The bard joins the entertainment industry

Shan Xiaolou and Wang Jinghua chatted for a while, then called Chen Shuo to sign.

There is nothing special about the contract. It is nothing more than rights and obligations. What is worth mentioning is the remuneration.

Nowadays, Chen Shuo's salary for TV series has reached 50,000 yuan per episode, but most of the TV series he shoots now have company elements and will not strictly follow this price.

Even "Fairy Sword", a work jointly produced by the two companies, is said to cost 50,000 yuan per episode. In fact, Chen Shuo only received 300,000 yuan, which is more than 30,000 yuan per episode.

There is only one reference for movie remuneration, which is 500,000 in "House of Flying Daggers".

It’s just that the character of Sui Feng is the second male lead, while the character of Si Yan is the last.

Another thing is that Zhang Yimou has always been generous with his actions, while Feng Xiaogang is famous for his careful calculation.

Even Ge You's remuneration was only over one million, so naturally the amount given to Chen Shuo couldn't be too much.

But with the experience of "House of Flying Daggers", it was impossible to give him too little. After some negotiations, the final salary was set at 300,000.

Chen Shuo didn't care about this. When there was no problem with the contract, he signed it directly.

"The character gets an acting challenge, Four Eyes from "A World Without Thieves".

Challenge reward: 2000 professional experience points, 2000 drama skill experience points.

Tip: The final result will be based on the final evaluation, and you will receive corresponding experience rewards. "

Suifeng's challenge reward is 5,000, and Li Xiaoyao's challenge reward is 4,000.

From this we can see the difference between movies and TV series.

A movie lasts just over a hundred minutes in total, while a TV series often lasts for more than twenty episodes, with each episode lasting about forty minutes.

One scene in the movie is worth ten scenes in the TV series.

After taking the script, Chen Shuo and Shan Xiaolou left Huayi and nodded and smiled with Wang Jinghua before leaving.

In fact, the conversation between him and Wang Jinghua was not deliberate. He just met and talked about it, so he said those words.

On the way back, Chen Shuo said to Shan Xiaolou: "Sister Xiaolou, when you get back, you can contact Sister Hua to try to make things easier for her, and ask her to think of us if there is any opportunity in the future.

If you have any questions about brokerage operations in the future, you can also ask her for advice. I don’t think she will refuse? "

"I was just about to ask, what were you talking about with her?" Shan Xiaolou asked curiously, as if Wang Jinghua had become his.

"It's nothing, I accidentally gave her some inspiration." Chen Shuo recounted the content of his chat with Wang Jinghua.

Shan Xiaolou couldn't help but think thoughtfully after hearing this.

If we can really separate brokerage operations and film and television production, it will indeed be much more efficient, and it will also reduce many conflicts between the company and the artists.

But this is not that easy, and it has many obvious shortcomings.

For example, what should we do if several crews like the same actor at the same time? What should you do if the actor doesn't want the role you assigned?

After hearing her doubts, Chen Shuo smiled and said: "There is no perfect way in this world. What I told her was just a hasty statement, not a suggestion after careful consideration.

The purpose of saying this is not really to help her build a dynasty in a brokerage company, but just to have a relationship with her.

As for what she will do in the future, and whether she can really do it, doesn't it all depend on her own ability?

If she succeeds, we can't say we can benefit from it, but can we not suffer a loss?

Besides, Sister Hua is such a shrewd person, how could she not see it?

It's just that she thinks the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. "

Shan Xiaolou nodded and said: "That's right. Then I will have to contact her frequently in the future. If nothing else, just participating in this matter can gain a lot of experience."

In the following time, Chen Shuo and the others played happily for a few days. On the day of the Lantern Festival, they ran to Tiananmen Square to watch the lanterns.

It was also on this day of reunion that Mei Yanfang ended her brilliant but short life.

Suddenly, countless media rushed to report this incident. At that time, Chen Shuo and others were playing outside. After returning, they learned about the incident after receiving a call from Wu Qi.

The album was going to be promoted tomorrow, and everything was ready at Jingwen, so he had no choice but to call Andy Lau and say his condolences.

I’m thinking of going there to have a look when I go to Hong Kong to promote my album.

That night, after reading the news reports, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei chatted with Mei Yanfang for a long time, covering every detail of the filming.

It's a pity that God is jealous of beauty.

