Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 196 Singer cashback, casting begins, invitation to ice and snow (please subscribe, please vote)

A+ is two hundred times?
Tang Wen felt refreshed from head to toe, as if he had drunk a glass of cold beer on a hot day.

It turns out that the three achievements combined and appearing at once can achieve an A+ rating!
Looking back at it carefully, I found it is not that simple.

[Successful debut] counts as one item.

It means that this newcomer has gained popularity.

Some people ask, isn’t debuting just about acting in a play or releasing a song?
How could it fail?
It exists in the system and also in reality.

That is, it didn't make any splash at all, it was a complete failure, and not even the name was remembered.

For example, Ms. Jia Jingwen actually released a music album.

Then, I focused on acting.

Second, [Promotion (Newcomer → Third-tier singer)]

He skipped the level of "famous singer" and directly became a third-tier singer.

Upgraded two levels in a row.

3. [Album influence, music industry foothold]

It is easier to understand that Jane Zhang has her own masterpiece.

Even if her future works fail to become popular, she can still make a living for another 10 to 20 years by relying on the hit songs written by Tang Wen for her.

If you can get a job in a cultural troupe, you can live longer.

[Cashback = (lyrics and music fee + training fee + operating fee + production fee...) x 200 = 1 million (￥)]

Tang Wen was stunned for two seconds, blinked, made sure he was not mistaken, and took a deep breath.

In the river!

It is quite reasonable to earn 1 million after sleeping.

And that’s only half of it!
Tang Wen has trained more than just Zhang Jingying.

There is also an even more popular one named Wang Xinling!

That’s right, in his heart, Wang Xinling is more popular than Zhang Liangying.

When I first debuted, maybe it was about the same.

But don’t be too anxious, wait until those born in the 70s and 80s become bosses.

Let Miss Cyndi stand on the stage and shout, "Where is my Honey?"

You will immediately know who is more popular!

Who will be popular longer?
Wang Xinling’s cashback is here too.

Tang Wen took a quick look and raised his eyebrows:

[You spent time and energy to support artist Wang Xinling x1]

【Wang Xinling's successful debut】

【Wang Xinling rises to fame (newcomer → third-tier singer)】

[The album has achieved great influence, and Wang Xinling has initially established herself in the music industry]

So far, it's basically the same.

The songs Tang Wen prepared for the two of them were unbiased, with three classics for each of them.

That is, three representative works.

Logically speaking, the impact produced is basically the same.

But people are different after all.

[Wang Xinling will be awarded the title of "Sweetheart Leader" due to her stage charm; title achievement level: Primary]

One more title!
Sweetheart leader.

This was her nickname in her previous life, or her stage positioning.

Even if young people have not listened to her songs, they have basically heard of this title.

Based on his experience from his previous life, Tang Wen originally intended to train her in this direction.

Well, it doesn’t really take much thought.

Just copy out Wang Xinling's songs and let her sing them.

Tang Wen was even more surprised by the cashback multiple.

[Evaluation: A+, Cashback multiple: 300 times, Experience gained: 3000, Potential: 3.0]

They are both A+ rated, why are the multiples different?
System reply:

[A+ level cashback multiples are not fixed (110-300)]

It turned out to be the case.

[Cashback = (lyrics and music fee + training fee + operating fee + production fee...) x 300 = 1.5 million (￥)]

2.5 billion!
Tang Wen leaned comfortably on the Mercedes-Benz aviation-grade seat, his eyes drifting out the window.

The sky outside is bluer, and even the noisy cicadas' calls are so pleasant to the ears!
2.5 million, how to spend it?

Build a few more courtyard houses?
But there are too many yards and they are too eye-catching.

Get another piece of land to build a building?

Or should we directly invest in real estate companies, use these assets as collateral for mortgage loans, and leverage more funds?
In 2002, it would be a good idea to invest in real estate.

How many times has the leverage of a certain company increased?

39 billion to 2.4 trillion, almost 615 times.

Tang Wen touched his neck and felt a little itchy: Well, I must not increase my debt so much, I must control my debt ratio.

Hire a professional team to do it.

Of course, we need someone to watch over it.

How about transferring my second sister to another school?

Let her study business administration or something so that she can lead a team to audit various companies.

Or the woman around you?

After thinking about it, Tang Wen shook his head.

They cannot be allowed to control the economy.

