Chapter 260 "Da Sheng Dynasty" suddenly came online, Chenxi established an investment department
Jinli couldn't help but sigh when she knew what Lian Baozhi had gone through during this period:
"Some people are like weeds. As long as you give them a chance, they will grab it with all their strength and rise against the trend."
Sui Lingfang nodded in agreement: "Who knew she would be so generous? Although she is a first-tier star, she does not have the arrogance of a first-tier star."
Despite the supercilious looks of her sworn enemy, she insisted on participating in the same program with her, just to gain popularity on the Internet.
Not every star can do this kind of thing that repeatedly tortures their self-esteem.
Even A-list celebrities have differences in personality.
Some front-line workers work hard and gain status by relying on the performance of their works. They will particularly protect their privacy.
But some A-listers rely on sensationalism to get to the top. In order to create a show effect, they do not hesitate to expose their family affairs in public.
Just to entertain the public.
Struggle in the entertainment industry is difficult to say, but it is not difficult to say that it is not difficult. Everyone has their own opportunities, and it depends on whether they can seize the opportunity.
Just like Lian Baozhi, the cards she got were all the worst, but she relied on her shameless spirit to turn bad cards into good ones, which is also a skill.
After Jinli learned about the latest hot topics, she started processing the news on WeChat.
Every time the crew wraps up filming, she posts on Moments to commemorate it, and this time is no exception.
All the final photos of "Assassination" are in the circle of friends, and many celebrities have come to leave messages, including "congratulations" and other blessings.
In addition, some celebrities would deliberately send messages to Jinli to chat and get close to each other. It was nothing more than asking about new movies to be filmed and whether there was a chance to work together.
These stars want to find Jinli to take them with them. Maybe Jinli remembers him and actually recommends one or two small roles?
They don’t choose either!
Amidst the congratulations, Xu Wenwen's message in the circle of friends seemed unusual.
Xu Wenwen: [Finally finished, it’s not easy, everything will go smoothly in the future]
Just as Jinli replied her "Smoothly", a message from Qiu Qiwen in her WeChat Moments popped up on her phone.
Qiu Qiwen: [After all the hardships, everything will go smoothly! 】
Jinli also replied to her: [Let’s work hard together! 】
She glanced at the comments of the two people. They were quite at odds before she joined the group, but she didn't expect that the comments were unanimous.
In a group of pink girls.
Jinli finished filming today and sent a message to the group chat, which immediately became active.
Carp: [Finished! Picture.jpg]
Lotus: [Envy, you have finished filming, but my disaster is about to begin. "The Great Dynasty" suddenly aired tomorrow! ]
Lotus: [I play the second female lead, it’s my first time acting, and I’m so afraid of being publicly executed! ]
Ji Qinglian's news was more important than Jinli's news, and it blew up all the divers.
NANA: [I won’t mention those dramas of mine. They are all youth idol dramas that show off their talents and have nothing to say. On the contrary, it is @Lotus’s "The Greatest Dynasty", which you can really pay attention to (laughing) ( Surprised) (expected)]
Mengmeng: [The marketing efforts of "The Greatest Dynasty" are not small. People have been breaking the news since the filming started last year. Last month, the news was also posted on the hot search. This time it suddenly starts airing, there will definitely be a lot of people paying attention]
Pearl: [Why so suddenly, why don’t you start any reservation to watch the drama? ]
Even Gong Zitong, who had never paid much attention to film and television, asked specifically.
Tongtong: ["The Great Dynasty" directed by Mo Xiaosheng? Everyone in my family is looking forward to it, and so am I]
Lotus: [Don’t you never watch these idol dramas @彤彤]
Tongtong: [Director Mo Xiaosheng is not filming an idol drama, but a serious drama. He just likes to choose young actors with good acting skills and good image]
Lotus: [Suddenly praised, a little excited (covering face in shame)]
Tongtong: [But if you don’t shoot well, it will become a stain on the director]
Carp: [heartbroken]
Pearl: [Great job! ]
Mengmeng: [Send fire to the lotus above (smirking)]
Jinli looked up from her phone and asked Sister Fang, "Do you know that "Da Sheng Dynasty" will be broadcast tomorrow?"
Sui Lingfang's eyes flashed with confusion: ""The Great Dynasty"?"
It took her a while to remember something, and she looked a little excited: "You said that "Da Sheng Dynasty" will be broadcast tomorrow. It is definitely tomorrow. Why is it so sudden and I haven't received the news!"
Seeing her like this, Jinli knew that the crew had been very careful about the launch, and they didn't quite understand why it was going online so suddenly. It looked like they were in a hurry.
