Chapter 1157: Xingzai!
"Xingzai, after you have dinner later, let's go to the crew supervised by Wang, they are in Songcheng today. The director of the crew stood in front of a young man and said with a smile, "He has prepared a role for you, and there are about two episodes, which is not bad." It's just to work hard, you have to start filming tomorrow, and you have to get familiar with it quickly. ”
"Okay, I see, thank you, Brother Finch. Zhou Xingchi put down the lunch box in his hand and said respectfully.
"Okay, okay, you can eat first! I, I like a hard-working young man like you, work hard, one day you will come out!" said the crew director with a smile.
"Thank you, Brother Finch, I will definitely make achievements and repay all of you for your help to me. Zhou Xingchi said.
Seeing his respectful attitude, the crew director left with a smile.
Most of the actors next to him looked at Zhou Xingchi with some envy and hatred.
This group of them are all contracted actors of Kylin Satellite TV, and they are formal employees, and compared with the dragon set, the salary and security are much higher.
But who doesn't want to climb up?
Who doesn't want to become a superstar step by step like Zhou Runfa and them?
Even if you can't become a superstar, like Liu Ji, Zeng Qi, and Wu Mengda, and become an important gold medal supporting role, it is also a fragrant bun that makes a lot of money and is snatched by the producers!
But they all know that they and Zhou Xingchi are different.
From the first day Zhou Xingchi came in, there were rumors that he was handpicked by Jun Shao, and now he wants to be greatly cultivated, and he will be prepared to be of great use in the future.
But after watching it for a long time, he is still spinning in the dragon set, and everyone thinks that this is probably a rumor, right?
However, after a year, Zhou Xingchi has changed from a trick to an ordinary actor with lines, and so far it has been another half a year, both in terms of lines and the frequency of appearances, which has increased a lot, and this upward trajectory can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.
If a person's upward trajectory looks like a textbook-like standard, then there is probably something unknown in it, so many people believe that rumor again.
They felt that someone must be arranging these things so that Zhou Xingchi could be slowly cultivated.
So during this time, many people approached Zhou Xingchi intentionally or unintentionally, hoping to have a better relationship with him, and if Zhou Xingchi developed in the future, they could also help them.
However, in addition to filming, Zhou Xingchi has very few words, and many people have dealt with him, and they all feel that this young man is very boring and difficult to get along with, and even after eating something several times, everyone can't feel that they can become his friends.
The only person who can get along with Zhou Xingchi all the time can be called his good friend is Wu Mengda.
It's also strange to say, there is usually Wu Mengda's crew, and there is usually Zhou Xingchi, and Zhou Xingchi is one of the few people who can stand next to watch the protagonists and supporting actors act, and the producer and director will not care about him.
This is also the most important reason why those tricks and ordinary actors look at Zhou Xingchi differently.
If it had been someone else, I am afraid that I would have been ordered to go away and do my own thing.
Now Zhou Xingchi has a supporting role, and half of it is also with Wu Mengda.
For example, today.
Sitting next to Zhou Xingchi was Wu Mengda.
Since the declaration of bankruptcy in April 79, Wu Mengda has been unknowingly in Kirin Satellite TV for 3 years.
In the past three years, Wu Mengda has entered from an ordinary supporting role, and with continuous efforts, he has slowly become the top ten gold medal supporting roles on Kylin Satellite TV, and there are basically two dramas waiting for him to shoot every month.
Wu Mengda never picks a play, as long as there is a play that needs him, he will go.
In this way, Wu Mengda's ability to make money has greatly increased, and last year's salary and bonus exceeded 500,000, which simply surpassed Zeng Qi, Liu Ji, and Qin Pei, and became the first person under the fifth big star.
According to everyone's estimates, according to this Thai situation, at most after this year, Wu Mengda will be able to pay off all the arrears, lift the bankruptcy protection, and regain financial freedom.
And because of the countless supporting roles he has played, Wu Mengda's acting skills have also improved by leaps and bounds in the past three years, and in many ways he has approached the best Zeng Qi and Qin Pei.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to appear in so many plays and earn so much money last year.
But because of such a toss, Wu Mengda has become much more mature and stable, and has won a good reputation both on the set and in life.
He is much more popular than Zhou Xingchi.
This is the same in previous lives and in this life.
"Xingzai, I think if you continue to exercise like this, your good days are really coming. Waiting for the director to leave, Wu Mengda said slowly while eating.
"It's still early. It was also when the director left, Zhou Xingchi's smiling face was gone, and he sighed, "I don't know when and what month I can come out." ”
"Don't think about it so much, everyone is in a different situation. Jiang Ziya only met King Wen of Zhou at the age of seventy, can you say that his achievements are not big, and his deeds are not enough to be recited?" Wu Mengda said with a smile, "Some people just need to accumulate a lot of money, so that they can take on more important responsibilities." What's more, you've only been around for more than a year, and Zhou Yanfa has been a trick for a few years, so you don't know it!"
Wu Mengda said these words to Zhou Xingchi many times, but every time it will have an effect.
Hearing this, Zhou Xingchi smiled, nodded, and didn't say anything more.
But at this moment, suddenly they heard a commotion.
Zhou Xingchi looked up, but there was a person walking in the distance, talking to the producer of this play.
