love is deeper than the sea

Chapter 90

Gossip is the equivalent of free advertising.

As soon as I heard it, I could bear it, but every night when I went to Li An Hotel to stay overnight, I had to be careful of the reporters, and I had to keep my head low, lest Li An "punish" me with this matter.

On this day, Chen Shaohao, me, and Zuo Lengchan took the project proposal and went to an international film and television culture company to discuss.

The company has a lot of big names, and our studio wants to cooperate with them for a long time, so the two giants of our company have come together - the big boss Chen Shaohao, and the second boss me.Accompanied by the script writer Zuo Lengchan.

When we arrived at the international film and television culture company, as soon as we entered the company's foyer, we found that the floor inside was polished, everyone was dressed in neat suits, full of energy, and they all looked talented.

I shook my head and sighed: "This quality... is much better than our company."

Knowing that Chen Shaohao is coming, there are already people waiting at the door in this company.Seeing us coming, all the little girls turned their eyes on me, shining brightly.

I have never understood girls.After being stared at by them like this, I felt guilty: "Brother, walk in front of me and block me."

Zuo Lengchan: "Bigfoot, you are a young man of an older age, can you not be so cowardly?"

Me: "I'm afraid of girls now. Brother, why do they keep looking at me?"

Zuo Lengchan: "It's rare to meet the male lead of the sex news."

I was helpless: "It's about me and Brother Hao again? This is not over yet. I have a family. This will destroy my marriage."

Zuo Lengchan: "Does your sniper know about this?"

Me: "Got it, goddamn gossip weekly!"

Zuo Lengchan: "He didn't dehumanize you?"

Me: "He said he wanted to see Brother Hao, but he didn't know what his plan was."

As we were talking, several girls ushered us into the elevator and went straight to the general manager's office.In the elevator, the girls kept staring at me, and I was blushing.Speaking of which, I am almost a mature man in my thirties, but I haven't had much contact with women in my life, which is a pity.

I took a chance and chatted with one of the beauties: "Is your boss handsome?"

The beauty smiled and said, "It's definitely not as handsome as the three of you."

I teased her: "The three of us, who do you think is the most handsome?"

The girls laughed together, looking at the faces of the three of us.Chen Shaohao laughed and shook his head, I raised my eyebrows and raised my chin, Zuo Lengchan had a half-smile.

I pretended to be fierce: "Quickly tell me, who is the most handsome! My brother is the most handsome, are you there?"

Girls: "Chen Shaohao is the most stable, that boy is the most eye-catching, and you are the most sunny!"

Me: "Sunshine has a purpose, vampires are popular now, only girls like those who are afraid of light!"

The girls laughed even more.I am proud.

Zuo Lengchan secretly elbowed me: "I can't tell, Dazuo, you have a knack for picking up girls."

Shaking his head: "Girl killer, who else but me?"

Zuo Lengchan: "If the God of Sniper finds out again..."

Me: "Brother, I invite you for dinner!"

Ding, the general manager's office is here.Everyone filed out and entered the meeting room to chat with the general manager.The girls served us tea.

At the conference table, there are only three people on our side, but there are five people on the other side.Chen Shaohao distributed our project proposal to the other five managers. I opened the PPT and began to explain our grand plans.

After talking for almost an hour, I finally finished the project, which made my mouth dry.The two parties then began consultations, exchanging views and asking and answering questions.

After talking for another hour, our discussion finally entered a critical stage, and the crux appeared.

Chen Shaohao and I want to sign a contract with a basket of artists under XX International Culture Company at a relatively favorable price.But several managers listened to our statement, but felt that the deal was too risky.There are two reasons: [-]. The studio has only just been established, so far there is no work.It is still unknown whether there is such operational strength.[-]. The domestic film and television industry is booming. Artists have a high potential to increase their value, and prices cannot be negotiated.

While I was drinking tea, Chen Shaohao began to fool the manager by talking eloquently.He behaves confidently, speaks maturely, and has a bossy demeanor.Zuo Lengchan was also very conscientious, explaining the selling points of the script to the other party.Everyone has risked everything in order to negotiate this deal!

Shopping malls are like battlefields, full of protracted wars.When it came to noon, everyone felt hungry, so they decided to go to the hotel for dinner and talk while eating.

When I got off the office building, I frowned: "Brother, my tongue is blistered..."

Zuo Lengchan also stuck out his tongue: "Back then, brother kissing with tongue never hurt so much."

Me: "Who are you playing tongue-kissing with?"

Zuo Lengchan: "Subject."

Me: "Brother, you are also thirty, is it time to find a woman to settle down?"

Zuo Lengchan sighed, "Your sister-in-law is far away..."

I nodded my chin at the little girls: "Those girls are good, young, and just right for you. Which one do you like, should you accept it quickly?"

