Chapter 304: Think long-term
Jiang Qinqin's apartment is near Madian Bridge in the North Third Ring Road, very close to the Beijing Film Studio, Li Tang came out of the back door of the Beijing Film Studio after finishing work, and walked all the way along Jian'an West Road on the edge of Tucheng Park in the Yuan Dadu.
People have a safe area of their psyche and like to stay in familiar places. For example, if you live in Dongcheng for a long time, then buying a house must be the first choice in the surrounding area, unless you don't have money, but you will also be as close to the area as possible in Dongcheng, not to say that you will buy SJS or Fangshan in the west.
Jiang Qinqin graduated from Nortel, and her unit was assigned to Beijing Film Studio, and then contacted her ex-boyfriend, who was a director at Beijing Film Studio, it is easy to understand why her house was bought here. Maybe I was going to get married from the beginning, but unfortunately I went through all kinds of things in the middle, and I had no choice but to break up in the end.
When he saw a flower shop along the way, he hesitated a little and went in to buy a bouquet of lilies. It's not practical to spend this kind of thing, but it can please girls. However, he didn't like roses very much, and it felt too strong. The lily is light and represents purity and nobility.
"Wow, thank you!"
When Jiang Qinqin opened the door and saw a large bouquet of white lilies, she was really happy.
There is a pair of men's slippers at the door, which at first glance look like the newly bought and unused kind.
Jiang Qinqin ushered him in the door.
"Sit down, what do you want to drink?"
"Tea bar."
Li Tang sat down on a white European-style classical sofa and looked around. The living room is very large, very luxuriously decorated, with white as the main color, with European classical style furniture, which is also the most popular decoration style nowadays.
"Your house is quite large!"
"It's just a two-bedroom apartment, and when I bought it, I said that the building area was more than 120 square meters, but in fact, the usable area was more than 80 points." Jiang Qinqin came over with a cup of tea.
Although the two had already "met frankly", after all, it was the first time to come to the door, and she was particularly enthusiastic.
The house was bought in ninety-nine, and she and her ex-boyfriend hadn't broken up at that time; The keys taken for two thousand years have been broken up by that time; It took another year to complete the renovation, and she basically filmed outside last year, and she didn't live in this house a few times after it was renovated.
There are two bedrooms, one south and one north, the master bedroom with bathroom in the south and the guest room in the north.
Jiang Qinqin can cook, but the level is average. The sauced beef was made by Xiao Tang yesterday, just change the knife and cut it, as well as braised fish, boiled prawns, mixed with preserved egg tofu, and fried vinegared cabbage.
"How?"
"It's okay!"
During this time, she was used to eating the dishes of the little chef, and Jiang Qinqin's craftsmanship could only be regarded as okay, barely able to eat.
"Here, a toast."
Maybe it was the first time Li Tang came to his house today, Jiang Qinqin was in a good mood, she didn't entangle words with him, raised her glass and smiled.
"Good!"
The oversized bottle of Burgundy wine makes a crisp sound when touched lightly, and the bright red liquid slides down the wall of the glass into your mouth. Authentic cask Bordeaux red wine has a mellow taste, with a rich oak aroma and fruity flavor, which is very layered.
"I'm going to report to the crew tomorrow."
"Then do you live on the crew?"
Two days ago, I stayed at the Jianguo Hotel in Qianmen, and the two of them were grinding their ears and temples, but they were still unsatisfied.
Jiang Qinqin shook the cup in her hand and shook her head: "I'm a cameo this time, I don't have many scenes, and I don't plan to live in the crew." ”
As she spoke, she stood up and took out a key from the drawer of the cabinet in the entrance next to her, handed it to Li Tang and said, "The time is uncertain after entering the group, take this key, and the province has to call every time." ”
Hey, is this the rhythm of taking care of yourself?
When it came to this, Li Tang had nothing to hesitate, took the key and put it in his pocket, and said, "By the way, if Xu Zheng comes over tomorrow, I may not be able to come." ”
"Whatever."
Jiang Qinqin picked up the wine decanter and poured some wine into the cups of the two.
It can be seen that she is not satisfied with this cameo, the cameo not only means that there are fewer scenes, but the salary is estimated to mean it. Nowadays, actors' salaries are calculated according to the number of episodes, such as how much is an episode; Some are calculated by the number of days, for example, this time Zhang Baibai invited Fan Wei to play the role of fat chef Wang Yao, which is calculated according to 2,000 yuan a day, and it will cost 20,000 yuan for ten days of shooting.
