Guan Chen wants to take a vacation, and it has nothing to do with relaxing and being lazy.

It's just because Zhang Jingsheng once told him that experientialists like him have an almost hypnotic performance style. It's impossible to get rid of emotions immediately after being fully immersed in it, so you need to rest.

Zhang Jingsheng's advice to Guan Chen is to spend four months of the year preparing for the role, four months for filming, and the remaining four months to live a good life, break away from the role, accumulate insights, and settle yourself.

Guan Chen doesn't quite understand. Every time he finishes filming, he is full of energy, gains a lot of strength from the role, and can't wait to look forward to life. He doesn't feel that he is hypnotized at all, but Zhang Jingsheng is a very powerful actor after all.

, and he is also an honorary professor of the Academy of Art, an intellectual and a cultural person. Guan Chen cannot regard Zhang Jingsheng's words as nonsense.

Leaving the role is put aside for the time being, but it is indeed necessary to accumulate insights and accumulate oneself.

Although he is called a genius actor by many, Guan Chen knows his abilities best and understands that his acting skills are mainly limited by his knowledge level. Just as people cannot make money outside of knowledge, he cannot act well in knowledge.

For example, Guan Chen had a hard time reading the literary film script that Holly gave him before. All he could think about was [Why is this character like this? Is he sick?], [He is in this movie]

What on earth is Mom talking about?], [Is Holly sick?]. Afterwards, Holly came several times to ask how the writing was, but Guan Chen could only politely say that he didn’t understand.

Therefore, it is better to read more books, do more good deeds, and observe life more.

However, the senior brother created a new company at this time, which disrupted Guan Chen's plan.

Although "Black Dragon 2" has just been released, it has received a strong response. The box office growth and word-of-mouth spread have far exceeded expectations. The small studio production company behind the film did not wait for the film to be released and wanted to gather the original cast and start the project.

Preparing to develop the third part.

As one of the scheduled starring roles and a martial arts instructor, Guan Chen also has a new title of co-producer this time.

This means his rest time is shortened.

But Guan Chen was not unhappy at all.

"Is it too early to become a producer?" Zhang Jingsheng asked on the phone, with a hint of concern in his tone.

Zhang Jingsheng didn't know if asking this would make Guan Chen unhappy, but he hesitated for a few seconds before asking. Because in his opinion, Guan Chen has an innocent heart in a sense. As a pure actor, in the future,

He can go a long way, and any distraction is a waste of his talent.

Zhang Jingsheng has been a producer and knows best about the responsibilities of a producer. From determining the theme of the script to promoting the release, he needs to constantly keep an eye on the progress of the project and follow up halfway.

As an actor, dealing with all kinds of people will inevitably lead to distractions.

However, Guan Chen said: "It doesn't matter."

He said: "At least this role will not distract me. As a producer, I am actually experiencing the role."

"Experience the role?" Zhang Jingsheng was confused.

"Being a producer and forming a gang is responsible for the livelihood of dozens or hundreds of people; paying your subordinates on time; identifying who is loyal, who has disloyal intentions, and who is fishing in troubled waters; talking to people and talking to ghosts... This is not

Is it the same thing as what a gangster boss is doing?" Guan Chen said with a smile that this kind of job is perfect for him to understand the role.

Why he was abandoned by his boss is a question that Guan Chen can't let go of no matter what.

He originally thought he would never be able to figure it out, but "Black Dragon 3" gave him a chance to find the answer.

Guan Chen attempts to retrieve memories with the tentacles of performance, identify, understand and resonate with them in the performance, and finally reach the truth in his imagination.

"Boss Chen" in "Black Dragon 3" is an explanation given by Guan Chen to himself.

It is impossible for Guan Chen to experience the role by being the boss of the club. Fortunately, he has a position as a producer, and the nature of the work is similar.

"Experience the role... Hey, if you say it this way, it's quite reasonable." Zhang Jingsheng was convinced by Guan Chen's reasons.

Only then did the two people get to the main topic of today's phone call.

"Do you have the script?" Zhang Jingsheng asked.

Guan Chen said that the first draft is already available, but after "Black 2" is released, a summary meeting may be held to adjust the script for the third part based on the film's problems and audience feedback.

After Zhang Jingsheng heard the outline of the script, he decided, "Okay, I will vote for this movie."

"You haven't read the script yet!" Guan Chen was very puzzled. The 60-page PPT he specially asked the garbage boy to make last night has not been put to use yet!

"Investment, some invest in projects, some invest in people." Zhang Jingsheng said that he had also watched the entire interview with the crew of "Black Dragon 2". After the news was posted online, many people in the industry did not believe it and thought it was a kind of

It’s a hype stunt, but Zhang Jingsheng has worked with Guan Chen for a while and is very aware of Guan Chen’s ability to penetrate the crew. He said: “As long as 80% of what is said in the interview is true, then this project will not lose money.”

Guan Chen is very cautious, saying that there is still a possibility of losing money, because the movie may be too "realistic" and too "negative energy", and it may be stuck at the review level.

