647. Queen of Idol Dramas
Chen Qiaoen was carrying a suitcase and sitting in the reception room of Huayi Company, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, and his thoughts couldn't help but drift to one night a month ago.
She was recording a variety show that night, she was one of the regular hosts, and after the recording of the show that day, the male host who partnered with her did not directly greet and leave as usual, but stopped Chen Qiaoen, who was leaving.
"Jon, your current state is very wrong, I didn't want to say it, but it's not a problem for you once or twice, in the past month, nearly ten recordings, you are not in a state, and your distraction is light, and even the guest's name is mispronounced today, I will ask you, do you want to do a good job in this variety show?"
As soon as he entered the room, the male host, who was called 'Brother Cheng' in the industry, reprimanded Chen Qiaoen in a stern tone.
Chen Qiaoen was stunned by this sudden reprimand, and then lowered her head and did not answer, because she knew that her performance was indeed not good enough, and what the other party said was also her mistake.
But Chen Qiaoen's silence is a kind of 'rebellious' performance in the eyes of this Cheng brother, he has accumulated a belly of fire, and it completely broke out under Chen Qiaoen's negative attitude.
"Chen Qiaoen, everyone in the circle knows that you look down on variety shows, and you want to be an actress, but you don't look in the mirror, you have acted in a lot of dramas, you have broken the record of idol dramas on Treasure Island, but how long have you been popular?"
"Now you still can't look down on variety shows, I think you're inflated, if you really think you're amazing, then you leave this show for me, I don't want you a penny of liquidated damages, and now I'll leave the words here, you leave on the front foot, I can find a replacement within twenty-four hours, do you believe it or not?"
If you want to change to another girl, it is estimated that at this moment, a soft fit can make this Brother Cheng no longer care, after all, he is not a person who is not measured, but Chen Qiaoen is different from ordinary girls, this girl is born a little bit of a distance, especially Brother Cheng's words still have a little bit of trampling on her ideals, which makes the girl even if she has been reprimanded with red eyes, but she still stubbornly bows her head and does not say a word.
"Hmph, you won't need tomorrow's recording!" Dropping such a sentence, Brother Cheng slammed the door directly.
Half a minute later, Chen Qiaoen's agent walked into the room with a frightened face, and saw his own artist hiding in the corner wiping tears.
"Jon, what's the matter, what did you talk about with Brother Cheng, why did Brother Cheng leave so angrily?" After the agent entered the room, he looked at the crying artist and hurriedly asked.
Chen Qiaoen didn't answer, just wiped away his tears and asked the agent to send him home.
Along the way, the agent almost every short period of time had to ask, and the methods were exhausted, but Chen Qiaoen didn't say a word from beginning to end, and he didn't look soft and hard.
Half an hour later, the car arrived at the door of Chen Qiaoen's house, which was still a house rented by the company, and the rent and miscellaneous expenses on weekdays were also paid by the company, which was a reward for Chen Qiaoen's achievements.
"Jon, I hope you can think about it calmly, now the ratings of this food show are good, and your position is a very rare fixed host, I don't know how many people are looking forward to replacing you, so I suggest you think it out as soon as possible, ah and then go and apologize to Brother Chengcheng, don't make mistakes, understand?" sent Chen Qiaoen to the door, and the agent left after leaving such a word.
That night, Chen Qiaoen had insomnia, and a libra appeared in his mind, with ideals on one side and reality on the other, swaying back and forth, and she fell asleep in a daze until more than three o'clock in the morning, and she also had a nightmare, in which a demon took away her ideals, and she could only hold on to reality and cry all the time.
When he woke up in the morning, Chen Qiaoen found that his pillow towel was wet.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Qiaoen's head was empty for a long time, before he remembered that he was going to wash, entered the bathroom, and found that his two eyes were swollen like walnuts in the mirror, and he even startled himself at first sight.
But this trouble soon disappeared, and her economist called her and told her that she didn't have to record today, because someone had already replaced her.
"You mean Little Joe?" Chen Qiaoen confirmed over the phone.
