Drunken Master

Before a game of chess entered the situation of besieging the city and annihilating the enemy, the information on the mobile phone exploded, roaring in Zhuang Xiao's trouser pocket, as if he was about to bomb someone's tower.

Pei Yan blew up on WeChat. Mr. Yan agreed two days ago that if the box office exceeds the guaranteed 25 million, he will take 75% of it, and the remaining 15% will belong to the producer. If it can exceed 15 billion, he will take [-]% The rest are from our producers.Has his family repented?

Zhuang Xiao still held a "car" in his hand and did not rush out. He left the seat and walked to the side, leaning against the railing of the overpass to answer the phone.

Pei Yan was full of complaints for a whole morning, and finally the volcano erupted: "Zhuang Xiao, now I know why Mr. Yan agreed so happily, do you know why?——Because his words are useless at all! Their group It's not like he made the decision in the company and what he said counts, what the hell, their vice president only counts when he nods and signs!

"I can't deal with people who have drunk foreign ink. If I haven't drunk any ink, I can't talk... I actually want to talk to Mr. Yan. He is easier to talk to."

Zhuang Xiao didn't know who the vice president was, but he heard Pei Yan yelling at him sentence by sentence on the phone.

Pei Yan didn't say anything to Zhuang Xiao on the spot, thinking that public and private should be clearly distinguished.

In this world, Liang Youhui is not the only scumbag with a gay radar on top of his head, and a gay antenna on top of his head.He also likes men by nature, and he is very sensitive in this regard.

As for the deputy who came over today, he raised his eyelids and saw the other party for the first time, and he was amazing.

After a second glance, it became clear. There were rumors in the circle that Mr. Dao had a very powerful vixen by his side, who could break a steel bar into Gui Faxiang marijuana flowers. As expected, the rumors were true.

"But we can't bypass this person." Pei Yan said, "Boding Group directly acquired another local entertainment and culture company the year before last, which is the company of Jane's. The team is full of experienced old people. I took a look, and the operator of the initial acquisition was Mr. Ling, and in the later planning and operation, Mr. Ling has been investing in film and television entertainment, and he is the leader."

Pei Yan was going crazy this morning, and wanted to pinch someone, wanted to pinch Zhuang Xiao: "Zhuang Xiao, Mr. Yan doesn't care about this, he just likes you and wants to spend money to praise you! Besides, Besides, he doesn't care about anything else, the planning and distribution of film and television is done by Vice President Ling—what do you want me to do?"

"What does it mean to have a crush on me... What are you talking about?" Zhuang Xiao frowned, and those words sounded very twisted.

Pei Yante wanted to complain, but that was actually the case.

The two sides eventually stalemate on the proportion of shares.The producers want to get 75% of the proceeds after the box office is deducted from exorbitant taxes, or even higher.But the issuer insisted on taking at least one-third, which is 33%.

Pei Yan said: "If you want to eat 33%, then I might as well ask Jiahuang to do it. Mr. Zhang only needs [-]%."

Vice President Ling who sat across from him was called Ling He. Needless to say, he was very shrewd and tough, and he would fight for every inch of land. us?"

Ling He said: "I spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy your film, and the risk of the project will be passed on to our company. We are the ones who are hard to do. Once the box office fails to sell [-] million yuan, we will lose money and have no profit. Mr. Pei, you You earn a lot of money, and if the box office loses, you can still take a sum of real money from me... You are really earning real money."

Pei Yan immediately asked the other party, will our film be compensated?

He, Zhuang Xiao, and even Xing Rong, whoever is pulled out alone, can play the leading role in a movie.The three male lead actors get together, so the box office is rushing to the street?

"My surname is Pei, but I never trade at a loss." Pei Yan drank another can of beer, and there was already a row of empty soda cans in front of him, holding it lightly, "Why do you say I want to pay?"

"I also want to hear how you make money." Ling He said.

