Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

Chapter 723 723. Template

Nie Wei attaches great importance to talents and is very patient.

Just like Zhang Liangying, who cooperated with Nie Wei this time, he signed her personally and she is now a first-line female singer in China.

There is also Zhao Liying, who was signed by Nie Wei. Although the two sides basically had no communication after signing, Nie Wei actually paid attention to the development of such potential actors in private and arranged people to secretly observe her.

And according to Nie Wei's instructions, he would receive an inspection report on Zhao Liying every month. Nie Wei would not only read it, but also reply seriously and give his own suggestions. Then the company would arrange roles for her according to the content of Nie Wei's reply to hone her acting skills.

This is also the reason why Zhao Liying has basically not played a similar role since joining Huayi, because everything is arranged by Nie Wei. Of course, Zhao Liying didn't know and just thought it was all up to fate.

Wu Xiubo is a scarce resource needed by the company, so Nie Wei was willing to talk to him a little more and help him analyze the interests between choosing singers and actors.

"Actors are different from singers, especially male actors. The golden period of their acting career is very long. There is a saying that actors become more and more charming as they get older, because the more life experiences they have, the deeper the characters they interpret. Even if you are a singer, your voice can no longer keep up with the times."

"I believe you have been in this circle for so long, and you know that singers usually become famous around the age of 30. It is rare for them to become famous after the age of 40. Of course, if you are willing to work behind the scenes, just ignore what I said. But if you are not willing, I think being an actor is more suitable for you. You have a good foundation, but the look is a bit bad."

After hearing this, Wu Xiubo felt that Nie Wei's expression did not change, but he felt that he saw a deep disdain in Nie Wei's eyes, and it was obviously directed at him.

This feeling made Wu Xiubo blush. Could it be that his look was really bad? Subconsciously, he touched his fluffy yellow long hair, which made Nie Wei's mouth twitch subconsciously. It was really hard to associate Wu Xiubo in front of him with the charming uncle in the future.

I think Wu Xiubo should thank the mole at the root of his nose, which is also the main basis for Nie Wei to confirm that the "big Chow Chow" in front of him is Wu Xiubo.

"Think about it later." Nie Wei patted Wu Xiubo's shoulder and said.

Nie Wei's time is precious. If he can meet Wu Xiubo and chat with him for half an hour, it's all for Tian Jinghua's face and this guy's future development prospects.

But what Nie Wei didn't expect was that as soon as he said goodbye, Wu Xiubo, who was sitting on the chair, stood up and said loudly to Nie Wei: "Mr. Nie... No, Mr. Nie, I also think I am suitable for acting, but I just don't have a good opportunity."

The surprise on Nie Wei's face flashed away, and when he turned around, his expression had become calm, staring at Wu Xiubo with deep eyes, which made the other party feel a lot of pressure.

Suddenly, Nie Wei put away his scrutinizing eyes, smiled and said: "Haha, what we Huayi lacks is opportunities. How about it, are you willing to develop here?"

"Of course." Wu Xiubo greeted Nie Wei's outstretched hand and took the initiative to shake it. He was a little dizzy at the moment. He originally just wanted to come to Huayi for chrome plating, but after chatting with Nie Wei for a while, he became a Huayi.

However, Wu Xiubo felt that this was not a bad thing.

Huayi's strength is unquestionable. It is recognized as the best private entertainment company in China in the circle, and it is also seeking to go public. If the listing is successful, then Huayi's strength will definitely be further improved.

Of course, the key to Wu Xiubo's agreement was Nie Wei's words. He could feel that Nie Wei was optimistic about him. Although he himself could not figure out the reason, if the feeling was right, then this time joining Huayi would be a very good opportunity.

In fact, compared with the music industry, Wu Xiubo actually loves acting more in his bones, otherwise he would not have put all his family assets on the line to shoot a TV series. After all, he graduated from the acting department of Huaxi Opera.

Nie Wei didn't know that when Nie Wei told Wu Xiubo that he was more suitable for the path of an actor, Wu Xiubo had already had some thoughts about what Nie Wei said.

