Chapter 243
The girl also entered that hairdressing shop together, and after suffering all kinds of difficulties and bullying, the two finally learned a particularly good craft.

After finishing their studies, they saved some money in Shanghai and opened a small barber shop.

The barber shop was doing very well, and the size of the store doubled in less than two years. In the end, they opened three branches and settled down in Shanghai.

The male protagonist of the story hired a particularly powerful actor. He was not very handsome, but his acting skills were very good.

After the story was over, the screen turned and an interview was inserted.

The interviewed couple held their children in their arms. They began to tell the story of how they came from the north, how they met each other, how they owned their own barber shop, and finally settled down in Shanghai.

This is a true story.

After the first story was told, soon the second story began.

The second story is called candied haws.

This story tells the story of Liu Meiyun's family. Liu Meiyun and her wife live in the Northwest.

They have two sons and a daughter in their family.

The two brought up their sons and daughters on the meager land, but in a blink of an eye, the eldest son reached the age where he needed to get married.

Raising sheep and farming at home obviously couldn't earn enough bride price for his son.

So the two elderly people over the age of 70 had to go to Xijing City to work in a car without telling their families.

In Xijing City, because of their age, they could not find suitable jobs, and the money they had with them soon ran out.

So the old couple had to pick up rubbish on the street to make a living.

While picking up trash, they saw a seller of candied haws on the street.

The couple stared at the peach gourd for a long time.

Then winter came, and the first snow fell in Xijing.

The two old men wore very little. Because they had no place to live, they huddled under the bridge and shivered.

Liu Meiyun asked her husband, how long will we stay?

The old man's wrinkled face stared into the distance.

The distance is the direction of his high loess slope.

The old man didn't speak, but just wiped the red corners of his eyes.

"Why go back? You've survived your whole life, just grit your teeth and persevere.

When we earn enough money and marry our baby, what kind of life will we not be able to live by then? "

As soon as the old man finished speaking, someone suddenly fell off the bridge with a plop.

Someone jumped into the river.

There were a lot of people scrambling to watch by the river bank, but none of them actually went down to rescue.

Without saying a word, the old man took off his cotton coat and jumped into the river with a splash.

Soon the old man pulled the man who jumped into the river up.

Everyone took a video of what happened to the old man and posted it on the Internet, and soon the old man became popular.

Various media came to interview him. When everyone knew that the old man and his wife were still living in the bridge hole, many people shed tears.

So many factories invite two people to work.

But on New Year's Eve, the two quietly left the city.

After leaving the city, they found a kiln factory.

The couple worked in the kiln factory for three full years, and they never went home once in these three years.

Three years later, they had saved enough money for their eldest son's wedding. Just as they were about to go home, a car stopped at the gate of the kiln.

This person is none other than his eldest son.

His eldest son shed tears when he saw the news that they lived in the bridge hole three years ago.

So he worked hard for the past three years, and finally saved enough money for his marriage this year.

The old couple sat in the eldest son's car. When passing by Xijing, the old man saw the candied haws on the street again.

Liu Meiyun asked her son to stop the car. After the car stopped, old Meiyun stooped and ran over to buy a bunch of candied haws and handed it to the driver's cab.

"Here! You always wanted to eat it when you were a child, but you didn't have the money to buy it at that time. Mom will remember it all your life!"

After receiving the candied haws, the eldest son remembered the scene when he was crying and wanted to eat candied haws when he was a child, and he turned around and cried.

At the end of the story, a middle-aged man in a suit appeared in front of the camera. He is the boss of a listed company.

His mother passed away just two days ago, and he couldn't help sobbing when he mentioned the candied haws.

This is also a true story.

At the end of the movie, there is a story called the Iron Cavalry Army.

Iron Cavalry tells the story of ordinary people in the Guizhou and Xixi provinces in the south of Xia Kingdom riding motorcycles to the coastal areas to work.

Every year after the beginning of spring, they brave the cold wind and go to the coastal areas to work. After the arrival of the New Year, they ride their motorcycles back to their hometown where the mountain roads are rugged.

Some people have to ride the furthest for 3 or [-] days. They go home to see their children, and bring their yearly hopes and labors to this iron riding road back to their hometown.

After the nearly two-hour movie was over, the people in the theater had tears in their eyes.

I have to say that this is really a tear-jerking movie. After watching this movie, everyone has been emotional for a long time.

"This Mugan, this shot is not bad!"

Jiang Chen was even thinking, if he invests the money he earns in him, will he create another box office miracle.

"Then I'll give it a try!"

