After the military training ended, classes officially began.
Because of Fang Yifan's acting skills, Xiang Nan's performance in the classroom was equally impressive. His voice, stage, form, and expression are all outstanding, and he is often praised by teachers.
In addition to studying, Xiang Nan's work is still quite heavy.
He is currently busy preparing for his second album and is currently selecting songs.
In order to ensure the quality and sales of the second album, Xiang Nan also produced a lot of good songs.
For example, "Free as the Wind", "In Another Country", "Come for You", "Yearing", "Border of Lake Baiga", "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky", "The Girl Opposite Looks Over", "Chasing Dreams" "Innocent Heart" and so on.
It’s just that when you release an album, it’s not just because the songs are good. It is best for styles and themes to be harmonious and unified. Otherwise, the previous song "Lonely Sandbank Cold" is sad and sad; the next song "Little Apple" is cheerful and joyful, and the audience will have a schizophrenia.
In addition to preparing the album, Xiang Nan also has to participate in commercial performances, shoot commercials, and attend events. In addition, Yan Fan also helped him secure some film and television projects, and Xiang Nan had to be busy auditioning for various production crews.
In the 1990s, although the mainland film and television market was in a downturn, it was relatively professional and standardized. Film and television drama projects are handled with great care from preparation to shooting.
Even though Xiang Nan is a popular singer and well-known, she still has to participate in auditions for film and television dramas, and there is no back door.
Unlike later generations, with the influx of capital, the market prospered, but it also became chaotic and full of demons. It doesn't matter whether an artist can act or not, or how poor his acting skills are, as long as he has the support of capital, he can be the protagonist.
He was busy with albums, commercial performances, commercials, and filming, so Xiang Nan was extremely busy, wishing he could split it into four pieces by himself.
…
However, despite being busy, Xiang Nan still took time to communicate with Qiu Ya and Zhang Jingchu.
Especially Qiu Ya. Because of her beauty, she was very popular among her senior fellow students after she entered school, including some with good conditions.
This naturally made Xiang Nan worried, so he communicated with Qiu Ya every now and then to ensure that she would not be picked up.
"Qiu Ya, this tube of lipstick is for you." After the exchange of feelings, Xiang Nan gave the gift to Qiu Ya and said.
"Fuck you?! Yuan Hua, I love you so much~" Qiu Ya was so happy when she saw her that she took the initiative to give her a sweet kiss.
"You won't love me if you don't give me away?" Xiang Nan said coldly.
"Of course not." Qiu Ya quickly denied, "I love you sincerely, and I'm not greedy for vanity. If you don't believe it, I swear to you!"
"I'm just joking, don't take it so seriously." Xiang Nan laughed, "I'll tell you good news. I'm now worth six million."
Over the past six months, he has earned tens of millions of assets through album releases, song sales, endorsements, and commercial performances. After excluding the taxes that need to be paid, there is still more than 6 million yuan left.
At that time, I dare not say that I was the richest in the world, but I could still be considered a wealthy family.
"Really, wow!" Qiu Ya couldn't help but her eyes lit up when she heard this.
Her father has been in business since the 1980s, and now his income is only three to four hundred thousand, which is really far behind.
"Yuan Hua, you are so amazing!" She couldn't help hugging Xiang Nan and said. She chose Xiang Nan, and she made the right choice.
"That's right." Xiang Nan smiled, "You should also take time to learn to drive later. When the time comes, I will give you a car."
"Really?! Wow!" Upon hearing this, Qiu Ya nodded immediately.
Xiang Nan smiled.
With a fortune of six million as bait, plus she was busy learning to drive on weekends, Qiu Ya had neither the thought nor the time, which greatly reduced the possibility of cheating on her.
As for Zhang Jingchu, Xiang Nan has not helped her to develop in the field of film and television dramas for the time being. After all, he is also a newcomer in the film and television industry and has not achieved much yet.
However, Xiang Nan gave Zhang Jingchu five thousand yuan every month, which was enough for her living and consumption, and it was considered a big favor to her.
…
On this day, Xiang Nan came to the crew of "Nothing Happens" to audition.
This film was invested by Chang'an Film Studio and directed by Yang Anzhou.
This is a major player in the field of domestic film and television dramas. He has directed "Back to Back, Face to Face", "Red Light Stop, Green Light Go", "Empty Mirror", "Beautiful Big Feet", "Nine Phoenixes in the Family", " "Eight Brothers" and so on, it can be called a book of its own, quite remarkable.
The script of this movie is adapted from the well-known writer Liu Heng's "The Happy Life of Zhang Damin." This novel was just released last year, and it caused a sensation immediately after its release, ranking first in the Chinese novella rankings.
Therefore, not only Yang Qianzhou is interested in this film, but also national first-class director Shen Haofang is interested in this film and is said to be turning it into a TV series. This shows how high the quality of this one is.
With a good team and a good script, it’s no wonder that as soon as this drama was filmed, artists from all walks of life rushed to audition.
The role Xiang Nan is auditioning for is "Five People". His role in the film is not that big. All the screen time combined does not exceed fifteen minutes. He is a small supporting role.
Xiang Nan applied for this role, firstly to accumulate experience, and secondly to expand his network to facilitate his transformation in the future.
"Yuan Shuai, you have three major advantages in auditioning Wu Min." Yan Fan analyzed it for him while driving, "First, you and Wu Min are of the right age. Wu Min in the play, when he first appeared, he was a college entrance examination graduate. Student, I am the same age as you want to be; secondly, your acting skills are good, better than ordinary newcomers; thirdly, you are quite famous, and the director is more inclined to use you than those unknown people."
Now everyone in the studio likes to call Xiang Nan [Yuan Shuai].
Firstly, he is still young, so calling him Mr. Yuan or Boss Yuan makes him look old; secondly, it is inappropriate to call him by his name directly. Therefore, Yan Fan came up with a nickname for him - Yuan Shuai.
First of all, Xiang Nan is indeed handsome. The front face looks like Daniel Wu, the side face looks like Leslie Cheung, and he has a star look; secondly, Yuan Shuai has the same pronunciation as Marshal. As the owner of the studio, Xiang Nan leads everyone to make money, which is no different from a marshal who leads troops to fight.
As a result, the name Yuan Shuai spread.
"Of course, there is also a big disadvantage." Yan Fan continued, "According to the information I heard, Feng Gong has been chosen as the leading actor in this movie. He plans to make the movie into a Jinmen dialect version. You are from the Northeast, Accent is a weakness.”
Xiang Nan nodded, and then said with a smile, "It's okay. It's the best if you can apply, and it doesn't matter if you don't."
At this stage, the film and television industry is not prosperous.
Even first-line actors such as Li Xuejian, Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo, and Li Baotian only earn 10,000 to 20,000 yuan per episode.
Ge Yougui is the mainland's most popular actor at the box office. When he filmed "Party A and Party B" in 1997, his salary was only 1.2 million.
Therefore, at this stage, Xiang Nan is not looking to make a fortune by acting in film and television dramas. He just wants to pave the way for himself, wait for capital to enter the market, and then grab money.
