Full-time actor

Chapter 43 [43] Very 6+7?

"Why are the houses in this imperial capital so expensive?"

In a hotel near Nortel, Chen Yu's father, Chen Peidong, was a little unable to afford the rent in the imperial capital.

He has actually been looking for a house these days.

He could afford the hotel fee of 1 per day for 2-[-] days, but after a few more days, he would be unable to bear it.

Therefore, renting a house is urgent.

But Chen Peidong has been looking at houses for two days, but he hasn't found one he likes. It's either too expensive or too shabby. In short, the good ones are not cheap, and the cheap ones are unlivable. After all, Lao Chen is also a well-known figure in Su City, so he is allowed to live in the basement. That is definitely not wanted.

"No, then we can only go to the suburbs!"

Chen Peidong plans to go to a distant place early tomorrow morning.

Boom boom boom!
  There was a knock on the door, accompanied by Chen Yu's voice: "Dad, open the door!"

"I'm coming!"

Chen Peidong hurriedly put away the newspaper full of rental information, and opened the door in his pajamas. He thought it was just Chen Yu, but when he saw Bian Xiang behind him, he was slightly stunned.

"Hello, uncle, my name is Bian Xiang, you can just call me A Xiang!"

Before Chen Yu could introduce him, Bian Xiang licked his face and went up to him.

Chen Peidong could only subconsciously say: "Hello, hello!"

But his eyes seemed to be asking Chen Yu: "Who is he?"

"my friend!"

"Filming!"

Chen Yu said in Chen Peidong's ear, and Chen Peidong suddenly said oh, and began to look at Bian Xiang again. He was afraid that his son would associate with some bad people or be deceived.

This is probably the most normal reaction of every parent.

Chen Peidong is certainly no exception.

"Dad, pack up, I've found the house!"

"We'll stay there tonight!"

Chen Yu said to Chen Peidong, but Chen Peidong obviously hadn't reacted yet: "House, what house?"

"Our boss provides it!"

Chen Yu pointed at Bian Xiang, and Bian Xiang hurriedly said: "Brother Chen, he is joking. This is how I hire your son to be the training teacher for my group performances..."

This rhetoric was, of course, agreed upon by Chen Yu and Bian Xiang along the way.

Until he got into the car, Chen Peidong was still in a state of confusion.

trainer?

Can my own son be someone else’s training teacher?

Chen Peidong couldn't believe it!
  After passing the preliminary examination, he can become a teacher.

Chen Peidong didn't say a word along the way, but he felt more and more uneasy in his heart; even when he arrived at the rental house, it was a renovated rural civil construction house of about 40 square meters on the second floor, with a bathroom, a kitchen, and all the facilities.

Chen Peidong was still very uneasy, and even felt more and more that his son had been deceived.
  It's a good thing that MLM hasn't started in the past few years, otherwise Lao Chen would definitely feel that his son was deceived into a MLM organization.

But even so, he still felt that he should talk to his son.

You've only made a "friend" for a day or two, and you already trust him so much?

"You lack the beatings of society, young man!"

“Let’s learn a lesson this time!”

Chen Peidong did not clean up the house, but walked out of the room, and was about to go find Chen Yu when the yard suddenly became noisy. Countless young men and women dressed in different clothes walked to the yard downstairs under the leadership of Bian Xiang.

This battle shocked Chen Peidong.

He couldn't deal with so many people. Chen Peidong immediately picked up a mop from the side and held it tightly in front of him. He stood by the wall on the second floor, looking at the stairs and downstairs.

But he didn't expect that his son Chen Yu would actually stand in front of this group of people.

The originally noisy courtyard became quiet as Chen Yu stood still.

Bian Xiang didn't even shout.

"..."

Chen Peidong was a little confused for a moment.

what's the situation?
  The leader of the bad guys is actually my son?

"Call Brother Chen!"

The key point was that Bian Xiang was still speaking from the side, and all the extras suddenly shouted in unison: "Brother Chen!"

In fact, many people here know Chen Yu. Some of them know his deeds, got roles in one day, and even became the director of "Toward a Republic".

Some of them had just experienced Chen Yu's power in person this afternoon, so they admired him very much.

So this shout from Brother Chen was not only loud, but many people were convinced.

"It's over!"

Chen Peidong was trembled by this shout, and he was completely frightened.

His legs are a little weak, otherwise he would have to go down and question him no matter what.

"You are welcome!"

"My surname is Chen. The one with the single name will heal, the one that cures the disease will heal!"

"Brother Yu!"

Suddenly there was a shout from the crowd, and many people immediately followed him; Chen Yu recognized this guy, and the extra performer standing at the front this afternoon also showed his face.

I have a little bit of acting skills.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense!"

"Tomorrow you will be filming your first scene of causing trouble in the street. I will tell you the key points. Listen carefully, and then rehearse first!"

"You want the director to impress you, right?"

"Then be serious!" Chen Yu's words are quite convincing to the group of people in front of him.

If there hadn't been that scene in the afternoon, many people might still be unconvinced by him; but now, they all know Chen Yu's strength.

