The leisurely life of rebirth
Chapter 577 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey
Got off the plane.
Zhou You called Hao Jian.
After the fight, Hao Jian understood: Brother You, this is a new love.
Or my classmate.
Isn’t this a bit embarrassing?
You definitely can’t say this over the phone: “No problem, Brother You, absolutely no problem, I’ll take care of it.”
What's so difficult about this.
It is difficult to travel around.
For Hao Jian, it was too simple. It was a comedy, so all he needed to do was create a contrast.
Comrade Lao Ma, everyone can see that it is indeed a bit difficult for you to play a beautiful woman. Just be a comedy master when the time comes.
Wang Duoyu is so rich, but he can't expect some beautiful women.
Isn't this the conflict?
Seeing that Zhou You had arranged everything in front of her, Tao Hui felt satisfied both physically and mentally.
No wonder all the women in the entertainment industry want to pounce on him and never leave.
The price/performance ratio is very high.
With Hao Jian as the team leader, as long as there are no major problems, they will become famous again.
I declined Zhou You's offer of a ride and went straight to the crew in a taxi. I would leave after the filming was over, or I would see how to solve the problem.
This is also to keep a low profile.
Everyone knows that Zhou You is low-key.
Perhaps many people can guess who are the women who travel around.
However, these women in the entertainment industry have never done anything under the banner of traveling, and no one would do such a thing.
It’s not like there aren’t some people who just flirt with each other for a while, but how many of them end up in long-term relationships?
Tao Hui, this is someone with the potential for a long-term relationship, so we must be cautious.
Zhou You is not being pretentious. Wang Tao is still waiting over there. Maybe there will be another storm.
The crew over there was also waiting for Tao Hui's arrival. If it were in the past, everyone might have been polite to her, after all, she became famous earlier.
Nowadays, the entertainment industry is very realistic.
So what if you become famous early? You will still be washed ashore by the waves behind you.
Director Liu Kai, who still has a say in this small crew, was a little angry when he saw that the second female lead hadn't shown up yet:
"Calling and urging, showing no professionalism at all."
Others all praised him: "Yes, really, I thought it was in the past, acting like a big shot."
In fact, the protagonist hasn’t arrived yet, and the appointment is for tomorrow.
Just to show authority, they wanted to find a chicken to kill, which is also a common routine of the crew.
After much thought, Tao Hui is the most suitable.
It has fame but a weak background and is now on the decline.
perfect!
Otherwise, as a director who is not that famous, he may not be able to control the situation.
When Tao Hui arrived at the crew, she found that the atmosphere was a little strange and solemn.
Did the filming go wrong or did something unexpected happen?
As soon as I got to the door, I heard someone say, "Teacher Tao, hurry over, the director is angry, talking about being a big shot and not coming in."
"Are you acting like a big shot? It's not even the agreed time yet." Tao Hui was a little puzzled.
Why should a small crew act like a big shot? They haven't done that in all these years.
But now that I'm here, I must go and meet the director.
Put your luggage at the front desk first, and then you will reach the scene.
"Hello, Director Liu, sorry for being late." Tao Hui straightened her posture.
When Liu Kai saw Tao Hui, his face immediately became stern. After hearing Tao Hui admit her fault, he became more confident:
"Teacher Tao, why are you here so late? We're going to start shooting tomorrow and we haven't prepared anything yet. With this attitude, how can we shoot a good TV series?"
"It's not the same as before. We shoot TV series and movies differently. Teacher Tao may not be used to it yet, but he has to learn to adapt gradually."
He started to speak in a sarcastic tone, mocking his own downfall. He used to make movies but now he has fallen to making TV series, so he has to behave himself.
Tao Hui nodded. She had heard this many times in the past few years and she was not unfamiliar with industry practices.
It's just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. He is the most suitable person for the entire crew.
The heroine is a favorite, you can't afford to offend her.
Just as I opened my mouth to apologize, the phone rang.
When he saw it was a call from Hao Jian, he quickly picked up the phone. In comparison, this call was more important.
Liu Kai's thin face became even angrier. He couldn't tolerate the fact that someone dared to answer the phone in front of him, especially when he was furious.
Open your mouth and continue to roar.
Unexpectedly, Tao Hui uttered: "Hao Jian."
Just these two words made him hold back what he was about to say.
