Chapter 359: Advantages and disadvantages of large and small companies, shot efficiently!

[Breaking news! The roles of "My Life of Mediocre and Inaction" have been re-decided. The third female role will go to Xinrui Entertainment. Xinrui Entertainment actors are making great efforts. Who can get this big pie? ]

[Xinrui Entertainment took over "My Life of Mediocre and Inaction" and entered the field of serious drama. Is it trying to get rid of the label of "online drama factory"? 】

[Breaking news, all the second-tier artists of Xinrui Entertainment have publicly expressed their desire to take the No. 3 female role, and the company has decided to hold an open audition the day after tomorrow! ]

[Report again! Rumor has it that a first-line female star from Xinrui Entertainment is also interested in taking over "My Life of Mediocre and Inaction", and the competition for the third female role is fierce! ]

In just one night, it became known that Xinrui Entertainment had won the third female role in this drama. Not only did it become known in the industry, it also caused an uproar on the Internet.

Everyone knows that Jinli has been confirmed to play the No. 1 female role, and now Xinrui Entertainment has chosen No. 3 female role, so who will be No. 2 female role?
With this expectation, the news on the Internet spread more and more.

But many people probably didn't expect that the press release saying "A first-line actress from Xinrui Entertainment is interested in playing the No. 3 female role" was secretly sent by Qiu Qiwen.

She wanted to use this to test the company's attitude.

When she was issuing the press release, she found that it was not just her. Several other first-line actresses in the company were also quietly issuing similar press releases. It seemed that everyone was not a fool and had the same goal.

Although she is only the third female role, she is the third female role in this hit drama.

As an actor, the most basic pursuit is to act well and act in hit dramas.

Also because of these press releases on the Internet, the company's originally planned open recruitment process was temporarily changed.

Xinrui Entertainment is currently holding an emergency meeting and has summoned all the artists' agents to discuss whether to give first-line actors the opportunity to participate in this drama.

On the other hand, Xu Wenwen's company took advantage of the popularity on the Internet and immediately announced that Xu Wenwen would play the second female role.

As soon as this news came out, it caused a huge uproar.

[Is it a collective reunion of the cast of Dream Builders?]
[Great, I've always wanted the two of us to get together and film another movie, it feels so good!]
[Dream Builder Girls Group Fei Fei Fei!!]
[Before The Dream Builders started streaming online, I was already looking forward to My Life of Mediocre and Inaction]
As soon as the news that Xu Wenwen got the No. 2 female role came out, countless female artists in the industry were gnashing their teeth!
Many people were striving for the second female role, but in the end, no director was contacted and the role was given to someone else.

But if you think about it carefully, considering the influence of "Dream Builder", it is normal to give it to Xu Wenwen.

After all, the two have co-starred in "Dream Builders", and "My Life of Mediocre and Ineffective" is obviously a rural revitalization film. It can be linked with "Dream Builders". It is normal for the crew to want to take advantage of the popularity.

After Xu Wenwen's revelation came out, Qiu Qiwen completely gave up on marketing. She no longer wanted to play the third female role in the show.

Xu Wenwen was her destined nemesis.

Before the filming of "Dream Builders", the media secretly compared the two.

She got the second female role in "Dream Builder" thanks to her uncle's relationship, but because of insufficient confidentiality, her uncle had to fire her to appease the anger of the investor, and then the role was given to Xu Wenwen.

The huge success of "Dream Builders" this summer is the biggest revenge for her, which is enough to prove how much benefit she has given up.

Later, when filming "Assassination", she competed with Xu Wenwen for the female lead. Now in "My Mediocre Life", does she have to be inferior to Xu Wenwen, with her playing the second female lead and herself playing the third female lead?
Obviously, a year ago, the status of both parties was not like this, but a year later, the two have reversed each other and their status in the entertainment industry is no longer the same.

Qiu Qiwen looked at the entertainment news and turned it off with mixed feelings.

Not long after, my agent called and asked hesitantly, "Qiwen, didn't you say before that you wanted to play the third female role in "My Life of Mediocre and Inaction"?

After comprehensive discussions within the company, we have decided to allow you, the top stars, to join the competition. What do you think?"

The agent was very nervous when she asked this question, because she knew that her artist was tempted by this opportunity.

