Chapter 319 Sufficient Reason
Su Yun was inexplicably distracted by Zha Lan's life-threatening call. He pondered for a moment and finally decided to hang up the phone.
Anyway, he wouldn't chase her down, haha - at this time, Su Yun really didn't expect that a few months later, "Zorro" would be so popular in mainland China that Zha Lan would be invited to travel in China, and then when he heard the news that she was in the capital, he would rush over to settle the score with her.
After hanging up the phone, Su Yun went back to writing the report, thinking that travel is not as convenient as it will be in the future due to various factors and that one cannot fly around the world anytime and anywhere as long as one wants.
To be precise, it cannot be considered a traditional report document, but rather a mix of plans for future R&D and marketing work after careful consideration of wording and summarizing the current R&D progress.
Comparing the various proposals previously submitted by the R&D team, Su Yun gradually removed the obvious and subtle wrong route proposals, and then began to fill in the relevant details of the correct route.
In the beginning, such high-tech products must have been popularized from top to bottom, and then gradually improved and made less rare and more popular according to the existing precedents: for example, telephones and smartphones, from being a symbol of status that only wealthy people could own, to later becoming free for everyone who recharged their phone bills over a certain amount, all it took was time, but also more than time.
Just as Su Yun was thinking about her future surfing the Internet and writing something methodically, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
I pressed the hands-free button casually: "What's up?"
"Ms. Su, someone is here to see you. The names they reported are..." The front desk assistant who was in charge of recording visitor information read out the names one by one, and then asked, "Do you want to talk to them?"
"Wait a moment." After Su Yun heard the name clearly, he quickly speeded up his movements.
At the same time, the two young men standing outside were sitting on one side and facing each other with some vigilance.
"Are you free recently?" Tom always couldn't help talking, and he spoke first before the confrontation lasted long.
Su Yun was too partial. She had come to New York but didn't inform him of the news. Later, when Meg and Ovitz went to have dinner with a director to discuss the terms of cooperation, they met Su Yun and Bowen who were having dinner in the same restaurant. Only then did they know that she had come here secretly.
What’s most annoying is that Meg, a good neighbor who had worked hard together to get to where she is today, actually hid it from him!
Or when he went to Ovitz to answer questions about a movie role invitation, Ovitz accidentally said, "If you really can't make up your mind, you can go to Mary, she is in New York now." Only then did he realize that he was the one who was left out intentionally or unintentionally...
"I do have some free time, but the main reason is that my new movie role is very challenging, and Mary and I have a lot of musical ideas to exchange, so we will try to find time to get together and talk recently." After all, Bourne once worked in music in Japan, so naturally he has a lot more to talk about than Tom, who focuses on the film industry.
Tom was dumbfounded at the loss and was just thinking about how to make up for it in other ways when he suddenly saw Meg coming over with a small box.
"Why are you here?" Tom still remembered her previous secret and asked in a muffled voice.
"I made some cookies, and thought I'd give them to Mary since she's been busy with work lately." Meg said guiltily when she saw Tom arrived before her, after talking to the front desk assistant and preparing to sit on the sofa next to her to wait for a response.
"She's very busy right now. It's better not to disturb her too much with such unimportant matters, right?" Bourne said nearby.
Tom quickly helped out, "Yes, I went to see her because I had something important to do."
He made better pancakes and other things than Meg did. She was too embarrassed to bring food to such an outskirts of the laboratory, but Meg was so heartless.
"Is that so? Mainly, I just learned this, and since Mary is here, I wanted to share it with her..." Meg felt embarrassed and spoke in a lower voice.
At this time, after receiving Su Yun's reply, the front desk assistant waved to the three people, indicating that they should go over and answer the phone.
"I'm very busy recently. You should learn to handle work matters on your own..." Su Yun rejected Bourne and Tom's requests in a businesslike tone, then softened her tone and said, "Meg, I'll ask Assistant Rosa to open the door for you. Please wait for me in the small reception room inside. I'll change into my protective coat and come over. I'm a little hungry."
