Chapter 15

Every year, a lot of TV series are purchased by TV stations, and then put in the corner and no one cares about them.If you want "The Four Contracts" to really appear on the screen, the publicity work can no longer be ignored.

Likert only has 600 million in hand, which is more than the original budget of 100 million long cards, but it is still not enough to run a 20-second commercial on a big TV station.

Likert changed his mind and began to put clips of "4 Contracts" on the Internet intermittently, spending most of the money to stir up the Internet.Back then, there were few successful cases of Internet marketing, and Likert was considered a business-minded person, so courageous, he dared to try anything.

Qiao Qiu found it interesting, so he searched the web and looked around when he had nothing to do.Their crew has various vests that are suitable for use, and the passwords will be disclosed internally.

Within a few days, the person in charge of Li Shang Studio notified Qiao Qiu and expressed his intention to sign a contract with him.

Li Shang's studio is affiliated with Huanyue Film and Television Company, and only recruits one actor or none every year.As long as it is signed by Li Shang, it proves that the actor has Li Shang's backing, and the future film career can be said to be much smoother.

There are too many monks and too little food. Every year when Li Shang studio needs to recruit people, it is crowded and bloody, and there is basically no case of actively looking for people.

Qiao Qiu is an exception.

When the person in charge of the studio called Qiao Qiu, Qiao Qiu was still reading in the study room.

When he came out and heard that the studio was about to sign a contract with him, Qiao Qiu showed a nervous expression, and said, "I... don't really understand these things."

The person in charge replied gently and patiently: "Li Shang Studio is affiliated with Huanyue Company. If you sign this agreement, it is equivalent to being an artist under the name of Huanyue Company. The company will send you a manager, and you will have a job in the future." I will contact them first, and after their review, I will hand it over to you."

Qiao Qiu said, "Oh... oh. Then?"

"what do you wish to ask?"

Qiao Qiu originally wanted to ask whether he would be paid after signing the contract, but this matter has not yet been written off. It seems that it is not good to talk about money all at once. After thinking about it, he held back and said, "Because I still have to go to school... ...There is not enough time, so can we sign a contract?"

"Well, you only need to come to the company for training on Saturdays and Sundays. We will try our best to arrange your schedule into holidays. Of course, if there is a job that is very suitable for you, we will still advise you not to pay too much attention to one aspect. It is better to balance it .”

The man said it very euphemistically. Qiao Qiu thought about it and said, "Let me think again."

"Okay." The man left a company address and told him that he would come here when he figured it out.

After returning home, Qiao Qiu told Jiang Zhanxin about it, and Jiang Zhanxin said, "Why didn't you sign?"

"..."

"Don't you want to be an actor?"

Qiao Qiu thought, yes, but he just... how should I put it, maybe he just likes acting and is interested in being an actor, but he never thought of making it a career.

He avoided answering this question, but instead asked: "But why did Li Shang sign me? Brother, is it because of you..."

Jiang Zhanxin turned his head to look at Qiao Qiu, thought about his wording, and asked, "What do you think?"

"I guess so."

"Yeah." Jiang Zhanxin was not joking, he was a little serious, and said, "I told Li Shang, let him take good care of you, and let you know in advance how disgusting the muddy water is, so that you won't be able to take it back Heart."

Qiao Qiu was taken aback for a moment, then lowered his eyes, and quickly said, "I didn't want to keep doing this. I just think..."

"Fun?" Jiang Zhanxin said lightly, "No way."

After living with Qiao Qiu for such a long time, Jiang Zhanxin can still tell whether he really likes him.

"Go if you want." Jiang Zhanxin finally said to Qiao Qiu, "Come back when you get bored, understand?"

After hearing this, Qiao Qiu also relaxed and nodded.

Li Shang studio signed a rookie actor under the age of 20, this artist is still a student of a certain university.This news was quite a sensation at the time, but fortunately, Li Shang’s studio did a good job of keeping secrets. He only said: “He is still in training now, not counting his debut, everything depends on his future development.”

This is also a kind of protection for Qiao Qiu, so that he will not be disturbed too much.

The recruitment of Li Shang studio is strict, and the training is equally strict. Although they train with the artists of Huanyue Zhaojin, the intensity is different.Every newcomer enters, no matter what the starting point is, they will be peeled off three layers of skins, and after they come out, they will be a qualified high-quality artist. Most crews like to go to Li Shang studio to pick people.

Considering that Qiao Qiu was still studying, he was not allowed to do closed training at first, but he had to spend six hours every day on holidays to go to the gymnasium to train his physical fitness, stretch his legs and so on.

Qiao Qiu was allocated a dormitory just after signing the contract, and he could go to the dormitory to rest between training and rest.

Qiao Qiu usually didn't go back very often, but one day he practiced hard and his legs hurt badly, so he walked to the dormitory after lunch and wanted to lie down for a while.

He opened the door with the key, and heard a voice inside, which must be his cohabitant, so Qiao Qiu said hello: "Hello."

The person replied: "Hello."

Qiao Qiu walked into the room and was taken aback when he saw the man's appearance, because he actually knew this man.

"Qiao Qiu?" The man was also surprised and looked at himself in disbelief.

"Yes," Qiao Qiu thought for a while and said, "—A Ling."

Qiao Qiu and A Ling met in Huaidu.At that time, I was filming in Huaidu, because Qiao Qiu followed the crew, so the job was relatively stable.When there is no work, apart from watching other people's performances, Qiao Qiu will also look around.

Huaidu Film and Television City has a vast area and picturesque scenery. It is a famous tourist attraction in the local area. Tourists often watch the film crew filming, hoping to see big stars.

Qiao Qiu avoided the crowded place and walked to the periphery, where he saw a tall boy talking loudly with a woman.

The woman's voice was sharp: "...Do you want to act? But you also need to know people. I know many directors and assistant directors. Just tell them, I guarantee you..."

As soon as Qiao Qiu came here, he was educated by Likert.Those who say this kind of thing are basically liars, and those who ask you to pay after saying this are [-]% liars.It's not the director who has the final say on the selection of the crew, so don't the opinions of the producers and supervisors need to be considered?

Qiao begged to see that the boy wanted to refuse but it was hard to say. He looked unfamiliar, hesitated for a while, and stepped forward to help him out.

That boy is A Ling.

The two got to know each other like this, and later found out that Ah Ling didn't go to college, but just wanted to make a movie, and came to Huadu alone after graduating from high school, but because of his young age, many people thought he was a newcomer when they saw him.

"I was teasing her at that time." Later, A-Ling laughed and said to Qiao Qiu, "I hate their liars the most. When they are bored, they put up fake money. This is called reciprocity."

Ah Ling is young and loves to play, with a straightforward personality, lively and active. When filming "4 Contracts", the two became good friends.

I thought I would never see him again, but I didn't expect to be able to see him in the dormitory due to such a fate.

A Ling laughed and lay down on the bed, saying:

"What a coincidence."

"Yes." Qiao Qiu also smiled.

"I was signed by Huanyue two months ago. What about you?"

"I..." Qiao Qiu said, "I'm in Li Shang's studio now."

Ah Ling nodded and said, "Yo, Best Actor Li, very good, very good."
