Actors have no vacation

Chapter 176 Resolved
Soon, the highest award in the film industry, the Golden Bull Award, will announce the nomination list.

At this time last year, [Xie Jinzhu Studio] had only been established for less than two months.On the day when the Jinniu shortlist was announced, Xie Jinzhu led the staff to have a dinner and drink together, predicting who will win each award, and having a small gamble for fun, which fully demonstrated the entertainment spirit of fringe artists in the entertainment industry who focus on participation.

Later, the atmosphere gradually became in place, Xie Jinzhu drank too much intentionally or unintentionally, suddenly stood up, took out the award acceptance speech that had been treasured for many years but was never used, and read it aloud.He thanked Teacher Xing, thanked Qian Liangyi, and thanked many people who had directly or indirectly helped him in the industry, and finally said, "I knew very early on that I was not a great horse. I have the intention of being a bole. Fortunately, my younger brothers and sisters are all talented actors, so my wish has become...become..." Xie Jinzhu turned around and clenched his fists, crying so hard that he couldn't continue.

An acceptance speech that eventually turned into a declaration of retirement.

Although Xie Jinzhu didn't intend to really retire, but he opened his studio to the wedding street, and his main business became a wedding performance intermediary, leading a group of outsiders to form a studio... To some extent, the effect of retiring is similar up.

At that time, the employees were also very sad when they heard it, but they didn't feel much, and they even felt a little relaxed in their hearts.After all, they are just ordinary people, they are engaged in the wedding industry, and they are not social elites. If Xie Jinzhu hopes to bring them back to the film and television industry, then they might as well prepare their resumes as soon as possible and contact them for their next job.

However, they never imagined that in just one year, they not only returned to the film and television industry, but also became the center of the industry related to the Golden Bull Award.

"The people from the distribution company called again, let us respond quickly to the online matter..." A staff member hugged his head in pain as soon as he put down the phone: "I'm just an ordinary customer service, Why did I suddenly have to be in charge of public relations!"

Employee B on the opposite side said while eating snacks: "Don't forget the ninth of Brother Chen's ten business principles."

Customer Service Staff A's eyes lit up: "Ninth of the Ten Business Principles - [Professional matters should be handled by professionals]. So, should I let professionals take over?"

Staff B's ​​hand holding the snack suddenly froze: "Wait, isn't the ninth principle [Stay Hungry]?"

Diagonally opposite, Staff C sneered and said, "You all have misremembered. The ninth principle is [always prepare for the worst]."

"Bullshit." "You guys are done, I want to tell Brother Chen."

The three started arguing endlessly, saying that the ninth principle they remembered was the real ninth principle.

Qian Liangyi on the side couldn't bear it any longer: "Stop doing all this stuff! Hurry up and get to work!" He knew that this was an argument with no winner.Because that [Ten Business Principles] was said by Guan Chen casually, he would always think of a sentence suddenly, and just put a number on it and say it as if it was very principled.In fact, Qian Liangyi has collected 25 "Ten Business Principles" in different forms.

The three stopped talking, but they were still arguing with each other's eyes.

Qian Liangyi was exhausted, and didn't understand how a good company suddenly became as unmanageable as a school.He returned to his seat, turned on the computer, and browsed Guan Chen's news on the Internet.

The new business created by Guan Chen broke up several couples. Some victims who won the lottery attributed the source of the conflict to Guan Chen, and wrote a long essay to defend their rights.Guan Chen ignored it, but some tabloids and marketing accounts acted like hyenas with a keen sense of smell, and began to catch rumors, saying that Guan Chen was suspected of embezzling money, abusing fans, and arrogant.

Just this morning, the scale of these negative news promotions suddenly escalated, and the words used became more sensational.Some even combined the "revealing news" from unknown sources, and began to analyze Guan Chen's view of love, concluding that he is a cold-blooded man who hates beautiful love.

And the comments below are all expressing "great disappointment", "unexpected", "disgusting", "seeing the true face"...

