Hong Kong Comic Master
Chapter 427: Exorbitant Price
The lobby of Guan Zhiling's villa is as high as three floors. The crystal chandelier on the ceiling looks like a starry sky when you look up from below.
Even though Zhang Weijian is a well-informed person, he still feels insignificant when sitting on the sofa in the lobby. He picks up the teacup on the coffee table in front of him with trembling hands.
"Jianzi, why are you nervous? Haven't you met Mr. Li?"
The man sitting next to Zhang Weijian is young, fat, and his two green bean eyes narrow into a slit when he smiles. With a beard and glasses, he is the legendary fat mantis!
This man looks harmless, but he is actually Wang Jing, the top commercial film director in Hong Kong Island.
Hearing Wang Jing's question, Zhang Weijian forcibly suppressed his inner excitement and pretended to be calm and said: "I... I'm not nervous!"
However, his trembling hands had already betrayed his heart!
Wang Jing couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, I recommended you. You are the male lead of this movie. Mr. Li will definitely not object!"
"What do you object to?"
Wang Jing wanted to say something else, but a light voice suddenly floated upstairs, which made Wang Jing sit up straight. At this time, Wang Jing looked more nervous than Zhang Weijian.
As for Zhang Weijian, he stared at the stairs and swallowed his saliva.
Almost a moment later, the two saw a man wearing a long gray silk robe coming down from upstairs. It was Li Wannian.
"No...no...ha...hahaha!"
The two did not bother about why Li Wannian was wearing a robe at this time. Wang Jing smiled awkwardly, and Zhang Weijian smiled with him.
"What do you want to see me so late?"
Hearing Li Wannian's words, Wang Jing couldn't help but glance at the time. It wasn't even dinner time at this time. Is it very late?
However, Wang Jing also knew that this was not the time to dwell on this. With a flattering smile, he said to Li Wannian: "Mr. Li, this is Zhang Weijian, the actor of "Super School Overlord". He also filmed "Parasyte", which is about to be released soon!"
Wang Jing introduced Zhang Weijian to Li Wannian, and Li Wannian's reaction was beyond Wang Jing's expectations.
"Jianzi, you are getting better and better now?"
"It's all thanks to you, Mr. Li, for giving me this opportunity!"
"Alas, opportunities are earned by you. If you don't have the ability, you won't be able to grasp the opportunity even if I give you one!"
The conversation between Li Wannian and Zhang Weijian seemed very familiar, which made Wang Jing on the side more curious.
"Mr. Li, do you know Jianzi?"
"Of course, in fact, I knew him as early as ten years ago! I remember that a child's Pokémon card was snatched by a senior student and it was on the news!"
Li Wannian was also lost in memories at this time. He didn't expect that so many years had passed in a flash!
The child has grown up and become an artist under his own company.
"Yes, thanks to the help of Mr. Li and you, our family was able to survive. To be honest, our family was almost unable to make ends meet at that time. I didn't expect that you, Mr. Li, still remembered this incident!"
The two recalled the past, which surprised Wang Jing a little. However, this guy was a smart man after all. After being surprised, he quickly came to his senses and began to calculate the benefits that this incident could bring to him.
"Director Tsui Hark and Director Wang Jing have different shooting styles, and "Parasyte" and "Super School Overlord" are also two different movies. You need to adapt to this yourself, but you are a good actor, I believe you can do it!"
"Thank you, Mr. Li, I will definitely work hard and will not let your work down!"
Li Wannian's words made Zhang Weijian full of fighting spirit, and he couldn't wait to go to film now.
Looking at Zhang Weijian's state, Wang Jing on the side sighed in his heart: This guy is still a young man, and he drank such an obvious bowl of chicken soup so cleanly!
In fact, Wang Jing obviously miscalculated a little. The reason why Zhang Weijian was so useful, in addition to the chicken soup itself, was more importantly the person who fed you the chicken soup!
For a person as high and mighty as Li Wannian, his words are more effective than ten thousand words of ordinary people!
Apart from anything else, as long as Li Wannian's praise for Zhang Weijian spreads, it will be much easier for him to get a role in the future!
"Boss, speaking of movies, I have some small ideas for this movie that I want to report to you!"
Seeing that Li Wannian was in a good mood at this time, Wang Jing took the opportunity to talk to Li Wannian.
This guy really knows how to behave. Obviously, his movie has little to do with Li Wannian, and he is not Li Wannian's subordinate, but Li Wanshan's subordinate, but in front of Li Wannian, his attitude is always very low.
"What's the idea?"
Although Li Wannian knew that Wang Jing was trying to change the subject and gain benefits for himself, he didn't care about that. As long as Wang Jing could make a good movie, he didn't care about anything else.
"It's like this, because this movie needs to recruit a lot of stars, and their shapes and images need to be readjusted, so we may need some images of your other comic characters!"
"Like which characters?"
Li Wannian asked with a somewhat cold smile on his face.
"Ichigo, Gundam, Naruto, just give me a few!"
"Do you want me to give you Luffy too?"
"Oh, that's not necessary, that character is not very popular right now..."
Halfway through, Wang Jing noticed the vague smile on Li Wannian's face, and immediately came to his senses, and said with a smile: "Oh, I just said this casually, but please don't take it seriously. !”
"Damn fat man, I told you before, right? Don't be like a hamster, trying to take over whatever good thing you see. All your actions must be based on the quality of the movie!"
"Yes, yes, you taught me a lesson!"
Wang Jing responded repeatedly.
But Li Wannian knew that this guy didn't listen at all and was just coping, so he continued.
"Don't even think about those comic characters. I can give you the portrait rights of "Street Fighter" and Wukong this time. It's already a great honor for you. If you want anything else, come and trade with me for your movie results!"
Capcom finally launched the game "Street Fighter" last year. Although the gameplay is very similar to "2D Brawl", it still attracted a large number of players and became popular throughout Asia.
"Yes! Mr. Li, don't worry, I will do a good job!"
After hearing what Li Wannian said, Wang Jing showed a bright smile.
In fact, this is the real purpose of his trip. He also knows that it is unrealistic to ask Li Wannian for so many copyrights. He is just asking for high prices and paying back the money!
Not to mention, everything seems to be going well on this trip!
