227. She Yueling's show-off
Xu Shi called Xu Mingjie to the office and asked, "How is it? Have you thought about the direction of development during this time?"
Some time ago, Xu Shi had already asked Xu Mingjie this question.
Now that Xu Mingjie has reached the time to determine the route, he can no longer develop as savagely as before, try everything, and cannot leave a deep impression in the hearts of the audience.
At least in the early stage, the best development route is to have a clear goal.
is like Xu Shi, his goal is a martial arts star, and people have an idea of him as soon as they mention him, even if they haven't seen his movies, as long as they have heard of him, then this label is on him.
On the other hand, when it comes to martial arts stars, then Xu Shi will come to mind.
Although it is said that the most important impression of many of Xu Shi's movies is not action scenes, there is no doubt that because of his madness when filming action scenes, he also established his impression in the minds of the audience, he is an action star.
It only takes a little investigation to know that as long as there is a martial arts drama or action movie with Xu Shi's participation, most people are willing to watch it.
Because in their minds, Xu Shi has become synonymous with playing, and with Xu Shi's joining, everyone will not be disappointed in this regard.
Xu Mingjie needs to do the same now, giving people a preconceived impression, which is very good for his development.
Even if he wants to transform in the future, it will be thirty or forty years old, and he will talk about the things at that time.
Xu Mingjie heard Xu Shi's question and said, "Uncle, I've thought about it, I'm going to take the route of comedians." ”
He tasted the sweetness of "Love Apartment", it can be said that because of "Love Apartment", his popularity has risen a lot all of a sudden, and he has also been liked by most people.
Comparatively speaking, comedians have an absolute advantage in the number of fans compared to other stars.
Especially now that the pressure of work and life is getting more and more stressful, the popularity of comedians is also increasing.
Xu Shi nodded and said, "This is similar to what I thought, but then you still need to stay on the corn side, and there are not many resources that the Jingwu Sect can give."
Now the development of comedians not only needs to be in film and television, but also in variety shows.
Jingwumen doesn't have a lot of resources in variety shows, far less than corn, so you are still staying in corn now. ”
Xu Mingjie asked: "How do you sign the contract? I don't really want to sign a long-term contract with them. ”
In fact, he had long wanted to jump ship and enter the Jingwu Gate, but Xu Shi never let him, and Xu Xiaoxiao also stopped him.
But he also knew that these were all for his good.
"You don't have to worry about the contract, I communicate with corn in this regard, it doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as the liquidated damages are controlled a little. Xu Shi didn't care about this.
Regardless of the length of the contract, as long as the liquidated damages are within the range he can afford, these are not a problem.
"Oh, by the way, I have already written the outline of the script of "Love Apartment 2", do you have any requirements? Forget it, you will go to Wang Feiyun and them when you go back, and tell me some of your thoughts and requirements, and I will see if I can add and delete some things when the time comes. Xu Shi said.
"I know, by the way, what about Xiaoxiao's side? Is she going to break away from the corn and enter the Jingwu Sect?" Xu Mingjie said with some envy.
He didn't have much thought about the script of "Love Apartment 2", because no matter what, these are his own anyway, and he doesn't need to worry about anything.
Xu Shi shook his head with a smile and said: "For the time being, she will not enter the Jingwu Sect, or she is different from you, she has her own plan, you don't have to worry about this, just take care of yourself." ”
Seeing that the uncle obviously had two attitudes, Xu Mingjie was very dissatisfied and muttered: "I am the elder brother, why do you keep treating me as a child." ”
"Okay, okay, you're not a child, you're an adult. ”
Hearing such perfunctory words from the uncle, Xu Mingjie rolled his eyes angrily, didn't want to talk to him anymore, and left directly.
However, when I was leaving, I heard my uncle shouting: "Call She Yueling over, I have something to say to her." ”
Although Xu Mingjie was not very happy, he still obediently went to call She Yueling over.
"Senior Brother Xu, are you looking for me?" She Yueling asked as she walked in the door.
Xu Shi nodded and said: "You sit first, you don't need to be restrained, I came to you this time to discuss with you about your future development route." ”
"I listen to Senior Brother Xu. She Yueling said very trustingly.
She has a lot of trust in Xu Shi, you must know who in the whole class doesn't envy her now?
Even those two child stars who debuted are now some famous, but compared with her, they are still a lot worse.
Maybe these two people are about the same as her in terms of popularity, but in terms of works and subsequent development, the two sides are not at the same level.
Xu Shi said with a smile: "It's not a matter of trust or distrust, but you want to find a direction you like."
If I find a random one and you don't like it very much, it will be a waste of your development and the company's resources. ”
"Okay, Senior Brother Xu, you say, I'll listen. When She Yueling heard Xu Shi say this, she finally sat up straight.
This is also the difference between Jingwumen and other film and television companies, if it is in other film and television companies, things like this are handled by the company, and there is no need to ask for the consent of the artist at all.