The experiences of Brother Chenglong’s friends always serve as a warning to Tang Wen that we must learn from past experiences.

Tang Wen picked up the phone and made an appointment for a dinner three days later. The main guests were the chief secretary of the CCTV leader, the production director, and Mr. Han Sanye.

It’s not that he doesn’t want to invite the CCTV leaders, it’s that the leaders are too busy.

If you want to meet a leader at this level, you must be able to take the initiative to report your work.

The talent show "Avenue of Stars" jointly produced by Blue Star Entertainment and CCTV

It is under preparation and the main team is composed of staff from CCTV.

Tang Wen was responsible for paying the money, and seemed like he was being taken advantage of, but in fact, that was not the case.

Not to mention the huge profits that will be made from the future success of the show.

Currently, CCTV is preparing several TV dramas and movies, including "The Miraculous Doctor Xilaile" and "Romantic Things", and Tang Wen has been invited to collaborate with them.

How could anyone else have this ability?

What's more, he also sent a group of people to follow and learn.

Programs like "Avenue of Stars", which are nationwide auditions, are particularly challenging.

By following this type of project, Blue Star Entertainment’s variety show production team was cultivated.

Tang Wen has a lot of variety show projects in his mind, and there will be plenty of opportunities to make money and promote people in the future.

Dinner three days later.

The dining location is in a courtyard house in Tangwen Haidian.

The yard was bought half a year ago.

After half a year of renovation, ventilation is required.

Now he has become Tang Wen’s private chef.

Just like the company cafeteria, several apprentices of famous chefs were invited to take charge.

He is the kind of disciple who kowtows to his master in all seriousness.

Through this relationship, we were able to invite several state banquet chefs.

As for why not just invite the state banquet chef.

It's very simple, you can't get it.

There are too few chefs for state banquets in the capital, and too many distinguished guests.

Another thing is that Tang Wen doesn’t entertain important guests every day. When needed, it is enough to invite them to come and cook a meal.

Arrived at the company.

Tang Wen asked Xia Tian: "How is the casting preparation for The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber going?"

"I've received a lot of resumes, and all the major agents and agencies in the industry have called. I can start auditioning anytime."

"Tomorrow," Tang Wen said casually.

The time is a bit rushed.

But who can blame Director Tang for his precious energy?

Xia Tian had no objection, as she understood how much influence it would have if her boss auditioned in person.

"I'll notify the two directors."

"it is good."

The two directors, one is called Yang Tao, who started working in 78 and has directed a total of to plays, movies and TV series.

He has won many awards and is a very hard-working person.

Many film and television works have been shot in such a harsh environment as the snowy plateau.

The other is Lai Shuiqing, a Hong Kong director.

The reason why we chose him was because he had previously filmed the Ma Jingtao version of "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber".

Later, he also filmed Richie Jen's versions of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and "Swordsman".

Both directors are experienced, not young anymore, and in average health.

Don't worry that the director will support a certain actress.

Tang Wen spent the money and they knew who the boss was.

Blue Star Entertainment auditions must be open and fair.

Apart from Director Tang, no one else can decide on the female role!

nobody!
Tang Wen instructed Xia Tian again: "Give a heads-up to Renren.com and have the programmers work overtime to organize a role vote. When the final list of auditions comes out, let everyone vote for the female lead and female supporting actress. Yes, and the male lead and male supporting actor."

Although supporting male celebrities will not bring any cash back, it can expand the influence of Renren.com.

After all, you can't rely on men when it comes to chasing stars.

Depends on the young girl.

They really pursue some stars.

Unlike men, if you are lucky, you can fall in love with eight young ladies when you go out to the mall and have a meal.

Come up with ten names for your children.

Xia Tian didn’t understand the Internet, so he asked, “What if an unsuitable female celebrity gets too many votes?”

Tang Wen: "Wait until we finalize the list before voting online."

Xia Tian nodded and understood: unsuitable female stars would not have any chance of being voted for at all.

There is no need to ask who is suitable for what role.

Director Tang must have the final say.

As for voting, it is just a process to expand influence.

noon.

Blue Star Entertainment held a press conference and announced that casting for “The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber” will begin tomorrow.

Tang Wen's secretary Xia Tian personally announced that "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" is also in preparation.

The actors who participated in the audition this time may become the reserve actors of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils".

It sounds disrespectful.

