Chapter 0160 These young people want to be actors

"All these are people who want to be actors?" He and Wan Xinglong walked on the campus of Longguo Drama Academy. Looking at the crowded people queuing outside the school, some holding signs, some dressed strangely, and some shouted loudly when they saw people. Cui Ning was a little surprised.

"This is only a small part, they are all extras. They cost at least 20 yuan a day, and they are not enough for rent or meals." Wan Xinglong looked at the crowd lined up like the Dragon Country Spring Festival travel rush, and also sighed:

"Many people dream of becoming famous and becoming superstars. Many people have been acting as extras for many years, living in the basement or outside the Fifth Ring Road just for an opportunity."

"Then this time we meet the great director, Zhang Yimo, but the international director, what's wrong?" Cui Ning was still puzzled.

"I invested in their movies and came to choose actors," Wan Xinglong replied.

"Yes, investing in entertainment is your general direction. Didn't Zhang Yimo cooperate with Gong Lili? He won so many big prizes"

"I've separated. Gong Lili wants to marry Zhang Yimo, but Director Zhang's attitude towards marriage is a bit ambiguous and has never promised Gong Lili, so Gong Lili has reached a different point, annoyed the director. The two will not cooperate in the near future. This is the entertainment industry, and they are used to it." Wan Xinglong is not surprised.

Cui Ning has always had a calm personality, so she doesn't regard this matter as much news. "What kind of actor should I choose this time?"

"Pure, preferably one who is seventeen or eighteen years old, the kind with a mountain and wild atmosphere. Of course, I heard several people secretly say that it is best to smile like Gong Lili."

"Then I can't forget it. Why didn't I marry her?" Cui Ning was puzzled. "The thing that everyone was happy, but it turned out like this."

"You haven't had a relationship yet, so you don't have the right to speak." Wan Xinglong smiled. "I guess I'll be troubled by you these days, because the movie wants you to participate in the promotion, so I'll take you out and see it. There are beautiful and handsome guys everywhere."

"I'm not interested in beautiful and handsome guys." Cui Ning thought for a while, "but I'm interested in movie promotion and even commercial implantation, this is my job."

"There are opportunities, the key is to get to know the people in the circle first," Wan Xinglong replied.

"Two leaders? Are you directors or producers? I came from Shaolin Temple. My name is Wang Baoqian. I know martial arts." At this time, a teenage boy ran over and showed his big white teeth to Cui Ning and Wan Xinglong. The Mandarin also had a Jizhou dialect smell. As he spoke, he came directly with a character horse with a higher difficulty coefficient, and then sent his photos to Cui Ning and Wan Xinglong one by one.

"Good Kung Fu" Wan Xinglong smiled "How old are you?"

"I am 15 years old. Don't look at me as young as I'm young. I have practiced kung fu in Shaolin Temple for seven years. Then I just went down the mountain and prepared to be an actor. My idol is Liu Zehua. I want to become a king." Wang Baoqian was very excited to promote himself.

"Just insist on being yourself, you will definitely succeed." Wan Xinglong looked at Wang Baoqian carefully and felt his powerful energy:

"Don't change your temperament in the entertainment industry, don't play others, but in fact, it's more about showing your inner self. Remember one thing, stupid people have good luck."

"I'm not stupid, hehe, I've been in the mountains for a long time, and I've gotten used to it." Wang Baoqian continued to say loudly, "I remember that extras who need kung fu are looking for me."

He got rid of several extras, including one who was not suitable for being an actor with a good appearance, and had a Green Island Mandarin. He was also Cui Ning's fellow villager. He was named Huang Bo. He enthusiastically promoted himself and said that he could sing and dance.

However, Cui Ning and Wan Xinglong did not have time to watch Huang Bo's dance, which disappointed Huang Bo a little, hoping that he would definitely find him to act if he had the chance.

There is also a girl who looks like the little swallow in the most popular TV series "The Princess of the Qing Dynasty". She also has big eyes and says that she only needs one opportunity.

"By the way, "The Princess of the Qing Dynasty" has been released on Wandao. It is said that the reaction is pretty good. It should be released in mainland China in the second half of the year. Didn't you say that those actors, Zhao Weiwei, Lin Xinran, and Fan Beibei will become popular? I'm going to talk to them and see what they have signed," said Wan Xinglong.

"It should be a big fire. Although it was caused by the yin energy entering the body and was frightened, it was the yin energy of the palace after all, and its energy was not small. In fact, there was energy in my words. All the words added up to be equal to a formation. The entire crew was later equivalent to filming in my formation, and the energy blessing was definitely not small. Cui Ning smiled, "And their crew was really attentive and worked very hard."

"Everything you need to persist, but the key is still internal strength," said Wan Xinglong. "Although I don't know how to meet each other, I think that boy named Wang Bao is a little interesting. The man named Huang Bo probably has to take some detours in this circle."

