Chapter 8 Let's go back to the entertainment industry
…
When he came to the door of the Xiangjiang Street Film and Television Base with Xu Yun and others, Xu Kai saw a familiar scene.
"Action movie! Come on six men! A little taller! 70 a day!"
Not far away, the group shouted, and in an instant, all the thousands of extras at the door moved and rushed forward like crazy!
"Stand up for me! What a squeeze! I'll stand up for you if you stand together, otherwise no one of you will have a job today!"
The group roared loudly, and the extras who squeezed forward immediately stood in a few rows, as if waiting for the goods to be picked up, hoping that the group would take them away.
"You, you, you, you, you, and you, go with me! The others will be separated!"
The group leader left with the six outstanding actors, and the other actors immediately scattered.
Seeing the majestic appearance of the group heads, Xu Yun's eyes were full of envy.
However, Xu Yun did not forget to take this opportunity to win over the few defeated soldiers under his command.
Xu Yun pointed to the extras who were squatting in the sun waiting for acting opportunities and said to Jing Guangwei and others: "People like them are just trying their luck. Unless they encounter a large group and temporarily find a large number of extras, it will be difficult for most of them to find opportunities to act."
At this time, Xu Li walked over from a distance.
When Xu Yun saw this, he said proudly: "And you are different from me, Old Xu. Xu Li has contacted us with the crew of "The General of the Divine Soldiers".
"Have you heard of "The General of the Divine Soldiers". This year, Hengdian Investment can be ranked among the top 30 major projects. The action blockbuster directed by the new director Qu Xian, we can join the crew to film. Whoever is more lucky may get a character who shows his face or even has lines."
When Jing Guangwei and others heard this, they were so excited that they flattered Xu Yun.
Jing Guangwei and the others have never seen the market, which makes Xu Yun even more proud and tends to evolve towards the ecstasy.
Xu Kai could see that his father was definitely happy at this moment.
Xu Kai believed that even if he gave his father one billion, he might not be as happy as he is now.
Turning his head to look at Cui Min again, Xu Kai found that his mother was also immersed in this atmosphere - at this moment, her face was full of smiles.
"Then go back to the entertainment industry."
At this moment, Xu Kai finally made up his mind to enter the entertainment industry again.
After being praised by Jing Guangwei and others for a while, Xu Yuncai waved his hand at Xu Li with satisfaction and shouted with angrily: "Son, we are here."
It is not difficult to see that Xu Yun seemed to want everyone around him to know that he is Xu Li's father.
However, what surprised Xu Kai and others was that Xu Li did not follow the trend, but waved to Xu Yun.
Seeing this, Xu Yun's smile suddenly froze.
But Xu Yun still pretended to be calm and said to everyone: "I'll go and see what my son called me."
After saying that, Xu Yun walked quickly towards Xu Li.
When Xu Kai saw it, he followed.
When he came to Xu Li, Xu Yun asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? Could it be that something happened?"
Xu Li said angrily: "Gou Hao, that damn girl, when his sister didn't give Fang Dapin a lover, she ate mine, wear mine, and use mine, saying that I was his best friend. It's bullshit, I will never have a friend like him again!"
"What the hell is wrong? Tell me quickly." Xu Yun urged.
After calming down his mood, Xu Licai said:
"When I was drinking with me yesterday, Gou Hao promised to do it well, saying that as long as the person I brought with me, he would definitely recommend it to his brother-in-law, and his chest was slapped."
"But I just went to find Gou Hao, but he told me that his brother-in-law had decided someone else."
"I asked my friend before I found out that after drinking with me last night, Fatty Zhang took two girls to find Gou Hao. The four of them were wandering around in the Ruda Hotel opposite. This morning, Gou Hao introduced Fatty Zhang and the two girls to Fang Dapin."
"As a result, the dozen people Zhang Fatty brought were all left by the crew."
"The crew is not short of extras now."
When Xu Li heard that their position was stolen by someone else, Xu Yun suddenly became depressed. He murmured: "What should I do? I've blown away."
Xu Kai also sighed secretly.
This is the sadness of the lowest-level extras in the entertainment industry.
They don’t even have the qualifications to sign labor contracts, and they will be replaced if they say they are replaced, especially when they have no fame and no strong relationship.
Yesterday, when Xu Yun told Xu Kai that he was the leader of the group, Xu Kai was not optimistic about Xu Yun.
Don't think that the small group leader and the bottom-level managers of the crew can have a big deal.
Actually, that's not the case at all.
The group leader should wander between the crew and the extra. When they face the top, they need to find the right extra, and when they face the bottom, they need to find good acting opportunities.
The former requires many talents, but you can’t. If you have the chance, you can follow the map slowly, right?
This is why Xu Yun wanted to lead the team and why he wanted Xu Kai to hang out with him.
And this is not the most difficult, the most difficult thing is actually the latter, that is, finding opportunities to act.
Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people chasing their acting dreams and star dreams are poured into Hengdian every year.
As long as you have a reputation, pay attention to it, it is actually not difficult to recruit some talents.
Even if you have a reputation, people will jump into your bowl by themselves.
The hard part is actually finding an opportunity to act.
I won’t talk about it after I have gained fame. There will definitely be crews who really want to find good actors to come to you.
For a group leader like Xu Yun who is not famous, if he wants to grow up, he must have strong connections to support him.
But this is not what Xu Yun has in his heart. Xu Li, who is still crawling in the entertainment industry, will definitely not do it.
That's why Xu Kai changed his mind to accompany Xu Yun, Cui Min and Xu Li to enter the entertainment industry.
Sudden!
There was chaos at the door again.
But it's different from the previous ones who gathered around thousands of extras at once.
This time, all the actors chose to wait and see.
Occasionally, those who want to come forward are stopped by people who are familiar with each other.
Xu Kai asked Xu Li: "Why no one is taking this opportunity?"
Xu Li looked at the back of Xu Yun with his head hanging down and said absent-mindedly: "That's the crew of "Escape" recruiting special stunt martial artists."
Seeing that many people in the extras who looked like martial artists did not come forward to apply for the job, Xu Kai asked in confusion: "Then why don't they grab this job?"
"well!"
After sighing a long sigh, Xu Li turned his head and explained to Xu Kai: "Lin Da, the director of "Escape", is a lunatic. Two days ago, he accidentally saw that the filming building No. 23 and the filming building No. 24 were only 8 meters wide. He suddenly had a whim to film a set of scenes in which the male protagonist jumped from the roof of the filming building No. 23 to a balcony in the filming building No. 24."
"The balcony is only 3 meters wide, and the door in front of the balcony is only 1 meter wide, and it is more than 8 meters away. As long as you jump a little, or you can't jump over, you will fall. If you hang a wire, the distance is too far, so you can only be protected by air cushions downstairs. The key is that Building 23 has a full eight floors and a height of more than 30 meters. If you make a mistake in this height, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Who dares to take such a fatal life?"
"You don't know, Linda had already jumped to 10,000 yesterday, but when a few brave martial artists went up and saw the field, they were all scared back immediately. A famous martial artist who wanted money and lives stopped and knelt down and cried loudly at the last moment, and then cried, saying, "This is not filming at all, but seeking death!"."
"Everyone thinks that this is an impossible set of shots, and only Linda is still very persistent and has been increasing the rewards for recruiting people."
After hearing Xu Li's reason, Xu Kai left a sentence: "Help me hold our parents and don't let them go." Then he walked to the crew of "Escape" who recruited stunt martial artists...
