This star doesn't work overtime

Chapter 57 56. Crazy invitation, the price of a first-line cafe!

This night is destined to be a sleepless night for the Chinese entertainment industry!

The news that the ratings of Dongfang TV's talent show Dongfang Star broke through 3.5 has spread like wind throughout the entire circle.

Everyone's first reaction when they heard the news was disbelief!
Then, I went to confirm it myself, and after confirming it, I began to frantically search for all the news about Dongfang Star, and began to find the reason why this show suddenly became popular!
You know, the reputation of this show last year was very mediocre, and the ratings were in the middle and lower range among many talent shows in the same period, and the highest was around [-]!

This year, it suddenly rose to [-]...

This increase can be called scary.

then!

Many people in the industry began to frantically study the program that was just broadcast by Oriental Star overnight. After watching it, they all had to admire the excellent production and the unique choreography in the circle. Then they studied all the past few episodes again.

then……

Basically everyone has come to a conclusion.

The reason why the Eastern Star program became popular was due to the masked contestant Wang Cheng, who accounted for more than 80.00% of the credit.

Then, the circle began to frantically inquire about Wang Cheng's news.

The staff of the Oriental Star program group, as well as the companies of the contestants, have become the objects of contact by other people in the circle to inquire about news.

"Hey, old Wang, your show is popular."

"Hahaha, where is it, it's average."

"Don't be modest, Lao Wang, I want to ask you something. How about that contestant named Wang Cheng in your program group? I heard that he has a bad temper? What's the matter?"

"Oh, let me tell you about him! He is very good at dancing and talented, but he can't sing. It is said that his singing skills are poor and his temper is really bad. He has conflicts with his teammates, managers, and management companies. When recording the program yesterday, he Leaving early and being late to play big games, quarreling with the director, and then the director drove him away, just like that, young and arrogant, our director is not used to it at all, so he just drove him away!"

"Such a temper?"

"Oh, that's not right! I was so angry when I saw it!"

"Okay, I got it, congratulations for breaking the 3 ratings."

"Haha, it's all thanks to everyone, I'm just a bastard."

……

This kind of dialogue is not uncommon among the many staff members of the Oriental Star program group, and this information is not a secret. It has already been spread among traffic trainees and several talent shows, so no one keeps it secret.

overnight.

A lot of news about Wang Cheng completely spread to the entire entertainment circle.

Everyone knows that the hottest trainee in Dongfang Star who wears a mask is not easy to get along with...

Leaving early and arriving late for the recording program, playing big names, and quarreling with the program director.

There are conflicts with teammates, managers, and management companies...

The contract with the company is only three years, and now there are only two years left.

She is extremely good looking, unique, has strong dancing and choreography skills, unique in the circle, and has excellent music creation ability, but no singing talent!

In the circle, each company, as well as many program groups under each TV station, have all obtained this information.

Some people care about the information about playing big names, and ignore it after reading it.

They can't afford to take care of such trainees...

But what some people see is another message!

For example, there are only two years left on the contract with the company.

For example, he has already been driven away by the director of the Oriental Star program group.

……

Liu Jinfeng didn't sleep well that night.

Because Wang Cheng hasn't made his official debut yet, so he doesn't have an official external agent yet. Zhang Xiuhua is only a temporary team leader agent and doesn't contact the outside world.

People outside want to find Wang Cheng, so they can only contact the artist director of Dongxing Entertainment, the company to which Wang Cheng belongs.

then.

From midnight.

Liu Jinfeng's cell phone never stopped.

"Oh, Director Zhang, it's so late, what's the matter?"

"Mr. Liu, I heard that the trainee named Wang Cheng under your company is currently unemployed, right?"

"Well, there is no announcement for the time being."

"Mr. Liu, can we let him come to the last episode of our show?"

Hearing this, Liu Jinfeng carefully looked at the notes, and suddenly the corner of his mouth twitched.

This is the director of a variety show produced by Northwest Tianshan TV Station that almost no one pays attention to, and the ratings are almost negligible. He exchanged phone calls with the other party when he went to Beijing to participate in a national TV station conference two years ago.

He never thought of any cooperation and communication with the other party.

After all, the overall ratings of Northwest Tianshan TV Station are one of the lowest in the country. Although it is the largest autonomous region in the country, the population of the province is only 3000 to [-] million, and the economic development is relatively backward. No one in the entertainment industry wants to go there. develop over there.

There is no star artist willing to go to such a TV program group.

Liu Jinfeng didn't want Wang Cheng to appear on the show for the time being, so he immediately declined, "Director Zhang, Wang Cheng..."

Director Zhang obviously knew that it would be very difficult for him to invite a very popular celebrity artist, so he quickly said again: "Mr. Liu, I know our conditions here are not good, so I can double the announcement fee according to the market price." !"

Forehead?
Liu Jinfeng froze for a moment.

Double the market price?
With Wang Cheng's current popularity and status as a second-tier cafe, an announcement is at least a million yuan. Considering the current popularity, the price will not be lower than 200 million. If it is doubled, it will be more than 400 million?

This is just the price of a program announcement!

It is already the price of a first-line celebrity artist, and even among the first-line celebrity artist, it is at the upper-middle level.

Liu Jinfeng's heart was instantly moved.

