ace screenwriter

Yuan Yuan received another call from Gu Yuren at five o'clock in the afternoon. At that time, the celebration activities of the client company had already started, and the scene went smoothly without any mistakes. He glanced at his phone and said to his partner: "You Watch, I'm going to answer the phone."

Yuan Yuan left the banquet hall and found a secluded corner: "Mr. Gu?"

Gu Yuren said: "Meet at the Hong Kong Hall of the Chairman Pavilion of the China World Hotel at six o'clock in the evening."

Yuan Yuan looked at the time: "I still have things to do here, I can't leave at six, can I leave at seven?" Half of the performance at seven o'clock has already passed, and the banquet has begun, so we should be able to get away.

Gu Yuren said with a little displeasure: "It's so troublesome, seven o'clock is seven o'clock."

Yuan Yuan hung up the phone, feeling a little uneasy. The time of the script was changed for the first time. Could it be bad? Don't be obscene by then.But the words have already been spoken, and it is too late to change them.At 06:30, Yuan Yuan told his partner to leave first, and the client company held a celebration in Chaoyang District, which is not far from Guomao.Yuan Yuan got off the subway and when he was walking towards the World Trade Hotel, he received another call from Gu Yuren: "Come to the Beijing hall, not the Hong Kong hall."

Yuan Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

Gu Yuren said angrily: "It's still the chairman's pavilion, but the seat has been changed. Seafood is not allowed, so we can only change it to something else."

Yuan Yuan was taken aback by the nonsensical words, the temper was not directed at himself: "Oh, okay, I see, I'll be there soon." Gu Yuren told Yuan Yuan the number of the private room.

When Yuan Yuan arrived, Gu Yuren and a fat middle-aged lady were already sitting inside, Yuan Yuan nodded to them: "Hello, sorry for the late arrival."

Ning Xiuwu said lightly: "It's not too late, we arrived early." She looked at Yuan Yuan with scrutiny. Yuan Yuan came from the workplace and instructed the workers to do this and that. I have to help hand things over and get things, the clothes don't look very clean anymore, and I don't have time to go back and change. Going to such a high-end restaurant really doesn't seem to be that important.

Gu Yuren picked up the teapot on the table and poured tea for Yuan Yuan: "Please sit down, Brother Yuan. This is my manager, Sister Ning. Sister Ning, this is the screenwriter of "Qianlong", Yuan Yuan, a talented student in our school .”

Yuan Yuan nodded politely to Ning Xiuwu: "Hi, sister Ning."

Ning Xiuwu looked at him, his face was slightly moved, and he glanced at Gu Yuren, but Gu Yuren was always looking at Yuan Yuan, holding the menu and asking Yuan Yuan to order, and said: "I prefer The dishes in the Hong Kong restaurant, but Sister Ning said that I can’t eat seafood, seafood is hair, I think she thinks too much, my wound has healed up long ago, there is nothing wrong with it.”

Ning Xiuwu looked at the dead child and frowned: "I'm doing this for your own good. When will your leg be healed?"

Gu Yuren grinned: "I'm actually fine."

"Then you are still on crutches! You still have to use a wheelchair!" Ning Xiuwu couldn't help complaining.

Gu Yuren said: "I haven't walked for so long, I don't know what it feels like to walk normally."

Yuan Yuan looked at Gu Yuren who was facing him. Today's painting style is completely different, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a funny comparison.The waiter knocked on the door and came in. Gu Yuren regained his aloof image. The waiter looked at him with a spring breeze in his eyes: "What do you need to order, Mr. Gu? The menu recommended by our chef today is specially selected."

Gu Yuren pointed at Yuan Yuan: "The guest is him, ask him."

Yuan Yuan ordered a dish: "I'm ready."

Gu Yuren asked Ning Xiuwu to order again, and finally ordered by himself.When the waiter left, Gu Yuren said: "Brother Yuan, I read all your scripts last night, and my favorite is "Double Happiness."

Yuan Yuan looked at Gu Yuren in surprise: "I didn't give you "Double Happiness". That script can't be shot. Someone has already made a similar movie, and they will be accused of plagiarism."

Gu Yuren didn't answer Yuan Yuan's question: "That's why I chose the script of Qianlong. What price do you plan to sell?"

Yuan Yuan found that Gu Yuren had the common problem of northerners, straightforward, straight to the point, and not procrastinating, but before he could speak, Ning Xiuwu said: "Wait. Your name is Yuan Yuan, right? Yuan Shikai's Yuan, The knowledgeable Yuan?" Yuan Yuan didn't understand why she asked such a question, so he nodded, "Yes."

