Chapter 347: Real horror story, the star team revisits the past (asking for monthly tickets)
Jinli and Chen Lin both replied to Qi Guan Mingzhu's message at the same time.

They asked her if she had a conflict with the company, whether it could be mediated, and whether she needed their help.

Qi Guan Mingzhu saw it and felt a little moved.

It is easy to add icing on the cake, but difficult to give charcoal in the snow.

Every star who changes jobs to a new company will suffer for several years. Unless they are really incompatible with the company to a certain extent, no star with a little fame will choose to change jobs.

Celebrities know a lot of dirty stuff about entertainment companies, and companies also know a lot of private stuff about celebrities, and even control many things about their work that even celebrities don’t know about.

Tell a horror real story.

A few years ago, a celebrity named S wanted to terminate his contract with the company. The company refused to let him go, but the celebrity still announced the termination of his contract with the company on the Internet. As a result, the company turned around and accused the celebrity of tax evasion.

The star terminated his contract, but his team did not follow him to change jobs. They dug out all the notices that the star participated in many years ago, indicating that the accounting was not transparent at the time and the star paid less than a lot of taxes.

Even the artist himself doesn’t know about this, only the team knows.

At the time, the artist could only issue a statement to clarify that the company’s accounts were unclear, that he himself did not know about those things, and that he would actively cooperate with the investigation.

But only they know what the truth is.

In the days when the supervision was not strict enough, perhaps celebrities would pay less tax, but once the supervision was strict, they would definitely actively cooperate in paying the back taxes.

However, they only cooperate in making up the payments during the period of strict management. Many celebrities choose to turn a blind eye to the money they had embezzled in the past.

After all, if you can't be strict until ten years later, then you should be a good person for the next ten years.

It's impossible that if you have to pay the taxes ten years later, your company will still be able to handle the taxes you didn't pay ten years ago, right?

It may not be possible to trace the transaction flow because the information is too much and too confusing.

In fact, many celebrities privately know that their accounts in previous years were not right, but they only thought about being transparent during the period when they were strict, and never thought about digging up those opaque accounts from a few years ago.

This is something that everyone knows.

But if the star has a conflict with the team, the team will bring up old issues in no time, and the star can only swallow the bitter fruit of his past mistakes.

If you want people to not know, unless you do it yourself!
Let me tell you another horror real-life story.

A few months ago, a celebrity named J posted a message saying that his labor contract with the company had expired and he would not renew it, thus automatically terminating the contract with the company.

But then the company said that star J had signed another supplementary agreement with the company, extending the contract for another five years.

Even the celebrity named J didn’t know about this and posted a message saying that he had never signed it.

The star may really not know that he has signed this contract, or he signed it at the same time as signing another contract and did not receive real information from the company.

Now you want to terminate the contract?

Okay, then the previous methods can be used.

There shouldn’t be too many cases where stars sign contracts without even knowing about them.

Don’t be fooled by the halos of celebrities. They are admired and watched by millions of people. They also have strong public opinion capabilities. When they reflect a real problem, it will attract attention from many parties.

This power is really strong.

It is so powerful that it can help people rescue the deceived people from fraud dens in foreign countries after overcoming many difficulties. Foreign countries attach great importance to it and follow up on the report on it every day.

But those who stir up trouble are sometimes really weak.

No matter how capable you are, you can't resist the team that deceives you, signs a contract you don't even know about, and stabs you in the back when you have no time to react.

To put it bluntly, nothing can defeat capital.

If Qi Guan Mingzhu hadn't had such a bad relationship with Century Entertainment, she would never have gone to the point of terminating the contract.

I am afraid that the above-mentioned problems will occur. If they become a problem, both the artist and the company will lose face.

Only a small number of stars are able to peacefully terminate their contracts with the company; most start with a bang but end in tragedy.

Jinli saw Qi Guan Mingzhu's reply and simply called her and asked bluntly:

"Are you interested in my company? If you have any idea, I will give you my agent's business card."

Qi Guan Mingzhu hesitated: "Yes, but wouldn't it be too much trouble for your agent? Hasn't she already brought you and Mengmeng?"

Jinli smiled gently: "To be honest, who would complain about having too much money?"

Qi Guan Mingzhu was also happy, "Okay, I'll talk to her later."

On the other side, Marchtian has returned to the villa.

