Chapter 39
Chapter 39 contract
Even if Chen Ke received a call from them for a large crew with money and people like “Cultivation”, they would not dare to disclose the matter to the public. Before the filming of the film begins, no one can guarantee that things will not change.
When Gong Xiqiao went to ask Director Wang for leave, Director Wang was eating peanuts and drinking wine with some of the elders in the crew. When he saw him coming in, Director Wang greeted him to drink together.
After drinking two cups with Director Wang, Gong Xiqiao mentioned to Director Wang that she would ask for leave tomorrow.
As the male number one in the crew, Gong Xiqiao’s attitude towards filming, no one can say without conscience that he is not dedicated to his work. If you want to climb a tree, you can climb a tree, if you want to wrestle, you can wrestle, and even let him roll in the mud pool. This spoiled rich second generation never hesitated in the blink of an eye.
So now he wants to take a half-day off, Wang Dao Dang even agreed. As a famous domestic guide, Director Wang naturally has channels to understand the gossip. He knew about the fact that the crew of “Comprehension” had invited Gong Xi Qiao to audition. Now Gong Xi Qiao suddenly asked him for leave, and he didn’t explain the reason, so he guessed vaguely.
The young actor he is optimistic about has such a good opportunity. Director Wang definitely supports it. However, since there are other people present, he is inconvenient to say more. After thinking about it, he euphemistically said: “Young people should seize the opportunity. It’s great that you can stay calm.”
If Gong Xi Qiao preached that he was the male lead actor in “Comprehension”, it would inevitably make people feel that he is impetuous. Director Wang is a bit picky, and he agrees with Gong Xiqiao’s current way of doing things, so he can’t help but exhort a few more words.
“Thank you, Director Wang, I know,” Gong Xiqiao smiled, “It’s late, so you should drink less. Be careful when Aunt Yao finds out about you.”
“Don’t talk nonsense, you kid, she won’t know,” Director Wang had a meal with the wine glass in his hand, and coughed a few times with a guilty conscience. “When my guy asks, don’t talk nonsense.”
Seeing Dao Wang’s strict control of his wife, Gong Xiqiao smiled and got up and said goodbye. The main members of the crew were sitting together for dinner. There must be other things to discuss. He stayed here and didn’t. Too suitable. Although he was also an investor in this drama, since he had said that all powers should be delegated to Director Wang, he had to speak his words, so as not to get a reputation as a backlash soon after he entered the circle.
“Joe Shao…” After Gong Xiqiao left, the screenwriter gave a thumbs up, “It’s been a long time since I saw a young man who can do things like this.” The young artists in the circle now have a lot of tricks. Unfortunately, the emotional intelligence is not enough, and the overall quality is not as good as those artists of more than ten years ago.
“Can the students who can be publicly praised by the Imperial Capital University be smart?” The field affairs have been with Director Wang all the year round. He has gone through a lot of things. What kind of hobbies are usually, that is, he likes to listen to gossip in his spare time. The team only got the role of a male number three. How long has it taken to get to this point now. If there is no real ability, Director Wang would dare to let him be the leading role?”
All of them know how much Director Wang valued the script. He dared to use Gong Xi Qiao, certainly not because of the investment of tens of millions.
“How old are you several hundred years old together, and you still pay attention to the gossip of the juniors?” Director Wang grabbed a peanut with his chopsticks and threw it into his mouth. He laughed and said, “I have a hunch that my play will become a classic that will be praised for decades because of him, and he will also reach another peak because of this play.”
A few old buddies were a little stunned when they heard this. Why did the old Wang value his father Xi Qiao so much? !
However, Lao Wang has indeed made a lot of celebrities popular over the years, even Gu Nan, who is now so popular, is also popular because of her role in Lao Wang’s play. But even Gu Nan, who has a lot of fame abroad, couldn’t make Lao Wang so praised. Gong Xi Qiao was so special?
They didn’t believe that Gong Xiqiao could be better than Gu Nan.
This was the first time Gong Xi Qiao stepped into the Xi’s headquarters building. Looking at the industry elites around him, Gong Xi Qiao pushed the brown sunglasses on the bridge of his nose, and followed Chen Ke into the elevator with two assistants.
In addition to the four of them in the elevator, there were also several Xi’s employees. Someone recognized Gong Xiqiao. Although he looked a little excited, he did not suddenly ask for a photo or autograph.
The elevator stopped on the sixth floor. After the staff watched Gong Xiqiao and his party walk out, a female staff member excitedly said: “Young Master Qiao is so handsome, I am even more handsome than on TV.”
“Yes, the skin on his face is really good, there are no blemishes at all,” another female staff member envied, “Isn’t it said that the artists have to make up every day, the skin is very bad, why is his skin so good? ”
“Because he is my male god,” the female clerk who spoke first patted her slightly flushed cheek, “After I observed it closely, the male god’s face is pure and unprocessed.” Speaking of this, She couldn’t help smiling and holding her face, “The male **** is so perfect, why don’t I love him?”
“Cut, as if you love him, he can look at you more.”