Unexpectedly, it was Meg who got the chance to go in. Bourne and Tom looked at each other in surprise.
Meg laughed. "See, there's no use in finding so many excuses. I might as well just say I missed Mary, and she'd let me in right away."
Although Su Yun invited the three of them to have lunch together before leaving the next day, this oolong dinner made them understand Su Yun a little better: sometimes, Su Yun prefers direct and straightforward answers rather than roundabout ones.
Unfortunately, by the time they realized this, Su Yun had already boarded the plane back to Hong Kong.
After returning to Hong Kong, Su Yun sat on the sofa at home and made a lot of calls on the phone. She finally made a rough appointment and planned to gather the crew members of "Sister Exorcist" in a few days, and then seize the time to prepare for the filming of this summer blockbuster aimed at reaping box office revenue in Asia.
Wang Zheng agreed readily on the phone: "Don't worry when I do the work. It's only the beginning of April. According to the production speed of Xiangjiang Films, it won't take more than a month if you work hard. It mainly depends on your post-production work." Special effects production time and schedule issues..."
“But you’re Mary Sue, so it seems I should be the one who has the least to worry about…” Although Su Yun has one foot in Hollywood and has a big-production spirit of striving for perfection when filming movies, apart from this one point that makes her unlike a Hong Kong filmmaker, the rest of what she is good at and what she pursues are all the styles of Hong Kong filmmakers.
For example, the shooting speed, and making corresponding adjustments in the shortest time according to the actual situation; and once the pursuit of commercialization, there will definitely be no situation where the pursuit of connotation leads to a weird situation.
Besides, Su Yun is one of the few people in the company who can make a lot of money. With the advantage of being the "biological daughter", she can compete for the best schedules and investments to the greatest extent... She is strong enough, popular with the audience, and resources and luck are always on her side. As long as there is no unexpected natural disaster or man-made calamity, or Su Yun knows that something is impossible but still insists on doing it, with this combination of punches, it will be difficult for her to end in failure.
No wonder everyone in the industry thinks Su Yun is a "lucky star" and everyone wants to work with her to gain both fame and fortune.
If it was a film like "The Grave Robbers" that had to be filmed in mainland China and had a protest-like tone in its content, so it was a bit "sensitive", Wang Zheng knew that he didn't have the material at the moment and was concerned about Taiwan's attitude. Even if he was really given the role, he would definitely not dare to take it.
However, commercial films like "Sister Exorcist" which do not contain sensitive content and are aimed at reaping box office revenue are his forte.
He is not the kind of coward like Er Dongxing who is always cautious and has to make all preparations before starting!
As long as the right opportunity comes before you, no matter whether you are capable of it or not, you must grab it tightly!
As for Su Yun's trusting behavior in ignoring his meager qualifications in the film industry and throwing this huge opportunity in front of him, he would not only hold on to this opportunity, but also do a good job. .
If he really didn't do very well, he could still secretly rely on his father - his biological father, Wang Qianyun, was one of the founding fathers of the Zhao family.
Now we are talking about making money, so it is not bad to use some harmless cheating tricks...
Although it is not known whether Su Yun gave him this opportunity out of consideration for his father's sake, Wang Zheng still feels that after working in the TV station for so many years, he has finally got lucky and has boarded the ship of the company's new generation of big bosses: Zhao Rifu was already at this age and had intended to retire a long time ago, but the reason he still persisted until now was mainly because he had not been able to find a suitable successor before.
Now, he has his daughter Su Yun in charge of production, and his long-cherished nephew Zhao Liying as successor, as well as his two sons Zhao Liming and Zhao Lizhong in charge of company management. Zhao Rifu estimates that he will only take the lead for a few more years to help the next generation lay a solid foundation, and then after the next generation can take over the company securely, he will choose to retire and enjoy life.