Of course, big-name actors are calculated according to how much money is per episode, such as the most popular little swallow at the moment, and the external quotation of the TV series has been as high as 100,000 episodes. In this era, there is basically no price in the market, and no crew can afford it. But people don't care at all now, and they are focused on developing in the film industry. Not long ago, he just collaborated with Jiang Wen and Wang Xueqi on the costume martial arts film "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" directed by He Ping.
However, although Xiaoyanzi has been very popular in the past two years, there has been no shortage of moths, first in April last year, there was a military flag gate incident, and then at the end of last year, he was splashed with dung in Fulantai. It can only be said that there are many people who are popular.
Although Li Tang has cooperated with her, it is limited to a cooperative relationship, and there has been no contact since the end of the cooperation. Xiaopang had occasional contact with her before, but as people became more and more popular, the relationship gradually faded. After all, we are in different circles and do not have any common language.
It's a bit far, Jiang Qinqin, as a popular female star who is deeply involved in the field of TV dramas, is basically paid about 30,000 episodes. As the female number one to shoot a TV series, after deducting the brokerage company's commission, the amount of money she gets is generally about 500,000.
Of course, the salary is part of the actor's income, as well as the income from commercial performances and advertising endorsements. But this part of the income, her brokerage company takes a very hard cut, three seven open, or upside down, the company is seventy percent, and the individual is thirty percent.
It is precisely because of this that Jiang Qinqin is sometimes very disgusted with some of the commercial performances that the company helped her take, mainly because the people she came into contact with during the commercial performances were uneven, careless, took the opportunity to rub oil, and even made dirty demands. But in order to make money, the company helped her take on various commercial performances, and she had a lot of friction with the company for this reason. This time, the company is going to squeeze her in terms of salary, which is a bit like the last straw that crushes the camel.
"Recently, the company urged me to renew my contract." After a few glasses of red wine, Jiang Qinqin's face turned red.
"Didn't you say your contract didn't expire until the end of the year?" Li Tang said a little surprised.
"Yes, they are probably afraid that I will be poached by other companies, so they can't wait to ask me to renew my contract." Jiang Qinqin said mockingly.
Li Tang understood in seconds and asked, "What conditions does your company offer?" ”
"Our company? Cut, the salary has been increased from thirty-seven to twenty-eight, and the commercial income has been increased from the upside-down three-seven to the upside-down four-six, and they are also embarrassed! ”
She signed a contract with Qiong Yao's brokerage company, although Aunt Qiong Yu was kind to her, but she has made so much money for the company over the years, even if it is a great kindness, she has almost repaid it, but what is the result? In the final analysis, the pattern of Taibazi is not enough, she is too shrewd, and she is bent on treating her as a cash cow.
"Did that dig your company?" Li Tang asked again.
"Yes, there are, and some of the conditions are quite tempting, but ......"
Jiang Qinqin hesitated with her wine glass, shook her head and said, "I still don't know the bottom of my heart." ”
It's not easy to find a reliable brokerage company in China these days, if nothing else, let's just talk about Lu Yi, what kind of popularity did a "Never Look Away" become, and even won the Golden Eagle Award in one fell swoop. But because the agency is unreliable, he has received countless advertisements in recent years, but there are few good film and television works. Not to mention the consumption of word-of-mouth in vain, the popularity is also declining year by year, and now it is no longer the same.
"And what are you going to do?"
"I don't know! But anyway, I've already thought about it, after filming "Half Life", I won't take the drama and give myself a long vacation. ”
"Didn't you say you had enough rest at home a few days ago, why are you going to take a long vacation again now?"
"Just because I've rested enough at home doesn't mean I don't want to take a vacation! Anyway, I don't plan to renew the contract this time, and Xiao Tang is willing to go with me, as for Sister Jingping, in fact, her work has been done by Xiao Tang for the past two years. ”
She and Xiao Tang are both from the mainland, and the two have been together for so many years, and they have long had a deep relationship. And her agent Li Jingping is Wanwan, and they are the ones who have one heart.
"That's fine." Li Tang nodded.
Jiang Qinqin pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Then you don't say anything to give me some advice." ”
"Uh......"
To be honest, Li Tang couldn't give any good advice, and he didn't dare to give it. This kind of thing, especially for Jiang Qinqin, a popular star, is definitely a big deal, one wrong step and one wrong step, from popular to outdated, it may be a blink of an eye.
He could only smile bitterly and said, "You have to make your own mind about this kind of thing, what good advice can I have." ”
"Cut, I knew that you men just can't be trusted!" Jiang Qinqin snorted coldly.
