My wife always wants me, a big star, to eat soft rice

Chapter 212 Don't Know What to Shoot

Several directors were not optimistic about Lu Ming's plan. Although some of them hadn't made any serious film and television dramas, they were still part of the film and television industry and knew the production cycle of film and television dramas very well.

A few of them discussed in the meeting room for a while before leaving the meeting room. Although they were not optimistic and thought that the dramas made in a hurry were all bad dramas, this was the chairman's plan after all. They were just wage earners. It doesn't matter, even if it's a bad drama, it's because of Lu Ming's decision-making.

After leaving the conference room, two directors came upstairs to smoke.

Zhang Ming lit a cigarette, then smiled and said to Guo Lingqiang beside him, "Brother Qiang, what do you think?"

After Guo Lingqiang took a puff of cigarette, he blew a smoke ring into the sky, and then said: "I won't fool around with him anymore, eight dramas in half a year, and I still want to make a quality film and television drama, this is a dream come true It's pretty good."

Zhang Ming asked with a smile: "Don't tell me you want to run away?"

"You were known by various film and television companies because of the variety show Dream Maker."

The variety show Dream Maker has attracted the attention of many film and television companies, so after the show was broadcast, many film and television companies wanted to poach Tianmeng Media, and Guo Lingqiang was one of the targets.

If he wants to go to another film and television company, it is very easy at present. As long as he applies for a job in another film and television company, there is a high probability that he will get a trial opportunity.

After hearing Zhang Ming's words, Guo Lingqiang said disapprovingly: "I was selected because of my personal ability. It has nothing to do with whether I participated in this program. Even if I did not participate in this program, sooner or later I would be selected by everyone." The film and television companies know that if I don't have the ability, I won't be picked by them."

Having said that, Guo Lingqiang turned his head to look at Zhang Ming and said with a smile, "Are you right?"

Zhang Ming said, "Well, what you said makes sense."

"Then which company are you going to work for?"

Guo Lingqiang took another puff of cigarette, and then said: "Well, go to Star Media, they have already sent me an invitation letter, I will go and have a look in the afternoon."

Zhang Ming said thoughtfully: "Star Media, with Haile Group as its back, it's a good place to go."

Guo Lingqiang then said to Zhang Ming: "You should hurry up and find a place. While you are still famous, you will have no future in Tianmeng Media."

"Director Lu is an actor himself. He often shoots movies outside. He has no time to manage the company at all. In terms of running the company, he is probably just doing things in a whimsical way."

Zhang Ming smiled, and said, "That's true."

That's what Zhang Ming said, but in fact he didn't intend to leave. After all, he was selected by Xu Mulin, and he found that Xu Mulin seemed to have a good relationship with Tianmeng Media. He only saw Xu Mulin come to Tianmeng yesterday. Dream Media.

If Tianmeng Media didn't have any potential, Xu Mulin would not be so optimistic about this company. He came to participate in the selection of Dream Makers at the beginning, and his purpose was to enter Tianmeng Media. If he changed jobs at this time, wouldn't he violate He has fulfilled his original intention, so he will not leave for the time being.

As for whether Guo Lingqiang leaves or not, that is none of his business. Whether Guo Lingqiang leaves or not is Guo Lingqiang's own business. If Guo Lingqiang wants to leave, he will not persuade him.

In the afternoon, around two o'clock.

Star Media, at the entrance of the company.

Guo Lingqiang stood at the entrance of Xinghui Media and looked at the entire company, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly. Compared with Tianmeng Media, Xinghui Media seemed to be more upscale. The company address of Xinghui Media was in the city center, and the company looked It is more formal, which is not comparable to Tianmeng Media.

Then, Guo Lingqiang stepped in.

After entering the company, he explained his purpose to the front desk, and the staff at the front desk immediately took him to the reception room. It didn't take long for the company's second-in-command, Tang Feng, to appear in front of him.

After seeing Guo Lingqiang, Tang Feng smiled and introduced himself, "My name is Tang Feng, and I'm the general manager of Star Media."

After seeing Tang Feng, Guo Lingqiang hurriedly said, "Hi, I'm Guo Lingqiang. I came here after reading the invitation letter you sent me."

Guo Lingqiang couldn't help thinking that he was really lucky. He didn't expect to meet the second-in-command of Star Media on the first day.

Tang Feng said: "Director Guo, please sit down, let's discuss the signing of the contract next."

Afterwards, the two discussed the signing of the contract.

