Chapter 182 Director Kong Yao
"Disaster romance movie." Chen Feng responded lightly, and then told her the general plot of Titanic.
After hearing this, Xu Menglei said thoughtfully, "I think of a person, but he may not be willing to take the photo."
"who?"
"Kong Yao, although his influence is not comparable to those authoritative directors, he is second only to those six people. I was fortunate enough to work with him as an assistant director before, and I am fairly familiar with him, but he He is extremely strict when selecting scripts, and I'm worried that he won't be willing to film them."
"Don't want to shoot?" Chen Feng said with a smile: "Okay, Sister Lei, help me ask him out, and I will talk to him personally."
Seeing how confident he was, Xu Menglei couldn't help but ask, "Are you so sure?"
"Of course." Chen Feng believes that no director can reject the script of Titanic, not to mention that the other party is not from the Big Six, so what if it is?
"Okay then, I'll try to ask him out."
. . .
On the other side, in a community in Tianjing City, a middle-aged man with elegant temperament was sitting on the sofa and browsing the latest entertainment news. The ones that concerned him the most were undoubtedly the box office of "Awkward" and "Chinese New Year" At first, he didn't care about the movies released during the Spring Festival. After all, it was said that this "Big Six" director existed, and he would definitely have no problem sweeping the Spring Festival.
It wasn't until one day that he heard that "Unfortunately" had defeated Guan Sheng, and the key was that the director of this film was Zhang Hai, that he began to pay attention to this information.
Just when he was lost in thought, a rapid ringing of the phone rang.
"Hey, Happy New Year, Director Kong. What have you been busy with lately?"
It turned out that this middle-aged man was the well-known director Kong Yao. When he heard the voice on the phone, he chuckled and said: "Happy New Year, Xiaolei. I haven't been filming recently. I'm resting at home. What about you? What are you busy with recently?" "
"Me? I just received a movie script recently and am in the process of selecting suitable actors."
"Oh? Congratulations to you, you've been an assistant director for so long, and now you've finally made it." After hearing the news, Kong Yao gave a symbolic courtesy, and then asked: "You're sure to call me." Should you have something else to do? If you encounter any problems with the movie, you can just tell me."
"No, it's not about the movie, but it's also related to the movie. Director Kong, didn't I recently join an entertainment company called Xinghai? Our boss has a movie that he wants you to direct. I don't know if you have any schedule. without?"
After saying this, Xu Menglei seemed to be afraid that the other party would refuse, and quickly added: "Don't refuse in a hurry. Our boss wants to talk to you in person. Do you have time in the afternoon?"
Kong Yao did not answer in a hurry. Instead, he checked the information of Xinghai Entertainment on the Internet. It was not until he saw Chen Feng's name that he remembered that the other person seemed to be the screenwriter of "The Lost Journey".
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little interested in this person, and then agreed: "Okay, please tell me the address."
Xu Menglei's face lit up on the other end of the phone, "Do you agree? Let's meet at xxx coffee shop at two o'clock in the afternoon?"
"Can."
. . .
"How was it? Did he agree?" As soon as Xu Menglei hung up the phone, Chen Feng approached her expectantly and asked for the result.
"Yes, agreed."
"Great, let's go over there to meet him in the afternoon."
"Okay", Xu Menglei nodded, "The director's problem has been solved, should we discuss the casting issue of (I am not the God of Medicine)?"
"Of course, the main character Cheng Yong in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" will be played by Brother Bo, I will play Lu Yiyi, Fang Yu will play Peng Hao, and the single mother Liu Sihui will play Zhao Ying. After all, I am familiar with her. . As for Zhang Changlin, leave it to Brother Qiang. As for the pastor, I plan to ask Zhou Tianwang to make a guest appearance. Do you think that’s okay?”
Hearing him mention Zhou Tianwang, Xu Menglei frowned unconsciously, "Everyone else has no problem, but if Zhou Tianwang is asked to be a guest pastor, are you sure he can agree?"
"Don't worry, at worst, I will give him a song as payment, and he will definitely not refuse."
"Okay, since you're so sure, let's make it a deal. It would be great if he really can make a guest appearance."
. . .
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Kong Yao arrived at the coffee shop he had made an appointment with Xu Menglei on time, and then, under the guidance of the waiter, he came to the door of a private room.
When he entered the box, he first greeted Xu Menglei with a smile, and then looked at the young man aside.
When Chen Feng saw the other party looking at him, he quickly stood up from the sofa and introduced himself: "Hello, Director Kong, I am Chen Feng."
Although Kong Yao had already seen the other party's information on the Internet, when he saw Chen Feng in person, he couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect you to be so young. It's really better to meet in person than to be famous."
"Haha, thank you, Director Kong, for the compliment. To be honest, almost everyone said this after meeting me."
Then the two of them exchanged a few polite words, and Kong Yao took the lead and said seriously: "The polite words are almost done, it's time for us to talk about business. I heard from Xiaolei that you have a script that you want me to direct. I think she must have told you too. , I’m not good at filming any scenes, so could you please show me the script first?”
"Of course. In fact, I also like your style very much." Chen Feng's words are true. He has never paid special attention to ability when looking for a director. Attitude is the most important thing, just like Zhang Hai before.
After saying that, he took out the script he had prepared in advance from his bag and handed it to the other party. Then he sat back on the sofa and quietly waited for the results.
Kong Yao took the folder and stared at the five characters (Titanic) on the cover for a while before officially opening the script.
As time went on, his expression became more and more excited. As a director, Kong Yao knew the preciousness of this script. If it were filmed, it would definitely win awards, and maybe even rely on this drama. Rushing into the ranks of authoritative directors in one fell swoop.
Thinking of this, he suddenly raised his head and said, "I accepted this play."
"Huh?" Xu Menglei was surprised, obviously not expecting it to be so simple.
Compared with her, Chen Feng acted very calmly, as if he had expected this result.
"Don't you ask about the remuneration first?"
Kong Yao shook his head, "Compared to an excellent movie, remuneration is not that important."
His answer made Chen Feng couldn't help but admire: "Director Kong's pattern is indeed unusual, but I can't let you suffer, right? I'll give you the remuneration according to the market price, do you have any objection?"
Kong Yao stared at the young man in front of him and said sincerely: "I can now understand why the Internet is praising you so much. To be honest, that movie alone (People on the Road) was enough to surprise me. I didn't expect you to also praise me." There are better scripts.”
