The future is uncertain, and the second signing turned out to be a scam...
As Wei Jing said himself, after New Year's Day, he stayed in Dengyuan.
Just because he agreed on New Year's Eve, Cheng Sizhou was invited to Heting Manor afterwards.
Mr. Wei does have quite a few antiques, but there are two points: first, most of them are not unearthed cultural relics, but are only traded back and forth between private collectors. It is unknown how many times this resentful president has been ripped off; second, judging from the porcelain alone, most of them are from the mid-Qing Dynasty onwards. At that time, social productivity was relatively high, and the output of various kilns was very large. Some of them are beautiful, but their research value and cultural value are not high.
So, those who play this game are very averse to hearing the truth, and those who can listen to the truth don’t like to play this game.
However, Mr. Wei was wealthy and used to getting whatever he wanted, so he wasn't willing to give up easily. So he first asked how to get unearthed cultural relics, and then asked where to get unearthed cultural relics before the Qing Dynasty.
Cheng Sizhou was speechless and choked, saying that you can't get yourself into jail just for your hobbies. In China, whether it is digging up cultural relics or stealing cultural relics, the sentences are very severe. It is not a trivial matter that can be settled by spending some money.
After that, whenever Wei Jing looked for him again, he would say he was working overtime or had something else to do, and he would put it off as much as he could.
As for Wen Zichuan, the recording of the second season of "Xiao Chongshan" is nearing completion. In addition, he has received dubbing work for two TV drama characters and is currently in contact with a game project.
At noon, Shen Junmeng and Guo Tianrui were both there, and the three brothers had a meal together.
"We can't delay too long. I have something to do in the afternoon and have to go to Xingyu Feiyu." Wen Zichuan said.
"Zichuan, you've been visiting Mr. Wei quite often recently. Are you planning to get into the film and television industry?" Shen Junmeng poured him a glass of juice. "How does that saying go? If you become rich, don't forget me."
"How can it be that easy? I haven't even figured out the dubbing yet, and when the camera comes on me, I get even more panicked." Wen Zichuan picked up the cup, clinked it with the two of them, and took a sip.
"Don't say that. Everyone strives for higher positions. If there's a chance to make money just by showing your face, don't miss it." Guo Tianrui's eyes were sharp. "Let's be frank. How much do actors earn per episode? How much do we earn for dubbing? Dubbing is indeed an art, but you have to have enough to eat before you can pursue art, right?"
Shen Junmeng raised his hand and nudged him, asking him to calm down.
In fact, the "Voice Actor Idol Plan" has been developing with difficulties since its launch. Not only did the company's middle-level managers, including Chen Yilan, raise objections, but even one of the investors, Xingyu Feiyu, reduced its financial support on the grounds of adjusting the investment plan.
As a result, the voice actors who were signed at that time were in an awkward situation. Just like before, if no projects came to them, they could only submit resumes and audition on their own. However, they had no teachers or anyone to guide them, and they would not be given priority for particularly good projects.
After all, in an industry, only the top ones can make money.
If you cannot become a leader for the time being, it is best to find a leader to guide you into the industry.
At this point, all three of them were feeling somewhat disheartened. Who hadn't signed up with a dream in mind? Who wouldn't want to leverage the platform's advantages to gain more popularity and followers? If Second Voice didn't plan to increase its investment and revitalize the entire plan, it would be nothing less than a scam.
"No matter what, Zichuan is the best developed among us, right?" Guo Tianrui looked at Wen Zichuan, then at Shen Junmeng.
"Of course, he has projects one after another, and he is close to President Wei. Unlike us, we run into obstacles everywhere." Shen Junmeng's envy was almost overflowing.
"Your work and live broadcasts are all great," Wen Zichuan said, not being used to being flattered. "At most, I'm just a little luckier."
If he was unlucky and met Mr. Wei, a man who was lustful and did whatever he wanted, his whole life would probably be ruined, and he would not be able to sit here safely and discuss the future with them.
"I may not be here next year." Guo Tianrui put down the cup and said suddenly.
"Ah, you're leaving?" Shen Junmeng was shocked and surprised. You know, when they signed the contract, they had attached a contract term and a breach of contract clause.
"It's still in the planning stages, but it's almost done." Guo Tianrui has a straightforward personality and speaks his mind. Occasionally, when he encounters something unpleasant, he moves on from it and never takes it to heart. "I have a little savings, and combined with what I've saved over the past six months, it's enough to pay the penalty. After the New Year, I want to give Teacher An a try. As long as he's willing to take me in, I'd be willing to work like a slave for him."
"Wow! Really?" Shen Junmeng's eyes lit up as he listened. "I've heard that as long as there's a good project and he finds Teacher An, he'll definitely give priority to his subordinates."
"Do I need to hear more? Isn't it "Xiao Chongshan"?" Guo Tianrui said, looking at Wen Zichuan again.
"Xiao Chongshan" is the annual drama adapted by the Second Voice. At the beginning of the script creation, it was positioned as a hit to be broadcast.
In order to ensure the quality of the show, Chen Yilan specially invited An Jie to be the dubbing director. If one of the newly recruited voice actors of the Second Voice can play a leading role, and if combined with the creation of character settings and joint publicity, the "Voice Actor Idol Project" will not develop into such a dead name.
But there are no assumptions or ifs in history. If you don’t have enough strength, you will miss it.
Of course, after the audition, Anjie immediately recommended the person he led to play the leading role. In the end, the person performed very well, and his popularity and value saw a qualitative improvement.
