Chapter 88: Join the group 'The Legend of the Demon Cat'!

This time I received "Legend of the Demon Cat" because of the company's resources.

According to the contract signed by a third-tier artist, Lin Shu received only 40%, which was not as much money as the previous film.

However, this cannot be compared purely with money.

Although the money is a little less, Lin Shu's quotation in the circle has also increased accordingly.

Chen Kaige is indeed very famous in the industry, but he cannot just pay high salaries to actors.

On the contrary, the more famous the director, the actor's salary may be lower.

It's not that the director deliberately lowers the price, but that some actors do not hesitate to star in movies by famous directors for zero pay.

Lin Shu only played a small supporting role in "Legend of the Demon Cat", but still received a salary of one million.

If I collaborate with other directors in the future, my salary won't be much lower.

In the following days, Lin Shu did not go to the company.

For artists who are "across generations", there is no explicit rule that they must go when they don't have a job.

In Lin Shu's understanding, if there is no explicit regulation, it means there is no need to go.

What's more, no one has invited him to attend events so far. If he goes to the company, he will have a whole day of entertainment, so he might as well rest at home.

More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and December 9th arrived.

According to the terms of the contract, Lin Shu will rush to the set tomorrow.

In order not to be in too much of a hurry, he decided to go there early.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, he and Guo Ke got on the plane to Xiangyang.

At this time, in the crew of "The Legend of the Demon Cat", a middle-aged actor who always had a smile on his face was resting on a chair.

"Lin Shu is coming over tomorrow. I don't know why Mr. Cao cares so much about this young man."

"There is absolutely no reason for an actor who came from an extra group of actors!"

The actor muttering to himself on the chair is Tian Yu, an artist from Xinlidu, who also plays Gao Lishi in "The Legend of the Demon Cat".

But before he came to the crew to film, Cao Yi told him something and asked him to build a good relationship with Lin Shu on the crew.

Cao Yi didn't say the specific situation, but Tian Yu guessed that he might want him to test Lin Shu to see if he had the potential to become popular.

But in the past two days, he asked his friends in the industry to help inquire, and he heard that Lin Shu was just an extra before.

This made him a little confused.

As an extra from Hengdian, is there anything worth noting?

Even if he doesn’t understand, Tian Yu is still prepared to have a chance to chat with Lin Shu, to ensure that he will be the second baby Wang.

"Teacher Tian, ​​get ready for filming!"

Hearing the shouts of the staff on the side, Tian Yu patted his butt and stood up with a smile.

When he put on an official uniform and appeared on the set again, his aura was completely different from before.

More than ten minutes later!

Chen Kaige, who was sitting in front of the monitor, finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Before, he was worried whether there would be any problems with Tian Yu's acting skills.

Now it seems that he was a little too worried. Cao Yi was quite reliable in his choice of actors.

Think about it too.

As the largest investor in "Legend of the Demon Cat", it is impossible for Cao Yi to be so stupid as to let the company's artists look bad, thus causing the quality of the movie to decline.

After all, the ultimate goal of investing in movies is to make money.

In the next few hours, the crew filmed step by step.

On the other hand, Lin Shu called the crew after arriving in Xiangyang.

Just sitting in the car sent by the crew, he met a very unexpected person.

"Sister Chen, why are you here!"

The Sister Chen that Lin Shu refers to is not Chen Manni, but Chen Hong, the producer of "The Legend of the Demon Cat".

Generally speaking, unless the relationship is very good, it is impossible for the producer to come to pick you up in person, and at most he will send an assistant.

But until now, Lin Shu had only met Chen Hong once, so naturally she wasn't very familiar with him.

"I heard from the assistant that you were coming over. I also want to buy something, so I stopped by to pick you up."

Lin Shu obviously didn't believe Chen Hong's words, but he didn't take the initiative to expose them.

Before Chen Hong's purpose is clear, the best thing to do is say nothing.

"Sorry for your trouble!"

"Due to filming these days, Lao Chen's temper has not been very good, so I just came out to let some air." Chen Hong said with a smile.

Seeing Lin Shu's expression of confusion, she continued to explain: "You also know that some actors can refuse even if they want to, so..."

"I understand!!" Lin Shu nodded, expressing understanding.

Although Chen Kaige is one of the few great directors in China, there are some things that he cannot do just as he wants.

But compared with ordinary directors, he already has many more choices.

Speechless all the way!

After Chen Hong sent Lin Shu to her destination, she returned to the crew again.

"Have you received Lin Shu?" Chen Kaige put down the script in his hand and said calmly.

"It has been sent to the hotel. He said he would come over tomorrow to film."

Chen Kaige nodded slightly, then seemed to think of something, and then started to say: "By the way, have you told him about that?"

"How can we talk about business as soon as we come here? He has been on the set for a long time. I will talk to him again when I have the opportunity." Chen Hong rolled his eyes at him angrily.

"Yes, but I really don't understand how this matter came to light. Can't he go to Lin Shu directly? If not, Tian Yu can be the middleman!"

After complaining for a few words, Chen Kaige's tone became calm and he continued: "Tell me, why does he want to poach Lin Shu? Isn't Liu Hua better?"

Chen Hong thought for a while: "Tian Yu and Lin Shu don't know each other now, so there must be someone familiar to bridge the gap between them!

As for why Lin Shu was poached, maybe it was just to make him feel "across the ages". I'm not sure."

"Not necessarily, what he does is not that simple, but it has nothing to do with us. How to discuss it at that time is their business.

To be honest, if I didn’t have many resources here, I would have wanted to recruit Lin Shu to our company.”

"Don't think about it, the "cross-era" guy won't let Lin Shu go, and besides, we can't give him the conditions to make his heart flutter."

Although Chen Hong's words were very rude, Chen Kaige did not get angry at all, but nodded in approval.

"Indeed, there is no comparison with them in terms of resources!"
Chapter completed!
