Chapter 156: Skylight 00
Gao Xiang covered her mouth and smiled: "So, they are old fritters?"
Song Wan frowned, unable to react for a while.
Gao Xiang couldn't help laughing when she saw her dazed appearance, and after a while, she explained in Song Wan's annoyed and angry gaze, "I wrote into the contract how long a show will at least let them appear." ”
When Song Wan heard this, she immediately understood the trick.
Just like when she went to participate in the show "Go Up Star" before, she also wrote down in the contract how long an episode of the show should appear.
Because if you don't write it clearly in black and white, there will be more hands and feet that can be done with this kind of clause, and in the end, there will be no way to find someone to reason.
Gao Xiang is willing to write the length into the contract, which can be regarded as sincerity for the two actresses-
That's what they want most.
Although everyone knows that the crew may not necessarily edit according to the contract, they at least have confidence.
But they can think of this, obviously they have seen a lot and have been cheated a lot.
Although Gao Xiang's tone was a little contemptuous when she spoke, in fact, she didn't have too much prejudice against these two actresses in her heart-
I've seen too many things like this in the circle, and I'm used to it, but I don't really feel much anymore.
Only this time she confronted the greed of the opposite side -
It had been many years since anyone dared to speak to her, and it made her feel a little uncomfortable.
But the matter was settled, and she turned her head and forgot about the previous incident.
"Now that the matter is settled, the audition for the role has to be prepared. Song Wan turned her head to look at Zhou Qi, "Director Zhou, which two directors did you invite?"
Zhou Qi: "Qian Fu and Cai Qi." ”
Song Wan was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "I thought it would be Director Qian and Director Zhao." ”
Although they are all well-known directors, Cai Qi is obviously not bothered by the accident world, except for the news of him when the movie is released, he wants to know what he is doing at other times, and even the paparazzi with the most powerful tracking technology have no way.
Zhou Qi smiled, looking a little proud.
Song Wan almost couldn't hold back scolding him, that expression ...... It's too bad.
Gao Xiang was also a little stunned, obviously, she didn't expect that Zhou Qi would invite Cai Qi in the end.
Seeing that they were stunned, Zhou Qi suddenly laughed: "I didn't expect it, or do you think it's strange? Or do you want to change someone?"
Gao Xiang shook his head: "Whether it is Director Qian, Director Zhao or Director Cai, if we can come to participate in our variety show, we will all make money." ”
Song Wan nodded, she looked at Zhou Qi's eyes, with a little curiosity.
Zhou Qi didn't sell it either, and said, "Cai Qi has a role in his hand, which is a supporting role, and his character design collides with a character in "Stars", so let's see if we can choose a suitable actor." ”
Song Wan sat up straight and looked at Zhou Qi in disbelief: "Are you serious?"
Zhou Qi spread his hands: "Is there anything strange about this?"
He thought for a moment, and then said, "Or isn't that not strange?"
Song Wan was stunned, but after reacting, she had to agree with Zhou Qi's words-
Indeed, Cai Qi starred in "Acting Masters" because of Zhou Qi, and the reason for helping to select the right actor is much more believable than that he wants to take the opportunity to select actors, so he starred in this variety show.
"Cai Qi said, although the two roles are still partly different, he wants to find the right actor for him during the actor audition for that role. ”
Song Wan frowned, "Why don't you just say what kind of actor he wants to choose, and we'll help him ...... by the way"
"Cai Qi has a strange personality, and he doesn't like fully formed actors. Zhou Qi also felt a little distressed, "He likes to train actors by himself." ”
In this regard, Gao Xiang has the most right to speak: "Many of the stars I have brought before want to cooperate with Director Cai, and some have already cooperated with Director Cai, but without exception, Director Cai is very dissatisfied with them.
"Even if Director Cai had to appoint them for some reason, they were also scolded very badly during the filming of the crew, and Director Cai didn't mind showing his dislike for them in the crew at all. ”
She didn't say that in the end, those investors, companies, or big names who overwhelmed people didn't dare to use any more tricks to force him to use actors he didn't want to use.
Because as long as Cai Qi wants to, he can find ways to drive people out of the crew halfway.
And the reasons given by Cai Qi in the end, without exception, are all ......
"I don't like your acting style, it's too greasy, it's not aura, it's not what I want at all. ”
After Gao Xiang finished speaking, Zhou Qi was immediately happy, "I didn't expect him to have such an attitude towards those artists before you." ”
Gao Xiang glanced at him.
Zhou Qi hurriedly stopped his mouth, changed the topic, and said, "I still saw him when he didn't give Yang Qing face, and I knew that Cai Qi was very turtle hairy in choosing actors. ”
Song Wan thought about it, too, it has always been rumored that Cai Qi likes to appoint newcomer actors, and he is also the director who appoints and popularizes the most newcomer actors among the currently famous directors of this generation.
However, Song Wan was still worried.
You must know that directors with more peculiar personalities like Cai Qi are also more self-conscious, and they are unlikely to care about other things.
"Director Zhou, although I think it's a little unfounded, I still want to ask," she paused, "Director Cai won't just pick out his favorite actor Hou after picking out his favorite actor, right?"
Gao Xiang blinked: "......"
