Ye Ming took the kettle and said to Li Dachuan: "Shut up, Xiaoqin, go about your business, don't be acquainted with this guy, we are waiting for Uncle Liang, there is an audition opportunity, we can't miss it. , I’ll see you later when Uncle Liang comes.” Xiaoqin grunted and spared Li Dachuan, glanced at Ye Ming and said, "Brother Ming, what are you still determined to do? If you ask me, it's better to find a serious job and earn money down-to-earth. " A serious job? It turns out that in the eyes of Xiaoqin, the waiter, this is not a serious job. Li Dachuan was speechless for a while, and he suddenly felt decadent. He no longer wanted to argue with Xiaoqin to show off. At half past seven, just before Li Dachuan was about to go crazy, Uncle Liang finally walked in with a short, fat middle-aged man. This middle-aged man has a bit of bald hair and a round head like a ball. He looks very kind and cute. Li Dachuan suddenly jumped up and ran over as if there were springs on his butt, pulling Uncle Liang over. As Li Dachuan walked away, he said, "Uncle Liang, I've been looking forward to your coming. If you don't come, I will starve to death at this dinner table." Uncle Liang couldn't do anything with Li Dachuan. Fortunately, Ye Ming stood up, took out the Chinese cigarette, and asked the guests to sit down at the host's seat, thus avoiding the awkward situation. According to the rules of the entertainment park, in terms of seniority, Ye Ming and Li Dachuan are the only ones who sit at the end of the table.
This is also a rule, what status and where to sit, there is absolutely no mistake. Once, a big star went to a banquet and was given a second seat. As a result, the big star didn't give him any face and left without looking back. People can't afford to fall into that position. After Uncle Liang sat down, he hurriedly introduced: "Brother Chen, this is Ye Ming, and the one over there is Li Dachuan. They are two good juniors of mine. I ask you to take good care of you in the future." Listen carefully, Director Chen turns out to be from Emei Film Studio, he is a veteran and has a wide network of contacts in the industry. From now on, if Director Chen will protect you, you can call him Uncle Chen." At this time, Chen Zheng waved his hand very politely and said: "Xiao Liang, don't put a high hat on me. I am not Director Chen. I am just doing a favor to help Hunan TV. I am just an executive director. I am still a temporary one. At the end of the year I will officially retire. After finishing this work, maybe I will go back. After all, the entertainment industry is still dominated by young people like you." Although Chen Zheng was very polite when he spoke, he still had a condescending air, and there was a sense of distance between him and Ye Ming. Also, with someone like Chen Zheng, if Uncle Liang hadn't been his childhood friend and a good brother, he wouldn't even care to come here, let alone give Ye Ming and the others a chance. No matter what, it's still My Fair Princess, Qiong Yao's drama, as long as it's labeled as Qiong Yao, it's like a layer of gold in the entertainment industry. Ye Ming and Uncle Liang were with Chen Zheng on the left and right. At this time, Ye Ming took advantage of Xiaoqin that the food and wine had not yet been served, and quietly stuffed a kraft paper envelope into Chen Zheng's pocket. A thick five thousand yuan, real money. Chen Zheng also touched his pocket with very subtle movements. In an instant, people who were familiar with this kind of transaction could easily guess how much it was. At this moment, Chen Zheng's expression also softened, and he no longer had the condescending attitude just now. Instead, he looked much more amiable, as if he were an elder, and he opened the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes with satisfaction. Uncle Liang also struck while the iron was hot and said: "Brother Chen, you have put a lot of effort into the audition. You are welcome to these two little guys. If there is anything wrong, you will be beaten and scolded if you should." At this time, Chen Zhengcai glanced at Ye Ming meaningfully and said: "Xiao Liang, you gave me a difficult problem, which made me embarrassed for a long time. However, Ye Ming, if I remember correctly, you should be from Xinghua Film and Television Let’s sign an artist contract. Not long ago, we went to Hong Kong City for training for half a year.” Ye Ming immediately said politely: "Uncle Chen, don't worry, Xinghua Film and Television was disbanded a few days ago, and I am free now. Uncle Liang also quickly said: "Brother Chen, don't worry, I can guarantee this, Ye Ming is absolutely free. There is no actor under any contract." Chen Zheng nodded as if he meant something and said: "I know this, otherwise I wouldn't come. Let's put it this way, this time Qiong Yao's drama, Huan Zhu Ge Ge, is the second of Ms. Qiong Yao's two eternal series. One is a TV series co-produced with Hunan TV.' Originally, according to the rules of the crew, every actor had to sign a contract with Ms. Qiong Yao's agency. However, because this is a TV series co-produced by both sides of the Taiwan Strait, if I give you this audition opportunity, you must sign a contract with Yonghua Film and Television. As a representative of investors, we, Yonghua Film and Television, also have the right to recommend our own actors. Otherwise, why would we recommend you? "
