Back To 2005

Who are you?

Looking at the girl in the duck hat curiously, Zhou Anan asked with some confusion.

He didn't know how the other party knew his last name.

I'm Liu Mi. I met you in Hengcheng before.

The young woman who pulled down her mask, revealing a beautiful oval face said with a smile.

Oh, Miss Liu, nice to meet you. This is our second meeting.

Recognizing the other party's iconic face, Zhou Anan responded with a smile.

He did meet the other person once in Hengcheng before. It seemed that the other party was participating in the Running Bar program produced by Blue Whale. There was no communication during the whole process. It was just a one-time relationship at most. He did not expect that the other party remembered it so clearly.

He was quite surprised to meet this Mi Mi by chance at this temporarily selected restaurant. It seemed that she had encountered a little trouble.

From what the other party said, it seemed that they had reserved seats in advance, but no relevant information could be found.

Considering the five-star reputation of Qianbao Hotel, this kind of mistake is a bit too low-level.

Yeah, what a coincidence.

Meeting this heavyweight in the entertainment industry and facing an embarrassing situation, Liu Mi was really embarrassed and subconsciously pulled her agent.

How many people can sit in the seat I reserved?

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Zhou Anan asked the waiter next to him.

Mr. Zhou, you reserved a seat for two people.

Can it be changed to a table for four?

OK.

After receiving a positive answer from the waiter, Zhou Anan smiled and said to the two beauties: Miss Liu, if you don't mind, let's have dinner together.

Thanks.

Seeing the other party changing positions so easily, Liu Mi, who considered herself relatively famous, felt the huge gap between her and the other party, but she did not reject the other party.

Despite their glamorous appearance, their artists can only be regarded as ordinary people with a slightly higher income in front of these capital bosses, unless they can also become a member of the capital.

Mr. Zhou, thank you so much. We made a reservation before, but it didn't show up in the restaurant system. I didn't expect that a restaurant of the size of Huangji Hall would have such a low-level mistake.

Compared to his own artists who are slightly more reserved, Li Ruoyao's attitude is much more enthusiastic and she doesn't complain about anything.

She was very angry at being treated like this by Huangji Hall, but meeting this senior executive of Blue Whale Entertainment by chance was definitely a blessing in disguise.

You're welcome, let's go. Just in time, I have something I want to talk to Miss Liu about.

With a flat smile, Zhou Anan walked into the restaurant with the two beauties.

The Huangji Hall is similar to a revolving restaurant, with a circle of small private booths surrounding the floor-to-ceiling windows. You can enjoy the scenery of the Greater Magic City from any position.

This kind of experience of seeing everyone downstairs is very popular among the petty bourgeoisie young people in big cities.

What Zhou Anan got was a small box with seating for four people. It had a nice view and was very private.

I wonder if Mr. Zhou has anything to do with our Mimi?

After ordering the food, Li Ruoyao, who was holding back her curiosity, finally took the initiative to ask.

Today's Liu Mi's biggest representative role is Xiao Guoxiang a few years ago. After that, she had many TV drama roles, but none of them had much influence.

The current situation in the TV drama industry is changing rapidly, and newcomers are emerging in large numbers. If you are not careful, you will be drowned in this big wave.

After learning that Tang Ren was going to produce Sword and Sword III, Li Ruoyao, who valued Liu Mi very much, finally found an opportunity and made an appointment with the production director of Tang Ren Film and Television, but the other party broke the appointment.

Not only that, the previously reserved location at Huangji Hall was no longer available, so the luck was extraordinary.

If he can get the attention of Mr. Zhou, Liu Mi will be in great shape.

Our company is preparing to produce a movie and would like to hire Miss Liu as the heroine.

After taking a sip of light tea, Zhou Anan revealed the film shooting plan that he had thought of at the last minute.

For this Mi Mi, Zhou Anan was most impressed by Sansei III, which became popular a few years later, and the niche hit movie Far Cry.

But before I saw that the other party had already started to have a very good figure, I suddenly thought of a certain entertainment time-travel novel I had read in my previous life. In it, the male protagonist received his first pot of gold through a change movie starring Mimi, and then cheated all the way to become the world Famous director.

Now that he met the other person, Zhou Anan didn't mind trying it out to see if he could make a movie of the same style and make a profit for the company.

There is no way. Although the TV series produced by Blue Whale Entertainment this year have been sold at good prices, due to the huge amount of money previously loaned to acquire Marvel shares, the dividends at the end of the year are basically not much.

In terms of open source, Zhou Anan, who has a heavy task, is also worried.

