Chapter 299 [Entertainment]

Hui Lin, who had lowered her head and didn't dare to vent her anger because she entered a strange place, almost fainted when she heard that she was Yang Chen's girlfriend. .

Yang Chen unceremoniously pushed Zhao Teng's head with one hand, "How did you get your eyes, do I look like an old cow eating young grass?"

"Director, you're not old," Zhao Teng said aggrievedly, clutching his aching forehead.

"This is my cousin, she has excellent qualifications. After I discussed with Mr. Lin, I will let her come to our company to receive professional vocal and dance training, and I will let you arrange special lectures," Yang Chen said.

Only then did Zhao Teng come to his senses, and looked Hui Lin up and down. The girl does have the capital to become a big star. Since Lin Ruoxi thinks it's okay, there must be something extraordinary, so he said directly: "No problem, those musicians we hired Both the choreographer and the choreographer are masters, and now I am worried that there will be no outstanding students."

The next thing is much easier, Yang Chen asked Hui Lin to follow Zhao Teng to accept the arrangement, and go directly to Yulei Entertainment's own recording studio and dance classroom to accept the assessment, and judge which level to start teaching based on the specific strength.

It is also impossible for Yang Chen to stay with Hui Lin all the time, so he said to Hui Lin: "When you finish practicing, whenever you want to go back, just call me."

Hui Lin said in embarrassment: "I... can I call my sister?"

Yang Chen felt depressed for a while, "Is that why I don't invite you? Are you going to ask your sister to send you back on the first day?"

"No... I just..."

"Okay, okay, whatever you want," Yang Chen didn't want to listen to the reasons, knowing that this girl has a thin skin, and it would be more comfortable to be with Lin Ruoxi who is also a woman.

Hui Lin really didn't dare to be with Yang Chen for a long time, especially when Zhao Teng said "female friend", the more shy and scared she felt, she felt that she and Yang Chen were a couple, so I'm sorry for Lin Ruoxi .

As for what Yang Chen said about having an affair and getting a divorce, in Hui Lin's view, that is a very distant thing, and she is not too sure.

Yang Chen returned to the office, just about to sit down and turn on the computer to play games, but unexpectedly, Wang Jie knocked on the door and walked in.

Wang Jie, who was holding a stack of documents in his hand, asked a little embarrassedly: "Director, are you free at noon?"

Yang Chen shook his head, "It's okay, what's wrong?"

Wang Jie said in embarrassment: "There is a social gathering at noon, and it is reasonable for me to take the driver and assistant to go, but today there is an emergency meeting in Yu Lei's headquarters, so I want to ask the director to go for me, I don't know if it is possible... ..."

entertainment? Yang Chen scratched his head. To be honest, he didn't like making gods very much. Wang Jie also knew about this kind of thing, so he looked at him helplessly and pitifully.

Yang Chen asked: "Who is the other party?"

As soon as Wang Jie heard that there was something going on, she immediately came to her senses, "It's a recently well-known up-and-coming director named Huang Hai from Shandong. He is well-known. This time he took the initiative to approach our company, hoping that we would invest in the production of a small-scale film of about 5 million yuan, probably because of our fame, and other big companies have no place for him.”

"So, this is him inviting us to talk, right?" Yang Chen asked.

"It can be said that we negotiate with each other on an equal footing. After all, he has a certain strength, and he doesn't necessarily have to look for us. It's just that our company has just started, and many new directors want to cooperate with us. After all, if the first film is successful, we can It is very important to be the head director of our company according to seniority in entertainment companies." Wang Jie explained.

Yang Chen probably understands that the newly established Yulei Entertainment Company is the sweet spot in the eyes of rookie directors and actors. Those who have not been able to get high treatment in other established big companies all want to come to Yulei to win the "Founding Hero" "Treatment.

"Originally, I wanted to read his script and see how his character and professional ethics are. If his character and strength are all right, I will sign a contract with him. But the emergency meeting of the head office is very important. , and I have been responsible for those tasks, so I thought of you, the director. After all, you were the director who negotiated with Mu Yun when he went to Hong Kong. Such a job should be very easy for the director.” Wang Jie also praised Yang Chen.

Everyone likes to hear good things. Even though he didn't give Yang Chen any good memories that time in Hong Kong, Yang Chen still softened his ears. After thinking about it, he said, "Put down the information, and I'll be there at noon."

Wang Jie heaved a sigh of relief. If Yang Chen didn't agree, she really didn't know who to call. After all, the company was newly established and there were not enough capable people.

