Early in the morning, the cleaning aunt of the Internet café came to clean up, Xu Hao was woken up by the sound of dragging a chair, and looked at the smart watch on his wrist, which showed that the time was half past seven in the morning. Rubbing his eyes, Xu Hao got up from the chair, his shoulders against the back of the chair overnight, sore and sore.

Fortunately, I am young, my body is good, and I dilute the feeling of soreness by slightly expanding my chest.

The computers have been turned off, and the night is from 10 to 7 o'clock. Aunt Cleaning was also about to clean here, Xu Hao ran to the toilet to soak in urine, then put on a shoulder bag, picked up the suitcase and walked out of the Eight Immortals Internet Cafe. At a steamed bun shop diagonally opposite the Internet café, I drank a bowl of porridge and ate a few siu mai.

In this way, a new day in Hengdian began.

Seeing that the time was not too early, Xu Hao called Ma Jun: "Brother Ma, have you gotten up?" ”

"Oh, Xu Hao, come over first, I'm getting ready."

Xu Hao rushed to Ma Jun's rented room, put the box and backpack inside, waited for Ma Jun to wash his face, lock the door, and then go to find a house together.

Ma Jun has a battery car, which looks like it is about to fall apart, and the speed is okay. Carry Xu Hao from the side of Yatang Village, along the medical road, Wan. At the beginning of Shengnan Street, I looked for Denglong Road, Qingming Shanghetu Road and other places, and asked a lot of houses for rent.

"Here in Hengdian, there are only a few kinds of houses going back and forth. A single room with a bed, and the bathroom outside, are about 200 yuan; For multiple bathrooms or cabinets, at least 300 yuan; There is also a water heater and a table like mine, which is not available for 350. If you are really rich, you can pick one with electrical appliances, multiple air conditioners or multiple TVs, and see that they are all 500 yuan upwards. ”

Stop and go, and when it was eleven o'clock at noon, Ma Jun took Xu Hao into a small restaurant and ordered two dishes and two bottles of beer: "I ran all morning, you also saw it, no house is better than mine." In addition to having to pay one and pay three, they are much stronger than other houses, and I am also cheaper than your rent for three months, 300 a month is not much. ”

"Not much." Xu Hao nodded, Ma Jun took him for a run, basically he knew the rental situation here in Hengdian. It's not that there is no better rent than Xu Hao's, but the price is definitely very expensive, and compared with each other, Ma Jun's house is more advantageous.

"Otherwise, you really want to rent, and I'm in a hurry to change hands, I'll make you cheaper. A thousand yuan, I will transfer the contract to you, in addition, I will leave you two benches, I still have an arm strength machine and two dumbbells in my cabinet, I will also leave it to you, how about it? ”

Ma Jun really wants to get rid of it.

Xu Hao was grateful to him for accompanying him to find a house in the morning, and the house was indeed not bad, so he finally nodded: "Okay, a thousand yuan, I rented it." ”

"Okay, I'll pack up my things after dinner, and you can move here."

After settling down, Ma Jun completely relaxed, eating roast chicken and leek eggs, drinking Tsingtao beer, and talking about the matters that need to be paid attention to in Hengdian, which is considered a reminder.

"As an actor in Hengdian, the most important thing must be to report the play, you can look good, and you are not short, so it should be no problem to report the play. Now the whole society is impetuous, everyone looks at your appearance, and no one has time to understand your heart, your personality, etc. So I usually have to dress with temperament, this is an era of looking at faces, and this is a way to report dramas. ”

"Another is that the old man leads the newcomer, the system of extras here in Hengdian is very sound, and the union has eight actor agents, all of whom have gone out to BJ Film Academy (Nortel) for further study. However, they generally only bring special appointments, and the masses and groups are handed over to large groups of headbands. ”

"There are two or three small team leaders under the big group leader, if you are familiar with these small team leaders and get online, there must be a lot of announcements, basically every day."

"Also, add more QQ groups and WeChat groups, many group leaders don't have enough manpower. For example, a play requires 50 people, and only 30 brothers are often followed by the group leader, so it is easier to send the remaining 20 places to the group. ”

"But you're just here now, and you definitely don't know a lot of big group leaders and small team leaders, you can ask for some group leaders and team leader numbers, and I also have some here, you can copy a copy. When your actor license is issued, you can call them. Under normal circumstances, the big group leader will say that I don't report the drama here, and ask you to call the number of the small team leader, and there are also large group leaders who will say, okay, you send a text message to pass your information over, or the small team leader will pay attention to you, and next time there are not enough people, they will look for you. ”

"But it's not enough to just get online, you have to work your own, and the most important thing is, don't be lazy. Don't report your name, you won't go when the time comes, the group leader hates this the most, and may blacklist you on the spot, some ruthlessly, or even complain directly to the trade union, and the union may revoke your actor certificate. ”

"When you are familiar with these, you can consider running a special contract or a group, if you have a path or a professional graduate, you can directly run a special contract. However, for a wild road like ours, you still have to go through a period of observation before you can understand the shooting process, how to move, how to look at the camera position, all kinds of blocking the light, how to take the props, how to use them, and when to use what expressions. ”

"On our side, there are a lot of people who come out of the group performance who are not professionals, although they can't be big stars, but there are many people who play a famous person. I know a person named Zhan Guosheng, when he used to come to Hengdian, everyone scolded him for being stupid, and he was playing with his life when he filmed the masses, do you know the result? ”

Ma Jun paused.

