"You want to terminate the contract? Do you know what the contract between the company and you is like? To be honest, I don't quite understand it." Manager Liang Wan had just finished the event with another artist under his command, and finally had a bite of food. Just received a call from this artist who was supposed to be the most worry-free artist under his command.
She had actually taken care of quite a few newcomers, but among so many newcomers, Shi Chengyan was the only one who hadn't done anything during the five years she had taken care of him.
Without an assistant, he didn't care.
There is no drama appointment, and I attend the advanced acting class arranged by the company on time every day.
There were conflicts with other artists, and they reconciled privately without waiting for her to ask, and even became friends with each other who could have dinner together.
Even the plays in recent years are all obtained by him through auditions.
Thinking about it this way, she didn't do her best to lead Shi Chengyan in the past two years, but she couldn't help it, that's how the circle was.
She was pleasantly surprised when Shi Chengyan was allocated to her. After all, Shi Chengyan's face is really amazing, so she carefully took care of it for a while.
The current entertainment industry does not need excellent professional skills as it did in the past, as long as you have a good face, you are half popular, not to mention that you have a professional background under the teacher Yan Yan, and your acting skills are definitely above the average level of the current entertainment industry.
Nai Hehong is a master of metaphysics, and Liang Wan is not a big-name agent, and his resources are limited, so even if Shi Chengyan is inserted into the crew, it is not a big role.
But at least you can brush your face, right?
Facts have proved - no!
No matter how popular these drama groups are before the broadcast, no matter how big the production is, after the broadcast, the result is either that the drama is not popular or the drama is not popular, let alone Shi Chengyan as a small supporting role. , not even a splash.
So what can Liang Wan do, she still has to rely on the artist's business commission to eat, so Shi Chengyan was released, and in the end because he made Liang Wan worry so much, he was almost completely forgotten.
Otherwise, if he tried on the male third of "Sky Mirror", the company wouldn't be so stingy that he wouldn't even be willing to give him an assistant. I don't like being followed up by assistants, so I didn't even bring it up myself.
Liang Wan's words did not sway Shi Chengyan, he had already made a decision before calling, so he told Liang Wan firmly: "Yes, I don't want to renew the contract."
"I really don't understand. There is an additional clause in our company's rookie contract, right?" Liang Wan said again.
Now the newcomer contracts in the industry are generally eight years. The first three years are the company's various packaging investments, and the next five years are the real "harvest period". Therefore, there is an additional clause in the five-year contract of Shiyuan Entertainment. After the one-year contract expires, the actor will not be able to sign with any entertainment company other than Shiyuan Entertainment for three years. However, at the same time, in order not to damage the interests of the artist, Shiyuan Entertainment will unconditionally renew the contract. If Shiyuan Entertainment unilaterally breaches the contract , the additional clause does not count.
Compared with other entertainment companies' direct eight-year contract, this signing method is actually beneficial to the artist. If they can become popular in those five years, they can get a more advantageous share than the rookie contract when they renew the contract.
Moreover, Shiyuan's reputation in the industry is relatively good, at least for so many years, there has never been a malicious artist contract.
So Cheng Yancai, who was just in his junior year at that time, signed Shiyuan directly after discussing with his teacher when receiving Shiyuan's contract.
"I know."
"You know that you haven't renewed your contract. What are you going to do during the three years in between? Fighting alone? Seeing that you just took on an important role, it might become popular. Why are you so upset? Is someone in the company bullying you? Or Said that there is a company willing to pay you sky-high liquidated damages to help you find another job? If it is the latter, then I have no objection." Liang Wan's mouth was like a machine gun, and as soon as he put his chopsticks down, it seemed that he couldn't eat lunch today.
Although she doesn't care about Shi Chengyan now, after all, she once placed high hopes on him, so naturally she also hoped for his well-being.
Shi Chengyan also knew what she meant, but he didn't waver: "I probably won't work in the industry in the future."
"Okay, since you have said that, I can't say anything. I will talk to the leader about your matter, and I will contact you when the time comes."
Liang Wan really couldn't understand the reason why Shi Chengyan did this. He was clearly about to get ahead, but why did he give up like this.However, Shi Chengyan's words were all for this sake, and it would appear that she was meddling even if she tried to persuade her, and they didn't have much affection between them, so she didn't take it seriously.
"Okay, thank you, Miss Liang."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Chengyan found that he was not as melancholy as he expected, and even had some insignificant relief.
The entertainment industry is more annoying than imagined, especially for his little transparency. The enthusiasm he had when he was in school seems to be gone now. At the beginning, he thought that it would be okay if he was not popular, as long as he had a play, he didn't care about the role. How small.
But the reality is that there is no role to look for if you are not popular, you can only play some small roles that are better than group performances, and they are all the same kind.
It's pretty boring over time.
Although "Sky Mirror" is currently favored by many people, Shi Chengyan himself participated in the whole process, and also feels that this TV series is among the top crews he has worked in since he entered the TV series, from the script to all aspects of details, but the world is always unpredictable, and it is uncertain which lead actor It's not impossible for Orange to start broadcasting, and it's not like this kind of thing hasn't happened in the circle.
Shi Chengyan has long given up the dream of being a little red and having more roles to choose from.
What's more, even if he becomes popular, he will still choose to stay with the old man in the end. It's better to cut the mess quickly now, so as to avoid falling into more difficult choices in the future.
