Chapter 1788 Let’s Find some Work?

Huajing, in a small alley in the city.

This place is close to Niujie and has very authentic mutton-shabu-shabu. It is really a pleasure to eat steaming hot-pot mutton-shabu in the cold winter.

It's just that not many people can afford to eat hot-boiled mutton these days, so the business of big restaurants like Donglaishun is generally not open to ordinary people. It's usually foreigners and business people who come to eat.

When all the citizens go to eat, they always come to small private shops like this, which are cheap and plentiful.

Just have a few sips of wine, it’s delicious!

Looking at the skinny Ge You, Wang Shuo sighed.

"What's wrong with this world? Can someone like him become a big star? Or is he just chasing Song Dacheng's national son-in-law? No one cares about me, a handsome, talented and beautiful person?" Wang Shuo was eating mutton. , while heartbroken.

Ge You ate, smiling and saying nothing.

He is very quiet in private. When friends get together, he doesn't even tell jokes, and he just plays the role of a listener.

On the other hand, the man next to him answered Wang Shuo directly, "You still lack something compared to him."

"What?" Wang Shuo stared.

"You are wicked." The man said seriously.

"roll!!"

Wang Shuo was so angry that he almost threw his chopsticks at this guy.

"Hahaha……"

Ge You couldn't help but burst out laughing. He patted the man next to him on the shoulder, "Gangzi, please don't be so damaging, okay? Seeing him knocking on my three dinners, you are adding fuel to the fire, I How many more times do I have to treat him to food?"

"Shouldn't you?" Wang Shuo perked up, "Now when everyone is vying to be a household worth ten thousand yuan, you have seriously separated yourself from the people. What I call robbing the rich and giving to the poor!"

When this was mentioned, the buck-toothed screenwriter Feng nodded, "Yes! You make too much money, and it has already caused public outrage!"

Ge You touched his head and giggled non-stop.

Ge You, who was born in 1957, is only 27 years old this year, and he is in the first stage of struggle.

Unexpectedly, he had only played supporting roles in some movies and TV shows before, and he suddenly fell in love with Yin Jun and played the first leading role in his life, and it was a positive lead.

What is even more unexpected is that "The Story of the Editorial Department" is now popular all over the country. Everyone likes the honest and honest Li Dongbao and the lively and beautiful Ge Ling.

Needless to say, the beautiful and stylish Ge Ling became the best national daughter-in-law, and Li Dongbao became another national son-in-law who was directly following Song Dacheng.

"The Story of the Editorial Department" brought Ge You not only a sudden increase in fame, but also real benefits.

Like Zhang Guoli in the previous two years, he relied on his explosive popularity to sign 6 advertising contracts with Kirin Food Company and Kirin Electronics Company, earning more than 1 million yuan!

Today in 1984, unlike Liu Xiaoqing, Tang Guoqiang and Chi Ziqiang who only earned 10,000 a year in advertising endorsement fees three years ago, it is not unusual for a popular star like Ge You to earn 1 million for 6 ads. .

Coupled with his advertising and ratings dividend rewards in "The Story of the Editorial Department", he received almost 1.5 million yuan.

This was 1.5 million in 1984!

If you put it in any corner of Huajing, you can buy it as long as the house is not too big.

Even for courtyard houses that have been increasing in value recently, buying two or three small units outside the Third Ring Road is completely enough!

Although he gave most of the money to his parents, Ge You, who had money in his hands, lived a very happy life during this period and was often beaten up by his friends.

Wang Shuo and Feng Buck Ya are two bad friends who specialize in taking advantage of wealthy people.

But in their twenties and thirties, they definitely not only like to eat and drink. They all want to make a career, or at least become famous.

Seeing that Ge You, the least outstanding among them, actually became a very popular star in China with a TV series written by Yin Jun, Feng Buck Ya and Wang Shuo couldn't sit still.

It's not that they are jealous, but they are eager to be as famous as Ge You.

Of course, when it comes to not being outstanding, no matter what, Ge You is above them when it comes to acting in movies and TV shows, and both of them know this.

But they do not use their own shortcomings to compete with others' strengths.

Feng Buck Ya is very interested in filming TV series and movies, while Wang Shuo feels that writing scripts suits him very well.

Wang Shuo felt that he was an awesome person, but he never thought that he could be better than Yin Jun.

Although "The Story of the Editorial Department" is a story specifically written by a few of them, the specific character settings and some interesting jokes were all given in Yin Jun's script.

Facts have proved that the episodes with the highest ratings basically contain Yin Jun's jokes.

Not to mention that Yin Jun's script has won the Oscar for Best Screenplay for two consecutive years. Although Wang Shuo looks down on Hong Kong Moss Entertainment, he still admires American entertainment.

As for the books published by Yin Jun in the United States, Wang Shuo also bought and read them all this year, which is amazing.

Although Wen Wu is the best, a person is so powerful that even if he is Wang Shuo, there is no way to be jealous.

It's just that there is only one Yin Jun. Wang Shuo feels that he is ranked behind Yin Jun. He is also a great person. Compared with me, others are also scum.

So he recently grabbed a book and showed it to Feng Buck Ya. Feng Buck Ya immediately expressed his liking and wanted to take a photo of the book.

The script is there, the director is there, what’s left is the starring role and the production company.

