The entertainment system becomes a god

On this day, Qiao Beiyu found Su Lingjia, and he felt that it was necessary to talk to him about work.

"Since the movie went offline, the work has gradually decreased, and now I haven't received any notice for three full days." It is already a very familiar relationship, Qiao Beiyu cuts to the chase, "Since actors are paid on a piece basis, if We can't get a job here, and I don't think I need to stay any longer."

Su Lingjia was having a great time cutting fruit with a PAD. When he heard Qiao Beiyu's words, he put the thing down: "I don't think I understand what you mean."

"I mean, if your place is going to close down, I plan to change jobs. Otherwise, if you don't have a job here and I can't take on other jobs, life will be a problem." Qiao Beiyu repeated, with a correct accent.

But Su Lingjia was choked up, raised his eyebrows after a while, and said, "Why can't you take other jobs?"

Qiao Beiyu said: "I am you and an employee, so naturally I should concentrate on your work here, and not half-heartedly take on private work."

Hearing this, Su Lingjia stared at him for a long time before asking: "Who told you that you are my employee, so you can't take private jobs?"

Qiao Beiyu was surprised: "Isn't it? We have a contract."

Su Lingjia looked at him with the eyes of 5000 years: "I said which valley did you come from, did you think that being an actor is also a nine-to-five weekend weekend? Then these days, there are always six days to receive announcements." , how can you still think so? Working overtime on weekends?"

Qiao Beiyu nodded: "Five plus two white plus black."

"Fuck you, don't talk to me!" Su Lingjia slapped the table and scolded, "The contract you signed with me is only for filming and promotion related to the film, as well as peripheral aspects. The rest of the time is yours , you can do whatever you want, accept new films, shoot commercials, release albums, whatever you want.”

"That is to say, I am actually a temporary worker?"

"If you think it's understandable, then that's it." Su Lingjia said angrily.

Qiao Beiyu suddenly realized.At first, he thought that he could not do private work during the contract period, and he had misunderstood Zhang Zhicheng and Mu Qi, but now he realized that he was not knowledgeable enough.In this case, he can no longer wait passively, and has to start looking for a new job.

After enlightenment, Qiao Beiyu began to browse the major recruitment websites, bought some newspapers to focus on the recruitment pages, and posted his own information on places such as Zhiwang.

Since Qiao Beiyu lived in the studio, Su Lingjia naturally noticed this behavior: "What are you doing?"

"Looking for a job." Qiao Beiyu didn't take his eyes off the newspaper, and put it aside when he found that there was nothing related to acting.

Seeing him flipping through three newspapers like this, Su Lingjia couldn't help asking: "What do you mean by looking for a job, are you looking for a new script or a new album?"

"Yes." Qiao Beiyu read all the newspapers of the day.

"That's how you look for it?"

"Of course not." Qiao Beiyu said seriously, "I'm still looking for it on the Internet, and I also put my contact information on the Internet."

Su Lingjia had a strange face: "You put your contact information on the Internet? Has anyone looked for you?"

Qiao Beiyu was a little confused and said: "Many people called me, but they were all inexplicable harassing calls, and they kept asking me if it was me." His phone was almost blown up these days, but Basically no useful information.

Su Lingjia looked at him, laughed suddenly, and then laughed out of control, and finally couldn't straighten up laughing: "You are so funny! You don't think you can find announcements from newspapers and recruitment websites, do you? "There is obvious banter in the laughter.

Qiao Beiyu stopped for no reason.

Su Lingjia barely stopped laughing, pointed at him and said, "Give me your phone number right away, you idiot!"

"why?"

"You actually asked me why?" Su Lingjia stared, "Do you want to answer the phone all day when you have nothing to do?"

"How can I find a new job if I don't accept it?"

Su Lingjia went crazy: "You will be lucky if one out of a hundred calls like this is not a nuisance call!"

"But there are always serious recruits."

Su Lingjia was unable to touch his forehead: "Didn't you see what Zhang Zhicheng and Mu Qi did?"

Qiao Beiyu recalled for a moment: "Participate in the reception?"

Su Lingjia rolled his eyes in an image-destructive way: "They are here to expand their network. Through these receptions, they will meet some big-name star directors or producers, and they will have the opportunity to audition."

Qiao Beiyu was surprised: "Isn't that through the back door?"

Su Lingjia: "..."

"Okay." Su Lingjia also had a certain understanding of him, this time it was just a little deeper, and his nerves had been tempered to be very strong, but he returned to normal after a while, and smiled lightly, " It’s not wrong for you to say that you are going through the back door. But in the entertainment industry, connections are very important. Generally, actors are selected either internally, or they are introduced by acquaintances, and then they go to entertainment companies or art schools to pick people. It is the most formal channel, and audition and self-recommendation are rarely used. So if you have a network, you will learn more information. As for whether you can just participate in it or not, that is another matter."

Qiao Beiyu was sitting upright, with a taught and sincere expression: "I understand."

"You really understand?" Su Lingjia was a little worried, this guy has too many criminal records, "I don't trust your common sense."

Qiao Beiyu asked, "Is this common sense?"

Su Lingjia wanted to say of course, but after thinking about it carefully, she couldn't say it.There are no secrets in the entertainment circle, but if you don’t pay special attention to it, it is indeed different from the general circle, and it is not common sense that you must understand.Qiao Beiyu, on the other hand, seems to be an honest and conservative person, not like someone who can chase stars, gossip, or like to participate in recreational activities. Su Lingjia sometimes wonders if he is like a school teacher, thinking that only textbooks , Classics and reference books are useful, others are mental garbage.

