Chapter 48: Returning the favor, you haven't signed a brokerage company yet!
After a few days of getting along, the relationship between Lin Shu and several actors in the crew gradually became familiar.
Even Zhang Wan, who was not pretentious at first, would occasionally come over to chat with him.
Yuan Zhang, in particular, was most concerned about Lin Shu.
It has been five days since the crew started filming.
But in just a few days, he gained countless knowledge about camera movements.
To put it bluntly, he has never learned less from Lin Shu than from his own master.
But who is his master!
It was one of the first groups to build an action team and one of the pioneers of action movies.
But now, he found the feeling of facing his master in a young man who looked to be only in his twenties.
No matter what kind of lens it is, it can tell a reason.
One can imagine Yuan Zhang's surprise.
Sometimes when listening to Lin Shu's explanation of camera movements, Yuan Zhang had the urge to stop him from continuing.
It's not that he doesn't want to hear it.
What Lin Shu said was extremely beneficial to his own future development.
But the problem is that once he learns these things, the favor he owes will be huge.
In ancient times, this was also a craft of eating.
If you are not a close relative or friend, who would pass on your ability to eat to someone you don’t really want to know?
However, while chatting with Bai Jing yesterday, he got some good news.
Lin Shu has not signed with a brokerage company yet.
After knowing the news, Yuan Zhang felt better.
After calling a few friends, he came to the set early.
Looking at Lin Shu who was taking a nap at the side, he took the initiative to walk up and coughed softly: "Um...Lin Shu! Haha...resting here!"
Lin Shu opened his eyes and looked at Yuan Zhang who was hesitant to speak. He couldn't help but smile and said, "Teacher Yuan, just tell me what you have to say. There are no outsiders here."
Looking around, Yuan Zhang approached Lin Shu.
"I heard... you haven't signed with a brokerage company yet?"
"Indeed not yet!" Lin Shu nodded and did not deny it.
If it weren't for "Xiu Chun Knife", he would still be just a very transparent little actor.
Not to mention signing with an entertainment company, even if you can be spotted by the crew, it is not an easy task.
When Yuan Zhang heard Lin Shu's words, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's good, that's good..."
Seeing him patting his heart, Lin Shu felt a little puzzled.
Even if he didn't sign with a brokerage company, there's no need to do this!
Knowing that Lin Shu had misunderstood what he meant, Yuan Zhang quickly explained:
"That's not what I meant. I heard from Director Bai yesterday that you haven't signed with a brokerage company yet. I happen to still have some connections, so I thought I'd introduce it to you. How about it? Are you interested?"
Hear the words!
Lin Shu put down the script in his hand and sat up straight unconsciously.
Yuan Zhang introduced him to the economic company, and Lin Shu was of course happy.
But he was afraid that the one introduced by Yuan Zhang was not an entertainment company from the Mainland.
This is not to say that mainland entertainment companies are better, but as time goes by, the mainland film and television pie will only get bigger and bigger.
And seniority is very important there.
If the contract is really signed with an entertainment company in Xiangjiang, Lin Shu wants to get ahead, but he doesn't know that he will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Seeing Lin Shu thinking at the side, Yuan Zhang pondered for a moment and continued:
"The company I found for you has a great background. Although it is a newly established company, this company is backed by Penguin!
There is currently a shortage of artists there, especially talented actors like you. If you go there, you should get a good contract.
Moreover, the company is not far from Hengdian, right in the capital city, so it is very convenient to come and go.
Having been with you for so long, you should know who I am, and you won’t suffer any loss anyway.”
Seeing that Lin Shu still had no reaction, Yuan Zhang continued:
"Listen to my advice, it won't work for one person to work alone in the entertainment industry.
You have auditioned for "Xiu Chun Knife" yourself, so you should know it very well.
If it weren't for the original actor's schedule conflict, how could this role fall to you?
But if there is a company, the situation is different. From the beginning of the movie project, a lot of character information will be sent to your mobile phone.
Although it is not possible to directly confirm the role, it can at least qualify for an audition.
Can you understand that?"
In fact, Lin Shu understood what Yuan Zhang said. Why didn't he know the benefits of entertainment companies?
He just didn't come back to his senses for a while because he heard that the entertainment company recommended by Yuan Zhang was from the mainland.
"Teacher Yuan, what is the name of the company you just mentioned? Is it a mainland company?" Lin Shu asked softly.
"The name of the company is Cross-Era, so of course..." At this point, Yuan Zhang was suddenly stunned for a moment, and after carefully recalling Lin Shu's words, he finally figured out why Lin Shu was so entangled before.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he pointed at Lin Shu and said angrily:
"You boy...
Although I came from the film and television industry there, I also know in my heart that the golden age of movies belonging to that generation has passed, otherwise I would not come to the mainland to develop.
Besides, there are only so few resources over there. It is almost impossible for you to share the cake with those top movie stars.
In the past few days, I have learned a lot about lenses from you..."
Seeing that Lin Shu was about to open his mouth, Yuan Zhang quickly stopped him:
"Don't rush to interrupt me.
You talk about communication, but I still don’t know what you are thinking in your heart?
If people respect me one foot, I respect others one foot.
I don't like to owe others favors, so I found this company only after contacting my master.
In short, there is absolutely no harm in joining this entertainment company for you, so think about it carefully!"
Speaking of this, Lin Shu had nothing to hesitate:
"Nah, after I finish filming this movie, I will try out at that entertainment company. But if they don't want me then, then I will look for you!"
Hearing Lin Shu agree, Yuan Zhang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and laughed:
"That won't happen. Even if you don't give me face, you still have to give face to my master.
Besides, your acting skills are not bad. I believe he will be very happy to ask Director Bai to bring you a short sample of the shooting.
However, the specific level of the contract still needs to be assessed, but I think it should not be a big problem for you to get a contract from a third-tier artist."
Thinking of Yuan Zhang's master Chen Hua, Lin Shu also nodded inwardly.
Chen Hua!
The once famous action martial arts star became popular almost throughout Asia.
With such a senior person guaranteeing me, there really will be no problem.
However, what kind of contract you can get is probably related to your own ability.
So what if we give a third-tier star treatment?