Many entertainment companies spread their nets to train a large number of trainees, what is the purpose of spending money to promote them to the entertainment industry?
Not just to make money!

Seeing that Liu Jinfeng was silent, Director Zhang knew that his money offensive had worked, and immediately continued, "Mr. Liu, after we invite Wang Cheng to our show, we will continue to invest more in the stage, and the publicity will also increase..."

Liu Jinfeng woke up, with halos in his eyes, and said, "Director Zhang, I can feel your sincerity. However, I can only say sorry to you. For the time being, Wang Cheng has no plans to appear on a new program... ..."

He didn't say more, just declined.

Although, he wanted to make the money.

However, for the long run.

He still temporarily refused!

First of all, after solving the contract issue with Wang Cheng, then we can formulate a comprehensive and long-term development plan for Wang Cheng, so that we can make a lot of money in the long run!

So, now he can only reluctantly refuse!
Director Zhang didn't continue to entangle after hearing this, and said regretfully: "Well, that's a pity. If there is a chance, I hope to cooperate."

Liu Jinfeng: "Okay, thank you, Director Zhang, for giving our company an opportunity. Next time we have the opportunity, we will definitely cooperate. This time I am sorry. If I have the opportunity, I will invite guests to make amends."

Although I never thought of any cooperation with Tianshan TV Station.

But, after all, he is a director in the circle, who knows if he will need help from the other party in the future?
Therefore, Liu Jinfeng would not offend the other party, so he politely refused.

Director Zhang also exchanged some pleasantries, then hung up the phone.

Putting down the phone, Liu Jinfeng rubbed his sore eyes and checked the time, it was only past two o'clock in the middle of the night!

His flight back to Shanghai is at seven o'clock!
I can sleep a little longer...

Immediately, Liu Jinfeng put down his cell phone, fell on the bed and continued to sleep.

However, every 1 minute, the phone rang again!

buzzing...

Liu Jinfeng had no choice but to refuse directly, but he still picked it up and looked at it.

His mobile phone is a work phone, and those who know the number are almost all people in the circle, so you can't just refuse to answer it, it will offend people.

I picked it up and saw that it was another producer from Southwest TV, and it was still connected right now.

"Chu Li, it's so late, is there something urgent?"

"Mr. Liu, it's a little urgent. That's it. I heard that there is an artist named Wang Cheng under your company who dances well. We just launched a new dance variety show and want to invite him to perform. Let's start with the first episode. How about it?"

Just rejected the Northwest Tianshan TV station.

Southwest TV again?

These are all fellow sufferers, okay?

In terms of ratings, they are all at the bottom.

Liu Jinfeng smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, Li Chu, our company has other arrangements for Wang Cheng."

Li Chu immediately said: "Mr. Liu, we can double the notice fee!"

Double the notice fee again?
Now Wang Cheng is so popular?
Is this the influence brought by the ratings breaking 3.5?
Liu Jinfeng was surprised and shocked.

There are no trainees under Dongxing Entertainment who have achieved such a feat, so this is the first time he has encountered such a situation, and it is really painful and happy.

"Li Chu, it's not about money, I'm really sorry."

Liu Jinfeng still refused.

Now he just wants to go back to Shanghai urgently, settle the contract issues with Wang Cheng, and then he can pick up money with sacks...

Li Chu over there also heard Liu Jinfeng's firmness, and immediately said: "Okay, that's a pity, let's cooperate next time."

"Okay, next time!"

Liu Jinfeng hung up the phone.

Then, he picked up his phone and began to check the current news about Wang Cheng on the Internet.

but……

Every few minutes, there are phone calls.

They were all invitations to Wang Cheng from TV stations with the lowest ratings or unknown program groups that he couldn't refuse.

The lowest notice fee is doubled, and the highest is 2.5 times, a sky-high price of 500 million!

However, these announcement invitations all have one characteristic...

That is, only sign one issue.

If you sign one season at a time, start at least ten periods, and pay a notice fee of 4000 million yuan at a time, then Liu Jinfeng may not be able to bear it and agree.

After all, that's too much to give...

As an insider, he certainly knew the reason why these invitations were only signed for one period.

That is, they all just want to take advantage of Wang Cheng's current popularity for a while. Whether they will renew their contract later depends on the reaction after watching the show and Wang Cheng's performance.

After all, there are many negative news about Wang Cheng.

These show groups with little ratings are all for popularity, so they can bear Wang Cheng's negative news.

And those program groups with good ratings are still on the sidelines.

Liu Jinfeng browsed some popular news on several major social platforms, and immediately understood why there were so many invitations.

because……

Now Wang Cheng's popularity is too high.

Among the top ten hot topics on several social platforms, Wang Cheng's name appears. Videos of Wang Cheng and An Keru dancing can be seen everywhere. He is the only trainee among many trainees this year, and even the only one in the entire entertainment circle. Others Many big-name stars have not done this now.

And this is the result of no company and program group investing resources to hype.

If Dongxing Entertainment spends money to hype it, it will not be a problem to push Wang Cheng to the top of the hot list!

take a deep breath...

It was the first time for Liu Jinfeng to see such a popular trainee who had just appeared on the third episode of the program, and he was under his own banner, which made him feel a little unreal.

Then, he clicked on Wang Cheng's Weibo page, and his eyes widened instantly!
I rubbed my eyes hard to make sure I read the number correctly...
