Chapter 91 Chen An's Mr. Tree Ge Da Ge, who had already finished filming, was relaxing at home. Feng Xiaogang, who had found him after finishing his comedy trilogy, turned around to shoot an art film but did not take him with is obvious that I come from art films, and I have collaborated with him on three films, two of which have been released. Now the audience wants to laugh when they see my appearance. Although he says that low-budget movies can't afford him, it just means that he feels he is not good enough. And Xiao Chen has long said that he wants to find me to star in a movie, but I have been waiting for the script for several years but have never seen it. Uncle Ge, who was sitting in his yard and relaxing, touched his bald head and wondered: Have I really been stereotyped as a comedian? As he was thinking, he looked up and saw that Chen An and his father, whom he had mentioned, had returned. It was also a surprise for Chen An. On his way here, he met the inventor of Ge Da Ye, Ge Da Ye's father, who was taking a walk. He was the humorous old man who said that Ge Da Ye was his representative work in this life. "Xiao Chen, you're here. My son is at home. You can talk to him if you have anything to say." After old man Ge Cunzhuang brought Chen An in, he pointed at Ge You who was lying on the chair. After saying this, he turned to his son who was lying on the chair and said, "Hurry up and get up. Director Chen rarely comes here. Say hello." As he said this, he fanned the other person's head with his hand, almost choking him. "I got it, Dad. You go and have a rest. I'll take care of things." Uncle Ge, who was lying on the chair, immediately stood up and said to his father. After that, Old Man Ge Cunzhuang greeted Chen An and went into the house to rest alone.
Uncle Ge also pulled Chen An inside and asked, "Didn't you just come back from Hollywood? Why did you come to me today for something?" "I heard that our Mr. Ge is unemployed at home. How can I waste this opportunity? I came to you right after I finished writing the script, hehe." Chen An laughed as he took the script out of his bag. You've been clamoring for the script, right? I'll write it for you this time. I've been shooting comedies for several years, so I'll give you some intensity first so you don't end up following Feng Xiaogang and wasting time. Uncle Ge watched Chen An take out a thick, neatly bound script from his bag and took it in his hand. On it were written the words "Hello! Mr. Tree" in large letters. "This is the script you told me about before. Is it finally written?" "No, this is another one. It's not the one you and Gong Li have, but it's also pretty good." “When will the work start?” Uncle Ge asked directly without even looking at the script. Chen An smiled and said, "Don't you want to take a look?" "No need to look at it. We have finally waited for this, so we must not give up. I am idle at home today and have no work to do. The landlord has no surplus food." Uncle Ge stuffed the script directly into his arms, put the script in his room, and then went downstairs to prepare tea for Chen An. "Have you found other actors?" Uncle Ge, who was pouring tea for Chen An, asked with his head down. Chen An picked up a cookie and stuffed it into his mouth. "You are the first one. I haven't started looking for the rest yet. I just finished writing and printing it the day before yesterday. I submitted it for review today and came to you." "You have the heaviest burden in this drama, so I'll show it to you first so you can prepare early." After saying that, he picked up the teacup, blew on the scalding hot tea, and took a sip. After pouring the tea, Uncle Ge also sat down beside him, found a comfortable position, and leaned his head on the sofa. "Then I will take a closer look and make preparations early." Chen An also followed his example and lay on the sofa, "You have to take a closer look. I plan to take it to Berlin next year." "Then I have to read more and stop chatting with you." After hearing what Chen An said, Uncle Ge could no longer resist the curiosity to read the script.
He simply leaned his hands on the sofa, stood up, and walked upstairs without paying any attention to Chen An. Chen An didn't care about this scene. Instead, he smiled and hoped that the other party would like the script. He continued to lie down for a while, drank the tea on the table, then stood up and left. After a long time, Uncle Ge hurried downstairs, holding the script and muttering: "Xiao Chen, my Director Chen, you are really good at writing scripts." When he looked up, he didn't see Chen An, only the cup of finished tea on the table. Chen An got in the car driven by Zhao Xiong and left the other party's house. Now they had arrived downstairs of Lightyear Media's company. After parking the car, the two went upstairs together. After entering the company, Zhao Xiong returned to his office area, and Chen An went straight to Li Xiaoping's office. "Sister Xiaoping, please help me contact Director Zhang of Xi'an Film Studio. We are about to start shooting a new movie. Would you be willing to cooperate?" Chen An said straight to the point as he walked into the door. If you want to know the best talent in Chinese-language films, whether it’s directing, photography, lighting or art direction, you can go to Xi’an Film Studio in northwest China. Li Xiaoping asked, "What about Director Han?" She knew the relationship between the two of them, they were partners all the way. "I'll talk to him. You can contact Director Zhang first. See if he's willing to take the 5% share. It's an award-winning film." Chen An's meaning was very clear. The share won't be too big, and it will be eaten by one person. It's just an art film that's competing for the three major awards, not a commercial film. Even Han Sanping's side is the same. This time they mainly want to cooperate with the other party and make use of their talents, and they are willing to put their names on the list. Jiang Wen’s movie is estimated to be finished soon, and then he can grab Gu Changwei over. "The company should also prepare and make preparations in advance. We can start shooting directly after the script is approved." Chen An put the script on the table and asked the other party to take it. First prepare the necessary props and scenery, and deal with the budget and investment. Li Xiaoping took the script and flipped through it without looking at it carefully. "Director Chen, we have several actors in the company who can be used for this role. We still need to interview them." Regarding these, Li Xiaoping first asked about Chen An's situation. He was the one who had the final say on the film arrangements and he was also the boss. "Send an invitation for an interview. I have some roles in mind and I'll notify you when the time comes." Chen An said after thinking for a while. Chen An already has ideas for several characters. As for the heroine, she wanted to try out the legendary gifted monster, Zhou Xun, also known as Mr. Zhou, who starred in "Suzhou River" and "The Story of the Ming Palace" last year. Now that I'm famous, it's easier to find people to cooperate with me, so it would be a pity if I didn't cooperate with him once. There are no requirements for other roles. After saying almost the same thing, Chen An, the hands-off boss, left the company again. To be honest, he, the boss, is the one who comes here the least. Only Li Xiaoping works hard here as if it were her home. I went downstairs with Zhao Xiong again and continued driving. As the car drove slowly, Chen An discovered that many of the advertising banners along the street had photo advertisements of Zeng Li or Yu Jinghong. However, compared to Yu Jinghong, the first generation An Girl, Zeng Li, who came later, has fewer advertising billboards.
Although she has taken on many TV dramas since then compared to Zeng Li, none of them have been released yet. It's understandable that the other party attacked so harshly. Now Chen An didn't dare to go find her anymore, as he thought the attack would be even more severe. Facing the tough confrontation with the foreigners, Chen An was a little scared of this fellow citizen. After a while of daydreaming, the car arrived at its destination. It’s the Beijing Film Studio that I used to visit often. However, it has been merged now, but the appointment has not been formally made, and Han Sanping’s office is still here. Although he hadn't been there for several months, Chen An still found his office with ease. There's no way, this road is as familiar as the road to school. I watched it twice and I feel like I'm going crazy
