This actor doesn't look like a good guy

Chapter 160

When I go back, I still take the train.

Jiang Bai now feels that sitting on this kind of high-end soft sleeper is also quite interesting, at least he can have a companion on the road, which is not boring, but not too noisy.

But on the second morning on the train, he was communicating with Su Rou, but at this moment he suddenly received a call from Wang Baoqiang.

"Hey, Baoqiang, what's the matter?"

"Brother, I want to tell you something."

Jiang Bai felt a little sad when he heard Wang Baoqiang's voice on the phone, thinking that the other party had encountered some difficulties: "What's the matter? Do you need money? How much? Don't be shy to ask, although I don't have many now, but I can It can help you turn around."

Baoqiang followed behind him all day long, and if something happened to him, he would still help if he could.

"It's not the money, it's the movie I made before."

"What happened to the movie?"

"That movie hasn't passed the review. I asked Director Li, and he said that he failed to pass the submission several times, and now he doesn't plan to go in."

"I can't pass the trial." Jiang Bai sighed, "Actually, it's normal. It's normal that this kind of realistic subject matter can't pass the trial. Baoqiang, don't be sad. Anyway, after you finish acting in this movie, don't you get paid? "

After speaking, Jiang Bai patted Su Rou on the head, this little girl played tricks while she was on the phone, no big or small.

"That being said, it's still sad that the first leading male movie I made in my life couldn't be released. Although I don't want people I know to see me shoot that kind of scene, but now I always feel that It's not a taste..."

"Well, there is no way around this, but what is Director Li's plan going forward? If it can't be shown in China, you can consider going abroad. The censorship outside is a little looser, and maybe you can sell it outside."

"really?"

"Of course, that's how many directors operate. I don't know if you've heard of Jiang Wen. I came to XJ this time to co-produce a movie with him. He had a movie that couldn't be released in China, so he went directly to the Cannes Awards. Yes, I won several awards in the end, but the consequence was that I was banned from being a director and filming for five years after I came back.”

"It's so troublesome, so I still won't talk to Director Li." Wang Baoqiang heard that Jiang Wen took the film to a foreign country for awards, and he would be punished when he came back, so he immediately stopped suggesting to Director Li.

"It's okay, let's talk about it, anyway, I feel that even if you don't say it, he will probably do it."

"Then I don't need to talk about it. When the time comes, Director Li can do whatever he wants, regardless of domestic or foreign countries. Anyway, I feel good if it can be screened. It's not a waste of time."

Jiang Bai smiled: "Your boy is quite pursuing, that's all, that's all, is there anything else?"

"No more, Brother Jiang, I just want to tell you about this."

"Okay, that's it for now. I'm not very good on the train. I can hear it sometimes, but I can't hear it sometimes. I have to guess what I'm talking about."

"Okay bro, then I won't bother you for now."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Bai started to punish Su Rou for being dishonest just now.

He took the train for another four hours, but this time it was not Zhao Zhe who picked him up when he arrived at the station. After getting on the train, Jiang Bai realized that Huang Bo was actually driving.

"Brother Bo, why are you here today, where is Brother Zhao?"

"Old Zhao, he's out today and won't be back for a while, so I'm here."

"Alright, how is Brother Bo?"

"It's nothing lately. Brother Zhao got me a few supporting roles, but now I'm waiting for Director Ning's new film. He said that when he wrote it, he wrote it with me as the protagonist."

Jiang Bai listened with joy: "The relationship is good, Brother Bo, I think you have the potential to be the protagonist, and you must be popular when the time comes."

"Haha, it's hard to say, just like me, where can the fire go? Now everyone likes good-looking people."

"That's not necessarily the case. People who like good looks are superficial people. People with real connotations look at the inside, which is the interesting soul."

"Then isn't that what I am? My soul thief is interesting."

"Then Boge deserves your fire."

As for Su Rou, who sat in the back row, she only exchanged a few words with them, and the rest of the time was very quiet.

She just watched Jiang Bai chatting with people like this, and felt that Jiang Bai like this was also very handsome.

Huang Bo sent Jiang Bai home and left again. After arriving home, Jiang Bai packed up his things first, and Su Rou helped Jiang Bai take out all the clothes he had worn during this time and wash them off.

