Chapter 192 Unwilling to see the decline of genius
Geng Hao sat there with his right hand on the car window, cigarette ashes burning, he looked at himself in the rearview mirror and smiled: "Shit genius, the world does not lack genius, what it lacks is understanding people, what do you think I have?"
?I still pretend to be arrogant and think that I am very capable and awesome. The world revolves around me and I can control my own destiny.
What is reality? I have the guts to say NO, have the guts to not compromise and follow my own path, but the consequence is that no one is willing to even go to R to film a romantic movie. This is the first time I know about bans and hiding.
It turned out to be so close to me.
In just a short moment, I lost everything. No one approached me for filming or contacting me. I was unwilling to just go back to my hometown. To put it bluntly, I didn't dare to go back because I was afraid of embarrassing my parents.
After all, when I went to school to entertain guests, I invited dozens of tables of relatives and friends. It was the most glorious moment for my parents.
I just want to make a living now. I found out that apart from being interested in movies, I can’t do anything. The most embarrassing thing is that people won’t let you do anything. The Han family is the largest entertainment company in Chinese, so
The connections are so powerful that I could never imagine.
There are people in every aspect. I went to open a food stall that opened after twelve o'clock in the morning and lasted until five o'clock in the morning. I haven't been allowed to do it even after two weeks. What can I do?
Sorry to bother you, it's because I wasn't honest enough and didn't tell you clearly about these things. I deliberately concealed them. When I have money, I will definitely return this hundred yuan to you. It may not be possible in the next few years, but I
Life is tough, maybe if I live a long time, people will stop paying attention to me.
The saddest thing in this world is that people don't even give you a chance to apologize or kneel down and lick you. If I can, I will kowtow to the other person a few times to make him forgive me. I will be honest and obedient, not resist, not refuse, and give you a way to survive.
Bar."
"Are you just accepting your fate?" Chen Shi picked up a cigarette and lit it.
"Otherwise?" Geng Hao threw the cigarette butt out and exhaled, "I guess it's hard for you to understand this feeling."
"I have had this feeling, helpless, timid, and no hope. When we were young, we felt that our fate was up to us, because when we were young, we lived in a safe zone, just like the novice village of the game. Once a novice comes out,
After the village, you may face various dangers. You know that if you want to survive, you must strengthen yourself, but who knows that there are still a group of RMB players.
This group of people only need to recharge to get the best equipment. If your skills are not good enough, you can find a power leveler. If you offend this group of people, they will be wiped out and wait for you to be resurrected at the resurrection point to continue grinding. This is so cruel.
.
I have experienced that kind of powerless despair, and it came earlier than you, but it is not as miserable as you, but aren't we all still alive? When we are alive, we have the opportunity to make a comeback. After we make a comeback, we will know how to cherish it more. Let's go to the company.
.”
"You dare to use me?" Geng Hao sat up straight and asked Chen Shi, with expectation in his eyes.
"Why don't you dare to use it? Now is a harmonious society, a society ruled by law. They are just rich businessmen. They are afraid of birds. I can't stand this kind of people the most. If they don't get it, they will be destroyed. Mainly because I am also offended.
The Han family is here.
I just want to take you with me." As soon as Chen Shi said the second half of his sentence, Geng Hao was so frightened that he wanted to get out of the car, but the door was locked. Oh my god, no wonder he treated himself so well. This guy is also
Offended the Han family.
"Boss, why did you offend the Han family?" Geng Hao asked.
"It's nothing, do you know about the Korean War?"
"I know, back then he recommended two actresses to join my crew, but I refused. Those two really didn't have any acting skills, and I was afraid of ruining my work. So that's what happened to me. What about you?"
"Me, I'm relatively simple and innocent. I just let him know that I want to sleep with the woman he likes. I guess he thinks so too. The most annoying thing is that it's not good for the woman he likes to scold him in front of me.
, what do you think he will do to me?"
"Boss! Please open the door. I want to get out of the car. Please give me a way to survive. I refused and he did this. You are seeking death."
"You're afraid of a hammer. I'm not afraid of you. Remember, knowing who you've offended makes you feel safer than not knowing who you've offended. Do you have any other options? I'll do it tomorrow.
The message that you are cooperating with us is sent out, and you have no choice but to cooperate with me."
"You~ I can only choose to accept it?"
"It's necessary. What else are you thinking about? We're here, right here."
