After the vase cannon fodder is reborn

"Dad, I'm back."

Xiusheng walked slowly but firmly behind his father.His voice is much thicker and deeper than before, his body leans forward slightly, and there is a very inconspicuous arch from his shoulders to his spine. This posture makes his back look not as tall and straight as before, but it is also invisible. Very stubborn and aloof.

It was a gesture of compromise, and it was also a gesture of more precipitation and fullness after experiencing wind and rain.It is like the rice that is bent by the tassels during the harvest season.Xiusheng's young face is still green, but his eyes have become calm and bright, no longer immature as before.

The same scene and the same make-up, Wen Zhuoyu only relied on his eyes, body movements and slight adjustments in his voice to forcefully perform the age difference that "seems like a world away".

Not to mention a rookie who is under 20 years old, even an old actor who has been immersed in the performing arts industry for many years may not be able to handle it with such proficiency.

At the end of a scene, director Cen Wangnian sat in front of the monitor and slapped his thigh excitedly. Song Bai also expressed that this scene was very hearty.

Wen Zhuoyu smiled and said nothing.His performance today is just stable, and in his own opinion, there is nothing outstanding.But it is also a good thing that the shooting went so smoothly on the first day of starting up.

"Don't you have an agent yet?" Song Bai suddenly asked such a question during the film break.

Wen Zhuoyu was a little surprised, and didn't quite understand why Songbai would ask such a question.

Song Bai smiled and said, "I'm asking you on behalf of our company."

The film and television company that Songbai signed is called Pendulum Culture, which is an established film and television company.Although it is not as large as Star Eucalyptus Film and Television, and it is not even listed, it has a good reputation in the industry.He is very good at filming TV dramas and dramas with historical themes, and has signed more than 80 actors under his banner, ranging in age from 20 to 60 years old.

The owner of Pendulum Culture is surnamed Bai, and he is in his 40s this year.When he was young, there were not many entertainment channels, not to mention playing computer and games. At that time, it was rare for people to have a TV at home.So Boss Bai first grew up listening to storytelling on the radio.It directly caused Boss Bai to be particularly interested in film and television works with historical jokes.

So after Boss Bai made money, he opened a film and television company specializing in historical dramas and dramas.It’s just that in the past few years, Boss Bai has also realized that the shooting themes of Pendulum Culture are a bit narrow, and he is planning to slowly transform—collect more books of urban dramas, and then try the deep water of movies.

It is precisely because Mr. Bai has paid special attention to the film market recently that he has noticed Wen Zhuoyu.

Regardless of acting skills, Bai always felt that Wen Zhuoyu's vision in reading books was very accurate.Both investment and participating works are very good.I also found out that Wen Zhuoyu had been in the industry for so long, but he had neither signed a contract with a film and television company nor found an agent, so he couldn't help being tempted.

This time Songbai and Wen Zhuoyu were filming the movie "Embroidered Life", Mr. Bai specially greeted Songbai, and wanted to find out Wen Zhuoyu's tone.It would be the best if Wen Zhuoyu is willing to sign with Pendulum Culture.Even if you don't want to, everyone can cooperate.

Wen Zhuoyu didn't intend to sign a brokerage contract with any film and television company after reliving his life.Because he doesn't want to bind himself.However, the signing conditions given by Pendulum Culture are particularly loose——

Only signing a film and television contract with Wen Zhuoyu does not restrict Wen Zhuoyu from receiving foreign dramas and announcements.The revenue share can also be discussed, and even through Songbai, Boss Bai also conveyed the meaning that if Wen Zhuoyu is willing, he can become a shareholder of the pendulum culture...

shooting scene

Cen Wangnian sat in front of the monitor and repeatedly watched the two scenes that had just been filmed.The staff of the prop group came in and out, busy arranging the scene 30 years ago.

Wen Zhuoyu sat outside the studio, waiting for the set while applying makeup, thinking about whether to sign a contract with Pendulum Culture, or simply invest in Pendulum Culture.

He remembered that in his previous life, because of various mistakes made by the decision-makers and several failures in film and television investment, Pendulum Culture did not survive ten years later, and closed down almost four or five years later.Before the bankruptcy, the last few costume dramas shot by Pendulum Culture were still of good quality and quantity, and the quality of the shooting was not affected by the company's troubles.

It can be said that this is a very thoughtful film and television company, but it is a pity that the investment vision is not very good, and several films it made suffered from Waterloo, which directly dragged down the entire company.

This happens to be what Wen Zhuoyu is best at.After being reborn, Wen Zhuoyu certainly knows what themes and works will be popular in the entertainment industry in the next few years, and he can even specify which movies and TV shows will be popular.If Wen Zhuoyu cooperates with Pendulum Culture and invests in the filming of those works that are destined to be a hit, can it be more refined while taking into account the box office and ratings?

After all, if Wen Zhuoyu is alone, although he can also invest in the movies and TV series he likes, it is okay to let him play a role. If he is allowed to fully control the film and television production, Wen Zhuoyu doesn't have the energy.