Chen Shaohao was looking at the number of the elevator descending, and suddenly said: "We haven't finished talking about business matters. Let's not talk about other gossip?"

Me: "Brother Hao, you have been tense for a long time, and if you don't relax, you will lose your hair."

Chen Shaohao: "Here we are, let's go."

This company has its own wholly-owned hotel, and we went into the hotel for lunch.While eating, suddenly people's heads moved in the distance.

I was holding a toast with coconut milk, and I couldn't help but ask, "Who's here?"

The manager of the other party: "Today, a big star came to our company to discuss cooperation intentions. The company has been preparing for it early in the morning."

Chen Shaohao laughed: "Your company has countless big names, what other big stars can make you so nervous?"

The manager waved his hand: "How to say this, there is no way to compare. Although our company's artists are popular in China, they are not even considered low-level when they go abroad. Different cultural circles have different influences."

Chen Shaohao: "So this big star is not a domestic artist?"

Manager: "That's right. He is a popular star in Hollywood, and his worth is unmatched."

Chen Shaohao: "Oh? I don't know who this celebrity is?"

The manager's face was full of color: "Our company finally invited him. It's the first time to show up in China!"

Zuo Lengchan laughed: "Could it be Li An who just won an Oscar?"

The manager was stunned: "How do you know?"

Me: "What?!"

102. Cooperation

Li An and his party also came to the hotel for dinner.In front of outsiders, he always has a cold face, which is very suitable for his status as a popular actor in Hollywood.

Behind him was an assistant bodyguard, and beside him were the boss and translator of the film and television culture company.The boss was chattering in his ear, and the interpreter was chattering and translating, but Li An's response was very lacking, only nodding occasionally.

They approached from a distance, Li An seemed to notice my gaze, and looked up at me.

I raised my wine glass and looked at him in a daze.

Me, Li An: "..."

None of us expected to bump into each other in such a public place.

The second manager on the opposite side called me: "Mr. Li? Mr. Li?"

I came to my senses, and quickly looked back: "I'm sorry, I saw the big star was distracted. Come, come, cheers!"

The second manager drank a glass of red wine and said gossipingly: "Our boss wants to ask Li An to act in a big production that is going to win awards, and he gave a very high price! But that Li An doesn't seem to have high intentions."

Why do I?"

Manager [-]: "Why else, it must be that they are not satisfied with the salary! Who wouldn't want to come to China to make money like this kind of European and American stars? In their eyes, the big market of more than one billion people is a piece of fat!"

Manager San laughed and said, "Didn't Li An just win a supporting role award? I really think I'm in the sky. But stars like them can only open their mouths now. After passing this village, there will be no such store next year!"

My eyes sink.

Seeing this, Zuo Lengchan secretly pulled my sleeve to prevent me from punching me: "Calm down, big feet calm down! Brother will accompany you to pretend to beat them up tonight, now let's talk about business."

I waved his hand away: "Don't worry, I know it well."

Under the gaze of Zuo Lengchan who seemed to be staring at a bomb, I held up the apple juice and saluted the managers: "Speaking of the fact that there is no such store in this village, the price of our studio is also reasonable. Now our studio is It’s the initial stage, and there is a big shortage of actors, so we spare no effort to recruit celebrities. The second, third and first-tier ones are all packaged up. If we wait a few years, our studio’s reputation will be established, and actors will come to our door. We will never show up again At such a high price."

The managers' expressions froze and they began to discuss in low voices.

Manager: "Mr. Li, the competition in the film and television industry is fierce now, and it is not easy to become famous. Moreover, your scripts are not mainstream, and it is still unknown how wide the audience will be."

I laughed: "We are in business, which investment is not unknown? If it is all a business that makes a profit without losing money, wouldn't we all be Li Ka-shing? The greater the risk, the greater the return, it depends on whether you have the ability to discern the pearl." .”

The manager was about to speak when he suddenly looked behind me and said with a complete expression: "Mr. Huang!"

When I turned around, it turned out to be Huang, the executive president of the film and television culture company.And beside him is Li An, who has a dark face and a cold, aggressive aura.

Mr. Huang came over with a smile and shook hands with Chen Shaohao: "Shaohao, I heard that you are coming, I wanted to receive it in person. It's just that I am too busy with business, so I have to let these managers talk to you first. How did the morning talk go? The project is finalized Yet?"

Chen Shaohao: "Mostly there is a consensus, but there are still some important issues that have not been negotiated."

Mr. Huang: "Shaohao is really a good-looking talent. He was as successful as a star himself, and now he runs a studio. I have met countless stars, but it is too rare to see a generalist like you."

Chen Shaohao said in a personable manner: "Where."

Chen Shaohao looked at Li An and said with a smile, "President Huang, this is the
