This actor needs more money

"Ma Dan, why is Ding Xiu so awesome? The actor acts like a little brother in front of him?"

"Those who know know that it is Korean actor Huang Zhengming, and those who don't know think it is Ding Xiu's assistant."

"A superstar is a superstar."

"Finally, I see a young artist who doesn't flatter Korean artists."

"This is what an artist should be like."

"Ding Xiu, with his back and suit, everyone is his younger brother, okay?"

"Just kidding, just search Ding Xiu's record and you will know. Who dares to show off in front of him?"

"Hahaha, I feel like laughing for no reason."

The rise of domestic entertainment is unstoppable. Anyone with eyes can see that in the next twenty years, domestic entertainment will be the home of Asia. Therefore, in the past two years, Korean entertainment has been planting its flag here, and it has been practicing wave after wave. Groups kept coming.

The quality of the trainees in the past few years was pretty good. They were all released after three to five years of training. Now they are released in one or two years. From this, we can see how eager they are to occupy the market.

But the effect is also very good. There are indeed many young girls and boys falling in love with these Korean groups, and the companies behind them are making a lot of money.

As more people like them and their fame gradually increases, some Korean entertainment artists begin to wander around, traveling in such great style that those who don’t know them think they are A-list celebrities.

In fact, there are no representative works, and few of the songs he sings are understandable.

Part of the reason why they are popular is that they are beautiful and handsome, but if they can form a group, there is nothing unattractive, especially those girl groups, who dance and pose, making people angry.

The final reason is the hype of the company behind it, which frequently appears on trending searches, buys publicity, and appears on variety shows.

Among them, the most frequent one is the quick version of Hunan Satellite TV.

A little-known group can gain millions of fans by going to Kuaibo, and they can make their debut after a few operations.

The Korean group is popular, this is a fact.

Some hosts in domestic entertainment have no backbone at all. Netizens can't stand the way they grovel in front of those top celebrities.

There was also a certain entertainment host who was scolded crazy by netizens for kneeling down.

But in front of Ding Xiu, none of these existed.

He is the big brother wherever he goes, let alone a top actor, it doesn't matter if he is the best actor.

Look at Ding Xiu, and then look at those groveling people. If there is no comparison, there will be no harm. No wonder netizens are excited and feel that Ding Xiu is a real man.

Just when netizens were making fun of Ding Xiu, someone posted a picture, which was taken by Ding Xiu from a private jet.

I don’t know who leaked the news that it was Ding Xiu’s plane.

All of a sudden, netizens were outraged again. There were not many scoldings, but many people were angry, and even more expressed emotion.

He neither stole nor robbed, and no one scolded him. They just felt that this guy was really high-profile, and they were envious and helpless.

"This should be the second person in the entertainment industry to buy a plane. Uncle Benshan also has one."

"Nima, being a star is really profitable. No wonder my relatives work hard to study art and go to acting schools."

"If you want to buy an airplane worth more than RMB 100 million, you can buy it, you are a rich man."

"Every trip is done by private jet. No wonder Huang Zhengming is regarded as his younger brother. Who the hell can be as high-profile as him?"

"Celebrities make so much money, but they rarely donate more to charity."

"Don't be shady upstairs. Ding Xiu hasn't donated in any year. You can check his Weibo for more than a dozen charity events a year."

"It would be a lie to say that I am not envious. I am still in my thirties. I was an intern at university when Ding Xiu debuted. Ten years later, I am in debt, with a loan of more than 800,000 yuan. I am already on a private jet. MLGB Yes, the promised ones are coming from Shencheng..."

"According to relevant statistics, in the past three years, the number of applicants for Nortel has increased by 200%, and children from wealthy families have all gone there."

"It makes me want to be an actor."

"If you say you envy Ding Xiu and want to be an actor, Hengdian welcomes you. Those who can reach the top of the industry can make money no matter what industry they are in. Ding Xiu has the survivor effect. How can other people be so lucky? Look at Wang Baoqiang who was at the same time as him , have not even graduated from elementary school, and Huang Bo is a junior college student in his thirties, wuwuwu, mmp, I will go to the training class tomorrow."

"I have to admit that this is a golden age, and the entertainment industry is experiencing a blowout."

After the turn of the millennium, the market for domestic entertainment is getting better and better year by year, with a visible increase in speed. Every one of the boys and girls standing at the forefront of the trend are becoming famous.

Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming, Tong Dawei, Fan Binbin, Wang Baoqiang, Ding Xiu, Huang Bo, Sun Li, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Liu Sisi, Qin Lan, Gao Yuanyuan, Ren Quan, Li Binbin...these people are really popular in the millennium. after.

