Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Yu Dongqing handed his mobile phone to Luo Yun, and Lu Xiaoxi had just sent him three script outlines via WeChat.

Luo Yun watched while eating: "This is no good. What kind of thriller? The plot design is too stupid. Why do I look like I just want to laugh? But the salary of 2 million is not low."

"This? A domineering president? I think Lu Xiaoxi's temperament is not suitable for acting, right?"

"School drama? The subject matter is okay. It's just that the plot is too retarded and bloody, right?"

Luo Yun watched and commented, and finally said: "I don't think this script is very good. It will definitely be a bad movie when it is made."

Yu Dongqing had already finished a large bowl of noodles at this time, wiped his mouth and took the phone: "Let me take a look."

After carefully reading the three scripts, it turned out that it was just as Luo Yun said: the scripts are too rubbish.

"To choose a general from among the dwarfs, you have to choose one for others." Yu Dongqing finally said.

He knew that Lu Xiaoxi was just starting out and was not yet picky about the script.

Luo Yun nodded and suddenly thought of something: "Hey, didn't your script just sell out? I think it's good to let Lu Xiaoxi play the male lead."

"Are you talking about the movie "To Our Mortal Youth"?"

"Yes, that's it!"

When Meiliang wanted to make a campus youth film, Yu Dongqing prepared two scripts including "To Youth". In the end, Meiliang chose "Young You", and the former was shelved.

Now that "Better Days" has become a hit, Yu Dongqing, as a screenwriter, has attracted the attention of the film industry.

Unexpectedly, this musician who is very good at writing songs is also an excellent screenwriter!

After learning that he still had a script for a youth film, Huangdu Film and Television immediately sent people to the studio to negotiate and bought his script for 2.6 million, and it would be shot by a female director named Zhou Limei.

Of course Luo Yun is specifically responsible for these matters.

Let Lu Xiaoxi play the male lead Zhao Xiaozheng?

In the script, he has a withdrawn character, handsome appearance, cold temperament, serious work and never give up halfway, his family is poor, he is very utilitarian under the pressure of his mother, and he wants to get ahead.

Lu Xiaoxi's temperament is still somewhat similar to Zhao Xiaozheng in the play.

"It seems that Director Zhou's crew has been set up, right? I guess the male lead has been confirmed." Yu Dongqing reminded.

"I'll go ask and give Lu Xiaoxi this opportunity."

Ah?

Why are you so positive and enthusiastic?

Yu Dongqing glanced at her, a little surprised.

Luo Yun understood what he meant and said: "The main reason is that I think Lu Xiaoxi is a very potential actor, don't let it be ruined by bad movies at the beginning! Of course, I hope he can sign with our studio, which will provide him with more opportunities." What a better resource!”

Oops, that was the original idea!

"Okay, just leave this matter to me and don't worry about it." After Luo Yun finished speaking, she asked again: "Do you still want to eat? I'll give you another bowl?"

"That's enough." Yu Dongqing touched his belly and stood up.

After the Chinese New Year, Luo Yun often cooked delicious food for him personally, and she seemed to have gained a few pounds.

It seems that I have to resist the temptation.

Lu Xiaoxi was anxiously waiting for news about Yu Dongqing. Unexpectedly, two beautiful women, one old and one young, were waiting for him.

Luo Yun took her assistant Yang Liu and drove to Xiao Xi's residence on Majuqiao Road, Tongzhou, and found him in person.

Lu Xiaoxi didn't know her, so Luo Yun took out her business card and introduced herself before telling her the purpose of her trip.

"Lu Xiaoxi, Mr. Yu has read the three scripts you sent and thinks they are not very good. If they are filmed, the box office will be very good. An actor with great potential like you should make some good films, whether it is for It will be good for your acting skills and your future."

Sitting on the chair, Luo Yun said elegantly.

"What do you mean?" Lu Xiaoxi was a little confused.

"What do you think of this script?"

Yang Liu immediately took out a stack of paper from the briefcase he was carrying and handed it to Lu Xiaoxi.

"To our dying youth"

The name is quite nice.

Lu Xiaoxi looked seriously.

It is still a campus youth drama, but it is not as dark and cruel as the previous movie "Young You", but the plot is still exciting.

It's a good script.

After Lu Xiaoxi finished reading, he returned the script to Yang Liu.

"Is it still shot by Ming Guo?"

"No, it's director Zhou Limei from Royal Capital Film and Television." Luo Yun said.

Lu Xiaoxi has heard of this director's name, and he is also a famous director.

"Do you want to star in the play as the male lead?"

"think!"

"I can help you fight for it, but there is a condition. You have to sign with our studio." After Luo Yun finished speaking, she looked at Lu Xiaoxi.

Lu Xiaoxi only hesitated for a second and said immediately: "Okay."

Yang Liu immediately took out a thick piece of material from his briefcase and said: "These are the specific terms of the contract. Read it carefully and sign it if you agree. Of course, Mr. Luo's intention is that if we can't fight for you As the male lead in "Youth", this contract is void and this content has been written in the supplementary contract."

"No need." Lu Xiaoxi looked at the contract and said, "Even if I can't play the male lead, if the contract is suitable, I am still willing to sign a contract with your studio."

Luo Yun smiled slightly.

"Well, don't rush to sign the contract. Take a closer look. If you have any questions, contact Yang Liu. We'll leave first." Luo Yun stood up after speaking.

"Okay, I'll give you an answer as soon as possible. Please walk slowly."

Luo Yun and Yang Liu left Lu Xiaoxi's station and drove back to the city. Yang Liu asked, "Will Lu Xiaoxi sign the contract?"

"Definitely, we didn't cheat him." Luo Yun replied: "You are responsible for this matter, including negotiating with Huangdu Media and Director Zhou."

"Ah? Sister Luo, do you believe me so much?" Yang Liu said in surprise.

"You have been with me for two years. The work of an agent is like this: finding resources and negotiating with the other party to strive for the best interests of the artists. As far as our studio is concerned, with Teacher Yu here, there is no shortage of resources in the music world. Others are asking for help. I asked him to write songs and invite him to perform but he was still unwilling to go. Guo Xin and Zhang Bao are also famous in the music industry now, not to mention Zhao Yawen, so it is difficult to do the job of an agent."

Yang Liu nodded thoughtfully: "Sister Luo, Mr. Yu can write scripts, be a photographer, and has also done martial arts. I guess he can also be a director, right?"

"I haven't heard him say it, but if he is willing to do it, I think it won't be too bad. The success rate of screenwriters turning into directors is very high. If the story is wonderful, why worry about the market?"

This is true.

"If Mr. Yu becomes a director and enters the film and television industry and makes a few hit films, then there will definitely be no shortage of resources!" Yang Liu said.

"So, it's relatively easy to be his studio manager. You don't need to worry about finding resources from other people." Luo Yun finally said.

"Sister Luo, are you ready to retreat behind the scenes and be your boss's wife?" Yang Liu suddenly thought of a question and smiled.

"What boss lady?!" Luo Yun said angrily.