At present, Guo Lingqiang has already signed a contract with Tianmeng Media. If he wants to sign a contract with Star Media, he must first terminate the contract with Tianmeng Media. Termination is a very troublesome thing, because there may be liquidated damages.

Fortunately, Tang Feng said that if he wanted to pay liquidated damages, Star Media would help him pay the money.

Under normal circumstances, poaching is like this. When a company poachs a director or actor from another company, it needs to pay liquidated damages for this person.

After discussing the signing with Tang Feng, Guo Lingqiang went back satisfied. Now he only needs to terminate the contract with Tianmeng Media, and he can come to Star Media.

Star Media is backed by Haile Group. He will definitely be able to show his talents here in the future and get a lot of resources. Sooner or later, he will become a top domestic director.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Tang Feng came to Shen Yunfeng's office at this time, and told him about Guo Lingqiang. After hearing that Guo Lingqiang was willing to come to Star Media, Shen Yunfeng showed a long-lost smile.

He has no way to cause big troubles for Tianmeng Media and Lu Ming now, but he can still make some small troubles for him, such as poaching his company's employees.

Compared with Tianmeng Media, a company suppressed by two major groups, Shen Yunfeng believed that Star Media, a film and television company backed by Haile Group, would be more attractive.

At this time, Shen Yunfeng said to Tang Feng: "I remember that Tianmeng Media recruited six new directors through variety shows."

Tang Feng understood Shen Yunfeng's meaning in an instant, but he said at this time: "Mr. Shen, new directors are not of much use to our company. If we recruit too many, there will be no resources for them."

Shen Yunfeng said: "It doesn't necessarily mean that Xinghui Media accepts them, I can let other film and television companies under the Haile Group recruit them."

After hearing Shen Yunfeng's words, Tang Feng felt relieved. As long as he didn't come to Xinghui Media, everything would be easy to talk about. New directors are not well-known and have no works. They need resources to train them. It is a matter of training a qualified director. It's a very laborious thing, and few companies are willing to do it.

the next day.

Early in the morning, not long after Lu Ming arrived at the company, Guo Lingqiang came to his office.

After meeting Guo Lingqiang, Lu Ming asked suspiciously, "Director Guo, is there anything wrong?"

Guo Lingqiang took out a folded application for resignation, and said, "Director Lu, this is my application for termination of contract."

Hearing this, Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized it, because he had expected this kind of thing a long time ago.

Someone must have proposed better conditions to poach Guo Lingqiang.

Lu Ming then said: "Director Guo, you should know that you are not an ordinary employee, you are a contracted director, if you propose to terminate the contract, you need to pay liquidated damages."

In this world, ordinary employees are treated differently from directors and actors, so their resignation is not easy.

When ordinary employees resign, the company may have to pay the employees a sum of money, but if special employees, such as actors and directors, resign, they will instead pay the company liquidated damages.

If Guo Lingqiang resigns now, he will definitely need to pay Tianmeng Media a sum of money.

After listening to Lu Ming's words, Guo Lingqiang said indifferently: "Well, I know, Star Media will pay me the money then."

Lu Ming showed a slight smile, and then he said: "So it's Xinghui Media, okay, I understand, after you pay the liquidated damages, you can leave, our company will not forcefully retain employees."

Lu Ming had already guessed that this guy Shen Yunfeng didn't give up, and would continue to make trouble for him. As expected, this guy came to trouble him again so soon.

But it's just poaching people, which is nothing, and the poaching is still a newcomer, and Guo Lingqiang has not made any contribution to the company yet.

Tianmeng Media didn't give Guo Lingqiang any resources, it just increased Guo Lingqiang's reputation through variety shows. This variety show alone can make Star Media pay a liquidated damages, which is not a loss.

After hearing Lu Ming's words, Guo Lingqiang said, "Thank you Director Lu, if there is nothing else, I'll go first."

Lu Ming said, "Well, good."

After Lu Ming finished speaking, Guo Lingqiang left Lu Ming's office.

Seeing his leaving back, Lu Ming smiled, this Shen Yunfeng is really a fly, buzzing in front of him all the time, and it's not easy to deal with, it's really disgusting, you have to find a way to get rid of him .

However, if it is within the scope of the law, it is almost impossible to get rid of this guy.

But if it is to use means other than the law, it is easy to get burned.

In Shen Yunfeng's eyes, he was probably the same, he couldn't use methods other than the law to deal with him, so he used some small methods to disgust him.

What a hassle!

