Chapter Eighty-Three: Part-time?
The crew moved very fast, on the fifth day after returning from Yanjing, the company received the contract, and the filming is tentatively scheduled to start on March 15, and the filming time is expected to be about five months.
In terms of salary, 22,000 episodes is very good for newcomers, mainly because it takes a long time, and Brother Wang has the initiative to negotiate the results.
It's just that Zhou Xiao was taken aback when he learned about it, and when chatting with Director Lin Yan, the other party revealed that there are at least 30+ TV series, 20,000 episodes, so it can't be hundreds of thousands?
So he quietly asked Brother Wang, as a rookie actor, he doesn't give too much, even if there are only 30 episodes, and half of his appearance, there are more than 300,000.
Brother Wang laughed after hearing this, saying that he thought too much, and after some explanation, Zhou Xiao realized that the salary of the TV series was not calculated in this way.
Instead, the length of all the actors' scenes is converted into episodes, multiplied by the remuneration for each episode, minus taxes and company commissions, and the money he gets.
Therefore, it is roughly estimated that Zhou Xiao will have a maximum of hundreds of thousands in half a year.
As for the big stars, like Zhang Jiayi, the calculation methods are different, but they don't need to care about it.
More than 100,000 yuan in half a year, Zhou Xiao is quite satisfied, although not to mention that he is comparable to artists, even many office workers are inferior, but people have to be self-aware, he has just graduated.
Except for the classmates who have mines at home, most of them are in the internship period and receive meager subsidies, not to mention those who go to Hengdian alone.
Therefore, Zhou Xiao did not have the slightest dissatisfaction, only gratitude in his heart.
There are many other clauses in the contract, and he doesn't have to worry about it, Brother Wang is fully responsible, and only selects what he needs to know.
After a few days of careful consideration, Zhou Xiao also made up his mind.
Resign!
He is just a temporary worker who has not even signed a formal contract, and there is no such thing as leaving his job without pay, 3,000 per month, which occupies almost all of his time, and the input-output ratio is too low.
In addition, Director Lin said that the second male has a lot of scenes, and as a debut work, he must be well prepared.
After submitting the application, having a casual meal with colleagues, and everyone sent their blessings, Zhou Xiao officially bid farewell to the TV station at the end of November.
The students in the department soon learned the news, and their reactions were basically divided into two types, on the one hand, they felt that he was too impulsive.
First-line satellite TV, just go? That's equivalent to the existence of an iron rice bowl, the income is good, the benefits are good, and there is face when you go out, how stable it is!
On the other hand, he admires and thinks that young people should go out and break through, especially Zhou Xiao has this condition, he can't lose his fighting spirit, and he expects him to shine and become a big star.
Of course, such as Shaoyan and rats, who are particularly familiar, must be unconditionally supported, which will make him become famous quickly, and he can boast that he has celebrity friends in the future, which is as simple as eating and drinking.
I can't help some people to have pink eye and say something that is not very pleasant, but Zhou Xiao ignored it and gradually disappeared.
And Sister Xiaoya was entangled, Zhou Xiao was able to win the role smoothly, she was very happy, but finally the time to meet every day was over in less than two months, which made her depressed, but the smart sister did not show it, but generously sent her blessings, anyway, she also knew that Zhou Xiao was a piece of wood, so she could only take her time.
Parents are the least responsive, after going to college, their son didn't worry much about them, and they didn't know much about the entertainment industry, since they had ideas, they did it, as long as they remembered to take care of themselves, eat on time, and go to bed early.
After leaving the TV station, the dormitory naturally couldn't continue to live, but fortunately, I didn't stay too long, there weren't too many things, I packed up, called a moving company, and it was done in the morning.
Moved to the cauldron, which was the house his father bought for investment, a three-bedroom of one hundred and fifteen, and more than enough for two bachelors to live.
The cauldron also wanted to say that he would give him the master bedroom, but Zhou Xiao refused and chose a sunny room, the only regret was that it was a pity to buy a new refrigerator.
There is a large Xiaoice box here, and I naturally can't use it, so I can only repack it and put it in an empty room.
Living with the cauldron, I got back some of the feeling of being in the school dormitory, but eating became a problem, and the two of them were limited to cooking instant noodles, and there was no cafeteria, so they could only order takeout.
It's not that I didn't try to do it, but in the end it was agreed that it was a waste of ingredients, and occasionally Xiaoya would come to the door to tie an apron, even if it was the New Year.
Brother Wang made a schedule for Zhou Xiao to strictly implement during this time, he must go to the gym for at least two hours a day, rest once a week, study scripts, take music theory acting classes, and watch various award-winning dramas...
Although he is unemployed, he has a very fulfilling life, there are endless things to do, and sometimes he is too tired, Zhou Xiao will also think that if he can stay at home for a month and do nothing, he should be very happy.
Gym...
He still likes it, every day at three o'clock in the afternoon on time with a big water glass, running, iron, if there is no aunt who comes forward to talk, it is estimated that he will like it more.
By the way, there are coaches who always want to sell him courses, to be honest, Zhou Xiao doesn't have big muscles, but his lines are no worse than them.
In addition, Zhou Xiao felt that he had probably ordered some strange skill points, and he went to the pet store before, and the boss there invited him to work.
After going there for a while, I was squatting one day, and a strange-looking man in his thirties came next to me.
Everyone wears sportswear, tights, etc. in the gym, he is good, suit, tie, shiny leather shoes, and took the initiative to talk after watching Zhou Xiao exercise for a while.
After chatting for a while, I figured out what he meant, and wanted Zhou Xiao to come to work part-time, the reason was very simple.
has appearance, figure, time, three youth, and is suitable for Aunt Wang to be a coach, and casually pointed to a few people, saying that they work four hours a day and have a monthly income of more than 20,000 yuan.
said that he was not moved, it was impossible, and he went back and talked to Brother Wang, but he was told a beating.
The reason is simple.
It's not a bad thing if you want to make money, many celebrities have also done all kinds of different jobs before they became famous, it's nothing, but the other party's boss understands the meaning very clearly, so he wants Zhou Xiao to hook up with those rich aunts and deceive... Persuade them to buy various training courses.
This is not the job that a superstar should do in the future, let's not talk about the impact on the future, let the crew know about it, and even terminate the contract.
There is a clause in the contract that makes it very clear that the actor cannot do anything that damages the image of the crew, otherwise Party A has the right to terminate the contract unconditionally and claim compensation.
Zhou Xiao was scared after hearing this, and quickly dispelled the idea.
