Chapter 53 0053: The Road of Enemies Is Really Narrow
The bright smile on Wang Wei's face immediately froze after seeing him off. He was silent for two seconds and then said politely: "It turns out to be Director Jiang and Director Huang. I'm glad to meet you."
The two parties shook hands, Jiang Ge smiled slightly, went straight to the point, and said: "Knowing that Mr. Wang Wei is busy, we took the script over. After you read it, you only need to act in one or two short clips."
"This..." Wang Wei didn't expect that they would be so persistent that they would come to his company. Although the reply this morning was relatively tactful, any smart person would understand that it meant "turn it down."
but.
Everyone came to the Magic City from Hangzhou and came to the door in person with sincerity. It was not easy to refuse directly.
Just when he was in trouble, his manager came out and urged: "Awei, what are you doing standing here? Go and sort out the materials quickly, and then go home and pack your luggage."
Wang Wei seemed to have seen a savior and said hurriedly: "Brother Luo, it's like this..."
After hearing him explain the reason, the manager glanced at Jiang Ge and Huang Tao, changed his face instantly, and said with a smile: "Director Jiang, Director Huang, I'm so sorry, I may have to make your trip in vain, you also We all work in this industry, so we must know that if there is a problem with the contract, there will be a lot of things to argue about. Ah Wei really can't spare the time to act in your drama. "
Seeing that he was still using the same reason as before, Jiang Ge frowned slightly and thought about it in his mind.
One of the people who came downstairs just now was the boss of this brokerage company, and Wang Wei was talking and laughing with them, looking very happy. Is there something wrong with the contract?
However, these are just guesses.
He was not disturbed by the other party's resolute attitude. He calmly took out a folder from the small bag and said, "I brought the script. You can take a look at it before making a decision."
Huang Tao smiled and supported: "This is the most perfect and martial arts script I have seen in the past ten years. I dare to use my career as a director to guarantee that this drama will definitely create a ratings myth and set off an unprecedented Martial Arts Wave!”
The professional card was played.
When Wang Wei heard this, he hesitated and seemed to reach out to pick it up. At this time, his agent stopped him.
A low-level online drama director, a rich second generation who found a few songs from nowhere to show off, told me that there was a divine drama. Do you think I would believe it?
Funny? No.
Who is still making serious martial arts dramas these days? Who would watch it if we didn't arrange a few handsome men and beautiful women to have a few love affairs and engage in triangle relationships?
He lowered his face and said impatiently: "I'm really sorry, there's really nothing we can do."
Jiang Ge held back the anger in his heart and tried again: "We can increase the salary to 200,000 per episode."
The manager was indifferent and just smiled and said: "Thank you two Ah Wei for your appreciation. There will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. I apologize for the poor reception."
Django was very disappointed. There was no point in adding more money.
One is that it is not worth it, and the other is that it is not available.
Huang Tao was also surprised. Two hundred thousand an episode was not very high, but very high for an actor of Huang Wei's caliber. Why would he refuse this? I didn’t even want to take a look at the script.
Things are not as simple as they appear.
Django sighed.
never mind.
He didn't talk much about it. He couldn't force cooperation when it came to cooperation. He immediately said, "Excuse me."
He has never begged someone down like this before, and he was already very sincere and respectful. If he were that "Django", he would have been spitting on someone's face in at most three sentences.
Wang Wei is indeed the first candidate for Xiao Yuer who meets his requirements, but it is not to the point that if it is not Wang Weiyan, he will not be able to turn on the phone. At worst, he will expand the scope of his search.
Watching the two people leave in the elevator, the manager saw that Wang Wei seemed to be in a bad mood and explained: "Awei, you don't have to feel any guilt. Every actor will push the script. It's a normal thing. ”
Wang Wei chuckled and said, "You are worrying too much. How could I be so upset about this matter?"
The agent smiled and said: "That's right. You are now on the rise of your career. What you need is large investment and large-scale film and television dramas to increase your visibility and popularity. Penguin Group has invested a lot of money in Penguin Entertainment to seize the market. There will be a lot of film and television drama resources in the future. If we cooperate with them for the first time, there will be a second and third time. Whoever it is, they will make this choice."
Wang Wei nodded and said: "Understood, okay, let's not talk about it anymore, I will sort out the materials."
at the same time.
Jiang Ge, who was waiting for the elevator with Huang Tao, remembered who the two people who looked familiar at the front desk were. He had seen them when browsing company information before. They were a director and screenwriter in the company.
Moreover, it was the person who was in charge of the project [delivering the script and starting filming of the TV series "Jianghu"].
In this way, the reason for Wang Wei's sudden change of heart is clearly visible.
No wonder he is so determined. The question of a skinny camel or a strong elephant is a multiple-choice question that even a child would do.
The road between enemies is so narrow!
Thinking of this, Jiang Ge's previous disappointment has turned into happiness. It would be better not to invite such a person, it would be too snobbish.
Again.
It is very interesting to have a head-on collision with these people who have left Huafeng Media. Sometimes, God just likes to cause trouble.
However, the most important thing right now is still to deal with Xiao Yu'er's actors, and it's very urgent.
Huang Hai next to him didn't think too much about this matter. He had experienced countless unsatisfactory castings, and it was much better to have the actors reject the script than to have the investors force the actors to play. The latter was more disgusting than eating shit.
Jiang Ge scratched his hair, his mind was empty, and he couldn't think of any good solution.
At this time, the elevator arrived, the door opened, and the two walked in.
Jiang Ge pressed the 1st floor button and asked casually: "Director Huang, do you have any suitable actors to recommend?"
Huang Hai was about to speak when a crisp voice suddenly came: "Wait a minute!"
Jiang Ge hurriedly pressed the door opening button.
In a blink of an eye.
"Thank you."
A man and a woman trotted into the elevator.
The woman was about 20 years old, with delicate features and a short curly hair with a very light feeling, showing a smart beauty. The professional suit showed a modern style, especially the black clavicle necklace around her neck, which made the outfit have a sense of ritual, very famous model.
The man was in his fifties, wearing an old man's hat, with some gray beard, kind eyes, and ordinary but clean clothes, looking elegant and simple.
When the elevator door closed again, Huang Hai stared with excitement and shouted: "Mr. Zhou, it's really you!"
The man was startled, turned around and squinted his eyes, and after a brief confusion, he seemed to remember something and said in surprise: "Xiao Huang?"
