China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 240 Going to the United States with Liu Xiaoli

After seeing Zhang Nanyi, Ning Hao immediately beamed with joy. He walked over and said, "Mr. Zhang, I finally see you. Seeing you is like seeing the sun.

You are my guide on the road of life. "

"Don't be poor, tell me if you have anything to do."

"That's it." Ning Hao rubbed his hands, "The filming of Green Grass is almost finished, and only the last two scenes are left. Unexpectedly, the film has run out.

I was so anxious that I had no choice but to shamelessly come back to you. "

When Ning Hao shoots green grass, the biggest cost is film. A roll of film costs about 1500 yuan, which only lasts three to four minutes.

If the crew didn't control it, it would easily cost 10 yuan to shoot in one day.

Zhang Nanyi said calmly: "No, it sounds awkward. I told you before the filming of the movie that the investment of 100 million will not be more.

Now that you have not controlled the cost budget, you can only solve it yourself.

Let’s start with the ugly words. The 100 million I invested accounted for all the profits of the movie. The money you invest later is of your own free will.

If you don't want to, the movie Green Grass will not be made, and the filmed materials will be taken back and sealed. "

Zhang Nanyi is not used to Ning Hao. Directors are like this. Once they have money and a boss, they will spend it randomly. In his previous life, Ning Hao could finish filming Green Grass with 40 yuan.

Now I have spent 100 million and still can't finish the shoot. It's obvious that my mentality has changed after I received the investment. I want to keep improving, but now it's over budget.

Ning Hao begged: "Mr. Zhang, I was wrong. Just this once, please help me."

Zhang Nanyi said expressionlessly: "I can't help you with this. You can make up for the shortfall yourself."

Zhang Nanyi would rather not make the movie Green Grass and lose all 100 million, than make such an opening. The investment should be as much as it needs. It is impossible to ask for money that exceeds the budget all the time.

Ning Hao felt the determination in Zhang Nanyi's words, and felt that he was out of luck this time.

The main reason was that Zhang Nanyi was relatively easy to talk to before, which gave Ning Hao the wrong impression. This time, he finally experienced Zhang Nanyi's harsh side.

Ning Hao said pleadingly: "Mr. Zhang, I was wrong this time. I didn't control the cost. Now I'm still short of 30 yuan.

You can deduct it from the director's fee for my next movie and treat it as an advance advance on my director's fee, okay?

One is not enough, two or three will do. "

According to Ning Hao's proposal, Zhang Nanyi will make money. When he comes up with crazy rocks, the director's fees will definitely be very high in the future.

If you deduct one or two more movies, it will definitely exceed 30.

But Zhang Nanyi didn't want to take advantage of this. This time he was discussing matters case by case. Ning Hao made a mistake and found a way to make up for it himself.

It is inappropriate to postpone the punishment for this matter to a later movie, and if the movie will be a big hit at the box office in the future, Ning Hao will feel resentful if he doesn't get a penny.

So Zhang Nanyi said: "I haven't decided where your next movie will be, so I can't give you an advance salary.

You can make up for it yourself. There are still two scenes left. If you save some money, you can definitely finish it within 10 yuan. "

Ning Hao understood what Zhang Nanyi meant, and his fate returned to a wonderful fulcrum. In the end, Ning Hao asked his wife for 10 yuan and spent his own money to finish filming the green grassland.

After Ning Hao left, Li Dashan hesitated and asked, "Are you being too cruel? For you, 10 yuan may be just a few meals.

I have gotten along with Ning Hao several times. He is quite talented, better than most directors I have seen.

He is a talented person, and if he is well trained, he may not be able to become Feng Pants of our company.

If you do this, will it make him feel cold and alienated from him in the future? "

Li Dashan has also been in contact with many directors, and his evaluation is a great affirmation of Ning Hao.

The talents of some people can indeed be seen at a glance, otherwise Ning Hao would not have been favored by Andy Lau's new star director program.

