This actor needs more money

"A little higher."

"Crooked."

"Okay, that's it."

In Ding Xiu's office, Qin Gang selected a few banners for Zhao Liying to hang up.

On the wall in the middle, the two bright fonts "Niubei" are very eye-catching. You can see them when you enter the door. Next to them is a great master.

Ding Xiu sat on the boss's chair, these two words shining brightly behind him.

Qin Gang sat down with a tea cup and said with a smile: "Brother Xiu, this is a good fight. I don't know how many sports endorsements are coming to my door now."

Compared with the endorsement area of ​​actresses, the products that male actors can endorse are smaller.

Cosmetics, gold and silver jewelry, bags, luxury goods, most of these products are in the hands of female artists.

The range of endorsements that male actors can do is not large, and they cannot endorse everything, so their choices are even smaller.

Ding Xiu also had a sports brand in the past, but it was similar to clothes and shoes. Since he had a fight with Robert, boxing gloves, sports equipment, fitness equipment, and fitness peripherals all came to his door.

This wave directly opened up new areas of endorsement.

Ding Xiu turned over the newly published Xiuchundao in his hand and said without raising his head: "Didn't you support my fight before?"

"Harm, I was afraid that you would kill someone, not that you wouldn't be able to beat him." Qin Gang put down the teacup and said seriously: "I didn't expect that your kung fu has reached the state of perfection, and you have a very good grasp of the scale. It's my fault that I don't know you well enough. "

He has won, and it is pointless to discuss the past. This time, he is really blind, what else can he do, just praise him.

"In order to express my apology, and because I am blind and unable to recognize Taishan, I decided to reward you with a few scripts. Xiao Zhao, go and pick up the stack of scripts from my desk."

That's right, Qin Gang was talking about a pile.

Ding Xiu never lacks scripts, and these piles are what is left after screening. If he didn't screen them first, there would be more scripts, and Ding Xiu wouldn't be able to finish them all.

"Okay, Mr. Qin."

Zhao Liying took small steps and went to Qin Gang's office to get the script with a smile.

Ding Xiu is finally going to film. It has been a long time since the filming of Fairy Sword 3 was completed. It is time to film. Ding Xiu is filming, and she can also follow the filming. It is wonderful.

Within a few minutes, Zhao Liying came over with the script in her arms.

It made a thud when placed on the desk.

Ding Xiu put down the embroidered spring knife, reached for the script and looked through it: "There are so many, which ones does the company intend to do?"

Qin Gang said seriously: "The prequel to the Lotus Lantern and the Magic Phone are both big projects and make a lot of money."

As the company's pillar, the company has always cared a lot about Ding Xiu. Now it's basically not that the male lead will not be accepted unless the other party pays a lot of money.

The prequel of Lotus Lantern has a male lead, and most of the cast is the original cast of Lotus Lantern. This drama has a large cast, a large investment, and a lot of foreshadowing, so it is very suitable for Ding Xiu.

In the past, Yang Jian was the second male lead and Chen Xiang was the first male lead in Lotus Lantern. This time it is said to be a prequel to Lotus Lantern, but it is better to say it is a biography of Yang Jian, a script specially tailored for Ding Xiu.

The role of Ding Xiu in Magic Phone is not the first male lead, but only the second male lead, but the producer offered a very high price, even higher than the prequel of Lotus Lantern.

Quickly finding the two scripts Qin Gang mentioned, Ding Xiu said, "I'll take a look first and get back to you after reading them."

"It's okay, there's no rush. You're busy with work during this period, so just give me a reply within a week."

The Olympics are coming to an end, and Ding Xiu's benefits as one of the opening ceremony performers have been maximized, with various endorsements coming to his door.

In the future, he may have to be soft-hearted when it comes to endorsement deals.

"OK."

Ding Xiu continued to look down, holding the script of the magic phone in his hand. The more he read, the more interesting it became, and occasionally he even laughed out loud.

An urban drama can actually combine mythology and science fiction. Even Zhu Bajie, Bull Demon King, and Yellow Eyebrow King have appeared, and they even opened companies one by one to sell the elixir of life.

The screenwriter is a talent.

I have one thing to say, this drama is quite ahead of its time. If it is actually produced, it might become popular, but don’t even think about winning awards. It doesn’t fit the main theme.

If he didn't have a drama on hand, Ding Xiu wouldn't mind giving it a try.

But now he no longer needs to go off the beaten path to increase his popularity. There are plenty of good scripts for him to act in.

So Magic Phone is destined to be given up.

After closing the script, Ding Xiu read the prequel of Lotus Lantern.

In the previous film, Yang Jian had a lot of scenes, but nothing about Yang Jian's origins, origins, or life experience was explained, leaving many holes unfilled.

For example, Chen Xiang went to borrow the Sky Axe, only to learn that Yang Jian came to borrow it many years ago.