Thanks to the introduction of color TVs into millions of households, today's artists can become popular with just one or two TV series. With the promotion of the Internet, the cost of making artists popular is much easier than after the millennium.

When the people are in need, the director goes crazy with filming.

Nowadays, as long as you turn on the TV, you can watch all the good dramas all year round, and there are three to five high-quality dramas every year.

Even so, the people shouted that they couldn't get enough.

The greater the demand, the more actors are needed, and the artists have more opportunities, which creates a star-studded situation, and Ding Xiu is one of the best.

It's not surprising that he can buy a plane. If he can't afford it with his status and income, it means that this industry really has no future.

…

"Brother Bo, when will you return to the company? I will send Brother Xiu's private plane to pick you up."

"Brother Bo, I've renovated the rooftop of the company. I'll send you the pictures to see. Isn't this big swimming pool beautiful? When I have nothing to do, I'll find ten or eight young models to have a BBQ."

"Brother Bo, don't you see the open space in the middle? That's Brother Xiu's helipad. He said he would buy a helicopter to commute to get off work later."

"Fuck, stop talking, stop talking, I'm coming back, why don't you come back?"

Qin Gang made three phone calls a day, either on a private plane or a helicopter, and a young model in a big swimming pool. Huang Bo couldn't stand it anymore.

He knew what Qin Gang meant, and he actually wanted him to come back and do more drama.

Thinking that his rest time was not short, Huang Bo felt that it was time to start work. He didn't dare to think about a private jet. He just tried to live in a villa in Peiping by the end of the year.

Qin Chao Entertainment, Qin Gang invited Huang Bo to the office for drinks and barbecue.

He knew that Huang Bo was good at this.

After drinking for three rounds, he took out a script.

"Brother Bo, I know you have high demands. It's not that you don't accept good scripts. Can you take a look at this script?"

The script given by Qin Gang was called Militia Ge Erdan. Huang Bo flipped through it and it was an anti-war film.

It’s considered a trend.

In the past two years, there have been a lot of Anti-Japanese War films, and there have been quite a lot of them with all sorts of saucy stuff, and they're pretty outrageous anyway.

Lei Gui Lei has an alarmingly high ratings. Some middle-aged and elderly people especially like this, so there are endless anti-war films on the market.

"Old Qin, you know me, I don't make TV series."

Huang Bo put down the script calmly.

He didn't want to make this drama. The Anti-Japanese War movie was too outrageous and not what he wanted. Besides, he really didn't want to take on the TV series.

Waste of time, shoddy work.

Qin Gang was not surprised at Huang Bo's reaction, and took out the contract again with a smile: "You first have a look at the conditions, and then we'll talk about it."

Huang Bo crossed his legs and leaned back on the chair. He took the contract and opened it. He went directly to the last page of the credits and said as he turned:

"Hai, you know who I am. I have a bottom line. No matter what the other party's conditions are, I will not, no, no, not make a hasty decision easily. I usually only accept the script."

Staring at the long series of numbers, Huang Bo swallowed his saliva, silently counted a few zeros, and then picked up the previous script.

"I think this script is pretty good and a bit interesting."

Qin Gang smiled and said, "Yeah, I think it's interesting too. Are you filming a TV series now?"

Huang Bo curled his lips and said seriously: "What do you call this? There are only small actors and no small roles. What's wrong with TV series? You can't look down on TV series."

Damn it, he didn’t want to take pictures, but the other party gave him too much.

The salary is more than four times that of his movie. After filming this TV series, not only this year's KPI, but also next year's will be considered completed.

It doesn't even have to be until the end of the year. As long as you sign, you can live in a big villa in Peiping tomorrow.

Qin Gang said: "That's right, actors must be versatile, TV series, movies, there is no harm in doing more. Who cares about money, ahem, can't get along with art."

Dedicating oneself to art is something that should only be considered after making enough money and having enough food.

Most actors should be more realistic and put their wife and children on the hot bed first. If they don’t want to film a TV series? Five million, ten million, fifteen million, do you want to take the shot?

As long as the money is in place, the four heavenly kings will invite you to come over and carry mortars to fight the Japanese.

"Do I have a condition?"

After reading the script, Huang Bo closed it and said solemnly.

The script was okay, not as outrageous as those dramas, and the characters were comical. It suited his personality and profession, and the price was so high that he was unwilling to refuse.

Qin Gang bit a toothpick in his mouth: "Say."

If an ordinary person dared to make a request to him, he would have been slapped with a big mouth, but Huang Bo could do it, he had the qualifications.

This is the case in the entertainment industry. As long as your status is big enough and you have commercial value, it doesn't matter if you make a few requests. The producers will kneel down and calm your anger.

Huang Bo said: "I would like to recommend someone to be the second male lead."

"Who?" Qin Gang asked nonchalantly.

