Chapter 54: An Indissoluble Bond with a Slingshot (4.6k Seeking to Read)
In Rongcheng, Xu Mu and the four of them began to pack their luggage.
After they and Jiang Hongye confirmed their participation in the audition for "Journey to the West" on the phone just now, Jiang Hongye immediately sent the address and itinerary.
"Filming location, ...... of Jin Province"
"Audition time, August 20 ~ August 27."
"When you get to show your face directly, report my name."
"Don't be idle these two days, figure out the role."
At this time, Jiang Hongye didn't tease Dong Fei anymore, but told him seriously that the role he auditioned for was a nine-headed worm.
Jiang Hongye's relationship mode with Xu Mu and Dong Fei is not quite the same.
In his opinion, Dong Fei is a little more fun.
Xu Mu, Ke him.
"Time is a bit tight, are we going to leave tonight, or are we going to leave tomorrow?" Zhang Yue asked.
Today is the 23rd.
Xu Mu and the others glanced at each other, but Dong Fei opened his mouth first: "Otherwise, let's leave tomorrow, let's make preparations." ”
"What are you going to do?" Xie Chen asked.
Dong Fei: "I want to make a character biography." ”
At the same time, he looked at Xu Mu: "Yes, Brother Mu." ”
Zhang Yue stroked her forehead with her hand, she knew that Dong Fei had this habit since he was stimulated by Xu Mu last time.
Xie Chen looked at Xu Mu and saw that he had no intention of objecting, so he nodded: "Then I'll leave tomorrow." ”
"Buy books, buy books."
The time was set, and Dong Fei's first reaction was to pull Xu Mu to buy books.
Not to brag about it, everyone has watched the "Journey to the West" TV series, but not everyone may have read the original book.
That afternoon, Xu Mu and Dong Fei bought books and even two children's toys.
Crescent spatula, a three-pointed, two-edged knife.
According to Dong Fei's words: "Play in advance." ”
Just for this matter, Xie Chen changed the big room for both of them.
At eight o'clock in the evening, after everyone went back to their respective rooms after eating, Xu Mu also took out the information.
Erlang God is actually familiar to everyone, but Xu Mu really hasn't carefully read the fragment of Erlang God in "Journey to the West", so the homework that should be done still has to be done.
"Brush brush brush", he began to flip through the book.
He checked the information in advance, and Erlang God did not appear in the book very often.
In the sixth episode of "Guanyin went to the meeting to ask the reason, the little sage Shi Wei descended to the great sage" appeared for the first time, and his appearance was also described in the book.
The great sage saw that he was "really strange, and he was dressed delicately." ”
"Qingqi ......" Xu Mu drew a circle.
Therefore, Erlang God should indeed be handsome.
Let's look at the next paragraph: "The appearance is beautiful and dignified...... Wearing a light goose yellow. ”
"Wisps of gold boots lined with dragon socks, jade belt flower eight treasures makeup. He carries a slingshot crescent on his waist and holds a three-pointed two-edged gun. ”
Wait a minute.
Xu Mu seemed to have been triggered by the keyword: "Slingshot? ”
Why does Erlang God play with a slingshot?
There is another sentence at the back: "The axe split Peach Mountain once saved his mother, and he played the Brown Luo Double Phoenix." ”
It shows that the Erlang God in Journey to the West is really playing with a slingshot.
Xu Mu flipped back again, and turned to the part where Erlang God beat the nine-headed insect, and wrote: "Erlang will take the golden bow, install the silver bullet, pull the bow full, and hit it up." ”
In fact, many people don't pay attention to it, even in the classic "Journey to the West" on the earth, in the section of fighting the hydra, although Erlang God is holding a bow in his hand, there is no arrow on the bow, but a projectile.
Xu Mu didn't pay attention to it before.
"Check."
Xu Mu suddenly became energetic.
This is no longer a question of whether to play Erlang God or not, it is a problem for a man who suddenly discovers that there is a certain weapon that he has not paid attention to before.
