You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 612 ① Full-time master ② Living with a girl ③ Choice of hostess

Fan Bingbing has another legitimate reason to go to Cannes and walk the red carpet.

Before departure, she and Wang Quan had a small gathering at a villa in the capital.

"Let me discuss something with you." Fat Bing blinked, looking particularly seductive.

Both of them were out of breath now. Wang Quan and her heads were touching, "You tell me."

Fat Bing: "My company wants to make a movie, and it is a series of large-scale productions. Do you support me?"

Since the establishment of Fan Bingbing's Bingcheng, it has invested in some movies, but they are basically small-cost. The company's money is mainly made from investing in TV series. A good one can make a few dollars, and a bad one can make 18 million. of.

Including Netflix's "Unnatural Death" that has not yet been aired, Bingcheng also participated in the production.

But she has ambitions and wants to bring Bingcheng to the market. She can't do it without a successful film project.

Wang Quan asked: "It's such a serious matter. It seems like a big investment. What are you planning to shoot?"

"You know Qidian's novel, "The Master"."

Wang Quan nodded. "Full-time Master" is a Qidian e-sports novel written in 14. It created an original game called Glory, which is very popular in Qidian.

"Why, is it because you are preparing to film "Ready Player One" that you are interested in this type of film?" Wang Quan asked her, "Ready Player One may not be able to make money yet. Do you want to wait a little longer?"

Fan Bingbing finally took away the opportunity to star as the heroine of "Ready Player One" from Yang Mi.

Although Spielberg is very attractive, unfortunately, if he shoots "Ready Player One", it will be difficult to coordinate with "Easy Go". Besides, when you can shoot the work of the world's number one director, who would care about the world's second best?

However, Yang Mi took advantage of this opportunity to gain some benefits from Fan Bingbing, the most important of which was that she, Yang Mi, took over Bingcheng and became the third largest shareholder after Wang Quan and Fan Bingbing, with more shares than Zhao Liying.

Of course, she also really invested money, so Bingcheng is now very rich in funds and always wants to do something big.

Fan Bingbing asked: "Aren't you optimistic? Now the social image of e-sports is changing and starting to become more positive. The reason you mentioned is one of them. And I found Fan Chengcheng secretly reading online novels on his mobile phone under the covers. , I thought it was "The Age of Literature", but it turned out to be "The Master", and it was the original version. It seems that these young boys who like games are obsessed with this novel."

Wang Quan asked her: "You want to make this novel, right?"

Fan Bingbing waved his hand: "I am a good-looking brother, but his looks are not comparable to mine. He will definitely not be able to play the leading role now. If he really wants to get into this industry, he can start with supporting roles. I am really investigating. However, this novel is so popular that even the male protagonist’s birthday is trending on Weibo. Do you think it’s an exaggeration?”

Wang Quan: "The popularity of "The Master" is indeed not bad, especially the fan loyalty is extremely high, and it is known as the heart of China Literature. Although it has been two years since the completion of the book, it is still mentioned in the market. At this time, a comic has been developed. Animation is being prepared.

You know, if you spend more than 1000 yuan on a book in Qidian, you can get the title of alliance leader. It is a great achievement to have one hundred alliances in other novels, but The Full-time Master is the only three novels with one thousand alliances. "

"Ah, are there two more books? What kind of books are they?" Fan Bingbing was a little curious. If it was good, she would also like to buy it.

Wang Quan actually learned about it from the annual report of Qidian: ""Super Retail Investors" and "Supreme Retail Investors", no need to look them up, they are no longer available. These two novels are about stocks. Readers can join the group to listen to the class by tipping the leader. This practice is illegal and has been eliminated.”

"So "The Master" is the only Qianmeng novel. It's amazing!"

"But e-sports is still too niche. Even if the novel is very popular and the fans are very loyal, including pirated readers, they are only in the millions and can support tens of millions in box office. Most of them are like me. If you are of a certain age, you might not even watch a movie if you hear it is about gaming. This is one of the few subjects that I dare not touch.”

Fan Bingbing was disappointed, "Ah, are you so unfavorable?"

Wang Quan: "Most of the subjects were not favored before they became popular. You don't have to pay too much attention to my opinion. If you really want to do it, then go for it. Even if you lose, it's not a big deal. I'll lose all my money." It’s not like you can’t afford it.”

