Chapter 84 A refined demeanor is cultivated.
Wang Xiaohao hesitated for a moment, then said, "It's usable! But we need to find someone to take good care of his skin first, and we also need to find a professional bodybuilder to train his posture!"
He paused for a moment as he spoke, wondering if there were any professional body shapers in China nowadays.
But there probably are, right?
If you really can't find one, you could find a model or a dance teacher to help you adjust your posture.
The main goal is to address this kid's timid and hesitant nature!
Although they appear timid, it's because they lack confidence.
Having enough confidence should make things much better!
But how is the so-called star quality displayed?
Aside from expensive clothing and styling, it's the change in temperament brought about by physical form.
In the entertainment industry, those who come from dance or modeling backgrounds often possess exceptional poise and charisma. And there's a reason for that!
It's because of its exceptionally upright and graceful posture.
Since the goal is to cultivate Wu Yu into the company's cash cow, then physical training should naturally begin in advance.
Of course, Wang Xiaohao was just saying it casually.
He doesn't have much energy to put into training artists. Since Zhao Liang wants to do it, he'll leave it to Zhao Liang!
Wang Le'an beamed with joy, bowing and scraping: "Director, thank you so much for giving this child a chance."
This kid is stuck in a rut, not good enough for anything, and I'm so worried about him!
He's so lucky to be able to join our company!
Wu Yu, come here, why don't you bow to the director?
Wang Xiaohao quickly stopped him: "Don't do that! I'm not dead yet, there's no need for anyone to bow to me."
Wang Le'an didn't care about anything else and pulled Wu Yu over, insisting on bowing to thank Wang Xiaohao: "Wu Yu, come here. Don't you want to become a big star?"
This is our director. Only if our director takes a liking to you will you have the chance to become a big star!
There are so many people in the world, and there are plenty of people with better qualifications than you. Why would a director choose you?
Isn't it all because of your uncle?
"You'd better do a good job once you're in the company! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!"
Wu Yu, looking bewildered, hurriedly bowed to Wang Xiaohao and said, "Hello, Director! I will definitely do my job well!"
Wang Xiaohao smiled and said, "I can give you the opportunity. You should practice your physique during this time."
Then, whenever I had free time, I would stay on set, observe and listen, and try to gain an understanding of the filming process as quickly as possible.
Old Zhao, you should tell the kids more often when you have time.
But let me make this clear to you first!
Whether or not I can use you in the end is not up to me alone!
We also need the consent of the other partners!
Zhao Liang and Wang Le'an both nodded repeatedly, saying, "Of course! Of course. Director, please also speak to Ms. Zhen Liang!"
Wang Xiaohao nodded, which was taken as an agreement.
He figured it wouldn't be difficult to persuade Zhen Liang.
After all, Zhen Liang is a freelancer with no actors to take care of.
At most, it's just out of personal favor, putting in a good word for other male actors.
However, most people now know that the most outstanding actresses in Wang Xiaohao's movies are the female leads.
The male leads weren't particularly outstanding, so there weren't many male celebrities with big names who wanted to act in Wang Xiaohao's dramas.
At least those A-list male stars won't be eager to come over!
That very evening, Zhao Liang and Wu Yu signed the contract directly.
The contract was for fifteen years, and the penalty for breach of contract is 20 million!
In the first year, the profits were split 90/10. Of course, the company got 90%, and the individual got 10%.
Wu Yu's personal profit share will increase by 10% every year until September 1st.
In other words, as long as Wu Yu stays with the company for nine years, he will receive 90% of the income, while the company will only receive 10%.
Of course, if Wu Yu is dissatisfied halfway through, he can also pay a 20 million yuan penalty to buy out the contract!
Such contracts in the entertainment industry are neither particularly strict nor overly lenient.
However, for a newcomer, these conditions are already quite good!
If it weren't for Wang Le'an's sake, they definitely wouldn't have given a newcomer like Wu Yu such favorable terms!
New contracts typically start at 15 years, with lower profit sharing and virtually no room for growth.
It's simply that after an artist becomes famous, they engage in various power struggles with their company, forcing the company to increase its share of the profits.
It's really rare to see growth divided according to the number of years!
Wang Xiaohao mainly felt that he was just trying to make quick money from celebrities and never thought about tying them down for life.
He made Wu Yu famous, and Wu Yu earned money for him for a year or two.
Whether Wu Yu wants to stay with the company or switch jobs at that time is none of his business!
The main reason for setting up liquidated damages is for this purpose.
After all, you can't expect the company to make you famous, only for you to effortlessly jump ship to another company the next day, right?
Of course, since Wu Yu has already signed the contract.
Then they're one of us!
Wang Xiaohao guarantees he'll make this kid famous. Even if "My Love from the Star" doesn't make him famous, Wang Xiaohao can tailor-make his next drama specifically for him to make him a star.
After all, Wu Yu is also trying to make money for him!
What pleased Wang Xiaohao was that, regardless of Wu Yu's actual qualifications, at least he had the right attitude.
Wang Xiaohao told him to stay on set, so he obediently stayed, running around with Zhao Liang every day, doing all sorts of odd jobs for the crew's preparations.
The reason for this is that ordinary people, who have not received professional acting training, have no concept of film crews and are prone to making mistakes when they start filming.
For example, ordinary people don't even have a concept of positioning.
He ran up to the camera and was dumbfounded, not even realizing he had stepped out of the camera's field of view.
Experienced actors, regardless of their acting skills, at least wouldn't make such a basic mistake.
Therefore, Wang Xiaohao needs Wu Yu to be familiar with the crew and have an understanding of the entire filming process.
You see, in my past life, there were many outstanding characters who were temporary staff members pulled from the film crew, and they performed exceptionally well.
This is most famously seen in Stephen Chow's films, such as Ru Hua, Bodhi Patriarch, and Zhu Ganglie.
A major reason for this is that the crew members are very familiar with filming. Once they get the hang of it, their performance is much better than the average person!
In addition, Zhao Liang also found a posture coach for Wu Yu.
If you want to quickly change a person's aura and transform them from an ordinary person into a glamorous star, makeup and expensive clothes alone are not enough.
The most crucial element is still the physique!
Whether a person has charisma or not can be mainly judged by their physique and speech!
Ordinary people don't have contact with celebrities, so they can't judge their demeanor by their speech; they mainly judge by their physique.
Children like Wu Yu, who come from the countryside, may be born with good looks.
But it has a certain rustic feel to it!
This kind of rusticity stems from a lack of worldly experience, but it's more due to physical appearance.
He looked too reserved and timid, hesitant to look at anything, and coupled with his cheap hairstyle and clothes, as well as his somewhat dark skin, he naturally came across as unsophisticated...
