Light and shadow player

Chapter 103

Cheng Yu'an made an appointment with Yang Shoucheng one day in advance, saying that he had something urgent to talk about today.

Yang Shoucheng met Cheng Yu'an in the office of Yinhuang Building.

"What would Yu'an drink?"

"Plain water is fine." Cheng Yu'an smiled at the secretary.

The secretary poured drinks for both of them, and led them out with discernment, leaving only Yang Cheng and them.

"Tell me about something urgent, what's the matter?" Yang Shoucheng asked.

Cheng Yu'an didn't beat around the bush, and just threw a stack of documents and vouchers on the table: "Mr. Yang, you can read it yourself."

Cheng Yu'an came to Xingshi to inquire about the crime, and his attitude was extremely unfriendly.

Yang Shoucheng also saw that Cheng Yu'an was in a bad mood, and was puzzled in his heart. He had always treated him as a guest, so why was he so angry today.

Then he picked up the documents on the table and looked through them.

The old fox who has been in the rivers and lakes for decades, what scene has he not seen?

What the document said was nothing more than the crew's corruption. Yang Shoucheng had seen this kind of thing a lot, but he still had to act in the play that should be performed.

"Yu'an, I really didn't know about this kind of thing before. Don't worry, I will give you and Producer Guo an explanation."

Cheng Yu'an couldn't see that Yang Shoucheng was acting?Unceremoniously said: "Mr. Yang, everyone is a sensible person, let's open the skylight and speak honestly.

"I know this kind of thing can't be stopped. The people below have to eat, and sometimes their hands are a little dirty. We just turn a blind eye and close our eyes.

"But now you see, a 2000-yuan video camera costs 7000 yuan, an iron rod costs 50 yuan, and a knife costs 300 yuan. Isn't this ugly? Have you never seen money in your life?"

What Cheng Yuan said was extremely ugly.

"There is also the issue of Guo Fei's treatment. Guo Fei is one of the few directors in my company who can direct dramas. Her films "The Sky" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" received very good ratings in the mainland. I would like to say, At present, there are no less than ten crews looking for Guo Fei to film. She is such an excellent young director, but what kind of treatment does she have?
"Stay in a standard hotel room, the one in the back! Not to mention that she is also the producer of the film crew. This is a bit too disrespectful to my remote media!"

Cheng Yu'an said this lightly, and he didn't let Cheng Lingfeng know about it. If she knew about it, why would she come to Yang Shoucheng to talk about it?

It has been a long time since anyone spoke to Yang Shoucheng in this tone, which made him very embarrassed: "Don't worry, Director Cheng, I will definitely investigate this matter and find out who is behind the scenes."

"I don't need Mr. Yang to find out who is behind the scenes. Every item in this document points to Liang Baijian. I only have two conditions now: first, give us Miss Guo Fei the treatment that we should have; second, fire Liang Baijian and his team, and report Guo Fei apologizes." Cheng Yu'an made his request.

Yang Shoucheng hurriedly said: "It's a big taboo for military strategists to change generals. "Despicable Streets" has already started filming, how can we change directors at this time."

"It's just started now, even if it's overturned and re-shooted, there's still time. If it's not for the good of the show, I can wait until halfway through the filming to talk about it. At that time, it's not just a matter of drinking two glasses of water and talking about it." Cheng Yu'an After speaking, he took a sip of the glass of water in front of him.

Yang Shoucheng was uncertain, and said, "Let me think about it."

Yang Shoucheng narrowed his eyes, already thinking of ideas in his mind.

The meaning of the unspoken rules is that everyone plays like this in private, but it cannot be said on the stage.

No matter what you say about this matter, it is Yinhuang's fault if it reaches the horizon.

The crew is corrupt and discriminates against mainland producers.

At the time of the development conference, he also said that the cooperation between the two parties is full of sincerity.

Is this the sincerity of Yinhuang?

And Yang Shoucheng has no doubt that if Liang Baijian is not fired, Yuanyuan will immediately withdraw his capital from the crew of "Despicable Street" and take back the copyright of the script.

At that time, Yinhuang will lose all his money and will be infamous.

After thinking about it for more than ten minutes, Yang Shoucheng finally agreed to Cheng Yu'an's request: "Okay, I will fire Liang Baijian."

"Thank you, Mr. Yang." Cheng Yu'an said, "I still have something to do on the crew of "Clues of Time and Space", so I'm leaving first. Farewell."

Two days later, news came from the Sound Emperor that the director of "Despicable Streets" Liang Baijian was unable to continue directing due to personal health reasons, and Chen Jiashang took over the film in an emergency rescue.

This set of rhetoric is okay to fool newspaper readers, but it is a bit difficult to convince reporters and colleagues.

The real reason is difficult to find out, but a sensitive reporter guessed one thing: "It is said that Liang Bojian offended Cheng Yu'an from the mainland, and Cheng Yu'an directly went to Yang Sheng to replace him."

No one knows exactly what offended Cheng Yu'an.

Of course, Cheng Yu'an recommended Chen Jiashang to take over "Despicable Street".

At the beginning of May, after Labor Day, the launch conference of "Clues to Time and Space" was held on Hong Kong Island.

It was also at the press conference that Cheng Yuan announced the cast for the first time:

Actor: Gu Tianlei

Actress: Fan Xiaopang

Hu Ge and Huang Xiaoming starred as two computer experts in charge of the space-time surveillance project, and the other two, a man and a woman, were played by Lin Jiadong and Zheng Xiyi.

"Director Cheng, it is rumored that Director Liang Bojian left the crew of "Despicable Street" because he had conflicts with you. Can you respond positively?"

"You also said it was a rumor, how do you want me to respond?" Cheng Yu'an retorted.

"Director Cheng, why did you choose Ms. Fan as the heroine of this film?"

"Most of our investment in this movie is spent on special effects, and the budget for the film is not enough. After hearing about it, Ms. Fan is willing to lower her salary to help me. Besides, I think she is quite suitable for my heroine, so I invite her Here we come." This set of sayings was agreed in advance to create a good image for Fan Xiaopang.

As for the salary, Ms. Fan's salary this time is indeed not high.

"Does Miss Fan have anything to say about this cooperation with Director Cheng?"

"I am very grateful to Director Cheng for inviting me to act. After all, this is Director Cheng's first film after returning from Venice, and I am very nervous, afraid that I will fail Director Cheng's expectations." A very routine answer.

"Director Cheng, can you introduce the two actors next to you?" Some reporters from Hong Kong Island did not know Brother Hu and Xiaoming Huang.

"You must have never watched "The Son of Man" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy". These two are the most popular actors in the mainland. Brother Hu is an artist of my company, and Xiao Ming is my classmate. They are here to help this time. .” Cheng Yuan didn’t say much.

"Does Director Cheng have any expectations for the box office?" This question was obviously asked by a mainland reporter.

"I know that you have been saying that my movie is used to hit the [-] million yuan club, and that the company's new directors have broken through [-] million yuan. If my boss can't keep up, it can't be justified.

I know what answer you want. My expectation for the box office of this film is 1.2 million, so 2000 million more is not too much, right? "Cheng Yu'an said humorously.

Then Cheng Yu'an introduced Lin Chaoxian to the reporters: "Director Lin will join our crew as the action director of "Clues of Time and Space". Director Lin has very rich experience in action scenes, please wait and see."
