Chapter 4: The Ups and Downs

"Director Zhang!"

Qiao Yi couldn't help but exclaim, isn't the little old man sitting there smiling, isn't it Director Zhang? The first movie she starred in was Director Zhang's film, it can be said that Director Zhang is the first Bole in her life, but I didn't expect that after so many years, Bole is still that Bole!

"Oh, little Joe, come here." Director Zhang beckoned to Qiao Yi, his already small eyes were only a thin slit when he squinted, "I haven't seen you for so long, and I'm more mature and beautiful~"

This is the first time Director Zhang has cooperated with Ruida to make a film, because the second female has not found a suitable actor, which is also a headache for him.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Recently, I learned that you were signed with Ruida, and now I happen to have a role in my hand, so I thought of you, are you interested in giving it a try? ”

Yes, yes, yes! Naturally, there are a thousand and ten thousand interests to try.

Qiao Yi solemnly nodded in agreement, "...... Director Zhang, you can still remember me after so many years, this is my honor! I really appreciate your guidance and help to me, I will definitely give my best. "When she made a movie for the first time, Director Zhang really gave her a lot of help and encouragement on the set, which is not flattery.

In fact, no matter what role it is, Qiao Yi has always gone all out, but this time it is more challenging.

Then, Director Zhang pointed to a middle-aged man with a two-handful mustache beside him, "Xiao Qiao, this is Deputy Director Li." ”

"Hello, Deputy Director Li." Qiao Yi politely went to shake hands with him, but the other party grabbed her hand and didn't let go, which made her a little uncomfortable.

"Miss Joe is so beautiful."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Thank you. Qiao Yi said thank you a little embarrassedly, and pulled out his hand vigorously.

Director Zhang looked at his watch and asked, "Didn't Producer Shen come?" ”

Deputy Director Li immediately changed his face, and his flattering smile spread, which was really responsive, "Producer Shen has something to do temporarily, so he won't come." ”

Today is just a meeting, because they still have some other affairs to discuss, and Qiao Yi is inconvenient to disturb, so he will leave first.

"I believe that with Miss Qiao's strength, this role will definitely be ok~ I will contact Amy for specific matters and notify you when the time comes." Before leaving, Deputy Director Li "warmly reminded".

"Well, okay, thanks."

Qiao Yi is not a person who is used to being lazy, she also likes to be busy, shuttling around various sets. She also wants to have goals and pursuits to strive for, after all, she is only 24 years old, who would be content with the status quo so quickly? But the question is, how many years will it take her to spend in the big cage of Ruida?

However, after taking on the new play, there is a goal, and this time it is still quite stressful to play against He Lin.

In fact, many actors are reluctant to play against He Lin, after all, she is too popular. Because it is dwarfed, the biggest possibility is to be overshadowed in front of the actress......

But as the saying goes, newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Although Qiao Yi has been mixed for six years, her fame is no different from that of a "newborn calf", so it seems that she can relax and wait for a hearty show with the actress~

When Feng Sha heard that the female number one was played by He Lin, she was also stunned, and the child's first reaction was: "Sister Qiao, can you help me get an autograph?" I always like Sister He! ”

Although it is a company, He Lin is a "golden Buddha" of Ruida, they are not at the same level, and they usually just look at it from a distance. What's more, He Lin almost never comes to the company, so Qiao Yi's understanding of He Lin is only limited to the big screen.

It's still a bit exciting to be able to learn about idols in real life.

Thinking of this good news, in addition to talking to Feng Sha, Qiao Yi couldn't find anyone else to share, laughed at himself, and lived quite a tragic life.

For dinner, Qiao Yi simply ate two bites of vegetable salad, picked up his mobile phone, found a number, struggled again and again, and dialed it out.

This phone call has been a few years, and the other party has never answered it, and Qiao Yi just wants to try it this time.

But this time I actually took it.

"Aunt Bing...... It's me. ”

The other party didn't speak, Qiao Yi plucked up his courage, "Aunt Bing...... I want to drink your pork rib soup. ”

"Then go home and drink."

In an instant, tears broke down, but there was no choking in her voice, "Well, I'm ...... Come home for the weekend, okay? ”

"Hmm."

If the orphanage was her first home, then Aunt Bing gave her a second home, in fact, in her heart, she has always regarded Aunt Bing as her mother.

*

After another three or four days, Qiao Yi never received a call from Amy, and the artist can't interfere in many things, and more of the agent is in charge. With Amy's professional Cheng DΓΉ, I shouldn't forget about my own affairs, right?

Actually, not necessarily, Amy is so busy, and she has never taken her own affairs to heart, Qiao Yi thought, this is the agent's business, make a phone call to remind her, it should be understandable, right?

"Sister Amy, what day is the audition?"

"Audition, what audition?"

Feed! That's not right, didn't you say it before, Qiao Yi continued to remind, "The crew of "Countdown" ......"

