Feng Pants has been very proud recently. When he came to Tangting Culture, his feet were floating.

"What's the matter, so happy?" Wu Jianye sat in the office and asked with a smile as he watched Feng's trousers not touching the floor.

"Hey, Mr. Wu, I'm officially the art designer of the center now!" Feng Pants happily went to the refrigerator and took out a can of Jianlibao for himself, and said with a smile.

Ever since I met Wu Jianye, Feng Pants has come to Tangting Culture more often, sometimes with Feng Xiaolong and others, and sometimes by himself.

Because Feng pants found that Wu Jianye was different from other people. Although he is now actively entering the circle of Wang Shuo and others, he always feels inferior in that circle, and it may also be because of his background that makes those people feel inferior. People don't treat themselves very well.

But Wu Jianye is different here. Although Wu Jianye is also a member of that circle, and even a very famous existence in that circle, he has never yelled at him, and he sincerely treats himself as a friend.

People are like this, they like to drill into a more comfortable circle, and Wu Jianye's circle is really too big, not just the Beijing circle, the previous screening of "The Last Emperor" at Yan Film Studio , Feng Pants also went, seeing Wu Jianye standing there chatting and laughing happily with a group of domestic bigwigs, let alone envy in my heart.

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Is it possible that the center is already preparing to shoot Haiyan's "Plainclothes Police"?"

Feng Trousers showed a surprised expression: "Mr. Wu, you are amazing, you know this?"

Wu Jianye, who has long been accustomed to Feng Pants' way of speaking, smiled, "What's so strange about this, Zheng Xiaolong had already mentioned this matter when he came here, now seeing how happy you are, you still don't care about it." Is there anything difficult to guess?"

Feng Trousers gave Wu Jianye a thumbs up: "If you say Mr. Wu, you can make movies like "Raise the Red Lantern" and "The Last Emperor", you are awesome!"

Wu Jianye smiled helplessly: "You, you should be busy at this time, why did you think of coming here?"

Feng Trousers smiled and said, "Happy, I am also a daughter-in-law who has become a mother-in-law for many years, just like talking to someone happily."

Otherwise, Feng Pants can be a man. If he said this, that person would be very enthusiastic after hearing it.

Wu Jianye said: "Well then, since you are happy, how about some people come out to help you celebrate tonight?"

Although it was in the form of a question, both Wu Jianye and Feng Kuo knew that the matter was settled like this.

Sure enough, Feng Pants said happily: "That's a good relationship."

Then Wu Jianye asked Feng Trousers to call Zheng Xiaolong, Wang Shuo and others, telling them to get together at night and celebrate Feng Trousers by the way.

After they received the call, they said that there was no problem, and they would be there on time at night, but Wang Shuo asked casually if they wanted to find someone else.

Wu Jianye said it was casual.

Seeing that Wu Jianye could summon everyone with a single phone call, Feng Pants looked at Wu Jianye with some envy. He now feels that Wu Jianye is like the leader of the martial arts in a martial arts novel. Be there now.

But Feng Pants is more happy, after all, Wu Jianye called these people out this time to celebrate himself.

After thinking for a while, Feng Kuo said: "Mr. Wu, Haiyan and I also know each other. He is also in Yanjing now. Do you want to call him too?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "This is for you to celebrate, you can call whoever you want!"

"That's it!"

Feng Pants happily picked up the phone from Wu Jianye's office again, and called Haiyan, asking him to be there on time at night. When Haiyan heard that it was Wu Jianye's treat, he also said that he would be there on time, which made Feng Pants feel even better. You have face.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Feng Pants is still a little unconfident. Although becoming an official artist is a big improvement for him, the status of an artist in the entire crew is actually not much higher than that of a sundry, but Haiyan is different. Not only the screenwriter of this TV series, but even the TV series "Plainclothes Police" is adapted from Haiyan's novel of the same name.

Calculated according to the current normal cast level, Feng Pants belongs to the bottom of the pyramid, and Haiyan is the existence at the top of the pyramid.

Now that Feng Trousers can invite Wu Jianye to celebrate for him, when Haiyan comes, look at his circle of friends, and wait for him to go back to promote, Feng Trousers' status in the crew will definitely rise immediately.

