Chapter 89 I really have one thing to ask you for help (please subscribe and vote monthly!)
Jiang Bai withdrew his spear and leaned on the ground with a smile: "Brother Angkor, I accept the concession."
After the two competed, Zhao Wenzhuo's side burst into applause. The sparring just now was really wonderful. He kept watching intently during the process. He saw every move of the two, and he couldn't do it if he succeeded.
He was guaranteed to win over Wu Jing in a short period of time. If he faced Jiang Bai, he probably wouldn't have much chance of winning.
"It's amazing. I admire you. Brother Jiang, your skills are superb. No wonder Brother Zhuo praises you so much." Wu Jing said with a smile, not at all distressed by having faced Jiang Bai twice and being defeated twice.
angry.
Now, all that was left in his heart was happiness and heartiness.
"Senior brother, do you want you to come and practice too?"
After Wu Jing lost, he handed the spear in his hand to Zhao Wenzhuo.
As a result, Zhao Wenzhuo did not pick him up: "I'll forget it, I can't beat him."
Zhao Wenzhuo waved his hands and said with a smile: "We have practiced many times before when we were on the crew, and I lost every time."
Seeing this, Wu Jing immediately complained loudly: "Senior brother, you are so unreasonable. Jiang Bai is so powerful and you didn't even tell me, causing me to brag for a long time. Isn't this unacceptable?"
Are you seeing a joke?"
Who knows that Zhao Wenzhuo doesn't mind Wu Jing's complaint at all: "You can't say that. Jiang Bai doesn't know your details, so of course I can't tell you too much, otherwise wouldn't it be equivalent to cheating?"
"Okay, let's just stop here today, let's go and have tea!"
Wu Jing leaned the gun in his hand against the wall and walked back into the room. At the same time, he was also thinking about who among the people he knew was good at shooting and could practice with Jiang Bai.
But after thinking about it, the only ones he could think of were his master at Shichahai Sports School and the master of spears that Zhao Wenzao worshiped when he first started practicing martial arts.
However, the aftereffect after sparring with Jiang Bai was that his hand holding the tea cup kept shaking when he was drinking tea.
In the afternoon, Jiang Bai chatted here again, exchanged contact information with Wu Jing, and then left. He did not stay here for dinner because he had other things to do.
This time, I only received 1 million yuan of investment from Zhao Wenzhuo and Wu Jing verbally. There is still 1 million yuan left to settle, and the distribution and theater chains have not yet been settled.
In these two aspects, Zhao Wenzhuo and Wu Jing are not of much help. Although their reputations are not bad, it is another matter once these two aspects are involved.
Because no matter how well-known the two of them are now in the Mainland, there is still a certain gap between them and the capital.
So Jiang Bai planned to find Xu Qingdong next.
When he first returned to Yanjing, he called Xu Qingdong to greet him, and learned that the other party had just finished filming a new suspense-type spy film, and he didn't have much to do now.
So after he came out of Zhao Wenzhuo's house, he called Xu Qingdong. When he learned that the other party was at home, he proposed that he would go and visit.
Xu Qingdong originally planned to just give Jiang Bai a compliment, but he didn't expect Jiang Bai to be so successful that he immediately became the leading male actor in the world and later starred in many big-budget dramas.
In addition, Jiang Bai would call him whenever he had time to keep in touch with him, so he gradually regarded Jiang Bai as a junior he could befriend.
It's just that Jiang Bai went back to the company before going, copied the script of "Diamond" again, bought some fruits and supplements in the supermarket near his home, and then went to Xu Qingdong's home with ease.
"Jiang Bai, you're here. How are you doing? Are you busy?"
"It's okay. Where are you, Director Xu?"
"I've just finished my work and I plan to take a good rest these days, but you can come as soon as you come. What else do you need to bring?"
"It's okay, just eat slowly. Eating more fruits is also good for your health. Director Xu, you are busy on the set all day long, so you won't be able to take care of eating these."