Early the next morning, He Zhengyang sent someone to pick up Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei to Dongdan to prepare for the first day of the autograph session.

Just like the last album signing event, we will perform and sign books at the same time.

Liu Yifei is not only a supporting guest, but this album also has her songs, so I just took the opportunity to see the live effect.

Of course, Liu Yifei was not the only one who came, but also other singers from Jingwen.

Following the first performance, Chen Shuo sang "Hair Like Snow" to completely open up the atmosphere of the scene, and then he and Liu Yifei sang "Mortal Eyes".

Now Liu Yifei's voice has made great progress under the training of "Five Animal Vocalization Method".

In addition, I had deliberately practiced this song, and the audience was surprised as soon as I started singing.

Then there was warm applause, which gave her great confidence.

Starting at 8 a.m. and ending at 10 p.m., Chen Shuo signed a total of more than 20,000 signatures.

The total sales volume in one day reached an astonishing 150,000 copies. Before noon, He Zhengyang and Xu Zhongmin were immediately forced to start the factory at full capacity.

Fortunately, several lines in the factory are recording the album "Snowy Moon Style", but the speed has slowed down, and now the recording speed is very fast.

If the production line is withdrawn, it will not be easy to start work immediately.

Since the Chinese New Year, Beijing News has been promoting the news that Chen Shuo's new album will be released soon, and several songs have also begun to be promoted on the charts.

With his ability, he has already accumulated a large number of potential customers for this album.

In addition, this album still follows the ultra-low price strategy, with records priced at RMB 50, CDs at RMB 10, and tapes at RMB 7.

To be honest, you can’t even get a good meal in the imperial capital with 10 yuan, but how cost-effective it is to use it to buy a genuine album?

In fact, the reason why sales are so high today is because many people buy dozens or even hundreds of copies directly as if they were wholesalers.

Then take it back to your classmates, colleagues, and friends, add one or two yuan to it, and sell it.

As for scalpers, they don't want to do this.

Jingwen’s distribution channels are so great. If the quantity is small, it’s not worth it. If the quantity is large, you might as well go directly to Jingwen to get the goods and sell them.

As for piracy, the vast majority of pirates don't dare touch Jingwen's albums. The prices are too low and they can't be sold at high prices, and the crackdowns are even harsher.

And Chen Shuo's album is like a hot potato.

Maybe as soon as you make a sale, the customer and the police come to arrest you.

Then you enter the police station dejectedly, and turn around to see the client holding a genuine CD and flipping through it happily.

Someone asked, is it only 10 yuan for a CD?

People told you right away, why didn’t it happen? In other words, just by doing some errands, you can get a Chen Shuo album for free, so why not do it?

Especially this year, in order to further combat piracy, Jingwen directly prepared a large number of signed albums.

It says, "Thank you to every friend who supports the original version. You have a share of the credit for the success of this album!"

He also asked Chen Shuo to write "Glory, you and I will build it together!" and signed his name again.

For some fans, this is almost like an honor.

That night, after returning home, Liu Yifei was fine. While there was still rest for the day, Chen Shuo could be said to be exhausted.

I did a hasty performance of Wuqinxi to regain my energy, walked Lingbo Weibu again to refresh myself, took a shower and fell asleep.

Today was also the day when "Shuiyue Cave" was aired, but he didn't watch even one episode.

The next day, Chen Shuo got up and looked at the panel. The progress of Childlike Innocence reached 95%.

Moreover, the mask of childlike innocence is also constantly shining, and the expression on it is lifelike, as if it has come alive.

This made him a little worried.

Could this mask really come to life and become another face of him?

"Mask of Childlike Innocence"

Effect: mentally retarded, highly skilled in martial arts, smart and steady, chaotic and rebellious

1. Mental retardation: Your mind will be as simple as a child's, your curiosity will increase, you will not be able to distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, and you will act based on likes and dislikes.

2. Excellent martial arts: When you perform character-related martial arts actions, your stunt skill level +1.

3. Smart and steady: You have received the wisdom given by others, become wise and wise, and act calmly and steadily.

4. Chaos and rebellion: When you are affected by the Mask to a certain extent, you will suffer from cognitive confusion. "

Originally, the childlike mask created by Chen Shuo at the beginning had only three ability effects.

