I'm the man behind the big stars

Chapter 8 Signing a Contract
When Luchen got up the next morning, he found that the meals he packed had been swept away, and the packed tableware was thrown in the trash can in the kitchen.

It seems that no matter how sad a person is, he still knows how to eat.

It's just that the 400 yuan was still on the table, and Shi Yin didn't move. Seeing the money, Lu Chen smiled, and after that, he washed up and went to the Dreamland.

Maybe it was because of the previous visit, when Lu Chen walked to the reception desk of Dream Land, the girl at the front desk smiled and said to him: "Mr. Lu, Director Cheng and Director Chen are waiting for you in the office, please follow me. "

"it is good."

After receiving the little girl, Lu Chen came to Cheng Ming's office again. Cheng Ming and Chen Chuan seemed to be chatting about something at this time. After Lu Chen entered, the two of them still had a heated discussion. It was only then that someone came in.

"Mr. Cheng, Mr. Lu is here."

Hearing what the girl at the front desk said, the two turned their heads to look at Lu Chen at the same time.

Chen Chuan got up directly and walked towards Lu Chen, then stretched out his right hand.

"Hi, I'm Chen Chuan."

Lu Chen quickly reached out his left hand and shook hands with him.

"Hello."

Afterwards, Chen Chuan pulled out a chair for Lu Chen, and instructed:
"Please sit down."

Seeing Chen Chuan being so polite, Lu Chen was a little embarrassed. After all, Chen Chuan is considered a celebrity in this world. Although he has become a director now, his fame is still there, and he is older than himself , asking him to pull a chair for himself is a bit inappropriate.

After Lu Chen said "thank you", he sat down immediately.

Chen Chuan asked: "Little brother is so young, he should have just graduated?"

Lu Chen replied perfunctorily, "Yes, yes."

Hearing this question, Lu Chen was a little worried, worried that Dream Land would use the reason that he was a new screenwriter to lower the price.

But Lu Chen soon discovered that his worries were unnecessary.

Chen Chuan praised at this time: "I was able to write such a good script just after graduation. It seems that there will be another great screenwriter in the film and television industry soon."

Lu Chen smiled, but didn't speak.

At this time, Cheng Ming interjected and said: "Mr. Lu, I came to you this time to discuss the price of the script with you again. Director Chen values ​​your script more. He communicated with the senior management of our company. The price of this script can be slightly higher. Mention some more."

Hearing Cheng Ming's words, Lu Chen felt a little relieved. From this point of view, Dreamland has no intention of lowering the price.

Chen Chuan said at this time: "If Dreamland can buy this script, then I will be the director to shoot this drama. If I direct it, Lu Chen, you can rest assured, although many TV dramas I filmed are not good. There is no big hit, but I am definitely a very responsible director."

Chen Chuan has been filming modern comedies for decades. Whether he is an actor or a director, he is a little tired. He really wants to make a different TV series, but he can't find a good script. Lu Chen's script It opened up his horizons, and because of the long-term cooperation between himself and Dreamland, he has a good relationship with the company's upper management, so he personally persuaded Dreamland to buy the show "The Unruly Princess".

After experiencing price setbacks from other companies, the price given by Dreamland is completely acceptable to Lu Chen, and his drama is directed by Chen Chuan, who is relatively well-known in the entertainment industry, which is also of great benefit to him. It can indirectly increase his popularity.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen said directly: "Then episode [-], what do you think, Mr. Cheng?"

Seeing that the price of Lu Chenbao was within an acceptable range, Cheng Ming immediately said, "If it's [-] episodes..."

Having said that, Cheng Ming paused for a moment, and continued after a few seconds: "We can still accept this price."

"Well, since the price has been negotiated, let's sign the contract next."

"okay."

Then Cheng Ming called his secretary and asked his secretary to type out the contract immediately. While waiting for the contract, the three chatted about other things.

"Lu Chen, I think your script is very standard, and the character dialogue is also very smooth. When I was filming, I almost didn't have to change the character dialogue. Are you from Huaying?" Chen Chuan asked.