Even if you want to discuss, you have to discuss it with the artist's agent, and the artist can only obey the command.
But what Xu Shi has always pursued is a win-win situation, not a dictatorship, especially what he needs is a good reputation, which cannot be broken, no matter what aspect it is.
Because these reputations are related to his future martial arts school plans, this is what Xu Shi cares about the most.
Xu Shi said: "The company has studied it here, and now the most suitable development route for you is action star, and you have also left a preliminary impression on the audience in this regard, if you develop in this area, you already have a foundation."
Of course, you also need to think about all this yourself, and any other intentions can also be discussed. ”
"I'm okay with that, the action stars are good, and I like that route. She Yueling said seriously.
Xu Shi reminded: "You also know that our Jingwumen is different from other companies, at least it is different in this regard, when filming action scenes, there are often some dangerous scenes, in this regard, as long as it can be done by personal ability, basically no stand-ins will be used, which you also need to think about." ”
"Senior Brother Xu, don't worry, of course I know it. She Yueling didn't mean to waver at all.
"Okay, you go and discuss with Liu Yan, and then listen to her opinion, if you are sure, the resources that the company will give you in the future will be tilted in this direction. Xu Shi said.
"Okay. ”
After chatting about the topic, Xu Shi began to care about her life, after all, this is also his little sister, and what should be concerned still needs to be cared about.
"How is it, have you had any difficulties in your life lately?" asked Xu Shi.
"No, everything was fine, the dormitory provided by the company was also very good, there was no difficulty. She Yueling shook her head and said.
.............
When She Yueling returned home, she received a call from her roommate Chang Yue, saying that she was coming to celebrate her.
After a while, Chang Yue and the other two roommates also arrived, which was also a rare time for them to get together.
Since the last time they passed "Fengyun", all three of them have signed contracts with brokerage companies, and now they go back to school less often.
As for She Yueling, needless to say, she directly played the leading role, so naturally she didn't have time to go back.
In particular, Chang Yue also took the express train of "Love Apartment", and the development speed was also very rapid.
"Dangdang, Xiao Lingling, look what I brought you. Chang Yue was carrying a large bag of snacks in her hand.
"I brought these to you because I was reluctant to eat them. "Chang Yue invites merit.
"Cut, you're the agent who won't let you eat, and you can't afford to eat. Tao Mengyu ruthlessly exposed her lies.
"Xiaoyu, you look for a fight. Chang Yue suddenly 'became angry'.
"Haha, don't scratch my squeaky nest, I was wrong, hahaha. Tao Mengyu immediately said to him.
She Yueling and Zhang Yuehan on the side laughed and watched them play, and they hadn't had such a frolicking for a long time.
"How is it, Lingling, are you nervous?" Zhang Yuehan asked with a smile.
She Yueling's face suddenly collapsed and said: "Of course I'm nervous, you don't know, I haven't been able to sleep well these days, and I'm about to go to publicity, and now I can't get up or down in my heart." ”
"What do you have to be nervous about, with the blessing of the first "One Man's Martial Arts", no matter how good it is, the box office of your "Witch" will not be bad. Chang Yue also stopped fighting with Tao Mengyu and spoke.
"It's because of this that I'm nervous, if "The Witch" doesn't do well at the box office, then how can I face Senior Brother Xu, you must know that this "Witch" investment is much more than "One Man's Martial Arts", and more than "Medicine God", I can't eat now. She Yueling said pitifully.
"You're showing off Chi Guoguo, we can't play the leading role if we want to, no, I can't stand it, it's too exciting. Chang Yue said exaggeratedly.
But her envy is real, this is a big-investment movie, or the protagonist, how can she not be envious.
"Yes, Lingling, compared to you, I'm just miserable. Tao Mengyu also said with a depressed face.
"Don't talk about it, don't talk about it, we must have a good meal today. She Yueling saw her roommate's actions, and seemed to understand that she was showing off, so she hurriedly said.
Before they came, She Yueling was already ready to eat, and she wouldn't make anything else, but the hot pot would still work.
"By the way, Lingling, why didn't I see your life assistant? Not to mention that you have already played the leading role, your company hasn't arranged it for you yet, even Chang Yue already has a life assistant, she can let her do anything, but I envy me." Tao Mengyu said.
When Chang Yue heard her words, she unconsciously showed a smug look on her face, she is really something worth showing off, after all, life assistant, this represents status.
She Yueling didn't feel it, and said casually: "It's arranged, but they don't care about our private life, so we can't eat and let them help."
Although they are life assistants, the company stipulates that they only help take care of life things during work, and they usually don't need their help. ”
"Huh? is there still such a situation?" Hearing She Yueling say this, the three of them were stunned for a moment.
