Rebirth 2011

Chapter 394

"Brother Mingli, sister Xiaoyu."

Walking into Tengshu Bar, feeling that the room was well heated, Xu Renshan took off his coat, walked to a booth, and greeted Shangguan Mingli with a smile.

Today's bar business is good, and [-]% of the seats are occupied in the afternoon.

Shangguan Mingli and Zong Xiaoyu were sitting on the same side. Xu Renshan also saw Shangguan Mingxin, Shangguan Mingyi and a few young people of the same age drinking and chatting there, but he did not see Wang Pan who had been to the bar together last time.

"Xiaoshan, sit down, sister, you can do whatever you want."

Smiling and asking Xu Renshan to sit down, Shangguan Mingli was not polite to his elder sister, nor did he hide his relationship with his confidante in front of her.

"You, a cadre, appearing in a bar, are you not afraid of bad influence?"

Glancing at the charming Zong Xiaoyu next to her brother, Shangguan Mingyan did not mention the upcoming engagement ceremony between her brother and Miss Yu, but her identity.

Years ago, Shangguan Mingli entered another level and became the youngest rising star among his peers.

With his current age and qualifications, if he is released, he might be the youngest number one in the county, or a prefecture-level city committee member.

"It's Chinese New Year, I'm still on vacation, who can say anything."

As if not aware of the strangeness in his sister's eyes, Shangguan Mingli replied calmly.

The marriage arranged by the family is one thing, and the confidante he likes is another. He didn't hide it from his brothers and sisters in the family, but he didn't confess it to his elders.

Of course, as a responsible man, when Shangguan Mingli and Zong Xiaoyu first got together, he stated his family background and future, and it is unlikely that the two will enter the palace of marriage.

If he wants to go further, his marriage will definitely not be decided by himself, but Shangguan Mingli still has a good impression of the well-educated Miss Yu family, so it cannot be regarded as an arranged marriage.

"Sister Xiaoyu, how is the business in the bar recently?"

Listening to the words of the Shangguan siblings with a sharp edge, Xu Renshan, who pretended not to know, asked about the hostess of the bar.

Today, Zong Xiaoyu is wearing a light blue lace dress. Her figure is much more prominent than ordinary girls, and she has an elegant demeanor. Perhaps it is because of running a bar, she is calm and charming, but she is in harmony with Shangguan who has a good figure. Big sister, complement each other.

"Thanks to Brother Xu, after our bar has appeared in the TV series "Star" several times, the business has been very good. During holidays, we have to reserve seats one day in advance."

Zong Xiaoyu, who was a little nervous facing the eldest sister Shangguan, was relieved to hear this handsome young man talking about other topics, and a smile appeared on his face.

Previously, the business of Tengshu Bar was a bit deserted. Apart from maintaining normal bar operating expenses, there was no balance at all.

In November last year, the hit drama "Star" took several scenes here. After it was broadcast, it immediately attracted many fans to visit and check in.

Taking this opportunity, Zong Xiaoyu also spent a sum of money to hire someone to do marketing, which made the bar gain many loyal fans.

In just over two months, her bank account has an extra balance of nearly 300 million. No wonder the price of the embedded advertisement of "Star" is said to be sky-high, but there are still countless big companies flocking to send money.

For a woman, both men and money can provide people with a sense of security. Zong Xiaoyu now has both and no longer wants more.

"That's good, or Brother Mingli will blame me."

After receiving the other party's recovery, Xu Renshan joked with a smile.

If the other bar's business is good, then the company will create new variety shows "Creation 99" and "Singer" in the future, so there is no need to come here to take pictures.

Originally, when the other party asked for help last time, he also suggested that the variety show should take a few scenes in the bar, but the proprietress didn't pay much attention to it, but cared more about the scene placement in the TV series.

Obviously, the influence of "Star" is still very impressive, and Xu Renshan has fulfilled the other party's request.

Furthermore, Shangguan Mingli is going to be engaged to the young lady of the Yu family, so there is no need for him to get too close to the Zong boss as a person who is outside the direct line of Shangguan's family.

If it's too late, if the young lady of the Yu family finds out, it will cause some unnecessary troubles.

"Ren Shan, I heard that you made a lot of money from the product placement in that TV series?"

With a raised eyebrow, Shangguan Mingli asked a little curiously.

He doesn't pay much attention to the entertainment industry, but he often hears Zong Xiaoyu mention it, and he has watched a few episodes of TV series with him, so he has a general understanding of the situation of that TV series.

"It's not as exaggerated as rumored by the outside world. The company is very cautious in reviewing the placement advertisements of that TV series. Except for some big-name jewelry and cars that don't affect the look and feel, many manufacturers' applications have been rejected."

Knowing which drama the other party was asking about, Xu Renshan explained with a smile, but did not specifically answer how much the advertising fee was.

