Vol 2 Chapter 563: Ma Guoliang terminated the contract
Jianjiang, Hengdian Film and Television City.
The crew of "The Court of Night", in a makeshift lounge.
Jiang Bei, who had just finished filming a scene, returned to the lounge, picked up his teacup, and drank it.
Although the weather is not hot anymore, he has been busy with filming, which also makes him sweat profusely and talk dry.
But the effect is more gratifying.
The original story of "Night Palace" is one after another, which is extremely exciting. Coupled with his strict quality control, Jiang Bei is full of expectations and confidence in this drama!
Sitting on the chair, Jiang Bei picked up his phone, opened the photo album, and looked at the exquisite photos he had accumulated.
When he is free every day, he is not studying the script, but is looking at these photos, thinking in his mind, how can he fully shoot these beautiful scenes and show them on the TV screen.
While looking at the photo album, the phone suddenly received several messages.
Jiang Bei opened the message, it was from the deputy director of the department.
"Director Jiang, Bright Entertainment's new play is coming out, and Tan Yue is still the screenwriter, and I got some news that Tan Yue will also serve as the assistant director in the new play."
"This is my summary of some materials about Tan Yue's new play. You can take a look when you have time."
Below is a document sent by the deputy director.
Jiang Bei looked back, clicked on the file, and read it.
Jiang Bei is now in the director circle, and his status is already very high. The TV series he has produced can be said to be at the top in terms of quality and ratings.Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
But for Tan Yue, Jiang Bei really didn't care about half a point.
This young man who has just entered the TV drama circle, but has only made two-step dramas, made Jiang Bei, who has been filming for nearly 20 years, have to correct his attitude.
Because those two dramas are both hit dramas!
Jiang Bei carefully read the information sent by the deputy director, and his brows frowned.
"Tan Yue's new play is actually a court play?"
"The male lead is looking for Jiao Cheng, and the female lead is Xin Zhi. The cast is pretty good, much better than in "Lotus Lantern" back then."
"It's just arrived at the actor audition process, and the time for the start-up has not yet been determined."
Jiang Bei looked at the information and analyzed it in his heart.
"According to common sense, it shouldn't hit the schedule, but it doesn't have to be." Jiang Bei thought.
He has studied Tan Yue's plays, whether it is "Lotus Lantern" or "Underground Traffic Station", the shooting time is relatively short.
Especially "Underground Transportation Station", which was only filmed for more than two months, was still criticized by many people on the Internet.
"The Court of Night" has already reached the middle stage of filming, and it is estimated that in less than half a year, it will be finished.
If the shooting speed of Tan Yue's new drama is the same as the shooting speed of "Lotus Lantern" and "Underground Traffic Station", then it is really possible to hit the schedule.
Thinking of this, Jiang Bei couldn't help frowning.
Regarding the collision with Tan Yue's new drama, Jiang Bei was looking forward to it but also apprehensive.
What I expect is that he really wants to fight against Tan Yue. He lost to Tan Yue last time. This time he will start again. He thinks that the results of "Night Palace" will be better than "Palace Ancestral Hall". Find the place in your hand.
But I'm also worried, because Tan Yue's strength is really strong, and there is a high probability that the performance of the new drama will be very good.
Jiang Bei really didn't know whether he could beat Tan Yue or not.
After reading these materials, Jiang Bei put down his phone, and a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
This news made his originally relaxed mood heavy.
If Tan Yue's new drama is still filmed as fast as "Underground Traffic Station", then Tan Yue's new drama and his "Night Palace"
, it is very likely that it will really hit the schedule.
After reading the information sent by the deputy director, Jiang Bei was no longer in the mood to look at the photos to accumulate for himself.
He found the assistant director's phone and dialed it.
The phone rang twice and was connected.
"Hey, Old Xu, pack up a copy of the film you took before and send it to me, and I'll check it a few more times."
On the phone, the assistant director asked suspiciously: "Director, haven't you passed all those films? Why do you want to watch them again?"
The heaviness and worry in Jiang Bei's heart naturally wouldn't tell the assistant director, but said: "It's okay, I just want to take another look to make sure that every plot is ok."
At the beginning, many people were not optimistic about "Lotus Lantern", but Ma Guoliang signed up for an audition, and then he really made him succeed in the audition, and starred in "Lotus Lantern" as the roaring dog.
After "Lotus Lantern" was broadcast, it quickly became popular, and Ma Guoliang, who played the role of Roaring Dog in the play, also became popular because of his many roles and superb acting skills.
