A sickly bamboo horse dressed as a villain

As Qiao Wen expected, just one day after Guan Zhenbao's interview was published, Boss Liu came to the door with a bag of money, wanting to buy the serialization and copyright of the second part of "Bravely Entering the World".

In order to show my sincerity, I bid a full 20 this time.He originally thought that Guan Zhenbao would be as grateful to him as last time, but this time Guan Zhenbao took him by surprise.

The other party said that the publishing and publishing rights could be handed over to him, and he would be paid according to the normal manuscript fee, but the condition was that he would redeem the buyout rights of the first part.

This was Qiao Wen's exhortation, and he conveyed it verbatim.

Boss Liu - hearing that the young master was given eye drops by someone, he immediately piled up - with an amiable smile on his face, eloquent and eloquent, Xiaozhi moved him with emotion and reasoned, and wanted Guan Zhenbao, the second lacking master, to hurry up Get rid of this terrible thought.

However, Guan Zhenbao changed his normal attitude and was very determined. In the end, he was afraid that he would be shaken, and even covered his ears and stopped listening.

After all, Boss Liu runs newspapers and publishers, and the popularity of IP in this era has not yet risen. He didn't want to lose Guan Zhenbao's cash cow. After weighing it, he finally conceded and agreed to his terms.

Of course, Guan Zhenbao didn't let him suffer. He sold it for 10 yuan and bought it back for 30 yuan. In just half a year, the things he wrote made him lose 20 yuan. Although it is absurd, it is just like what Qiao Wen said Well, spending money to buy lessons is not considered a disadvantage - whether you can buy lessons or not is another story.

Qiao Wen received a call from Guan Zhenbao to report the good news. He was quite happy at first, but after a few words, the other party faltered and hawed on the phone: "Awen, that... the money I gave Boss Liu is still short. One hundred thousand, can you give me an advance payment of one hundred thousand for the film adaptation fee and screenwriter's remuneration?"

Qiao Wen was almost blinded by the words, and hurriedly asked, "Where's your money? Didn't they compensate you for your two apartments when you sued Butler Wang?"

Guan Zhenbao said: "Well, the apartment is still in hand, it is only rented out but not sold."

Qiao Wen said: "But when we bought the land from you, we paid you more than one million yuan and gave you a monthly mortgage of 2 yuan. It's only been a year, why can't you get 30 yuan?"

Guan Zhenbao stammered: "Well... I was only about to pay when I realized that there were only more than 20 property left."

Qiao Wen was silent for a moment: "Zhenbao, you won't be cheated again, right?"

"No, no." Guan Zhenbao shook his head hastily, "I've been living in seclusion for a year and writing at home, except to book a session with Bai Fangfang in the Rose Palace. By the way, I also sponsored her to release a new album. It's very good. I'll give you two open."

Qiao Wen: "..."

Star chasing harms people!

Guan Zhenbao said again: "By the way, can we invite Bai Fangfang to sing the theme song for our movie?"

Qiao Wen: "Of course no problem." He sighed helplessly, "Okay, I'll ask someone to send you the check later, and I'll ask someone to look at the contract for you by the way."

The person he sent was Tang Xingwei. When the other party came back, he reported to him that there were indeed several pitfalls in the buyback contract between Master Guan and that Boss Li. Fortunately, he discovered it in time and asked the other party to correct it.

Qiao Wen remembered that Chen Jianan always said sourly that Guan Zhenbao's life was good. He didn't think so at first. After all, Guan Zhenbao lost his parents early and was cheated by so-called friends and closest and trusted housekeepers for many years. It really can't be called good. Life.But now it seems that Chen Jianan's words are very reasonable. This guy is indeed lucky. With his prodigal style, he is still living in a bungalow and hiring a maid instead of begging on the street. It can only be explained by his good life.

With the storybook and screenwriter, Wu Xing came with his own. As for the director, Qiao Wen didn't even find him, and Sun Dayu had already volunteered to join.These days, he has been completely conquered by Chen Jianan. When he heard that they were going to invest in making a movie, and the film was "Bravely Entering the World", he immediately became active.

He is a young and new director without a company. He built a grassroots team by himself, and he was able to make two films, all thanks to his eloquence to trick him into investment, but both of them lost their money. Now this film is almost finished, because the script— Generally speaking, I can't afford to invite celebrities, and I guess I'm still entertaining myself, so I feel that I have to find a big tree to rely on—rely on to have a future.

Although Chen Jianan and Qiao Wen's film career is still a fledgling seed, he thinks he has a good vision and believes that the seeds in the soil will soon grow into towering trees. Of course he can't miss it.

Qiao Wen actually didn't know Sun Dayu's skill as a director. After all, the two films he had made were almost nonexistent in theaters, but he carefully recalled the original plot that was almost blurred. It seemed that there was such a director. , so he readily took his grass-roots team under his command.

In this way, the behind-the-scenes team of "Bravely Entering the World" is basically in place, leaving only the actors.Don't worry about the supporting actors, Chen Jianan's group of gangsters turned martial artists is enough.

The key is the hero and heroine.

To make a hit and not waste the story of Guan Zhenbao, it is best to invite a popular movie star.However, the chances of a popular movie star appearing in a new company's new director's film are slim.

After weighing, Qiao Wen still put his mind on Li Xingchen.