Gongxi Qiao didn’t know that there were two female employees in the elevator that gave him a handsome look. They had just walked out of the elevator, and someone from the crew came to receive them, because the attitude of the other party was too friendly, so friendly that Chen, who had been in the entertainment industry for many years, was so friendly. Kedu somewhat suspected that the various bullying he had encountered before was due to his bad luck.
“Everyone, please go this way,” the female secretary led them to the door of the office, smiled politely at them, and left.
The office door was open, and Gong Xiqiao saw two people sitting inside, one of whom he knew was the assistant named Gou next to Xi Qing.
Gou Tezhu was talking to the person in charge of “Cultivation”. Hearing the movement at the door, he looked back and saw that it was Gong Xi Qiao. He changed his face to smile, “Young Master Qiao?”
“Goute help,” Gong Xiqiao took off his sunglasses and smiled at Goute, “I’m sorry, I disturbed the two of you at work.”
“It’s not an important thing, not to mention it’s finished.” Got helped look at the male Xi Qiao, then looked back at the person in charge, “Are you the male lead who is here to sign today?”
Seeing Goutezhu’s unexpected expression, Gong Xiqiao nodded: “Thank you for the importance of your crew to me.”
The person in charge saw Goutezhu’s polite attitude when facing Gong Xi Qiao, and he knew it, so he smiled and said, “Young Master Qiao is polite. It is our honor that you are willing to cooperate with us.”
Goutezhu did not expect that the crew had chosen Gong Xi Qiao as the actor before he had time to intervene. He took the contract that was about to be signed with Gong Xi Qiao from the person in charge and read it roughly. His treaty is also very fair and just. As for the salary, he doesn’t know the current value of Gong Xi Qiao, so he doesn’t know whether it is appropriate or not, so he didn’t comment on this.
Putting down the contract in his hand, Goute said with a smile: “The boss must be very happy to know that you are here. I have something to do, so I don’t disturb your business, and go ahead.” Knowing that Young Master Qiao is here, how can he talk to the boss? Say.
“Goute help go slowly,” the person in charge sent Gotezhu away and smiled at Gong Xiqiao, “Shao Qiao, Teacher Chen, and two young people, please sit down.”
“Thank you, Manager Zhou.” After Gongxi Qiao and the others sat down, the secretary who had brought them over brought tea in, placed it in front of them, and retired silently.
Manager Zhou smiled. Although he also holds the title of a manager, he is actually only a middle-level manager in the Xi’s headquarters. In front of Gote Help, that is not a heavy word. Taking back the contract that Goot had read on the table, Manager Zhou took out another contract from the drawer and handed it to Gong Xi Qiao with both hands.
Gong Xiqiao took it with both hands, thanked him and handed it to Chen Ke, and then began a polite chat with Manager Zhou.
Manager Zhou, who was still worried that Gong Xi Qiao would not be in contact, the more he talked with Gong Xi Qiao, the more relaxed he was and the better his impression of Gong Xi Qiao.
Anyone who faces a personable, polite and knowledgeable young man can’t help but feel good. Manager Zhou, who originally replaced the B contract with the A contract because of the face of the big boss, now feels that only the A contract does not count as burying Gong Xi Qiao.
There are always people like this in the world who can easily turn a person’s alertness into affinity, make picky into satisfaction, and turn courtesy into a good impression.
When Chen Ke raised his head after reading the contract, he found that Manager Zhou, who was sitting opposite, was already talking and laughing with Gong Xi Qiao, and the closeness and goodwill in the words were so straightforward that he could feel it.
Facing this kind of scene, Chen Ke pulled his mouth slightly, and then said: “Mr. Zhou, the contract you drafted is very reasonable, and we have no opinion.” Where is this reasonable, it is purely generous. The price of this remuneration is based on the price of the big names, which is far higher than Gong Xi Qiao’s current worth.
“Since Teacher Chen has no objections, what opinion does Xiao Qiao have?” Manager Zhou looked at Gong Xi Qiao with a smile.
Chen Ke shook his hand holding the contract. How long did it take to evolve from Xiao Qiao to Xiao Qiao?
“Uncle Zhou is a kind person. Brother Chen said it’s okay. It must be okay.” Gong Xi Qiao took several contracts and signed his name in duplicate. After signing the contract, Gong Xi Qiao handed it back to Zhou. The manager took a copy, stretched out his hand and shook Manager Zhou, “Uncle Zhou trouble.”
Chen Ke wiped his face silently, it turns out that they have also evolved from Manager Zhou to Uncle Zhou?
“Haha, Xiao Qiao, you are polite to say that,” Manager Zhou shook hands with Gong Xi Qiao, “When the filming starts, I will be the producer of this play. If Xiao Qiao arrives, please let me know. I’ll do it.”
“Then I’m welcome,” Gong Xiqiao smiled with a few white teeth, like a good teenager next door.
At the meeting, Xi Qing looked at her watch twice in a row. As soon as the meeting was over, she took the lead out of the meeting room. This positive attitude made the participants stunned. What is the urgent matter for the boss to deal with?
