Chapter five hundred and eight signing a contract

"Isn't that Lu Ze?"

"It seems...it's really him. Didn't he say he was filming a movie abroad?"

"Where is it? Where is it?"

Lu Ze rarely came to CCTV. Even in the years when he worked in China, he rarely cooperated with CCTV. It can't be said that anyone looked down on the other. It was just because Lu Ze's artist attributes were too single and his work was very difficult.

It is difficult to keep up with the rhythm of CCTV.

This also caused the staff who were used to seeing big stars to feel surprised when they saw Lu Ze. Seeing Lu Ze follow the fifth brother into the elevator, they gathered around and speculated that Lu Ze was coming this time.

intention.

It has been a few days since he returned to the Imperial Capital. Lu Ze has been very busy these days and has visited many teachers. Although it is unlikely that he will vote for Ge Yunzheng even if he does not go, he still has to do it to save face.

Be in place so as not to be criticized.

To lose weight, of course he won't eat very well, and of course he won't sleep well if his mind is full of worries. In addition, he is a little tired from the busy schedule. As a result, Lu Ze's face is not very good-looking now, he is groggy, giving people an unpleasant feeling.

Feeling too healthy.

After getting on the elevator, the floor was very high. The pressure generated by the rapid rise of the elevator made Lu Ze feel dizzy. He swayed a few times with garlic under his feet. Brother Wu quickly grabbed him and held Lu Ze steady with a frown.

"Are you in such a hurry to shoot a movie? Are you in such a hurry to lose weight? You don't eat as much as you should, and you even lose weight. Look, your legs are floating, right? Let me tell you, you are also in a hurry to lose weight. You are in your own company.

Why are you rushing to start shooting the movie? You have to eat some nutritious supplements if you have nothing to do. I will ask the cafeteria to make you a soup later. It will be delicious."

"It's okay. I've got all the other nutrients. I'm not lacking anything. Besides, you're an official and don't know the hardships of the people. My small company is so poor that it's about to collapse. If you don't work hard, I'll do it when it gets really bad."

I’ve been looking for you every day for food.”

"Come on, there's plenty of fish and meat. There are decent restaurants nearby. If you want to eat, sign my order."

"Forget it, I don't have that kind of blessing just yet, so I'd better keep my mouth shut, spread my legs, and pop radish and cucumber into my mouth."

After saying that, the elevator door opened. Without letting the fifth brother, Lu Ze walked out with his hands behind his back, but unexpectedly, there were many people standing at the entrance of the elevator. They didn't seem to want to take the elevator.

specially to welcome them.

"Hello, Teacher Lu, it's our first time meeting you. Thank you for your hard work. Minister Wang, I'm tired. I have to trouble you to make a trip so early in the morning."

Lu Ze did not speak, but nodded to the middle-aged man in front of him who was not bald yet but had an exaggerated hairline, and waited for the fifth brother behind him to speak.

"It's okay, let's go inside and talk."

After all, Fifth Brother is also an actor, and he still has some skills. Now he looks like this, his attitude is so upright, and his momentum is so strong. He is completely different from the man who sleeps with his hair flying at home. It is difficult for outsiders to imagine that this king

On the way to CCTV, the minister was laughing while listening to the jokes told on the car radio.

This time, Lu Ze didn't take the first step, but followed the fifth brother in an orderly manner, together with the middle-aged man he had just greeted, which just created an opportunity for the two of them to talk.

"Hello, Mr. Lu, I haven't introduced myself yet. My surname is Zhang and my first name is Hongchang. I am the general manager of our "Actor Diary" program. The person next to you is the general director of the program team. He has the same name as our hurdle champion, also known as

Liu Xiang.”

This person in charge, Zhang, is humble enough. The position of the person in charge of any program on the TV station will not be low, let alone "Actor's Diary", a key project jointly filmed by multiple departments and companies. It must be

He is also the boss-level figure among the three sets.

"Hello, you two. I will be working under you for the next period of time. I am a newcomer to variety shows. If I make any mistakes, please forgive me."

"Teacher Lu, you are so polite. Don't talk about working under me. You can cooperate with us. I was so happy that I couldn't sleep a wink all night after hearing the news. I heard that a health restaurant has opened in Xicheng. Teacher Lu can get it."

Give me some face and let’s go have a try.”

Otherwise, he is a leader, and his eyesight is really good. He noticed that Lu Ze had lost weight and his face was not very good. He probably thought that Lu Ze was ill, so he changed the place of the dinner he had booked.

I switched to a health restaurant, prepared to prescribe the right medicine, and get close to Lu Ze.