The purpose of borrowing it and the final result are not mentioned at all. The audience can only imagine that Yang Jian cut the mountain to save his mother.

There is also the relationship between him and the Third Holy Mother, why the Third Holy Mother unconditionally believes in Yang Jian, and the relationship between the brothers and sisters, which is not explained in too much detail.

But in this prequel, everything is explained. From the birth of Yang Jian, it is explained that his mother is the sister of the Jade Emperor.

Because his mother violated the rules of heaven, his brother and father were beaten to death, and his mother was taken away. Only he and his sister escaped.

In order to avenge his mother and save his mother, he became a disciple and learned the art of rebelling against Heaven, met the Meishan brothers, and got to know Roaring Heavenly Dog.

He split a mountain to save his mother, and finally rescued her, but her mother was sunburned to death by the Jade Emperor's Golden Crow sons.

The furious Yang Jian carried the sky-opening ax and angrily killed the Golden Crow, leaving only the little Golden Crow to escape. Later, he saved the drowning and was canonized as Erlang Xiansheng True Monarch. He guarded Guanjiangkou and obeyed the orders but not the announcement...

The only sound in the office was the rustling of scripts being turned over.

Unconsciously, the sky gradually darkened, Zhao Liying turned on the light and drank one cup after another of tea.

When the lanterns came on, Ding Xiu finally finished reading the script and let out a long sigh of relief.

"The Legend of Yang Jian" is indeed well-deserved, and the prequel of "Baolian Lantern" is simply Yang Jian's personal show.

At the end of the story, Liu Yanchang and Liu Chenxiang are introduced to the beginning of the previous part.

"What time is it?" Ding Xiu turned around. Night was approaching outside the window, and thousands of houses were lit with lights.

"Eight thirty." Zhao Liying responded.

"That's it for today, get off work." Ding Xiu put aside the script he had read and stood up: "You can take the rest of the script with you and read it outside when you are on a business trip."

"good."

Walking out of the office, Ding Xiu found that there were many people working overtime in the company, and many workstations had computers turned on.

I guess he is busy with endorsement contracts related to himself, commercial acting scripts, etc.

Passing by Yang Siwei's office, Ding Xiu opened the door and stretched out his head and said, "Buy a late-night snack and coffee for those who work overtime, and I'll pay the bill... You have someone here."

There was a person in Yang Siwei's office. His back was turned to him. He couldn't see his face clearly. From the back, he looked like a man.

The man turned around, it was Song Yang who had worked with Xian Jian San before.

"Hello, Brother Xiu, we meet again. Just now, Sister Yang asked me if I really want to come over. Now I am sure. The treatment in our company is so good. We also provide late night snacks and coffee for overtime work. If you don't come, you will lose money."

Ding Xiu walked in and said, "It's you. You really switched jobs from Sugar Man. Didn't Mr. Cai kill you?"

Song Yang has been with Sugar Man for several years and has also filmed several movies. It's strange that Mr. Cai doesn't feel sad that he is leaving.

"I guess they originally wanted to cut me off, but they didn't because I had enough liquidated damages."

Song Yang also made a joke.

Ding Xiu knew that what he said was easy, but the actual situation may not be that easy. The artist's liquidated damages are quite large, and all the savings in the past few years may have been used up in this wave.

"As long as you're not dead, I won't disturb you anymore. Xiao Yang, remember to add chicken drumsticks for the employees, and get one for Xiao Song."

"Thank you Brother Xiu."

"Brother Xiu, walk slowly."

Ding Xiu left, and Song Yang faced Yang Siwei again.

He still underestimated Ding Xiu's status in the company. Yang Siwei, who was feared by everyone, was just Xiao Yang in front of him.

"You have worked with Brother Xiu. His personality is like this. He is very easy-going. You will understand it as time goes by. Wait a moment, I will arrange takeout... Okay, let's talk about the treatment issue..."

A week later, Qin Chao Entertainment.

"What?"

In the office, Qin Gang's high-pitched voice startled the secretary.

"Brother Xiu, you have to think carefully. The pay for Magic Phone is quite high. Although he is the second male lead, his personality charm is no less than that of the first male lead, and he has more roles."

"Even if you don't want to act, then you can choose a good one. Xiao Yang insists on giving this drama to you. There are many things that you may not know. This drama is short, with only more than 20 episodes, and the salary is also small. It’s not high, because it’s a group portrait and the scenes are limited.”

"I have read the script carefully. It has some shadows of a soldier's assault, and it is a military theme. It is inevitable to compare it after it is broadcast, and it will be easy to lose."

Even when I beat him to death, he never thought that Ding Xiu would choose the script "I am a special soldier".

The content of more than 20 episodes also focuses on group portraits, and each person's role is not much.

In terms of excitement, it is not as good as Soldier Assault.

With Ding Xiu's current popularity, it's a bit of a waste of talent to film this kind of movie. You can definitely choose something better, but if it doesn't work, you can take something more expensive.

