Actor: Thank you.

"What are you worried about?"

In the courtyard, Cheng Hao was practicing his voice in the practice room.

She was arranged to sing at CCTV's May Day Gala.

So she found a professional teacher for training in advance.

He also had costumes custom-made and sang and gestured in front of a large mirror in the practice room.

The song is not important, it is just some folk music. When singing, there are a large group of dancers in festive attire dancing behind him to accompany him.

CCTV always uses this tactic.

What matters is showing your face.

If you can appear in a CCTV gala, your value will increase dramatically.

Not to mention anything else, just the clothes and shoes she had to wear for the party were what merchants came to her to sponsor after CCTV announced the list.

After the evening party is broadcast, people will start advertising.

"Same style as Chenghao".

This will increase sales.

"What are you worrying about?" Zhang Yuan replied to her.

"I'm worried about the one who will go to the party with you."

"Baoqiang?" Cheng Hao straightened his collar and turned around to ask, "What's wrong with him?"

"In love."

"Pfft...Hahahaha!" The good sister suddenly burst into laughter.

"You even care about this?"

"You don't understand!" Zhang Yuan rubbed his eyebrows.

"Baoqiang may look simple, but he is not stupid."

"Not only is he not stupid, he's quite smart."

"But deep down, this guy has a stubborn side."

"Once he makes up his mind about something, even ten oxen can't pull him back."

Human nature is so contradictory.

A serial killer may be a filial son.

Well-known scholars may be domestic abusers.

Baoqiang seems silly at first sight, but after getting to know him for a while, I find him very smart. However, after getting to know him more deeply, I feel that this guy is a smart but stubborn donkey.

There is an honest side.

But this kind of honesty towards the audience is a blessing for both parties.

If you are honest with someone who has ulterior motives, then...

"Beautiful women are dangerous."

"What if he goes bankrupt?"

"Hmm?" The good sister gave him an unfriendly look.

Are you tapping me?

Zhang Yuan did not respond. Although he had taught Baoqiang a lesson, he always felt that this guy might not listen to him.

And it’s just like when Kong Laosan hit a Xiali on his motorcycle.

Some things may not change because of your appearance.

It can be said to be fate, or it can be said to be caused by character.

After all, character determines destiny.

He glanced at his phone.

"It's almost time. I'm going to go to CCTV."

"Oh, come back early, let's have dinner together in the evening."

Just go out now.

Previously, CCTV's editor-in-chief Liu came to him and used the excuse that he wanted him to shoot CCTV's annual anti-drug propaganda film.

Because he has just become the honorary anti-drug ambassador of the Sanlitun Police Station.

A life-size standee is even placed in the lobby of the police station.

The concept of "punching in" did not exist back then.

But Yang Siwei said that many of his fans online went to the police station specifically to take photos with his stand.

Anyway, the police station’s publicity purpose has been achieved. They distribute flyers to everyone who comes, and it’s quite lively.

CCTV's explanation is not entirely an excuse.

I still found myself to do the show.

The evening party banned itself, but this kind of public welfare program can still be participated in.

He readily agreed as it would also help with his image.

"Dozens of tons of drugs are seized every year."

"Tens of thousands of families have been destroyed by drug addicts..."

The crew gave him a script and asked him to read it and record the audio only once.

Then add it to the video as narration.

"Sure!" The recording teacher, wearing headphones, turned around and said to the editor-in-chief.

"The pronunciation is clear and precise."

"The tone, the breath, the emotion are all on point."

“It feels a bit like a broadcasting major.”

“That’s not common among young stars.”

“And he has a good voice.”

The recording teacher's words were meant to praise him, but they were half true and half exaggerated.

I have to praise the people brought by the editor personally, even if they are not good!

Besides, it's still good.

The recording teacher was in a good mood seeing that he was capable.

Because I have met many young actors before, especially those who are not professionally trained.

It was so bumpy that I had to work overtime to make corrections later.

This one is great, basically just needs some minor adjustments.

I can also leave work early.

"That's good, that's good." Editor-in-Chief Liu nodded and chuckled after hearing what the people in his unit said.

This guy is quite comprehensive.

While not falling behind in your professional field, you should also be clear about the overall situation.

The narration took just over an hour to record and was only adjusted two or three times, which is considered very efficient.

It turned out that the dialogue skills I learned from those veteran actors were not wasted.

"Your image on the Internet has become quite popular recently."

The editor was talking about his poisonous dog look with dark circles under his eyes and yellow teeth in "The Disciples".

"There will be a character transformation in a moment."

"The plot is..."

In the past two years, many people in the entertainment industry have been caught cheating on their partners.

For example, Da Mao from the Zero Point Band.

There were still many people who hadn't been caught, for example, Jaycee Chan had actually already started drawing at this time.

The "Yu" in Yu Quan should have been inhaled by now.