Relying on the achievements and popularity of "Lotus Lantern", Ma Guoliang's ranking on the list of second-tier public figures soared rapidly, rising directly from the middle and lower reaches of the second-tier public figures to the top 100.
Even in the months after the broadcast of "Lotus Lantern", Ma Guoliang's ranking on the list of second-tier public figures still rose rapidly, far surpassing others.
Because "Lotus Lantern" is so beautiful, it is regarded as a classic by many people, many people rewatch it, and many people come to watch it admiringly.
The rise of Ma Guoliang has also attracted the attention of the company's top management.
Just when Ma Guoliang's rising momentum gradually slowed down, "Underground Traffic Station" in which he was one of the leading actors exploded again.
Moreover, the popularity of "Underground Traffic Station" surpassed that of "Lotus Lantern"!
Compared with "Lotus Lantern", "Underground Traffic Station" has another very important advantage, that is, this kind of sitcom, when it is easy for people to think of it, they will turn it out and watch it.
As a result, there are many viewers who have three brushes, five brushes, and what's even more terrifying is that there are ten brushes.
This situation can be said to be too terrifying.
How does a TV series have to be so good that the audience can rewatch it ten times?
Even the few recognized classic TV series filmed in the earliest years can't reach this level.
Tan Yue also knew about the situation that many people on the Internet said that seven brushes, eight brushes, or even more than ten brushes, but he just smiled and didn't pay much attention to it. In the eyes of other people, it seems incredible, but in Tan Yue It seems that it is understandable.
After all, in Tan Yue's previous life, there were a few sitcoms, such as "A Certain Biography", "A Certain Son and Daughter", and "A Certain Apartment", which were written in units of 'years'.
Like "So-and-so Gaiden", this drama has been watched by many netizens for more than ten years. They watch it several times a year or even once or twice a month. have it all.
This is the unique charm of sitcoms.
At present, some people in the film and television circles have discovered this and started to study the genre of sitcoms.
But after all, Tan Yue has taken too much lead, and there is still a long way to go to reach Tan Yue's level.
The explosion of "Underground Traffic Station" made Ma Guoliang take a big step forward on the road to becoming popular.
Up to now, Ma Guoliang has ranked 23rd on the list of second-tier public figures.
It can be said that in the eyes of many people, Ma Guoliang is like a miracle.
The first brother of Starfire Entertainment is also a second-tier actor, ranking eleventh on the list of second-tier public figures.
Although Ma Guoliang's current ranking is not as good as the company's No. 1 brother, sometimes, the celebrity status of an artist is not only based on the ranking of the public figure list.
Of course, the most important reference element is the list of public figures.
It's just that there are other elements for evaluating stars besides the list of public figures.
But now, Ma Guoliang's popularity and traffic on the Internet, and even his future development potential, far surpassed that of the company's first brother.
Following Ma Guoliang's popularity in "Lotus Lantern" and "Underground Traffic Station", he also received olive branches from many great directors, as well as invitations from several TV stations' ace variety shows. UU reading
These resources, even Starfire Entertainment, are difficult to obtain.
And Ma Guoliang got it by himself. Someone in the company evaluated Ma Guoliang. Through these resources, he is very likely to enter the list of first-line public figures.
You know, among all the contracted artists of Starfire Media, there is no first-line big star yet.
It can be said that the current Ma Guoliang is really valued by the company's boss and senior management, and can even be cultivated as the company's first brother.
But at this time, Ma Guoliang asked to terminate the contract with the company.
This news was really like a blockbuster, which made many leaders of the company dizzy.
Starfire Entertainment definitely disagreed with the termination of the contract.
But there is no way to disagree, and Ma Guoliang is willing to pay the company liquidated damages.
At the beginning, because the company didn't value Ma Guoliang, it signed a contract with him at a lower level. This kind of low-level contract provides few resources and low benefits, but at the same time, the liquidated damages are also less than higher-level contracts. A lot, just over three million.
For ordinary people, more than three million is not a small number.
But for Ma Guoliang now, more than three million yuan is really affordable.
Now, Ma Guoliang came to terminate the contract with the company with more than 3 million liquidated damages.
With Ma Guoliang's insistence, Starfire Entertainment had no choice but to agree to terminate the contract.
"Teacher Ma, have you really decided?" Zhang Hong still didn't give up, and asked again.
Ma Guoliang nodded, with a firm tone, "It's decided!"