Everyone looked at Gou Tezhu confusedly, seeing the other side’s unpredictable look, and suppressing the curiosity in their hearts, curiosity killed the cat, even if the boss is in a hurry to meet his sweetheart, they can’t control it.
After Gong Xiqiao was personally sent out of the office door by Manager Zhou, he saw Xi Qing standing a few steps away. He turned around and nodded to Manager Zhou, and walked quickly towards Xi Qing.
Manager Zhou stood at the door, staring at the big boss dumbfounded, secretly wondering in his heart, it seems that the big boss and Xiao Qiao are really close friends, otherwise, why would they wait for him?
“Why are you here?” Gong Xi Qiao walked side by side beside Xi Qing, looking at the time, there was still half an hour left before get off work.
“I heard from the assistant that you came to sign today, so I’ll take a look.” Xi Qing pressed the down button of the bright elevator, and looked back at the silent Chen Ke and the other three. “If you are not busy returning to the crew in the afternoon, you and I have lunch together and go back.”
“Okay,” the elevator door opened, Gong Xiqiao walked into the elevator, and said to Xi Qing, who was stepping behind him, “I heard that there is a nice restaurant nearby. I wanted to find a day with you. Go and taste it. Since we all have time today, we might as well go now.”
Xi Qing nodded and stood with Gong Xiqiao.
Chen Ke, who walked to the end, pressed the floor and stood a little further away from the two assistants. Although he didn’t know why, he intuitively told him that Xi Qing shouldn’t like the character of strangers getting too close to him.
A second before stepping out of the elevator, Gong Xi Qiao put on his brown sunglasses again, and then smiled at Xi Qing: “Do you think I am a boss with glasses?”
Chen Ke: Ha ha, your body is only 1.8 meters tall, how about your boss?
It’s a pity that he just finished hehe in his heart when he saw Xi Qing nodded. Turning his head silently, Chen Ke felt that he couldn’t understand the eyes of the rich.
When finally getting in the car, Chen Ke watched Gong Xiqiao get into Xi Qing’s car. He and He Peng and Xiao Yao got into the car arranged by the company.
“Brother Chen, do you think…we have a lot more?” In the quiet carriage, Xiao Yao bravely said the truth.
Chen Ke looked at her numbly: “So what?”
“Why don’t we go and eat dinner?” Xiao Yao shrank her neck, “I don’t even dare to eat properly when I see President Xi. I must take digestive medicine after I go back.”
Chen Ke wiped his face and didn’t want to speak again, as if he could eat well.
Five people, a table full of dishes, the dishes are very rich, but three people can’t eat it. Xiao Yao looked at Gong Xi Qiao, who had a good appetite and was still chatting with Xi Qing leisurely, with a sense of admiration in her heart. She deserves to be Young Master Qiao. She will not be stage fright in front of anyone, even if it is Master Xi. , Can also be so comfortable.
“You are the male lead in “Cultivation”?” Xi Qing picked up a chopstick, and Xi Qiao thought it was delicious. “I heard that the screenwriter of this play had decided to star in the male lead two days ago. I photographed the table with the crew, but she didn’t expect that she was fancying you.”
“Is there anything else?” Gong Xi Qiao widened his eyes with interest. “No wonder the male lead has been fixed so soon.”
Xi Qing smiled, using public chopsticks to pick up a piece of honeyed pork ribs that Gong Xiqiao liked and put it on his plate.
He smiled and picked up the ribs, and Gongxi Qiao finished it with relish, “Fortunately, the screenwriter won, otherwise I might not be the male lead of this drama.”
The corners of Xi Qing’s mouth moved and did not speak.
If Gong Xi Qiao really likes this drama, then no matter who in the crew likes or hates, the ultimate hero will only be him.
It’s a pity that Xi Qing couldn’t say this, because he always felt that saying this was a shame to Gong Xi Qiao’s ability.
“But with you, the number one big fan, I am more competitive than others,” Gong Xi Qiao smiled and his eyes curled up, showing a trace of pride, “If I lose the competition, I can still find you as a backer. , Help me grab that male lead.”
“It’s a pity that you are too good, my backer is useless.” Xi Qing also clipped the last piece of honeyed pork ribs to Gong Xiqiao.
With the chopsticks stretched out in the air, Chen Ke abruptly turned his hand, and put a dish he didn’t like into the bowl with the chopsticks.
In the eyes of this uncle Xi, there are probably only two people on this table, that is, he and Xiao Qiao. As for the three of them, it is equal to not having them.
But fortunately, this master Xi was very polite and did not show the slightest look of despising them. On the contrary, when ordering food just now, he was very polite to ask their opinions.
But despite the other party’s demeanor, he could still feel that for Xi Qing, only Gong Xiqiao really needed attention.
Having seen too many complicated things in the circle, Chen Ke couldn’t tolerate Chen Ke not thinking too much, but seeing the natural appearance of the two getting along, Chen Ke felt that he was thinking too much.
The most important thing is that Xiao Qiao is not easy to suffer. So after this recognition, Chen Ke has a lot of confidence.
