China entertainment good man biography

Chapter 5 'Good Guys, Bad Guys, Backfired'

Two days have passed like this. Li Suan didn't sleep well or eat well, not because he was worried about Mr. Zhang's "Return of the King", but purely because of his previous living habits and lack of self-discipline in his previous life. Now let Li Suan go to the gym every day. Meeting Zhou Gong at a fixed point is pure torture.

But who made you die suddenly in your previous life?

Walking back to the room with crab steps, 25-year-old Li Suanzheng was feeling unspeakable pain, and his jogging for three to 10 minutes had already made him want to die.

Climbing to the front of the computer to refresh the mailbox, the efficiency of Sina book editing really needs to be enhanced.

No one has replied to him yet.

You have to sign a contract. If you don’t sign a contract, you will have no traffic.

Li Suan's patience was completely tortured by these editors.But after thinking about it, writing novels on the Internet at this time has a small probability of making a fortune. When the editor joined the job, I am afraid that he did not come here to find the stars of tomorrow. , thank goodness for that.

Logged into Weibo, looked at the few fans, and didn't know if it was good or bad just breaking the four-digit score, so I updated today's manuscript, and a private message came here just after uploading it.

How about guarding this?
It's iron leek... Fen'er!

Li Suan became interested, clicked on the private message, and then frowned.

This fan claimed to be from the "Jiaxing" project department, and said that he liked Li Suan's novels very much, and wanted to make an appointment with Li Suan for an interview.

Li Suan knew Jiaxing, but what he knew was that ten years later, Jiaxing would be ranked among the top ten entertainment companies in China. The proprietress Yang Mi was having conflicts with other shareholders and wanted to leave the company and no longer be a tool to bring newcomers to debut. people.

But some gossip said that this girl has lost her mind after making too much money, and she is going to pursue art.

A boss who pursues art is a big taboo in this business, just like Mr. Zhang, who said that he only talks about money and not art, but in fact he followed the director to shoot this scene.

Besides, who knows which Jiaxing you are?

Li Suan's reply was very formulaic, he just said that he likes to write, but he has no intention of cooperating, so Balabala... After replying, he decisively blocked it.

Sina is the thigh, Jiaxing?You can be cool and stay where you are!

Li Suan burns incense and takes a bath, waiting for Wen Sheng to possess him, when his cell phone rings inappropriately.

It's an alarm.

The alarm for Mr. Zhang's flight landing.

Within half an hour, Teacher Zhang's call was picked up by Li Suan, and then both sides were silent, and the only sound coming from the phone was the sound of breathing.

"Let's meet and talk."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Li Suan breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling a little nervous when meeting the girl frankly for the first time in his previous life.

Then he went to the bathroom resolutely, and when he was released, he was still thinking, what should I say about this matter.

……

"Farewell, Las Vegas! "What kind of story is it?

It was a story that required the screenwriters and directors to work hard, let the producers, producers, and investors scold their mothers collectively, and then condensed everyone's efforts, but in the end it was not aired.

In the entertainment industry, most of them believe in fate, praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, regardless of whether it is useful or not.Li is considered an atheist, so when he did evil in his previous life, he didn't worry about retribution at all.

As for this life, he feels that he has been reborn anyway, he can be a skeptic, after all, he died once, so he has a more open mind.

After praying "piously" to the window three times, Li Suan set off decisively. When he arrived at the door of Mr. Zhang's room, memories flooded him.

At this point in time, he and Mr. Zhang have just collaborated on a play, and they don’t know each other well, but Li Suan likes to listen to Mr. Zhang reading the script, because a capable screenwriter can bring the script to life. It can be vivid in Li Suan's mind.

Li Suan also likes to type for Teacher Zhang, that is, to connect a projector to the laptop, and he will type a sentence when Teacher Zhang says something.

When he was typing for Teacher Zhang for the first time, listening to Teacher Zhang's lines, Li Suan had the feeling of goosebumps all over the ground. He couldn't control his breathing, so he was kicked out because his breathing was too loud. come out.

Li Suan can still recall that feeling. Teacher Zhang said that this is the charm of art.

Li Suan knocked on the door, and then heard Teacher Zhang's voice.

"come in."

Li Suan pushed the door open and entered.

Teacher Zhang lives in the same standard room as Li Suan, which is only [-] square meters, but this room has been specially selected, and the window is full of traffic on the main road.

At night, when the lights are turned off, it is difficult to see the traffic flow on the street in the distance. The red taillights disappear at the end of the road, and the words in the projection increase one by one, just like entering what Kazuo Inamori said The 'flow'.

I can't feel the flow of time at all, I can only experience the breath and breath in the world of drama.

"Teacher Zhang."

Li Juan looked at the woman seated by the window. She had an average appearance and an average figure, but her chest was full of crimes, and her talent was ready to come out.

Teacher Zhang looked at Li Suan and didn't say a word for a long time. The caring silence continued until Teacher Zhang took a sip of coffee and broke the silence.

"Miss Li, don't be so polite."

Teacher Li?

Li Juan frowned at this name, and there was no other reason. In the days of artistic creation with Mr. Zhang, the two of them did not know how many screenwriter teachers they robbed, how many editor teachers they lost, and how many consultant teachers they made crazy. In their eyes, all enemies who hinder their creation are called teachers.

Then Li Suan felt a little excited. After careful calculation, he and Mr. Zhang haven't seen each other for eight years...so she never heard Mr. Zhang call him teacher.

With a businessman/producer like Brother Jiu, Li Suan only needs to talk about the specific process of operation.

With a screenwriter/artist like Mr. Zhang... an artist, he can only talk about screenwriting, art, humanities, etc.

