The Struggle History and Celebrity Story of Male No.8

Huang Hai Bo has become one of the top ten actors in Chinese mainland. However, he was "exploited" for five years and his salary was almost zero. However, he cherished the five years without income. He cherishes opportunities despised by others, and tries to earn only 2,000 yuan but has to pay 1 10,000 yuan.

Appreciate the opportunity of being "exploited"

When Huang Hai Bo graduated from the Film Academy, the most popular actors on the screen were Lu Yi and Chen Kun.

"Too handsome, turn on the TV, all men and women. I compared myself carefully. When I'm finished, I can play a male number eight. " Huang Hai Bo knows himself, but he is still very depressed.

What is more frustrating is that Huang Hai Bo has to ask for a chance to play the eighth man. Huang Hai Bo, Huang Lei's favorite apprentice, had a hard time without money, so Huang Lei brought him a bunch of tickets for the university drama class and asked him to sell them, with a commission of five yuan.

Huang Hai Bo obediently got the ticket and stood at the gate of the theater. Seeing Summer Xu wearing sunglasses coming, he pretended not to recognize the big star and said quietly, "Miss, do you like going to the theatre? Huang Lei is in the class, I hope you will support my teacher! "

"Huang Lei is your teacher?" Facing Summer Xu's suspicious eyes, Huang Hai Bo suddenly realized, "Ah, it's Sister Xu! Yes, Huang Lei is the director, and I am his student. My name is Huang Hai Bo. "

Summer Xu bought four tickets at a time. Huang Hai Bo happily introduced himself again: "Thank you, Sister Xu. My name is Huang Hai Bo. "

At that time, Huang Lei felt strange, just selling tickets. Why does Huang Hai Bo take the trouble to put his name on his lips every time? Huang Hai Bo just smiled.

Huang Hai Bo's passion for ticket sales made him the champion of ticket sales. When most students crowded into the basement to eat instant noodles, Huang Hai Bo rented a heated apartment with the commission of ticket sales, and bought some good clothes to wrap herself up.

Although no crew took the initiative to find Huang Hai Bo, he still ran around all the crews with photos. When he met Summer Xu, he greeted him sweetly: "Sister Xu, you are really getting better and better. By the way, the TV series you played recently is also particularly brilliant ... "Summer Xu thought for a long time in confusion:" Excuse me, who are you ...? "Smile and answer:" I am, your brother Huang. You bought some tickets from me, have you forgotten? " After a few pleasantries, Summer Xu directly brought "Brother Huang" to the director, and the role of Male No.8 was settled.

It was through the network accumulated when selling tickets that Huang Hai Bo gradually entered the entertainment circle. Many times, the stingy director will even discuss with him directly: "I'll give you a few more lines to make you more famous, so you won't get paid." Without thinking, Huang Hai Bo promised to try his best to get a chance to play for himself.

No matter how small the role, Huang Hai Bo will work hard. Once, he fell off his horse in a performance and broke three ribs. He was laughed at by everyone as "I have never seen a supporting actor hurt like this." But the director appreciates Huang Hai Bo's style of "earning 2,000 yuan but earning 1 10,000 yuan". In the future, as long as there is a suitable role, I can always think of him. However, in a few years, Huang Hai Bo, who was not handsome at all, became a "hot potato" in the hands of directors, and his pay soared.

Huang Lei appreciates Huang Hai Bo's curve growth plan. When two people are sitting together drinking, Huang Lei will praise him a few words. Huang Hai Bo said with deep feelings, "I am stupid, but I never complain that my talent has been' used'. I learned to appreciate the opportunity of being' used' and learned to spare no effort for my ideals. "

Find the right money-making partner

Although Huang Hai Bo is no longer a zero-paid walk-on actor, unfortunately, no drama can make him famous. Huang Hai Bo reflected on himself and found that he had made a huge mistake: it was not that he didn't work hard, but that he didn't find the right partner. In order to change this situation, Huang Hai Bo, after careful consideration, locked his old classmate Christina as the best cooperation candidate.

Huang Hai Bo and Christina are classmates, both of whom are late bloomers. Huang Hai Bo told Christina what he thought, and Christina said, "Good. We are old classmates, we know each other and trust each other. Let's fight the world together and make a big splash together. " The two made a careful plan: first, to co-produce a drama, which must be the hero and heroine, and the pay is divided into two parts, each half; At the same time, the film must also be suitable for their styles, so as to ensure their fame and fortune.

There is nothing wrong with Huang Hai Bo choosing Christina as a partner. The two are listed together, and the package price is much lower than that of the actors selected by the cast. Soon, the two signed a contract with the crew of "The Beautiful Times of Daughter-in-law", and the other party met all their ideas and requirements. Huang Hai Bo, with small eyes, broke the embarrassment of silence for many years with this film. At the same time, the salaries of Huang Hai Bo and Christina have doubled.

After a while, both of them were very idle and got together to talk about the Spring Festival Gala. Huang Hai Bo said, "Why don't we create a sketch program for the Spring Festival Evening?" Unexpectedly, he and Christina sketch all the way unimpeded, successfully boarded the CCTV Spring Festival Evening.

Their success again and their interdisciplinary cooperation have made more directors look at them with new eyes. Although they are not husband and wife, many advertisers take a fancy to their tacit understanding. They made many advertisements in the image of loving "husband and wife". In Huang Hai Bo's words, the total return of being "exploited" for five years is not worth the endorsement fee of an advertisement today.

Put on some weight and earn money tomorrow.

More and more stars, with the improvement of popularity and strong economic strength, began to be their own bosses. Huang Hai Bo didn't want to be "exploited" any more, so he turned down the contracts of several big brokerage companies. He also wants to start his own business, but he knows that his current strength and fame are not enough to support a company, which makes him a little upset.

Once, Huang Hai Bo came out of the studio after filming and saw many actors auditioning outside the studio. Seeing them arguing and recommending themselves to the director, asking for a role in the play, Huang Hai Bo couldn't help thinking of his situation when he was down and out.

Huang Hai Bo thought: Why not start a performance company, recruit potential artists and attract roles for them?

Huang Hai Bo excavated a large number of "potential stocks" from the graduating class of the Film Academy and artists eager to find roles outside the crew. Huang Hai Bo took good care of them, and when he went to talk to the director, he didn't forget to bring some "employees" to recommend to the director. Huang Hai Bo knew that the director didn't trust these little-known actors, so before he started to work, he always taught them repeatedly that "earning two thousand dollars is worth ten thousand dollars". We also cherish the opportunity to impress the director with our strength and efforts. Gradually, Huang Hai Bo's artist company became famous in the circle. A director often calls him: "Bring a few artists to audition, some roles here are short of people ..."

Where there is demand, there is a market. Now, as a boss, Huang Hai Bo divides artists into several categories according to their characteristics. Some are comedies, some are emotional dramas, and some are action movies. His company is almost a big and complete artist transit station. Huang Hai Bo found a blank spot in the performing arts market with a unique vision, strengthened his own strength, and created greater dreams and wealth at the same time.
