Chapter 511: An Increasingly Cruel Contract
Xu Jin responded to these greetings very gently.
Although everyone is not familiar with it, it is easier to continue to deal with people who are approachable on the surface.
Most of these actors are new actors signed by Tang Ren in the past two years, and the number is quite large, at least more than the one that Xu Jin joined.
Xu Jin was a little puzzled, he remembered that Tang Ren's criteria for selecting actors were very strict, but looking at it now, it seems that most of these people are students who have just graduated?
"Have you been acting all the time?"
The young actors didn't expect Xu Jin to take the initiative to talk, and hurriedly said: "No, I'm still in school." ”
"I'm still in school, so I deliberately asked the school for leave to shoot for this filming."
"We all went to school in film and television school."
Xu Jin understood that Tang Ren was directly absorbing seedlings from the film and television academy.
No wonder this actor looks very young, and there is still a childishness on his body, not at all like an actor who has been out for a long time.
There are many advantages to selecting actors for training when they are students, one is that they can better control the actors, the second is that they can be better trained, and the third is that they can have a good relationship when they are young, and when they are older, they will have a friendship.
The younger you are, the easier it is to arouse a sense of belonging to the star.
It's just that this kind of training method is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and there are so many newcomers in the entertainment industry every year, only a few can appear in front of the public and leave an impression.
Now that Tang Ren has come in so much, I don't know how many people's youth will be delayed.
Xu Jin sighed in his heart, after meddling into the investment film and putting himself in the perspective of an investor, he has a more different understanding of the profession of stars.
"How many years have you all been with the company?" Xu Jin suddenly asked curiously.
The other celebrities looked at each other and hesitated for a moment.
Still, someone was quick to speak: "I've been on a contract for 10 years." ”
"I've been for eight years."
"I'm ten years too."
"How can you sign for such a long time, I'm six years." One of the stars asked, confused.
Other celebrities also looked at him suspiciously: "When did you join the company, when I joined the company, the agent told me that I would sign a contract for at least ten years." ”
"Yes, I'm also ten years, I originally wanted to make it shorter, but the agent directly told me that if I don't want to accept this clause, then don't sign Tang Ren."
said that the star who has been six years said: "I joined Tangren in 04, and now I have passed more than half of the contract period." ”
04 years?
Xu Jin's eyes flashed slightly, coincidentally, he also joined Tang Ren in 04, at that time He Chuan gave him several contract years, and finally he chose the shortest year, which was to sign a contract for five years.
It is not surprising that this star chose to sign a contract for six years, after all, the minimum contract period is five years, and the others can be signed for six, seven or eight years according to negotiations.
"I joined in '06."
"I joined in '07."
"Wow, 07, you're so lucky, you can participate in the filming of the TV series if you join this year, I waited two years for such an opportunity." Some celebrities said enviously.
Xu Jin left silently, and none of the people in this group dared to take the initiative to ask him how many years he had joined.
Although Xu Jin looks similar in age to them, there is too much difference in the achievements between them, in the entertainment industry, he is a senior, and everyone is not familiar with each other.
It is because of this that they are very alienated from each other, and Xu Jin has no idea of wanting to have a good relationship with them.
The status level is not right, there is nothing to communicate, and if you stay, you will only be praised desperately, and this kind of praise is not mellow at all, especially fake.
Although he knew that he was indeed great, he also hoped that others would be more natural when they praised him.
Walking to an open space, Xu Jin lowered his head and muttered: "It seems that all the new actors who joined this year can only sign contracts for ten years, which is not a short time, but it doesn't seem to be too long." ”
"Xu Jin, what ten years is not ten years?"
Director Liang Chaowei came to him to hold a start-up ceremony together, specially found him, and heard his muttering.
Seeing Director Liang, Xu Jin's eyes lit up and asked, "Director, I remember that you also signed a contract with Tangren Company this year to become a director?" ”
Liang Chaowei nodded: "Yes, not only me, but Wei Feng also signed a contract to become the company's screenwriter." ”
"How many years have you all been contracting?"
"Five years!" Director Liang said as a matter of course.
"Only five years?"
