In Fatty Wang's hotel, everyone was celebrating the smooth progress of this project.
But according to Zhao Chen's view, projects without signed contracts are not considered won, but here, no one seems to care about this.
Everyone raised their glasses and drank, feeling that they would make a lot of money again in the second half of the year.
"In order for us to successfully win the project this time, I propose that everyone go one." Fatty Wang picked up his wine glass and couldn't wait to celebrate the victory.
Spare ribs man Zhang Kai casually picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Take one."
"I'll just drink a little." Jiumei picked up the wine glass and was extremely cautious: "After all, there is another game tonight. Everyone, please take it easy, don't drink too much, and keep your head clear."
"Then Jiumei, please drink less. You are the coordinator of our team." He Xiaofan immediately took Jiumei's wine glass and poured some of the beer in Jiumei's glass into his own glass.
"Where's Gu Chen?" Fatty Wang glanced at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen picked up a glass of milk: "I'm driving and I don't drink. Let's use milk instead."
"That's fine. In your brother Wang's place, we don't have to pay so much attention."
Fatty Wang was also very happy today.
The main reason is that I had a very pleasant conversation with the producer in the morning, and everyone seemed to feel that it was too late to meet them.
The most important thing about cooperation is co-production.
These days, it can be said that there are thousands of options to choose from when it comes to finding a producer that is both capable and reliable.
It's fate to meet him.
Therefore, during the morning contact, everyone has actually reached a preliminary cooperation intention. If there is no problem after discussion with Wan Xiaojuan's team, we can actually sign the contract and finalize the details in the evening.
Thinking about it, everyone will have work to do in the second half of the year, and maybe they can still work until the first half of next year, so everyone is very excited, and a lot of expenses depend on the remuneration from this project.
After He Xiaofan finished his glass of wine, he was suddenly filled with emotion. He raised his head and hummed a song: "If I could do it all over again, I would be Li Bai."
"Oh, oh, oh, slobber, slobber." Seeing He Xiaofan's saliva splashing everywhere, Fatty Wang quickly raised his hand to stop him.
Jiumei also covered her mouth and snickered: "Classmate He Xiaofan is good at singing. If you have such energy, why not go to karaoke at night? You must show your potential as a singer to the producers. Maybe they will even give you the theme song of the TV series.
Singing."
"Haha, if that's really the case, then I can halve the salary. Singers can make much more money than us screenwriters by doing commercial tricks."
"You're still out of breath after complimenting you so much? Eat vegetables, eat vegetables." Zhang Kai was already hungry, so he picked up his chopsticks and wolfed down the food.
He Xiaofan, who couldn't bear to drink, was a little drunk. After humming a few lines of a song "Li Bai", he couldn't help but said: "It would be great if I could be as cool and unrestrained as Li Bai. I usually drink and write poems, write poems and drink wine. I want to travel and talk about leaving."
Just leave.”
"He didn't need to write a manuscript or pay back the flowers. He just said, 'I didn't know the moon when I was young, and I called it a white jade plate', or 'I'll come back after all the money I spent'."
After looking at everyone, He Xiaofan brought up the topic he had chatted with Gu Chen in the car and said:
"Just think about it, where has this ordinary child seen a 'white jade plate'? If he was not the second generation of rich people, how could he have written such a heroic poem as 'I will come back after all the money I have lost'?"
"If Li Bai hadn't had a solid family background to protect him from traveling around the world, Li Bai, an unemployed vagrant, idle and drunken, if it had been anyone else, he would have been beaten to death in minutes."
"Moreover, he also married the daughters of two prime ministers in succession, and both of them married into the woman's family."
Taking a deep breath, He Xiaofan shook his head and sighed: "This guy... is really a winner in life. How is it like us, who have to run for life every day, mortgage and car loans, and are breathless? He is not as good as Li Bai, a super man who has spanned thousands of years.
The big internet celebrity is so chic."
"No more pretending, my ancestor is Li Bai." A male waiter who served everyone joked with everyone while putting the dishes on the table.
"Xiao Li, you are taking advantage." When Fatty Wang saw this, he also smiled and said: "Give me a few more dishes."