"It's okay. Although there isn't much of an artistic atmosphere, at least the wind and rain don't hit my face. I'm very satisfied." Geng Hao said as he walked into the office building.
Chen Shi didn't say anything. Geng Hao was right. There is indeed no artistic atmosphere here. In fact, art is a very mysterious thing. There are places. If you are famous, you are art. If you are not famous, you may be called lazy and a liar. After all, art
There are a lot of them, and there are a lot of scammers, but the more you go to a big city, the harder it is for scammers, because there are too many people in the industry and too many professionals.
I vaguely remember someone saying that when he told others about his dream in his hometown, a group of people looked at him with ridicule and eyes. When he arrived in a big city, not many people laughed at him, and all they said to him was cheers.
, these things why some people have been wandering in big cities and do not want to return to their hometown, because no one understands the most sad thing.
Nowadays, there are many channels, and a group of grassroots people will suddenly appear in various short videos. Each of them has special skills, which is eye-opening. In fact, some people in the local area may already know their special skills, and they have performed them many times, but no one thinks they are great.
, or at most say, "Who is it?" Anyway, you can perform it for everyone if you don't have time.
Chen Shi remembers that one day during the summer vacation in Chenjiacun, a boy came into contact with Michael Jackson for the first time, and then he became obsessed. He walked for tens of minutes to the Internet cafe in the town and stayed up all night to watch Michael Jackson's dances and some video tutorials, and then returned repeatedly.
He practiced at home, and he actually persisted for many years, and then performed the moonwalk for Chen Shi. He danced very well. As a result, his mother and father often ridiculed and beat him, saying that he didn't learn well and he only knew this all day long.
This is the importance of the platform. If that boy was not in Chenjia Village but in a well-off family in an urban area, with his obsession with dancing, the family would probably be so happy that they would send him to learn dance.
In the future, he could support himself through this and even become a dancer, but the reality is that the boy in Chenjiacun ended up at the construction site and stopped dancing much for fear of being laughed at.
Until one day Chen Shi saw this guy who was famous for doing the Michael Jackson dance in an open space wearing a helmet. He was the boy he once was. He had a platform and really gained fans through dance. It is said that he relied on short videos.
I made money from dancing in the video and built a two-story house at home.
We live in an era with relatively fair platforms and multiple channels, so if you have a dream, go and try it. Life is short anyway, so why not try it a few times.
Geng Hao came to the second floor and went straight to the bathroom to take a bath. It had been a long time since he took a comfortable bath. Now he could finally take a comfortable bath.
Fifteen minutes later, Geng Hao walked out of the bathroom. Wearing a large white vest, a pair of large colorful pants, and a pair of flip-flops, he came out and said: "You have a nice place here. There is also a place to take a shower. It's more professional than I thought."
, I am ready, ready to work at any time.
Boss, how much is my guaranteed salary? Can you advance me a little so that I can pay off my credit card with Huabei? Otherwise, if you call me every day, I won’t even dare to answer the phone.”
"How much do you owe?"
"Not much, fifteen thousand, I don't owe anything else. Mainly because no crew has asked me to be a supporting actor recently. I did a supporting role for a while a few days ago."
"I'll give you 20,000 yuan a month, including food, housing and five social insurances and one fund. You work hard for me without any profit sharing. The contract is ten years and there will be dividends at the end of the year. If you make two films that are well-received and sold well, I will directly
I’ll give you a share. If you can’t photograph it, just live here and wait to die. Anyway, you’re older and you’ll be more than qualified to be a doorman.”
"Okay! It's a deal, thank you boss! The boss is a very good man!" Geng Hao said happily, as if he had honey on his lips.
Chen Shi looked at him. He was once a very popular director in the film industry. He was the envy of many people. He was very arrogant back then. Now that he is like this, time will erase everything, including yours.
Proud.
Maybe it's not time that erases it, but life. After all, people are iron rice and steel. If you don't eat for one meal, you will feel hungry. Tea, rice, oil and salt can crush your pride. This is reality.
"Blessing is misfortune, misfortune is blessing. Look, you are not doing well like this. At least you are becoming more and more tactful. Being tactful is right. Being tactful means that you know how others feel. You know what everyone likes. Sign the contract now.
Then I'll give you some jobs, work hard!" Chen Shi asked Geng Hao to give him a card number and transfer 100,000 to him.
"Boss, I can't use so much."