After staying here for a while, I went home.

Although she also wanted to stay here for a while, she just came back and she had some things to deal with. This time she went out for a month, and she needed to go back and pay the rent to the housemate she shared with her roommate.

Zhao Zhe came directly to Jiang Bai's house in the afternoon.

"Jiang Bai, during this period of time, I will take care of your next things. First of all, the contract for a pair of embroidered shoes on Director Xu's side has been signed by you. I didn't ask for much, so I gave a friendly price, and Director Xu readily agreed, and then the contract with The Matrix was also negotiated for you. The content is still what I said before. Look, just don't teach them the real thing.

In the morning, I went to talk with Yanjing TV Station again. The conquest you sold to them has been scheduled to premiere at midnight on their TV station at the end of this month. This is really not a prime time, there is no way.

The rest is that you sign the contract with The Matrix, and then you have to handle the visas yourself. I will go there with you at that time, but this matter is not so urgent. A pair of embroidered shoes was also photographed in Yanjing. Just make time to do it early. "

Jiang Bai nodded: "Thank you, Brother Zhao."

Although the conquest of this TV series did not go through the company and belonged to Jiang Bai's own investment, Zhao Zhe still helped him run around, and Jiang Bai also planned to give the other party some money for his hard work.

But after talking about it, Jiang Bai talked about Jiang Wen's side.

"Brother Zhao, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you."

"What's the matter? Good or bad?"

"It's good for the company, but not necessarily for you."

"What is it?"

"Isn't Jiang Wen also on the set when I went to film Heroes of Heaven and Earth this time, and then I chatted with him. After the chat, I found out that he is quite interested in coming to our company."

Zhao Zhe couldn't help being overjoyed after hearing this: "This is a great thing. Who is Jiang Wen? It is condescending to come to our company. He is a proper son of a big courtyard. He also took a few film stars, who came to our company to put gold on our company's signboard, what conditions does he have, if he can, he must be brought here even if he sells everything."

"Brother Zhao, it's not enough to sell the pot and sell the iron, but his condition is to take a part of the company's shares."

Afterwards, Jiang Bai talked about the content of their drinking and betting that day: "Brother Zhao, this is the condition. You need to contribute 10% of the shares, and I need to contribute 5%."

Zhao Zhe's smile disappeared when he heard this.

Because he now occupies 51% of the company's shares, Jiang Bai holds 49%, but once he takes out 10%, only 41% is left, and Jiang Bai takes out 5%, and there is still 44% left .

Then let Jiang Wen hold 15%, so that he became the second shareholder of the company, and Jiang Bai became the boss.

Thinking of this, he sat down and began to meditate. Letting Jiang Wen sign into the company is indeed very beneficial to the company. Now basically only Jiang Bai and Ning Hao can make money in the company.

As a director, Ning Hao, although talented, may not be able to make a movie in the future, so the most stable source of income is Jiang Bai.

But even if he gave Jiang Bai shares before, it was just to keep Jiang Bai firmly in the company.

He wanted to make money, he also wanted to make his own movie, he also wanted to fill the company with talents, and he wanted Jiang Wen to sign in the company, but in doing so, he was bound to lose the dominance of the company.

And he felt that he understood Jiang Bai's character, knowing that since Jiang Bai said so, it meant that Jiang Bai wanted to get the most shares in the company.

For a moment, Zhao Zhe felt that his mood was a little messy.

"Jiang Bai, is this urgent?"

"No rush, Brother Zhao."

"Then I'll go back and think about it."

"Alright Brother Zhao." Jiang Bai nodded.

But after finishing speaking, Zhao Zhe asked again: "Jiang Bai, we have been working together for so long, and I have always regarded you as a brother, so I don't want us two to break up because of money in the end, so I will say something Let me ask you directly, that is, if Jiang Wen fails to sign with our company this time, will you leave when the contract expires in the future?"

Hearing these words, Jiang Bai knew that Zhao Zhe really had no choice. According to the other party, he definitely wanted to sign Jiang Wen again, and also wanted to take the leadership of the company, but the other party's ambitions and his own ambitions were different. Conflict, in which case there must be one person who needs to give in.

If everyone does not make concessions, the result can only be parting ways.

