future entertainment tycoon

When Shen Gu received the message from Xie Yu, he didn't know if it was because of his heart. He always felt that his complexion was not good, as if he was in a big worry, and there were dark circles under his eyes. When Shen Gu saw him, he wanted to laugh. There was nothing he could do. , the image in the courtyard of the shopping mall, with open arms saying that the building was taken over by me is too deep.

Xie Yu ignored the teasing look in the other party's eyes and coughed, "I heard you're going to make a costume drama?"

This kind of thing can't be hidden at all, after all, Shen Gu is building a film and television city with great fanfare, and he is making a lot of costumes and customizing some props.

"Yeah."

"I want to join." Xie Yu leaned against the back of the chair and casually tapped his leg.

In fact, when Xie Yu asked, Shen Gu already had a premonition, and he was a little bit embarrassed. Since Xie Yu asked in person, the small character would definitely not be able to satisfy the other party. position, but at the same time Shen Gu is very curious, is it possible that Xie Yu is also addicted to acting?

"It doesn't matter what the role is, but it has to be more distinctive. I think acting is quite interesting." I don't know if Xie Yu saw Shen Gu's question and answered it on his own initiative.

Shen Gu understood the subtext of this sentence, and it is estimated that he wanted to clean up his secondary image in that Lei drama.

"This one……"

"I invested 100 million in the crew." Xie Yu said flatly, as if he was talking about 100 yuan.

Shen Gu laughed immediately, as expected, a local tyrant is a local tyrant, he likes this straightforward attitude, and even the "buy, buy, buy" temperament that rushes to his face feels very kind.There is a character in the play who really fits Xie Yu's temperament. He is also high-spirited and hides a knife in his smile. Originally, Shen Gu also wanted to ask Xie Yu to play a guest role, but that character didn't appear much. If it was given to Xie Yu, he would have to add some He said: "There is a character in the play, who is the brother of the hero, that is, the emperor. It is very suitable for you."

The movements of Xie Yu's hands paused, and he leaned slightly, his voice tinged with a smile, "Emperor? Do you think I'm suitable to play the emperor?"

Before this, the new Mercury people had never been exposed to costume series, and their impression of the emperor was still the kind of cruelty and decisiveness taught in books. They were all masters of power and tactics. Xie Yu seemed to be quite thoughtful, but Not that kind of scheming.

"This drama has a light-hearted theme, not a historical one. The emperor in the drama is not an old man, but a young emperor. On the surface, he looks quite...friendly." Shen Gu managed to find such an adjective, "In fact, he is very wary. Heavy, and very suspicious, it is precisely because he is wary of his younger brother marrying a strong minister that he tricks his younger brother, who is a prince, to marry the daughter of a minor official."

After hearing this, Xie Yu felt that the role was good, as if it had depth, so he asked indifferently, "Who will play the male lead?"

Shen Gu wanted to say that he hadn't made a decision yet, but he was afraid that Xie Yu would hear the idea of ​​playing the leading role, so the words rolled in his mouth, and he said vaguely: "Jiang Xin."

The most popular male stars of Earth Entertainment today are Li Yao, Jiang Xin and Lin Wei. The former portrayed a gentle and considerate image in the early days, while the latter has recently portrayed a tough image. In fact, he is very smart. It is because he knows that his elder brother, who is the emperor, is on guard against him, so he always shows the illusion of not being motivated.

Having said that, Shen Gu didn't really want Jiang Xin to play the leading role in his heart, because Jiang Xin was the second young master of the Jiang family after all, and he always felt that he treated filming for fun. Although he signed a long-term contract with the company, a young master like him , I really don’t want to make a movie anymore, and it’s not that I can’t pay liquidated damages, not to mention there is Jiang Han in the middle, so Shen Gu can’t use too strong methods at that time.

Compared with him, Li Yao and Lin Wei's backgrounds are simpler, and to put it bluntly, they are easier to fiddle with. This is also the reason why Shen Gu didn't give Jiang Xin the leading role after "The Star on the Wishing Tree".

