cut into a eunuch. Don't expect many people to buy it. The film is sure to lose money." , she doesn't quite agree, it's obviously a movie that can't make money, and the protagonist isn't Gu Yuren, it's a waste of money.But Gu Yuren is a stubborn person, if he says what he wants to do, he must do it. He himself said that it is not for making money, but for making this movie. The boss has already spoken. What should she say as a wage earner? Woolen cloth?Speaking of which, she was also very resentful, no matter how mischievous Gu Yuren was in the past, she was the one who arranged his life, but now that he is the boss, he doesn't listen to her anymore, Ning Xiuwu felt like he couldn't help it.

Yuan Yuan hesitated for a moment, and said: "If I can find someone to help, do you think it is possible to keep the full version of this movie?"

Ning Xiuwu looked at Yuan Yuan: "What are you thinking? How is this possible! Even the deleted version may not pass the review, let alone the full version."

Yuan Yuan said: "Didn't a French director make a film about the Cultural Revolution period last year, the things mentioned in it were much more sensitive than ours, so it was released?"

Ning Xiuwu said with a smile: "You also know that he is French, and he has a license."

Yuan Yuan licked his lips: "I know, that is to say, it's not that this kind of subject matter can't be released, but it's just a matter of opinion. Sister Ning, if someone can make our movie pass the review smoothly, it's still the full version, you Can you give it a try?"

Ning Xiuwu looked at him: "What exactly do you want to say?"

Yuan Yuan felt parched, as if he had done something shameful, he poured a glass of water from the teapot and drank it, and then he mustered up the courage to say: "Zhou Fengming told me, let me persuade Junior Brother Gu to give him a cup of water. Dad called and said his dad could help with this."

Ning Xiuwu opened her eyes wide: "You agreed?"

Yuan Yuan shook his head: "No. I always feel sorry for Junior Brother Gu. For the sake of my own movie, forcing him to do something he doesn't want to do is too selfish."

"But you can't stand the temptation, can you?" Ning Xiuwu lowered his head and looked at Yuan Yuan from the bottom up.

Yuan Yuan blushed. At this moment, he felt that he was very shameless. Gu Yuren had helped him so much, how could he be so selfish: "Forget it, I'd better not talk about it. I think it's hard to talk about it."

Ning Xiuwu said: "Nonsense, you have the right to use it, and it will be invalid after the expiration date! This is not only your movie, but also Gu Yuren's movie, and it is also a movie from our studio. To put it even bigger, this is a movie for the people. Wronging him alone will benefit thousands of families, shouldn't it?"

Yuan Yuan felt extremely embarrassed for a moment. He didn't expect Ning Xiuwu to say this, but Ning Xiuwu changed the subject: "Wait, let's plan this matter first. I don't think we need to alarm Xiaoyu. I will come out and talk to Qian." Jun Tan, maybe Qian Yijun can help us do it without Xiaoyu calling."

Yuan Yuan looked at Ning Xiuwu in surprise: "Is it really okay?"

"Think about it, isn't Qian Yijun's purpose to ease the relationship between father and son? He threatened Xiaoyu to ask him for help, can Xiaoyu accept this kind of favor? If he quietly helped us settle this matter, we will Let Xiao Yu know in some ingenious way that this matter was settled with the help of Qian Yijun, do you think Xiao Yu is more grateful to his father? If you were Qian Yijun, which way would you choose?"

Yuan Yuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Is this really possible?"

"I'll talk about it after I try it. The most important thing now is that Qian Yijun can help with this. Xiao Yuan, you call Zhou Fengming and ask him to arrange for me to meet his father." Ning Xiuwu quickly cleaned up the things on the table. Something, full of enthusiasm, "Xiao Yuan, you have met a nobleman, Zhou Fengming actually took the initiative to find you."

Yuan Yuan smiled and said, "Isn't my nobleman Junior Brother Gu?"

Ning Xiuwu smiled: "That's right. Hurry up and call Zhou Fengming, the sooner the better."

Yuan Yuan nodded: "Okay." After speaking, he took his mobile phone and dialed Zhou Fengming. Before he finished speaking, Ning Xiuwu snatched the phone, chatted a lot, and then hung up the phone with a proud face: "It's done! Little boy, I'm playing tricks on my sister, you're still young. When he calls you to let me know the time, you can go with me when the time comes."

Yuan Yuan was taken aback: "Ah! I want to go too?"

Ning Xiuwu said: "Of course you want to go. This movie is your movie. You represent Xiaoyu." Now she pushed the movie to Yuan Yuan again, not mentioning the people, which made Yuan Yuan Don't know whether to laugh or cry, so I had to agree.

At noon that day, Zhou Fengming called and said that he was going to meet Qian Yijun at the headquarters of Fangzhou Group tomorrow morning.When Ning Xiuwu got the news, he said with emotion: "This old man is not close at all. It's why Xiaoyu has such a deep prejudice against him." Yuan Yuan couldn't understand the meaning of Ning Xiuwu's words, and after thinking about it for a long time, it probably meant Qian Yijun received them in the office as if it was an office, completely in the attitude of negotiating.