Lu Chen replied, "No, it's just an ordinary school."

"Then who is your screenwriting teacher?"

Generally, those who have never attended a professional school and want to be a screenwriter need a professional screenwriter to guide them for a period of time. The script written by Lu Chen is perfect, which indirectly shows that his screenwriting teacher is also very high-level.

Lu Chen smiled and said, "I don't have a teacher either."

Hearing this answer, Chen Chuan and Cheng Ming were taken aback for a moment. How could a screenwriter who had neither professional knowledge nor teachers guide him write such a perfect script?
This young man is really talented enough.

Speaking of this, Chen Chuan led the topic to other places.

"Speaking of which, Lu Chen, who do you think is the most suitable heroine in this show? Or, do you think that actor is best able to portray the unruly and willful character of the heroine."

The name of the drama "The Unruly Princess" determines that the heroine of this drama is very important. If the heroine is not chosen well, it is basically equivalent to wasting half of it.

Lu Chen thought carefully about Chen Chuan's question, but after searching for the actresses in this world in his mind, he found that there seemed to be no actress who was the most suitable for this role.

Of course, if you insist on finding a well-known actress to act, it's not impossible.

"I'm not very familiar with those actresses, Director Chen, which actress do you think is more suitable?" Lu Chen returned the question to Chen Chuan again.

Chen Chuan thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid it's really hard to find the heroine of your show. I have a few candidates, but the salaries of those people are a bit high. I'm afraid Mr. Cheng and the others won't invite them."

Cheng Ming said at this time: "How about using a newcomer?"

Dreamland used to specialize in film and television dramas, and rarely operated other businesses. What was worse was that it did not have its own artists, and every time it was paid for actors, they had to be slaughtered. So in the past two years, Dreamland has gradually started to sign new artists. And when filming TV series, they use newcomers more and more.

Chen Chuan thought for a moment, and said to Cheng Ming: "This role is difficult, and I'm afraid it won't work well with newcomers."

"Why don't we let those newcomers try out the drama first, and if they are suitable, they will use them, and if they are not suitable, they will use star actors."

Hearing the conversation between Chen Chuan and Cheng Ming, Lu Chen remembered what they discussed when he went to the office earlier.

Before Lu Chen came, the two of them were already discussing who should play the heroine.

At this time, Secretary Cheng Ming's voice came, bringing the three of them back to reality.

"Mr. Cheng, the contract has been signed."

The female secretary put the contract in front of Cheng Ming while talking, and Cheng Ming handed one of the contracts to Lu Chen.

"Lu Chen, take a look first to see if you have any questions or anything to add."

Lu Chen took the contract and carefully read it twice. In his previous life, he was tricked by his friends because of the contract. In this life, he has become much more cautious.

After reading it, Lu Chen said, "There is nothing to add."

Cheng Ming took out two black signature pens, and said, "If there is no problem, then sign it."

"okay."

After the two parties signed the contract, Cheng Ming and Lu Chen shook hands and said, "Happy cooperation!"

"Happy cooperation!"

"We will call you through the bank account you left on the contract for the fee for the first five episodes. Because it does not include tax, the tax bureau will trouble you to make a trip yourself." Cheng Ming reminded.

Lu Chen held the contract and said with a smile, "Okay, I understand."

After signing the contract, Lu Chen was about to leave the fantasy land. At this moment, he suddenly looked at Chen Chuan and said:
"Director Chen, I suddenly remembered that I have a friend. She may be more suitable to play the heroine of this play. I wonder if I can let her try the play?"

Chen Chuan replied: "Yes, we will notify you during the audition when we are ready, and you can just bring her over."

Having said that, Chen Chuan took out a business card and handed it to Lu Chen.

"By the way, here is my business card. If you have any questions that need to be communicated, you can call me directly."

"Thank you Director Chen, then I'll go first."

After finishing speaking, Lu Chen left the Dreamland.
