The element of comedy lies in exaggerated language and body movements. Zhang Yi has been filming plays in the art troupe for five or six years. Acting in ordinary TV dramas may give people the feeling of exerting too much force, but in "Stone" it is just right.
In short, Ning Hao was very satisfied.
The preliminary preparations for "Stone" went very smoothly, and He Xin even took the time to visit the new studio.
One more thing, since the success of "Green Grass", Xinhao Studio has moved out of its original small house in Tuanjie Lake and moved to the 798 Art District, which is now said to be very lively.
He Xin knew this place when he was delivering express in his early years. It was just a bunch of dilapidated factories at the beginning. I don’t know when it started to turn into an art district with galleries, art spaces, design companies, celebrity studios, etc. At the same time,
It has also spawned many restaurants, bars and other places.
Xinhao Studio is not like a gallery or a design company that needs to open its doors to welcome customers and pay attention to its market appearance. So Xiaodouding rented a two-story building in a relatively remote corner, with an area of four or five floors.
A small building of 100 square meters.
At first, both He Xin and Ning Hao thought it was too big and felt it was unnecessary. But Xiao Douding insisted, thinking that it would leave enough room for the future development of the studio. And although it is remote, the environment is good, and there is a small village in the north.
There is enough parking space in the square; there is an open space to the south, which can be designed as a small garden. If a fence is added at the intersection, it will become an area with a single family house.
What's more important is that the rent here is cheap. The rent of this building of 400 to 500 square meters is not enough to rent an office of 100 square meters in an ordinary office building.
He Xin and Ning Hao were both trouble-loving masters, so in the end they had no choice but to let Xiao Douding do what they wanted. The current utilization rate of the studio is only half of that downstairs, which is the result of the addition of several new people.
The original newcomers He Lirong and Wang Qin were obviously very experienced now. The newcomers who came in one after another followed Xiao Douding's routine of recruiting rookies who were new to the workplace. Xiao Douding seemed to enjoy this training process.
He Xin has no objection to this. Although the newcomers lack experience, the most important thing is that the salary is cheap enough.
In addition, the studio has now added an Odyssey for daily use and an Iveco for loading and unloading personnel and equipment during filming. It has also hired two drivers, security guards and other necessary logistics personnel.
In general, the studio now looks like a real studio, not like the former leather company and grass-roots team that was nestled in a residential building.
As for the vacant old house in Tuanjie Lake, the studio's CFO Wang Qin and his girlfriend's assistant Chu Qing are currently renting together.
The rent will still be charged, but it’s just cheaper than the market price, so the money won’t go to outsiders!
Originally, He Xin wanted to generously waive the rent, but after Xiao Douding's persuasion, he gave up the idea.
In Xiao Douding's words, this is not a rent issue, but a complex management issue. Anyway, Xiao Douding talked a lot about employee psychology. He Xin had a headache hearing it, but at least
It was right to listen to her advice. After all, after working together for such a long time, Xiao Douding had never cheated him.
The only thing that makes He Xin feel depressed is that the filming date of "Eggplant" has not been determined due to delays in preliminary preparations. Originally, Zhang Baibai said that it would start filming around August 10th, but it is almost 20th.
Today, there is no exact time yet. You must know that the entire filming cycle is estimated to take two months, and the start date of the other film "Yun Shui Yao" he is currently accepting is scheduled to be after the National Day holiday, so time is very tight.
While He Xin was waiting anxiously, in mid-August, the media suddenly broke a shocking news: "Wang Jinghua resigned from Huayi and joined Chengtianmen."
As soon as the news came out, the entire entertainment industry trembled.
Anyone with some insider knowledge knows what Wang Jinghua represents. She controls a large number of celebrities and connections, from the mainland to Hong Kong, almost all of them are on the front line, including Chen Daoming, Hu Jun, Li Bingbing, Fan Xiaopang,
Big names like Liu Jialing and Liang Jiahui.
The subsequent impact of such a character leaving Huayi can even reshuffle the industry.
"Wang Jinghua, the general manager of Huayi Agency, has resigned and switched to an entertainment company with Japanese background. It includes Chen Daoming, Xia Yu, Hu Jun, Li Bingbing, Tong Dawei, Ren Quan, Michelle Yeoh, Guan Zhilin, Liu Jialing, Wu Junru, etc.
The stars will all follow and leave.
If this is true, this will be the most sensational collective job-hopping in the history of the entertainment industry.
Yesterday, Huang Zhongjun made it clear that other artists are working normally and have not been affected. Regarding the rumors that Wang Jinghua has an independent management empire and that Huayi has no binding force, Huang Zhongjun specifically refuted it: all artists have contracts.
, everything is subject to the company's arrangements. Of course, they have their own choices and freedom, but it will not affect our continued production of good film and television works."