Although the relationship between the two is purely male and female, and the emotional foundation can be said to be very weak, Fan Bingbing was still very moved by Wang Quan's words.

It just so happened that Wang Quan's CD time was up, so Fan Bingbing took the initiative to sit on it.

in the future.

Wang Quan made some suggestions to Fan Bingbing.

"If you really want to do this project, you can wait until the animated version of China Literature comes out. Let the animated version expand the influence of the IP first, and then work together with China Literature to film it. This novel is China Literature's heart and soul. , if you don’t let him participate in investment and quality control, it’s impossible to sell to Bingcheng.”

"I know, and you also said that the risk is very high, so I will not only bring Yuewen over, but also bring over Mishi, Hesong, Wangdao, and Qiankun to share the risk. If I lose, I will at most Compensate for 100 million, and if you make a profit, let’s share the money together.”

The budget for Fan Bingbing's first film was 200 million, and she contributed half of it. Most of it was for special effects in the game world. She didn't dare to compare with "Ready Player One", but at least it had to be the number one among Chinese-language films.

Wang Quan also gave some advice: "The two-dimensional audience is difficult to serve, so actors must take into account both appearance and acting skills. If secondary roles cannot be balanced, then appearance should be considered first. They can't stand ugly people and scumbag acting skills."

"Also, the script can add appropriate rhythm and comedy elements. These are the keys to a blockbuster hit. Otherwise, it will be difficult to sell high box office based on the original theme alone. The key is the director. It is best if you really like this candidate. E-sports, I’m afraid it will be hard to find.”

"I'm also worried about choosing a director. If it doesn't work out, I'll go to Hollywood to look for it. It's a bit expensive, but making commercial films does have a lot of potential."

Wang Quan shook his head: "It is better to find them domestically if possible. The biggest problem with foreign directors is that communication costs are too high. Language is a big problem. I will help you keep an eye on it later. Anyway, I won't be filming now."

"Well, I'll go to the "Ready Player One" crew first to learn from it."

Then Fan Bingbing said another little thing, "Among the candidates for Xiaoyaoyou, I have taken a fancy to a girl and want to sign her."

"Who?"

"I'm just a fellow from Shandong Province."

Oh, Wang Churan.

Although she claims to be from Shanghai, she actually grew up in Zibo. She was exposed when the beautiful girls had a barbecue in the courtyard of the villa.

Wang Quan: "You can do whatever you want, she is not the heroine I want."

Fan Bingbing nodded and started for the third time tonight.

~
Because Fan Bingbing was going to Cannes, she asked the head of the company's brokerage department to discuss it with him then.

Since we want to make Bingcheng bigger and stronger, we have to start accumulating the power of the new generation of actors from now on.

On May 5th, the Cannes Film Festival officially opened.

Fan Bingbing was undoubtedly the most attractive person at the opening ceremony. Even European and American stars rarely could compete with her to steal the limelight, except of course Little K.

The new Oscar-winning actress' new film "Personal Shopper" is also shortlisted for the main competition.

When Little K takes action, Fan Bingbing has to avoid the limelight for a while.

Wherever Fan Bingbing appears, fellow Asian actresses Wen Yongshan and Kim Min-hee (the heroine of "Miss") are overshadowed.

Huang Xiaoming and Wen Yongshan also attended the opening ceremony red carpet with Chen Zhengdao's "The Tuner".

Moreover, Brother Xiao Ming also brought his newlywed wife, Da Bao'er.

Brother Xiao Ming is also a little regretful. It is a pity that this film was not shortlisted for the main competition. If it was shortlisted, with his friendship with Fan Bingbing, he might be able to win the Cannes Best Actor for himself. He feels that his performance this time is better than "Partners" is okay.

And I heard that Best Actor and Best Actress are relatively light awards in the main competition, but for actors like them, they are a big deal.

If you win the Best Actor at Cannes, you will be able to join Ge You, Tony Leung Chaowei and Tony Leung Jiahui. Are there any of the four acting kings in the Chinese film industry?
In the evening, after attending a night of movie activities, Xiao Ming took his beloved wife back to the hotel, and then the big baby began to check the domestic news.

