Chapter 638 Chapter 640, Eat First and Talk Later
No. 20, Nanliu Road
The original western warehouse of the grain depot was transformed into a storefront because it was facing the street.
Steamed bun shops, clothing stores, lottery sales outlets, plumbing and hardware stores, etc. all set up camp here, for no other reason than cheap rent!
But since Bona Film Group, Beijing 18 Cultural Agency, and a large film and television company settled in this ancient grain depot, these miscellaneous and disorderly small shops have gradually disappeared.
In their place are several very distinctive pubs and hot pot restaurants.
It is not that Bona Film Group and these companies are overbearing and drive away all those unhygienic small shops, but the result of market adjustment.
Because since the film and television dramas produced by a large film and television company and Bona Film Group are getting better and better, and their reputation in the industry is getting bigger and bigger, the popularity around here is getting more and more prosperous.
What should students of Beijing Film Academy do if they can't find a crew to act after graduation? Go to the "Grain Depot Gate" to try your luck. What if you meet Sun Hao sitting at the gate of the company playing? !
Students of the Central Academy of Drama are already in their third and fourth years of college, but have never acted in a play. What should they do? Go to the "Grain Office Gate" to take a look. Sun Hao is a direct senior brother, and Zeng Li is a direct senior sister. They can't just watch their alumni live on the streets after graduation, right? !
Extras who make a living at the gate of Beijing Film Studio can't find a job for two or three days in a row. What should they do? Go to the "Grain Office Gate" to take a walk...
It is said that Wang Jinghua, the boss of Beijing Shiba Brokerage Culture Co., Ltd., has a sharp eye and is always good at discovering potential extras, such as Wang Baoqiang, an extra who used to sleep on a tree at the gate of Beijing Film Studio, Zhang Yi, an extra who used to have two steamed buns and a bag of pickles to get by for a day, and Huang Bo, an extra who wanted to apply for Beijing Film Academy but was kicked off the stage by the examiner...
And today, these three guys are here again.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, night falls
Huang Bo, Zhang Yi, and Wang Baoqiang are standing in front of the Yang Xiezi Hot Pot Restaurant, as if they are acting as a welcome for the hotel? !
"Hey, brother, who do you think owns this piece of land opposite the grain depot?
What a pity!
It's so close to the Beijing Film Studio, but it has been abandoned for three or four years. If it were in my hometown of Xing△tai, I guarantee that someone would plant wheat on it in less than half a month." Wang Baoqiang is a down-to-earth person. Even though he has been with Sun Hao for more than a year and has earned more than 200,000 yuan, he still does not change his peasant nature.
"I don't know, maybe they are preparing to build a building?" Zhang Yi didn't talk much, chatting with Wang Baoqiang casually, but his eyes were always looking at Xitucheng Road.
The director is coming from the direction of the Great Hall of the People, which is the only way to go.
"Hehe..."
At this time, Huang Bo smiled, showing his gums.
"Baoqiang, you may not know that this piece of land has been taken by our director. It is said that he wants to build an inn, the kind of antique inn."
"Inn..., what is the purpose of building an inn?
There are so many beautiful hotels on the street, who would stay in those inns full of mosquitoes and flies?" Wang Baoqiang scratched his head, expressing his great incomprehension.
"Then I don't know. Maybe the director has other ideas."
Just as the two were chatting, Lv Haibo, Huang Yi, and Tian Yu walked out of the hot pot restaurant, followed by Deng Chao and Yu Qian.
"What's going on? Hasn't the director arrived yet?"
"No!
Maybe he's attending the premiere of "Hero"?"
"Impossible!"
Yu Qian waved his hand with a cigarette in his mouth.
"Because I've seen it all. As soon as the director stands on the scene, no one else has anything to do. People like Jet Li, Liang Chaowei, and Maggie Cheung all become bleak.
So, no matter what, Director Sun Hao, who is only a supporting role in "Hero", can't stay in the Great Hall of the People anymore."
"Well, Brother Qian's analysis is right!"
Deng Chao felt that he and Yu Qian got along very well and could talk about a lot of things.
"Oh, by the way, Brother Qian, you are the oldest among the actors, why did you want to participate in this variety show at that time?"
"Oh, don't mention it!"
Yu Qian, who likes to play, sighed in front of everyone.
"Didn't I perform crosstalk with a friend from Tianjin last year? As you know, crosstalk has never been a good business. Even if we participate in weddings and funerals, we still can't make enough money.
I don't care. I have a formal unit and several houses at home.
But my friend is a bit miserable. He came to Beijing without his family. He often has to eat one meal a day, and he has to bring a few stupid apprentices with him wherever he goes.
Just a while ago, my friend was suddenly enlightened by a master, saying that if a crosstalk actor wants to earn a high income, he must first make a name for himself, just like teachers Feng and Niu.
So, my friend dragged me to participate in the show, saying that no matter what, at least he can be on TV and increase his fame."
"Then, Brother Qian, what about your friend?" Huang Yi, Lv Haibo, Deng Chao, Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang and others were all curious.
"Hey..., don't mention it!
He was kicked out by Director Jiang Wen at the first round, and after seeing his performance, Director Jiang threatened him on the spot:
It's not that I look down on you, little black fat guy, but if you have any achievements in acting in this life, I will tear my head off and let you kick it like a ball!"
"Hiss..., shit!"
Deng Chao burst out.
How bad must this guy's performance be to make Senior Brother Jiang Wen so angry that he said such vicious words.
However, Tian Yu was very smart and thought of a possibility in an instant.
"Brother Qian, don't tell me that you are going to ask Director Sun Hao to teach your friend in a while?"
"Hehe, I have such an idea!"
Yu Qian is a straightforward person. Seeing that his intention was guessed by others, he admitted the account. However, just when he wanted to make a further explanation, a Mercedes-Benz G500 with a majestic appearance stopped at the door of Li's Lamb Scorpion Hot Pot.
After parking the car, Sun Hao pushed the door and got out of the car.
Before he could observe the surrounding situation, a group of people immediately surrounded him.
"Director, I miss you so much!" Deng Chaoyu.
"Director, what's wrong with you? I have finished "Final Destination" for such a long time, but you still haven't sent me the next invitation." Huang Yi complained with a smile.
"Director, don't worry, I will act when you can remember me?" Lu Haibo said.
"Director, we are the top ten out of 108 actors. You have to make sure that each of us has a role to play in "Journey to the West: Lion Camel Ridge." Tian Yu urged.
………
Ignoring these familiar guys, Sun Hao separated them, shook hands with Yu Qian, whom he met for the first time, and walked into the hot pot restaurant.
For breakfast, two buns and a bowl of porridge; for lunch, just a portion of braised pork and a bottle of beer; plus he had spent so much energy on Zeng Li in the evening, he was already starving.
In a word, no matter what, he had to eat first!