"Well, I was also a little surprised when the program team just called in the morning, but the program team just said that it would replace one episode, this show is still yours, I guess it's just that Brother Cheng wants to teach you a lesson, so don't worry, when I talk to Brother Cheng, you can apologize again." β
After comforting Chen Qiaoen for a few words, the agent hurriedly said goodbye: "Okay, I won't talk to you first, I will take Xiao Qiao to the program team to talk about the manuscript and process, bye." β
As he spoke, the agent hurriedly hung up Chen Qiaoen's phone.
Listening to the busy sound from the mobile phone, Chen Qiaoen was distracted again, she really didn't expect that Brother Cheng would do what he said, and she didn't expect that it would be her teammates who would replace her.
But for some reason, Chen Qiaoen's originally lost heart gave birth to an idea that she shouldn't have, she thought that maybe it would be better to let Xiao Qiao do the show instead of herself, or even replace herself completely.
She didn't even care so much about the possibility of losing a show, because another thought suddenly grew from her heart, and this girl, for this bold idea, only took half a day to make a decision.
She wants to terminate the contract with the company, and she wants to go to the mainland to develop!
She didn't know what she was crazy about at that time, and she had so much courage to want the company to terminate the contract, but Chen Qiaoen really did it, and she was very decisive, she came to the company that day, directly found the boss's office, and proposed to terminate the contract.
The boss was taken aback by the girl's impulsiveness, and after asking about the situation, the boss was also angry.
But no matter how the boss persuaded him, Chen Qiaoen gave two solutions with an iron heart, either to film her or to terminate the contract.
How could the boss agree to this kind of thing, if everyone is like Chen Qiaoen, there will be filming, will his company continue to do it?
So the boss was also angry, and directly said cruel words to Chen Qiaoen: "You can be disobedient, as long as you pay the liquidated damages, you can get out." β
Hearing this, Chen Qiaoen didn't say anything and silently left the boss's office.
In the next three days, Chen Qiaoen never came to the company again, and even when the boss of the company thought that Chen Qiaoen was going to be soft, Chen Qiao finally came to the company on the fourth day, but this time she came with liquidated damages.
No more, no less, exactly 10 million Taiwan dollars, Chen Qiaoen took out all the belongings he had saved from filming and variety shows over the years, and borrowed some from friends, and even his mother in her hometown gave her all her pension capital, so that she could make up enough money.
The boss really didn't expect Chen Qiaoen to do such a desperate job, but when things came to this point, when both parties refused to give in, it was obvious that there were no steps to go down, and the boss had to accept the liquidated damages and terminate the contract with Chen Qiaoen.
However, after signing the contract, the boss did not forget to leave a cruel sentence.
"Little girl, it's good to have ideals, but sometimes you have to do what you can, today you leave my company, believe it or not, you will have no chance to contact this industry in the future, I hope you will not regret today's decision." β
"I don't regret it. Chen Qiaoen replied.
"Heh, it's quite tough, but it's a pity that no matter how hard an artist is, I can make her a soft bone. Dropping this sentence, the boss slammed the door directly, and half an hour later, the news came out in the circle that the boss was going to ban Chen Qiaoen.
After everyone in the circle got the news, they all felt that Chen Qiaoen was going to be finished.
Even because of this, Chen Qiaoen has been on the headlines of Baodao's entertainment magazine for a long time, after all, although Chen Qiaoen's popularity has declined sharply, after all, she is also the heroine of the TV series with the record ratings of idol dramas, and there are also some fans who support it, and the most important thing is that the public just loves to watch this kind of unlucky thing for stars.
And several of Chen Qiaoen's friends also felt that things were very unfavorable to Chen Qiaoen after learning the news, but when they found Chen Qiaoen, they found that this girl, who had been sentenced to death by many people in the circle, seemed to be extremely calm, without panic or anger at all, and even smiled happily when she saw them.
And after everyone entered the house, they found that Chen Qiaoen was packing his luggage, looking like he was going to travel.
"That's right, it's okay to go out for a walk, I think Jon has been too depressed lately. A friend spoke.