At the beginning, the production of "Star" was to promote the crape myrtle tea drink and Hanzhiburg under the Yuming Group, and it was not prepared to accept miscellaneous placement advertisements at the beginning.

It wasn't until the ratings of "Star" exploded that all kinds of manufacturers flocked to it. Qingguo Entertainment picked and picked, and chose several big-name manufacturers without affecting the audience's perception, such as Daifuku Jewelry, Porsche, Chanel and so on.

The advertising fee is not too much, which is only twice the production cost, and it is not as good as the price of the copyright for the second round of "Star".

However, this data is regarded as the company's secret, and it will not be publicized to the outside, so as not to cause unfavorable reactions.

The drama "Stars" is a good start for Qingguo Entertainment's follow-up TV series. The advertising sponsorship before the broadcast has been significantly increased, which has given Qingguo Entertainment a lot of money in a slightly tight financial chain.

"Ad placement really needs to be cautious."

Nodding in affirmation of the other party's approach, Shangguan Mingli turned to another matter: "By the way, Renshan, how much is the advertisement sponsorship fee for the variety show you mentioned last time? Although Tengshu Bar is Xiaoyu's business, but this advertisement The sponsorship fee still needs to be calculated clearly.”

As the confidante he cares most about at present, Shangguan Mingli is very concerned about Zong Xiaoyu's matter.

Unlike Zong Xiaoyu, who is satisfied with the excitement in front of him, Shangguan Mingli knows very well that the popularity of Tengshu Bar will gradually fade after the broadcast of "Star" ends.

Moreover, the variety show "Running Man" produced by Qingguo Entertainment has repeatedly broken new highs in ratings. He also talked about this show with his colleagues in his spare time.

In terms of variety show production, Qingguo Entertainment is also very strong.

At the beginning, Xu Renshan promised to take a few scenes for Tengshu Bar in the new variety show, which was definitely a good thing that he could not have wished for, not to mention that the relationship between the two did not need too much politeness.

Take advantage of this opportunity to show up in a variety show with a wider audience to increase the popularity, and use sufficient funds to create bar characteristics, so as not to disappear among many bars after the popularity of TV dramas dissipates.

Shangguan Mingli, who has gone smoothly in his political career, naturally sees it from a different angle than Zong Xiaoyu, who is confined to one place.

He is very serious in doing things, and he also has a beginning and an end in life.

To live up to Tathagata and live up to Qing is Shangguan's sensible pursuit.

"Brother Mingli was joking, talking about money hurts feelings."

Accidentally glanced at this scheming Shangguan second brother, Xu Renshan naturally would not accept the other party's sponsorship fee, and then talked about the original plan: "Our company's new variety show is related to the talent show. The regional talent show will be held at Tengshu Bar. At that time, we will still occupy a lot of time in the bar, so it’s good that Miss Xiaoyu doesn’t charge us for the venue fee, which can be regarded as offsetting the advertising fee.”

It's definitely not okay to have the idea of ​​"playing tricks" just now. The promise he made at the beginning must be fulfilled.

As for the venue fee, of course it was his excuse.

If Qingguo Entertainment is willing to spend a lot of money to create a variety show, there are many shopping malls that are willing to sponsor the venue for free, and even charge a sponsorship fee.

What's more, the draft time is usually during the day, which has no impact on the business of the bar.

"Xiaoshan, what's your talent show like? In recent years, domestic talent shows are not very good."

After taking a sip of the juice, Shangguan Mingyan asked with great interest.

"We are going to gather 99 young female trainees, select 9 girls through various forms, and create a first-class idol group in China."

After briefly talking about the plan for the new variety show, Xu Renshan specifically added: "The 99 trainees will be selected from all over the country, but this primary selection will not be broadcast on TV stations, which means gaining popularity."

As for the filming of "Singer", Xu Renshan felt that there was no need to work hard, so he didn't talk about it for the time being.

After all, for Shangguan Mingli's confidante, he still has to be careful.

"After the primary selection for your variety show, there should be a regional promotion competition. Can you put the location of the regional promotion competition at Teng Shu Bar?"

Putting down the juice glass in his hand, Shangguan Mingli made a slightly 'unreasonable' request, and then added: "If there are any requirements for the sound and stage, Tengshu Bar can pay for the renovation."

"The stage renovation may cost 200 million, and the regional promotion competition will be broadcast on local stations in the capital at most, and the effect may not be that good."

Unexpectedly, the second brother Shangguan was so shrewd, Xu Renshan pointed out the pros and cons.

The focus of the program "Creation 99" will be broadcast on TV stations and the Internet after the first round of missions begins. The previous primaries and promotions are not important, at most it is to increase popularity and popularity on local stations in various regions.

