Seeing a gentleman [entertainment circle]

The next day, according to Xiao Fei's request, Gu Yun helped him make an appointment with He Pinglan at the Starlight Forest Cafe.

It wasn't just He Pinglan who came, there was another man who followed He Pinglan.Xiao Fai knew the man who followed, Qian Xiusi, and he wrote the script "When a Flower Blooms".

The two men looked to be in their early forties. Although they were both wearing suits, the suits could be seen as ordinary brand-name suits, and they were not even ironed neatly. They looked a bit down and out when they wore them.Especially He Pinglan, with obvious fatigue in his eyes, probably because he didn't sleep well last night.

This is indeed the case. He Pinglan was still excited for a long time when he received a call from Gu Yun last night and learned that Xiao Fen was interested in the play they were holding.After all, judging from the current popularity, Xiao Fen can be regarded as popular. If he can be invited to play the leading actor, it will be a good selling point for the movie itself.

In addition to this, He Pinglan still has a small expectation in his heart. Xiao Fu is a member of Xingyao, and he is a newcomer that Xingyao strongly recommends. If he is willing to accept this drama, does it mean that Xingyao will be interested in investing? Woolen cloth?

With such expectations in mind, he told the screenwriter Qian Xiusi about the matter, and the two men didn't have a good rest all night, and they rushed here early in the morning.

At this time, he immediately saw Xiao Fai sitting on the sofa. Because the weather was getting colder, the young man was wearing a light gray sweater with a white shirt inside and ordinary jeans underneath.It is obviously simple and casual to wear, but when placed on the young man, his temperament is as warm as water but timeless.

Slightly dazed, but He Pinglan immediately remembered the identity of the young man, he hurried over and stretched out his hand to the young man, "Mr. Xiao."

Xiao Po stood up and smiled at him, "Director He."

He Pinglan was a little flattered that he didn't seem to expect Xiao Fen's attitude to be so kind. He quickly waved his hand, "Mr. Xiao is polite." Then he pointed to Qian Xiusi and introduced, "This is the screenwriter of the script, Qian Xiusi."

"Hello, Screenwriter Qian."

"Mr. Xiao."

After exchanging pleasantries, the three of them sat down one after another, Xiao Peng asked, "What would you two like to drink?"

He Pinglan waved his hands again and again, "Mr. Xiao, you don't have to be so polite, let's drink whatever we want."

"Then how?" Xiao Pian smiled slightly, turned to ask Qian Xiusi, "Where is Mr. Qian?"

It was Qian Xiusi who was straightforward, and he replied directly: "I want a glass of Blue Mountain, just give him a latte."

There was no need for Xiao Peng to say anything, Gu Yun tactfully went down to call the waiter.

Seeing Gu Yun leave, He Pinglan spoke again, and he asked expectantly: "I know Mr. Xiao, you are also a busy person, so I won't waste your time, just cut to the chase! I don't know Mr. Xiao Asked me out this time, did you decide to take over the male lead of Blossom?"

"Director He just call me by my name." Xiao Pie smiled and said something inconsequential, and then nodded, "Of course, I am very optimistic about Director He's play, and I also like the role of He Xiao very much."

He Xiao is the name of the leading actor in "When a Flower Blooms".

He Pinglan and Qian Xiusi immediately looked at each other after hearing the second half of his sentence. He Pinglan couldn't help but clenched his fists to show his congratulations, while Qian Xiusi heaved a sigh of relief, and looked back at Xiao Fen with closer eyes. .

"Great!" He Pinglan said, also a little incoherent, "I didn't expect Xiao Pei that you would be willing to take this role, you know..."

Although he didn't say the following words, Xiao Fen knew what he wanted to say.If he guessed correctly, He Pinglan's current situation is not very good. The few films he made before have received mediocre responses. To be serious, he has lost money. Not only no investors are willing to invest in his films, but even the actors are very poor. Few are willing to take on his role.Being able to stand up at this time, for He Pinglan, is like sending charcoal in a timely manner.

But the only problem now is the investment. I wonder if the real estate businessman has hooked up with He Pinglan?If you have already set up the line, do you still have the opportunity to inject capital?

Thinking in his heart, Xiao Fen didn't ask this question right away, because at this time, a waiter just brought up the two cups of coffee he ordered earlier, plus the cup of Americano coffee that Xiao Fie himself ordered, the conversation between the three of them was considered a farewell for the time being. a paragraph.

After drinking a few sips of coffee, Xiao Fie reckoned that it was almost time, so he put down his cup and said with a smile, "Director He, I didn't see the specific shooting time in the email you sent before, so you can check it if it's convenient for you." Can't you tell me now?"

"This..." He Pinglan's original movement of drinking coffee stopped immediately. He subconsciously glanced at Qian Xiusi, and seeing that the other party was also looking at him, he could only sigh, put down the cup and said bitterly: "Since Xiao Fen You agreed to join the film crew, so I can't hide it from you, in fact, the funds for the film crew have not been in place yet, and it's still unknown when the filming will start!"