And at this time Bai Baihe had already hooked up with him.

Who would believe you if you said that this woman had no idea that he smoked?

It's all for the sake of resources, fame and fortune that we turn a blind eye.

Because she was able to infiltrate the core of the imperial circle with the help of Yu.

So CCTV made up a plot for Zhang Yuan.

A successful rock star became arrogant after becoming famous.

He smoked a lot and ended up in a cell in a drug rehabilitation center with a sallow complexion and looking like a ghost.

The setting given to him is a rock star, which can be said to be very targeted.

This shows that the higher-ups know very well which group of people are most fond of doing this kind of thing.

"Da da da……"

Inside the studio, everything was dark except for a beam of white light shining on Zhang Yuan, who was wearing prison uniform.

At this time, he put on the same makeup as in "The Disciples".

This is what CCTV wants.

Popular artists all suffer such tragic fates, the rest of you should be more careful.

"Good!" The director waved his hand: "Very good."

"One pass."

The director of the film also looked relaxed, just like the recording teacher just now.

It’s a pleasure to work with experts, and the efficiency is extremely high.

"Director, I have a small suggestion." Zhang Yuan stood up and walked to the film crew.

"what happened?"

“I felt like the ending for my character wasn’t good enough.”

Of course Zhang Yuan knew what was going on, and he was called here just to warn everyone.

But I have to think about myself too!
There are already a bunch of people online saying that I “really don’t look like an actor.”

After watching "The Disciples", I suspected that I had smoked drugs before, or even was still smoking.

There are also suggestions to check your own above.

Who the hell did I offend?
I didn't get paid much for acting in a play, and yet someone was targeting me.

So he thought that in this promotional video, he would have a BAD ENDING and someone would ask the higher-ups to investigate him.

Don't say something unintentionally, the listener may take it seriously.

It really ruined my image.

"I think this kind of plot only shows the consequences and harms of taking drugs."

"There is no deeper meaning."

"Then what do you mean?"

People at CCTV are so proud.

If Editor-in-Chief Liu hadn't arranged for him to come, the director would have ignored him.

No matter how popular you are outside, you can earn more in a year.

When he came to our studio, he was just an ordinary artist.

"I think it's better to give a solution before it's too late."

"After this plot of being locked up in a drug rehabilitation center, there is another one." "A flash of white light, the dream is awakened."

"The rising star reacted at the last moment before the needle was inserted into his vein."

"Throw the drug product into the trash can."

"Oh!" The director reacted: "I understand!"

“The plot just now about being arrested and having his reputation ruined became his fantasy and expectation for the future.”

"Put aside the drugs, and those tragic futures will not happen."

"Right!"

"Director, you and I thought exactly the same thing." He said quickly while holding it.

With this change, his character's ending is much better.

Don't let it always end badly.

"Okay... screenwriter, come here!" The director waved his hand and called the screenwriter over to make changes on the spot.

There was also a small twist, which made it much more exciting.

The director looked at Zhang Yuan, who took the water from his assistant and took a break to adjust himself.

I heard about it a while ago that a young actor suddenly got in touch with the above line.

He was still thinking how could it be possible?
Where are we here?
But now it seems that he does have real skills.

You can get into the role after acting for a while.

My brain is also busy, I can design scripts.

It is indeed rare to see someone who is both civil and military.

I added another paragraph according to his suggestion.

After taking these photos, he was allowed to stand in front of the Monument to the People's Heroes in an official manner.

It's in front of the relief of Lin Zexu destroying opium in Humen, with lines like "Cherish life and stay away from drugs".

What’s more special is that when shooting this scene, he was given a Zhongshan suit.

To appear formal.

After putting it on, I have to say, I feel my waist has become a lot stiffer.

It would be more impressive if I gave him an executive jacket.

The only thing that made him feel somewhat interesting today was that the Zhongshan suit he wore looked quite suitable.

The rest, he found boring.

But he felt that the boring things were something that others could not even ask for.

When I went home for dinner in the evening, Cheng Hao was still talking about it with a smile on his face.

"You recently made the debut issue of a magazine again."

"He's on CCTV again. I think his colleagues are envious."

She has heard many complaints from others.

It’s said that Zhang Yuan doesn’t leave food for others!
The good sister thought, just be happy in secret!

If he really didn't leave any food for you, you would still be sitting here complaining.

I've been cursing for a long time!

She knew that after winning over Bazaar Men, many more commercial endorsements came to him.

However, she asked Yang Siwei, and Zhang Yuan asked her to talk, but slowly and without rushing.

Because of this delay, I went to many places.

Some families can't wait.

That's why she knew that Zhang Yuan still left some food for others.

If he endorses everything for money, then his peers will have even more to complain about.

"Don't worry, I'll go to Hollywood to film in a few days."

“Except for the Reuters photos.”

“Then promote it online.”

"It can also raise the value of the company."