Waking up early the next morning, Yuan Yuan was choosing clothes in front of the closet, thinking about what clothes to wear to meet Qian Yijun, at least to make a good impression, too formal would be inappropriate and appear too formal, and too casual would appear too casual .After thinking about it for a long time, I finally chose a casual suit from the limited clothes, wearing a white shirt inside, the most regular attire, even if it doesn't add points, at least it won't lose points.For the first time, Yuan Yuan felt that it was time for him to add some clothes.When this thought flashed, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but spit at himself, what was all this, Qian Yijun was just Gu Yuren's old man, why should he have the same mentality as seeing his father-in-law.

Ning Xiuwu drove over to pick up Yuan Yuan and went straight to Fangzhou Building.In Beijing, where land is very expensive, Qian Yijun built a building as an office, which shows his strong financial resources.Yuan Yuan used to drive past Fangzhou Mansion by car occasionally, but never had a chance to go in. This time, he finally didn't pass by and went in directly.The front desk gave them instructions: "Please take the leftmost elevator and go straight to the 36th floor."

The highest floor of this building is the 36th floor. Qian Yijun's president's office is on the 36th floor, and he occupies the first floor alone.Yuan Yuan followed Ning Xiuwu to the elevator, and the elevator went straight to the top floor. Once out, there was a spacious hall with several sets of leather sofas and many indoor potted plants with wide leaves. It was probably the reception area.It wasn't too early for them to arrive, Qian Yijun was already meeting guests, and the secretary led them to sit down on the sofa and wait.

Yuan Yuan was a little nervous: "Sister Ning, what should I say later?"

Ning Xiuwu took a sip of tea: "If you are asked, answer it, and if you don't ask, don't talk."

"Oh, good." Yuan Yuan heaved a sigh of relief, he didn't need to say anything.

Ning Xiuwu glanced at him: "Xiao Yuan, why are you so nervous? You're just a boss."

Yuan Yuanxin said that if it was just the boss, he wouldn't be afraid. It's not like he hasn't met him before. The key point is that the boss is Gu Yuren's father.

After about a quarter of an hour, the secretary came over and said, "Director Qian invites you to the office."

Yuan Yuan got up, stretched out his hand to adjust his suit, took a deep breath, and then followed Ning Xiuwu's footsteps.This is not the first time he has seen Qian Yijun. Apart from seeing him in the news media, he also saw him at close range last time at Gu's mother's funeral. But for Qian Yijun, it should be the first time he has seen him. Inevitably a little apprehensive.

Qian Yijun is a tall, middle-aged man. He is nearly sixty years old, but he doesn't look old at all. His face has the confidence and calmness of a long-term superior, exuding a faint sense of dignity. He is indeed this The emperor of the business empire.Qian Yijun maintains a good figure. When he was young, he should be the standard handsome guy of that era. He looks similar to Gu Yuren only in eyebrows and nose bridge. No wonder most people can’t think of them as a father and son. He can be regarded as a very attractive man. man.

Ning Xiuwu has been out of the society for many years and has met countless celebrities, so he greeted each other generously and turned around to introduce Yuan Yuan to Qian Yijun: "This is Yuan Yuan. One of the film's screenwriters and investors."

Yuan Yuan pulled out an unnatural smile, and stretched out his hand: "Hello, Mr. Qian! Please take care of me."

Qian Yijun heard that Yuan Yuan is a good friend of Gu Yuren, so he took a closer look: "Hello, please sit down!"

As soon as Yuan Yuan sat down, he heard Qian Yijun say, "What is Xiaoyu up to lately? It seems he's not in Beijing."

Ning Xiuwu said: "He is still filming in Qinghai, and he will return to Beijing in a few days."

Qian Yijun looked at Yuan Yuan: "You and Xiao Yu graduated from the same school?"

Yuan Yuan nodded: "Yes, we both graduated from the drama school, but our majors are different. He acts, and I write screenplays."

"Then you guys started working together very early?" Qian Yijun looked at Yuan Yuan.

Yuan Yuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Yes, we started collaborating before graduation. Junior Brother Gu is an acting genius, and it's very easy to work with him." Strictly speaking, it was true that we started collaborating before graduation.

Qian Yijun continued to look at Yuan Yuan: "Then besides filming, what does he usually do?"

Yuan Yuan said: "He is a public figure, and he rarely goes out. Except for meeting friends, he spends most of his time at home exercising and reading scripts, and occasionally travels."

Qian Yijun said unhappily: "What kind of actor does a good person live like an ascetic, and there is no fun at all."

Yuan Yuan had no choice but to say: "Junior Brother Gu likes to act, and he is more family-loving and likes to stay at home."

Qian Yijun was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What kind of a house is a house that lives alone? If you like staying at home so much, why don't you come home?"

