Chapter 433 Noodle shop, poaching, emotional card

The place where Liu Shijie asked Wang Kai to meet was at a Huaxi noodle restaurant outside the film and television base.

Before Wang Kai arrived, he ordered two bowls of noodles.

Actors filming in film and television bases, if they are not big names, eat lunch from the crew.

Even if it is an S-level film and television project, the lunch boxes prepared for the extras are not very good.

Add a chicken leg and it's already quite rich.

After all, the crew is large, with hundreds of people working a day, so the lunch box can guarantee freshness, and the combination of meat and vegetables is already very good.

Therefore, when the crew starts working, many people will want to take a bite of soup.

This Huaxi noodle shop outside the Donghai Film and Television Base has a very good business and is a place where many young actors go to improve their food.

It is close to the film and television base and the price is affordable.

The noodle soup tastes very good.

…

When Wang Kai arrived, two portions of beef noodles were already on the table, one with coriander and one without.

This detail made Wang Kai's expression stiffen slightly.

Because the beef noodles placed in front of him did not add coriander.

In fact, he doesn't object to eating coriander.

He can eat coriander, but he is worried that his breath will affect other actors during filming, so he specially picks out the coriander when eating noodles.

What surprised him was that two years later, Liu Shijie could remember such details.

"Remember this noodle shop?"

Liu Shijie looked up and glanced around the noodle shop, sighing: "It's still the same as before."

"Remember, this is where Mr. Liu said he wanted to sign me." Of course Wang Kai remembered, after all, that was the starting point for his career to take off.

At first.

Wang Kai was just a young actor who once lived in a six-person hotel near a film and television base.

Later, after becoming a guest actor, he finally received some roles with lines, and he rented a single room nearby.

He still remembers that at that time, special actors' daily salary was 500 yuan.

Compared to an extra who earns 100 a day, his income is already high.

It's just that the special actors registered in the Screen Actors Guild are like crucian carp crossing the river. If they can't fit into the role, they will have no income.

During that time, his income from working as a special guest actor, excluding rent and daily expenses, was not much left.

In order to play more roles with lines, he would audition for various theater groups as long as he had time, auditioning for hundreds of theater groups a year.

At that time, he was not qualified to choose scripts at all.

As long as the crew wants him, he will work hard to act, even if he is just playing a corpse.

In fact.

Acting as a corpse can get you an extra red envelope, which is a very popular job.

At that time, he was confused.

Because I don’t know where the road ahead is going, if I continue like this, will I ever get ahead one day?

Until one day two years ago, the crew got off work and he was going back to his residence to rest.

When leaving the film and television base, a person stopped him. This person was Liu Shijie.

then.

Liu Shijie treated him to a bowl of beef noodles at Huaxi Noodle House.

At that time, both bowls of beef noodles were served with coriander.

Wang Kai used chopsticks to pick out the coriander one by one.

While eating noodles, Liu Shijie talked a lot with him. He said that he had seen him acting on the set and was very optimistic about him. He wanted to sign him into the company and gave him a business card.

It was that time when he felt that there was someone in this world who understood him and recognized him.

So, he signed with Huahuo Media.

When he first signed with Huahuo Media, his life didn't change much.

I still go to the crew to audition every day.

Sometimes Liu Shijie would take him to audition with larger production crews, but whether he could get the role in the end depended on whether the production crew could use him.

Until later, the audition for "The Pretender" was successful.

He finally became famous.

Although he became famous through "The Pretender", it was indeed after Liu Shijie signed him that he got this opportunity.

Therefore, he was still very grateful to Liu Shijie.

Liu Shijie looked emotional and said: "Do you still remember what I said two years ago? I said I would definitely make you famous. Do you believe it now?"

Wang Kai could only nod his head and replied: "I believe it, I believe it."

Liu Shijie then said: "I want to change my words now. I can make you more famous than you are now. Do you believe it?"

When Wang Kai heard this, he was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer the question.

Liu Shijie began to gush: "When I first signed you, Huahuo Media had nothing, but it's different now, we have everything.

"I have contacted several investors, and we will leave Huabi and start a new company together.

"Hanabi's team will also come with me.

"Don't worry, as long as you come, I don't need you to invest. I guarantee that the new company will have 30% of your shares."

Wang Kai had a troubled expression on his face, his lips moved, and he wanted to speak, but he hesitated.

When Liu Shijie saw that he didn't nod, he continued to lobby: "And, I guarantee that your shares in the new company will never be diluted.

"Not only that, I still have the resources for "Spring Night in the Lotus Tent" and you are still the second male lead.

"After the new company is established, you will be the absolute protagonist of the company, and all resources will be given to you in the future.

"I promise to use the fastest speed to help you get to the front line."

Wang Kai became more and more embarrassed.

Today's meeting, the location of the appointment, and the content of the conversation were obviously specially arranged by Liu Shijie.

Especially the place where we met was the noodle shop from two years ago.

This is already playing the emotional card.

It is impossible to say that Wang Kai was not touched at all.

After all, this was the starting point for him to go from a penniless little actor to a popular actor with a salary of tens of millions.

After Liu Shijie finished stating all the prepared conditions, he stared into Wang Kai's eyes and asked:

"Ah Kai, you have to believe me, I can make you famous once, I can make you famous twice.

"Before coming here, I had already spoken with Mr. Chen on the phone.

"I agreed to many of his conditions and helped you retain the role of the second male lead in "Furong"."

Wang Kai frowned, looked up at him, and then quickly lowered his head.

He was a little afraid to look into Liu Shijie's eyes.

Because he felt guilty towards Liu Shijie.

Liu Shijie lowered his body, looked at Wang Kai's expression, and asked: "How about it? Work hard with me in your career. You don't have to worry about liquidated damages. I have made preparations for the contract you signed before.

"So, you don't need to pay attention to the contract with Hanabi. Just follow me and I will be responsible for settling the contract."

Wang Kai was really embarrassed. After holding it in for a long time, he exhaled and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm really... sorry."

When Liu Shijie heard this, he frowned and quickly added: "Are you still dissatisfied with the conditions I offered?

"30% of the shares is already a lot. Opening a new company requires investment, and investors hold more than 60% of the shares. The shares I gave myself were less than 10%.

"I do all this for you.

"Come with me, I am the one who really understands you. I can spot you among thousands of special actors, and I will definitely promote you to the top in the future. It is not impossible that you will even be the best actor or best actor.

"

Wang Kai took a breath and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Liu. Actually, I have already joined the team. I asked for leave from the director today."
