Chapter 653: With a background, you can keep making progress
On May 28, while Gu Wei was filming on the set, a shocking news broke out, like a bomb being dropped into a calm lake. Maybe at that time The purpose is to fry a certain fish, but its power will definitely affect other fish living in the water, and no one can escape.
The cause of the incident was a movie directed by Feng many years ago called "Mobile Phone".
At that time, the movie was very good both in terms of reputation and box office. It could be said that it was both well-received and well-received. However, one person was very unhappy. He was the former host of CCTV, Lao Ji.
The reason is that the protagonist of [Mobile Phone], Yan Shouyi, is also a famous host. The program he hosts is called [One Story, One Story], which is almost consistent with the reality show hosted by Lao Ji, [Tell the Truth].
And this Yan Shouyi is a man whose love life is unclear. In addition to a normal marriage, he also maintains a long-term lover relationship with May, played by Fan Bingbing.
What was even worse was that he later suffered from depression, which reminded the audience of Lao Cui in real life.
After the movie was released, many people felt that Director Feng's movie was a reflection of a certain famous host, which brought a lot of unnecessary trouble to Lao Cui's life.
Later, Lao Cui communicated this matter with Director Feng, hoping that he could make a statement. However, Director Feng was in his prime at that time and would not pay attention to such a request. He was too lazy to even deal with it, so the two of them The bridge is finally closed.
In the blink of an eye, 15 years have passed. Lao Cui got the news that [Mobile Phone 2] would start filming two months ago, so he couldn't sit still and communicated with Huayi, Director Feng, and even screenwriter Liu Zhenyun again. The result is naturally ignored.
Fan Bingbing was so desperate that he posted a Weibo message at this juncture.
"May was very happy at the filming location of the movie [Mobile Phone 2]!"
Attached is a beautiful selfie of herself.
Later, Laojie completely exposed some unspoken rules about contracts and taxes in the film and television industry. The public was in an uproar, and the authorities intervened. Those who jumped the most were immediately disappointed
In the film and television industry A number of big and small celebrities have begun to take the initiative to pay back their previous taxes.
On Monday, the second week after the incident happened, film and television stocks collectively fell sharply after the A-share market opened.
The share price of Huayi, which is listed in Hong Kong, once plummeted by more than 20%.
As of the noon close, the market value of 10 leading film and television companies, including Tangde Film and Television and Huanrui Century, has shrunk by a total of 10.7 billion yuan!
In recent years, a large amount of capital has poured into the film and television field, causing stars' salaries to rise again and again, and the production costs of film and television dramas to rise rapidly. This crisis has also calmed down the hot money.
Since then, taxation has become the most important thing for all film and television companies and stars.
"Is there no problem at the company?"
When the storm happened, Gu Wei took leave from the mountain city and flew to Hangzhou. Although he had expected it and had been very cautious, he still called Yang Liwen.
“Don’t worry, boss, the company pays taxes according to regulations every year. We don’t dare to make any mistakes. Our colleagues in the finance and legal departments are the most professional and will never let the company make any omissions in this matter. .
And the company is an A-level tax-paying enterprise in Beijing. It has been rated as an advanced tax-paying enterprise and a star enterprise in the city in the past two years. There will definitely be no problem
According to your wishes. , the company's artists are also taxed by the company. Although the tax aspects of several of its studios are independent, the staff are from the company and will be subject to regular verification, so there is no need to worry."
< br>
Yang Liwen said a lot. She knew very well that her boss attached great importance to the company's tax issues.
At first, I was a little disapproving. I felt that my boss was too honest. There were too many people in the circle who evaded taxes. It had become a default unspoken rule, and the boss's approach seemed a bit silly.
However, Gu Wei repeatedly explained this kind of thing, and she followed the request. After all, it was the boss's money, so he didn't feel bad about it, and others couldn't say anything.
Now that this incident has come out, she realizes that the boss is the boss, and he sees things from a high perspective.
At this stage, the country is vigorously rectifying tax issues in the entertainment industry and the film and television industry. Everyone is paying back taxes. Only [Wei Tianxia] and its artists are sitting on Diaoyutai without being affected at all.
Ordinary viewers and netizens don’t know about this kind of thing, but there are no secrets in the circle. The artists under [Wei Ming Xia] have such a good reputation, which will be good for future dramas. At least they will not be exposed to the sudden thunder of the actors. , turning film and television dramas into waste products that cannot be released.