"You don't have to come over and audition, you've already found the right person for that role."

Then, the phone hung up......

"Hey! Sister Amy! ”

Do you know how to be polite? Isn't it just an agent, making it bigger than the first line, inexplicable, and there must be a reason to kick people!

"Why the substitution?! Give me a reason. Qiao Yi dialed it again, she is easy to speak, but this does not mean that she is a soft persimmon and can be manipulated by others.

The other party's tone began to become impatient, "Qiao Yi, who do you think you are, heh, you want to play a big name, right?" Then you also look in the mirror to see if you are qualified! The crew didn't like you, so they kicked you out, are you satisfied with this reason? ”

If you ask for a reason, it's called playing a big name, Qiao Yi saw her nodding at the big names before, and she hadn't seen her so "wronged". But this is also human nature, especially in this circle, who doesn't want to climb the dragon and the phoenix. Usually when I am angry, I sprinkle it on the little actor, which is really a good way to decompress!

This is not the first time Qiao Yi has been pinched, and it is difficult to say anything because of the resources that the company is looking for. But this time it was Director Zhang who named him, and the negotiation was also very smooth, even if he was not satisfied and wanted to kick someone, he was auditioned, right? It's not that you don't even give a chance, so you say it so resolutely.

"I call you Sister Sheng, and that's because I'm polite. Please Sister Amy is busy flattering and wagging her tail and begging for mercy to the big names every day, while also improving her own moral quality, so why look at people low? ”

"You ......"

Without waiting for the other party to splash, Qiao Yi hung up the phone directly.

After some words came out, it was not an ordinary comfort, Qiao Yi felt that her ability to resist blows had risen to a new level, and at this moment she was very calm, and she had left a phone call with Director Zhang in private before.

"Hey~ Director Zhang? I'm Qiao Yi......"

Most of Ruida's artists have signed full contracts, and only a small number of them have signed some agency contracts like He Lin, so they will be more free in development.

It is forbidden for artists to take private work, and the company has clear regulations, so it is absolutely not allowed for actors to call the director privately to talk about work matters.

"I know it's a bit inappropriate to contact you like that, but ......"

Director Zhang also learned about the temporary substitution not long ago, "Xiao Qiao, I just knew about this matter, and I don't agree, but the producer's attitude is very tough...... I'll try to ...... though."

I can hear Director Zhang's tone very sorry, Qiao Yi can understand.

After all, there is more money than the sky, and the casting right is not completely in the hands of the director, and in the end, it has to pass the producer's level.

The biggest investor in this film is Ruida, it seems that he can't get around this circle.

Ruida Film and Television Building.

Qiao Yi rushed into the elevator in a huff, pressed 33, and squeezed in at the last second.

"Sister Qiao, what's wrong with you, are you in a bad mood? You're going to ......" Bongsha looked at the floor number, and her eyes were about to go, isn't this going to the president's office?!

Qiao Yi shook her hair in a chic manner, and said lightly: "That drama is blowing, my sister wants to terminate the contract with this broken place, I want to be free!" ”

Feng Sha often listens to Qiao Yi talk about the termination of the contract, but there is no time when she is as serious as today, and she goes to the president's office! Even if you want to terminate the contract, you don't run here, right?

"Sister Qiao, are you going to find ...... Mr. Ye terminated the contract? You...... Not sick, right? ”

"Stupid~ I'm serious, I can only make this matter clear to the surnamed Ye, you should know how aggrieved I have been in the past few years." It's okay not to say it, but Qiao Yi is really aggrieved when he talks about it.

Calling the president surnamed Ye, it seems that Sister Qiao's backstage is really hard and hard~

Joe ...... Sister Qiao, you better think about it again, liquidated damages, a lot! ”

"Silly, thank you, when I get out of the sea of suffering, please eat." Qiao Yi gave Fengsha a big hug and walked towards the president's office with his head held high.

If Qiao Yi was stubborn, no one would be able to stop her, and the general secretary was not there, her sudden appearance caught several small secretaries outside the president's office off guard.

"Miss......"

"Wait!"

"You're stopping me? Do you know who I am?! Qiao Yi has been running for so many years, and the bad woman has played a lot, and a fierce look and a high-flying and domineering tone really scared two of them.

Life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills.

Qiao Yi pushed the door directly in, and that scene really stained his eyes.

I saw a woman sitting on the desk with her hands tied behind her back with a tie, and a man continuing to tear her clothes, which was really intense.

"Not bad~" Qiao Yi sneered coldly.

"Ah......h

Sure enough...... Even screaming is so shy~ What is there to be shy about this little girl, why is she not so shy when she begs to be the unspoken rules?

"You go out first." The man was in his thirties, wearing rimless glasses with gold rimmed, a classic outfit of a well-dressed beast, and he straightened his clothes with a cynical expression.