Ning Xiuwu looked at Gu Yuren: "Xiao Yu, come here, I have something to tell you."

Gu Yuren looked at Ning Xiuwu: "What's the matter?"

Ning Xiuwu frowned: "Just follow me."

Gu Yuren looked at Ning Xiuwu in puzzlement, and was about to get up.Yuan Yuan got up quickly and said, "You guys talk, I'll go to the bathroom." After he hurried out of the private room, his heart suddenly became cold, and this matter would probably go wrong again.I have encountered such a situation more than once before. When I heard my name, I didn't even read the script.

Here Gu Yuren looked at Ning Xiuwu: "Sister Ning, what's wrong?"

Ning Xiuwu said: "You should think carefully about this script."

Gu Yuren frowned puzzled, and raised his voice: "Why?"

Ning Xiuwu said: "Yingsheng told our company before that they can't buy this Yuan Yuan's script."

Gu Yuren calmed down, looked at Ning Xiuwu: "Did Yingsheng say why?"

Ning Xiuwu said: "Yingsheng said that this Yuan Yuan is a habitual plagiarist, has bad morals, and once copied the script written by their company. Anyone who uses his script will have trouble with Yingsheng."

Gu Yuren twitched the corner of his mouth: "Which screenwriter did Yuan Yuan plagiarize?"

Ning Xiuwu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know about that. But I think he is such a big company, and he can't afford to have trouble with a small screenwriter. It must be that Yuan Yuan offended him somewhere, so he did this kind of trick. Entertainment The circle is only so big, and Yingsheng is the leader, and he has theater chains. Most people will not be offended, so should you think carefully? You are a newcomer after all, in case he does something with your movie The article, I'm afraid it will be bad for you."

Gu Yuren sneered: "He Yingcheng can cover the sky with one hand? I still don't believe in this evil!"

Ning Xiuwu said with a serious expression: "If you start a company, you can't be impulsive and consider the overall situation. It's better to offend a gentleman than a villain."

Gu Yuren said: "Sister Ning, do you know why Yuan Yuan was blocked?"

Ning Xiuwu looked at Gu Yuren, and Gu Yuren continued: "The first film I made, "Shimmer", was written by Yuan Yuan."

Ning Xiuwu opened her mouth slightly in surprise: "Who told you this, isn't that the script of Wang Ruize and Teacher Shang Yuqing?"

Gu Yuren said: "Yuan Yuan sold the script, even the right to authorship. It is not uncommon for you to know about Wang Ruize and Wu Chenggang, the boss of Yingsheng. It is estimated that Wu Chenggang suppressed Yuan Yuan in order to please his little lover. Yuan Yuan You and Wang Ruize are still in the same class. You can go and see the two scripts I brought back, "Double Happiness" and "One Hit", and you will know the origin. It's a script, but his level is far behind Yuan Yuan's, so painting a tiger is not like a dog."

Ning Xiuwu frowned: "If this is the case, it would be too much."

Gu Yuren said: "I'm not afraid of him, Yingsheng and Wang Ruize, but I want to see if they can really cover the sky with one hand, the entertainment industry is run by his family?"

Yuan Yuan felt a bit embarrassed, he didn't know when was the right time to go in, he lit a cigarette in the bathroom, and looked at his face in the mirror which was blurred by the smoke, it was as if the happiness on it had been wiped away by a rag, Only frustration remained.The bathroom door was pushed open, and Gu Yuren's cheerful voice sounded: "Brother Yuan, the dishes are all served, why are you still smoking here?"

Yuan Yuan stubbed out the cigarette butt in a panic, and lied, "I just answered a phone call, it took a while, and it's over."

Gu Yuren walked to the urinal beside him, unbuttoned his trousers, and urinated loudly at the urinal. Yuan Yuan washed his hands and listened to the movement, resisting the urge to turn his head and glance over, thinking to himself, The big star is so informal, but he actually pees like this. If a passer-by takes a picture with his mobile phone and puts it on the Internet, it will be explosive news.

Gu Yuren glanced at Yuan Yuan while peeing: "Senior brother, what's wrong with you, did you encounter something unpleasant?"

Yuan Yuanxin said, being unhappy is also your responsibility. Every time there is hope and it is extinguished, isn't this just tossing people, can you be happy if it is you?

Gu Yuren finally finished urinating and came to wash his hands, Yuan Yuan said, "I'll go first."

Just as Yuan Yuan returned to the private room and sat down, Gu Yuren came back soon. He sat down and said, "Let's eat first. It's already 07:30, and I'm starving to death. We'll discuss business after dinner."