Xu Hao immediately asked very cooperatively: "How?" ”

"He became an assistant director in three months!"

"The assistant director in three months? So awesome? ”

"Well, but he is lucky, because he is honest, the crew arranged for the old actor Liu Tianxi to be an assistant, laundry, cooking, serving tea and pouring water, and even brushing the toilet. Later, Wang Lei, the producer of "Four Youths in the New Beijing", went to Liu Tianxi's house to play, and thought he was good, so he accepted him as an apprentice and pulled him to the crew as an assistant director. ”

"Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared." Xu Hao sighed with envy.

Ma Jun nodded, and added sourly: "That's also his luck." ”

"By the way, Brother Ma, didn't the group performance of the horizontal drift become a big star?"

"This, it doesn't seem to be true, it should be said that the drama is different." Ma Jun thought for a while and said, "Actually, if you have been here for a long time, you can understand that it is not ordinary difficult to become famous." Which star is there now, either has a background, or has a relationship, or he goes through the back door, which is different from before, and now he can't sleep. ”

"Isn't it, then there's a chance to get a fart?"

"It can't be said that there is absolutely none, maybe the next star will be you, and besides, it doesn't work before going on stage, it doesn't mean that you can't go behind the scenes. In the past, a group leader of Hengdian Group, named Ge Hanzhi, is now the vice president of Great Wall Film and Television, obediently, no matter how many TV series are produced, the stars are three points shorter when they see it. There are also many group performances, all of which are mixed with the selection of role directors and assistant directors of various crews. In short, every opportunity is different. ”

The two of them chatted about the story of Hengdian like this, drank beer, and drank six bottles of beer in a short time.

"I can't drink anymore, I'm going to get to the car after packing my things in the afternoon. Boss, calculate how much. Ma Jun beckoned to the restaurant owner.

Xu Hao hurriedly took his hand and said, "I'll invite you this time." ”

"You please? What are you doing so politely? Ma Jun estimated that he was just taking advantage of the situation to make a gesture, and he didn't really have the idea of paying money, and when Xu Hao came out, he sat down and picked his teeth with a toothpick.

Xu Hao paid, eighty-seven for a meal, and the boss gave two yuan for free, which was eighty-five.

……

After eating, Ma Jun rode his tattered battery car, picked up Xu Hao, and went to the Agricultural Bank. Xu Hao didn't have enough money in his pocket, so he had to take out a little bit from the card and make up a thousand. Back at the rental house, Ma Jun handed over the contract to Xu Hao and wrote a power of attorney, which roughly means that he transferred his rental house to Xu Hao, and this is evidence.

Xu Hao didn't understand the contract, but Ma Jun then called the landlord, and the landlord agreed, so Xu Hao relieved himself and handed over a thousand yuan to Ma Jun.

Ma Jun packed up quickly, and called a motorcycle to pull the luggage, and at about half past twelve o'clock in the afternoon, it was ready.

"Xiao Xu, the house is handed over to you, I'm leaving."

"Brother Ma walks slowly."

"Well, immediately you can take a taxi to the union to apply for a temporary residence permit, and I won't accompany you."

"It's okay, I'll just take a taxi."

"That's okay, that's it, I wish you a speedy fame in Hengdian."

"Haha, it has to be."

In this way, the old wandering horse army left here in a hurry. Looking at the empty single room, with only beds, tables, cabinets, and benches, Xu Hao suddenly sighed. Regardless of his actions, he came to Hengdian to find his dreams, and he was a little shaken.

Hengdian, hundreds of film and television dramas across the country are filmed here every year, and countless actors set sail from here every year to become famous. However, it is never the group of people who are drifting sideways, not these dead bodies with no names, dead corpses lying without identity, and group actors with or without a camera.

Ma Jun has been mixed up for a year or two, and he is still running the crowd, and there are more of them, and there are tens of thousands of registered actors in the actors' union alone, and there are thousands of people living in Hengdian.

With the development of Hengdian, Beipiao actors have also poured in, relying on old experience and old qualifications, to seize a lot of new Hengpiao resources. Moreover, most of the students in Beipiao are graduates of film and television colleges, with majors and good foundations.

In addition, actors from SH, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Shenzhen-Hong Kong are also flocking to Hengdian. Hengdian is indeed developing rapidly, and there is a great demand for extras, but so many competitors have come over, directly leading the newcomer group, and the upside has been squeezed by Yanzhòng.

"Can I get out of Hengdian?"

Xu Hao stared at the posters on the wall, except for Wu Meiniang's stills, the rest are star posters, including Andy Lau, Jay Chou, Liu Yifei, Ma Jun likes a lot of stars.

"One day, can I have my own poster and be put on the wall by my own fans?"

"I don't know."

"However, how can you know the future without trying! I, Xu Hao, am not Ma Jun, and if others can't get ahead, it doesn't mean that I can't get ahead! Sooner or later, I want to become famous, Ma Gobi, Lao Tzu didn't come to Hengdian to watch stars, Lao Tzu wanted to be a big star himself! ”

Wow, Xu Hao hummed while reaching out and tearing off all the posters of Andy Lau, Jay Chou, and Liu Yifei, rather than looking at others dazzling all day long, it is better to look at the white wall. However, as soon as his hand touched Wu Meiniang's poster, he suddenly stopped again, this still of Fan Ye is really eye-catching.

"Master Fan, for the sake of the two balls, I'll keep you."
