Stars of China Entertainment

Chapter 5 Launch Conference

Taking makeup photos, signing contracts, negotiating remuneration...a series of processes kept Cheng Shuo extremely busy.

In 2008, prices had not skyrocketed yet, so the salary was naturally much less than it would be ten years later.

Take the Fairy Sword crew as an example. On average, extras only earn 30 yuan a day, and every hour after eight hours is calculated as 5 yuan. There can be more actors in the crew, but they are paid on a monthly basis.

On the one hand, prices are so high, and on the other hand, the crew of "Sword and Sword III" really don't have much money.

So when it came to salary, Cheng Shuo didn't expect too much.

The shooting lasted about three months. Cheng Shuo did some calculations. After deducting various expenses during these three months and including taxes, he ended up pocketing just over 40,000 yuan.

For a moment, he felt nostalgic for future generations. Chonglou was already an important role, but it was still not as high as the salary of a marginal character in later generations.

Although this was already a huge sum of money for him who was in poverty, it still fell far behind his plan.

Now is the period when piracy is rampant, but all the actors have come up with two singles to test the waters.

Without him, you have to devote time to filming acting works. There are no national variety shows now, which leads to a vacuum period for actors that is too long and unable to continue to accumulate fans.

So even if they can't repay their money by releasing songs, they are still willing to take a chance.

What Cheng Shuo is worried about is not the issue of getting back his capital, the problem is that he has no capital at all now.

Recording an album requires studio time, arrangement, post-production, copyright registration and recording costs, and it costs a minimum of 150,000, not counting publicity.

Cheng Shuo rubbed his palms in frustration, he still had to make money.

Alternatively, signing with a company is also a good choice.

...

The launch conference of "Legend of Sword and Fairy III" was packed with people.

After all, with the first part being the first, the third part has naturally attracted enough attention.

People say that you should respect Luo Shan first and then others. Cheng Shuo, who took off his simple casual clothes and put on the makeup in the play, actually attracted a lot of attention.

Different from the original look, Cheng Shuo's outfit is more fitted.

Her red hair hangs down naturally, with her ears exposed. She wears a belt that protects her crotch, and her long boots reach to her knees.

Different from the costumes of many people around him, his outfit was so different from the traditional costume style that even the other actors on the stage frequently looked at him.

"It's very similar."

Yang Mi nodded her chin and looked up and down at Cheng Shuo's outfit.

She joined the group relatively late, and this was the first time she saw Cheng Shuo's makeup photos.

Everyone's makeup was adapted to the actor's own conditions, and only he fully restored the original work.

Apart from the pitch-black color scheme, it looks like a character straight out of a game.

She has some taste for it. As a big fan of the original work, the thing she can't accept the most is that her character Xuejian has wavy hair like instant noodles.

While the reporter's attention was on Hu Ge, Yang Mi pulled Tang Yan's arm with a gossip, "Sister, you are so lucky, Xu Changqing and Chonglou are both so handsome."

The two of them were whispering, but Cheng Shuo didn't listen.

At this moment, I looked at my nose, nose and heart, full of expectations for the launch banquet.

He had not seen any meat or fish in his stomach for half a month, and he just wanted to give his suffering stomach a good treat.

Hu Ge's answers were still calm, and it was obvious that the car accident had a great impact on him. Standing on the stage, he turned his body slightly sideways and subconsciously exposed the left half of his face, while the right half of his face was still pressed under the long hair.

Under the bangs.

When he was being interviewed, he was one step ahead of everyone. He turned his body slightly, tilted his head slightly, and met Cheng Shuo's gaze.

He couldn't help but take a look at Cheng Shuo's attire, and then it fell on his face.

Although the hair is full of long hair, it is all neatly combed back, revealing a clear hairline.

He was about to take a closer look, but suddenly realized that his bangs were blocking part of his sight, and a feeling of loneliness suddenly appeared on his face.

Immediately, he turned around and smiled, "Don't just ask me, I can't even answer you."

Everyone also suddenly remembered that they had indeed left others out in the cold by asking for so long.

Unfortunately, Hu Ge had been cultivating for so long, and with the IP of Fairy Sword, he really attracted a lot of attention, so he suddenly asked more questions.

His reminder was, on the one hand, a tactful expression of his rejection, and at the same time, it also gave the other actors enough time to show their faces.

With a smile on his face, he slowly retreated to the crowd and said, "We have a lot of newcomers in this show, so please give us some encouragement."

As he said that, his eyes were directed to Cheng Shuo at the end on the right.

Hearing the applause, Cheng Shuo finally came back to his senses.

He raised his hand and said hello, "Hello everyone, my name is Cheng Shuo, and I play the role of Chonglou in Sword and Sword III."

Seeing that he was about to stop after introducing himself and let the topic pass, Yang Mi quickly poked behind him, "Go on, introduce the characters and give us time to think of words."

Cheng Shuo touched his nose and said, "The character Chonglou is very strong, but I read the script and it doesn't seem that strong. How should I put it, the filter is broken."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Hu Ge laughed heartily. He had the same experience when the first movie was released.

He was also criticized by game fans for making too many changes to the script. When he saw Cheng Shuo's helpless expression, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

The media in the audience did not smile like him, but bypassed Cheng Shuo, the real owner, and directly pointed their finger at director Li Guoli.

"I heard that you had contacted Wanwan actor Huang Zhiwei before, so why did you finally choose a pure newcomer?"

Old God Li Guoli raised the microphone on the ground, "Of course Huang Zhiwei is also very good. I took the photos of the two of them and posted a vote in the group. Everyone agreed that Cheng Shuo's image was better, so we chose him."

He paused, feeling that there might be some ambiguity in what he said, so he added: "Only for the character Chonglou."

What he said was very fair and he didn't mention the difference in pay between the two at all.

"So will height be one of your considerations in casting?"

Li Guoli is a native of Xiangjiang, and his accent is always a problem. He always answers questions slowly and calmly.

But once the other party is aggressive, his reaction is a little slow.

Before he could say anything, Hu Ge was the first to react, "Of course not! The original Sedum is 1.73 meters tall. Considering my height, I won't be able to play the role."

When he said this, he rolled his eyes at the right time, and his words were offensive, but his expression was very funny, which actually made everyone on the stage and the audience burst into laughter.

Cheng Shuo did not rush to be the first person in the entertainment industry. Although the entertainment industry is a personal business, he does not want to ride on all the popularity.

As long as someone can take care of such a trivial matter for you, you don't have to show yourself off.

However, seeing Hu Ge coming to his rescue, Cheng Shuo still gave him a look of thanks.

It's trivial.

Cheng Shuo also caught the meaning in the other person's eyes.

"Kacha."

The shutter sounded, and the lively interaction between the two was clearly captured by the camera.