"Boss, you are bossing around Li Bai's descendants." The waiter named Xiao Li has a good relationship with Fatty Wang, so he is naturally accustomed to exchanging words with him.
Gu Chen coughed twice and said as a reminder: "Li Bai's eldest son, Li Boqin, has two daughters, and his second son, Li Tianran, has no offspring."
"Giving two daughters? The second son, Li Tianran, has no heirs?" Zhang Kai quickly understood the meaning and laughed loudly: "Since Li Bai has no heirs, what about you?"
Xiao Li: "..."
"Your Excellency has no heir, and your surname is Li." He Xiaofan said jokingly.
Xiao Li: "..."
Jiumei waved her hand: "No, no, it should be Li Ziyan, because the incense burner produces purple smoke in the sunshine."
Xiao Li: "..."
"Pfft! Isn't it Li's accident? You might as well ask Li to dream, or he may be a descendant of Li Bai who traveled abroad and cultivated without soil." He Xiaofan also said jokingly.
Xiao Li: "..."
"Alas, it's too much, it's too much." When Fatty Wang heard this, he immediately put down his chopsticks and reminded: "Xiao Li is an employee of my family. You can't bully others like this. I can only bully our employees."
"If you want me to see it, why don't you call it Li Daydream, or Li Shihou? A Sun Wukong can also pop out of a stone!"
"puff!"
"Hahaha, Fatty Wang, you have gone too far."
"Isn't it okay if you don't cheat the employees like you do?"
"No, no, it should be the seeds sown by Comrade Li Bai when he traveled to the mountains and rivers. Think about it, Li Bai has many fans, and there is no shortage of female fans. He bought many gifts. In order to keep his female fans, Li Bai naturally wanted to meet him.
Noodles or something.”
"Furthermore, Yu Ting was not sold in ancient times. Do you really think that he went to so many places just for traveling? So to sum up, Lao Li should have children and grandchildren all over the world."
"Hahaha."
Xiao Li: "..."
Seeing everyone joking endlessly, the waiter Xiao Li's face turned green.
I really want to give myself a slap in the face, blaming myself for being a bitch and offending these screenwriters.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But after thinking about it, waiter Xiao Li's eyes suddenly lit up.
He looked at Gu Chen and said weakly: "Didn't this person just say that Li Bai had done something to cross the door? Then didn't his eldest son have two daughters? My ancestor may have been... a married woman."
"Why don't you just say it was given by Mr. Wang next door?" Fatty Wang almost burst into tears with laughter, and he also made a pause gesture: "Okay, okay, the teasing is over, that's over, Xiao Li, hurry up and go
Serve."
"Okay, if you are teasing me like this, aren't you afraid that I will put laxatives in your food?" The waiter Xiao Li also left with a teasing tone.
Ridicule is ridicule, but everyone is like a mirror in their hearts.
Today at noon is the beginning of everyone celebrating their victory in advance.
Although, it is possible to be disappointed.
Or the producer suddenly calls and tells you that cooperation may be postponed.
Or maybe a phone call comes to tell you that we have other cats that seem to be more suitable than yours.
In the business world, there are too many things like first making a verbal promise, shopping around, and then changing your mind.
However, these are nothing in everyone’s eyes.
Celebrating in advance is also a way to cheer yourself up.
After all, no one received a project in the first half of the year, and it was difficult to rest on one’s laurels.
There are still few gatherings like this, so everyone must find an excuse to make this gathering seem worthy of the name.
This can also be regarded as a preview of the dinner party in the evening.
It's been a long time since we've been together at the dinner table. Sometimes, you don't know what the process should be.
How to toast.
How to speak.
I don’t even know what the tips are for drinking.
Gu Chen could tell that everyone was actually panicking.
This lunch...is nothing more than an exercise in courage for everyone.
In fact, Gu Chen had already figured it out as early as when he listened to everyone talking about the dispute over signatures and the struggle for various rights in the coffee shop.
These people are very panicked.
Anxiety seems to be lingering in everyone's heart.
It was fully prepared and even all the details were listed clearly.
Then, when your opponent comes over and agrees to it, you feel that winning this battle is too easy, and there is not even any technical content.
