Disaster Artist

It is a good thing to seek well-being for group performances, stand-ins, and martial arts, but it is not for the film company—

The rising cost is visible to the naked eye.

In fact, compared to the remuneration of top actors like Tang Sheng, the cost of insurance for "unofficial" actors is simply a drop in the bucket, but the key is that film companies are businessmen, and they can't afford it without profit.

The studios are willing to pay 100 million more for the top superstars because they believe they can get more returns, and the audience is willing to go to the cinema for these actors; but the investment spent on "unofficial" actors will not pay off , trading at a loss is naturally not welcome.

Therefore, the film company must be unwilling, and may even jointly suppress it.

So, how should this be done?

Inside and out.

First of all, the film company needs to find a breakthrough, and Blue Whale Pictures and Gate Pictures take the lead.

However, if they only rely on the strength of these two companies, they cannot resist the deep-rooted and intertwined interests of the entire film industry, which may even lead to established film companies joining forces to deal with them.

Second, they need the push of an external force, that is, a brokerage firm.

For the agency, the dividends they get from the "unofficial" actors are not much, or even very limited; but the good thing about this is that they can "represent the well-being of the actors" justice The identity of the messenger and the film company are on an equal footing to start a conversation——

In the final analysis, it is actually a battle for the right to speak.

Brokerage companies use "unofficial" actors as an entry point, and then win the conversation pedal to obtain more benefits for big-name actors and first-line actors, then the benefits are very considerable; in addition, this matter itself has "charity" With the color of righteous deeds, the brokerage companies can also win a good reputation.

Both fame and fortune, brokerage companies will not refuse.

This is also where Lu Qian is cunning. By shifting contradictions and shifting the focus, he can not only win benefits for those actors, but also allow Blue Whale Pictures and the brokerage company to stand in the same trench. Once interests are involved, this can Let Blue Whale Pictures further gain a firm foothold in the industry.

Of course, Lu Qian's starting point is unquestionable, he just chooses the most correct way to maximize the effect.

Ji Xu laughed cheerfully, but after laughing, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Qian carefully, until Lu Qian was a little hairy, Ji Xu said.

"A Qian, do you know? You've changed a lot."

"The same thing, when I was facing Liuguang Film Industry, I was in a hurry, I couldn't sleep, and I was in a constant state of panic, but now I am digging holes for the top leaders of the pyramid and strategizing."

Lu Qian's heart thumped: Is this skin mask still exposed? But it has been a year and a half in the blink of an eye, and he still thinks he has adapted perfectly.

However, before Lu Qian could speak, Ji Xu showed a wry smile and continued talking to herself.

"After all, we've all grown up."

"Oh, when we were young, we all longed to grow up because we could control our own destiny; but when we really grew up, we realized that the more adults and the more powerful we are, the more constraints we have, and then we gradually change and grow. Become something you don't even recognize."

"Sometimes, I am very happy, we can now face ups and downs calmly; but sometimes, I miss us who laughed heartlessly at that time."

It's a sigh and a sigh.

Looking at Ji Xu in front of him, Lu Qian's slightly uneasy mood calmed down again, "This is life, the only thing we can do is to fight and fight with all our strength, and then prevent ourselves from becoming the person we once hated and hated the most. ."

Ji Xu was slightly stunned.

Lu Qian laughed lightly, but the smile soon subsided.

"Growth will come eventually. People don't always say that the most ridiculous and sad reality is that we will all become the person we hate the most. If we want to avoid this, we need to fight it with all our strength. ."

"Student Ji, we are doing well now, so we will continue to persevere."

"Getting benefits for those 'informal' actors is the first step."

Hearing this, Ji Xu laughed softly, "Once we take this step, we may become the public enemy of the film companies."

Lu Qian shrugged, "Didn't the media call Blue Whale Pictures a spoiler? Then, let's make a mess and don't disappoint their praise."

From the very beginning, Blue Whale Pictures was not a traditional film company, it was a place of freedom that carried their dreams, and it was destined that they would blaze an unusual path.

spoiler?

Lu Qian really thought it was a compliment.

Ji Xu couldn't help but gear up, her eyes flashing with madness and impulsiveness, "I'm looking forward to it."

In his bones, Ji Xu is a daring person, more daring and wanton than Lu Qian, that's why he impulsively submitted his resignation and left the streamer film industry.

But when it comes to lawlessness, Ji Xu is about to give up in front of Lu Qian.

There was also a smile in Lu Qian's eyes, and then he gently raised his jaw and gestured to Ji Xu.

"and then?"

"It should be more than that? It's just that if Guan Zhou is accidentally injured, the reporters won't come to bother me."

Lu Qian brought the topic back to the track again, Ji Xu opened his mouth slightly, "Ah", and answered directly without giving up.

"Yesterday, the crew resumed work after a full week of rest."

"As a result, a crew member was slightly injured while filming a small blasting scene."

As soon as the voice came out, Lu Qian's eyebrows were tightly tangled together, and his expression was serious.

Ji Xu quickly explained.

"I was sent to the hospital as soon as possible. After examination, there was no serious problem, just a skin injury."

Despite this, Lu Qian still did not relax.

They themselves have been immersed in work on the set for a long time, and after the "raid" test, they also know clearly that when shooting action/martial arts movies, accidents will inevitably occur.

But the point is, even if I know this~www.novelmt.com~ I am still worried every time I encounter an accident. Judging from the recited words, it is only "a staff member was slightly injured"; however, the actual situation is far from the truth. It's far from simple, and it may have a bigger impact, and the injuries to the staff may be more serious.

It is a living life, not a set of numbers.

Guan Zhou is like this, and so is the "one" staff member.

Both Ji Xu and Lu Qian knew the seriousness of the matter. Even if there was no more harm, they should pay attention to it. This is why Ji Xu told Lu Qian——

Journalists will not let such news go unnoticed.

This time, it was a minor injury, and the reporter might not come to harass Lu Qian; but what about next time? After all, if there is a tube boat first, and then there is an explosion, who can ensure that there will be no next time.

Ji Xu could also understand Lu Qian's mood, and continued talking without waiting for Lu Qian to ask.

"The staff member's medical expenses and lost work expenses, we have gone through the process as soon as possible."

"I still have a job here, so it's inconvenient to walk away, so Xiu Zhongjun will go to the hospital in person tomorrow."
