Huayu timely rain, they forced me to be the top star

Chapter 104 Ying Bao: Testing the old cadres with this? I almost stabbed myself

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Zhao Liying almost choked on the drink she had just drunk. Her cute little round face turned red instantly and her eyes widened.

She kept patting her chest, and finally managed to catch her breath. There was shyness and panic in her eyes: "What did you say!?"

Although Zhang Yang once helped her out and treated her to big meat buns.

Although Zhang Yang helped her avoid being scolded by Yang Mi's fans, she also gained a wave of popularity.

Although Zhang Yang often chats with her and they have common topics, he is still one of the few people who remembers her birthday and sends her blessings. He even sent her a birthday present today.

But she can't be casual!

"You are quite handsome, but don't think it is so beautiful." Zhao Liying added in a low voice.

No matter what, you have to chase her first, right?

I've never had anyone chasing me, but now that someone this handsome has come along, is there any need for me to be reserved?
Zhao Liying fell into a period of wild thoughts.

Zhang Yang found it really interesting. Zhao Liying was really Xue Shanshan.

He said that just now, actually he was being naughty and teasing Ying Bao.

Putting down his chopsticks, Zhang Yang said seriously: "I'm sorry I didn't make it clear. I wanted to invite you to my company."

"Ah!?" Zhao Liying subconsciously opened her mouth, looking cute and silly.

Zhang Yang is not trying to pursue her, but to poach her?
I felt inexplicably frustrated, but more confused: "You want to poach me? Do you think highly of me?"

It has been almost six years since she entered the circle in 06. In 09, she moved to Peking University Star with He Ru and got the role of Xing Xiuyan in "The New Dream of Red Mansions". She became slightly famous for her role as Qing'er in "The New My Fair Princess" and was able to film "The Wrongly Pointed Mandarin Ducks", becoming the first female lead in her life.

This year she changed her contract to Hairun. He Ru had a good relationship with Yu Zhen, so she was invited to play a supporting role in "Palace Lock and Bead Curtain". Yu Zhen promised to give her the leading role in a drama, but nothing happened.

Hairun has no new job for her, and she now wants to go back to Hengdian to play supporting roles. She feels insecure and uncomfortable without any roles to play.

Zhang Yang actually wants to sign a contract when she has no outstanding works and many seniors in the industry have asserted that she cannot be a female lead?

At the same time, she also wondered what ability Zhang Yang had to sign her. She was following the hit TV series "The Empress of China" and noticed that Zhang Yang was the actor who played Zhao Kuangyin, whose popularity was almost as high as that of several leading actors, and was a contracted artist of Tangren.

"Yes, I am optimistic about your future development." Zhang Yang nodded slightly, his eyes sincere: "I have seen the roles you played in "Golden Wedding", "New Red Mansion", "The Royal Secret Agent", and "New My Fair Princess".

"I think you have great acting talent and are worth training and promoting, so I invite you to join the company. This is my official business card."

Zhang Yang placed the two business cards that Mo Xiangwan had customized for him in front of Zhao Liying.

One was a personal business card with a black background and gold-plated font, with only the two words "Zhang Yang" written on it, and a mobile phone number on the back.

There is also a type of work business card, which has black letters on a white background with the words [Zhang Yang, Chairman of Chenhai Entertainment Company] written on it, and the mobile phone number is the work number.

"this."

Seeing that Zhang Yang was serious, Zhao Liying scratched her cheek helplessly and carefully put away the two business cards: "I'm not very good at talking, so don't get angry if I say something you don't like."

"You can speak freely." Zhang Yang pretended to listen attentively.

It depends on how much strength Zhao Xiaodao can exert today.

"You are still a Tangren artist, right?" Zhao Liying said with an awkward expression, "Although being an artist does not affect you from opening your own company, you will definitely be constrained. It will definitely not be too powerful, right?"

A blood!

Seeing that Zhang Yang's expression did not change, Zhao Liying felt a little relieved and continued, "But I have seen your intelligence ability, you should have a strong network of connections, but I am now signed to Hairun, a well-established entertainment company, with teachers Haiyan and Sun Li, etc. You can't compare, right?"

