This actor doesn't look like a good guy

After the meeting, Jiang Bai also got to know the singers who would be working together this time.

I made an appointment with Zhou Huajian to sit out together when we go to Taiwan Province in the future, and also agreed with Lin Junjie that we can collaborate on one or two songs in the future, or if Jiang Bai is filming a movie or TV series, ask him to write lyrics and music.

Prices can be discounted.

And Liu Genghong, because Liu Genghong and Zhou Jilun have a good relationship, they also made an appointment to get together more often in the future.

There is also Daolang. Jiang Bai actually likes Daolang's songs. They are down-to-earth and catchy. They are more suitable for appearing in comedies.

Dao Lang said that if Jiang Bai needs anything in the future, he can come over at any time. In addition, he also has a concert this year and would like to invite Jiang Bai to be a guest.

However, as soon as these words came out, some other singers also invited Jiang Bai to be a guest at their concerts.

"No problem, no problem. As long as the schedule can be adjusted by then, I will definitely go."

Jiang Bai is determined to develop into the music circle. After all, acting is good at singing. When singers develop to a certain level, most of them will move closer to actors, and when actors develop to a certain level, they will also release some songs to expand their circle.

After all, it is impossible for everyone to watch movies and TV series anytime and anywhere, but they can listen to music anytime and anywhere through MP3 and MP4.

Moreover, most actors have a strong desire to perform. Singing at a concert is also a kind of performance.

In a short time, Jiang Bai agreed to guest invitations from eight concerts.

Sun Yanzi, Zhou Huajian, Ren Xianqi, Chen Yixun, Lin Junjie, Pang Long, Hu Yanbin, Dao Lang.

"Now I don't have to worry about having nothing to do in the second half of the year. Even if I spend two days alone, one day of rehearsal and one day of singing, I can last more than half a month."

Just after chatting with everyone, Liu Huan suddenly found Jiang Bai.

At the beginning, I mentioned that some of the old actors Jiang Bai had met before had a good relationship with him. They had mentioned Jiang Bai before during dinner, saying that Jiang Bai was a pretty good young man who not only worked hard in filming, but was also very talented in music. .

But after chatting for a while, Liu Huan asked, "I heard they said you have a good drinking capacity?"

"No, no, it's all the seniors who praise me."

"Don't be modest. I don't have any other hobbies. One is singing and the other is drinking. How about it? Find a place to have some drinks tonight?
I just happened to call those old friends, and Lao Tan was in Yanjing recently. In addition, I also called Lao Liao and Teng Geer. "

"Okay, it's an honor for me to drink with these big brothers."

"Hahaha, okay, I'll find a place later and we can have a drink together, but you have to be prepared not to go back at night."

"No problem. I live alone now. It doesn't matter if I go back at night or not."

"That's good. You are still young. If you are already married, it will be hard to explain if you don't go back at night, but it doesn't matter to us old guys."

In this way, they made an appointment for a wine party. After returning, Jiang Bai went to Li Ronghao to chat about how to make this song better.

Because when it comes to modern pop music, Jiang Bai is still inferior to Li Ronghao.

Li Ronghao didn't do anything else in the afternoon. He just taught Jiang Bai in their recording studio all afternoon.

In the evening, according to the address sent by Liu Huan, Jiang Bai came to a hotel and entered the box directly. At this time, several people were already sitting here.

Tenggel was chatting with Liu Huan and greeted Jiang Bai with a smile.

Then Jiang Bai also sat down and joined in their conversation.

But as they chatted, Jiang Bai became somewhat interested in Tangel, a very rough-looking uncle, because from the other party's conversation, Jiang Bai felt that Tangel was not who he had always thought. He has a strong ethnic style, which is very interesting. Although his works are always full of vigor and full of strong prairie style, I feel that he is very lively.

Afterwards, Jiang Bai intentionally or unintentionally started talking about national songs, and soon Tenggel also praised Jiang Bai.

Because many young people today listen to love songs, and few people listen to these ethnic songs.

Jiang Bai, on the other hand, was very knowledgeable when it came to all kinds of music, and even had some knowledge of some of the special musical instruments on their grassland.

Of course, Jiang Bai's knowledge of this was also due to his adoptive father.

There was a time when my adoptive father didn't know where he could hear some folk music that would appeal to both refined and popular people, so he insisted on asking Jiang Bai to find him some folk music.

And Jiang Bai lived up to his expectations and hired many folk musicians, including those from foreign lands.

