Chapter 204 The civet cat for the prince(1/2)
Feng Xiaolong said in surprise: "Mr. Tan, why do you say this?"
Tan Xiong stood up and walked towards Feng Xiaolong and others, "There are not many important roles in this play, and there are even fewer roles suitable for young people, especially the role of the policeman. According to Director Feng's words,
It can be said that the whole play is of vital importance..."
As he said that, he looked at Zheng Qian and smiled: "Zheng Qian, I'm not targeting you. Opportunities should be used for fair competition. After all, "Thieves in the World" also has an investment of 20 million from our company. Male
I don’t have any ideas about one girl and one girl, but for this role, I think Cao Wei is more suitable. He has richer acting experience and has also won the Baihua Best Newcomer Award..."
At this time, Cao Wei also came over, said hello to several people present, and then smiled apologetically at Zheng Qian: "Duoduo, we are brothers, one family does not speak two languages, I also want this role
.”
Feng Xiaolong narrowed his eyes. He was actually a little angry in his heart, but due to Tan Xiong's status as an investor, he could only endure it and turned to Zheng Qian: "What do you think?"
What advice can Zheng Qian have?
When he learned that this drama was invested by Huaying Media, he actually felt a little bad in his heart.
He shook his head slightly and said: "You are the director, you make the decision!"
Feng Xiaolong was a little irritated. He took the cigarette from Fu Director Lu Bin, lit it, and took a puff. Only then did he feel that his irritation was slightly relieved. He turned to Tan Xiong and said, "Mr. Tan, what happened to Cao Wei before? You
I know very well that I am not very
When you see him, don’t use your status as an investor to pressure me. I, Feng Xiaolong, am not so poor that I would let people interfere with my crew. This role belongs to Zheng Qian. I’ll leave it at that. You can withdraw your investment if you want.
Just divest your investment and do whatever you want!"
There was silence.
Zheng Qian's eyelids jumped. Before he came, he had heard that Director Feng had a bad temper and was a real veteran in the capital. This outburst was truly worthy of his reputation. Even the vice president of Huaying Media dared to quarrel with him. It seemed that Tan Xiong was used to being an investor.
, full of superiority.
Perhaps he didn't expect that Director Feng would directly reject him for a young boy, and his words were sharp, which made Tan Xiong a little stunned for a moment.
Seeing this, Lu Bin quickly stepped forward to hold Tan Xiong and persuaded him earnestly: "Hey, Mr. Tan, it's not like you don't know our director Feng's temper. He has always had taboos in casting, why are you causing trouble in this regard?"
He, Zheng Qian’s expression just now
Now you have seen it, it is indeed good, and Zheng Qian was specially recommended by Hua Zai. If you interfere in this aspect, you will soon offend the two big bosses, Director Feng and Hua Zai! This business is such a loss.
, do you think so?"
Tan Xiong pushed Lu Bin away and looked at Feng Xiaolong with a smile: "Director Feng, it seems that you are really not afraid of us withdrawing our investment? If it were another film, for the sake of Director Feng, let it go, but this is
"Thieves Run the World" didn't exist when the project was first established.
People are optimistic about it, but you don’t know how many times the script has been revised? Whether it can pass the review is not just adding a police officer. To tell you the truth, our company does have plans to withdraw investment. Your drama is too risky, and we don’t want to
Isn’t it enough to play with it?”
"As you wish, we will divest."
Everyone was confused.
Why did you suddenly withdraw your investment in just a few words?
You know, Huaying Media invested 20 million!
Accounting for half of the total investment!
Without this money, how could this movie be made?
Even Feng Xiaolong's eyelids twitched a few times, but if he said it out loud, it would be a matter of minutes. With Feng Xiaolong's current status, it wouldn't be a matter of minutes to attract a few investments?
However, as Tan Xiong said, due to the nature of the story, "The World of Thieves" has a high risk index. Although I am particularly optimistic about it, I cannot bear the pressure of the current environment!
Xu Ruoying next to her was also confused. Now she saw that the role of the heroine fell into her hands. Why did the investors suddenly withdraw their capital?
Tan Xiong waited for Feng Xiaolong's response. He was 70% sure that Feng Xiaolong would relent.
It's just a role, so it won't cost you 20 million.
Who knows, Feng Xiaolong suddenly laughed. He took a long puff of cigarette, then stepped on the cigarette butt under his feet, then walked up and patted Tan Xiong on the shoulder: "Mr. Tan, your company has actually drafted this matter long ago.
