Chapter 333: Invisible Shackles
A few days later, in a villa in a residential area of the magic capital, the lights were bright.
"Old Hu ......"
The chubby man with glasses sitting on the sofa was Sun Yuyang, Li Mo's homeroom teacher when he was studying at the Modu Drama Academy, and he was wearing a set of home clothes at this time, looking at Hu Ge on the opposite side of the coffee table with a rather helpless look, and persuaded, "It's time for you to make a choice......
Hu Ge was holding a cup of tea in his right hand at this time, staring at the mouth of the cup with his eyes, as if he wanted to understand something from the cup that had long been out of heat.
Looking at Hu Ge's appearance, Sun Yuyang sighed secretly, and couldn't tell what it felt like for a while.
The opposite one, who graduated two years later than him, is considered his younger brother, and the two of them also formed a bit of affection when they were in the Modu Drama Academy.
If it weren't for Li Mo's kid calling to beg him to come forward, Sun Yuyang really didn't want to get involved in this.
That's right, in Sun Yuyang's opinion, the matter between Li Mo and Hu Ge can be regarded as the one he doesn't want to mix with the most.
Because of the severity, money is involved.
But anything related to money, Sun Yuyang doesn't want to mix it.
But Li Mo's kid is too good at getting things done.
Not only did the brothers and sisters of the Modu Drama Academy come forward with their company's vote, but even the head of the department, Lao Han, was moved by him......
It is said that Li Mo, in the name of alumni, donated a large number of teaching aids to the Department of Performance, and promised that when students of the Department of Performance need internship in the future, Molong Media will give priority......
Under the dual offensive of affection and money, Han Sheng, the head of the department, decisively came forward to persuade Hu Ge's pot............ Thrown to Sun Yuyang.
Then, Sun Yuyang appeared at Hu Ge's house.
……
But to be honest, Sun Yuyang did feel a little upset for his junior.
The reason is very simple: even he can see that Tangren's company has really reached the level of 'sunset and twilight'.
As a veteran "star-making dream factory", Tang Ren Film and Television once became a popular artist, but with Yuan Hong, Lin Gengxin and other popular actors, it seems to have become the fate of Tang Ren Film and Television to terminate the contract as soon as its artists are popular.
Others may only see these people's unceremonious abandonment of their old club, but as a bystander, even Sun Yuyang can see one thing: Tang Ren's business strategy is problematic.
With the popularity of "Step by Step Horror", according to Hu Ge, the work "Step by Step", which rubs the IP and the popularity of the actors, is already in preparation for Tang Ren's company.
There is no doubt that the leading actors of this drama must be Liu Shi and Wu Qilong......
That's fine, after all, it is a work that has been successfully rated and has a certain audience base.
But Hu Ge starred in "Xuanyuan Sword Traces", the ratings can only be said to be average, but Tang Ren still prepared a large wave of follow-up works such as "Fairy Sword Cloud Fan" and "Xuanyuan Sword Six......
This clearly shows the rhythm of squeezing the company's two trump cards, Hu Ge and Liu Shi, dry......
If you just accept the work arranged by the company, although the intensity is a little higher, it is at least within the scope of the brokerage contract, but for the invitations sent to Hu Ge by other companies, Tang Ren's approach is quite inauthentic.
Take the last audition invitation for the movie "Beijing Meets Seattle", according to the news Sun Yuyang got from Li Mo, Tang Ren's company's price was twice as high as Chen Kun's film in the same period, and it also asked for a box office share.
Not to mention that Li Mo is impossible to accept, but anyone who knows a little bit in the circle will definitely not think that Hu Ge's appeal and influence in movies can be compared with Chen Kun.
I thought that with the quality of the script of "Langya Bang", coupled with the behind-the-scenes team led by Kong Sheng and Director Li Xue, Molong Media's invitation this time should not encounter the situation last time, right?
Who knows, Tang Ren's reply is still as rich as ever, Tang Ren's company's 'style'.