So Jiang Bai also learned a lot from him.

These include musical instruments such as the Huqin and the Matouqin.

In comparison, Jiang Bai is not that good at the current guitar, bass, piano, etc., but he has the foundation from the past and is familiar with it, so he can play it.

"Jiang Bai, if you have time, let's play together. My old gang is quite noisy on weekdays. Although we still sing songs like "Paradise" during performances, we also play some rock music in private. .”

"no problem!"

Jiang Bai likes to make friends. Having more friends makes life easier, especially friends with similar interests. It is actually very happy to get along with them.

After a while, other people arrived one after another, and after Tan Dun saw Jiang Bai, the first thing he said was congratulations, because Jiang Bai won the same Oscar music award as him.

"We haven't seen each other for a few years. Jiang Bai, have you already developed to this extent? Are you interested in playing some more songs and performing with me?"

"Of course there is."

Jiang Bai didn't know what was going on today. Everyone was inviting him to play music together.

That night, they started the dinner at seven o'clock, eating, drinking, and chatting, and they didn't disperse until 05:30 in the morning.

In the process, some drank beer and some drank beer, and wine bottles were placed all over the table.

I have to say that some old artists have a really good drinking capacity. They drink one cup after another, and in the end they even become more sober as they drink.

But after drinking until now, none of them could drive. Some took a taxi and went home directly, while the rest went directly to a nearby hotel to open a few rooms and stay there.

Jiang Bai took the initiative to pay for it, and there would be no harm in leaving a good impression on these seniors.

He slept until noon. When he got up and went out, he happened to meet Liu Huan again. As a result, Liu Huan couldn't help but drag Jiang Bai and the other seniors who had just woken up to the restaurant downstairs. With a big wave of his hand, he said he wanted to treat Have a meal.

But for him, if you want to eat, you must drink, so they drank a lot at noon.After drinking, they went back to the hotel and slept until night. Liu Huan asked them to go out for a drink again. After drinking, it was 02:30 in the morning again, but this time the others said they didn't want to stay anymore.

After three heavy drinks in a row, they were afraid that if they stayed here for one night, Liu Huan would continue to drink with them the next day.

One by one, they had to take a taxi back even at night.

Liu Huan was a little helpless when he saw this, and finally had to let him go.

But Jiang Bai also formed a deep friendship with these seniors through these few drinks.

At least when these people left, each of them said that if Jiang Bai needs actors or song writers in the future, just say hello to them directly, and the price can be easily negotiated.

If the script is good, it’s not impossible to do it without money.

So Jiang Bai wrote down what these people said one by one, so that he would always need it in the future.

After returning, Jiang Bai's life returned to its old state.

There is still more than a month until the dubbing of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit. Jiang Bai still accepts interviews from time to time, goes out to shoot magazine covers, and occasionally shoots advertisements.

Some TV stations also invited Jiang Bai to shoot public service announcements, and Jiang Bai also agreed.

During this period of time, "Unfortunate" was finally released from theaters. In two months, the final box office was 4 million, which was exactly the same as "Crazy Stone".

"Xiao Tian, ​​the script is well written this time, and the subject matter is quite good. I will seize the time to work on the next one and strike while the iron is hot. If possible, I will write out the script within the next year or two, and then hold a meeting to revise it."

Having achieved such results, Tian Yusheng was also very happy: "Okay, Brother Jiang, I already have an idea for the next step. I will write an outline in the next few days, and then show it to you and Brother Zhao. If there is no problem, I will start." Write a script, and if something doesn’t work, I’ll change it.”

"Okay, just look at it and believe in yourself. Being able to write "People on the Road" has already proven your ability. If the subsequent scripts are good, the company will vigorously promote them for you and strive to train you to become one of us. The ace screenwriter in the company.”

"Okay, Jiang Ge."

Tian Yusheng is full of energy at the moment.

But a few days later, when Tian Yusheng handed in the outline that he had worked up all night, Zhao Zhe, Jiang Bai, Jiang Wen, and Ning Hao didn't feel so good after reading it.

"This won't work, Xiaoda. This series is essentially a road movie, but the previous theme was Spring Festival travel, and this theme became what happened to college students on their way to school.

Although it is still a low-cost production, it is estimated that it can be filmed for 400 to 400 million yuan, but from our perspective, even if it is completed for [-] to [-] million yuan, by the time we star in this movie, we will only be able to make a return at most.

If it is a literary film, you can consider not having to recoup the cost, but this is definitely not possible for a commercial film like this. "

Tian Yusheng was a little ashamed when she heard this.