"It's not for you, it's for your parents. At least let them know that you don't need to worry about your life now. There are work arrangements here for you to take a look at. I don't know anything about shooting. You are more professional than me. Professional
Leave the matter to professionals.
Just tell me what equipment you need. Money is not an issue, the issue is to be effective. I am a more realistic person and only care about the final results."
Geng Hao looked at Chen Shi's leaving back, his expression always had that kind of fixed smile, you could understand it was a fake smile, he was crying while laughing, he wiped the tears with his hands, suppressing his crying, his whole body was shaking,
Parents, I feel sorry for myself. A few years ago, my parents helped me.
However, he actually watched his parents getting older day by day, but he failed to fulfill his filial piety. He was already thirty. He originally thought that this would be the end of his life. He only prayed that the Han family would collapse soon, but how could a big family be so like this?
It's easy to collapse.
I didn't expect that I would still be here today. After paying off the debt, a staff member went through the employment procedures with Geng Hao. What Geng Hao didn't expect was that Chen Shi prepared an office for him, which was separate, and gave it to him.
He was given the keys to a single apartment.
Finally, I received a WeChat message from Chen Shi. The content is as follows: Make a video with your parents, everything is ready for you. Brother, I don’t want to see a genius decline, let alone see a person being unfairly suppressed, maybe after so many years.
The precipitation is your blessing.
Geng Hao took a deep breath and wiped his tears, Damn! I smoked too much today and am crying all the time. No! I have to get a haircut again and buy a set of decent clothes.
He ran out of the office building and went to the barber shop for a haircut. He spent a thousand yuan in the mall to change his outfit from top to bottom. Then he returned to the company and opened a video call to talk to his parents. Geng Hao took pictures of the company and showed them to his parents, and then a group of
The interns from the performance department started to perform. When they saw Geng Hao, they greeted him directly and shouted: "Hello, Director Geng!"
In fact, his parents didn't know who Geng Hao had offended. Geng Hao kept lying to his parents that he was experiencing life, making documentaries, and looking for creative inspiration to make a big-budget movie. After lying for so long, he almost believed it.
, but how could the parents not notice Geng Hao's problem, and they just cooperated with him in acting.
When parents see their son like this now, their first impression is that their son is lying to them and pretending to have a good life. Especially recently, various short videos will feature people pretending to have a good life, borrowing cars and venues to film for their families to see.
Geng Hao chatted with his parents for half an hour and found out what they were worried about. There was no point in explaining. He could only tell his parents with practical actions that he was doing well.
After retrieving something in an instant, Geng Hao looked at the work that Chen Shi gave him... What the hell is this? Pretending to be all over the world, is this a special effects route?
I also helped three of the company's female artists produce an online variety show. I could do this a bit, after all, I had learned the production process in this area before.
The last one is to help the company’s female artists take artistic photos. Damn it! I am a director, not a photographer. I can do photography myself, but this is an art photo shoot. The next job will not require me to go to R-book to shoot the works and publish them, right?
But at least I have a job, which is better than no job at all. Let’s go take a look first.
Chen Shi called Zhao Niuniu and asked him to borrow a location for filming. He planned to shoot a few short videos for Ji Ziling and put them online.
I bought a set of projection equipment and screens online, ready to switch to mobile scene shooting at any time. Geng Hao is definitely a treasure discovered by Chen Shi. This guy is not weak, but very strong, but he has no chance. Now give him a chance.
, if it were Geng Hao five years ago, would you want him to film a movie? There would be no way out, and all the major investors would be lining up.
As long as Chen Shi puts himself into work, he will be highly efficient and work hard.
Next few days.
I found more than 20 foreigners at the pier. These were crew members from all over the country. Each of them was given 200 yuan to get in and get food in the car. They were taken directly to the company. When the curtain opened, a moving scene unfolded in front of us. A group of foreigners
Walk back and forth in front of the curtain.
Ji Ziling waved in front of the curtain and said: "Hello friends, I am Miss Ji, the good-for-nothing. I am in Melbourne at this moment. Today I am going to an Internet cafe in Melbourne to find someone to play PK games with. Come with me next."
"Okay, next one!" Geng Hao shouted.
The curtain changed again, and a group of company employees upstairs turned into extras. Then walking in front of the curtain, Ji Ziling waved again and said: "Hello everyone, I am the good-for-nothing Miss Ji. I am in Seoul at this moment. I
I still have to go to the Internet cafe here to challenge local gamers, come with me!”
