010, the entertainment industry that is not the same as imagined
"Let's have a look."
Ma Weisheng didn't explain, he directly picked up the mouse and operated it on the computer, and then called Luo Zihang over.
Luo Zihang leaned over, only to see that a video was playing on the screen, which was not very clear, obviously taken with a mobile phone, and the style of the mobile phone was estimated to be a little old.
Although the resolution is a little lower, Luo Zihang still recognized the group of people in the video at a glance - all of them are the crew of "Youth with You", to be precise, the behind-the-scenes personnel including the director and screenwriter.
I saw that on the screen, the director who was full of kindness after the failure of the protest in his memory was hideous at this time, and scolded while pouring wine: "What's so great about her Shi Yunyun!" Isn't it just a vase that was lucky enough to be held out by capital? It's not good to sing and sing, it's not good to act, so you dare to play a big name in a small crew like us! Also change the script? At the level of her junior high school graduation, does she have that ability?! β
Well......
Luo Zihang, who also "graduated from junior high school", faintly felt offended.
It seems that the director's complaints have driven the emotions, and the screenwriters, photography, lighting and other staff next to him also echoed it.
"I have to be late every time I shoot, let us wait for a large group of people, I have been with a lot of crews, and the top idols have not cooperated, it is really the first time I have seen an idol with a big face like Shi Yunyun!"
"I've heard before that this guy likes to play big names, but I didn't expect it to be so excessive."
"The worst thing was the rain scene, saying that the tap water was not clean, and asked us to replace it with pure water...... Do you know how much it costs to rain with pure water?! The money comes out of your salary?! β
"No way, who made her Mr. Wu's little baby? Didn't Director Zhang go to the producer? Isn't it a fart? β
A trace of ruthlessness flashed on the director's face when he heard this, and he slammed the wine glass in his hand on the table, gritted his teeth and said, "I've had enough!" I'm also from Beijing anyway, and I've been in this industry for so many years, why should I suffer from a vase! Lao Wang! I'm going to change the script! β
"The producers won't agree to it." The screenwriter on the side smiled bitterly.
"It's okay, we can change it secretly." The director showed a sinister smile, "I know very well the review mode on the Blue Shadow side, idol dramas like ours with relatively little investment, the review will not be carefully watched at all, and they will basically pass by watching one or two episodes at double speed, and even if the platform finds that something is wrong, as long as the gimmicks we prepare in the film are enough, they will not have any opinions." β
It seemed that he was moved by the director's words, and the screenwriter subconsciously licked his lips and asked, "So, how do you want to change it?" β
"Wu Zelin and Wang Chen are also blue shadows, so they can't be used, please ask a few stand-ins when the time comes, and then we will change the plot over there! And Luo Zihang's kid has just come into contact with the entertainment industry, and his personality is also a little naΓ―ve, as long as he finds an excuse to fool around, he probably can't notice anything wrong. The director obviously had an idea for a long time, he patted the table happily and said, "Hasn't Shi Yunyun always wanted to compress the role of people other than Blue Shadow?" Then I want to add drama to Luo Zihang and Zhang Lu! β
The other crew members around immediately responded one after another, and the atmosphere was very warm.
Then the video ended here, and Ma Weisheng looked sideways at Luo Zihang.
"Uh......" Luo Zihang was stunned for a moment before asking, "So, this is a traitor from Zhang Dao's side?" β
"If there is really a traitor, why didn't he poke it out before the filming was over? And didn't give the video to Blue Shadow, but chose to make it public? Also, don't you think their complaints are too urbane? Not even a few swear words. Ma Weisheng curled the corners of his mouth, revealing an expression that had already seen through everything, "Obviously, this was arranged by Zhang Xianlin in advance. β
"But, what's the point of Director Zhang doing this?"
Speaking of this, Luo Zihang can naturally guess a thing or two, but the habits brought by the workplace in his previous life made him subconsciously praise Ma Weisheng.
"Of course, it is to establish the legitimacy of his change of script," Ma Weisheng, who was planning to use this to teach, explained: "Whether it is the size of fans or the ability to guide speech, Zhang Xianlin is not as good as Blue Shadow, so this video was not released for those ordinary audiences." β
After Ma Weisheng took a sip of the teacup, he continued: "He did this to cut off Shi Yunyun's resources in the film and television industry, a woman who can make the entire crew cooperate behind the scenes, which director will dare to use it in the future?" He shook his head and sighed: "However, it can make the entire crew behind the scenes disgusted with her, this Shi Yunyun is also a bit powerful." β
No, it's the system that's already cold.