"Mr. Zhang, can't you really see the direction of this play?"

Teacher Zhang avoided asking questions and just said.

"Yes, brother Jiu told me everything, so I want to ask you, what's wrong with our play, or do you think it's not enough for you?"

Less is definitely less.

But the entertainment circle is the most taboo to talk lightly and deeply. Li Suan and Mr. Zhang have only worked together in one drama before, and he is just a little assistant with some brilliance. The drama of 'disturbing the morale of the army' is not to blame for Teacher Zhang being so hostile.

Li Suan looked at the whiteboard used for meetings in the room, walked over, picked up the fountain pen, and looked at Teacher Zhang.

"Can I tell you something?"

Teacher Zhang nodded.

Li Suan began to write and draw pictures: "We are going to tell the story of a group of beautiful and beautiful Chinese in front of Chinese audiences on China's media platform."

Li Suan left the first label on the whiteboard with a water pen, 'Beautiful Chinese'.

"The collision of different cultures, the taste of foreign countries, and the customs of different regions are all very good points, but what we want to tell is the story of a group of Chinese immigrants who immigrated to the United States and pursued the American dream. !"

He left a second label 'American Dream'.

"Actually, it's nothing, but what's the name of our play, "Farewell, Las Vegas!""

He left a final note on the blackboard 'Escape from Las Vegas. '

"The most superficial question is this. Yes, what we want to promote in our story is 'escape', but Mr. Zhang, we all went to school. At my age, or just now, do you still think that school Is the stuff in it useful?"

Teacher Zhang didn't say a word.

"Now we are like kindergarten teachers, facing the domestic audience and saying, 'Kids, you have to learn well, don't touch pornography, gambling and drugs.'

But the question is are they children?There are winners and losers in gambling. We chose Loser among a group of beautiful and beautiful Chinese. We couldn’t pursue the American dream to gamble. We lost the bet, gave up, and returned to China. Thanks to our loss, this drama only has forty episodes, but there are many One episode, making them successful in China, is disrespectful to the people of the country.

What's more, are we still talking about 'escape'?If you lose, then leave. "

Teacher Zhang frowned slightly.

Li Suan then pointed to the 'City of Las Vegas'.

"Gambling is a very good subject, you can see people's hearts and human nature, but if you think about it carefully, the hero of our story has won at the gambling table, right?
Yes, he lost again later, because if you gamble for a long time, you will lose.

But does everyone at the gambling table have the idea of ​​leaving after winning?Our country has banned gambling for so many years, why do these rich and poor people prefer to go abroad to gamble?
Because they always have an idea, what if they win?
Through this play, we hope that our audience will see the protagonist, feel that the United States is not a good place to go, and feel that the casino is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.

But actually, what are we writing about?We are writing that the United States is a big casino. As long as you enter the casino, you have a chance to win. As long as you run fast, you can bring success out. "

Teacher Zhang was already frowning. She looked at the three labels Li Suan had left on the whiteboard, her mind spinning rapidly.

Yes, Li Suan just combined the unreliable feelings that Mr. Zhang felt into something that everyone could understand.

Li Suan saw that the heat was almost ready, and made his closing statement: "Mr. Zhang, the superficial reason why this show can't be aired is this, and there are deeper reasons. Shall we still talk?"

Teacher Zhang was in a daze.

Because 12 years is a particularly good time for screenwriters.

As long as the play is successful, she can get 50% of the manuscript fee based on an outline, and she can win the screenwriting contract by relying on her eloquence. Brazenly relying on fame to realize cash is swindling and abducting.

These days, top screenwriters can usually take on five to six jobs a year. Party A who is easy to talk, just throws away the children... That is, the manuscripts written by disciples like Li Suan are handed in. As for those who are not easy to talk to , as long as it drags on for another year or two, you will consider yourself unlucky.

But a screenwriter with a waist like Teacher Zhang can't do it. She has to write "Farewell" well, she has to write "Farewell" very well, because then there is a broad road in front of her.

Li Suan looked at Teacher Zhang's expression and knew the result.

The sugar-coated bullets of capitalism can always turn the role models of the world into whores, let alone artists?
Teacher Zhang, who made up his mind, looked at Li Suan, completely ignoring his own expression, like the gambler he described in his own pen.

"Ms. Li, I didn't offend you, did I?"

"Mr. Zhang, you are worrying too much. I just said it casually. If you want a better way, you should work harder. As for me, it's just because I am a screenwriter, so I don't want us to contribute and suffer."

"Do you want to sign it?"

This is on condition.

Li Suan said: "Mr. Zhang, I feel a little unwell recently, and I may not be able to write. Look, can you tear up the contract for me? Of course, I have no money to compensate you."

Teacher Zhang was taken aback when he heard this, as if he just remembered Li Suan's identity at this time. The other party was not a screenwriting teacher who was on the same level as him, but a screenwriting assistant everywhere.

However, Mr. Zhang never gets carried away. After all, Li can meet Director Yang. Although Director Yang is not a great movie director, he has won the best director of Huabiao and Magnolia. In the field of TV dramas, he can be regarded as a leader.

She said: "Of course, physical problems, everyone is the same. You don't have to worry about the contract, I will help you apply for a return ticket?"

"That's the best. You can see if it's accommodation... just pretend I didn't say anything."

Insatiable greed is Li Suan's little problem. Later, he relied on this little problem of earning a little more, and bought an imported car worth more than 50 yuan.

The smile on Teacher Zhang's face became stronger. She picked up the coffee and was about to take a sip, but suddenly she covered her stomach with one hand, her face was painful, and she couldn't even speak.

When Li Suan saw her like this, he knew what to do.

It's all instinct
　Newcomer, new book, needs everything