Needless to say, Wen Zhuyu was interested in many of the blockbuster works co-invested by Star Eucalyptus Films and Ying Jia in his previous life.But with Wen Zhuoyu's character, it is obviously impossible to cooperate with Pei Jinan.He himself can't take care of both the roles of director and production team, so he can only seek like-minded partners to work together.

Thinking about it this way, pendulum clock culture is also a very good choice.

Wen Zhuoyu was a little moved.After finishing work that night, I called Gu Xihuai to discuss it.

Gu Xihuai also supported Wen Zhuoyu's idea, and suggested with a smile: "If you don't want to join the pendulum culture, you can also consider my studio."

As the heir of the Gu Group, Gu Xihuai did not sign a contract with any film and television company in the circle after graduation, but opened a studio by himself.It's called a studio, but its function is similar to that of a film and television company. The only difference is that Gu Xihuai's studio is the only artist under his name.

It is worth mentioning that the live broadcast software developed by Gu Xihuai also falls under the name of his studio.Now, under the continuous maintenance and upgrading of the development team hired by Gu Xihuai, the functions of this live broadcast software are becoming more and more perfect and stable.

As a result, many variety shows that need popularity have gradually developed live broadcast links, and they have cooperated with Gu Xihuai's live broadcast software one after another.Some multinational companies also valued the functions of live broadcast software for face-to-face communication and multi-party online real-time meetings, and signed contracts with Gu Xihuai for the enterprise version of the live broadcast software, which made Gu Xihuai a lot of money.

Now Wen Zhuoyu and Gu Xihuai are using the face-to-face communication function of the live broadcast software to directly start the video chat.

Gu Xihuai mentioned joining the studio. In fact, Wen Zhuoyu also considered whether to set up a studio at the beginning, and felt that after opening the studio, he had to deal with too many trivial matters, and he had to recruit and manage team members himself. I have to balance my energy with study and stock trading. I am really impatient to deal with so many trivial matters, and finally procrastinated until now.Just received the olive branch thrown by the pendulum culture.

In fact, Pendulum Culture is not the first film and television company in the industry that wants to sign Wen Juyu. The conditions offered were even more favorable than the pendulum clock culture, but none of them moved Wen Zhuoyu.

Because those film and television companies and brokerage companies have more or less disadvantages that Wen Zhuoyu can't bear. Only Pendulum Culture, although not the largest in scale and not the best in prospects, has won Wen Zhuoyu's respect and recognition.

After all, Wen Zhuoyu didn't want to be an actor to make money, but to spend money to pay for his hobbies.With this bottom line in place, Wen Zhuoyu certainly can't understand those film crews and production companies who intentionally follow the trend of filming in order to make money and make crude productions.

As for joining Gu Xihuai's studio, Wen Zhuoyu never considered this proposal at all.Because Wen Zhuoyu has always firmly believed that "friends cannot do business together".In my previous life, I was used to intrigues and intrigues, and examples of relatives and friends turning against each other for interests or disagreements. As long as Wen Zhuoyu still regarded Gu Xihuai as a friend for a day, he would not partner in business with him.

Gu Xihuai did not expect that Wen Zhuoyu's reason for rejecting him would be this.For a moment, I didn't know whether to be happy or disappointed, so I had to change the subject with a wry smile: "...So, the pendulum culture is the most suitable for you."

"I think so too." Wen Zhuoyu half leaned against the head of the bed, while video chatting with Gu Xihuai, while watching the market with his laptop: "Are you tired today?"

Doing a road show sounds like fun, but it is actually a particularly torturous job.According to the itinerary, the crew members have to travel to at least one city a day. Sometimes they have a road show in this city in the morning and fly to another city in the evening.Even rotation is a common thing.

Wen Zhuoyu had followed several film roadshows in his previous life.At that time, he was still a tepid little rookie with no background and no reputation. The crew and the agency did not regard him as a human being. They not only arranged red-eye flights for him in the middle of the night, but even asked him to talk to other actors' assistants. Live in a hostel as well.Many times Wen Zhuoyu couldn't even live in a guest house, and had to go to the cinema to prepare for a performance after getting off the plane, and all the rest time was a few hours on the plane.

But Gu Xihuai's treatment is obviously much better than Wen Zhuoyu's.After all, he is the son of Gu's Group, and he is also the most popular and capable actor in the industry. He has a better personal relationship with director Chen Xusheng, and neither the crew nor the producer dared to tire Gu Xihuai.Not only did we arrange a stay in a five-star hotel, but we only needed to travel to one city every day.When participating in the road show, you don't have to sing and play games like Wen Zhuoyu, you just need to sit there quietly and answer questions from reporters and fans.

Therefore, instead of feeling tired, Gu Xihuai still had time to visit nearby attractions after the road show.After getting a good night's sleep, I got up early the next day and went to another city for a road show.

"It's good if you're not tired." Wen Zhuoyu smiled reassuringly, and then heard Gu Xihuai say seriously: "I even bought you a gift, and I will give it to you when I go back."

After a pause, Gu Xihuai said with some regret: "It would be great if you came with us. The two of us can go out for a stroll together."

Wen Zhuoyu's heart moved, and he said: "When "Twins" is promoted, we can be together."
