"It was then. But now that several companies as big as us have sent auditions, what am I waiting for? Cao Xiaojun pressed his anger and said, "If you think like you, can I, the manager of the entertainment and personnel department, still sit down?" Waiting for others to come over every day, when will it be? ”

"What kind of person is worth what kind of hand, you can't understand this, you will never be able to take my position!" Cao Xiaojun hates that iron does not become steel.

Liang Ren's lips squirmed for a long time before he whispered, "This kid ...... Anyway, you're a newcomer, so it's worth calling in person? ”

Cao Xiaojun looked at him coldly for a long time, and his back was sweating when he saw it, so he said with a smile, "It seems that you have nothing to do with my position." ”

He took the phone from Liang Ren and said, "Finally, I will teach you a trick, think about your own resources before doing things." ”

He raised the phone, "We have cooperated with Lin Xiao, and we have his direct contact information, which is our most important resource." ”

"It's okay, you go out first."

Liang Ren was inexplicably reprimanded and went out depressed.

Cao Xiaojun looked at the number on his mobile phone, and he was also a little depressed.

He hasn't thought about it, what attitude to use to talk to Lin Xiao, be majestic? Or continue to play the emotional card?

After a long time, he pressed his phone.

It rang a few times, and the phone was actually hung up!

It seems that the other party does not answer strange calls. He suddenly had a ghost fire in his belly, and he was the manager of the big department of Chinese entertainment, but he was hung up by a newcomer?

Something that hasn't happened in years! In China Entertainment, the second-tier red stars have to nod and say hello when they see him, who dares to hang up his phone?! He was so angry that he wanted to drop the phone to the ground, but he held back and sent a text message explaining his identity.

After a minute, I called again, and the other party picked it up.

"Mr. Cao." Lin Xiao's voice came from the phone, "I didn't know it was your call just now, I'm sorry." ”

"Those who don't know are not guilty, it doesn't matter." The moment the phone was connected, Cao Xiaojun suppressed all the anger in his belly, and said with a smile, "Mr. Lin is difficult to invite now." Zhongyu's auditions are not good. ”

Lin Xiao smiled, "If it's an audition, there's no need for Mr. Cao to call in person, right?" With your identity, China Entertainment can call anyone at will. Besides, just call my agent. ”

"Mr. Lin is really a cheerful person, and I won't go around in circles." Cao Xiaojun snorted and said, "I'll just say it directly, if Mr. Lin is willing to come to China Entertainment, the conditions are for you to open, not to mention the 500,000 liquidated damages, everyone knows that it is not true." Only Liang Ren would believe it. I sincerely invite Mr. Lin, and I hope that Mr. Lin will reply to me sincerely. ”

On the other side of the phone, Lin Xiao also restrained his smile.

The name Cao Xiaojun, he has heard more than once, most of the managers of China Entertainment can be described as the power of the government and the opposition, belonging to the core of the second layer of the pyramid, looking at the entire China Entertainment Group, there are definitely no more than fifteen real power factions like him, and further up, it is the top of the pyramid, which can be directly linked to CCTV.

Last time, Cao Xiaojun just asked Liang Ren to invite him, but this time, the other party actually called him personally, indicating that he had received 100% attention from the other party, and he couldn't help but be cautious.

Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't speak, Cao Xiaojun thought that the other party needed to know a little practical sweetness first, thought for a while and said, "Since Mr. Lin still has concerns, then I'll talk about the conditions that China Entertainment can prescribe first." If Mr. Lin is willing to come to Zhongyu, we will sign a five-year contract with you, and you are almost past the first year, so you should know that a five-year contract is very convenient. Many artists sign for six or seven years. ”

"And during this period, we will write that we will never refrigerate you, and ensure that at least two big dramas that are expected to impact CCTV will start filming every year. Of course, provided that your level does not slip in the case. ”

When Cao Xiaojun finished speaking, Lin Xiao himself was moved.

The other party did not urge him to reply immediately, but said with a smile, "Mr. Lin, good birds choose trees to perch, you have to think about it." ”

"No matter how rich Huaxia is, his status in the film and television industry is not as good as the deep-rooted China Entertainment, and some of the films of China Entertainment are qualified to impact CCTV, and I sit in this position, I have the right of priority recommendation, and even the right to name names. I believe that with my old face, if Mr. Lin is willing to come to Huaxia, it will not be a problem to win the best actor within three years. ”

After Cao Xiaojun finished speaking, he didn't speak again, with his own condition, even the first-line red stars will be heartbeat, and the manager of the acting and personnel department personally praised the artist, not to mention the steady progress, but the time for Bai Rì to soar will never last.

He could even guess the struggle in the other party's heart now, and waited for the other party to nod in agreement.

But Lin Xiao's next sentence immediately shattered his wonderful fantasy.

"Mr. Cao, this condition is really generous. However, the liquidated damages for me and Huaxia are 10 million. ”

What is this unfolding? What about the struggles that are good? What about the hesitation to say yes?

