Chapter 149: Changing the Play
That night, Li Lin handed over the song he wrote for Yang Hao and Zhang Huimei to Shen Meng, and then sent Zhang Shaohan away with a song.
The name of the song is "Invisible Wings".
The song "Invisible Wings" is a song that gives people hope, warmth and stability, it is very suitable for Zhang Shaohan with a penetrating voice to sing, and in Li Lin's previous life, Zhang Shaohan did sing the taste of this song, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao were shocked when they heard it for the first time.
And in Li Lin's previous life, this song should be sung and sung, and it should be word-of-mouth, which is just right for Zhang Shaohan to use it to fire the first shot.
"Okay, you, there are still so many good songs hidden." As soon as Shen Meng returned to the company, she found a musician hired by the company and handed over these songs to him for evaluation, but the musician was shocked when she tasted them, and then she called Li Lin's mobile phone, "How many songs are left, hand them over together, so that I don't trouble you." ”
"And many, many songs." Li Lin smiled.
"What? And many, many more songs? Shen Meng drooled on the other end of the phone, she felt that the time for the big development of the gold medal record company was coming.
Mr. Yang and her connections plus Li Lin's songs are a match made in heaven.
She has fantasized that the company will continue to launch new talents, then occupy the market, and eventually defeat the top record companies and dominate the entire Chinese music scene.
And she will also be promoted and raised, become a general manager, become a CEO, marry a rich and handsome, and become a winner in life.
"Then hurry up and give me the song!"
"It's all in my head!" Li Lin smiled like a weasel who stole a chicken, very treacherous. "I'll write when I get the inspiration."
"Cut, there is no emotion!" Shen Meng's dream was shattered, and he immediately rolled his eyes at Li Lin. But it's a pity that she and Li Lin talked on the phone, so this eye roll was thrown to the blind man.
Li Lin was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "I just got a reminder from a friend that someone wants to change my play." ”
"Who?" Shen Meng immediately got serious, "Did you offend people in the crew?" Is it the director or the investor? Or is it a big-name actor in the crew? ”
Shen Meng said three possibilities in one breath.
The director, the investor, and the big-name actor are all very powerful and status people in the crew. Only they have the right to change the play.
"Wang Gang." Li Lin said: "A supporting actor like me, the actor of Song Yuanqiao, is said to have a relationship with the investor. ”
"In addition, I suspect that Yan Minqiu can intervene in it."
"I see." Shen Mengxin calculated. "I'll let Mr. Yang check it, but don't hope for the company."
"Although Mr. Yang's family is an investor, it is not so easy to check if it is separated by a layer."
Shen Meng was a little helpless.
All of her connections are in the music world. And Mr. Yang's relationship is extensive. But there are big limitations, and that's the sadness of small companies.
"But you don't have to worry, if the director wants to cut your role, he will definitely contact the screenwriter, we just need to keep an eye on the screenwriter."
"That's all there is to it." Li Lin nodded.
Because this "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" adopts other versions of the location, the crew does not need to leave Huairou to shoot, and the filming is quite easy.
Li Lin's role in Song Qingshu has not increased or decreased, there are all that should be there and there are no things that should not be. The director doesn't seem to take special care of him, but it doesn't seem to be as Alyssa Jia said. Cut his role.
Gradually, he put Jia Jingwen's words behind him, and began to devote himself wholeheartedly to acting, exercising his singing voice every morning, and other times in addition to his own acting, he watched the acting of other actors, figured out their acting skills, and absorbed experience bit by bit.
It is said that actual combat is the best teacher, Li Lin now agrees with this sentence very much, at least during this period of time, he feels that he has grown up very quickly, and many things that he didn't understand before have suddenly become clear after personal experience.
"What a nice newcomer." Lai Shuiqing completely sees Li Lin's progress, if Li Lin, who just came here to act, is just a complete newcomer who relies on special skills to substitute the plot characters, then the current Li Lin is a newcomer who has been initially promoted.
I believe that as long as Li Lin is given five or six years, Li Lin will become an old actor with superb acting skills.
"It's a big shame that you didn't pull him into your company." Lai Shuiqing said to his old friend Yan Minqiu: "To be honest, he is very different from ordinary singers. ”
"Ordinary singers act in TV dramas out of the idea of making money and accumulating popularity."
"They generally can't endure hardship, and they don't spend a lot of time sharpening their acting skills, for them, it's better to watch other people's acting skills on the set than to go outside and take on some commercial performances or commercials."
"But Li Lin is different, in addition to practicing in the morning, he mixes on the set every day, not only to hone his acting skills on the stage, but also to figure out other people's acting skills."