1.2 million for a single episode!
If the final number of episodes is 50 episodes, according to this standard, Hu Ge's salary alone will account for 60 million......
The investment in the whole drama of "Langya Bang" is only 110 million ......
The actor takes 55% of the investment alone, how can this be played?
It is said that when Li Mo heard Tang Ren's reply, he directly burst into a foul mouth: "Tang Ren is crazy about money up and down, right?!"
If it weren't for the fact that the two directors, Li Xue and Kong Sheng, both thought that Hu Ge was the first choice to play Mei Changsu;
If it weren't for the need to make a good impression on Hou Hongliang's team for the first cooperation;
If "Langya Bang" is not the first play of the new company Noon Sunshine;
Li Mo wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to ask Sun Yuyang to come forward and let him try to do Hu Ge's work.
Even so, while asking Sun Yuyang, Li Mo also revealed his bottom limit to him - Hu Ge's salary can be slightly higher than his true worth, but if Tang Ren still insists on the sky-high salary and does not relax, then it is absolutely impossible for Noon Sunshine to do this wrong.
"Lao Hu, that kid Li Mo just called me before I came," Sun Yuyang pushed his glasses and said hesitantly: "Although the two directors are indeed optimistic about you, it is impossible for the crew to wait for you indefinitely." ”
When Sun Yuyang came in today, he knew that Hu Ge now has two scripts in his hands, one is "Langya Bang", and the other is "Whirlwind Eleven" invested by Tang Ren's company......
If it were a normal situation, Hugo would naturally be inclined to choose "Whirlwind Eleven" with a modern setting.
He was really acting in costume dramas and was about to vomit......
But the problem is that "Langya Bang" is not a costume idol drama in the general sense.
Although the character of Mei Changsu lingers in the sick body, he has a beautiful face and an elegant temperament, and he is superb, and he seems to be chasing fame and fortune. What is hidden behind it is perseverance and selflessness in the world......
In other words, this is a completely different character from the handsome guys in costume that Hugo has portrayed in the past.
Compared with Mei Changsu, the sword idiot and Yuwen Tuo that Hu Ge just portrayed in "Xuanyuan Sword and Sky" are like children who play family wine......
"Lao Hu, I know, you have always wanted to move to the big screen, but you have always been trapped in the shackles on your body, you listen to me," Sun Yuyang raised his hand to stop Hu Ge's rebuttal, "After your car accident, Mr. Cai did not give up on you, and even did not hesitate to stop the entire Tangren company to wait for you to recover, this kindness is indeed profound, but have you ever thought that this kindness is not a reason for you to sacrifice your acting career." ”
Chen Kun won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, Deng Chao won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Supporting Actor, and even Wang Xiaoming made a breakthrough in acting skills in Li Mo's "Chinese Partner", it is said that he is still a popular candidate for this year's Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, Wang Kai of Li Mo's company, debuted much later than you, everyone has a movie role that can be handled, look at you again?"
"How long are you going to be obsessed?"
“……”
The room was so quiet that it seemed to be empty, after Sun Yuyang finished saying what he just said, his whole strength seemed to be drained, and after taking a deep breath, he sat quietly on the side and waited for Hu Ge's answer.
After a few more minutes, seeing that Hu Ge still looked like he was out of the world, a look of disappointment flashed in Sun Yuyang's eyes, he got up and said lightly: "Xiaomo, they will only wait until twelve o'clock at noon tomorrow, Lao Hu, this is really an opportunity, you ......"
Speaking of this, Sun Yuyang waved his hand weakly, turned around and walked towards the gate, "I went on this trip tonight not only because of Xiaomo's request, but also because I think you shouldn't go on like this." Forget it, you can do it yourself. ”
Before Sun Yuyang's hand touched the doorknob, Hu Ge's voice came from behind, "Old Sun, you scolded me so much, now you just want to leave, but when you leave, you should leave Senior Brother Li's phone number to me......"