…
"A few days ago, Nandu reporters contacted Li Bingbing, Tong Dawei and other celebrities. They said they had just learned about Sister Hua's departure because their contracts with the company had not expired. Whether they would change jobs together would depend on the development of the situation.
It is reported that Wang Jinghua's resignation and that Huayi is about to be divided up are not a sudden incident. The management struggles in the past two years have finally caused such a large-scale shock.
Not long ago, after the cast list of "The Night Banquet", a new film that Feng Xiaogang was preparing, was announced, it caused a lot of speculation. There was actually no Huayi artist in the film.
Huayi's explanation at the time was that "The Night Banquet" would take an international route, and all the actors hired would have to consider their influence in the international market. But this statement was obviously unconvincing, and it directly led to Wang Jinghua's departure."
…
"Due to previous rumors, Chengtian Entertainment has a Japanese background. In order to clarify the relationship, Nandu reporters specifically contacted a senior executive at NEC's China headquarters.
He denied that ENC was involved in the incident and said it had nothing to do with Chengtian.
It is reported that Chengtian Entertainment was established at the beginning of this year. It is a large-scale company integrating film and television production, music production, brokerage affairs, stage performance and other businesses..."
…
"A few days ago, Huayi artist Xia Yu suddenly changed his tune during an interview: He said that his original contract was with Wang Jinghua, and most of the company's artists signed with Sister Hua. She has a high prestige in everyone's hearts.
We are all willing to follow her.
In response to this matter, the reporter contacted Hu Jun, Zhou Yun and others by phone, but their attitudes were equally ambiguous and they refused to elaborate."
…
"A few days ago, Huang Zhongjun suddenly lost his temper during an interview and said that Huayi could be without anyone! It would be more like me to leave!
Judging from his reaction, it is a foregone conclusion that many celebrities will change jobs.
After this great earthquake in the entertainment industry has passed, no matter who leaves or stays, it has nothing to do with us onlookers. The only issue worthy of attention is that the management system of domestic private cultural enterprises is far from mature. This phenomenon has not yet matured in the West.
Based on the strict legal system and operating mechanism, it is completely difficult to happen."
…
"The protagonist of this incident, gold medal agent Wang Jinghua, is currently abroad. When the reporter called her mobile phone, she had already transferred to the secretary desk. Then she sent a text message to the reporter saying that she would return to China on the 28th of this month. Now
I don’t know much about the specific situation while I’m abroad, and I will give an explanation when I come back.”
…
“It’s so lively!”
He Xin looked at the various news on the Internet, and at the same time he couldn't help but sigh: "Old Wu's skills are beautiful! I really don't know what the two Huayi brothers are thinking?"
Think about it, at present, the top two domestic private film and television companies are Huayi and Hairun. The former has both big names and works. With Feng Xiaogang’s New Year blockbuster every year, he is very influential and makes a lot of money.
Manboman is the recognized boss.
Although the latter is far inferior to the former in terms of contracted actors and actresses, the TV series they produce are extremely good. Moreover, one is dedicated to movies, and the other focuses on the development of TV series. Although there are struggles, the overall situation is relatively harmonious.
But this time, Lao Wu obviously came out in a brutal way, instantly pitting the two strong men against each other and turning them into a three-legged confrontation.
At present, it seems that the big winner is definitely Lao Wu, and for Hai Run, although it has nothing to do with him, the weakening of Huayi and the situation of three pillars are not a bad thing.
The only loser, needless to say, is definitely Huayi.
He Xin doesn't understand, isn't it good for everyone to cooperate with He Qiqi? He insists on making you fight to the death, weakening himself and strengthening his competitors.
Cheng Hao put his two fat white feet on the coffee table, nibbling on the crystal pear that had just been launched, and hummed: "What else can you think of, it's nothing more than a struggle for interests! Didn't you see the Huang brothers during the interview?
, they keep talking about formalization. To be honest, they don’t want to snatch the resources from Wang Jinghua’s hands!”
I have to say that my girlfriend’s words hit the mark. Actors have always been the lifeblood of their agents. Similarly, like my agent Chang Jihong, the cooperation model between Hong Jie and Hai Run is actually the same as that of Wang Jinghua and Hua Hua.
It is a cooperative model of art, but Sister Hong can live in peace with it.
This also shows from the side that the Huang brothers were too ambitious and greedy, which ultimately led to nothing in their efforts.
He Xin thought about it carefully. In the memory of his previous life, there was a period of time when Huayi was indeed unique in the country. As the company went public, the stock price skyrocketed, and it actually occupied the top spot among domestic film and television companies for a period of time.
One crop after another.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Just as the domestic film market was beginning to gain momentum, the former leader of a private film and television company was absent from the feast, or was completely reduced to a supporting role.
