Chapter 962: The Chinese Television and Acting Association
Translator: Lan_ Editor: Efydatia
The director’s face was stiff as he finished his negotiation with Qin Guan. Then, Sister Xue pulled Qin Guan away to fill in a form.
It was an application for the Chinese Television and Acting Association.
In the past, actors had been employed by the governnt. These days though, they all followed the international standards and worked as freelancers. Thus, regulating their behavior, clarifying their direction when it ca to work and life, and setting goals for the dia had beco the governnt’s job.
Due to the lack of standards, so actors who beca famous overnight had a very negative influence on the public. They engaged in fights, drove under the influence, took drugs and generally embarrassed the entertainnt circle.
The association, which had been an initiative of actors from the Chinese mainland, had been founded in collaboration with other influential Chinese actors living abroad. It was actually an independent society approved by the governnt and the SARFT.
As a famous actor, Qin Guan had to support the association at its new beginning.
When he filled in the paperwork, Qin Guan was inford about the general guidelines of the association. The guidelines seed like an official docunt, which made him feel suspicious.
This seemingly spontaneous society was actually a national association of actors controlled by the governnt. All its mbers had to be careful what they said and did in public.
The admission criteria and fees confird Qin Guan’s suspicions.
People like him, who had won awards both dostically and internationally, could beco mbers directly without paying any fees, but even ordinary actors only had to pay 10-20 yuan annually.
Such a fee was not enough to pay for a tea party, let alone a grand gala.
Is there perhaps a selfless sponsor involved? God knows!
Before he could co back to his senses, Sister Xue handed Qin Guan two certificates.
"What are these?"
"Your professional qualification certificates."
"What the f*ck..."
The two red certificates were his Acting Certification and his mbership Card.
The second one was easy to understand, but the first one... Qin Guan had never taken any acting exams.
"It’s a reward. The chairman of the association said that you can get it without taking an exam. It would be ridiculous for you to sit such an exam. It’s a reward. Understand?"
He was getting the special treatnt for winning every acting award in existence.
I should express my appreciation to the organization and the directors.
"Who is the chairman this year?"
"Tang Guoqiang."
He’s not an acquaintance of mine. I’ll do this later.
Qin Guan had no idea that he would et those nationally-exclusive actors later.
As soon as he arrived in Shanghai, he received a docunt from the association. They were notifying him about the importance of the right direction of TV and entertainnt news, as well as the severe punishnt of spreading fake news.
Qin Guan was confused by the notice, but the staff of "Cheers! Good Boys!" explained everything to him.
"You must ignore the dia, sir. There have been a lot of fabricated news lately. Reporters are very inventive when it cos to making up news about social affairs. Fake news have been published in magazines and newspapers. So were even broadcast on TV. They have been causing chaos everywhere. This is a very big deal."
What was going on? Qin Guan was curious.
Wang let out a long sigh.
"Forget it. Just finish your job first. As soon as you are done, I’ll send you all the relative material at the hotel."
"Okay. Just don’t forget."
