chapter Ten

After a few days of rest, the manager asked Wang Ziye to go to the company to talk about a new job. First, he cared about the artist's body: "Why do you have dark circles under your eyes? Can't you sleep well?"

"..." Wang Ziye couldn't say that it was caused by unrestrained guessing.

It has been in moderation for the past two days.

The agent first came up with a variety show, an outdoor reality show. The platform has already given a plan and a concept video. The investor wants to find a person who is not more than twenty-five, tall and handsome, without black material, a little popular, and has not acted in it. Reality TV actor.

After watching the PPT, Wang Ziye said, "I don't want to go."

The agent thought he was afraid of being used as a foil for others, and said, "This is a gang network, the team background is average, please don't come to the top line and large traffic."

"That's not what I meant." Wang Ziye said, "I don't want to shoot a reality show, I don't know how to act, I'm afraid I'll screw it up."

The agent has been working with him for a few months, and he can also feel that he is lazy in social life. No smile.

But when the agent first took over him, heard that he is very outgoing, talks a lot, and is a stalker. He is quick-witted like a wild horse. He doesn't need reporters to ask questions in interviews, and he can record his own questions and answers for half an hour.

In general, unlike rumors, the real person is quite cold. Or the timeliness of rumors is too short, and people have changed.

The agent came up with another film and television drama project, which is an urban romance, an adaptation of an online novel, a sweet love story, and a bit of workplace elements.

Wang Ziye: "..."

The agent hadn't noticed his speechlessness, and went on to talk about the key points that are generally considered more worthy of attention in the industry: "But this drama, the platform rating is only A, the original book is not a big IP, but it also said there, if you are willing to act , it's not that there is no chance to give S again."

Wang Ziye said: "It has nothing to do with the rating. Has the director decided? How many episodes have the script been given?"

The theme of domestic workplace romance dramas comes with its own debuff, capable directors are willing to come to the rescue, and maybe even rescue it.

"The director hasn't been decided yet, let's talk about it with these guys." The agent showed him the list and felt a little guilty. These directors were also not very good, and they discussed, "Why don't you go back and read the original book before deciding. The original book is really sweet, and the screenwriter responsible for the adaptation is also a veteran, with successful experience in adapting Xiaoyan, the last one was over 7 points on Douban."

Wang Ziye lacks interest.

The first time he debuted, he met the Tianxuan crew, a good director, a good script, and a good opponent. At the time, he didn't understand it, and he didn't know this kind of crew and this kind of work. It was probably only once in his life.

As soon as entered the industry, have seen pearls, but if look at others, they are all fish eyes. Don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

The job of an agent is to turn an artist into a good commodity, not to cultivate aspiring performing artists.

Knowing that he didn't like this project, the agent started to go to PUA Dafa, mentioned the heroine of the Xianxia drama, and said, "Have you heard? After finishing the drama with you, they joined the group seamlessly, and the new drama is still S+. "

In contrast, Wang Ziye's next job has not yet landed, and this line of work is to go against the current or retreat. Two months ago, with the help of the previous warmth, he was able to receive Xianxia's "good cake". After two months, only The A-level project asked him to play the male lead.

In the end, Wang Ziye promised to go back and read the original work, and then talk about it after reading it.

The agent made an appointment with him to "talk about it", he thought to himself, after reading the book in two or three days, he said, "Let's go to the weekend."

"The original book has more than 900,000 words," the agent reminded. "Have you read it in three days?"

Wang Ziye: "..."

Well, it's still a hydrology. Don't talk about it, don't even want to watch it.

After saying goodbye to the agent, Xiang Wan and Bart didn’t know where they went to play. The assistants didn’t have to work, and they didn’t usually use the company. Once they came, they would hurry up and socialize with colleagues in the company, and find out if there were any new melons in the company. eat.

He stood in the corridor and sent a message to Xiang Wan. Two people came across the corridor, a man and a woman, the woman was the secretary, and the man was the boss—the company boss, Wang Ziye's boss.

Wang Ziye stood up straight and called out, "Mr. Huo."

Mr. Huo was quite surprised when he saw him, and said to the secretary, "You do your job first."

The secretary has great eyesight, quickened his pace and disappeared in this place

space

inside.

One wall of this corridor is full of floor-to-ceiling glass, and the sunlight is good. Wang Ziye is in a normal mood and doesn't like talking to the boss. Probably no one likes it either.

"When did you come back from Hengdian?" Mr. Huo said, "How is the crew this time?"

Wang Ziye said, "I just came back a few days ago, so it's not bad."

Mr. Huo nodded and said, "Xiaojian will go back to Beijing next week and invite you to our house for dinner."

Wang Ziye: "Okay."

The relationship between him and the boss is not simply a relationship between a worker and a capitalist, exploiting and being exploited, but there is an inexorable relationship of deprivation, wife, love, hatred, ah.