After consulting the information, Xu Mu gradually learned about the slingshot, which is roughly similar in shape to the bow, but does not shoot arrows, but places a leather pocket at the bowstring of the slingshot, which can wrap the projectile used to be fired.
Mr. Xu Mu watched it for more than an hour, and saw the use of the slingshot from the production of the slingshot.
"It's hard to look at."
Xu Mu sighed and sat down on the chair.
And the next second he sat down, the voice of the system suddenly sounded in his head: "Congratulations host, you have read a lot of content related to the character Erlang God. ”
"Reward: D-Rank Special Skill - Slingshot (Non-Growth)."
As the sound of the system fell, Xu Mu's arm began to tremble, and some muscle memories began to appear.
For example, how to draw the bow, how to tilt the left hand to the side at the moment when the projectile is out of hand, so that the projectile does not hit your hand.
But!
"What do I want this for?"
But who would dislike having a lot of craftsmanship, Xu Mu immediately smiled.
He got up and picked up the toy three-pointed two-edged knife, and the toy gun in his hand whirred as the C-class literati turned the fan.
"Even though it's only a few minutes of the scene, then I have to be able to prepare enough."
After turning the gun for a while, Xu Mu wanted to try his slingshot technique more and more.
I really didn't play it when I was young.
Sneaking downstairs, I went to the convenience store to buy a rope, and found a fresh branch in the grove downstairs of the hotel, and Xu Mu sneaked upstairs again.
Afraid of being seen, Xu Mu still walked the stairs, but at the top of the stairs, he met Xie Chen who was smoking.
Xie Chen looked at the branches and leather ropes in Xu Mu's hands, and frowned: "What are you doing with this thing?" ”
Xu Mu: "I'll make a slingshot." ”
Hearing this, Xie Chen was stunned for a second, and then his face changed greatly: "Xu Mu! You're going to play! ”
"Why are all the neurotic scenes filmed, and you still want to do a slingshot to hit someone's glass?"
Xu Mu was stupid, what is this?
"The slingshot used by Erlang God, I'll study it."
Xie Chen: "Don't talk nonsense, when did Erlang God use a slingshot." ”
You see, there are really not many people who know that Jiro God uses a slingshot.
Xu Mu explained for a long time before he calmed Xie Chen down, otherwise Xie Chen would have taken Xu Mu to see a psychiatrist tonight.
Back in the house, Xu Mu made a simple slingshot, and the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand kept turning, intermittently practicing pulling the bow and strings.
Because of the foundation of five-step boxing, Xu Mu's current movements are finally powerful and good-looking.
However, this is not the end, Xu Mu carefully recalled the Erlang God costume of Jiao Enjun on the earth, and made some notes at the same time.
"Bright Silver Armor, Black Clothed ......"
Use it or not, be prepared.
It was about eleven o'clock in the evening, Xu Mucai finished tossing these things, took a shower and lay on the bed.
It was twelve o'clock.
Xu Mu's mobile phone suddenly rang a voice, and Xu Mu glanced at it.
"The Film and Television Practitioners Association reminds you that you can already make an appointment for film and television after September 12...... For the introductory exam, please prepare in advance. ”
Seeing this information, Xu Mu sat up from the bed.
"It's finally time to make an appointment!"
He turned on his computer, logged on to the website, and entered his identification information.
You have entered the test type selection screen.
General Assessment, Special Actor Assessment, Child Actor ......
The film test in this world is very detailed and complicated, for example, the assessment of child actors is very different from that of ordinary adult actors.
The requirements for acting skills are much lower in the assessment of child actors, but the test of children's mental health accounts for a large proportion, and the fear is that some children are used by parents as a tool to attract money, which will lead to psychological problems.
There are also special actors and elderly actors, all of whom have different standards.
Because it is a bit difficult to ask actors such as children or the elderly to pass the cultural knowledge class.
Some old people, when they close their eyes, they will be able to perform as long as they think of the experience at that time, but they can't write, so don't they let their families act?