Although there are many press releases about her, more than her good sister Wen Yongshan, the heroine of "The Tuner", but far less than Fan Bingbing.

In domestic news about Cannes, Fan Bingbing has become the absolute protagonist.

Last year, she was just a vase next to Wang Quan. It was "Parasite" that made her famous around the world.

But Fan Bingbing, who was shaking a red wine glass in front of the hotel's floor-to-ceiling window, thought to himself: Where is this? I have big things to do later.

After finishing the glass of wine, Fan Bingbing went back to bed. Wen Yongshan was lying on the bed. The two of them slept in the same room. It had nothing to do with saving money, but they were just used to comfort each other.

Two days later, the world-famous director Spielberg came to Cannes with his new work "Giant", which was shortlisted for the screening section.

Fan Bingbing attended the film's premiere that day, and in front of the global media, Lao Si personally admitted that his next big-budget science fiction film would use Fan Bingbing as the heroine.

"After watching "Parasite", I knew that Bingbing is the most representative Chinese actor today. She is beautiful, confident, and powerful. She can handle all roles with ease. I believe this will be a very pleasant collaboration."

The news spread throughout the world through media in various countries.

In the Western world, the news of Spielberg's new film has offset the mediocre reputation of "Giant" to a certain extent, and it is science fiction. This time it is science fiction!

At home, the focus is entirely on Fan Bingbing, who booked the heroine in advance. Three days after the opening of Cannes, the first big hit was finally reached.

Fan Bingbing has become the most popular judge in Cannes.

Salted Fish of Salted Fish’s Dream: Pang Bing really attended, and it will be an international style from now on!

Bored people will die: too strong. Did you notice what Lao Si said? After watching "Parasite", this movie has too strong a bonus for Bingbing!

Young Runtu: "Parasite" is a global hit and has the highest rating in the mailbox in the 21st century. Of course it can be played. I heard that Liang Jiahui also received an unsolicited invitation from Hollywood.

The last account was stolen: I’m really happy to see our country’s outstanding actors blooming abroad!
A three-liang meal: It is really not easy for a Chinese to play the heroine in Lao Si's movie. Maybe she will be nominated for an Oscar for Best Actress. Pang Bing will make a lot of money this time!
White Night: Hey, didn’t International Chapter also play Spielberg’s heroine?
Zhenliu: What the hell? You mean "Memoirs of a Geisha"? That was produced by Lao Si, not the director!

Shangguan Ziling: Zhang Ziyi, even she can touch Pang Bing, how can she compare with Pang Bing? She is better than Pang Bing in having foreign boyfriends.

Price_chang：Beach.jpg~
"Damn!" After seeing the news and comments from netizens, not to mention Zhang Ziyi who was breastfeeding her baby, even Wang Banbi who was preparing to release a new album was depressed.

Can’t we not mention the past?

Zhang Ziyi feels really uncomfortable now. It turns out that Fan Bingbing was cast for her, but now she can actually star in Spielberg's movie!

And now I can only play a lowly woman who plays a prison game with the Neon Man in a movie like "The Death of Romance"!
However, she also asked about her connections in Hollywood. This big-investment science fiction movie seems to be about the dragon raising its head, so in the final analysis, it is Wang Quan’s connections. Fan Bingbing really has a good support!
Then look at my husband who is a rock and roll veteran. He is really useless. He can’t even make the headlines!
Zhang Ziyi hates it so much. If she could have been more enthusiastic when Wang Quan attended the Oscars for the first time and took the initiative to open a room with him, maybe she would be the one starring in "Parasite" and Spielberg's new film now!
Not to mention Zhang Ziyi, even Li Bingbing, who now has a good relationship with Pang Bing and carried a gun together, was very shocked when he learned the news, and naturally pantothenic acid was inevitable.

Although "The Meg" is also the heroine herself, and the investment scale may not be weaker than Spielberg's new film, after all, it is Spielberg who was once the world's leading director!
Sure enough, he still loves her more~
Alas, it is wonderful to be young!

She felt that she just suffered the disadvantage of being older. It was a pity that I was not born before Jun was born. Jun was born and I was already old. The 12-year age difference was too difficult to make up for.

