The Second Patriarch of Yan Mo Wangdian
Chapter 44
Jun Kechen booked the plane at [-]:[-] p.m. Zhong You originally wanted to see him off, but Director Qian gave him a call to dispel his idea.In order to catch up with the dinner with the investor, Zhong You went to the company before noon, and went to the pre-booked hotel together with Director Qian and Producer Zhou who had never worked with him before.
In the past, Wang Hui did all the preparatory work, such as negotiating investment, by himself.Now it's a different person, it's not easy to enslave/serve others as soon as you come up, and you have to take your time to adjust and so on.
Producer Zhou chose a five-star restaurant closest to the company. Since it specializes in seafood dishes, when he approached the restaurant, surrounded by blue wallpapers and a giant fish tank in front of the stage, Zhong You thought he was near the bottom of the sea. world.
Their private room is the first one on the right hand side on the second floor, which can well block out the noise from outside.The investors invited this time, according to Producer Zhou, there are three in total. Director Qian and Zhong You decided to invite the leading actors who participated in "Underworld" after discussion. familiar with each other.
Zhong You peeked at his watch, it was already 01:30, and the investor who had made an appointment was still one family away.Producer Zhou has already called the other party's assistant no less than three times. Either he said there was an urgent matter and he couldn't get away, or he couldn't move because of the traffic jam.
It didn't matter to Zhong You waiting, but Qian Dao's violent temper obviously couldn't sit still, "Xiao Zhou, which investor did you contact?"
"But the boss of Golden Century Real Estate is our sponsor who accounts for the largest share of funds this time."
Director Qian slammed the tissue in his hand on the dining table, "How can you invite him?"
The voice of the conversation in the private room suddenly cooled down, and everyone's eyes turned to the three of them.Zhong You waved his hands at the other two investors and the actors, "It's okay, it's okay, Director Qian didn't catch it. Let's drink some tea first, and eat some melons and fruits first. We'll start the banquet after a while."
He tugged at Qian Dao's clothes in private, and said in a low voice, "What's wrong with you? Why are you losing your temper?"
Director Qian also realized that his reaction was too big, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "Xiaoyu, you don't know, that real estate boss has a bad reputation."
Producer Zhou was not intimidated by Director Qian, and approached him with a smile on his face, "Don't worry about it, those are just rumors. Besides, even if it's true, everyone gets what they want. No wonder others, entertainment Don't you understand the circle thing?"
Director Qian glanced at him coolly, and said coldly, "I'd rather not have a sponsor than cooperate with someone with a bad reputation."
"Oh, Director Qian, who still has trouble with Qian?"
Zhong You frowned, Qian Dao always valued profit and loss, how bad is the reputation of a person who can make Qian Dao repel so much?
Everyone in the room exchanged greetings in twos and threes, waiting for the absent person. Just as Director Qian asked Producer Zhou to call back and change investors, scattered footsteps gradually approached.
Immediately, the door of the private room was opened, and two men in plaid shirts were holding the door, one left and one right.A middle-aged man in a gold sequined suit walked in slowly, the first thing Zhong You saw was a protruding beer belly, and then a human face.
"I'm sorry, everyone, I've been delayed. I'll punish you three times in a row to make amends." The middle-aged man's smoky voice sounded a little harsh.
Producer Zhou hurriedly got up to meet him, and held the middle-aged man's hand, "Mr. Yang, you are here. As long as you can come, it will be worthwhile for us to wait."
"Brother Zhou is still very interesting. How can I not support the crew you lead?"
"You're welcome." Producer Zhou led Mr. Yang inside, pointed to Director Qian and Zhong You, "Let me introduce, this is Director Qian, the director of our "Underworld"."
Mr. Yang raised his hand and made a salute gesture, "Hey, Director Qian is good."
"Hello, Mr. Yang." Everyone was in front of him, and Director Qian coaxed him back without waiting. After all, he was still the president of the real estate group, so he couldn't offend him casually.
"This is the queen screenwriter of our B entertainment company. People call him big fish, and his colleagues will also call him little fish."
Mr. Yang's gaze fell on Zhong You's face, and Zhong You instantly felt uneasy being skipped by something strange, as if spider silk stuck to his skin.
"Screenwriter Xiaoyu, hello." Mr. Yang stretched out his hand to Zhong You.
Zhong You shook his hand back politely, "Hello." He was keenly aware that the other party was rubbing gently on the side of his fingers, and withdrew his hand abruptly.
Mr. Yang didn't get angry because of Zhong You's actions, he passed Producer Zhou and sat on the chair next to Zhong You, "Brother Zhou, don't you mind if I change places with you?"
"I don't mind, I don't mind. You are a guest, so I will naturally listen to you." Producer Zhou then introduced all the other people sitting next to Mr. Yang, focusing on introducing the male lead and supporting male of "Underworld".
Producer Zhou gave the leading actor to the chair on the other side of Mr. Yang, while he hid behind Director Qian.During the banquet, Producer Zhou always took the opportunity to talk to Director Qian, and Director Qian didn't even want to give him a supercilious glance.
