my crew is not human

Chapter 69 The First Signed Artist

In the hotel coffee bar.

Li Xianyun ordered a cup of black tea for Qin Yulin.

"Does it still hurt?" Li Xianyun asked pretendingly.

Qin Yubin smiled all over his face: "There is still a little bit, how about you rub it for me, Director Li?"

As he spoke, he put his feet on Li Xianyun's lap, revealing his snow-white and sexy calves, swaying charmingly under the light.

Li Xianyun grabbed her tender little feet and kneaded them casually a few times, the hands felt smooth and sultry.

Even if it is not foot control, it will fall in love with it.

While enjoying it, Li Xianyun said, "By the way, Yuyan, how long have you been an actor?"

"It's been three years, unfortunately, there have been no good opportunities." Qin Yuyan replied softly.

"How old is this year?" Li Xianyun asked again.

"Hey, it's impolite to ask someone's age." Qin Yulin gave him a charming look.

"If you don't want to say it, forget it." Director Li Xiao is now promoted to director Li Zhong, and his tone of picking up girls is hard.

Qin Yu hurriedly said, "21."

"It's okay." Li Xianyun said.

"You can't get anywhere. Actresses are out of action once they pass [-]. What we eat is youth food, unlike you, who eat talent."

Hehe, what I ate was ghosts.

Li Xianyun smiled.

Actresses are getting older, and it is indeed difficult to take on roles.

But if you really want to say it's because of your age, it may not be so!
Actresses in their 40s, as long as they take good care of themselves, look no different from those in their 20s, but their acting skills are even better. Even Shen Rong and Qin Yubin now look like sisters.

Liu Xiaoqing still plays the girl in her 50s.

The real difficulty lies not in the image on the screen, but in the fact that no big boss is willing to praise it—after all, the contact with the big boss is undisguised, the skin is slack, the skin is old, the eyes are not good, and the fishtails in the corners of the eyes do not feel good. It's even more unappetizing for the baby to have a scar...

But if you meet a big boss who is willing to "grow the old", there are also a lot of actresses in their 40s who continue to be popular.

such as……

Forget it, let’s not compare it.Food has to be eaten, roads have to be walked, and people have to live to speak their conscience...

Seeing that he didn't answer, Qin Yujian sighed and said, "It's really hard for an actor to become famous. To have a good script, a good director, and a big production, the most important thing is to have someone to support you."

"Not only to praise, but also to be strong." Li Xianyun said casually.

Qin Yujian gave Li Xianyun a charming look: "Which aspect are you referring to?"

Li Xianyun has a deep meaning: "All directions."

Qin Yuyan smiled without saying a word.

Li Xianyun put down her feet, thought for a while and said, "Your acting skills still need to be honed."

These words made Qin Yulin a little disappointed, even a little dissatisfied.

No matter how bad an actor's acting skills are, he is unwilling to admit that his acting skills are bad, and he even thinks that the judges are blind if he doesn't win a grand slam—the judges are indeed blind, and they even give awards to bad actors.

Li Xianyun didn't need her to admit it, and said directly: "You have some characteristics. If you can make a few decent films, you may not be popular, but there is hope for the third line. If you are lucky, you can also reach the second line."

Qin Yuyan let out a long sigh.

It's about the same as my aunt said.

Qin Yu was successful and defeated by the charm.

An actor like her is not suitable to be a heroine, she is very talented to be the second and third female lead.

But for the vast majority of unknown actors, the second and third lines are the pursuit.

As long as they can become third-tier, the asking price of the film salary will start at one million. If you are lucky and meet a generous boss, it may be close to ten million.

The value of a person, after all, depends on everyone's ability to fool.

In a popular movie back then, a third-tier female artist was not even the third female artist, and she didn't have many shots in total. She was filming a special role, but got a salary of 300 million.As for whether the 300 million miles include sleeping companions or rebates, no one knows.

Li Xianyun doesn't like fooling around, so he made it clear.

But for Qin Yumin, she is now a tiny person, the second and third tiers are the pinnacle of her life.

She leaned over and pointed her pretty face at Li Xianyun: "If you are not good at acting, you can be trained. That Dong Zixin is just a student, so he was trained by Director Li, right? He wants to learn from Director Li."

The tone focuses on the word "tune".

Li Xianyun smiled: "I haven't signed an artist yet, but Yisheng Media's signing an artist is in principle an exclusive contract."

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment: "If you haven't signed an artist before, does that mean you don't have experience in promoting artists?"

My aunt never told me about this.

"Yes." Li Xianyun replied with certainty.

Qin Yubin immediately hesitated.

It is not that simple to praise an artist, and it also requires a dedicated team.

It takes an entire team to do styling, establish people, do marketing, create topics, promote strongly, and organize fan clubs for artists.

Without enough fans, it is still difficult to think of acting works only.

The work is the cornerstone, and marketing is the amplifier.

The cornerstone of Yisheng Media is average, and there is no amplifier...

