Sun Lanying had reminded herself countless times not to have wishful thinking and to quickly give up the idea that she shouldn't have.
Therefore, she forced herself to devote all her energy and time to work and study, and did not let herself have extra energy to think about it.
It took her only a very short time to master the work and become a qualified agent.
But she forgot that the greater the oppression, the more fierce the resistance. The most torturous thing in the world was precisely the word "can't get".
The more she forced herself to escape and forget, the more she yearned for it. It grew crazily like weeds after the rain, spreading endless thoughts.
"Hello, Director Pan? This is Song Ziyi. Thank you. It's like this … "
Song Ziyi's call to the crew interrupted Sun Lanying's contemplation.
Looking at these young and beautiful girls in front of her, her eyes showed a strong sense of envy.
If she could go back 20 years, she would definitely pursue the love she wanted at all costs. Now, she had better put away that unrealistic idea.
"Ring!"
Sister Hua, who was chatting with Executive Lu after finishing the discharge formalities, suddenly heard her phone ring. She nodded to Executive Lu apologetically and pressed the answer button.
After a while, seeing Song Ziyi hang up the phone, Sister Hua approached her and whispered awkwardly in her ear, "Ziyi, Yang Mi couldn't get through to you, so she called me. She, Diba, Ouyang Poxiao, Guan Xiaotong, and Tong Liya came to visit you from other places and just got off the plane. What should we do?"
Song Ziyi froze for a moment and felt warm in her heart. Since her accident in the morning, none of her friends in the circle had come to visit her. At most, they posted some words of blessing on Weibo or Facebook, which made her feel a little disappointed.
She didn't expect that they would come all the way to visit her. Their care and friendship made her feel warm in her heart.
But the problem was that Ding Ning was treating them in the evening, and he also invited the crew, so she had to attend.
But Yang Mi and others came to visit her on a special flight, and she couldn't refuse to be the host, which was too impolite, which made her feel extremely embarrassed.
"What's wrong, Ziyi? Is there something troubling you? "
Seeing her embarrassed face, Wen Rourou asked considerately.
"Well, Rourou, Yang Mi and the others came to visit me, I …"
Speaking of this, Song Ziyi felt a little embarrassed. Ding Ning was treating. As a guest, she couldn't overstep her authority and take everyone there. That would make her seem too immature.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Brother-in-law just said on the phone that if your friends come to visit you, bring them along."
Xiaoyao suddenly thought of this, patted her forehead, and said apologetically, "I didn't know that your friend was coming, so I didn't tell you."
"That … you guys make the arrangements tonight. I'll pay the bill."
Song Ziyi was secretly grateful for Ding Ning's thoughtfulness, but she still felt sorry and insisted.
"Alright, if you think you can get rid of this bill, then go ahead."
Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"That's right, Zi Yi. If you think you can buy this deal, then you have the ability."
Wen Rourou also smiled brightly.
"Are you kidding? The Pavilion in the Air is owned by me. It will be strange if Song Ziyi can buy this bill."
Song Ziyi then realized that the Pavilion in the Air was the only long-term reserved box for Ding Ning, which showed Ding Ning's position in the mind of the Goddess of Cooking. If he wanted to treat them, probably no one could buy this bill.
Thinking of this, Song Ziyi could not help but smile bitterly and muttered, "It's really unreasonable. I can't even rush to pay the bill."
"Well, well, no one is short of trifles. Let's go. I haven't eaten anything since the morning, and my stomach has been growling for a long time. Go, go, go …"
Xiaoyao snapped her fingers handsomely and took the lead to walk out.
"Sister Hua, call Sister Yang and ask them to go directly to the Pavilion in the Air … Forget it, I'll call them on the way."
Song Ziyi originally wanted to ask Sister Hua to call Yang Mi and others, but thinking that it was easy to give others a feeling of being arrogant, he temporarily changed his mind and felt that it was more appropriate to make this call himself.
"Zi Yi, although Yang Mi is very popular in the circle and has always had a good relationship with you, she now runs her own studio. You should be careful later. After all, Boss Tian is also here, in case he thinks too much."
Sister Hua followed Song Ziyi and reminded her in a low voice.
The company arranged for her to be Song Ziyi's agent, which was a great thing for her to reach the sky in a single bound, so she considered more than ordinary people.
Song Ziyi's face darkened, and he said calmly, "I know what I'm doing."
However, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Sister Hua was a good person. She was very hardworking and capable. However, she was a little narrow-minded. She was cautious when she did things, and her thinking was much more complicated than ordinary people.
She didn't get along with Jiang Yimeng because Sister Hua's sense of crisis was too strong, and she was always on guard against Jiang Yimeng, which influenced the people around her to be hostile to Jiang Yimeng, causing the relationship between them to become worse and worse.
To be honest, she didn't like intrigue very much, but she was new here, and the company arranged for Sister Hua to be her agent, so she couldn't directly oppose the company's arrangement. Besides, Sister Hua was very attentive to her and had never made any big mistakes, so she was too embarrassed to ask for another agent.
"Bang!"
In a five-star hotel in Ninghai, a tall and handsome young man smashed the red wine glass in his hand on the tea table and broke it. The dark red wine dripped along the tea table on the light gray carpet, forming a dark red stain.