It’s pretty good, and it brings some comfort, but... second blood.

"Even if your company is powerful, my agent has been working with me for a long time. He took me to Peking University Star and upgraded all the resources given to me. Now he takes me to Hairun. Although I haven't performed well, I can't just leave because of someone's offer, right?" Zhao Liying's tone became serious.

She felt that she and Zhang Yang were good friends, and they could say anything regardless of whether it was realistic or emotional.

"That's right!" Zhang Yang snapped his fingers.

A smile appeared on his face that surprised Zhao Liying.

"Well, let's solve your problems one by one now."

Zhang Yang took out the documents he had prepared long ago and placed them in front of Zhao Liying.

"Supplementary agreement?" Zhao Liying flipped it open and took a look, not knowing what it meant.

"Tangren is willing to terminate my contract one year in advance." Zhang Yang patiently explained: "The agency is not a charity, why would it do something that harms its own interests?"

"Why?" Zhao Liying blinked innocently.

"Of course it's because I bring her benefits and I'm capable enough, so she wants to maintain her relationship with me." Zhang Yang talked about his "great achievements" in the past few years.

In fact, it is just a simple description of one's academic performance and the connections one has built up in the entertainment industry in the past six months.

Zhao Liying is an insider in the industry and must be familiar with Tangren, so she can roughly judge the value of his words.

Of course, what he said was just bragging.

Seeing Zhao Liying eating again subconsciously, he twitched his lips and asked, "Does it sound like a scam?"

"Yes, a little bit." Zhao Liying smiled silly and nodded.

"These are not important." Zhang Yang lost the mood to brag and took out two documents and a stack of scripts and pushed them in front of Zhao Liying: "If you sign with my company, these two female leads will be yours, and I will support you."

Zhao Liying blinked.

Why do I have the feeling of "I'll give you five million and support you in the future"?

Secretly reminding herself not to let her mind wander, Zhao Liying picked up the two documents.

This document is actually a printed invitation letter.

[Project name: "Female Appearance"]

[Production company: Perfect World Pictures, Xishijie Pictures, Chenhai Pictures Entertainment]

[Investment: 20 million] [Contractor: Chenhai Film and Television Entertainment (Tangren Filming Team)]

[Director: Lin Yufen/Liang Shengquan/Wang Weiyan] [Screenwriter: Zhang Wei] [Filming time: December 11 to March 12 (tentative)]

【Male one: Zhang Yang】

【.】

"!" Zhao Liying's heart skipped a beat when she looked at the simple information on the paper.

She is familiar with director Wang Weiyan. They had worked together when filming "The Royal Secret Agent" starring Xu Zheng. He is one of the contracted directors of Zhouyi Film and Television.

Although she had never worked with Lin Yufen and Liang Shengquan, she had heard that they were Tangren's favorite directors, so this drama was jointly created by Tangren and Zhou Yi's directors! ?

As an insider, she also knew the name of screenwriter Zhang Wei, and was naturally familiar with several production companies.

Zhang Yang gave her more than just five million, he gave her fifty million!
"Don't ask if this is true or not, the script is in your hands." Zhang Yang spoke before Zhao Liying confirmed.

Zhao Liying: “.”

Isn't this too much of a test?
She didn't rush to open the script, but went to look at the second document.

[Project name: To our youth that will eventually pass away]

[Production company: China Television Investment, China Film Group]

【Investment: 60 million】【Director: Yan Zi】【Screenwriter: Li Qiang】

[Filming time: March 12 to July 3 (tentative)]

[Male lead: Zhao Youting] [Female lead: Yang Zishan]

[Audition for the role of Zhu Xiaobei (female third)]

Zhang Yang also got the audition for this role from Ma Yili.

There was no calculation or deal. He just sent Ma Yili a video of the emblem and Yao Di's private dinner date on the day he left Hong Kong, and said, "Sister Yili, you can be nicer to yourself. I think you can fly. Why don't you use the resources on yourself? I think the celebrity couple should be the one who is more popular speaks louder, right?"

