On the surface, Lu Jiaxin behaved well, and couldn't wait to read the script when she got back. The story of the heroine's family changes and studying was not very long, and the exciting part was after she entered the workplace.
The screenwriter wrote three cases, and Lu Jiaxin thought they were very well written after reading them. Each of these three cases is very meaningful and also represents the growth of the heroine.
He immediately called Yan Yihua. Unexpectedly, the other party smiled when he received his call: "Boss, Mr. Nie just told me that you would call me and asked me to talk to you tomorrow. I didn't believe it, but I didn't expect you to call me."
Lu Jiaxin didn't expect Nie Zhan to be so thoughtful. She said, "I have three cases here. After reading them, I don't understand some of them, so I want to ask you for advice."
Yan Yihua looked at his watch and said, "Boss, it's already 11:40. Tomorrow is Sunday, so you don't have to go to class. I can come to your house and explain it to you in detail."
This was a polite refusal. Well, there was no rush, and it would be bad to disturb others' rest.
Lu Jiaxin felt embarrassed when she heard this: "Okay, we'll discuss this tomorrow morning."
The next day, Lu Jiaxin was having breakfast when Yan Yihua arrived. She smiled and asked, "Did you have breakfast? We didn't eat together."
Yan Yihua didn't bother to be polite with Lu Jiaxin, and said with a smile: "I had a sandwich and drank a glass of milk in the car. If you have more, give me some too."
Lu Jiaxin asked, "I have macaroni here. Can I ask the chef to make you some seafood macaroni?"
Yan Yihua said that there was no need to go to such trouble and that we could just eat whatever we had: "Your buns and porridge are great."
Lu Jiaxin also took his taste into consideration. Seeing that she was willing to eat steamed buns and porridge, she asked the chef to serve another portion. For breakfast, she ate what Gu Wenfeng and the others ate, without any distinction.
Yan Yihua didn't like the steamed buns, but the seafood porridge was delicious, and he couldn't help but eat two bowls. He wouldn't drink so much porridge on weekdays, but today was Sunday and he didn't have to worry about it.
After breakfast, Lu Jiaxin took out the script and discussed it with him.
After reading the script, Yan Yihua smiled and asked, "Boss, are you going to make a movie?"
Lu Jiaxin did not deny it. She said, "Please help me see if there is any problem with the way these three cases are handled from a professional perspective. If there is a problem, it must be corrected."
When writing a workplace drama, you have to ask professionals to check it. She doesn't want the movie she invested in to be made up. Even if the movie fails and loses money, the plot must be logical and there must be no problems with professional knowledge.
Yan Yihua read it carefully and said that there was nothing wrong with the laws and regulations written above, but there were some problems in the narrative expression, and then he made some revisions based on it.
Because Yan Yihua was narrating, Lu Jiaxin recorded what he said with a tape recorder and would send it to the screenwriter for revision later.
Yan Yihua smiled and said, "Boss, I think this script is very well written. If you agree, our law firm is willing to provide professional advice for this film."
The main thing is that Lu Jiaxin has a purpose and plan for everything she does, unlike some young people who act on impulse. He doesn't know what Lu Jiaxin's real purpose is in making this movie, but one thing is for sure, she will invite the best director and the best actors to make this movie. Unlike Nie Jingting, making movies is completely taken for granted, the protagonist must be pleasing to the eye, and the director must be compatible with him. If he were to say, Nie Jingting might as well take the money to invest in movies, maybe a blind cat will meet a dead mouse, and he can make some money back.
Lu Jiaxin joked: "Is it free?"
Hongchang Law Firm has a great reputation in Hong Kong. They are willing to provide free services to her film, so Lu Jiaxin will naturally not push it away: "Then it's settled."
After Yan Yihua finished talking to Lu Jiaxin, he went to find his uncle. Although he thought this matter would benefit the law firm, he still had to tell his uncle.
There was nothing wrong with providing professional advice for a movie for free, after all, the boss was Lu Jiaxin, and he had made millions from her in the past two years. But he knew Yan Yihua's personality, and he must have had some ideas in mind when he came here specially.
Yan Yihua did have an idea. He wanted to expand his business to the entertainment industry. Those movie stars were high-quality clients for them. After all, stars were prone to gossip and lawsuits. But his uncle didn't like the people and things in the entertainment industry and didn't pay much attention to this business. After he joined the law firm, he repeatedly encountered setbacks in his attempts to develop this business.
Yan Hongchang really doesn't like the people and things in the entertainment industry. He feels it's very chaotic, so he doesn't want to get involved. However, as a boss, he has to consider the future development of the law firm. He said, "Since you have an idea, go for it. If you need anything, tell me."
He has two children, one loves photography and now travels around the world, and the other got married early and raises children. Only his nephew Yan Yihua inherited his legacy, and he is smart and capable. He plans to hand over the law firm to him in the future!
Lu Jiaxin met with the screenwriter, and after the two communicated, the screenwriter revised the script again. The script, which had been revised twice, met Lu Jiaxin's requirements.
The script was finalized, and the next step was to find a director. Lu Jiaxin already had a candidate in mind, and that was Director Qi, who had filmed many classic Hong Kong dramas. Director Qi had already filmed a movie, but he was not as famous as he is now, but Lu Jiaxin believed in his ability.
Nie Zhan was not familiar with the entertainment industry. When he heard that she had a candidate, he nodded and said, "Leave it to Tian Pengyu and ask him to talk to Mr. Qi."
Tian Pengyu is the general manager of Wanting Films. Nie Jingting is only in charge of filming, and he is in charge of the overall planning and logistics.
Lu Jiaxin said: "As long as he agrees, the reward is negotiable."
Nie Zhan knew that she was being lenient, so he smiled and said, "It can't be too high. A 10 to 20 percent increase on his original salary will be enough. But if the movie sells well, you can give him a generous bonus."
These are not just verbal remarks, they must be written into the contract.
When Tian Pengyu went to see Director Qi, he refused without even considering it. Everyone knew that Wanting Film and Television was a product created by the fourth young master of the Nie family for his own entertainment. Nie Jingting's movies were shit, but he had money and connections, so bad movies could still be shown in theaters. He was different. This was a career he wanted to fight for all his life, and he didn't want to be associated with Nie Jingting.
Tian Pengyu saw that he refused before he could even speak, and knew that he had misunderstood, so he smiled and said, "Mr. Qi, this movie is to be made by our three young female friends, and the fourth young master will not participate."
Director Qi asked in disbelief, "The fourth young master is not participating?"
"Yes, the Fourth Young Master will not be participating. Miss Lu also said that only suitable actors will be chosen as the leading actors."
If that's the case, you can read the script first. The main reason is that Nie Zhan is quite famous in Hong Kong, and Lu Jiaxin is also famous for being generous. If the script is good, you can talk about it.
