What is the true meaning of success
Success is ninety-nine percent accumulation of strength, plus one percent opportunity favoring.
If you have not prepared for a long time and enriched yourself, then when the opportunity of success comes, you will not be able to seize it... This principle tells us that people should work hard on a down-to-earth basis, and cannot just daydream and hope that the sky will fall .
However, there is another kind of person who obviously has ninety-ninety-ninety-nine years of strength accumulation, or even more than ninety-ninety-nine savings, but the "one percent" that only needs a small opportunity to make him soar into the sky is Can't live or die...
This situation also tells us a more important thing, that is, people are not as good as heaven.
Luo Che belonged to the latter kind of hard-pressed people.
In terms of professionalism, flexibility, and accumulation of experience... Anyway, no matter how you look at it, Luo Che's accumulation of qualities as a manager is by no means inferior to that of his future wife.
But it happened that Ou Qianru was lucky enough to bring out a few big names as soon as she entered the industry, and she was promoted step by step, and successfully became a celebrity agent by jumping several levels.
On the other hand, Luo Che didn't get ahead no matter how he led others, his luck was not good, and his destiny was unlucky-either he couldn't meet a good film contract, or the artist had an accident and wanted to change jobs or have a scandal.
It was so easy to get a slightly pink one, and he was suspicious by nature. He was afraid that Luo Che, an outsider, would use his name to do something outside, so he quickly kicked Luo Che away as soon as he emerged, and took the agent's salary subsidized by the company. Open it to my mother.
...So after tossing back and forth until now, Luo Che can only be a small assistant all the time, with almost no signature artists in his hands.
If it is said that managers are no better than celebrities, and there are not many people who are in the early stage, Luo Che's resume is not particularly miserable, but he can't help but have a fierce girlfriend next to him for comparison. Putting the income and status of the two together, the man's self-esteem was seriously hurt.
Ou Qianru was also heartbroken, so she asked her husband to come over and be a husband and wife with her and bring the artist together, the artist has no objection. But Luo Che couldn't think about it himself.
The relationship between the two was stable, and Ou Qianru couldn't bear to see Luo Che continue to hang around so hungry, so helping the other party find artists was more important than digging for herself, and finally found a cousin who fell from the sky. Hurry up and plug it in. In particular, it is stated that this is a future rising star named by director Zhou, not to mention my own family, the key is that there is still a future...
When Ye Shuang arrived at the Yuntian clubhouse, he didn't find any bulletin boards. It was probably because the cast of auditions here was not large, and it was not at the level where director Zhou's new play would have hundreds of people vying for the extras, so it didn't attract the attention of the clubhouse.
According to some industry events that Ou Qianru casually mentioned before, this kind of small production team probably only has one floor, and a few companies are notified to bring some small artists over to pick and choose. After all, there are so many films filmed every year, it is still uncertain whether it will be released, and it is still unknown whether the box office will come back after it is released. So it is impossible for any crew to attract wide attention.
Approaching the reception desk on the first floor, Ye Shuang smiled at the warm-eyed receptionist, and casually asked the information she had heard from Luo Che: "Where is the interview for the xx crew?"
"The third floor." The receptionist had to look down at the records before he found the answer, and smiled sweetly: "Do you need me to take you there?"
"No thanks."
Refusing the receptionist's kindness, Ye Shuang went up by herself. When I arrived at the scene on the third floor, I saw that this place was simply a grass-roots team.
The entire private room on the third floor was filled with people in groups of three or five, and there was only a small space in the center, and then the interviewees just walked up to perform under the crowd's spectators... There was not even a separate cubicle, if it wasn't for Ye Shuang Knowing that this is a production talk, I suddenly thought it was an amateur drama club engaging in exchange activities.
There was a person standing at the door yawning with nothing to do, as if he was completely uninterested in the performance in the private room. But as soon as Ye Shuang appeared, the person's eyes lit up, and he stood up straight and wrote neatly: "What role are you auditioning for? I think it's good for you to try the supporting actor. Although you have already decided on one, you can change it."
"Sorry, I don't audition for roles." Ye Shuang chuckled.
Just rely on this level of reception. It made it difficult for her to have confidence in the crew inside. Director Zhou used himself because of the character's needs, and although it was important, it was just a secondary role in terms of role. This kind of person dared to let her try the male supporting role... Even if this person is not the director of the crew, but at least it represents the director's casting part of the attitude.
"Why are you here without an audition?!" The person at the door frowned, and his attitude changed instantly: "We are a serious crew here. We are not interviewing tabloid reporters like you!"
"... I don't interview either." Ye Shuang said patiently, "I'm here to find someone."
The person at the door looked Ye Shuang up and down, and after thinking about it, he tore up a number and stuffed it in: "Take it and go in!"
