New Age Artists

Chapter 26: Uncomfortable Zhang Jingchu
"Tangtang, I'm at work. I've been too busy these past two days. It's just right that you can take a break this weekend. Don't worry about work yet. Wait until the movie is released in January. Hiss, it's okay. I kicked the table and hit my little toe."

Shen Santong has been very busy recently.

The ringback tone business team has expanded to more than 30 people. At this point in time, the ringback tone business is really profitable.

A movie network platform project team was set up, recruiting programmers, and hoping to create Douban.

The Douban domain name had already been registered, and he registered another name, Dongtian.

It’s inconvenient to set up a communication base for movie lovers as it’s always on Tieba.

I have to say that the scores for computer majors at that time were not as exaggerated as they are later.

The Internet bubble burst in 01, and Internet companies have only just recovered this year.

It fell again during the financial crisis in 08. Ten years later, the form of the cosmic machine slowly emerged.

"No, no, eat it yourself."

Shen Santong finished his meal and asked Zhang Jingchu to stay with him.

It's a courtesy to provide meals to people who come to discuss cooperation.

However, Zhang Jingchu is more lively in private.

He eats white porridge, wants to launch a surprise attack, and has a playful personality.

"Can Tang Yan give me the performance I gave?"

Zhang Jingchu rubbed her face, showing her ability to control her facial expressions, and her muscles felt a little sore.

She is very confident in her professional ability: "If you have a role, come find me. I can act very well."

"This is not good. Don't do this next time when you are on the phone."

"Hehe, am I better at acting than her? Am I better at business than her?"

Zhang Jingchu was not very convinced and held his breath.

She prepared for the play "Peacock" for a long time and put in a lot of sweat, but it has not been released yet.

I turned around and saw that Shen Santong's movie had not been released either.

But the momentum was huge.

Especially Tang Yan, she became really popular all of a sudden.

In the words of later generations, he ascended to heaven.

Shen Santong's own marketing of the cross-border superstar has caused countless controversies, but he has kept Tang Yan out of the storm and reaped all the benefits.

In comparison, Zhang Jingchu herself is truly a clown.

The thought of Gu Changwei's appearance made me feel sick.

"Peacock" has not been released yet, but the controversy with Gu Changwei has caused a lot of controversy and his public image is very bad.

If it was before she came into contact with "Supermarket", Zhang Jingchu wouldn't care.

This circle is like this, if you want to be famous you have to stand out, otherwise you won’t have any chance.

The trend from Hong Kong and Taiwan is here, people laugh at poverty but not at prostitution, the key is to be famous and get a role in a movie.

In order to earn a living, she took on some odd roles, occasionally served as assistant director for her classmates' films, and took on commercials. She was fed up with this kind of life.

But Shen Santong taught her a lesson: there are no secrets in the circle.

In the crew of "Crazy Supermarket", Tang Yan took the initiative to visit.

Shen Santong taught the other party a lesson, and the news spread in the industry.

If you want to find out, you can.

At least it shows that Tang Yan didn't pay anything to be in this drama.

If you have not seen the light, you can still endure the darkness.

But how could Zhang Jingchu be willing to miss out on such a bright future?

The movie hasn't been released yet, but Tang Yan has already gained such fame, and it's a very good and positive fame.

Zhang Jingchu has figured it out by now.

The reason why Shen Santong didn't use her in this play might be due to her reputation problem.

From the second trailer of "Crazy Supermarket", we can see that the drama between Shen Santong and Tang Yan is the kind of love that ends up being together.

The song "Dimples" is a super sweet love song.

Zhang Jingchu herself knew very well that with her current reputation, once she stood next to Shen Santong, others would definitely compare her with Gu Changwei, the guy with the dead eyes, which would completely ruin her screen image.

The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt. As I said, there are no secrets in the circle.

The news of Shen Santong and Hua Yi's falling out had already spread.

Hua Yi wanted his movie to pave the way for "A World Without Thieves" and to warm up Wang Baoqiang first.

Her agency, Rong Xinda, is already in the Beijing circle and can get more authentic information.

It wasn't the kind of fight that was rumored by the outside world, but it is certain that Shen Santong and Wang Zhonglei slammed the table at the dinner table.

Then, there was another rumor in the circle that the big and small kings bowed their heads.

There is nothing exaggerated about this news, but it is vague.

There is no meeting place or people.

The more this happened, the more Zhang Jingchu realized that it was most likely true.

And the circle is very high-level, the kind that celebrities can’t enter.

Various emotions have been fermenting repeatedly these days.

In the end, she could only accept this reality. It didn't matter whether she and Gu Changwei were real or not.

With such a public image, even the fake ones are real.

I regret it when I think about it.

If Shen Santong wasn't around, she would definitely find a way to catch Gu Changwei, but with Shen Santong, she regretted it very much.

After much thought, all I can do is take advantage of my own strengths.

Maintain a relationship with Shen Santong.

A new generation director, a director who can photograph female stars beautifully, no female star can respect herself.

"If you have any projects, be sure to find me."

Zhang Jingchu was very direct. She shook her hair and gestured: "Call me anytime if you need anything."

The eyes lingered for a moment at the spot where the brand was revealed.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, and the flowing emotions were just right.

Her acting skills are really great, definitely better than Tang Yan.

Teacher Zhang Jingchu is different from ordinary girls.

When she was fifteen, her family wanted her to work, but she was determined to study.

When I was sixteen or seventeen, I hid it from my family and said I was working, but in fact I went to study in BJ and was admitted to the directing department of the Central Academy of Drama.

At the age of 19, I planned to work part-time to earn tuition while preparing for the postgraduate entrance examination. Last year, I starred in Gu Changwei's play "Peacock".

Gu Changwei is Zhang Yimou's photographer and the husband of Aunt Jiang Wenli, a girl, and has extensive connections in the circle.

Shen Santong combined some memories of his previous life, and Teacher Zhang Jingchu later caused a sensation, not only with Gu Changwei, but also with other directors.

Rumor has it that he was banned by the directors’ wives and later plunged into the Hong Kong circle.

You can't do whatever you want with a girl like this. If you don't have the right chips, it will be very troublesome.

"Tangtang, what do you want to eat for lunch?"

"I'm fine. I just finished my work. Can't I just check on you for a bit?"

"If the media interviews you, don't rush to accept it. Communicate with the executive agent assigned to you by the company. She is a veteran in the industry and has worked for Wang Jinghua before. Of course, I will make decisions for you on important matters."

"You can find a personal assistant yourself. The company will pay for it. See if there are any suitable relatives. If not, the company will arrange one for you. Don't worry."

"Good boy, listen carefully in class. The more you get angry, the more you need to keep a calm mind. The future is long. Getting along well with teachers and classmates will help you walk more steadily."

"There are so many talented people among my fans of songs and books?"

Shen Santong showed concern for Tang Yan and told her he was really busy.

We need to focus on the ringback tone business, the Dongtian (Douban) project, and also build up the public relations department.

After the baptism of battle, Shen Santong fans learned one thing.

Instead of arguing with others, it’s better to have a melee.

Add fuel to the fire.

While pretending to be a fan of Faye Wong, she scolded Xie Tingfeng for being a loser and taking the blame for someone else.

On the other hand, someone pretended to be a fan of Xie Tingfeng and called Faye Wong an old woman. Xie Tingfeng was right to dump her.
