"Mr. Liu, what can we do with food but no wine? Are you not prepared?" Qin Xiaobao asked hypocritically.
"Yes, yes!" Liu Minghua stood up with a smile and went to the bar, with red wine in his left hand and champagne in his right: "Which one should Mr. Qin drink?"
Qin Xiaobao pretended to think: "The guest is at his leisure, Mr. Hu is the one to choose."
Hu Ge laughed directly, mmp, are you so subtle in reminding me?
He didn't misunderstand. On the way here, Qin Xiaobao thought of the plot in "The Hunting Ground". He successfully poached people and wanted to open champagne to celebrate, so he just brought out two bottles of wine as a reminder.
"Director Qin, you are a drunkard and don't care about drinking!" After chatting for a whole afternoon, Hu Ge also knew a lot about Qin Xiaobao. At least he had a good personality and was easy to talk to, so he simply nodded a few times on the table with a smile.
"Do I have one?" Qin Xiaobao looked surprised: "It's just a wine choice, it doesn't have any special meaning."
"Really!" Hu Ge obviously didn't believe it.
"Yes, I went to Berlin this time. I didn't gain anything else. I found that people there like drinking champagne, which is always available in the hotel." Qin Xiaobao laughed and said, "Maybe the boss here has also gone to study."
"Really, then if I choose red wine, will you be unhappy?" Hu Ge asked.
"If you're unhappy, just drink whatever you like." Qin Xiaobao shook his head.
Hu Ge stood up: "Let me see what brand of wine it is."
Liu Minghua handed it over: "Mr. Hu, does he also have research on wine?"
"I know a little bit." Hu Ge took the red wine first: "It's made in France. The sunshine there is good and the grapes are good...Actually, it's been a long time since I debuted, so I'm quite satisfied.
I have a bit of fame and enough money to spend. Sometimes, I will think about what I will do if I don't make movies anymore.
But after thinking about it for a long time, I seemed to know nothing.
You said investment is risky, but I can’t even do the calculations when opening a restaurant. I have no other choice but to be an actor.”
The others said nothing and listened quietly.
"Over the years, I have filmed roles that I liked, and there were also films that I had to act in, but it's really nothing. In life, everything goes smoothly.
We have experienced frustrations and good times. As people get older day by day, and they no longer have worries about life, they start to feel a little..."
Hu Ge paused.
"Is it pretentious? I just feel like I want a change? Is it still acting? But something different.
I tried to star in literary films, but... that didn't seem to be what I needed. Apart from babbling, I didn't even know what to do, and the audience was confused.
They all say that my acting skills have improved. To be honest, I don’t feel it. I just need to be expressionless and speak lifelessly? Is that just my acting skills?
I have talked with the company bosses, but they don't quite understand what I want.
Maybe it's because I can't express my deepest thoughts well, so I feel very tired.
Maybe it would be better to change the company?
Maybe?" Hu Ge turned his head and picked up the champagne: "We should drink this!"
Is this monologue quite exciting? Qin Xiaobao wanted to applaud, but it seemed a bit inappropriate. Under Hu Ge's eager eyes, he stood up: "Believe me, I won't let you down."
boom!
The champagne is on!
"Mr. Qin, please say something." Liu Minghua said after filling the four people's cups.
"Say something, let me think about it," Qin Xiaobao raised his head: "Let's be vulgar. I wish our future life will be full of surprises and beauty!"
"cheers!!!"
Liu Minghua was naturally satisfied. Although he had chatted with Lao Hu several times and made some insinuations as to whether he was willing to join, he not only gave an accurate reply but also vaguely skipped it.
Coming here today was obviously a good opportunity, but he struggled all night about how to say it. He felt that nothing was right. In the end, just like the incident at the film festival, he solved it in a daze.
The agent was naturally satisfied. Although he had been with Lao Hu for many years and had experienced many big and small things, he had many opinions about changing the agency, but he did not dare to mention them.