[Produce 101] More than a month has passed since the first episode was broadcast on April 21.
Of the 101 women's team players, after layers of selection and several promotions, there are currently only 36 players left.
As the competition continues, these 36 players will be screened twice, 36 will be promoted to 22, and the finals will select 1 from 2. In the end, only 11 players will make their debut as a group.
Early this morning, 36 girls gathered in a lecture theater.
"101 Radio is reporting for you, I am Wang Ju, I am Sunnee"
Other contestants were sitting in the audience, Wang Ju and Wang Ju were selected as temporary hosts, reading the instructions given to them by the program team Host words.
“.As the final date approaches, we are very fortunate to have invited a special teacher to give us pre-match guidance.”
“First of all, he is from mainland China. The top idol star has countless loyal fans."
"Secondly, he has produced many classic works, which are deeply loved by fans and movie fans."
The two sang in harmony while reading the host's words in front of the stage, and the 34 girls below also cooperated and made exaggerated responses. Although everyone did not know who the instructor was, after recording the program for such a long time, the effect of the program will always be Made.
Yang Chaoyue was undoubtedly sitting among a group of girls. Although in the first two rounds of ratings of [Produce 101], her best score was only Class C, but she was promoted from 101 to 55 and 55 to 36. In the two rounds of selection, she received an unexpectedly high number of votes, qualifying in third and second place twice.
This result was not only unexpected by the 101 girl group members, but also Yang Chaoyue himself was very surprised.
Recently, the comments on her online have not been very friendly.
Other contestants either sing or dance, and they always have skills that they are good at. Yang Chaoyue is a bit incapable of doing anything, and his hips are stretched when he sings and dances.
But every time it was her turn to speak, she performed very well, giving people a real and unpretentious feeling. Coupled with the advantage of appearance, she won the love of a large part of the audience.
And Yang Chaoyue discovered that the instructors on the show seemed to be extra tolerant of her, especially Huang Zitao, the founder and chief producer of the girl group who had the most contact, was extra gentle when talking to her.
[Produce 101] Just like Supergirl back then, the contestants try their best to show themselves on the stage. Whether you can advance or not is not decided by the instructor, nor does it depend on your performance. It all depends on the audience's likes and votes. , whoever has more votes will be ranked first.
Currently, the first place in the two rounds of promotion are Wu Xuanyi and Meng Meiqi. Both of them are trainees under Lehua. They debuted in the group [Cosmic Girls] and have a certain reputation in themselves. , and his professional skills in singing and dancing are indeed excellent, and many audiences like him.
Yang Chaoyue is very clear about her level. Judging from her performance on the show, there are many people who are better than her among the 101 women's team players.
At first, she felt a lot of pressure. After all, her current ranking was indeed unworthy of her, and she would definitely feel uncomfortable being criticized.
And because there was a big gap between performance and ranking, she was ranked second after advancing to the top 36 in the last round. Yang Chaoyue was sensitive to the gap between other women's team players and her.
In fact, this situation is inevitable. She is not strong enough and cannot convince the crowd by relying on luck.
However, Yang Chaoyue knew in her heart that her current ranking may not be explained by pure luck. Not to mention the instructor's attitude, when she watched the previous episodes of the program, she clearly felt that the program crew had exposed her face. The shots cut more. [Produce 101] There are a total of 101 contestants, and one episode only lasts 120 minutes. The time for everyone to show their face in each episode is very limited. If the audience can't remember you, how can they vote for you.
Yang Chaoyue carefully discovered that she had the most shots among the contestants in every issue. Then she recalled that when she contacted Sister Yang Dan several times, she was told to perform well and not to worry about the rest. She was somewhat aware of her high ranking. What's going on.
After all, she had been with Gu Wei for a while, and she also knew some of the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry from the people around her. Things like shady and behind-the-scenes operations were perfectly normal.
Furthermore, after her high number of votes in the last two programs, she was promoted. Although there were many voices complaining about her on the Internet, I don’t know where her nicknames of "Lucky Star" and "Koi" came from. , Yang Chaoyue guessed that this might be the company behind her doing marketing operations for her.
After thinking about this, she felt that the pressure on her body was much less, and she didn't care so much about the attitudes of the people around her.
