Chapter 279 What a talent!
"Hey!"
"What are you doing?"
Looking at the little fat man surrounding the car, Richard shouted at him.
Hearing someone shouting, the little fat boy was startled and then dodged to the side.
Li Changhe took a closer look and found that it was indeed the "Fat Mantis" who had been famous in the martial arts world for a long time.
When he saw Richard and Li Changhe, the little fat boy narrowed his eyes, a bright smile broke out on his face, and he trotted over.
"Lei Hou, sir, I'm Wang Jing, currently a screenwriter for TVB."
That’s right, this little fat guy is the future famous quick-shooter director Wang Jing.
"What are you doing around our car?"
Richard asked Wang Jing with a cold face.
"I'm curious, I'm curious, this is a famous Mercedes, let's take a look at the decoration inside"
"Boss, are you from Planet Films?"
At this time, Wang Jing asked Li Changhe with a charming smile.
"Why are you asking me? How do you know I'm the boss?"
Li Changhe looked at him and asked curiously.
"This gentleman is the driver. I have seen him several times every time I pick up Miss Guan."
"Now that you're here, you must be the boss."
"Boss, I'm Wang Jing, a screenwriter for TVB. I've written many scripts. Last year's "Legend of Chu Liuxiang" and the movie "Lin Shirong" were all my works."
"Oh? So?"
Li Changhe looked at Wang Jing with a smile.
Wang Jing flattered her face and said, "Your company sent Miss Guan here to learn acting, so you must have thought about making a movie for her."
"I am not very talented, but if you need me, I can write a movie script for Miss Guan."
"With Miss Guan's beautiful looks, she will surely become an instant hit, more famous than Zhao Yazhi."
At this moment, Wang Jing stated his purpose and strongly recommended himself.
Although Wang Jing appeared suddenly, he had actually been planning this matter for a long time and was just waiting for Richard to bring people.
There is no way, he is poor!
At present, the Wang family is just an ordinary working class, relying on TVB to pay their salary.
But given Mr. Shao's stinginess, he was so stingy with the actors, not to mention the screenwriter.
With so little money every month, he had to spend on food and drink, dating girls, horse racing, and playing Pai Gow, which was not enough to spend.
So, there is no choice but to start a side job.
However, most film companies now have their own screenwriters, and even many film company founders can write their own scripts, so they don’t think highly of him at all.
Therefore, it is not easy for Wang Jing to make extra money.
However, the appearance of Guan Jiahui made him interested.
At first, Wang Jing looked at this pretty girl and was about to take action, but he soon gave up the idea.
A beautiful girl who is sent by Heiji to study every day, who knows who is the big boss behind the scenes.
But when the first plan failed, the fat boy came up with another one.
This girl's beauty should not be disturbed, but maybe you can make money from her.
After all, seeing that this girl didn't even have an acting training teacher, Wang Jing guessed that the other party's company might not be so formal.
So, the fat boy asked around and soon came up with a plan.
He had actually been waiting for many days, but every time Richard came with Guan Jiahui, a driver and an artist, which was of no use at all.
Wang Jing was not in a hurry and just waited. Finally, today came and he saw that besides Richard and Guan Jiahui, another young handsome guy walked in.
And looking at Richard's respectful look, it's no surprise that this man must be a big shot.
So when he found the opportunity, the fat guy stood in front of the car, ready to sell himself.
"You want to write a script for Guan Jiahui?"
Li Changhe asked Wang Jing with a smile at this time.
Wang Jing nodded, and then said shamelessly: "In fact, if the boss trusts me, I can also be a director."
"My father, Wang Tianlin, is a top director and producer of TVB. I grew up on the set and am very familiar with all of this."
At this time, Wang Jing patted his chest and boasted to Li Changhe.
Anyway, looking at this big guy, I'm afraid he's not an expert, so I'll just brag first.
What if this guy is stupid and has a lot of money and believes it?
In order to win the heart of the girl, why did they invest in him and let him be a director?
Wang Jing thought secretly in his heart at this moment.
Li Changhe was looking at him.
This guy is quite interesting. He is using the same tactics that were used to fool investors.
Being stared at by Li Changhe, Wang Jing felt a little hesitant.
This big guy doesn't look like someone who is easy to fool, and he doesn't seem like the kind of uneducated young man.
Otherwise, you can just take a step back and just get a few thousand yuan for the script.
Wang Jing was thinking secretly in his heart.
Li Changhe smiled and asked, "You are working at TVB now, how much is your monthly salary?"
"Three thousand. No, it's less than five thousand."
"It's mainly because sometimes there's some other income, so it's not fixed."
At this time, Wang Jing hurriedly tried to excuse himself.
In fact, his salary at TVB was just over 2,000 yuan a month, which was not much at all.
Li Changhe looked at Wang Jing with a smile, this kid is quite cunning.
With Shao Daheng being so stingy, how could a humble screenwriter like him get a salary of four or five thousand?
The average annual income per capita in Hong Kong Island is only about 30,000 Hong Kong dollars, but this is per capita, and this average has a large error.
In fact, the average salary of ordinary workers is between fifteen thousand and two thousand, and a salary above two thousand is considered good.
Three to five thousand is the salary for celebrities to make a movie. How can a screenwriter like him earn that much?