Ye Ming knows this very well. There is no free lunch in the world. If you don't sign a contract with others, why will they give you a chance and make you famous? What opportunities will they get? Ye Ming seemed to understand something vaguely at this moment, as if there was a line appearing. However, he did not catch this line for a moment, and immediately said: "Uncle Chen, don't worry, I just want to find it." It’s a company. However, Yonghua and Xinghua, these two companies, there shouldn’t be any connection.” Chen Zheng looked at Ye Ming with a smile, nodded with great satisfaction and said: "Young man, you are smart. It is true. The boss of Yonghua Company, Huang Yonghua, is the enemy of your original boss of Xinghua Company, Huang Xinghua. Know me Why did you agree to Xiaoliang? Do you think the opportunity to audition is so easy to get? That's Qiong Yao's drama. Even if Qiong Yao's drama is not as popular as it was in previous years, no matter what, Ms. Qiong Yao's golden signature is still there, and others who are waiting will not have this opportunity. However, I mentioned your matter to the boss, and as soon as the boss heard that you were from Xinghua, he immediately settled on you. He said it. Huang Yonghua will definitely be able to support people who Huang Xinghua cannot support. It's interesting that these two brothers are natural enemies. Neither one is convinced by the other. Otherwise, do you think it would be your turn to have such a good opportunity? " The entertainment industry is cruel. Every day, there are so many people who dream of being successful and becoming famous overnight. However, there are only so many opportunities every year. There are countless people who died in the group performance. Countless people were photographed on this beach, and they didn't even have the chance to go ashore. Not to mention, there is a chance to touch the rookie wall. Ye Ming is actually a relatively good group performer. At least, he can break out from the many extra performers and have the opportunity to touch the rookie wall. If it weren't for the sudden collapse of Xinghua Film and Television without any warning, perhaps Ye Ming was trying to touch the wall of first-year rookies in the entertainment industry. No matter what, this is more or less an opportunity, and it is a very rare opportunity. Never mind Yonghua Xinghua brother Xiao Qiang. Ye Ming said very firmly: "No matter what, I have to thank Uncle Chen for giving me this opportunity." Chen Zheng saw that Ye Ming was not surprised at all, and he did not feel angry at all that he was being used. This young man gave him a very calm and mature feeling beyond his age. Could this be the actor from Xinghua Film and Television who didn't even have a chance to touch the rookie wall? If so, Yonghua's investment may be promising. At that moment, Chen Zheng said: "Well, now that you understand, I will give you an address and you can find Yonghua Film and Television. Then, someone will naturally receive you. Xiaoliang and Ye Ming have some acting experience, so As an actor who has trained in Hong Kong City for half a year, the chance to perform in this Qiongyao drama is still very high. However, Li Dachuan, you should try it. If you can get a supporting role, then it is already considered a good one. It worked out.” Li Dachuan, in Chen Zheng's opinion, is still a bit unstable. An actor with such a character is not very suitable in a Qiong Yao drama. However, this time, it may not be an exception. Even if Li Dachuan didn't get the chance to play the leading role this time, he was still very happy at this time. Being able to audition and get the chance to play a supporting role was a big improvement for him. Therefore, at this time, Li Dachuan did not feel the slightest frustration at all. Xiaoqin served wine and food, and Li Dachuan replaced Xiaoqin very attentively and took on the role of waiter. After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, everyone drank a lot, and naturally their feelings gradually developed. Chen Zheng was a friend who talked to Uncle Liang about everything. After drinking a little wine, Chen Zheng became even more excited and said: "Xiao Liang, to be honest, in fact, this time the Qiong Yao drama is not good. , to put it nicely, this is a co-production drama, but to put it bluntly, this is a stepmother’s child. Do you know how much investment this play cost? Let me tell you, million. This does not include the cost of post-production and publicity. In fact, what can be used for production is million. Let me go, million to shoot the Qiong Yao drama. , don’t make people laugh. " This is a big gossip, a super big gossip. One and a half million, for Ye Ming and others, is a high-end figure, but for a TV series, especially for a more expensive costume drama like Qiong Yao's drama. To be honest, it is indeed a bit stretched. The director needs money, the costumes and props need money, the venue rental and so on need money.
Money for post-production and publicity must be set aside in advance. Therefore, if you calculate it like this, you can only imagine how much money can fall on the actors. At this time, Ye Ming finally understood why Huanzhugege vigorously recruited new people. It’s nothing more than two words: remuneration. (To be continued)
