Chapter 778: Lao Li’s Cannon, Second Brother’s Armor, and the Forever Inn

While the sun was still napping, Hengdian was already bustling with activity.

With those familiar excuses, every time a minibus comes, it can cause a crowd of people.

Then a familiar scene appeared.

"There are twenty men! Forget it if you don't have a certificate. Go ahead and turn right to get a certificate!"

"Five girls, no one who is too fat!"

"Is there anyone over 1.8 meters tall?"

"You, the short one, that's you. If you're not over 18, that's all you need. Get in the car."

"Come up if you are willing to shave your head..."

As soon as the minibus stopped, the leaders of the extras acted like conductors. They didn't get out of the bus, they just hung on the door and selected people at will.

Then each group performer rushed to report their own advantages.

He is good at speaking lyrics, martial arts, and singing, and claims to have studied acting...

It's just that these advantages are useless in the eyes of most group leaders.

After all, it’s not just a few years ago now. Hengdian was just built a few years ago. There must be a lot of speeches coming to make a living. But in fact, according to today’s standards, that’s really a young person. So if you have some talent, the probability of getting ahead is very high.

big.

But it’s different now. Hengdian has been expanded a lot and can accommodate more crews at the same time. But at the same time, there are several times more Hengdian than a few years ago. There are more than 50,000 certified actors alone.

.

There are so many people, isn’t it easy to find someone with some talent?

Therefore, unless the crew has special needs, the group leader will basically look for people with his eyes closed. Anyway, he will leave as soon as the seats are full, so the efficiency is very high.

Of course, this is definitely not a good thing for the extras. With such involution, the chances of getting ahead are even slimmer, so many people gave up on their dreams, or left, or changed careers and stayed in Hengdian, which made Hengdian even more

At the same time of prosperity, the word "horizontal drift" has become more cruel.

Not easy!

At this time, Sun Qiang, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the minibus, felt very emotional.

Today is his 31st day in Xingchenhai. According to the rules of Xingchenhai, all new employees, unless they are technical workers, must first intern at the lowest level for one month.

So according to the rules, today is a rare rest day for him after finishing his internship, but Sun Qiang still came to the set and found old employees with whom he was close to get the opportunity to work together. He also missed himself half a month ago.

During the month of internship, Sun Qiang worked as an extra for half a month, playing 18 roles. He didn't get any roles with lines, and earned a total of 720 yuan.

This score ranked fourth among his interns in this period, which is quite outstanding. Some people disliked this kind of work as it was not in line with their status, so they just played for a day. Sun Qiang knew that that person was basically an intern.

No more stars and sea.

Half a month later, due to his outstanding performance, Sun Qiang and four others were given the opportunity to join the Stars and Sea crew as interns in the next half month. They passed the first round of assessment perfectly. I don’t know where the rest were assigned.

But it is certainly not as important as its own crew.

Sun Qiang was very grateful for the sweat he had put in back then. Thinking of the days when he would wake up early every day and fight for work at night, although his heart was still full of enthusiasm, he would definitely not be willing to do it again.

So in the next half month, Sun Qiang worked harder and harder to do whatever he could on the set. Not only that, he also knew how to use all the conditions around him to learn the most information in the shortest time.

He knew that after the one-month internship, the company would definitely have a round of tests, and this would also determine his future position in the company.

Strictly speaking, this kind of life is very tiring, all for competition, all for sharpening the scalp, so he often has to endure being scolded to death, but Sun Qiang feels that it is worth it.

At least through this one-month internship, he learned that this industry is not as easy as he imagined, and it can even be said to be cruel!

If you want to get ahead in this industry, you have to work harder than you can imagine, whether in front of or behind the scenes.

Of course, this does not mean that everyone needs to work hard. For example, there are some who are born to eat this kind of rice, or actors who are praised, and people who are on the set and join the crew through connections.

Relying on their connections, body, appearance or money, they can easily become famous in this industry and make more money.

Sun Qiang, like everyone else, is jealous but also full of envy.

But he also knew that this was not in line with the rules of the sea of ​​stars.

What are the rules of Starry Sea?

Sun Qiang remembered the employee instructions that the team leader asked them to remember when they first joined the company.

"First, don't waste food; second, don't take yourself seriously; third, don't take yourself seriously."

A very concise but strange lesson.

However, the team leader did not explain anything and just asked everyone to figure it out on their own within this month.

And now Sun Qiang has probably realized something.

If I just want to fully understand it, I guess I have to work on it for a few more years.

But before that, the most important thing at the moment is to successfully enter the sea of ​​stars first.