It is indeed good to be young. Looking at the 11 beautiful girls in front of me, even if I don't do anything to them, I still find it pleasing to the eye and feel comfortable.

Today is the last day for the sisters in this variety show. It is the day of separation and the day of results.

There were no exams or games today, just letting them go shopping and eat what they wanted, and use the program team's money to buy some Beijing specialties to take back to their hometown.

When they returned to the villa, Wang Quan was already waiting for them, and there were 11 envelopes in his hands.

"Based on everyone's performance this month, we have determined the candidate for the starring role. However, the result must be kept secret from others. In other words, only she knows that she has been selected, and she cannot tell you yet. I hope everyone can understand. This is not intentional concealment or deception.”

At this time, Yang Chaoyue raised her hand and asked: "Is it a text message notification? I didn't receive it?"

Ding Xiaoying looked at Zhang Ruonan: "Nan Nan, did your phone ring just now?"

Zhang Ruonan: "Yes, but it was because China Mobile reminded me that I ran out of data. I remember Zuer's cell phone also rang."

Song Zuer: "It was my classmate from Jinmen asking me if I would go back to Jinmen. It was not a notification message from Director Quan."

"Stop guessing, look here."

He shook the big envelope in his hand and said, "Find a place where no one is around to open it later and read it. Don't let anyone see what is written inside. Also, I won't be leaving tonight."

"what!"

"Sleep here?"

Everyone was shocked, and their hearts were spinning a thousand times, but when they thought about the cameras everywhere in the villa, their moods suddenly became complicated again.

Yang Chaoyue: "Then director, where do you sleep?"

Wang Quan: "Where do you think I should sleep?"

Yang Chaoyue: "How about trying the nanny's room."

Song Zuer immediately said thoughtfully: "I think we should give the master bedroom to the director. After all, it is your room."

Wang Churan immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, yes."

Anyway, I don’t live in the master bedroom myself. Wang Quan smiled: "I won't sleep anywhere, I just wander around this house. Okay, whoever's name is called, come and get your envelope, Chen Duling..."

Chen Duling was the first to get the envelope, and then ran to the kitchen to open it. However, she was not told whether she was selected or not. She was told to go to the garage to find him at one o'clock in the morning.

Two thirty in the morning?
garage?

This time and place made Chen Duling a little scared and a little eager to try.

It’s the same for everyone else, what’s in the envelope isn’t a result, it’s a time and place, but it’s different for everyone.

It seemed that Wang Quan planned to have a one-on-one chat with them, and even the director team had withdrawn.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Wang Churan, who lived in the nanny's room on the first floor, was the first to walk out of the room and came to the living room.

There was only a small lamp in the living room, which was a little dim, but you could still see the outline of Wang Quan sitting on the sofa.

He had his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping, which made Wang Churan afraid to disturb him, so he just stood in front of Wang Quan so obediently.

After about two minutes, Wang Quan opened his eyes and said, "You didn't even say a word when you came."

Wang Churan showed an awkward smile.

"Sit down, you are taking the college entrance examination next year, right?"

Wang Churan nodded: "I want to learn acting."

"Very good, you are very beautiful. If you have good acting skills, your future will be bright. But unfortunately, my heroine is not you."

Hearing this, Wang Churan's heart skipped a beat. In fact, she knew that she had a low chance of being selected because her performance teacher's evaluation of her acting talent was not high.

But it's still a bit uncomfortable to be so direct. This may be the second most life-changing opportunity after birth.

But aren’t there still castings for two dramas? Both directors visited here two days ago.

She looked at Wang Quan expectantly.

Wang Quan indeed had something to say, "But you have been spotted by the boss of Bingcheng Entertainment. She thinks you are a talent. If you are willing, go to this place tomorrow and meet a person who is the vice president of Bingcheng. You can talk to She talks about the conditions.”

Wang Churan reacted for a while, Bing Cheng? Bingcheng boss? Fan Bingbing!

"Okay, thank you, director!" Wang Churan stood up and bowed solemnly to Wang Quan to thank him.

Afterwards, Wang Quan went to the wine cellar on the underground floor, selected a bottle of wine, and waited for Zhang Jingyi at 10:.

