I became popular after being dressed as a dead cannon fodder

At that moment, Yu Chi thought a lot, thought of many problems in the past that he had never tried before, and that he never dared to face.

He is afraid of failure.

He hates being imperfect.

Don't dare to start a relationship, don't want to trust others, and always move forward on the path you think is right.

He doesn't want to be trusted.

He only believes in himself and only in interests.

As for sincerity?He never cared about what it was, but facing this request at this moment, he inevitably fell silent.

The two sides knew too little about each other, and he actually didn't have much expectation.However, the truthfulness and honesty shown by the other party in the past few times have faintly touched him.

If he wants to play a game.

Yu Chi thought, he was willing.He didn't want to stay where he was, and he was always afraid of something.

He should understand that nothing is completely perfect.

YC: Good.

Yu Chi's answer was very simple, but after that, he took the initiative to ask the director of "Your Majesty Wan'an" who had been in contact with him.

Is the heroine confirmed?Is there a suitable candidate?

If not, he has a good recommender to ask first.Although the agent said that the director had no achievements in the past, in fact Yu Chi was quite optimistic.

Not everyone can succeed the first time.

Based on his communication with this small team, the director is young and respects the screenwriter very much. The two are brothers from the same school and have a good relationship.

The script has been polished for almost a year, and the screenwriter will often ask him for his views on the characters, and the director will occasionally send out his own hand-painted storyboards and concept drawings.

Yu Chi looked at it and felt that it was quite aura.

"I haven't decided on the heroine yet. I have auditioned several times. Either I hate the low salary or the lack of acting skills." The director was very distressed, and it was really not easy to find a suitable actor.

Despite the additional investment, they decided to put more money into the finished product.

In fact, after getting more investment, they are not so stingy with the film salary, but due to the short and fast rhythm of online dramas, the tentative number of episodes is 28 episodes.

Today's dramas are full of water, and the pay for one less episode is too much. In addition, it is still an online drama, and some well-known actors are somewhat looked down upon.

"If there is anyone who thinks it is suitable, I can recommend it." The director is now rich and powerful.The first film he directed was a martial arts drama in Dulian Theater of Qingju Video.

It is also an adaptation of a novel, the investment is not particularly low in online dramas, and the scenes and shots produced are also praised.But maybe the plot is slow, heavy, and the playback volume is average, so it's not enough.

The upper management who had been optimistic about him felt that the rate of return was too low, so they also gave up on him.

He happened to meet a junior from the same school, and he had a dispute with his company because of the issue of the script's signature, so he came out to do it alone.After the two chatted over wine, and after hearing about the junior brother's preference for an unpopular novel, they gradually became interested in cooperating.

Due to lack of investment, the project was put on hold for a whole year. As a director, he went to a documentary crew to work part-time to earn money and pay the screenwriter junior so that he could concentrate on creating.

After the script came out, they also tried various ways to attract investment, and even asked Yu Chi with an attitude of giving it a try, if they were interested in the male lead in their script?

They were close to giving up at that time, but Yu Chi's approval restored their confidence, and they continued to communicate, and finally they were spotted by Honeymelon Video and invested 1000 million.

"You're welcome, if anyone chooses, just push it. It's been quite rough for this crew to get to the present, but fortunately, all the hard work has finally paid off." The director sincerely sighed.

Two months ago, how could he have imagined that this nearly dead project would come back to life and even get a good investment.

"Then I won't be polite." Yu Chi smiled and said gently.

Holding his mobile phone, he took the initiative to contact a contact whom he hadn't talked to for several days.According to his guess, the other party should have a schedule at this time.

YC: Are you there?

Xiao Yuhan: Yes, long time no contact.Forgot to mention, congratulations!

Yu Chi laughed. The other party gave him a like in Moments a few days ago, but he didn't want to disturb him casually.

The filming of "The Character of an Actor" has long since ended, and all the actors are back on track and going their separate ways.

Actors with schedules and resources continue to accept plays and enter groups to film; those who do not take the actor's way can continue to appear in variety shows; those who have no resources and no background keep auditioning for opportunities.