Although Sun Qiang still feels nervous about this, he is also confident...

At 8 o'clock the next morning, Sun Qiang arrived at Xingchenhai one hour early as required by the notice. When he arrived, three of his current interns had already arrived.

Sun Qiang was a little annoyed. He felt that he was still a little late and was actually overtaken by these three guys.

"Qiangzi, have you had breakfast together?"

At this time, a guy named Ge Hui among the interns saw Sun Qiang and came up to say hello.

This guy has a very familiar personality. He is the most popular among the interns in this period, and he is also the most informed.

Sun Qiang then nodded and agreed: "Okay, I haven't eaten in a big cafeteria for a long time, and I don't dare to go alone."

Ge Hui smiled and said: "Haha, me too. I have been thinking about the big cafeteria this month. It makes me hungry. Let's go and see what's available for breakfast..."

With that said, Ge Hui, who was 1.8 meters tall, hugged Sun Qiang, who was 1.7 meters tall. The two of them entered the cafeteria as brothers. Although the other two interns did not speak, they followed behind.

All interns at Xingchenhai only have two opportunities to eat in the cafeteria, once on their first day here and once now.

In fact, eating in the canteen is not entirely for the food there, but more for watching the celebrities.

Because the artists of Stars and Seas all eat in the cafeteria and rarely take out food, this is especially attractive to interns.

It's a celebrity, and it's private. Who doesn't want to meet him?

Moreover, during the internship, an old employee told me that there was someone in the company who met Jiang Yan in the cafeteria on the first day he entered the company. Then he was brave enough to sit directly opposite Jiang Yan with a plate in his hand.

In the end, the guy was appreciated by Jiang Yan just for this meal, and was given several challenges. Then the guy successfully completed the task, and after the internship ended, he joined the crew of "The Great Doctor Ru Yue".

Before "The Great Doctor Ru Yue" became a hit, this drama was designated by Jiang Yan as the company's No. 1 project. It was the company's highest-priority TV drama project. Old employees had to compete for jobs if they wanted to participate.

The result can be imagined. Everyone knows how popular "The Great Doctor Ru Yue" became, and the intern who joined as a dispatcher is said to be going to Hollywood to assist in the dispatch of Jiang Yan's American blockbuster!

It’s soaring to the sky!

Everyone also fantasized about having such luck, but unfortunately, there was no celebrity in the cafeteria today, let alone Jiang Yan.

"Jiang Yan hasn't been in Hengdian these days, but I heard he will be back in the evening."

After everyone looked around and looked disappointed, Ge Hui started to play his role.

He is indeed a well-informed person!

Sun Qiang and others couldn't help but sigh.

After several people took their food and sat down, Ge Hui continued: "This time, our places will probably be assigned according to the rankings during the internship period. Those with the highest rankings will go to the dramas that are the most valued."

None of us are skilled workers. In the future, we will basically hold management positions in Xingchenhai. So when Ge Hui said this, everyone knew what it meant.

The higher the internship ranking, the higher the level of entry into the project.

This is very reasonable.

It's just that this also makes everyone want to compare.

But I definitely wouldn't say this now.

So the next topic is about which projects are valued.

"It goes without saying that under normal circumstances, the higher the cost, the more attention it will receive."

Ge Hui analyzed them one by one with his fingers, ""The Great Doctor Ru Yue" is a TV series with a cost of 120 million. It doesn't matter whether it is important or not. Of course, it also depends on who stars in it. If Jiang Yan stars, then this project will

The priority is absolutely high!”

"Also look at the subject matter. If it is a new subject, the priority will definitely not be low." At this time, Sun Qiang added, "Time travel dramas, palace fighting dramas, and science fiction. These are all innovative themes that are groundbreaking for domestic entertainment. If we

As soon as I join the company, I can get into a similar project and I’ll be rewarded, but I don’t know if there is anything similar in the new project.”

"This is difficult. Creating a theme is not that easy." Sun Ying, another female intern, said at this time, but after saying this, a look of nymphomaniac appeared on her face and continued, "But who told our boss to be

As for Jiang Yan, he can definitely do it!"

"It's not your turn. With your nymphomaniac behavior, the boss will definitely put you in another project and stabilize it." Gao Lan, the fourth female intern who was somewhat silent, poured cold water on Sun Ying.

, but Sun Ying was not angry at all. Instead, she smiled and pinched Gao Lan in protest. It was obvious that the two had a good relationship.

When it became quiet again, Sun Qiang asked Ge Hui: "Brother Hui, tell me your information."
