I'm just an actor

Chapter 82 Scenes
In 1981, under the bright summer sun in Beijing, a young man with a bare back and a towel hanging around his neck, with his head buried and his bare feet pedaling a flat-bed tricycle, rushed towards the Xisi Post Office. , the blazing sun hit his dark skin, squeezed out layer after layer of sweat, condensed into drops, when the flatbed truck passed a hurdle, his body was shaken, sweat beads fell to the ground, and shattered into several petals .

He failed the college entrance examination and had to work as a temporary worker in a publishing house. He had to pedal a tricycle to deliver books to the Xisi Post Office twice a day from the publishing house, to the railway station once every two days, and then every day. During worship, I have to ride a bicycle from Baita Temple to Baijiazhuang Printing Factory to deliver books.

Because the weather was too hot, he had to take off his shoes and hang them on the car, and pedaled barefoot, so that the soles of his feet would sweat less, and he would not feel so uncomfortable when pedaling.

In a flash, 26 years have passed.

In that year, Liu Yanming, who was pedaling with his head down, did not expect that only four years later, at the age of 22, he would be promoted to the director of the editorial department of the publishing house, and would come into contact with the most senior leaders in this vast land from time to time. people.

He never thought that eight years later, he would resign from his post as the production director of the art department of Beijing TV Station and choose to go overseas.

He never imagined that 26 years later, he would start with advertising and create a media empire.

At that time, he always believed that hard work could create everything, because after going to sea, after the company was founded, it was because of him that he pedaled his bicycle all over the street and begged his grandpa and grandma to pedal him.

But later, he realized that hard work cannot create everything, so there is the eye-catching slogan "wisdom creates value" after entering Hairun Building today.

He once thought that he could jump up straight, because in the past, when he was the director of a publishing house, he had seen many big people in the world. sentence.

But when he actually went into the sea, he found that it was not, because once he met a client, he entered someone else’s house, but was kicked out because of dirty shoes. Although he was still him, he was not the one who could often meet with the leader to report on work The director of the publishing house, but just a self-employed person, has to learn to bend down to do things.

He also thought that "Bright Sword" was just a new level of icing on the cake for Hairun, but now that he was deeply involved in the vortex of main dramas and mother-in-law dramas, he suddenly discovered that it was actually the pinnacle of the company.

Two years ago, the fellow Huayi warrior broke his wrist, left behind his burden Wang Jinghua, traveled lightly, embraced capital, and started anew.

At the beginning, he thought that Huayi's reform methods were too drastic, but because Huayi's artists left in a collapsed way, he had some ideas and took some gentle actions to avoid repeating the same mistakes.

Afterwards, "The Promise" and "The Golden Armor in the City" were released, famous directors Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige encountered Waterloo, and at the same time, the leading male artist Liu Ye who wanted to make a comeback fell from the altar, prompting him to start thinking about Huayi again. Feasibility of choice.

Last year, Fan Bingbing established a studio and became the first artist to eat crabs. He opened a new model of artist studio operation, maximized his personal brand and skyrocketed commercial value, which verified the feasibility of this operation model and became his The last piece of weight that swings the balance in my heart.

The wolf is really coming.

Hairun must reform, go public, and grow bigger and stronger. This is the consensus reached by the founder team.

It is imperative to scrape the bone to heal the wound.

At the same time, Hairun needs to develop business segments, more excellent artists and more powerful managers, instead of the nanny-type brokerage company like a small workshop.

Therefore, he abandoned Chang Jihong and used Guo Si, who had little control over the brokerage company.

In terms of artists, Liu Ye, who is already depressed, is not his target, but Sun Li's boyfriend Green Tea is.

However, Hairun's gap in the film market is not attractive at all. At the beginning of the month, Green Tea joined Huayi and became the second brother of Huayi.

It made him a little sad.

Yesterday, the brokerage company submitted an application, and Xu Rong wanted to borrow 3000 million.

The reason is to buy a house.

He didn't think this was the real reason, the timing was too subtle, at the moment when he was looking to expand the artist team, and at the moment when the company was actively seeking transformation, Xu Rong used a reason that everyone seemed far-fetched to send out a message that belonged to him. the sound of.

The young man used this to remind him, and at the same time weigh his position in his heart.

He doesn't argue or quarrel, but he understands that this is the tacit understanding of smart people.

When Xu Qing recommended this young man to him, he didn't pay much attention to him, a young man who hadn't even received professional training, and when Xu Qing recommended him, he didn't hide it from him, he just felt pitiful and gave him a chance.

