The king of ghost horse comedy

Chapter 6
"Is this the address of Zhao Yazhi's residence? It seems that her family background is not very good." Xu Guanwu looked up at the old corridor with mottled walls in front of him.

"Second brother, if you want to sign this girl, you can just call or send someone directly, why do you have to come in person?" Xu Guanying accompanied Xu Guanwu, looking at the dark corridor and whispered.

"As a qualified company executive, it is natural to pay more attention to the first contracted employee of your company. This will also make people feel our sincerity." Xu Guanwu said nonsense.

In fact, he insisted on coming in person this time, but he wanted to satisfy the desire to chase stars in his heart.

When he watched "Shanghai Beach" and "Legend of the New White Snake" when he was a child, he admired Zhao Yazhi very much, and he was determined to find such a gentle and virtuous wife in the future.

Therefore, now that he has the opportunity to meet a real person, Xu Guanwu naturally does not want to give up this opportunity.

"Second brother, what you said really makes sense." Xu Guanying scratched her head, completely taken aback by Xu Guanwu's big words.

……

The two brothers walked up to the sixth floor according to the address, and lightly rang the doorbell.

"Here we come!" Someone in the room responded, and then the door opened, but it was a woman in her 40s, "Who are you looking for?" She looked at Xu Guanwu and Xu Guanying who were standing at the door in doubt. .

"Ah, hello, Auntie, you are Mother Zhao. We are employees of the film company, and we are here today to look for Ms. Zhao Yazhi." Xu Guanwu smiled and stuffed his business card through the security door.

Hearing that the film company was looking for her daughter, Mother Zhao's eyes lit up.She knew that her daughter was naturally beautiful and hard to give up on, so she wanted her to become a big star and earn a lot of money for the family in the future.This year's Miss Hong Kong election was also pushed by her several times before she let her daughter sign up.

Just took a look at the business card, Mother Zhao's expression froze immediately, "Xu Brothers Company?! Never heard of it!" She looked at Xu Guanwu and Xu Guanying suspiciously, and almost suspected that the two were liars.

"Although we are a new company that has just been established, our boss is Xu Guanwen. He worked with director Li Hanxiang on "The Great Warlord" and "Scandal." Xu Guanwu quickly explained.

"The boss of your company is Xu Guanwen?! I've heard of him. But your company should be small, we A Zhi is the first runner-up of Miss Hong Kong, not all small companies enter." Zhao's mother curled her lips and said, still no one. Open means.

"My aunt listened to my explanation. In fact, a big company has its advantages, and a small company also has its advantages. A big company has many artists and seniority. Even if Ms. Zhao enters a big company, it will be difficult to get ahead in three to five years. On the contrary, although our company is small, it has sufficient resources. Ms. Zhao will be the first female artist signed by our company, and will naturally be highly praised by our company in the future. And this movie Ms. Zhao is a well-deserved actress. As for the lead role, you can also be careful about the salary." Xu Guanwu said with a smile, showing no sign of displeasure.

As an assistant secretary in her previous life, she was used to the cold faces of her superiors and clients.Zhao's mother is just a small incident, not to mention that she is also thinking about her daughter, which Xu Guanwu appreciates very much.

Hearing what Xu Guanwu said, Zhao's mother thought about it for a while, and thought it was quite reasonable.

Although she shouted loudly, she didn't know what to do in her heart.

Although my daughter won Miss Hong Kong No.4, she was not able to sign a contract with TVB, and no film company came to invite her.What he said just now was nothing more than self-importance. Now after hearing Xu Guanwu's explanation, he also thinks that Xu Brothers Company is a good company.At the very least, she's the heroine at the very beginning. If she becomes a hit, the money will come rolling in.

"In this case, please come in and sit down." Zhao's mother showed a smile on her face, and greeted Xu Guanwu and Xu Guanying graciously.

Xu Guanwu took a look at the house, and saw that the furnishings in the house were all old and not old, and there were no valuable electrical appliances. He secretly concluded that Zhao Yazhi's family was not rich.

"Please sit down, both of you, and I'll make tea." Mother Zhao greeted her attentively.

"Let's not bother. I don't know if Ms. Zhao Yazhi is at home? We want to talk to her about filming." Xu Guanwu waved his hand.

"Our Ah Zhi just got off the plane, and now we are resting in the room. So, can you talk to me about anything first?" Mother Zhao politely refused.

Xu Guanwu looked at Xu Guanying and thought to himself: "This mother Zhao doesn't look easy to fool."

"It's like this. Our movie is a comedy movie with an investment of 80 yuan. Ms. Zhao will play the heroine, that is, the girlfriend of the hero. I can only reveal the specific role after signing a contract." Xu Guanwu said concisely , "This film is the opening work of our company, and everyone in the company attaches great importance to it, so there will be absolutely no mistakes."

"Our old man's family education is strict. We don't agree with kissing scenes and revealing things." Mother Zhao waved her hand and said exaggeratedly.

"Auntie, don't worry, we don't have those scenes in this movie, this can be written in the contract." Xu Guanwu said firmly.

The Xu family's family style is also quite conservative, and their own children are not allowed to do these things that are offensive to public morals.

The three brothers Xu Guanwen, Xu Guanjie, and Xu Guanying have spent half their lives in the Hong Kong film industry, and there have been no scandals.This is rare in the Hong Kong film industry, and it is a moral model that everyone talks about.

"That's good, since that's the case, let's talk about the salary." Mother Zhao went straight to the point.

"Okay, the salary we invite Ms. Zhao this time is 5000 Hong Kong dollars, and if the box office sells well, there will be bonuses." Xu Guanwu smiled.

5000 Hong Kong dollars was considered a huge sum in 73.

As a second-tier Shaw Brothers artist, a play costs only four to five thousand Hong Kong dollars.

"Is it only 5000 Hong Kong dollars?" Zhao's mother was a little disappointed.

"Although the salary is not very high, this is Ms. Zhao's first film after all, and we have to spend manpower and material resources on training..." Xu Guanwu explained.

"Well then, I can't decide this matter myself, why don't you let go of the contract, and I'll answer you after discussing it with my family." Mother Zhao said.

"Okay then, Auntie, here is a deposit of 5000 yuan. If you like, please go to the company to sign the contract tomorrow." After speaking, Xu Guanwu left the document bag containing the money and the copy of the contract, and then got up to leave go.

He believes that no one can notice Zhao Yazhi, a rising star, so he is not afraid that she will go to other companies.

……

Mother Zhao opened the bag and was stunned when she saw a stack of new banknotes inside.

By the time she realized it, Xu Guanwu and the two brothers had already walked away.

……

After leaving, Xu Guanying was a little dissatisfied, "It's disgusting, our two company executives came here, and instead of telling us to meet the boss, they are so picky. I really think my daughter is the queen."

"Oh, this is the first time. When our company grows and our reputation spreads, we will be the ones to pick and choose." Xu Guanwu patted Xu Guanying on the shoulder and smiled.