However, Li Dashan still has the same old problem, and his methods and mentality are not sharp enough.

Zhang Nanyi returned to the office, boiled water, and said: "I want to train a director who can create profits for the company, not bring back a father.

Invest 100 million, this is the agreement written in black and white on the contract.

Ning Hao overspent himself, so of course he had to make up for it himself, so that he could know the rules.

Ning Hao will definitely have emotions in a short period of time, but he can only adjust himself.

If he doesn't know how to adjust, it's his own problem. I'm the boss and investor, so why should I take care of his ideas?

You are too naive to ride a horse.

He also said that 10 yuan is enough for a few meals. Do you want to go to the street and see if there are many migrant workers now who have a monthly salary of 3000 yuan?

My money is no longer money, I can spend it as I please, and rich people are not fools. "

Li Dashan smiled coquettishly, "I'm not worried that Ning Hao will become popular in the future and leave the company because of this incident."

Zhang Nanyi shook his head: "It doesn't matter, I have already supported 100 million yuan for Ning Hao to shoot an independent film, and I will do my best.

If he doesn't recite this, that's his problem.

Besides, what retains talents is always interests, not favors.

Even if you support Mr. Ning Hao now, he will still leave if he becomes popular and has the opportunity to start his own business and make a lot of money.

My plan is very simple. The company signed an 8-year contract with him. We will cooperate well with him during these 8 years. When the contract expires, he can leave whenever he wants and he can come and go freely.

Of course, I welcome him if he wants to stay, but I will never support him.

Huayi's ecology of relying on Feng Pants is not healthy at all.Even Huayi itself is aware of this problem. They are also training other directors, focusing on supporting Lu Chuan and filming Hoh Xil.

There won’t be any Feng Pants in our company. We have money and projects, but are we still afraid that we can’t find a director? "

After looking at Li Dashan, Zhang Nanyi continued: "I will let you be the producer of Ning Hao's next movie. I am telling you these words to let you know the principles and not to spoil him."

Li Dashan nodded, and just as he was about to speak, Liu Xiaoli walked in. She said to Zhang Nanyi: "The itinerary has been arranged. Our flight will be at 8pm on August 1st, direct to New York, and will arrive at 7pm local time. Click to land left and right.”

I rested at home for the past two days and communicated with Liu Xiaoli. Liu Xiaoli saw that Zhang Nanyi didn't have much work during this period. She was also very busy with the preliminary affairs of the theater chain. She Tiantian was not at home, so she talked about the fund in the United States. It has been established for a year and a half, but Zhang Nanyi has not even gone to take a look. She invited Zhang Nanyi to come to the United States to have a look.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he was immediately excited. Of course he was very willing to take a casual trip with Sister Xiaoli to the distant lighthouse country.

So Liu Xiaoli applied for an expedited business visa for Zhang Nanyi and booked a flight.

When it comes to finding reasons, Miss Xiaoli is definitely the best at it.

She and Zhang Nanyi were obviously going to the United States for work, and no one could find fault. When Liu Yifei found out, she even told Zhang Nanyi to take good care of her mother.

Only Shu Chang was on the phone, sweetly wishing Zhang Nanyi a good time.

After talking about the itinerary, Liu Xiaoli said to Li Dashan: "It will take about a week for Nan Yi and I to go to the United States. During this time, please pay more attention to the company. If you have anything to discuss with Yan Yu and Nan Lu."

Li Dashan immediately said there was no problem. Zhang Nanyi made tea for the two of them and chatted for a while before returning to Mo Beiwu's small house to wait for her.

In the next four or five days, Zhang Nanyi mainly accompanied Mo Beiwu, giving her good guidance on Tai Chi skills and checking whether her yoga skills had fallen behind.

After deeply feeling that Mo Beiwu's Tai Chi and yoga had improved, Zhang Nanyi felt relieved.

