Chapter 108 Don't Delay Your Holidays
"Okay, it's up to you." Wang Jiawei looked at the young actor who had interfered with him with disgust.
One code equals one code, since Cantonese opera masters all agree.
Then what else does he have to say.
Su Youming, whom he wanted to invite before, was euphemistically expressed by Ruan Chaohui as "I'm glad that he likes the art of opera."
It means amateur level.
Looking at the way Qian Chen and Ruan Chaohui bowed to each other, even if Wang Jiawei was blind, he had to admit that he had found a treasure.
This made him feel very happy.
"How many scenes and how much?" Qian Chen asked expectantly.
Talking about money hurts feelings, but if you don't talk about money... maybe you still want to go to waste.
"..." Wang Jiawei was speechless. Can't you just ask two questions at once?
Just asking the first one will make you feel fresher and more refined.
"I originally designed a lot of roles for the character, but now, I don't want to do so much anymore," Wang Jiawei said.
Qian Chen breathed a sigh of relief, just don't take too much.
I'm also quite embarrassed that I always make fun of you.
Xu Ke told me that filming of "Dragon Gate" is expected to start in June.
However, he had not yet finished breathing.
Just listen to Wang Jiawei say: "But I'm not sure, so no matter how much we can keep in the end, we'd better take pictures of it."
Qian Chen immediately didn't want to do it anymore.
You are a lunatic, and our family will not let you go through any trouble.
You just need to take pictures of your bag of masters, and we will act as our own factory masters, so we can be beautiful.
Seeing Qian Chen, I was furious again.
Wang Jiawei quickly added, "I'll give you 200,000 yuan for this, a fixed price. If you are willing to buy it, we will start today."
"How long will the filming take?" Qian Chen immediately swallowed his refusal.
300,000 martial arts fingers and 200,000 film salary.
This is a price of 500,000 yuan. Even Xiao Shen Yang, who is currently famous all over the country, does not have that much money.
Xiao Shen Yang is really popular.
At that time, he complained that his salary was low, not even 500,000 yuan, so he might as well take on a commercial role outside.
As a result, he was trained by his master.
What's more, Qian Chen still has 66,000 martial arts money in front of him, which adds up to 566,000.
But he's not stupid either.
Wang Jiawei is willing to pay so much money for him to play this role, who knows how he will be manipulated.
"Today is May 13th, right? It won't be more than June 13th at the latest, a month's time."
"No, it can't be later than June 1. I have to join Xu Ke's crew in June and I can't skip the show." Qian Chen said righteously.
This reason is also bad.
Wang Jiawei almost laughed out of anger, you can't block Xu Ke's drama, so you just keep pushing me back and forth, right?
"I want to be a martial artist, I want to sing for you, and I want to play this role. You can't ask for too much." Qian Chen doesn't plan to play with Wang Jiawei for too long anyway.
The benefits are not proportional to the effort.
"Okay, just before June 1st, I won't delay your holiday!" Wang Jiawei left angrily.
Qian Chen and Ruan Chaohui greeted each other and parted ways.
Before Ruan Chaohui left, he gave him all the lyrics and scores that Qian Chen would sing in the play.
He was very disappointed with Qian Chen.
In other words, it was because I had too high expectations and only felt disappointed after meeting the real person.
On the one hand, he didn't know that Qian Chen learned Cantonese opera casually when he had nothing to do.
When it comes to singing, Qian Chen's ability is somewhat difficult to live up to despite his reputation.
On the other hand, as an opera master, it is really insulting to be polite to compete with others for the benefit of the market.
After returning home, Ruan Chaohui had a phone call with an old friend from the mainland opera industry.
After the pleasantries, he got down to the topic:
"You probably don't know who I met!"
The friend asked curiously: "Have you met that gentleman?"
"Qian Chen!"
Ruan Chaohui told the story of today's experience. To be honest, he did not add any exaggeration or jealousy.
He was worried that people's words were intimidating. If Qian Chen was not a good character and tried to push him to get a higher position, then his rudeness would be magnified infinitely.
And he has his own principles, but he will not slander others.
"Haha, I really didn't expect that there would be such a chance encounter. Qian and everyone don't seem to care about these customs." The old friend over there praised Qian Chen very much.
"It seems that Mr. Qian is going to play the role of a troupe in the movie. Will he enter the entertainment industry..." Ruan Chaohui raised his concerns in a more obscure way.
"Everyone Qian is going to act in a play. This is quite unexpected." My old friend was also a little surprised.
In recent years, too many of the next generation of opera actors have given up halfway.
Dropping out of school to sell insurance or work as a real estate agent would make much easier money than singing an opera.
"Today..." Ruan Chaohui went on to talk about the bargaining between Qian Chen and Wang Jiawei, including that Qian Chen said he would join Xu Ke's crew in June.
This is clearly a rhythm that takes root in the entertainment industry.
Ruan Chaohui didn't want the mainland opera industry to take care of this kid or anything.
Rather, he is a little resentful that mainlanders call Qian Chen "everyone".
Did you call "everyone" casually?
It must have certain special contributions to the industry and be able to play an innovative role in order to be called one.
Addressing each other respectfully when meeting each other does not count.
That's called business blowback.
It is unreasonable to take out a copy of the ancestral lyrics and try to reach the top of the industry.
"Oh, I understand." The old friend over there thought for a long time before saying:
"Everyone Qian came to sing a play and didn't receive any money. He dedicated "Bamboo Chronicles" to the opera world without asking for anything in return. What surprised us even more was that he also established an opera scholarship a few days ago.
I came to help children from poor families pursue their dreams of opera. I originally thought that I was a kid from a rich family who regards money as dirt, but I didn’t expect..."
Rumble!
It was like thunder in my ears.
Ruan Chaohui was stunned and felt that he had never encountered anything so shocking in more than ten years.
He even felt ashamed.
This kind of shame even made him feel so dirty inside.
The scenes where Qian Chen was singing, bargaining with the director, and being ridiculed by the director just now appeared before his eyes.
This is not about competing for the benefit of the market. This is just a boxing mentality.
Ruan Chaohui burst into tears instantly.
"Oh, we don't even know about this. It's really hard for this kid." The old friend seemed to be choked up.
"I actually don't know, I misunderstood..." Ruan Chaohui sighed.
"Haha, that's a young man. His ideas are different from ours. It's a good thing to have such people in the opera world." The old friend quickly turned around to comfort him and said, "What did he sing today?"
Brother Chao Hui, please open your voice."
Ruan Chaohui calmed down and reproduced Qian Chen's performance today.
Of course, he is a famous Cantonese opera artist, so his singing skills are naturally much better than Qian Chen's.
After singing, the other person said in surprise:
"Can Mr. Qian still sing Cantonese opera? I thought he specialized in Kunqu opera. How is his singing?"
"He specializes in Kunqu opera?" Ruan Chaohui felt even more ashamed.
She avoided her strengths and focused on her shortcomings, taking care of herself and singing Cantonese opera, but I actually felt that her abilities were not good enough.
Now that I think about it, when Qian Chen sang in Cantonese opera, he showed his profound skills in both singing skills and singing techniques.
"Yes, if we have a chance, we will invite Qian and everyone to perform on stage again. Brother Chaohui, you must come when the time comes."
