Pang Haidong also thinks that Xiao Yuze is not good, he can't let go, he is introverted and shy, his mentality is still negative, and he has no background, except for a slight advantage in height, there is almost no other shining point that can be used. It is also hard to let Lin Yi be in charge of such an artist who has no advantages.

"After a whole day, is there anything worth digging?" Pang Haidong still admires Lin Yi's writing, the last time he filmed "The Ghost is Coming", through Lin Yi's pen, he, a photographer, also has a certain reputation in the circle and among fans, so he likes Lin Yi more and more.

He has been a Beipiao clan for sixteen years, relying on his cousin who is a big director, he barely mixed up with the famous hall, although with the help of his cousin, he bought a car and a house in the imperial capital, but the standard of living is like that.

Lin Yi said: "It's brewing, let's go back at night and climb the lattice slowly and grind slowly." ”

The second day was a really easy day, with the print ad barely taking less than ten minutes. When there was no work, everyone rested in place, and Lin Yi also found a few videos and began to edit them on the spot.

Suddenly, someone "leaned" and attracted everyone's attention: "Look, the crew next door is actually haunted." ”

As soon as they heard that it was haunted, everyone gathered around.

It turned out that a crew rented a courtyard house to shoot a Republic of China drama, and the crew held a start-up ceremony that day, but that night they encountered something strange, some artists said that something pinched his neck in the middle of the night, and when he got up in the morning, there was indeed a black mark on his neck. There are also people who say that when they got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, there was a figure shaking in the yard, and he thought it was someone from the crew, and he went up to say hello, but when the man turned around, he was scared to pee. Because the man's face was black and blue, and his eyes were protruding, a grimace in a ghost movie.

Rumors such as hauntings during filming in the film and television industry have legends from time to time, and everyone has seen them all over the place. The reason why onlookers are mainly looking at the strangeness.

Pang Haidong saw Lin Yi's dull gaze, so he asked, "Are you afraid?" ”

Lin Yi was stunned and asked Pang Haidong in a low voice: "What is there to be afraid of, people are afraid of evil ghosts, and ghosts are also afraid of evil people." ”

Pang Haidong said: "There seems to be some truth. Then he said to Lin Yi, "You don't believe it either, but sometimes it's really full of evil." Last year, I was with a crew, and the kick-off ceremony was also held, but the camera was always unusable. Later, I invited Master Mingkong of Dajue Temple to recite the scriptures, and it was fine. At that time, the crew spent 80,000 yuan in appearance fees. ”

Lin Yi was bored for a while and said, "These monks are quite rich. ”

Pang Haidong: "......" Alas, forget it, people are high-achieving students, these strange forces are confused, don't pollute people's ears.

The afternoon shooting went well, and it was called off before five o'clock, and Lin Yi began to pack up his things and prepare to leave. Suddenly, there was a commotion downstairs, followed by the title of Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou.

Immediately afterwards, a lean woman dressed as a white bone spirit came in with high heels, and coldly ordered the people who were still cleaning up: "Hurry up and pack up and leave." ”

When everyone saw this person, they shouted in their mouths: "Sister Zhou", even the director politely stepped forward and greeted: "But Xu Yijia wants to come to the studio?" ”

The woman who called Sister Zhou said "um" and said, "Our Garbo just received an advertisement, and we need to shoot it in the studio, and Jiabo is coming soon." Hurry up and pack up, our Garbo is running out of time. ”

"Okay, I got it." The director said to everyone, "Hurry up and clean up, don't delay our precious time for Garbo." ”

A group of staff members sped up their movements, and they cleaned up in three or two clicks. After Lin Yi packed up, he was about to carry Pang Haidong's equipment downstairs, but he was stopped and asked to go downstairs to move the props.

Although he was not a member of the crew, the other staff members were busy, and Lin Yi didn't say anything anymore, pedaling downstairs, a small truck was parked downstairs, and a group of people were moving props upstairs. A young man, who seemed to have come out of a boutique, was standing there, looking at the busy crowd. There were also two people around, one carrying a kettle and a big bag, and the other holding an umbrella and also carrying a large backpack. There was also a bearded man with a few pieces of paper talking to the man.

The man nodded from time to time, looking lazy and a little arrogant.

This is a new artist who has only recently become popular, Xu Yijia.

Lin Yi was also slightly impressed.