Xie Yu didn't know what Shen Gu thought. He seemed quite happy when he heard that it was Jiang Xin, so he immediately made a decision, "Okay, this role will be taken."

After the negotiation, the two sides cut off the communication, and Xie Yu brought funds into the group, which finally eased the financial constraints of Earth Entertainment. Shen Gu had invested all the money in the film and television base before, so the funds were relatively tight. This is the first attempt, everything has to be made new, the cost is not small, not to mention that after the costume series, Shen Gu still has a lot of plans to follow up, each of which requires money, he is now looking for money inside.

Shen Gu also knows that there are still very few stars in the company who can support the mainstay, but this time it may be too late to find a newcomer, so he finally gave the leading role to Jiang Xin.

I called Jiang Xin to the office, I haven't seen him for a few days, Jiang Xin became darker and thinner, Shen Gu unconsciously thought of his first role as the protagonist in "The Star on the Wishing Tree", the image of the arrogant young master, looking at it now, the change very big.

Shen Gu didn't exchange greetings with him, and cut straight to the point: "You also know that recently the company is planning to make a costume drama and plans to let you be the protagonist."

Jiang Xin sat down on her own, and when she heard this, she laughed strangely, "Me?"

Shen Gu couldn't help but frowned, decided to ignore his strange temper, and continued: "This is the first costume drama of New Mercury. I even invested in the construction of a film and television base, so you can see how much I value it. With you To tell you the truth, the script chosen at the earliest was not the current one, but a more poignant story, but you also know that Juli intends to make semi-manual kitchen utensils. Although serial dramas may not have a great impact on people, this one "The Gluttonous Princess" incorporates a lot of gourmet elements, showing ancient cooking skills, and the screenwriters have also put a lot of thought into this aspect, which can be regarded as a pavement for Juli's new model."

After Jiang Xin heard this, her heart turned sour. She thought that Shen Gu really supported her eldest brother in every possible way. The last commercial that she personally produced was fine, but this time it was a series after all, and she was thinking about her elder brother's career.

"Of course there will be other programs related to food later on." Because Jiang Xin is Jiang Han's younger brother and the second child of the Jiang family, Shen Gu doesn't mind telling him about it.

"Ah!" Shen Gu patted his head, "Let's get down to business, get down to business, this is the first costume drama, no matter what, the audience will definitely pay attention to it, so this drama is of great significance."

"What kind of character is the protagonist?" Jiang Xin interrupted him suddenly.

Shen Gu knew that Jiang Xin's temper was a bit weird, acting was not for making money or being famous, but just for fun, probably similar to Xie Yu, in short, Shen Gu didn't understand the mindset of rich people like them, and Jiang Xin didn't have to choose the role as the protagonist , on the contrary, he likes some challenging ones, such as the characters in "Pursue to the End", he likes them very much, so much that even though the whole film has been filmed, Jiang Xin will occasionally be affected by the image in the play, he himself may not be aware of it, But outsiders can sometimes hear a catchphrase or two of the characters in the play from his mouth.

Shen Gu thought for a while, and described it to him, "The protagonist is a prince, usually cynical, only knows how to fight dogs and dogs, and is dissolute, and has gradually gained a ridiculous reputation...Don't frown, listen to me, this is just superficial, The male protagonist’s older brother is the emperor, and being an emperor is always suspicious, always afraid of being robbed of the throne by his younger brother, so the male protagonist made this false appearance to show the emperor’s elder brother, in fact, he is very smart and wise to protect himself.”

After Jiang Xin listened, he asked impatiently, "Isn't the elder brother already the emperor? What else is there to worry about?"

Shen Gu sighed, "When you become an emperor, you are always afraid that you will lose your throne."

Jiang Xin pouted.

"How is it? Isn't this a good role?"

Jiang Xin nodded, agreeing.

Shen Gu let out a breath, and tapped the media, "I'll pass on the script to you in a while, and I'll join the team for a meeting the day after tomorrow, and the main roles have already been finalized."

"kindness."