"Mr. Ye~" The woman covered the [huge] breasts that were about to come out, this delicate call could simply disgust people to death. In the end, he twisted the waist of the water snake and left, and did not forget to make a eye attack on Qiao Yi.

"Mr. Ye, don't lock the door now? I think Ye Gongzi is engaged, it is better to clean himself up, so as not to make the old man of your family angry again. ”

Ye Yu habitually held the glasses on the bridge of his nose and buttoned the buttons of his shirt one by one. It's like nothing happened just now, "The old man of my family, isn't it your family?" Anyway, Miss Qiao has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. ”

The last thing Qiao Yi wants in his life is to have a relationship with the surname Ye, "I can't afford to climb high." ”

To exaggerate, half of the female artists in this company, Ye Yu has slept with them. After all, this kind of thing, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and I don't know how harmonious it is.

Everyone in the company knows that Mr. Ye's fiancΓ©e has the most "green" on her head.

"The new play I took was cut by you, right?!"

Ye Yu simply asked the secretary to bring a pot of tea, sat on the sofa face to face with Qiao Yi, poured her a cup of tea and moved over.

Is this to be a casual conversation? Qiao Yi was not in the mood.

"I asked for a replacement." Ye Yu admitted very simply, and sneered: "Good sister, do you want to be popular?" My brother knows a lot of directors and producers, if you make them cool, they will be on top~ Isn't your mother the best at these? I guess you're not bad, right? ”

Bastard.

Qiao Yi picked up the teacup and splashed Ye Yu on his face, only hating that the tea was warm, and he couldn't burn off the skin of this scumbag! "You're disgusting, whoever likes to play this play will act, I'm here to terminate the contract today."

Ye Yu took out a tissue and wiped the tea on his face, "Three million liquidated damages, when you can take it out, my brother will terminate the contract for you." Otherwise, you can stay here for me, which is what the old man meant. ”

Stay here, be trampled under their feet for the rest of your life.

"Ye Yu, you wait, I will definitely terminate the contract, I, Qiao Yi, have nothing to do with your Ye family!"

Qiao Yi endured his anger and walked all the way to the elevator entrance.

Feng Sha was still waiting there, pulling her neck and looking around, she saw that Sister Qiao actually came out unscathed, but her face was a little ugly, "Sister Qiao...... You ...... solution"

How can you ask this, come up and ask if the termination was successful? It seems a little out of place.

"Silly, you don't have to follow me in the future, I won't come to the company in the future."

"Sister, did you really terminate the contract? Are you alright......"

If she can really terminate the contract, thank God, three million, she doesn't eat or drink and doesn't have so much money. Since they don't like each other, they don't get along with each other when they die old, and their Ye family is a bunch of perverts who take pleasure in torturing people.

Feng Sha saw that Qiao Yi was not in a very good state, and insisted on sending her home, "Sister Qiao, as long as you haven't terminated the contract with the company, I will be your little assistant." If you don't mind, I'll always be your friend. ”

"Silly, why are you moving me so much! I know...... Go back, don't make your wife wait. ”

Qiao Yi lay flat on the bed, his arms resting behind his head, staring at the ceiling stupidly.

What is it sad about? Haven't all these years passed, is she Qiao Yi so easy to defeat, she can't beat Xiaoqiang. If it really doesn't work, then wait for another three years, and the contract will expire after three years, and the sky will be high again.

It's just that the best years of my life have been spent in Ruida, and I am really bitter.

The phone rang, a string of unfamiliar numbers, her private number is rarely called, eighty percent is wrong, but she still answered.

"Hello?"

"Hello, is that Miss Qiao?"

A rich baritone, Qiao Yi couldn't tell who it was, "Hello, may I ask if you are ......"

"I'm Deputy Director Li, the crew of "Countdown", we met before."

Saying this, Qiao Yi remembered that the squinting Deputy Director Li estimated that he would not be pure, and immediately became vigilant.

"Well, hello ......"

"Miss Qiao, is it convenient to meet now? Discuss questions about roles. ”

But that role has not been replaced, Qiao Yi is very suspicious, especially in the entertainment industry, she has to guard against it. So he politely refused: "Deputy Director Li, I'm really sorry, our company stipulates that actors can't meet with the director in private, what's the matter, please contact my agent, okay?" ”

I just tore up with my agent today......

"I took the liberty of it, but it was actually Director Zhang who asked me to call you, otherwise I wouldn't know your private mobile phone. Well, I'll call Amy and talk about it. ”

If Director Zhang asked him to call, he could explain, "Well, I'm sorry." ”

"It's okay, Director Zhang and Producer Shen are here, and there are some actors in the same group, you just come here to get familiar with it."

Qiao Yi can't understand this, isn't this already yellow?

After a while, Amy sent a text message with an address and room number from a clubhouse.

Qiao Yi wanted to call and ask, but after thinking about it, forget it, she can't quarrel with Amy now.

Director Zhang said that he wanted to fight for a role for himself, maybe, it was a good news~