The entertainment industry is small, but it is also very big.There are different places, some actors may only cooperate in one play, while others play two roles, three roles and four roles, forming a screen couple.

Yu Chi made a voice call and asked, "There is a web drama project, and I took the leading role. There is a shortage of female leads, so your schedule should be free right now. The script is quite good, do you want to give it a try?" ?”

Xiao Yuhan was really confused.

During this period of time, her popularity has risen because of variety shows, but variety shows are just variety shows, and her company is just a small workshop in the entertainment circle, and she can't get any good resources at all.

Is she still arguing with the company now?

Seeing that the deadline for termination of the contract was approaching, the original company desperately wanted her to take advantage of the hard work to make a comeback, and hurry up to join the group to take on the show, so as to generate income for the company.

She did get along with the director in the variety show, and she understood that sometimes she can't take some scenes.Making money is part of it, but if she wants to advance her career, she has to pick some.

Although everyone in the circle believes in fate, she still insists on good works, and the role will not be buried.

Fortunately, she has a good agent to deal with and consider for her, so she can breathe a sigh of relief, but recently there are really no roles she can look up to.

"However, I have to remind you that the salary will not be very high. If you want to give it a try, I will send you a contact information." Yu Chi has always been concise and to the point in this kind of matter, never talking nonsense.

"You send it, I'll ask. Maybe I'll like it, but people don't like me." Xiao Yuhan said the truth.In her past experience, it was a process of being selected and constantly denied.

She really doesn't have confidence or anything like that.

However, she trusts Yu Chi's acting skills, even if it's really bad, she can improve a lot by playing against him.Not to mention the heroine, the number one heroine!

She hasn't played the lead actress yet.

A few days ago, the company even persuaded her to act as the heroine in a certain devil-fighting crew. If she was promoted, she would not be able to act as the second female lead.

"You're quite suitable." Yu Chi is quite confident in his own vision. Filming TV dramas is not his forte, but he is good at picking actors.

After finishing the chat, Yu Chi opened the latest message.

Zhao Chengxuan: Thank you.

Yu Chi was a little helpless, whether he was too boring, or the other party was too cautious, always feeling very unfamiliar.

Zhao Chengxuan: Actually, I don't know much about the operation of film and television projects.But you acted very well, and I have great confidence in your ability.

Yu Chi lay on the bed, looking at this line of words, a little bit broken.

He doesn't believe it, he doesn't believe in his own ability!Having dealt with film and television for many years, he just wants to say that success is linked to the strength of the work, and the degree of success...it really depends on luck.

YC: Don't invest blindly.

YC: You must have lied before.Didn't you say that you have found relevant risk assessors?I think you want to invest on a whim.

YC: Humph.

Zhao Chengxuan: I'm sorry, I just think... this crew seems to be quite poor.So, put some money in.

Yu Chi really wanted to lure away this tycoon who flaunted his wealth. A little money was quite a lot for him.Don't invest in film and television projects casually, because what you play is the heartbeat.

You can get rich overnight, or you may lose nothing, and you may even lose a lot of money after years of hard work.

That taste is really unpleasant.

Zhao Chengxuan: I only invested 3 million yuan.However, some of the shares of Melon Video are on my side. I am very familiar with DR and have cooperated a lot.Maybe because of this, they also voted more.

Yu Chi understood in no time, this was to curry favor with the big boss.

He had searched for relevant information on Honeymelon Video’s first two rounds of financing. Among them, the DR Venture Capital Fund invested in the bulk, and the Zhao Group took the lead in investing part of it.

YC: Forget it, you are not short of money.

YC: If you want to vote in the future, don't put all your eggs in one basket.With this size, the investment is a bit too much, and it is very difficult to get it back.

Yu Chi is no longer entangled. Compared with movies that are frightening, TV dramas have a much higher chance of recovering their costs. Even if the number of ratings hits the street, they can still rely on the early advertising fees to make up for it.

