Chapter 810 - Future Plans
Now that Xu Chen"s matter had been settled, Yun Xiangxiang had one less thing to worry about.
She was fully focused on preparing to enter the production team. Song Meng was on vacation this week, so she specially came over to ask her, "You haven"t been idle all this time. Why isn"t there a film screening? I"m almost scared by the fans."
"I"m only in charge of filming, not broadcasting."Yun Xiangxiang was also helpless.
It was all her fault for being too diligent in the past. Ever since she debuted, at least one film had been released every year, which raised the appet.i.te of her fans.
Suddenly, it had been a year. They were anxious, but this was not something Yun Xiangxiang could control.
"When is "Soar to the sky"going to be released? When is "Soar to the sky"going to be released?"Song Meng did not ask after she had just finished filming "Monarch and subject".
""Soar to the Sky"will be scheduled for the spring festival, and "Soar to the Sky"will probably be released in the second half of the year."Yun Xiangxiang felt a little helpless.
"Sigh."Song Meng sighed heavily. "Now I know why. The actors are all working hard to film, and some of them even spend 365 days a year on the set every day. It"s really not as destructive as their works."
Take Yun Xiangxiang"s birthday donations as an example.
The year before last, because "Jiu se"just happened to be released, it welcomed Yun Xiangxiang"s birthday. The fans went crazy. They donated close to 30 million a day, and this was under the premise that everyone could only donate one yuan a day.
Because there were no works this year, Yun Xiangxiang"s birthday was also very low-key. Just like in previous years, she posted on Weibo and did not accept gifts from her fans. She still donated and almost did not exceed 10 million. The difference was too big.
"This is very good. This means that many fans are purely fans of my work."Yun Xiangxiang was actually happy.
Yun Xiangxiang"s expectation for her fans was to acknowledge her work. As for herself, she did not need the recognition of her fans that much.
Any recognition came with responsibility. Since she was not willing to take on this responsibility, she could be more casual.
"I"m just lamenting how important an actor"s work is."Song Meng didn"t feel disappointed about the money.
The money was donated to charity in the name of Yun Xiangxiang"s fanclub. It had nothing to do with song Meng.
She was about to start her interns.h.i.+p as well. Her goal was to become an agent. Of course, she had to know more about the actor so that she could better build her own actor in the future.
Yun Xiangxiang could certainly see through song Meng"s thoughts at a glance. She said to song meng seriously, "By the way, are you planning to intern at Huan Yu Century Entertainment?"
"Yes."Song Meng nodded.
It was not because of Yun Xiangxiang, but because she had been in contact with many companies and studios in the past few years. In comparison, she liked the atmosphere of Huan Yu century entertainment more.
Of course, it could not be avoided. He Wei was Yun Xiangxiang"s agent. In front of her idol, there were many things she could learn from him.
"I also mentioned it to brother Wei a while ago."Yun Xiangxiang was very concerned about song Meng"s matters, "Brother Wei means that you will first work as an a.s.sistant for a new actor for a year. That way, you will understand more and wait until you officially graduate before you apply to be an agent."
"Brother Wei, do you want me to be an actor"s a.s.sistant or an agent"s a.s.sistant first?"Song Meng didn"t understand.
The two were different. The agent"s a.s.sistant was in charge of the actor"s publicity, salary negotiations, contract modification, and so on.
He Wei did not have an a.s.sistant because he only had Yun Xiangxiang and Xue Yu under him, so he could manage them.
The actor"s a.s.sistant was basically in charge of the actor"s daily life, such as scheduling, contacting the media, and organizing events.
Both of them had their own advantages, and both of them had their own precedents of transforming an agent.
"Of course it"s an agent"s a.s.sistant,"Yun Xiangxiang replied. "An agent who needs an agent"s a.s.sistant has at least three or more artists on hand. Of course, there are some big names who would also apply for an agent"s a.s.sistant.
"Since you have to worry about an actor in the future, you have to contact the agent who has many actors on hand. This is a transitional period.
If you get in touch with a few more actors, you will be able to find out that different actors are facing different emergencies. It doesn"t matter if you can"t solve it.
You can look for an agent. At this time, you can learn more."
As a newbie on the road, if she jumped straight to the agent, song Meng would probably be in a flurry.
Looking at the thoughtful song Meng, Yun Xiangxiang continued, "If you want to learn real skills, you can"t follow brother Wei."
He Wei only had Yun Xiangxiang and Xue Yu in his hands. Yun Xiangxiang and Xue Yu were not rookies, so the trouble they would encounter would be less and less.
It was not conducive to song Meng"s practice, so he weicai suggested that song Meng be placed in the hands of an old agent who had more new actors.
"Thank you, Xiangxiang. Also, please help me convey my grat.i.tude to brother Wei."Song Meng held Yun Xiangxiang"s hand. "I"ll listen to you guys."
She wanted to learn, but she did not expect to be sheltered all her life. She hoped that one day she would be able to stand up on her own.
Then she could not stay by He Wei"s side and pick the right ones to do. Without a solid foundation, once she left the person who was supporting her, everything would collapse in an instant.
"Prepare your resume and start working during the summer vacation. Brother Wei will help you arrange it."Yun Xiangxiang knew that song Meng was down-to-earth just thinking about it.
It was actually very sullen to be an a.s.sistant. It was inevitable to be ordered around by the agent, because the agent was the one who controlled the life of the artist. Many artists would not have much respect for the agent"s a.s.sistant.
It was inevitable to be enslaved by two sides, but work was to run errands for others, and any job was no exception.
Even if he was the boss himself, he had to be nice to the clients and the partners who controlled the resources.
The unavoidable thing was that she had to learn to calm down and learn the true ability to climb up. This was true growth.
"It"s good to have some thoughts."Song Meng Held Yun Xiangxiang"s arms and leaned on Yun Xiangxiang"s shoulder.
"Who asked the three of us to be best friends?"Yun Xiangxiang thought about how song Meng had taken care of her fan club for the past few years and how she was going to deal with the aftermath of her graduation. She was very grateful.
"It"s a pity that xiangling is going to study abroad soon. The three of us will be separated for at least two years."Song Meng thought of Li Xiangling and could not help but feel a little sad. "What About You? Think about it. Your professional results are so good, so why didn"t you continue your studies?"
"Yes, but I refused."
The last time she went to apply for leave, Hou Chengjue had talked to her and asked if she had any thoughts of staying in school to study for postgraduate studies.
Yun Xiangxiang said no because she did not plan to learn the essence of this major and did not plan to pursue other majors.
Hou chengjue also asked her if she was willing to study abroad. Their school could recommend very good foreign famous schools.
Yun Xiangxiang also rejected it. The recommendation quota was limited, and she did not want to take one. It was better to leave it for those outstanding students who planned to take the major to survive.
If she gave it to her, no matter how good her studies were, she would not have the mood and energy to put it to use.
As for postgraduate studies, Yun Xiangxiang could wait for a few years before making any plans.
