Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 2 Looking for a job
Analyzing the current situation...

The most important thing is to make money!
Is there any job that can make money quickly and without any burden?

How about a trip to Macau?
Back then, Chen Daozi won 20 million with only 3700 yuan, so I, Shen Yan, can do it too!
Forget it, I have an incompatible relationship with gambling and drugs.
It’s 09 now, and the most suitable investment for the next ten years is of course Bitcoin…

It was born in 2009 and its price was $2010 in 0.0025. Ten years later, the price of Bitcoin exceeded $21250 per coin, an increase of more than 850 million times.

But... this thing is a long-term holding investment...

When you have money, you can buy some!
Just one point, the total supply of Bitcoin is indeed fixed, at a maximum of 2100 million, and its price is also determined by market liquidity. For example, if there are 1000 million US dollars in the Bitcoin system and 100 million Bitcoins in circulation, then each Bitcoin is worth 10 US dollars!

In addition, there is also the hype of the big guys in the cryptocurrency circle...

This plan passes!

writing…

Having Fuxi's inheritance in mind is a way out!

You can try copying some online articles...

It must be online literature. The circle of contemporary Chinese traditional literature and serious literature is too exclusive. The vast majority of resources are always occupied by a small group of people and their descendants.

Why hold?
Because the government provides various support funds for literature every year. If you get in, you can get a share of the pie!
Even if Shen Yan wrote "The World", it would be useless!
Therefore, only a few traditional writers were born after the 21st century...

Most of them have moved to the Internet!

Online literature is for the general public. If you write well, people will praise you. If you write poorly, it will be useless even if you are a platinum writer.

But writing online articles also takes time...

And you need a computer...

This doesn't solve the immediate problem...

Being a singer...

Well, now is the era when records are dead. In recent years, apart from talent shows, record companies have not been able to produce any singers.

Moreover… Although Shen Yan had received music theory training in his previous life, it was only the basics…

Another thing is that there are a lot of rules in the singer circle...

Let’s call my second uncle!
I found my phone, looked through my contacts, and called my second uncle...

"Hey, isn't this our big star Brother Yan? What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

Second Uncle started out with some sarcasm, then listened to Shen Yan talk about his six months of experience...

"Second Uncle, I want to continue with the group..."

Hearing this, the second uncle sighed and said, "Your personality is not suitable for working behind the scenes. The most important thing for working behind the scenes is to be able to endure loneliness... Someone who has worked in front of the scenes can't stand working behind the scenes..."

“…But, Uncle, I only have a little over 500 yuan on me…”

“…I’ll give you 2000 yuan first…”

"Second Uncle," Shen Yan continued, "Second Uncle, please ask if there are any crews recruiting actors..."

"I told you not to go to BJ, but you insisted... We're not from Beijing, so we have no connection with this circle!"

“…Isn’t there a second uncle…”

"I'm nothing..."

Shen Yan didn't say anything, and sure enough, his second uncle continued, "How about this, I'll contact those old friends and see if there are any crews that need actors..."

"Thank you, Uncle..."

"Let me tell you, if you want to be an actor, you absolutely have to apply to the Central Academy of Drama, Beijing Film Academy, or Shanghai Theatre Academy... Only if you get in, you'll be considered part of the industry. All the big names and small names in the entertainment industry come from these three universities!"

"Zhou Xun, Fan Bingbing..."

"Zhou Xun and Fan Bingbing are special cases... Do you have their opportunities and acting skills? Are you as good-looking as Fan Bingbing?" After scolding him, his second uncle must have something to worry about: "...Okay, think about it carefully... Oh, and call your grandfather more often!"

"understand!"

"You know nothing... I'm dead!" Second Uncle's tone wasn't very good, but the deep affection from his family could still be felt...

He was really nice to Shen Yan and helped him plan his future.

Although it was not stated explicitly, if Shen Yan applied for an art school, it would cost a lot of money, and his second uncle was ready to provide it!
This is something Shen Yan had never felt in his previous life...

After thinking about it, I called my grandfather again...

……

In March in BJ, although spring has arrived, it is still cold...

Early in the morning, Shen Yan left the rental house.

The leaves of several large trees standing by the roadside have still fallen off, and the bare branches are pointing straight to the sky. Coupled with the somewhat foggy atmosphere, it gives people a very lonely feeling.

Walking in this somewhat old alley, the gray tones contrast sharply with the high-rise buildings not far away.

Shen Yan wrapped his coat around him...

To be honest, he doesn't like BJ!

Whether in his previous life or this life... he doesn't like big cities!
He doesn't have big dreams or ambitions...

In my previous life, when I was young, I wanted to get rich, but after a few years of working, I only wanted to get out of poverty...

My life plan is simple: make some money, buy a house, marry a nice wife, and travel around the country when I have free time...

I had some noodles at a breakfast shop and then went to the nearest subway station.

Oh, he left home early in the morning just to audition...

Also called finding a job.

Actors who are not famous are either working or looking for work!
The crew my uncle introduced me to was called "National Anthem," directed by Gong Ruofei, and Cui Weidong was the director of photography...

Cui Weidong and Huang Wei both debuted with Zhang Li. They have served as directors of photography for "Towards the Republic", "The Imperial Guards", and "The Right Path in the World is Long and Difficult", and are very familiar with the second uncle.

Considered my own family...

It's not difficult to get a role.

Moreover, Shen Yan’s idea is very simple. He doesn’t want an important role, just a supporting role.

Cui Weidong had met Shen Yan before and knew that this guy was quite handsome and his acting skills were... so-so, but still good enough for a supporting role!

So, I recommended it to the director directly...

Shen Yan went to meet the director. The director of "The National Anthem" was Gong Ruofei, who was in the same circle as Shen Yan.

Like Zhang Li, Director Gong had previously worked at Xiaoxiang Film Studio. Later, the studio restructured and both left. Zhang Li went to Changsha TV Station, while Director Gong went to Hunan Radio and Television...

Changsha TV was very strong in those years, producing and co-producing classic TV series such as "Yongzheng Dynasty", "Towards the Republic", "National Action", "The Ming Dynasty 1566", "The Young Comrades", etc.

Including this time's "National Anthem", it was actually planned and produced by Changsha TV Station.

Director Gong previously directed "The Young Comrades" and this time he directed "The National Anthem", which can be regarded as a continuation of his style...

You see, my second uncle used to work at Xiaoxiang Film Studio, and Gong Ruofei also came from Xiaoxiang Film Studio. To round it off, they are in the same circle!
Well, Shen Yan has never met Gong Ruofei...

In fact, Shen Yan had some impression of the drama "National Anthem", starring Gu Zhixin and Hu Zhang. It is a very orthodox drama, centered on the creation of "March of the Volunteers". Combined with the historical background of the Anti-Japanese War, it reviews China's difficult journey from decline to self-rescue and even self-improvement, and expresses the spirit and ideological state of a group of patriotic intellectuals headed by Tian Han at the time of crisis.

It’s a pity that the ratings are not very good and it’s not very popular…

Of course, these are not what Shen Yan should be considering right now. The most urgent thing he needs is to join the group...

He didn't expect to get the leading role, he just wanted to play a small supporting role and then be able to join the crew!

At least there will be food for the next three months.
