Rejecting 996, the capital of the whole world is broken

Chapter 136 My future is not a dream

Interview site.

Before arriving, both mother and son had imagined the interview scene in their minds.

It's not that high-class, but at least it's full of the atmosphere of the entertainment industry. Of course, no one knows what this atmosphere looks like.
The result did not disappoint them.

The interview was held in a big hotel next to the TV station. It is true that many celebrities have stayed in this hotel.

There is no need for the Mengwan agency to do any extra decoration, the hotel already has a strong star feel.

The interview was held in the large conference room on the second floor of the hotel.

Led by the receptionist, the mother and son went upstairs, where they saw dozens of people and families who came for interviews like them.

When inviting us by phone, the other party specifically emphasized that since the children participating in the test were basically just adults, they needed to be accompanied by a guardian.

It's not for anything else, but mainly because if I'm selected, I can confirm the time of joining the group with the guardian in time, so there's no time to delay. If your family doesn't have time, we can find someone quickly.

As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. Seeing so many people coming for the interview, everyone subconsciously dispelled the last bit of concern about the interview in their hearts.

As the interview officially began, everyone's trust continued to increase.

Because three or four people went in one after another and were all ruthlessly eliminated!
Some interviewers didn't even give me a good look.

This elimination and the status of the teachers have invisibly enhanced trust and authority.

At this point, the mentality of the mother and son also changed. They began to get nervous and start to look forward to it.

In the end, my son’s interview results are pending.

Even though it is just a pending status, this kind of pending status is extremely rare at the scene.

As of now, mother and son had interviewed nearly 30 people in total, and their son was one of the only two who got a pending position!

Not a single person passed the direct interview.

Then, the mother and son were invited by the staff to the third floor, which was also a conference room, but it was a mini conference room with a very small space. There was only a teacher in it who looked very fashionably dressed.

First, the teacher evaluated her son's performance, using a lot of professional terms, but the mother didn't remember much.
Anyway, just like what they said when they were arguing outside the security booth, the teacher values ​​my son very much.

In simple terms, it means that I think this child has great potential to become a movie star.

but!

This does not mean that he will be able to participate in the film, which is why he was given a pending spot.

He is a very good and excellent person, but unfortunately his appearance is very different from the movie character!
It’s not that he is not handsome, he is quite handsome, but his face is a little too kind, which doesn’t quite fit the role. If he had acting skills, it would certainly be possible, but it’s a pity that he is a blank slate now and cannot make up for the lack of appearance through acting skills.

But the good thing is that he is a blank slate!
And it is a blank sheet of paper with unlimited potential! In other words, his future has unlimited possibilities!
Of course, the teacher didn't just say that.

He also brought out some information as examples, such as who before them was like this at the beginning, but then ended up like this and that.

Anyway, he managed to pull his son's heart back up from the bottom due to that sentence. And he even raised it to a higher level!

Let your son feel that the current failure is nothing compared to the bright future!
The mother was also very surprised. She didn't expect her son to have such great potential in this area! If she had known earlier, she would have cultivated him earlier! Maybe he could have been admitted to an art school directly this year!
At least it’s a decent university!
After the teacher’s explanation, both mother and son were full of expectations, but there was also a problem before them.

What should I do next?

I have the ability and potential, huge ones, but I still can't act in this movie!
After the mother asked sincerely, the teacher finally gave the answer.

"That's why we gave him TBD, because our company plans to train him!"

After hearing this, regardless of any worries the mother had, the son stood up immediately.

A thank you to the teacher is from the bottom of my heart
Isn’t this a blessing in disguise! A movie was not selected, but it was directly valued by the company!
Cultivation! This literal meaning alone is far more promising than acting in a movie!

Afterwards, the teacher brought out some more materials, which were basically about training direction and methods, combining theory with practice. In the process of learning, students can also get many opportunities for practical performances.

Not only movies, but also a series of projects such as advertising, short videos, flat shooting, etc., and even projects that require sharing the stage with popular stars.

No one can help but be moved by that blueprint for the future.

My son has even started to fantasize about his future life.
But the teacher's next words threw the question to the mother, and the joyful atmosphere came to an abrupt end.

"This is the general situation. The company cannot give you any absolute guarantees. After all, we can teach you acting skills and give you a platform, but we cannot teach you how to be a human being."

"Resources are very important in this circle, so how you conduct yourself is also very important. It depends on you. I can only say that I have given you the best protection. Your future is in your own hands."

"So, you can't give the company any guarantees either. I've said before that the company will take a cut of your film pay and appearance fees. This is industry practice. After all, the company is not a charity."

“So if there is no guarantee that you can generate profits or traffic for the company, the company will not be obligated to train you.”

"Let's be realistic. We've trained you for two years and given you a lot of resources. If you learn something and then start your own studio or join another company, wouldn't that be a big loss for us? I think you can understand what I mean, right?"

"So in order to avoid this unnecessary loss, the company charges a packaging fee in the early stages."

"The company does not make any profit from this fee. Instead, it will all be invested in you to improve you. This way, even if something unexpected happens later, the company will only have invested some resources and will not suffer too much loss."

"Of course, if our cooperation goes very smoothly, the company will sign a new contract with you in two or three years and refund the previous packaging fee to you."

"As I said before, the future is in your own hands. All the company can do is to provide you with the greatest possible assistance. I hope you can return the favor in the future and make our investment in you worthwhile."

At this point, the son could no longer hold back. The fact that the future was in his own hands was enough to make him unable to stop, not to mention that these systems were so reasonable.
It’s as if my future self can influence this economic company. The teacher said that he hopes I can return the favor!
Is it city enough?
In comparison, my mother was obviously calmer and asked the most core question.

How much is the fee?

The teacher put three contracts on the table:
"There are three categories, A, B, and C, with different costs, training strengths, and resources."

"Class A is 120 million, Class B is 80, and Class C is 50. Given his potential, I personally recommend Class A."