Cao Xiaojun's cheeks twitched a few times, it was only less than a second, and the other party rejected him immediately without thinking about it? A personal invitation from a big name in Chinese entertainment, and he refused it without even thinking about it?

It's illogical!

His face and self-confidence were both damaged, and he suddenly thought of the key point of the sentence just now.

"Ten million?!" He was also taken aback, and then immediately sank his face, "Mr. Lin, do you think we are not sincere enough?" Is it necessary to come up with such an obvious lie? ”

"Mr. Cao, I admit that what I said to Manager Liang last time was a lie, but this time it is definitely the truth. I'm sure you can get a copy of the contract that Liang Ren can't get, just look at it. Lin Xiao smiled bitterly, "Just after he came last time, the company changed the contract." ”

Cao Xiaojun was stunned, and only after a while did he grit his teeth and scolded, "This thing is not enough to succeed and more to lose!" ”

There was a brief silence on both ends of the phone, and Lin Xiao broke the silence first, "Mr. Cao, what about the audition?" ”

Cao Xiaojun sighed, and said gloomily, "The twisted melon is not sweet, since the contract is like this, there is no way." There will be a chance to cooperate next time. ”

"Thank you, Cao, for your understanding."

hung up the phone, both sides sighed, Cao Xiaojun was sorry, Lin Xiao was happy.

It's a pity that the famous device can't be used by me, but fortunately it didn't enter the blacklist of China Entertainment.

The next day, he went to several other places where he had called, and without exception, the other party sent a lineup that could be said to be serious.

Of course, the result is a rejection.

After running for a day, when he was just about to rest, CAMI's Soul Chaser CALL called.

"Done?"

"It's over." Lin Xiao lay on the bed and looked at the book, and said absentmindedly, "I've run three companies, it's too tiring to talk to them, next time you can help me refuse, just say that the schedule is wrong." ”

"Speaking of which, I'm going to ask you, what are your plans next, have you read the script I picked for you?"

"I flipped it over. Nothing too bright, and I've already chosen a crew. ”

"Why didn't you tell me?" CAMI was on fire: "I'll help you pick whether it's suitable or not!" ”

"REST ASSURED, SISTER CAMI, THIS IS NOT A CCTV DRAMA, AND THERE ARE NO OLD DRAMA BONES, BUT IT IS QUITE SUITABLE FOR ME."

CAMI was anxious, "Don't forget the route you set, such a film, if you look at it according to the standards of the Kangxi Dynasty, it is a bad movie!" He wasn't allowed to go no matter how high the price was! Aren't you lowering your value? ”

"If I pass the audition, I'll show you the script again, and that's it, I'll hang up." NOT WANTING TO LISTEN TO CAMI'S NAGGING, HE QUICKLY HUNG UP THE PHONE, AND YOU CAN IMAGINE CAMI'S FACE OVER THERE.

Of course, he won't tell the other party that such a TV series with little investment, not a gorgeous lineup, and a director who is not yet famous has unexpectedly won many awards, and the male and female protagonists have both won the best crown, which can be described as fruitful.

Even the crew themselves didn't think of it.

He looked at the rì calendar and muttered, "The day after tomorrow, let's go and ask." Preparations for filming should have begun. ”

After a night's rest, when he woke up the next day, he was already refreshed.

Today, he was going to sort out the information about the TV series, but as soon as he finished lunch, he called on the phone.

"Enlightened, you kid!" CAMI's voice was obviously very excited, "Tell me, what's going on with you and Zhao Wei?" ”

Sent so soon? Lin Xiao smiled and said, "You know that I don't read those entertainment magazines, they are all fictitious things, they are pure fabrications, and they are not interesting to read." But I can tell you that this scandal was a favor that Zhao Wei asked me to help with. ”

"The beginning is always happy, and the truth is always skinny." CAMI sighed, "I'll let the company's car send you when you go out in the past two days, Zhao Wei has a lot of fans, it's not good to be recognized, in addition, now her fans are on your homepage, do you want to take a look?" ”

"No need." Lin Xiao smiled bitterly, "You can guess it, now it's all noisy, right?" ”

"What's more, it's escalated to a personal attack, and I've asked the admins to start deleting the post."

After chatting a few more words, Lin Xiao hung up the phone and began to recall the information of that film in his mind.

The film is not very famous, and a lot of people who are still very new have been enabled, and even CCTV has not been released, but it has only been bought out and premiered in the primary market.

Generally speaking, once a TV series is out of the framework of CCTV, then its style will drop a lot, and many not very good films will be on CCTV in various relationships, and it is not a problem to have more than a few percent of the ratings.

But the prospects of TV dramas bought by other markets are not so promising, and on local stations, there are countless TV dramas to fight with all kinds of TV dramas, revolutionary dramas, idol dramas, historical dramas, and fantasy dramas.

However, this drama has created a whopping 26% ratings! Approaching the 30% mark! In Lin Xiao's memory, letting go of this drama directly led to the voluntary resignation of the leaders of the CCTV TV crew at that time.

The only fly in the ointment is that this film, which was filmed in 01, was delayed for a whole year due to review problems, and it was only broadcast in 03.
