The story of the boss after retirement

Director Lin Fang is the ceiling director of domestic idol dramas. She has seen countless actors. The most important thing for the male lead in those idol dramas is to be handsome and have a sense of atmosphere, otherwise the audience will not be able to get into the drama. Other factors have to be coordinated by many parties. Even with Lin Fang's current status, she still has to make way for capital. There is nothing she can do about it.

Director Lin Fang was originally ready to retire. Although she is only sixty years old, each generation in the circle is worse than the previous one, and she is getting worse and worse. Not only are the scripts bad, but the actors are also not motivated. She doesn't want to ruin her reputation. If she shoots according to the current standards, she might as well retire to avoid ruining her reputation. The older generation cares a lot about reputation. She has everything and doesn't want to ruin her reputation and make money.

At this time, Lin Yi came to the door with a good script, sufficient funds, and very specific requirements. Lin Yi was very sincere and even more demanding than her as a director, so Director Lin Fang agreed to shoot the drama.

After all, she had been filming for so long, and she felt a little lonely when she stopped all of a sudden. Her daughter pursued her dream and traveled around the world as a travel writer. Her husband was a professor at the School of Physics and was re-employed after retirement. Everyone had something to do. She had been filming TV series for a lifetime and still wanted to continue her career, so she simply postponed her retirement and used her remaining energy.

As a female director, Director Lin Fang has a good temper, but she has very strict requirements on the camera. Every scene has to be polished several times. She is famous for her slow work and fine work. Her urban idol drama also takes half a year to shoot. If she hadn't entered this industry very early, the atmosphere in the circle was very simple at that time, and she later made a name for herself. According to the current speed at which stars make money, who would be willing to spend so much time with you on the crew?

Many people basically enter the circle just to make money. Maybe some people love performing, but most of them go to perform in dramas. It is rare for this generation to have grassroots people who can make a name for themselves and have a long-term success. Of course, there are people with good tempers, good character and everything else, but there are only a few of them. Those who have made it also cherish their reputation and do not want to damage their reputation because of capital, unless special circumstances occur.

This is an urban idol drama directed by Lin Fang. There are many young people in the drama. Capital likes this kind of drama the most because it is convenient to promote people. If the drama is popular, the company will make a lot of money. It is a profitable business. One person can drive the entire company. That's why they want to put the people they want to promote in their company into this crew. The chance of this crew becoming popular is too high.

As long as the drama is popular, the actors will have fans. As long as the fans are numerous and loyal, and their purchasing power is strong enough to make businesses see your value, then there will be no shortage of advertising endorsements and drama shoots, because there will be people willing to pay.

Li Wei thought it was fun to watch other people auditioning, but after sitting here for so long, how did the auditioning male actors manage to tilt their heads up at a 45-degree angle? And that greasy smile, no wonder she hadn't watched a play for so long, it turns out that all the actors are like this now.

Even if Li Wei watches TV series, she only watches old ones. The plots of old dramas are compact. In just thirty episodes, they tell the stories of five couples, including stories about fighting for family property and oolong marriages. There are never any misunderstandings between the male and female protagonists, and everything is clearly stated from beginning to end. It is much better than the current TV series that tell the same story over and over again in sixty episodes.

I don’t know if it’s a problem with the editing or the broadcast arrangements of TV dramas nowadays, but the first ten minutes of each episode repeat the plot of the previous episode. The actual plot of this episode only adds up to twenty minutes, and there are all kinds of advertisements mixed in. Li Wei even suspects that the dramas are made for advertisers. I get so bored watching them that I want to sleep. These dramas are good for hypnosis.

Although Li Wei found it boring, since she was there, she decided to finish watching the batch in the morning and then come back to watch when Lin Yi made her final choice. Otherwise, it would be too much for her eyes to come here every day.

Li Wei rubbed her eyes slightly, and Su Tu considerately took out individually packaged disposable eye drops. His bag now has everything, basically everything. Lin Le's cheeks were puffed up again, but considering the current situation, he could only digest the anger himself.

Lin Le looked down at himself. He came in empty-handed. Su Tu was carrying a small bag. At that time, he laughed at Su Tu for being sissy. Who knew that his small bag was full of everything. There was everything he thought he would need, including wet wipes, alcohol disinfectant, nail clippers, hemostatic patches, medicine for bruises and sprains, etc. He even prepared sanitary napkins. I won't go into the process of how he carefully considered the purchase.

