Artists under the Rebirth of the Coal Boss

Chapter 11: INFP Mediator
In 2009, this was one of the hottest events in the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy.

This is the story of Tan Songyun, a student from the 07 vocational school class, who bravely entered Hengdian and suffered a disastrous defeat...

This incident prompted the Beijing Film Academy to promote enrollment reforms at the higher vocational (junior college) level, optimize the school structure, significantly reduce the number of students enrolled in higher vocational schools, and concentrate teaching resources on undergraduate and graduate education.

…………

Those special extras in Hengdian who have made a name for themselves through their own independent ways have all worked on countless film sets and fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

These people not only have acting skills, but are also very good at socializing.

Men can drink, women dare to take off their clothes...

Teachers at the academy often emphasize that in the current capital market environment, professionally trained artists can only leverage their systematic resource advantages by signing with a reliable film and television company...

The current Jinyuan Huwei Coal Industry Art Troupe is a completely makeshift troupe and is obviously not the reliable film and television company that the teachers at the Film Academy mentioned.

…………

Zhu Yilong hesitated for a moment and said, "Last week, I promised my agent, Brother Ye, that I would stay in the group for another six months..."

Seeing that Zhu Yilong was a little shaken, Bai Caiyun quickly added fuel to the fire and said:
"Yilong, that unconventional coal boss agency is worlds apart from a professional and rigorous film and television company like ours, both in terms of professionalism and entertainment industry resources."

"Don't be stupid. There's no point in signing a contract with that kind of agency. They might have already run away in half a year."

Zhu Yilong said: "Boss Bai, we have already terminated the contract. It's not a contractual matter."

Bai Caiyun was delighted when she heard this and said, "It's good that there's no contract. That way there won't be any problems."

"Yilong, you are just too stupid and naive. Many things in the entertainment industry are just casual talk. How can you take them seriously?"

Lin Xingzhuo interrupted and said, "Are you just saying the resources of 'Star Turn' casually?"

Bai Caiyun replied impatiently, "The producer and I are classmates. The competition for resources on variety shows like this is all about connections..."

Lin Xingzhuo said: "The regular guest for that program has been confirmed, it's Xiao Shenyang."

Bai Caiyun's face suddenly changed. This was news that Liaodong TV had not yet made public.

This little bastard!

There must be some resource channels from Liaodong TV, who is playing the pig and eating the tiger here!
As the founder of Oriental Caiyun International Film and Television Company, Bai Caiyun will certainly not fall into the trap of self-proof.

Instead, she became emotional and accused him, "Your level has no idea how much effort and resources it takes to secure a spot on a satellite TV variety show!"

"Yilong, our company went back and forth to Shengjing six times to secure this resource, and even had to go to the hospital for IV drip..."

…………

Zhu Yillong saw Bai Caiyun's excitement, and thought about the last time at the business KTV, when Lin Xingzhuo accurately mentioned the Document No. 10 incident, and it was obvious that there was some special information channel.

Now Mr. Bai only talks about hard work, but does not respond directly to Xiao Shenyang's matter.

It seems that the matter of regular guests for "Star Turn" is most likely over...

Zhu Yillong is still self-aware. The 09 Spring Festival Gala sketch "We're Not Short of Money" is one of the most efficiently disseminated programs in the history of the Spring Festival Gala.

Xiao Shenyang is now very popular all over the country, and he is even more invincible in his base camp, Liaodong Province.

…………

Lin Xingzhuo continued to complain: "They give so many resources, paint so many rosy pictures, and give their heart and soul, but they won't pay."

Bai Caiyun was completely furious and said, "What do you mean?! Yilong, look at this art troupe, what low-quality artists are there!"

Zhu Yilong looked embarrassed and said, "Boss Bai, I promised to wait for half a year."

Lin Xingzhuo also said, "Yes, this is not in line with the code of conduct! Besides, a large professional film and television company like yours should also have some sense of contract!"

Bai Caiyun said, "Yilong, a legitimate professional artist like you, and a reputable company like Oriental Caiyun International Film and Television, don't need to argue about ethics with a shady company like this!"

"We're in a society ruled by law now. We didn't sign a contract, so what's the point of talking about the spirit of contract?! They can't do anything to you!"

Bai Caiyun draws a pie, and Lin Xingzhuo smears some shit on it.