He originally thought that the script was good, and he hadn't tried a role in a TV series for a long time, so he really wanted to try it out to find out how he felt.This kind of small project, relying on the script to win, there is still a chance of making a big fortune with a small one.

Now that there are so many additional votes, he is sincere... not sure.

Zhao Chengxuan looked at the reply, dumbfounded.

Of course he is not short of money, but he always thinks that he is.Zhao Chengxuan's thinking is very simple, if he casts more, it is estimated that the crew will be able to pay more for the leading actors.

He didn't think about whether he could recover the cost at all, but he couldn't help but want to spend money to help him.

He was even a little afraid of being known by the other party. He never thought that after the young man found out, he would be embarrassed, even a little embarrassed, and would take the initiative to come to him and tell him not to do it.

"Sure enough, is the money offensive useless?"

Zhao Chengxuan thought of the "30 Tips on How to Please Your Lover" that he had read from an online emotional blogger, and it was obvious that the first thing to do was to spend money on the person he liked.

He dug out the saved posts and saw the second one: put the other party first.Zhao Chengxuan realized something, and after thinking for a long time, he sent two voices.

"Don't think about me."

"You know, it's nothing to me."

The unequal economic conditions do not mean that the feelings cannot be equal.As the older party, he is more tolerant and caring.

When Yu Chi received it, he wanted to beat him up.This kind of calm, completely indifferent tone, is it really a person who has achieved financial freedom?

But he subtly understood the meaning of these two sentences, he just didn't want to worry too much.No need to feel guilty, don't be embarrassed.

Hate.

hateful.

The person appointed by Yu Chi looked at the script, trying to divert his attention.In any case, he was still very angry.

Does he mind the other party investing money?He obviously cares about losing money!

It didn't cost much, and the project became popular and exploded, that's the joy of whoring for nothing, do you understand!

Three days later, Yu Chi received a response from Xiao Yuhan.

Xiao Yuhan: I passed the audition, and I have to be in the same crew again.However, the director said that the second male lead has not yet found a suitable person, and the start-up time still needs to be delayed.

Xiao Yuhan: I have read the script three times, it is really interesting.Looking forward to launching.

Yu Chi looked at this line of text and turned to a conversation a few hours ago.

Lin Yansheng: Congratulations!It's really nice of you to leave early.I just participated in the live broadcast ceremony a few days ago, and it was embarrassing.The program party really doesn't behave like a human being!

Lin Yansheng: It feels like Teacher Chu is mad.

Yu Chi knew that when "The Character of an Actor" ended a few days ago, the final judgment was made into a live broadcast. The four directors will bring their team members and the works they have shot to the final live broadcast to decide the winner.

To everyone's surprise, there was a big upset.

The champion is Ge Hong's group.

Best actor was awarded to an older senior.

In fact, Yu Chi looked at the news and public opinion on the Internet, and found that both Chu Jiangli and Wen Hai's final works were very good, each with its own merits.Lin Yansheng and Xiao Yuhan performed very well in their respective groups.

In short, Yu Chi received screenshots of the live broadcast from Chacha, and the four directors were full of gunpowder.

The distribution of the program seems to be pleasing to no one.

Lin Yansheng: You don't know how messy the arrangement was on the day of the live broadcast, and the hosts have no experience.The time was not arranged, and we waited for more than two hours before entering.When the live broadcast started, almost everyone was present.

YC: Have you joined the group yet?

Lin Yansheng: What the fuck.I have been dealing with the old company for the past two months, and finally the mediation is over.Two days ago, I had just negotiated a contract with Jiang Xia, and I flew to Jianghai to participate in the live broadcast ceremony, and I was in a hurry to order a magazine, so I was exhausted.

YC: Congrats JPG

Lin Yansheng: I just went to the company today, and my agent jumped over with me. There are many things to do.Jiangxia is indeed a very good company, but it is too big and the competition is really big.Very good resources are not my turn.

Yu Chi was bored and looked through Moments.

In the circle of friends, Zhang Lu posted a meal on the set, her former roommate posted a video of skateboarding, and the director of "Your Majesty Wan'an" posted a recruitment poster. There are a few actors who are urgently needed, and a biography of the characters is attached.

