How to be financially free

Chapter 567
At this time the weather is already quite cold.

Director Zhang wrapped himself in a coat, pressed his peaked cap down very low, and put on a pair of sunglasses by the way.

In Hengdian, Director Zhang is quite recognizable, and celebrities may be chased and intercepted by fans.But for him, he may be greeted by group leaders from all walks of life who recommend themselves, or even young actors chasing their dreams.

Sometimes, it is very common for a young man to ask for 5 minutes while walking.

I don't deny the enthusiasm of these young people to pursue their dreams, but this director Zhang himself said that it would be nice to listen to the story of how he embarked on the road of acting by some coincidence and became popular in the end.

When someone else is telling a story, you have to take it seriously, who is to blame?

In Hengdian, in order to pursue their dreams, there are many people who are hungry without a meal, and they get much more for screwing outside than here.

From the masses to the group specials, to the special appointments, if you don't become a star, you will end up as an ant.

As for Zhang Datao and Zhang Dao, he is naturally at the top of the food chain in this industry.

The girl An Ran went to change clothes.

While waiting, Director Zhang smoked a cigarette with Xu Wen, chatting about the fate of these people in a teasing tone.

"Xu Shao, who is Song Qingqian and you?" He asked tentatively.

"Let's be friends!" Xu Wen glanced at Zhang Datao and said.

Zhang Datao let out a sigh, thoughtfully.

"Miss Song has always been very righteous to her friends. Originally, I didn't think much about it, but seeing Xu Shao in person, I can't help but think about it!"

As he spoke, he observed Xu Wen's expression.

"But don't worry, if you say you are a friend, then you are a friend. Although everyone in our circle knows that there is a bit of trouble, but I, Zhang, are notoriously tight-lipped."

Xu Wen lightly exhaled a puff of cigarette, smiled, and before he could speak, there was a gentle breeze of fragrance around him.

An Ran changed out of her palace attire, and now she has long hair and is standing beside the two of them.

At this moment, almost all her make-up has been removed, but her real face looks like noodles in clear soup, and she looks good without makeup.

However, the most indispensable thing in the entertainment industry is beautiful women.

If you want to be popular, you have time and fate. Sometimes, it is really not as simple as just lying down.

Xu Wenduo glanced at it before being caught by Director Zhang.

"An Ran, you are in charge of accompanying Xu Shao tonight, do you hear me?" Zhang Datao took a look at An Ran and ordered.

An Ran obeyed obediently, and leaned against Xu Wen.

"Xu Shao, I have an appointment with the producer later. Let's go to the VIP building in Hengdian together. The conditions are limited and the hospitality is not good. We will make an appointment next time when we change places." Director Zhang said politely, with a The assistant director and a group of four left the set.

The nanny car is not far ahead.

On the way there, as expected, self-recommended group leaders kept coming up and handing business cards.

It is naturally impossible for Director Zhang to end this kind of thing in person.

The assistant director at the side did not pretend to speak, frowned and blocked one wave after another, and occasionally scolded an obviously shameless person.

These people are brown sugar, and they will get close to them whenever they have a chance, and they will not get rid of them if they show a good face.

This time, he was traveling lightly and didn't bring too many people with him.

If you encounter some relatively large situations, with a host of male and female protagonists and a bunch of crew members around, shouting and hugging, there will be a large group of people surrounded by a difficult move.

He got into his painted black nanny car and went straight to the VIP building in Hengdian.

The VIP building can be regarded as the official hotel of Hengdian Film and Television City. It is close to several major film and television bases, and usually receives celebrities.

Here, too, there aren't many options.

In the car, Xu Wen and this Director Zhang continued to chat, while An Ran obediently stayed by the side.

Director Zhang looked out the window, pointed, and was very familiar with some crews.

Xu Wen looked in the direction, there was an ancient costume for a while, and the Republic of China for a while, but there was a feeling of interlacing time and space.

After a while, we arrived at the VIP building.

When the four of them got out of the car, sharp-eyed reporters who were guarding outside the hotel approached.

"Director Zhang! Director Zhang!"

"Let's go!" Zhang Datao quickened his pace and waved his hand by the way.

The assistant director stood behind and blocked the door.

The hotel staff has quick eyes and quick hands, and hurried up to greet them.

After a while, he escorted them into the elevator.

In the elevator, Director Zhang took off his hat and sunglasses, and let out a long sigh of relief looking at the mirror in the elevator.

"Xu Shao, paparazzi outside here won't be able to get in, so don't worry."

Xu Wen blinked.

