Chapter 1248 The Premise of Cooperation
Ning Hao has a lot of shrewdness of his own.
He has never disclosed to Xie Wei his intention to let Liu Ye play the male lead of "Flying Tigers" on the phone. His biggest worry is to leak the news in advance. If the other party's brokerage company seizes this point and refuses to let them go, then it will be dealt with. It's a little troublesome, and he doesn't know Liu Ye's character and personality. Talking about this kind of thing directly on the phone, it's better to chat a few words in person, and then find a suitable opportunity to speak after having a certain judgment about him.
Whether it is for Xie Hao or Liu Ye himself, even if there is only a chance to get a role in this movie with a certain role, it is already a great thing for them, and no one dares to expect it. I have the opportunity to play the leading role in such an unprecedented production.
At this time, the weather in Yanjing was still very cold, but Liu Ye deliberately wore a thin suit in order to appear formal. The suit made him look extraordinarily energetic, but Xie Wei said with some worry: "You wear so little, It will definitely be cold when you go out later, why don't you buy a down jacket outside!"
"No, no." Liu Ye waved his hands seriously, looked at himself in the mirror, straightened his collar, and said very seriously: "Actors must have the professional quality of actors, and as long as the director needs them, they can wear cotton-padded jackets in dog days. , You can wear shorts for three or nine days, and it's ridiculous to wear a down jacket over a suit."
Xie Yu said: "It's not for you to audition, or to film, or to go out for a meal. It's not a problem if you wear more clothes."
Liu Ye shook his head and said, "With such a golden opportunity, there must be no mistakes. I'll wear this, it's fine."
Xie Wei couldn't resist him, so she nodded.
Ning Hao drove the GL8 provided by the company and arrived at the gate of Liu Ye's rental community on time. Because Liu Ye was afraid of making Ning Hao wait for him, he and Xie Hao waited on the side of the road ahead of time, blowing in the cold wind. After more than ten minutes, Liu Ye was completely frozen.
After stopping the car in front of the two, Ning Hao lowered the co-pilot's window and said to the two, "Hello Liu Ye, Xie Wei, I'm Ning Hao."
Before that, Liu Ye and Xie Hao basically had no idea about Ning Hao's appearance. When they met Ning Hao, Liu Ye was slightly taken aback. He felt that this old man's image, dress, and the way he was sitting in the car at this time, no matter how he looked at it. Like a black car driver.
However, Liu Ye quickly came back to his senses, nodded to Ning Hao very politely, and said respectfully, "Hello, Brother Hao!"
Xie Hao also bowed and greeted: "Hello, Brother Hao!"
Ning Hao didn't expect Liu Ye, the Golden Horse Award winner, to be as polite as a college student who hasn't graduated yet, so he waved his hand and smiled,
Said: "What brother Hao is not brother Hao, just call me Haozi."
After finishing speaking, Ning Hao said hurriedly: "Oh, it's very cold, you two quickly get in the car and sit in the back seat."
"Okay, thank you Brother Hao." Liu Ye said, and stretched out his hand to open the rear door of the GL8. Because it was a little hard to sit inside, he said to Xie Wei, "I'll sit in it."
After saying that, he bent down and got into the car, sat in the back seat, and then stretched out his hand to gently pull Xie Wei in, not forgetting to lean over to Xie Wei's right side and push and pull the GL8 The door is closed.
Liu Ye's little thoughtfulness was seen by Ning Hao through the rearview mirror of the car, and he thought to himself, this Liu Ye is really a careful person. In most cases, careful people are more careful in doing things, because At least the attitude is much more than the average person.
Ning Hao drove the car on the road, and said in a very easy-going tone, "It's really cold today, let's just eat mutton stew. I know there is an old Yanjing mutton stew. It tastes great, and it tastes very warm."
Liu Ye hurriedly said: "Thank you, Brother Hao, you can arrange it, both of us can do it."
Ning Hao asked with a smile, "You don't have any taboos, right?"
Liu Ye said, "No, neither of us are picky."
Xie Hao also smiled and said, "Yeah, Brother Hao, I actually like mutton very much."
"That's fine, I'll call and ask them to reserve a private room for me anyway, let's chat while eating..."
...
In a mutton hotpot restaurant in Dongcheng, Ning Hao ordered a large table of dishes and greeted Liu Ye to drink some liquor.
Liu Ye agreed without hesitation, but asked worriedly, "Brother Hao, you are driving, isn't it safe to drink?"
Ning Hao waved his hand: "Hey, just park here and take a taxi back. I'll take a taxi and take you back first."
Liu Ye hurriedly said, "Don't be so troublesome, we'll just go back by ourselves later."
Ning Hao smiled and said, "You're welcome, I live not far from your place, so I just happened to be on the way."
When Liu Ye heard this, he was no longer polite. The waiter brought a very ordinary bottle of Niulanshan Erguotou, filled each of them with a glass, and brought Xie Wei a bottle of Sprite.
Ning Hao picked up his wine glass and said to the two of them, "It's the first time I'm sitting with you two for dinner, come here, I'll give you a toast."