Qian Liangyi has been in the industry for many years, so he can naturally see that there is a driving force behind this matter.

Throughout the year, movies that are aspiring to compete for awards have basically completed their release early, and then left a lot of time for publicity and public relations.The sudden emergence of Guan Chen was completely unexpected. In a commercial blockbuster, he just played a role that cannot be ignored in the film industry.Even though the judges of Taurus are extremely against commercial blockbusters, they can't ignore Guan Chen against their conscience and the reputation of Taurus.The day after the premiere of the film, Zhang Jingsheng greeted Xie Jinzhu's studio, saying that the distributor was going to help Guan Chen make all efforts to publicize the "Best Newcomer" award.Zhang Jingsheng said that although they didn't have much time left, they had great confidence, because compared with the acting skills of those newcomers in the film industry, Guan Chen's level of acting was crushing.

No one expected that a semi-retired Xie Jinzhu would dig out such a piece of jade.

However, the shortcoming of the small temple and shallow water is that it cannot withstand strong winds and waves.

Guan Chen just revealed a little flaw that is not considered a flaw, but was grabbed by those sneaky people, magnified, and smeared.

Those who were blocked by Guan Chen, and those who might be blocked by Guan Chen in the future, didn't mind taking a handful of soft persimmons.

Qian Liangyi had a headache.Because of Guan Chen's troubles, the work in the studio piled up a lot, Qian Liangyi had to open up a second office, went home early to work, and didn't go to the office for the next few days.Therefore, I don't know what happened afterwards, and I don't know what kind of cruel method Guan Chen used to ruin the happiness of that guest.

But what made Qian Liangyi even more troublesome was that the external enemies were coming fiercely, and the internal battle lines had not yet been unified.

According to Xie Jinzhu, the studio will not abandon or give up, and must keep Guan Chen at all costs.The problem is, Guan Chen himself doesn't care at all.I don't care about the gains and losses of awards, and I don't care about the slander of netizens.

Qian Liangyi respectfully asked Guan Chen to log on to his Weibo account where he could post seven or eight updates a day, and say something.In fact, it’s just a small piece of nonsense, as long as you say it clearly, you can reduce the loss. If you don’t say anything, it will be used by those who are interested in it, slandering it as a guilty conscience, and those netizens who wait and see rationally will also be pushed to the opposite side. .

However, Guan Chen has been busy with short film shooting these days, Wei Tedeng doesn't log in very often, and he can't get through to his phone.If there were not seven or eight people on the set who proved that they had seen Guan Chen in real life, otherwise Qian Liangyi almost thought that Guan Chen had run away.

Going on like this is not an option.Qian Liangyi turned off the computer, told the staff to "work hard and don't make noise" like a class teacher, and then drove to the set to find Guan Chen.

The short film that Guan Chen and the others are shooting now is called "Mango", and the newlyweds who came here on the first afternoon play the leading roles.

The two young directors deserved to be from a professional background. They wrote hundreds of words of annotations on the word mango, saying that the word "mang" in "mango" has a "die", which symbolizes the demise of love... …Mango is the woman’s favorite flavor of milk tea, but there will not be a frame of mango in the whole film, just like the truth of this memory, people have only heard of it but never seen it...

After the quarrel that day, the hero and heroine are in the cold war stage, and they are a little awkward and uncomfortable when they meet each other.

Guan Chen spoke quickly and said happily, this awkward atmosphere is really great, it's really like two people who don't know each other on a first date.

Qian Liangyi knew at that time that if Guan Chen became the director one day, the actors who unfortunately fell into his hands would definitely be miserable.

Now Guan Chen's position is producer.

Usually, in the producer-centered film industry, the producer has the highest status on the set. From the topic selection and planning at the beginning of the project to the marketing decision after the completion of the film, it can be said that every aspect of this project has the highest status. The filmmakers can control it, not to mention the filming studio.