Luo Zihang complained in his heart expressionlessly.
"And Zhang Xianlin's goal is also very clear, he just wants to take revenge on Shi Yunyun, and it has not been expanded to Wu Zelin and Wang Chen of Blue Shadow, and even sold our Feiyue Media and Zhang Lu's Yashan Entertainment, in this way, it is the Blue Shadow's side that is at a loss, and it is not easy for them to deal with Zhang Xianlin clearly. Although Zhang Xianlin is not too famous, he is also from the Beijing Chuan family, so the two sides will no longer cooperate at most, and there will be a little friction at most. And, in doing so, he plucked himself out. β
Ma Weisheng gloated and smiled: "Do you remember the content of your interview before?" Zhang Xianlin's approach was actually quite hated by his peers, so Lan Ying wanted to make him a target openly and secretly, so that he couldn't get along among his peers, but now that he is doing this, he will become a script that he was forced to change by Shi Yunyun because he couldn't stand it, and these behaviors were all out of revenge...... Zhang Xianlin shouldn't have this brain, most likely someone gave him a trick......"
Probably the system gave him a trick......
Luo Zihang continued to think expressionlessly.
"Shi Yunyun's path in film and television is over, and even in variety shows, even if Lan Ying washes her with the water army, her reputation in the circle is already stinky, and then she is likely to take on some commercial performances and second-tier endorsements, so she will be squeezed by Lan Ying for two or three years, and when her popularity is completely exhausted, she will almost be abandoned, and whether she can turn over after that can only depend on luck. Therefore, idol stars like you, before you have the ability to play, you must not swell. β
Ma Weisheng gave Luo Zihang a rough analysis of Zhang Xianlin's motives for doing this and the twists and turns behind it, and then reminded Shi Yunyun of the negative teaching materials.
Then he changed his words and praised: "You did a very good job before, there are many idol stars, before there are no other advantages, those directors and investors naturally prefer to use those who can't be demons, and your performance in the play this time is also quite good, it seems that you have some acting talent, so as long as there are no accidents, your resources in film and television in the future should not be too bad." It can be said that you and Zhang Lu are the biggest winners in this farce. β
To be honest, there is still a big difference between Ma Weisheng's analysis and Luo Zihang's previous guesses.
Originally, he thought that Director Zhang Xianlin did this in order to gain the upper hand in public opinion, but the real situation is that the audience's public opinion is not important at all, and what he judged was Shi Yunyun's resources in the circle.
Sure enough, there are many things within the industry that you can't really understand without personally participating in them.
Luo Zihang secretly sighed in his heart that the intrigue in the entertainment industry was much more exciting than when he was in the workplace.
In addition, he also understood why Ma Weisheng said that he was lucky, but this luck, Luo Zihang estimated that he inherited it from his predecessor, because he had also played a few mobile games recently, and found that he had actually smuggled into a European......
"Fortunately, Lan Ying has been suppressing that interview for the sake of popularity, otherwise it would have been passive...... "Ma Weisheng shook his head happily.
Could it be that this is also because of "my" luck?
Luo Zihang couldn't help but think of his own strong luck.
"Now we can only wait for us to communicate with Lan Ying and see what to do, and ......" Just as Luo Zihang was thinking wildly, Ma Weisheng took out a stack of documents from the drawer, "With your current situation, you also need an assistant, this is the information of some assistants who have been idle in the company recently and personal assistants who can help contact, you can pick and choose." β
"Does Brother Ma have any recommended candidates?"
Luo Zihang asked while taking the information and looking at it.
"I don't have the time to pay attention to those little assistants below." Ma Weisheng sneered: "And the assistant job, the key is to be careful and strict, and then there is work experience, everything else is secondary, and if you are not satisfied, you can change one, so you don't have to choose those assistants in the company, in addition, if you have other candidates, you can also hire them yourself, but it's best not to use fans, whether it's your own or someone else's, it's easy to have problems." If you find that your assistant has signs of chasing stars, it is best to replace it as soon as possible. β
"Huh? I thought that many of those who came to work as assistants were to get close to their idols, after all, the salary was not high, and they were tired. Luo Zihang was surprised.
He knew how hard Shi Yunyun's assistants worked, and looking at their usual loyal appearance of the protector, he felt no different from those fanatical fans.
