Chapter Four
Liang Hui and her assistant Yu Tong rushed from Yanjing to Shanghai overnight. She had already passed the confinement period and returned to her enthusiasm for filming twelve films and TV series in the previous year.
After getting on the vehicle waiting outside the airport, Yu Tong sat in the co-pilot, Liang Hui sat next to Zhang Jiajia in the back row, and reached out to pull up the partition with the cab.
Zhang Jiajia advised her: "Aunt Liang called me and asked me to persuade you that now when the child is about to recognize others, don't be unable to see the child all day long, for fear that you will regret your current decision in the future."
Liang Hui couldn't hide her fatigue, leaned against the back seat, and looked at her former agent who had worked with her for nearly ten years: "Jia Jia, there's no way. You know how fierce the competition in the entertainment industry is now. Now we born in the 1985 can still hold on, but look at Mo Han and the born in the 1990s have risen. If I don't work hard, I will be eliminated."
"You just don't admit defeat. "He Sheng Xiaomo" has ranked first in all the stars, and even the second broadcast rights have been sold at a sky-high price. In addition, "Breakup Master" will be released next month, you don't have to worry at all."
"Isn't this a habit? When the three of us left Rong Zhixin, we were so frightened at that time. Thanks to you and Zhiyao walking around, we have today." Liang Hui said: "Now the company is bigger, with more resources, but there are more people. In the past, we competed with other companies, but now we have to compete with our own company actors first."
"Overall, it's still a good phenomenon. At least there are no messy things outside. If you have any questions, everyone can communicate privately. Even if you find Mr. Shen unreasonably, you can still have a fair reply."
"Yes, being able to think so now means you are really out of the way." Liang Hui smiled and said, "For Shen Fang, no matter who benefits, the company will eventually make a profit."
Zhang Jiajia said: "By the way, Director Qu informed me today that the company has decided to use the public relations resources of the Golden Eagle Goddess on Bao Xiaoying. In the past two years, she has achieved success in many film and television dramas and is quite sure to win the award. The compensation for you is the first recording guest of "Running Man" and the special guest of the "Super Challenge" charity concert. In addition, other resources are given priority to you, so you don't have to worry. Even if Bao Xiaoying wins the Golden Eagle Goddess, you are still the number one actress in our companies."
"I know this. I haven't appeared for more than half a year, so it's a bit inappropriate for participating in the Golden Eagle Goddess selection." Liang Hui nodded: "I just didn't expect that Bao Xiaoying, who came from the countryside, has really become a climate. Fortunately, Mo Han and her set up a studio together, otherwise if she was signed by Huayi or Happy, it would have a greater impact on us."
Zhang Jiajia said: "Mo Han is more generous. If she shares the studio equity equally with her, her future prospects will be better."
Liang Hui couldn't help but sigh: "If it weren't for having a baby in the first half of this year, this year would have been my harvest year. Last time I passed by the Golden Eagle Goddess, and this time it was like this again. I'm thirty in the next session, and I'm embarrassed to participate in the Golden Eagle Goddess selection. There's really no hope in the future."
Zhang Jiajia held Liang Hui without saying a word, and the vehicle continued to move forward. As the city that never sleeps, the colorful neon lights kept flying backwards with the speed of the vehicle moving forward, just like life, although gorgeous, they can never be kept.
Although Liang Hui has a house in Binjiang No. 1, she still stayed in a hotel rented by "Tiny Times" just to communicate with Guo Liming tomorrow morning.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chen Fang said rightly that many people can't sleep, including Guo Liming. He received a report from his assistant at around 10 o'clock the day before. He was so angry that he had not closed his eyes all night and smashed the hotel TV.
The next morning, when Chen Li arrived at the hotel, he saw the mess in Guo Liming's room, and hurriedly asked the assistant standing beside him to find the hotel to help him clean up. Unexpectedly, he was not tall but had a pretty big temper.
"Mr. Chen, what do you think you should do now? The report I had originally notified today will be held, and the press conference will be held tomorrow, and the shooting will be held the day after tomorrow. The press conference is ready, and the media reporters are waiting to see the joke." Guo Liming looked frustrated. Why is he so unlucky? Because of Liang Hui, the drama has been delayed for a year. Now it is just about to start filming, but this problem has occurred again.