But she really didn't want to play the third female role in this drama. The company was under pressure from public opinion and first-line stars in other companies, so it allowed all first-line actors to participate in the selection.

But this does not mean that the company will favor front-line personnel when making selections.

On the contrary, the status of first-line stars will become their biggest disadvantage. The company would rather create a brand new first-line star so as to obtain the greatest benefits, while the already mature first-line stars will not become more powerful by continuing to participate in this drama.

Not every first-line artist is Jinli.

Qiu Qiwen pretended to think for a while before saying, "I am a little tempted, but I thought about what you said before, so forget it. I will not participate in this competition."

The agent heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you've figured it out. Even if first-tier artists are competing this time, your advantage is not that great. The company still prefers to choose second-tier actors."

She paused and said tactfully, "You know, the company's biggest expectation for actors is to rise to the first-tier. As for the development after that, the company actually doesn't have a clear plan. After all, there are still too few first-tier artists in the company, but there are many second-tier artists."

Qiu Qiwen sighed softly in her heart and said nothing on her face, but she knew that what her agent said was true.

She chose Xinrui Entertainment because the company was still on the rise, but was smaller in size and would not impose too many restrictions on its artists.

The advantage of a small company is that the artists are relatively free and the resources are more concentrated, but when she reached the first line, the disadvantages of a small company also became apparent.

Their peak is just the first line, and they dare not think about what happens after that.

Because small companies have limited resources, and if they want to support stars to the top, they need to invest a lot of resources and connections, which is a huge pressure for small companies.

On the contrary, first-tier entertainment companies have great advantages in this regard, because what they lack the least is first-tier stars, and they are also committed to turning first-tier stars into international superstars to obtain greater profits.

There is a way to play at the top level, and there is a way to play at the bottom level.

The different development methods of the two companies have led to different directions in cultivating artists.

Jinli here.

On the first day of filming the theme of "I Can't Sing", the originally scheduled evening show was suddenly cancelled, and Jinli did not ask Sui Lingfang what happened.

It was not until the next day when they were filming the theme "I Can't Act" that Jinli discovered that the time she had to shoot suddenly became less.

However, she still maintained a very high shooting efficiency, which was not much different from yesterday's shooting.

Ordinary people will become more focused because of the shorter shooting time, just like workers, who are most energetic for two or three hours a day, and will feel sluggish after that period. But Jinli is different. She is in a state of getting twice the result with half the effort. Whether she works for two hours or five hours, she maintains a similar level of state.

But based on the comparison of the first day's shooting time, Jinli asked Sui Lingfang after finishing a day's work: "Why did the shooting time suddenly become shorter today?"

Sui Lingfang said calmly: "I communicated with the person in charge of the on-site shooting, and he thought that you didn't need to shoot for such a long time. You are in a very good condition and the probability of getting a good photo is high. The photographers almost had nothing to shoot.

Since every picture is perfect, why waste so much energy and go through the motions? "

Jinli raised her eyebrows: "So he agreed to your request so easily?"

Sui Lingfang smiled and said, "No, I first took the person in charge to your shooting room and let him see your shooting status with his own eyes.

Then I told him that if he refused to agree to my conditions, I would let Ms. Dai Xueling talk to him. With a two-pronged approach, the person in charge finally gave in and compressed your shooting time to 4 hours. "

She continued, "The person in charge was worried today, so he went to watch you in the morning, but he didn't say anything. So you can imagine that you are impeccable."

Although the length of time made no difference to Jinli, she was still grateful for her agent's arrangement, which saved her a lot of free time.

She can use this time to practice questions and be better prepared.

Sui Lingfang thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't think I care enough about you. I should have mentioned these conditions to Fangfei when we were discussing the shoot, so that they can make the arrangements."

Jinli shook her head: "If it was at that time, Fangfei might not agree to our conditions. After all, their entire company attaches great importance to my photo shoot and they would definitely hope that we could shoot longer."

In the entertainment industry, temporary changes on the spot are very common. Unless a very powerful star can set firm conditions, everything else is arranged on the spot.

Jinli and Fangfei help each other, and neither of them can gain the upper hand. This is the most fundamental problem.

Because everyone wants something else from the other party, no one can make very strong demands.

The second day's shooting was completed smoothly. At the same time, Xinrui Entertainment and Xu Wenwen also broke the news on their blogs, which seemed very lively.