Ye Shuang was simply baffled, anyway, it didn't matter how much she could get in, she assumed that she had received a ticket, so she finally walked into the private room.
The people who have already sat around inside are all small and transparent in various companies, and the most famous ones are just small supporting roles. There was news that they were casting, and these people were dragged out by their agents in groups. If you were lucky, you would get a character with a few lines. Yes, even if there are job-hopping who can't bear it, there will be new recruits soon.
It is conceivable that the intimacy between these artists and their current managers is not too high. Even if there are one or two who are a bit of a mix-up, the company will allocate resources to match other personal managers when they reach a higher level. Artists All achievements have nothing to do with the original agent.
Luo Che has become an assistant manager from a personal manager, and it will not happen overnight if he wants to climb back, unless he has a good eye for talents and happens to have a good relationship with a certain future potential stock among a dozen or twenty people.
But judging from the current situation, the probability of this possibility is really not high.
"Roger."
After Ye Shuang searched around in the crowd, she soon found Luo Che who was sitting alone in a corner with a young man.
Walking over to say hello, Ye Shuang sat down next to the two of them without seeing anything, then took off his sunglasses and reached out to introduce himself: "I'm Ye Shuang. It just so happened that the crew was fine, so I just came over."
Brother Shuang's face really attracted hatred wherever he put it, and when he took off his sunglasses, he looked up and noticed that the artists here had already started gnashing their teeth.
Although it is obviously impossible for the supporting role in today's interview to have such a high configuration, but there is no reason to hate the handsome guy.
"Ye Shuang?!" Luo Che was also surprised, but soon came back to his senses and smiled apologetically: "I thought I'd go to find you after this end... Well, wait for me if you don't mind? It's over."
I knew that my future cousin's husband and cousin would have exactly the same name, but I still can't get used to it so suddenly.
Besides, just looking at Brother Shuang's appearance is enough to amaze Luo Che. He has seen it in advertisements, and Ou Qianru also strongly recommends it, but the impression of any preparation is not as shocking as being face to face at a close distance... Such a person, at all It can be red without a belt.
Ye Shuang spread his hands in a casual gesture, and Luo Che then turned to pay attention to the artist who was performing in the middle again, while the eyes of the one he brought lit up, and he came over with a shy smile: "Brother, are you filming the ark real estate commercial?" the one from
The advertisement of Ark Real Estate is about to become a miracle in the industry. Just one advertisement became popular on the Internet overnight, and then he was named and recruited by Zhou Dao... This kind of luck can't be more unlucky.
Ye Shuang looked at Luo Che and then at this guy, stretched out his hand and smiled, "Hi, I'm a relative of Brother Luo, you can call me Xiaoye."
The young man didn't have any objections yet, so Luo Che struggled first: "... Let's call him Brother Ye, he just graduated, and even my cousin is older than him."
"..." Ye Shuang, who seemed to be pretending to be tender, was depressed: "Then brother Ye."
The young man also hurriedly introduced himself, and then the two shook hands as they knew each other. Ye Shuang watched the middleman perform for a while, and felt more and more uncomfortable as he watched, and finally couldn't help pulling Luo Che to lower his voice: "Brother Luo, don't blame me for talking too much, even though I I'm an outsider, but I can tell that this crew seems a little... unreliable?!"
Luo Che hurriedly glanced at the young man he had brought, and turned around when he realized that the other party was not paying attention, and smiled wryly in a low voice: "It's more than unreliable... This is a romantic literary film in which a big boss wants to praise himself as his daughter. The big boss plays the male lead himself, beats the wretched male supporting role, kicks the shameless second female lead, and finally gets married with his goddaughter's lover... What do you think the leading role in this plot can produce a good movie?"
"Then you're still here?" Ye Shuang was puzzled.
"No way, the people I lead haven't had any film appointments, and the company will cut more resources, and they themselves need film salaries to survive. To put it bluntly, this is for performance... It is because the grade is low that it is easy to get mixed up with the role, otherwise There is no place for a good film to be a newcomer." Luo Che smiled helplessly: "If you have no connections, you can only make bad movies, and the more you make bad movies, the more you will have no connections... Unless you are lucky enough to sneak into a big crew, but think about it for yourself. How many characters can you remember in this novel?!"
The red stars go to the leading roles, and the second-tier ones go to the supporting roles. Basically, even the characters with more lines have a lot of votes.
With Luo Che's resources, only from the role list issued by the company can he have a chance to pick a small supporting role with lines. The problem is that there are so many people in the company, and you have no bright spots in your resume, and no one is willing to give you resources.
That's why he said that he was here to check his performance. No matter whether it is a good movie or a bad movie, at least there must be "experience" to fill in it.