Yes, right? I
Just tell me why you brought people here for the audition for no reason. It turns out that you are here to show off your cards. If you said you would withdraw your capital, you will withdraw your capital. Why do you want to make such a show? Who are you to blame? Let me tell you, even if it is only 20 million, I will.
Keep taking pictures!”
Tan Xiong's heart skipped a beat when he saw Director Feng refused to give in and even had a tough attitude.
After all, the other party was a well-known director. He sighed and was about to say something soft.
Who would have known that Zheng Qian, who had been observing silently, now said: "Director Feng, you are short of 20 million. I can probably make up for it if I try to make up for it later."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was confused again.
Even Feng Xiaolong was extremely surprised. He turned his head and looked at Zheng Qian, his eyes bright: "Are you... serious?"
"Seriously!" Zheng Qian nodded and said.
Cao Wei raised his eyebrows and sneered: "Do you have so much money?"
Zheng Qian didn't even look at him, he just looked at the pensive Feng Xiaolong, smiled, and waited for the answer.
At this time, Xu Ruoying said: "Zheng Qian is very popular now. I heard that one endorsement can cost 40 million. He is not short of money."
At this moment, Cao Wei was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
I've only been abroad for half a year, and everything has changed since I came back?
Zheng Qian’s endorsement amount is 40 million!
After Feng Xiaolong finished thinking, he looked at Zheng Qian, suddenly patted Zheng Qian's arm hard, and said with a smile: "Good boy, I owe you a favor."
However, Zheng Qian said: "But... I have a request, let me participate in the creation of the script. Don't worry, I will never cause trouble to you. If it can pass the review, the quality of the script will be guaranteed. If you are not satisfied, you can still
Use your original plan."
Feng Xiaolong praised: "This is a good thing. I just discovered that your creative ability is very strong. OK, I agree!"
Everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief and everyone was happy.
Only Tan Xiong and Cao Wei looked slightly ugly at this time.
Is this out?
Feng Xiaolong said abruptly: "Lu Bin, continue the audition and clear out the rest."
Upon hearing this, deputy director Lu Bin swallowed his saliva, walked up to Mr. Tan and others, and made a gesture of invitation.
Tan Xiong's face was gloomy and uncertain, but if he said it, he would throw water away. Moreover, this script was inherently risky, and the board of directors was originally wavering on the investment.
It's okay now, no more swinging.
He nodded and left the audition hall.
At this time, Cao Wei was still immersed in the news that Zheng Qian had an endorsement of 40 million, and the shock on his face had not dissipated.
When he came to his senses, his eyes were filled with complicated expressions. In desperation, he quickly left.
In the corridor outside, Sister Mei, Liu Bingbing and a group of actors waiting for the audition saw the appearance of assistant director Lu Bin, and they all quickly cheered up.
Who knew that Lu Bin didn't look at them at all, but just led the two people behind him towards the elevator.
"Isn't that Cao Wei?"
"Why is he here? Is he here to audition too?"
"Who is that person walking in front? He looks like he has a very high status. Even the assistant director is so attentive."
Sister Mei heard the discussion of the actors and cleared her throat: "You have no idea. The person at the front is Tan Xiong, our vice president of Huaying Media. This time, "Thieves in the World" has 2,000 people from our company.
Thousands of dollars of investment!”
The actors were in an uproar.
"Oh, I should have thought of it earlier. It turns out that this is the rumored Vice President Tan!"
"I knew I just went over to say hello!"
"It's a pity that such a thick thigh was missed like this!"
"Cao Wei seems to be making a comeback!"
The actors were talking a lot. When everyone looked at Sister Mei, they were full of enthusiasm and even complimented Liu Bingbing.
Liu Bingbing was obviously uncomfortable, she just smiled and kept silent.
At this time, the deputy director Lu Bin sent people back. Hearing the actors' busy discussion, he felt angry in his heart. He couldn't help but said: "The investors have just been changed, and now the crew does not have Hua Hua."
Investment from British Media! Sister Mei, watch your mouth and don’t spread rumors!"
The smile on Sister Mei's face suddenly froze, and she said with a surprised look: "Replaced? What happened?"
Liu Bingbing was also stunned. Thinking of the gloomy faces of Tan Xiong and Cao Wei just now, a bad feeling suddenly arose in her heart.
Lu Bin shook his head and did not answer.
I just called an actor on the spot, led him into the reception hall, and continued the audition.
To be continued...