At that time, he didn't even ask for his name, and casually threw it to Chang Jihong.

The first time I had an impression of Xu Rong was at the annual meeting the year before last, but then I gradually forgot about it.

He knew exactly how the brand collapsed back then, even if Xu Rong didn't help him, someone would help him up. The stories of Shang Yang standing up to win his trust and King Yan Zhao's daughter buying a horse bone are too old-fashioned and too familiar.

But it works really well.

New wine in old bottles, although the gameplay has changed, but the hearts of people have never changed.

The effect was also as expected. Most of the middle- and lower-level artists chose to sign with the company after the contract with Chang Jihong expired.

This is Wang Jinghua's departure, the enlightenment brought to him, and then the gentle method adopted.

Until this year, this young man who was still a student gave him a surprise, and he became an instant hit, filling the gap of Liu Ye's decadent appearance as an actor.

A loan of 3000 million yuan is not a small amount. He has to meet this young man.

Wisdom creates value, without wisdom there is no future.

3000 million, let him see the wisdom of this young man, but wisdom alone is not enough.

When he arrived at the set, he saw his company's current No. [-] brother from a distance, talking to Xu Qing with a sincere look.

This surprised him very much. He had vaguely heard about Xu Qing's family background.

But Xu Rong has a girlfriend after all.

This is not what he cares about. Personal life is all about details, which cannot affect the overall situation.

"Ms. Xu, Mr. Xu, the chairman is here to see you."

When a tall, thin young man with short hair called him, Xu Rong was surprised, but when he saw the chubby middle-aged man with long hair behind him, he was stunned.

After dazed for a moment, Xu Rong hurriedly stood up and said with a smile, "Chairman, why are you here?"

A smart person, Liu Yanming took the lead in defining him. Yesterday he deliberately hinted at himself with 3000 million yuan, but today he looks like nothing happened at all. His wisdom is beyond the wisdom of this age group.

Liu Yanming smiled and said: "Our pillars are working hard outside, so I'm here to reward you, shouldn't it be right?"

He turned his head and said to Xu Qing, "Teacher Xu, my condolences."

Xu Rong couldn't say that he shouldn't, and he couldn't say that he should, so he could only say, "Thank you, Chairman, for your concern."

Aunt Xu said "thank you" and stopped talking. She had just finished crying. Director Jiang Wei originally planned to let her go back to rest, but she refused, and the filming was not over yet.

Xu Rong glanced at Aunt Xu who obviously didn't want to talk, and said, "Chairman, let's go talk?"

"Row."

"Is the filming going well?"

Xu Rong looked at Liu Yanming's kind face, hesitated for a while, then nodded, and said, "It's okay."

After often following Hong's "harmony" confrontation, he is no longer very interested in harmony.

As for the shooting, in his opinion, it was not going well. The dedication of the entire film crew was too low, even though it was still in the running-in period.

"It's okay, but it's not, haha." Liu Yanming laughed twice, although she didn't quite understand what he meant, she still said, "Call me if you need anything, if I'm busy, you can tell me Zhang said, let him convey it to me."

He said and pointed to the young man wearing glasses who was always smiling.

The young man smiled and said, "Teacher Xu, just call me Xiao Zhang."

"Well, thank you, Chairman, it's just that you don't find it troublesome when the time comes."

"Haha, if it can be solved, it's not troublesome." Liu Yanming smiled and watched Xu Rong take the two business cards that Xiao Zhang handed over, "How do you plan your future?"

Xu Rong was stunned for a moment, wondering in his heart, Liu Yanming came here to ask himself this question, right?
But this question was too simple, he thought about it for a moment, and said: "Of course I want to film well, I won't do anything else."

"Well, you have a good idea."

Liu Yanming didn't stay for too long, after saying hello to Xu Qing, he left by car.

But when the person arrives, so does the attitude.

After getting in the car, Liu Yanming thought for a while, and asked the secretary sitting in the co-pilot: "Xiao Zhang, what do you think?"

His secretary turned his head and smiled, and said: "Chairman, I'm not very good at judging, but there are a few things that I think are quite interesting. Let me report to you. The first one is that Xu Rong is an orphan. After college, I followed people from the same village to work on construction sites in Kyrgyzstan, and thus stepped into the profession of actors."

"The second thing, in order to win the role of the Ming Dynasty, he stood at the door of Liu Heping's garage for seven days."

"The third thing, after becoming popular this year, except for a week's commercial performance due to the arrangement of the previous vice president, I never accepted a commercial contract again."