Signing a contract with Wu Xiubo was not just a matter of talking, including the salary issues that had to be discussed. Nie Wei asked Wu Xiubo if he had his own agent, Wu Xiubo said no, Nie Wei was not surprised at all.

Then Nie Wei asked the staff to bring a formal artist contract of the company, with an annual contract of five years and a commission of 30%. The other various benefits were also listed in a bunch. Wu Xiubo read it very seriously. Just from the perspective of benefits, Wu Xiubo felt that big companies were indeed big companies.

As for the commission issue, Wu Xiubo didn't have much problem. 30% seemed a lot, but if Huayi could provide greater help to his personal career, he would be the ultimate beneficiary. After all, Wu Xiubo still had some idea in his mind, which one would make more money, 10% for earning 10,000 yuan a year or 30% for earning 1 million yuan a year.

He was a little hesitant about the term. Five years, for a person who is almost forty years old, how many five years can he have?

"Mr. Nie, I want to ask, after I sign this contract, I will be an artist of Huayi, right? Will I be able to act in any dramas, or in other words, what kind of roles can be given to me?" Wu Xiubo asked tentatively.

"Wait a minute." Nie Wei did not answer immediately, but took out his mobile phone and called the company's business department.

"Has the company recently invested in any TV series? I need an important role between the ages of 30 and 40, preferably the second male lead. I have a recommendation. Yes, send all the scripts to the small conference room No. 3 after sorting them out."

After hanging up the phone, seeing Wu Xiubo with wide eyes on the side, Nie Wei smiled at him and said, "The script will take a while to be sent. I'll ask someone to take you to the company's beauty salon first. I really can't stand your look."

Wu Xiubo felt cold in his heart. Sure enough, his feeling was right. Nie Wei's eyes at that time were disgusted with him.

Wu Xiubo was out for about 20 minutes, and the business department sorted out the scripts that met Nie Wei's requirements and sent them all to the conference room.

Twenty minutes later, Wu Xiubo came back. He no longer had his slightly curly golden hair and the yellow leather jacket. He was wearing a slim black suit. His hair was not only dyed black, but also cut short, and he also had a very popular side-swept hairstyle.

However, what surprised Wu Xiubo was that Nie Wei was not in the meeting room. At this moment, it was Nie Wei's agent Luo Kai who was in the meeting room.

"Nie Wei suddenly had a job to do, and he has given me full authority to take charge of your affairs." Luo Kai did not care about Wu Xiubo's surprise at that moment, but directly pushed the pile of scripts on the table in Wu Xiubo's direction, and explained: "These are the company's existing script resources, all of which are roles that suit your age, all of which are the main roles in the play, and some are even the second male lead in the TV series."

"Sit here and choose first, and tell me which one you are satisfied with." Luo Kai looked at Wu Xiubo holding up the pile of scripts and said with a smile. Wu Xiubo was still a little confused and nodded subconsciously.

When he returned to his seat, he looked at the pile of scripts in front of him, which was at least seven or eight books, and gradually came back to his senses. He was also secretly shocked.

He finally saw the power of the big guys in the circle. Nie Wei seemed to have made a casual and temporary call, and then a bunch of resources that he could hardly think of were already in front of him to choose at will. If this happened before today, Wu Xiubo must have thought it was a dream.

"Can I take it back to read it?" There were too many scripts, and Wu Xiubo didn't want to be perfunctory, after all, they were all important roles.

"No problem, but it must be as soon as possible. The company can't keep these roles for you all the time. It's best to give me an accurate answer within three days. This is my contact information. When you have chosen the role, just tell me. In addition, please sign this contract now. After all, this is the treatment that only Huayi artists can enjoy."

Luo Kai pushed the contract that had been on the table for a long time to Wu Xiubo who was sitting opposite. This time Wu Xiubo didn't hesitate and wrote his name on it directly.

Because he really saw the power of Huayi or Nie Wei, and felt that if he could develop with such a big man, he might be able to make a name for himself in the future.

Wu Xiubo was sent away by the car arranged by Luo Kai, and then Luo Kai called Nie Wei to report the situation here.