"A person should not behave like a person. In addition to his own quality, he also has luck. There is an old saying in our country. No one knows which cloud is raining. Many times he must work harder." Cui Ning looked at the crowd in Wuyang and Wuyang. "Where should the big director choose the role?"

"Just in front." Wan Xinglong took Cui Ning and turned to a two-story building that looked like an auditorium. "We're here too early. Director Zhang Da hasn't arrived yet, so I'll just wait for a while here."

Walking into the auditorium, several staff members were decorating simple microphones and tables, as well as some printed scripts, etc. "What are you doing? The auditorium is not open to the public today, and there are internal activities."

"We are Director Zhang's friends and investors, and we are here to participate in this event together," Wan Xinglong replied.

"Investors, you know, just sit there. Today's event will start later, and then the students are all in class. It is estimated that the class will be over in more than ten minutes. There will probably be many people at that time. After all, they are big directors. We have not notified the off-campus. If the off-campus or the extras know, it will probably be even more lively," said a staff member.

"It's okay, you guys are busy with yours, let's wait here for a while." Wan Xinglong and Cui Ning sat in the front row of the auditorium, lowered their voices and whispered:

"I have just told Wang Bao that Director Zhang has come to choose a role. With his personality, it is estimated that the extras have spread all over the place. Let's see how they come in a while."

"You are worried that few people will come, but you still like to watch the fun." Cui Ning was also a little surprised.

"You are not an investor, so you don't have professional habits. Do you know what the best investment is?" Wan Xinglong asked back.

"What you are talking about... preparing to invest in future stars?" Cui Ning quickly understood.

"Absolutely, I'm going to set up an entertainment company to invest in newcomers. You also know that the annual income of a Hollywood superstar is a terrifying number, and compared with other products, it's almost all profits. After all, I'm still an investor and a businessman.

And the stars in our country really do not have so-called international superstars, and their income cannot be compared with those of international big names. However, I think the distance will be closer. With the rapid development of the economy, the entertainment industry will explode. Investors are the investment with the greatest return. Lu Buwei is an example." Wan Xinglong made a joke in the end.

"Your example is so weird, but I agree with it. Many celebrities themselves are people with a sense of mission and an important part of the business chain. Moreover, a superstar has a lot of energy, such as the advertisements I have been filming recently, all of them are looking for superstars. However, the advertising fee for Phoenix Coke is actually given to workers. The TV station received instructions from senior executives, which was also what Mr. Jiang said. To hype up Phoenix Coke, it is equivalent to giving thousands of employees a settlement fee and a pension, which is also a merit.

At that time, I will also make some investments in your entertainment company, and then we can secretly choose different people to invest and operate, and see who has a correct vision." Cui Ning was also interested.

Wan Xinglong agreed very much: "This idea is good, and we can start from today. I believe that many newcomers are willing to sign a contract with an entertainment company with investment background. After all, we are financial supporters and there are many opportunities."

"The key is to be responsible for each other. We cannot sign contracts just for the sake of signing contracts. We need to have a long-term plan. This is the same as starting a business. It seems that I have to study this industry," Cui Ning mused. "What new movie is Director Zhang Da going to make this time?"

"The era drama, which writes stories about two generations, mainly about the previous generation, their father and mother's love. I read the script, which is very contemporary, but the important thing is Director Zhang's grasp of color and era, which I am optimistic about."

"I like to watch movies, but I still watch more classic movies. I know very few domestic directors. This has something to do with the few cinemas and the viewing environment," Cui Ning said.

"The Oumei model is worth learning from, such as the theater model and the broker system. The new century should also be the beginning of a new era of entertainment, so we must act early. The most important thing for investors is vision and action." Wan Xinglong is very confident. "I am a genius when doing investment."

"In fact, the best way is to invest in movies by well-known domestic directors first. This is not a risk, but a basic fact. At present, the audience recognizes these directors and their movies. For example, director Feng Xiaoguang some time ago, I want to invest in his New Year dramas." Cui Ning talked about his point of view from outside investment.

The two chatted and unconsciously decided to set up an entertainment company together and sign contracts to package new people, not just investment companies.

One is good at investing and the other is an expert in the brand industry. The inevitable result of strong combination is that the company will start very high, and the requirements for artists will naturally be high, and the expectations will be high. However, both of them are full of confidence in this industry.

As he was talking, there were constant noise and footsteps outside the auditorium.

"It's just here, Jin Dong, you're so old, the director will definitely not choose you."

"I said Deng Chao, you are a madman who is acting in a drama, why are you here to join in the fun? And Liu Ye, aren't you just two years younger than me and I three years older than me? From the outside, it's okay if we don't have an age difference?"