Producer and producer Chen Li said firmly: "The press conference photos are open, please let Liang Hui help me. If any media ask, we will firmly support national laws and support China's policy on handling bad artists. At the same time, find alternative actors in the circle as soon as possible."
"Director Guo, Mr. Chen, Liang Hui is here." While the two were discussing countermeasures, the assistant notified Liang Hui to come and visit.
When Guo Liming heard Liang Hui's arrival, he felt annoyed: "I don't want to see her, Mr. Chen, please receive her."
"You go and invite her in." Chen Li comforted Guo Liming: "Let's meet him. After all, she is no longer the young actor who worked alone. I still have to worry about some things."
"Well, okay." He is stronger than others, and he should bow his head or bow his head. After so many years in the circle, he still knows which one is more important, so just said something angry just now, and Chen Li gave him a step, so he took it.
Liang Hui came in, Guo Liming's face was still a little gloomy. Chen Li glared at him, but he didn't respond much.
"Hello, Director Guo! Mr. Chen, you are here too. I also said I would visit you." Liang Hui didn't care much about Guo Liming's attitude, but took the two gift boxes that Yu Tong was carrying: "I know you two like to drink tea, especially the best Mingqian Longjing that we plundered from our boss to give you to you to taste."
"Wow, Mr. Chen's good tea must be tasted well. I was lucky enough to taste it once at Director Zheng Xiaolong last time. It's so superb." Chen Li winked at Guo Liming and said, "Director Guo, just give me these two boxes. I'll exchange it for you with the last frozen oolong."
"No way, this is something Liang Hui brought to me specifically. You are all benefiting from it." Guo Liming stood up and took his box into the inner room. The atmosphere was no longer as awkward as it was at the beginning.
Chen Li waited for Guo Liming to come out and said to Liang Hui: "Liang Hui, you know about Ke Dong, you should also know. Director Guo and I are discussing what to do."
"Director Guo, Mr. Chen, I think this is a good thing." Liang Hui's words made both of them widen their eyes, and they looked at her in confusion, waiting for her to explain: "Director Guo, you only see that his arrest this time has an impact on us, but have you ever thought that if we were halfway through the filming or when we were about to be released, it would be a real disaster."
Liang Hui's words made the two of them sweat. Yes, they were always worried about how to deal with this matter, but they didn't think that if this matter broke out half a year or a year later, then wouldn't their investment be wasted?
Even if the National Net opens the screen and lets it be released, how much does it cost to build up the relationship? Now the crew only needs to issue a statement, at least they can change actors and postpone the filming for a few days.
Guo Liming, who figured it out, stood up and looked straight in Liang Hui's eyes, then bowed to her: "I'm so stubborn and have been thinking about delaying it, and I didn't think about it in this regard. Thank you for your reminder."
"I dare not, I dare not. Director Guo, to be honest, I am a member of the bureau like you. This is what our boss reminded me last night. I also asked about it. The happy President Jiang is really angry. They are doing the later stage and preparing for the Spring Festival. Now Ke Dong has been arrested. If he doesn't want to be wasted, all the scenes of the male protagonist will have to be reshooted."
Hearing that there was something even worse, Guo Liming couldn't help but raise his lips, and felt it was not suitable, so he immediately restrained his expression and looked at Liang Hui and said, "This time I guess we need to recruit the male protagonist again. Liang Hui, you have enough relationships in the circle. Is there any suitable person to recommend the three artist brokerage companies in Wild Fox Company?"
Guo Liming's words made Chen Li's eyes lit up, and he said, "You have so many young students in your company, are there any suitable recommendations?"
"How many people are suitable for you?" Liang Hui said: "Like Zhang Bingbing and Li Yunlong who traveled around the world, Jiang Haoyu from Yiren Film and Television is also very suitable. Including Bai Yiting, who filmed "Return to Twenty" with Mo Han, is also not inferior to Ke Dong's appearance and temperament."
Guo Liming asked his assistant to bring his laptop over and open the Wild Fox Company's group website. The following three branches have data and found several male actors recommended by Liang Hui. As expected, his temperament and appearance are not inferior to Ke Dong, especially Bai Yiting, who is gentle and elegant, and he is even closer to Gu Yuan's prototype than Ke Dong.
