At ten o'clock in the morning, I woke up in the large flat of Galaxy Bay. After breakfast, I took my assistant back to the company. In the parking lot, I happened to meet Mr. Zhao who was returning from a business trip. "Qi Jia is back. You've worked hard. Hahaha!" "Mr. Zhao is too polite. I have to thank the company for giving me such a learning opportunity." Qi Jia nodded and said neither servilely nor arrogantly. "Oh, you are too modest. Sister Mi is very satisfied with you. I heard from the headquarter leaders that she held a special meeting after she returned and asked all new artists to learn from you. You are amazing now." Mr. Zhao patted Qi Jia's shoulder excitedly and told him vividly, "Qi Jia really didn't know about this. He was also a little surprised when he heard Mr. Zhao talk about it. " "By the way, someone gave me two bottles of good wine on this business trip. Xiao Li, go get one bottle for Qi Jia."

Mr. Zhao suddenly turned his head and said to the driver beside him, then looked at Qi Jia,

"This is a 1982 vintage wine that my friend got from Mouton Rothschild in France through connections. You can try it to celebrate your 10 million fans on the Internet."

Qi Jia didn't know whether Mouton Rothschild was very famous. He had only heard of Lafite from novels, but had never drunk it.

However, looking at the luxurious and stylish packaging, and Mr. Zhao's statement that it was obtained through connections, the value should not be low.

And it was from 1982. I don't know if it tastes good, but just by hearing the year, I know it must be very expensive.

"This is a reward from Mr. Zhao, so I won't be polite. Thank you, Mr. Zhao."

Qi Jia didn't pretend to refuse, but acted flattered and accepted it.

"Haha, don't be polite to me, you are the face of our company now."

Mr. Zhao was obviously very satisfied with Qi Jia's attitude and praised him a few more times.

The two went upstairs, talking and laughing.

Qi Jia asked Liu Yiran to wait for him in the lounge first, and he went to find Chen Yuwen.

Pushing the door open, he saw Chen Yuwen working hard, and the keyboard was clacking as she tapped.

"Sister, I'm back." Qi Jia greeted her.

When Chen Yuwen saw that it was him, she pushed the keyboard with both hands, lay on the chair, and showed an ambiguous smile on her face.

"You're back. I heard that you are very popular with the girls in Beijing Film Academy. What's the name of that newcomer? Zhuang Dafei, right?"

After saying that, she stretched her waist, showing her proud S-shaped curve.

"You know! But you know what, that girl's personality is really likable, I feel she will be popular in the future."

Qi Jia pretended to be surprised, and then objectively expressed his inner thoughts,

"Oh, I really like her, or I will apply to the headquarters to bring her to the branch."

Now it was Chen Yuwen's turn to be surprised. It seemed that Qi Jia was serious. Could it be that she really had to apply to the company?

To be honest, if she really wanted to apply, according to Qi Jia's current popularity and the company's attention to him, it was not impossible.

"Can you pour out the yellow waste in your brain? She is not yet an adult."

Qi Jia looked at the girl unhappily.

"So what!"

Chen Yuwen retorted, but she was secretly relieved in her heart. She was really afraid that Qi Jia would suddenly fall in love and stop working.

After the joke, they got down to business.

Chen Yuwen told Qi Jia that the contract for Flying Life had been signed.

The filming will start on September 20 this year, with a salary of 2 million. Since he is a supporting role, he will not have many scenes.

Chen Yuwen has also negotiated with Director Han that he can finish his scenes first and will not delay other schedules, so he only needs to be with the crew for three days.

"A supporting role gets 2 million! How can it be so high?"

Qi Jia was surprised. Is Director Han's crew so rich?

"It's not that the supporting role gets 2 million! Only the supporting role you play gets 2 million!"

Chen Yuwen corrected, and after saying that, she saw Qi Jia's smug look on her face, and she raised her lips and said meaningfully.

"Is it very cool?"

Qi Jia was very perceptive. As soon as he saw her expression, he knew something was wrong, so he asked.

"Uh, isn't that right?"

Chen Yuwen did not answer directly, but asked,

"Where do you think you are in the industry now?"

Qi Jia thought about it seriously, and then said,

"A first-tier artist but the last one?"

"Yes, but not."

Chen Yuwen did not keep him in suspense any longer, and explained the matter to him directly,

"First of all, in terms of online popularity, you are undoubtedly a first-tier artist now, although you are just the last one."

"But what is the most important thing for capital to evaluate an artist's position? It is the box office appeal! No matter how popular you are, without box office appeal, you are worthless in the eyes of capital. If capital does not recognize you as a first-tier artist, you are nothing.Yes. "

Hearing this, Qi Jia suddenly understood,

In the final analysis, your popularity and fans are all fake in the eyes of capital, and they can be realized by changing the data in the background.

The only thing they recognize is the box office of real money, that is, your personal ability to realize it!

Take the richest man in Xihong City as an example. Although Qi Jia, the supporting role, is more popular online than the leading actor Shen Teng,

But if one day, Qi Jia and Shen Teng both jump out and say, I want to make a new movie,

Do you think the investors will invest in Shen Teng or Qi Jia? Who does the audience want to see first, Shen Teng or Qi Jia?

After all, no matter how good the supporting actors are, they are destined to be the foil of the red flowers!

No matter how explosive your acting skills are, no matter how popular you are, no matter how many fans you have, these capitals don't care.

If you can help them make a lot of money, then you will be treated as a first-line actor. If you can only make a little money, then It can only be the treatment of third- and fourth-tier actors.

These have nothing to do with popularity, fans, or even status and qualifications, only the box office!

For example, take Mr. Chen Baoguo, his acting skills are good,

but he is in the same crew with those popular young actors, and his salary is not as high as theirs, not even half of it,

Is his status not high enough? Is he not working hard enough? None of them, it's just that his commercial value is not as high as that of the young actors.

In the face of market choices, even Stephen Chow has to choose Da Wan Nian to play the leading role,

When facing media interviews, he has to pinch his nose and praise his good acting skills.

Thinking of this, Qi Jia also understood what Chen Yuwen meant, that is, with his current popularity, a salary of two million is actually too little,

but there is no way, his status is there, even if Director Han wants to give him a salary of 10 million, the investors will not agree.

"What's the plan?" Qi Jia leaned forward and asked for advice humbly.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuwen spread his hands and directly gave up,

"I can't do anything about it. ”

“Speak human language!”

“What can I do? First, take on more scripts starring you in the future, and ensure that the box office is at least 500 million or 600 million. Second, pray that the movie “Better Days” starring you this year will be a hit, and the box office will not be less than 500 million.”

“Isn’t there another TV series?” Qi Jia asked curiously.

“The calculation method for TV series and movies is different, so that one will not be counted for the time being.”

Chen Yuwen rubbed his head and said a little tiredly.

“Okay~” Qi Jia was also a little melancholy, lying on the sofa like a salted fish.

Not long after lying down, Chen Yuwen said again.

“By the way, there is a variety show looking for you, do you want to go?”

Hearing that there was work to do, Qi Jia jumped up like a spring.

“What variety show?”

“Longing for Life, haven’t you heard of it?”