She believes that since her boss protects her, she will definitely have a place among the final 11 places to debut.
After Wang Ju and Sunnee finished reading the host words, they returned to the girl group. Cheerful background music began to play on the field, and then a tall figure walked in from the door.
“Hello, everyone!”
Gu Wei walked into the room wearing casual casual clothes, smiling and waving to the 36 girls in the room.
“Ahhh! It’s actually Gu Wei!”
“Gu Wei, my God, I read that right!!”
"Wow! Idol! Idol!"
"This is the first time I have seen Gu Wei in person. He is so handsome. No, I have to take it slow!"
"Program The team is so awesome that they actually invited Gu Wei to cheer us up, that’s awesome!”
“.”
After Gu Wei entered the door, the atmosphere in the room reached its peak. All 36 little girls got excited and turned into little fans in an instant. If they didn't have some sense to know that this was a recording of a show, they would have wanted to rush forward and get in close contact with their idols.
Yang Chaoyue was also very pleasantly surprised. Her performance was not as exaggerated as others. After all, they had seen her every day before and were already past the star-chasing stage. However, her eyes were wide open and she didn't believe that the boss could come.
It is actually normal for Gu Wei to come to participate in [Produce 101] today.
He came to cheer up the top 36 girl group members, help the program team attract more attention, and also to promote the upcoming movie.
After a while, the little girls in the room calmed down. They all stared at Gu Wei in front of them with wide eyes, like Zhu Bajie looking at the ginseng fruit, almost drooling.
“Hello everyone, I am Gu Wei, nice to meet you here~”
Gu Wei introduced himself, and the little girls screamed again.
“I have been watching this show since the first episode of [Produce 101] in April. After dozens of days of hard training and layer upon layer of selection, everyone has been able to get to this point. It’s really amazing. It's not easy." After everyone calmed down for a while, Gu Wei began to speak.
As Wang Ju and Sunnee said at the beginning, he came today to provide pre-match counseling to these women's team members. However, this counseling is not to teach singing or dancing, but to meet and interact with everyone to cheer them up. .
“I believe that everyone here is excellent, and you are already a winner if you have made it this far.
There will be two rounds of selections to determine the final 11 who will debut. People, I hope that each of you can correct your mentality and give your best on this stage. No matter what the result is, the most important thing is to leave no regrets."
"Okay!"
"Definitely, Teacher Gu Wei!"
"Teacher, sign your name for me!"
"."
After Gu Wei finished his words of encouragement, the girls agreed and at the same time started to heckle them. He found that he felt a little like Tang Sanzang had entered the kingdom of girls.
However, he knew that it was normal for him to be popular. He looked around with the microphone, stopped for a moment at the assistant, and looked at her.
Then he asked a question according to the pre-arranged program flow.
“After practicing and competing for such a long time, what do you think about this stage now? Do you want it to end immediately, do you want to stay a little longer, or do you never want it to end and stay on this stage all the time? ?”
After raising this question, the 36 girls were divided into groups according to their own wishes. Then starting from those who wanted to end it immediately, Gu Wei interviewed them one by one and asked everyone to express their current thoughts.
Somewhat to his surprise, the assistant chose to end it immediately.
When the microphone was handed to her hand, Yang Chaoyue, wearing pink half-sleeved pink shorts, stood up.
“I think it’s not easy for me to get to where I am now. I work really hard.
It’s just that I’m under too much pressure right now, so I want to end it as soon as possible”
"I watched your performance. Although it is not the best, you have tried your best. It is really great. I hope you can withstand the pressure and continue to work hard!"
Gu Wei Bu Bu He smiled and encouraged with a stingy smile.
After all the girls finished speaking, Gu Wei said a few more words of encouragement, then said goodbye to everyone and ended the recording.
"Brother Wei, let's have a meal together later?"
After leaving the room, Huang Zitao came up to him.
“This time you are in trouble.”
“Hey, it’s nothing, I can’t help you much, and your little assistant is really cute, and her words are very interesting. ”
Gu Wei smiled.
“What are you going to treat me to?”
“Brother Wei, you have the final say. As long as you don’t eat Hangzhou cuisine, anything will do. The local cuisine here in Hangzhou is really bad. It’s delicious. The first time I tasted the famous West Lake vinegar fish, I almost threw up.”
