Pick up an actor and go home for the New Year

Why anxiety.

In the past, it was because of work, because of coping with interviews, and because of keeping the best condition in front of the camera at all times.

But why are you anxious now?

Shen Shixing peeled off the sugar and put it in his mouth, took out a bunch of crumpled paper from his jacket pocket, smoothed the edges and corners carefully, it was a blood routine report.

This morning he went out for a walk with the dog and went downstairs to throw out the trash. Because Caesar was in a hurry to say hello to his friends, Shen Shixing was dragged for a few steps, and the trash bag was hung on the holly branch.

Paper balls are flying all over the place.

He picked them up along the way, and many of them were stick figures or stick figures drawn by You Su casually. It was quite interesting for him to look at them while picking them up.

But when I saw this report card, I suddenly stopped laughing.

Of course, based on this piece of paper alone, it could be seen at most that Yousu was indeed anemic. What worried Shen Shixing was Yousu's attitude.

Since he is anemic, it is normal to go to the hospital for reexamination after a period of recuperation, so why hide it from him.

"Brother Shen, take a look at this."

Assistant Li handed over an iPad, "This movie will start shooting next month. The director heard about your relationship with little Van Gogh, so there is a character that I would like to ask you to play as a cameo."

Shen Shixing glanced at the script, "Listen to the Wind in My Ear".

"Couldn't you just make an announcement?" Shen Shixing skimmed through the synopsis and was a little surprised, "Li Ren is the director of Xiaoyu's comic remake?"

"Didn't we have some grievances before, and he was too embarrassed to go directly to you. Who knows where he heard about the relationship between you and the original author, so he decided to go through the back door."

Li Ren is a person who likes to take the edge of the sword, always shoots some cool subjects, with strong ability, it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant.

Back then, he had prepared a movie about school violence. Shen Shixing was supposed to lead the lead role, but he became Cen Qi during the promotion.

Shen Shixing put down the pad after turning over two pages of the script, "Go ahead, I'll talk to Zhang Jianyi."

Li Zhu drove the car directly into the underground garage, and while waiting for the elevator, he said to Shen Shixing, "I don't think Brother Zhang will stop him. The second male lead in this movie is Shen Shen."

Shen Shixing was taken aback.

"If Brother Zhang still cares about the past, he probably won't let Shen Shen participate in the performance."

This Saturday, even shareholders who accounted for only a few percent of the company had arrived on this rest day, which meant that what we were going to talk about today was a big deal.

Shishi Bank wants to terminate the contract.

The company's management team is numerous and powerful, and it looks aggressive, but Shen Shihang doesn't pay attention to it at all.

He just needs to take down the guy on the board.

Shen Chen also didn't take the company's leaders seriously.

The best of the newcomers, the company's rising star and cash cow, is sitting in the corner of the conference room, chatting to the point of being completely ecstatic.

Before the meeting started, Zhang Jianyi sat at the bottom of the conference table and raised the documents in his hand towards Shen Shixing.

Shen Shi walked over and sat beside him.

"nervous?"

"It's okay." Shen Shixing said, "Why didn't Shen Chen tell me about the cooperation with Li Ren?"

There was a moment of embarrassment on Zhang Jianyi's face, Shen Shixing said: "I don't mind this matter, since it is good for Shen Shen's development, just accept it."

"In addition, Li Zhu said that Xiaoyu's movie has a cameo, so help me accept it."

Zhang Jianyi smiled, "The power of love is really great. Li Ren is the most annoying person in your circle, and now he is rushing to act in his movie, and there is no pay for his cameo."

"I'm well-known now, I'm going to add luster to Xiaoyu's remake." Shen Shixing was helpless, "Besides, Li Ren can only be ranked second, and Jiang Hai is the one who annoys me the most."

"Don't blame me for not reminding you, the male lead in this movie is Cen Qi."

Shi Shixing was dumb.After a while, he said: "I'm not going to compete with him for the leading role."