Why don't you care?

He doesn't care.

In fact, Director Zhang doesn't care, he's just afraid of trouble.

An Ran beside her looked envious instead.

The life of being chased and intercepted by the paparazzi is what she admires the most and the life she yearns for the most.

She has never experienced the feeling of being annoyed by paparazzi.

In a highly private box in the VIP building, a short, fat middle-aged man was waiting.

"This is the producer of my next major film. Lao Zhou is also an old friend who has worked with me for many years. This is Xu Shao." Director Zhang introduced and started to smoke.

"Oh, good morning, Young Master Xu." This old Zhou was very enthusiastic, and shook hands as soon as he took a few steps forward.

Xu Wen looked a little familiar with this old Zhou.

It's strange, it's not the face of a celebrity, why does it feel like I've seen it somewhere.

When this was mentioned, Lao Zhou felt a little embarrassed.

"In addition to being a producer, I also like guest roles, that is, guest roles."

Director Zhang helped Xu Wen light a cigarette, smiling.

"Xu Shao, my old buddy has played no less than ten roles in my drama, and the way of acting has always been very stable!"

After several people mentioned it in detail, Xu Wen realized why he was so familiar.

This producer Zhou has always liked to play roles like a lecherous superior boss. Seeing him short, fat and bald, with a narrowing of his eyebrows and eyes, he acted in his true colors, and he didn't feel that clichéd at all.

"But Xu Shao, don't look at Lao Zhou playing these roles all the time, he's quite decent himself." Director Zhang smoked a cigarette and said a few words.

Lao Zhou shook his head and smiled, a little embarrassed.

"Let's not talk, let's talk."

A few people drank some tea at the small table beside them, and then arranged for the dishes to be served.

The fewer people, the more important things are.

However, none of them took the initiative to bring up business.

Sitting at the wine table, a few people talked high-spiritedly, while An Ran at the side poured wine consciously or helped Xu Wen with vegetables, fully interpreting her role.

Seeing that most of the dish was eaten, a few people were just talking about it.

Xu Wen also heard a lot of gossip.

No, it cannot be called gossip.

Nine out of ten of what these people said in front of them is true.

"Yes, it's her. Now that the resources have been downgraded, she is looking for sponsors everywhere! Hey, several friends around me have asked about this, so it depends on who is most interested, and I have to match up." Director Zhang said in a frivolous tone. Telling secrets.

Xu Wen was a little surprised when he heard that.

No!
Zhang Datao said she is top-notch in domestic entertainment!
No wonder the exposure has gone down now.

It turns out that there is no gold master!
"Is Young Master Xu interested? With your strength, maybe she can't wait for it?" Director Zhang said half-jokingly.

"Me? I'm not interested in that." Xu Wen smiled and shook his head, not because he was pretending to be a gentleman.

The main reason is that all the fuckers are openly looking for financial backers in the circle, and he is not interested in whoever he loves.

Then, he has no money now, but he has no resources in the entertainment industry, and he is not suitable.

This one mainly wants to find a funder who can have resources.

I have heard too much gossip, and my curiosity is satisfied.

But Xu Wen was a little tired.

Why don't you mention the business, aren't you just waiting for yourself to speak first?

He really didn't want to engage in these secretive, waiting for someone to take the initiative, or take the initiative and other dramas.

To put it bluntly, he doesn't feel bad about using this investment fund, and it makes him a little impatient to sit here and not push forward the business.

Being patient, Xu Wen thought that he still had an investment probe that was useless, and immediately used the investment probe to check the income of this project.

In front of him, Director Zhang still didn't know it, and was still talking about the mountains.

Project Name: [-] Lives Fortunate

Project rate of return: 160%.

This rate of return is okay!
Fine!There is money to be made, and each of them is still moaning, don't wait!

"Xu Shao, you eat vegetables."

An Ran on the side observed Xu Wen's slight frown, feeling uneasy, stood next to Xu Wen, and put some food on Xu Wen's plate.

Xu Wen looked at An Ran and nodded.

Director Zhang and Lao Zhou on the side exchanged glances.

"An Ran, drink some wine with Young Master Xu."

"Let's talk about business first!" Xu Wen covered the rim of his glass, stopping An Ran who was busy standing up to pour the wine.

An Ran stood, and then sat down a little awkwardly.

"Director Zhang, and this weekly producer, and me! Actually, I came here with sincerity."

"It's natural. Young Master Xu came here on a special trip, so he's full of sincerity. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to sit at the same table and eat together." Director Zhang put down his wine glass and said with a smile.