Under this passive rhythm, the plan to sign Zhu Yillong was completely ruined.

Bai Caiyun suffered backlash, her Taoist heart was shattered, and she began to reveal the appearance of a small capitalist in the entertainment industry.

Lin Xingzhuo simply said, "Boss Bai! Stop talking! Even if I tell you the principles of a man, you won't understand!"

From the moral high ground, he urinated on Bai Caiyun's face.

Lin Xingzhuo immediately dragged the bewildered Zhu Yilong away, leaving Bai Caiyun speechless and stunned...

……………………Back to the vicinity of Liuli Bridge, there is a Dai girl on the second floor of the Huatang Shopping Mall on Fengtai North Road.

Lin Xingzhuo treated Zhu Yillong to a Dai girl hotpot meal.

According to the previous life, Oriental Color Rhythm International Film and Television Company reported to the Film and Television Drama Department Review Department, the production unit filing information,

Lin Xingzhuo carefully examined this company according to the audit logic of the audit department in evaluating production units.

…………

This is a typical family-owned film and television production company in the entertainment industry.

Bai Caiyun is the president. Her husband used to work in civil engineering and is now an art director.

It started out with the legal column "Lawyer's Viewpoint", and since then its themes have mostly been low-cost, low-quality melodramas.

The script repeatedly uses routines such as "triangle love", "recognizing the thief as the father", and "green ethics"...

Four officially signed artists use a fixed salary system, and a bunch of batch-signed artists use a no-base salary system, slowly working their way through the process, waiting for the gold coins to explode if they breach the contract...

In his previous life, Zhu Yillong worked stupidly for ten years and took on a lot of roles in rubbish film and television dramas.

For example, frequently playing strange roles such as savages in low-budget digital movies consumes a lot of professional value.

……

Zhu Yilong, a rookie who had just stepped out of the ivory tower, was stunned by what he heard.

According to Lin Xingzhuo.

Don't be fooled by the exaggerated words of those presidents, directors, and producers. In fact, more than 80% of the film and television companies in the Chinese entertainment industry are just like this cross-slope Sun Erniang-style husband-and-wife shop.
Zhu Yilong felt that Lin Xingzhuo was too extreme...

In fact, Lin Xingzhuo, who had looked at the General Administration's filing database, had already kept it to himself.

The world is a huge makeshift troupe, and the entertainment industry is the fan drama group within this makeshift troupe.

…………

When Lin Xingzhuo was eating Dai girl.

I specifically ordered a super spicy hot pot base, as well as a bunch of beef, mutton, enoki mushrooms, and ice-cold bulk Shuanghesheng Five Star Beer. I wanted to lock Zhu Yilong in the toilet for the next two days to let this kid calm down.

Unexpectedly, the next day, Zhu Yillong drank a packet of montmorillonite powder and broke out of the toilet seal. He sent a text message to Lin Xingzhuo and went to Oriental Caiyun International Film and Television Company.

Lin Xingzhuo looked at the text message on the Nokia and did not try to dissuade him.

…………

When he was a sophomore, Zhu Yilong was doing a life observation assignment that involved a crime theme.

This young man went to the urban-rural junction of Xiangshan and Tiancun in Haidian, observed the pickpockets at work, and offended some gangsters.

A 19-year-old introverted college student studying in a foreign city, in a metropolis like the capital, was bound to be in a state of embarrassment when faced with such a situation...

In the end, it was Bai Caiyun's husband who said hello and settled the matter.

This is considered a favor owed to a great person.

…………

In the entertainment industry, character determines destiny.

In 2021, the Chen Sa incident triggered public opinion across the society.

Film and television companies have added moral clauses to artist contracts.

When the TV Drama Department and the Film Department accept project applications, they also require that the MBT psychological assessment tool report be added to the "Actor Performance Description" materials in the preliminary review stage.

…………

According to the MBT psychological assessment part of "Actor Performance Explanation" submitted by the crew of "Her" in the preliminary review in May 2021.

Zhu Yilong is a typical INFP mediator.

With a touch of surrealism, it emphasizes moral responsibility and self-sacrifice.

Therefore, the trap set by Bai Caiyun was an open conspiracy.

It cannot be stopped.

Only Zhu Yilong, who had just stepped out of the ivory tower, could face the reality...