Culture is not a diploma, nor can it be equated only with the amount of textbook knowledge, but should be a person's understanding and observation of the world.
Some people can use their experience to act.
In this regard, the film examination has a fairly detailed division.
And what Xu Mu wants to participate in is the most ordinary assessment, cultural knowledge and acting skills.
Looking at it this way, the requirements for young actors are relatively high, but in fact, the cultural class exam is just common sense, and the acting exam is only able to express joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and be able to speak clearly.
What is common sense, common sense is that it is impossible to make eight moves in backgammon, and this kind of line actually appeared in a certain online drama on the earth.
Some people say that this is the screenwriter's pot, could it be that the actor's brain went offline when he said this?
Don't talk about anything, some people don't study, but they are talented and can act, because there will always be people in this world who are better than you and study harder.
Xu Mu simply clicked on the registration.
The film audition time is September 12.
After registering, Xu Mu couldn't sleep while lying on the bed.
Then he posted a message in the Four Heavenly Kings group: "Brothers, I signed up for the next film exam." ”
I didn't mean anything else, I just wanted to tell them that I was really going down.
However, I did not receive a reply.
On the other side, in the middle of the night, in a large office, the lights were still on, and from time to time there were heated discussions.
In the office, Zhao Junfeng, who had already returned, sat side by side with Tao Yiran and Chen Yaoxing.
Opposite them was Zheng Sumei, as well as two executives of the company.
In fact, at this point in the matter, there is nothing more to talk about.
It's nothing more than the amount of liquidated damages, and the question of whether it looks good on both sides. To put it simply, a profit, a name.
In terms of liquidated damages, there are precedents in the industry, and there is always a general range.
As for face, the face of Zhao Junfeng and the three of them is not important, but Tianxing's face is important.
"Do you know how much damage you're doing to the company's reputation? Can you afford to pay for these losses? One of the tall, skinny executives drank.
Zhao Junfeng yawned: "If we tell a lie, you can show evidence, and the reputation will naturally come back." ”
"Zhao Junfeng, you speak well! When you are an artist, you just talk to your superiors! Zheng Sumei glared angrily.
Tao Yiran, who was next to Zhao Junfeng, suddenly got up and shouted, "Who is not good at talking now?" Shout at every turn, you are fucking deaf! ”
"Lao Tzu is not ready to be an artist now, you shout at me!"
Zheng Sumei and the others were obviously stunned for a moment.
If this was before, these guys wouldn't have talked to them like this.
Obviously, their previous tricks can't hold down these young men.
"Okay, let's not talk about this matter for now, the company has an arrangement now, I hope you can cooperate." The tall and thin supervisor's voice was noticeably calmer.
"The company is going to give you a disbandment concert." Zheng Sumei added on the side.
Disbanding a concert, a classic operation for entertainment companies.
There are two functions, the first is to pick up the last wave of wool.
The second is that everyone looks good-looking, at least others look at it, and the two sides have not completely torn their faces.
After all, it's still going to hold a disbandment concert, isn't it?
Like the flower band on the earth back then, they not only held a disbandment concert, but also invited many musicians in the industry to the scene.
The company can not only make money, but also look good on the face, and the industry leaders also have money, and the company can also make contacts.
How cool.
"Disbanding the concert?" Zhao Junfeng and the others hesitated.
Sometimes people are hypocritical or emotional, and when they come to the last step, they actually want to give fans an explanation.
"Let's settle the amount of liquidated damages before we talk about the concert." At this time, the taciturn Chen Yaoxing spoke.
Tao Yiran: "Wait, I'll ask our lawyer to come over." ”
The flesh on Zheng Sumei's face was trembling.
These three goods, how can they be a little illiterate!
In the end, the two sides talked fiercely for more than half an hour, and finally set a similar amount, and then everyone began to talk about the dissolution of the concert.
"The concert should be as soon as possible, the company will be responsible for venue rental, publicity and ......, and the revenue of the concert will be divided after deducting the publicity cost, and the specific proportion will ......"