She was bright and majestic, but Wang Quan didn't think she was similar to Zhou Ming at all, and he was too shameless.

"Xiao Zhang, sit down, but since you are underage, you will not be allowed to drink."

Zhang Jingyi had explored this place before and was relieved to see that the camera was still there.

"Hello director, do you have anything important to say to me?" she asked expectantly.

"Yes, unfortunately, my heroine is not you."

"No, it doesn't matter. Being able to live here for a month has taught me a lot of knowledge. I'm very satisfied."

"Don't say those embarrassing things. It's okay to complain a few times if you're sad."

Of course she was sad, but she couldn't complain. Seeing Wang Quan put down the wine glass, she took it directly and drank it in one gulp.

Although she looks like a good girl, she is still a bit wild after all, she is a Hunan girl.

After drinking, she felt happy and turned to leave.

Wang Quan: "I haven't finished speaking yet. My friends Chen Kun and Zhou Xun have jointly opened a company and are recruiting artists. If you are interested in the entertainment industry, I can introduce you to them. They are both upright people. No. There will be no mess, here is the contact information, think carefully and make your own decision.”

"Thank you, thank you, director." Zhang Jingyi did not expect an unexpected gain.

Afterwards, Wang Quan mixed a bottle of red wine and went upstairs. Zhang Jingyi returned to the room. Yang Yutong was still dozing, and she could still smell the wine with her nose raised.

At 11 o'clock, she slipped downstairs and saw Wang Quan frying steak in the kitchen.

The little girl looked so cute that I felt pity for her. She was also not selected, but Wang Quan gave her a way out, "Director Cao Baoping thinks you are pretty good, so he gave you a chance to audition. Keep this note."

Although I didn’t get the first prize, it was nice to have a consolation prize.

Yang Yutong left happily, but Wang Quan, who had drunk some wine, could only think of her biting the corner of the table.

Wang Quan was eating steak in the restaurant when Zhang Xueying came. Wang Quan gave her the same note as Yang Yutong, and she also got the opportunity to audition for "Death Row".

Because she has appeared in "Dog 13" produced by Cao Baoping, her chances of passing the audition are much higher.

After dinner, Wang Quan took a stroll in the back garden. It was already 12 o'clock.

After a while, Sun Yining appeared next to him.

After a month, her scores in various assessments were not very good. In addition to her top-notch face, her learning ability and social skills were relatively poor, her emotional intelligence was not high, and she seemed to have a bit of a lesbian tendency, and she was a T .

So Wang Quan regretfully told her, "The company bought you a return ticket."

During this month, Sun Yining was like a dream, learning acting, learning etiquette, and getting in touch with many big stars and directors who could only be seen on TV.

She thought she was about to say goodbye to the poor life in the past, but she didn't expect that she would return to her original shape after a month.

She really wanted to leave a strong image in front of the king, but the tears still fell down.

The moon is very bright today, but it is not bright at all. It is just so that the king can see his weak side.

Finally, Wang Quan asked: "If you return to your hometown, what will you do next?"

Sun Yining sobbed: "Look for a class, but my education is too low, so I may not be able to find a good job."

Wang Quan handed over a tissue: "Let me show you a clear path."

The beauty raised her eyes: "Director, tell me."

"Manage your Douyin account well and shoot some beautiful videos. You now have hundreds of thousands of fans. This is a good foundation. You can make money after you have fans on Douyin in a few years." It's not possible now. Play now. TikTok is pure love.

"But finding a professional to shoot a video also requires start-up capital. I don't know if 100,000 is enough." Sun Yining struggled.

Wang Quan waved his hand: "That's all, you can contact Assistant Guo later. I will lend you one million, which will be regarded as your start-up capital. You will pay me back when your situation improves and you can make money."

Sun Yining opened her mouth wide. She hesitated for a while, and then she got a 100 million loan. Isn't this so magical!
"The interest?"

"No interest is required, but you have to remember to be a good person, don't take detours, remember what others have done to you, and be kind to others."

Sun Yining was so moved that his tear ducts became more developed. Many people on the Internet criticized Director Quan's private life. They even exaggeratedly said that he slept with half of the entertainment industry and was half the king.

When he lent himself money, he didn't ask himself to sacrifice anything, but asked himself to convey love and kindness. This spirit is so noble!

