Chapter 281 Is it really that good?
"Why are you here?"

"What are you doing here again?"

"Of course I came here to catch you because I knew you would come."

"Today I have a more vivid understanding of the idiom that a thief calls a thief."

In Ning Kaijun's living room, Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin looked at each other with big eyes and started bickering mode.

Ning Kaijun, who was pouring tea for them on the side, couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene.

They came to Ning Kaijun's house this time for the same purpose.They all wanted to borrow "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Wandering Blue Star" to watch.Let’s see how well written these two books are, and how well they can make Ning Kaijun publicly praise them in such a long way.

However, although Xu Chuan borrowed the book, he did not explicitly tell Ning Kaijun not to show the book to others.

But Ning Kaijun still smiled and said to the two of them: "Shang Qi, Yu Xin, I really can't lend you this book. After all, it hasn't been officially released yet, so I can't make my own decisions."

As soon as these words came out, Jin Shangqi immediately nodded and said: "I understand, I understand Teacher Ning, it is indeed us who were abrupt."

Just as Ye Yu was about to add something more, he heard Ning Kaijun speak first: "But, if you really want to know what is written in these two books.

I can introduce you to Xu Chuan, and I believe he will be happy to give you the book to read. "

"This..." Jin Shangqi hesitated for a moment when he heard this.He and Xu Chuan didn't have much interaction, so he rushed over to ask for books rashly, but it always felt a little inappropriate.

Ye Yuxin had the same idea, so he opened his mouth and said, "Don't bother Teacher Ning. I think it's better to wait until Teacher Xu officially puts these two books on sale, and then we can go to the bookstore to buy them and read them ourselves."

"Yes, this is correct. Mr. Xu is also a recognized talent in our circle. We must support him no matter what he publishes." Jin Shangqi also added a polite word at the right time.

When Ning Kaijun saw the two of them in this state, he immediately laughed out loud and said while laughing: "You guys, don't think so much, isn't his writing just for people to read?

So, I'll call him now and see if we can make an appointment to meet him.You and he are both young leaders in our film and television industry, so we just happen to sit together and exchange ideas. "

"Oh, no, no, no, no, we don't know what to do with what you said. Yu Xin and I are both in our early forties.

How can you be considered a young leader? Teacher Xu is the real young leader. " Upon hearing this, Jin Shangqi immediately waved his hands and said with a smile.

Having said that, in front of Ning Kaijun, Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin can indeed be called young people. People in their early forties are not considered old in the film and television industry.

At this time, Ning Kaijun saw that Jin Shangqi only refuted the topic of age and did not refuse his proposal to call Xu Chuan.

The old man estimated that these two people were indeed somewhat interested in Xu Chuan.So he didn't say any more, but smiled and picked up the phone and called Xu Chuan.

A few minutes later, Ning Kaijun hung up the phone and said to Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin: "You two, Xu Chuan really can't leave now that he's been in the crew all day long.

He thought that it would be better to choose a different date than to hit it, and he wanted to invite the two of them to sit with the crew and guide the crew's work. Do you think? "

"How can we guide Teacher Xu's work?" Jin Shangqi said immediately after hearing this.

"Yes, Teacher Ning, please don't praise us too much. You are going there for the purpose of learning." Ye Yuxin echoed.

"Hahaha, whether it's coaching or studying. It just so happens that I also want to visit the crew. Let me see, how about we go together." Ning Kaijun said and stood up directly.

Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin couldn't help but look at each other when they saw this.

Then, Jin Shangqi asked Ye Yuxin with a sense of self-questioning and answering: "How about going to study?"

"It's not impossible. As the saying goes, you have to live and learn." Ye Yuxin thought for a while and nodded.

Ning Kaijun, who was next to him, almost cried out in joy when he saw this.

Xu Chuan is a tough-talking player, and these two don't look soft-spoken either.

At the same time, in the crew of "Wandering Blue Star" on the other side, Xu Chuan said to Huan Ze: "We have two great people here. It depends on you whether they can become our helpers."

"Who is it?" Huan Ze asked in confusion upon hearing this.

"Have you heard of Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin?" Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"Really?" Huanze became visibly excited when he heard this.

For a science fiction movie, a science fiction movie that attaches great importance to special effects, it is very important whether the art department is awesome or not.

Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin are top domestic film and television art talents.The two people have been responsible for the art work of many domestic blockbusters with other themes.

If they join, the visual effects of the "Wandering Blue Star" crew will definitely reach a higher level.

Moreover, Huan Ze is not worried that his current colleagues in the art department will have any objections to this.Because now they are the ones shouting most fiercely that they need help from the boss.

Thinking of this, Huanze continued: "How come they came? Did you contact them?"

