Start acting today

Chapter 48
Time is like colorful neon lights, flashing so yellow and white that you can't open your eyes, the eyelids are heavy, and he feels drowsy.

I stayed up all night yesterday to finish chasing "Lovers in Angel Bay". Although the plot is a bit dull and mixed with dog blood, the hero and heroine are really good. Now it is approaching noon, and the tiredness is getting stronger.

It wasn't until the phone vibrated that Huang Baiyou woke up a little. The caller was Hong Zijian.

"Welcome Ms. Huang to join our crew of "The Gun Goes to the Board". As for the specific remuneration, I would like to use a middleman as a guarantee and not sign a contract." Hong Zijian cut to the point.

Very good, hard work and popularity are not in vain!Huang Baiyou also liked the straightforward way of communication, he listened quietly to Hong Zijian's follow-up.

It is definitely not possible to sign a contract, say how many red envelopes will be given after the movie is over, in a legal sense, this is considered labor income, and playing Hu Fusheng is also a commercial act.

Then the salary of millions of dollars has no guarantee at all, not to mention that Huang Baiyou is worried, even Hong Zijian himself is worried about himself.

There must be an intermediary guarantee. Although it is only a verbal guarantee, as long as the intermediary is found well, there will be a binding effect.

The intermediary chosen by the producer is Zhou Xilin, who is also Huang Baiyou recommended by Zhou. At the same time, Zhou and Hong Zijian are also friends for many years, and there is no problem on both sides.

Of course, Hong Zijian must have called and communicated with Zhou Xilin before proposing a middleman, and the latter expressed his willingness to help.

"Producer Hong is very thoughtful." Huang Baiyou agreed.

"Since this is the case, we are also talking about business." Hong Zijian was a little embarrassed, because he hadn't directly quoted the price with the actor, and he always talked with the agent or the business department of the agency.

"About the red envelope, what does Mr. Huang expect?" Hong Zijian said, "I also know that Mr. Huang's acting career is temporarily suspended due to various conflicts with the company. He just needs a chance to prove himself, and our crew will not deliberately lower the price."

"But let me tell you the truth, the investment from Emperor and Jingxi Culture is only 2000 million, so our crew does not have sufficient funds." Hong Zijian even made such a pass before Huang Baiyou made an offer.

As an old businessman, Huang Baiyou quoted slightly hesitantly, "I will definitely guarantee the acting skills of the audition clips and cooperate with the director's shooting, and since the budget of the crew is not enough, can I do 110 million? My salary for the last film is 150 million. "

"Thank you, Mr. Huang, for your understanding." Hong Zijian said hastily, "If it wasn't for lack of money, who would be willing to break one cent into two cents?"

The details of joining the group were settled, and Hong Zijian hung up the phone without too many pleasantries. He couldn't help but smiled, "The acting talent is excellent, but he hasn't experienced severe beatings from the society. He is willing to lower his salary after a few words."

Even if Huang Baiyou's current reputation is not good, he is still hidden.But as far as Huang Baiyou's personal ability is concerned, the popularity of "Road of Life" will definitely reverse after it is released. The current salary of 110 million yuan is definitely a huge profit for the crew.

Of course, what the producer said just now is not all nonsense. The total investment of the crew is indeed about 5000 million yuan. You must know that the investment of "Road of Life" is more than [-] million yuan, which is a small cost in comparison.

So here comes the question, did Huang Baiyou suffer from the trick?
It's a tortoise, Huang Baiyou hangs up the phone and mutters, "The original psychological price is 100 million, Hong Producer is a bit impatient, and the cost can be lowered."

"But when the remuneration arrives in the account, it should be enough to pay the down payment." Huang Baiyou sighed, the housing prices in the capital are really high.

But if you don’t buy a house, it’s painful to pay more than 7000 yuan in rent every month. As for why you don’t rent it cheaper... Huang Baiyou’s job nature requires convenient transportation.

Having said that, if joining the group is delayed until after Christmas, then Huang Baiyou will definitely offer a salary that suits him, but the operation of the crew does not change according to the actor's will, at least not according to his will.

Maybe you can get a million and a half million if you struggle a lot, but in comparison, it's better to sell a producer's favor and let the other party think that your little trick has succeeded.

The key point is that this part of the income is not shared with the company, only taxes are paid, and the income is even higher than that of the previous drama.

Huang Baiyou felt that most of the invisible burden on his shoulders was relieved, breaking Xue Zang's control, and he starred in "Passing the Gun and Walking the Board" in friendship.

He had only just figured out the difference between a guest star, a special star, a lead star, and a co-star.

"What is this?" Huang Baiyou was a little surprised, and opened the door to a new world.

In the past, there were not so many titles in front of the starring role, because the fan circle was getting more and more serious, and every fan wanted their idol to be the leading role.Now it is not called female one female two, and there is no male protagonist and male second, but there are double male protagonists and double female protagonists.

"Why didn't the original body know... Oh, the original body's coffee position has not yet reached the qualifications for the fan position, so it's okay." Huang Baiyou muttered.

Even in the promotional materials, the proportion of the characters on the posters has to be scrambled, and the artist's official exit also happens from time to time, which is really exciting.

Facing the crazy situation of competing for position, Huang Baiyou's only feeling is that it is so easy to make money in the fan circle.Because it can be in full swing, the brokerage company will be indispensable behind it.The only way to drive capitalists is streetlights and profits. Obviously, fighting for positions is a profitable business.

"Oh? Zhou Xilin..." Huang Baiyou came back to his senses, "Oops, I almost forgot the serious business after watching the fun."

After the negotiation is settled, you must take the initiative to thank the recommender.

Huang Baiyou answered the phone, and before he could speak, the other end of the phone spoke first, "I didn't expect Tianyu Media to block you, and it's also my fault for giving Lao Hong a dilemma. Fortunately, you have thought of a solution."

"Don't worry, Bai You. I know Lao Hong well. Even if there is no contract, I will definitely give you what is due. If there is any problem, I will help you collect debts!" ​​Zhou Xilin said.

"Brother Zhou gave me the feeling of just one word, reliable! My heart fell safely." Huang Baiyou asked with concern, "How is Brother Zhou's mood recently?"

The reason why I asked this question was because Zhou Xilin mentioned earlier that Su Fuguang gave himself a punch with remorse, and that he had already hurt himself, which is not a good sign.

"..." Zhou Xilin was silent for a long time, and the sound of breathing gradually became heavy, as if his chest was suddenly squeezed. It lasted for half a minute before the sound of breathing slowed down.

"It's not a big problem, brother, prepare for the new play well..." Speaking of what Xi Lin seemed to think of this week, he quickly added, "The body is the foundation that supports your ambitions. Even if you are messing around, you must pay attention to safety measures."

I only heard Zhou Xilin continue to say, "It's an artist under Tianyu Media. I forgot the name. It was revealed that she was sent to the hospital to treat sexually transmitted diseases. The news was suppressed and did not appear on the trending searches."

STD, it can't be He Qiao, right?Huang Baiyou suddenly thought of it.

"I still cherish the dog's life very much, Brother Zhou, don't worry." Huang Baiyou replied.

"If I hadn't seen you desperately lose weight for the role, I would have believed your words." Zhou Xilin said: "You can do your best in acting, but don't try your best. I still have something to do, so I'll die first."

Both parties hung up the phone, and called again within five seconds. Huang Baiyou thought that Zhou Xilin had forgotten something, but it seemed that the caller was "Mom", and fell silent for a while.
