You've passed the college entrance examination, but can't you make it in the entertainment
Chapter 350 The boss behind the scenes
Le Yan’s words “I can help you with it” were not just talk. He introduced Bi Xia to many first-line action directors, and personally organized dinner parties to promote cooperation.
Bi Xia has a good foundation and good conditions. He immediately made a big splash in the action film industry.
In the past, when actresses were filming action scenes, they either used a stunt double or reduced the difficulty. It was difficult for them to take on the leading role, and no one wanted to take on this role.
Rather than watching men fighting and killing each other, the audience certainly prefers to watch beautiful women in battle.
Now that Bi Xia has taken the initiative to come in, of course we welcome him!
In less than a month, Bi Xia received scripts from several directors. Under the double scrutiny of Ge Man and Deng Xuefeng, two action movies were chosen for Bi Xia to test the waters.
Le Yan's matchmaking not only brought together Juxing and Bi Xia, but also, because Ge Man was grateful for Le Yan's help, he opened the door to cooperation with Juxing.
Ge Man, who used to only produce one film a year and has only collaborated with internationally renowned directors such as Peng Yiwei in recent years, signed a package contract with the superstar for three films over three years.
She is not just here to join the collaboration this time, but will play the leading female role in all three films.
Although Bixia and Geman are still affiliated with their original companies, this collaboration once again consolidates the superstar's position in the entertainment industry.
Su Tian, Peng Yiwei, Deng Xuefeng, Li Yiran, Ge Man. These big stars who are used to working independently all said "yes" to the superstar. You can imagine how terrifying the superstar's current strength is!
Even the semi-retired Ge Man has started to be very productive, is there anyone who can’t become a superstar?
Of course, this time the credit fell on Le Yan again.
At the latest shareholders' meeting this year, his shareholding ratio increased again, from 1.56% to 2.11%, breaking the 2-digit mark for the first time.
Three consecutive increases in three years and nearly doubling of equity rewards have successfully declared LeYan's unshakable position as a superstar.
Taking this opportunity, when Ye Xinchun announced the new year's financial report, he also widely publicized the news of issuing additional shares to Le Yan.
Those in the circle who had been waiting for the superstar and Le Yan to break up finally gave up.
LeYan's relationship with the superstar is unbreakable.
As long as Le Yan is here, the superstar will not fall.
As long as the superstar doesn't fall, LeYan will continue to be popular. The two sides have formed a nuclear fusion reaction!
Once the news was released, countless classmates came to Le Yan to treat them to a meal at school.
Superstar's net profit last year was in no way inferior to that of listed companies. Doesn't your 2.11% shareholding make you financially free?
Treat me!
Le Yan is not a stingy person. He treated everyone to a meal during the first week of school, and both classes were invited together.
He found a Western restaurant with beautiful environment and high prices to entertain teachers and students of the entire grade.
"You are too superficial. Is Le Yan just rich? He is the 'capital' that you talk about every day. In front of capital, money is just a string of numbers!" Bi Xia became Le Yan's number one fan girl in the school.
She doesn't care about her status as a wife at all and always praises Le Yan to everyone she meets.
"What does that mean? Le Yan has become a capitalist?" a classmate asked.
"Capitalist?" Bi Xia stabbed the knife into the steak. "Even capitalists have to act according to your brother Yan's mood!"
"That's an exaggeration." A classmate whispered back, "No matter how awesome he is, he still has to listen to the capitalists. When will our artists ever be able to lead the capitalists by the nose?"
In the eyes of these normal third-year acting students, capitalists are the highest-level entities that decide their fate.
If the capitalists are happy and willing to support him, he will become famous.
If the capitalists are unhappy and dislike him, then he is destined to live in the basement for the rest of his life and will never be able to make a name for himself.
"Money alone cannot determine the fate of an actor." Bi Xia said thoughtfully.
The experiences she had in the past two months after the Chinese New Year were something she had never experienced in her 22 years.
It not only made her understand the cruelty of society, but also made her understand the warmth and coldness of human nature, and she grew a lot.
She couldn't elaborate on the sadness of it. First, she couldn't set a trap for herself, and second, she didn't want to cause trouble for Le Yan.
Fortunately, Superstar is a private company. If it was a state-owned enterprise, Le Yan might have been sentenced for his previous actions.
Le Yan is the greatest benefactor to her, Kong Chao and Ge Man, no doubt about it.