Qin Yu looked at Li Xianyun: "Then do you have any plans for this?"

"For the time being, there is no dedicated star creation team, basically through film and television to create stars." Li Xianyun replied.

I go.

Then your exclusive contract is a bit too much.

I have to point to your movie being popular, if the movie doesn't catch on, won't I stop cooking?

But Wang Da is really hard to praise!

But Qin Yu was unwilling to give up just like that, she carefully asked: "Will I be the heroine?"

Li Xianyun shook his head: "Look at the script for details. The proprietress you played is not bad, it suits you better."

"Then what if there are no such characters in your script?" Qin Yujian asked immediately.

"If you don't have one, add it. It's simple. What can't be guaranteed is just the role. Specifically..." Li Xianyun smiled: "It depends on the situation."

Qin Yulin understood.

After thinking about it, she smiled wryly, "You are a very frank director. At least in this regard, your character is much better than others."

Everything is missing in the crew, that is, there is no shortage of bragging.

Any trashy little guy would dare to brag about his ability.

No way, this is the way it is in this business, people in the crew come and go, every time the crew starts up, they are a bunch of strangers to each other, why don't you rely on bragging?Once the crew is finished, whether they can meet again next time is a question.

Only blow!
Believe it or not, I will impress you first. One point is ten points. If you believe in three points, I will earn it.

Wasn't that the boss Chen back then? Even the professional director Rong Dasheng was fooled into overestimating a movie worth over 100 million, and judged it to be 200 million.

Li Xianyun nodded: "I know that some people will do whatever it takes to achieve their goals, but I am not. I prefer to be open and bright, and say what I have. It's easy to get together and leave, and don't complain afterwards."

"I'm afraid I can't accept it." Qin Yubin shook his head: "The exclusive contract is long, once you choose the wrong person, your whole life will be over."

"But you came anyway."

"Auntie said you have a future."

"Then why hesitate?"

"You have a future, but it doesn't mean your artists have a future."

To too!
Under the big companies, there are still piles of small artists who have not become famous.

Qin Yulin is now an artist of a big company anyway, but he will not jump out if he has a chance in Huayou.

Li Xianyun said: "That's right. Let's do this, a three-year contract, guaranteeing at least three dramas every year, at least one female second, and the remuneration depends on the situation. During this period, it is allowed to accept dramas from other crews, as long as it is in advance Say hello and stagger the arrangements, but you are not allowed to accept endorsements and commercial performances in private. Of course, if the company cannot provide resources, it is also possible as long as you are willing to hand over [-]% of the commercial performances you receive to the company. If it is a company If you pick it up, pour thirty-seven. In addition..."

Li Xianyun thought for a while, and said: "If the performance of the film is good and your popularity is not bad, the company can consider assigning a special team for you, including assistants, agents, etc., but the scale will not be very large, because there is no one before. I have done it, but I can only cross the river by feeling the stones, so this is a verbal promise and cannot be written into the contract, I have to decide according to the situation.”

Qin Yujian hesitated when he heard it.

There is not much money, and there is no guarantee of a role, but the degree of freedom is relatively high... A three-year contract is considered short, and greedy companies start in ten years.People don't need to hold on to it, the contract is definitely not short, and maybe they will sneak into you anyway. After a bunch of verbal promises, they will not admit it when they pull up their pants.

Li Xianyun's conditions are already extremely generous. If it were a film and television company like Ren Zhi, they wouldn't dare to promise you one movie a year.

But how dare you blow it!

As long as it is not written into the contract, Cameron Nolan Quentin will be there whenever he is called. An investment of [-] million is a fart, and a billion is called a start. It is still Mijin.

At this moment, Qin Yuyan thought about it and said, "Each play must have an investment quota."

Li Xianyun replied: "An investment of at least tens of millions of dollars a year, if you perform well, you will consider at least one as the heroine."

This condition is quite good for her now.

"Within three years, there must be a theater with a sales of 3000 million, and the female lead should not be less than 500 million, and these must be included in the contract." Qin Yujian still wants to fight for it.

Just then the phone rang, and Li Xianyun saw that the assistant had sent him a bunch of scripts.

He smiled and said: "What you promise, you can write it in the contract, and you can't write what you can't guarantee. Oh, Huayou just sent me a bunch of scripts. If it goes well, there may be a movie theater next." , The investment scale is estimated to not be less than 3000 million, but the investment is too large, and I definitely can't give you the first girl, and I am sure about the third girl."

Qin Yu was instantly excited.

Li Xianyun said: "But I still hope to make another ten-million-level online university before that. The meal needs to be eaten one bite at a time. Well, it should not be impossible to cooperate with Huayou in two. There are many scripts, There should be a role that suits you, besides, I am a script background..."

As he spoke, he looked at Qin Yubin: "Has the person in the same room as you left?"

Qin Yubin smiled: "I've already left, I'm the only one now, I haven't checked out yet."

Li Xianyun hummed, and said bluntly, "Then let's stay another night and study the script."