Li Changhe's joking smile made Wang Jing feel a little uneasy.
It was a feeling of being seen through, as if one's thoughts were seen through by the other person at a glance.
“Actually, my price is lower.”
"How about switching jobs to our company for 5,000 a month?"
Wang Jing was just about to take a step back when Li Changhe suddenly spoke.
"Ok?"
Hearing Li Changhe's words, Wang Jing raised his head in surprise and looked at Li Changhe.
"Five thousand?"
"Yes, the monthly salary is 5,000. How about it? Do you want to come?" Li Changhe said to Wang Jing with a smile.
"Boss, you are not kidding me, are you?"
"Are you really going to give me a monthly salary of 5,000?"
At this time, Wang Jing felt both surprised and frightened.
Five thousand monthly salary?
Not teasing him?
"If you don't believe me, you don't have to come!"
Li Changhe said with a smile.
"Xin, sir, I will resign immediately!"
The little fat boy didn't hesitate at this time and ran in.
It’s just quitting TVB, what’s the big deal?
Thanks to his father's connections, if he can't make it out there, it would be easy for him to come back and work; it wouldn't be difficult at all.
At this moment, on the third floor of TVB, in Wang Tianlin’s office, the fat boy Wang Jing kicked open the door and hurried in.
"What are you going to do, you little brat? Why are you so unruly?"
Seeing that it was his son, Wang Tianlin shouted at Wang Jing angrily.
"Dad, I want to quit"
After Wang Jing entered the room, he spoke to his father arrogantly.
"Resign? You're crazy. If you resign, what are you going to do?"
Wang Tianlin said to Wang Jing with disdain.
"Tsk, Dad, I'm quitting for this little salary."
"The boss downstairs has a keen eye for talent and has identified me as a talent. He wants to recruit me to his company and offer me a salary of 5,000 yuan a month!"
"Do you think I should go? Only a fool would not go."
Wang Jing said to his father with a smile.
"Five thousand?"
"Which boss is downstairs?"
"Why are you worth five thousand?"
A salary of five thousand is not much different from his.
Wang Tianlin found it hard to imagine who would offer such a high salary to his fat son?
"It's the film company that Miss Guan works for, the one that drives a Mercedes every day."
"They use luxury cars worth millions to pick up actors, and offering me a salary of 5,000 is nothing more than a drop in the bucket."
"Anyway, I'm just telling you that I won't be working tomorrow."
"Of course, I will definitely finish the work at hand."
Wang Jing said proudly to Wang Tianlin.
Wang Tianlin looked at Wang Jing. Judging from his son's attitude, he didn't think he was lying.
"Is there really someone offering you a salary of 5,000 yuan?"
"I'm not lying to you?"
Wang Jing was a little speechless at this time: "The big boss said it himself, why did he lie to a small screenwriter like me?"
"Then why did he find you? You are not famous."
Wang Tianlin said subconsciously.
"Dad, you don't know this, opportunities are created by yourself."
"I just"
Wang Jing told Wang Tianlin about his amazing operation.
When Wang Tianlin heard this, he looked at Wang Jing speechlessly.
This boy is really bold!
"Well, take me down to have a look, and I'll ask for you."
Wang Tianlin spoke to Wang Jing seriously at this time.
Although his son is not very successful, Wang Tianlin still cares about him very much.
"Okay!"
Wang Jing hesitated for a moment and agreed.
It’s also a good thing to let his dad help him check things.
On the other side, at the entrance of TVB, Richard looked at Li Changhe with some curiosity.
"Boss, do you really want 5,000 yuan to sign that fat guy?"
He just felt that his boss was too casual in signing people. Just because someone said a few words to him, he would sign a contract with a high salary?
Li Changhe smiled and said, "That boy is quite talented!"
Li Changhe didn't expect that Wang Jing would come to him on his own initiative.
The key is that he really needs Wang Jing.
This guy has wild and unconstrained ideas, and can be called an online writer in the 1980s and 1990s. For example, in 1986, he made "The Magic Emerald"
The film contains aliens, magical emeralds, KGB agents and other urban elements.
This guy's movies don't have much artistic value, but they are quite interesting in terms of commercial entertainment.
Li Changhe conceived the Hong Kong film universe himself, so it is impossible for him to write all the scripts himself.
Well, Wang Jing can be his ghostwriter. He can just come up with the core ideas and let Wang Jing write for him.
In addition, Li Changhe still remembers that Wang Jing was very methodical when making movies.
His films rarely make a loss and are very commercially successful, which is rare in Hong Kong Island.
Movies like those made by Wong Kar-wai are full of artistic style, but the investors lose everything.
Get a prize?
What’s the point of winning the award? Mainland China doesn’t recognize it!
Li Changhe's purpose in making movies is actually to influence the three views of mainland pirated audiences through movie promotion. In this regard, Wang Jing can be said to be the most suitable candidate.
"Hello, boss. This is my father, Wang Tianlin."
At this moment, Wang Jing came out with a fat man and came in front of Li Changhe.
"Hello, sir. I am the father of this brat, TVB producer Wang Tianlin."
At this time, Wang Tianlin took the initiative to extend his hand to Li Changhe and introduced himself!