She Yueling knew what they were thinking, and said with a smile: "You don't want to think about it, even the big boss of our company doesn't have a life assistant, everything is done by ourselves, how can we be so extravagant."
And it's also good to do so, at least no one can interfere in my private life, so I don't have to worry about my private life being exposed. ”
"Well, that's true when you say that. ”
Chang Yue's heart didn't know why, and suddenly he was a little envious, and the original trace of pride disappeared.
At first, she did enjoy being a life assistant, but as time went on, she got a little bored.
Because she can't do a lot of things by herself, and most of the time, she doesn't have a little personal space, which makes her feel very uncomfortable.
Look at She Yueling like this, although it is a little troublesome to compare prices, at least she will not be uncomfortable.
The other two don't have a life assistant yet, so they don't have much experience with it, but they still notice a difference.
"Wow, Lingling, what are you preparing? Your agent allows you to eat like this?" Zhang Yuehan saw the food prepared by She Yueling, and immediately shouted.
She Yueling prepared some big fish and meat, anyway, how delicious it is, anyway, there is no shortage of money now.
As for what calories and stuff like that, it wasn't something she thought about at all.
"Haha, envy, our company doesn't care about the artist's private life at all, as long as you don't recruit black for the company. Of course, She Yueling knew about their situation, and she suddenly became proud.
Compared to other things, this is what she wants to show off the most.
She knows that in other companies, the company's artists, especially female artists, are all controlled by the company in terms of food.
You can't eat a few pieces of meat all year round, where it's like their company, basically as long as you want to eat it, no one will care about you.
Of course, if you die by yourself and destroy your body and there is no way to restore it, then the company will not continue to invest in you.
Things are all relative.
It's just that this point does not appear in Jingwumen for the time being, after all, Jingwumen is now some action actors, and they consume a lot of energy every day.
Even if there are some scenes that don't have much for the time being, they still have to exercise in the gym every day, and none of the above things have happened until now.
This is also the reason why the top management of Jingwumen has not raised any objections in this regard.
"I really envy you, unlike us, do you know what I eat now? Every day it's not a vegetable salad, it's a nutritious meal, have you ever eaten a nutritious meal? It's rice cereal, it's the same as snot, and now I want to vomit when I look at these things every day. Zhang Yuehan complained while drooling.
"Haha, then you have a good mouth today, by the way, I still have Senior Brother Xu's own medicinal wine here, this is a good thing, I asked for it from Xiaoxiao's side with great difficulty, don't you spoil it for me later." She Yueling said proudly.
"Well, I'll be presumptuous today, and no one cares anyway. Zhang Yuehan gritted her teeth and said.
The other two also said that they didn't care about it today, they must eat a good meal, even if they were fat, it would be a matter for later.
However, they really regret it now, regretting that they didn't choose to enter the Jingwu Sect at that time.
Especially Chang Yue, an agent of Jingwumen had already invited her at that time, but she saw that Jingwumen was bent on going far on the road of action actors, and she was not optimistic about their development, so she refused.
But now it seems that he is completely short-sighted.
It is true that Jingwumen is still developing according to her imagination, but in fact, Jingwumen's movies are not just for action actors.
is like this "God of Medicine", isn't Lu Yingli starring Lin Yuming, such a wonderful role is not much worse than the protagonist.
And looking at the days that She Yueling is living now, compared with She Yueling, they are simply becoming monks.
Immediately the four of them began to eat and drink, and the wine was not inferior to that of the men.
"Lingling, does your company have anything to say about the start of filming of "Love Apartment 2"?" Chang Yue asked pretending not to care.
This is the main purpose of her coming today, now all her fame is based on "Love Apartment", and now she naturally wants to strike while the iron is hot and rely on "Love Apartment" to accumulate fame.
She Yueling said casually: "I don't know, I don't care much about the company's affairs, why don't I go and inquire about it for you?"
She Yueling also knew what Chang Yue meant, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong, after all, it was normal for Chang Yue to care about this.
It's just that she didn't see a trace of worry flashing in Chang Yue's eyes, because of what happened last time, she seemed to have offended Xu Mingjie.
Now there is faint news that there is no role of Cheng Taijin in "Love Apartment 2", and I don't know if someone said it on purpose, anyway, she is very worried now.
This time, I asked She Yueling to inquire about the situation of "Love Apartment 2", just to ask her about her role from the side.
"Thank you Lingling, you really deserve to be my good sister, I salute you for this wine. Chang Yue immediately raised his head and drank a glass of wine.
I don't dare to say anything else now, but in terms of drinking, Chang Yue feels that she has improved too much.
"You drink less, I can't even drink these medicinal wines, eat more vegetables. She Yueling was a little reluctant.
"Cut, stingy. ”
"Hmph, if I'm stingy, I won't take it out, okay, then don't drink it. ”
"Don't don't, don't you have a good atmosphere, but don't say it, it's really good, much better than the famous wines I drink. ”