"But what we can guarantee is that as soon as the funds are in place, we can start shooting immediately!" Qian Xiusi who was next to him seemed to be afraid that he would regret it, and hurriedly added.

"Yes, yes!" He Pinglan nodded again and again. He looked at Xiao Fai with nervous eyes, fearing that the young man in front of him would withdraw his previous decision because the funds for the crew were not in place.

"Don't worry, Director Yan." Xiao Fu could see the nervousness of the two of them at a glance. He was secretly excited in his heart, but on the surface he remained calm and continued to show his usual gentle smile. I will never regret this role."

"That's good." He Pinglan breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, if possible, I would like to ask how big the crew's funding gap is at present?"

Although it was a bit difficult to say, He Pinglan only hesitated for a while and then stammered: "My estimated capital is about 500 million, and no one has agreed to invest yet."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiao Fai with hidden eyes, and several thoughts turned in his mind in turn.

Xiao Fei asked this, is it because Xingyao is interested in investing?

Yeah?right?Tell him it must be!

Maybe it was fate that took pity on this middle-aged man. After staring at Xiao Fen for a minute, he saw the young man opposite him slowly raise his head, and then asked him with a smile, "Director He, if I say I have this Would you like to invest in this movie?"

The moment his voice fell, He Pinglan was about to jump up, and he said excitedly, "Of course it's no problem! Xingyao's investment is of course us...wait!" He suddenly stopped his words, and was surprised Looking at Xiao Pian anxiously, "You said you want to invest? Not Xingyao?"

"Of course." Xiao Peng wanted to laugh, when did he mention Xingyao?He never mentioned the name.

"Are you rich?" He Pinglan asked subconsciously, but as soon as the words came out of his mouth, he realized his slip of the tongue, so he smiled apologetically, "Sorry, that's not what I meant."

"It's okay." Xiao Po smiled and shook his head, continuing his previous topic, "I want to invest in this movie in my own name, because I am very optimistic about the prospect of flowers blooming."

He Pinglan was silent now instead, he and Qian Xiusi looked at each other, and both saw the same meaning in each other's eyes.

every dog ​​has his day!

The clenched fists were slowly released. Even though he was ecstatic in his heart, He Pinglan still asked calmly: "Then how much money can you invest, Xiao Fu?"

Xiao Peng chuckled, "800 million, if not enough, you can add more."

800 million!

Now He Pinglan really couldn't keep calm anymore.In his original expectation, Xiao Fai was able to spend 200 million yuan, which is already the sky. After all, the young man has only made his debut not long ago, but he invested so much all at once!You must know that Huakai is a literary film, 500 million is already a lot, as for 800 million?

I'm sorry, but He Pinglan has already started to think about whether to change the actors who were originally scheduled.

Seeing him in a daze, Qian Xiusi poked him secretly, and He Pinglan finally came to his senses, "Enough! 800 million is definitely enough!"

"Then I'll ask Gu Yun to transfer the money to you." Xiao Peng laughed.

"Okay, okay, no problem!" He Pinglan said, suddenly remembered something, and added: "By the way, Xiao Fu, I brought the full version of the script, do you want to read it?"

"That's really great!" Xiao Po's eyes lit up.

************

After the deal was concluded, the four of them left the coffee shop together. He Pinglan and Qian Xiusi changed from the decadent look they had when they came in, and became full of ambition.

You must know that even though he had sent the script to Xiao Fai before this, in fact, he just had the mentality of giving it a try. He never imagined that the young man would agree to take over the role in it, let alone attract investment.

Therefore, when looking at the young man at this time, his attitude is much softer, "I will draw up the specific contract as soon as possible, if you have any requirements to add, you must say it as soon as possible."

"I don't have any requests for now." Xiao Fen shook his head, "When the time comes to sign a contract or something, you should contact Gu Yun, he will be responsible for handling this matter."

"well."

It’s good to have nothing to say. After He Pinglan and Qian Xiusi left, Gu Yun looked at Xiao Fai suspiciously, "Do you have so much money, A Fen?"

In fact, he was already stunned when Xiao Peng spoke before, as calm as Manager Gu wanted to swear.

As Xiao Fen's manager, can he not know how much money he has?A TV series, a movie, and the endorsement fees of several advertisements add up to about this amount, but the key is to deduct the money to the company.

Where did Ai get so much money?

Gu Yun was very curious.He knew Xiao Fai's situation well, so he naturally knew that it was impossible for him to have such a large sum of money due to his family background, so there was only one possibility left, asking Yingying Emperor Yan for it?

After much deliberation, Gu Yun didn't think of any other possibility, but Xiao Fai seemed to see his thoughts, and gave him a faint look to explain: "I won a double-color ball award once before, and the bonus was 4000 million."

Gu Yun: "..." 4000 million or something, he doesn't want to talk anymore.