"Whoever said I was going on a trip, I was going to the mainland. Chen Qiaoen's response surprised everyone.
"Are you going to the mainland to develop?" a good sister asked Chen Qiaoen seriously: "Why did you have this idea, you have thought about it, or is there an entertainment company in the mainland that wants to sign you, so you terminated the contract with the current company?"
Speaking of the last possibility, several friends were bright-eyed, if it was really as this friend expected, Chen Qiaoen had already hooked up with an entertainment company in the mainland, then she was really not afraid of her original boss's so-called blockade, after all, the boss's energy was just in the treasure island, and the mainland across the sea was beyond the reach of the boss.
Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Chen Qiaoen shook his head and said with a wry smile: "No mainland entertainment company has contacted me, let alone signed me." β
Alasβββ!
Several friends sighed with regret, and one of them asked: "Then why do you want to go to the mainland? If you really want to go over there, you have never been to the mainland, and after you get there, how do you find filming, and what should you do when you encounter danger? You have no friends and no relatives there." β
At the end, this friend even had tears in his sad eyes, feeling that his good friend's star journey was so bumpy.
"Actually, I don't have a little idea, do you remember that I was on a show with Nie Wei once?" Chen Qiaoen hurriedly hugged this friend, and explained while comforting.
The name "Nie Wei?" was as dazzling as the keyword of the game's quest prompt, and it immediately attracted the attention of all Chen Qiaoen's friends, and even the one who was about to cry instantly withdrew his tears and looked at Chen Qiaoen incredulously.
"After the show that day, he told me that I was more suitable to be an actor, and also said that if I want to be an actor, I have to go to the mainland to develop, where the stage is bigger, and said that if I have this idea at that time, I can go to him. At that time, Chen Qiaoen still remembered what Nie Wei said to himself clearly, and he didn't hide it at all, he told it all to his friends.
"Is it just a verbal promise? and how long has it been. After listening to Chen Qiaoen's words, some friends raised their worries.
"But at least it's a way out, it's better than waiting hopelessly on Treasure Island, with that vampire pressing Jon, Jon's acting career on Treasure Island is temporarily cut off. On weekdays, a very assertive friend in Chen Qiaoen's girlfriend group stood up and expressed his opinion.
These words were immediately agreed by most of the people present, and the rest of the small group did not object, but expressed concern that Chen Qiaoen would go to the mainland with only a verbal promise.
A week later, Chen Qiaoen obtained a work permit to go to the mainland, and then boarded a plane to the mainland in the presence of a group of friends and the media.
"Is this what you suddenly came to here?" Nie Wei said with a smile as he handed Chen Qiaoen a bottle of mineral water.
Chen Qiaoen took the water and nodded.
"Mr. Nie, does what you said at the beginning count? I want to be an actor. Chen Qiaoen looked at Nie Wei expectantly and asked directly.
Nie Wei thought that this girl's personality was really straight enough, she found herself just by virtue of a promise at the beginning, and as soon as she met, she told herself that she wanted to act, how could ordinary girls have to be tactful, it seemed completely unnecessary for her.
However, this straightforward personality is appreciated by Nie Wei.
"Since I have promised, I will definitely be able to fulfill it, but if you want me to film for you, then you must sign a contract with Huayi, and the contract period is six years, divided into five or five. Nie made a gesture of six with his hand and a gesture of five with the other, and told Chen Qiaoen on the other side his conditions, and his tone was very strong, giving Chen Qiaoen a non-negotiable feeling.
This contract is neither good nor bad, it's just ordinary, but when Chen Qiaoen is a little hesitant, she should not agree to the six-year contract.
Born in 79, she is twenty-eight years old this year, and the next six years can be said to be her best time, if she signs this contract, it will be equivalent to handing over the best development period in the future to Huayi, or to Nie Wei's hands.
As for the breach of contract?
The payment of the previous liquidated damages had already bankrupted her family, and she felt that she really had no ability to default again.
"The conditions are like this, you can think about it, choose to sign or not to sign. Seeing Chen Qiaoen's hesitation on the other side, Nie Wei once again said in a non-negotiable tone.