If, like that entertainment novel, Shark Beach, which has no script, an undecided protagonist, and pending investment, can achieve both word-of-mouth and box office success, that would be pretty good.

Even if it loses money, the investment in a movie with a single female protagonist and a little special effects is not big, so it won't lose much.

That's really an honor for us. I wonder what kind of movie your company is investing in?

Unexpectedly, there were so many female stars in the other company's company, and they actually thought of her own female artist. Li Ruoyao was a little flattered, and she carefully considered her words to ask the questions in her heart.

Of course, the biggest question in her heart was hard to ask and she didn't dare to ask it.

It's a thriller.

Regarding this question, Zhou Anan thought about it and gave an answer.

He was still very impressed by that movie with a single female protagonist. After all, the female protagonist played by a foreign beauty in the original version was wearing a bikini throughout the whole movie. Her figure was so good that a single otaku would often press the pause button.

At least, Zhou Anan in her previous life spent more than three hours in bed with her cell phone.

And if we really talk about the plot, it is indeed quite tense, and there was no peeing throughout the whole process.

this.

She thought it was an urban drama or a costume drama, but she didn't expect it to be a thriller. Li Ruoyao subconsciously wanted to refuse.

Are you kidding me? The so-called horror and thriller movies in China are all made on the basis of respecting science. They are not very attractive to the audience at all and they belong to a very niche genre.

Not to mention word-of-mouth or not, it definitely doesn’t have that kind of thing. Just talking about the box office, it’s also very generous.

Even if the investment is not small, it is a project that cannot be accepted.

Although Mimi has participated in two movies before, they were all indispensable supporting roles. She cannot be blamed for the poor reputation at the box office.

However, once a movie starring Mimi hits the market, it is likely to be labeled as box office poison, and the difficulty of entering the big screen will increase exponentially.

No, it should be said that when shooting a thriller in China, there is a 99.9% chance that it will be a hit.

At that time, the audience and fans didn't care about the reason for the movie's failure, they would only blame the lead actor.

This kind of thing is common in the entertainment industry, and many people have sadly left the big screen because of it.

You see, many of the top artists in the TV drama industry do not dare to set foot on the big screen, for fear of damaging their reputation if they make a mistake.

Not to mention the decline in reputation, the loss of popularity, the remuneration will also be reduced, and eventually it will become the first wave on the beach among many later waves, and it is inevitable in the entertainment industry that changes very quickly.

Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your appreciation. I will accept this movie.

When the agent hesitated, Liu Mi, as a client, simply accepted this niche film.

Mimi, you should toast Mr. Zhou with a few glasses of wine.

She was about to persuade her agent not to be impulsive, but when she saw the firm look in his eyes, Li Ruoyao reacted immediately and followed what the other person said.

Yes, she thought that the failure of the movie would only have a negative impact on her own artists, but she did not consider that the person sitting in front of her was not an ordinary director, but Blue Whale Entertainment, which had developed the annual box office champion, reputation, and revenue since its establishment. Double Harvest Blue Whale Entertainment executives.

Even if this thriller loses money and fails, the other party will definitely compensate Mimi.

Therefore, whether to accept this invitation or not is a matter that does not need to be considered at all.

Yes, yes, our artist's mind was moving much faster than hers this time, and her manager almost blinded her.

Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough to make up for the little bad impression she had before, and tried her best to win this rare opportunity for her artist.

After boarding the giant ship of Blue Whale Entertainment, her own artist is about to take off, and her manager will naturally rise.

There is no need to toast, just don't blame me then. The technical difficulty of this movie is not high, but the requirements for the heroine's acting skills are not low, and hard work is indispensable.

Seeing how decisive this Mimi was, Zhou Anan's eyes became more appreciative.

No wonder the other party was able to do so well in the future. Not only did he found his own film and television company, he also dug out many outstanding artists under his banner, and gained both fame and fortune, which is enviable.

Mr. Zhou was joking, which artist in this industry doesn't have to work hard, but we Mimi can still endure hardships.

After figuring out the key, Li Ruoyao's communication skills came into full play and she was able to chat with ease.

In just one meal, with the help of Li Ruoyao, a master of topics, the relationship between the three of them was very harmonious.

When Zhou An'an went to the bathroom, the smile on Li Ruoyao's face dropped and she looked at her artist next to her seriously: Mimi, there is something you need to think about clearly. There is no love without reason in the world, Zhou They always leave female artists as big as Blue Whale Entertainment unused, but they choose you, so you still have to be careful about this.
