Chapter 574 Tell Him to Come Over!

"Director Lu, can you wait a moment, Mr. Zhou is really here..."

The young secretary was about to cry, but Lu Ping strode forward, and she dared not reach out to stop her even if she had the guts. Moreover, with her small shoulders, she couldn't stop her even if she wanted to.

But at this moment, before Lu Ping rushed to the door of the general manager's office and pushed the door, the door opened by itself.

Looking at each other, Zhou Zhengyang, who was originally displeased, quickly smiled, and the door opened wide, "Pingzi, come, come, come, you are really rare, you don't even want to come to the company for the film preparation , Why are you giving face so much today? Come quickly, come inside, Xiao Fang, go and take out the bag of silver needles and make a pot!"

Seeing that he was off the hook, Secretary Fang immediately relaxed, and replied with a smile, "Okay, Mr. Zhou."

At this time, Zhou Zhengyang put his arms around Lu Ping's shoulders and dragged him into the room, as if he didn't see the anger on his face at all—Gao Lanlan was really in the room.

Seeing Lu Ping's angry face, Gao Lanlan turned her head and glanced at Secretary Fang, smiled and stretched out her hand to stop her, saying, "Xiao Fang, go do your work and let me go!"

Secretary Fang hesitated for a moment, seeing that Zhou Zhengyang didn't say anything, and didn't express anything, he immediately thanked him, "Sister Gao, I'm sorry for your trouble!" After speaking, she turned and went out, closing the door.

Seeing that the door was closed, Gao Lanlan turned her head to see that Lu Ping had already sat on the sofa, but she was still furious. She walked over and opened her mouth to speak, but Zhou Zhengyang suddenly raised his head and gave her a wink.

Gao Lanlan thought for a while and said with a smile, "I'll make tea for you!"

Zhou Zhengyang chuckled and said, "Okay!"

Then he turned his head, patted Lu Ping on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Lan Lan and I are discussing about your new movie, you said you don't want to come here, why, brother, can I offend you? Huh?"

Speaking of this, Lu Ping felt ashamed. He made two films in a row, and all the investors behind him were Zhou Zhengyang. After "Ma Mingfeng Xiaoxiao" was released and made a lot of money, many people contacted him behind the scenes, especially after he won the Great Wall Award for Best Director, his net worth soared, and many companies were willing to pay high prices to poach him. The media even directly promised that if they make a movie in the past, as long as they don't pay for it, they will give him the final editing rights for the next one!

Final cut, that is almost one of the ultimate dreams of all directors, how could he not be tempted!

In the past year or so, he has been procrastinating on opening new dramas. On the one hand, it is because of Lu Lingxi that he is a little trapped in love, but what he has to admit is that he has been struggling in his heart whether to change jobs.

Whether it is for his own development or for the consideration of making money, it seems that the Tianyi Film and Television Company that Zhou Zhengyang is staying in seems a bit small, but for the consideration of human feelings, he feels that it is necessary for him to at least help Zhou Zhengyang Make a movie that makes him a lot of money, so he can leave with nothing to worry about.

So, hearing the words at this time, remembering that in the past year or so, I really tried to avoid coming to Tianyi Film and Television as much as possible, the anger in my heart was suppressed a bit, I could only force a smile, and said : "It's nothing, I'm mainly in a bad mood recently!"

Zhou Zhengyang laughed when he heard the words, and he didn't know whether to believe this explanation, but he didn't mean to delve into it, and in the blink of an eye, he said again: "You want to come more, come and sit down, let's have a good chat! Just now, I was telling Lan Lan, you are too conservative, right? If you want to make a youth romance film, no problem! But what do you mean by planning to find two students who haven’t graduated yet? I’m afraid you Zhou Ge and I Not willing to spend money?"

While speaking, he waved his hand, pointed at Gao Lanlan who was making tea with her head bowed, and said proudly, "Ask your sister Gao, what did I tell her just now?"