"That's not true. They went to Teacher Ning's house to borrow "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Wandering Blue Star" to read. Of course Teacher Ning couldn't give it to them, so they simply contacted me directly." Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"I think Teacher Ning has found a talent, so he is working hard to bring it to our crew. Needless to say, Teacher Ning is really interested in our project.

I gave myself a 1% discount on the negotiated salary, saying I wanted to spend the money wisely and spend more behind the scenes.Mr. Xu, sometimes I really envy your personal charm. "Huan Ze couldn't help but sigh as he spoke.

As soon as these words came out, even Xu Chuan's face was as thick as a city wall and he couldn't stand it.

He waved his hands with a hot face and said, "Don't say such things to me again in the future. It's not that I have strong personal charm, it's that everyone has the heart to make a science fiction movie."

The original salary negotiated with Ning Kaijun this time was 1000 million. This price was actually low for an actor of Ning Kaijun's level, but Ning Kaijun took the initiative to reduce the salary and only took 100 million.

The reason is, as Huan Ze said just now, the old man wants to spend money wisely. Although he has never made a science fiction movie, he also knows how expensive production is.

And those people who were originally praised by Xu Chuan were Li Fei, Wu Yunfei and others.

After Xu Chuan announced that he had joined the team, he also took the initiative to reduce his salary. Their asking price was even lower, only 80.

To be honest, Xu Chuan did not intend to agree to this approach at first.But after thinking about it carefully, he realized that this behavior might have a positive effect on everyone on the crew.

It's not that Xu Chuan plans to use this as an excuse to ask other members of the crew to also reduce their salaries.Xu Chuan would not raise the salary of the production staff. Not only would he not raise it, but he would also raise it.

This positive effect is actually reflected in the psychological effect of "actors have to star even if their pay is reduced."This must be able to bring some spiritual encouragement to the crew.

Of course, Xu Chuan would definitely not let them suffer in the end.If they make money at the box office, they will be given a big hit.

Thinking of this, Xu Chuan smiled and patted Huan Ze on the shoulder and said: "When Bai Tianyu and Du Wenyu came over to play in the morning, they happened to see me looking forward to a bright future for our crew.

So, that guy Bai Tianyu said that I was the King of Domestic Entertainment Pies and the Little Emperor of Chicken Soup. After I drew a piece of pop music pie for him, I came to draw a piece of pie for the film and television industry.

I definitely won't admit that I'm painting a cake.But sometimes, there are skills I wish you had. "

"Hahahahaha, I try my best, I try my best to learn." Upon hearing this, Huan Ze burst out laughing, "Mr. Xu, to be honest, I am also a member of [San Ge Cake Shop]."

"Hahahahahaha." When Xu Chuan heard this, he also laughed.

[Sange Cake Shop], this is one of the names used by black people on the Internet to call the Xuchuan fan group.

Time passed slowly, and about two hours later, Ning Kaijun brought Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin to the set.

About two hours later, Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin left the crew with the two sets of books Xu Chuan gave them and the confidentiality request.

During this period, they actually didn't have much communication with Xu Chuan.

This is normal, not everyone can communicate with each other.They didn't come with the intention of joining the crew this time.The main thing is to visit and see the situation, and the supplement is to be polite.

However, Huanze remembered Xu Chuan's instructions and chatted a lot with the two of them.They are all outstanding people behind the scenes in the industry, and there are quite a lot of topics to talk about.

After leaving the crew of "Wandering Blue Star", Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin did not go home separately.

Instead, they gathered in the same office where they had watched the video of Xu Chuan's lecture before, and watched the story of "The Wandering Blue Star" one person at a time.

I only watched it for 3 minutes, when Jin Shangqi finished reading the concept of "Wandering Blue Star" that was thrown out at the beginning.

I really couldn’t help shouting: “I’m going to go, good guy, install an engine on Blue Star and take Blue Star to wander around?!”

Ye Yuxin's condition was not much better than him, and he also said with a surprised look on his face: "Is this fucking okay?"

After saying this, the two people said nothing more and continued to watch.

Just one look at it and they couldn't stop at all.

At this time, Jin Shangqi and Ye Yuxin's feeling while watching "The Wandering Blue Star" is the same as that of Internet literature lovers who have found an Internet novel that they like very much.

And because two people are engaged in this industry.While reading, I instinctively built relevant models in my mind about things like planetary engines and space elevators.This gives them a greater sense of immersion.

Two people finished watching "The Wandering Blue Star" and "The Three-Body Problem" in just two days.

At this speed, it would be an understatement to say that he was forgetting all about food and sleep.

After watching it, the two people at home began to communicate directly via video.

The first thing Jin Shangqi said when opening the video was: "Have you read those two books?"

