Chapter 617 Chapter 618 [Crazy Stone]
After meeting Xia Luo, Xiang Nan immediately flew back to Yanjing.
?As soon as he entered the studio, he saw Qiu Ya sitting in the reception room.
As soon as she saw Xiang Nan, she immediately came out and said, "Yuan Hua, you''re back, thank you for your hard work!"
"What are you doing here?" Xiang Nan asked with a serious look on his face when he saw her.
"Yuan Hua, it was my fault before. I shouldn''t be petty and jealous. Please forgive me." Qiu Ya begged.
Xiang Nan didn''t even look at her, "Xiaoya, tell Sister Ni that in the future, if you don''t have a work permit and you are not a business person, you will block me! This is a company, not a vegetable market. How can you let anyone in and out at will?" "
"Yes, Mr. Yuan." Tong Liyan obeyed the order and hurried out.
?? Qiu Ya looked at Tong Liyan. The new assistant was also so beautiful, but her skin was darker and her figure was a little thinner, but she was really beautiful.
Any female assistant Xiang Nan could find was on par with her, which made Qiu Ya even more unsure of herself.
"Yuan Hua, I really know that I was wrong. Please forgive me once, okay?" She begged bitterly, "I have been with you for five years anyway. Don''t you miss the old relationship at all?"
Last year, after she resigned from Zhichun Studio, she was able to make a living by using Xiang Nan’s supplementary card. Although I have nothing to do every day, my life is very nourishing.
?Later, when Xiang Nan stopped her card, she had to make money on her own. And in this way, she realized how hard it is to make money. She found several jobs, and the highest monthly salary was only two thousand yuan, which was not enough for her to buy a bottle of perfume.
?However, she still held on for several months, hoping to let Xiang Nan see her self-reliance, hoping that Xiang Nan would admit his mistake to her and ask her to go back.
Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan immediately embarked on an Asian tour, traveling all over Asia and not being in China at all. He was even more indifferent to her affairs, which made her a little panicked.
?Later on, after seeing Xiang Nan earn 100 million from a tour and 30 million from a successful movie, she knew that she could no longer be willful. If the fuss continues, Xiang Nan may really forget about her.
At that time, there is really no place for her beside him, and then she will have nothing.
…
"Alas~" Xiang Nan sighed, "I miss my old relationship, but you are always jealous and interfere with the normal operation of the company. If you do this, it will be very difficult for me."
"I was wrong, can''t I change it later?" Qiu Ya quickly begged.
"Do you really know that you are wrong?" Xiang Nan looked at her and asked.
"Um, um, um..." Qiu Ya nodded repeatedly, then came forward and hugged Xiang Nan, "My dear, I really know I was wrong, please forgive me. Give me another chance, next time If I do it again, you don’t need to bombard me, I’ll just leave on my own, okay?”
"Since you said so, I''ll give you another chance." Xiang Nan nodded, "You and Xiaoya will be my assistants together, and you''ll have to practice for two years first."
?Qiu Ya was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
…
??After Qiu Ya returned, she and Tong Liyan served as Xiang Nan''s assistant.
Serving tea and water, driving and holding an umbrella, ordering meals and tickets...all the chores have to be done.
Two people serve as assistants. In fact, the work is not easier than before. On the contrary, there are competitors, which makes the pressure even greater.
Because only by performing well can you be promoted to an agent, of course you must strive to perform well.
There is only so much work, and it is just right for one person to do it. With one more person, the work will not be half as much, so we can only rush to do it. So not only will it not make me feel more relaxed, it will actually make me more nervous.
?Of course, Qiu Ya has another advantage that Tong Liyan cannot match, that is, she lives with Xiang Nan and can provide him with all-round, 24-hour services.
This makes Tong Liyan more anxious.???…
Xiang Nan had no time to care about the overt and covert fighting between the two assistants. After returning to Yanjing, he became busy with his career.
?Last year''s "Waiting Alone" earned a box office of 35 million. The results were really eye-catching and gave Youth Pictures a good start.
?Hence, Xiang Nan is planning to increase his efforts this year and invest in two movies.
One is an urban romantic comedy, "Love Call Transfer"; the other is a low-budget black comedy "Crazy Stone".
"Love Call Transfer" was originally filmed by Xu Zheng in 2007. It tells the story of Xu Lang, who has been through seven years of marriage. After being tired of the ordinary family life, he accidentally got a mobile phone that can summon romantic encounters. From then on, he met many women and embarked on a series of wonderful emotional journeys. Through repeated setbacks, he finally understood the true meaning of love.
This movie was shot with a lot of big names at the time. Song Shu, Gong Beibi, Ning Jing, Bai Bing, Qu Yu, Qin Hailu, Huang Shengyi, Fan Bingbing, Yi Nengjing... can be said to be as beautiful as a cloud.
Xiang Nan believes that this movie is still very suitable for filming now.
As for "Crazy Stone", no more introduction is needed. A representative work of domestic black comedy, with a cost of more than 3 million yuan and a box office of more than 20 million yuan. It completely made the golden pair of Ning Hao and Huang Bo popular.
Both movies are worth investing in.
…
Xiang Nan wrote the script first.
The script of "Crazy Stone" does not need major changes, the original script is already very sophisticated; however, "Love Call Transfer" needs major changes. The original protagonist is a middle-aged man who has been married for seven years and is experiencing the seven-year itch.
At Xiang Nan''s age, he is definitely not suitable. But if he wanted to invite Xu Zheng to act, Xiang Nan didn''t want to miss this good opportunity. After all, good scripts are rare. If you have this opportunity to become famous and make money, of course you have to focus on yourself first.
?Hence, Xiang Nan changed the setting of the protagonist to someone who has been with his girlfriend for five years. He really didn’t have the original passion, so he wanted to try another girlfriend. As a result, after experiencing a series of setbacks, I realized that being ordinary is the real truth.
…
Xiang Nan invited Ning Hao over while he was revising the script, "Brother, do you think this script can be filmed?"
Ning Hao took the script and after reading it, he looked at Xiang Nan in surprise, "Junior brother, your script..."
“What, is the script bad?” Seeing his reaction, Xiang Nan asked doubtfully.
“No, it’s great.” Ning Hao waved his hands, “To be honest, I wanted to write a story like this after I read Guy Ritchie’s “Two Smoking Barrels.”
But I never wrote it out. Unexpectedly, junior brother, you actually wrote it out first. This...this..."
“Hey, it’s very common for the subject matter to collide.” Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, “I didn’t know you were going to write this script. If I had known so, I wouldn’t have bothered.”
?Many movies give people a sense of déjà vu.
?For example, "Prison Heroes" and "Pre-Prison Education" both tell stories about criminals who, before they go to prison, find people for surprise training to cope with the complex prison environment.
??Another example is "Black Panther" and "Thor 3", both of which are about the revenge of a prince. As long as the names of the characters are changed, there is almost no sense of dissonance.
"No, no, your writing is better than mine. I have been writing for three years and haven''t even laid out the basic framework. But your script has been completed." Ning Hao waved his hand quickly.
“Okay, without further ado, would you like to direct this movie?” Xiang Nan said with a smile.
“Of course.” Ning Hao nodded.