"Okay! Next one." Geng Hao shouted.
After filming four scenes in a row, Chen Shi took a group of people to Zhao Niuniu's Internet cafe again. The door of Niuniu's Internet cafe was covered by a canvas. There was a string of English on the canvas. After the English, he brought an acrylic board.
I blocked the door and continued to change it to Korean. I changed the door three or four times to shoot.
Then after entering the house, two foreigners were replaced by the cashier. A group of foreigners were sitting next to the computer pretending to be players. The computer page was also changed. The details were in place. Ji Ziling walked in from the outside, pretended to be online, and then watched
When a foreigner is playing games, let's have a game by communicating in English.
The foreigner happily agreed. As a result, Ji Ziling won the victory and quickly moved to another area of the Internet cafe. The prop master was rearranging the cashier counter, and it turned into two female employees of the company chatting in Korean.
Ji Ziling walked in from the outside again, changed the area to shoot, and greeted several beauties and young brothers. However, her Korean was not fluent, so she used a translator to tell them that she wanted to play a game with them.
In the end, the other party readily agreed, and Ji Ziling still won. All the company members put on makeup and changed clothes to avoid being recognized. This was a filming crew, and makeup artists, prop artists, sound effects engineers, etc. all came into battle.
, generally short video bloggers don’t have such a big battle.
This kind of short video only lasts five or six minutes, and it mainly highlights the world and Ji Ziling's great game. It was shot in one day, followed by editing, silence and dubbing.
If the four short videos become popular, let Ji Ziling start a live broadcast to perform eating videos and play games. After getting a response, they will go abroad for filming and filming. After all, the fake ones will always be exposed.
Ji Ziling ran up to Geng Hao and said, 'Isn't this too fake, Director Geng? Is this going to be a gangster?'
"Fake? The moment you are in the camera, you are not yourself. You are acting. What is not fake? It is fake that you are naked and taking a shower. Everyone can see you at a glance. Let alone any actor's true temperament, it is all fake.
It’s for you to see on camera, but not for you to see, do you know her true temperament?
But this is indeed a fucking lie, but who said you are more miserable than me? We owe that guy money here, but the biggest difference between you and me is that I haven’t been called a loser yet. If I am going to be called
If we are useless, then we will be a useless duo.
As for the cross-dressing scene, don't worry, it's too short. Wherever there is a cross-bordering scene in five or six minutes, I will look at it and remove or add it in the post-production process. Generally, only TV series have a lot of cross-bordering scenes because of the length.
You should go to training quickly and don’t be with me. Once you are with me, you will think that I am a loser just like you."
"Damn! You said that to me too. You owe more than me. Also, how long has it been since you last seen a woman? The day before yesterday, you took a photo album for those interns in the company. I heard that you couldn't stop your nosebleeds.
Sent to the hospital?"
"It's a purely fabricated rumor. Who said that? Tell me, our company has a team of professional lawyers, and I will sue him to death!"
"That's what the lawyers in our company said." Ji Ziling said.
"Fuck! These bastards, even the black and white of their mouths belong to them. I'm going to edit the film." Geng Hao took a photo of the foreigner and the staff with his mobile phone and said, "Mom and dad, I'm filming on the set, have you eaten?"
"It was a small move that he had been holding back for four or five years and never dared to do it with his family, because he really had nothing to take pictures of and he couldn't let his parents know that he was sleeping on a park bench.
Now I can finally do such a simple thing, and my parents also know that my son is really doing well. He has been in this state for several days in a row, and he lives in a very good place. He seems to be the same as before.
"Old Geng, come over here and take a look at the scripts. Which one is suitable for our Qingzi, Muzi, and Xiaowanzi films? These are the script outlines just sent by the screenwriters."
"Immediately." Geng Hao is a good person, maybe he has gained it through hard work over the years. Chen Shi has been promoted again and is the general manager of the company. Many people know that Wang Zheng is the biggest boss here, but Geng
Hao observed from the conversation between Chen Shi and Wang Zheng that Wang Zheng sought Chen Shi's opinion on several occasions. He saw through it but did not speak out. Since they didn't want to speak out, there was no need for him to speak out.
When he came to the conference room, Geng Hao looked at the script Chen Shi gave him and said in surprise: "What the hell! Is it a script? What the hell!"
