Yu Han patted her frightened chest and complained, “Old Bai, just say what you want to say. Why do you have to scare me?”
Bai Chao glared at her plaintively. “1 called you guys so loudly just now, but none of you heard me.”
The three of them looked at each other, indicating that they really did not hear Bai Chao’s voice at all just now. They could only tacitly ignore this.
Yu Han apologized to him and asked, “Alright, what’s going on with you now? Have you set up the scene? Are you going to start filming?”
“We’re indeed going to start filming.” Bai Chao put away his aggrieved look and nodded. However, he did not walk away. Instead, he leaned forward and squatted with them. “But before that, aren’t you going to tell me about that studio? Are you going to ostracize me?”
Yu Han was confused. “We’re discussing an artist studio. Why are you, a director, joining in the fun?”
Bai Chao’s gaze shifted to Yu Han. “So are you planning to open a studio?”
…..
Yu Han nodded. “Yes.”
Bai Chao rubbed his hands and said, “Then has your studio considered signing an additional director?”
The three of them were a little surprised.
Yu Han was puzzled. “Old Bai, don’t you have an organization? Why are you thinking of signing with the company?”
Hearing her words, Bai Chao stroked his forehead with some vicissitudes. “What kind of organization is that? Although we’re all students under Teacher, isn’t it said that master leads the way, but the cultivation depends on oneself? Teacher has handed us everything that needs to be handed over. How we develop in the future still depends on our own luck.”
Although directors were not like actors in the industry and had more freedom, there were actually directors who signed contracts with management companies. However, there were not many. After all, most directors still preferred to open their own studios and nurture their own teams.
Unfortunately, as a new director, Bai Chao was extremely poor. Hence, he could forget about having his own studio. It was more important to think about how to feed himself.
He looked at Yu Han expectantly. “If I sign a contract with your studio, will there be a guaranteed salary? Will there be five insurances and one housing fund? Will it be able to solve the staff’s food and accommodation problem?”
As soon as these three questions came out, they were filled with the sadness of a worker.
Yu Han looked at him sympathetically. “Old Bai, you’re someone who wants to be a big director after all. Can you have some pursuits? Even if you want to sign a contract, you should at least care about the dividend ratio, film contract resources, and other more important things, not these trivial matters.”
Hearing this, the vicissitudes on Old Bai’s face deepened. He was just short of lighting a cigarette to cosplay as a contemplator. He said worriedly, “Ideals are ideals, but eating is eating. What’s the use of talking about ideals if you don’t even have food?”
Ever since he caught his wife cheating a few days ago, the other party had taken the opportunity to propose a divorce.
Although Bai Chao was angry at his wife’s betrayal, he felt guilty towards her when he thought about how his wife had been disappointed again and again all these years because of him.
Hence, after his wife suggested dividing the house, Bai Chao couldn’t be bothered to argue anymore. He simply gave the house to her. The two of them went their separate ways after completing the procedures.
However, he was indeed generous when he was generous. After being generous, he had to face a very realistic problem. Not only did he not have a place to live, but he also did not have much money in his pocket.
Now that the television drama had finished filming, it would take half a year to a year for it to be released after post-production editing. During this period, he did not have time to look for other jobs. He could not keep looking for his friends to freeload after the drama was finished filming, right? He would lose all his friends.
Hence, when he eavesdropped on Yu Han saying that she wanted to establish an artist studio, he suddenly had an idea. He thought that if the studio could help him solve the food and accommodation problem, it would not be a bad choice to sign under Yu Han. After all, with Yu Han’s background, she would not treat him badly.
After Bai Chao made his request, he looked at Yu Han eagerly. “If you feel that it’s difficult, it doesn’t matter if the base salary is lower. It’s fine as long as you can let me survive.”
Yu Han thought for a moment. Bai Chao would definitely soar in the future. If she could take the opportunity to sign him, it would be a good investment.
“I can sign you, but as you know, our studio is still in its initial stages, so 1 can give you a guaranteed salary or pay you insurance and money. However, we can’t help you solve the accommodation problem for the time being..”