Ling He neither smoked nor touched the beer and wine in front of him, so he just sat upright: "The market is very difficult to do now, and the policy lord is changing his face all the time. The good times of guaranteeing a guaranteed profit are over. Mr. Pei, you are just sullen. Acting in your movie, if you don’t do planning and distribution, it’s better for me to understand. In the current market, apart from those boring comedy dramas and unrefined popcorn movies, which of the several mainstream literary movies from the end of last year to this year has made money? Now it’s almost It means that you must pay for the bottom line. The more so-called films with content, connotation, family and country background, and selling feelings in front of the audience, the more you will pay! Mr. Pei thinks, what kind of film do you shoot? What kind of film do you sell? Is it funny, popcorn, or selling feelings?..."

Pei Yan was speechless to this sentence, obviously.

"Privately, I respect you and Mr. Zhuang very much. You are putting your heart and soul into making good movies." Ling He continued, "But I'm afraid that you are all focused on selling your thoughts and feelings. The Republic of China, the Anti-Japanese War, the KMT and the Communist Party Killing, tragic ending, how many audiences do you think are willing to buy your account?...Young children don't like to watch sad movies with the background of the Republic of China, and older audiences don't recognize these faces, they only recognize those old actors Gu, where is your target audience, and how can the box office increase?

"'Guaranteed bottom', in fact, it guarantees the bottoms of your filmmakers, not the bottoms of our businessmen. Mr. Yan is indeed a good man..." Ling He lowered his eyes and couldn't help laughing, "He is with you guys. Those who talk about loyalty in the world and the feelings of family and country all say that he is like that, and his company will go bankrupt within two years, and his underwear will be lost."

"..."

This guy has such a nice smile, and his speech is really unpleasant, every sentence is choking and hurting others.

Pei Yan really wanted to snatch the cigarette butt from the producer's mouth and take a couple of puffs by herself.

He reached for the can of beer on the table, but his hand was pressed, and he didn't pick it up.

The person who pressed the back of his hand with a palm looked at him with a delicate light in his green eyes: "I'm sorry, Mr. Pei, I'm just in business. Since you want to sign this gambling agreement, you have to let go of the gambling capital." Only people who see the temptation of high dividends are willing to jump into this fire pit-we want 33%.

"If you can't accept it, go back and find the 40%."

……

Pei Yan was furious.

Da Mahou has already been offended, Zhang Shaochi's face was slapped on the phone, he is really desperate, he has no face to go back and beg his second uncle, and he is unwilling to bow his head and admit defeat to any party.But in front of this matter is particularly not reconciled.

He also has a temper.

He stared at the beautiful man sitting across from him, and gave him a compliment for nothing: "Ling He, if you insist on taking more, you can come into our crew for a few scenes and just show your face. It would be even better if you showed your shoulders, if you give the movie a boost, the box office might explode, maybe it can exceed a billion!... The extra money you get is my salary for you, okay?"

With this sentence, he probably offended Vice President Ling.

Ling He's face darkened, because he was poked into some absolutely taboo memories, got up and left, and replied: "If you sell you, you won't be able to pay my appearance fee."

Pei Yan almost bit off her tongue on the spot, and slapped her face when Ling He turned around and walked away in anger.

He just couldn't hold back his mouth, as if he would suffer a loss if he didn't stab him, and offended another one.However, today this person is not his second uncle or third uncle, if he offended him once, he might not have a second chance.

He said that because the other party was really good-looking.

Ling He has a mixed race at first glance, and his temper is also arrogant. His looks and body are just as charming as the big boss Jinwu Zangjiao. In the film and television industry, he can definitely be packaged as an idol-level star, and his popularity is overwhelming.

Pei Yan also admitted that the other party was good-looking.It's a pity that he doesn't have such a stunning face himself, and it's useless to go back and climb the second uncle's bed now.Zhang Shaochi didn't like his rough and rough stuff.Of course, with the disobedience and insubordination all over his body, he was doomed not to be able to climb onto the boss's bed, and he had to fall under the bed with his head.

The negotiation was so frustrating that it almost collapsed.

There was no collapse on the spot, because the two who were playing a game of chess on the top of the bridge were still calm.When Zhuang Xiao went back, he drove across the Chuhe-Han border, and showed Yan Xiaodao all the complaints that Pei Yan had posted on WeChat, just as a joke.