Although Ma Yili is nice to Meng Chuang, maybe it's because he thinks she is too old and a little bit in love.

But she was definitely smart and immediately understood that Zhang Yang meant well and was very grateful.

As soon as Zhang Yang arrived in the capital, he received an email from her, informing him of his audition qualifications for the second male lead and third female lead in So Young.

An audition is just an opportunity, but not everyone can have this opportunity. Zhang Yang knows that although "So Young" is director Yan Zi's debut film, its box office performance is not bad.

When So Young was released, The Legend of Lu Zhen had not yet been aired. If Zhao Liying could get the role, she could have taken advantage of the popularity of So Young instead of being exploited by it.

"hiss!"

Looking at the audition invitation in her hand, Zhao Liying felt even more uneasy.

It turned out to be an invitation for a role in a movie. Just looking at the configuration, you can tell it is a high-quality project, and the role is the third female lead.

For those who want to be a good actor, the temptation is huge.

Zhang Yang used these two opportunities to test her, how could she withstand it?
"You" Zhao Liying looked up at Zhang Yang and uttered a few words after a long while: "You really look good on me."

At first, she thought Zhang Yang was joking.

But these real resources cannot be faked and represent the real attitude.

"From the end of the meal until now, not a single word I said was false." Zhang Yang said with a smile.

Zhao Liying was in a dilemma. After a while, she said, "It's useless for you to come to me. I need my agent and Hairun to agree to release me. The penalty for breach of contract is not low. It's not worth it."

Actors' pay started to skyrocket in 09. Previously, second-tier actors' pay was between 3 and 5 yuan per episode. In 12, it was basically maintained at around 10 yuan. In 13, actors at the end of the first-tier or the beginning of the second-tier could get 50 yuan per episode, such as Zhao Liying after the broadcast of Legend of Lu Zhen.

Now Zhao Liying is still a star who barely makes it to the bottom of the third line. When she signed with Hairun, she was not as famous as she is now. The signing fee and treatment she was given were not high, and the ten times penalty for breach of contract was about three to five million.

For this reason, after Zhao Liying became popular, Hairun was afraid that she would be poached, so it immediately set up a studio for her and gave her stock incentives.

But now, three to five million is still a considerable amount of money, and even first-line stars will feel painful if they take it out.

"Whether it's worth it is for me to decide, not you." Zhang Yang said seriously, "I'm meeting you in advance to show my respect for you. If you have no objection, then I will talk to Hairun and your agent."

"I will never let you become enemies with them."

At this point, Zhao Liying certainly wouldn't be ungrateful: "If you can get Hairun and Sister Ru to let me go, then I can promise to work hard for you. I still owe you a favor."

She had signed a contract with He Ru before, and she would go wherever the latter was, and would look up to He Ru when she changed jobs.

After joining Hairun, she signed a contract with the company and He Ru was only responsible for her agency business.

To put it simply, she used to hang out with the general, and now she hangs out with the emperor, but she is still serving as a soldier under the original general.

The general needs to rely on her to get promoted and make money with the emperor, so her departure is related to both the emperor and the general.

As a young actress, she actually only needs to consider two things now.

One is the development prospects after changing jobs, and the other is not to offend the original employer and agent.

Zhang Yang has already convinced her on the first point, and the second point depends on Zhang Yang's performance.

"Then let's stop here today. We'll sign the contract here in three days at the latest." Zhang Yang smiled at Zhao Liying.

Zhao Liying:?

I just agreed, and you dare to say that the contract will be signed in three days.

Where did the confidence come from?
".Yeah." Zhao Liying controlled her desire to stab him.

The time came to the next day, afternoon.

Zhao Liying called Zhang Yang and said in disbelief: "Brother, I called you brother, how did you do that?!"

This matter is not as simple as Zhang Yang poaching her.

It was the company and He Ru who actually tried to persuade her to consider changing companies.

It’s so fantasy!
