Great Power Reclamation
Chapter 2623 Ye Mao’s New Company
The key is that if you have a few thousand yuan, who would go to court? You know, migrant workers who come to the city are all from families with difficulties.
If an average family can make ends meet, who would leave their hometown, abandon their wife and children, and travel thousands of kilometers to work?
But Grandet spent all his fortune and even sold his house to pay the workers' wages. How bad could such a man be?
So, even though Ningshui's expression was somewhat disdainful, Ye Mao still shook hands with Grandet very solemnly:
"Nice to meet you."
After confirming that this Ye Mao was Ye Mao, the screenwriter of Journey to the West, not only Ning Shui was excited, but even Grandet was excited and immediately wanted to open a new table and drink again.
Ning Shui naturally wanted it more than anything, and the three actresses he brought with him were also busy making arrangements.
In fact, the road to the entertainment industry is the most difficult. There are many beautiful people, but how many of them can actually become famous?
Most art school students become ordinary people after a few years of yearning.
Sometimes I have to admire those people who have been playing supporting roles for decades and are still persisting. They are the ones who truly love art.
But so what? The stage is so small, there are only a few stars, and these people can only take a meager salary and do the hardest and most tiring work.
Because a fight had just broken out and Ye Mao and his men had not eaten enough, they agreed to this matter.
Grandet waved his hand and asked the brothers to go back first. Ye Mao asked curiously who these people were?
Grandet sighed, "They are all from the original crew. They graduated from art schools and couldn't find resources. After signing with me, they thought they could make a big splash, but now they are just extras and they have to support me. They can't even get rid of me."
Ye Mao asked curiously, "Where do you live now? Why are you eating here today?"
Grandet smiled bitterly: "My parents left me a small courtyard, but since we don't have the property rights, we can't sell it, so they all live there with me."
"Brother Yi has accepted a job with lines, right? He had to come to celebrate, so here he comes, right?"
Ye Mao stopped those people and didn't let them leave. Although they had just fought, Ye Mao decided to treat them as friends because they didn't fight back when being beaten by the woman.
This table is quite big, and it was arranged by Grandet. Ye Mao did not stop him, but Ning Shui patted his chest and promised that he would treat everyone.
Ye Mao said nothing and just ate.
It was Wei Jiang who suggested changing the place because the food here was too bad.
The lobby manager looked at him with a strange look in his eyes, but Wei Jiang didn't care. If it doesn't taste good, it doesn't taste good. What's the big deal?
Finally, Ning Shui suggested going to a Chinese restaurant, where there was a wide variety of dishes, including chicken, duck, fish and meat. He also rushed to pay the bill for the three tables.
Ye Mao naturally agreed. After all, there was still one and a half bottles of Moutai left, so he could just take it.
Ning Shui was in charge of ordering the dishes. He was also an old hand at the alcohol test, so he naturally understood why Wei Jiang and the others said the food was not tasty.
It’s nothing more than ordering less seafood and more beef and mutton, and the atmosphere will be created immediately.
It's more lively when there are more people. Ning Shui and Grandet are both masters of rhetoric, and with the addition of the three little stars who know how to create a good atmosphere, the dinner was a very enjoyable one.
Ning Shui's face was almost purple from drinking, but he was conscious and patted Ye Mao's shoulder and begged:
"Brother, today I'm asking you to write a script for me, okay? I will definitely make it to Hollywood if I can film your script!"
Ye Mao shook his head: "Brother, I only know how to change mythological stories. When have you ever seen me learn modern drama?"
Ning Shui shook his head: "You underestimate yourself. You just don't want to write. If you write, it will definitely be a big hit."
"Here's what, bro. If you're willing to write, I'll give you 10 million for a movie script!"
"Fuck!"
Wei Jiang and Malu couldn't help but open their eyes wide, afraid that they had heard it wrong. Was there an extra word? Was it a thousand?
In fact, the current 10 million is nothing to Ye Mao. How could his sister-in-law treat him unfairly after writing so many scripts? All she gave him were US dollars.
However, Ye Mao was still somewhat tempted by the fact that an outsider offered such a high price for the first time he was asked to write a script. As he was thinking, Wei Jiang couldn't help but touch his arm.
"Boss, hurry up and agree to it. That's 10 million, not 1,000."
Jin Wan looked at her man lovingly, then exchanged a glance with her sister, her heart filled with pride. This man would never be ordinary no matter where he went.