"Then I can change it when I go back?"

"Well, think about it again. In fact, you don't have to pursue too small a cost. As long as the script is good, the company can spend more money. If the company can't turn around, I can personally invest, so don't think too much. Just follow the rules and regulations and use your imagination to write.”

"Okay, Brother Jiang, I'll think about it when I go back."

"Ah."

After the meeting, Jiang Bai sighed. It's not that Tian Yusheng has no talent, but the success of "The Road" made him a little too eager to pursue a low-cost, high-return road comedy. Instead, he neglected the movie itself. plot.

There is actually not much difference between returning home during the Spring Festival and returning to school at the beginning of school.

However, a few days later, Jiang Bai once again received news about the sequel to "Journey on the Road", but instead of Tian Yusheng rewriting the outline, Xu Zheng came to find it.

Xu Zheng took the initiative to find Jiang Bai and said that he wanted to treat Jiang Bai to a meal. It was nominally to thank Jiang Bai for paying for those movies and making him famous again. However, when Jiang Bai heard this, he knew that the other party must have something. Seek it from yourself.

It’s been almost two years since the filming of “No Man’s Land” was completed, so I’m giving thanks at this time, which is a bit late.

Moreover, he had just talked with Zhao Zhe before. Xu Zheng would definitely not be content with mediocrity. His future development would definitely be to open his own company or set up a studio. He would not be willing to stay in any company and work for others.

But when they arrived, Jiang Bai and Zhao Zhe pretended not to know about it, and they followed Xu Zheng's conversation.

It wasn't until more than half an hour later that Xu Zheng revealed the purpose of his trip.

"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Zhao, even though I am an actor now, I actually still want to be a director. It is not interesting to be an actor all the time. I always play a role in other people's stories, so I have the idea to be a director myself and take selfies. Directing a play by myself.”

When Jiang Bai heard this, it turned out to be true.

As expected, Xu Zheng came here to invest. Although Jiang Bai rarely invests in outside movies, if there is a good opportunity, it is not a bad idea to invest.

"Brother Xu, what you said is ridiculous. What is our relationship? If you want to make a movie, then I will definitely support it. I wonder if you have finished the script? If the script is good, how much will it cost, Brother Xu?" Just tell me the number. If there are no actors, my company can provide them for you."

Xu Zheng smiled: "I haven't finished the script yet. I just have this idea at the moment. I want to invite you two to dinner this time. There are two things in total. The first is to get some investment from you, because I still want to do this subject. It's very promising. The chances of making money are very high. After all, you have led me before, so if there is a chance to make money now, I will definitely call my brothers together.

But the second thing is related to the script. "

"It's related to the script. Could it be that Brother Xu, you want to borrow some screenwriters from our company?"

"Absolutely, but mainly because the movie I wanted to make is actually the sequel to Lost on the Road."

"Ah?" Zhao Zhe was stunned.

Because the company is currently working on this script, I didn’t expect Xu Zheng to want to film it too.

"It's like this. After I finished filming "The Man on the Road", I felt that this subject matter was actually very suitable for me. I had the idea of ​​​​making a sequel at that time, but the specific scenes and main lines were still unclear. I don’t have a clue. I have been thinking about it during this time and finally came up with an excellent theme. But, after all, this IP belongs to you, so I wanted to come to you to authorize it. But don’t worry, since I found it If I leave you, then this movie will be considered a collaboration between us, and I have already thought about the main actors. In addition to me, there will also be Bao Qiang and Huang Bo."

Hearing this, Jiang Bai and Zhao Zhe exchanged glances, and they quickly understood the meaning in each other's eyes.

But Zhao Zhe has to say the next words.

"Lao Xu, we have worked together many times, and we know everything about it. To be honest, we are also planning a script for this IP recently. We have almost written it. We are just waiting for the things at hand to be finished before we start filming. And even if we film it, you will definitely be the protagonist, but what you said now conflicts with our plan. It is impossible to make two sequels, don't you think?
So otherwise, tell me your idea first. If it’s good, then come back to our place for a meeting and we’ll discuss the next cooperation. If our idea is better, then don’t shoot you either. That’s it, just come and take pictures of us when the time comes.

In addition, I think directing is easy to handle. If your script is better, you can be the director, and then let our Xiao Yang be your assistant director. After all, young people should be given some opportunities to learn.

If our company is good at this, how about you come over and be an assistant director? "(End of chapter)