Thinking of this, Lu Ming rubbed his temples. After a while, Lu Ming suddenly thought of a big one. He could send people to infiltrate Xinghui Company to find out the careless things Shen Yunfeng did, and then make this guy some trouble.

A dude like Shen Yunfeng will inevitably have all kinds of problems. It is impossible for him to be completely law-abiding. As long as he can be caught, it will be easy to deal with him at that time.

But having said that, it might not be an easy task to send people into Xinghui Company and then get close to Shen Yunfeng.

This guy is very lustful, unless he sends a beautiful woman to use a beauty trap, but obviously he will not use this trick.

Tianmeng Media has several young and beautiful artists, but these artists are the cash cows of Tianmeng Media, and Lu Ming is not stupid enough to give these female artists to that guy Shen Yunfeng.

It seems that the beauty trick is not easy to use, at least find someone who will not betray and who is not Tianmeng Media.

The card Li Xiangya shouldn't have been used back then, if Li Xiangya had been kept until now, maybe he could use her to find some of Shen Yunfeng's weaknesses.

But it's useless to think so much now, Li Xiangya has betrayed Shen Yunfeng, even if she returns to Shen Yunfeng's side again, Shen Yunfeng can't trust him anymore, and Li Xiangya already has money, she is unlikely to do this kind of thing again Things, she is a more realistic woman.

When it comes to "reality", Lu Ming suddenly thought of another way. Since he can't send someone from his company to find Shen Yunfeng's weakness, it's better to directly use the female artists of Shen Yunfeng's company. is very realistic.

If Shen Yunfeng didn't give them enough resources, and didn't give them enough money, they would rebel sooner or later, so he could use some of these female artists.

Of course, this also requires an opportunity.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming pinched his forehead, and didn't continue to think about it.

He still has more important things to do next. He has to shoot eight film and television dramas in half a year. There is still pressure. He has to prepare quickly, especially those two movies.

at dusk.

Lu Ming's house.

At this time Lu Ming hadn't come back yet, Shi Huan was sitting in the hall, holding a phone call with someone.

After a while, Shi Huan suddenly heard some bad topic, and said excitedly: "Dad, I am not the spy you sent to Tianmeng Media, and it is impossible to tell you about Tianmeng Media, you are dead Take this heart!"

Seeing his daughter so excited, Shi Tian hurriedly said: "Huanhuan, I'm just talking casually, don't take it to heart, and I didn't expect you to tell me anything."

"Okay, that's all for today. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up."

After the voice fell, Shi Tian hung up the phone directly.

After hearing the beeping sound, Shi Huan frowned, and she said why her father suddenly agreed to go to Lu Ming's company. It turned out that he had already been thinking about Tianmeng Media, and he actually wanted to She leaked information about Tianmeng Media to him.

She is now Lu Ming's wife anyway, how could she do such a thing.

Just when Shi Huan was very angry about his father's intentions, Lu Ming entered the hall, and seeing Shi Huan seemed unhappy, Lu Ming asked suspiciously: "Huanhuan, what's wrong with you, what's wrong with you? happy thing?"

After hearing Lu Ming's voice, Shi Huan came back to her senses, and she immediately smiled and said, "It's okay, I was thinking about something just now."

Lu Ming came to sit beside Shi Huan, and then casually put his hands on her lap.

"What's the matter? Thinking so seriously?"

Shi Huan replied with a smile: "I was thinking about shooting eight film and television dramas in half a year, would it be too busy?"

Lu Ming smiled, and then said: "You don't have to worry about this, our company is now fully capable of filming six dramas at the same time, and there is no problem with eight dramas in half a year."

Shi Huan said, "Since you've already said that, then I won't think too much about it."

Speaking of this, Shi Huan asked: "By the way, have you decided on the movie script you want to use to test the waters?"

Hearing this question, Lu Ming sighed, and then said: "I haven't decided yet, and I don't know what to shoot to be popular. If I get a bad start, I will be in trouble. After leaving a bad impression, It will not be so easy to rely on online movie theaters to sell tickets.”

Shi Huan said: "Why don't you make a sci-fi film? Nowadays, the market for sci-fi films is very broad, and there are very few sci-fi films in China. If it's a sci-fi film, even if it's poorly shot, the audience won't say anything."

This……

Lu Ming thought, maybe it’s not that simple. He remembered that the country where he lived in his previous life also had very few sci-fi movies, but someone made a sci-fi movie about a fortress, and was scolded by the audience in the end.

The audience is not so easy to serve, after all, they are paid.