Everyone in the industry knows Hao Jian, a rising star who is well-known in his own right and has starred in high-grossing movies.
The most important thing is that he has a very good relationship with the bigwigs in the industry and is one of the people who are highly praised.
"Hui, if you have something to say, just tell me directly. Why bother Brother You? Brother You just called me. I also urgently added a minor role. After it was finalized, I called you."
"When are you free? Come and make a guest appearance."
Tao Hui smiled and said, "Xiao Jian, you are a big star now, I dare not bother you directly, the guest role will not affect the overall effect, I heard that the filming is about to be completed."
"It has no impact, no impact at all. Your coming is the icing on the cake, it will make it even better." Hao Jian smiled with wrinkles all over his face and his fangs showing.
The people around could hardly bear to watch it anymore, this expression was too flattering.
"Also, a new movie is already in preparation. I heard you're filming a TV series. Will you be able to make it in time?"
Tao Hui glanced at Liu Kai and thought for a moment: "It should be possible. Director Liu here is very skilled and should not delay the progress."
"That's fine. In the next movie, you will be the second female lead and play the role with Lao Ma. Then we will be working together again." Hao Jian also finalized the matter first.
Otherwise, I would feel unsure and every move would require coordination.
The two then briefly chatted about recent developments before hanging up the phone.
Liu Kai's face kept changing, and his angry expression slowly calmed down. Although he couldn't hear what the other party said, he could roughly guess what Tao Hui was going to do from her.
He asked hesitantly, "Did Mr. Hao invite you to act in a movie?"
Tao Hui nodded: "Yes, it's just a guest role, not many scenes."
When Liu Kai heard this, he thought it was another character from Avatar.
I felt confident again. It was just a small guest role and it wouldn't make any big waves.
He immediately said seriously, "That can't delay our filming, otherwise you'll have to explain to the investors."
"No problem. It definitely won't delay our progress. I have another movie coming up, also with Hao Jian. I'm the second female lead, so time is tight. However, as long as we progress normally, there shouldn't be any problems."
Tao Hui took precautions in advance.
When shooting this kind of TV series, accidents often happen, which slows down the progress.
Liu Kai's face changed.
This is really taking advantage of me. I'm starting to get mad at you.
In disguise, I urge myself to make progress.
I’m not famous yet. Let’s wait until I become famous.
His face immediately turned serious, and he continued to rage: "Teacher Tao, just do the things in front of you first. People should not aim too high, but should be down-to-earth."
"No one knows what the future will be like!" Tao Hui smiled and answered: her future is bright.
But then the phone rang again.
Seeing that it was Wang Baoqiang, he quickly picked up the phone: "Hello, Brother Baoqiang."
Liu Kai was so angry today, he felt very uncomfortable. He originally wanted to establish his authority, but now it was all in vain, as the assistant director and other crew members were standing next to him.
As for what happened today, it won’t be long before the news spreads throughout the entire crew.
Wang Baoqiang got into trouble, but his reputation hasn't collapsed yet. The movie still has appeal, and the new movie is about to end.
"Hey, don't call me brother. Brother You just told me that our movie is almost over, so we need to go to Yangcheng for some scenery, and I'll give you a cameo role. I guess you'll be in Yangcheng during this time, right?"
Tao Hui nodded: "Yes, it should be. This TV series will probably take a few months to finish."
"Okay, then it's settled." Wang Baoqiang said quickly and hung up.
Zhou You has finally arranged something, so he must do it properly.
I can only say that Brother You is still more comfortable.
Do whatever you want, how nice.
Chengcai just stood there silently, doing things in a low-key manner. Who would make so much noise every day for no reason?
Liu Kai's chest kept rising and falling, and it was obvious that he was holding his breath.
Seeing the other party answering the phone one after another in front of me, I was so angry. No matter what, I must calm down the situation today.
No one can do it, otherwise how will this crew survive?
Just open your mouth and prepare to speak.
But then I heard the phone ringing again.
He said directly: "If you want to answer the phone, go out and answer it. If you keep going on like this, just leave the crew."
Tao Hui's expression did not change. She waved her hand and put the phone in front of her to indicate that it was not her phone ringing.
Liu Kai glanced around and saw that everyone was looking at their phones.
The result is neither.
At this time, the person next to him couldn't help but remind him: "Director, it seems that your phone is ringing."