He Xin didn't know the reason, but judging from the later revelations that the Huang brothers were selling paintings, selling houses, and pledging equity, it can be said that prosperity must inevitably decline, and it is indeed an eternal truth.
However, Huayi obviously needs to be prepared. For example, when the candidates for "The Night Banquet" were announced not long ago, Zhou Xun, who had just terminated his contract with Rong Xinda, signed a high-profile contract with Huayi.
There is also Xiao Ming, the male number three who participated in the show. Although he is not as high-profile as Zhou Xun, it is obviously a preliminary cooperation before signing the contract. And according to the news that He Xin got from his own small circle, for example, Huayi has been in
Keep in contact with Deng Chao.
Speaking of Deng Chaolai, this guy has been pursuing Sun Li fiercely since he collaborated with Sun Li on "Happiness Is Like Flowers" at the beginning of the year.
This was a good story in the original time and space, but now there are twists and turns. From the current point of view, Xiao Dengzi is burdened with having his head shaved. Sun Li turns a blind eye to his pursuit, which makes Xiao Dengzi very depressed recently. The reason for this
, He Xin somewhat knew it.
To be honest, he had mixed feelings about this matter. On the one hand, he was secretly proud of the man's vanity; but on the other hand, he felt guilty and guilty.
But he didn't dare to talk about it with Sun Li, and the girl was very busy now. After cooperating with Xiao Dengzi in "Happiness Is Like Flowers", she quickly joined the crew of "Huo Yuanjia" and starred as the female lead.
No., starring opposite Li Jeter.
This drama just finished shooting not long ago, and another TV series called "Emerald on the Roof" has been filmed. It is said that the cast is very strong. In addition to Zhang Guoli and the British gentleman Zhang Tieling from the Iron Triangle, there are also newcomers from Wanwan.
Popular niche student Huo Jianhua.
The two of them still talk on the phone occasionally. Since the last scandal between the two, the topics between the two have no longer involved emotions. They only talk about trivial matters in life or work. For example, Sun Li said on the phone
I often ask about Chuan Chuan; when filming "Huo Yuanjia", I kept complaining that although I was named the lead female lead, my role in the role was actually very good, and she was more like a vase.
Including two days ago, He Xin heard her complaining on the phone that Wanwan named Huo Jianhua was poor in acting and was very pretentious.
Of course, now he doesn't dare to mention Sun Li's name in front of his girlfriend.
Just as he was staring at the screen of his laptop and thinking divergently, his girlfriend suddenly stretched out her foot and kicked him gently, saying with a surprised expression: "What are you doing here? I see.
Your eyes are straight!"
"Ah? Uh... I was thinking about Wang Jinghua's people. Most of them have expressed their opinions. It seems that Li Bingbing's attitude is very vague, and Fan Xiaopang seems to have disappeared. There is no news about her!"
As he spoke, he continued to scroll through the pages of the Zhalang Entertainment section displayed on the screen.
It's normal to say that it's strange. After all, Wang Jinghua's Shuang Bing is definitely one of her biggest aces at the moment. Especially Li Bingbing and He Xin witnessed Wang Jinghua's treatment of her when they collaborated with her on "Purple Butterfly".
She is as considerate as a daughter.
"Tch, what's so strange about this? Do you really think the Huang brothers are stupid? They must also be doing these people's work secretly. Li Bingbing is developing so well now. If it were me, of course I would have to think carefully about it.
Would a change of environment be beneficial to me? As for Fan Xiaopang..."
At this point, she purposely glanced at her boyfriend and said with a disdainful expression: "Don't worry about her all the time. She might actually be the boss of Huayi secretly, so naturally she won't get involved in this kind of thing.
"
As she said that, with an obvious expression of gloating, she deliberately sighed and said: "I see, Old Wu's scheme some time ago was in vain!"
There are rumors in the world that Fan Xiaopang is having an affair with the Huang brothers. I don’t know if it is true or not? But Lao Wu has been wanting to hook up with Fan Xiaopang for more than a day or two. Including Fan Xiaopang’s previous album, Lao Wu also personally provided financial support.
But now it seems that all efforts are in vain.
When it comes to Fan Xiaopang, He Xin's mood is a bit complicated. Her appearance is absolutely first-rate. As long as he is a normal man, he will always be very attractive whether he admires or lusts after such a beautiful woman.
But the more such a woman is, especially if she is ambitious, the more she will be surrounded by various topics.
He Xin had met her several times, but he was far from familiar with her. Mainly because he kept her at a distance because he was instinctively afraid of such a beautiful woman that ordinary people could not control.
Seeing his girlfriend's jealous expression, he quickly changed the subject and said, "So, I suggest you don't bother. Anyway, you still have a one-year contract with the company, even if it's hanging up,
It’s okay to wait and see, let’s take a look at the situation. After all, setting up one’s own business is not a simple matter.”