After three drinks, He Xiaofan got a little drunk, patted Gu Chen on the shoulder and said, "Gu Chen, I have to trouble you for the party tonight."
"No problem." Gu Chen didn't mind.
It's just a matter of driving to and fro, and it's a breeze.
He Xiaofan said with some envy: "Everyone envies Li Bai. In fact, the person that your brother He envies the most is you."
"Ah?" Gu Chen was stunned, but also smiled and said: "I'm a policeman and you envy me?"
"Of course, because you can do the work you like, but I am a screenwriter just to make a living. Is it the same?"
Looking at the big white G outside, He Xiaofan also sighed with emotion: "One year, give me one year, and I will bring a big G back."
Seeing Gu Chen nodding slightly, he remained silent.
He Xiaofan smiled: "Gu Chen, you may think I'm vulgar, but this is life. Everyone's family background is different. Maybe what I envy is what you have."
"Although as the saying goes, money is not everything and money cannot buy true love."
"But once you have money, others will notice that your bald head shines with wisdom, and your big belly looks so mature and reliable."
"Girls will slowly appreciate these advantages of yours, and then develop feelings for you."
Gu Chen was stunned: "But wasn't your previous motto 'Being ordinary is a blessing, being content is always happy'? What? Changed it again?"
"Haha." When Fatty Wang saw this, he also laughed and said: "Gu Chen, being ordinary is a blessing, contentment is always happy, that is just the temporary comfort that a loser gives himself."
"Another way is that the rich have reached a certain level, so they feel that being ordinary is a blessing."
"Otherwise, if you look at those rich people, they often publish books or write articles, telling us how they are not interested in money, and how they yearn for the happiness of poverty."
"What is its purpose? It's just that we are afraid that once we start fighting, we will threaten their status."
"A knife can see blood." Zhang Kai was stunned, and after drinking a glass of beer, he smiled faintly: "To tell the truth will lead to no friends."
"This sentence touches my heart. It turns out that we all have difficulty in choosing, and we are not homebodies. As for poverty and ugliness? Being poor is true, but it has nothing to do with ugliness." Jiumei grabbed Zhang Kai's wine glass and put it on the table.
On one side, several people are prohibited from drinking.
Zhang Kai was unconvinced and said: "I'm different from your ninth sister. I stay home not because I'm poor, but because I don't want to see the world."
"After all, I have never been cheated in my life for decades. I thought I was so smart, but now I realize that I am too poor and even scammers look down on me."
"Maybe you are so smart that liars don't even want to talk to you." Gu Chen said jokingly.
Zhang Kai hooked Gu Chen's shoulders and burped loudly: "Brother Gu Chen, what you said makes some sense."
"But when you get rich, people will admire you for being smart, bald, shiny, and reliable."
"And when you become poor, people will dislike you for being bald before you grow old, being greasy and ugly, having a big belly as if you were pregnant, and being fat and oily."
"When I love you, I yell and yell at you for your personality. When I don't love you, you are as gentle as a cat and even think you are shedding hair."
"That's why I said, I stay home not because I am poor, but because I don't want to see the world."
"But I think it's more likely that you're escaping. Isn't it because you're lazy?" Gu Chen retorted.
Zhang Kai smiled.
He Xiaofan and Fatty Wang also laughed.
Do you think the police are also so talkative?
Dare you do anything in front of the screenwriter?
However, one or two words from Gu Chen completely shattered everyone's self-comfort.
Jiumei was the most sober one among the people. She knocked on the table to remind Fatty Wang: "Wang Hai, I will arrange a room in your hotel later and sober up. I will arrange the reception in the evening."
"No problem. I'll provide them with whatever services they want. I'll make sure they leave happily. You can rest assured about the contract."
Fatty Wang is a very liberal guy in all aspects. He studied philosophy in college.
Most of the children who choose to major in philosophy in college do not have any urgent burdens at home, and studying philosophy is purely a hobby.
The family originally wanted Fatty Wang to inherit the restaurant and run it well, but he was deceived by He Xiaofan and went to work as a screenwriter.
This aspect is very similar to Gu Chen himself.
…
…
4:50 p.m.
According to the place everyone had agreed upon in advance, Fatty Wang arranged an antique and elegant hotel for the production team.
