Crazy Entertainment System

After much deliberation, Liu Tao accepted Chen Yu's invitation.

Her father's situation had left her emotionally and physically exhausted, but more importantly, it was all orchestrated by her management company. This completely broke her heart.

"It's a pleasure working with you!" Chen Yu said with a smile after Liu Tao signed the document.

“It’s a pleasure working with you, Mr. Chen. Just to clarify, I have another film to shoot, which will take about half a month! Although it’s just a small role, I still hope to stick with it until the end!” Liu Tao said.

“It’s alright, you can continue working on this play. But you’ll need to be free after May 15th because I have something to do then! I’ll be signing up for this year’s sketch comedy and crosstalk competition, and you might have to go with me then,” Chen Yu said.

"You want to participate in a crosstalk and sketch competition?!" Liu Tao looked at Chen Yu in astonishment. This was simply too outrageous. It's not uncommon for singers to become actors, but it's really rare to hear of someone going on to perform sketches and crosstalk.

"What?! Is it not allowed?" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"No, it's just a surprise. Why did you choose the sketch comedy competition first instead of performing a piece?!" Liu Tao quickly shook his head and said.

"It's very simple. Sketches and crosstalk are stage performances, also known as theatrical performances. Theatrical performance art requires actors to have good performance qualities and comprehensive performance skills, while film and television performances do not require such qualities and skills. As long as you perform naturally and instinctively, you can complete the performance tasks in the movie."

Theatrical performance requires actors to complete a play once they step onto the stage, regardless of how many lines or actions they have. This requires actors to have strong and sustained self-control.

The short and discontinuous nature of film and television performances requires actors to get into character immediately, including the mobilization and immersion of emotions, and the capture of the character's state, all of which must be quick and accurate.

This is also a rigorous test of an actor's self-control.

"You should understand what I mean now, right?!" Chen Yu laughed.

"You mean you want to hone your acting skills on this stage?!" Liu Tao asked uncertainly.

"That's right, that's the idea. Theatrical performances are different from film and television performances. Film and television performances can be done multiple times, but stage performance opportunities are only available once."

"It's more challenging. Being young, it's natural to want to take on more difficult challenges. But if we advance smoothly, I'll start filming my first TV series. You might even be one of the female leads!" Chen Yu laughed.

"You're making TV dramas? You mean you want to be a director?!"

Liu Tao thought she had misheard. A singer going directly to become a director? That's a bit far-fetched. Directing is a very profound field of study, requiring knowledge of many things. This is quite a leap in expertise.

“That’s right, I like to challenge myself, that’s what makes it exciting. Go back and prepare well. I’ll help you with the contract termination issue,” Chen Yu said with a smile.

"Yes, thank you!" Liu Tao said earnestly, as if she felt her spring was about to arrive.

"Don't mention it. We're practically family now, and I hope our whole company feels like one big family," Chen Yu said.

"Uh-huh!"

Not long after Liu Tao left, Gao Feiyan came in.

"Gone?!" Gao Feiyan teased.

"Let's go. This is her contract, it's already signed. There's a ten million penalty for breach of contract and 12 million in debt. But I won't give them that ten million so easily. Gather the company's legal department and get ready to work. Tell them our brothers and sisters are in trouble." Chen Yu handed the contract to Gao Feiyan and said.

“12 million in debt, you must be rich. I’m curious what’s so great about her that makes you want to do this?!” Gao Feiyan said.

"You're going to ask me that again three years from now?!" Chen Yu laughed.

"Three years later? Why?!"

"It's simple, let the facts speak for themselves!" Chen Yu said with a smile.

"What a scoundrel! I've already taken the contract. How many others are there besides her?!"

"The target is eight, but we don't know exactly how many we can sign!" Chen Yu replied.

"Okay, but I'm starting to poach new talent?! I can't handle this, it's too expensive!" Gao Feiyan said. She felt that new talent was cheaper, which was essential for the company to keep operating. Otherwise, with someone like Chen Yu, costing tens of millions per person, what was the point of even trying?

“No problem, you can recruit new people. I’m preparing this for my sketch comedy and crosstalk competition. But you can still find new talent. I’ll give you a script, and you can help me choose a few roles,” Chen Yu said.

"it is good!"

Chen Yu naturally redeemed the light comedy "iPartment," which is considered a masterpiece. As the pioneering work, this show is very suitable.

More importantly, the filming is relatively simple, and the plot is humorous and interesting, which is very popular among young people, and most of his fans are young people.

So it can be considered a perfect match!

The script for the first season of Love Apartment required 8 million fan points to redeem, plus 2 million for revisions to better fit the time and space, so the first season required 10 million fan points.

Fortunately, he will receive one-third of the fan points earned by all the actors involved in this production.

Chen Yu wasn't sure if he could break even, but he figured it shouldn't be a big problem.

With Liu Tao secured, Chen Yu began to consider the second person, Huang Lei, known as "Chef Huang."

At this time, Huang Lei had just been hired as a teacher at Huaying Film Academy.

His talent has not yet fully blossomed.

Chen Yu found Huang Lei's phone number and dialed it directly. Chen Yu dialed Huang Lei's office landline.

I thought I wouldn't be able to get through, but to my surprise, I did.

"Huang Lei?!"

"Yes, this is you. May I ask who this is?!" Huang Lei saw the unfamiliar number and answered. The person on the other end seemed quite young. Could it be someone handling some student's case?!

"I'm Chen Yu, the one who sings fairy tales! I wonder if it would be convenient for Teacher Huang Lei to meet me?" Chen Yu said.

"Chen Yu, who is known as the Crown Prince?!" Huang Lei thought he had misheard. He was not familiar with Chen Yu, and recently the school had been in a very passive position because of Chen Yu. Why would he suddenly contact him?

"Yes, that's me. Mr. Huang Lei, I have some things I'd like to discuss with you in person. Is that alright?" Chen Yu said.

"Of course, but may I ask why you've come to see me, Your Highness?!" Huang Lei asked, his clever mind racing.

"It's about some cooperation matters. Let's discuss the specifics when we meet. When are you free?" Chen Yu asked.

"How about tomorrow? Tomorrow's Saturday, I'm off. You decide on a place, and I'll come find you. It's not very convenient for you now, you're a big star." Huang Lei was still somewhat suspicious, a little wary, and immediately set a trap. He wanted to test the other party's "depth." To be continued.
