Chapter 1141 Advice from Zhang Qingyun, who was once a top player!
Kyoto.
The brokerage company where Chen Jinzhou works.
In the conference room, everyone was discussing extremely intensely.
"Hahaha, in just five days, the box office has already reached 3 billion!" said the director of the artist department, grinning from ear to ear.
Although Chen Jinzhou appeared in the Jiangnan movie this time, he did not ask for a salary, and he acted for free.
But for this movie, the salary is not the most important thing, the most important thing is the performance.
They are not a big company like Lightyear Entertainment, and their qualifications are naturally limited.
Now we are counting on Chen Jinzhou, a veteran actor, to stabilize his position in the industry.
This time "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is a big hit, Chen Jinzhou will definitely win the award, and his company's qualifications in the industry will also increase accordingly. With the impact of this drama, the company can attract a lot of investment!
These are potential improvements!
"How about it? I said your situation is too small. You still don't believe it. Now you all know how powerful Jiangnan is, right?" Chen Jinzhou glanced around the crowd with a smile and teased.
Previously, these people were opposed to him acting in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" for free.
Even when the movie was released, they were still saying that niche movies were useless and that Chen Jinzhou was a waste of time and energy.
Now everyone was slapped in the face by Jiang Nan.
"We are short-sighted..." The agent lowered his head in embarrassment.
Before, he was the one who screamed the loudest.
If Chen Jinzhou hadn't threatened to leave the company, he would not have agreed to the other party acting in this "niche" movie.
But now it seems that he almost ruined the company's investment business worth tens of millions.
Thinking of this, the agent was naturally very embarrassed.
"Ahem... Don't mention the past things anymore. The most important thing next is to cooperate with Xinghui to make "I'm Not the God of Medicine" popular, so that not only our company but also Xinghui can get it
Unimaginable benefits!" The director of the artist department quickly came out to smooth things over.
"No need." Chen Jinzhou waved his hand.
Everyone was stunned.
"Don't you have any idea about the size of our company? Now that Xinghui is cooperating with the government to promote movies, how can you have time to deal with us?" Chen Jinzhou said unceremoniously.
"Well... that's what I said, but we have to show our attitude,"
"That's right, let's do some self-promotion. It would be nice to have a sense of participation..."
"There are not many opportunities like this to benefit the people."
Hearing this, everyone nodded awkwardly.
Indeed, Xinghui has now grown to a scale that can compete with the four major domestic entertainment companies.
Moreover, this time we are cooperating with the government, and it has risen to the level of benefiting the people.
They are a small company and there is simply not enough to see.
…
Kyoto.
A high-end hotel.
An industry reception is being held.
There are many well-known directors in the film and television industry, as well as some actors and actresses.
Everyone communicates on their own, the director chats with the actors and makes an appointment, or the actors go to the director to make an appointment to promote their cooperation.
There are many professional actors here, as well as many popular actors.
What is different from the past is that when big directors choose actors, they do not first consider traffic actors. The market is developing towards acting. For big directors, traffic not only increases the budget, but the audience may not buy it.
This leads to the fact that small and medium-sized films prefer to use traffic, while large-scale films need to weigh traffic and acting skills.
"Zhang Qingyun is here!"
I don’t know who yelled first.
All eyes were directed towards the entrance of the reception.
Zhang Qingyun entered the room wearing a handsome suit and took a glass of red wine from the waiter's tray.
This is the first time he has attended such an industry event since his comeback.
As before, it is still attracting attention.
But one difference is that although the big directors in the past tried to please him, their smiles were very deliberate and they still looked down on him deep down.
Nowadays, the big directors look at him as if they were looking at a naked beauty, and they are all coveting his popularity and acting skills.
"It seems like I have been given a new life." Zhang Qingyun felt extremely happy.
However, he still wore a humble smile and was not as arrogant as before.
Even if some unknown little actors say hello to him, he will respond to them one by one.
Experiencing a trough wiped away Zhang Qingyun's arrogance and made him understand that what can truly gain respect in this industry is his own excellent strength.
"Teacher Zhang, do you have any schedules recently? I have a big production with an investment of 2 billion!"
"Teacher Zhang, this script of mine will definitely become a hit. Are you interested in learning about it?"
"Our team is full of experienced actors with high acting skills. The only one missing is Teacher Zhang. The salary can be raised as much as you like!"
A group of well-known directors in the industry immediately surrounded Zhang Qingyun.
Some invite based on investment scale, and some invite based on sky-high film remuneration.
For a time, all the directors around popular celebrities came to Zhang Qingyun's side.
"I'm sorry, thank you all directors for your support, but I'm not planning to take on any other roles except Teacher Jiang Nan's."
He responded with a smile to everyone.
All the directors could only shake their heads sadly.
Nowadays, in terms of movies, apart from Zhang Yang, Zhang Qingyun is the most popular, and both of them are powerful and have good acting skills. They are the absolute candidates for the protagonist. However, Zhang Qingyun has set his sights on Jiangnan and has no idea about other people's movies.
, it is simply a pity for the directors.
Of course, some people respect you and some people admire you. In the artist industry, envy, jealousy, and hatred are always inevitable.
"Haha, he has refused invitations from so many directors. How can a has-been become such a big name?"
"It's just that I was lucky enough to be chosen by Jiangnan. If I can make a movie about Jiangnan, what will happen to Zhang Qingyun?"
"Yes, is Zhang Qingyun worthy of his current status? Jiangnan's movies can be popular even if they are acted by dogs!"
"Shh... keep your voice down, it won't be good if you are heard later."
"Haha, if you hear it, you can hear it. Can he still block me?"
The group of traffic stars in the distance were discussing in low voices.
Not afraid of being overheard by Zhang Qingyun.
If it were before, Zhang Qingyun might just go berserk and fight with them, but now he has grown up.
"You are right, I became famous again because of Jiangnan, but you can't deny my efforts to hone my acting skills in the drama troupe. I am indeed lucky, but if you were asked to watch "Westward Journey" before it was aired,
, just play the role of the second boss and ask yourself, which of you would agree?"
Everyone was speechless by what he said.
The reason why Zhang Qingyun has always been given roles in the Jiangnan team is because he decided to leave behind the baggage of being an idol and play the role of the second boss. After getting Jiangnan's approval, he will continue to be given roles.
"You are right. My current achievements come from Teacher Jiangnan. So let me ask you, by rejecting invitations from several directors and being ready to act in Teacher Jiangnan's movies at any time, am I trying to be a big star or repaying a favor?"
He was not aggressive, but spoke to the crowd of actors in a very peaceful manner.
Everyone was speechless by what he said, their faces flushed and they didn't know how to answer.
Seeing this, Zhang Qingyun sighed and drank all the red wine in the glass.
"As someone who has been through this, I would like to give you a piece of advice. Traffic can make or break you. If you want to stay in this industry for a long time, the right way is to sharpen your acting skills!"