Xu Wen looked at Director Zhang.

According to his advance understanding, he knew that Director Zhang was a person with a strong desire to control. On the set, he hoped to control the overall situation.

so··

"How about this, Director Zhang, I will open the skylight and speak clearly. I am also an amateur, so naturally I will not do things like an amateur commanding an expert." Xu Wen said lightly.

Director Zhang took a sip of his wine and listened intently.

"You voted for this movie! The first purpose is naturally to make money for your director Zhang's name," Xu Wen said.

"There are losses and gains in investing, but I, Mr. Zhang, will never let my investors suffer. Young Master Xu, you can inquire about my reputation." Director Zhang said with a smile.

"That's enough." Xu Wen said with a smile, "Second! I'm sure you know that I want to praise someone by the way."

When he said this, Director Zhang was naturally not stupid.

"Xu Shao, it stands to reason that I should have given face to the person recommended by Ms. Song, but to tell you the truth, someone has filled in the original role." He was a little embarrassed, saying that it was Han Han who came to try. The drama was brushed.

Xu Wen shook his hand slightly, and Director Zhang consciously shut up.

No matter how big the director is, it still depends on the investor's face.

Money is the boss.

"Let me just say that! I can vote for anything from 5000 million to [-] million, but you can figure out what I want." Xu Wen didn't talk nonsense.

It's not for nothing. They finalized it here, and his legal team will naturally come over to discuss the details of the contract.

Purely commercial behavior, when the time comes, the profit will not be less than what he deserves.

As soon as he said this, Director Zhang's expression changed immediately, and he was shocked.

He has seen many investors, but this is the first time he has seen such a relaxed and informal investor.

The point is, people really don't have any messy requirements.

The request is very pure!

It is a clear-cut banner that they are coming to support people.

However, there are difficulties.

Director Zhang's expression became a little tangled.

After all, this Xu Shao's investment has almost become one of the main investors of the whole drama.

Naturally, it cannot be dismissed by a small role.

"Xu Shao, you don't know, the heroine is already a nail in the coffin, it's really hard to change." Zhang Datao's face was full of embarrassment and bitterness.

He really wants this investment!
However, he can also come up with something.

Xu Wen looked a little surprised.

"Director Zhang, have you misunderstood? I didn't tell you to arrange heroines, and you can randomly arrange people for unsuitable roles. Isn't this playing the piano randomly? Even if I invest in favor of people, I still have to consider the benefits afterwards, right?"

Director Zhang was overjoyed all of a sudden.

"Then you?"

"Look at the arrangement! A character similar to the original female third, or a character with some characteristics is fine." After all, Han Han is no better than a professional, and Xu Wen doesn't want to make random arrangements to create problems for others.

"Then how can it be!" Director Zhang became inexplicably excited, "Mr. Xu, even if you don't arrange a female first, you must arrange a female second!"

Producer Zhou coughed twice and said something in a low voice.

"The second female is also approved."

Director Zhang looked at Producer Zhou.

"Didn't you sign the contract? Just change it if you didn't sign it." He said indifferently.

By accident, the original role of the second female lead became a victim inexplicably.

In fact, it was the same situation when Han Han came here at first.

Fortunately, behind her is Xu Wen.

As soon as you become an investor in this project, the appointed role is fixed, and no one can move it.

"Then thank you Director Zhang in advance, how much investment is missing, you can tell me the number!" Xu Wen smiled slightly.

"Although I can't wait to ask you for an investment of 5000 million yuan, but we can't speak indiscriminately. 5000 million yuan is [-] million yuan. Thank you very much for your help." Director Zhang stood up and thanked you sincerely.

"Thank you? It's just for business." Xu Wen raised his glass.

Director Zhang and Producer Zhou quickly stood up and clinked glasses with Xu Wen.

An Ran at the side was terrified.

Although he already knew that Xu Shao beside him was an investor in Director Zhang's next film.

However, during such a meal, tens of millions of investments were discussed during the conversation, and in one sentence, the originally designated female second was replaced with this person whom many people wanted to admire.

Is this the power of capital?
If it is yourself?

Although An Ran knew that it was beautiful to think like this, she still couldn't help thinking about it.

She is also a student who graduated from the Drama Academy of Shanghai Magic City. She has all her heart and soul to develop into the entertainment industry, but she thought too much before she came in, but after she came in, she found it difficult to move forward.

Strength must be necessary, and at the same time, someone is willing to support behind.

Look at this young master next to him.

Young, handsome and powerful.

The more she thought about it, the more she spilled the wine.