Zhong You has been engrossed in eating his own food, letting Producer Zhou deal with Mr. Yang and the other two investors, and occasionally inserting a sentence or two.Every time Mr. Yang brought the topic to him, Director Qian would take the initiative to chat with Mr. Yang.
Although the topic was taken away, Zhong You couldn't ignore the sight around him after all. The only thing to blame was that the sight was too explicit.No one had ever dared to look at him like this, so he couldn't understand the meaning of it for a while.
"Doesn't Xiaoyu often attend this kind of dinner on weekdays? He looks a little reserved and doesn't like to talk." Mr. Yang said, drinking a glass of red wine with his head up, and leaning towards Zhong You intentionally or unintentionally.
"We Xiaoyu are usually only responsible for the script part, and don't need to talk a lot." Director Qian took the initiative to refill Mr. Yang.
"How about this, I offer a toast to screenwriter Xiaoyu. It's not easy to write a script. To present such a good work, how much work has to be done behind the scenes, don't you think?"
Seeing that he couldn't escape, Zhong You hurriedly removed his quilt, "Sorry, I don't know how to drink."
"Oh, it's just a glass of wine." Mr. Yang wanted to take the wine bottle from Director Qian, but Director Qian kept holding it in his hand and refused to hand it over. How about a bone to drink with you?"
"You're joking. I don't dare to be with you." Mr. Yang smiled happily.
Producer Zhou kept winking at the male number one from behind, and the male number one picked up some dishes and put them in Mr. Yang's bowl, "Mr. Yang, try this, it's the signature golden fish of this restaurant."
Only then did Mr. Yang see that there was someone beside him. After all, he was the number one male. He was definitely good looking, handsome in appearance, and courteous to others. Mr. Yang seemed to be very useful.
But before his attention shifted for a while, Mr. Yang pointed his finger at Zhong You again, "Xiaoyu, let me call you like that. I heard from Brother Zhou that you have many representative works, and I also have TV series that you have filmed before." I've seen it, it's indeed a masterpiece. At such a young age, I have such talent, and I still..." He tilted his head so that he could better see Zhong You's face. No one behind the scenes of other crews can compare with you."
Now Zhong You understood why Director Qian strongly opposed the joining of Mr. Yang from Real Estate.Ever since Mr. Yang entered the door, he felt uncomfortable all over.Every cell is clamoring for this old guy to roll as far as he can.
"You're flattering, there are many people who are more talented than me, and there are many people who are better than me." Zhong You's face was sullen, and he didn't hide his disgust at all.
"You're still so humble, I like humble young people, they have a bright future, and their future is boundless." Mr. Yang seemed to have not understood Zhong You's expression, and remained the same, "But sometimes, how do you go on the road ahead? , It depends on whether you can meet a nobleman."
"According to Mr. Yang's words, we Xiaoyu have met a noble person long ago, otherwise why would we sit here?" Director Qian took advantage of the time to give Mr. Yang a hand, and said with a smile on his face.
Zhong You continued to remain silent, he really didn't want to talk to this guy, he held down the phone in his pocket, as long as he made a call, Xiao Chenzi's bodyguard team would rush over and throw out the unsightly things, but he held back , if you do this, Xiao Chenzi will know the news immediately, and if you don't keep it, you will miss the important meeting.
Before leaving, he swore that nothing would happen.He is a masculine man, he must do what he says, isn't it just a meal, even if there is a feces / gnat / mantis in front of him, he still eats his own meal, let the feces / gnat / mantis bark by itself.
"Director Qian is right. I should be fined. I drink it myself."
Producer Zhou saw that the atmosphere of the scene had fallen into a slump several times, and quickly jumped out to warm up the scene, "Hey, Mr. Yang, don't just patronize drinking, eat vegetables, Dapeng, hurry up and get some food for Mr. Mr. Yang serves wine. For the others, I’ll pour you wine, let’s not take this as an outsider, just treat it as your own home, eat and drink openly, let’s have a happy cooperation!"
"Brother Zhou is right, we have a happy cooperation." Mr. Yang took the goblet and touched Zhong You's quilt by himself, "It doesn't matter if Xiaoyu doesn't drink, we clink glasses as if you have drunk it, hahaha, Brother, let me be considerate."
This thoughtfulness was unbearable to him, coupled with the fact that the other party blinked at him, a chill swept over Zhong You's body, and for the first time he felt that it was a sin for someone to blink, it was too greasy, as oily as the other party's hair on the edge of the Mediterranean Sea.
Although Director Qian disliked Mr. Yang in various ways, he always insisted on gags, and finally made it to the end of the dinner. After sending this great god away, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Xiaoyu, since the investor's matter is a foregone conclusion, we can only do this first. From now on, you listen to my news, as long as there are activities that require the presence of investors, you don't participate." Director Qian tensed his face and considered He said, "Have you heard of the uproar about Jane committing suicide two years ago?"
Zhong You shook his head in a daze, he was so good at all kinds of entertainment circles, he kept his ears to the outside world, and only focused on the script. "Is it related to Mr. Yang?"
