I Won a Prize of 100 Million at the Beginning, and I Became a Capital Boss

Chapter 196 New capital in the film and television industry: White Deer Studio!
On July 7, Bai Xiaolu and her boyfriend appeared together at the opening theme conference of Puhai Bulgari Apartment, and Bai Xiaolu attended related activities as the brand spokesperson in China.

The 150-meter-high Bulgari building is composed of apartments and hotels.There are Bulgari boutiques and supercar Koenigsegg stores downstairs.

There are three types of apartments for rent or sale. The first type is 1+1 type, with 145 square meters/165 square meters/172 square meters. The apartment type is a one-bedroom suite + a study room.

The second is the most common 2+1 room type, two bedroom suites + one study room, with an area of ​​1 square meters, and the relatively rare 208 square meter three-bedroom apartment type, with three bedroom suites.

The 5th to 39th floors are apartments, and the 40th to 48th floors are the Bulgari Hotel, with a wide view of Bulgari and the Bund.

Zheng Wentong booked a 36-story, 256-square-meter three-bedroom apartment with a total price of around 3000 million. The glass windows and the living room all face east, so you can overlook Lujiazui and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Suhe Bay.

The supporting facilities of the apartment are quite complete, such as a fitness center, a 25-meter constant temperature indoor swimming pool, a luxury spa, an Italian restaurant, an Italian garden, a banquet hall, a high-altitude terrace bar, etc.

Zheng Wentong took his girlfriend for a tour, and both of them agreed that this house is not suitable for living, but only suitable for renting out or working. After all, I feel that there is a strong atmosphere of Internet celebrities, and there are more celebrities in Bulgari.

In case Zheng Wentong wears slippers and a vest to go downstairs for a meal, he will be complained by these socialites and lower Bulgari's prestige.

After all, they spent 5000 yuan to stay in the Bulgari Hotel and enjoy afternoon tea, which will also affect their mood of showing off their wealth in Xiaohongshu and WeChat Moments. It is not clear whether the price will be reduced or not. really affect.

Perhaps because she had some money, Bai Xiaolu asked her boyfriend how the studio should develop further. After all, her goal was to become the next Jiaxing Media or Huanyu Film and Television.

Zheng Wentong set out a route for his girlfriend, first test the waters and produce low-cost web dramas, then start making word-of-mouth web dramas, and finally start to get involved in star dramas, don’t touch movies, the water is relatively deep, but if it is a movie produced by Galloping Horse White Xiaolu Studio can follow up with the cast.

The work of Baixiaolu Studio is very fast. At the end of July and the beginning of August, Ren Jialun, Cheng Yihe and Zhao Lusi were officially signed.

Liu Yuning and Zhang Ruonan's artist management contract also transferred from Weimeng Media to Bai Xiaolu Studio.So far, Baixiaolu Studio has contracted male artists Ren Jialun, Cheng Yi, and Liu Yuning, and female artists Zhang Ruonan and Zhao Lusi.

White Deer Studio has announced its filming plan for the coming year. White Deer Studio will invest in the production of four TV series in total.

Ren Jialun will star in "Zhou Sheng As Old" and "One Life and One Life", and the heroine will be Li Qin.Cheng Yi and Zhou Yutong will star in the urban emotional drama "From Marriage to Love".Zhao Lusi and Liu Yuning will star in the web drama "The Rumored Chen Qianqian".

Bai Xiaolu Studio continues to hire Hai Bo as an acting teacher, mainly responsible for teaching Liu Yuning, Zhang Ruonan and Zhao Lusi's acting skills.When the crew of "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" starts working, Hai Bo will serve as the executive director of the crew, which can be regarded as his comeback.

Bai Xiaolu Studio has completed a shareholding change. Previously, Zheng Wentong held 75% of the shares of the studio, and Bai Xiaolu held 25% of the shares. Now it has been changed to Bai Xiaolu holding 60% of the shares, and Zheng Wentong holds 40%. Bai Xiaolu has become the major shareholder , Zheng Wentong became the second shareholder.

