Seclusion in the Entertainment Industry

Just when Xu Cheng was worrying about the third important role in "囧", Chen Feng directly recommended someone.

It's Qi Yuqiang.

Qi Yuqiang was originally filming a film with another crew, which was also a literary film. However, this time the director was a little nervous. After procrastinating for several months, not even one third of the film was completed.

What makes people even more speechless is that after filming for such a long time, the director seemed to suddenly realize that his original core idea seemed to be wrong, so he began to rewrite the script, which directly caused the crew to be unable to start production.

Therefore, after Qi Yuqiang had been in this crew for a while, he suddenly found himself unemployed.

Not only him, but many other actors and staff in the crew also had nothing to do. This situation lasted for a month. People finally couldn't stand it anymore and voluntarily left the crew. Everyone broke up.

Qi Yuqiang was the last one to leave, and it was not him who left on his own initiative, but the director who couldn't bear to keep dragging him and finally let him leave.

"Yu Qiang, you are a good actor with good acting skills and good character. It's a pity that I have a hurdle that I can't overcome this time, so you don't have to wait for news from me anymore. You'd better find another way to make a living. Wait. I’ll think about things clearly in my mind, and then I’ll try to film with you again, okay?”

Qi Yuqiang: "..."

"I'm really sorry, Yu Qiang, you also know my situation... However, although it is difficult now, I will figure it out one day, and you will still be the protagonist of my film. I promise you that!"

Qi Yuqiang: "...then...after signing the contract, I have been delaying the unpaid salary..."

"..."

"Yu Qiang, I have invested all my wealth this time. As you can see, the crew is finished and my money is finished. I don't know how to live in the future, so Yu Qiang, you Please understand me more, okay? I will give you double the salary later, now... forget it..."

Qi Yuqiang: "..."

"By the way, Yu Qiang, how much money do you still have? Can you lend me some? I have to settle this month's expenses at the film and television city, otherwise I won't be able to leave here."

…

In the end, Qi Yuqiang stayed in the crew for several months without making much money, and even lent out more than 20,000 yuan of his own money.

When he saw Qi Yuqiang actually taking out 20,000 yuan to lend him money, the director himself was dumbfounded.

He dared to borrow it, but Qi Yuqiang actually dared to give it to him!

At this moment, Jia Zhengjing himself was a little confused.

But then Qi Yuqiang's words moved Jia Zhengjing very much.

"Well, director, I believe you because I really like the story in your film."

Afterwards, Qi Yuqiang left silently.

…

After leaving Jia Zhengjing's crew, Qi Yuqiang was temporarily unemployed.

Although "Living Alone" won awards abroad, because the film was not released in China, Qi Yuqiang's popularity is not high in China. Moreover, because he was delayed for a long time in Jia Zhengjing's crew, he had many other acting opportunities before They had all been taken away by others, so for a while, Qi Yuqiang had nothing to do.

In the end, he had no choice but to go to Yan Yue, the director of "Living Alone" to see if there was a way out for her.

Yan Yue currently had no films and no resources. However, after seeing Qi Yuqiang's current situation, she thought about it and made a phone call to Chen Feng out of nowhere.

In terms of human behavior,

Yan Yue is much smarter than Qi Yuqiang. Although the cooperation with Chen Feng has ended, they still keep in touch, which can be regarded as a potential personal relationship.

But now, Yan Yue took the initiative to ask Chen Feng for help, which broke the relationship in a state of suspended animation and began to allow everyone to truly communicate with each other.

Moreover, even if Chen Feng is unwilling to help and refuses Yan Yue's request for help, it will actually have no impact on Yan Yue. Besides, she is also helping others, which further proves that she is a kind and good person.

In any case, asking Chen Feng for help is a very good plan.

…

When he received Yan Yue's request for help and obtained Qi Yuqiang's contact information, Chen Feng was indeed a little surprised, but he was more happy.

Because in his opinion, Qi Yuqiang will undoubtedly have a bright future, and of course there is no problem in helping him at this time.

Moreover, according to the previous exchanges between Xu Cheng and him, there is one missing main character in "囧囧". Isn't that one tailor-made for Qi Yuqiang?

So Chen Feng quickly recommended Qi Yuqiang to Xu Cheng.

After Xu Cheng received Qi Yuqiang's information, he was a little confused?

Qi Yuqiang? Who is this?

But after taking a closer look at Qi Yuqiang's resume, he was surprised again.

What? Acting in an art film? Have you won an award abroad? And it’s a heavyweight award!

This is nothing.

Since he is an actor in art films and has won awards, he should be more or less an artist, right? Now you actually have the intention to come here and act in a comedy commercial?

Is it a bit too far?

However, Chen Feng strongly recommended this person and seemed to be very optimistic about him.

Xu Cheng frowned and thought for a moment, and finally decided to let Qi Yuqiang try out.

After all, he was recommended by Chen Feng anyway.

…

When Qi Yuqiang rushed to Xu Cheng's studio, he was actually a little worried.

After all, he has never acted in a comedy commercial film before, so he doesn't know if he can pass the test.

Moreover, Yan Yue said that this opportunity was recommended to him by Chen Feng. If his performance was not up to standard, he would be very sorry.

Therefore, Qi Yuqiang decided to try his best to win this opportunity.

Before entering Xu Chengde's office, Qi Yuqiang took a few deep breaths and quickly mobilized all his audition experience in his mind.

Moreover, he also made a lot of preparations for this audition.

Because he knew that he was going to act in a comedy, he deliberately made himself a clown, got a blond haircut, and then wore a pair of loose bell-bottom pants, giving him an earthy and earthy look. Tide look.

Well, it looks a bit funny.

Along the way, he often encountered strange looks from others.

However, Qi Yuqiang has long been used to it. Under the gaze of countless people, he behaved very calmly and calmly, without any discomfort at all.

Just like that, Qi Yuqiang knocked on the door and walked into Xu Cheng's office.

In the office, Xu Cheng and Wang Bo were discussing something while drinking tea. When they saw Qi Yuqiang suddenly walking in, they were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

The two of them sprayed each other with tea leaves.