"All of them are good, but their fame is a little weaker." Chen Li said from the side: "Now that this is happening, you must find someone with a lot of fame and traffic, so that you can divert the audience's attention in later publicity."
Liang Hui was originally selfish, and it can be seen from the two artists she recommended to travel around the world that she had not satisfied, so she would follow the established plan: "If you want a famous person, you can only find Yang Yang. He is now considered the top traffic among Chinese male stars, with a lot of topics, and there is also a top variety show to support him. I am not afraid of no publicity highlights in the later stage."
"Does Yang Yang have a schedule now?" After hearing Liang Hui recommend Yang Yang, Guo Liming immediately became energetic: "It would be better if he could come. With his own traffic blessing, it would be more suitable than Ke Dong."
"I'll ask." Liang Hui took out her cell phone from Yu Tong, went to the next room to make a phone call. She only came out about five minutes later, and made a slightly embarrassed expression at Guo Liming: "Director Guo, Yang Yang is now filming "A Smile Is Beautiful" and it won't end until the end of July. Do you think it's time?"
Chen Li looked at Guo Liming with an unhappy expression, kicked him with his feet and said, "It's too late, it's too late. Because of Ke Dong's affairs, we had to delay a few days before the filming was started, and this delay was about the 20th. We can also shoot other scenes in the early stage, and we can just take it over when he joins the group by the end of the month."
"Okay, since you agree, I will notify his agent and let them arrive in Shanghai in the afternoon. This matter must be confirmed and you can feel at ease sooner or later." After that, Liang Hui took out her cell phone. This time she didn't go to the next door, but called Li Xiaowan in front of the two of them.
"Tiny Times" can be found to replace actors, but for "Monster Hunt", which has been filmed and prepared to produce the post-production special effects, it is a huge trouble.
"Is there no way? Can you find someone to fish him out?" As a native of Xiangjiang, Jiang Zhiqiang has his own code of conduct. He kept holding back the anger in his heart. He looked at the producer in front of him who once recommended Ke Dong to him and asked coldly.
"Mr. Jiang, the official microblog of Yanjing police has been disclosed. After a night of fermentation, the coverage of this matter is now covered. The impact is too great and it cannot be covered."
My father, who is also the publisher of the movie, has always warned Jiang Zhiqiang that he should be calm whenever he encounters major events so that he can remain calm in the face of danger. He is also working hard to do this, but he doesn't know who to vent his anger in his heart. He has invested more than 100 million yuan, and now he is fucking it.
"Like his agent filed a lawsuit, Wanwan artists will use less in the future. They will become fans if they have a little fucking reputation, racing, and gambling. No matter how famous these birds are, don't recommend them to me." Jiang Zhiqiang finally couldn't help but curse.
Several people around him looked at the boss who had always appeared in front of everyone in a gentle and elegant image, waiting for his next instructions.
"Help me check the recent whereabouts of Mr. Shen from Guifu Tiangong Company. I want to discuss countermeasures with him." I heard that there is a face-changing technology abroad now. The seventh part of "Fast and Furious" is in such a late stage. I don't know if it can be done. Oh, I'm really depressed.
At this time, Shen Fang and Qin Mohan were also blocked by reporters who came to Yiwu Airport.
"We are condemning to any bad artist. From the date of its establishment, Wild Fox Company has strictly restricted its artists, whether it is pornography, gambling, drugs or other bad behaviors. As long as it is discovered, it will be firmly banned."
Instead of avoiding talking to reporters like before, Shen Fang expressed his views with Qin Mohan in front of all the media people, attracting them to him. Qin Ruoxi and Jin Yaran, who came with him, got on the business car sent by the crew under the escort of Zhou Qi and others.
Before getting on the bus, Shen Fang would like to announce something that he had confirmed with Huo Mingda in the morning: "In order to pay tribute to every brave and fearless anti-drug police officer and to these most lovely and respectable people, our company will bring the '10.5' case that happened in the Mekong River Basin in the past few years to the big screen. We hope that through this video, we can tell the world how much our brave anti-drug police have paid for our harmonious and stable motherland."