"Of course it's five years, why do we want to sign for such a long time for a creative person? We can receive a salary from the company every month, in case the company has signed a contract for a long time, but we haven't filmed and written a single film and television drama, then the company's salary is not in vain? ”
Xu Jin suddenly said, "Yes, you receive your salary." ”
The benefits of directors and screenwriters are different, and the salary they can receive from the company each month is also different depending on their rank.
However, compared with actors, their income will be more fixed, they will receive a salary when they are not filming, and they will receive dividends when they are filming.
As long as there is a drama that is popular, the director will get no less dividends from it, and it can also contribute to fame, and then the salary from the head of the company will be a little more.
In comparison, celebrities have no benefits, no insurance, and no basic salary, and they are really rich when they are unknown and have no money, and they are really rich when they are rich once they become popular.
Everything depends on fate, some people have a red life, and some people have a life that will never be popular.
……
The opening ceremony was held, and many media came to take pictures, this is Xu Jin's second film and television drama filmed this year, and everyone is looking forward to it.
Because Xu Jin is too famous, even the crew that joined him has attracted much attention, which can be regarded as the benefit of fame.
has just been filmed, and many people have already paid attention to the drama "Peerless", and on the Internet and major entertainment media newspapers, this matter has also been reported one after another, and the space occupies quite a lot.
Even the public passers-by know that Xu Jin has taken on a new drama called "Unparalleled", how can people in the industry not know?
Not only did they know, but they also deliberately sent people to search for it.
"Unparalleled? I haven't heard of a big production called this year this year, hurry up and check it out! ”
"It turns out that this is Tang Ren's own self-made drama, no wonder the industry can't receive a little rumor."
"Alas, it's a pity that I was abducted by Tang Ren, and I still want to invite Xu Jin to come over and shoot my script!"
"Looking at the name, it should be a costume martial arts drama, I don't know when it will be filmed, and whether they will compete together next year?"
"I'm looking forward to whether Xu Jin, a star, can create a ratings miracle again, it's hard to say about the company's internal self-made dramas, and I can't see if the script really has potential."
The company's internal self-made drama, even if the actors don't want to act, they have to act.
No matter how much personality the actor has, it is always impossible to refute the boss.
Industry insiders also know this truth, so it is mixed feelings about Xu Jin's drama, who knows if he was forced to act or was willing to act?
Of course, this kind of trouble will also be considered by the TV station, for other peers, it is of course good if Xu Jin can produce another blockbuster, but it doesn't matter if he can't.
There are also many enemies of Xu Jin, they not only hope that Xu Jin's acting skills will deteriorate, but also hope that the reputation of the TV series he acted in will be lost.
"Act 1, filming officially begins!" With the director's order, Xu Jin appeared.
The clothes he wears are very ordinary, he is an adopted farmer, and everyone in the village does farm work honestly, but only Zhuang Yan played by Xu Jin is more out of tune.
Zhuang Yan doesn't like to do farm work, he likes to play everywhere, that is, run around.
"Ahh
Zhuang Yan's ears were grabbed by a peasant woman and scolded: "You ran out to play again, how many times did you tell you to go farming, and you ran out again!" Why are you so ignorant! ”
As the peasant woman spoke, Zhuang Yan opened her mouth silently while shouting in pain, and her mouth was the same as that of the peasant woman.
"How many times have you said this, you've been saying it all the time, mother, you can't change it to fresh?"
"Fresh? What a freshness! You're going to me off! The peasant woman finally put her hand down.
Zhuang Yan immediately ran to the table and sat down, putting one leg on the bench like a very uncle, with a rebellious expression that was quite a kind of "little devil of marriage".
"I, Zhuang Yan, the son of Zhuang Youqian, the 580th generation villager of Zhuangjia Village, decided to break the life of generations of farmers and lead the Zhuang family...... Ah, mother, don't! ”
Zhuang Yan jumped and ran around, and his mother behind him was holding a broom to beat him.
"Don't be a descendant! I'll kill you, unscrupulous descendant! Our dealer has been farming for generations, what else can we do if we don't go to be farmers? Don't hide from me, come back! ”
Zhuang Damiang's combat effectiveness is very strong, but Zhuang Yan's dodging skills are also superb.
The broom hit the floor with a bang, and it didn't hit Zhuang Yan.