Whether the stage is unique or not, and the ratings of local stations are not very important.

"It's okay, just take this opportunity to upgrade the bar."

In this regard, Shangguan Mingli, who knows the gains and losses, doesn't care about the fee.

What's wrong with the broadcast on the local station? Tengshu Bar is originally facing residents in the capital area. Do you still think that fans from other provinces will fly over to drink and listen to music?

"If Miss Xiaoyu is willing, I'll send someone over to negotiate."

Faced with the 'persistence' of Shangguan's second brother, Xu Renshan naturally would not refute the opponent's face.

"Thank you, little brother Xu."

Seeing that the other party responded, Zong Xiaoyu, who was mainly a blue-faced confidant, thanked the other party.

What made her happy was not only the bright future of the bar, but also Shangguan's understanding, which diluted some of the sadness in her heart.

"You're welcome."

After raising his glass, Xu Renshan changed the subject with a smile: "It's Chinese New Year, brother Mingli, do you want to go up and sing a song?"

"I won't show my ugliness anymore, go up Renshan and try?"

Shaking his head, Shangguan Mingli didn't want to be so high-profile.

During the Spring Festival on the eve of the engagement, he came out to accompany his confidante so openly, which was already expressing his heart to the maximum.

If it is more high-profile, it will be passed to the old man, and there will be a lecture.

"Xiaoshan, let's go up and sing a song."

It was rare to encounter such an atmosphere, Shangguan Mingyan took the initiative to pull Xu Xiaodi up to sing a song, it was right to go to KTV.

"You can sing, I'll choose the song."

Faced with the enthusiasm of the eldest sister Shangguan, Xu Renshan did not refuse, but put forward his own conditions.

"Okay, as you please."

The atmosphere of Teng Shu Bar is very relaxed. If there are guests who are interested, they can also show off their singing skills on stage while the resident singers are resting.

Of course, with the increase of guests, this rule has some restrictions.

"Ah oh."

When seeing a handsome guy come on stage, several girls at the scene couldn't help booing, including Shangguan Mingxin who didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement.

"Can't sleep in the middle of the night."

"Woke up from sleep."

After 10 minutes, Xu Renshan and the two who had finished singing "The Roof" returned to their seats amid applause, and Shangguan Mingli's cell phone vibrated just in time.

"Sister, is that Shangguan Mingli who wants to marry you?"

In a corner booth of Teng Shu Bar, two women and a man were sitting there drinking cocktails, and the young man asked.

"Ah."

Looking at the calm young man in the distance, Yu Qinghua agreed flatly, with the softness and calmness of a lady.

"The one sitting next to him is the proprietress of this bar, and also Shangguan Mingli's lover."

Sitting next to Yu Qinghua, a young girl with somewhat similar eyebrows and eyes waved her hand indignantly: "He's about to get engaged to his sister, and it's too much to make such a show."

"I'm going to teach that proprietress a lesson."

Facing the romantic affairs of her future brother-in-law, Yu Qingxia, who couldn't see it, got up angrily, and was going to teach her a lesson.

"sit down."

Looking at his younger brother who was full of anger, Yu Qinghua said softly.

Compared with the other second and third generation children in the Beijing circle who like to play more, Shangguan Mingli can be regarded as a clean man, and before the engagement, there were only scandals with the bar proprietress.

In the evaluation of the older generation, this most outstanding son of the third generation of the Shangguan family is very tall, calm and capable, courageous and decisive in doing things, and belongs to the leader of the younger generation in the capital circle.

There is such a future husband who occasionally offsides in life, as long as it does not affect the family, Yu Qinghua thinks it is no big deal.

"Sister, I"

Under the old lady's calm eyes, Yu Qingxia, who had just grown a little fluff on her mouth, couldn't speak anymore, and sat down resentfully.

Their mother died young, and their father was not around all year round. The eldest sister was like a mother, so Yu Qingxia dared not go against her sister's decision.

"Sister, is that Shangguan eldest sister facing Shangguan Mingli? Who is the handsome guy next to the eldest sister?"

Not caring about the embarrassment of his cousin being suppressed by his cousin's eyes, Yu Qingyu looked at the profile of that handsome guy with a little light in his eyes.

The way the other party sang on stage just now was really too handsome.

If it was a collateral descendant of Shangguan's family, she wouldn't mind adding Weiwei as a friend and developing a friendship with him.

"I don't know them, they should be their friends."

Glancing at the pleasing young handsome guy, Yu Qinghua shook his head.

Although Shangguan Mingli can be regarded as the leader among the younger generation in the capital, that strange young handsome guy is really taller by a large margin.

"How about I go and test your future brother-in-law for you?"

At this time, Yu Qingyu took the initiative to invite Ying, and decided to go up the mountain of swords and into the sea of ​​fire for her cousin.