Although Wang Shuo and Wei Xiaofan were familiar with each other and had drank together several times, he knew that Wei Xiaofan was very measured and would not be willing to waste this favor if he was not certain.

In addition, Feng Buck Ya is also a newcomer, so they have to find a few reliable protagonists in order to get the Huajing Branch of Qilin Culture to agree to invest in the filming.

At that time, even if Gan Guoliang disagreed, there would be no problem with Wei Xiaofan helping to argue the case.

If Mr. Fan takes action, is there anyone who dares not to give him face?

Who is the protagonist looking for?

The first of course is Ge You!

Wang Shuo didn't know anyone else, and Ge You was still his good friend, so when he wrote the book, one of the protagonists he took on was Ge You.

Then another actor who plays the leading role is also an acquaintance, Song Dacheng who had a guest appearance in "The Story of the Editorial Department" - Zhang Guoli.

Wang Shuo and Zhang Guoli are not familiar with each other, but because they played opposite each other in "The Story of the Editorial Department", Zhang Guoli and Ge You have interacted with each other and they appreciate each other very much.

As long as Ge You can be brought on board, he will naturally have the capital to persuade Zhang Guoli.

With Ge You and Zhang Guoli, Wei Xiaofan will definitely support even if it is a bad movie. After all, these two are the direct lineages that Master Jun wants to focus on cultivating!

Today, the two of them came out to Ge You. On the surface, they wanted to cheat him with food and drinks, but in fact, they just wanted to ask Ge You how he had read the book.

After the joke, Wang Shuo turned the conversation to his notebook.

"Yuko, you've been reading the book for a week. What's going on? Tell me the truth!" Wang Shuo said while drinking a small drink, "Even if I'm not in a hurry, our Director Feng is very anxious. ah!"

"roll……"

Feng bared his teeth at his friend, and then looked at Ge You eagerly, "Yuko, how are you doing?"

"I've read the script and I think it's pretty good." Ge You said thoughtfully, "But Shuozi, I think your script is a little too negative and rebellious?"

"Isn't this the mentality of young people nowadays? What's wrong with our movies reflecting current practical problems?" Wang Shuo said disapprovingly.

"But these are very strict times. If the people above don't agree, can you make this book?" Ge You asked again.

Although the severe crackdown on crime has now come to an end, the extremely severe and all-round crackdown made them, the people in Huajing, feel the same way.

If the script for a movie is not very suitable, it is completely normal for it to be rejected.

"Look at your little courage!" Feng bucked his teeth and interjected, "As long as you agree to appear, we will go to Mr. Gan immediately. If he doesn't agree, we will go to Mr. Fan's house. With the reputation of Qilin Culture Huajing Branch, you How could those people at the Broadcasting Bureau not release it?"

"If you find Qilin Culture, there won't be much of a problem, but have you considered the investment income of this movie?" Ge You still asked cautiously.

"Hey, why are you thinking about this? This is what Qilin Culture Huajing Branch should consider, right? After all, they are the ones who pay, and whether they can make money or not is their business!" Wang Shuo said, "Just a few of our buddies. You get some salary, why worry about that?"

Ge You was dumbfounded, "Shuozi, you care about killing and not burying! Have you not thought about what will happen to the rest of us if this movie is blocked?"

"How about what? Just start over from scratch?" Wang Shuo said with a nonchalant look on his face, "Let's just work hard again and try to make another good movie! Then we will make back all the money we lost at once!"

"But I have learned that in Xiangjiang, if a movie fails at the box office, the director, screenwriter, and starring actors will be affected. In severe cases, they will be hidden away and they will not be able to get ahead in their lives!" Ge You said very Honestly.

"Then what do you mean? Are you afraid that your big star will make the wrong movie, and then you will have no way out?" Feng Bucktooth said angrily, "Yuko, we are brothers! Can you not be so practical?"

"It's hard for me to become famous, but I'm not that afraid of things." Ge You quickly poured him a glass of wine, "What I mean is, we can do this script, and I can even play the leading role... But in When handing it to Mr. Gan, could you please add that Mr. Jun can take a look and check it? As long as he says it’s okay, then won’t we shoot it without any scruples?”

When Wang Shuo and Feng Buck Ya heard this, their eyes lit up and they became excited.

yes!

Jun Shao is recognized as the world's number one screenwriter. If you can make him feel that it can be filmed, then there will definitely be no problem!

Even if the box office is not as expected, Qilin Culture Huajing Branch will not blame them because Jun Shao also approved it!

The film that Mr. Jun approved of did not do well at the box office, and we can only blame the audience for not knowing how to appreciate it.

But in fact it definitely won’t happen. There is no script that Mr. Jun is optimistic about that will not be successful!

Wang Shuo, a man with a strong self-esteem, was not unhappy about showing the script to Yin Jun.

It is the first time a person writes a movie script, and he meets the best person in the world who writes scripts. How can you be dissatisfied?

Yes, we have to be convinced! !

After thinking about it, the two nodded.

Of course, they didn't say what would happen if Yin Jun didn't like the script.

But they all know the result for sure. No matter where the script is obtained, it is unlikely to be filmed.

But does Wang Shuo have no confidence in himself?

You must have confidence!

He is Wang Shuo, the writer who filled in "The Story of the Editorial Department"!