Zhou Qi: "......"
He wanted to say that it was impossible, how could Cai Qi be so unprofessional.
However, he soon realized that he was a judge for a variety show...... It's not Cai Qi's profession at all, so how can you talk about professional ethics?
Zhou Qi fully believes that after Cai Qi chooses the actor he wants, he has a 90% chance of throwing his hands and leaving.
Gao Xiang was a little unsure: "Director Cai shouldn't do this, right? If a big name like him defaults, the liquidated damages will be sky-high." ”
The more big-name actors are, the less constraints the ordinary breach clause will give them, because they earn more, and they won't pay attention to the liquidated damages of just one show. Therefore, in order to restrain these big names, the liquidated damages marked on their contracts are a sky-high price that ordinary people can hardly imagine.
This is normal.
However, after Song Wan heard this, she had already begun to think about whether to double the liquidated damages on Director Cai's contract-
She also thinks that with Director Cai's character, after finding the actor, she is likely to pull the actor to film, and she will not care whether the show will be in trouble after he leaves.
Zhou Qi was a little confused, and he had already begun to regret it before the show started recording.
Zhou Qi was dumbfounded: "I think with Cai Qi's character, if he really finds a suitable actor halfway, he will definitely leave." ”
Gao Xiang's eyes widened directly, "Director Zhou, are you teasing me?"
Zhou Qi looked at her, and his eyes began to flutter, "I want to tease you, but you have never been fooled." ”
Gao Xiang: "......" are you still in the mood to joke at this time?
Gao Xiang pursed her lips and proposed, "Can we terminate the contract with Director Cai?"
Whether it is a peaceful termination or payment of liquidated damages, they can't leave such a time bomb in the program team, right?
However, while the contract set a sky-high liquidated damages for Director Cai, it also ordered a sky-high liquidated damages for the program team.
This money is of course nothing for Zhou Qi to see personally, but if they really breach the contract, it is absolutely impossible for him to let this money out.
The liquidated damages must be deducted from the crew's funds.
However, the crew now has an investment of 250 million, which seems like a lot, but the crew is still making careful calculations, lest the funds will not be enough to open the skylight when the film is done in the later stage.
In such a situation, Zhou Qi will temporarily change his hexagram when he is crazy.
And he also knows Cai Qi, after he has made up his mind to choose actors from the actors who audition for "Stars", it is impossible for him to persuade him to terminate the contract peacefully.
Do you really have to wait until Cai Qi finds the actor and hope that Cai Qi will continue to stay in the show because of the sky-high liquidated damages?
- What do you think? At that time, Cai Qi would definitely rather go bankrupt than waste time on the show.
——Zhou Qi, who understands Cai Qi, thinks.
"Can we ask what type of actor he wants?"
Since the role played by the actor Director Cai wants to find overlaps with a role in "Stars", wouldn't it be good for them to directly inquire about this role, and then arrange the audition for this role to the end?
Song Wan's mind spun around and immediately thought of a solution.
But if things were so easy to solve, wouldn't Zhou Qi, who was friends with Cai Qi, not know?
Zhou Qi said with a bitter face, "I'll just say it......"
"Huh?" Song Wan looked at Zhou Qi, "What's wrong?"
Isn't that a good idea?
If Cai Qi really wants to find an actor, they put that role at the end, at least to ensure that Cai Qi will appear in the show for a whole season.
Even in the last issue, Cai Qi found the actor he wanted, turned around and left with someone - even if the first actor who auditioned for the role was taken by Director Cai on the audition field - because there were only one or two episodes, the program team was easy to edit and cover up the fact that Cai Qi was not there.
However......
"From Cai Qi to find me after hearing the news, and then signing the contract, until now......" Zhou Qi's face turned pale, "Cai Qi didn't tell me which role it was at all." ”
Song Wan opened her mouth wide in surprise, so, did Director Cai trap Director Zhou?
Zhou Qi obviously understood: "I just didn't expect him to play tricks on me......"
In the past, although Cai Qi had a strange and willful personality, he had never looked down on these small means, let alone playing tricks with him. Why did he start plucking his friends for a role?
Qian Fu, who has been preparing to watch Zhou Qi's jokes after knowing the news: Ahahaha, finally it is Zhou Qi's turn to be cheated by Cai Qi, I have to wait to see when the skylight of the final show opens, Zhou Qi's expression of regret is so blue that his intestines are blue.
Qian Fu, Zhao Qing and other directors who were dug by Cai Qi because of various tricks and tricks for their roles: "Good friends are to share weal and woe, how can we be the only ones who have been pitted, and you have not been cheated once?"
thought of the scene when the actor they had their eyes on was targeted by Cai Qi, and was signed by Cai Qi in a blink of an eye, and they didn't find out until they finally turned on the camera......
Well pitted!
Zhou Qi, who later learned the truth: "...... How much of a feud?"
Of course, now, Zhou Qi didn't think that Cai Qi would do such a thing, but it was in his nature.
He was just a little confused because of this discovery: "I'm going to go to Cai Qi to ask for clarification!"
"Director Zhou, forget it. ”
Zhou Qi turned around, "Song Wan, aren't you afraid that the show will open the skylight halfway?"