Qi Guan Mingzhu and Chen Lin made an appointment to play games together. The more nervous she was, the more she needed some means to relieve the tension and pressure.

Playing games and reading comics are her ways to relieve stress.

She didn't explicitly tell Chen Lin that she wanted to change jobs, but Zhang Guang noticed something with his keen insight.

When Zhang Guang was driving back to his residence, he received the investigation and analysis sent by the team.

The team members said excitedly: "According to the prediction of the big data psychology model, the probability of Qi Guan Mingzhu wanting to terminate the contract is 75%! Brother Guang, how about we poach him now?"

Zhang Guang's heart beat faster and he was a little surprised.

He repeatedly confirmed: "Are you sure the chance is really that high?"

The team member said, "Sure. In fact, we have done several analyses based on their recent actions. 75% job hopping rate is still the lowest. The data generally gives 75%-80%!"

Zhang Guang's eyelids twitched slightly.

Wow, the probability of job hopping is so high, what are you waiting for, get in touch and dig them up now!

Qi Guan Mingzhu, who had stirred the hearts of many people, turned off his phone after playing three games with Chen Lin.

She needs to rest well and think carefully tonight.

Jinli received Qi Guan Mingzhu's message again at noon the next day.

She was reading the script that Sister Fang brought her early in the morning.

This script was written by a well-known screenwriter in the industry, and the director has been confirmed to be Chu Chenliang.

The script has been revised many times. Although the one Jinli is reading now is not the final version, it is almost the same.

Chu Chenliang's assistant said that the roles of each character have been almost fixed, and any further changes will only be in the details, and the general character image will not change.

Jinli quickly finished reading the script.

The scripts, descriptions and scenes of commercial films are relatively straightforward, and everything is done to the best of its ability.

Unlike art films, many lines are very profound and require further thinking.

After reading the script, Jinli felt that this was a very standard popcorn movie, a pure cool story mode. Each character image is actually quite simple.

Evil is the ultimate evil. Good people will also turn evil when faced with a life-and-death crisis. If they do not turn evil, then they will soon die. It is an irony that "good people do not live long, but evil deeds will last for thousands of years."

But only the protagonists have always adhered to justice in their hearts, and at the same time they have been constantly recruiting companions. There are also some good people who look like villains, and some people who continue to become better because of their families...

Jinli flipped through the script. Judging from the characters' personalities, it was really too ordinary. There was nothing particularly original about it. It was just a standard template.

Whether it is the good guys or the bad guys, there is no difference between them and previous commercial films.

If you want to shock the audience, you can only start with the actors themselves.

We have to find some veteran actors who can express extreme emotions, so that people will feel their scalp tingling at the first sight.

Overall, this drama is a big-budget special effects drama. The story takes place in a country where a virus leaks and everyone's genes mutate.

Some people gained super powers as a result, but some people turned into zombies.

The subject matter is a very common doomsday theme, and the story template is also a very common template. When watching this kind of drama, people pay more attention to the special effects rather than the plot.

It is said that this movie is preparing to hit the Spring Festival period, which is a good choice.

During the Chinese New Year, people either watch a comedy or a special effects blockbuster. Who would go out of their way to watch a tragedy or a boring art film?

The role that Jinli is interviewing for in this drama is not the female lead, but a gentle and kind female second lead. The female second lead will turn evil at the end because of the death of her lover. This is the most challenging part of this role in the whole drama.

Sui Lingfang has read the script and thinks she can take the role.

When I handed the script to her in the morning, I discussed with her why Director Chu chose her to be the second female lead instead of directly deciding on the first female lead.

Sui Lingfang admitted: "You are still too inexperienced in the film and television industry, especially in the field of film.

"Dream Builders", your only movie, became a hit as soon as it was released, and also broke the box office record for movies directed by Director Zhong.

A lot of people think you got lucky and that this success can’t be replicated, so they don’t know how you’ll perform in the second movie.”

She thought for a moment and added, “Also, although I think you have great acting skills, in the eyes of big directors, they may not think your acting skills are safe enough.

The actress who plays the leading female role is a first-line female artist who has been filming movies for nearly 20 years and is also a recognized veteran actor.

The female lead has a lot of action scenes in the script, and you are physically weak, so Director Chu would prefer to give you the second female lead, who has a good image, fewer action scenes, and focuses on showing the character's inner emotions."