After the props were moved, Xu Yijia hugged him and went upstairs, and Sister Zhou, who had to be careful with the director, also said something to Xu Yijia politely and gently, and even took the towel that Xu Yijia threw over after wiping his hands.

Lin Yi looked at it at a glance, is this the so-called star? It's too windy.

Pang Haidong patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Envy, right?" ”

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Which company is this Xu Yijia from?" ”

"Star Pictures, that is one of the three leading companies in the entertainment industry. Xu Yijia made a movie this year and earned tens of millions. ”

After getting into the car, Pang Haidong said while driving: "This Xu Yijia has only been in the road for three years, and he has been making a small fuss before, shooting some advertisements or graphic models, or doing clothing models for e-commerce, and took over the > a few years ago." Qing drama puppet drama, the first time to serve as the leading actor, because the author of the play is a newcomer, and most of the actors are newcomers, who knows that it is still popular, taking advantage of the residual heat, the company vigorously packaged and promoted Xu Yijia, and also gave him an exclusive economist and assistant, and now he can be regarded as a second-tier artist, and that Zhou Weiwei is his economist. ”

Lin Yi said: "The other company's treatment of artists is quite generous. ”

Pang Haidong laughed: "It's not a matter of being generous, but whoever is popular can enjoy the treatment of a prince." ”

Turning his head to look at Lin Yi again, "Actually, your appearance is not bad, if you package it a little, you will definitely be popular." Interested in pursuing a career in the entertainment industry? This money comes quickly. ”

Lin Yi shook his head: "Me? Forget it, I don't like the spotlight. "He just wants to earn money quietly and do his job quietly, and he really doesn't want to be overspent.

Pang Haidong didn't say more, everyone has their own ambitions. Coupled with the terrible depth of this circle, it is extremely difficult for artists with no background to get out of the way, and even if they get out, there will be all kinds of jealous calculations waiting for you. Even if you have a background, you don't necessarily have to be popular, in addition to strength, there is also an element of luck.

……

Pang Haidong went to a courtyard house specially used for framing for two days of advertising shooting. I just saw that the man in charge of the props had a bad face, and asked the director: "Why did you choose this courtyard?" ”

The director explained: "The other courtyard has been rented out in advance, so this can only be used. This is the courtyard house of our boss friend, the rent is cheaper than the previous one, and the place is more secluded. ”

The prop master's face was still a little unpleasant: "However, I heard that there are some evil sects in this place. ”

The director glared at him: "Zi is silent, and his strength is confused." We're all a bunch of big men, we're full of yang, are we still afraid of that thing? ”

"But ......"

"No, it's just for one night. Afraid of what? The director said viciously.

The other staff also made fun of the prop master, saying that he was as timid as a mouse, listening to the wind and rain, and where there was any dirty stuff in this world, it was all psychological.

Seeing this, the prop master stopped talking.

Before the model came, everyone arranged accommodation first, after all, they had to stay here for one night.

After settling in their accommodation, everyone wandered around the courtyard, which was left over from the Qing Dynasty and is now valuable. Renting such a courtyard house is tens of thousands of dollars a day.

At five o'clock, the protagonist hadn't come yet, so everyone had to continue to wait.

Not surprisingly, many staff members have begun to scold artists, and after only a few days of popularity, they began to play big names, and sooner or later they got confused.

Pang Haidong is also full of complaints, because he has worked with this artist twice, and it is not a very pleasant experience. Pang Haidong has a straight temperament, so he couldn't help but scold Xu Yijia on WeChat and let Lin Yi expose him.

Lin Yi was discussing with Xiao Yuze about setting up his character, and when he saw the news, he almost laughed and replied: "I'm not Yuji." Then he said to Xiao Yuze, "I found that you are quite introverted, but you should know your shortcomings, right?" ”

Xiao Yuze nodded and said sullenly: "I have been introverted since I was a child. I also know that in my line of work, introverts can't eat. I want to change too, but I can't do it every time. ”

Lin Yi said: "It's okay, no one stipulates that introverts must become extroverts." Follow your wishes and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Keep a normal heart, be an artist, three points of talent, five points of hard work, and the last three points, let it be left to luck. ”

Xiao Yuze nodded heavily, Lin Yi really said that he was in trouble.

