Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 365 If you eat two bowls of noodles, I will pay for one bowl!

A fight?
And Chen Kun?
Who?
I?
Huang Xiaoming moved his lips but didn't say anything.

If you think about it carefully, although he and Chen Kun have always been in competition since their student days, this relationship has been smoothly continued in their life and career since then.

But it seems that they have never performed on the same stage before.

Especially when both of them are the protagonists.

only……

Huang Xiaoming habitually thinks of defeat before winning. Considering Chen Kun's current state, wouldn't it be embarrassing if he really failed in acting?
Huang Xiaoming believed that he was just preparing for a rainy day and was not being cowardly, nor did he think that he was less capable than Chen Kun.

"Director Zhou, I think..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhou Mo interrupted him.

"By the way, Brother Xiaoming, I haven't finished yet. I won't participate in the filming of that movie, but I will provide the script. After the movie is released, our company will only take the profits and will not prevent the actors from striving for honors in the future."

Huang Xiaoming's heart moved.

"Director Zhou, what you mean is..."

"Yes, this film can be considered for domestic awards."

Huang Xiaoming could no longer remain calm.

Can participate in the awards.

This is really great news.

Shanhe Company has always been synonymous with high output and high quality, but what has always been a regret for others is that Shanhe Company’s films do not participate in the nomination for domestic film awards.

Huang Xiaoming suddenly remembered a rumor.

According to gossip, because the domestic Golden Rooster Awards changed the rules a few years ago, films with an investment of 33 million yuan are not allowed to participate in the main competition unit, and the cost of "Love Is Not Blind" was just over million yuan, so Director Zhou simply decided not to participate in any film awards selection anymore.

Huang Xiaoming thought this reason was ridiculous.

How could Director Zhou be such a stingy person!

The emperor knew that there would definitely be no problem with Director Zhou's appearance, and he couldn't help but start to make excuses for Zhou Mo.

Thinking of this, Huang Xiaoming felt a little itchy in his throat.

"Then Director Zhou, what is the genre of your film?"

"It's an art film, but it contains certain commercial attributes." Zhou Mo looked at Huang Xiaoming's conflicted expression with a smile in his eyes.

Little guy, I can’t handle you.

He remembered that there was a very apt comment about Huang Xiaoming on the Internet, which was called "the two natures of grandfather and grandson."

To say that the leader is in a high-handed state, he is either acting like a big shot or has a very low attitude.

Therefore, when dealing with Huang Xiaoming, it is enough to just force him.

People are forced out.

As long as you put enough pressure on Huang Xiaoming, he will immediately create a miracle for you.

"So, Brother Xiaoming, have you thought about it? If it really doesn't work, then I'll just find someone else. I don't need to ask Brother Kun, he will definitely agree."

As expected, Huang Xiaoming shouted immediately after hearing this: "No, Director Zhou, who said I don't agree? I agree, I absolutely agree!
Director Zhou, I'm not bragging to you, who else but me can make this movie? "

Zhou Mo nodded with a smile.

"That's fine."

After Huang Xiaoming agreed, he felt empty inside again.

It was a feeling of loss after an impulse.

It was as if I had boarded a pirate ship without knowing anything.

Zhou Mo saw at a glance that this guy was worried about gains and losses: "Don't worry, Brother Xiaoming, there will be no problem with the movie in the end. What's more, even if there is a problem, don't you still have Brother Kun to accompany you?"

Huang Xiaoming heard this.

I relaxed instantly.

Yes.

And there is Chen Kun.

Scared?
Anyway, he has been scolded for many years. Too many lice don't itch, and too many debts don't worry.

But Chen Kun is different.

This guy is thin-skinned and doesn't like being denied.

Huang Xiaoming regained his good mood and asked excitedly, "Director Zhou, can I ask about the general plot and ideas of your new script? I can also be mentally prepared."

Zhou Mo had no objection. After preparing his words for a while, he began to introduce the plot to Huang Xiaoming.

The idea for the new film came to him after he learned about "Lost in Russia".

Since he had never dealt with these physical instruments before, Zhou Mo had no idea that these things could be so expensive.

The price of a ship is more expensive than the cost of shooting a major war scene plus post-production.

Given Zhou Mo's personality, this thing definitely cannot be used just once.

It would take at least two films to satisfy him.

It’s the same principle as Lao Jiangtou paid for one song but used it for two movies.

Saving money is the first imagination.

Hence, the idea for this new film came about.

The name of the movie is "Homecoming".

Corresponding to the alias of "Lost in Taiwan", "Going to Sea".