"It will be more cost-effective to take it when the time comes."

"If they run away, they run away. It doesn't matter."

"The big brands are very patient and won't just go for something casually."

“The ones that can’t wait are all small brands.”

This is how Zhang Yuan explained it to him.

"I understand." Cheng Hao knew that he had some ideas, so he didn't say anything more.

"But you haven't received many film contracts this year."

"Now for a Rush Hour 3, right?"

"Yes." Zhang Yuan nodded: "And recently there are not as many crews looking for me as before."

The time when most crews looked for him was when they were filming "The Banquet".

"The Return of the Condor Heroes" has been released, but "The Banquet" and "Curse of the Golden Flower" have not been released yet.

At that time, I would receive a stack of scripts every week.

But now that two blockbusters have been released and he has decided to go to Hollywood to film, fewer crews are looking for him.

It's not that he's not popular, it's that he became too popular and his value went up. Many small crews are discouraged and don't dare to hire him at all.

The emergence of this situation actually shows that he has reached a new level.

And it’s not necessarily a bad thing.

Screening out a large number of small and broken crews in advance saved him a lot of effort.

Not only him, but also Hua Ge, Gong Li and others have this situation.

There are both good and bad sides to rising pay quotations.

Zhang Yuan has already started planning.

He will definitely have to raise his salary.

After all, in this industry, pay represents status.

But if the pay goes any higher, few companies will be able to afford it.

He planned to release the news after his stock price rose again.

I will no longer receive film remuneration, but instead calculate my income based on my share of the crew.

This is what Chen Long did, so he still has a lot of works.

The other extreme is the leap year method.

This guy never takes any share of the profits, he only wants the film remuneration, and it has to be cash!

They may even ask the crew to pay the full amount before filming begins, and if they are not afraid, the money will not be refunded.

Therefore, Chow Yun-fat's output is very low, and fewer and fewer crews are looking for him in later years.

"See, I'm not in a hurry." Zhang Yuan wasn't too worried.

"It's okay if no one comes looking for me. I can make a lot of money by investing in movies and TV series."

"That's right... Hey, is the play you discussed with Brother Big Dog yesterday going to be okay?" asked the good sister doubtfully.

I know he's straightforward, but this is too fast a conversation.

Yang Siwei was still complaining.

My boss can't have money in his pocket. Once he has money, he spends it lavishly.

The manager also realized that Zhang Yuan could indeed make money, but he spent it even more ruthlessly.

"It should be no problem. It will be on CCTV in the first round, so it won't be a big deal."

This is why Brother Gou looked for him.

He himself has some connections in CCTV.

Then bring in Zhang Yuan, who has just got in touch with CCTV.

This is called double insurance!
If the film can be first broadcast on CCTV, it will be easy to sell it in the second and third rounds.

You know, the war TV dramas out there have become a sea of ​​blood!

It’s hard to get on provincial TV stations, let alone CCTV.

After all, opportunities are reserved for those who have connections...

"Besides, Brother Gou is a wealthy man, and it would be beneficial to cooperate with him."

"Speaking of cooperation, I have to make a trip tomorrow to call the fat woman." Zhang Yuan picked up the phone.

"Don't call me a fat bitch all the time. Even if they are your subordinates, they still have self-respect." Cheng Hao criticized him.

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything in the future, okay."

Cheng Hao is quite decent. He basically never quarrels and never belittles others in person.

After arranging the work, Zhang Yuan shook the red wine glass and spoke.

"Well...the red cheongsam you wore this afternoon was quite festive."

When the good sister heard him say this, she immediately narrowed her eyes.

"Did I spoil you?"

"You're addicted, aren't you?"

"This dress is custom made. It can't get dirty or wrinkled."

Cheng Hao immediately understood what he wanted to do.

Do some exercise after meals.

The costumes in the photos that were previously removed from "FHM" have been here once, even several times.

"It's still early before the party, so there's still time to order another set."

"Then you are not allowed to tear it!"

In fact, Cheng Hao is also a bit passionate.

After getting used to it, it feels exciting.

"Okay, but you have to wear black stockings again..."

The two of them walked towards the backyard while discussing.

Soon after, the sound of the harp and the zither was born...

Early the next morning.

Zhang Yuan led Yang Siwei to North Third Ring East Road in Dongcheng District of the imperial capital.

There is an inconspicuous office building here.

And in this office building is located one of the most powerful video websites of this era, Youku!
It is still on the East Third Ring Road now, but after being acquired by Alibaba in the future, it will move to the Alibaba Center in Wangjing.

It’s not far from the office building that Zhang Yuan bought.

I pushed the door open, greeted the front desk, and was led into a meeting room.

After the two sat down, Yang Siwei felt uneasy.

After all, the last time I went to Potato, no one paid any attention to me and I sat there for most of the day.

So what will happen this time... (End of this chapter)