Zhou Xingchi recognized him, this is Qi Qiyi, the newly popular young producer of Kylin Satellite TV.
People know that he is Jun Shao's descendant, and it is only a matter of time before he soars, no, at the end of last year, he got a script specially written by Jun Shao and appointed him to be the producer.
It's just that Qi Qiyi has not started filming, which makes many actors eager to see through, and their hearts feel like they are being tickled, and they can't wait to be sure to join the crew immediately.
He came here today, he chose someone, right?
Zhou Xingchi lowered his head and sighed secretly, he didn't know whose luck was so good that Qi Qiyi could choose someone in person.
It would be great if I could take on such a role and have someone invite me in person.
He didn't think that he was like Liang Chaowei now, he was so red that he was purple, so red that he had no reason, he just wanted to be the protagonist.
The actors around him were also talking, but Zhou Xingchi suddenly felt that his voice suddenly became quieter.
He looked up suddenly, but found that Qi Qiyi was already standing in front of him.
Looking at Zhou Xingchi, who was a little dumbfounded, Qi Qiyi was a little puzzled in his heart, you said his appearance, he must not be ugly, but playing a positive character is a little bit worse, let alone the male number one.
But if you play the villain?
No.
Jun Shao has worked so hard to cultivate this guy, and it definitely won't be for a villain.
So what does he have in the best of the best?
Qi Qiyi felt that his task was even more important.
Qi Qiyi stood in front of him, looking at himself all the time, but he didn't speak, Zhou Xingchi felt a little furious in his heart, but he didn't shout out words to say hello.
It was Wu Mengda who helped him, "Producer Qi, are you here to find Xingzai?"
"Oh, Brother Da, hello, hello!" Qi Qiyi noticed that Wu Mengda was still sitting next to him, and he quickly smiled, "Yes, I'm here to find Xingzai." ”
If you want to mix well in the entertainment industry, you must be well-informed and be a suitable person.
Qi Qiyi knew that Wu Mengda was personally bankrupt at the beginning, but Yin Jun reached out and pulled him and recommended him to Jiashi at that time, which shows that people can also speak, for this kind of person, even if he is down, you can't underestimate it.
What's more, Qi Qiyi is not the kind of snobbish person, in general, this person's personality is quite kind, and he is not as domineering as Xiao Sheng in the crew, he can usually solve things very tactfully, and his popularity on Kylin Satellite TV is also very good.
After Wu Mengda nodded with a slight smile, he turned his head and poked Zhou Xingchi with his elbow, "What are you doing in a daze, call someone quickly!"
"Oh, Supervisor Qi is done!" Zhou Xingchi stood up as if a spring had been installed.
"Hello Xingzai. Qi Qiyi smiled, "You prepare, go to xx tomorrow to report and get the script, and wait to join the group!"
"Yes, I will work hard!Thank you, Producer Qi!" Zhou Xingchi said subconsciously.
He thought it was another good supporting role.
But Wu Mengda noticed something, "Producer Qi, what kind of scene are we Xingzi filming this time, and what preparations do we have to make?"
Qi Qiyi said: "It's the play that Jun Shao gave me, it's called "Chivalrous Benevolence". Jun Shao designated Xingzi to be the male number three, Xingzai, you have to come on!"
"Huh!?"
A group of onlookers next to him all gasped.
They are all actors on Kirin Satellite TV for several years, and many of them have worked in Jiashi before.
Everyone knows what it means to be hand-picked by "Jun Shao".
Especially Zhou Xingchi is not the male number one, and he can be handpicked by Yin Jun, this is not an ordinary attention!
No wonder Qi Qiyi came to find someone in person!
Zhou Xingchi didn't expect that he opened his mouth wide and didn't come back to his senses until Qi Qiyi left.
It was still a group of actors who flocked to him, and the gossiping voices woke him up.
"Congratulations, Starboy!"
"Xingzi, you're going to send it!"
"Xingzai, you have become famous, don't forget our old friends!"
“……”
The noisy shouting of a group of people made Zhou Xingchi a little dazed and at a loss.
He is not a sociable person in the first place, although this group of actors has been working together for this time, but after the play, everyone has not spoken much.
Suddenly, they were so enthusiastic, but Zhou Xingchi was not used to it, so he could only smirk and say "thank you".
He was indeed happy, too.
Yin Jun actually didn't forget him, and after watching him hone enough, he began to give him some opportunities, which was really in vain for his hard work and persistence.
To be honest, Zhou Xingchi is still a little confused about his future.
Because he wants to be a serious actor, but Yin Jun said that he is "the embryo of the king of comedy", and he doesn't feel that he has such potential when he looks left and right.
And what he has been working on is the development of the main drama, occasionally starring in a few light-hearted and funny movies, but he can't find the feeling, and the producer and director of the crew also feel that he is a little out of tune.
But the problem is that in terms of the main drama, everyone also said that Zhou Xingchi's appearance was a bit unserious, and it seemed to be a little bit worse.
So recently, Zhou Xingchi has played some small characters, and they are small characters who laugh and scold, so he feels a little bit, which makes him very depressed.
Now that Yin Jun has appointed him to star in a movie, is it to transform himself?
Or is Jun Shao already looking for a future path for himself?
Thinking that Yin Jun has the magical ability to "turn stones into gold", Zhou Xingchi's heart was full of expectations for a while!