Yuan Yuan didn't know how to answer, so he had to glance at Ning Xiuwu, Ning Xiuwu turned the topic off, and said to Qian Yijun: "Since Mr. Qian wants Xiaoyu to go home, he should ease the relationship between father and son as soon as possible. "

Hearing what Ning Xiuwu said, Qian Yijun couldn't help feeling sullen: "You think I don't want to? How can you outsiders understand!"

Ning Xiuwu said unhurriedly: "Speaking of understanding Xiaoyu, Mr. Qian, you probably don't have as much as outsiders like us. I started to take care of Xiaoyu before he graduated, and he treats me like a family member. You will tell me what you like, what you hate, what you long for, and you probably don’t even know about it.”

Hearing this, Qian Yijun couldn't help frowning: "What do you mean? Come here to accuse me that this father is not as qualified as an outsider like you?"

Ning Xiuwu waved her hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Qian, I definitely don't mean that. Of course I can understand your feelings. You are very eager to reconcile with Xiaoyu, but I think your way may not be right. Yes, it needs to be adjusted."

Qian Yijun hummed, but did not speak.

Ning Xiuwu seized the opportunity and said: "Xiao Yu is actually a shell. He looks very hard on the outside, but is actually very soft on the inside. He is a very grateful child. If others treat him well, he will remember others' kindness." As long as your approach is right, it is only a matter of time before he accepts you. For example, this time, you have the ability to help him get the film review done, but why do you have to use such a strong way to make him beg you to help How can he solve this problem? This will only deepen his prejudice against you and make him feel that you are forcing him instead of really caring about him, and I think it will be counterproductive."

Qian Yijun said, "What do you mean, let me handle it for him directly, and then tell him?"

Ning Xiuwu laughed: "Mr. Qian is indeed a person who does great things, and he knows what to do without us talking. You can help Xiaoyu with the film review, and we will be responsible for conveying your help to Xiaoyu. In this way works best.”

Qian Yijun pondered for a while: "After the movie has passed the trial, let him invite me to dinner."

"Yes." Ning Xiuwu agreed wholeheartedly.

Then they began to discuss the details of the trial, which was not about Yuan Yuan's business.He sat aside silently, feeling very sad, not because they calculated Gu Yuren so much, but because of what Ning Xiuwu said, "Once someone treats him well, he will remember others' kindness".

The matter went very smoothly. After Ning Xiuwu came out, he kept praising Yuan Yuan's ability to speak, which turned the topic to their advantage. Yuan Yuan smiled and said nothing, he was just telling the truth.

A few days later, Gu Yuren came back from his filming location in Qinghai, and the rest of the indoor scenes were mainly filmed in Baoding, Hebei Film and Television City. Part of the model of the underground palace had to be built, and the rest of the palace was completed by the special effects team. .

Before going to Baoding, Gu Yuren went back to Beijing and went to the studio to ask about the film's submission for trial. Ning Xiuwu told him that the second trial was still under review and had not been approved.Gu Yuren frowned: "The second trial is still so strict, can I still watch the movie after editing?"

Ning Xiuwu spread her hands: "There's nothing you can do if you can't see it. You insisted on taking the picture, knowing that the censorship is so strict."

Gu Yuren didn't make a sound, turned around and went home, Yuan Yuan knew he was coming back, so he didn't go out, and made him a delicious meal.When Gu Yuren entered the house, he smelled a strong smell of food. Yuan Yuan was wearing an apron and was bringing out the soup: "I'm back, hurry up and wash your hands and eat."

Gu Yuren felt warm in his heart, what he longed for was actually such a simple thing, when he returned home, someone greeted him with a smiling face, and made a delicious and hot meal waiting for him.At this time before, he had to make some jokes about Yuan Yuan, teasing his virtuousness, but now he couldn't make a joke, just put down his luggage, washed his hands, sat at the table and started eating with chopsticks.

Yuan Yuan felt that there was something wrong with him, and he didn't say a word when he got home. He wondered nervously, could it be that he knew about his father's involvement in the movie, so he asked cautiously: "Junior brother, are you in a bad mood?"

Gu Yuren sniffed: "No, the dishes made by senior brother are so delicious. I haven't eaten them for a long time, so I'll eat enough before I talk."

Yuan Yuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that there was nothing wrong with his tone of voice: "Eat more when you're hungry."

Gu Yuren first picked up a bowl of rice and drank a bowl of soup, then slowed down: "Brother, how does the house look?"

Yuan Yuan said: "I'm not optimistic about it. I heard from Sister Ning that the purchase of houses in Beijing is restricted now. It's better to buy a bigger first house, otherwise it will be very troublesome to change houses in the future. I don't have the financial resources to speculate and hoard houses. Let's deal with it first." It is more important to just need it, and buy it after a while when the money is enough."

Hearing what he said, Gu Yuren nodded, "Yes, I've also considered this issue, and I was just about to tell you, if you want to buy it, buy it bigger. You can actually buy it now, if you don't have enough money, I'll lend it to you."

Yuan Yuan quickly waved his hand: "No, no, I won't buy it for now, let's talk about it later."

Gu Yuren did not continue to persuade him. If he bought a house, he would move out. If he didn't buy a house, he would continue to live with him.