According to the original plot, Li Xingchen will eventually turn from a TV niche to a movie star, why not seize this opportunity now.

Sure enough, I called Li Xingchen, and the other party immediately agreed.He also said that his contract at Baozhutai is still half a year away, and now there is only one movie being filmed, if they want, they can start the film earlier, without waiting for his contract to end, he will allocate time for filming.

Qiao Wen was greatly relieved when he got his answer.

In the end, there was only one heroine left undecided.

No matter how famous Li Xingchen is, he is a TV star after all, and it is difficult to carry the box office, so the heroine must choose a suitable movie actor.

— There is no way for first-line actresses, they can only target among newcomer actresses.

The heroine portrayed in Guan Zhenbao's novels is a kind and innocent young lady, so she must be played by a young and pure actress.

In the end, according to the suggestions of Master Guan Da and Director Sun Da, Lin Jiali, a newly promoted girl, was selected.

This Lin Yunv has only debuted for two years. She is just 19 years old this year. She has acted in six or seven movies, but the few movies where she was the heroine didn't have any sparks. Instead, it was the two leading actresses who made her popular.

With her popularity, it's just right for her to play with Li Xingchen, a TV-turned-movie celebrity.

After all, Sun Dayu has been in the film industry for three years, and he can speak well, so he has a lot of connections. It is not difficult to ask a female star like Lin Jiali to discuss cooperation.

As the boss, Qiao Wen naturally went with the director, which can be regarded as a show of sincerity.

The meeting place was a high-end teahouse, and the two waited in the private room for almost an hour before Lin Jiali's pedestrians arrived late.

It was the first time for Qiao Wen to see this beautiful female star, and she was a bit more beautiful than in the photos and movies, and she really fit the ignorant young lady in "Bravely Entering the World".

She was accompanied by bodyguards and maids. In short, it was not too big, but it was quite a show.

Then there are middle-aged women with capable looks. The two look somewhat similar. They should be his mother and manager.Mother Lin greeted the two of them politely: "Hello, both of you."

"Hello!" Qiao Wen and Sun Dayu stood up and responded, "Ms. Lin!"

After sitting down, Lin Jiali took a sip of tea first, then curled her lips in disgust, pushed the teacup aside, and said to her mother, "Mum, tell me!"

Mother Lin smiled and said, "I have read the outline of the script you gave me. We are very interested in the novel Bravely Entering the World. It is a great honor to invite Jiali to play the leading role. But you See if you can adjust the roles? I think the role of the heroine in the outline is a bit too small."

After he finished speaking, Lin Jiali answered with a haughty face: "That's right, the books I'm getting now are all female roles with a lot of roles. You are the new director of the new company, and you asked me to play the leading role because you value it." With my fame, I hope to rely on me to carry the box office. After all, Li Xingchen is acting in a movie for the first time."

She has a pure face, but her tone and attitude are clearly far from her appearance.

It's not surprising that when you become famous at a young age, you will get a little bit of fame and fortune when you see it.

Qiao Wen frowned slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, Sun Dayu looked at him in embarrassment, hesitated for a moment and said: "The scenes can be adjusted appropriately, even if there is no way to add more scenes, I can guarantee you some close-ups. "

Mother Lin said: "Actually..."

Lin Jiali was obviously upset, and interrupted her mother: "Anyway, the part in this book is not good now, you can come to me after you fix it. I only give you two weeks, and I won't wait after the deadline."

Qiao Wen smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back and discuss it."

Lin Jiali added: "There is also the film salary, add 20.00% to the price you gave, I don't worry if you are a new company, if you are confirmed to star, you must sign the contract and pay the film salary in full."

Mother Lin frowned and said, "Jiali..."

"Okay, Mommy, let's go!" Lin Jiali stood up, glanced at Qiao Wen and Sun Dayu lightly, "Remember, we won't wait after the expiration date."

Qiao Wen smiled and nodded, watching the pedestrians leave, the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

Sun Dayu sneered: "What kind of girl is this? She hasn't become a big star yet, so she plays big with us? I really thought we couldn't invite anyone else except her." After talking for a while, he added weakly, "But having said that, Her looks really fit Lin Yuk Wan."

Lin Yuwan is the heroine of "Bravely Entering the World".

Qiao Wen smiled: "We are a new company and you are a new director, and she is becoming popular again. This attitude is not surprising. I think her mother's attitude should be that she wants this role, and she is trying to negotiate conditions with me. Forget it, we Go back and ask Zhenbao to see if you can change a little bit—the role of the heroine."

However, Guan Zhenbao was very resolute in this matter, as if he finally knew that the work was his child, and he did not back down at all.

"Mr. Nan is based on Anan. How can I let the heroine steal the show? Besides, it's a Kung Fu movie. The audience won't want to watch it if I add a play to a young lady who doesn't have any kung fu!"

After speaking, he was almost filled with righteous indignation.

Qiao Wen also knew that it was not advisable to intervene in the creation. Hearing him say this, quickly take back his words, drive him to retreat and continue to polish the script, and tell him not to go to the Rose Palace to book a room before the script is completed. Of course, this is just It was a beautiful idea. Two days later, Guan Zhenbao slipped to the Rose Palace, and used the little money left in his pocket to pay Bai Fangfang for an hour.