The most important thing about this drama is Huang Bo. It all depends on him to sell the drama. It's not a big problem to recommend a second male lead. As long as he is not an unknown and just debuting amateur, the producer will probably agree.

"High bluff."

"who?"

"High bluff."

Huang Bo repeated it again.

Qin Gang spit out the toothpick, held his forehead and smashed it into his mouth, with a sad look on his face.

Although he is not an actor, his understanding of the entertainment industry is not shallow at all. He knows all about the good actors and potential newcomers on the market, and who has more negative information and more negativity.

He knew the buddy Huang Bo was talking about.

Gao Rui made his debut very early, in the 1990s. He has filmed many movies. He also collaborated with Ding Xiu in Tian Long Ba Bu and The Legend of the Condor Heroes. He played the roles of Xu Zhu and Huo Dou.

When filming Tianlong, Ding Xiu had to act as his voice actor.

This guy has good acting skills and good resources. He has managed to survive the turn of the millennium. He is quite good in the second line. If he can make a few more male lead roles, it won't be a big problem to break into the front line before he turns 40.

However, if a person is unlucky enough to drink cold water, his teeth will get clogged.

In 2004, while filming a driving scene, he drove over the lighting engineer.

The lighting engineer was stunned.

Although it was an accident and the matter was settled privately, the verdict must still be imposed.

Sentenced to one year and suspended for one year.

Fortunately, he didn't step on the sewing machine, but it had a huge impact on his reputation. From then on, basically no one dared to ask him to be the male lead.

This is also the reason why he was only a supporting role when filming The Condor.

The Internet has no memory, and times have changed. Six or seven years have passed, and many people no longer remember this incident. He also began to slowly get better, and began to receive some important roles with many roles.

Just as he was about to return to his peak, bad luck happened again.

Last year, this guy bought a villa and renovated it.

The electrician accidentally stepped on a high-voltage wire and got cold.

Under the massive media coverage, his reputation was hit again, and the gourd that had just floated was pushed down again.

Looking at this buddy's life experience, Qin Gang felt that he had offended someone and that someone wanted to punish him.

Closer to home, it is risky for the producers to use Gao Fu as the second male lead for Militiaman Ge Erdan. Huang Bo's recommendation is obviously an unwise act.

"Brother Bo, why don't you think about it again? Let's recommend someone else."

Lao Qin's words were very sincere. He was worried that the investors would not agree, and in the end Huang Bo even lost his role.

Huang Bo shook his head when he heard this: "Lao Gao is my brother. I have to help him. If he comes, I will come to this play. If he doesn't come, I won't do it."

The two grew up together, and Lao Gao had taken care of him a lot in the past. When he was able to come to Peking, it was Gao who supported him and said that he would take him to film together when he graduated from Nortel.

In the early 2000s, Lao Gao's career suffered a blow and his reputation was not as good as before, but he still helped him several times.

Now that I'm up, I can't forget this feeling.

Qin Gang sighed: "Have you really decided?"

Huang Bo nodded.

"Okay, I'll help you fight for it, but I can't guarantee it 100%, so be mentally prepared."

"Thank you, Lao Qin."

They are all adults, so of course they will not act impulsively. Huang Bo has also left himself a way out. Even if he does not film this movie, he will not starve to death.

An old acquaintance told him that a movie they were going to make at the end of the year, called Killing, invited him.

If he couldn't film Militiaman Ge Erdan, he would have to wait a few more months and film Killing Life at the end of the year.

A few days later, after Qin Gang's argument, the producer still gave the second male lead to Gao Wei.

Gao Hui also knew that he couldn't win this role on his own. When he learned that Huang Bo had resisted, he was so moved that he almost cried. This young man has nothing to lose, so if there is money to be made, he will help him.

So I invited Huang Bo to his home that day and had a big drink. While drinking, we talked about the past and cried bitterly.

It's been a long time since he received a second male lead.

They all thought they were cold.

Afterwards, Huang Bo also introduced Qin Gang to Gao Rui, hoping to help his career. After the meal, Qin Gang was not optimistic about Gao Rui.

After all, it’s because he’s older and not handsome, and that’s how he will be for the rest of his life.

The key is that it is stained and not easy to mix with.

Not to mention you, Gao, how about Liu Xiaoqing?

She was one of the most popular ladies in Mainland China back then, and now she is also playing supporting roles in major drama groups.

And the high bluffing thing is far from that simple. This guy may have offended someone, and someone is trying to punish him.

I don’t want to jump into this trap myself.

According to my own observation, this guy's mental state is not very good. I don't know if he was hit too much. He feels weird and unstable.

If it weren't for Huang Bo's sake, he wouldn't have come to eat this meal at all.
