Chapter 452: Calling

It may take a hundred good things to make a good impression of a thing, but it only takes one bad thing to destroy a good impression. Any profession has unspoken rules, bad habits and black sheep, but some professions, because of their importance, as well as the higher expectations and hopes of others, once the unspoken rules, bad habits and black sheep are found, it is easy for people to hate the entire industry.

For example, police, teachers, doctors, officials...... In fact, human nature is almost the same, and so are all walks of life.

Li Feng can cultivate people like Chang Shan and Qiao Xue who can change the world, but he feels that he does not have the ability to change the world. Therefore, he prefers to live a simple and casual life, and he has never thought of asking his students to change a certain industry.

Of course, you can't get caught up in too bad unspoken rules or bad habits. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing for him, and Li Feng's request for Cai Zilong is like this.

The entertainment industry, that is also a circle where unspoken rules and bad habits are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Cai Zilong wants to be a director in the future, so naturally he will inevitably come into contact with these things.

After seven months of training, coupled with his ability to work in the industry for many years, Cai Zilong's professional ability value for film screenwriting has exceeded 90 points, and the ability value of the film director profession has also exceeded 70 points. Li Feng felt that it was almost time for Cai Zilong to go out to practice.

In the evening, after dinner, Li Feng called Cai Zilong aside.

"I can open a film and television company? This happiness came too quickly, I wasn't even mentally prepared!" Cai Zilong couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Then I'll talk about it later, I'm not in a hurry. Li Feng said with a smile.

"Don't, teacher, that's what I'll say. Cai Zilong suddenly had a bitter face, he was deeply involved in the world, and he had been at the bottom of the big dye vat in the entertainment industry for more than ten years, and he had long wanted to go out and raise his eyebrows.

Li Feng was just joking, he said: "Your screenwriting ability is good now, are you thinking of any scripts?"

Cai Zilong shook his head slightly.

"Then you can take the time to conceive one, and besides, where do you plan to build a film and television company?" asked Li Feng.

"Just Cangnan City. Cai Zilong said without thinking.

Li Feng said unexpectedly: "In terms of film and television companies, there should only be those big cities that are suitable, right? Otherwise, who would be willing to join your company?"

"No matter where you are, the entertainment industry is nothing more than fame and fortune. If you have a good reputation and convenient transportation, it doesn't matter if it's a big city or a small city. Cai Zilong said with a smile: "Staying in Cangnan City, it is convenient to be a teacher in the teacher's school." Second, the entertainment industry is a bit chaotic, even big directors are sometimes a little involuntarily, film and television companies in Cangnan City, it is estimated that no one dares to come to the door to find trouble if they are full. ”

"That's up to you. Li Feng didn't say much, he reminded: "Let's speak first, your character, coupled with your previous experience, once you let yourself go, all kinds of unspoken rules will definitely fly." ”

Cai Zilong smiled embarrassedly, he still remembered that when he first came, he still thought that when he became a big director, Li Feng would also taste the unspoken rules of the famous entertainment industry. Later, when I learned about Li Feng's character, I didn't even dare to think about it.

Li Feng opened his mouth and said: "Generally, I don't interfere with you, if you are too criticized, don't do it." ”

"Teacher, don't worry, I won't mess around, at most, I will play big names and stand up to people who don't like it. Cai Zilong nodded.

Li Feng smiled dumbly, he could understand playing big names, putting up a shelf or something. Cai Zilong has struggled at the bottom of the big dye vat in the entertainment industry for more than ten years, crying, suffering, tiredness, kneeling, and once he rises, he naturally wants to raise his eyebrows.

Everyone is inevitably a little selfish, not to mention that Cai Zilong himself is not the kind of person who is upright, but his temperament is not bad.

"Well, the daily training plan is still the same. However, you can spare a few hours a day to prepare for the film and television company, and I will transfer the start-up capital to you later. When the script comes out, you give me a budget, and I'll transfer the money to you. Li Feng said.

"In the early stage, there are definitely no actors and resources or anything, can I ask Siyun to help contact SITC Film and Television Company and cooperate with SITC Film and Television Company?" Cai Zilong asked.

Li Feng pondered for a moment and said, "You can do it yourself!" But Siyun can help you match up at most, how to cooperate, it is best for you to talk about it yourself, and you have to pay whatever price you should pay. Like registering a company or something, you can also ask Yang Chuanjie for help, but friends belong to friends, and everything that should be counted has to be counted. ”

"I understand. Cai Zilong nodded repeatedly.

"Then it's settled, you can do the rest yourself!"

When Cai Zilong left, Li Feng transferred 50 million to his account.