Jiang Bai put the purchased supplements and fruits on the table as he spoke.
"What's wrong? Do you have any business with me this time?" Xu Qingdong asked.
Jiang Bai nodded: "Director Xu, I really want to ask you for something this time. Our company is currently preparing a movie and plans to start shooting next year. We have already received a lot of investment, but we still want to ask for your help.
Let’s see if this script works.”
As he spoke, he handed over the "Diamond" script in his hand.
After Xu Qingdong heard this, he glanced at Jiang Bai with some confusion: "Where's Xiao Zhao? Isn't Xiao Zhao the boss of your company? He is the screenwriter. He should be able to tell whether a script is good or not.
"
Jiang Bai sighed: "Well, although Brother Zhao is also a senior screenwriter, after all, he has to invest in the film himself. Although he felt good after watching it, he was a little unsure, so I thought about asking Director Xu again.
Ask."
"Fine."
Xu Qingdong did not refuse. After all, both Jiang Bai and Zhao Zhe were old acquaintances of his.
Then he opened the script and briefly browsed the plot.
"This is a comedy with a realistic core. Overall, it's pretty good. It's just that the content of the script is a little immature and could be polished, but overall there's no big problem. The screenwriter who wrote this script is pretty good, but
I guess I just don’t have much experience.”
"Does Director Xu think this movie will suffer a loss if it is shot after polishing?"
Xu Qingdong thought for a while: "I can't guarantee you this. Whether a movie loses money or not depends on whether the director you find is reliable and how good the actors' acting skills are. This kind of low-cost comedy is very demanding on acting skills. There are
There are quite a few little characters, so the actors have to portray the postures of these little characters.
Props and scenes must be used properly. If these conditions are met, you will definitely not lose money, and you will definitely make some money."
Jiang Bai nodded after hearing this. Xu Qingdong is a senior figure in the industry. Although what the other party said cannot be guaranteed to be 100% correct, it is definitely authoritative.
But this time Jiang Bai came over to let Xu Qingdong read the script just by the way.
After finishing the script, Jiang Bai directly talked about the preparation of the film: "Oh, Director Xu, I used to get paid to shoot other people's works, and I used the money to do things. If I take the filming seriously, it won't be a problem. But,
Now that I have started making movies, I realize that this is really troublesome."
"Yes, there is a difference between doing it yourself and taking pictures for others." Xu Qingdong nodded, obviously he understood this deeply.
Then Jiang Bai chatted with the other party about the preparations for the movie, which led directly to the meal.
Wang Qian also came at this time. Jiang Bai greeted him warmly when he saw her. When Wang Qian saw Jiang Bai here, she directly invited Jiang Bai to stay for dinner.
"This...otherwise I'd better go back."
"It's okay, let's have a meal and let's have some drinks by the way. I just don't know how you drink." Xu Qingdong said.
"My drinking capacity can only be said to be average.".
"It's okay, then we can drink less."
So Jiang Bai stayed here to have dinner.
I have to say that Wang Qian looks heroic, but she is a good wife and mother at home, and the food she cooks tastes great.
Jiang Bai and Xu Qingdong drank one cup after another, and while they drank, they talked about the preparations for the movie.
"Brother Zhao has been so worried about this movie recently that he is almost bald. He went out to treat people to dinner and visit people, but in the end, the distribution and theaters still failed to get it."
"Alas." Jiang Bai sighed as he spoke.
At this time, Xu Qingdong had already drank half a catty, his face was red, and his words were a bit tongue-tied.
"Hey, it's really difficult to make a movie. I also found a lot of connections when I was filming for the first time. Anyway, Jiang Bai, I'm very optimistic about you. If you need any help, just tell me and I will definitely help you.
help."
Jiang Bai perked up after hearing this. This was what he was waiting for!
"Director Xu, I really want to ask you for help with something."
"What's up?"
"I'd like to ask you to serve as a consultant on our film."