Mainly in the center of the business district, next door is the KTV. After dinner, you can take the production team with you to have fun.
The reason why we came to the restaurant in advance is because many contract details need to be finalized, so everyone can discuss the details before serving the food.
This time there were not only the literary director Wan Xiaojuan who met in the coffee shop in the morning, the script producer Zhao Sifan, the male assistant Xiao Gao, but also the literary planner Liao Fan who had not met in the morning.
As soon as everyone arrived in the private room, they became polite to each other.
Liao Fan, a middle-aged man, also apologized and said: "I met an old acquaintance this morning. He pulled me and refused to let me go. I can only ask Director Wan and others to come over to discuss the details with you."
"But don't worry, the demands you have made are all legitimate demands. We are a big production company, and of course we will not cheat you."
"That means?" Jiumei seemed to understand what Liao Fan meant.
Liao Fan smiled: "What I mean is that we can meet all your requirements. We will send an email to the head office today. If the company's top management agrees, we can sign the contract tonight."
"Really?" Jiu Mei grinned, this was the contract she had been looking forward to.
Liao Fan is not as difficult to deal with as the industry says, and he is even easy to talk to.
Of course, Jiumei also knows that it is still difficult for a small team to make various requests with Liao Fan.
But after all, my team has participated in large-scale productions, and they all have their signatures.
Therefore, the strength and worth are all here.
When facing industry giants, both parties will give the same respect. After all, they have equal strength, so they won't be groveling when working together.
"Then...when can the contract be signed?" He Xiaofan was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he quickly asked.
Liao Fan crossed his hands on the table and said with a faint smile: "If I guess correctly, the senior management at the head office should reply to me before 6 o'clock."
"But please rest assured, I can pass it, and the head office will not have big problems. As long as everyone cooperates in good faith, I believe that our projects will become bigger and bigger, and there will be more cooperation possibilities in the future."
Liao Fan's words are very contagious. After all, literary planning is not just for free.
Jiumei believed it.
He Xiaofan also believed it.
Fatty Wang and Zhang Kai are naturally looking forward to it.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, it seems that life is about to usher in a turning point. Everyone is working hard and looking forward to the time coming soon.
Seeing that several people were still sighing, Gu Chen touched He Xiaofan's shoulder and reminded him: "It's time to serve."
"Oh, yes, yes, serve the food, serve the food, waiter." He Xiaofan shouted.
A waitress in traditional costume poked her head out of the door and said, "Hello."
"How long will it take for our food to be served?" He Xiaofan said.
"Your food will be ready soon. Please wait a moment. I'll go and hurry you up." The waitress's answer was very official.
So everyone ate snacks and talked about their respective contributions in the field.
The time soon came to 5:20.
At this moment, the dining table is filled with various dishes. Everyone is using their chopsticks to enjoy Jiangnan specialties.
At this moment, Liao Fan's cell phone suddenly rang.
He put down his chopsticks and opened the answer button: "Hello."
Gu Chen looked up at him and saw Liao Fan frowning slightly and beginning to nod silently.
"Yes, I am Liao Fan, yes, I know him, what?"
Maybe it was because he made too much noise when answering the phone, but Liao Fan's surprise caused the noisy private room to suddenly become quiet.
Liao Fan looked at the crowd and continued in a lower tone: "How could this happen? Wasn't everything fine before?"
Liao Fan seemed to be in some trouble, and the others looked at each other in confusion, speculating on various possibilities on the phone.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know. Maybe there's something going on at Master Liao's family?"
"A big boss in the industry has a lot of troubles. Could it be that there is something wrong with our contract?"
"Oh no?"
It was also under everyone's whispers that Liao Fan finally explained his address and hung up the phone with "um hmm" twice.
"What's wrong? Planner Liao? Is there something wrong with the contract?" Jiumei had an ominous premonition.
After all, this is so close to the company’s last response time of 6pm that it’s hard not to think of this.
Liao Fan smiled lightly: "It's not about the contract, it's about some personal matters of mine. Maybe I have to excuse myself for a while."
While talking, Liao Fan had already started to collect his things, as if he was rushing somewhere.