"Thank you, director!"

Wang Quan: "Okay, go to bed."

Because she chatted a lot with Sun Yining, she happened to meet Hu Lianxin when she went back. The little girl's eyes were wet and she was not sleepy at all.

Hu Lianxin is only 16 years old this year, and she still has a few years to go before entering the entertainment industry. Wang Quan introduced her to Power World, which is looking for trainees all over the world, and the younger the trainees, the better.

Hu Lianxin said she would discuss it with her parents after returning home.

"Being a trainee will not affect the college entrance examination. In fact, I want to take the Nortel Chinese Drama Exam."

Wang Quan: "It doesn't matter. Practicing stage skills will actually help with the art exam, but it will squeeze the time for cultural classes."

Hu Lianxin: "That doesn't matter. My grades in cultural classes are okay."

The little girl jumped away like two little rabbits.

It's normal to not wear a bra at night.

I just had a midnight snack and took a walk, so I should take a shower.

So Wang Quan went to the indoor swimming pool on the second basement floor of the villa, changed into swimming trunks and got into the water.

Not long after Hu Lianxin returned to the room, her roommate Ding Xiaoying left.

Seeing Wang Quan swimming in the water, she said regretfully: "If I had known, I would have brought a swimsuit here. I have always wanted to try this indoor constant-temperature swimming pool."

Wang Quan asked: "Why haven't you tried it before?"

Ding Xiaoying looked around: "There are cameras here."

"You can try it now. The camera is not turned on right now. There are swimsuits suitable for your figure in the changing room."

Ding Xiaoying hesitated and went to change clothes. She shyly got into the water and paid attention to the way Wang Quan looked at her.

But it's a pity that director Wang Quan only cares about himself and doesn't have that kind of man's gaze.

But when the two of them got close, he told himself and comforted: "You were not selected, but you will not lack opportunities in the future for a person with a professional background."

"Well, director... I will continue to... work hard... Gudu Gudu~" Ding Xiaoying was swimming, with her head underwater for a while and then rising to the surface.

Wang Quan added: "Also, the artist management department of Power World has shown interest in you, but there are too many artists in Power World, especially female artists. It is not easy to get ahead in Power World, but the advantage is that it is a big company It’s more formal. Even if you don’t get any good roles, you won’t make unnecessary sacrifices, you know.”

Ding Xiaoying: "Well, I will consider it, thank you..."

"Ah, you are swimming. Did I come at the wrong time?"

At 1:30 in the morning, Yang Chaoyue was still making jokes, so he was obviously not sleepy.

Wang Quan: "You can change your swimsuit and swim together. By the way, you are not my heroine. I am almost the same."

Then Wang Quan lay down on the lounge chair next to the swimming pool and watched the two beautiful girls playing in the water for a while. He only regretted that he didn't bring a water gun. Then he went to the video room next to it.

At two o'clock in the morning, Zhang Ruonan came to Heigulongdong's video room, where the first part of "Infernal Affairs" was playing.

The two of them were like undercover contacts. In the darkness, Wang Quan handed Zhang Ruonan a note.

"Director Sun Rui admires you very much and sincerely invites you to play the heroine of "In the Past". Congratulations."

"Ah, no, no audition required?"

"No, that's what he said. Wherever you go, your youth will be invincible and the years will be peaceful. What I want is your image and temperament. He is very satisfied after seeing it, so there is no need to audition."

Zhang Ruonan didn't know what to say to express his gratitude, and Wang Quan added: "The other thing is that you can choose a brokerage company yourself. Power World, Hesong, Bingcheng, Shiba Culture, whatever you like, they all like you anyway."

"Thank you, director. There are no cameras here, right?"

Wang Quan: "Yes, but there's already a strike. What's wrong?"

After Zhang Ruonan heard this, she immediately tilted her head and kissed Wang Quan on the face, then ran away quickly, she attacked him secretly!
The kiss was a kiss of gratitude.

Wang Quan smiled, got up and went to the garage. At half past two, his heroine Chen Duling finally arrived...

……

(I highly recommend a new book "I'm Not a Literary Man". I don't know the author, but I was so shocked after reading it that I stayed up all night to read it. It's a masterpiece!)