Jinli nodded: "Sister Fang, you don't need to say more, I understand.

I have never been proud of the achievements of "Dream Builders". If someone asks me to make a similar film now, I cannot guarantee that I can achieve the same success.

The fact that this film became such a big hit was really unexpected, and I understand why they all think I was lucky.”

At this point, she paused and said calmly, "But I won't underestimate myself, because luck is also a kind of strength."

Sui Lingfang smiled and said, "I just think it's a pity that you still have to go for an interview to compete for this role. It would be great if you could be chosen right away."

Jinli said solemnly: "If Director Chu recognizes my ability, the interview is just a formality. No matter what, I will do my best."

Not knowing what she was thinking of, she continued, “By the way, Xu Wenwen recommended a script to me before. After reading it, she felt it was good and asked the director to send us a copy.

I don’t know if you have read it, can you tell me the reason for your refusal? "

Sui Lingfang immediately asked Jinli the name of the script. Jinli didn't know, so she sent a message to Xu Wenwen, and then saw the message from Qi Guan Mingzhu.

While she was replying to Sister Fang, she was chatting with Zhenzhu.

Zhenzhu: [Jinli, I want to know more about your company. Are you free to have lunch with me at noon, just the two of us?]
Jinli: [Of course, we haven't eaten spicy hotpot for a long time, how about trying it? ]
Pearl: [I'm fine, but how's your stomach?]
Jinli: [It's no big deal, don't worry]
At this time, Xu Wenwen also sent the title of the script -

My life of mediocrity!
Jinli raised her eyebrows. This name... I don't know why, but just by looking at it, I feel that it is full of Fanxue (Versailles literature).

She gave her name to Sister Fang.

Sui Lingfang checked and shook her head, "I didn't find this name in the email address for rejected manuscripts. The team probably hasn't seen it yet. I'll check it for you this afternoon."

Jinli has been concentrating on studying these days. It's not that Sui Lingfang doesn't want to urge Jinli to hurry up and film, or to take more notices, but it's not easy to urge her, and she doesn't know from what angle to urge her.

Now that Jinli suddenly became interested in filming, she would try her best to get Jinli to take on the next script.

If for no other reason, just to avoid a vacancy next year.
-
same moment.

Fang Fei's magazine department finally finalized the plan for the magazine shoot and submitted it to Dai Xueling's secretary assistant.

I'm afraid no one in the magazine department knew that only half an hour later, this plan was already on President Dai's desk.

Dai Xueling picked it up and flipped through it.

The latest shooting plan is completely based on Jinli's personal image and charm, and is divided into three perspectives:

[I can't act], [I can't sing], [I'm pretentious].

Jinli photographed these three "rumor-based" themes, using an ironic form to create images that are completely different from the proactive ones.

You say I can't act, so I will act well - I will be the heroine of a movie with a box office of 16 billion yuan.

You say I can't sing, so I will sing a good song - I can sing and dance the whole time without going out of tune for you to see.

You say I'm pretentious, so I'll show you my hard work and my ability to film in the scorching heat.

Criticizing the rumors one by one and showing the true self, this is Fang Fei's attitude and also Jin Li's attitude.

Dai Xueling nodded with satisfaction, feeling that the magazine finally looked somewhat presentable.

This magazine is to be compared with Huayun, which is a professional magazine manufacturer and has much stronger sales channels than them.

If you want to surpass Huayun, you must start with celebrities because celebrities have traffic.

Once the huge traffic is monetized through the purchase of magazines, it will explode with astonishing purchasing power.

That's why she said that the magazine department should highlight Jinli's personal characteristics instead of diluting her into a model who can only be a clothes hanger.

The more obvious and controversial the personal style is, the better it will sell.

Dai Xueling nodded and said, "Let's follow this plan and shoot as soon as possible. I want the magazine to be online in mid-October."

The secretary calculated the time. It was already late September. It would take time to typeset and print the magazine. Moreover, a magazine could not be supported by Jinli's photos alone. Fangfei had to choose other stars to shoot.

From this perspective, time is very tight.

The secretary looked stern and said, "I'll tell them now."

Jinli, who was cared about by Fangfei Magazine, met Qi Guan Mingzhu in a private hot pot restaurant at noon.

The Chinese New Year is coming at the end of the month. I don't know if you have time to watch it. Please give me a monthly ticket first~
