Chapter 8 The male lead has someone else
MMS Entertainment is located on Chengxi Road in Gangcheng.
This place is home to several entertainment companies in Hong Kong City. Emperor Entertainment, known as the dream factory of Hong Kong stars, is also here. This company is a diversified listed company covering real estate, hotels, finance, entertainment, movies, etc.
There are several movie kings, and there are also many popular artists similar to those of the middle and young generation.
But this has nothing to do with Chen Jiahui.
His current identity is just a newcomer who has just debuted.
According to memory.
He was also a contracted artist with MMS Company, but after marrying Director Zhou, his rookie contract was bought by Director Zhou for three million.
so.
According to the rules of the game, in addition to being Director Zhou’s husband, he is also Director Zhou’s employee. It’s just that Director Zhou, the boss, needs Chen Jiahui to play the role of her husband. As for using his connections to insert him into other crews to make money for himself,
Director Zhou never thought that this would lead to Chen Jiahui not even having an agent, let alone the necessary assistants for contracted artists.
Riding a battery bike.
Chen Jiahui came to MMS Entertainment. It was around eight o'clock in the morning, and the audition time was at nine o'clock.
"Mr. Chen"
The front desk of MMS Entertainment quickly smiled and said hello when they saw Chen Jiahui.
Although Zhou Yu is only one of the three founders of the company and doesn't care about the company's affairs now, he still has a high status in the company. As his son-in-law, Chen Jiahui, no matter how they talk about this guy behind his back, he has a soft look.
He has a bad face, but no one dares to embarrass him in person.
People who have been in the workplace for so long and don’t even understand this principle would have packed up and left long ago.
No one is a fool.
Especially if you just give a smile or say hello to leave a good impression, you would be a fool not to do it. After the front desk lady said hello, she smiled and said, "Director Jay Chou has already given instructions, let me take you to the audition hall."
"Thanks"
Chen Jiahui politely thanked him.
After explaining a few words to her colleagues, the receptionist led Chen Jiahui to the audition hall and whispered, "I heard that Mr. Han Ping is also interested in this role. He went through the internal audition channel yesterday. Now there are several people outside the audition hall."
All the actors are waiting. It is rumored that the total investment for this movie is 70 million. Whether it is specific will not be confirmed until after the press conference."
"Seventy million!?"
Chen Jiahui was stunned.
Compared with large-scale productions that often cost tens of millions or hundreds of millions, 70 million seems a bit small.
But this movie is a reality-based movie. According to Chen Jiahui's idea, as long as he doesn't hire high-paying first-line artists, it can be done with 30 million, but now it actually costs so much.
For an investment of 70 million, the box office needs to reach 200 million to make a return. This also means that you need to hire an artist with box office appeal. Only in this way can the investment of 70 million be guaranteed. This is also
What Chen Jiahui is worried about is not his acting skills, but now he only lacks works to prove his commercial value.
As for.
His father-in-law said that as long as his acting skills are good, no one can take this role away from him.
Maybe when he said this, he probably thought that Chen Jiahui would only audition for roles such as the second male lead and the third male lead, and didn't think about the lead male role.
For a while.
Chen Jiahui was also a little hesitant, but then he put aside his inappropriate emotions.
Now that it's here.
Then try it.
He has no way to prove his commercial value now, but he can prove his acting skills.
"Are you coming to audition too!?"
At the door of the audition hall, a person saw Chen Jiahui coming and ran over to say hello with a smile.
"Um"
Chen Jiahui nodded.
He knows this person. He debuted earlier than him. He is a friend he met in the last drama. However, he is not very famous. Even if he is auditioning for a relatively well-known and capable actor, he will come on time. Even if he is worried about traffic jams and lack of time,
Before arriving, they would stay in the car and wait. The more famous an actor is, no matter how much he likes a role, he will not wait for the audition to begin as if he were not famous.
Chen Jiahui is famous.
But instead of being famous as an actor, his fame basically comes from his director wife.
There were a lot of people coming to the audition today. When the time came, there was a call from inside. Even as Zhou Yu's son-in-law, Chen Jiahui didn't get much convenience this time. The audition chief inside must have known that he had come to audition, but
There was no statement. The reason was that his wife's movie "Love" that had not been released yet failed, which caused the other two founders of the company to have opinions about it. They were not in a good position to fall out with Chen Jiahui's father-in-law, but since Chen Jiahui, the son-in-law, came to audition
, naturally don’t expect any special care.
The film industry is very realistic.
It’s not just the film industry, in fact it’s very realistic in any industry.
If they can help the company make money, the company can treat them as ancestors.
If not.
Then don't talk about who gives face to whom.
Assuming that Director Zhou's movie makes money for the company, not only will the company invest in her next movie, but Chen Jiahui will also come to audition. Even if his acting skills are not up to standard, as long as he can breathe, it is impossible for the male lead to at least be able to act.
There were two men and three men, but Chen Jiahui didn't care about that.
Why did he marry Director Zhou? If others don’t know, how can he not know it!?
Contract couple.
There is no advantage for him to take advantage of.
"How about it!?"
When the first person to audition came out, many people immediately stood up and asked, "What are you playing!?"
"Hit people"
The man replied and left directly.
When they heard about the beating, the rest of the actors were shocked.
Of course, this is not a real beating, it is just a test of the actors' emotional control when beating people. Some are heartbreaking, and some are full of ferocity.
The audition continued, and some people came out with excited faces, which undoubtedly proved that his audition was successful, even if it was not the protagonist, it was for other roles, while some people came out with disappointed faces.
Most of the people waiting for the audition were gone, and Chen Jiahui's number 36 was finally heard from the audition hall.
He adjusted his thoughts and stepped directly in.
Instead of taking advantage of Director Zhou, Chen Jiahui let the company vent its anger on him and deliberately placed him in last place. Chen Jiahui was not angry either.
Before you become famous, you have to control your temper no matter how big it is.
After becoming famous, even the smallest temper can be magnified infinitely.
The entertainment industry is such a circle full of various interests and temptations.
Who is grandpa.
Who is the grandson?
Everything depends on your own ability, and this ability can only be proven by acting skills.
In the audition hall.
As one of the three founders of the company, Ma Jianguo didn't show much emotion when he saw Chen Jiahui walking in. Instead, he made a joke like an elder and said, "Xiao Chen, you just got married and went to work not long ago."
, you young people are working so hard, what will we, the elderly, do?"
"Uncle Ma, Director Guan, and Producer Yu"
Since others did not put their private unhappiness on the table, it was naturally difficult for Chen Jiahui to reveal anything.
"Xiao Chen"
