Chapter 1109: Bad Money
Xu Manman accepted the congratulations and flattery of others in the company, and the smile on his face couldn't be stopped at all. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Yes, it is estimated that no one in the whole company expected that the artist Huang Bo she brought would actually win the Best Actor of the Taiwan Film Golden Horse Award in one fell swoop with a not very famous "Bullfighting" movie, which is the so-called actor.
Those big productions, those modern urban films with handsome men and beautiful women, and those special effects films, in the end, did not compete for the movies played by the man who was not good-looking, or even a little ugly.
It can be said that since she and Huang Bo returned to the company with the actor trophy, it was the time when she, the agent, raised her eyebrows.
"Sister Manman, do you have a celebration party in the evening?"
"Open, of course it's on!"
"Mr. Huang will come too, I want to ask him to sign it!"
"Definitely, everyone is a company, just tell me if you want to sign it. ”
Xu Manman accepted everyone's compliments, and showed no refusal to their enthusiasm.
Suddenly, Xu Manman's eyes froze, and his gaze stopped at the company's gate.
She turned back and confessed to the crowd, then picked up her skirt and hurried out.
Sure enough, she didn't look at the dazzle just now, and Huang Bo really planned to slip away.
In front of the car door, Xu Manman stopped Huang Bo and looked at him angrily.
"My Teacher Huang, there is still a celebration party in the evening, where are you going to run at noon?"
Huang Bo scratched his head, at this time, he was far from having as big a wrist as in later generations, and as for just getting the title of actor, he didn't adapt to this identity, and his behavior and habits were more or less a bit of the signs of before.
In terms of getting along with agents, it is more like an ordinary small star treating a big-name agent.
After all, before "Bullfight", he just relied on "Crazy Stone" to brush his face, and even another racing movie didn't make him popular.
even said that this time "Bullfighting" made him the best actor, but it was not a big hit at the box office.
"I made an appointment with someone to have lunch and chat, as for the company's side, Manman, you can help me deal with it!"
Xu Manman was a little angry, so many people in the company were waiting to congratulate Huang Bo, he left himself, but he left, what is this.
However, Xu Manman's eyes rolled, Huang Bo's value has become more and more great, and she still has to pay attention to the proportions of her speech.
After thinking about it, Xu Manman asked calmly, "Important friend?"
Huang Bo hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Lu Heng." ”
The corners of Xu Manman's eyes opened, and he instantly remembered the man who was even more famous than Huang Bo some time ago.
Thinking of his net worth, if Huang Bo has a good relationship with him, if there is anything that needs film investment in the future, maybe he can rely on the other party.
"Since it's that person, it's okay, you can go, I'll deal with it on the company's side. ”
Huang Bo's face was overjoyed.
"But you still have to come over in the evening, the company is going to give you a celebration party, and you, the protagonist, must be there. ”
Huang Bo nodded, responded to this without hesitation, and then got into the car himself.
Looking at the distant car shadow, Xu Manman stood on the side of the road, the corners of his mouth squirmed, but he didn't say anything, shook his head and returned to the company, continuing to accept the greetings of others.
.......
In the restaurant, Lu Heng listened to Huang Bo's words with a smile and chatted with him from time to time.
I have to say that Huang Bo is quite interesting, and his Mandarin with a Qingdao accent also makes the atmosphere of chatting extremely comfortable.
After chatting for a while, hearing that Huang Bo was going to entertain so many people at night, looking at his wry face, Lu Heng asked curiously:
"Didn't you reveal that you were going to go independent and open your own studio?"
Huang Bo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, there is this plan, after all, although I can enjoy a lot of resources in the brokerage company, there are too many constraints, and some returns are not big, but the company has the right to veto the script I want to shoot very much." I don't like this feeling. ”
"And if I start my own company, then I can enjoy the right to decide what scenes to shoot and what endorsements to take. ”
What Huang Bo said is actually the situation of most young actors and starlets, many times their work has to be decided by the brokerage company, and they basically have no right to speak.
It is precisely because of this that as the actors become more famous and earn more, they become more and more eager to be independent.
Start your own company, take on the plays you want to take, and take the path you want to take.
"It's just that I'm still hesitating, once I open my own, it will be difficult for me to enjoy the company's resources, and it is very likely that my acting career will be greatly hit. ”
Lu Heng took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and as a listener, he asked curiously, "What resources are they?"
Huang Bo hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "There are a lot, such as connections in the entertainment industry, and the fight for good films, after all, the investor behind many good films may be my company." And in terms of public relations, once there is any stain on my personal image, the public relations of the agency can play a big role. In fact, there are many more, such as personal packaging, announcements of variety shows, etc. These are things that are difficult for a personal studio to obtain. ”
After listening to Huang Bo's words, Lu Heng was thoughtful.
Huang Bo looked at Lu Heng and muttered in his heart, in fact, there was the most important point, he didn't say it.
That is the lack of funds, the net worth of a small star, in fact, it is quite difficult to support a company, and the funds cannot be opened, so what he said before actually does not exist.
However, in Huang Bo's eyes, after he finished speaking, Lu Heng laughed after a long silence.
"Lu Dong, what are you laughing at, do you think what I said is wrong?"
Lu Heng shook his head and chuckled, "Actually, I don't think the things you mentioned are big deals. ”
"Oh?" Huang Bo sat up straight and looked at Lu Heng curiously.
Lu Heng leaned back, leaned back in his chair, and explained confidently: "For actors, in fact, the most important thing is the work, and things like connections seem to be important, but they are just icing on the cake. For example, Master Xing, everyone says that his popularity is not good, but who would say that he is not a great and successful actor?"
Huang Bo was dumbfounded, unable to refute it.
Lu Heng continued: "As long as you have good works, then all the doors will be open for you." As for how a good work comes, it is nothing more than a good script, and your excellent acting skills, plus the director's skills. If you go out on your own, then you can pick the script yourself and decide who to work with. ”
"But what if people don't like me and don't want me if they have a good script?" asked Huang Bo with little confidence.
Lu Heng laughed out loud, and in Huang Bo's puzzled eyes, he said: "You are an actor now, whether it is fame or acting strength, you are guaranteed, do you think people will look down on you?"
"Uh......."
Ignoring Huang Bo's consternation, Lu Heng said to himself: "I am a businessman, not a person in your circle, but many truths are the same. Your so-called connections, resources, PR, packaging, and a series of other things are actually all built on fame and money. You have fame, as long as the money is in place, other things are just at your fingertips. ”
Huang Bo spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "But I'm just short of money!"
