299 The fate of the little people
Broadcasting Road, TVB Headquarters:
The elevator door opened, Chen Baiqiang yawned and entered the 9th floor, and in the middle of last night, he suddenly received a phone call saying that the senior management of TVB was going to meet him and had to rush over the next morning.
He is very inexplicable, but the other party is a wireless TV station, and there is no way to be strong.
Since his debut album "First Love" became popular overnight, Chen Baiqiang has continuously launched songs such as "No More Tears" and "I Met You Last Night", and in November last year, he sang a song at the Xiangjiang City Hall and held his first concert.
But there is no way to only sing, the ultimate goal of the entire entertainment industry is to enter the film field, TVB doesn't know how many TV stars work hard for this, after Lian Fa Ge filmed "Shanghai Tang", he also wanted to transform in a hurry, and then became poisoned, but he still did not give up his dream of making movies.
However, the road has to be taken step by step, under the operation of the company behind him, Chen Baiqiang tried to enter the TV field first, participated in a TV series that TVB was about to shoot, and was ready to play the leading role, intending to be familiar in front of the public.
It's just that now he suddenly received a call in the middle of the night and was called to the headquarters of TVB, which always made him a little confused.
"Are you Chen Baiqiang Chen Sheng?" a middle-aged man in his 40s walked over and asked politely!
Chen Baiqiang hurriedly said, "Yes, you are?"
The person who came smiled and said: "I am Huang Yitian, the program director of TVB, please inside!"
"Hello, Director Huang. Chen Baiqiang immediately woke up from his confusion, program director, this is already the peak of the pyramid in the entire wireless TV station, under normal circumstances, one sentence can decide the fate of an actor.
"You may be seated. After entering the director's office, Huang Yitian greeted politely and made a cup of tea himself.
"Thank you. Seeing that Huang Yitian personally put the tea in front of him, Chen Baiqiang said flatteredly.
Huang Yitian smiled and said, "You're welcome, this is a famous tea of Tieguanyin from the mainland, Chen Sheng can taste it." ”
Chen Baiqiang felt more and more inexplicable, this director was too polite to himself, not to mention himself, he was the owner of his record company, and he was not worthy of being so polite to the director of TVB, after all, in the entertainment market of Xiangjiang, TVB is a piece of heaven.
In order to be safe, Chen Baiqiang still asked: "Director Huang, I don't know if there are any changes in "Breakthrough" when I am called here today?"
"Breakthrough" is the first TV series in which Chen Baiqiang is ready to enter the TV field and sign up to participate, at the end of last year, he was set to play the leading role, and after a few months of preparation, the TV show is ready to start filming.
Huang Yitian said with a smile: "Chen Sheng, the company's senior management has decided to give up filming the TV series "Breakthrough" after a decision!"
"Why? The filming team is ready?" Chen Baiqiang didn't understand why the entire shooting plan was canceled, you must know that many preparations have been perfected, and now the cancellation loss is at least more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars, how could the TV station suddenly make such a decision.
Huang Yitian said: "I don't know why, this is a direct order from the board of directors, and no one can object." ”
"Board of Directors!" Chen Baiqiang was stunned, this term seemed to be far away from him, in his eyes, a small director of a wireless TV station was a figure who couldn't climb high.
Huang Yitian said: "This is a decision at the highest level, and it is indeed a pity for the actors of the entire crew, but you may not be able to Chen Sheng." ”
Chen Baiqiang was a little confused, and asked, "What does Director Huang mean?"
Huang Yitian pointed to the sky and said: "Chen Sheng, some people above are very optimistic about you, but he hopes that you will develop the music industry well, instead of entering the TV field." ”
"Above?" Chen Baiqiang was stunned and said, "Does anyone up there like my songs?"
Huang Yitian nodded and said, "Not bad." ”
Chen Baiqiang suddenly understood, it turned out that the entire TV series was canceled, just because of the hobby of one person above? His future was also shaped because of a person's hobby, and his dream of being an actor was shattered like this?
He was furious in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it in the slightest.
Huang Yitian said: "Chen Sheng, this is a great thing for you, our TV station is ready to focus on training you, you prepare, the company will send you to Tokyo University of the Arts, Japan, which is the best college in Asia, although you have musical talent, but after all, there is no professional system training, this is a rare good opportunity, all the costs are borne by the company." ”
"Going to Japan?" Chen Baiqiang was stunned, he couldn't have imagined that what happened today was more outrageous than the other.
Huang Yitian said with a smile: "If you have any ideas, just put them forward, I will definitely help you solve them." ”
Chen Baiqiang couldn't make a decision for a while, so he asked, "Director Huang, can I go back and discuss it with my family?"
Huang Yitian said: "This is nothing to discuss, Chen Sheng, I will say this matter directly, you can't refuse, unless you are ready to quit the entertainment industry, otherwise in this life, no TV station, film company, or record company will dare to use you." ”
Chen Baiqiang also fell silent, and was able to deny the filming of a TV series on TVB in one sentence, the energy of this kind of character is not something he can resist at all, not to mention that it is not a bad thing for him, so he asked: "Then when will you go to Japan?"
"I guess it's a week!" Huang Yitian smiled: "You don't have to worry, you are going to Tokyo University of the Arts as an auditor, but we will say hello to the local professors, and you can study like a normal student." ”
"Then how long am I going to stay in Japan?" asked Chen Baiqiang.
Huang Yitian said with a smile: "It is estimated that it will take two years, but you can come back every year during the winter and summer vacations of the school, and the air ticket money is reimbursed by the company, and you can also study and create in Japan in the past two years, and we will give priority to promoting the music you create."
Your salary in Xiangjiang will be paid in full according to your income last year, and at the same time, you can also get a living allowance from the local average salary in Japan, which is still under the premise that our company is responsible for accommodation.
Chen Sheng, this kind of treatment should be very good!"
"That's really good. Chen Baiqiang couldn't help but be stunned by the generosity of TVB, you know, Sir Shao, who is now in charge of TVB, hasn't he always been said to be very picky? How could it suddenly be so good.
"In addition, Chen Sheng, if you want to make a TV series in the future, it is not a problem, and when you come back from Japan, we can also arrange for you to be the protagonist of a TV series. Huang Yitian smiled and added.
"Director Huang, can you tell me which one has taken a fancy to my music?" asked Chen Baiqiang, who had already crossed the last line of defense, cautiously.
Huang Yitian smiled and said, "Chen Sheng, do your own thing, it's better if you don't know some things, you better go back and prepare the documents you need to go to Japan." ”
"Understood, I'll go back and prepare immediately. Although Chen Baiqiang was happy, he was also quite helpless, his fate was controlled by others in this way, although it was going in a good direction.