Although many things cannot be explained, Bi Xia's enthusiastic character has not changed. Le Yan's stepping forward made her realize the importance of lending a helping hand.
It is very likely that one of your actions will affect the people around you for the rest of their lives.
She knew that many of her classmates did not understand many things. In fact, she did not fully understand them either, but only had a partial understanding. However, she understood the general direction:
"Let me put it this way, Le Yan may be the fastest path to success for people like us."
"Really?"
"Absolutely true!"
not far away.
Le Yan was apologizing to several teachers.
After this week, he's going on a concert tour and will be absent from school for a few months.
It’s really embarrassing to say that his attendance performance has been very poor since the second semester of his freshman year.
Fortunately, these teachers were lenient with him and did not hold him back from the final exam.
Every time Le Yan went to school to ask for leave, the teachers expressed their understanding.
Not only does he not delay his attendance, but he also cares about him like an elder, which makes him fully realize the teacher's care for students.
And this concern reached its peak when Le Yan returned to school.
The counselor and physical education teacher approved Le Yan's leave without asking him what he was going to do, because their focus was on other things.
"I heard that you introduced several scripts to Bixia?" the dialogue teacher asked casually.
Le Yan was shocked at first.
The script recommended to Bi Xia was known to only Tian Ni and above in the superstar community, and outside the company, only a few of them who had a particularly good relationship with the company knew about it. How could the teachers in the school know about this?
Soon, he figured it out.
These teachers have been teaching for decades, and it is no exaggeration to say that they have students all over the world. In addition to being teachers, they also go out to film movies. Even the spouses and relatives of several teachers are working in the circle, so it is easy to understand why they are well-informed.
"I just introduced Bi Xia to a few directors." Le Yan said modestly.
Several teachers looked at each other, sending messages with their eyes.
They didn't speak, but kept exchanging glances, which frightened Le Yan. "What's wrong?"
No, if there is any problem, let’s work together to find a solution!
The physical education teacher put down his knife and fork, leaned his arms on the table, and seemed to be thinking about how to start:
"I heard from outside that it's easier to get projects approved and raise funds for directors who are on good terms with you. Is that true, Le Yan?"
The news that Le Yan introduced resources to Bi Xia spread in a small circle within the circle. Some people lamented the friendship between Le Yan and Bi Xia, and some people were surprised that Le Yan was so powerful that he could get actors into the crew. But in the eyes of the teachers who were good at dealing with people, the meaning of this news was different.
Many teachers also often introduce students to familiar directors.
Who doesn’t want the students they teach to succeed?
It is impossible that Deng Xuefeng is the only one who has a dream.
But 90% of the opportunities they introduced to students were wasted.
The reason for the stuck point is not that the director doesn't like it, but that the project didn't take shape in the end.
It may take four or five years for a movie or TV series to be prepared and released. Obtaining approval numbers, filming permits, funding, venues, etc. are all big issues. The turnover and replacement of actors is very normal. It is even normal for the project to suddenly disappear when it is being prepared.
According to their experience, no more than 20% of projects in the preparation stage can be successfully filmed.
But I heard that the two crews that Le Yan introduced to Bi Xia have recently obtained approval documents and applied for a considerable filming budget.
There are rumors outside that Le Yan contributed to this. Many people have heard about it and have come to the school.
The teachers just happened to catch Le Yan today. Tell us quickly, does he have anything to do with you?
Le Yan drank water strategically, pondered for a few seconds, and said half-truthfully:
“Some, but not much.”
This time he did not ask Tian Ni to approve more budget. It was Tian Ni who was too sensible and knew that Le Yan had put people in, so she took the initiative to help. Le Yan also found out about this afterwards.
But as Bi Xia said, funding alone is not enough to get the project off the ground, because there is still the above review.
With so many levels of review, any crew with average willpower would have given up long ago. The degree of torture is dozens or hundreds of times more than modifying the client's PPT.
Ge Man was worried about Bi Xia's future every day and was almost depressed. Deng Xuefeng always whispered in Le Yan's ear, so Le Yan put a little effort in this regard and used a few contacts in the station introduced to him by Ye Xinchun.
In this way, Bixia’s two projects were able to be implemented quickly.
Say it has something to do with Le Yan, he just found two people.
It has nothing to do with LeYan, but it is still somewhat related to him.
Forget it, it’s just a small matter, not worth mentioning!
Seeing that Le Yan did not refuse to be involved in this matter, the teachers could no longer hold back.
"Le Yan, if there are good opportunities, please think about the teachers too?"