But it depends on who is the crew.

Director Tang Wen personally interviewed me, that’s a huge respect!

Everyone in the circle knows that Director Tang is lustful. Ahem, Director Tang particularly appreciates beautiful things.

If Tang Wen takes a fancy to me and signs me to Blue Star Entertainment, wouldn't I be able to rise to prominence immediately?
If you like it, and then try acting at night, wouldn't it be a quick success?
There are many similar examples in the entertainment industry.

Many people heard the news and took action.

The phones of the slightly powerful management of Blue Star Entertainment started to ring non-stop.

However, everyone has high salaries, good treatment, and is respected in the circle, so they all know what's going on.

Director Tang does not interfere with the crew, so everyone can help fight for some supporting roles and try their best.

But Director Tang was personally watching the interview, and no one would make even a single promise to anyone.

Not to mention sleeping with me, even paying me is not an option.

The more powerful people at the top of the circle called Tang Wen.

"Sister Hua, dinner tonight? Sure, I'll arrange it. I'm bringing a friend with me."

Wang Jinhua's reputation as the top agent is becoming more and more famous.

Tang Wen has many celebrities under his command, and he can use them all.

I just hung up the phone here.

Jia Jingwen called from the other end, her tone full of resentment.

Last night, while having dinner and drinking, she told Tang Wen about her desire to participate in "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber"

Tang Wen did not respond at the time, only saying that he would consider it.

As a result, she learned about the casting news today, and she heard it from someone else.

In fact, she didn't know that in Tang Wen's heart, she was the only choice for "Zhao Min".

Originally Fan Bingbing was also suitable, but Zhou Zhiruo decided on Gao Yuanyuan.

They met on the set, and within a few days, they started fighting.

As for other female stars, I can only say that there are not many who can compare with Da Meiyuan in costume dramas.

After much thought, Jia Jingwen is still the most suitable one.

Drop drop drop.

Another call came in.

Tang Wen didn't talk much with Jia Jingwen: "I have a dinner party tonight, you go with me."

"Okay!" Jia Jingwen agreed straightforwardly.

Female celebrities who had Tang Wen's contact information sent messages expressing their intention to audition.

Li Shuangbing, Jiang Qinqin, Zhang Ziyi...

The agency in Taiwan would certainly not miss this opportunity.

Someone passed a message to Tang Wen through the secretary of China Film Group, saying that as long as he could play a major role, any conditions could be negotiated.

By the way, I sent over the cast list.

[Female stars: Xiao Qiang, Lin Xilei, Lin Xinru, Big S...]

Xiao Qiang is still the most beautiful woman in Taiwan.

Lin Xinru is very popular.

Big S just became famous.

Tang Wen can use any of these actresses he likes.

As for the conditions, everything is negotiable.

At this point, Lin, the chief secretary of China Film Group, said maliciously, "It's hinted over there. It all depends on what Mr. Tang wants. Each of these female stars has admired you for a long time."

Tang Wen smiled. These girls are beautiful, but not as good as Jia Jingwen, the first generation goddess of Hupu.

Come to think of it, Jia Jingwen's name was not on the list.

No wonder you came directly to me.

"Brother Lin, if there is someone you like, we will agree to it. If not, forget it."

Secretary Lin laughed heartily: "Brother, don't you think about it? Would I dare to make this mistake?"

In addition to female stars, there are also male stars.

【Wu Qilong, Su Youpeng, Jerry Yan, Peter Ho...】

After reading both lists, Tang Wen realized that this was not the effort of a single Taiwanese company, but rather the combined efforts of several companies.

Secretary Lin saw that Tang Wen didn't say anything and sighed, "Do you know your own status? You can choose any popular artist in Taiwan."

Even if Su Youpeng is on the list.

Tang Wen didn't promise anything, just told them to come for an audition when they are free.

Not many people asked about it in Hong Kong.

Only Huo Wenxi asked a question on behalf of Xie Tingfeng.

After Tang Wen hinted that there was little hope, she did not persist.

They just said that they would let the twins come for an audition to make their presence felt.

There are undercurrents in the entertainment industry.

Media reporters went everywhere to interview all the actors they could.

Ask them if they would like to audition.

Is there any favorite role you want to pursue?

Among the generation of stars at the beginning of the millennium, there are not many with low emotional intelligence.

