Movie Emperor: When he debuted, he was surrounded by female stars and capital Chapter 25

"I have to say you are really lucky. The investor was still hesitant at first, but the producer actually saw you on Douyin. After seeing you, the investor didn't hesitate and agreed immediately."

Director Rao finished speaking, still marvelling,

"I have to thank the three directors for their affirmation."

Qi Jia humbly thanked the three.

Afterwards, Director Rao called in a staff member and pointed at Qi Jia.

"Xiao Lin, this is the actor of Li Haigen, you take him down to walk through the process."

"Okay, director."

Xiao Wang nodded and took Qi Jia out of the meeting room.

When he went out, he met the staff member who brought him in at the beginning.

At this time, he saw Qi Jia following Xiao Wang, looking incredulous.

"Did you really pass?"

"Yes, I passed, thank you."

Qi Jia nodded slightly and responded to the other party with a smile.

"Awesome!"

The staff member gave him a thumbs up.

A staff member named Xiao Wang took him to a room, and after they sat down, they spoke.

"Mr. Qi, I am the crew's stage manager. Since you don't have an assistant now, I will contact you first. Director Rao has already told me about your situation. Since you are acting as an extra, the salary will not be very high. This is also one of the conditions for the investors to agree to let you play the second male lead. Can you accept this?"

Qi Jia nodded. He was prepared for this situation.

Not to mention a low salary, he would be willing to pay no salary.

It's because this is a movie that will be released in theaters. It may become a hit.

It is a role that many people would beg for.

Seeing Qi Jia nod, the stage manager continued to ask.

"Well, the crew plans to hold the opening ceremony on August 15th. The overall shooting time is about one and a half months. The remuneration is 30,000 yuan. Do you think it's okay?"

30,000 yuan for two and a half months is definitely a high income for Qi Jia, who has always been an extra.

So, without even thinking about it, Qi Jia agreed directly.

...

Carrying the newly signed contract, Qi Jia rode his electric donkey and felt more relaxed than ever before.

After returning to the rental house, he did not forget to call Director Zhao to tell him that his audition was successful.

Director Zhao was also a little surprised when he heard that he had successfully auditioned for the second male lead.

"Hey, you are really a talent! Very good, it proves that I didn't make a mistake."

Director Zhao was also busy, so the two did not talk much. After a few simple words, they ended the call.

There is still half a month before the shooting of "Nobody".

Thinking that this is an absurd comedy movie, Qi Jia opened his attribute panel and checked it.

He found that his comedy acting attribute was only 0.5.

Fortunately, Director Zhao did not ask him to improvise comedy during the audition, otherwise it would be terrible.

No, I have to find a way to copy more comedy acting skills.

Thinking of this, Qi Jia picked up his phone and sent a message in the actor group.

"I want a few comedy scenes. I am good at martial arts, suspense, and anti-Japanese dramas. Is there any big guy whose crew is short of people?"

Not long after the message was sent out, someone in the group tagged him.

But none of them were comedies. Qi Jia thanked them one by one and declined them all.

Wait until after five o'clock in the afternoon, and suddenly there was a new friend notification on WeChat.

Seeing that the other party was added through the actor group, and the note name was Director Peng, Qi Jia directly passed.

After passing, the other party quickly sent him a message.

"Qi Jia, I just happened to be shooting a comedy movie here, and I'm still short of a small supporting role. Are you interested?"

Qi Jia replied immediately after seeing it.

"Hello Director Peng, I'm fine. Can you tell me briefly?"

The two chatted on the phone for about ten minutes.

According to Director Peng, the film has already started shooting and is now being filmed in Penglai, Shandong Province.

The name of the film is "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

Qi Jia is given a role called Da Congming, who has few scenes.

It can be finished in two or three days.

In terms of pay, including the round-trip fare, the other party offered a flat price of 8,000.

Originally, Qi Jia regretted hearing that it was in Shandong Province, so far away.

If he had known that he would not agree so early, it would be impolite to refuse now.

Just when he was struggling, he heard the other party introduce the leading actor the next second, and his heart was suddenly pounding.

He thought, good guy, fortunately he held back and did not refuse directly.

Unexpectedly, the leading actor was Shen Teng. Qi Jia had seen the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" in which he played before.

At that time, he almost laughed crazy in the cinema.

I'm in the same crew with him, so why worry that I can't replicate his comedy skills?

So, almostAt Qi Jia's urging, the two sides happily reached the cooperation intention.

After the verbal agreement,

Qi Jia did not delay for a moment and immediately went online to book a high-speed rail ticket.

But after checking, he found that there was no high-speed rail from Yiwu to Penglai, and he had to transfer in Lin'an.

The price was more expensive than the air ticket. Although the plane also required transfers, it was faster.

So he did not hesitate and directly booked a ticket for 6 pm.

Then he packed a few sets of clothes, carried a backpack, and went out.

After having dinner downstairs, he spent 60 yuan and took a taxi directly to Yiwu Station.

At Yiwu Station, he took the high-speed train and headed straight to Lin'an Xiaoshan Airport.

At 8:10 pm, Qi Jia's plane landed on time at Penglai International Airport.

Without time to enjoy the night view of Penglai, he took a taxi to the hotel where the crew was staying.

After arriving, he called Director Peng.

After hearing that he had arrived, Director Peng asked him to wait at the door.

The crew was now shooting a night scene, and he asked someone to pick him up now.

Not long after,

he saw a black BYD parked at the door of the hotel.

The driver rolled down the window, looked at Qi Jia, and asked.

"You are Qi Jia, right?"

"Yes, yes, hello brother."

Qi Jia hurriedly stepped forward and greeted politely.

"Get in the car, I'll take you to the set."

Qi Jia got in the car, and the other party didn't say much, just stepped on the accelerator and left.

About half an hour later, the vehicle stopped at a magnificent and beautiful European-style manor.

The staff took Qi Jia into the manor.

It was brightly lit and decorated with magnificent gold and jade.

Qi Jia felt like a bumpkin entering the palace, and everything he saw was new.

"Hello Qi Jia, I'm Peng Mo."

A 30-year-old, relatively strong man came up and stretched out his hand to him.

"Hello, hello Director Peng, I'm honored that you gave me this opportunity."

Qi Jia hurriedly stretched out his hand, leaned forward slightly, and shook hands with the other party.

"I didn't expect you to come so quickly. No wonder Director Zhao praised you for your professionalism."

The other party praised him a few words, and Qi Jia said a few humble words, saying that it was all Director Zhao's love.

"Take a look first, and after finishing this segment, I'll come to talk to you with the director."

Peng Mo was obviously very busy. After a few hurried words, he went back to stare at the scene.

At this time, Teacher Shen Teng was filming in the venue.

Qi Jia saw that this was a rare opportunity, so he went to watch and learn,

looking forward to whether he could copy his acting skills right after arriving.