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen directly dialed the numbers of Mu Gan and Lao Luo of Taoyuan Films.

Less than 10 minutes after the call was made, Lao Luo and Mu Gan rushed to the cinema in the shopping plaza.

In an office in the shopping plaza cinema, Jiang Chen closed the door.

"Mugan, the movie you made is very good.

However, you are a new director, and the small victory in front of you may be due to luck.

This does not mean that you have become a leading figure among new directors.

So I decided to test you once, and it's time for you to accept a real test. "

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, Mu Gan nodded seriously.

In Taoyuan Village, they all regarded Jiang Chen as a mythical figure.

Jiang Chen is a great sage, so he is a wise man, and everything he said is correct.

"Boss, I am willing to accept the test!"

"Our Taoyuan Film Industry is also willing to accept new challenges!"

After Lao Luo and Mu Gan finished speaking, Jiang Chen nodded at them.

"It is impossible to have only one real film investor, including his announcement and so on.

Because every movie is full of risks, the way everyone wants to minimize the risk is for many people to jointly invest in this movie.

Even if you lose money at that time, everyone will lose money together, but you won't lose too much money.

I gave you 1 million for the first movie, why should I give you so much money?
That's because I know that as a newcomer, it is impossible for others to invest in you.

But it's different now, now you have your first work, and it has been recognized by the market.

So if you want to prepare a new film, investment companies may come to invest.

So this time my test for you is that I will only give you 200 million, and you need to raise sponsorship and investment for the rest of the money yourself.

You need to experience the hardships of a director yourself, so that you can cherish your shooting opportunities even more. "

After Jiang Chen finished speaking, Mu Gan didn't know what kind of mood he should have.

It stands to reason that someone like him who shot a movie with a box office of 7 million in one go is definitely the darling of the market.

So as an investor, Jiang Chen should invest more money in him to make better movies.

Now only give him 200 million and let him make the next movie, what kind of showmanship is this?

"Boss, I think I can..."

Before Mu Gan finished speaking, Lao Luo quickly stopped him.

"Okay, 200 million is 200 million, and we can definitely find a way to get the rest of the money together!"

After Lao Luo finished speaking, Jiang Chen waved to him, indicating that they could leave.

When the two of them walked to the door, Mu Gan still said unwillingly, "Mr. Luo, why are you stopping me?
I'm really in a position to do more expensive movies now! "

After Mu Gan finished speaking, Lao Luo lit a cigarette and started smoking.

"You are still young! Don't you see that the boss is testing you?

Young people are prone to inflate whenever they achieve a little achievement.

Once inflated, it is not far from his failure.

After a little achievement, what we should do is to walk on eggshells.

Because once we fail, we will be sprayed to death by then! ! "

After Mr. Luo finished speaking, Mu Gan still puzzled and said, "I know too.

If the quality of our second film cannot keep up, then everyone will call our success a fluke.

And if our second movie is successful, Taoyuan Pictures will become a banner in the film industry, which will be a guarantee of box office and quality.

It is precisely for this reason that I want more money to make better movies! "

After Mu Gan finished his defense, Lao Luo didn't speak.

He sat on the side of the road and lit his cigarette and smoked the whole cigarette.

"Think about Brother Chen's words again, he told us to look for investment like other directors.

I think this sentence is very connotative, and he may be hinting at something for us. "

After Lao Luo finished speaking, Mu Gan also began to think about what he was talking about.

"Does the boss mean that we should still focus on the internal affairs of our group?"

After Mu Gan finished speaking, Lao Luo slapped his thigh and said, "Yes! Absolutely!

I knew Brother Chen was a wise man, and a wise man could not reduce our shooting costs.

He didn't give us money, which means it's obvious, he asked us to shoot some things inside our Taohuayuan.

Then let those companies invest money in us. At that time, we will not only have the money to make movies, but also promote all the businesses of our group by the way! "

After Lao Luo finished speaking, Mu Gan also lit a cigarette. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the boss was really...

"Mr. Luo, if you say Brother Chen asked us to do something, just say it directly. Why does he still let us guess?"

While the two were trying their best to guess Jiang Chen, Jiang Chen was drinking in the room.

"It's such a headache, I only earned 200 million for a movie.

This is a big Chinese New Year, so many companies, I have not received a penny.

With only this little money in my pocket, I have to invest in you to make a movie. It's really hard for me! "

Time passed quickly, and another five days passed in a blink of an eye.

Sure enough, the box office of Hello Worker reached more than 5 million directly as Lao Luo and the others predicted.