"Brother Zhao, I know you are very kind to me, and you have helped me a lot these years, but no matter what, I will definitely have to start my own company in the future. To be honest, although I really want Jiang Wen to sign to our company , but compared to him, I still want to work with you more."

Jiang Bai's words were a little tactful, but Zhao Zhe still understood.

Because my place is indeed a small temple, with Jiang Bai's current worth, he can live a very good life even if he sets up his own family after going out, so he can directly express his willingness to stay here.

In the remaining two years of the contract, I still have to put more resources on Jiang Bai, and Jiang Bai can also choose not to renew the contract when the contract expires, whether it is cashing out the company's shares People still continue to hold it, which will not prevent Jiang Bai from going to other companies or doing it on his own.

At that time, if Jiang Bai didn't take these people away from the company, it would be considered as a face.

But Jiang Bai still chooses to confess to himself, which means that Jiang Bai still misses his friendship.

Maybe Jiang Bai will continue to sign with the company after the five-year period expires, but by then it will not be five years, it is estimated that it will be three years at most.

Working for another three years is also Jiang Bai's last reward for himself.

He didn't blame Jiang Bai for doing this, if it were him, he would do the same.

There are hundreds of actors graduating from major film and drama schools across the country every year, and tens of thousands of ensemble performers in Hengdian, Beijing Film and Television Base and major film and television bases every year.

And there are countless talented actors waiting to be discovered among the people, but no matter how many people there are, there is only one Jiang Bai.

"I'll go back and think about it."

Finally Zhao Zhe said.

"Okay Brother Zhao, don't be too burdened. Even if I really want to leave in the future, I will definitely bring you a few more people who can fight. Just like what you said just now, I don't want the two of us The two broke up because of this kind of thing, no matter what happens in the future, I hope that the two of us will be good buddies and brothers."

"En." Zhao Zhe nodded heavily, and then left.

In fact, Jiang Bai is indeed very grateful to Zhao Zhe, and has already treated him as a brother.

But even if Jiang Bai regards Zhao Zhe as his brother, he cannot be under the opponent's hands for the rest of his life.

In the next few days, Zhao Zhe didn't reply. Even if everyone met, it was tacitly understood that no one mentioned this matter.

Before officially signing the contract, Jiang Bai also personally communicated with the crew of The Matrix and put forward a few requirements.

That is, there cannot be any humiliating content in the play, and all related scripts must be changed, and he must wear a Tang suit in the play, otherwise he has the right to refuse to act.

"No problem, we can accept all of these, and you can get a part of our shares after you play the role. In the future, as long as The Matrix has profits, then you can get dividends."

"Yes." Jiang Bai said.

"Also, we need to reconfirm the remaining important terms with you, Mr. Jiang, that is, the live-action shooting on our side is for three months, and you need to wear motion capture equipment for the remaining six months. Your Chinese martial arts are all on display."

"I can accept this, but what I need to tell you here is that we have a lot of martial arts in China, and it is impossible for me to show you all of them. You show eighteen sets of martial arts here, on average three sets a month, how about it?"

"Mr. Jiang, [-] sets are too few. As far as we know, there are more than a hundred kinds of Chinese Kung Fu, and we paid you several million dollars, plus subsequent dividends, far exceeding the value of [-] sets of Chinese Kung Fu. So our side is more inclined that you can show more, such as at least fifty sets."

"Sir, you are embarrassing me. You have to know that even if we are learning martial arts, most of us spend our entire lives proficient in one or two, because each set of martial arts may generate hundreds of moves. Come on, it’s too difficult for you to let me show a set in about three days on average, unless I don’t eat, drink, or sleep. 24 sets are my limit, because the kung fu I’m after is perfection, not If you are proficient, you can fight."

"Can you have more?"

"Not much more, or you can ask Director Yuan Heping if you can use this money to pass on so many things to you."

"Okay, then 24 sets. I will send a supplementary contract later. I am looking forward to our cooperation this time."

"I am also looking forward to it, and hope to have a pleasant cooperation with you."

　Don’t rush, don’t rush, it’s really not the author’s brush. It’s hard for me to get [-] in my pocket. It’s indeed a bestseller. The first thing is that this book doesn’t deserve it, because the author himself thinks so, and the editor also asked about the situation, boss How about you come out and say something
