Huayu became famous overnight

Chapter 73 Someone Starts to Miss You
The three of them put their hands together.

Xu Ming's mind went blank for a moment, and he felt that the other party had walked into the wrong set.

Song Jiang was trying to subdue Lin Chong when Hu Erniang came over and said she wanted to swear brotherhood in Peach Garden. What a mess.

"You... were eavesdropping at the door?"

Xu Ming looked at Xue Xiaolu and asked hesitantly.

Mainly because I never thought that a professor could do such a thing.

"Although Guo Fan is from the Department of Management, he is also a student of Beijing University of Electronic Science and Technology. I have the obligation to protect the interests of students." Xue Xiaolu said with confidence.

"Okay, I believe it."

Xu Ming was too lazy to investigate the underlying cause.

It was a pleasant surprise to capture an SSR hero and also receive an SR as a gift.

And Guo Fan looked skeptical.

It seemed that Professor Xue next to him was more deeply moved by his speech just now.

The other party's later film "Beijing Meets Seattle" performed well at the box office.

It is considered one of the few successful romance film IPs in mainland China.

If it weren't for Wu Xiubo's problems, it could have continued.

It can be said that it specifically plays the female card.

After all, cheating can be filmed as romance, and paper mounting can be filmed as the pursuit of true love.

How many directors can do this?
The season that suits her is still to come. As feminist ideas grow stronger, it will be easier for films about women to be successful.

"It's a pity that we can't cooperate this time." Xue Xiaolu sighed.

She admired Xu Ming very much, and his image was also very likable.

"Let's work on the next movie after you finish this one, then we can work together again." Xu Ming said with a smile.

"Okay, it's a deal."

Xue Xiaolu patted Xu Ming's hand gently: "Don't stand me up when the time comes."

"I'm not that kind of person."

Xu Ming forced a smile and answered with a double meaning.

After saying that, he pulled his hand away and said to Guo Fan, "Since the preliminary intention has been reached, let's stop bothering Professor Xue and go out to talk."

"Oh, okay." Guo Fan responded.

Said goodbye to Xue Xiaolu reluctantly.

He walked out of the office quickly, without stopping, and stopped only outside the campus.

Alas, it is said that to be successful, one must possess two qualities.

One is able to do what others cannot, and the other is able to endure what others cannot endure.

Xu Ming suddenly realized that he didn't seem to want to succeed that much.

From this point of view.

He had to show his respect to Huo Siyan and Jiang Yiyan.

"Mr. Xu, I want to ask, are you sure you want me to be the director?" Guo Fan couldn't help but confirm.

"Of course, what else can I want from you?" Xu Ming asked back.

Guo Fan thought about it and realized that there was really nothing worth worrying about.

"But I can't train you for nothing. You have to sign a contract with our company. But don't worry, the contract benefits are absolutely generous." Xu Ming said.

Hearing this, Guo Fan actually felt relieved.

He would be afraid if pie fell from the sky.

"Then how many years can this contract be signed for?" Guo Fan asked.

"at least……"

Xu Ming observed Guo Fan's expression and said, "It will take about five years."

The latter's face changed, and he seemed reluctant.

"Three years?"

His face became even uglier.

"What do you say."

Xu Ming was a little angry. He had signed an eight-year contract with Benshan Media.

Are people nowadays so impetuous?
"I think it will take at least ten years. The directing industry itself is unstable. Since you are willing to spend time and money to train me, signing a three to five year contract is too short."

“And I think a stable, long-term contract would be better for the development and growth of a new director.”

Guo Fan argued that as a native of Shandong Province, even if he did not have a regular job, he still had to pursue stability.

As he spoke, his voice gradually became softer. The sight of Xu Ming, who was frowning in thought (but inwardly ecstatic) across from him, made him a little afraid to continue.

"Actually, I can accept five years..."

"Okay, ten years is ten years."

Xu Ming agreed without hesitation. This guy really wanted to live out his retirement here with him.

I only signed for eight years.

But welcome.

