This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Xia Xi handed over the script sent by Qin Mo from the company to Wang Cheng two days ago.

 However, Wang Cheng has not read a single page.

because!

Break time.

 He won’t do anything at work.

 When work officially started today, Wang Cheng got into the nanny car, headed to the airport, and flew to Hengdian!

Although Qin Mo’s crew is a small investment, they are still filming in Hengdian. After all, there are various scenes there that are convenient for filming, and Hengdian is not far away, so commuting is very convenient!

Xia Xi was sitting in the front seat of the nanny car. After seeing Wang Cheng get in the car, she took out a stack of paper and read it. She knew that this was the script she had given to Wang Cheng. She moved her lips and said, "Wang Cheng, Qin Mo Say this script is useless!"

Wang Cheng paused while flipping through the script, then raised his head and glanced at Xia Xi doubtfully.

Xia Xi smiled bitterly and said: "Yesterday Qin Mo called me and said that this script has been abandoned again. She is discussing a new script with the new screenwriter. She said that you should rest after you go to the crew and wait for the script to be discussed. Familiarize yourself with the script and wait until she finds the actors before filming."

  New script?

Still looking for an actor?

so!

Has the crew restarted?

Wang Cheng was a little speechless and casually placed the script in his hand on the seat next to him.

 He knew that the tasks assigned to him by Shen Shenghui and Qin Yuhai were definitely not that simple.

 However, he didn't expect that Qin Mo's crew would be so unreliable!

but.

 He didn't mind that.

 It’s good to have no work, and I can rest on the set again.

Xia Xi continued: "Qin Mo said that because of your arrival, she gave up the script she had just prepared before and wanted to tailor a script for you and make you the protagonist."

Wang Cheng hummed, indicating that he understood, and didn't care.

  Anyway, this is just a job.

Wang Cheng took out a book and continued reading.

Xia Xi has gradually adapted to Wang Cheng's attitude. She knows that Wang Cheng's usual indifference is not directed at anyone, but that he himself is so indifferent to everyone and everything, as if he is indifferent to everything in the world. Like not interested.

She doesn’t know how Wang Cheng’s character developed like this.

 However, Wang Cheng is so attractive.

 Perfect appearance and temperament, her talent and strength have exceeded the upper limit of imagination, and she still lives in solitary confinement. She has an indifferent personality and avoids strangers. She can resist any temptation of fame, fortune and beauty...

 Such a perfect existence imagined by all women?

Wang Cheng was reading quietly, and Xia Xi just looked at it, a little obsessed for a while, not paying attention to the time!

It was not until Wang Cheng got off the train at the high-speed rail station that Xia Xi came to her senses. Her face turned rosy and she hurriedly helped Wang Cheng get his things.

Wang Cheng did not ask her for help. He carried a backpack and pulled a simple suitcase towards the station. He still had a hat on his head and a mask covering most of his face.

 Most people would not associate him with Wang Cheng, who is famous all over the world and has countless fans.

Xia Xi knew that Wang Cheng didn't like to be disturbed, so she dressed up like Wang Cheng, wearing a cap and a mask, covering most of her face.

 Otherwise, she knew that her temperament and appearance would attract a lot of people's attention. If Wang Cheng's whereabouts were exposed and Wang Cheng didn't like her, Wang Cheng might hate her.

Getting on the bus smoothly, arriving at Hengdian, and getting off the bus, no one noticed them.

after all!

There are many celebrities, tourists and fans who come to Hengdian every day. There are not a few people dressed like them, so it is not very eye-catching.

At the station, Qin Mo personally brought someone to pick up Wang Cheng.

 Others would not care about Wang Cheng and Xia Xi, but Qin Mo recognized Wang Cheng and Xia Xi who were following Wang Cheng at a glance.

 In fact, she was very familiar with Wang Cheng and had a profound influence on him. Coupled with her conscious search, she could see at a glance Wang Cheng's outstanding temperament and Xia Xi's unique temperament.

