The Godfather of Almighty Entertainment

Chapter 1722 What is the use of professional ethics
"Not only have I seen it, I also know that you have the nickname of wicked little prince in your country." Emily said.

"It's all a false name, it's not important, don't care about that." Xu Juan immediately said that the false name is not important.

"No, that's not only important, but also very important!" Emily immediately disagreed with Xu Duan's statement when she heard the words, and answered Xu Duan directly in Chinese, could it be unimportant?The more she understood Xu Duan, the more she felt that she had to be cautious when cooperating with this grandson, because many celebrities of the Republic had taught her that if she was not careful, she might fall into a pit when cooperating with that grandson.

"You can also speak Chinese!" Xu Juan was even more surprised when he heard that. He was indeed surprised, because Emily's Chinese is not the strange accent of a foreigner, but Mandarin with a perfect accent, which is very standard. Who would be surprised to hear a foreigner speak Mandarin so standard.

"It's no surprise that you know Chinese, don't you also know English?" Emily said disapprovingly.

"So you actually want to expand your reputation in the Chinese entertainment industry?" Xu Duan said.

what?
Emily was surprised when she heard this, and wondered why this grandson is so smart?He could guess this with just a few words, and immediately shook his head and said, "No, I only learn Chinese because I like Chinese better, it has nothing to do with anything else." She didn't want Xu Duan to know what she wanted to do, because it was very difficult. It may affect the price of Xu Duan talking to her about the salary for a while.

"Really?" Xu Duan asked.

"Of course, I just like Chinese culture, and it has nothing to do with my profession." Emily said with a natural look on her face.

"Then what works of mine have you seen?" Xu Duan asked.

"I've also watched Wulin Biography and I'm a Singer." Emily said, "But I didn't watch all of them, I just picked and watched a few episodes."

"Then if I ask you to act in the part of Wulin Biography, can you do it well?" Xu Duan posed a problem for Emily, which is indeed a problem, because there are shadows of traditional martial arts in Wulin Biography. There is a core, and these things are part of traditional Chinese culture, which is not so easy for foreigners to understand, and it is not easy to understand, acting?It is too difficult to perform to the point of perfection.

"It's hard." Emily shook her head when she heard the words, and didn't say that I could act well. Although Wulin Biography and Love Apartment are both sitcoms, they are completely different things. Generally speaking, Wulin Biography In fact, it uses modern people's thinking to understand ancient martial arts culture, and iPartment is purely the modern logic of modern thinking, and many things in iPartment are actually from the sitcoms of the Big Bang Theory in the West, so for Emily It is not difficult to say, but Wulin Biography involves the thinking mode of Chinese culture, which is a part that is difficult for her to understand.

It’s just that what Emily said made Xu Duan have great expectations for Emily’s acting skills, because from this point of view, Emily has fully realized that acting is not just about being able to act, at least she has She understands that acting and culture are inseparable. She has achieved the level of blending acting skills into culture. This is a very high state, and it is not far from the state of forgetting things and me mentioned by Xu Duan. .

"I'm just a very simple sitcom, can't you do this?" Xu Duan's grandson is so wicked, even if he knows that Emily's poor acting is not because of poor acting skills, he can't say it, because he will have to do it later. How about bargaining with Emily? Can he just admit that Emily is very powerful?Why don't you find something for yourself?Is he so wicked that he can do such a thing?At that time, I said that I was very embarrassed about Emily's acting skills.

"Because it involves the cultural part. Although I like Chinese culture, I don't understand it very well, so it's hard to grasp it well." Emily is honest, she never expected that Xu Duan's grandson and such a place are waiting for him Woolen cloth.

"Then how can you guarantee that you can act in my movie well? After all, I am from China." Xu Duan's grandson was really weak, and when he heard this, he immediately questioned Emily as if he had found some loophole.

"Didn't you make me play a Westerner?" asked Emily.

"But after all, you're playing the lead actress that I made." Xu Duan took it for granted, "How can you do this if you don't understand Chinese culture?"

"Then can I read the script first?" Emily also consciously felt that she did have some shortcomings, so she didn't dare to say that it would be all right, so she tactfully said that she would read the script first before making a decision. .

"Then how can it be, how can something so private as the script be shown to outsiders casually? Do you think I am such a casual person?" Xu Juan immediately refused when he heard the words, as if his buddies were serious people.

watt? !
Emily was stunned when she heard the words, script?Private?What the hell is this?As the number one female you are going to hire, you don't even show me the script, how do I know if I can act well?
"But I'm the candidate for the female number one, shouldn't you show me the script first?" Emily was really refreshed by Xu Duan. This is the first time I heard that the script is a private thing, and, female When did number one become an outsider?

"You may become my number one woman, but you don't have to be my number one woman! At least not yet." Xu Juan immediately emphasized upon hearing this.

"What's the difference?" Emily asked with a blank face when she heard the words, even if she was a candidate, she still has the right to read the script, right?Who has heard that you have to decide to participate in the role of the female lead and haven't seen the script yet?

"That's a big difference. I showed you the script. What if the anger in your heart that you failed to become my leading lady leaked out to me? Then what should I do?" Xu Duan said sternly .

"I won't, I have a work ethic," Emily assured.

"What's the use of professional ethics? It's not the law. Even if you say so, I can't do anything about you." Xu Duan said.

"But if you don't show me the script, how will I know if I can act well?" Although Emily knew that Xu Duan was wicked, but she was so wicked that she probably didn't expect it.

"Forget it, let's ignore this for now, let's talk about the salary first." Xu Juan said with a wave of his hand when he heard the words.

"What about acting? Don't you want it? Can you be sure that I can act well?" Emily felt that something was wrong, but she still didn't know what was wrong, so she asked.

"Let's put that aside, let's talk about the salary first." Xu Duan said.

"How can this be put aside first? This still needs to be clarified." Well, Emily has been in the world for many years. It can be seen that Xu Duan paid special attention to acting skills when he first started, but now he suddenly doesn't You seem to care about it, and you immediately feel that something is wrong with this thing, it must be something wrong, think about it, it’s like when you’re interviewing for a company, and at the beginning the interviewer makes all sorts of embarrassments and asks you for experience and qualifications , was about to start, suddenly said that it is not important, let's talk about other things, there must be something about it here!Otherwise, why is experience and qualifications not important?right?

"It's not that you don't want to make it clear, and it's not that acting skills are not important, but we have to determine whether we can accept your salary. Think about it, if your salary is too high and we can't afford it, then no matter how good your acting skills are, it's useless." , we can’t cooperate at all, don’t you think so?” Xu Duan is so shady, he immediately put on a look of fact and reason, but what he said is also right, because there is indeed an acceptance of the salary If you want something so high that the film studio can't afford it, then what's the use of your acting skills being so good that people all over the world can't afford it?

This is not right, this unlucky child must be digging a hole for me somewhere, Emily combined what she knew about Xu Duan and her experience in the world, and she immediately understood that there must be something wrong with this thing, this guy must be digging for her It's a trap, otherwise, why would he suddenly go from talking about acting skills to talking about salary?