Gao Lanlan raised her head and smiled when she heard the words, but she didn't speak, and left the right to speak to Zhou Zhengyang, and Zhou Zhengyang obviously didn't intend to let Gao Lanlan say anything, and before anyone could speak, he continued: "I told Lan Lan , 10 million is not enough, just 15 million, anyway, this 15 million is reserved for you! 15 million is still not enough, so let's have 20 million, right? "

He scolded Fang Qiu, "I know you want to fight Li Qian, but the meaning of fighting against Taiwan is not that you have to match the standard in everything! He is looking for a freshman girl, so you have to find a little girl? Although he, Li Qian, is very famous, he is still a rookie in movies, how does he compare to you? You can beat him to five!"

While speaking, he exaggeratedly stretched out five fingers, and said: "He is a new director, yes, he is famous, and he has a small investment, no matter who he hires to act, he can't pay! But our goal is not to not pay, Our goal is to make a lot of money, right? So, it’s not shameful for him to find a little girl to act, it’s safe to think about it, but you Lu Ping, the best director of the Great Wall Award, you can find a cucumber for the film Let’s act, no, buddy, I can’t afford to lose that person, it’s a loss!”

Lu Ping opened his mouth to argue, but Zhou Zhengyang did not wait for him to speak, and continued: "And you think about it the other way around, as a director, you should find two cucumber eggs to teach. It's easier to teach, or find a few big stars and idols. It is easier to pull it over and teach it? Of the two, which one can better reflect the director's skill?"

Lu Ping was tongue-tied. At this time, Gao Lanlan made tea, first offered a cup to Zhou Zhengyang, then brought Lu Ping's over, and smiled, "Of course it's even more difficult to train and teach actors who have already been established! It’s easy to paint! Those younger idol actors have already modeled their performances!”

Zhou Zhengyang patted his thigh, "Yes!"

Now, Lu Ping really hesitated.

Although he understood Zhou Zhengyang's intention of using a few idol actors to play the role, to put it bluntly, he would rather spend a higher salary than invite a few popular actors to act in order to attract more young people to participate in the film. And Lu Ping also has to admit that if a few popular idol actors are really invited to film, it will indeed attract more attention, and there will be a better point of effort in the publicity before the release.

Previously, Lu Ping originally wanted to be like Li Qian, and find a few penniless young actors, even those students who were still in school, to make his new movie. , but, thinking about it now, Zhou Zhengyang's statement is not unreasonable.

What a skill it is to draw on a blank sheet of paper! A ball of ink accidentally dripped onto the paper. Those who are not good enough can just discard the paper and throw it away, but experts can make use of this ball of ink to make a painting Good drawing!

So, he thought about it, finally nodded, and said, "That's fine!"

Zhou Zhengyang laughed loudly, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "That's right!"

After a pause, he said to Lu Ping and Gao Lanlan: "Don't forget, you are Lu Ping, you are a well-known director in China, and you are the best director of the Great Wall Award! The comparison is comparable, but we can't just because we want If you compare yourself with someone, you will lose your value, you say, right?"

This statement is quite flattering, but it is probably true.

Although Lu Ping only has two films, they can indeed be classified as successful directors. He has already gained a certain reputation at home and abroad, especially among film and television companies and actors. Fame, although it is not comparable to a big star like Li Qian, but in movies, Li Qian is still behind him, let alone a few streets!

Moreover, who doesn't like to hear nice words?

At this time, Lu Ping couldn't help but grinned and smiled slightly when he heard the words.

And what he himself didn't realize was that the overwhelming anger in his heart when he came here just now, when he went straight to the office, has been vented more than half of it unconsciously by now!

At least there was no anger on his face.

At this time, Zhou Zhengyang tried to persuade everyone to drink tea. After everyone had a cup of tea and put it down, Zhou Zhengyang suddenly brought the topic back with a sentence, "By the way, when you came in just now, I saw you frown and stare in anger. Is something wrong?"

At this time, Lu Ping's anger was almost gone, and he was already in a state of decline and exhaustion. Although he couldn't help frowning, his tone was softer, "I just heard that Li Qian's script got stuck at the TV station, and some people said that it was directly killed, this matter...you can't do it, can you?"

After a pause, before Zhou Zhengyang could answer, he said solemnly again: "Brother Zhou, I want to break up with Li Qian, but this method is still useless, I don't bother to use this method! Moreover, There is no impenetrable wall in the world, once it spreads in the future, it will not be good for you and my reputation, this is a taboo in the industry!"

