Chapter 249: Forced to sign the agreement, officially started filming, another real way of expression

~18 min read 3,557 words

While Gu Cheng was cooking, Seeing Jin Li scratched open all the scratch-offs.

She was very casual when scratching cards herself, not scratching and redeeming one by one, but scratching them all open without even looking, scratching one after another.

By the time Gu Cheng finished cooking, Seeing Jin Li had also finished scratching.

Gu Cheng looked over curiously and asked: "I thought you would keep them and scratch them when you wanted to."

Seeing Jin Li gave a hehe smile, "I haven't bought scratch-offs for a long time. If you send money, I won't accept it, but scratch-offs are still fun to play with. Let's play with them while I'm free."

Gu Cheng was a little regretful: "It's not the scratch-offs you chose yourself, the winning rate might not be high."

Seeing Jin Li looked at this very openly, "It doesn't matter, anyway, it's just for fun, whether you win or not depends on fate."

While talking, Gu Cheng touched a scratch-off at random, looked at the numbers above, and couldn't help but pause.

Hmm?

Are there a bit too many repeating numbers?

Looking closely, Gu Cheng suddenly said a number: "One hundred thousand."

Seeing Jin Li had had enough fun scratching, and didn't care whether she won or not, whether she won or not, so she ran to the restaurant to pick up food to eat. She was a little hungry.

Hearing this, she couldn't help but ask: "What?"

Gu Cheng said calmly: "Nothing, you eat first, I'll take a look for you."

He originally wanted to follow over to eat, but he couldn't sit still now, wanting to see all the scratch-offs first.

Picking one at random and winning one hundred thousand, this luck is really unmatched.

Strange, in the past, when they ran announcements, they would buy scratch-offs at lottery stations when they went to a strange city. They didn't buy too many or too few. The four of them bought two thousand yuan each time and shared them to scratch.

They had won hundreds, and the largest was seven or eight thousand, but they had never won tens of thousands.

This time they also found a place to buy at random, took and put them at random, how could Seeing Jin Li scratch a big prize at random.

Gu Cheng looked at the mobile phone Seeing Jin Li put on the table, which was recording the screen, so he simply classified the scratch-offs.

Put the ones that didn't win in a pile, put the ones that won but didn't exceed one hundred in a pile, put the ones that won over one thousand in a pile, and put the ones that won over ten thousand in another pile.

He was like a report officer with no expression, picking up a lottery ticket and reporting a number.

"Fifty thousand." Put in the middle.

"Three thousand." Put on the left.

"Five hundred." Put on the right.

Seeing Jin Li looked at it curiously while eating, feeling that Gu Cheng was like a Doraemon, who could bring down a windfall with a ding.

Ten minutes later, Gu Cheng sorted all the lottery tickets by category and went to eat.

Seeing Jin Li asked at this time: "What were you doing just now, specifically calculating the maximum winning denomination of the lottery tickets?"

She was not very interested in whether she won or not, but Gu Cheng always said tens of thousands, so she thought Gu Cheng was calculating how much the maximum amount in the prize pool area of each scratch-off was.

10W is the largest, others are tens of thousands, and some are thousands.

The amount in the prize pool area is uncertain, and it is normal to be large or small.

Even if the amount in the prize pool area is large, it is useless if you don't win it.

She had scratched the prize pool area with millions before, but unfortunately she didn't win.

No matter how good the luck is, it can't make her a super rich person immediately!

Gu Cheng stared at Seeing Jin Li for a while and said slowly: "It's not the prize pool area."

Seeing Jin Li's eyes widened slightly. Those eyes were very round, just like cat pupils, but when her eyebrows were raised, they carried a trace of charming style, plus the other parts of her facial features were delicate and small, making her face look pure and lustful.

Gu Cheng: "What I reported is not the prize pool amount, but your winning amount."

Seeing Jin Li's eyes widened even more.

"If I heard correctly, you seem to have never said that I didn't win!"

"Yes." Gu Cheng nodded, "So you are one hundred percent hit, scratching without missing, congratulations, Seeing Jin Li."

There was a trace of smile and shock in his eyes, "This time you won 532,560."

Seeing Jin Li was completely silent this time.

Master, thank you for letting the God of Wealth love me again!!

After eating, Gu Cheng didn't stay any longer and found an excuse to leave.

The two had just developed, and no one had poked the thin window paper. He didn't want to be so anxious and put too much pressure on Seeing Jin Li.