"Teacher Zhang, I really want to have a drink with you, but unfortunately, I'm about to lose weight for my next movie. I can't break my rules during this period. If you join in this game today, don't take me with you. Just in case.

If you bring out the greedy thing in me, how can I lose it? Next time, when I finish filming, I must give you a toast."

This is not a polite comment, probably not... at least if Lu Ze doesn't film "Nothing to Listen to", today's meal will be guaranteed, but refuse... You still need to express your wish to have a drink with him before rejecting

The intention of the cup, otherwise no matter how euphemistic it is, it will sound stiff in other people's ears.

Although it was a rejection, Zhang Hongchang felt that it was not awkward in his heart and laughed twice. The matter was over. And Lu Ze could tell that Lu Ze said that there was nothing wrong with his health. After losing weight for filming, he and Liu

The director obviously breathed a sigh of relief. He was probably just as worried about him as he was about Guan Yong and Tang Juan.

In fact, there are vegetarians in the imperial capital, but this meal is not just for entertaining Lu Ze alone. Others probably don't want to just eat vegetarian food. Isn't it delicious to eat big fish and meat? It's difficult to agree with others, so I can only borrow the donkey from Poxia.

, in the following time, Zhang Hongchang never talked to Lu Ze about the food issue again, but talked about business seriously.

Since this is not a lifestyle program, there is no need to follow the camera 24 hours a day. It will also reduce the risk of Lu Ze and others’ privacy being exposed, and there will be far fewer restrictions. After talking to Lu Ze about the precautions, he also asked Lu Ze

On this point, Zhang Hongchang gave Lu Ze great respect, and Lu Ze naturally expressed his gratitude.

After that, it was time for Zhang Hongchang and Liu Xiang to flex their muscles. What a luxurious production team, what a large scale of publicity, how much funds they could mobilize, how many support from economic companies they had, etc., they all had the same conditions as Lu

Ze made it clear that Lu Ze did not fully understand these things before. When they told them, Lu Ze could only use the word "satisfaction" to describe them.

luxury.

Luxurious indeed.

"Then Teacher Lu, please tell us your opinions. This program also fully demonstrates the differences in each teacher's teaching methods. We teach students in accordance with their aptitude. Let's see how we need to cooperate with you."

Giving tutors a lot of autonomy is also a major feature of this program. Lu Ze pondered for a long time before answering this question.

"First, I hope that the contestants will not cry and talk about themselves and how miserable their families are. They don't want that, no matter how good their grades are. You can give him the camera, but I will ignore it. I choose ability, not ability.

It’s a sad story. Let me make a statement to you first. Don’t let me see anyone who bursts into tears when they come up. I won’t be able to sympathize with you.”

The words were aimed at the contestants who were likely to play the bitterness card, but Waihua told the program team to stop talking about the effect of the program that today's father is in poor health and tomorrow's poor family sells iron to support. He doesn't like it, even if

That's also acting.

These words made Zhang Hongchang and Liu Xiang become serious. They didn't expect Lu Ze to be so tactless when talking about serious business. He had a completely different attitude from just chatting about family matters. I had heard before that Lu Ze took his work seriously, but he was so rude.

The human warning still surprised the two of them.

Many people now know that variety shows like to play the misery card, but is the misery card still useful? Of course it is, appropriate misery can arouse empathy from the audience, as long as it is not frequent, one or two is enough.

If the bitterness is not loved by the audience, then establish a character who is self-reliant and does not bow to the tragic fate. Many variety shows do this. In fact, Director Liu also wants to create a character like this. After all, there is such a person

The miserable contestants will not affect the reputation of the show. On the contrary, if the character is established, there will be many supporters.

But I didn't expect that what Lu Ze hated the most was doing this. After realizing it later, the two of them came to terms with each other. The man in front of him had a very poor family situation in his early years, but he never relied on the difficulties at home to gain sympathy from others.

This is a typical representative of true self-reliance and self-reliance, and does not bow to the tragic fate! It is really tempting to set up an archway in front of him to say that he will not bow to the tragic fate.

We can no longer engage in bitterness, at least we can't do it in Lu Ze's camera. The two agreed unanimously and gave Lu Ze a guarantee to continue.

"Second, I wish I had the power to eliminate my own students."

"Um... well, Teacher Lu, we have signed the same contract with the contestants. Besides, if you really eliminate a certain student, or multiple students... it will also disrupt our filming process."

"I won't recruit students. At worst, others will take four, and I will take three, two, or even one. I choose a certain player because his professional quality passes the test, but at that time, I don't know his moral quality.