The reason why Zheng Wentong did this was to clarify the identity of Bai Xiaolu as the boss.What if Ren Jialun and Cheng Yi went out to record a variety show, and Ren Jialun and Cheng Yi broke the news on the show that Bai Xiaolu was not their boss, but a shareholder of the company who helped them a lot, it would be embarrassing.

Among the four dramas, "Zhou Sheng As Before" and "One Life and One Life" will start filming first, because Zheng Wentong bought the copyright of the original "One Life and One Life Beauty Bone", and Zheng Wentong believes that be aesthetics will become the mainstream of online dramas.

Zheng Wentong let Mo Bao Feibao, the author of the original author, act as the screenwriter of the play, and Guo Hu acted as the director of the play.In fact, the original "Zhou Sheng As Before" was only positioned as a prequel, an A+-level production, and "One Life and One Life" is an S-level production.

Unexpectedly, "One Life and One Life" was not popular, but "Zhou Sheng As Old" became popular instead. Ren Jialun won many best actor for "Zhou Sheng Is As Old", and his role as Xiao Nan Chen Wang also became a lot of people's hearts.

However, the shooting cost of "One Life and One Life" is much lower than that of "Zhou Sheng As Before", because this is a modern drama, and a lot of advertising placement has been negotiated before shooting.

After Bai Xiaolu Studio announced the filming plan of four dramas a year, the entertainment industry was shocked, and was surprised by the studio's generosity.

Although these four dramas are all online dramas, the total production cost of the four dramas is at least hundreds of millions. How can the studio get so much money?
Many people in the industry are complaining. She has a boyfriend worth tens of billions of dollars, so what's the point of throwing some money at her to make a few TV series?
However, they have to admit that Bai Xiaolu Studio is already a new capital in the film and television industry, and Bai Xiaolu already has the right to speak about bringing capital into the group.They are also observing whether the 22-year-old Bai Xiaolu can complete the gorgeous transition from actor to producer?
However, those who are familiar with Zheng Wentong don't think so. Zheng Wentong is not a casual investor. Since he is willing to support Bai Xiaolu Studio's filming plan and sign several artists in a row, he obviously intends to make a splash in the online drama market. come out.

At present, the film and television enterprises associated with the ramp include Galloping Horse, Noon Sunshine and White Xiaolu Studio.

Galloping Horse is mainly responsible for film production and variety shows. The films include "Passing Through Your World" and "Crazy Alien", and the variety shows include "Tucao Conference", "Talk Show Conference" and "Longing for Life".However, Galloping Pony and Slope Investment also co-produced a TV series "Ordinary Glory".

iQiyi and Mango TV have already started to promote "Longing for Life" and released some edited clips. This kind of slow variety show obviously makes the audience feel refreshed and has a strong sense of anticipation.

Attentive viewers have noticed Zhang Ruonan, the assistant host, and lamented how beautiful she is.Netizens found out that Zhang Ruonan was not an amateur either after digging into it. He signed with Weimeng Media from the very beginning, and collaborated with Liu Yuning to shoot several consecutive micro-movies of Mao's Tree Studio.

However, what makes movie fans feel strange is that the two films that Galloping Pony participated in the production of have already finished filming and finished successfully, but Galloping Pony has not announced the schedule.

Zheng Wentong's idea is very simple. After "Longing for Life" is broadcast, and when everyone is curious about where the mushroom house is, then we will promote Daocheng Yading, the filming location of "Passing Through Your World" and "Longing for Life".

Zheng Wentong is not the only one who is making a fuss. After Yang Jianwen heard that the Mushroom House was also set in Yading, Daocheng, Jijia Apartment also invested in several high-end homestays in Aden, still using the brand name of Jimeng. To be a high-end homestay, the division of labor is clear.

