Reborn since 2005

Yan Xin stayed here for a week, and Feng Xi stayed with him here for a week.

A week later, they took their children to the capital.

At this time, the Starlight Film and Television Production Company was officially established, and the first TV series they invested in and produced, "The Journey of Flower", was scheduled to start filming on the second day of the second month of the lunar calendar.

The film and television production company was established, and Yan Xin, the boss, of course had to be present.

Previously, Starlight Film and Television Investment Company was just a makeshift team. It rented an office in an office building and opened for business with only a few employees.

The main business is to invest in some film and television projects, but it does not initiate any projects itself.

Then he signed a few artists, and while investing in film and television projects, he also packaged up his company's artists.

But now that this film and television investment company has been established, it is much larger and has more than a hundred employees.

The original office was definitely no longer viable, so we moved to a new location.

The current Starlight Film and Television has a film and television investment company, a film and television production company, and an agency company.

Most of the employees are senior industry practitioners who Zeng Yan poached from other places within the past year.

The scale of the artist group has also expanded, with dozens of signed artists, most of whom are newcomers discovered by themselves, and a small number of artists who already have a certain degree of fame.

I don’t have a first-line job and can’t afford that price.

But there are still a few second- and third-tier stars.

Yan Xin arrived in Beijing the day before the company opened.

On the opening day, he was also present.

Feng Xi also followed.

For this opening, Zeng Yan also invited many media outlets to report on it.

Originally, she wanted Yan Xin, the boss, to accept media interviews, but Yan Xin didn't want to be in the spotlight and didn't want to appear in entertainment news.

Since last year, he has accepted interviews from many media outlets, but at that time he was just a private entrepreneur. Even if he had a certain degree of exposure, it would not have much impact on his life.

Appearing in entertainment news is different.

The audiences of entertainment news are different, and among them there are quite a few people with abnormal thinking. If they knew that he was the boss of this film and television company, it would have a great impact on his life.

The legal representative of the company is Zeng Yan, and she is also the general manager, so just let her take the lead.

All the contracted artists who could attend the company's opening ceremony were present.

Only a few people from the crew who couldn't get leave didn't come.

Zeng Xiyue was also present.

She did not take any acting jobs during this period. She went back to her hometown for a few days during the Spring Festival. The rest of the time she was in Beijing, learning acting, dancing, and cooking.

I keep myself quite busy.

A TV drama project invested by a company has basically confirmed that she will play the leading female role, and she can join the crew as early as next month.

Later this month, the TV series in which she played the third female role last year will be aired.

The remuneration for the new project has not yet been determined, and no formal contract has been signed, only an intention has been reached.

But as long as they still need the tens of millions of investment from Starlight Pictures, they can't get this role.

It doesn't matter if she signs the contract later. The TV series in which she plays the third female role will be broadcast soon. She can refer to the market feedback after the broadcast of the TV series and then determine her pay.

If the market feedback is good and she gains a certain degree of popularity, her pay can increase significantly.

If the market feedback is not good, the pay will definitely be discounted.

Things like film pay are not closely related to the ranking, and what matters more is the actor's personal fame.

The difference in pay between having a mass base and not having a mass base is huge.

Previously, the company expected Zeng Xiyue’s salary to be around 50 yuan - this was not the salary for one episode, but the salary for the entire TV series.

But for those first-line stars, 50 is just the pay for one episode.

If the TV series in which Zeng Xiyue plays the third female role later this month receives good market response and she receives good personal response as well, her pay will increase, starting at at least one million.

For this reason, Zeng Xiyue has high hopes for the TV series to be aired this month.

She signed a new employee contract with the company, which had rather harsh terms.

Even if the film salary was 100 million, after the company and the agent split the profits and then deducted the personal tax, what she would get would only be around or yuan.

However, this one or two hundred thousand is a huge sum of money for her, and it is wealth that she has never had before.

I have been in the industry for two years, but I have never had enough money, and often I have to borrow money from Zeng Yan.

If possible, of course I would like to have more money in my hands, so that I can have more self-esteem.

At this opening ceremony, I met Yan Xin. We hadn’t seen each other for over a month. I felt quite excited when we met again.

But she didn't dare show it.

It wasn't because Yan Xin's wife Feng Xi was next to him, but because there were too many people at the scene, and she was afraid that if she showed any feelings for Yan Xin, outsiders would notice it.

If any gossip got out, her own future would be ruined and it would also have a very bad impact on her boss.

So during the entire celebration, she didn't talk much to Yan Xin - if she did talk, it was just a few simple exchanges.

Feng Xi, on the other hand, talked to her more often. Many times, he held her hand and talked to her with a very intimate attitude.

This also made other artists in the company very envious.

However, those people did not think of anything else. After all, this was the boss's wife, not the boss.