The content of the film is also about four white and black people who harm and deceive each other, and finally discover each other's situation and choose to cooperate with each other. The difference from "The Peaceful Wheel" is that

The configuration of "Return of the Motherland" is two men and two women. The purpose is to use "bloody love between men and women" as a cover to conceal the conspiracy behind the love.

In addition, there is no big man following the four people, so the relationship between them will be more naked.

Main storyline:
The male lead Chengcai has just returned from studying in the United States. He brings his girlfriend Wenrou, with whom he has secretly engaged her, as well as his good friend Hao Qingbai and Wenrou's bestie Zhen Xin, on a 30-day round-trip voyage from the United States to Dongda.

The names of these four people seem to be somewhat similar to those of Grandma Joan.

The relationship between the four people is just as the name describes.

There's something fishy going on.

On the surface, Chengcai and Wenrou are a couple.

But at the same time, Hao Qingbai, as the traditional gentle and elegant second male lead, is also deeply in love with the female lead Wenrou.

The second female lead, Zhen Xin, is also eyeing Wenrou.

Chengcai is smart and capable, and naturally intelligent.

This time when he returned home, he not only had a lot of knowledge in his head, but also brought a large sum of money, which he stored in a safe in the form of bills.

This is the money he earned with his own brain during the years he studied abroad, and he will use this money as capital for starting his own business after he returns to China.

As the leading female character, Wenrou is beautiful, considerate and understanding.

Although she came from a wealthy family and her father was the chairman of a very large international company, she never acted overbearingly. Instead, she spoke softly and with great respect to everyone.

The leading male and female characters are a perfect match.

But this is not enough, the characters of the second male and female leads are also equally outstanding.

The second male lead, Hao Qingbai, is also a rich second-generation.

Although he does not have the business talent of the male lead, he is an upright person. Although he has feelings for Wenrou, he has never tried to poach her and just protects her silently.

At the same time, as a good brother of the male lead, he has also provided a lot of technical support to the male lead.

The second female lead, Zhen Xin.

Born in an orphanage.

But she was very strong. She worked and studied abroad on her own. At the same time, she lived frugally after school and sent money to the orphanage that raised her from time to time.

At the beginning of the main storyline, four people discussed their expectations for the future on the boat.

Chengcai suggested that the four of them should jointly establish a company after returning to China, with each person performing their respective duties based on their own strengths.

Chengcai and Zhenxin have more experience in business operations.

Therefore, in addition to providing the initial capital, Chengcai and Zhenxin were also mainly responsible for the company's operations.

And Wenrou has good connections and can be responsible for cultivating relationships in the company.

Since Hao Qingbai has good technical skills, he will be responsible for development.

However, after the day passed, that night, Zhen Xin "accidentally" overheard the conversation between Hao Qingbai and Wenrou.

This time, Hao Qingbai said goodbye to Wenrou.

First of all, he was not actually keen on starting a company. He had been silently accompanying the two of them before, but only because of Wenrou and Chengcai's relationship did not lead them to the final step.

But now that the two of them are engaged, he has completely let it go.

But Wenrou did not fully believe the above situation.

She and Hao Qingbai have known each other for many years, and she could tell at a glance that Hao Qingbai was not speaking complete sentences.

After she asked repeatedly, Hao Qingbai told her the real reason.

His father abandoned him and his mother, and fled with his mistress and illegitimate son, but left the debt to him and his mother.

So, he is no longer a rich second generation, but a pauper with heavy debts.

He is no longer qualified to be with Wenrou.

So, now it's time for him to leave.

He couldn't go on any longer and delay the relationship between Wenrou and Chengcai.

“The deepest love is waiting, and not disturbing is my gentleness.”

Hao Qingbai made his final confession.

Such an affectionate confession made Wenrou emotional.

She actually promised to give Hao Qingbai some money after returning to China to help him through the difficult times.

Hearing this, Zhen Xin turned and left.

I thought it was over here.

However, late at night, Zhen Xin saw Hao Qingbai acquainted with some people on the ship. These people beat Hao Qingbai to the ground and asked him to pay compensation.

Hao Qingbai begged hard and was able to escape the disaster.

Then he said something that shocked Zhen Xin: "I will definitely pay back the gambling debt I owe you. I have already injured someone, so give me a few more days."

Only then did Zhen Xin realize that Hao Qingbai was not clear at all.

There is no such thing as a father who abandons his wife and children. All his debts are due to his gambling debts.

Hao Qingbai is really not innocent at all.

So, the next day, Zhen Xin exposed Hao Qingbai's situation.

Hao Qingbai was kicked off the boat.