When Jinli finished filming, she also heard Chen Qin mention the excitement on the blog today.

After learning that Xinrui Entertainment had not yet confirmed the actress for the third female role, and also hearing that they were openly selecting, even the company's first-line artists could participate, she said with some curiosity:
"For new entertainment, if they choose a first-tier artist, it would be a losing deal. They should prefer to give the opportunity to a second-tier artist and then support a first-tier artist."

Chen Qin nodded and said, "Sister Fang also mentioned this when we were eating melons at noon. She said that Xinrui Entertainment was just pretending to appease some of the stars in the company. This big pie can only be given to the second-tier stars of the company. Whoever takes it seriously will lose."

This is a very obvious truth. If any first-tier star really takes this selection seriously, then we can only say that those involved are confused.

Chen Qin didn't know what she was thinking of, and asked again: "By the way, Sister Jinli, do you want to clear your schedule for tomorrow night? If so, I will ask Xiao Cheng not to pick us up so early."

Jinli thought for a moment and said, "I will stay here for one night tomorrow and leave the day after tomorrow. After taking the theme photos of Fangfei, I will go somewhere else to play with my friends."

Chen Qin nodded without asking too many questions. When Jinli wanted to tell her, she would tell her naturally.

If I didn't tell her, it would mean that I didn't want her to participate in this private trip.

As for Sister Jinli's friends, one person after another flashed through Chen Qin's mind.

Oh, don’t have too many, I can’t even count them all.

Time passed quickly, and soon the third day of shooting arrived as scheduled.

The theme of this day was [I am pretentious]. Jinli took abstract photos for two days and managed to make expressions after special effects without any auxiliary props.

In comparison, today’s shoot was much more normal than expected. It was just about processing expressions, without having to pre-set complicated scenes.

The theme presented by [I Don’t Want to Be Pretentious] is also very simple——

The more you tell me not to be pretentious, the more I will do it for you. Not only can I be pretentious, I can also be cool and awesome!
So the theme of this project is to take two sets of photos with strong contrasting styles to illustrate the diversity of a person and break the stereotype.

Because it was too simple, today's shooting ended 2 hours early.

Jinli once again improved her efficiency, taking two sets of photos in just two hours.

When the photographer put down the camera and clapped to indicate that Jinli's three-day shoot had ended perfectly, and the whole audience stood up and applauded Jinli, Jinli was still a little confused.

She deliberately lifted her skirt and walked in front of the photographer and asked, "Is this the end?"

The photographer smiled jokingly: "If you want to take a few more pictures, I'd be happy to do so, but these pictures will be kept as my private collection.

Oh, by the way, because what you are wearing is Fang's next spring couture ready-to-wear garment, which has not yet been released, I still have to apply to Fang Fei, hoping to give this photo a shorter unlocking time. "

Jinli came back to her senses and smiled slightly: "No, I won't waste your film. The shooting these days is very pleasant. I am very happy to work with you. I hope I will have the opportunity to work with you in the future."

The photographer held Jinli's hand and said sincerely, "You are the most pleasant star I have ever worked with, no doubt about it. I think your agility should be more reflected on the runway, and I hope to see you at Fashion Week this year."

Jinli said regretfully: "I'm afraid that won't work. Fangfei has invited me to the Fashion Week this year, but I've already signed a contract and I have to prepare to join the crew to film."

The photographer responded quickly: "It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to be active in the show, whether it is this year, next year, or the year after, the wait is worth it. I hope I can shoot you again by then."
-
Jinli changed her clothes in the exclusive lounge, removed her makeup, and came out with her bare face, wearing a hat and a mask.

The clothes she was wearing at the time were very casual clothes, but because there were still many paparazzi outside watching her closely, she still had to go through the anti-peeping passage and take the car sent by the company.

As soon as she arrived at the passage, she saw Fangfei's chief designer Dai Xueling.

Jinli was a little surprised, "Boss Dai, you came here specially to wait for me?"

Dai Xueling looked her up and down, and suddenly said, "Jinli, there are too many paparazzi outside now. Are you interested in playing a game with me?"

I was stunned by AutoNavi today. It can't adapt to the magical mountain city of Chongqing and can't distinguish high and low T﹏T