While the two were chatting, a girl in professional attire from this era, with a ponytail on her face, knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mr. Wu, there is a Mr. Zhang Yimou outside who says he is your classmate."

The girl's name is Xia Xiaohong. She is a student of Yanjing Communication University who just graduated this year. She didn't go to work because of her good work unit and insisted on working in Tangting Culture. Wu Jianye asked her why she came to Tangting Culture.

Tangting Culture is the first private cultural company in Yanjing, and the boss of the company is a great director like Wu Dao. I believe that Tangting Culture will have a very good prospect, so I hope to learn new styles here. work experience!
After Wu Jianye heard it, he was also slightly taken aback. He didn't expect this girl to look young, but she was quite thoughtful. After thinking about it, I really lacked an assistant and secretary here, so I kept her here.

She would not stop frequent visitors like Feng Pants, but she would still come to ask for instructions in person when unfamiliar faces came to the company.

"Old Mouzi is here?" Wu Jianye laughed and said, "That is indeed my classmate, please invite him in!"

Xia Xiaohong went out with Wu Jianye's order.

After a while, Zhang Yimou, with a cropped haircut, dressed in an honest sky-blue fabric, and wrapped in a military coat, came in. Along with him was a man in the middle with a bald head who looked very bold.

"Old Wu, the airs are getting bigger and bigger now. If I want to see you, I have to make an appointment in advance!" Zhang Yimou walked into Wu Jianye's office and started complaining.

Wu Jianye ignored him, and directly said to the middle-aged man who came in with him: "Director Wu, welcome!"

Coming here with Zhang Yimou is Wu Tianming, who is known as the godfather of the fifth generation of directors and is now the director of Xiying Studio!
Wu Tianming had the candor of a man from Northwest China, he laughed and said, "Director Wu, do you know me?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "I've seen Director Wu's photo, but I didn't expect Director Wu to be more imposing than the one on the photo!"

Wu Tianming: "Speaking of aura, Director Wu, you are really imposing. When I came to your office just now, I took a look. You are more imposing here than some studios!"

After the two sat down, Wu Jianye introduced Feng Trousers to them. Feng Trousers smiled and greeted Zhang Yimou and Wu Tianming.

Wu Jianye glanced at Feng Pants and Zhang Yimou. This should be the first meeting between the two, and the two have been competing with each other in later generations. In addition, Zhang Weiping, who was next to Zhang Yimou at that time, contributed to the flames, making it even more lively.

At that time, Zhang Weiping relied on Zhang Yimou to fight against the sky and the air, and almost beat all the big shots in the industry. Later, Zhang Yimou and Zhang Yimou broke up because of funding problems.

According to a movie by Feng Pants, after the two broke up, it was a mess
Zhang Yimou, who left Zhang Weiping, is still the top director in the industry, while Zhang Weiping danced for a while when the two separated, and then disappeared without a trace in the circle.
"Old Wu, you're quite impressive here. I heard that Kaige's "The King of Children" is the post-production stage here?" After sitting down, Zhang Yimou took off his military coat and asked without image.

Although Zhang Yimou has become more low-key and calm outside now, he still has no taboos in front of old classmates like Wu Jianye, especially in front of the group of people with the best relationship.

Looking at Zhang Yimou's appearance, Feng Trousers curled his lips in secret. He has come here more times, and Feng Trousers thinks he is more knowledgeable. Although he is dressed similarly to Zhang Yimou now, he still feels that he is more knowledgeable than him. .

Some people's first impressions are so weird. When Feng Trousers met Wu Jianye's other classmates, he seemed very polite, but for some reason, when he saw Zhang Yimou at first glance, he didn't feel so good. strength!

Wu Jianye said: "Yeah, but he's been busy with dating recently, so he probably won't be here today!"

Zhang Yimou said in surprise: "He's in love again, he's fast enough!"

"I'm envious, I envy you to try it too!"

"You can't talk nonsense, if your sister-in-law hears it, it's time to fight with me again!" Zhang Yimou said quickly.

"Look at how brave you are!" Wu Jianye curled his lips and gave Zhang Yimou a disdainful look.