Lao Hu was not happy for a day or two, or even for a year or two. As an agent, he also felt uncomfortable. Coming here today was obviously a good opportunity, but he guessed that he would still think about such a big matter for a while.
Be careful and agree?
Qin Xiaobao is naturally satisfied. As the boss of a brokerage company and a fan of Lao Hu, if he can join, there will be no harm at all. There must still be talented artists in the company. He can barely count one, and one more will naturally be more important.
good.
Coming here today is obviously a good opportunity, but would a person as big as Lao Hu really agree to change companies just because of a script? As a result, the idea came to him and the effect was pretty good!
Hu Ge was naturally satisfied. He had been seeking change, but lacked an opportunity, or courage. When he saw the short film "The Tuner", he was amazed and got to know Qin Xiaobao.
Not long after that, the project for "The Man from Earth" was approved, and the cast exceeded his expectations. On the day of the premiere, he sneaked into the cinema, and sure enough, he was not disappointed.
It seems that the opportunity that he has been waiting for for a long time has come. Just in time, Liu Minghua found himself, so he made a request for the script. After reading the script, I only had one thought in my mind: I must play this role. How can I be elegant and not elegant?
How about agreeing without hesitation?
It was obviously a good opportunity to come here today, but Qin Xiaobao was so good at chatting. He kept talking about the script and didn't say a word about the business. He drank three cups of coffee in three hours and didn't want to sleep when he went home at night. As a result,
It's really a director who has retained such skill, I admire him.
Now that they have decided, the four of them are relieved.
"Director Qin, Mr. Liu," Hu Ge drank a glass of wine: "Let's make a gentleman's agreement first. As you know, the contract will not officially end until March, and there is still about a month left. I hope it won't be leaked for the time being.
Already."
"Don't worry about this. Apart from the two of us, no third person in Kiwi will know about it." Mr. Liu assured, patting his chest.
"Well, I can trust you." Lao Hu also mentioned in passing. After all, he is humble and his status is so high. If he really leaks it, it will be a big trouble. I believe Kiwi will not cause too many troubles at this juncture.
"Let me ask, Mr. Hu, do you still have any works that need to be performed at your original agency?" Mr. Liu asked.
"The work is gone, but I still have three endorsements, and there is still more than a year left." Hu Ge shook his head and understood what the other party meant: "However, I plan to go to Europe for a backpacking trip in April.
It will probably last for more than a month, which I have planned for a long time."
Qin Xiaobao remembered that he had seen similar news. Lao Hu liked to travel.
"I'm so envious. If I had to go to Europe by myself, I would probably get lost." He said sincerely: "Besides, it may not be convenient for me to appear there in the recent period."
Everyone laughed, knowing he was talking about the Berlin Film Festival.
"By the way, now that I have decided to join, I would like to ask, when will the movie be shot?"
"It won't be until May when you come back from Europe."
"almost."
"After reading the script, you should also know that there are not many things to prepare, and the shooting cycle will not be too long. In fact, it doesn't matter if you start at any time." Qin Xiaobao took the champagne and poured it for the three of them: "But after I celebrate the New Year, I will
If you want to study in the directing department of your alma mater, it is estimated that the whole process will last for one year. It is difficult to say the specific start time, but if you coordinate well, it will not be a problem."
"Are you going to enter the Magic City Drama Academy?" Hu Ge was surprised.
"Yes, you still have to study."
"I can introduce you to Professor Cai from the directing department. His level is this!" Hu Ge extended his thumb.
"Do I still have a choice?"
"You are a great director. With such an alumnus, even though you joined halfway, I believe the school will give you face."
"The relationship is good, please trouble Teacher Hu." Qin Xiaobao was naturally willing.
"Stop it, Teacher Hu. I really can't afford it. As a director, I have to respect you!" Hu Ge didn't mean to be joking and was quite serious.