"It's not just Deng Xuefeng who can act. Who among us is worse than him?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Teacher also wants to be on the same stage with you once!"
There are only a few weirdos like Deng Xuefeng. Most people are normal people who only care about money.
Who would want to teach in a school when you can make a lot of money?
The teachers originally wanted to be more restrained, because Le Yan was their student after all, and asking a student for favors would be a laughing stock if it got out!
But LeYan can even get the most difficult capital and approval documents
What does it matter whether they are students or not? Le Yan is now the great benefactor who can help these people to prosper!
How can I have the face to face such a noble person? Of course I have to kneel down and beg.
The teachers were showing off their talents with all their might when students from a distance gathered around them and started to speak in similar opening remarks as they did.
"Le Yan, if there is a good opportunity, please think of us?"
"It's not just Bixia who can act. I scored two points higher than Bixia in the final exam!"
"Yes, yes, yes. I also want to be on the same stage with you once. Look at my high kick, isn't it correct?"
Le Yan was almost torn apart by these people, and he swayed from side to side and said:
"Everyone has misunderstood! I don't have that much ability, and I can't help you. I'm just an actor, how can I possibly interfere with the fate of an actor?"
The scene was quiet for a second, and then became lively again.
"Then can you manage other professions? My father has been working as a lamplighter for thirty years and has a three-person team. Can you recommend some jobs to him?"
"Le Yan, my husband is also a director. He will come to pick me up later. Let me introduce you to each other."
"My girlfriend is very skillful with her hands. She can make all kinds of props. If she doesn't make props, she can do other things! Le Yan, please give me a hand!!"
In the following week, the door railing of Le Yan's class was almost trampled to pieces, and every day various people asked him for help with various reasons.
This scene reminded Le Yan of a TV series he had watched in his previous life - even the stray dogs in Qi Tongwei's village could be used as police dogs!
It’s okay if you ask him for help directly, but what Le Yan fears most is the kind of people who don’t say anything directly but try to show their kindness to you secretly.
"I'm already taken, stay away from me!"
Nowadays, gossip magazines are worse than human beings. They dare to write anything. When Le Yan left Kyoto to prepare for the concert, he almost ran away while crawling. It doesn't fit his identity as a big boss behind the scenes in the entertainment industry at all.
However, his identity as a big boss behind the scenes is of no use at all in front of a concert. LeYan is still a newcomer who has not experienced the baptism of a concert, groping forward everywhere, and living in fear every day.
Le Yan is no stranger to the stage, he has performed on stages of all sizes many times.
但演唱会的场地少则3万人,多则6、7万人他之前见识过最大的场子不过是跨年晚会时的1万,而且那个时候他只唱了3首歌。
For the next three months, he will have to sing for two hours in front of tens of thousands of people every week. Just thinking about it makes his legs go weak.
In order to ensure the smooth progress of the concert, the project leader this time is Zhang Yan, who is more familiar with the field of singers.
Zhang Yan temporarily left Li Yiran who was active abroad and flew back to China to fully support Le Yan.
"Sister Yan, you should go back. Ranran can't be short of people there. Ni Zhen and I can do it."
Le Yan wanted to send Zhang Yan back many times.
Although he is not familiar with the concert, this is our own territory after all, so nothing serious will happen.
Li Yiran is unfamiliar with the place in a foreign country and has to take every step carefully. Compared with her, my difficulties are nothing. You should go and help her!
"You stupid boy, don't you understand Yiran's character? If you don't settle down here, she won't be able to concentrate on anything she does." Zhang Yan lowered his head and carefully checked the audio equipment, "You have to get on the right track quickly, then she will be relieved!"
You think I haven't said the same thing?
Practice quickly!
Zhang Yan’s words put more pressure on Le Yan, and greater pressure leads to greater tension.
LeYan is a key figure in the entire team, and his nervousness affects the entire team.
Before the first concert started, the air pressure around everyone was so low that they didn’t even dare to breathe.
The biggest difficulty facing Le Yan is actually a psychological problem. As long as he overcomes this hurdle, other problems will be easily solved.
In order to build up his mental strength, Le Yan added rehearsal scenes and rehearsed on stage again and again, hoping that the rehearsal would give him a sense of security and make his nervousness disappear.
But his behavior made others more nervous.
Everyone thinks that Le Yan is keeping the strings too tight.
If the situation continues to develop like this, it is likely that he will collapse before the concert even starts.
What should I do? (End of this chapter)