"There used to be a lot of such assistants, but then they basically had accidents, so gradually we don't recommend finding this kind of assistant, of course, if you must use it, it's okay, as long as something happens in the future, don't blame me for not warning you in advance." Ma Weisheng shrugged his shoulders and explained: "Today's assistants are more likely to use this job as a springboard, because this is the easiest way for laymen to enter the entertainment industry." β
After a pause, he added, "And then there'...... The threshold for this industry is very low, and compared to serving dishes in restaurants, being a celebrity assistant may be able to earn a little extra income, so there are still many people who will try it. β
"Okay......"
Luo Zihang pursed his lips and continued to look at the information in his hand, and found that the situation in it was really varied, not to mention those who had assistant experience and fresh graduates, among them, there were actually those who had worked as plumbers, and the self-recommendation was able to help artists solve various water and electricity problems at home...... It's magical.
In contrast, those who are good at cross-stitch and can help prepare gifts for fans "with their own hands" seem a lot more normal.
Other than that......
"Tsk, what about the beautiful assistant who said yes?"
As a normal man, Luo Zihang's first concern is naturally the appearance of these assistants, and the male assistants are ignored for the time being, and the photos of those female assistants are very ordinary.
"Of course, it's all made up in novels and TV dramas." Ma Weisheng rolled his eyes, "If you really want to be beautiful, isn't it good to be a star directly?" And you're an idol, do you talk to beautiful women all day long? Aren't you afraid of being scolded to death by your fans? β
Luo Zihang thought for a while...... It does make sense.
And he didn't seem to have heard of any beautiful assistants or handsome assistants around that idol star in his previous life, but he had heard of a few good-looking agents.
Of course, in addition to watching the fun of the collapsed house artists in his last life, Luo Zihang didn't care much about the situation of those stars, so even if there really was, it was unlikely that he would know.
"Then I'm going to pick a male assistant?" Luo Zihang glanced at his agent's slightly "bald" head, and asked with a little regret.
"No, it's better to be a female assistant, after all, women are more careful, and it's best to choose one with work experience, although that kind of assistant is a little more expensive, but it's also more versatile, and when your popularity goes up in the future, after you have more income, you can find a few more cheap assistants to be responsible for different things, now, it's better to find a more comprehensive one." Ma Weisheng didn't notice Luo Zihang's rude eyes, and still explained seriously.
Luo Zihang now also found that his agent is in the habit of asking, as long as he doesn't take the initiative to ask, the other party rarely takes the initiative to give him ideas, but as long as he asks, he will analyze it very seriously to himself.
"Well, it's best not to look for the kind of work that ends because of the collapse of the star, although they may have an accident and may not have anything to do with the assistant, but don't choose it just in case." Ma Weisheng added.
"Uh...... Brother Ma, are you talking about yourself? Luo Zihang blinked, but in the end he couldn't hold back and said a word.
Ma Weisheng said with a dark face: "Yes, then do you want to change agents?" β
"No, no, no, I'm just kidding." Luo Zihang waved his hand again and again, not daring to stimulate the other party again.
Then, according to Ma Weisheng's previous analysis, he selected a female assistant who looked ordinary, had more than three years of work experience, and was planning to jump ship from a little idol who was already angry, or had never been very popular at all.
Seeing that Luo Zihang followed his advice, Ma Weisheng's face was a little better.
"Oh, by the way, there's also an advertising endorsement here, you can sign it if you see no problem." Ma Weisheng took out another document.
"I have an endorsement now?" Luo Zihang was surprised and delighted.
"No......" The corners of Ma Weisheng's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "It's looking for Bigworth." β
Luo Zihang: "......"
He looked down at the document in his hand in a bit of a daze......
Well, it's a cat food company, and it's a very famous brand, and the cat food, cans and freeze-dried cats that Luo Zihang bought for Bigworth are all from this brand.
Then he quickly flipped to the endorsement fee......
is worthy of being a big brand, and the endorsement fee for Bigworth is more than the money he has made from advertising for a while......
It's really changed from a cat owner to a cat owner......
Luo Zihang thought with tears and laughter.
"They also invite you to shoot a commercial with Bigworth," Ma added: "The commission for the ad is the same as before, but there are no pet-related clauses in the contract with you, so Bigworth's endorsement and advertising fees don't have to be drawn." β
"That's a good feeling!" Luo Zihang suddenly smiled.
Although Brother Ma has a strange temperament, he is still very angry in doing things for others.