"Really? How much is the salary?" Ding Xiu called in the airport waiting room.

He only started reading the script "I Am a Special Forces Soldier" on the way to the airport.

Having never been a soldier, Ding Xiu didn't understand military life, but the script looked interesting and attracted him.

Qin Gang said that the group portrait scenes were limited, but he disagreed with this.

Maybe the ensemble cast in other dramas will take away a lot of scenes, but military-themed dramas are supposed to be ensemble casts.

Anyone with a little bit of common sense knows that there is very little individual heroism in the army, and they all fight together.

I Am a Special Forces Soldier does not particularly highlight the protagonist. It only creates a cultured and physically fit college soldier who wrote a memoir novel to record his career as a soldier.

Ding Xiu likes this very much.

In addition, the reason why I insisted on acting was because I had never acted in a military-themed drama and wanted to give it a try.

He has acted in too many costume dramas and it is not challenging at all.

"Two million or so."

Qin Gang blurted out that I was paid by the special forces.

The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because no one had quoted Ding Xiu a salary of two million for many years.

If Yang Siwei hadn't insisted, this script wouldn't have reached Ding Xiu's desk.

Because the other actors in this drama are not big names. The second male, third male, and fourth male actors can’t even be named. They are all transparent.

The few who are somewhat famous are just minor partners.

There are even fewer female characters and only a few scenes.

"Okay, two million is two million. You tell the producer that I have one condition, which is that I need to enter the military camp for a few days in advance to experience it, including real gun shooting."

When filming a military scene, you can't even touch a gun, which is a huge loss.

In modern society, ordinary people have no chance to touch this thing in their lifetime. Ding Xiu is very curious about what it feels like to practice target.

It is said that a gun is fast from seven steps away, and a gun is fast and accurate within seven steps.

How fast it can be and how powerful it is, Ding Xiu wants to experience it for himself.

"Brother Xiu."

"Old Qin, listen to me."

"Oh, okay."

"By the way, there is one more request." Ding Xiu glanced at Zhao Liying next to him: "I want the heroine."

Qin Gang was stunned: "To whom?"

I Am a Special Forces Soldier was adapted from the novel. What was mailed to the company was not only the script, but also the original novel.

At previous company meetings, someone specifically made market analysis and role positioning for the script.

Regarding the heroine, there is no topic of discussion.

Because this character has very few roles, so few that he doesn’t have as many roles as the fifth male lead.

In Fengshen's Soldier Assault, the heroine is a female trafficker who was beaten to death by Xu Sanduo with an elbow as soon as she appeared.

Although I Am a Special Forces Soldier is not that exaggerated, the heroine does not have many scenes. It is unclear whether there are more than a dozen scenes in total.

He didn't know what Ding Xiu was going to do in this kind of role.

"To Xiao Zhao." Ding Xiu said it directly without hiding anything.

Zhao Liying, who was next to her, suddenly turned her head, her eyes widened and her expression dull, as if she heard something incredible.

If she heard correctly, Ding Xiu just said that he would give her a heroine.

God, is this pie in the sky?

She has only been in a few dramas. Before, she was a palace maid in Mythology, but she became a supporting role in Sword and Fairy, and now she is the leading female role.

Brother Xiu is not interested in me, is he? This thought suddenly appeared in Zhao Liying's mind: "Does he want to sneak into me?"

"But he's quite good at diving!"

On the other end of the phone, Qin Gang was silent for a few seconds: "Take it easy, it's hard to find a good assistant now. Pay attention to safety and don't kill anyone."

It's true that it's not easy to find a good secretary.

Ding Xiu is becoming more and more popular, and many fans want to be his assistants, some for free, some for free, and there are many beauties.

The more this happens, the less Qin Gang dares to arrange for these people.

People's hearts are unpredictable, and he was afraid that Ding Xiu couldn't control it, and one day his assistant would come over with a few short videos and threaten him, asking for a few million.

However, he suspected that Ding Xiu could no longer control himself.

If he hadn't had an affair, he couldn't even figure out why he would help Zhao Liying.

This is not the first time

The role of Huaying last time was also requested by Ding Xiu.

Qin Lan, Zhao Liying, Gao Yuanyuan, and Ding Xiu, the four of them can form a mahjong table.

"It's better for you." Qin Gang looked at the female secretary who was close at hand.

Outside, he never talks about feelings. If he can solve it with money, he will solve it with money. That's great.

"Mr. Qin, I really like a Gucci bag." Secretary said pitifully.

"Not buying."

Are you kidding? Just buy it when you say it. He is not taken advantage of. Men’s money is for women to see, not to spend. Although he only talks about money and not feelings, sometimes you still have to save what you can save and don’t spend money unnecessarily. .

I only ate one bowl of noodles and had to pay for two bowls. Isn’t this bullying an honest person?

"Mr. Qin, I bought a new suit, do you want to see it? I also know how to attract stars."

"purchase!"
