Chapter 226 [A Trip on the Tip of the Tongue]
(In the last two days, I concentrated on coding words and begged for a few monthly passes!)
……
This dinner was enjoyed by the guests and hosts. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The time was not early, everyone said goodbye one after another, and Chen Ergou also got up to send Principal Wang away first. Principal Wang drank a lot of wine as soon as he was happy, and his girlfriend drank better than him and drank more, which was not at ease for him to drive back to Chen Ergou.
Fortunately, Zhang Zhengyang is not good at drinking, so it is no problem to let Lao Zhang give him a ride.
Before leaving, Principal Wang grabbed Chen Ergou's clothes from the car window and said, "Wait for my call tomorrow and help you go to see the house." ”
Chen Ergou smiled: "Then you can get up early, don't call at eleven or two o'clock." Why don't I call you and wake you up. ”
"No, who doesn't know that you wake up early and go to bed early. Don't be surprised by calling me at seven or eight o'clock in the morning, waking me up, and throwing your phone directly. ”
Chen Ergou said with a smile: "Don't worry, you drank tonight and went to bed early." Wake up early tomorrow morning and exercise to exercise. After looking at the house, I still have a plan to try it. ”
"What's the plan?"
"Confidential...... Absolutely stimulating. ”
Principal Wang rolled his eyes and said angrily: "It's really boring to chat with you, I'll see you tomorrow." Let's drive. ”
Zhang Zhengyang started the car, and the Bentley luxury car was gone.
After sending off Principal Wang and returning, Li Zhongli and the others did not leave in a hurry.
Cai Yinong looked at Li Zhongli meaningfully and said, "Director Li, what do you think of that incident?"
Li Zhongli eats people with a soft mouth and a soft hand, both of them are accounted for, what else can he say, nodded and said: "Ergou has a good image, popularity and high IQ and EQ are all online, as long as the acting skills are good, this actor is no problem." I have no problem with this, you can tell him. ”
As soon as Chen Ergou returned, he heard others talking about him, and he didn't know why: "What are you talking about?"
Cai Yinong smiled: "I was about to tell you, I actually have something to discuss with you when I came to you this time." ”
"The company is preparing a drama recently, Shi Shi is the starring role, and Xiaoxin is also one of the main characters, but the male protagonist has not been found. I've had a few interviews before, but I haven't decided yet, so we've decided to let you give it a try. ”
Chen Ergou's face was weird, "Acting? You say, I'll listen to you." ”
Cai Yinong began to introduce, the heroine Li Shishi and the director Li Zhongli were next to her, and they also added a few words from time to time, it seems that they also agree with themselves very much.
So this dinner has actually been regarded as an interview for yourself?
Only Lin Gou's eyes are envious, he is also one of the protagonists, strictly speaking, his role is only a supporting role. As a newcomer, he is already very satisfied, how can he compare with the dog master.
It can be seen that the company has been preparing for a long time, and the preparations from the script to the filming have been done quite carefully, even the casting is no exception, not blindly choosing those stars, but looking at the fit of the characters, obviously has great expectations for this drama. If you change to a newcomer, you will have the opportunity to play the leading actor as soon as you enter the industry, but I am afraid that I will jump up happily, and if it is the little dragon who was still crawling in Hengdian a few months ago, Chen Ergou should be equally ecstatic, but at this time, his thoughts are drifting away......
Looking back, will the trajectory of life continue?
Half of his life in the dream has been revealed, there is no him in the future of this pattern, and what he has been doing recently is trying to imprint his own traces in the trajectory of history. But do you really want to be an actor and act?
He once made a life choice while lying in a hospital bed, but now it is not another life choice. interrupted: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Sister Cai, I don't plan to go back to being an actor recently." ”
"Uh...... What do you say?"
Cai Yinong reacted after a while, "You don't want to act?" For an actor who has been able to mix tricks for three years before, it is somewhat difficult to accept to suddenly tell you that he is no longer acting.
"Yes. ”
Everyone looked at each other, and Cai Yinong was speechless for a long time and said: "I have already arranged a plan for you, open up your popularity with variety shows, and you will have a lot of free time after filming the first season of "God of Wild Food". Then arrange for you to go back to your old profession and become an actor. As long as you can come up with a few more masterpieces, you will be able to stabilize the situation and stand on the front line in a few years. ”
Chen Ergou rubbed his nose, he didn't expect his future to be so bright.
Line...... It's not that easy to achieve. There can be a few stars in China who really stand on the front line, and the Tang people are now only Hu Ge on the first line, and even Li Shishi is a little worse. Just look at the envious expression of the forest dog next to him.
"But now you suddenly tell me that you don't act anymore, so what do you think? Do you want to keep doing "Survival in the Wilderness" and be an anchor and variety show star for the rest of your life, or do you feel that now that you are suddenly developed, you don't want to go further. ”
The tone is indignant, and there is a posture of hatred that iron is not steel.
Chen Ergou hurriedly comforted him and said, "Sister Cai, I am very grateful to know that you are for my good." Naturally, I am not willing to be a variety show star, but I ......"
Outdated Internet celebrities are not as good as chickens, this reality is very cruel.