Even if there was, they knew that Tang Wen could not be offended.

Even if most actors don't want to be associated with the Yitian crew, at best they would say "I have a film contract, it's a pity."

More actors and artists expressed their willingness to participate.

More than half of them said they would participate in the audition.

Jin Yong's dramas are not like other TV dramas.

The national popularity is very high.

The popular Li Yapeng is the best example.

For second- and third-tier actors, this is an opportunity they have been longing for.

It is impossible for a first-tier star to play a supporting role, but in China, except for older middle-aged actors such as Chen Daoming, Chen Baoguo and others, no other young actors dare to say that they are firmly in the first-tier.

Since the protagonist Zhang Wuji can audition, why not give it a try?

Chen Kun, Lu Yi, Huang Xiaoming, Hu Bing...

These popular stars expressed their readiness to audition for the role of Zhang Wuji.

What is surprising is that Zhou Xun and Li Yapeng are the two protagonists of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

In an interview, he openly expressed his desire to star in "The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber".

The media reporters were excited and surprised.

It feels like big news is coming.

You know, Zhang Da Huzi, the producer of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, got the filming rights of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber when Tang Wen got the rights.

He has criticized Tang Wen and Jin Yong in public.

Now his male and female protagonists have openly "rebelled" and supported the casting of "The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber".

Reporters flocked to interview him.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Da Huzi was not angry at all. After a few words.

They started talking about "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and said that this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is definitely the most restored and best-made of all Jin Yong's dramas!
No one has ever been comparable to it before.

No one will be able to compare to us in the next ten years!
The reporters then realized that after all the twists and turns, Zhang Jizhong was trying to attract attention for his "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

At night, in Tang Wen’s private kitchen in the courtyard.

Wang Jinhua came with sisters Li Bingqiao and Li Xing.

Jia Jingwen stayed with Tang Wen.

In order to play the role of Sai Xi Shi in "The Divine Doctor Xilaile", Li Bingqiao gained a little weight and looked more charming.

The younger sister Li Xing is not as pretty as her elder sister, but she is also a beauty with a heroic look.

Wang Jinhua's purpose of coming here is very simple, which is to pave the way for her artists.

A large number of artists under her are not signed with Huayi Brothers, but with her personally.

This led to Huayi Brothers not wanting to provide any resources at all.

In the plays invested by Huayi, Wang Jinhua’s artists couldn’t even get roles.

When it comes to competition, we are not as good as outsiders.

She wanted to see if she could get on board the "Yitian" train.

During the meal, Jia Jingwen and Li Bingqiao sat on each side of Tang Wen.

One person picks up the food and pours the wine.

One peeled shrimp and added tea.

The two people's eyes met in the air from time to time.

Although he was smiling, his expression was cold.

They are both beautiful actresses and are also competitors.

It would be strange if they liked each other.

During the meal, Wang Jinhua drank a lot, fully expressing her sincerity.

Li Bingqiao was very considerate throughout the whole process. Apart from having a few drinks with Jia Jingwen, he was always taking care of Tang Wen.

Tang Wen didn't promise anything and the party ended before eleven o'clock.

The Li sisters accompanied Sister Hua into the car, and Li Xing asked, "Did we fail to achieve our goal today?"

Wang Jinhua respected this disciple and tried to hold back the drunkenness as she reminded him, "You can't say that."

"Then my sister can play the leading role in The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber?"

"It's difficult, but Director Tang's eating with us is an attitude."

Li Xing suddenly realized: "I don't know how many people want to meet Director Tang right now, but he only agreed to meet us."

Moreover, Tang Wen treated us to a meal and brought a woman along.

If I don't bring it, my sister will have a chance.

So him bringing a woman is a rejection?
In other words, my sister probably won't have the chance to play the two main roles in this drama.

Li Xing was unwilling to give in.

Do you want to add a code?
After taking a look at the lonely Li Bingluo, she took out her cell phone...

hum.

SMS reminder.

In the exclusive lounge of the Siheyuan private kitchen.

Tang Wen pinched Jia Jingwen's face and picked up the phone on the table.

Li Xing's text message:
"Director Tang, listening to you talk tonight, I was deeply touched...

Our home is outside the Great Wall, and the ice and snow world there is particularly beautiful.

You are always welcome to come and play!"

"grass!"

Tang Wen expressed his sigh with one word.
