Is the campus belle suffering from dysmenorrhea again? I'll give her a massage! Does the mature sister have breast cancer? Move aside, let me examine her! Is the little loli sick? Let Uncle tak...
If you reject Tang Bao, he may not give you shoes to wear in this circle in the future, but if you really need his help in the future, will he help you?
That would be really weird.
If you are unkind today, I will be unrighteous in the future.
This is an unreasonable thing.
Tang Bao sighed, "Since you've said this, I have nothing to say. Honestly, I've already written the script, and I'm confident I can win this bet. It's not just me who thinks so, Director Feng Dagang thinks so too, because I sent him the script last night, and he called me this morning and wanted to come over to be my assistant director. Actually, it's just a figurehead role. I don't need him to actually direct me, just assist me. After all, I'm still the lead actor. Now that you've refused, I'll have no choice but to ask Director Feng. You don't think highly of me, but fortunately he does. I can't blame you for anything. You have your reasons for refusing, but I really want to say, you'll regret it in the future."
Zheng Ping was taken aback. "What? Director Feng is optimistic about you? How is that possible?"
"If it were anyone else, I would definitely call you a dog-eyed fool, but at least we used to have a good relationship, so I won't scold you. But since this is the case, we can be said to be at odds with each other, so let's leave it at that for today. I'm really sorry for disturbing you."
Tang Bao finally couldn't help it and frowned as he ordered them to leave.
And now, Zheng Ping finally realized that something was wrong.
Judging from the tone, Tang Bao is going to draw a clear line between them from now on.
Of course, he didn't want to offend Qi Wenfeng and his son, but he also didn't want to offend Tang Bao.
Thinking about the relationship between Tang Bao and Zhao Haiyang at this time, he felt a little regretful and immediately changed his words: "Brother Tang——"
"You should call me Mr. Tang."
Tang Bao interrupted him.
Suddenly, Zheng Ping's face changed slightly and turned a little red, but he still began to make amends.
"Okay, Mr. Tang, I'm sorry I couldn't help you this time. It's really because I lack confidence in you. How about you show me your script? If it's really good, we can still talk. I'm not a disloyal person. After all, we are good friends. I will try my best to help you as long as there is a hope of winning."
Look, he is still making conditions.
He will only help if there is hope of winning.
This is what it means to protect your reputation.
This is because I am afraid of being dragged down.
Tang Bao smiled.
He was even more moved when he thought about Feng Dagang secretly fighting for a share of the box office revenue for him.
Comparing goods will lead to throwing them away, comparing people will lead to death.
There is no harm without comparison.
This is absolutely true.
Compared with Feng Dagang, Zheng Ping is really far behind.
Before doing anything, be a good person first.
There is something wrong with Zheng Ping's character.
But Tang Bao didn't refuse him. He took out a USB drive and handed it to Ji Min, saying, "Mr. Ji, could you please print out the script for me?"
Ji Min was also curious because there was a printer in this office.
Ten minutes later, the script was printed out.
Zheng Ping took the script and started reading it.
After just a few minutes of reading, his expression changed. He stood up and praised, "This paragraph is well written."
Tang Bao curled his lips.
So what?
Does it have anything to do with you?
If he didn't want to see Zheng Ping regretful, there would be no need for him to show the script to Zheng Ping.
He was not afraid that Zheng Ping would leak the plot. China did a good job in copyright, and Tang Bao had already filed the script.
Anyone who dares to plagiarize or imitate will only bring trouble upon themselves.
Moreover, he has too many scripts in his mind, which can be regarded as a welfare gift package that comes with his super director skills. If the secrets are leaked, he can just come up with a new script. To be honest, this script is not the best.
Of course, he believed that Zheng Ping didn't have the courage to leak it, otherwise, he would not be polite.
Zheng Ping had been watching for almost ten minutes, and at least five times, he couldn't help but cheer out loud.
After watching for about twenty minutes, he called out "good" more than ten times.
Finally, he finished reading the script.
Sitting down again, Zheng Ping hesitated for a moment, as if struggling with something, and finally said, "This script is so well written."
Tang Bao remained indifferent.
Very good?
Oh, I know, but does this have anything to do with you?
Ji Min was also considered an expert, so he took the script and started reading it.
But he read very quickly, just skimming the surface.
But after just a few glances, he was somewhat moved.
Wonderful, it’s really wonderful.
The advancement of the plot, the creation of atmosphere, and the direction of the story are simply wonderful.
Seeing that Tang Bao ignored him, Zheng Ping's face turned even redder. Finally, he said, "How about I promise to come over and help you direct the show?"
sweat……
You see, he is really interested in this script.
Originally, he was not optimistic about Tang Bao at all, but now, after reading the script, he had confidence. As long as he was allowed to direct, he was at least 50% sure that he could create a hit movie, no, at least 60%.
Coupled with Tang Bao's appeal, even if his acting skills are not that good, with the hype from his die-hard fans and some money spent on advertising, it is very likely that he will create a masterpiece.
So, he felt itchy.
He said this shamelessly.
Tang Bao smiled meaningfully. "You're not optimistic about me, are you? You think this script can win this bet? Qi Wenfeng is your friend, aren't you afraid of offending him? Besides, he's incredibly popular right now, and every movie he does is a huge hit."
This is a slap in the face.
It's a blatant slap in the face.
Zheng Ping was so ashamed.
But he didn't want to lose this opportunity.
If this film goes well, his fame will surely soar.
There are only a few great directors in China, and he is one of them. Their levels are similar, but their fame varies, and they are good at different subjects. This subject happens to be what he is best at. Once he creates a box office myth, he will become a top-tier figure, which will be of great benefit to his future career.
Profit comes first.
Under this principle, Ji Ping no longer has any principles.
He said shamelessly, "Brother Tang, I admit I was wrong. I didn't read the script and jumped to conclusions. We are good friends after all, and we worked together on 'Heroes of the Swordsman'. Martial arts films like this are what I'm best at. If you let me do it, I'm sure I can do it better than anyone else. No other director in this industry is more suitable for this script than me, including Director Feng."
"Haha, Director Zheng, you probably forgot what I just said. I'm actually looking for someone to assist me, someone who can be my deputy or assistant. I can direct the show myself."
"You direct it?" Zheng Ping quickly shook his head. "No, you have to listen to me. You've never directed a movie before. Such a good script can't be wasted."
