Chapter four hundred and forty seventh

Zhang Jiayi and Lin Zixuan are people of about the same age. They had no choice when they graduated. The state provided the distribution and had to return to their original residence.

He is from Shaanxi Province, so he was naturally assigned to go back and was able to enter Chang'an Film Studio, which is considered a professional counterpart.

Of course, he can also choose to stay in the capital, which is equivalent to a Beijing drift without a unit.

In the early 1990s, Beijing drift and blind relocation were the same concept. They lived in rental houses and had no fixed place to live, and were often inspected by the police.

This is why Zhang Guoli came to Beijing to find a unit to appoint. Without a unit, he would be an unemployed vagrant.

In that era, household registration sometimes determined a person's future.

Changan Film Studio is one of the eight major production bases in the country. It was once prosperous, but in the face of the market economy, like other film studios in China, it was in trouble.

It would be nice to be able to make more than a dozen movies every year, so these movies are naturally not the turn of Zhang Jiayi.

He also has to go out and find it himself. If he can't act in a movie, then the TV series is OK. He doesn't pick on the show, as long as there is a show, he can do it.

During the seven years he spent at Changan Film Studio, he only had two movies that he really played the leading role, the others were supporting roles and supporting roles.

But the victory lies in stability. There is a monthly salary to get, which is the state of being unable to eat enough and not starve to death.

Zhang Jiayi thought about going out to make a try. Among his classmates, there were some people who were good at making a fortune in Beijing. He called him to go over and said that the film and television industry in Beijing was very popular and there would be filming when he came.

Maybe I can't play the protagonist, but even the supporting roles earn a good income. The actors' pay has increased rapidly, so everyone has caught up with the good times.

Whenever he heard these words, his heart felt hot.

Being able to make money is one aspect, the key is to have a show to shoot, so you won’t be as idle as you are now and feel empty.

When he watched TV series, he always wondered how others acted and how they wanted to act. Especially when he saw exciting places, he felt itchy and wanted to act it once before he could enjoy it.

Unfortunately, he has never found a chance to play.

Sometimes, he doubts whether he is arrogant or not, otherwise why wouldn't the director fall in love with him?

Changan Film Studio has many well-known directors. Every time a film starts filming in the factory, he will audition, but he can't get the main role, and there is a problem with qualifications.

There are so many actors in the factory waiting to film. In terms of seniority, young actors naturally have to stand aside.

Some directors also told Zhang Jiayi that you are still young, so you should practice more, don’t care about the size of the character, and play every role well.

He understands these principles. Some old artists play supporting roles all their lives and still create classic images, which are well-known to the audience.

But he is still a young man under 30 years old. It is impossible for him to be calm and calm. He even worried that if he doesn't go out now, he may not have the courage to go out in the future.

A plain life can best devour a person's will, and this seven-year career as a supporting actor has had a significant impact on him.

Zhang Jiayi doesn't want to rely on those classmates, he wants face.

When we graduated, we were all full of energy and imagined that we would make a name for ourselves and win prizes.

Reality is often cruel. Seven years have passed and he has not won a single award. Instead, Changan Film Studio sent him a certificate of award for a model actor to encourage him.

He originally wanted to play a role that was outstanding and then go to Beijing to develop.

With a representative work, you can find a drama to shoot in the capital. You will not be treated as a pure newcomer and start a little higher.

He made a movie last year and played the protagonist, but unfortunately he has never been released in the theater.

This is the current situation of domestic films.

Every year, nearly half of the films cannot be released and can only be placed in the warehouse. These films are called warehouse-pressing films, and some of them will not appear in theaters until two years later.

The timely release of Good Dream Company's movies is on the one hand because they have established a good relationship with Huaying Company, and on the other hand, Huaying Company feels it is profitable, so they will actively promote it.

They are not interested in movies that you can tell at a glance that there is no box office.

Zhang Jiayi looked at the phone number in his hand and heard that it was a film company called Haomeng.

He reads entertainment news and knows that Haomeng Company is the best private film and television company in recent years.

However, there are too many film and television companies now. I just heard a few words on the phone. Besides, how could someone find such a big company?

Zhang Jiayi made a call with a try.

The person who answered the phone had a good attitude and was an employee of Haomeng Company. He wanted Zhang Jiayi to come to Beijing to audition for a drama.

"How did you find me?" Zhang Jiayi couldn't help asking in the end.

"I don't know this. I'm only responsible. Don't worry, our company has a certain reputation in the industry and we will reimburse your round-trip fare." The other end of the phone responded in a formulaic response.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jiayi started to think about it.

Is it because of an old classmate helping, or a director who occasionally watches the role of a supporting role he plays, no one will have a sudden idea and just call him to audition.

No matter what, this is an opportunity. The film and television dramas filmed by Haomeng Company have guaranteed quality and should not cheat people.

Regardless of whether this audition can be successful or not, he wants to take advantage of his energy to go out and try it out.

At this time, Zhang Jiayi no longer had the fantasy of the future when he was in college, and only cherished any opportunity to film.

He came to the capital after seven years of separation.

With Lin Zixuan's social circle in the Beijing entertainment industry, it is not difficult to find out about an actor who graduated from the Beijing Film Academy and is still in the circle.

If he had just entered the film and television industry, he wanted to find an actor, but someone might not have to pay attention to him.

If he is an unknown actor acting, he may be questioned by others. Why should you be optimistic about this actor?

There are not many people who question Lin Zixuan now. Most of the time, everyone accepts it silently and then witnesses that this actor is made famous by Lin Zixuan. This is habit becoming natural.

In fact, Lin Zixuan is not sure about his choice, and sometimes he needs a little risk.

For example, this is the case when choosing Yan Ni.

Fortunately, the script of "The Hidden" is well-written and is a good drama. As long as Yan Ni performs normally, this is the play caption.

This time, choosing Zhang Jiayi is also a risky one.

If Zhang Jiayi was asked to play the male lead in "Borrow", he would have to carry the drama, that is, people would have to carry the drama.

After all, you are the male lead and the audience is watching your performance. You cannot perform normally, you must perform beyond your level.

Lin Zixuan was worried that Zhang Jiayi would be too young at this time and could not bear this drama, but he had to try it out before he knew whether it could be done. He was willing to let Zhang Jiayi try it out.

This is why he asked employee Zhang Jiayi.