Sui Lingfang pondered for a while: "Maybe it's due to policy. I heard that ancient puppet dramas have become popular in recent years, and many plots have been magically changed. There is news that this year the trend will tighten in this area, and the entire ancient drama sector will be affected. ”
She continued: "Furthermore, "Da Sheng Dynasty" is produced by director Mo Xiaosheng. The whole industry is paying attention to it, and netizens have been watching it. If it is too high-profile, it will cause unnecessary trouble.
Whether a drama can become popular depends on publicity, but it also needs quality.
Once "The Greatest Dynasty" is launched, there will definitely be no shortage of popularity, and there will be no need to conduct any pre-launch promotional activities. As long as the show can be successfully aired, it is a victory. ”
Jinli's eyes darkened slightly: "Sure enough, the early broadcast of every drama represents the trade-offs of all parties."
The group was still very lively, and Ji Qinglian revealed some more news, but it was limited.
She is even more worried that her acting skills will be severely criticized by netizens.
When I first took on this drama, I wanted to keep a low profile and avoid the publicity. I didn't hold the idea of "definitely becoming a hit".
Ji Qinglian also didn't expect that so many people would pay attention to "The Great Dynasty", which put a lot of pressure on her.
Li Yu: [Does Zhang Guang know about this? ]
Lotus: [I know, he was the one who notified me of the temporary launch]
Liyu: [Don’t worry, he is a very good person and will definitely prepare several crisis public relations documents for you in advance. You can try to talk to him openly and exchange sincerity for sincerity]
Lotus: [I am a little hesitant, after all, my previous agent...]
Liyu: [Let’s give it a try. I have a lot of contact with Yue Yue Tian, and I have a lot of contact with Zhang Guang. The reason why Yue Yue Tian is so popular is definitely half of Zhang Guang’s credit. They also have a very good relationship with Zhang Guang. As close as brothers]
When Ji Qinglian saw this, he hesitated for a while and finally made up his mind.
Lotus: [I will ask him later]
An hour and a half later, Jinli was sent to the apartment by Sui Lingfang.
It was already ten o'clock in the night, and Sui Lingfang asked her to go to bed early and go to the company for a meeting tomorrow.
Jinli also wanted to know the news about those two dramas, so he gestured "OK" to her.
She was very tired after the whole day. Jinli didn't start the live broadcast after taking a shower. She forced herself to finish a foreign language paper before going to rest.
When she woke up early the next morning, she opened WeChat and found that Gu Cheng had sent a message after she went to bed last night.
Gu Cheng: [Are you asleep? ]
Gu Cheng: […]
Gu Cheng: [I cried a lot today. Isn’t it a bit embarrassing? ]
Jinli's eyes slightly curved and she smiled and wrote him a reply——
Jinli: [Yes, ugly]
Jinli: [Don’t cry next time (fierce.jpg)]
After returning home, Jinli went out for a run. For some reason, Gu Cheng's desperately crying face kept echoing in his mind.
They say women are made of water, but Gu Cheng started crying after entering the scene yesterday, and it just kept running like a faucet.
Jinli came back after exercising, picked up her phone, took a look at it, and accidentally changed the note for Gu Cheng.
From the previous name [Gu Dajuan·Chengzi], it was changed to [Lin Daiyu·Chengzi].
She nodded with satisfaction, much more pleasing to the eye.
Gu Cheng, on his side, saw the text message from Jinli after waking up and fell into self-doubt.
Chen Lin got up sleepily and went to the bathroom. Suddenly he saw Gu Cheng sitting in the living room, ready to go. He was startled and said quickly:
"Am I late? What time is it now? I'll pack it up immediately!"
Gu Cheng shook his head seriously: "No, Xiao Lin, am I ugly when I cry?"
Chen Lin:? ? ?
"Are you crazy? Why do you suddenly think of asking this so early in the morning?"
Chen Lin himself was stunned.
After going to the bathroom, he returned to the bedroom. He took out his cell phone and looked at it. It was only half past six in the morning. He couldn't help but mutter: "You are really crazy!"
Wait until half past eight in the morning.
When Yan Xingdong came over to wake everyone up, Chen Lin shared his morning experience with everyone.
Everyone else couldn't help but look at Gu Cheng, and Yan Xingdong asked, "Why are you interested in my crying expression?" Gu Cheng's expression froze, and he didn't want to say anything because of his face.
Luo Yi suddenly lost his mind and thought of something: "We are going to hold a concert tour in a month. Are you worried that we will burst into tears and look ugly?"
Chen Lin suddenly clapped his hands, "Yeah, I remember the concert the year before last. We all cried. From the video, it looked so ugly that all the makeup came off!"
He looked at Gu Cheng excitedly: "I'm sorry, I was wrong, but you must be prepared for a rainy day!"
Yan Xingdong was successfully led astray: "So in our free time, we still have to practice crying scenes?"