She reached out and hit Wei Jiang: "Don't make trouble, let him decide for himself!"
Wei Jiang was too embarrassed to say anything, and didn't even dare to make eye contact with the Jin sisters.
He almost went to rob the boss of a woman. Isn't this courting death? Fortunately, the boss didn't care and just beat him up. Otherwise, he would have suffered.
But when he thinks about it, it doesn't make sense. It seems that he did it because the boss agreed to it, but how can he be reasonable at this time?
Ye Mao thought carefully for a while, and finally nodded:
"Ning Dao, I have a condition. I can write this script, but I want to invest, and I have to take this brother with me."
After saying this, he pointed at Grandet.
Ning Shui was a little embarrassed, frowning and wondering what he was thinking.
Grandet also interrupted at this time: "Brother, I have no money, how can I play?"
Ye Mao patted his shoulder, signaling him not to speak for now and wait for Ning Shui to express his opinion.
Ning Shui finally told Ye Mao about his difficulties with great embarrassment.
"You know, I'm just a director for the company. Although I've gained some fame in recent years, I can't have that much autonomy."
"For example, I can promise you 10 million to write the script, and I can also choose one or two actors, but the real decision-making power lies with the company. I really can't bring Grandet and others with me."
Ye Mao nodded to show that he understood, but asked another question.
"What if I write the script and I invest in it, and you are the director?"
Ning Shui was overjoyed: "That's great, of course. I can also invest 100 million, but this is already my life and property."
Ye Mao laughed and said, "You don't need to take any money. We can use Grandet's company, Ning Dao's fame and technology to make a movie together. But I have to say this in advance. You can be pink, but you won't get paid."
"No problem! No problem!"
The two people spoke almost in unison and were extremely excited.
Grandet saw hope. Although he had no achievements before, by cooperating with these two big guys, even if he did not make any money, it was something he could brag about!
Ning Shui thought more. He was already very famous in the country, but if he wanted to step onto the world stage, he still lacked some luck.
Since cooperating with Brothers Film and Television, Zhang Yimou has been nominated for several Oscars and has become an international strategist.
All he lacked was a chance to step onto the world stage.
In the past, Hollywood was controlled by Westerners, and Chinese films could not enter the market at all, but now it is different. The CEO of Brothers Entertainment is Yuan Fang, who is a Chinese after all, although he has also become a naturalized American. Now he is an important figure in Hollywood.
Others don’t know the relationship between Ye Mao and Yuan Fang, but he knows it, it’s just that they lack the opportunity to meet each other.
But opportunities always come to those who are prepared. Isn't this opportunity here today? And the other party has agreed to cooperate with him. Ning Shui is going to be very successful.
But what he didn't know was that he was just lucky. Ye Mao wanted to help Grandet and he just happened to be there.
Otherwise, this opportunity might have gone to someone else. At least if Ye Mao called, Lao Mouzi would definitely not be able to refuse. After all, Lao Mouzi was much more famous than him.
The three people discussed it carefully and decided on a plan. Although Grandet's company went bankrupt, he did not owe anyone money and his business license was still there.
All they have to do is rent a new venue. In fact, if Ye Mao wants to make a movie, he can just ask Batu for help.
It's just that he just wanted to help Grandet. Besides, he didn't want to rely on anyone else's help to do things and preferred to start from scratch.
Therefore, Grandet's company was changed into three shareholders, with Ye Mao holding 70% of the shares, and Grandet and Ning Shui each holding 15%. In fact, he had the final say.
Ye Mao had no interest in art films. His ideal was to make blockbuster movies like those in Hollywood. After all, he had come into contact with many stunts when filming Journey to the West, and he was fully capable of hiring professionals to perform them.
After discussing everything and drinking to their heart's content, on the way back, Wei Jiang and Malu kept pestering Ye Mao to play a role in the movie.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
Ye Mao didn't even have an idea at the moment, so he couldn't agree to them, so he could only wait for the script to be written.
When they got back home, it was dark again. They would go back to Junken City tomorrow. Ye Mao drank too much last night, so Ouyang Xue and Liu Ling thoughtfully let the Jin sisters live with Ye Mao again today.
Ye Mao actually didn't like this craftsman's bed as he felt very stuffy lying in it, but Jin Wan and Jin Ping couldn't let it go.
Jin Wan hugged Ye Mao's arm and asked, "When will you shoot this movie?"
