Chapter 13 He is the most suitable person
Gu Xiucheng wanted to treat them to a meal, which was absolutely unique in their circle.
Even when Shengshi was just beginning to develop, Gu Xiucheng had never given anyone such face.
After all, Gu Xiucheng entered the market with capital, and with him in Shengshi's hands, even if it was a small company that had just begun to develop, others would have to curry favor with Shengshi.
Later, even if there were occasional banquets that required Gu Xiucheng's attendance, or some special projects, Gu Xiucheng would basically leave after showing up.
This is definitely the first time we have a formal dinner like today.
How could the invited bigwigs dare to neglect Gu Xiucheng?
I arrived more than an hour earlier than the agreed time because I was worried about something unexpected happening. If I was late for Gu Xiucheng's appointment, it wouldn't just be a matter of a word or a glass of wine.
"You all arrived so early?"
These people, who usually have others waiting for them outside, now look at each other with some worry in their eyes.
"This guy doesn't easily invite people to dinner. What happened today? How did we offend him?"
"Why do you always scare yourself? What if he has something to ask of us?"
The others looked at the person who spoke. Gu Xiucheng was begging them?
"What? Didn't you check Dynasty's stocks before you went out? He's begging us, you might as well hope the sky falls."
"I'm just joking to lighten the mood. After all, even though there are so many of us here, I still can't help but feel a little scared when I think about the person I'm going to face soon."
No one can face Gu Xiucheng calmly, even if they are older than him.
But they had to admit that when they occasionally met Gu Xiucheng, they were really nervous, and it was not an exaggeration at all.
This kind of temperament seems to be something Gu Xiucheng was born with.
As they were chatting, the door of the box was opened again.
Naturally, it’s the person who organized today’s party.
Seeing Gu Xiucheng, everyone stood up subconsciously.
"Mr. Gu."
Gu Xiucheng greeted everyone as he walked in: "Is everyone here?"
"Yes, Mr. Gu, since you invited us, of course we have to arrive early. We dare not be late at all. I just don't know what your meal is today?"
Gu Xiucheng was different from those who liked to listen to flattery and clink glasses. He preferred to get straight to the point, so no one dared to greet Gu Xiucheng too much.
After all, even if they told Gu Xiucheng, he might not pay any attention to them.
"Please sit down and wait for a while. Some people haven't arrived yet."
Hearing this, the others looked at each other.
Anyone else?
Who is the person who dares to make Gu Xiucheng wait for the dinner party organized by Gu Xiucheng?
A few people winked at each other, signaling Zeng Shun to ask a few questions so that they would have a better idea of the situation and avoid offending anyone.
Zeng Shun was also nervous, but Zeng Shun was the one who was most familiar with Gu Xiucheng.
He has a lot of cooperation with Shengshi, and usually meets with Gu Xiucheng the most.
After considering it for a moment, Zeng Shun took the initiative to ask, "Mr. Gu, I wonder why you called us all here today?"
Gu Xiucheng tapped the table lightly: "I remember Director Zeng has a script he wants to film but hasn't decided on the roles yet."
When Gu Xiucheng mentioned it, they remembered it.
Zeng Shun has had a script in his hand for many years, and screenwriters, directors, and other people have participated in adapting it into more than a dozen versions.
Zeng Shun originally wrote this script for an award.
But the script was finalized, but a fatal problem arose: I couldn't find a suitable role.
The supporting roles are okay, but the most important one is the protagonist.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zeng Shun felt that the protagonist was truly a fairy-like figure, and he could not find a suitable role for her even after searching the entire entertainment industry.
The appearance that matches my expectations is not accompanied by a good temperament, and the temperament that matches my expectations is not satisfactory either.
Zeng Shun was so angry that he had to put the script aside.
At this moment, everyone present suddenly realized that almost all the people attending the dinner today were those who participated in the script writing and casting at that time.
Zeng Shunxin thought it was bad, Gu Xiucheng came prepared today.
Gu Xiucheng's preparations were naturally for this script.
If it were another script, and Gu Xiucheng wanted to intervene, Zeng Shun would be perfectly willing to do so.
After all, with such a God of Wealth in the crew, there is no need to worry about funding issues.
But this script is different for Zeng Shun or for everyone present. It was their painstaking creation, and in the end they were even willing to give up on the script and not start filming, which was enough to show their determination.
Now that Gu Xiucheng suddenly proposed it, if they refused rashly, wouldn't Gu Xiucheng be angry? But if they didn't refuse, how could they bear to see their hard work being wasted?
They were all experienced people in the entertainment industry, so of course they understood what Gu Xiucheng meant.
Gu Xiucheng wants to promote someone and use their script as a stepping stone.
"Mr. Gu, there's something wrong with the script. The roles are hard to choose. We've already put it on hold and don't plan to shoot it."
As soon as Zeng Shun said this, the table instantly became quiet.
Everyone else's hearts were also hanging in the air.
Although they did not dare to resist Gu Xiucheng, this script was also their hard work, so they still wanted to give it a try.
"Yes, Mr. Gu, that script was more difficult than we imagined. Our original ideas were too idealistic, so we don't plan to shoot it. After so many years, that script should be outdated."
Gu Xiucheng tapped the table lightly with his fingers without saying a word.
This attitude clearly shows that they don't believe what they say.
Several people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
"Mr. Gu, I'm not sure what you mean by mentioning this script?" Wu Yu asked, not wanting to let the awkward situation continue.
If it was just a supporting role, they could agree to Gu Xiucheng first, and then Gu Xiucheng would have nothing to say if they couldn't find a suitable candidate for the leading role.
And if he really wanted to promote someone, he definitely wouldn't have dragged it out like this.
"I want to recommend someone to play the leading role."
Gu Xiucheng said he was recommending it, but others heard it as if he wanted to make his own person the protagonist.
Zeng Shun exploded: "I don't..."
Before he could utter the word "agree", the door of the room was opened again.
Looking at the door, Zeng Shun suddenly froze in place.
A young man in a camel coat stood there, looking at the other people in the room with a slightly nervous look.
There was tenderness in the young man's brows and he was very polite.
At this moment, Zeng Shun suddenly felt that the brilliant protagonist in his script seemed to have traveled through time and space and appeared before him.
At this moment he could not hear any other sound, only one sentence in his mind.
[It's him. He's the most suitable person.]