Qian Liangyi didn't know how domineering Guan Chen would be, what his set would be like after he got this kind of power.

Walking to the set means walking to the university alma mater of the hero and heroine.

Here is the end of their date, and the last scene where the list was filmed.

Guan Chen and the others, as off-campus personnel, had to apply to enter the school to take pictures.Guan Chen felt that it took too long, so he spent some money to find the film club of this university, and used the form of outsourcing and sponsorship to come in and shoot in the name.

When Qian Liangyi found Guan Chen and the others, they were filming.

The same scene needs to be shot twice.

Once is the man's memory, beautiful and light.

Once is the woman's memory, depressed and uncomfortable.

Except for the setting and costumes being the same, everything else—the lines, the tone, and even the extras—is different these two times.

The two young directors happened to be in charge of one side, and they did not affect each other's creation.They are like two lawyers, using images and lines to defend the memories of their respective clients.

After watching it for a while, Qian Liangyi accidentally discovered that the plot seemed quite interesting.What surprised him even more was that Guan Chen sat behind the machine the whole time without pointing fingers.Even if some parts of the hero and heroine were not well acted, the director let the assistant teacher sent by [Xing Yan Acting Training Class] to guide the performance.

"The fifth of the ten business principles - [professional matters, leave it to professionals]," Liu Lihao walked over to Qian Liangyi at some point.

Qian Liangyi gave Liu Lihao a sideways look, but didn't speak.

Liu Lihao didn't care either.As long as you don't mention driving him away, he is a very good-tempered person, with a smile deeply burned on his face, and he is kind to anyone.

"It's not flattery. If you measure a producer by the ability to solve problems, my junior brother really has this talent." Liu Lihao looked at Guan Chen's figure in the distance and praised: "At the beginning, I was just like you. I thought he would be as funny on the set as he was in the studio. But it didn’t turn out. In the past few days, for problems related to shooting, I have to find the director, and for problems other than shooting, I have to find the younger brother to solve it, no matter what the problem is. The younger brother is considered If you don’t become an actor, you are still a talent in society.”

Qian Liangyi turned his head to look at Liu Lihao, and asked, "You won't have a share of those things on the Internet, will you?"

"How is it possible." Liu Lihao shook his head: "I still hoped to drink soup with my junior brother, but it won't do me any good if he falls down."

"Isn't it because you wanted to dig Guan Chen and sell it to other companies, but found that ordinary methods couldn't do it at all, so you simply broke down the studio. In this way, Guan Chen has no land to take root, so it's easy to dig. In addition, you have been hanging around Guan Chen, so you know the best conditions to attract him." Qian Liangyi sighed: "Why do you make it so troublesome? Any company that wants it, just let me know. I can match it."

"Hahaha," Liu Lihao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I know that I'm not a good guy, but you also think of me a little too darkly. I understand that you want to drive me away, but don't use this reason, it's so ugly."

"That's a pity." Qian Liangyi shook his head, left Liu Lihao behind, and walked towards Guan Chen humming.

Liu Lihao looked at Qian Liangyi's back and stopped smiling.

Qian Liangyi walked through the set, said hello to the apprentice of the neighbor [Aimei Photography], nodded to the barber of [Red Makeup Beauty] at the head of the street, and handed a root to the owner of [Huaqianshu Gallery] at the end of the street. Yan... finally walked to the side of Guan Chen who was squatting on the ground basking in the light.

"What do you say, "Police Story" is going to send you a public relations team." Qian Liangyi squatted next to Guan Chen, followed Guan Chen's gaze, and saw several college students in the distance. Being late, they grabbed their books and ran to the teaching building desperately.

Very ordinary picture, neither good-looking people nor good-looking clothes.But Guan Chen was fascinated by this.

"What do you think?" Guan Chen asked Qian Liangyi back.

Qian Liangyi thought for a while, and felt that Guan Chen should not be asking those college students in front of him if they would be late.