Chang Jihong is still the vice president of the brokerage company. He is on the same level as Guo Si in terms of position, but he lacks Guo Si's "hosting work" note.

"In addition, there are two other things. One is that when Xu Rong was caught in a storm of false testimony a few months ago, I heard from Vice President Zhao that someone acted earlier than us and settled the matter in advance. The other is that At that time, many actors spoke for him."

He seems to be very familiar with Xu Rong, family situation, growth experience, one by one, without any hesitation, it seems that everything has been prepared long ago, just waiting for Liu Yanming to ask.

But he didn't give any tendentious comments, but just stated the facts, but everything he picked out seemed to be carefully selected, highlighting a very critical feature of Xu Rong.

Liu Yanming nodded while listening, and at the end, he shook his head with a smile and said, "Guo Si is also incompetent. She watched Xu Rong grow up, and she couldn't hold him back."

This is one of the five things that he is not satisfied with. Once Chang Jihong retired, Xu Rong didn't even accept commercial performances. It was not about the matter itself, but the master-slave relationship between Xu Rong and Guo Si behind this matter.

Secretary Xiao Zhang explained: "Xu Rong is the only one she can take out."

Liu Yan said "Well", thought for a while, and said, "Let her also be directly responsible for Sun Li."

"Ok."

The secretary paused before asking, "Leader, did you see that 3000 million loan application?"

"Half."

The secretary froze for a moment, thought for a while, understood, nodded and said, "Okay."

Giving half is also showing your attitude, giving half is support, and keeping the other half is beating.

Xu Rongneng is a smart person who made this request. When he gets the money, he will naturally understand the group's attitude.

Liu Yanming looked at the Phoenix trees speeding past outside the car, and sighed: "There are many smart people in this world, and there are more people who are not smart but think they are smart, but today I met a different person, who is smart but puts himself Be a fool."

"Sure, Mr. Xu, the boss came to visit the class in person. This treatment is decent enough." Zhou Yiwei joked as he looked at Xu Rong who had been in deep thought since Liu Yanming left.

Xu Rong gave a wry smile, turned his head, and said to Xu Xing: "Hurry up and ask Mr. Zhou for advice. Mr. Zhou took a break after a while."

The smile on Zhou Yiwei's face froze immediately, he glanced at the dazed Xu Xing, and said, "Can I make it while resting?"

Intuit is not a thing.

Zhou Yiwei never expected that Xu Rong stopped, but it didn't work out. His assistant was also a student of the school. First, he didn't know her very well. Second, because of Xu Rong's sake, if someone asked him, he really It is not easy to refuse.

But he is afraid, after all, she is Xu Rong's biological sister, who knows if it is a virtue?
The arrival of Liu Yanming, Xu Rong was surprised, but not surprised, after all, he became popular.

But he still couldn't help but think of the situation at the annual meeting the year before last, when he was sitting in a corner, and Liu Yan's name was all the attention, the intersection between him and him was only after he finished speaking, he clapped hard.

At that time, he never thought that only two years later, Liu Yan would come to visit him specially.

The reason is very simple, he is red.

But this is only a superficial reason. What he was thinking about was why there was such a sharp contrast in only two years.

The first point is naturally the addition of the system, which forcibly raised the upper limit of his acting skills.

However, there are too many outrageous graduates whose upper limit is higher than his every year, and some of them don’t even lack resources at all. Various variety shows, magazines, TV and movie appointments are almost never broken, and they can’t wait to break them in half in a minute.

He recalled the past, the scenes of smearing mud on his face outside the shed, the scenes of waiting outside the garage, and the scenes of chasing the school teacher to run in the corridor flashed in his mind
In the late summer two years ago, in the hotel of "The Wind and Cloud of the Qing Dynasty", with the script in hand, he accepted his position as a group performer, accepted his ordinaryness and ordinaryness, and even wanted to get a role like Fulin's, which was not much proud of the role.

Just like him in Chen Dong's eyes.

In his own world, he is the eternal protagonist, no matter how dazzling others are.

In other people's worlds, he is an eternal supporting role, no matter how legendary his experience is.

But at the same time, it was also at that time that he was not willing to be ordinary, but chose to believe that there must be a way out if his business ability improved. After recognizing the truth of life, he still chose to keep believing and loving.

and bent down.

Gather up and get ready to jump.

Because if you keep your waist straight, you won't be able to jump up.

"It's already off work, what are you thinking about, so fascinated?" Zhou Yiwei kicked him and asked a little bored.

Xu Rong smiled and said: "It's okay, I remembered the good times in school."