"Okay, I know, you are fully responsible for this matter." Nie Wei was in Wang Zhonglei's office at this time. He wanted to talk to Wang Zhonglei about Wu Xiubo's matter. After all, this is an artist that Huayi will focus on cultivating in the future. Wang Zhonglei should increase his attention to Wu Xiubo and not treat him as an ordinary artist.

"Is this Wu Xiubo really as good as you say? I think his information is very ordinary. He has written a few songs, but none of them have been popular. He has filmed many movies and TV series, but nothing outstanding. He has been like this for more than ten years. Can he stand out in our hands?" Wang Zhonglei looked at Wu Xiubo's information on the computer and had doubts about Nie Wei's statement.

"That's because there haven't been any roles suitable for him in recent years. You also know the importance of roles in this industry to actors. Even if it's Zhang Ziyi, without Zhao Di and Yu Jiaolong, there would be no international Zhang today, and Zhou Runfa. Without Xu Wenqiang, he wouldn't be a first-line star. Without Mark, he would still be a box office poison in Hong Kong, and there wouldn't be the 'Double Zhou Yicheng' who will dominate the Hong Kong film industry in the future."

"Do you know who Wu Xiubo's template is in my eyes?"

"Who is it?" Wang Zhonglei asked curiously.

"It's Chen Daoming." Nie Wei replied. This answer made Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but widen his eyes and look at Nie Wei in surprise. That look seemed to tell Nie Wei, are you kidding?

You know, since starring in "Emperor Kangxi", Chen Daoming has been the top male actor in China. It's not an exaggeration to call him a national treasure actor. Now Nie Wei actually said that the template of this unknown middle-aged uncle would be Chen Daoming, which made Wang Zhonglei really dare not think about it.

"I can't guarantee whether I will have the chance to catch up with Chen Daoming in the future. After all, Chen Daoming's success is not only due to his own efforts, but also because that role is too classic and difficult to copy. However, Wu Xiubo's acting style is very similar to Chen Daoming's."

Speaking of this, Nie Wei stood up and walked to Wang Zhonglei, pointing to several TV series and movies in the information on the screen in front of him, and said: "Look back at these works, and you will find that Wu Xiubo and Chen Daoming are both the kind of people who can act like themselves in any role."

Nie Wei's words are not derogatory, saying that the acting of these two is stereotyped, but full of praise. The acting of "like oneself" here is not the acting of the kind of actor who can play several plays with a few expressions.

Nie Wei means that these two actors belong to the type of very charming, very distinctive acting, and they carry their own distinctive flags in whatever they play, but their acting skills are enough to support them to interpret various roles.

To put it simply, this person is like himself in whatever he plays, but this self can become various types of characters. When he plays a teacher, the audience will think that Chen Daoming should be like this when he is a teacher, but when he plays an emperor, the audience will think that Chen Daoming should be like this when he is an emperor. Such an actor puts his own acting skills above the role, making the role a part of himself, but the core of the body is still himself.

Among the current actors of Huayi Company, Zhou Xun is a representative of this type. Of course, there is still a gap in acting skills between her and Chen Daoming.

The other type of actor is to completely integrate himself into the role, making the role the core, and putting himself into the role wholeheartedly. Nie Wei's acting skills are of this type. There is no need to argue about which one is better. Both are ways to interpret the role. In the end, it depends on the actor's acting skills.

Of course, actors like Brother Long who have played themselves all their lives are also very powerful. There are also Schwarzenegger, Stallone, etc.

"Okay, stop praising. Anyway, it's you who recommended him. I will take care of the resources." Wang Zhonglei said with a smile.

"Well, at his age and experience, don't arrange those unimportant supporting roles for him. He has long passed the time when he needs to hone his acting skills. Now he needs weighty roles to help him build confidence. Only with confidence can he interpret the soul of some wonderful roles."

"In short, arrange two plays for him to play first. Next year, I will help him write a script. Then you will know that I have found a treasure for the company." Having said this, Nie Wei stood up and prepared to say goodbye.

"Hey, don't leave in a hurry. You've finished talking, but I still have things to do." Wang Zhonglei saw this and quickly stopped Nie Wei and asked him, "Besides the heroine, do you know the other roles in the new movie?"