If someone can get a role on the first day, it must be because they have the skills.

Although the extras are at the bottom of the group, with no acting skills, no education, and even poor character and quality, they have one thing that no one else in this industry can match, and that is hard work and motivation.

The vast majority of group performers really want to be recognized by others.

Of course there are those who are too lazy to work, but most of the extras Chen Yu saw in his previous life worked hard every day, but they used it in the wrong direction, or in other words, they were limited by their academic qualifications and IQ.

Chen Yu's words expressed their truest thoughts.

Let the director see them!
  This is probably what every extra performer is looking forward to; who doesn’t want to be like Chen Yu, who can win the favor of the director on the first day and then get a role with lines?

Many people actually envy the fact that they have broken back molars.

"Let me talk about positioning first!"

"As a bit player, when filming, the most important thing is to position yourself correctly!"

"There is no need to learn acting before you get a role on camera; learn your body first!"

"The most basic thing about body shape is stance!"

"The so-called positioning refers to the position where you stand on the filming set; a good positioning can make the director pay attention to you, but it will never take over the spotlight. The extras cannot steal the limelight of the leading actor and supporting actors, but you cannot block it either. Lens!”

"So this position is very subtle..."

"It will change, not be static, because the position corresponds to the camera position!"

"You know the camera position, it's the photographer's lens and the crane..."

"Let's start with the first camera position. Brother Xiang, set up an analog camera..."

"..."

Chen Yu explained there seriously. While talking, he also demonstrated personally, and sometimes even transformed into a photographer or director.

Bian Xiang looked on from the side and became more and more shocked.

He never expected that Chen Yu would gain so much from his first explanation. The key point was that the theories he taught were different from those of professional teachers. Even a layman like him could understand it, let alone someone who was present. of other people.

Some of the guys who were originally unconvinced with Chen Yu actually listened more seriously than the last one.

They are also human beings, and of course they know that what Chen Yu said is full of useful information for them now.

Moreover, these are Chen Yu's senior experiences when he was playing a small role in his previous life, and they can be said to be tailor-made for them; the teachers in the acting class will not talk about these at all. What kind of students are they teaching?
  And senior bit players will not be able to teach them.

Teaching apprentices will starve the master to death. Only those like Chen Yu who have no direct conflict of interest with them can teach with peace of mind.

"Okay, do you almost understand the positioning?"

"It's okay, I will take you to practice it in a while; then we will talk about movement!"

"..."

Chen Yu started to demonstrate there again.

Standing on the second floor, Chen Peidong, who originally thought that his son was the leader of the underworld, has never closed his mouth since Chen Yu started talking.

Is this... is this still the son I know?

When did this kid know so much?

Moreover, he really came to be a teacher!
  The various young people in the yard were obviously the "extra actors" who were waiting for filming early in the morning.

Chen Peidong was shocked, but Bian Xiang was quite excited.

He is already looking forward to tomorrow's filming.

If, as Chen Yu said, he really caught the eye of the director, then the relationship between him and the stage manager of the "Toward the Republic" crew would be completely stable.

Wang Lai actually scolded him today for what happened in the afternoon.

If something goes wrong tomorrow, the director probably won't get rid of him, but the set manager will have to get rid of him too.

"Do you want to recruit all the big crews in the Imperial Capital?"

Bian Xiang remembered what Chen Yu said to him in the evening. At that time, he really thought that Chen Yu was teasing him.

Now, his heart was pounding and about to explode.

All the imperial capital!
  If Chen Yu's explanation is really like this, why can't he monopolize the group performance market of the crew?
  "This 300 is worth it!"

“Excellent value!”

Bian Xiang doesn't need to wait until tomorrow, he feels it's worth it now.

Each extra performer gets 10 yuan, isn’t that the money that comes with it?
  Bian Xiang was thinking this, but he didn't know at all. How could Chen Yu not know what he could think of?
  300 a day is correct.

Chen Yu didn't say that it would be 300 tomorrow... That's why he worked so hard on the first day. On the second day, he could ask Bian Xiang for a high price!
  Of course, this price is also within the range that Bian Xiang can afford.

For this kind of thing, once he knows his own interests, the initiative in the negotiation will be on Chen Yu's side.

And he is not afraid of Bian Xiang's betrayal. Once Chen Yu signs a contract with the agency, it will be too late for him to fawn over!
  This is the most realistic food chain in the entertainment industry.

Once you become famous, people will only rely on you in every way.

"Eat the extras!"

"The next step is to get an important role!"

Chen Yu is quite confident about tomorrow's Chinese audio-visual schedule. Not surprisingly, he will get a role in "Dragon Movie"!

If the other party's agent is strong, it might not be a bad idea to get him some audition opportunities for popular TV series.

"Success or failure depends on tomorrow!"

Chen Yu spoke for fifteen minutes, giving others a chance to digest and practice.

He was standing aside drinking water, and out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw his father standing there visiting on the second floor with a mop in hand.

Hey, ah, ah, ah, this... what kind of look is this?
  Very chic!

Very 6+7?