Don't look at her on the surface she looks gentle like water, but in fact, she has a hot temper in her bones and is a living hot girl. She saw Li Tang's hesitation, why hesitate? It's just that she's afraid of taking responsibility, and in the end, she still doesn't treat her as her own.
Just imagine, if it is a husband and wife, when encountering such a major event related to the future of the wife, the husband will help the wife come up with ideas no matter what.
It doesn't matter if the advice is not good, what I am afraid of is that there is no suggestion. Jiang Qinqin's unhappiness comes from this!
What does it mean that men are unreliable?
Li Tang was also very unhappy when he heard it, originally everyone was happy with each other, wishful thinking, he did not deliberately hide the fact that he still had a little fat. The lack of advice is that the matter is too significant and beyond the scope of the relationship.
So he didn't say well: "You want me to give you some advice, okay, I'll give you advice, that's the same as me, it's a big deal to stand up for yourself and run a single gang!" ”
Even though his attitude is bad, it's better than no attitude. Jiang Qinqin instantly laughed: "Then you might as well sign me." ”
Li Tang didn't believe it at all, and mocked: "You're not afraid of being confused?" ”
Just kidding, which popular star would dare to sign him for such a small studio that has just started to run independently.
Jiang Qinqin said indifferently: "You're not afraid of what I'm afraid of, besides, didn't your agent ask me when the contract will be completed last time!" ”
"Who asked you, Sister An?" Li Tang looked inexplicable.
"What Sister An, it's your Jiajiabei, you were also there at the scene."
Li Tang had long forgotten that there was such a thing, but seeing that Jiang Qinqin didn't seem to be joking, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "This is different, we were still in Sister An's company at that time, so there are still resources more or less." Look at what I have now? Nothing! Even if you dare to sign it, I don't dare to sign it. Really, I'm here for your good! ”
Jiang Qinqin originally said the same, but it seems that the more she talks about it, the more excited she becomes. She is not short of money, and with her current popularity, she is not short of resources, she wants to have freedom more. As Li Tang just suggested angrily, it seems to be a good choice to set up a studio and set up your own door. But if it is signed in Li Tang's studio, she believes that Li Tang will never force herself to do things she doesn't like, which is not only free, but also saves her all kinds of troubles in setting up a studio. What's more, if he signs a contract, there will be more of a partnership relationship between the two, and Fan Binbin doesn't know how to feel when the time comes......
At this time, Fan Xiaopang even appeared in her mind, and she couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.
Seeing this, Li Tang didn't know what kind of wind she was smoking, so he said helplessly: "What are you laughing at, what I said is true." ”
Jiang Qinqin covered her mouth and laughed, and after a while, she picked up her wine glass and said, "I know what you said is true, it's okay, it's okay, come on, have another drink." ”
Anyway, this kind of thing is not in a hurry, the contract between himself and Aunt Qiongyu's company will not be completed until the end of the year, and everything will have to be discussed in the long run.
……
"Oh, the young man is in good spirits, God is going around!"
Xu Guangtou came out of the airport's domestic arrival gate, saw Li Tang, and ran over with his suitcase and laughed and teased.
"Big guy, isn't it the same for Nong, all the deputy outfits are worn out, and they are ready to deceive the little girl?" Li Tang also laughed and teased each other.
Xu Guangtou wore a dark beret today, and it may not matter what clothes you wear for a bald head, but the hat must be the most important.
In addition to the trendy dark beret, this product has a plaid shirt with a hooded navy blue short coat on the upper body, and a pair of gray woolen trousers with straight seams on the bottom. The whole person looks like a proper yuppie man!
Hey, that's the coquettish coffee shop owner Tiger depicted in the script! Look at Zhang Yang again, that face full of the fragrance of the earth doesn't match at all!
Today, Xu Guangtou's girlfriend Xiao Taohong was unable to pick up the airport, mainly because Xiao Taohong won the Golden Eagle Award and the Feitian Award in one fell swoop with the TV series "Empty Mirror" last year, and after the film appointments, she had no time to take care of her boyfriend. And they are already planning to get married next year, and the wedding houses in Beijing and Shanghai have been purchased, so they can earn more money before they get married.
Talking and laughing all the way, Li Tang sent Xu Guangtou downstairs to Xiao Taohong's residence.
"Big guy, wash the dust for Nong at night. In addition, the show should be arranged? ”
Although Xu Guangtou was very excited, the capital was a small peach's territory after all, and he was not afraid of 10,000, so he finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, I still have a lot of things to do there, the Ming Dynasty will go directly to the crew, start filming early and finish work early!" ”