During this period, he also took time to experience the style of Yan Danchen and He Qing, Chen Yuanyuan, and talked about life with Li Xiaoran, admiring the moon and tasting jade.

By August 8, Zhang Nanyi appeared at the Capital International Airport wearing a hat, mask and sunglasses.

He was pushing a large suitcase, which contained daily necessities for him and Liu Xiaoli.

Liu Xiaoli carried a small satchel and wore sunglasses, walking beside Zhang Nanyi with a smile on her face.

When she is with Zhang Nanyi, Sister Xiaoli will dress more boldly.

Today she wore a white tank top and a pair of sky blue denim trousers, which outlined her attractive and concave figure.

Because of Zhang Nanyi's massage, Sister Xiaoli has also improved her health. Coupled with the effect of the fairy sister, her current physical condition is better than that of a young girl in her twenties.

As I walked, the white halter top looked a bit too small, too tight, and dazzling my eyes.

Zhang Nanyi looked at the pretty Liu Xiaoli and suddenly remembered the game he played with Gao Yuanyuan at the airport. He smiled and said, "Sister Xiaoli, do you want to sit on the suitcase? I'll push you."

"No, I'm an old aunt, and it's too childish to play such a little girl's game."

Liu Xiaoli said she was evasive, but actually she was a little moved in her heart.

"Come out and play, don't be too reserved, and be in a good mood for traveling."

After Zhang Nanyi finished speaking, he directly grabbed Liu Xiaoli's soft and elastic waist and carried her onto the suitcase. He deliberately turned the suitcase around twice, making Liu Xiaoli jealous.

"You're going to die, you knocked me out."

Sister Xiaoli was just acting coquettishly. With her skills as a dancer, she could only spin a few circles, how could she get dizzy.

Zhang Nanyi laughed and kicked the suitcase directly. The suitcase began to slide forward, and a happy smile appeared on Liu Xiaoli's face.

Seeing that Liu Xiaoli was in a good mood, Zhang Nanyi thought this was a good start.

It's a pity that he was happy too early. After playing for a while, Liu Xiaoli took the initiative to come down. She still said: "There are many people at the airport, and if you are recognized, you will be in trouble.

We still focus on stability. "

Whether Zhang Nanyi's itinerary has been exposed, he is still wearing a disguise, so it is unlikely that he will be recognized.

But after Liu Xiaoli said so, Zhang Nanyi stopped playing around.

Liu Xiaoli bought the first-class cabin of Air China. After the two of them walked through the VIP channel and passed the security check, they stayed in the VIP lounge for a while and then boarded the plane smoothly.

Although Air China's large aircraft are not as luxurious as Emirates flights, the first-class facilities are pretty good. They are arranged in a 1-2-1 position, with a total of 12 seats in three rows.

The seats in each position are very wide and can be adjusted in angle. In addition to audio-visual entertainment equipment, there are also pajamas, toiletry bags and other supplies.

Pull up the partition, and it becomes an independent cubicle. The whole thing looks like a miniature hotel room.

Moreover, Air China maintains its own tradition. The flight attendants on international flights are generally more beautiful than those on domestic flights.

The two flight attendants who serve the first class cabin are the best of the best. They are slim and good-looking, and their service is also in place.

However, Zhang Nanyi was not very satisfied because he and Sister Xiaoli could not sit together. This alone was a bad review.

The stewardess obviously also knew Zhang Nanyi, a big star, so Zhang Nanyi had to follow the rules and not do what he wanted to do.

My trip with Sister Xiaoli left me with regrets on the plane.

Without the proper entertainment activities, Zhang Nanyi had no choice but to watch TV and magazines and play small games on the plane.

Time passed quickly, and I didn’t meet any celebrities on the plane this time.

At 9:10 pm local time, Zhang Nanyi landed at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport.

The person who came to pick her up was Ms. Zhou Wenqiong, Liu Xiaoli's cousin and Liu Yifei's cousin, who had also been an actress in China.