After hanging up the phone, Shi Chengyan let out a sigh of relief.
He has been studying acting for about seven or eight years, and it is impossible for him to give up acting and say that he is not emotional at all.
Standing in the stairwell for a while, Shi Chengyan collected her emotions, then turned and went back to the ward.
------
Shi Qingya's illness was just a sudden rush, not a big problem, so he was arguing to be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon.
There was no other way, so Shi Chengyan had no choice but to find a doctor to confirm that there was no problem, then he went through the discharge procedures for the old man, and brought him home.
Their family has a small courtyard in the center of Bei'an City, which was purchased by his grandfather some years ago.There are two front and back courtyards, the area is not small, and it was not cheap back then, not to mention now, Shi Chengyan can be regarded as the second generation of rich in a sense, and it is precisely because the family is not short of money that Shi Chengyan has the confidence to chase after him. Dream showbiz.
Although the house in the small courtyard still has the old appearance, the inside has completely changed.
His grandfather had someone repair it two years ago, equipped with various modern appliances, raised the courtyard walls a lot, and added a lot of high-tech security measures.
However, the outside of the small courtyard still looks antique, and there are many rare flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, many of which have been around for a long time.
Shi Qingya himself wanted to grow vegetables in the yard, but because the front yard was Chenglu Residence, he dismissed the idea.
And the backyard is where they live, and Shi Chengyan grew up in this small courtyard, and it has been nearly 20 years now.
"How long are you going to stay at home when you come back this time? Well, you haven't eaten the delicious food made by grandpa, now go shopping with me, and make delicious food for you to eat in the evening." Shi Qingya probably really has too much time to spare. I just stayed in the hospital for one night, and my hands were itchy without touching his stove.
How could this be possible? Neither Shi Chengyan nor Xue Zhen would agree.
"Master, you'd better take a break. Eat the meal made by your grandson at noon, and eat the meal made by your little apprentice at night. Master, you will never dislike my poor craftsmanship!" Shi Chengyan speaks in two styles, which shows that this person is not really unable to speak.
Shi Chengyan also nodded quickly, and said: "Yes, you should rest for two days. Didn't the doctor tell you to rest at home well? I will stay with you at home from now on. I must have many opportunities to eat the meals you cook."
As soon as he finished speaking, not only Shi Qingya, but even Xue Zhen looked at him with surprised eyes.
Shi Qingya frowned even more, and asked: "What's going on, if it's because of Zhaofei's affairs, then it's unnecessary."
He knew that Xue Zhen would definitely tell Shi Chengyan about this matter, but he didn't want Shi Chengyan to make a decision that went against his own ideas because of this.
Shi Chengyan shook his head, and said with a relaxed face: "How can this be? I signed a five-year contract with the company. It's not that the contract is about to expire. You see, I haven't made a name for myself. The company just signed a five-year contract. decided not to renew the contract."
He deliberately blurred some key points, did not mention the additional clause, nor did he say that he initiated the termination of the contract.
"That's their loss." The old man was still a little angry.
"Yes, yes, your grandson is the best! But we have to go shopping quickly, otherwise they will pick up the leftovers. Let's talk again when we have something to do." Xue Zhen looked at the old man, how could he be like this With an expression on his face, he quickly interrupted the conversation and changed the subject.
Shi Chengyan: It's yin and yang, but grandpa can't hear it, so I can't hate him, so angry!
Xue Zhen also had her own room in Chengluju, so after dinner, she went back to her room to rest, leaving space for the grandpa and grandson to chat by themselves.
"What's going on, you have to tell me clearly, don't you like acting very much?"
"Didn't I still like learning how to cook when I was a child? My liking can change, and now I want to learn how to cook again!" Of course the reality is not that simple, but the system and the depth of the entertainment industry can't be explained to the old man in detail. Let him not think too much.
Seeing that there was no trace of reluctance on Shi Chengyan's face, Shi Qingya was sure that he was not being forced, and after asking some details, he didn't ask any more.
Shi Chengyan, who finally managed to deal with the past, quietly let out a sigh of relief.
"That's fine, you are not too old now, and it is not difficult to learn from scratch. You follow me, and I will teach you well. There is nothing wrong with being a chef. You can have a bite of food at any time. This bite The food tastes good." The old man is indeed the same old man, and he can always speak witty words when talking about his beloved cooking career.
With the old man's words, Shi Chengyan's nightmare began.
Just before five o'clock the next morning, Shi Chengyan was called up by the old man, who asked Shi Chengyan to go shopping with him.
"Grandpa, are there any guests here today? What kind of food do you want to buy?" Shi Chengyan asked without getting up, rubbing his head that was just like a chicken coop.
It took a while to realize, and asked: "No, didn't Xue Zhen push away all the guests these days?"
"I bought the vegetables for you and the youngest. I don't know what you are thinking. It is not so easy to support the Chengluju signboard. Hurry up. Xue Zhen is already washing up."
This stern old man made Shi Chengyan dream back to his childhood.
Ever since he gave up his culinary skills, it seems that he has never seen the old man face him like this. This posture is usually towards the apprentices.
Shi Chengyan had nothing to say, and honestly washed up and prepared to go out.
He has already recognized the reality, now he is either grandpa's grandson, or Cheng Luju, an ordinary apprentice Ba Liao!
