Chapter 466 It’s really hard to manage
After hearing the introduction, Zhang Yixing opened his mouth in shock. He was busy with work and his daily schedule was full of announcements. Even though he had specifically learned about Chen Jinnian last time because of the artist team's affairs, what he knew was extremely limited.
He immediately said enthusiastically, "Wow, if there is a chance in the future, let's work together. In the meantime, I'll ask the teacher to give me some guidance."
"No, no, no, I'm not a teacher." Chen Jinnian was shocked by Zhang Yixing's attitude and quickly waved his hand to refuse.
"Actually, Yixing is really good. He is obedient and willing to learn. You have a lot of dramas anyway, so give him the ones that are suitable." Huang Lei next to him echoed.
There have been many newcomers in the entertainment industry in recent years, and many of them have become famous, but they all have one common problem, which is that they are extremely arrogant and generally look down on others.
Zhang Yixing is the most satisfying junior that Huang Lei has ever worked with, so he, Huang Bo and Hong Lei are willing to help as much as possible.
"My projects are all very low-investment. I simply can't afford Yixing's price."
Chen Jinnian's eyelids twitched, he knew very well the commercial value of Zhang Yixing. The commercial potential of these four returning EXO members was far ahead among the current young artists. The title of so-called traffic artists was determined precisely because of the influence created by this group of people.
The salary for hiring Zhang Yixing is enough to complete a small or medium-sized investment movie.
"The price is negotiable. As long as the script is good enough, the price is not a problem." Huang Lei continued to persuade with a smile.
But Chen Jin didn't believe a word of it. He was not a novice who knew nothing about the film and television industry. Last year's hit "Mr. Good" had a total production cost of 1.5 million yuan, and that was when Honglei only charged a friendly price.
Among them, Guan Xiaotong's single episode salary was 90. Chen Jinnian didn't believe it was so high, but it was still around or . Zhang Yixing, who has a larger traffic than Guan Xiaotong, would not earn less than one million even if he appeared as a guest star.
If the pay is less than one million per episode, even if Zhang Yixing wants to take it, the company and team behind him will not let him take it.
Therefore, Chen Jinnian estimated that if Zhang Yixing wanted to take on a movie, his market price should be around 50 to 60 million yuan. Even if the friendship price was halved, Chen Jinnian still could not afford it.
In other words, there is no need to spend 30 million for a role that can be done for 3 million. He does not believe that Zhang Yixing's box office appeal can cover the high salary.
But Chen Jinnian did not refuse directly.
"Okay, if there's a suitable role, I'll have the company talk to Yixing's team."
Chen Jinnian said with a smile that he felt that with Zhang Yixing's current team of artists, any offer of a role would be like a drop in the ocean, and it was still unclear whether Zhang Yixing himself would be able to watch it.
It’s just that Zhang Yixing himself has not noticed that his poor team has brought him constraints.
While the few of them were chatting, Honglei and Huang Bo tried many times and finally grabbed a food coupon each.
Huang Bo looked down at the food coupons in his hand, let out a strange cry, and walked over to find Yan Min to argue.
"Hey, why am I still only weighing 24 kilograms? Director, Director, I have two 24-kilogram notes in my hand. Can you exchange them for one 48-kilogram note?"
Hong Lei, whose face was wrinkled with laughter, froze in laughter and shouted hurriedly, "What are you dreaming about, Director? He's cheating. We're not allowed to cheat today."
Honglei grabbed 27 kilograms of food coupons. If Huang Bo could successfully exchange them, he would be at the bottom of the list.
"Hey, Honglei, you still have the nerve to cheat others. Count on your fingers, we have been filming variety shows for so many years, how many times have you been ignorant of the crooked ideas, just picked up the things on the roadside and ran away, and you are so lucky to scold me once."
Huang Bo is a man of sharp tongues and never loses in an argument. He immediately turned around and started arguing with Hong Lei.
Hong Lei just looks fierce. Without using physical force, he really couldn't defeat Huang Bo. He was defeated in just a few rounds and ran to the side to find Huang Lei for off-field assistance.
Seeing that they had finished arguing, Yan Min quickly picked up the loudspeaker and said, "I can't exchange your food coupons for you, but Brother Bo can choose to exchange the food coupons in your right hand for a job, or use the food coupons in your left hand to exchange for a job."
Huang Bo raised his hand and looked at it. "Can there be any difference?"
"There is no difference." After Yan Min finished making this joke, he couldn't help laughing.
Huang Bo was so angry that he turned into a Qingdao noble lady, crumpled one of the food coupons into a ball and threw it at Yan Min's head, but Yan Min dodged it nimbly.
And reminded: "Okay, you guys should go to the factory manager to exchange your job quickly, otherwise there will be no waiting after the deadline."
In the end, Chen Jinnian and Zhang Yixing got jobs as chefs with 33 kilograms of food coupons. Chefs belong to the working class, so they have the highest food rations.
Huang Lei, Xiaozhu and Hong Lei got the cadre positions by using 27 kilograms of food coupons.
Huang Bo was the worst off. He was a temporary worker in the factory and did not have a formal position in the factory.
It was already noon when the program crew finished recording this part of the content and marked the penalty boxes from high to low according to the penalty rules.
After a simple lunch, we continued to record other segments.
The [Work] segment corresponds to a labor competition, and the content of the competition is cooking.
This is a project that accurately taps into the strengths of the two Huangs. Both Huang Bo and Huang Lei have good skills, so everyone strongly requests that they be captains separately.
If two people run in the same team, then the others don't have to play.
The remaining four people, after a fierce game of rock-paper-scissors, were divided into two teams.
Huang Lei, Zhang Yixing, and Xiaozhu are on Team 1;
Huang Bo, Chen Jinnian and Honglei Team 1.
"There are six dishes in total. Which one do you want to choose?" Huang Bo asked, staring at the menu on the blackboard.
"Of course it's sweet and sour pork. In Northeast China, sweet and sour pork is a must-order dish, right, Brother Honglei?" Chen Jinnian shouted without even looking at the blackboard.
"Yes, yes, it must be sweet and sour pork, and blood sausage, that has to be prepared too."
As a native of Harbin, Honglei immediately agreed and gave his own recommendation.
Huang Bo was so angry that he hit the two of them one by one with his hands, "Do you have sweet and sour pork? You two are just clicking randomly. Can you please check the questions? Look carefully, click on the blackboard."
Chen Jinnian only then noticed that a staff member had pushed a blackboard over to him. "Hey, it's a composition topic, Director, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Did you let me say it?" Yan Min stood up angrily. The six of them had not been quiet for a moment since they entered the kitchen.
"Look, there are six dishes here. Each group will take turns choosing three dishes, and then bring the side dishes and finish making them within the specified time."
Chen Jinnian nodded, "I understand, but I have to say this, the chalk writing you guys wrote is quite ugly, can it be edited into the main film?"
After he finished speaking, others also started to comment.
"Indeed, it's really ugly, and there are typos."
“It’s not as good as what I wrote.”
"Why don't you erase it and rewrite it?"
After hearing the chaotic noise, Yan Min knocked on the blackboard with a headache, "Who cares if it's ugly or not? This is a labor competition, not a calligraphy competition."
I can't help but sigh, these guys are really hard to manage!