When Gu Cheng left, he said: "You rest early today, you have to go to the crew to gather early tomorrow morning. According to my understanding of the director, maybe he will let you film more tense and exciting clips as soon as you come up."

He explained: "Director Yan needs to use these methods to judge whether your acting skills can meet his requirements."

Seeing Jin Li asked curiously: "If I can't meet his requirements, what will he do?"

Gu Cheng pulled the corners of his mouth, his expression a little cold: "Cool mix, now is not the time for him to be picky about actors."

He said seriously: "You don't have to care too much about Director Yan's thoughts. This drama has been tossed until now, it must be filmed, no matter if it is filmed well or badly."

"Now he can't be picky, and he can't have other thoughts."

Seeing Jin Li nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, I have filmed several dramas and know how to get along with directors."

Although she had never encountered a director who pinched her, if she really encountered one, she wouldn't be afraid.

After Gu Cheng left, Seeing Jin Li looked at the scratch-off video she took, her eyes turned, and she sent it to the Pink Girls group and the March Sky chat group.

Seeing Jin Li: 【Brothers and sisters, Happy New Year! Work starts tomorrow, I have nothing to say, let's start with a scratch-off video for everyone!】

Everyone in the group chat received this WeChat message at the same time.

When Gu Cheng took the stairs back to the apartment, he also received this WeChat message.

He took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, his eyes bent, put the mobile phone back in his pocket, didn't click it, and missed the heated discussion in the group.

Qinglian: 【Scratch-off video? Go, this is the winning scene!】

Sister Meng Meng: 【Gu Cheng is also there, I announce, I moved the Civil Affairs... Welfare Lottery Center to you, you redeem the prize on the spot!】

Chen Lin: 【Why!!! Every time I buy scratch-offs, I sincerely hope the God of Wealth will bless me, and I have recited the God of Wealth not 800 times but 1000 times, but Father God of Wealth has never loved me once T^T】

Yan Xingdong: 【Forgive me for being blunt, the red envelopes on the table look a bit familiar, and the style of these scratch-offs, I seem to have seen them somewhere?】

Pearl: 【Where did you buy them, the winning rate is surprisingly high!】

NANA: 【Three seconds, I want to know the address of this lottery station, move all their lottery tickets away】

Gu Cheng: 【@Yan Xingdong @Luo Yi @Chen Lin, you didn't see it wrong, this is the scratch-off you bought yourself, Seeing Jin Li scratched what you bought】

March Sky collectively shocked.

They couldn't help but suspect that the ultimate good luck of this year was concentrated on this batch of scratch-offs, and then Seeing Jin Li picked up a ready-made one.

Life is so wonderful, just like stocks.

Fall as soon as you buy, fly as soon as you sell.

Scratching by yourself without winning a cent, sending it to others and winning the jackpot.

March Sky: I am a clown ^_^

On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, some industries have taken the lead in starting work.

All agents of Tianding Entertainment went to work on this day, but they didn't work, but held several meetings, made summaries and development plans for this year.

As the goals discussed in the meeting became deeper and deeper, the number of people who could stay in the conference room became fewer and fewer.

In the end, those who could continue to stay were all senior backbones in Tianding Entertainment, and these people basically held Tianding's shares.

The president said: "Next, let's proceed to the next meeting, which is the final conclusion about the drama "Assassination"."

"Although it has been decided to add investment, the company's investment money has not been hit on the crew's account. During the New Year these days, I thought of a method..."

Zhang Guang frowned and listened carefully.

At first, he thought Tianding had changed his mind and didn't want to invest in this drama.

The money didn't arrive, everything was hard to say.

But as he listened gradually, his frowned brows stretched out. It turned out to be like this...

Tianding must follow up on this drama that Gu Cheng insisted on investing in, but adding investment for nothing, the president felt it was not cost-effective, so he wanted to sign a talent training agreement with Yan Jianqiao.

The content of the agreement is very simple, which is to let Yan Jianqiao hang on to Tianding Entertainment and become a director trained by Tianding.

If the drama "Assassination" achieves results and becomes popular, then Yan Jianqiao will have to film dramas for Tianding for the next 5 years.

Of course, Yan Jianqiao will definitely be satisfied with the script.

But if the drama "Assassination" doesn't become popular, this talent training agreement will be void. Tianding will not block Yan Jianqiao, nor will it care what drama he wants to film next.