Ye Yuxin, who was opposite the video, had two panda eyes, but he still nodded excitedly and said, "It's over. Are you done?"

"What do you think?" Jin Shangqi did not answer the question of whether he had finished reading, but couldn't wait to ask Ye Yuxin about his feelings.

When Ye Yuxin heard this question, he quickly said: "Fuck, it's just...it's, eh, suddenly I don't know where to start."

Hearing Ye Yuxin's words, Jin Shangqi was unable to say anything he had been holding back for discussion.

After a long time, he finally said: "Now I finally know why Xu Chuan has the confidence to make science fiction movies.

Now I finally understand why Teacher Ning can talk so long online.Holy shit, this is so awesome. You don’t even need to change the story, you can just shoot it as it is.

What the hell did he get in his head?Is it possible that there is really a Doraemon that buffs him?Why is this guy so good at writing songs and so good at writing books? ! "Listening to Jin Shangqi's words, Ye Yuxin was speechless for a moment.

As talented people, when facing a more talented player like Xu Chuan, in addition to a kind of sympathy between talents, they also feel a little powerless.

Thinking of this, Ye Yuxin suddenly said with emotion: "Fortunately, Xu Chuan is not in the same field as us, otherwise it would be really painful... No, tell me, does Xu Chuan already have ideas about the characters in his novels in his mind? Have you conceptualized those things?”

"Aren't you talking nonsense? People can write novels without concepts in their minds, but it's definitely not a specific concept, just a vague feeling." Jin Shangqi said.

Unfortunately, Jin Shangqi guessed wrong again. As Xu Chuan, who has watched the movie several times, the concepts in his mind are not vague.

He couldn't draw it, but he knew which direction to design it in.This actually allows the crew to avoid a lot of detours in the art department.

"How do you say it?" Ye Yuxin suddenly said something without any clue when he heard this.

"What do you mean?" Jin Shangqi said knowingly.

"Last time I went to the set, I saw that their art department was not very interesting."

Jin Shangqi became a little silent when he heard this. After a while, he said: "Director Qi's investment is more than [-] million. Moreover, we are familiar with the style, so we can do it easily."

"But the remuneration of several leading actors on Director Qi's side accounted for more than 2 million." Ye Yu said immediately.

As top talents in the industry, there are definitely many big projects looking for them.

They are not sure whether they can easily make money from other projects, but the money from "Wandering Blue Star" is definitely not easy.

But the attraction of this project was too strong for the two of them at the moment.

Thinking of this, Jin Shangqi gritted his teeth and said: "Brother, we have no shortage of money for a long time. As long as the brothers below can keep their salary, there is nothing they can't do. I am forty, and I won't be able to fight as I get older."

"Call, call Xu Chuan now and ask him if he still needs anyone. Don't let us plan here for a long time and they don't want us." Ye Yuxin urged without any hesitation.

As soon as these words came out, Jin Shangqi, who was still considering whether to go, instantly began to consider whether he could go.

For a moment, he actually started to worry about gains and losses.

After hesitating for several minutes, Jin Shangqi finally dialed Xu Chuan's number.

The phone rang a few times before being answered, and Xu Chuan Hexi's voice came from the receiver: "Teacher Jin?"

"Um, um, hello, Mr. Xu." Jin Shangqi said a little unsure of how to speak.

"Hello, hello, you said it was a coincidence. I was thinking about calling you, but I didn't expect you to call me first." Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"Really? Are you planning to call me?" Jin Shangqi asked tentatively after hearing this.

"It's like this. The art department of our crew still lacks some strong creatives. You and Teacher Ye are recognized as top practitioners in our country.

So, I thought that you must know a lot of outstanding talents there, and I thought that you could help me introduce them. "Xu Chuan's words were tactful, and he was very considerate.

As soon as he said this, Jin Shangqi said without much hesitation: "I may not be able to introduce you for the time being. What do you think of me and Ye Yuxin?"

"Really? That would be great. It would be best if you and Teacher Ye could join in person." Xu Chuan replied with a surprised and surprised voice.

That’s enough for the day.

Soon, the two exchanged some pleasantries and hung up the phone without even discussing the price.

After hanging up the phone, Jin Shangqi stood up from his chair, dialed Ye Yuxin's number and informed him of the news, and ran to the bathroom to wash up.

After reading for two days, he didn't even take a shower or eat much.

After he was done, he ran out again. When his wife saw this, she immediately shouted: "Lao Jin, why are you going?"

"Go to the studio." Jin Shangqi didn't explain too much, but put on her shoes and opened the door to leave.

About half an hour later, Jin Shangqi, who looked excited, ran to his studio, stood in the middle of the employee office area and shouted: "Everyone, put aside what you are doing."