Before the executive's words were finished, Chen Yaoxing interrupted him: "Don't talk about account sharing, we have been in the circle for so many years, and it is still clear how elastic the publicity cost is." ”
Tao Yiran smiled: "What effect can your so-called propaganda achieve?" It's okay for a big V to give 100,000 or 200,000, but who knows if you will report 200,000 yuan and get a kickback from the big V when you go back? The income of the return concert is 3 million, and you tell me that the cost is 5 million, why do I have to post your money upside down? ”
Zhao Junfeng: "We don't need to do any publicity, we can come as many people as we can." ”
There's no talk about it.
"And what do you mean?" The tall and thin supervisor's voice was already very low.
Zhao Junfeng and the three of them glanced at each other, and Chen Yaoxing said: "We don't need to be too good at the concert venue, we won't rehearse for a long time, and we don't need to invite more awesome bands, and then you give a package price, if the concert income is lower than this number, the income is all yours, if it is higher than this number, the rest is ours." ”
"That can't be." Zheng Sumei said coldly.
"That's fine." Zhao Junfeng got up directly.
"Wait." Another supervisor, who had not spoken, said, "Let's talk again." ”
A concert, an average stadium with a scale of 10,000 people, the rent ranges from 10-200,000 yuan, if according to Zhao Junfeng, they don't rehearse much, then the rent starts from four days, counting the messy expenses, the cost is about 1.5 million.
But Zhao Junfeng's current situation, the average ticket price is only three or four hundred per ticket.
Another supervisor tapped his finger on the table: "After the incident, we will also sell the concert video on the Internet, and the income may be a lot ......"
That's how you make it both ways.
Those who are willing to spend money to see it offline are all sentimental and spend hundreds of dollars.
Watching the replay online, it was a fun, and it cost a dozen yuan.
"If you have to set a number, 8 million to 10 million."
Tao Yiran laughed and said, "Why don't you kill me and sell my organs?" ”
That's a number, it's not nonsense.
Then the two sides quarreled again and called the lawyer in.
The final amount was set at about 5.5 million.
"I have another question, that is, can Xu Mu come?" Zhao Junfeng finally asked.
Zheng Sumei didn't raise her head: "He can't come, he is no longer from the illiterate group." ”
In fact, what she thought in her heart was that these three would not be in the entertainment industry in the future, and they would make as much money as they could make with the last money.
But Xu Mu is an insider.
A disbandment concert is likely to wake up the fans of the previous illiterate group, and finally fall in love with Xu Mu.
It's just that Xu Mu is not under Tianxing, and they can't cooperate with Qiming.
Why make a wedding dress for someone else?
Chen Yaoxing nodded: "It's okay, it's not necessarily a good thing that he's here, he's still preparing for the film exam." ”
Speaking of this, Zheng Sumei suddenly raised her head and said, "There is one more request, Zhao Junfeng, you have to sing "Horse Husbandry City". ”
"We'll talk about the right to use the song, and we'll invite the fool to your disbandment concert."
They are trying to win over the fools.
Take the initiative to send you money and sing in 10,000 people to witness your song being sung.
There is face and money.
It's been a long time, and you haven't come to our side yet?
Not only that, but they have been trying to find a way to contact the Fool for the past two days.
Zhao Junfeng didn't speak, because he also wanted to meet this fool.
"How do you decide the time for the concert?" Zheng Sumei asked.
At this time of day, there really is no special day.
"Wait a minute." Zhao Junfeng took out his mobile phone.
They saw Xu Mufa's message just now, but they didn't bother to reply.
"Wood, what day are you taking the exam?"
It was already around two o'clock in the morning.
But Xu Mu really didn't sleep, he had insomnia.
"September 12th."
Seeing Zhao Junfeng's message, Xu Mu replied.
In the conference room, Zhao Junfeng raised his head: "It's scheduled for September 12th." ”
Let's move on to the next stage.
ps: Let's come to the big chapter first, the second chapter will be a little later.