According to the president's meaning, he will also be on the company's investment blacklist, and he won't want to get any investment from Tianding in the future.

According to Zhang Guang's understanding, this talent training agreement is actually a good thing. Yan Jianqiao's cooperation with Tianding is closer, and the company is more bold to invest.

It's just not signing a five-year selling contract, but it doesn't strictly require him to film, and will choose according to his preferences.

But for Yan Jianqiao himself... Zhang Guang shook his head, hard to say.

But no matter what, he is going to run a trip after all. The president hopes to get results today.

Yan Jianqiao's side.

He had rushed back from his hometown and lived in a small apartment to read the script.

He drew a lot of storyboards, trying to draw the pictures he conceived in his mind, and follow his ideas when filming.

This way, the filming speed is fast, and the actors won't know anything.

Hearing the doorbell ring, Yan Jianqiao went to open the door and saw it was Zhang Guang, his heart skipped a beat.

He looked back, there was no one else besides Zhang Guang, and Zhang Guang was holding a thick document in his hand.

Zhang Guang walked in, didn't be polite to him, and made his intention clear.

Yan Jianqiao's face became a little ugly, "Is this your meaning or Gu Cheng's meaning?"

Zhang Guang said lightly: "There is no difference between Tianding and Gu Cheng. If you must ask to the end, Gu Cheng doesn't know about this yet."

Yan Jianqiao snorted coldly, "If Gu Cheng knew, he wouldn't let you come to me. I was willing to film this drama because of my love for the director industry, not because I wanted to sell myself to others."

Zhang Guang smiled and said calmly: "Yan Jianqiao, you are a newcomer director, without a resume or achievements that can be taken out, just relying on a script, you fooled Gu Cheng to be the male lead, and fooled him to invest in you. I haven't said a word."

"But the current situation is that investment needs to see returns. Your project needs Gu Cheng's investment, and it also needs other people's investment."

"Gu Cheng has a good relationship with you and doesn't require you to make other promises, but Tianding Entertainment can't do it. It is an entertainment company and needs to get solid benefits."

Yan Jianqiao took a deep breath and asked: "I just want to know, if I refuse to sign this so-called talent training agreement, what will Tianding do?"

Zhang Guang: "First, withdraw all investment and ask the crew for all investment costs."

"Second, Gu Cheng will not participate in your drama. Although his attitude is very firm, the company's attitude is also very firm. Gu Cheng is just an artist and still needs to listen to the company."

"Third, Tianding will publicize the problems of your drama to the outside world. You are very big, and you may not be able to get other investments."

Yan Jianqiao wanted to quit for a moment, waved his hand and shouted "Whoever wants to film, go film, I won't serve!"

But he suppressed this idea to death.

From the preparation of "Assassination" to now, it has taken two months. He has touched the camera and walked a long way with the crew.

If he hadn't had it before, he might have been able to say lose it easily, but having had it, how could he give it up?

Yan Jianqiao wanted to ask Gu Cheng for help, but soon gave up this idea.

Zhang Guang is right. No matter how powerful Gu Cheng is, he is just an artist of the company. He has to listen to the company.

Yan Jianqiao looked at Zhang Guang deeply, and in a dead silence, suddenly asked: "Brother Guang, if you were my friend, what advice would you give me?"

Zhang Guang thought for a while and said: "Sign!"

"Binding with a big company is not a bad thing. It will be much more convenient to pull funds in the future, and there are many channels that can be used, and the release will also be very simple."

"This is a talent training agreement. The higher the achievements you achieve, the greater the resources the company will give you. When you don't have independent power, what you should learn first is to rely on it, and rely on the big tree to enjoy the cool."

Yan Jianqiao quickly made a decision: "I sign."

After everything was settled, Zhang Guang left Yan Jianqiao's apartment and called Gu Cheng to inform him of the company's decision.

This time he was acting first and reporting later, without contacting Gu Cheng in advance.

This kind of thing is very embarrassing to say in advance, it is better to say it afterwards, and it is more convenient for Gu Cheng to deal with it.

After Gu Cheng finished listening, he said "Hmm", "I know, Brother Guang."

Zhang Guang persuaded: "Don't think that signing a company is a bad thing. Your friend has talent, but he is too arrogant and has high eyes and low hands. If he really has talent, the company is willing to spend money to train him."

Gu Cheng said concisely: "Brother Guang, my relationship with him is not that good."

