Chapter 1 The Actor She Likes
In the past two years, video websites are so popular that they are not inferior to traditional TV stations. Among them, Huacai Video is the best. Huacai Video belongs to Huacai Group, and is backed by a large group. When I spent money on the platform for promotion in the early days, I always spent a lot of money. With enough financial support, Huacai Video gradually developed from the beginning to the fact that it started to invest in filming dramas. In the past two years, it has successively launched some well-made and well-known online dramas, helping the platform to build half of the video website.
The award ceremony held tonight was held by Huacai Video and several production companies. Shi Jun's award-winning drama is the popular "Spring Breeze Knows My Thoughts", which is also a self-produced drama of Huacai Video. The investment in this drama is very small, and no one took it seriously at the beginning. After all, it is a modern idol drama theme. Although the script is solid and I thought it might be popular, the probability of a modern drama being so popular is far less than that of a costume drama, so the initial publicity budget is not very high.
This drama became popular because of the tap water effect of fans' recommendations and the audience. When the drama was first broadcast, Shi Jun and the heroine's fans both cut some exciting videos in the film, but they didn't expect that those clips became popular on the short video platform. Seeing this, the drama began to pay attention to related publicity. With the development of the plot, the popularity of this drama has been rising all the way. The popularity of the two starring actors also quickly rose, becoming the fastest-growing star in the first half of the year.
In this case, the production platform holds an award ceremony, and there is no reason not to present an award to the actors they hold. Although the award is not very valuable, it is also a way of publicity and is part of the work. For Shi Jun, any work must be done with all its strength and taken seriously.
Because he became famous, Shi Jun was placed in the front rows, with some popular celebrity artists sitting around him, and the front row was famous and prestigious seniors in the circle. They were all famous people, and Shi Jun naturally knew who the other party was, but few of them really knew him. In the past, he also attended awards ceremony and was arranged in a corner. No one knew anyone, and no one wanted to know him. Now it's different. After he sat down, several popular celebrities sitting in the same row took the initiative to come over and add contact information to him.
Although Shi Jun is calm inside, he is not very familiar with this occasion, so he is also a little restrained.
Until a senior sitting in the front row of him suddenly turned around and greeted him.
The award ceremony is coming to an end, and Shi Jun has already received the award. Sitting directly in front of him was a veteran actor named Yu Changqing. In his early years, Shi Jun also served as an extra for his advertisements, and a group of people gathered together to take photos. Of course, Shi Jun felt that Teacher Yu would not remember these things.
Yu Changqing turned around, and Shi Jun hurriedly leaned over and leaned over to him.
"Hello, Teacher Yu!" He greeted him respectfully.
Yu Changqing smiled kindly and whispered: "Shi Jun, long time no see."
Shi Jun was stunned for a moment, a little surprised, but he didn't expect that Teacher Yu would still remember him.
Sitting next to Yu Changqing was Mr. Wu, the boss of Shanshui Media. When he saw Yu Changqing and Shi Jun talking, he turned around and joined their chat.
"Teacher Yu, do you know each other?" Mr. Wu said curiously.
Yu Changqing looked at Shi Jun and replied: "I have worked together before and am a very hardworking and down-to-earth young man."
In fact, I just collaborated on an advertisement. When Shi Jun was in college, he was just a prospective actor with a vague face. I really didn't expect that a person as big as Yu Changqing would remember him.
"Thank you, Teacher Yu has over-rewarded." Shi Jun was a little uncomfortable, and this sudden attention was paid.
Yu Changqing looked at him meaningfully, smiled, and said to Mr. Wu: "Old Wu, aren't you still talking about actors in your scene? I think Shi Jun is good. Why don't we all find some time to talk about it?"
Mr. Wu looked at Shi Jun and felt uneasy. The plays produced by his company are all in the style of drama, and they are always famous for their solid scripts and profound directorial skills. The plays produced also have a very high reputation and are basically excellent in their department. The principle of selecting people in their company is always to look at acting skills and not traffic, so they have very high requirements for actors' acting skills.
The young man in front of him has seen some clips of his popular drama. His acting skills are OK, but whether he has outstanding performance can be collaborated cannot be decided in just a few words.
However, since Yu Changqing has recommended it, it is at least proved that this person should have nothing to do with his professionalism.
So Mr. Wu also smiled and said to Shi Jun: "It depends on whether Brother Shi is interested."
Shi Jun was stunned for a moment and realized that the situation in front of him was indeed beyond his expectations. He did not expect that there would be opportunities for this kind of new drama cooperation at an award ceremony, especially an opportunity that is enough to be enviable.
Mr. Wu’s Shanshui Media has a very high reputation in the industry. The series produced are excellent and have produced many popular dramas. Their company’s cooperation invitations are both affirmation and honor for actors.
Shi Jun felt a little flattered.
He was stunned for a long time and heard Yu Changqing say, "How is it? Are you interested in filming with me?"
Shi Jun came back to his senses and replied sincerely: "My honor."
After the award ceremony, Yu Changqing originally wanted to ask Mr. Wu and Shi Jun to find a place to sit together and discuss the cooperation. As a result, Mr. Wu answered a phone call and said that the company had something to deal with, so he made another appointment to meet.
Mr. Wu walked first. Yu Changqing, who left the recording hall, walked slowly, and Shi Jun followed him politely at half a step away.
Seeing that he looked a little restrained, Yu Changqing patted his shoulder and smiled and said, "I know, you probably didn't attend such events before, so you were a little nervous. But now you are popular, and there will only be more and more such occasions in the future. You have to learn to adapt."
Shi Jun's expression was slower and replied, "Yes, thank you for your advice." Thinking of what happened just now, I naturally thank you. "Mr. Wu's cooperation is also very grateful for your recommendation. I really didn't expect that you will still remember me."
Yu Changqing looked at the young man in front of him, and his thoughts suddenly drifted back many years ago. He still remembered that the filming of a paint commercial was filmed, and there were about five or six extras in the audience. Among them, there was a scene that was splashed by paint. The director asked about it, but no one was willing to shoot it. When asked Shi Jun, he said very readily: "I can."
That day, the camera changed a few angles, and he was splashed a few times, and he didn't see any complaints from beginning to end. Yu Changqing couldn't stand it and walked up to him to comfort him, but his first words were: "Teacher Yu, I'm dirty, don't dirty your clothes."
At that time, he didn't even have an assistant. After the camera was taken, his face and arms were splashed with paint. He hid in the bathroom alone and washed for a long time but couldn't wash it off.
Yu Changqing was about to leave in a hurry and asked his assistant to keep Shi Jun's contact information. He stayed there, but later the assistant lost it. After a long time, he forgot about it because he had never encountered it again.
Recently, a drama by Shi Jun became popular and suddenly entered the public eye. Yu Changqing felt that he looked familiar, so he went to learn about it and remembered the past events.