Not long after, all the members of the board of directors arrived, and Zhang Jianyi issued the pre-drawn termination contract.

Of course, this is only a draft agreement, and the specific amount needs to be considered.

No one looked at the contract, which meant that they didn't want to discuss the details of the contract at all. Regarding the matter of Shen Shixing's withdrawal from the circle, it is rare for the board of directors, which can be so noisy on weekdays, to agree.

turn down.

But they are also guilty, because the liquidated damages can no longer restrain Shen Shixing. The liquidated damages stipulated in the contract ten years ago was an astronomical figure for him, but now it is only one year's interest on his bank account.

So the board of directors turned the fire on Zhang Jianyi, using both kindness and threat, half seductive and half threatening.

You see, the company and the agent have trained you for so many years, and how many resources have been poured on you, how can you just leave.

"Maybe you haven't figured out my position." Zhang Jianyi stood up, he was used to standing when speaking in front of directors, "I support the termination of the contract."

Director Chen Lu couldn't hold back any longer, "Zhang Jianyi, what do you mean, you are from the company, do you know, put yourself in your position!"

It's not the first time that Zhang Jianyi has confronted Chen Lu positively, "There are so many managers in the company, and there are also many talented newcomers under him, but I am the only one who can cultivate a generation of actor, do you know why?"

"Because they can't position themselves properly." Zhang Jianyi smiled.

Li Zhu was listening in a corner of the conference room, and found that Shen Shen, who had been immersed in fandom, was staring blankly at Zhang Jianyi in front of the conference table.

"I found that uncle is quite handsome." Shen Chen said.

Chen Lu didn't know how to refute, but she was good at being unreasonable, "Anyway, it's impossible to terminate the contract!"

Shen Shixing said, "Do you think you can stop me? I want to go through the procedure normally and everyone will look good after signing a termination contract. If you don't agree, I don't care about paying the liquidated damages."

"But your work has not been completed yet." A director on the opposite side took out several documents, "If you don't do these tasks, we can force you to terminate the contract, and we can sue you." Zhang Jianyi flipped through the documents, her expression a little ugly, "I haven't accepted these scripts for you, and these few, I have obviously rejected them."

"The company picked you up for you. The newcomers in our company still need you to bring popularity." The director said.

Shen Chen poked Li Zhu, "Is the battle going badly now?"

"Well, it's turned against the wind."

Zhang Jianyi suddenly glanced at Shen Chen.

The look in his eyes made his heart tremble, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only smile.

"I have a proposal." Zhang Jianyi withdrew her thoughts and began to explain the plan he had thought up a long time ago.

It's not that Zhang Jianyi didn't expect this situation. These scripts must have been picked up temporarily after the company learned that Shen Shixing was going to withdraw from the circle. As long as the actor has a schedule, there are as many jobs as there are.

It doesn't matter if the script is good or not, the important thing is to tie Shishihang.

"Give me a two-year buffer period, and gradually reduce the work of Shenshihang. I will train Shen Shen as soon as possible." Zhang Jianyi didn't dare to look at Shen Shen again.

Chen Lu said: "Shen Chen is indeed a good seedling, but compared with Shen Shixing, it's ten years behind the training. This business is not worthwhile."

"I know he is not as good as Shen Shihang now." Zhang Jianyi seemed to be ruthless, "However, I will let him sign a new contract with the company for 20 years."

Shen Chen didn't understand Zhang Jianyi's meaning, but felt that his heart suddenly became cold.

"Shen Shen will not terminate the contract within 20 years, and will not modify the terms of treatment. For 20 years, I will be your cash cow."

There was a sound of a chair falling to the ground in the corner of the meeting room, and Li Zhu ran out right behind Shen Chen, "Shen Chen, wait a moment, don't be impulsive!"

Shen Shixing pulled Zhang Jianyi, "Let's go back and discuss it again. It's not okay to sign for 20 years."