Zhang Yimou smiled sheepishly and said, "Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, I came to see you this time for a serious business!"

Wu Jianye joked: "Want to eat roast chicken?"

Zhang Yimou waved his hand and said generously: "When we eat roast chicken, we will talk about it later." Then he immediately changed into a flattering smile: "But the business is over, so we can talk about eating roast chicken."

After the two joked a few words, Zhang Yimou officially talked about the business of his visit this time.

"When you graduated, you said that if I became a director, you were going to invest!"

After saying this, Zhang Yimou showed a smug smile.

Wu Jianye said to Wu Tianming: "Director Wu, you are courageous enough. If you ask him to film for your West Film Studio, won't you be afraid of ruining the film?"

Wu Tianming also knew that this was Wu Jianye's joke on Zhang Yimou, and he laughed and said, "Xiao Zhang is a good embryo, and he has his own ideas about movies, so we at Xiying Studio still believe in Xiao Zhang very much." Zhang's!"

"Old Wu, there is no one like you to tear down the stage!" Zhang Yimou said dissatisfiedly.

"With Director Wu here, what else do you want me to invest in?" To be honest, Wu Jianye didn't understand why the two of them came to him for alms.

Although Xiying Film Factory is not as strong as it was in the following years, from the bottom number of copies to the positive number one, at least under the leadership of Wu Tianming, it has gradually improved, and according to Zhang Yimou's experience The amount of investment in the film will not be too large, and Xiying Film Studio is fully capable of solving it by itself.

Then it was Zhang Yimou who told the truth that what he was going to shoot was indeed his first movie "Red Sorghum", but there were still some problems.

It turned out that Zhang Yimou only found out after he went to Gaomi that there would be no sorghum planted next year. According to Zhang Yimou and Wu Tianming's idea, since the local farmers did not plant sorghum, they would plant it themselves, but this would require more funds.

To be honest, Xiying Film Studio itself can use this amount of funds. At worst, everyone should tighten their belts, but Zhang Yimou is a new director after all, and some people in the factory will inevitably have criticisms. For Tian Ming, the pressure was really too great.

At this time, Zhang Yimou thought of his old classmate, Wu Jianye came, and everyone knew that Wu Jianye now opened a cultural company in Yanjing and had money in his hands, so when he came to Yanjing to find actors, Zhang Yimou also brought him with him. Following Wu Tianming came to Tangting Culture.

After Wu Jianye finished listening, he asked, "How big is the opening?"

Wu Tianming immediately showed joy after hearing this: "It's best to raise one hundred thousand!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Okay, the [-] Tangting culture is out, when will you need it?"

"The sooner the better!" Wu Tianming was worried about money every day now, and when he heard that Wu Jianye agreed to invest, why would he want to delay!
Wu Jianye first asked Wu Tianming about the investment of the entire film, then called Xia Xiaohong in, gave her instructions, and asked her to prepare some corresponding documents, and Xia Xiaohong came over with the documents not long after.

"Director Wu, take a look. If there is no problem, you can just sign!" At this time, Wu Jianye and Wu Tianming also became Director Wu.

Wu Tianming took the document and read it carefully, showing an embarrassed smile: "Director Wu, isn't this treaty too inappropriate for your dignified culture?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said: "It's nothing, it's nothing to Lao Mouzi, we are old classmates, it's his first time as a director, I definitely want to support him, and Director Wu is a director I respect very much , don’t say anything else!”

Hearing what Wu Jianye said, Zhang Yimou immediately showed a reserved smile.

In fact, Wu Jianye did not suffer much from this contract. Although the ratio of his investment to income is not directly proportional, the people behind the whole movie are from Xiying Studio, and there are also issues such as the factory logo involved. In other words, Tangting Culture did not suffer.

What's more, through this cooperation, we can also establish a good cooperative relationship with Wu Tianming and others.

The domestic entertainment industry is not limited to the Beijing circle, but also the Northwest circle, and Wu Tianming and Zhang Yimou are the backbone of the Northwest circle.

In the end, Wu Tianming still signed his name on the contract.

Zhang Yimou said excitedly: "Old Wu, thank you this time!"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "It's an outsider to say this between you and me." Then Wu Jianye asked, "Have you found an actor?"
