Chapter 76 She's Not So Shallow

Someone knocked on the door softly.

Lu Ping suddenly came back to his senses. For a moment, he was in a trance, and he didn't even know where he was or who he was. After a while, he gradually came back to his senses, and he said slowly, "Come in."

Xia Xiaoyue pushed open the door of the study, glanced at Lu Ping's back, and whispered, "Husband, Sister Gao is here."

Lu Ping made an "oh" and turned around.

Xia Xiaoyue saw his calm expression with a touch of disappointment and depression, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed, she let go of the door handle and approached, standing less than half a meter away from him, reached out and touched his face, "Husband, your face Not feeling well, are you not feeling well?"

Lu Ping smiled, grabbed her hand and put it to his mouth and kissed it gently, then said with a smile, "I'm fine, I was thinking about something just now and lost my mind. I'm fine!" After a while, he said, "You Go down first, entertain Sister Gao, I'll wash my face, and then I'll go down."

Xia Xiaoyue was still a little worried, but after hesitating for a while, she nodded, turned to leave, and then turned around to remind, "Sister Gao is holding a file bag, I'm looking at it bulging."

Lu Ping smiled when he heard the words, and said, "On the side of the company, Lao Zhou put a lot of pressure on her. I guess she can't bear it now. It should be a lot of scripts."

Seeing him smiling, his eyebrows and eyes slowly stretched out, Xia Xiaoyue felt relieved, and smiled, "That's fine, you only need to have some numbers in your heart. I'll still say that, if you are really recent If you don't want to move, just rest for a while and let Sister Gao talk to President Zhou." During the conversation, seeing Lu Ping nodding to indicate that she knew, she smiled, turned and went downstairs

Lu Ping was stunned for a while by himself. Then he got up and went to the bathroom next to him to wash his face. He looked in the mirror for a while, and saw that there were more white hairs on his temples, and he was unhappy.

But after a while, he sighed, but still packed up his mood, simply tidied up his clothes, turned around and went downstairs.

Xia Xiaoyue was sitting with Gao Lanlan in the living room downstairs chatting when she heard footsteps, looked up and saw Lu Ping coming downstairs, both women stood up, Gao Lanlan smiled and said, "Are you afraid of seeing me this time, or are you just annoying me? "

Lu Ping laughed when he heard the words, but didn't answer, came over, motioned everyone to take their seats, and then said, "Neither afraid nor annoyed."

Gao Lanlan smiled and shook his head.

Xia Xiaoyue knew that they were going to talk about business, so she stood up and said to Gao Lanlan with a smile: "Sister Gao, stay for dinner at night, I'll go out and buy some food. Last time you didn't say that you liked the dish I made. Spilled bamboo shoots with oil? I'll make it for you today!"

Gao Lanlan smiled and waved, "No, I definitely won't be here with you today!" As she spoke, she patted the thick file bag on the coffee table and smiled, "If you have issued a military order before coming here, you must report back at night. !"

Xia Xiaoyue nodded to show her understanding, and then smiled: "That's fine, then next time, talk to you, I'll go upstairs to have a look." He got up and walked away while speaking.

Lu Ping glanced at the portfolio and asked, "Old Zhou urged you again?"

Gao Lanlan smiled helplessly, "I can't take it anymore!"

While talking, she patted the portfolio again and said, "Mr. Zhou told me today that his 15 million has been prepared for you for more than a year. If you think it is not enough, he can give you the budget at any time. Double it! 30 million investment! If it is still not enough, he also allows other funds to come in, as long as it does not exceed 20 million!"

Having said that, she spread her hands and said helplessly: "You think, he has said it for this sake, what else can I say? In addition, I have been helping you save books for the past two years, and now it is just me. We have met Lao Liu, and Mr. Zhou helped you choose. Together, we have to have thirty or fifty books. Mr. Zhou asked me, with so many books, is it possible that you don’t have a single one? I ...I really have nothing to say!"

Lu Ping smiled, sighed, sat up straight, reached out and pulled the portfolio over, opened it, and pulled out a thick stack of scripts. Gao Lanlan came over, pointed to the stack of scripts, and said, "The top three books, the first one was chosen by President Zhou, and the last two were chosen by me and Lao Liu over the past two years."