Zhou Yiwei was silent for a long time before he whispered: "They made an appointment to play Werewolf tonight."

Xu Rong had noticed a long time ago that the director Jiang Wei would also participate, and he even called him just now.

He refused.

Zhu Hong didn't know how to do it, so he didn't see anything wrong. Originally, Aunt Xu should have told him about this phenomenon. The two of them knew each other.

But Aunt Xu went back to the hotel to rest after filming. Except for being able to cheer up during filming, she was indifferent to everything else at other times.

The disadvantages of capital blindness began to appear. Zhu Hong and Jiang Wei were originally friends, but in this business, the director only cheated on acquaintances, because those who were not acquainted would not get paid.

Xu Rong looked at Zhou Yiwei and asked with a smile, "Why didn't you go?"

"I just feel like we're wasting time." Zhou Yiwei shook his head and said, "Let's talk to the producer later when we're free?"

"Row."

Xu Rong and Zhou Yiwei's plan to have a chat with Zhu Hong was interrupted by another incident.

Back at the hotel, just as he was taking off his makeup, a series of hasty knocks came from outside the door.

"What's the matter?" Looking at Aunt Xu's little assistant outside the door, he asked suspiciously.

The little girl blushed, and said: "Mr. Xu, sister has been drinking and hasn't even eaten. I can't help it. Go and persuade her."

Xu Rong couldn't help frowning. Although Aunt Xu didn't announce tomorrow, she can't play like this. She didn't eat much today.

Suddenly, he wrinkled his nose, smelled the smell of wine on the little girl, and asked, "Have you drank too?"

"Sister, she insisted on letting me drink."

"Okay, I'll be there right away."

He took off his makeup and pushed open the door of Aunt Xu's room, and a pungent smell of alcohol came over his face.

In the room, Aunt Xu was sitting barefoot on the carpet, holding a half-empty white wine bottle in her hand, leaning on the arm of the sofa, seeing him coming in, she smiled: "Come, have a drink with me."

Aunt Xu's face was reddish, but her voice was clear, and she didn't look like she had drunk too much.

Xu Rong swallowed quietly.

It's not that Aunt Xu's appearance is so charming at this time, he is just simply afraid.

If he drank so much, he would vomit early.

"Sister, stop drinking, body."

"Shut up, drink as soon as you drink, and go out if you don't drink." At this time, Aunt Xu was no longer as gentle as before, and she was mostly pretending lazily.

Xu Rong looked at her for a few seconds, nodded, and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

"Go and call Xu Xing over here." Xu Rong whispered to Aunt Xu's assistant behind her.

He was really afraid that he would not be able to go back.

"boom."

Aunt Xu opened a bottle for him neatly, and went straight to him.

Aunt Xu was indeed not drunk, and her hands were steady.

As a person who has experienced drunkenness many times, Xu Rong knows the state of being drunk too well. He himself is fine, but the whole world always goes wrong at that time, Lao Huang.

"After filming this film, I will stop filming." Aunt Xu sighed, "Grandma used to like to watch my films, and I also liked to film films for her, but since no one will watch them, there is no need to film. .”

"Alright, take a rest." Xu Rong looked at the wine bottle and pursed his lips.

"Look at your cowardly appearance, you really don't look like a man."

"I'm not good at this."

"Shut up and drink."

Xu Rong glanced at Xu Xing and Aunt Xu's assistant who were standing at the door, feeling relieved, he hesitated for a while, thinking whether to call Zhou Yiwei over, but considering that he was not familiar with Aunt Xu, This thought was suppressed again.

He was ready to go out sideways.

It's easy to get drunk when you drink, and it's easy to get drunk quickly when you drink too much.

The only good thing is that waking up is not that hard.

But delay things.

This was the first time he drank himself unconscious during the filming of the film crew, but Aunt Xu was about to leave the industry, so let's take it as a farewell.

Thinking of Aunt Xu's stunned expression before collapsing to the ground yesterday, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

Some people are inherently better than themselves in certain aspects, and this is something that cannot be helped.

But it's okay, it's all side effects, as long as the scene survives.

Although his drinking capacity is slack, he can count the last few drinks. Although he didn't drink much, he drank all the scenes he should have.

But it's not a good thing to think about it. Sun Li's boyfriend, NG, invited people to drink green tea every day when he was filming, so the reputation of "green tea brother" spread like wildfire.

Maybe one day, there will be too many wine tables for Xu Rong, and it's hard to guarantee that he won't have the nickname of "Brother Scene".