Yuan Yuan's mood became more and more depressed. If he didn't tell the truth, he didn't want to affect his appetite, but his appetite had been destroyed long ago, and he also lost his appetite when faced with the delicious food on the table.Yuan Yuan was eating food slowly, Gu Yuren said: "Senior Brother Yuan, you can drink some wine with Sister Ning, she won't let me drink."

Yuan Yuan nodded: "Okay. Sister Ning, I respect you."

Ning Xiuwu touched him with a glass of wine, and said: "I have read some of the script, but I haven't finished it yet. I think it is a good story. Find a good director to shoot it. It will be a very good commercial film. But I mean Yes, our studio has just been established. It is too risky to make a big-budget movie for the first time, and the investment is not easy to get. I told Xiaoyu to make a small-budget movie first. He insisted on making "Qianlong" "."

Yuan Yuan's heart beat out of his throat when he heard this, he turned his head to look at Gu Yuren, who was eating vegetables with a relaxed face, and he also picked out the piece of watercress meat behind the eyes of the steamed fish, Seeing that Yuan Yuan was looking at him, he made a grimace: "Sister Ning, don't be so discouraged, let's see if I get the investment first."

Ning Xiuwu shook her head: "Making a movie is no joke, and it's a costume drama. There is no investment of [-] to [-] million yuan. How can it be made? You are just a fledgling, and investors must trust you."

Gu Yuren said: "So, Sister Ning, you have to help me find a good director. With a good director and a good production team, investors will have confidence."

Ning Xiuwu looked at Gu Yuren speechlessly, as if the [-]-[-] million was just for fun, and it was Yuan Yuan's script, if Yingsheng stepped in and created a little resistance, there might not even be a chance for it to be released , the investment of [-] to [-] million yuan will be in vain.More than [-]% of the domestically produced films produced every year are not shown in public. If someone wants to target a film of yours, you can use any reason.

Yuan Yuan could understand Ning Xiuwu's worries: "Mr. Gu, I think what Ning Jie said makes sense. It's the first time to make a movie. It's better to make a small-cost one to see the effect." Yuan Yuan's purpose is to sell the script, If it can be filmed, of course it is a very happy thing. If it is not filmed, it is understandable. After all, the producer has various considerations and practical factors.He is the screenwriter of "The Hidden Dragon". Gu Yuren wanted to make it, and it would be a lie to say he was unhappy, but he felt that Gu Yuren should consider some realistic factors, and it would be better not to take too many risks.

Gu Yuren was unmoved: "Sister Ning, just let me get the investment first, and if I can't get it, then even if the film is a hit at the box office, at most I won't make it, and just act honestly. "

Ning Xiuwu didn't know that Gu Yuren would be so twisted, and she had nothing to do with him, so she said, "Success, it's up to you."

Gu Yuren turned around and said to Yuan Yuan: "Brother Yuan, how much do you plan to sell this script for?"

Ning Xiuwu quickly said: "Yuan Yuan, there is something I would like to ask you to do, Miss Ning. Can you use your pen name instead of your real name as the screenwriter's name?"

Yuan Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Is there anything wrong with using your real name?" Since he had sold scripts before, Yuan Yuan was very sensitive to the issue of authorship rights. Not going to use a pseudonym.

Gu Yuren waved his hand: "It's totally useless, just use my real name. If I love Yingsheng, I'm not Gu Yuren."

Yuan Yuan finally sensed something was wrong: "What's going on, is Yingsheng targeting me?"

Gu Yuren said: "I'm afraid of a ball, Yingsheng is not the emperor, he alone has the final say."

Ning Xiuwu was not in the mood to eat anymore, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Yuan Yuan: "Why did you offend Yingsheng? They put down their words in the circle, don't use your script. It's like blocking you."

In the blink of an eye, Yuan Yuan understood what happened to him these years, and said why he couldn't sell his scripts all the time, and it turned out that he was blocked.He lowered his head and thought carefully: "I once punched Yingsheng's boss."

Gu Yuren laughed and gave a thumbs up: "Brother, you are awesome! I admire you!"

Ning Xiuwu was very speechless, and put his hand on his forehead: "It's not good for you to provoke someone, why would you provoke that villain who must revenge!"

Yuan Yuan said: "Oh, I'm so young and inexperienced, I'm too impulsive. In fact, there is no need at all." I didn't expect that punch to have such a strong aftershock. Wang Ruize fought.

Gu Yuren patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, it's all over, let's talk about the script. I'm not afraid of him, Wu Chenggang, he blocked you, I just want to use you."

Ning Xiuwu continued to bow his head. This Gu Yuren is completely a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers. Is it reliable to work with such an impulsive boss?