And Cai Zilong returned to the room and immediately couldn't wait to start thinking about the script.

But I stared at the computer for a long time, but I couldn't write a word.

The heart is impetuous, the whole person is in extreme excitement, and the head can't think of anything at all.

"No, let's think about the film and television company first, and it's not too late to talk about the script after it's calm. ”

Knowing that it was impossible to come up with any script today, Cai Zilong picked up his mobile phone and called Yang Chuanjie first, asking him to help find an agent to register a company and go through various procedures.

Then, another phone call was made to Lin Siyun. Ask her to help say hello to SITC Film and Television Company, and you don't need to say anything, just mention it a little. For the rest, after the script came out, after knowing what kind of actors, procedures and resources were needed, he would contact SITC Film and Television Company to discuss the details of the cooperation in detail.

It was already past seven o'clock when all this was done. Cai Zilong found that he was still excited, he couldn't sit still, and he always felt that something was missing.

Sitting in a daze on the chair for more than half an hour, Cai Zilong finally figured out why he was still so excited.

After more than seven months, he entered the entertainment industry again, and he can be regarded as returning home.

But in the entertainment industry, no one knows at all!

Those who have ignored him, despised him, even scolded him, and insulted him, know nothing.

After seven months in the 'horticultural training class', the resentment and anger accumulated over the past ten years have been diluted by the peaceful, fun-filled life. Not only did he not plan to play any unspoken rules, but he didn't even plan to take revenge on those who had bullied him. But he still wants everyone who has known him to know that he Cai Zilong has stepped into the entertainment industry again, and he is no longer the humble fool who is called by others, but he still insists on becoming a director.

He will become a self-written, self-directed, or even self-invested director.

The most important thing is that he wrote, directed, and invested in the movie, which will also be a big hit.

"That's right, even if I cooperated with SITC Film and Television Company and used the resources of SITC Film and Television Company to shoot my first film, I also needed to train my own team to prepare for shooting and operating a film independently. ”

"So, I'll have to find a few acquaintances to come and help. ”

Cai Zilong picked up his mobile phone in a hurry and began to check the address book.

"Sun He!"

Cai Zilong suddenly grinned.

This guy is in the entertainment industry, and he is just as bitter as him.

The difference is that he has always dreamed of becoming a great director. Sun He, on the other hand, has always dreamed of becoming a big star.

It's a pity that this kid is ugly and dark, and his acting skills are not bad, but he has been mixed in the film and television city for several years, and one of the best roles is the stupid big brother who played the female number one in a movie with a box office of 200 million.

That stupid big brother, the acting is still good, and the box office is also very good in that period, and many directors and producers will sweep it again. When you meet an appreciative director or producer, you may be able to get up slowly. Even if you can't be a big star because of your appearance, you can't name a lot of people, but everyone knows the gold medal supporting role still has a chance. It's a pity that in the entertainment industry, luck is very important.

This guy obviously didn't have that luck.

"It can't be said that he is unlucky, today, his luck is not coming! I just don't know if this guy is still insisting on filming, and he hasn't been in touch for five years. Don't change your phone number, I won't be able to reach him, and I'll be out of luck. ”

Cai Zilong directly dialed Sun He's mobile phone number.

Both of them are at the bottom of the entertainment industry, and they are both the kind of people who are willing to give up their dignity and face for success, but they retain some bottom lines, the two still have a lot of common language, and their relationship is also good.

The melodious singing sounded, and Cai Zilong suddenly came to his senses.

This at least shows that the mobile phone number can still be reached. Of course, as for whether it is a change of number, it depends on whether Sun He answered the call.

"Hello?"

To Cai Zilong's disappointment, it was a woman's voice who answered the phone.

"May I ask if it's Sun He's mobile phone number?" Cai Zilong asked with a glimmer of hope.

"Yes, he's in the bathroom, do you have anything to do with him?" the woman asked.

Cai Zilong suddenly became excited, fortunately, the mobile phone number was not changed, it was just picked up by someone else.

"I'm his friend, my name is Cai Zilong, I used to be in a crew with him, and I wanted to talk to him. ”

"Oh......" The other side seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said, "Then I'll give him the phone." ”

"Okay!"

Cai Zilong nodded hurriedly.

After more than ten seconds, I vaguely heard the woman speak: "A person named Cai Zilong called and said that he had been in the same crew with you before." ”

"Cai Zilong, this guy hasn't contacted me in years. ”

Immediately after, a muttering sound.

The phone apparently came into Sun He's hands.

"Hey, Cai Zilong?" was obviously still a little unconvinced.