"Ah, mother, I'm your only son, you're going to beat me to death, ah, mother!" Zhuang Yan deliberately shouted so loudly that it attracted the onlookers of the surrounding villagers.
"Auntie, you better let him go, he's just a child!"
"Yes, auntie, your Xiaoyan has just grown up!"
For the surrounding farmers, the child has not been married, and has always been just a child.
Although Zhuang Yan is lazy and naughty, his mouth is also sweet, which makes the surrounding neighbors happy.
In recent years, the harvest in the village has been good, everyone has made a fortune from farming, and everyone can eat enough, so they are also very tolerant of Zhuang Yan.
This child's mouth is really sweet!
This series of performances, Xu Jin's performance is called a smooth and natural, vividly and vividly performed the image of a person who doesn't want to do farm work, the key is that the image that he said matches has no sense of disobedience.
Xu Jin is also 24 years old this year, and according to the family's algorithm, he is also 25 years old, if he plays an eighteen-year-old young man at his age, it is actually a bit inconsistent.
But Xu Jin won't, he is very well maintained and looks very young, and he is very similar to playing a bastard.
The first scene of the crew's start-up was filmed so smoothly and smoothly!
The young actors who joined Tang Ren all looked at Xu Jin with some shock, their eyes flickered, and they were all thinking, if it was themselves, would they be able to shoot smoothly and naturally for the first time?
In the end, everyone shook their heads, they couldn't do it.
Just shoot a few clips, then you are sure, but the performance of such a long clip in a row without being called by the director, Xu Jin is not only good at acting, but also good at positioning.
Every action he makes, every position he goes, can be stuck on the camera and filmed by the camera, this is where Xu Jin is powerful.
Even if they have such acting skills, they don't have to be so old and spicy.
This scene has been filmed, and it is the turn of the old drama bone, that is, the actor who plays Zhuang Yan's mother, to perform, sitting in front of the door and crying with the neighbors Zhuang Yan is so naughty, their family is such a man, how will they live in the future.
Today is the first day of filming, Liang Chaowei is an increasingly strict director, and he will not give heavy tasks to the actors all at once, so the first day of filming is very easy for Xu Jin.
As soon as he finished filming, he was about to go to the hotel, and several of the young actors came over to get close to Xu Jintao.
Chat with Xu Jin when he was waiting for the car to be picked up and taken to the hotel.
"Brother Xu, your acting skills look so good, can you tell us a few acting tips?"
"Brother Xu, I'm the same age as you, but you've surpassed me too much!"
"Brother Xu, are you an experiential actor, I have a scene where I want to make a sad feeling, but what should I do if I don't enter the play all the time?"
……
Xu Jin didn't expect him to be so popular, he didn't like to deal with people very much, but looking at the eyes of these young actors with anticipation, he was embarrassed to refuse directly and gave an answer.
"Keep acting and practicing, practice in front of the mirror every day, and if you have a poor acting foundation, you have to insist on taking acting classes, and the methods taught by the teacher are very useful."
has performed all the way to the present, Xu Jin has to rely on his own understanding and reading except for his acting skills when he is playing tricks, but if he has Tang Ren, he will continue to learn in the system.
It was only when he entered the system to learn that he felt how different it was to have a teacher to teach, and it was much better than when he was alone!
Everyone thinks he is a wild man, but in fact, he is also an academic.
Xu Jin just replied, and the car came, he said goodbye to everyone, and then left.
All the young actors watched him leave enviously and muttered: "I really want to be like him, there is a special person to pick him up and drop off when he goes in and out!" ”
One of the actors took out a small notebook and a pen to record something, then looked through the previous records, took a deep breath and returned to the crew.
"Xiao Li, isn't your role in today's scene gone, aren't you going back?"
The actor who was called "Xiao Li" shook his hand behind their backs, "No, I'll stay and take a look." ”
The other actors watched him return to the set and felt strange.
"Do you want to see how other actors act? Can you really learn anything from other actors? ”
"How is it possible, if you want to act, you still have to rely on the world, how many opportunities can we have to face the camera?"
"Maybe he has other plans......"
No one noticed that the notebook that Xiao Li took out just now, the first page read-
How to become the second Xu Jin