Don't look at his popularity now, there are countless diehards clamoring to fan him for the rest of his life. Maybe the show "God of Food" in the wilderness can be popular for a few years with its current popularity. But once he can't come up with something new, what if the audience gets tired of watching it?
The most fickle thing in the world is the fans, and being a star is surrounded by fans before and after, which is very glorious. But what celebrities are most afraid of is that they will suddenly lose their luster and become obscure. The psychological pressure they have to bear is far greater than that of other industries. That's why so many little stars have to work hard to keep climbing up, even at the expense of their dignity, body, and even morality.
If a person is sailing against the current, if he does not advance, he will retreat.
Even the richest man will never stop accumulating his wealth.
Before stepping out of that realm, he will always be a frog at the bottom of the well, and all he sees is the sky at the mouth of the well. Only when you stand taller and look up, will you find that there is a vast blue sky overhead.
Chen Ergou poured her a cup of tea with a smile and said with a smile: "My road is not smooth sailing, and after I get rich, I start to enjoy this kind of thing, so naturally I can't do it." ”
Cai Yinong's face was a little kind, she wasn't really angry, she just had too much expectation on Chen Ergou, but she was disappointed that she didn't get the response she deserved.
People will always sigh after the loss: if God gave me another chance, I would be what would be. But the results are often sad. Because even if God really opens his eyes and gives him another chance, the vast majority of people are still blind, and they will still sit back and watch the opportunity pass quietly and cannot seize it.
Chen Ergou said sincerely: "Gou Jian spent forty years preparing for revenge, Liu Bang prepared for fifty years to become emperor, and Jiang Taigong also waited for eighty years to catch King Wen of Zhou. And what about me...... It only took me five months to go from fame to fame. Most of my fans also like to watch the wilderness survival live, but it has not translated from liking the show to completely liking me as a person. ”
"I am naturally grateful for the company's ability to support me. But what I need is not to become famous quickly and expand my achievements, even if I dream of becoming famous, I am nothing, what I am really worried about is that when the opportunity comes, I will find myself unprepared, like I am now. ”
Everyone fell silent and looked at him in amazement.
In this world of fame and fortune, how many people can still keep their hearts when fame and fortune come? For fame and fortune, there are many people who put down their dignity, but some people feel even more strange when they admit that they are not prepared.
At this time, even Li Zhongli was thoughtful and looked at this young man differently.
Cai Yinong frowned, "What the hell are you going to do?"
"Sister Cai, my show has just begun to get on the right track, I still have a lot of places to go, and there are still many ideas that have not been put into practice. I don't have enough precipitation now, I'm afraid it would backfire to venture into other fields, and even if I actually act, I can't devote myself to it now. ”
"I've already planned that the studio's second project after that is to prepare for a documentary. Chinese people do not leave to eat, I want to shoot a travel show on the tip of the tongue, record the firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea in life, about Chinese culture and food. ”
Cai Yinong frowned instinctively, documentaries are not what they are good at, and they are not wise.
"Do you want to make a documentary about food?"
Li Zhongli suddenly spoke, and said: "With your cooking skills, your understanding of food is naturally extremely high, and making a documentary on food is also a succession of your program, which can be regarded as opening up a new path for yourself." Moreover, the impact of making documentaries in China is small, even if the shooting is smashed, it doesn't matter. And after accumulating experience from documentaries, you can also change careers to become directors and producers. ”
"But to be honest, Ergou, we are all very optimistic about you, and the road of documentary is not easy to walk. The domestic film and television industry is now in a golden age of rapid development, with various themes emerging in an endless stream, but there is no commendable documentary in the real calculation. Do you have a detailed plan?"
"Yes. ”
Chen Ergou said with a smile: "I am also planning to make use of the idle funds in my hand recently and start preparations." The theme is "A Bite of China", which revolves around the Chinese's pursuit of food and life. Food is secondary, and I want to tell about the neglected cultural backgrounds, and use specific character stories to connect them to tell about the food ecology in various parts of China. ”
Cai Yinong wanted to say something, but Li Zhongli took over the conversation and asked, "Do you introduce food in the way of travel, this is what you are good at." What is your position, can you tell us more about it?"
Chen Ergou shrugged his shoulders and said: "The positioning is very clear, it is a 'high-end food documentary', which is filmed with high-definition camera equipment throughout the whole process, and I will coordinate and direct it." ”
"The first time I shoot a documentary, I don't need to make a film documentary, a TV series documentary is more suitable for me, and the number of episodes will not be much, according to the theme, there should be seven episodes. ”
"Each episode is based on the theme and then looks for characters and stories that fit the theme.