Liu Kai became even angrier, feeling depressed that he had made things worse.
I took the phone and didn’t want to answer it, but then I saw it was a call from the investor.
His face changed, and he stood up immediately, smiling, leaning his head forward, and bending his waist.
"Boss Wang, I'm not busy. It's okay. I'm in a meeting right now."
"Okay, okay, no problem."
"Don't worry, don't worry, for sure, for sure."
In less than a minute, the call ended.
Liu Kai wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Look at Tao Hui across from her, what the hell, if you have connections in the entertainment industry, everyone would speak out, but you are the only one hiding it, ready to hurt others, right?
I thought this in my heart, but I didn't dare say it out loud.
While the smile on his face had not yet disappeared, he said to Tao Hui:
"Oh, really, Teacher Tao came so early, but the other two haven't arrived yet. This is such a bad atmosphere."
"Next, we will shoot Teacher Tao's scenes first. We can't let the progress of the entire project be delayed because of some people's scenes."
Then the whole style of painting changed.
Everyone present was used to it.
It seems that the director has hit a wall. Adjusting to changing one's stance according to circumstances is the most basic skill.
Tao Hui was still a little tired, so she didn't say much and went to the hotel to rest.
Lying on the bed, I sent a message to Zhou You: "Brother You, have you asked someone to contact our crew?"
Zhou You has already arrived at the company.
On the way there, I asked casually and found out that the small crew was invested by Penguin, which was just a matter of words.
"Yeah, I just mentioned it."
Zhou You knew that in this society, it was very normal to flatter the powerful and bully the weak, especially in the entertainment industry, where it was even more blatant.
Maybe you will become famous in the future, but you can't avoid being bullied now.
"Thank you, Brother You." Tao Hui smiled. It felt good to have someone protecting her.
Zhou You felt refreshed: "It's okay, go to bed early, I'll come to see you when I have time."
I've already said hello, so I'll go visit him after get off work.
Wang Tao was more eager than ever to see Zhou You coming.
They really don't care about anything. They haven't distributed any dividends for all these years, but they have no complaints and have even given us a lot of help.
Advertising, financial support, and channel support.
The most important thing is that I rarely object to the decisions I make.
I didn’t feel much at first, but after interacting with other investors more, I realized how lucky I was to meet an investor like Zhou You.
Wang Tao also has a very tough temper.
"Brother You, do you want us to go public?" Wang Tao asked tentatively. They had never talked about this topic before.
Zhou You leaned on the sofa and looked at his office. There wasn't much special about it.
Well, there is nothing worth learning.
"It doesn't matter. If you want to go public, then go public. If you don't want to, forget it."
"Anyway, the dividends will be distributed soon, and I can see the return of money. In fact, even if you go public, I probably won't sell it."
"I have more money than I can spend right now, so there's no point in selling it and keeping the money in my pocket."
Wang Tao was sitting opposite Zhou You, wearing round-frame glasses. When he heard Zhou You say that, he was really smiling.
He likes investors who can do anything the most.
However, he also knew that Zhou You's success meant that his company was successful, but its scale was not very large at present.
It is also known that Zhou You has made a lot of money in the entertainment industry.
He is no longer the small investor at the beginning.
"Brother You is still so domineering. I don't really want much money. It just so happens that we are also vigorously developing new technologies."
"The categories are still a bit limited, and the market potential is not great. We would also like to get involved in the consumer, agricultural, and military fields."
"We are still full of confidence in the future and hope to make some changes to the present."
Wang Tao became more and more excited as he spoke, but his excitement about making money had actually passed.
All that's left is the excitement of how the world is changing.
"We are developing a device that can be worn on the eyes for real-time viewing, allowing people to experience the feeling of being in the air."
"There was also the time when I went mountain climbing and saw how hard the porters worked. There were also many people working in the field, and it was very troublesome to transport supplies."
“So we are also developing large drones to solve problems in our daily lives.”
"Also, in foreign countries, small planes are used to spray pesticides. In China, we can also use drones for remote control."
The more I talked, the more excited I became. I wasn't confused at all.
The world of drones is so interesting, with endless application scenarios waiting to be developed.
If this goes public, it will be restricted by others and will not be able to develop projects that are not profitable in the short term.
Therefore, if you can avoid going public, then don’t go public.
As long as you can make money, I believe no one will say anything. (End of this chapter)