Yan Xiaodao glanced at those, "cough--", covered his forehead and shook his head, and even said, "I'm sorry, I'm not good at discipline" "I'm not very good at dealing with these things, usually I don't care about him, everything It's all up to him, I'm sorry, Ah Xiao."

Zhuang Xiao smiled and said, "Mr. Pei has a hot temper and is not very good at talking. Please forgive him."

Yan Xiaodao waved his hand and said "cough" again.

I understand.

The two of them didn't say anything more. For this kind of thing, if you don't talk to the other party about the price, you lose face, so you continue to kill chess.This game of chess was also a mess, inextricably linked.The two stinky chess baskets are hopeless, all the chariots, horses, artillery, and elephants have been disarmed and killed. In the end, there are only two bare commanders and a few stragglers, still pretending to shout and kill. No one can attack the opponent's city, which is really ridiculous ...

Afterwards, Mr. Yan invited a few of them to dinner, and went to a private club by the sea to have fun and chat at night.

This person is still willing to spend money, and is willing to lose time, very sincere.

The two sides are still thinking about cooperation.

Pei Yan was in the corner of the sofa, catching up with the dim light, and whispered to Zhuang Xiao: "As for Baoding Group, they are cooperating with the city to develop a project as big as the film and television city. What are old stations, banks, theater buildings, and former residences of celebrities used for? Is he planning to surround them and sell a few tickets!"

"Calm down, don't rush to get angry." Zhuang Xiao whispered.

"I can't calm down," Pei Yan felt aggrieved after eating a meal, "Master Dao admires you so much, and is so generous...you just work harder and hook up, if you have the ability, just hold it down tonight He let him take out the money, okay?"

The sourness is sour, Pei Yan has suffered a lot of setbacks these days, and feels uncomfortable.

Zhuang Xiao sighed softly, and patted Pei Yan's knee.

……

At the club that night, Ling He showed his face, drank a glass of wine and left. He was very airy, so he didn't sit with him.

Mr. Yan went out at least three times halfway, and consulted with his deputy Mr. Ling, and he went to plead for mercy.After Yan Xiaodao came back, he patted Zhuang Xiao on the shoulder and whispered, "We are 28%, you are 72%, is this acceptable?"

Zhuang Xiao looked at Pei Yan, and Pei Yan said: "Is there any room for us not to accept and bargain? Otherwise, you will know the truth?"

Yan Xiaodao looked at Pei Yan: "I still don't trust you two's ability to attract box office."

Pei Yan replied: "How can you rest assured?"

He was wearing a shirt with the front open, and he simply pulled the shirt off his shoulders, revealing a fierce tattoo on his back muscles.It's just Lian Jiazi, how much ability do you have, why don't you give it a try?

Yan Xiaodao glanced at him, smiled, and took off his own shirt without saying a word.

Pei Yan froze for a moment...

Under the layer of close-fitting vest, there is also a large tattoo.Cyan red, the gang's handwriting, Shangshanhu's embroidery.It means, don't do this with me. It's been a long time since I've been out and about. What are young people bragging about?

Zhuang Xiao pushed Pei Yan to the other side of the sofa, go to the other side quickly, children don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth.

As a result, the private room became a temporary arena that night.

Mr. Yan stripped off his shirt, threw away the girdle and the blade hidden inside, pointed back at Zhuang Xiao, and said: "Ah Xiao, if you can beat me tonight, I will let you get seven points." A profit of five. If I win, you let us get [-]%, is it fair?"

"Can you beat me without a knife?" Zhuang Xiao replied flatly, "You should keep the knife in your arms."

Both of them were yelling at each other.Yan Xiaodao winked at Zhuang Xiao: You must be able to win, right?

Zhuang Xiao winked back: How can I beat you?If I beat you to the ground today, the cooperation will be really bad. The vice president of your family has to turn his back on him and tear up who?

Before the people around could react, the tea table between the two sofas flew out first, and it didn't stop until it hit the wall of the doorway.The two figures are very vigorous, with extremely fast speed, tossing and turning in the dimly lit room with flickering lights, their fists punching their flesh, and their muscles colliding violently.