The running men's team went to Puhai Disneyland to record a variety show, and they stayed at Jimeng B&B, which was a little bit of publicity for Jimeng B&B.

Unlike Galloping Pony, Noon Sunshine is mainly responsible for the production of popular TV series, such as last year's hit "Nirvana in Fire" and "The Pretender", and this year's "Ode to Joy". The filming of "Exquisite Ancient City" will start in half a year.

Next year's filming plan is "Dajiang Dahe" and "Everything is Good", these are star dramas, "Dajiang Dahe" is a tribute to the reform and opening up, and Zheng Wentong plans to put this drama on CCTV when the filming is completed.

As for White Fawn Studio, its size is much smaller than that of Galloping Pony and Sunshine at Noon, so it planned to only do web dramas from the beginning.Galloping Horse is in charge of movies and variety shows, Noon Sunshine is in charge of star dramas, and Bai Xiaolu Studio is in charge of online dramas. Zheng Wentong has built a complete production chain of film and television dramas in this way.

Bai Xiaolu Studio's foray into the production of online dramas is a complete complement to this production chain. Although many online dramas are not played very well, they are basically making money. The losers are iQiyi, Youku and Penguin Video. This video site side.

Later, the video site found out that it is a bottomless pit to spend a lot of money to purchase online dramas every year to fill the website's video library. iQiyi, Youku and Penguin Movies and Television are losing money every year.Later, these three platforms began to increase the proportion of self-produced dramas, and established their own film and television companies to produce online dramas and online movies.

The production cost of online dramas is low, and they like to recruit a large number of newcomers, and the actors' remuneration is usually not high.For example, Jiang Jiaen of Heijin Entertainment made a well-reputed film "The Chef Carrying the Pot in the Flower House". She received only 60 yuan from the 5 yuan film salary. In the end, she was forced to let her family sell the house to terminate the contract with the company.

Bai Xiaolu Studio is also in contact with Jiang Jiaen. If she is willing to terminate the contract with the company, Bai Xiaolu Studio can advance her liquidated damages, which will be deducted from her salary at that time.

However, Jiang Jiaen just completed the filming of "The Chef Carrying the Pot among the Flowers" in the first half of the year. She may still have illusions about the agency, and she will wait and see for a while.

He Jiong broke the news on the show before that Black Gold Entertainment, a brokerage company's black-hearted money-making routine, first signed hundreds of trainees in a rush, and if one became popular, he would get his money back.

The remaining 99 did not give resources, and slowly spent with them, let these trainees take the initiative to terminate the contract with the company, and then earn profits by earning liquidated damages.

After Zheng Wentong told Bai Xiaolu the inside story of these trainees participating in the audition, Bai Xiaolu was taken aback. Fortunately, she had foolishly wanted to participate in the selection of SM Entertainment's overseas trainees.

Bai Xiaolu also wanted to get involved in trainee training. At that time, some good seedlings could be selected from the trainees and signed, so that the studio could have a steady stream of backup force. Zheng Wentong helped her dispel this idea.

Zheng Wentong thought to himself, although the post-85 florets Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, and Liu Yifei were complained about their poor acting skills, they still came from majors.But the post-95 Xiaohua Bai Xiaolu, Yang Chaoyue, Zhao Lusi, and Yu Shuxin are all non-actors.

The reason for this is actually related to iQiyi, Youku and Penguin Video’s self-produced drama strategies. Capitalists can praise their own actors.Actors from Yanying, Zhongxi, Puxi and Puying are no longer favored by capital.

So from this perspective, the decline of the Beijing circle has become inevitable.Because the Beijing circle relies on the intricate nepotism, and then weaves a dense network of relationships, allowing them to have a great say in film and television drama production and actor casting.

But when Internet companies entered the film and television industry, capital swept across the entire film and television industry, and these directors and producers in the Beijing circle had lost their voice.And Bai Xiaolu Studio devoted itself to the production of online dramas, which accelerated the decline of the Beijing circle