When everyone in the studio heard this, they immediately looked at their boss curiously.

"I have good news to tell you. Right now, we are going to participate in a project, a very fun project, more fun than any project we have ever taken on."

As soon as these words came out, someone immediately asked: "Boss, what project is this?"

""The Wandering Blue Star" by Xu Chuan."

As soon as these words came out, no one in the studio had much reaction. This scene made Jin Shangqi a little confused.

No, why aren't you all excited at all?
Don’t you know how exciting the story of “Wandering Blue Star” is?
Wait, they really don't seem to know.

I am just showing this dance to the blind man.

Thinking of this, Jin Shangqi was about to say something when he heard a weak voice coming from the corner of the studio: "Boss, Teacher Mu's team seems to have just joined the crew of "The Wandering Blue Star"."

"Teacher Mu, Mu Zeyan?" Jin Shangqi asked in confusion upon hearing this.He said Mu Zeyan was one of the strongest prop production teams in the country and had collaborated with Jin Shangqi many times.

"Right? Teacher Mu Zeyan, someone from their company told me that Teacher Mu has been having fun in the studio for a long time, as if he had won the lottery jackpot." The man replied.

As soon as these words came out, Jin Shangqi couldn't help being stunned, and an idea suddenly came to his mind, that is, Mu Zeyan also met Xu Chuan and got the book sent by Xu Chuan.

The fact was just as Jin Shangqi guessed.

Xu Chuan has received quite a few people these past two days.

The story of Ning Kaijun praising Xu Chuan for the first time made too many people curious.

In addition, Xu Chuan's speech about Jingying did impress some people who still had idealism.

In addition to behind the scenes, there are also some well-known actors in front of the stage. They also want to read this book that Ning Kaijun praised so much.

Ever since, I also contacted Xu Chuan, hoping to take it back to have a look.

In two days, Xu Chuan gave "Three Body" and "Wandering Blue Star" to more than 100 people in total.

Except behind the scenes like Jin Shangqi and actors like Ning Kaijun.There are also leaders of some relevant units, as well as heads of some large film and television-related companies.

There are, of course, some well-known writers.Even the brand bosses who had a good relationship with Xu Chuan also called him to ask for books.

But to be honest, some of them are definitely not here for the books.Instead, he found a reasonable reason to have a favor with Xu Chuan.

This is how a network of human relations was established. They came to Xu Chuan to "beg" for an autograph.Xu Chuan "begged" them to keep "Wandering Blue Star" a secret and help promote his upcoming "Three Body".

From time to time, everyone reflects their own "special value".

Another three days passed.

At this time, those who got the book have basically finished reading what they wanted to read.

It was at this time that Xu Chuan's phone started to get busy again.

Several actors called and asked the same questions.That is, are there any roles that can be played, even guest appearances, and they don’t need to be paid.

For a moment, Xu Chuan, who answered the phone, felt that he might not be filming "The Wandering Blue Star" but "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".

However, there are not too many guest roles in "Wandering Blue Star", and the main roles have already been decided.

Although Xu Chuan can increase the number, after all, having more celebrities is a selling point.

But he hopes that when people watch his movie, they should still focus on the story, not on which famous actor appears in a few minutes or seconds.

Therefore, Xu Chuan naturally declined all their kindnesses.

After this refusal, the conversation among these people immediately turned to asking when "The Three-Body Problem" would be filmed.

Not one person said that if filming starts, please be sure to notify him to come and audition.It can be seen that I was really attracted by this story.

It was also at this time that some actors began to spontaneously follow Ning Kaijun's example and wrote lengthy articles about their thoughts on these two books on their official social media accounts.

There are endless praises in it.

There are long reviews, and photos of Xuchuan’s autographed book are naturally indispensable.

Other people behind the scenes, actors, bosses and other experts in other fields who received the book also expressed their opinions more or less online within two days.

This is when the public was surprised to find out.

What the fuck?

Why are there so many people talking about "The Three-Body Problem" and "The Wandering Blue Star" on the Internet?

And everyone is praising it, is this book really so well written?
Don't be embarrassed, right?
Under the influence of these people, how could netizens who were originally curious about these two books hold back?

A bunch of people ran to Xu Chuan's Weibo and asked him, are you still going to sell this book?

In fact, not only netizens are curious, but many colleagues are also curious.

Xu Chuan only gave away more than 100 sets of books, which is just a drop in the bucket compared to practitioners in the film and television industry.

At first, everyone didn't care that much, but now they look like this when they see the popularity.I really want to see how Xu Chuan's creative ability in science fiction stories is.

Under this circumstance, on March 3, Xu Chuan announced that "The Three-Body Problem" was officially put on the shelves of major online shopping malls and major offline bookstores.