His relative roommate, Xiao Jian, who was in love with him, signed with a brokerage company earlier than him. He didn't skyrocket, and he didn't become popular, but he didn't go through the blind chess and the elephant, and his acting career was very early. On the right track, he is currently a new generation of film lovers who have won mainstream awards. It is difficult for actors of the same age such as Wang Ziye to match.

In the year of their college entrance examination, Wang Ziye was the 11th national major in the country, and he was already shining on the lintel. The family treated guests for three days and three nights. Did not do well.

And the number one in the country that year was Xiaojian.

Jane's innate condition is really good. But to get to this point today, Boss Huo's behind-the-scenes guidance and operation are indispensable.

The two of them, Xiao Jian and Mr. Huo, are both artists and managers who have achieved mutual success, and they are also a couple.

When Wang Ziye had a crush on Xiaojian and didn't dare to say it, Xiaojian had a crush on her manager and talked to him about her thoughts. Wang Ziye was bleeding, and said in his mouth, "If you like it, don't be shy, it's a big deal. Refuse... Then I will lend you my strong arms to lean on, and you will forget it after crying all night."

I was looking forward to Mr. Huo's rejection of Xiaojian, but was afraid that if he refused, Xiaojian would be sad.

Later, when their good deeds came to pass, Wang Ziye's mind was put down instead.

In any case, he liked it, but he didn't like it that much. In his heart, he didn't think that Jane should be a pair with him.

But so what, all of the above have nothing to do with him not liking the boss.

It's not that don't like Boss Huo, it's that don't like all the bosses in the world.

Xue Tingyun and his "boss" have a different relationship.

Last time, the fund's score was too low, and the special research funds that the institute could approve were very small... He was working as a civil science at his own expense, so he wouldn't burn these tens of thousands of dollars.

The returnee PI who scored a low score, he couldn't overcome, he didn't waste his time, and was too lazy to care about that person.

Just think of another way.

One day, the boss directly under the management vaguely heard something, Dr. Xue was preparing to apply for the National Science Foundation, and he did not want the special support from the institute.

The boss was taken aback. On average, more than 100 projects each year can pass the preliminary examination of the National Science Fund, and Dr. Xue's standard must also be applied, but why? There is little money, and the names do not match. It was agreed that Dr. Xue's project is to follow their project with a special allocation of 400 million yuan.

When the boss asked me about this, Xue Tingyun gave an ambiguous answer, showing moderate sadness.

In the current situation in China, there are not many postdoctoral fellows who are willing to enter the second phase, and there are very few majors in microbiology.

When transitioning from a postdoc to a full-time scientist, the first thing to overcome is the confusion about career choices brought about by the income gap.

Xue Tingyun is now engaged in scientific research in the institute, and he gets 200,000 to 300,000 yuan a year. If he goes to a pharmaceutical company, he has to double it. If the project progresses, he will probably achieve financial freedom before the age of 30.

After he left the station last year, when he was invited by a pharmaceutical company to help out, he had a deep discussion with his boss, and his family needed the money to tide over difficulties. At that time, everyone felt that he could not come back, which was a pity, but understood.

Even later, he

easy

When they came back, everyone was surprised. At that time, he just said lightly that the family problems were resolved, and he could come back and do what he wanted to do.

Combined with the past, Xue Tingyun's "sadness" at this time is very moving.

Fund score is low, what is it? Is it less money? No, doubt Dr. Xue's sincerity in science.

——Dr. Xue has some acting bacteria on his body thanks to his mother.

In the evening, both of them returned home with a smile on their faces, and they both proposed to go out to eat, and they were in a good mood.

"Anything good?" Wang Ziye asked first, "What is it?"

Xue Tingyun said: "The unit has sent money."

Wang Ziye smiled and said, "Yes, you can pay for it that night."

It wasn't the money that was sent to Xue Tingyun's own wallet, but it was unnecessary to explain this, in short, it was a very happy thing.

"I'll change my pants and go, wait for me." Wang Ziye went to the room to change clothes, walking briskly, his back was happy, and when he entered the room, he muttered to himself: "Ball pants, MMP is environmentally friendly. The material is airtight..."

After all, it was summer, and he was on duty for one day. Xue Tingyun also wanted to change clothes and then go out to eat with his co-habitant. He walked to the end of the corridor, and the two doors were facing each other. at a glance.

Wang Ziye was stuffed with environmentally friendly pants for a long time and felt uncomfortable. He was fanning the birds with his hands there. There are some things, even a handsome man would be very funny.

Two people: "..."

Xue Tingyun remained calm, turned and entered his room.

Wang Ziye just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Xue Tingyun from the opposite side let out an uncontrollable hilarious laugh.

"Laughing at the hammer." Wang Ziye scolded, he couldn't help laughing, he took another pair of trousers and wore them.

Xue Tingyun also took off the black shirt he liked to wear at work, changed into a light-colored short-sleeved shirt, and asked from a distance, "You haven't said it yet, why are you so happy?"

"Happy!" Wang Ziye replied loudly, "Xiaojian will go back to Beijing next week!"

In the full-length mirror in front of Xue Tingyun, the corners of the handsome man's raised lips drooped for a second.