"Male No. [-]".

Yu Chi looked at the description in the biography and closed his eyes in thought.He admitted that this role was indeed a temptation for him.Abandoning the male lead and choosing to play the second male lead, a normal person would not make such a choice.

Don't be too capricious.

YC: You said, choose what you like.It's still a better choice.

YC: Definitely choose better ones.

Zhao Chengxuan received this news at 6 pm.

He was silent.

If he makes a choice, he must choose the one with the highest rate of return.Over the years of working in the mall, he has long been used to coldly measuring each project with numbers, and even the relationship between people is controlled by the degree of friendliness represented by precise numbers.

I like.

He has already forgotten what it is to love with all his heart.His life, constant meetings, discussions, cooperation... He rarely even returns to his own home alone, and mostly stays in the company.

Simply because that makes no difference at all.

"Choose what you like, it will be a pity if you miss it." Zhao Chengxuan will not understand how gentle his voice is at this moment, he has no other thoughts, he just hopes that the person he puts in his heart,

Be happier.

Don't be sad, even if it's just words, he can still feel the self-mockery of pretending to be calm.

He didn't know what this young man had gone through, he just felt stabbed every time he saw his smile.His smile is mostly polite in social situations.

"If it were me, I would choose the one with the highest rate of return. But you are different, you are still young, I hope you can choose the one you really like... until the end, who knows that it was a wrong decision."

"My life has taught me that nothing is set in stone, it is smooth sailing."

His voice is calm and sincere, like a politician who really cares about the people.He doesn't make promises easily, but analyzes the pros and cons for you from your perspective, leading to the results he wants.

Yu Chi listened, only thinking that he is definitely a top-notch old man who deceives people.Listen, he never mentions the failure after making a wrong decision; listen, he keeps drawing big cakes for him.

Unfortunately, he was heartbroken.

He didn't want to leave regrets, he didn't want to weigh the pros and cons rationally like before, and make the choice he should make.He wanted the new life to be more interesting.

Whether it leads to hell or heaven, he is willing to accept it.

"No matter what the result is, it's a kind of growth." Zhao Chengxuan's eyes wandered on the document in front of him, but he couldn't see clearly what was written.

His voice was low and powerful.He was trying to restrain the emotions spreading in his chest.

How much he wants to own, no, to possess/possess him forever, to declare his existence to others.

Yu Chi asked softly: "Are you trying to trick me?" That's right, he is the kind of person who wants to beat back.When the opponent takes a step back, he takes a step forward.

"Ah."

Yu Chi thought, really can't lie?He paused, and quickly changed his tone, with a childish waywardness, "I want to hear the truth."

There seemed to be a pause of more than ten seconds before his eternally calm, calm, seemingly infallible voice appeared.

"It was my fault."

"The truth is: even if there is not enough reward, I will support your choice. Whether you fail or not, I sincerely hope that you can enjoy this process. Besides, there is me. I just want to help you. If, you If you want to treat me as a friend."

"Just friends?"

Yu Chi dropped the bomb, but didn't give him a chance to reply.He opened the contacts, quickly and accurately found the director's number, said hello, and got straight to the point.

YC: Male number two, can you see if I can do it?I really like this character.

The director quickly made a surprised expression and called.The two chatted for about half an hour about the script characters and behind-the-scenes preparations.

The director thought about it seriously, if Yu Chi wanted to, that's totally fine.

The role of the male number two has not been determined for a long time, because the requirements of this role are relatively high. If you find a male to play, the appearance should not be too vulgar and masculine.

He should be refined and beautiful.

In the script, although there are not many scenes of the second male lead in women's clothing, it is not a joke in ordinary dramas.On the contrary, the script is serious and carefully portrays this supporting role.

His anger, depression, unwillingness... His often polarized attitude towards the heroine, seems to be relieved, seems to be jealous, and the script is well explained through the complete plot.