Lin Yi wrote and drew on the paper, and finally said: "In this way, I'll get you an otaku design, what do you think?" He felt that instead of forcing people with social phobia to socialize, it was better to push the boat down the river and set up an otaku for Xiao Yuze. It is difficult to reconcile, although artists with great exposure opportunities have the opportunity to increase their fans, but in this world, there are still many artists who like to act quietly, as long as there are works and quality, they will not pay too much attention to their private life. This kind of quiet artist will not have too many iron fans, but it is not easy to receive black fans. On the contrary, those artists who often appear in entertainment headlines, although they can quickly increase their fans and have fans, but if there is a slight stir, they will lose their fans, or their fans will turn black. There are not a few such artists in the circle, but those artists who maintain a certain sense of mystery, usually do not hype, do not engage in marketing, and only film quietly.

After a few days of getting along, Lin Yi decided that he didn't have to expose Xiao Yuze every once in a while, just wait for him to get his results, find a certain shining point, and praise him without a trace. Over time, the formation of a benign positive character, coupled with the image of an otaku who does not like hype, is also good.

Lin Yi said his thoughts, Xiao Yuze would not object, he nodded vigorously, he really didn't like exposure, the character set by Lin Yi for him was not only for his sake, but also very much in line with his character of liking quiet and not moving.

After the two sides reached an agreement, Lin Yi knew what to do next, and there was no need to follow the crew all day long.

Because Xiao Yuze is not popular yet, it is impossible for the company to be extravagant and wasteful enough to let Lin Yi be in charge of him alone. Lin Yi is not only responsible for Xiao Yuze, but also responsible for the promotion and publicity of several other 18th-tier artists in the company. is busy every day, and for the sake of doubling his salary, Lin Yi can endure it.

Now that the Special Affairs Bureau is temporarily in the peace phase, the team members have nothing to do, and they have all developed side jobs. Although Lin Yi had no ambitions, he didn't want to mix too badly, so he made the mad rat laugh at him, saying that he was fishing. As long as it stays at a medium level and doesn't get bottomed, it's done.

has only been out of society for only a year, and Lin Yi's monthly salary is already 23,000, which is not enough in the group of classmates who have already participated in the work.

……

Today happens to be the end of the month, and it is the day when Lin Yi goes to Shangqingguan to burn incense every month.

After burning a whole bundle of incense for Master Sa Shoujian and Senior Brother Cheap, he ate a vegetarian meal at Shangqingguan. In the evening, he was called to the National City God's Temple for a meeting.

After hundreds of years of struggle, he became the national city god, the second grade god, and ruled the entire Dongyue City God Temple, second only to the Dongyue God.

In ancient times, only cities above the county level could have an official Chenghuang Temple. It and official facilities such as the city, the official office, the Temple of Literature, and the Temple of Martial Arts were almost indispensable in ancient society.

Nowadays, the stars have changed, the times have changed, and most of the local city god temples have been destroyed, so most of the city gods can only stay in the space issued by the Dongyue Yin Division.

Today's Guocheng God's Temple building is half built by humans, and half is the mobile space provided by Dongyue Yinsi. The City God's Temple built by human beings is only a few hundred square meters horizontally and vertically, where can there be room for so many clergy members? Therefore, moving space is a must.

Tonight, all the yin generals, wrestlers, civil and military judges, and the bosses of the third, sixth, eighth and twenty-fourth divisions of the yamen in the national city god sat together. Lin Yilu is the deputy director of the Picket Division, and he was also honored to attend the conference.

On such a solemn occasion, he couldn't wear a mask anymore, so he had to draw a disguise charm taught to him by Master Sa Tian in advance and stick it on his body. With the disguise charm, the face is still the same face, but in the eyes of others, it has become an unfamiliar face, and the kind that cannot be remembered afterwards.

Although convenient, the disguise charm is not without its drawbacks, and once the rooster crows, it automatically fails. Sometimes, around three o'clock in the morning, there is a rooster crowing. Therefore, as a last resort, Lin Yi is still used to wearing a mask.

The theme of today's meeting is how to effectively communicate with the Western underworld and extradite the souls of Dongyue who died in the West. With the opening of China's country, more and more Chinese people go out, and they are all the elites of the elite. Many Chinese people have even changed their nationality. The brain drain is so serious, this is not only a loss to the yin and yang worlds, but also a loss to Western countries and the underworld.

Originally, Dongyue Yin Si also used thunder means to use force to go directly to the west to snatch the souls back. But the Western underworld is not vegetarian, using all kinds of means, hard to rob, people have the advantage of the terrain, and the impermanent Yin generals sent out by the Dongyue Yin Division, including the wrestlers, are mostly in vain.