Liu Ye was flattered and said, "Brother Hao, you are too polite, it should be the two of us who respect you."
Ning Hao waved his hand: "What are you, you, we are not too different in age, don't make it look like two generations."
After speaking, Ning Hao raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's go first, just do whatever you want!"
Liu Ye's drinker is good, and he's sincere. Although it's good to be casual, he's also afraid that it's rude to drink too much. Three, two or three glasses are forced to go down a third of the time. Ning Hao's drinker is not bad for him, while drinking , while looking at it out of the corner of the eye, he took a sip, the glass was flat, and it was almost the same as the wine in Liu Ye's glass.
In fact, according to the rules of the entertainment industry, Liu Ye's celebrity status is much higher than that of Ning Hao now. Ning Hao is indeed not well-known, "Crazy Stone" has not been released, and Liu Ye is now the title of actor. , and the remuneration is not low. It is estimated that when the current TV series is completely popular, the remuneration will be able to rank among the first-tier domestic players, so he really doesn't need to be so polite to Ning Hao.
However, although Ning Hao himself is hanging on the wire, he has a very close relationship with Li Mu directly behind his back. It can be said that he is Li Mu's spokesperson in the film and television industry, and Li Mu really wants to talk about celebrity status, saying that his celebrity status is higher than that of national stars. It's not an exaggeration to be taller, so because of his close relationship with Li Mu, looking at the entire entertainment industry, even a big brother in the industry, no matter how qualified and capable, will be polite to Ning Hao, and Liu Ye naturally knows that On this level, from the very first meeting until now, they have always treated Ning Hao with a respectful attitude.
After a glass of wine, Ning Hao talked about the business and said with a smile: "Today, I invite you two to come out to meet. In fact, I have already told you the main purpose on the phone. We are now preparing a film called "Flying Tiger". "Team" movie, the casting of Chinese actors for this movie has not yet landed, and we are interested in inviting you to play a role in it."
Liu Ye's heartbeat suddenly accelerated with Ning Hao's words. He put down his wine glass and chopsticks, sat up and looked at Ning Hao, and asked seriously, "Brother Hao, what role does your company want me to play?"
Ning Hao smiled slightly, and said, "The specific role we will play is not in a hurry, but I can assure you that this role has more than double digits in lines and scenes, so it must be a relatively important role."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Ye and Xie Wei looked at each other, and they were very excited.
In a movie, it doesn't matter if the lines exceed two digits. Even if there are twenty lines, it may be finished in one scene and one dialogue. If it is shot in one shot, it is just one shot, even if it is a storyboard, it is usually ten. Sentence lines are five or six shots, which is amazing. If the number of shots can be guaranteed while the number of lines is guaranteed, then the exposure of this character will be guaranteed enough.
In addition to being excited, Liu Ye asked cautiously, "By the way, Brother Hao, I don't know if it's a positive role or a negative role?"
Liu Ye didn't want to have fun, and then let himself play a Japanese soldier in "Flying Tigers", which would be really embarrassing.
Ning Hao's subsequent answer immediately dispelled Liu Ye's concerns: "Don't worry, the role is absolutely positive. To be more specific, he is a Chinese member of the Flying Tigers."
A Chinese member of the Flying Tigers, this role must be a completely positive image. All Liu Ye's concerns were completely dispelled at this moment, and he said excitedly, "Brother Hao, I am willing to play!"
Ning Hao smiled slightly and said, "According to the requirements of Makino Imaging, the main actors of this film need to sign a brokerage contract with us first, so if you are interested in taking on this role, then you must terminate the contract with your current company. , and then sign with us, which is the premise of cooperation."
Having said that, Ning Hao added, "But don't worry, we will bear all the costs you incurred due to your breach of contract. If it involves legal proceedings, we will also come forward to resolve it."
Liu Ye nodded without hesitation: "No problem! I am willing to sign in Makino Imaging! To be honest, both Makino Imaging and Makino Technology are companies that I respect very much!"
Ning Hao smiled and said, "You agreed so quickly before we talked about the details of the contract?"
Liu Ye said seriously: "No matter how the contract is written, I am willing to sign for Muye Impression."
Although he said it very firmly, Liu Ye was also a little nervous and worried in his heart. He didn't know what kind of contract Muye Impression would give him, what if the restraint was too dead, what if it was tied for too long, and what kind of contract would be given to him? What if the monetary return is too small, but he also has a steel scale in his heart. With a company as big as Makino Technology, Makino's impression will not be as bottomless as those small companies in the industry.
Many small companies in the film and television industry will sign very harsh contracts with their actors, but many actors have no right to speak because they are not in the early stage. They can only sign contracts for the opportunity. Liu Ye's current brokerage contract is relatively harsh, because this is his Signed before becoming famous, both rights and interests have been greatly suppressed and exploited, but it is absolutely impossible for companies like Makino Impression to use the same gameplay as these companies.
Seeing that he was so cheerful and firm, Ning Hao put the wine glass aside and said, "Since everyone agrees with each other, let's talk about business first, and then drink after talking about business."
