Perfect Superstar

"Uncle Ma!"

When Ma Rong actually came down the stairs, a middle-aged man who happened to pass by greeted him warmly: "Where are you going? Have you had dinner yet?"

Ma Rongzhen nodded and said: "There is a party tonight, we are going there now."

"It must be in a high-end hotel!"

The middle-aged man said in a rather exaggerated tone: "You are a big star now, you can't live here for a few days, right? You will definitely stay in a hotel every day in the future, grandma will enjoy it!"

Ma Rongzhen smiled lightly and didn't answer the other party's words.

The other party was his neighbor, and he didn't have much contact with him usually, and he just nodded at most when meeting, and Ma Rong really knew that this man secretly despised him—the former him.

Since Ma Rongzhen's "A Chinese Ghost Story" was released on Hong Kong Island and sold well at the box office, as the actor who played the important character Yan Chixia in the film, his fame and popularity have increased dramatically.

Some reporters interviewed him, some called him to ask him to make a movie, and some came to him wanting to be his manager...

Ma Rongzhen's rented house in Tianshuiwei suddenly became full of people, and the neighbors, whether they knew him or not, greeted him warmly with a smile on their faces.

In the past, there were many neighbors who knew Ma Rongzhen, but few had such a friendly and enthusiastic attitude.

Usually when people talk about him, they say that his wife has cheated on her career, and that she is extremely destitute and can only be laughed at.

Now that he has turned around, everything is different.

Human feelings are cold and warm, and the world is hot and cold, nothing more than that.

After experiencing prosperity, vanity, ups and downs, Ma Rongzhen has long been bearish, and he has not been carried away by it.

After a few polite words with the other party, he turned around and prepared to leave.

Tonight, Lu Chen Studio and Jiayang Films will hold a celebration party at the Shangri-La Hotel to celebrate the box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" breaking through 50 million. Ma Rongzhen will definitely attend.

At this moment, a black Mercedes-Benz stopped steadily beside him.

Ma Rong was really surprised.

Tin Shui Wai where he rented,

It is a civilian area in Xiangjiang. The urban construction and environment cannot be compared with the prosperous commercial area. There are privately built houses everywhere, and the narrow streets are full of sewage and garbage.

A luxury Mercedes-Benz worth millions appeared here, almost like winning the lottery.

The next moment, the window of the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz was lowered, and a fat head poked out.

"Brother Ma!"

Ma Rongzhen was stunned for a moment, took a closer look, and recognized the other party: "Boss Gao?"

Ma Rongzhen debuted for decades, and he had a good time back then. He knew a lot of people inside and outside the circle. Although he didn't have much contact with him after he hit the street, he didn't lose his memory.

This Gao Hongde Gao boss is the boss of Gaosheng Pictures, which has been renamed as the boss of Gaosheng Entertainment. He is a figure of considerable status in the film and television entertainment industry, with a smooth and shrewd personality.

Ma Rongzhen had previously filmed a movie produced by Gao Sheng Pictures, and the box office was not bad, so he formed a friendship with Gao Hongde, but later he wanted to ask Gao Hongde for help when he was down, but was rejected by the other party.

Seeing Gao Hongde again now, Ma Rong really couldn't help but recall his past, and was a little lost.

Gao Hongde opened the car door and walked down. With a smile on his face, he reached out and patted Ma Rongzhen's shoulder, and said in an old friend's tone: "We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, right? I didn't expect you to remember me."

Ma Rongzhen was awakened by Gao Hongde's slap, and said with a faint smile: "It's been ten years."

He was really emotional.

If it were a narrow-minded person who had experienced Ma Rongzhen's experience, he would definitely not have a good look at Gao Hongde, and might have to sneer a few words to vent his resentment for being rejected back then.

But Ma Rongzhen didn't have any prejudice against Gao Hongde. There were many people who rejected him at that time, and most of the reasons were on him, so he couldn't blame others.

Of course, Ma Rongzhen would not regard Gao Hongde as a friend, he was just curious about the other party's intentions.

"Boss Gao, what can you do for me?"

Gao Hongde said: "Are you going to Shangri-La to attend the celebration party at night? I just happened to drop you off, how about a few words by the way?"

Drop by? Ma Rong really had a sense of irony, but he didn't refuse: "Then trouble Boss Gao."

In fact, he had guessed a lot about Gao Hongde's intentions.

The two got into the car together, the Mercedes-Benz restarted, and slowly drove out of the narrow alley.

The middle-aged neighbor looked enviously at the luxury car going away, and opened his mouth to spit on the ground.

Ma Rongzhen, who was so miserable that he couldn't afford meat, turned over, who would have thought of it?

In the car, Gao Hongde looked out through the car window and said, "Brother Ma, you have been wronged all these years, and now you are finally keeping the clouds open to see the moon, why do you still live here?"

Ma Rongzhen smiled and said nothing.

Seeing that Ma Rong really didn't fall for it, Gao Hongde said bluntly: "Brother Ma, Lu Chen's studio doesn't give you a high salary, right? I have a movie that is about to start shooting, how about you help me? The salary is easy to talk about!"

As expected!

Ma Rong really didn't have any accidents, and Gao Hongde was not the first to ask him to film a movie. The popularity of "A Chinese Ghost Story" made him a complete turnaround for this old salty fish, and various invitations came one after another.

After thinking about it, Ma Rongzhen said sincerely: "Boss Gao, I can't answer you for the time being, why don't we make an appointment to discuss it, what do you think?"

This is where Ma Rong is really smooth and sophisticated. He doesn't care about the grievances of the past, and he doesn't know how to sell himself in a few words. It is most appropriate for the agent to discuss the remuneration and treatment.

A clever manager can guarantee the artist's interests to the greatest extent.

Although Ma Rongzhen does not have an agent now, with his current reputation, it is not difficult to hire a reliable one.

Another reason why Ma Rong really didn't want to agree rashly was because he didn't know if Lu Chen needed him yet. If Lu Chen had a new movie for him to shoot, he would be willing to do it even if he didn't get paid a penny!

It is precisely because I am used to seeing the warmth and coldness of the world that the world is hot and cold, so I understand that it is not easy to send charcoal in a timely manner.

Gao Hongde also didn't expect to be able to settle Ma Rongzhen with a few words, but since the latter didn't refuse on the spot, it meant that there was a possibility of cooperation, and it was nothing more than a matter of price.

Boss Gao is not afraid to spend money as long as it is worth the fare. He smiled and agreed, "No problem!"

The two chatted and laughed, talking about anecdotes in the circle, as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for many years.

The Mercedes-Benz drove out of the street and entered the avenue, and immediately merged into the rolling traffic.

The Xiangjiang River shrouded in night, the lights are blurred.