There are indeed people who are so self-disciplined.However, such people are generally insulators of fashion and entertainment, why do they come to the entertainment industry?

Facing Su Lingjia's increasingly weird eyes, Qiao Beiyu remained calm as before: "I understand what you mean. I didn't realize these differences before, so I didn't take the initiative to understand them. I won't do it again in the future. Don't worry." He said Very serious, very solemn, there is a power that people will believe when they face it.

Su Lingjia looked at him and sighed helplessly, who can have no secrets, there is no need to know some things.

"It's good if you have this awareness. Since you've entered the circle, pay more attention." He pointed out the score of his seniors, "Don't pick up jobs randomly, let alone exhaust yourself physically and mentally. You risk damaging your public image."

"Is there such a thing?" Damage to the public image is a loss of reputation. Qiao Beiyu flipped through the task prompts in the system. It only said that completion would reward reputation. It shouldn't be like this.

"Of course there is. For example, if you endorse a drink, and the drink is found to have harmful substances, do you think you can end well? And it is best not to accept endorsements when you are famous enough. If you can't get a big brand at this time, you will give people You have the impression that you don’t have a high style.” Su Lingjia didn’t have the slightest alarmist talk, and told Qiao Beiyu all his experience, “Most of these things require the economic man to cooperate with you, and let the economic man help you negotiate and help you. You do research..." At this point, he suddenly looked over in disbelief, "Could it be that you don't have an economic man?"

"Economic man?" Qiao Beiyu thought for a while, then took out his phone, "A man called me today and said he was an economic man and wanted to recommend himself to me. I thought it was a pyramid scheme and he hung up. I'll look for it later."

"Fuck you MLM!" Su Lingjia couldn't take it anymore, "Don't look for that kind of person, who knows what the origin is, I would rather not look for such an important position than look for it."

Qiao Beiyu put down his phone and followed suit: "What does such an important economic man do?"

"The economic man is to help the actors with career planning and handling of performing arts affairs. Actors cannot succeed without the operation of a good economic man."

"Oh." Qiao Beiyu said with a long voice, "I don't understand, isn't career planning my business?"

"Okay..." Su Lingjia was helpless to him, "If someone asks you to shoot an advertisement now, what do you plan to do?"

"Learn about the situation of these units one by one through acquaintances and the Internet, consult a lawyer, and negotiate after sufficient preparation." Qiao Beiyu answered in an orderly manner.

Su Lingjia was a little surprised by his calmness, raised her fingertips, and tapped on the desktop: "You are right, but you are an artist, you have your own job, and it is impossible to waste time doing this kind of screening and negotiation Work. So the tree industry has a specialization, if you have an economic man, these things will be taken care of by the economic man."

Qiao Beiyu was thoughtful: "Then how did the economic man find it?"

"The managers of most artists are their relatives and friends. Of course, there are also professional managers." Su Lingjia shrugged. For a professional agent, the ability and connections of the other party are ready-made, but that is a two-way choice."

loved ones...?Qiao Beiyu was silent.In this world, where does he have any relatives.

But Qiao Beiyu was not a person who would indulge in the past. Looking at Su Lingjia, his calm face showed no emotion in his heart: "Does Director Su have any suggestions?"

Su Lingjia tapped rhythmically on the table with his fingertips. Facing Qiao Beiyu's expectant eyes, he was a little uncertain for the first time: "A reliable manager is even rarer than a reliable actor. What do you think is so beautiful?" What's the matter! However, if you can trust me, I will find someone to help you first."

"Of course I can trust you." Qiao Beiyu was full of confidence.

Su Lingjia was embarrassed for a moment, snorted and said meanly: "This person is Gu Yu, an old friend of mine, who used to be a reporter, and was resigned because he reported something that the higher authorities did not want to report. He studied law, so he has no problem negotiating prices, fighting with paparazzi, and interacting with fans, but this guy is not from the entertainment industry and has no connections, so he can only be considered half-qualified."

Although Su Lingjia said so, Qiao Beiyu knew that it was not easy to find such an upright and trustworthy economic man.

"You can ask him to help you until you have a better manager. As for the script review..." Su Lingjia waved his hand, "Forget it, let me check it out for you for the time being, you bumpkin!"

"I will definitely learn from you seriously and strive for early independence." Qiao Beiyu smiled.

The next day, Su Lingjia notified Qiao Beiyu to meet the agent he introduced.Gu Yu was about the same age as Su Lingjia, also at the age of 26. He looked gentle and shy, like a scholar.

After meeting, Qiao Beiyu directly confessed everything. Gu Yu was surprised by his generous attitude: "Aren't you asking anything?"

Qiao Beiyu shrugged: "I don't know much about these things myself. It's meaningless to ask before I learn to understand. Of course, the key is that I believe in Director Su's vision. I don't doubt people, and I don't doubt people." He smiled slightly, "press From my understanding, the two of us are like cooperating in a project, I am in charge of product quality, you are in charge of after-sales service, as for publicity and sales, isn’t there an investor doing it now?”

Gu Yu laughed: "Okay, then have a good cooperation."

He took out a small black leather book: "Then let's start now. I have an audition recommended by Ling Jia. It is a historical drama being filmed by Yinxing Company. It tells the history of the rise and fall of a big family in ancient times. The lead role is played from adolescence to old age. The role you're auditioning for is the lead character's teenage years."
