Chapter Seventy-Three: Picking Up the Play
Zhou Jin came back from finishing the work, nested in the apartment for several days, and brushed the king of comedy a few times before he could barely save his eyes.
"Hey!"
"What for?"
"If you don't go to work, can you?"
"If you don't go to work, you'll support me?"
"I'll raise you!"
"Raise yourself, fool......"
Someone once said that the most painful thing is to meet the person who wants to take care of your life the most at the poorest age.
Now Zhou Jin understands this feeling a little bit.
When he walked out of Hengdian, he thought he was an actor, and he could say like Yin Tianqiu, "Actually, I'm an actor." ”
But as soon as he turned his head, the company arranged a big bad movie.
The most terrible thing is that such treatment is still unavoidable for newcomers.
I don't know how many rookie actors don't have a chance to act in bad movies.
Zhou Jin can't be like Yin Tianqiu, who is full of enthusiasm for acting, but he can still do it if he remains dedicated.
For this reason, when Director Mao later contacted the high-level of the sugar man, he also praised Zhou Jin.
This also brought Zhou Jin into the sight of the sugar man's high-level executives, although his acting skills may not be very good, but his image is good, and he can be conscientious in the face of big bad movies, which is rare.
In this circle, if you are not afraid of your poor acting skills, you are afraid that your acting skills are poor and you don't know it, you have acted in a bunch of bad movies, you have no dedication, and you are still thinking about winning the Grand Slam, then there is no help.
"Do you think the role of Yi Dachuan can be won for?"
In the high-level meeting of the sugar man, President Cai Yirong tapped his fingers on the table and said thoughtfully.
"Mythology" is also a time-traveling drama, but it is completely different from "Picking Up a General to Be a Boyfriend".
Back in 2005, the idea was made into a movie, and in 2009 it was still a novelty.
So the emperor simply changed it into a TV series, and Brother Cheng Long personally supervised the production, and also selected Hu Ge as the first male lead, which is of great significance to Sugar Man.
Because Fairy Sword III has not yet been broadcast, the sugar man has not received the money back for the time being, and the investment money cannot be recovered, so they have no way to set up a new project.
Its artists are all empty, such as Liu Sisi, with such good conditions, you can't find a show.
Let her run the crew, after receiving a film about Heaven and Dragon Slayer, she was too lazy to do it, and she didn't know what to do in the imperial capital every day.
Fortunately, Lao Hu is competitive enough, and he took over a myth by himself, and he is still the first male lead, so Cai Yirong moved his mind, why don't you let her artists try the second male lead?
Li Jianguo is the production director of Sugar Man, and he has the most say in this aspect of the actor, and shook his head when he heard the words: "It's still too young, he is a little younger than Hu Ge, how can he play his brother?"
After thinking about it, he said: "The company's artists are still too tender except for Hu Ge now, so let's take on some small-cost productions." ”
Cai Yirong sighed, knowing that what he said was indeed the truth, "Then you can't let him be idle in the company, right?"
The sugar man already has a salted fish and can't have another one.
Li Jianguo said with a smile: "Then let him run the crew, newcomers from other companies run the crew, why can't we run?"
"Didn't Liu Jing introduce a drama before, what is it called Love Apartment, a small investment, a young director, the most suitable for newcomers. ”
Cai Yirong shook her head, "I read the script, it's just a few jokes, it's similar to her boyfriend's eunuch." ”
"You don't like it, but the eunuch's boyfriend is not the same, and someone plays it?"
The two fought, Cai Yirong finally didn't object, but she didn't support it, "Let them decide for themselves, if they can win the best, it doesn't matter if they can't take it." ”
Li Jianguo nodded, and then added, "Let Liu Sisi try it too." ”
Cai Yirong didn't answer, and continued the meeting: "The most important thing for us now is Xianjian San, this drama starts, we can recover the funds, how is the publicity over there?......
Li Jianguo was in charge of creation, and he didn't pay much attention to these things, and he didn't say much when he saw this, but sighed secretly.
After all, the sugar man has a small capital, and if a drama can't recover the funds, it can't set up a new project, but the company's management of artists is extremely loose.
Except when the company has a project, it is basically laissez-faire, whether it is an attack or a salted fish, it all depends on the actor himself.
After Zhou Jin salted the fish for a week, the bald brother finally couldn't stand it anymore and called Zhou Jin and Sun Yizhou to the sugar man's office.
Contrary to Zhou Jin, Sun Yizhou had a rather dissolute week, if it weren't for the bald brother saying that there was a drama appointment, he wouldn't have come back at all.
"How is it, brother, how is this week? Did Li Jingming look for you?"
Sun Yizhou wore a small pink suit and dangled in front of Zhou Jin.
"What is Li Jingming looking for me? ”
"No," Sun Yizhou was obviously surprised, "You two are dry firewood in the play, and there are no small sparks outside the play?"
"Or are you really a ......?" Sun Yizhou's gaze began to wander.
Zhou Jin knew what he was thinking, and said angrily: "Just kidding, I weigh two catties more than you in terms of weight, do you believe it or not? ”
"Uh......" Sun Yizhou was speechless for a moment.
"What are you two talking about?" the bald guy walked in, dressed in a small black suit, with a folder.
"It's nothing, you have a drama appointment with us?"
"Well," the bald brother sat down and said, "This period of time is the time when the major crews use actors, Zhou Jin, you have been in Hengdian, you should know that now is the time for Hengdian to enter the peak season." ”
Zhou Jin nodded, "Then are we going to run the crew too?"
The bald brother said: "I have already contacted the crew in advance, and according to your own characteristics, I have probably circled a few dramas at present, which we want to strive for." ”
"Let's talk about Sun Yizhou first, your image is more suitable for urban fashion dramas, so I picked these ones for you. As he spoke, he handed over an A4 piece of paper.
"Besides, Zhou Jin, you can act in ancient costumes and cities, and the drama is wider, and there are two main ones that are currently circled for you, one is mythology, and the other is a love apartment. ”
Zhou Jin nodded when he heard this, these two are quite popular TV series.
He has seen the myth in his previous life, and the ratings are almost the first of the year, and there are many outstanding characters, such as Yi Xiaochuan, Gao Yao, etc.
However, Zhou Jin didn't feel that he had a chance to win any weighty roles in this play.
Instead of playing soy sauce, it is better to choose one that is easy to shine, so it seems that the love apartment is more suitable.
Although some people in later generations have complained that the love apartment is a Chinese version of American dramas, it can't stand the fire of others.
It's like someone always scolds corrupt officials, but when you become an official, you really can't guarantee that you won't be greedy.
Now there is a chance for fire, in front of Zhou Jin's eyes, as long as he gives up the little persistence in his heart, he may be able to win a future.
"I suggest that you focus on the role of Lu Zhanbo, you can try it if you are mythical, but don't get your hopes up. ”
The bald brother gave a very pertinent suggestion, and Zhou Jin nodded in acceptance.
Lu Zhanbo is about the same age as him, and there is nothing that needs acting skills in this role, so he has the best chance of winning it.
"Hey, I think this Lu Ziqiao is very suitable for me. Sun Yizhou, who was snubbed on the side, shouted.
Zhou Jin said with a smile: "It's not suitable, it's just tailor-made for you, and you will act in your true colors." ”