Zhou Zhengyang glanced at Lu Ping when he heard the words, and suddenly laughed.

After laughing, he patted Lu Ping's shoulder affectionately again, and said with a smile: "Pingzi, you underestimate your Brother Zhou, don't you? You don't disdain, do you think I'm willing to do such dirty things?"

Lu Ping was taken aback when he heard the words, "You didn't do it?"

Zhou Zhengyang shook his head calmly, "I also heard about the matter a few days ago. Let me tell you, I was also very surprised when this matter first came out. I'm happy to say that, after all, you are going to be with me. He can compare! But if you want to say that you do this kind of thing by yourself, your brother Zhou is not so despicable!"

Hearing this, Lu Ping took a deep breath, and his expression became more relaxed, "That's it!"

Zhou Zhengyang laughed again when he heard the words, "Actually, after I heard the news, even if I was a little happy, that was what happened at that moment, and then I thought, this... mother is unlucky, after all, someone can take our mainland The director's fighting spirit has been aroused, if he dies halfway, our Lu Da director will follow suit, who should I cry to?" After finishing speaking, he laughed.

What he said was funny, and what he said was full of praise for Lu Ping. Gao Lanlan and Lu Ping couldn't help laughing when they heard the words.

So far, all doubts about him in Lu Ping's heart have dissipated without a trace, and the little anger that was left in his heart has long since disappeared.

But at this time, he still couldn't help asking: "Then, Brother Zhou, you have a lot of contacts in the industry and the government. Do you know who did it?"

Zhou Zhengyang smiled mysteriously when he heard the words, as if he knew it already, and it seemed that he was just putting on airs, "Well, I heard some rumors from high-level officials, but...it's none of our business!"

After a pause, he smiled again: "And you can rest assured that Li Qian's book is said to be just an ordinary youth romance movie. My friends who have seen this book in the radio and television department said that there is nothing wrong with it." The place where my son stepped on the line, so I guess he just stuck him once, and he won't be killed!"

While talking, he patted Lu Ping on the shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Don't worry! You, your opponent, will definitely be fine. If he is really stuck, I will come forward to help him out. For you to make this film well, don’t you think so?”

Lu Ping laughed helplessly upon hearing this.

What Zhou Zhengyang said really made him speechless.

But soon, he changed the subject on his own initiative and asked, "By the way, you should have found out the name of his movie, right?"

Zhou Zhengyang nodded and said with a smile: "I told Lan Lan just now that Li Qian's play is called "My Sassy Girl", but it's just a tentative title. Who knows what it will be called when it's released."

Lu Ping frowned upon hearing this, "My... sassy girlfriend?"

He frowned and pondered for a moment, before he could speak, Gao Lanlan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "From this name, I can probably guess a little bit of his train of thought, as well as some information from his play before. It should be in a light comedy style. Maybe, I think he should be shooting in that kind of joking style?"

Zhou Zhengyang turned to look at Lu Ping when he heard the words.

But at this time, Lu Ping just smiled, and didn't know what he thought of, or what he analyzed, but at this time he looked completely indifferent, and said with a smile: "It's useless to guess others! I don't need to go No matter what he wants to shoot, I just need to take good pictures of my own things! Even, I wish he could take better pictures, only in that way can I win something interesting, otherwise, it will be too boring!"

Zhou Zhengyang laughed out loud when he heard the words, and Gao Lanlan couldn't help laughing too.

"This is you, this is the attitude that the best director of the Great Wall Award should have!" Zhou Zhengyang didn't accept his smile, and said loudly: "Li Qian is the leader of the music industry. In the music industry, no one is qualified to break up with him. He has a good wrist, and his level of shooting TV dramas is also extraordinary, but making movies is completely different from his writing songs, making records, and even shooting TV dramas!"

At this point, he said with high spirits: "Investment is my job. How much money do you want? Just ask for it. It's Lan Lan's job to sign someone. Whoever you want, just let her talk about it. Make a good movie, yes." Your job! Let's join forces, relying on Li Qian, hehe, just let him come here!"