The first thing I have to do is naturally copywriting, the production team will read and look at the relevant books, investigate, and then write the copy. Then send researchers to various places to investigate, collect information, and determine what kind of food needs to be filmed in the episode. ”
Finally, according to the actual situation, recruit a few crews...... Each crew doesn't need too many people, as long as there are choreographers and photographers. Shoot a story based on a single food that goes to various places and looks for suitable people to express the food in the shooting area. ”
He narrated his plans, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he couldn't stop: "For example, in the first episode, the theme was 'Nature's Gifts'. ”
"The story focuses on representative individuals, families or communities in very different geographical environments, and tells the story of the very different eating habits and lifestyles brought about by the great differences in the natural environment, such as arid, humid, extremely hot, and cold regions. ”
"What I want to shoot is not how exquisite and delicious the food can be compared to a five-star hotel, but to show the characteristics of traditional Chinese cuisine, show the most authentic traditional lifestyle of Chinese from generation to generation, and let the audience understand how the lotus root and fish they usually eat at the dinner table are produced in different environments." ”
"It can be a long and painful process. But the investment cost is not very large, everything is under control. And at present, in China, except for CCTV, there seems to be no company that dares to make a documentary like this. My studio was the first to eat crabs (Survival in the Wilderness), so now being a maverick and not making TV or movies is also in line with my development to make food documentaries instead. ”
After saying this, Cai Yinong was speechless.
She was completely wrong, Chen Ergou is not a person like Lin Xiaoxin who needs her to take care of her like a wet nurse, before he signed a contract with him, he had already single-handedly made his own show, and fought his way out of the live pan-entertainment industry and went straight to the TV station in the mainstream entertainment industry.
Of course, such a person's thoughts will not be the same as the actor's path.
Lin Xiaoxin looked admired, and the person in front of him was not much older than himself, but in his eyes, the gap between Chen Ergou and himself was very different.
Li Shishi was also relieved, and when she heard that Chen Ergou was unwilling to play the leading role at first, she was also a little uncomfortable. I haven't spoken for so long, and only now I can't help but ask, "Are you thinking about all this?...... I mean, it's a great idea, but there should be some difficulties in shooting, have you thought about it? ”
Chen Ergou smiled: "Of course one person is not enough, I will find some people to work with." Of course, I also have some ideas myself, and it is only after watching too many BBC documentaries that I have a whim. ”
"For example, the BBC doesn't talk about individual people, but about people in relationships. When I want to shoot, I don't just talk about a person, for example, a Tibetan girl, I want to shoot not only her story, but also her and her mother's story - when the relationship between the characters is presented one by one, the story will come out. ”
Li Zhongli smiled: "Mr. Cai, I think Ergou is right." ”
'He has a clear idea of his future, it's a good idea and you should support it as well. ”
Cai Yinong sighed and said helplessly: "It's the first time I've met such an assertive newcomer, and I feel like my agent has become a waste." ”
Chen Ergou hurriedly said: "Sister Cai, don't say that, without you pulling me into the circle, I would still be messing around among the anchors." ”
Cai Yinong said angrily: "Don't make a fool of yourself, I haven't influenced your thoughts." Then again, now that you've got your idea, the company is naturally supportive. ”
"What I'm thinking about now is the question of your profitability after the documentary is made, so I can't really practice it. ”
"Local star TV stations may not be interested in documentaries, if they are only broadcast on the Internet, they will naturally sell with your popularity, but that is not the first choice, and documentaries on the Internet are not taken seriously at all. I've heard that CCTV has been planning reform lately, and the concept of viewing as king may need to change. ”
Li Zhongli asked, "Hey, what's going on, is the news accurate?"
Cai Yinong spread his hands and said, "It's just news." I heard that it is to launch a charm record time period on CCTV and add a record channel, which is also to compete for more international communication rights in the future. The details have not yet been decided, but it is estimated that it will be this year. I'll inquire about the news again, maybe when Ergou makes this documentary now, it will really be a good time. ”
Chen Ergou smiled: "I want Sister Cai to bother more." If the company wants to invest, I welcome it unconditionally. ”
Cai Yinong's face looked much better, and said with a smile: "It's too early to say this, let's discuss it carefully when we go back." ”
Farewell to everyone one by one, before leaving, Chen Ergou cheekily exchanged phone calls with Master Li, and before he had time to say a few more words, Lin Xiaoxin came up and exchanged numbers with him, "Master Dog, are you playing LOL jungler, next time we will open the black together." ”
This guy is really interesting, the first time we met, I directly asked him to play games together, and he concluded that Chen Ergou would definitely play games.
Chen Ergou agreed with a smile.
Seeing everyone leave, he went home and flipped out the number, hesitated a few times to delete and write, and finally sent a text message to Master Li, "It's a pity that I can't work with the goddess." Acting with you, I'm afraid of messing up this show, I hope you don't mind. ”
After the send button was issued, I let out a heavy breath in my heart and went home with anticipation.
After washing up, he lay down on the back with Rengar in his arms, and looked at his phone several times, but he didn't wait for a reply. I couldn't help but be disappointed. Just when he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly waited for a reply, "The gift is beautiful, thank you." ”
What does "......" mean, and does she mind or not?
It's hard.
But this was the goddess's first text message, which almost didn't make him beautiful, and almost replied in seconds: "If you like it...... Good night. ”
"Good night. ”
Rub, say good night, shouldn't you take the opportunity to talk more, I really want to slap myself.
"Meow~~"
Rengar looked at him strangely, humans are so weird, they can be excited like this when they sleep.