"Everything has been said, there is no turning back."

Zhang Jianyi looked at the directors, "Our company usually signs artists for five years, and every time the artist renews the contract, the artist will ask for a higher salary. You can calculate this account, whether the 20-year contract of a talented rookie is enough to let Shen Shixing go. "

In fact, this is a game.

The contract signed when debuting more or less contained elements of squeezing artists. If Shen Shen can make it to the top, then the brokerage company holding this contract will be like winning the lottery

Zhang Jianyi also put forward a more attractive suggestion, "After retiring from the circle, Shenshihang's popularity is still there. If the company has any needs, he will not refuse." According to Zhang Jianyi's consideration, retiring from the circle is not the purpose of Shenshihang. He just wants more time to spend with Yu Yousu.

The board is silent, which sounds like a good deal.

A director asked: "Are you confident that you can train that newcomer into Shishihang?"

"Shen Chen is just Shen Shen. I never thought of training him to be someone else." Zhang Jianyi spoke loudly, "He chooses what path to take. I am only responsible for clearing obstacles and backing up."

The chairman, who has not expressed his opinion, picked up the draft agreement on the table, looked at it, and suddenly sighed, "Perhaps...you are right."

Zhang Jianyi was slightly taken aback.

"If the agent can have your understanding, maybe our company won't be the only movie king like Shen Shixing." The chairman handed the draft contract to the secretary behind him, "Use this as a reference to re-draw the contract and send it to me on Monday." .”

This means... you agree?Shi Shixing stood up excitedly, "You agree to my termination?"

"I think, with such a good agent in our company, even if you terminate the contract, you won't leave too far." The chairman smiled and went out, "Because you don't like other companies' agents."

Zhang Jianyi raced all the way to the airport.

Li Zhu hurriedly wandered around in the airport lobby, and finally got through to Zhang Jianyi, "Brother Zhang, are you here yet? Shen Shen got his boarding pass and will be on the plane soon. He is going back to Norway."

"Can't you help me stop him!" Zhang Jianyi snatched the parking space of a small bread, and received a greeting from Zaan from the driver.

"You pissed people off, and you blamed me for not being able to stop you!"

Li Zhu had a rare moment of anxiety, "Don't think about what you said, can you sacrifice Shen Chen in order to help Brother Shen terminate the contract? Who would be willing to sell himself for 20 years!"

Zhang Jianyi ran into the lobby and saw Li Zhu head-on. He didn't stop and didn't hang up the phone, he just shouted, "What's the boarding gate number!"

"I haven't boarded the plane yet, I just passed the security check."

Zhang Jianyi ran straight to the security check channel, but he didn't have a boarding pass, so he couldn't enter the terminal at all, so he could only call Shen Shen.

Shen Chen answered the phone, and then his figure appeared at the door of a duty-free shop. Zhang Jianyi saw him at a glance.

"Come out to me!"

Shen Chen looked at him without saying a word, and licked the cone he just bought.

"I'll let you come out! Can't you hear me?" Zhang Jianyi became more flustered the more anxious he became, he knew that he shouldn't be in such an aggressive manner now.

"Uncle, I also want to terminate the contract, what should I do?"

Zhang Jianyi couldn't stand anymore, he stared desperately at the boy holding a cone a few steps away, separated by people coming and going.

There seemed to be too many words of begging for mercy, but they were all stuck in his chest, and he couldn't say a word.

"You come out first." Zhang Jianyi was so nervous that her stomach convulsed, and the surging pain bit every nerve.

There were bursts of whiteness in front of Zhang Jianyi's eyes, and when Zhang Jianyi saw it again, the figure in front of the duty-free shop was no longer there.

"Ladies and gentlemen: The plane has landed at Bergen Airport, and the temperature outside the plane is 8 degrees Celsius. Thank you for taking this flight, see you next time!"

Shen Shen walked out of the airport.

Never before had a journey made him feel so tired, as if he had lost half his life.