 “This way!”

Qin Mo waved his hand and stepped forward to help Wang Cheng get something. He didn't care after being rejected by Wang Cheng, and said happily: "Wang Cheng, welcome! Come on, I've booked the best hotel in Hengdian for you. Here you go Let’s take a rest first and start filming when our script comes out! By the way, do you understand the script? Do you want to discuss it together?”

Wang Cheng shook his head, not interested.

Although, he wrote many scripts in his previous life, many of which were box office hits.

However, at this time, he just wanted to relax and work as little as possible, so he just shook his head and refused.

However, Qin Mo said to himself: "I wanted to make a comedy before. In the past two years, there have been several popular comedies that were small and big, with a cost of several million and sold hundreds of millions at the box office. However, after filming both scripts, I felt I didn’t like them and the actors didn’t perform well, so I simply stopped filming.”

“Later, I wanted to make a horror film. There are also examples of success with a small budget. You can make a big profit with a small amount, but I felt dissatisfied halfway through the film!”

“Now that you’re here, I think we can make a big movie, so I want to make a science fiction movie!”

“We in the Chinese entertainment industry have not yet made a successful science fiction film. If we succeed and make a successful science fiction blockbuster, it will definitely be a big hit..."

Qin Mo said very excitedly. It seemed that the science fiction film he imagined had become a great success. After its release, it became a box office hit, ushering in the first year of Chinese science fiction, and his name was recorded in the history of Chinese films.

but.

Wang Cheng and Xia Xi next to them both looked dull.

Wang Cheng has been in the entertainment industry all his life, and he is very familiar with the bragging in the entertainment industry.

Every director and producer brags like this when they first give investors or want to invite big names to join. They are all huge successes and start the first year...

 But in fact, very few can succeed!

 So, Wang Cheng has no feeling for this kind of bragging.

Xia Xi, who grew up in Beijing, is naturally well-informed about the entertainment industry. She knows that Qin Mo is just bragging, and if he wants to make a science fiction film, the investment will be huge, and he has no experience of success, so no one is willing to try it.

 Capital wants to make a profit, so it will naturally not do risky things.

Xia Xi whispered: "Isn't the investment enough? I heard that Mr. Qin gave a budget of several million. Wang Cheng's salary is included in the cost!"

Xia Xi knew about the contract signed between Wang Cheng and the company, and knew that Wang Cheng’s remuneration was included in the investment, so Qin Yuhai gave the entire profit from the film to Wang Cheng.

However, Xia Xi knew that this must be a trap. Seeing that Qin Mo had gone back and forth a few times and still couldn't take a picture, he knew that he would definitely not be able to take a picture in the end. He just wanted to disgust Wang Cheng.

Qin Mo paused for a moment, and then said: "It's okay! The budget is not enough, we can owe it. I know several studios that do special effects, and they can give you credit. We will pay you after the box office is out."

Xia Xi was confused: "Can I still pay on credit?"

Qin Mo whispered: "They do special effects. They don't have big orders. They can only make a living by making advertisements and some cartoons. I said I wanted to make a science fiction film, and they said they could support me on credit. They also wanted to try to make a science fiction film. Special effects. They learned and imported a lot of equipment from Hollywood, just to make our own Chinese science fiction, but when they came back they found that no one was making science fiction films, so they were willing to support us!"

“Now, when I prepare the script and recruit a few supporting actors, we will start shooting. Just wait for me in a few days!”

The more she said, the more confident Qin Mo became. She looked at Wang Cheng and saw that Wang Cheng's face was expressionless all the time. She felt relieved and a little disappointed, because she knew that Wang Cheng didn't care about what she wanted to do. Xia Xi asked instead: "What if the box office is not satisfactory by then? What if it is not enough to pay for the special effects?"

Qin Mo thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "We'll wait until the time comes. If it doesn't work out, I'll pay them myself."