Lu Ping nodded, opened the first book, glanced at the name, and seeing that it was still "The Bearded Man", he threw it aside and opened the second book first.

This is also a martial arts book. It is stated below. It is adapted from a novella martial arts novel published in the 1980s. The original work is called "Three Days and Three Nights of a Bodyguard".

Lu Ping knew that this novel still had a certain influence at the time. It was the starting work of Mr. Du Zhenfu, a famous martial arts master in the 1980s. After this novella, Mr. Du Zhenfu wrote seven or eight novels of martial arts one after another. Novels have established the status of a generation of martial arts masters.

From the mid-to-late 1980s to the present, his novels have been put on the small screen almost without exception, and some have even made two versions in just over a dozen years. "Three Nights" was also bought by the film and television company, but he stretched out a novel with only 50,000 to 60,000 words and adapted it into a TV series with 40 episodes, but so far , There are not many movies adapted from Mr. Lu's works. As far as Lu Ping knows, there are only two, and the box office is not gratifying.

As for the film adaptation rights of "Three Days and Three Nights of a Bodyguard", it is said that it has changed hands several times before, and the script should have been written one version after another, but it has not been finalized until now.

Lu Ping knows that although "Old Well" is a literary film, the box office is actually quite good, and it can definitely make money for the company, but obviously, compared to the big profits of "Ma Mingfengxiaoxiao", this kind of literary and artistic film is not bad. In terms of making money, the film is still a lot worse, so when choosing a script for myself, from Zhou Zhengyang to Gao Lanlan, they are more inclined to let themselves make another martial arts film.

And this version of the script is called "Sword Xiao Yukong".

Just seeing the name, Lu Ping couldn't help frowning. When he saw the screenwriter's signature below, he couldn't help but smile again and said, "Old Willow!" go.

Gao Lanlan raised her eyebrows and said nothing.

Lu Ping put his hand on the rest of the script and wanted to start reading the third book, but stopped, then he sighed, looked up and said to Gao Lanlan: "So, Miss Gao, keep all the books, I'll turn around Take your time, I'll give you an answer in a few days, okay?"

Gao Lanlan smiled thoughtfully, and suddenly said, "What? Isn't she just a woman? Is she really fascinated by you? Is she the only one?"

Lu Ping smiled, his eyes narrowed slightly, he lowered his head and glanced under the coffee table, saw the cigarette and lighter, picked it up, took out a cigarette and lit Gao Lanlan in surprise, "Have you smoked?"

Lu Ping took a sip, spit it out, and said with a smile: "Not much, occasionally take two to relieve boredom."

After a pause, he took another sip, squinted his eyes slightly and exhaled the smoke, and then slowly said: "I like it, I really like it. But I don't think it's crazy, but the more I can't get it, the more I want it. , this feeling... can you understand?"

Gao Lanlan nodded, and at the same time subconsciously raised her head and glanced at the entrance of the stairs. Seeing that Xia Xiaoyue was not there, she said, "Then have you thought about why you can't get it?"

Lu Ping smiled, thought for a while while smoking, shook his head, and said, "It is precisely because I don't know the reason that I feel a little bit of frustration. I don't understand why I don't like her. Or, Where am I worse than Li Qian?"

Gao Lanlan smiled, "Maybe Li Qian is just her shield? Or, Li Qian is not even a shield, but you misunderstood something?"

Lu Ping smiled, but did not refute.

But after a while, he said: "In terms of age, my age is obviously more compatible with hers, no matter how good Li Qian is, after all, he is only a stubborn boy, the two of them are so many years apart, and she has taught him. , can they have a common language? In terms of achievements, although I am not as rich or famous as Li Qian, I still have no problem in keeping her food and clothing. At least I can afford such a big two-storey apartment, which is better than the one she lives in now. Is that little house better? Besides, I know her, she is not someone who loves money! Besides, I am only a concubine when it comes to taking a concubine, and Li Qian's scandals and gossip are flying all over the sky!"