The fight was pretty good, and there wasn't any tense atmosphere at all, because both sides were racking their brains to figure out how to lose.The slap is slashed out, and the posture is very chic, which is very interesting for acting. It is like performing a duel in front of the camera with a wire rope, but at the moment when he almost slashed the opponent's vitals, he immediately stopped the momentum and let himself fly out.He rolled on the spot, but was caught by the other party and continued.

With flesh and flesh close together, Zhuang Xiao grabbed the opponent's elbow with a twisted stance, and watched as the opponent smashed his collarbone with a swung palm!He leaned back to dodge and cut the opponent's ribs, Yan Xiaodao stepped back and swept his legs...

One is the opening and closing of traditional routines, and the other is the wild way of street melee.

It's really exciting to break out in a hot sweat.

Zhuang Xiao made a fool of himself and fell backwards, leaning on the glass coffee table with one hand and then jumped up.Yan Xiaodao grabbed his calf and twisted him 720 degrees in the air.

Zhuang Xiao landed on the ground, grabbed the opponent's shoulder, fell to the ground with one step, then fell over his shoulder, turned over and pinned him down.The movement is smooth and done in one go.

Pei Yan, who had been hanging his heart and throat, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and leaned back on the sofa.

It was him, Brother Xiao, who was so powerful that he overwhelmed him.

Then I heard Zhuang Xiao say: "I lost, I lost first."

Zhuang Xiao gestured towards the position of his throat and clavicle: "If you had held the knife between your fingers at that time, I would have died immediately, and I would have given a fart?"

"The hero has shown mercy to my subordinates, my ribs are almost broken haha!" Yan Xiaodao smiled, bent at [-] degrees to give Zhuang Xiao a bow, then turned around and said to the others, "My bones are hurting secretly, can I help you?" Tell you!"

Zhuang Xiao clasped his fists and said that Master Dao had won him.

Later, Ling He poked his head into the private room for a glance, and rolled his eyes.

After a while, he opened the door again and came in, threw a hot compress bag over his face, threw it to Mr. Yan, and left without saying a word.Yan Xiaodao hurriedly took it, smiled at the person, stuffed the hot medicine bag into his shirt, and quietly applied it to his ribs...

Later, the producer quietly told Pei Yan that the vice president surnamed Ling agreed and was willing to negotiate according to the ratio we mentioned, so sign it quickly to save night long dreams.

The matter was resolved too smoothly, and the contract figures were settled, which made Pei Yan feel unbelievable.

The fight between Zhuang Xiao and Yan Xiaodao was obviously just for fun, and neither of them really fought.It was embarrassing enough for the two of them to spout a bunch of fluffy compliments at each other, wishing to flatter each other to the sky.

Later, Pei Yan heard his assistant gossip with him, and in the corridor outside the private room, he saw Yan always talking to Vice President Ling like this.

Mr. Yan and Mr. Ling stood by the corridor, staring at each other half-smiling, what's the matter.

Yan Xiaodao said: "What I watch is a movie, I don't come to see people."

Ling He said: "I've never seen you spend money, treat guests, or book a movie to see someone else's movie. After watching it, you have to spend money to vote for another movie-you are watching a movie?"

Yan Xiaodao smiled frankly: "I never chased stars when I was a child, and I just admire such an actor. He is a real hero of the rivers and lakes. I'm so fake! I want to imitate him, but I can't imitate him." .”

Ling He said: "So you have to vote for the money? Do you have to sign the cooperation? They are making a steady profit, and we are betting that the movie starring the two will be a big hit at the box office."

Yan Xiaodao nodded: "I believe that the box office of those two people will explode."

The two bowed their heads and talked for a long time, Yan Xiaodao showed three fingers and gestured: three.

Ling He shook his head and gestured: Six.

Yan Xiaodao frowned: Three.

Ling He wouldn't budge an inch: six.

In the end, Mr. Yan compromised and cursed in a low voice: Six is ​​six, I'm still afraid of you?

The two of them tugged their wrists lightly in the dimly lit part of the corridor, and they also reached a friendly agreement in private, shaking hands and making peace.

Therefore, between people in this world, there will always be one thing and one thing.

Vice President Ling stretched out his hand easily, and gestured a "six", in a daze to give the boss of their group an unspoken rule.

……