She also knows that making a science fiction film is very risky, so there is a high chance that she cannot afford the special effects fees, so she has a plan in mind. If it doesn't work, she will have to expose her identity as a rich second generation and ask her family for money to pay off the debt.

Xia Xi has a little admiration for Qin Mo. She can see that Qin Mo is a rich second generation who really wants to make movies, and because he has been a bit player in many movies, he has a certain understanding of movies.

only…

 After all, I have never participated in production, so I have a serious lack of experience, and I don’t have a clear goal!

this…

Xia Xi didn’t know what to say, and she didn’t care about it anyway.

 She is not here to make a movie. She is just Wang Cheng's assistant. She is content to be by Wang Cheng's side. As long as Wang Cheng is satisfied, she is satisfied.

Several young people who came with Xia Xi looked at Wang Cheng curiously, wanting to see the legendary Wang Cheng in person, but Wang Cheng did not take off his mask or hat, and they could not see Wang Cheng's true face, and Wang Cheng Cheng exuded the aura that no strangers should enter, and they did not dare to come forward to talk to him, so they could only follow him silently.

 A group of people got into the car.

 Xia Xi, Wang Cheng, and Qin Mo called a nanny car and went directly to the booked hotel.

Qin Mo personally sent Wang Cheng to the door of the room: "Wang Cheng, I'm sorry! You will rest here for the past two days. Xia Xi's room is next door. Let Xia Xi take you around first. In two or three days at most, I will I will give you a script. Once you are familiar with the script, we will start filming! As for other supporting roles and supporting roles, I am already looking for people."

Wang Cheng walked into the room and said hum. He didn't care about this. Of course he was happy to continue to rest.

Xia Xi smiled and said: "It's okay, Qin Mo, you go and do your work first. I will take good care of Wang Cheng and wait for your good script!"

Qin Mo also laughed: "Okay, I'll leave first! If you need anything, you can contact me at any time, even in the middle of the night. I'll be here at your call."

Qin Mo didn't want Wang Cheng to be dissatisfied with her. Firstly, because she was a fan of Wang Cheng and had some illusions about Wang Cheng, so she wanted to maintain her image in Wang Cheng's mind. Secondly, because she still wanted to Wang Cheng can cooperate with her well this time and produce a science fiction blockbuster that shocks the world.

However, when Wang Cheng walked into the room and started to take his things, Qin Mo knew that he was overthinking it, and Wang Cheng didn't care about it at all.

With a wry smile, Qin Mo waved to Xia Xi, said goodbye to Wang Cheng, and left quickly.

Wang Cheng had already taken out his clothes and toiletries and put them away. Then he took out his water glass and book. He took a sip of water and sat on the sofa to continue reading. It was still early for lunch, so he would read for a while. It's time to have lunch.

Xia Xi didn't say anything, she just helped Wang Cheng close the door to the room, and then went back to the room next door to pack her things. After packing, she ordered lunch for Wang Cheng and told Wang Cheng his preferences in detail. The hotel told him to make a meal that Wang Cheng would be satisfied with.

Since he is Wang Cheng's assistant, Xia Xi has been studying how to do this job well.

 What she wants to do is to let Wang Cheng not worry at all and arrange every aspect of his life for him.

 …

 Magic City, the headquarters of Rubik's Cube Entertainment.

Shen Shenghui came to Qin Yuhai's office: "Mr. Qin, Wang Cheng has gone to Qin Mo's crew. However, Qin Mo has to rewrite the script again, and the crew has almost disbanded. I heard that she wants to make science fiction!"

Qin Yuhai was watching a program on Ganxi Satellite TV on the computer, and Wang Cheng was writing the preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion on it.

 These days, he has to look at it at least once a day.

 After seeing it once, he liked the work even more.

It is said in the literary world that this is the first parallel prose of all time. There are also professional literary people on the Internet who have come out to analyze the mystery of it word by word. It can be said that every word is precious. In time, this article will definitely be used in school textbooks, and many new words will be born. Among them It also uses a lot of allusions. Without a certain amount of historical knowledge, no one can understand the allusions.