Having said that, the depression on his face smoldered again, so that when he was buried in the smoke, his whole person seemed to have a touch of indescribable decadence.

"In terms of talent, I know that she likes my movies very much. In this respect, Li Qian only has one TV series, so it's not comparable to me, right? And as long as she follows me, I will help her pave the way and let her Being a director and letting her show off her talents, I believe, she is talented, a talent for movies!"

Speaking of this, he spread his arms, his face full of anger, "So, what reason does she have to like Li Qian and dislike me? Could it be because Li Qian is more handsome than me?"

Hearing this, Gao Lanlan laughed, thought about it, and said, "Women's thoughts, it's not easy to analyze it like that, maybe she just likes Li Qian's handsome looks, and Li Qian is rich?"

Hearing this, Lu Ping was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, with a look of disdain, he waved his hand, as if he wanted to throw such ridiculous remarks into the trash, and said, "How is it possible! How could she be Such a shallow person!"

Gao Lanlan pursed her lips, and after a while, said, "But... since she's not that shallow, why did you pursue her by paving the way for her?"

Lu Ping heard the words for a moment, and then tried to distinguish, "I'm just... I'm just..."

Gao Lanlan looked at him with interest, waiting for his argument.

But after a while, Lu Ping sighed and said helplessly: "She is in my heart... Yes, she is a woman like a goddess, apart from my current achievements, I don't know what kind of capital I have to impress her, so, I had to figure out a way from this aspect, in fact, she was very interested at first, and almost agreed to write a book for me, but then..." Having said this, she stopped, indignant.

Gao Lanlan pursed her lips, "Later Li Qian stepped in?"

Lu Ping didn't speak, but it was the default.

And after a while, he said again: "The most obvious feeling is that since Li Qian lent the money to Jingjing through her, her attitude towards me has become more and more distant, and now she has even eaten with me. I don't want to, I personally go to her office to invite her to dinner, and she will refuse me!"

Gao Lanlan laughed again, "Then have you ever thought about it, maybe, she doesn't have no feelings for you at all, or maybe she doesn't have feelings for Li Qian, but just... just maybe because of the talent you have shown so far. , is not enough to make her surrender and make her your woman?"

Hearing this, Lu Ping was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and then, his eyes suddenly lit up, he sat up straight, and forgot to smoke for a while, looked at Gao Lanlan, frowned, and asked, "You Do you think this is possible?"

Gao Lanlan shrugged, "You said, she is a woman, not only so beautiful, but also so talented, it even makes you feel a little ashamed in front of her, so... maybe you need to achieve a little bit bigger, or show some stronger Your talent? Or else, overpowering Li Qian? To make her impress you?"

Speaking of which, she spread her hands and said, "I don't know, I just guessed, maybe I guessed wrong. But I think that since she is so powerful, her vision must be different from ordinary women like us. Right? Since she doesn't love money and doesn't care whether a man is handsome or not, she must value talent the most?"

Lu Ping's eyes flashed frequently, he suddenly raised his hand, pulled the ashtray, and put out the cigarette butt.

After thinking for a moment, he said slowly, "I understand."

Gao Lanlan smiled, but looked at him with a puzzled face, "Understand what? Tell me?"

Lu Ping turned his head to look at her and said earnestly, "Although I have achieved some achievements, it is not enough in her opinion, and maybe in her opinion, Li Qian just hasn't had time to make a movie yet, if he does, he will make a movie. I get it! It turns out that she still thinks my talent is not enough!"

At this time, because of Gao Lanlan's inadvertent introduction to a topic, he seemed to have been completely cheered up. At this time, he stood up and walked hastily around the room, still chanting, "But Li. Qian's "Legend of the New White Snake" although the story is okay~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but when it comes to making a movie, he can... How can Senior Sister Lu decide that Li Qian will be better than me in making a movie?"

Gao Lanlan continued to shrug.

But at this moment, the mobile phone in Lu Ping's pocket suddenly rang.

He took out his mobile phone a little annoyed, and his first action was to hang up, but when he saw the name of the caller, he frowned, but reluctantly pressed the answer button.

Then, his eyes suddenly widened.