The director first thought of sending out the invitation because he saw Yu Chi's cheongsam scene in a variety show. It was not masculine and masculine, but soft and charming. The seduction that he wanted to refuse and welcome reminded him of the male protagonist in the script. .

"It's totally fine if you want." The director replied.Compared with the male number two, the requirements for the actor's face are relatively high, but the male lead is actually not that high.

According to the description in the script, he is handsome.In the early stage, he and the heroine were completely in the mode of getting along with each other as good brothers. The two were forced to tie together. In order to survive, they sharpened their knives and pointed at others.

"Protagonist, I have a recommendation..."

After Yu Chi made the phone call and got the director's approval, he first notified his agent, and then sent a message to a former teammate who complained to him every day.

YC: Actor, do you want to act?

Lin Yansheng: Of course!But it's not that easy. My agent recently asked me about it. The better book has been ordered, and I can pick up the second male and the third male.

Lin Yansheng: It's not that I haven't been asked to play the male lead, but those scripts are all mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas that want to be starred, and the male lead is too instrumental.

YC: ...the actor of a web drama.

Nowadays, the major video platforms are still just beginning to test shoot their own online dramas, and it hasn’t been long since they have concentrated on self-made. In China, there are basically three companies in China: Qingju Video, Honeydew Video, and Orange Melon Video. There are also some smaller platforms behind.

Before Qingju Video, because of its overreach, it was unable to recover the cost after investing in many online drama projects, which almost caused the capital chain to break.

Therefore, several other video platforms have lingering fears.

Star dramas are still the mainstream model, and there are more high-quality products produced.In the face of blockbuster dramas, several major video platforms are scrambling for exclusive broadcasting rights.

Some people want to play the heroine of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama who can become a star, but haven't had the chance yet?

Judging rationally, Yu Chi doesn't think that this risky project is really better than a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law drama with a stable market and high ratings.

Nowadays, among the several male stars in the front line, two of them once relied on mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas and family dramas to open up their nationality, and their resources soared.

Lin Yansheng: The leading actor in a web drama?Do you act too?

YC: Well, for the theme of ancient costumes, I will play the male lead.

Lin Yansheng: Tell me about it in detail.

……

Lin Yansheng: In other words, in the script, you like me and I don't like you, and I want to kill you.My character is really a hate character.

YC: I don't like you.

Lin Yansheng: It's okay, as long as you like it superficially.I took this scene, no, I'll talk to my agent first, and I'll get back to you later.After hearing you talk about the script, I think this play has a lot to offer.

YC: The heroine has already been decided, you should be familiar with it, it is Xiao Yuhan.

Lin Yansheng: The heroine is not important.

Lin Yansheng: Trust you again.At that time, it’s okay for the ratings of online dramas to hit the street. If it doesn’t work, we can still speculate on CP to continue the popularity.

YC: ...

YC: If you play like this, something will happen sooner or later.

Lin Yansheng: Let's talk about the accident.You see, don't our cp fans get along very well with their respective fans?

Lin Yansheng: [picture]

Lin Yansheng: [picture]

Lin Yansheng: Besides, the relationship in this script is quite messy. CP can be stir-fried casually, and it can be matched in pairs.

Yu Chi laughed.

The cp fans of the two of them are called letting go of themselves and only caring about themselves.Who said that the owner of his own family once struck three be ironclad evidences, cp fans have long been heartbroken, feeling tired and not loving.

Even if they continue to lead the way, they often play tricks that are hard to get back.

The only fans of both sides occupy the highest position, out of sight, out of mind. CP fans are my own, they are all fake anyway, I am happy to be a be and a person.

The slogan of cp fans is "Sinking fish and falling geese", the be aesthetics is the right time, place and people.

Yu Chi thought, he was really forced to learn this knowledge, and he was able to calmly watch the editing under the influence of his ears and eyes.

After exiting the chat history, it was inevitable to see new messages from that person.

[Not a friend, but a suitor. ]

Yu Chi looked at this reply, twitched the corners of his mouth, and responded: Isn't it the boyfriend who is scheduled?

The author has something to say: try to add emotion to the plot, the previous typo has been fixed