 The most important thing is that this is a work written by Wang Cheng on the spot!

This further highlights Wang Cheng’s strength and talent and the legendary story of the article itself. For works of art, increasing the legendary story also increases the value.

 Qin Yuhai really dreamed of collecting this work.

He didn't quite understand the artistry in it, but he just felt that it was very interesting to read, and he knew that the article was as rare as Wang Youjun's copybook that Li Er took to his grave, and its future value would be immeasurable.

 At this time, he already had a lot of wealth, and he had a relatively enthusiastic pursuit of this kind of art that could increase his seniority and circle.

If he could get the authentic works of Wang Cheng's "Tengwang Pavilion Preface" and "Nian Nujiao", he would be willing to immediately terminate Wang Cheng's contract and let Wang Cheng be free!

 But, he knew that Wang Cheng would not give it.

Shen Shenghui looked at Qin Yuhai, not surprised by this, and continued: "Wang Cheng will stay in the hotel as soon as he gets there, and he will not start filming until Qin Mo's script comes out!"

Qin Yuhai stared at the video screen and watched Wang Cheng finish writing the preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion in one go. Then he looked at Shen Shenghui and asked again: "Is there any way for me to get this preface to Prince Teng's Pavilion?"

Previously, Qin Yuhai also participated in the bidding for the Maple Bridge Night Mooring, but gave up after being given a quotation of one billion. Later, it was revealed that Wang Cheng's works were restricted from exporting. He also regretted it. If the news had been exposed earlier, he would have Will bid up to 1.5 billion.

However, he also knows that even if he bids 1.5 billion, he can't buy the Maple Bridge Night Mooring!

Shen Shenghui shook his head gently: "Mr. Qin, it's difficult, almost impossible! If this work leaks out and there is a possibility of trading, people like Zheng Qian and Wang Xueming will offer sky-high prices. I heard that Wang Xueming offered Zheng Qian up to two One billion, I wanted to buy the Maple Bridge Night Mooring, but Zheng Qian refused."

“If this preface to Prince Teng’s Pavilion were put up for auction now, it would be conservatively estimated to fetch a sky-high price of 4 billion, and it could eventually be sold for more than 5 billion.”

 Shen Shenghui did not say anything clearly.

 However, Qin Yuhai understood.

  Involving a price of more than 4 to 5 billion, Qin Yuhai is really not qualified to participate.

Shen Shenghui continued: "So, the only possibility of getting this work is that Wang Cheng is willing to give this work to Mr. Qin!"

 Qin Yuhai also showed a wry smile.

 Ask Wang Cheng to give it to him?

 He knew that this was even more impossible.

 Shake your head!

Qin Yuhai suppressed the desire to obtain this work and was full of regrets.

However, he still did not give up, he just suppressed it temporarily. If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely go all out.

 “What did Wang Cheng say?”

Qin Yuhai just remembered and asked.

 Shen Shenghui said it again.

Qin Yuhai said softly: "Then just go ahead and do whatever you want at the end of the semester, no matter what you shoot. Tell her that you only give her two months, and the film will be released in time for the Spring Festival. Wang Cheng also has to go to the Spring Festival Gala to rehearse! Time is up. When he arrives, we will arrange for Wang Cheng to join the Spring Festival Gala program team."

Shen Shenghui nodded: "Okay, I'll go and notify Qin Mo! What if the film is not finished in two months?"

Qin Yuhai's eyes flickered: "Then use the material she shot, edit it and release it at will. Moreover, I will also arrange for as many theaters as possible to release it, so that more people can see this film made by Wang Cheng!"

Shen Shenghui knew Qin Yuhai's plan. It was his plan at first, but now Wang Cheng's status in his heart is much higher, so he has gradually changed from a planner to an executor.