"You can listen to the advice of experts first." Qian Liangyi replied.

"What does the elder brother say?"

"He said it's up to you, and told me not to worry, because you are not a person who will sit and wait for death, you are very similar to him." Qian Liangyi took off his glasses, wiped them with a handkerchief, and quietly rolled his eyes.

Guan Chen laughed after hearing this.

"Are you really prepared?" Qian Liangyi remained skeptical.

Guan Chen rested his chin in his hand, and said lazily: "Do you need any special preparations? There are many ways. For example, tell that unlucky guy, give him 200 million, and ask him to delete that short essay, saying it's private." After he collects the money and deletes the small composition, I will take the chat records and transfer records to the police station to report the case, and I can say that I have been extorted."

"...It's too insidious, it's not good for your reputation."

"I know, so I'm going to use a softer approach." Guan Chen said, "After all, I want to be a good person."

Qian Liangyi remained silent. [Be a good person] These four words, some people say it like gold and jade, and some people say it like spitting everywhere.He didn't say what kind of Guan Chen was.

"How gentle?" Qian Liangyi asked.

Guan Chen threw over a hard drive.

Qian Liangyi borrowed the photographer's laptop and opened it.What a surprise and delight.

Fortunately, the content on the hard drive was the video of interviewing the newlyweds that day.

Surprisingly, this guy Guan Chen installed a camera in the office without anyone noticing, which is not gentle at all.

I don't know if Guan Chen knew what he secretly scolded Guan Chen when he was away... Qian Liangyi thought worriedly.

Guan Chen seemed to know what Qian Liangyi was thinking, and explained: "I just use this for emergencies when negotiating with customers."

N of principles—always prepare for the worst...Qian Liangyi said silently in his heart. It has to be said that these seemingly nonsensical sentences were set by Guan Chen, and knowledge and action were united.

Qian Liangyi started watching the video.

He was not in the office that day, so this is the first time he knows the specific content.

The video is very complete and professional. In the picture that Guan Chen's camera is aiming at, there is a wall clock on the wall.There is a functioning wall clock in the picture, which can let people watching the video understand that the video has not been edited.

The couple entered, signed the contract, and dispersed to write memories, which was no different from the processes Qian Liangyi saw on the first afternoon.There was no problem until Guan Chen took the transcript and began to torture... until he began to perfect the script.

Guan Chen compared the two transcripts, relying on the professionalism from the literature department of a prestigious university, he quickly discovered the problems hidden between the lines.

Guan Chen pointed to a certain line on the paper, and used [You were at the Internet cafe that afternoon? ],【Are you really in the Internet cafe that afternoon? 】,【Between 2230:2 pm and 14:[-] pm on February [-], [-], are you sure you are playing games in an Internet cafe? 】

The person involved was in a trance and sweated profusely when asked.

In the end, under the gaze of Guan Chen Ruju, the client failed to withstand the pressure and confessed that he went shopping with his colleagues that day.The face of the wife on the side changed, and she immediately asked: [Is that Xiaoli?Have you promised me that you will never see her again! ...] Then came the familiar quarrel.Liu Lihao handed over a tissue to the woman at the right time, and the legal counsel also handed over a business card at the right time.

"It's fine." Qian Liangyi put away the hard drive, and his expression became much more relaxed: "So many people spend money to buy promotions for you, it's a pity not to use it. When will your short film be ready?"

Guan Chen asked, "When is senior brother not busy?"

"In another four days, he seems to have a variety show to record, so he can take a break that day."

Guan Chen understood, and replied: "The post-production of this short film is not annoying, three days should be fine."

Qian Liangyi thought for a while: "No, I remembered wrongly, the variety show seems to be recorded three days later."

"It will be fine in two days."

"Ah," Qian Liangyi slapped his head, "I suddenly remembered that it was actually two days..."

Guan Chen hit the back of Qian Liangyi's thigh with a whip.

Qian Liangyi knelt down on the ground, not daring to try again.