"It's me, isn't it a surprise?" Cai Zilong smiled.

"It's just an accident, you haven't called me in years. Sun He sighed.

"Didn't you beat me either!" Cai Zilong said.

"It's not good, it's really faceless. Sun He said with a smile: "You kid suddenly called me, didn't you want to borrow money from me, right? Let's talk about it first, more than 1,000 don't open your mouth, my wife is too strict, and a little stingy." ”

Cai Zilong was happy: "I remember hearing you say before, whoever asks you to borrow money in the future, you will use your wife's strict control as a shield, when did you get married?"

"It's been three or four years, and the kids are two years old. ”

"Congratulations, you've finally found your wife. Cai Zilong said with a smile: "The next time we meet, I'll give you a red envelope, are you still filming?"

"I didn't shoot when I got married, I couldn't make money, and I opened a fast food restaurant. ”

Sun He didn't care, the relationship between the two was indeed not bad, but that was several years ago. Even if you have the opportunity to meet again, it will only cost two or three hundred yuan to make up a red envelope.

He is okay now, at least he can't get the role of a dragon before, and it's better to eat steamed buns and drink tap water to get by, so he naturally doesn't pay much attention to it.

"Haven't you always wanted to be a star?" Cai Zilong was a little surprised, the two used to be difficult brothers, in addition to similar personalities and circumstances, one thing they also have in common is that they are both very persistent.

As far as he knew, Sun He had also held out for six or seven years.

"There's no way, when you're married, you always have to have a sense of responsibility. It's shameless enough, and if you can't even afford to raise your wife and children, you won't be able to see people. Sun He sighed helplessly.

"I can't see that you're still a responsible man. Cai Zilong teased.

"Not much, just a little. Sun He also laughed at himself, and immediately asked, "What about you?

"That's why I called you. ”

Cai Zilong was in good spirits, he hit a big luck, and he encountered a great opportunity. Once a difficult brother, when he has the ability and opportunity to give him a luck and opportunity, he will naturally not be stingy.

By the way, you can also enjoy the admiration and gratitude of the difficult brothers.

It's a win-win.

"What do you mean?" Sun He couldn't understand: "Do you have a role over there for me to play?"

"That's right!" Cai Zilong nodded, although the script had not yet come out. However, the script was written by him, and it was completely possible to tailor a role for Sun He.

"Forget it......" Sun He was a little moved, but hesitated for a few seconds, and finally shook his head: "I haven't acted for several years, and I can't leave this fast food restaurant." ”

Cai Zilong said leisurely: "It doesn't matter if I haven't acted for a few years, I will get back my feeling after practicing, and I won't start filming for a while anyway." As for your fast food restaurant...... I'm not looking for you to play a trick or a small role, although the male number one can't mix, but I can guarantee that it's either the male number two or the male number three. ”

"Really?" Sun He was a little unconvinced: "Male No. 2 and No. 3, this kind of role-heavy role, except for the director and producer can decide, even the assistant director does not have that right." Even if you become a director and producer, you won't be able to help me get the role of male number two and male number three, right?"

Cai Zilong said with a red face: "I didn't climb into the director and producer, but this play, I am a screenwriter, director, and even an investor, isn't it easy to tailor a male No. 2 and male No. 3 for you?"

"How can it be ......" Sun He obviously didn't believe it, although he hadn't seen it for several years, but with Cai Zilong's status at that time, no matter how he was, he couldn't get into this kind of realm in a few years.

Cai Zilong said with a smile: "It's true, believe it or not, I won't suddenly call you to tease you if I haven't seen you for a few years, right?" In addition, even if you are in business, friends are friends, and the crew is to the crew, and you are not famous." But since you are the second male and the third male, your acting skills are also good, and the salary of more than ten or two hundred thousand yuan will not be less than you. I can pay you half in advance, and you just tell me if you can act. ”

"Really?" Sun He was a little skeptical.

"Don't worry, it's not for fun. Cai Zilong was sure.

"If it's true, and the salary is more than 100,000 or 200,000, of course I'm willing to try. Sun He said truthfully: "My fast food restaurant, counting the expenses together, will earn more than 100,000 or 200,000 yuan a year, no matter how you calculate it, you won't suffer a loss." ”

"Then it's decided, get ready to be a star! Let's get in touch again, I'll contact a few more acquaintances from before. Cai Zilong said.

"Okay!"

Sun He hung up the phone a little dazed.

On the other hand, Cai Zilong felt refreshed and in a comfortable mood.

Taking a deep breath, he began to flip through the address book again, looking for acquaintances who had gotten along fairly well before.