"Compared to his development prospects, I care more about whether this drama can be filmed smoothly and launched smoothly. If you have any problems, just solve them privately."

Zhang Guang understood Gu Cheng's attitude and felt relieved.

"Okay, I'm just afraid that you will be psychologically uncomfortable. Yan Jianqiao is also a friend you know, but the company is indeed scared by him."

"Actually, the president proposed this talent training plan today, and later proposed another plan, which is a gambling agreement."

"The president came to me to communicate with him. If he refuses to sign the talent training agreement, then he has to sign a gambling agreement."

"The conditions of the gambling agreement are more harsh, so I didn't mention it to him. I'm afraid he will be hot-headed and sign the gambling agreement, losing his family fortune."

Gu Cheng understood: "You did the right thing, he is a very impulsive person. Everyone has their own path to take, I can't manage so much."

The next day, "Assassination" officially started!

The days of starting work after the Spring Festival are either the fifth day of the Lunar New Year or the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. These days are generally good omens.

Perhaps because they just came back from the holiday, everyone in the crew was full of energy, their spirit was very sufficient, their work was powerful, and their efficiency was extremely high.

Seeing Jin Li came to the crew very early to do makeup and styling.

The student styling was very simple, it was done in less than an hour, and then she was called over by Yan Jianqiao to discuss the script for the first day of filming.

After she finished her makeup and styling, Gu Cheng also came to the crew.

He is a male celebrity, his makeup and styling are simpler, and because his skin is good, he doesn't even need to apply powder, just apply lipstick to make his lips look a bit colorful.

When he walked over, he happened to hear the director say to Seeing Jin Li: "This scene is an emotional outburst scene. You will see the cruelty of the abuser and the wailing of the abused. Your emotions are in a state of being on the edge of a cliff, tense and ready to fall at any time. Do you have the confidence to challenge it?"

Seeing Jin Li nodded calmly, didn't give an answer directly, just said: "I'll try."

This response was not as sonorous and powerful as imagined, which made Yan Jianqiao a little uneasy.

In fact, the moment he saw Seeing Jin Li walking out in a school uniform, Yan Jianqiao felt that she was very suitable for playing a student, and a student who was innocent, simple, and innocent.

Such a face, if used to play a villain, can show a kind of extreme contrast, which is very tense.

If playing a victim, it is also easy to make people empathize. Her face is too suitable for roles like pitiful.

So from the appearance, he felt it was suitable to play the heroine Li Feifei.

But acting...

Yan Jianqiao knew that she was nominated for the best supporting actress, and had also seen her performance in "Ruyi Langjun", but that was an ancient drama, and the performance method of modern drama is different from ancient drama.

Yan Jianqiao took a deep breath, didn't dare to think too much, and urged the staff to arrange the scene.

Gu Cheng walked to her side and whispered: "I guessed it right."

Seeing Jin Li smiled and praised him: "You are like a god."

Gu Cheng: "How do you feel?"

Seeing Jin Li: "If I say I'm not nervous at all, will it be a bit pretentious?"

A smile crossed Gu Cheng's lips, "No, your acting skills have always been very good."

The scene was arranged, Yan Jianqiao urged everyone to be in their places, and hit the opening board—

"Action!"

In the classroom with only one high window, the students screamed happily, watching the selected clown being beaten constantly.

Gu Cheng stood on the side playing with a knife, occasionally throwing the knife at people's faces.

The students who were booing around were even more excited.

Seeing Jin Li, who was tied up in the corner, was trembling all over, tears were shaken down, occasionally looking at the scene in the middle, but the next second she immediately lowered her eyes to avoid it, and crystal clear teardrops fell from her face one by one.

Everyone else in the crew stared at this scene nervously.

Seeing Jin Li's performance was completely different from Jian Liting's. Jian Liting's acting skills were very mature and real.

But Seeing Jin Li's performance actually gave people a real feeling as well.

It was as if people with different personalities made different reactions when encountering the same violence.

Some people choose to escape, some people choose to endure, some people choose to resist...

And Seeing Jin Li's reaction was like some kind of frightened stress reaction.

In this scene, Li Feifei, played by Seeing Jin Li, had no lines, but she was completely frightened, trembling and saying: "No, don't, it's not me, don't come over, the next one is not me, it's not me..."

She said while crying.

Crying very beautifully.

It was that kind of miserable and pure beauty. ===== CHAPTER 250 =====
