Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 2730

What Lin Daoqiu said is not a trivial matter. The neon entertainment industry has its own ecology. If you do something unique, you will definitely be disliked by others. You will not say anything to you, but it will be difficult to say it secretly. , at least in terms of relationship will become more alienated from you.

And don’t look at Mae Chuan Kiyoshi as the president of Shochiku Yinghua, but Shochiku Yinghua is not the only one who has the final say. I don’t know how many brains there are. He will be replaced if he goes too far. After all, Shochiku Yinghua The president of the company is not for life, let alone hereditary.

Originally, Lin Daoqiu only made this suggestion out of being good to the artist, but what Maekawa Kiyosaki said made Lin Daoqiu realize that this may be possible in other places, but in this special place like Neon, I am afraid to go. It is very difficult to do it, if it is not for Qian Chuanqing, he will have to rely on Lin Daoqiu in the future, he will not say anything to the other party on this matter, just veto it directly, or just turn a corner and refuse.

"That's fine, I'll talk to President Okada, but you're also going to give the artists a little more time to rest, how about it?"

"No problem, I'll do my best."

Lin Daoqiu was somewhat relieved, which made Maekawa Qingze also a little relieved. After all, he didn't want to offend Lin Daoqiu, and the benefit of the other party would come soon. The hard days are over.

That is to say, with this hope, now he is very important in Songzhu Yinghua, and the right to speak is much more important than before. If not for this, he would not pretend to be a grandson in front of Lin Daoqiu. After all, the other party is not a neon person. Not to mention being so young.

After leaving Songzhu Yinghua, Lin Daoqiu called Okada Shigeru after getting in the car.

He moved so quickly because he was worried that Qian Chuanqing would tip off the other party, so he hurriedly discussed the matter with the other party first, at least not giving them a chance to collude.

"Mr. Okada, I'm Lin Daoqiu."

"Mr. Lin, do you have any orders?"

When receiving the call from Lin Daoqiu, Shigeru Okada thought that the other party wanted to ask about the promotion work of "Onmyoji". After all, the movie will be released in a week, and it is normal for Lin Daoqiu to care about these things at this time.

"There's something I want to talk to you about..."

Lin Daoqiu told Shigeru Okada about the artist's rest time.

After listening to Lin Daoqiu's words, Okada Shigeru's brows were unconsciously frowned.

"Mr. Maekawa and I have already talked about this matter. He is willing to do it in principle, but I don't know what Mr. Okada thinks?"

"President Maekawa is willing to cooperate?"

Hearing Lin Daoqiu's words, Okada Shigeru was taken aback. He felt that Maekawa Kiyoshi's brain was flooded, and he dared to promise such a thing to Lin Daoqiu?Once this kind of thing happens, it will be a big news in the neon showbiz industry.

Except for a super independent company like Johnny's, others will definitely watch them with the mentality of watching a good show, and will definitely not respond or follow along.

You must know that in later generations, it is not uncommon for an artist to change jobs and be blocked by a brokerage company, unless some of these really big names come out to start a company after their contract expires, such as Takeshi Kitano, no one dares to take care of it. .

If only some well-known celebrities dare to do this, no one will be able to make a living by then, and it will be difficult to make ends meet. Originally, they have always played the leading role, but after becoming independent, they can only play supporting roles. I can't watch it, so I can only watch the TV series late at twelve o'clock, which shows how complicated the rules of the neon entertainment industry are.

"It's actually a good thing for artists to rest more and stay with the company. If they are exhausted, the company will lose the company. It took so much time and energy to make a person popular. In case the body suddenly fails, work and work will be delayed. Wouldn’t it be worth the loss to shoot it?”

Lin Daoqiu's words seem to be very good, but Okada Shigeru doesn't think so.

The rules of the Neon entertainment industry have been around for a long time, and many unspoken rules have been implemented, not to mention the unseen rules that Neon adheres to here, but any change will be a big deal, let alone Lin Daoqiu It is not an exaggeration to say that this impromptu proposal is a bit embarrassing for Shigeru Okada and Kiyonori Maekawa.

"It's a blessing for Mr. Lin to understand that artists are artists, but the way Nihong is doing is different from other places. We have all survived like this, and they are all young people. It doesn't matter if you suffer more when you are young. , Not everyone can enjoy the glamorous life of an artist."

Okada Shigeru did not directly refute Lin Daoqiu, but he still gave the other party a soft nail. He would not directly deny your suggestion but would tactfully refuse it. He was more cunning than Maekawa Kiyoshi.

"What do you think of my proposal, Mr. Okada?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't want to go around with Shigeru Okada. He has been in Toei for a long time and is considered highly respected in the industry. If he can stand up and respond to Kiyoshi Maekawa, this matter can definitely be done, but it seems that Shigeru Okada is unwilling to do it now. Worrying about causing dissatisfaction.

Don't look at it as if it's just a matter of Shochiku and Toei. When it really happens, people in the entertainment industry will not be fools. Everyone will have eyes. Everyone will see what you do. Shochiku and Toei After changing the rules, whether others should follow or not is a headache.

Shigeru Okada became nervous when Lin Daoqiu asked him this question. The other party wanted him to make it clear.

"Mr. Lin, this matter is not easy at all. Even though Mr. Maekawa and I are the president of the company, we have no way to make decisions on some matters. You just said that he agreed in principle, which must not be true. You can order other things and I will definitely help you, but I have no way to decide how to use the artists."

After thinking about it, Okada Shigeru decided to tell Lin Daoqiu the truth. After all, offending Lin Daoqiu would not do him any good. In the future, Dongying would have to rely on Lin Daoqiu as a big tree to develop.

"Is it really that difficult?"

Lin Daoqiu originally thought that as long as Okada Shigeru and Maekawa Kiyoshi took the initiative to take the lead, it would not be difficult to promote this matter, and even if others were unwilling to respond, as long as Shochiku and Toei did so, they would Are you afraid that there will be no artists to vote for when you really grow up?
After this kind of rule has been implemented for a few years, other people will naturally follow it subtly.

But now it seems that things are not as simple as I estimated. When I was just about to start, I couldn't do it, let alone implement it.
