Rebirth 1989: My Unlucky Career

However, because no one has ever approached a TV station to request advertising before, the deputy director does not have a particularly clear understanding of advertising fees.

Compared with the 100,000 yuan share offered by the main station for the two advertisements, Zhao Zhuo's offer of 500,000 yuan was naturally very tempting.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the deputy director's heart will be moved.

"So, Mr. Zhao, when are you going to play the commercial?"

Zhao Zhuo said without thinking:

"The commercials will start playing tonight."

The deputy director was stunned for a moment, then nodded:

"Okay, then give me the video tape of the advertisement, and I will arrange it now."

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment:

"Um...I haven't yet."

The deputy director immediately couldn’t laugh or cry:

"Then why are you playing here?"

Zhao Zhuo smiled and said:

"It's okay, I'm going to shoot now. However, we need a machine from our TV station."

In this era, cameras are very expensive equipment, far beyond the days when you could just take a photo with just a mobile phone.

Therefore, it is completely unnecessary for Zhao Zhuo to buy a camera just to shoot an advertisement.

In order to make money, the deputy director naturally agreed happily.

Then, the deputy director immediately contacted Zhao Zhuo and assigned a photographer and a lighting engineer.

Next, Zhao Zhuo took two people to Fengtian Art College.

The School of Arts has a dedicated performance major.

The group of people carrying the machine had just arrived at the school gate when a girl with a sharp eye came over and asked.

When they learned that they were going to shoot a commercial that would be broadcast on Fengtian TV station, many men and women came forward and expressed their willingness to become actors for free.

After all, everyone who studies acting has a dream of becoming a star.

But in this era when there are very few TV series and movies, it is so difficult to be a star and there is no chance at all.

Now that there is an opportunity to be on TV, and it is a serious Fengtian TV station, everyone is naturally rushing to come.

Zhao Zhuo arranged three boys and three girls based on his own predilections, and went to the TV station's studio to start shooting directly.

In such a short period of time, Zhao Zhuo had already thought of the script.

The time was tight, and the total duration was not very long, so Zhao Zhuo didn't even write a storyboard and just started based on his feelings.

After filming started, it was discovered that something went wrong.

Originally, according to Zhao Zhuo's idea, there were three boys and three girls, and as long as one boy and one girl among them were photogenic, then this advertisement would work.

But what people never expected was that three men and three women couldn't do it...

According to the photographer, the traces of performance were too strong, and it looked childish at first glance.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Zhuo was helpless.

I wanted to make do with it, but looking at the exaggerated acting skills of several young boys and girls, Zhao Zhuo himself couldn't overcome the hurdle in his heart.

In desperation, Zhao Zhuo had no choice but to give up and gave several people fifty yuan each.

After all, people don’t need money to film, just to be on TV.

Now that the film has not been completed, Zhao Zhuo cannot let a few people go in vain.

After sending several students away, Zhao Zhuo scratched his head helplessly and could not think of a suitable candidate.

Suddenly, the lighting engineer on the side spoke:

"By the way, Mr. Zhao, I saw that when you demonstrated to them just now, your performance was very good, and there was no trace of deliberateness at all.

How about you just become the leading actor?"

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo was immediately surprised.

He never thought about being on camera.

Unexpectedly, the photographer also said:

"That's right! Your performance just now was indeed very good! And since you thought of the script, you will definitely be more comfortable in acting. You are the most suitable!"

Hearing these two people say this, and the fact that there were really no suitable actors, Zhao Zhuo had no choice but to think:

"Okay, then I'll do it, I'll do it!"

After saying that, Zhao Zhuo was in trouble again:

"But the problem is, even if I am the male lead, there is still no female lead!"

After hearing this, the photographer gave Zhao Zhuo some advice:

"Mr. Zhao, why don't you just find a good friend of yours to be the heroine? As long as it's photogenic!"

Anyway, friends don’t have too many scruples, so the acting becomes more natural. As long as you can lead her acting, the effect is basically no problem."

Zhao Zhuo thought about it for a while and thought about it.

People of the opposite sex are still good friends. After looking through Zhao Zhuo's circle of friends, I'm afraid there is only one suitable candidate, and that is Zhang Yun.

Zhao Zhuo immediately called Zhang Yun:

"Hey, are you still busy?"

Zhang Yun's voice came from the other end of the phone:

"I just finished a little work at hand. You were right before. It will be much easier after delegating power."

Zhao Zhuo was slightly relieved after hearing this, and then explained the purpose of the call:

"Then you come to the TV station."

Zhang Yun asked doubtfully:

"Ah, why should I go to the TV station? You haven't negotiated an advertisement yet?"

Based on Zhao Zhuo's understanding of Zhang Yun, if he told the truth at this time, Zhang Yun would never come!

Therefore, Zhao Zhuo did not say anything clearly, but just said:

"The problem here is a bit tricky and I need you to come over."

Hearing this, Zhang Yun subconsciously thought there was something wrong with the advertising cooperation, so she immediately said:

"Okay, I'll go there now!"

After asking for the address, Zhang Yun quickly hung up the phone.

Lei Lifengxing was probably talking about Zhang Yun. Not long after seeing her, she drove to the studio that Zhao Zhuo mentioned.

After arriving at the designated location, Zhang Yun saw two photographers following Zhao Zhuo, and couldn't help but become confused:

"Isn't there something wrong with the advertisement? You didn't communicate with the TV station leaders. Why are you following other photographers?"

Hearing this, Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly:

"Yes, there is indeed a problem with advertising, but it is not a problem with cooperation.

I have already negotiated the TV station advertising cooperation."

Zhang Yun became even more confused after hearing this:

"Then why did you call me here?"

Only then did Zhao Zhuo tell Zhang Yun about filming the commercial.

After listening, Zhang Yun immediately couldn’t laugh or cry:

"I said you are not joking. I have never filmed any commercials! What's the use of asking me to come?"

Zhao Zhuo shook his head seriously:

“We haven’t done it before, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do it.

Don't think of this as filming a commercial, just think of it as the two of us rehearsing a small show, not with others, it'll be fine, don't be nervous."

Strangely enough, Zhang Yun's nervousness eased a lot when she heard that it was just two people she and Zhao Zhuo were filming.

But soon, Zhang Yun suddenly thought of something and shook her head again.

"No, no, when I think about being on TV, I still feel like it's not possible."
