Chapter 422: Can You Not Come to Me for This Kind of Thing?

Jiang Bai said that at this moment, his face was not red and his heart was not beating. He completely ignored the fact that he had broken Nangong Mingjie's limbs and severed his hand and hamstrings. He didn't know if Nangong Mingjie knew about it. I would tell my grandfather with tears in my eyes: "This guy is a complete liar, telling lies with his eyes open."

But thinking about it, there should be no such opportunity.

After hanging up Nangong Qingyun's call, Jiang Bai was in a good mood. Then he told Situ Feng and told him about his conversation with Nangong Qingyun. He said that he would report it to his superiors and discuss a solution as soon as possible for Jiang Bai. rest assured.

Jiang Bai strolled leisurely on the street, then found a place to order a bunch of meat skewers, ordered two bottles of beer, and ate to his heart's content.

But halfway through eating, Jiang Bai's phone rang. It was Ye Qingcheng.

This made Jiang Bai quite curious. When he answered the phone, it was Cheng Daoyun's voice that came over the other end: "Xiao Bai, if you haven't contacted me for so long, have you forgotten me, an old guy? I'll give you a call." He didn’t answer either. It seems that I, an old guy, have no face. Why did you answer Qingcheng’s call?”

Jiang Bai was speechless about this. In fact, it wasn't that he didn't answer the call. The call he made yesterday when he went to work was broken. Think about it, his clothes are gone, where did the call come from?

This phone was newly bought today. Cheng Tiangang also mentioned this problem this morning. Jiang Bai had already remembered it, but he didn't expect Cheng Daoyun to call him too.

This is a rare visitor. You must know that the last time I contacted Cheng Daoyun was at the premiere of "A Better Tomorrow" a few years ago. Jiang Bai went to go through the motions.

Why are you calling yourself now?

Jiang Bai smiled awkwardly and replied: "Director Cheng, what you said is that my mobile phone broke yesterday and I bought a new one. Not only can you not get through, but no one can get through. I am not the one who forgets his friends after seeing sex. For a person who can get through Qingcheng, I can only say that she is lucky."

"Haha. Okay, okay, whatever you say is what it is. Who made you the boss? By the way, I have something to ask you today!"

Cheng Daoyun laughed, mocked Jiang Bai slightly, and stopped dwelling on this issue.

"You say!"

"It's like this. We have a character here. I really can't think of who should be used, so I thought of you. You are the creator of the script "God of Gamblers". After thinking about this kind of thing, I still think I should use it. You, you are definitely suitable to play a supporting role."

Cheng Daoyun then stated his purpose.

"I said, Director Cheng, I won't do this. I already had enough headaches when I caught you last time. I don't want to do this kind of publicity thing. You should find someone else! Nowadays, young people like to stand out a lot. , your director Cheng’s movie, I don’t know how many people want to participate in it!”

Jiang Bai's words are not a compliment. After the release of "A Better Tomorrow" last time, the response was sensational. The lead actor and director were both hits. Now Cheng Daoyun has become one of the top domestic stars. I don't know how many people want to watch his movie.

How can you make money with them?

There are many young people who are willing to go, not to mention those from outside, and there are quite a few in our own companies.

"Hey, I knew you would refuse, but I still want to give it a try. Because of your situation, I think you are particularly suitable to play Long Wu."

Do you think I'm suitable, or do you think I look like Heisehui?

If Jiang Bai remembers correctly, the person who played this role in his previous life was a black guy, right?

Jiang Bai couldn't help but argue in his heart, but he didn't criticize it and listened quietly.

He knew that there must be more to Cheng Daoyun than just this. This participation in the role and so on were just brought up, and the main event was later.

"It's like this. An old friend of mine wanted a script and found me. We have a very good relationship and have been friends for many years. He asked me to beg him and stayed at my house for a few days. I really can't refuse. , I can only come to beg you."

"The "A Better Tomorrow" you gave me, as well as "God of Gamblers" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" are all excellent scripts. Of course I can't give them to him, so I hope that you, the big boss, will take some time to show your face and help write one. script……"

"Don't worry, the investor he found is not short of money. They just want to make a name for themselves. The price of the script can be several times higher than the market price. It doesn't matter. My old friend said that as long as the script is good, money is not an issue, even if it doesn't make money. Okay, you can make a profit at a loss. It’s just to build the company’s reputation.”

Cheng Daoyun finally revealed his purpose.

At the beginning, Jiang Bai frowned and felt a little unhappy.

Your friend's business is your friend's business. I don't write scripts specifically. I'm the boss of the company. Even if I write, I'm writing for the company. I won't make money by doing it, right?

Want you to take it as a favor?

How can there be such a good thing in this world?

Your Cheng Daoyun relationship with me is fine, but it’s not to the point of making such unreasonable demands, right?

However, as Cheng Daoyun finished speaking, Jiang Bai felt a little relieved, but he was still a little unhappy. This matter seemed to be creeping out.

Cheng Daoyun seemed to be aware of this, and then explained: "This friend of mine is a first-line director in China. He is actually very powerful. It's just that he has been in trouble for several years because of divorce, and he hasn't met anything good in the past few years. The results were dismal after two shots were taken.”

"Now I finally have a chance to make a comeback. Someone came to him to invest in filming for him, and he said he didn't care about the money. He begged me, and I really couldn't refuse. I also knew it wasn't appropriate... but if I could help, , Boss, you’d better help me, if you can’t...then I won’t force you.”

Having said that, Jiang Bai can't be too ungrateful. Moreover, Cheng Daoyun is a good character and has a warm heart. There are not many people in this circle now, so Jiang Bai will still give him some face.

After thinking about it, Jiang Bai said: "Where is your friend now? I happen to have a book on hand. I originally said that I would give it to the company and let our company bid for a very good book. But now that you have spoken, I You can leave it to him. But first of all, I want to get back at least half of the company's profit from this book."

Jiang Bai did have a movie script written, which he did not leave to Yao Lan. It was called "Police Story". Jiang Bai was optimistic about this movie.

However, there is no rush to start filming because there are no suitable actors, and Cheng Daoyun is currently filming two more movies, one is "God of Gamblers" and the other is "A Chinese Ghost Story", which restrains a lot of his energy and cannot be spared in a short time. of.

So I left it alone, but now I can give it to the other party.

However, this is a series of stories, and it is extremely profitable. If the other party is not satisfied with the price, Jiang Bai will not agree. His bottom line is half of the profit.