In this way, accepting the recruitment of the next generation of the Zhao family, and the new generation of Zhao family management in the future, is the safest position. Maybe because of the early position, you can have "from" in the future. "Dragon Power"...
After Wang Zheng honestly explained his current situation on the phone and asked her to let him know if there was anything he didn't do well, Su Yun smiled and said, "I really think you are very suitable for commercial movies, and you are also good at creating gimmicks - this is also a way of attracting attention that I like."
"Of course, I'm the 'Bridge King' on TV." After receiving Su Yun's praise, Wang Zheng immediately felt relieved. "I will take care of the other details as soon as possible in the next few days. Then you can just go to the studio and start shooting!"
"Okay, you do it, I'm at ease." Su Yun smiled and hung up the phone.
After finishing all the work, Su Yun picked up the phone again and dialed a number: "Hello, Danny?"
"Hello?" After the caller recognized the identity of the caller, the clear and cheerful voice suddenly became a little hesitant, "Mary...you're back?"
"Well, I'm back." Su Yun chuckled, and then asked, "I miss the chicken balls at Lu Yu Tea House. When can we go have some tea together?"
Before Chen Boyang could respond, a clamor came from the other end of the phone: "Of course you are free at any time!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Perhaps because he held the receiver a little further away, his angry reply sounded a little unreal.
"Why is Lesley at your house again?" Su Yun asked.
"He's going to release an album later and he wants to choose songs, so he asked me for some advice." Chen Baiyang replied: This is not the first time they have listened to songs for each other and chosen songs for each other.
As for Su Yun's invitation... Chen Boyang cleared his throat, his voice so gentle that Su Yun could imagine his downcast expression through the phone, "I don't have work tomorrow morning."
"Okay, see you tomorrow." After Su Yun made an appointment with him, she quickly hung up the phone under Zhao Qiming's complicated gaze.
"Brother, what's with that expression on your face again?" Su Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry: when she made the work call before, he didn't even glance at her, but after she called Chen Boyang, Zhao Qiming instantly became like a cat with its fur standing on end, and approached her cautiously.
"It's nothing, I just suddenly thought that you've grown up, and it's time for you to date..." Zhao Qiming said in a sad tone: Zhuang Long had just gone to the United States to fulfill the performance contract he had signed with the theater there, and Chen Boyang showed up right after, not letting him have a moment's rest.
"Or they will get married soon in the future..." Thinking of how Su Yun had taken the initiative to ask Chen Boyang out for tea, the more Zhao Qiming thought about it, the sadder and more helpless he felt.
Su Yunguan is very opinionated. If she really has her own ideas, then as the eldest brother, I really can't control her like I do my other two sisters.
"You're thinking too far ahead, aren't you?" Su Yun looked at him speechlessly and shook her head, "I won't get married so soon."
"Can you give me a good enough reason?" Zhao Qiming looked unconvinced: it was not just his two younger sisters, Zhao Suwen and Zhao Suyun, he also had many friends who had been clamoring to never get married or to marry and have children later...
As a result, one after another, all the promises were ignored, and those who wanted to get married, those who were ready to get married, and those who wanted to get married right away with pregnancy came one after another.
If he hadn't been so strict, Zhao Suwen and Zhao Suyun might have gone abroad to get married with their boyfriends.
Although Su Yun obviously shows a preference for Chinese-style men, there is still a saying in this world that those who are close to water get the moon first!
Zhao Liming secretly made up his mind: after so many past experiences, no matter what reason Su Yun gave him, he would have enough rebuttals to respond, and then use this conversation to teach Su Yun a lesson, so that she would not be easily deceived by the flowers and plants outside...
Seeing Zhao Qiming's expression, Su Yun thought for a moment and decisively gave him a reason that he could not resist: "I have worked hard for more than ten years to have my current wealth, and you want to take half of it after getting married - it's so difficult!"
