188 fish against the current
After a two-hour car ride, Zhang Ge finally arrived at the crew, this is his third crew this year, and the role is also the best one. In the first two crews, he was just playing tricks, taking the kind of tricks that have a few lines or can't survive an episode.
With his performance in the movie "First Close Contact", he received an invitation from a film crew and successfully passed the audition, and he will play the second male lead. He cherishes the opportunity in front of him, and he is a little nervous about working with a star, although he is a star himself, he is still nervous.
The filming location of the crew is in a county town, and the treatment is not good. He didn't complain about these, just stayed and waited patiently for the shooting.
Three days later, he finally met the hero and heroine, both of whom were stars who appeared on the screen at any time. The actor Wang Kai also shook hands with him enthusiastically, and finally the heroine Xue Li glanced at Zhang Ge casually, Zhang Ge had also seen such a scene, and it was over with a smile. Less than a minute after meeting, Xue Li began to toss, the reason was that the accommodation was too poor. Zhang Ge smashed the house, as far as he knew, this was already the best hotel in the county, and Xue Li lived better than the director.
Well, from the beginning, he didn't have a good impression of this crew, the director laughed at Mimi, but the city government is very deep, and the producer has financial power and the director is not so compatible. Coupled with the intrigue of the people below, it is very awkward in such a crew, but for the sake of the second male lead, these can be endured.
Filming has finally started, and the past few days have been filming the drama of the protagonists Wang Kai and Xue Li, because they have precious time and the next film is waiting for them. Xue Li is purely a vase, with no acting skills and a very bad temper, Wang Kai is very approachable and has very good acting skills, Zhang Ge will occasionally go over to ask for advice.
Today, my own drama was NG several times, and it was not because Xue Li was not in a state at all, and the director had nowhere to end the shooting. Xue Li left expressionlessly, which made Zhang Ge completely speechless, he had never seen such a big heart.
He doesn't like it at all, there's no human touch. However, for his dream of stardom, he is still conscientious, memorizes his lines seriously, and acts in every play seriously.
……
Jiang Wen has encountered a lot of troubles in the past few days, first of all, her contract with the company expires in a month, and the company has asked her to re-sign with the company several times. However, when she saw the contract given by the company, she instantly had the urge to tear it up, and the contract period was four years and the liquidated damages were 3 million......
Seeing that in the end, she finally couldn't stand it anymore, so she euphemistically said that she would think about it. Soon the revised contract was handed to her again, and she looked at it and put it in her bag.
The mobile phone rang, and when I saw that it was the director of the crew, she hesitated for a while when she thought of the fat pig-like director, but she still connected "Hello Director"!
"Receive investors at the Yanjing Hotel at 5 p.m., don't be late. These rich people have a lot to do with whether or not we can shoot a TV series, and as long as they are happy, it doesn't matter."
"I'm sorry director, I'm not in Yanjing now, I'm going back to my hometown, and I won't be in Yanjing until tomorrow afternoon. ”
"I don't care if I have to go to the Yanjing Hotel before five o'clock this afternoon, Xiaowen, this opportunity is rare. I'm also looking for you to be an old man in the company, otherwise I would definitely go to someone else. ”
"Thank you director for your appreciation, but unfortunately I really can't come. You'd better change someone, I'm not good at signal here, I'll hang up first!"
Putting down the phone, Jiang Wen was a little entangled, such entertainment in the entertainment industry is indispensable at all, but it is not as dark as everyone thinks. But Jiang Wen just can't do this, this kind of entertainment can be pushed, but it can't be pushed back, you can drink but definitely not much. So she has always been tepid in the company, and if she hadn't had acting skills, she wouldn't have been able to stay for a long time.
The advantage of joining the company is that the company has connections and resources, so it is easier than you to work alone. And there are many opportunities in the company, so of course everyone has to choose the actors of their own company when they work together. However, there are also disadvantages to joining the company, first of all, the company gets the lion's share, which is linked to personal fame. Secondly, the company has strict regulations, and these regulations limit celebrity artists to the company, or are tied to the company.
On the whole, it is still more disdainful than profitable, but if there is no economic company, it will be difficult for you to move an inch in the entertainment industry. Many artists are now joining the company, and although the conditions are harsh, they are much better than individuals. And at a certain time, you can be independent, and then open a studio to be your own boss, and you can also open a company if you have the ability. However, there are many artists who open companies and go out of business, but the studio is still impressive.
It was another finale banquet, and Jiang Wen had forgotten that this was the first finale banquet she had participated in. is over preparing for the TV series, if she hasn't signed a contract yet, there will be no more resources from the company in the future.
The fat director walked over, "Jiang Wen, I've been calling you for a long time, why are you in a daze." Come over and salute the producer and the bosses with a glass of wine, and everyone will have the opportunity to cooperate again in the future. ”
Jiang Wen walked over with a smile, and toasted a few big bosses with a glass of wine very enthusiastically, life is like a drama all depends on acting skills, acting is her strength. The gods left satisfied, leaving the crew to eat and drink together, and Jiang Wen sat alone in a daze.
The fat director walked over, "Jiangwen asked me to ask you, but what do you think about the contract?" If there is something you are not satisfied with, you can speak up and the company can consider it at its discretion. ”
"Director Li, you are the old man of the company, you should know the company's contract, I won't talk about the specifics, I still have to consider this contract, and I will give the company an answer before the contract ends." ”
The fat director sighed, "I know you're not happy with me, you're not happy with the company." But there is no way to do this, the reality is like this, if you don't adapt to it then you will be eliminated. The last thing that is lacking in today's society is talent, and what is lacking is opportunity. You are unlucky, if you are in a big company, then you will definitely be popular, because you have acting skills and strength. But if you don't take the initiative to adapt to such a small company, it will be like this for the rest of your life, because the company can give you a limited stage and you have to pay a huge price. ”
"Think about it and make a serious decision. Because you can't stand the toss anymore, if you don't work hard, you will fall behind. ”
It was the first time Jiang Wen had seen this dead fat man have such a side, although he said it politely, but the truth is like this. I really have to think about whether to continue to sign with this company or look for an opportunity, or to find another company and start over.
When the manager of the artist department coldly refused his request, Jiang Wen's heart was already cold. She already understands that the company is on top and that she is the fish to the slaughter.
She didn't hesitate to pack up her things and leave the company directly, and when she saw the face of the manager of the artist department, she suddenly felt a little happy. When she walked out of the company, she found that she was much more relaxed, and she was a free person from today onwards.
"Well, take a few days off and think about the future, whether to go it alone or find a company to join. "In the end, I decided to try my luck alone, and it didn't matter if I had a chance or not. It's a big deal that you don't want to be an actor, take out your savings over the years to do something, and you can open a small shop at the worst.
Where is not life, why let yourself live so depressed!