Zhang Jingsheng laughed loudly, thinking that Guan Chen was very humorous and pretended to be a foreign guest.

"By the way, what's the name of your production company?" Zhang Jingsheng asked.

“Hsinchu.”

This name was given by my elder brother.

In the [Fight to Feed War/Wool from Sheep 8.0] plan, Guan Chen actually provided several names for the new company for the senior brother to choose one from. Even the trademark was drawn by a garbage boy.

For example, [Cliff] means it is not too late to rein in the horse at the cliff. The trademark is a simple drawing of a horse, squatting like a dog, braking like in a cartoon, with smoke billowing behind its butt;

Another example is [furnace light], which symbolizes the wish to rebuild the furnace. The trademark is not a cauldron, but a building made of circles of iron caltrops that looks like a prison;

Another example is [Shawshank], which is convenient for completing self-redemption. The trademark is a person opening his arms in the rain;

Others include [Glorious Labor], [Volunteer Affairs]...

In the end, none of them were used.

The senior brother said that each of these names was a good name. He really couldn't decide which one to use, so in the end he had to think of one himself and said, let's call it "Hsinchu".

Taken from "Hsinchu" by Zheng Banqiao, there is a sentence in it: "Hsinchu is higher than the old bamboo branches, all because of the support of old trunks."

Guan Chen has been reading ancient poems a lot in recent months and immediately started to appreciate them all.

What these two lines of poetry say is that Hsinchu is greener than blue and is better than blue, and the growth of Hsinchu depends on the active support of the old branches. The old and new generations enjoy themselves happily, which has a good meaning. It fully embodies the old bamboos headed by Qian Liangyi

, recognized the form clearly, gave up the illusion, determined the position, and prepared to provide logistics and support to the Hsinchu people represented by Guan Chen. Moreover, bamboo has very good quality since ancient times. The senior brother uses bamboo to borrow objects to metaphor people.

Praise him for being as tenacious as bamboo, upright, and insisting on himself...

Guan Chen immediately agreed to use this name for the new company.

Although the names he chose were not used, at least they could be used in the future. They were much better than those named by third senior brother Liu Lihao, which looked like a bathing city or a night club.

"Bamboo has beautiful meanings and rich symbols, and both giant pandas and red pandas like to eat it." Guan Chen was very proud, and he didn't know why he was so proud.

Zhang Jingsheng asked where the new company was opened. He hadn't sent an opening gift yet.

Guan Chen: "...I haven't decided on a location yet."

Zhang Jingsheng asked again how many people there are in the production company currently.

Guan Chen: "...one, two, three...currently there are only five and a half."

"What's wrong...what's going on with this half?" Zhang Jingsheng complained.

Guan Chen switched his cell phone from his left hand to his right hand, and turned to look at the trashy boy sitting in front of the computer, struggling to modify the PPT.

"This half means to prepare cadres." Guan Chen has high hopes for the garbage boy.

These books are in Guan Chen's house. The garbage boy sometimes comes over to clean the house and borrows a few books by the way.

The rubbish boy doesn't care about reading literature. He said that he can't understand the human feelings and sophistication in the books. Now he can only understand the shallowest layer of the story. When he grows up, he can understand another deeper feeling.

, so there is no need to waste time at his current age. However, it is different when reading books on psychology, social sciences and economics. Those laws exist objectively. Once you understand them, they will be useful for the next five or ten years.

Guan Chen was speechless and had no choice but to silently decide on the future of this [Bamboo Forest Boy] and prepare to train him as an assistant.

After hanging up the phone with Zhang Jingsheng, Guan Chen said to the rubbish boy who was reading: "Study hard. The position of general manager of the new company is reserved for you."

The rubbish boy was confused: "Isn't that the fat money manager?"

Guan Chen said: "Of course not!"

40% of the new company's shares belong to Guan Chen and 60% to Senior Brother. Qian Liangyi has no share at all.

Although Qian Liangyi had already said with a roll of his eyes that he would not join the new company even if he were killed. But Guan Chen knew that Qian Liangyi was using arrogance to cover up his grief.

Guan Chen snorted coldly, showing no mercy at all.

Holly, who is from the United States, mentioned in a chat with Guan Chen very early on that part of the reason why film and television in the United States cannot develop and produces piles of garbage is that from the production company to the studio to distribution,

Everyone is fighting among themselves from top to bottom, and everyone only cares about their own future and position. No one cares about the quality of the work. If we wait until the fighting is over before we start working on the project, things will already be out of shape.

Guan Chen took this as a warning.

The senior brother handed the new company to Guan Chen and asked him to build a team. Guan Chen must first place his confidants.

Sorry, Manager Qian, political struggle is so cruel.

After Guan Chen laughed sinisterly at the phone for a while, he stood up and asked the trash boy while changing his coat: "I'm going out now. Do you want to eat lunch by yourself or go out with me to eat?"

The rubbish boy turned a page of the book and said he would eat it when he went home.

"Where are you going?" the trash boy asked him.
Chapter completed!