Ye Mao thought about it and decided to wait until the summer vacation. He couldn’t always miss classes. Even if the school didn’t say anything, he would still feel embarrassed.
Jin Ping put her arm around his other arm and said, "Xiao Maomao, tell me, how much money have you made?"
Ye Mao is one year younger than them, so they always call him Ye Mao.
Although the three of them grew up together, Ye Mao never harmed them, because he was young, and they were also young.
When I could do everything, I couldn't bear to do it anymore. Later, Yun Feiyang came along, and he could be considered my mentor.
Perhaps the emotions of youth are the purest. Even though Ye Mao is a veteran now, he still can't bear to do anything to them.
In fact, how could Ye Mao not understand the desire in their eyes at this moment? But he just couldn't bear it.
For later women, Ye Mao usually had desire first and then feelings, but he didn’t know why?
Every time he faced Jin Wan, he always wanted to keep that beauty, just holding her quietly, thinking of nothing else.
How could they still be so honest after just going through this crisis? They had to do something, otherwise this man would abandon them again at any time.
Having been together since childhood, they know this little man too well, and he has a strong sense of responsibility. Although they can't control the number of rivals, he will definitely take responsibility if something happens.
Many things are learned without a teacher. Although Ye Mao is very determined, the distance between determination and undetermination is too short, and the distance between taking the initiative is even shorter.
So, on this night, after the training plan was successful, they finally broke through something and became people with the same relationship but different from each other.
There was no roaring, no sweating, everything was just like a spring rain, dense and soft, bringing vitality to the land.
No one slept that night. They did a lot and said a lot. The longing for each other for more than a year was fully expressed by their body language.
When the sun came out, there was finally no movement in the house and they fell asleep.
Early in the morning, Liu Ling and Ouyang Xue, as hosts, went out to buy breakfast for everyone.
Knowing that Wei Jiang and his partner love to eat meat, I specially bought beef biscuits, fried liver, and steamed buns.
Wei Jiang and Malu got up on time to eat, but there was no sound in the main room.
Liu Ling and Ouyang Xue did not shout, Wei Jiang and Malu did not dare to shout, the four of them finished their breakfast in silence, and then went to buy groceries to prepare lunch in silence.
As for what to eat for lunch, they discussed for a long time on the way to the vegetable market, and finally decided to have Malu make pilaf.
This is the only meal that Ersha can cook after living in northern Xinjiang for 20 years. Of course, I can't guarantee whether it is good or not.
Lamb, carrots, raisins, onions. I couldn't find the yellow carrot.
The meal took from morning to 12:30 in the afternoon and was finally ready.
At this time, the three people who had been talking all night finally got up.
However, these three people were a bit uncouth. They scolded the meal that others had worked so hard to prepare, the meal that Malu had worked so hard to prepare, as if it was just feeding pigs.
Malu looked aggrieved, but he didn't even dare to fart. He could only pick the good things to serve others, which made Liu Ling and Ouyang Xue laugh secretly.
Wei Jiang, on the other hand, looked nonchalant, and unfailingly helped others pick lamb chops and make tea just for the chance to play a role in Ye Mao's movie.
Malu really couldn't stand it anymore. He didn't dare to show his teeth to Ye Mao, but that didn't mean he couldn't teach Wei Jiang a lesson.
The result was that he was beaten up by Wei Jiang again. There was nothing he could do about it because the young and the old have no human rights.
However, after this incident, Ye Mao had an idea and decided to make a film about special forces.
Most people don't know that the quiet and peaceful world they see is the result of people working hard for you and risking their lives.
In this world, there are conflicts, bloodshed and sacrifices every day.
Others don’t know about these things or these people, but Ye Mao knows. He also knows what his grandparents’ generation did for the frontier.
Therefore, he must write down these people and these stories so that future generations can know about them.
My sister-in-law has filmed military settlers, but what she filmed was how they built the frontier, while Ye Mao is going to film those unknown stories.
This kind of film will definitely be subject to many restrictions, so just circumvent them. At worst, you can just release it abroad.
It will be easy once the goal is set. As for the content, Ye Mao has a lot in his mind. The stories of his grandfather's generation, the experiences in northern Myanmar, and the observations in Somalia are enough material for a movie.
Young people don’t like things that are too realistic, so they just write about mercenaries. After all, some mercenaries have their own ideas. (End of this chapter)