Luo Yi agreed and said: "We can't throw away the baggage of idols. When the time comes, we will create a 'Fairy Man Crying' and let fans praise us for crying beautifully!"
Gu Cheng:......
No, he didn't have this idea.
But Gu Cheng thought about it and decided, forget it, he missed the window for the best explanation, so let's just let this wonderful misunderstanding continue.
On the other side, Jinli came to Chenxi Entertainment for a meeting.
When Chenxi Entertainment started construction after the new year, it received praise from Mr. Xiao and received an investment of 50 million, and the entire company began to become wealthy again.
Sister Fang mentioned this to her. Chenxi Entertainment was not the best in Mr. Xiao's business landscape. After all, Mr. Xiao had many listed companies.
The growth rate of Chenxi Entertainment's development last year was only 20% higher than the previous year, which ranked it in the middle of the pack among other companies.
Companies in this position generally cannot obtain any large investments and can only engage in internal competition, giving money to whoever comes out first.
But because it involves entertainment attributes, its artists are often on hot searches.
Especially the hot searches on the front, Mr. Xiao also gained face, so he was so happy that he threw a sum of money at random.
The words "casual" and "throw" are so well used.
After returning from the crew of "Assassination", she has not been to the company for four months. Now that she looks at it, she feels that the company looks completely different.
The most obvious thing to the senses is that there are more people, and there are no longer three or two kittens like before.
The number of celebrities recruited has also increased. They still don’t recruit trainees, but the ones who can be launched at any time.
After seeing Jinli, these little celebrities greeted her cordially.
"Good morning, sister Jinli!"
"Has Jinli come back from filming?"
"Sister Jinli, please work harder!"
Jinli blinked and smiled back.
"Sister Jinli!"
Gong Jiajia ran from behind, jumped to her side, held her hand and asked questions.
She couldn't hide things and quickly told her about the company's recent changes.
The department expanded...
There are more stars and staff...
The share ratio of the contract has also become looser...
"By the way, Sister Jinli, did you know that the company has established an investment department?"
Jinli couldn't help but be stunned, "Investment Department? What do you mean?"
Gong Jiajia said: "The company will allocate part of the funds to invest in some small and medium-sized films. We hope to use the investment department to achieve internal circulation of funds and follow the model of making money, investing, making money, and continuing to invest."
Jinli thought for a while and shook his head slowly: "It's quite difficult."
In fact, what she wanted to say was that it was unreliable.
If it's placed in a large brokerage company like Tianding, that's fine.
But Chenxi's system is so small, and the company currently has to rely on Mr. Xiao's kindness to expand its scale. The money earned from celebrities is simply not enough for them to play like this.
But how much money can Mr. Xiao give?
Tens of millions of dollars, when invested in a film, would not make much splash.
That's why Chenxi Entertainment has decided to invest in small and medium-sized films, but this is still difficult.
The cost of small and medium-sized films is also not simple, and it seems that Dawn Entertainment can only invest one to two million for each film.
If it's not within this range, they may not be able to invest in as many dramas as ten.
For large productions, the investment amount is too small and they don’t want to let you in at all, and even if you can join, the dividend ratio you can get is too small.
This kind of credit is okay for small productions, but considering the cyclicality of the film and television industry, the repayment is slow...
Jinli didn't comment on his face, but shook his head again in his heart.
If half of the ten films invested can be released, it is considered lucky.
But it’s hard to say what Chenxi Entertainment’s real intention is in setting up an investment department. Maybe they don’t want to cast a wide net, but just want to spend money to invest in one or two movies?
This is also impossible to say.
Gong Jiajia is quite interested in this investment department. She is still young and energetic, and has not been tortured by work. She said happily:
"Sister Fang said that she will let all her artists participate in the investment. If it is a drama invested by the company, the artist can choose not to be paid, or only need part of the salary, and put the money from the salary into the investment amount, and enjoy the finished film. ”
Jinli's eyelids twitched.
"It's a pity that I'm not an actor, otherwise I would also like to take a gamble and try my hand at turning my bicycle into a motorcycle!"
Jinli said jokingly: "Maybe I lose all my money and jump into the sea."
This method can also be used by first-tier stars, because the salaries of first-tier stars are at a premium.
Putting the premium part into the investment of the crew will not affect most of the interests of the stars.
But for small stars, the pay is just that little.
Using the remuneration to invest in the crew is equivalent to transferring part of the risks of the crew to the actors. Young actors only have four words:
A dead end.
Jinli said sincerely: "It's a good idea. Any decision you make in the future must be discussed with Sister Fang. As your agent, at least she won't cheat you."
Lest you make decisions privately, don’t understand anything, and end up killing yourself.
Gong Jiajia nodded, not hearing the deeper meaning of her words, and said: "I have the same idea. You should listen to the opinions of professionals!"