Later, when the filming of the sequel "Legend of the Spiritual Mirror" started, according to the plot, Tong Bo gave his wisdom to the childlike heart, thus adding another person who was smart and calm.

However, since "Water Moon Cave" and "Legend of the Spirit Mirror" were filmed together, the two abilities did not change, but coexisted.

As a result, when Chen Shuo was filming at that time, he shot "Water Moon" in one day and "Spiritual Mirror" in the same day. He relied on the Five Animals Show every morning and evening to trigger the minstrel effect, and cooperated with the Crystal Heart to wash away the influence of the character.

But now, if this mask is really activated, the two completely opposite abilities of mental insanity and intelligence and calmness will be combined with the effect of chaos and rebellion.

I'm afraid it will directly cause him cognitive confusion, and then he will probably spend the rest of his life in a mental hospital.

He originally wanted to create a mask with his four eyes, but now he was so frightened that he gave up the idea immediately.

The innocence of a child is only influenced by innateness, but these four eyes are a real evil person.

When the time comes that it has become a part of him, it will be over.

He looked at the mask effects of Sui Feng and Li Xiaoyao again. Fortunately, there was no big problem.

Chen Shuo immediately picked up his cell phone and called Shan Xiaolou.

"Sister Xiaolou, can you help me find a character who makes a mistake, becomes possessed by a demon, and then returns from the lost path?"

Although water from afar cannot quench the thirst for nearness, you still have to be prepared.

With the crystal heart, if you work hard every day, purify your soul, and keep your true heart, there shouldn't be any big problems in the early stage.

Shan Xiaolou was stunned for a moment and asked, "When?"

"Now, the sooner the better!"

"Aren't you promoting the album now? After you finish promoting the album, you will join the team to film "Sword of Immortality". How can you have time to play other roles?"

Chen Shuo didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only say: "I want to experience such a role, just help me find it first."

"Where can I find such a character for a while? We have some in our own drama, including Jiang Ming and Juggernaut from the Shushan School.

A man who killed all his sect members for the sake of a demon finally found his way back and his soul was liberated.

A person experiences the pain and joy of the world, and finally realizes that the best is like water and enters the Tao.

It’s just that the Sword Master shouldn’t meet the requirements you mentioned for making mistakes and being possessed by a demon. "

Chen Shuo perked up after hearing this. Yes, these two roles did meet his requirements.

only……

"One of these two characters is Brother Jin and the other is Brother Bo. Besides, I played Li Xiaoyao in it. If I play these two roles again, I'm afraid it will give the audience unnecessary illusions?"

"Then let me help you look for it. If it doesn't work, please ask screenwriter Yu Yue to add such a character for you in "Phantom Needle"."

When Chen Shuo thought about it, he almost forgot about his special skills.

"Sword" has various inconveniences, but its own drama is much more convenient.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Miss Xiaolou."

Mask couldn't make any waves for a while. Besides, even if it was as he thought, a secondary ability generated by an innate ability would not be able to defeat the innate ability of Crystal Heart in one go. ?

Besides, this was just the worst-case scenario he had made.

Maybe it wasn't as troublesome as he thought.

Of course, you still have to plan ahead and acquire a specialty or talent like "Return to the Lost Sea" as soon as possible to restrain the negative effects of multiple masks.

After gathering his energy, he started the next autograph session.

Two days in the imperial capital, 150,000 tickets were sold on the first day and 170,000 tickets were sold on the second day. This was just for signings.

One million albums pre-recorded by the company were immediately distributed.

Of course, this does not mean that his album will sell one million copies a day. It will take some time to sell.

But what can be predicted is that his album will definitely sell more than one million in the first week.

Next, Chen Shuo took a day off and signed for two more days in Jinkou, one day for 100,000 yuan and one day for 80,000 yuan.

Jinkou's population and consumption power are still far less than those of the imperial capital.

After five days, sales reached 500,000 just from signings.

After signing the books at these two places, Chen Shuo and Liu Yifei headed to Hengdian.

"Fairy Sword" is about to start shooting. After attending the opening ceremony, Chen Shuo will continue to go to Guangdong Province to promote, while Liu Yifei will stay for filming.

As the male and female protagonists, they can't both be here, right?

In both the Imperial Capital and Jinkou, it has been proven that Liu Yifei's singing is enough to win everyone's recognition.

Then after he finished promoting the album, he would help her write songs while filming, and then start preparing to release an album for her.