"Maybe you are right. I haven't adapted yet from the big meal to the light vegetable porridge. I hope the next person can give me some support." Lin Yi sat up straight and was about to start a new round of auditions.

"Hello, teachers. My name is Liu Shaoyang. Today I'm auditioning for the role of Xu Jin." Liu Shaoyang came in. He was auditioning for male number four, Xu Jin. This character was very likable. He was the male lead's younger brother. He was very close to his outstanding older brother, but also a little jealous. He was sharp-tongued towards the female lead, but would secretly help her. He was a tsundere character who said one thing and thought another.

As soon as Liu Shaoyang came in, he saw Su Tu sitting next to Lin Le. Su Tu was not a staff member, but an examiner sitting in the examiner's seat looking at him. This made Liu Shaoyang feel a little uncomfortable. Who on earth did Su Tu rely on? It turned out that people with good looks have more opportunities.

Su Tu had no impression of this former colleague. He didn't remember anyone from the former company at all, except the neighbor uncle and the bald shareholder. He had been looking at Li Wei with concern. He always remembered that he was the assistant of the senior sister, and he was accompanying the senior sister to watch the audition today. He didn't care about anything else.

Although Liu Shaoyang was a little unbalanced, he inexplicably fit in with the audition crew today. The feeling he had when he saw the male lead sitting in the chairman's seat was exactly the same feeling he had when he saw Su Tu now. The complex emotions were released all at once. Director Lin Fang nodded when she saw it. He looked good and was able to express the most complex emotions in this scene, so he could keep it for the second interview.

It is still rare to find people with both a good image and good acting skills in the circle nowadays. After all, the popular ones all go to shoot variety shows or fairy tale dramas, and few people can calm down. Even if you have the desire to pursue your goals and the company wants to make money, the capitalists will only work hard to make money when you are popular.

Liu Shaoyang was very happy when he received the information of the second interview, but when he thought that he had accidentally achieved the emotion the director wanted because of meeting Su Tu, Liu Shaoyang's happiness was discounted. Now there is still one thing, that is, whether he should tell his agent that he met Su Tu. The bald shareholder unilaterally banned Su Tu, but Su Tu seemed to be hooking up with an incredible figure.

Liu Shaoyang is certainly not a moral role model, and he envies Su Tu's good luck, because he can see at a glance that Su Tu has a close relationship with the girl next to him. The director and the producer respect her so much. This girl must have a very powerful background. But he is an artist of Starlight. If he joins the group, his agent and the company will also know that Su Tu is here. What should he do then?

Liu Shaoyang was in a dilemma. On the one hand, there was Su Tu, whom he could not afford to offend. On the other hand, there was the company, his employer. No matter what choice he made, it would be wrong. Finally, looking at the agent who came to pick him up, Liu Shaoyang finally said it out.

Between the company and Su Tu, whose background is still unknown, he decided to choose the company. It would be better for the county magistrate to be in charge now. Besides, he just told the company that he met Su Tu, not that he was going to harm Su Tu, so there was nothing to worry about.

"What?! You met Su Tu! He was sitting in the examiner's seat!" The agent was indeed surprised and immediately reported it to the company. After all, Su Tu and the company did not terminate the contract peacefully. Soon Liu Shaoyang was summoned by the bald shareholder. He told the whole process of his meeting Su Tu in detail. Of course, he did not tell the company about his speculation about Su Tu and Li Wei.

Those were all his guesses. There were so many different kinds of news in the circle, and they were not necessarily all true or false, or half true or half false. Anyway, true and false were all what he thought. Sometimes the real would become false, and the false would become real. It all depended on his ability to distinguish.

The agent not only told the bald shareholder, he also told the company's artist director. The current situation of Su Tu is unclear. If he has an important role in the "Stars" crew and he becomes popular again, there is a high probability that he will retaliate against their company. After all, the termination of the contract showed that Su Tu is a very stubborn person. The company needs to make a good assessment and either prevent Su Tu from exploding. If they can't suppress Su Tu, they can only make peace in the end.

Xingguang naturally wanted to suppress Su Tu, so that there would be one less potential enemy. It would be better not to give such a guilty person a chance to stand out, but they were also afraid that there might be a big boss behind Su Tu, so they could only make preparations for both situations.

It’s just that Xingguang seems to have been arrogant for too long. They think that as long as they make peace, Su Tu will accept it. After all, Xingguang has a certain status in the circle, and they have people above them to protect them. But people always have to pay the price for what they have done.
