The other end of the phone said coldly: "Family 9 beds, your mother's condition is serious again. When will I come and pay the arrears of treatment fees?"
Meng Jiao held the phone tightly, and her eyes turned red when she turned around.
I wanted to cry, but I tried my best to hold it back.
Since that disaster, my mother has moved directly into the custody room.
Treatment fees, sanitation fees, medicine fees, and various expenses are combined, and it is nearly 1,000 yuan a day.
In a month, it’s more than 30,000 yuan!
She never took this little money seriously before.
But now, astronomical numbers are average!
Meng Jiao is not worried about herself. Even if she really doesn’t start work, she will be harder, tired, and save money, and will always find a job that can support herself.
But what should my mother do?
...
There are many people outside the audition room of the crew of "The God of Heaven".
The actors lined up in a long queue, both men, women, young and old. Some wanted to become famous overnight, while others wanted to get rich overnight.
Meng Jiao was mixed in the crowd. Her idea was very simple, just to guarantee 30,000 yuan per month.
Not enough, she will think of other ways.
Or if you look for an ordinary part-time job, you can always make up for the gaps.
So before coming, Meng Jiao made up her mind.
She is willing to take on any kind of scene, play supporting roles, stand-in-the-scenes, and fight scenes. In short, she must join the group this time.
Because she didn't start work, she would only be the way to sell her body.
When she thought of that situation, Meng Jiao subconsciously clenched her collar and her lips gradually became pale.
Soon, a staff member came to collect the information form.
Seeing Meng Jiao’s information, the man was stunned for a moment, "Oh, the professional student of Hua Opera, you have produced many stars in that class."
Meng Jiao smiled awkwardly, "I'm in trouble."
That person was not surprised. The entertainment industry was so cruel. Not everyone could stand out with the same starting point.
Some graduates of the same class have become first-line celebrities, while others are still playing supporting roles, which is normal.
But after all, I graduated from Chinese dramas. Anyone who is like this is either extremely lucky and has never become famous after acting in several dramas.
Either they have extremely poor popularity, or they wouldn't come to compete for jobs with extras.
Without asking more, he put Meng Jiao’s information at the top, "Okay, I’ll recommend it to you and try to give you a chance."
Meng Jiao sincerely said gratefully: "Thank you, thank you!"
...
Zhao Dong also came to the crew.
Although he stood far away, he still saw Meng Jiao standing out in the crowd at a glance.
Deliberately avoiding it, he found a crew member of the crew, "Hello, I want to see Director Sun!"
The man looked up and down at Zhao Dong and vaguely guessed the other party's purpose.
Seeing and wearing clothes should not be extras, most of them are here to make connections.
Now the crew is setting the cast for the actors, and there are countless relationships coming to the door every day, and everyone wants to see Director Sun.
But Director Sun had already spoken, no matter who it was, he would not see him!
He ignored it and waved his hand and said, "Director Sun is busy, and I can't see you."
Zhao Dong grabbed the person, "Then tell me where Director Sun is, and I'll go find him by myself."
The man curled his lips, "Who do you think you are? Director Sun also met you at the right time?"
Zhao Dong took out a red envelope and stuffed it in, "In this way, you tell Director Sun that my name is Zhao Dong, I'm in trouble."
The man hesitated for a moment, "I can bring you the words for you, but I can't guarantee that Director Sun will not see you!"
Zhao Dong nodded, "It's okay, you just need to mention my name."
The man then collected the red envelope and turned into the room.
...
At the same time, Director Sun was furious.
Actors are recommended by various channels and various connections, and many of them cannot be offended.
But no matter how good your temper is, there will always be times when you explode.
He threw the script and said, "What kind of shit are these guys?"
Someone handed the water cup, "Director Sun, please calm down. The one just now was recommended by Director Wang."
Director Sun snorted coldly, "No matter if I recommend it, if I want to join my group, I must have real materials, otherwise I will not give anyone any face!"
It’s not his fault that he was angry. He just auditioned for several roles and was very dissatisfied.
Especially some young and cross-border artists, their acting skills are not very good. They rely on their reputation, but the conditions offered are not low.
For example, the titi who was auditioning just now has become popular recently, but she has no acting skills, but she has a major role in the play.
When I was auditioning just now, I was so embarrassed that I dared to come to him for an audition at this level?
When I was getting angry, people around me wanted to speak but stopped.
Director Sun took a sip of water and pressed his anger and said, "If you have something to say, don't hesitate."
The man thought carefully: "Director Sun, someone outside wants to see you, saying that he is called Zhao Dong."
Director Sun threw the cup, "No, no!"
"I just said that no one will see you!"
"If you don't spend your time improving your acting skills, you will know that you think about these evil ways!"
Director Sun didn't ask in detail, and he didn't have to think about it, so he must have come to get in touch again.
He doesn't know how many people he has to see every day, and no matter how patient he is, he can't withstand such torture.
For example, yesterday, a rich second-generation parent actually wanted to invest five million in the play just to realize her dream of becoming a star for her daughter.
In the current film and television industry, all kinds of shoddy films are rampant, which not only ruins the atmosphere, but also destroys the industry ecology.
This trick works in other groups, but it won’t work in him!
The man was scolded and didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore. As soon as he walked to the door, he was suddenly stopped, "Wait a minute, what did you say he was called?"
The man thought for a while, "Zhao Dong?"
Director Sun called his assistant, "Is the person Mr. Hua talking about in the morning?"
The assistant looked at the record and said, "That's right."
Director Sun rubbed his forehead, "You let him in."
I was upset, but I couldn't do it.
This is how this society is. Although some people have set the rules of the game, there are always some people who can bypass the rules.
If it were someone else, he would definitely not give this face, but there was nothing he could do. The one who opened his mouth was Mr. Hua, who was also the main investor of the crew.
During the early preparations, major companies were not optimistic about his drama.
He held the script and found several investors one after another. When he was about to give up, it was the fourth young master Hua who supported it and helped to promote it vigorously, which made the crew today.
With a 1.2 billion investment of 10 billion, Huake invested. Even if he repays his favor, he must meet this person!
Soon, the staff brought Zhao Dong in.
Director Sun looked up and down and asked laughingly, "Do you want to act too?"
His nose was almost pissed. Whether a director like him was an actor or whether he could perform a good show could be seen at a glance.
For example, the person in front of him has a good image and is very distinctive.
But, how to say, there is no drama bone.
And he has no stage experience at first glance and is not suitable for acting.
He barely appears on camera, and he is also the kind of young man who looks like himself in everything.
People like this want to audition?
Is the threshold for the entertainment industry so low now?