, I don’t want to teach a student whose moral character is not up to par.”

Morality……

The two of them were in a daze. How long has it been since they heard the word morality in the entertainment industry? It seems...it's been a long time. In other words, in this circle, the standard of morality has been lowered. As long as it doesn't break the law, it seems

It's moral.

"But this..."

In order to ensure that there are no accidents during the filming, the program team will strictly require the contestants' words and deeds during the recording, but after the filming is over, who cares about that? Even if there is a thunderstorm, it has nothing to do with the program team.

So they really didn't consider the so-called moral aspect, whether the contestants could pass the test. After thinking about it, Zhang Hongchang still felt that he should give Lu Ze a guarantee that at least during the filming stage, they would strictly restrain the contestants. But suddenly, on the side,

Fifth brother Wang Libin, who was enjoying his tea, spoke.

"Lu Ze is right. Why, being a celebrity doesn't mean you don't have to be moral? On the contrary, shouldn't we use high standards of moral thought to decide whether a person can step onto the stage?"

As their immediate boss, Fifth Brother suddenly interrupted and their smiles became a little stiff. Of course they knew the relationship between Lu Ze and Wang Libin, so it was not strange for him to interrupt at this time, but... of course it would be best if he didn't say anything! Xu

Isn’t it enough to just make a wish?

But in fact, what Fifth Brother said was not just a compliment, but coincided with Lu Ze's ideas. As a student of Mr. Chen, he had also been tested by Mr. Chen on a moral level.

I can’t say that he is upright, but he can’t stand many things, such as the current ethical standards for artists. He has already submitted a rectification document. The industry is already improving, but as mentioned before, the entertainment industry also needs funds.

Support cannot be cut off all at once. Without giving the capital side time to make corrections, it will only prevent those low-quality artists from being on the official stage.

Some people become indifferent after watching it for a long time, and some people become more and more angry after watching it for a long time, and Fifth Brother obviously belongs to the latter. Now, he can't improve the overall environment, but "Actor's Diary" is under his control, and he is the boss

, then he must have the final say in this matter. If his moral quality is not high, it just won’t work.

"Wang Bu... Yes! You are right. I was abrupt about this. I will have people screen the contestants again later. If there are those with bad conduct, I will remove them from the team. In addition... I will also consider

After reading Teacher Lu’s suggestion, I think it is correct. If a player misbehaves during the game, even if it is not exposed, the teacher should have the right to consider whether to kick him out. I will contact the other three teachers later and ask the legal affairs department to

Teacher Lu, do you have any other suggestions for changing the player contract?"

"No more."

"Then you take a look at the contract?"

Seeing that Lu Ze had no objection, Zhang Hongchang took out three contracts from the information cabinet and placed them in front of Lu Ze, waiting for Lu Ze to read them one by one. After being in the entertainment industry for so many years, he did not need to hire a lawyer to help with the regulations of commercial contracts.

After watching it, you can tell if there are any pitfalls at a glance. CCTV’s contract restrictions are of course much more restrictive than other TV stations, but you don’t have to worry about too many pitfalls. After watching them all, it’s quite reasonable.

The remuneration is 12 million before tax, which is a big contract for the three companies that have always been "weak in funds".

It was made in triplicate and all signed. Lu Ze stuffed the contract into his bag. Even if the contract officially came into effect, Lu Ze shook hands with the two of them. When he learned that they would have a meeting later, he didn't delay and made an appointment for a dinner.

Afterwards, Lu Ze stood up and said goodbye.

Fifth Brother didn't want to leave. He had to attend a meeting with him later. He just got up to see Lu Ze leave. When he arrived at the elevator door, he took out his car keys and threw them to Lu Ze.

"I'll take a taxi and leave in a while. You can drive my car. Don't let anyone recognize me and cause trouble to the traffic police comrades. By the way, Master told me to replace the flowers with soil today. You can go to the farmer's market later to pick up two bags of urea and go back."

"

"Isn't that right, Fifth Brother...I know that the soil will be changed today, but...how do I remember that Master asked you to go over and work?"

"Hey, yo, master loves you so much. Look at how thin you are. You don't have to do any work. Don't talk nonsense to me. I will definitely not be able to get through today. I can hide from work if I can. Do you want to do it or not?

, I won’t stop you either.”

"I'm sorry, fifth brother, I can't do this work today. I'll go home and pick up some things and leave."

"Where?"

"I'm going to the Magic City. I have a hunch. If I don't go now and stay at home, all the scripts I like will be snatched up by that kid Lao Song."
