Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 639 been excluded

  Chapter 639 Squeezed Out

  638

  In the early morning, in a film and television shooting location in the wilderness, Jobe stretched out from the prefab house of the collective accommodation.

   He fumbled for his toothbrush and toothpaste by the pool with his eyes dazed, and then started brushing his teeth lazily.

   "Hey Job, you got my toothbrush."

   Halfway through the brush, someone behind Job patted him on the shoulder, which made Job a little awake.

   He took the toothbrush out of his mouth, took a closer look, and reluctantly returned the toothbrush to the other party.

   "Sorry, I didn't notice."

   "It's okay, I don't have a lot of money anyway, but then again, are you still comfortable with this kind of life?"

   "This kind of life? What do you mean?" Job didn't understand.

   "It's this kind of life as a supporting role. After all, you used to be quite popular."

   The person who talked to Jobe in the morning was also a supporting role in the crew.

   They will have a slightly higher status than the group performers, but they are not much better.

   It's just that he didn't have the good luck that Job had, and he has always been at the bottom.

   Listening to the other party's words, Job seems to have calmed down a long time ago.

   He replied: "There is nothing to be used to or not used to, it is just to accomplish what I love. I like acting, and I am willing to give up everything for acting."

   Originally, Jobe could actually give up his acting career after a car accident and become a behind-the-scenes worker, or open a store and be a store owner or something.

   His life will definitely live without food and clothing.

   But he still chose to continue to be an actor, perhaps because his fame made him reluctant to give up easily, so he chose to spend his money and repair his face.

   It's just that the scar on his face is too deep, and it is almost impossible to completely repair it under the technical conditions at that time.

   Then, after spending the money, he didn't get any better, and his final status was not as good as before. Until now, he can only stay in the collective activity dormitory of the crew with a group of supporting actors, waiting to be dispatched at any time.

   In fact, no matter when he was working or resting, there would be people watching him with strange eyes, and occasionally he would see some people whispering.

   What's more, some people will show a schadenfreude expression.

   There are always those guys who like to watch others unlucky and happy.

At first, he was really unacceptable, and his will was depressed for a long time, but now he is really used to it. Even when others expose his scars directly, he has already shown that it doesn't matter, he just regrets that he can't Continue to progress in acting career.

   But speaking, in fact, I should have a little money now.

   The motion capture script that was filmed at Youxing Electronic Entertainment more than half a year ago gave a third-rate actor a paycheck to play the leading role. For him now, it is really a blessing in disguise.

   So he doesn't have to live in this kind of collective prefab room now. If you spend a little more money, someone in the crew will be willing to arrange a relatively clean and independent room for him to rest in a small room.

   It's just that he doesn't think it's necessary. Anyway, there aren't many episodes in this play. After participating in it for about a month, he can finish his work. There is no need to waste too much money for that little environmental advantage.

   Once, he was rich, and then he fell into poverty again.

   From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality is difficult, and then encountering poverty after being rich will make him see a lot of things, and it will make him more cherish every penny of money he earns.

  The toothbrush and toothpaste he bought were cheap.

   "Hey, in fact, I still envy you, Job. You at least once had a brilliant time, but you just weren't lucky enough."

   This man sighed, but he didn't really feel regret, just a little... proud.

  Look at you now, aren't you a big star in a circle with us now? The big stars are no big deal, the famous guys are just lucky, and the typical example of the unlucky is Jobe.

  Job could hear the slight sarcasm in the other party's words, but he was very calm now, just smiled and said, "Yeah, it's just unlucky."

   "Hey, hey, hey! There are ten minutes left before the show, everyone is wearing their costumes for today! Hurry up and gather for me!"

   Just then, the assistant director's grumpy voice came from outside.

  As for these supporting roles, the assistant director can scold them casually. This kind of loud voice is also a matter of course, and he does not think there is any problem.

  Job found that his toothbrush fell on the ground at some point, and other people's toothpaste and toothbrushes were piled up beside the sink. It was a mess.

  Job hesitated for a moment, then finally picked up his toothbrush on the ground and ran it at the tap, then took a brief shower, and immediately walked out in his costume.

   "This guy is still so serious, why is he so serious, now he's only playing a small supporting role, he really thinks he is still the big star he used to be."

   Several people looked at Job, who walked out of the room early, and were a little unhappy. They all felt that Job was trying too much to express himself.

   "It should be that the former star is still there. It must be difficult to change this kind of thing."

"Right…"

  Job willingly followed behind the big villain's **** today, as usual, in front of the beater boy.

  It is true that his acting skills are solid basic skills obtained through continuous hard work.

   Sometimes his acting skills even surpass some of the more important supporting roles, allowing people to focus more on this small supporting role.

   In the class who is also a supporting role, people will only sneer at him, and will not have other behaviors. After all, they are all sloppy food, and it is impossible to really go too far.

   But as the main supporting characters who already have a certain status, they obviously will not be happy to see the highlight moments shown by the mere Job.

  You are the highlight moment, but our light is covered up.

   What's the matter?

   So, a familiar scene was staged in the crew.

During the course of his acting, Job will be deliberately stumbled by someone, and someone will accidentally knock over his lunch box during lunch, and such people usually only apologize to Jobe simply. past.

  Job also acted very harmless to humans and animals at this time, and he didn't care about the secret evil of these people at all.

   Even when he was eating, he was still thinking about the content and effects of the next few performances, trying to be fully prepared for each performance.

   When he was brilliant, he somewhat ignored these important things. At that time, he always thought that he could continue to be popular, even if his acting skills were poor.

   But now, he has to practice the basic skills hard.

If the meal is overturned, I will make another copy. If someone stumbles me, I will re-shoot it myself. He is also indifferent to the rebuke of the director and assistant director, and he is more immersed in the shooting and performance itself. superior.

   And the more so, the more people are dissatisfied with him.

   By the way, Job thought for a while, and suddenly it seemed that the game called Metal Gear was released in the past few days, right?

   It’s a pity that the shooting base here is too far from the city, and the communication is not particularly smooth. I don’t know how the game I starred in will turn out. I hope I won’t mess up such a big investment.

   He didn't know how much such a game would cost to make before he took part.

   After he finished performing his own content, he realized that the development cost of a game like Metal Gear plus the cost of publicity would exceed 200 million US dollars, and it would take at least 5 million sales to make a return.

   This really surprised him. In the past, he didn't know much about video games. Was it that the production cost of video games was so high?

   This is more exaggerated than the average movie development cost.

   And after that he was a little worried about whether his performance was worthy of a game developed by 200 million US dollars.

   However, his worries were obviously superfluous.

   There was not much of a storm in his crew.

  But in the outside world, there are still many places that are crazy about the release of Metal Gear.