"He is a qualified actor, and in the near future, he can at least enter the first-line actor, and with his identity as a singer, he can even gain popularity no less than that of the TV emperor or even the actor."
"I know it." Yan Minqiu was helpless and smiled bitterly, "I know everything you said, and it is precisely because I am optimistic that I extended an olive branch." ”
"But he signed with his record company, and it was a film and television contract, I really can't understand it."
Records, film and television, have always been signed separately, any artist who is interested in the all-round development of film and television songs will sign a contract separately, one is that there is a specialization in the art industry, the focus of the record company and the film and television company is different, and the connections are naturally different.
A large record company can't even compare with a medium-sized film and television company in terms of connections in the film and television industry, and even those top record companies may not have more than a film and television company in terms of network resources in the film and television industry, unless the record company is a giant across film and television songs.
Second, it is also the truth that eggs are not put in one basket.
Lai Shuiqing was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Maybe his record company forced him to sign a contract?" ”
The record forces singers to sign contracts, and then uses the popularity of the signed singers to star in idol dramas to make money, which is not uncommon in the entertainment industry.
"No matter what the facts are, it doesn't change the fact that I can't sign him." Yan Minqiu is also very entangled, such a good seedling is here, and it seems that she is also very likely to take her under her banner.
But liquidated damages are a big problem.
Although she has been in the film and television industry for many years, and has played a lot of supporting roles and roles, she has never had much money, and her company is just a leather bag company, and it is good that she can barely maintain the balance of payments, and there is not much surplus at all.
It is almost impossible to pay Li Lin's liquidated damages.
"Wang Gang has always asked me to change his role and reduce his role." Lai Shuiqing said suddenly.
Yan Minqiu sneered when he heard this, "His little supporting role is really long enough." ”
In front of her, what kind of thing is Wang Gang? is also specialized in playing supporting roles, she entered the industry earlier than Wang Gang I don't know how many years, in terms of qualifications and connections, Wang Gang is not as good as her at all, and even she had to plan well in advance to change Li Lin's play, a small Wang Gang actually asked to change the role directly, which was simply giving her a look.
"He's an investor." Lai Shuiqing took out a cigarette and swallowed the clouds for a while before he spoke: "But I can withstand the people on the investor side, the question is whether you want to change Li Lin's play." ”
"If you want to, I'll change it; If you don't want to, I'll refuse! ”
Lai Shuiqing and Yan Minqiu are old friends, and he also has the heart to help Yan Minqiu, otherwise the exterminator who did not appear many times in the script would not have added so many scenes.
And the reason why he didn't agree or refuse Wang Gang's request was that he wanted to listen to Yan Minqiu's opinion.
"There's no need to change the play." Yan Min asked Lai Shuiqing not to change the play without even thinking about it, "Li Lin is not a pure actor, he is still a singer, and the restrictions on the role do not have much effect at all." ”
"And there are investors standing behind him, so you probably don't want to face the blame of investors!"
How could Lai Shuiqing, an old friend, give her the idea of venting her evil anger, but she can't make it difficult for Lai Shuiqing, after all, Li Lin is not easy to provoke, whether it is popularity or investor background, it can be said that he plays a pivotal role independent of directors and big-name actors.
If Lai Shuiqing insists on cutting Li Lin's role, the backlash will be very troublesome, not to mention anything else, just saying that the investor is a little stuck in the time when the funds arrive is enough to make Director Lai Shuiqing unable to eat and walk around, so if there is no need, she doesn't want Lai Shuiqing to provoke Li Lin.
"Since this is the case, I will refuse Wang Gang." Lai Shuiqing said it lightly, and he didn't take Wang Gang in his eyes at all.
But think about it, no matter how cheerful Wang Gang is, but after all, he is just a supporting actor who is not very popular, in the crew, Lai Shuiqing dared to catch his mistake is a burst of angry scolding, and similarly, outside the play, he also dared to refuse Wang Gang's request.
In fact, if it weren't for his ambiguous attitude all the time, I'm afraid Wang Gang wouldn't dare to jump so happily.
After all, Wang Gang was also afraid of being slapped to death.
"Not only to refuse Wang Gang, but also to add drama to Li Lin." Yan Min begged: "He is a good seedling, and he may not go to the road of an actor in the future." ”
"Pull him now, and the benefits in the future will be very considerable."
"Let me think about it." Lai Shuiqing rubbed his temples, he was naturally willing to pull the young man, but he was a little reluctant to change the play in order to pull the young man.
There are so many funds for TV dramas, adding drama to one person will inevitably reduce the drama of another person, and this requires the consent of the editor and the investor, and no one knows the ink and trouble of the investor better than him. (To be continued......)