After Wang Jie left, Yang Chen picked up the information and looked at the director Huang Hai's resume, as well as his planned works this time. In the end, I saw that the place agreed at noon was an entertainment club called "Xiangye" that was well-known in Zhonghai.

Seeing this location, Yang Chen frowned. If I remember correctly, this place is near the bar street. It is said to be an entertainment club, but to put it bluntly, it is also a place of sound and beauty. Many shady services appear there It is estimated that Wang Jie's reluctance to go also includes such reasons, but she can't turn down such a job just because the place doesn't like making gods, so she gave Yang Chen the excuse of the head office meeting. After all, it is not easy for a man to go to such an occasion to cause problems.

At noon, Yang Chen drove to the Fragrant Coconut Club by himself. This is a store with a southern island style. Although it is already winter, the two welcoming ladies at the entrance are still holding their white arms. The big white tuǐ is just wrapped in a thicker vest outside the thin clothes.

After entering the interior of the clubhouse, there is a corridor decorated in warm colors and two rows of boxes in both directions.

After Yang Chen reported the number of the agreed box, he followed the waitress and walked around two corners before arriving at the agreed place.

Opening the door, there are three floor-to-ceiling craft lamps in the huge room. The light is neither bright nor dark. There is red sand, gray carpet, and a music video is playing on the large LCD TV. I know what song is sung, it should be Korean dance music.

Three figures who had been sitting on the sofa stood up immediately, a middle-tall man with a beard in his thirties was the director Huang Hai, there was also a middle-aged short man with a slightly bald head and a good-looking man, A woman with heavy makeup.

"Welcome Director Yang, I'm really flattered, I didn't expect the director to come here in person." Huang Hai extended his hand enthusiastically, walked forward and shook Yang Chen vigorously.

Yang Chen knew that Wang Jie deliberately said "I want to come on my own initiative", and this was also a means to make Huang Hai feel respected.

"Director Huang, you're welcome, since everyone wants to cooperate, of course we must show sincerity," Yang Chen said lightly.

Huang Hai repeatedly said yes, and introduced to Yang Chen, "This is the producer I work with, Luo Changan, this lady is my wife and a second-tier actress in the industry, Ellie, but the reason is that she is not well-known. , Director Yang probably has never heard of it."

Yang Chen knew it in his heart, he probably bought Huang Hai when he bought the lottery ticket back then, and hoped to marry Huang Hai's young actor if he could be successful, but now Huang Hai really has some promise, so he became the director's wife.

After greeting Luo Changan and Ellie, Yang Chen and the three of them sat down together. The waiter brought some pastries and wine, and the British afternoon tea-style three-tier dessert, which was an ingenious hospitality.

"Director Yang, don't mind. I think it's a bit extravagant and inefficient to set up a large table of meals in the traditional way to talk about the movie. There are only four of us, so I chose to talk about things here. I hope that Director Yang will Understood," Huang Hai explained with a smile.

Such rhetoric, in anyone's ears, will be a good reason, not only makes people feel that he is efficient, but also makes people feel that this person is more real and more reliable.

Yang Chen smiled irrefutably, "Director Huang, you're welcome, and I'm more casual, let's talk about business."

"Okay, okay, the director is quick to talk, but after all, we always have to have a drink when we meet for the first time, otherwise it will be too rude." Huang Hai greeted Ellie who was sitting by the side with a smile, "Ailie, go open the wine, Pour us."

Ai Li responded with a charming voice, vaguely gave Yang Chen a small wink, and ran to the side to open wine.

Luo Changan took out the planning plan of the new movie and the general outline of the movie from the file folder, put it in Yang Chen's hands, and said with a flattering smile: "Director Yang, I guarantee with more than 20 years of experience in the industry that this movie will definitely be a hit. As long as the investment is sufficient and results are achieved, it is not difficult to win a Golden Statue or Golden Horse Award."

Yang Chen picked up the movie plan and took a look. It was a low-cost comedy action movie, but it was also a popular funny movie nowadays, spreading a little philosophy of life.

However, Yang Chen took a closer look at the estimated cost, and found that it was different from the information Wang Jie gave him. The cost turned out to be 8 million, which was 3 million higher.

"Director Huang, in the proposal that our company manager showed me, the budget of this movie is only five million, why did it suddenly increase by three million?" Yang Chen stared into Huang Hai's eyes, not letting go of a single detail.