"Bastard, there are so many dangerous scenes. Did I just ask for a raise in salary? The crew dared to fire me directly. If this is spread out, how can I work in the future? Fuck, if you don't let me have an easy time, don't think about having an easy time. Just wait and see. If I can let you shoot the Legend of the Sword and Fairy Companion smoothly, I'm not Wu Jiawen. "
The young man gnashed his teeth and roared, and his handsome face became red and distorted because of anger, looking extremely ferocious.
"Slap!"
A loud slap landed on the young man's face, and a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties glared at him with disappointment.
"Uncle Shan, you … you hit me?"
Wu Jiawen was 26 years old this year. Seven years ago, when he was still a freshman in Yan Ying University, he was chosen by a talent scout and became a contracted actor of Guangyin Media.
It happened that Zheng Yuze, the director of Guangyin Media, was preparing to shoot the youth idol drama Eighteen Years Old. At first sight, he liked his tall, handsome, youthful appearance, which was very consistent with the male lead in the drama. So, regardless of everyone's opposition, he boldly used him as the male lead in the drama.
Perhaps because it was his own character, Wu Jiawen, whose acting skills were not up to par, became an instant hit with the drama and quickly accumulated a large number of fanatical fans, mainly students.
Wu Jiawen was a very ambitious person who had a plan for his life. He was very clear that it was difficult for an actor to become popular with the idol drama in the entertainment industry, so he didn't become complacent because of this. Instead, he declined all the work, completely calmed down his heart, and returned to school, diligently learning acting, and constantly honing his acting skills.
After three years of accumulation and hard work, his acting skills had greatly improved. After three years of silence, he acted as the second male lead in Burning Youth and became popular again with his superb acting skills and good appearance.
His outstanding performance finally attracted the attention of the senior management of Guangyin Media, and they specially hired Wu Boshan, a famous gold medal agent in the industry, to be his agent and fully support this promising rookie in the entertainment industry.
With the help of Wu Boshan's strong connections and keen professional sense, his career as a star was smooth. In just four years, he frequently appeared on TV with the frequency of participating in a large-scale TV drama every year, leaving an indelible impression on the public, and making him quickly rise from a newcomer to the ranks of quasi-A-list actors and become a dark horse in the industry.
In the Shenzhou entertainment industry, the standard for dividing the status of an actor was extremely vague. One was the public influence of the actor, and the other was the annual income of the actor, so as to give the approximate ranking of the actor.
If it was in the past, with Wu Jiawen's status as a quasi-A-list actor, his salary for each episode of a TV drama would be at least 400,000 to 700,000. However, due to the scandal that a female star signed a "Yin Yang Contract" to evade taxes some time ago, the actor's high salary, which was calculated in tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, was exposed for the first time, causing an uproar among the general public. They all accused the actor of having no artistic ethics and taking a high salary, but shooting films and TV dramas that did not deserve the high salary at all, which made everyone feel disgusted.
The relevant departments had issued repeated orders on this issue, but they could not stop it despite repeated prohibitions. This time, they seized the opportunity to increase the control on the high salary of the actor again, causing Wu Jiawen's salary to be as low as 200,000 per episode in The Legend of Sword and Fairy Companion Record.
Young and high-spirited, Wu Jiawen's mentality was no longer as calm as it was in the past. He became eager for quick success and became arrogant day by day. He should have received a salary of at least 500,000 or even more than 600,000 per episode, but now his income was suddenly reduced by more than half. How could he feel balanced?
"Who do you think you are? Wu Jiawen, don't think that you can be cocky just because you're a quasi-A-lister. "
Wu Boshan was strangely angry. He did not expect that Wu Jiawen, who had always been calm and whom he thought highly of, would do such a stupid thing behind his back.
"I … Uncle Shan, I just want to get what I deserve. Is this also wrong?"
Wu Boshan, who had always been amiable and rarely lost his temper, was angry at him for the first time. This made Wu Jiawen feel a little guilty, but he was used to being flattered all these years, so he still stubbornly refused to admit defeat.
"Stupid!"
Wu Boshan shouted angrily. "Don't forget who the director of this movie is, and who the investor is. Don't you know why the company wants you to act in this movie? Have you discussed it with me? Have you discussed it with the company? How dare you go behind my back to find Director Pan and ask for a raise in salary? Firing you is already a light punishment. If they really become popular, banning you would be a piece of cake. How dare you think of revenge? Haha, you've really grown up. Do you really think that you're the king? Let me tell you, you're still far from it. You're just a quasi-A-lister. In the eyes of some people, you're not even a fart … "
Listening to Wu Boshan's rage and stating the pros and cons, Wu Jiawen's tipsy feeling instantly disappeared. His back was already soaked with cold sweat. With a look of fear and trepidation on his face, he said bitterly, "Uncle Shan, I know I'm wrong. Now, I … What should I do …"
Wu Jiawen calmed down, and his intestines were green with regret. Yes, how could he be so stupid? This movie seemed to be just a xianxia drama. At worst, he would not make it. But he had forgotten that the director of this movie was Pan Yigang, not to mention that his strength was enough to easily crush ten investors of Guangyin Media.
Pan Yigang might be very strange to outsiders. Ten people definitely wouldn't know who he was. But in the film and television industry, he was very famous, and everyone knew him.
He was not a TV director, but a movie director, and a director who had won many international awards.