If he doesn’t finish filming “The Wandering Earth 10”, he won’t be able to retire.

"Mr. Xu, I will try my best to live up to your expectations."

Guo Fan was deeply moved. The optimism of a big shot like Xu Ming towards him was undoubtedly a huge encouragement.

"That's not necessary. Just don't regret it later." Xu Ming paused, "Of course if you have achieved results, your salary will not be reduced."

He knew that Guo Fan definitely didn't think so much at the moment.

He had to say it in advance.

After agreeing on a time to go to the company to sign the contract, Xu Ming watched Guo Fan leave.

Only when he saw the other person walking away did he slap his thigh hard.

Damn, I've become soft-hearted.

The contract should start from 2 years, maybe he can also shoot "The Wandering Earth " here.

But then again, it’s not good for people to be too greedy.

Leave some room for both parties.

……

A week has passed.

Under Xu Ming's instructions, Tang Sheng rented an office in Tuanjiehu.

It's a pity that I was reborn too late.

Otherwise, it would be nice to be the richest man in Tuanjiehu.

After Guo Fan signed the contract.

"So Young" was also officially launched.

Xu Ming gave a rough framework for the script, and the remaining details were left to the screenwriter team and director Guo Fan to fill in.

In terms of public opinion.

He always watched from the sidelines.

Allow Zhang Weiping to send people to jump around in the media.

Even the crew members who didn't show their faces came out to expose themselves in a mysterious manner.

He talked about how he bullied the weak on the set and how he took the initiative to get close to him, but was turned away.

After the recording was exposed, there was another wave of criticism against him.

But Xu Ming recognized the owner of the voice oppressed by fat as soon as he heard it.

Isn't she just the cube lady from the makeup team?

I just don't want to enter the tiger pose, why are you so cold...

Even so, Zhang Weiping actually took the initiative to call him.

"Xiao Xu, the crew needs you to record a theme song. Please clear your schedule for a week on the 9th."

"By the way, the song you wrote for Love Is Not Blind was pretty good. Write one for the crew as well."

Zhang Weiping spoke in a tone like he was ordering a servant around.

Xu Ming laughed out of anger: "Producer Zhang, there is no requirement in our contract to cooperate with the crew to record the theme song. How much do you plan to offer?"

"Besides, I don't write songs very often right now. Of course, given our relationship, how about giving me a 50% discount and 200,000 yuan per song?"

Under normal circumstances, actors will usually cooperate with the crew to record songs for promotion.

It would be fine if the other party's tone was nicer, but it was like he was ordering his grandson.

Of course Xu Ming refused to serve.

As for songwriting, one hundred thousand for a song is already the top price among the top in the industry.

He offered 200,000, which was a clear rejection of Zhang Weiping.

On the other end of the phone.

Zhang Weiping was stunned for a moment, then said gloomily, "Xiao Xu, are you negotiating terms with me?"

"What else can I do? I can't have a relationship with an old man like you, right?" Xu Ming sneered.

"do you know……"

Zhang Weiping wanted to say something harsh, but stopped halfway.

Xu Ming, who was recording, was very disappointed.

This old guy is so smart.

"Know what?" Xu Ming asked inducingly.

"Haha, don't play that trick on me. Uncle Ping has eaten more salt than you have eaten rice." Zhang Weiping sneered.

"Then why didn't it choke you to death?"

Xu Ming stopped pretending, "Some things are almost over. Stop now. I will forgive you for what happened. Otherwise, you might end up getting burned."

There is no core conflict between him and Zhang Weiping.

To be honest, he couldn't understand why the other party pushed him out as a publicity sacrifice.

"It would be better if you had your master tell me this, you little jerk, just forget it."

Zhang Weiping sneered and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't want to cooperate. I believe you will figure it out soon."

Listening to the busy tone in his ear, Xu Ming's face was expressionless.

Now he understands.

There is no conflict between the two, it's just that the other party looks down on him.

"It's not even Mid-Autumn Festival yet, why are some people already missing each other?"

A faint sigh, accompanied by a biting chill.