Wen Zichuan was a little distracted, but there was a reason for his distraction: "Have you saved up enough for the liquidated damages in half a year? Can you tell me how much it is?"
"One hundred thousand? What's wrong?" Guo Tianrui said directly.
"Yes, I also have 100,000." Shen Junmeng added.
One hundred thousand.
They are all one hundred thousand.
And I have five million.
Wen Zichuan's face turned extremely ugly. He signed with the Second Sheng when he had no other choice. He was burdened with huge pressure of breach of contract, which made him unable to resist any arrangements of the company.
Guo Tianrui can stop loss, Shen Junmeng can stop loss, only he can't.
If the "Voice Actor Idol Plan" is a scam, then the deception and exploitation of it had already started when Yaya Yiyu went bankrupt!
"Hey! Where are you going? We haven't finished our meal yet!"
"Sorry, I have something to do. I'll call you later."
Ignoring the questioning from Guo and Chen, Wen Zichuan quickly ran back to the company, intending to ask President Jin and Mu Qi face to face about everything!
He wanted to know what he owed them?! Why should he be manipulated by them like this?!
"Ouch--!"
Wen Zichuan was walking too fast and bumped into someone unexpectedly when he turned the corner.
"Teacher Wen?" Su Zhuo climbed up and rubbed his sore butt. "I was just about to go look for you."
"You came out of President Jin's office? He's in there, right?" Wen Zichuan couldn't control his inner anxiety.
"Mr. Jin is not here. It's because he was not here this afternoon that you asked me to follow you to Mr. Wei." Su Zhuo was holding a thick stack of information, probably to hand over some business documents.
Wen Zichuan stopped where he was, took two deep breaths, and reflected on whether he was too impulsive.
Whether Mr. Jin was using him or deceiving him, he must have his reasons. And since he was here and could find him at any time, it also proved that Mr. Jin was not afraid of his questioning, nor did he care about his thoughts.
The relationship between them is that of boss and employee, there is no equality at all. Even if Wen Zichuan exposes it, there is nothing he can do.
Yes, Mr. Wei.
Su Zhuo reminded him that they were about to meet Wei Jing.
According to recent observations, President Wei is the one that President Jin is trying hard to please, and the scale of Xingyu Feiyu's industry far exceeds that of the Second Sheng. President Jin urgently needs to deepen cooperation with President Wei, and even came up with the stupid idea of "packing" himself and sending himself to Wei Jing's bed.
So, can he take advantage of Mr. Wei's power and use it to fight back against Mr. Jin and get him to change the penalty of 5 million?
But I've only met Mr. Wei twice, so we're not that close. Can Mr. Wei help me? Or would it be easier to start with Wei Xiaoming?
"What's wrong with you, Teacher Wen?" Su Zhuo noticed that he was not in a good state, so he quickly sent him to the tea room and poured him a glass of water.
"I'm fine. Let's go to Xingyu Feiyu." Wen Zichuan said.
On New Year's Eve, unlike the sweet date between Wen and Cheng, Wei Xiaoming was almost injured and was pulled out by Wei Jing and severely scolded.
Finally, to appease them, he took them to the Meng's Villa and booked the entire place, prepared a delicious hot spring supper, and arranged an extremely romantic fireworks show.
When Wen Zichuan and Su Zhuo arrived, Lan Qin came to greet them personally and told them that President Wei was in a bad mood and it would be best to agree with him if they had anything to say.
Su Zhuo was as obedient as a little deer, and nodded to the capable and beautiful assistant sister.
Wen Zichuan didn't show much expression and followed Lan Qin into Wei Jing's office.
In the office, Wei Jing was leaning against the large boss chair with a serious expression.
On the sofa opposite, Wei Xiaoming, who was also in a bad mood, sat on one side, and Xingyu Feiyu's agent, Xie Bing, sat on the other side.
"Come on, sit down." Wei Jing said concisely.
It was Su Zhuo’s first time here, and the high-quality soft leather sofa felt like it had thorns on it. He couldn’t sit comfortably no matter how hard he tried, so he had to subconsciously move closer to Wen Zichuan.
"Boss Wei, I've read all of these scripts and screened them." Xie Bing had come all the way from the capital to report on his work. "There's a youth campus drama, a sweet romance drama about ancient costumes, which are relatively easy to perform. The middle one is a Republican-era spy drama, which is a bit more challenging. And finally..."
"Why are you hesitating? Go on."
"The last two are the most likely to become dark horses, dual-male lead dramas."
Xie Bing knew everything about his boss even though he didn't say it. Just looking at the resources the company provided to the artists, apart from Wei Xiaoming, there was no one else who was treated so well.
Young Master Wei was filming while studying, and it was good enough for him to join a crew a year, not to mention that he could also choose the scripts and even the actors he liked to work with.
That is to say, they were not photographed by the paparazzi, otherwise who knows how big a commotion it would cause. So even though these dual-male lead dramas are written very cleanly, Xie Bing is not completely sure whether President Wei will mind.
"Stop picking your fingers and tell me which one you like?" Wei Jing stared at Wei Xiaoming.
"Anyway, I won't act with any young actresses from professional schools," Wei Xiaoming said with a gloomy face. "They look down on me and always say bad things about me."
"Then you should study hard and make others respect you! They asked them to work with you just to guide you and let you gain more experience. Can't you stand a few bad words from them?!"
"What's the point of me studying hard?! As long as I'm your godson, people will always say that I got things that don't belong to me because of your connections!"