The only reason he could be so kind to her was because of her aunt.

I can only envy her for having a good aunt.

During this celebration, the person Feng Xi communicated the most with was Zeng Xiyue.

Then came Zhao Xiaoying, who is about to play the leading female role in the company's opening film "The Journey of Flower". She also talked to her a lot and was very enthusiastic.

Zhao Xiaoying felt a little flattered - is the boss lady so enthusiastic?
She played the leading female role in a costume drama that Starlight Film and Television Investment Company co-invested in the year before last, but that drama has not been broadcast yet. She is not very famous and is not even a third or fourth-tier star.

It didn't cost much to recruit her from Starlight Film and Television Company. They just promised her that they would give her the best film and television resources to support her, and that she would play the leading female role in the first TV series produced by the company.

Such conditions were too tempting for her, who was still an unknown person, so she was poached.

The project of "The Journey of Flower" has been submitted for review, the team has been assembled, and filming will begin in a few days.

She has already signed the contract to play the leading female role. The pay is not very high, but it is about twice as much as her pay for her previous TV series.

The male lead is a star from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and is very popular.

Their pay is much higher than hers, almost ten times more.

But she didn't feel unbalanced - it was normal for him to be paid high for his fame. She was even a little excited - being able to partner with such a famous male star would definitely take her career to a new level.

Maybe I can use this opportunity to become a star.

Today was the first time she met the company's boss, who was unexpectedly young and handsome.

She also knew that the boss was married and had children, and she had never heard of the boss having affairs with the company's artists, so she didn't have any thoughts.

When the boss saw her, he just smiled, nodded, said hello, said a few words of encouragement and walked away. He didn't have much communication with her.

It made her feel at ease, but also gave her a different feeling.

Unexpectedly, the proprietress saw her and was very enthusiastic towards her. She held her hand and talked to her a lot, asking her many personal questions, which made her a little confused.

However, she was very happy that the boss's wife was so enthusiastic towards her. She felt that coming to this company was worthwhile and was the right choice.

She also learned about the boss's wife's situation. She was not just a pretty face. She started her own business and opened her own company. She relied on herself and became a billionaire at a young age. She could be considered a business tycoon and an upper-class person.

And he didn’t get to this point by relying on connections. He was born into a common family and started from scratch.

To have everything you have now in just a few years is a testament to one's great ability.

She didn't even know of any other woman of the same age in the country who was more capable in business than the boss's wife.

If you can develop friendship with such a being, it will definitely be of great benefit to your future career.

Therefore, she also responded extremely enthusiastically to Feng Xi's goodwill.

Zeng Xiyue was watching from the side, feeling a little uncomfortable for some reason:

"I thought she liked me, but now she's so passionate about another female artist... Is it true that love can disappear?"

Although she couldn't accept Feng Xi's strange feelings, she still felt a little sour when she saw Feng Xi's strange feelings were transferred to another young and beautiful girl.

Just like some girls, they look down on licking dogs and think that they are harassing themselves. But when they see that the licking dog stops licking them and turns to licking other people, they still feel uncomfortable.

Zeng Xiyue is feeling a bit like that now.

It's not very serious.

Yan Xin also discovered that Feng Xi was quite enthusiastic towards Zhao Xiaoying, and felt a little strange about it.

But it's not particularly strange.

In his previous life, he accompanied Feng Xi to watch "The Journey of Flower" several times. He knew that Feng Xi liked this female star very much and he even confronted the black fans of this female star on the Internet platform.

Although Zhao Xiaoying has not become famous in this life, her face is still the same. Maybe that face just suits Feng Xi's aesthetic taste, so when he sees her now, he still likes her the same way and that's why he tries to get close to her.

In fact, doesn't he also dislike this female star?
It’s just that kind of liking for an idol is a very ordinary kind of liking. Sometimes I’ll fantasize about it, but there won’t be too deep emotions, and I won’t bring it into reality.

He wanted to communicate more with the female star, but with so many people present, he didn't want to do anything that might cause misunderstanding.

So we just said hello, exchanged a few simple words and then it was over.

Now seeing Feng Xi chatting happily with this female star, he felt a little envious - she could do that, but he couldn't.

There are differences between men and women!

At the company's opening ceremony, Zeng Yan accepted interviews from the entertainment news sections of many media outlets. She talked about the purpose of establishing such a film and television production company, and also talked about some of the film and television works that the company will invest in and shoot next. She emphasized "The Journey of Flower" which will start shooting in a few days, how much investment it has, and what kind of cast it will have.

Those are all exaggerated, so that they can create a bigger gimmick and attract more attention.

Each of the entertainment reporters who participated in the interview received a considerable amount of travel expenses.

It doesn't necessarily mean that they should write soft articles to praise themselves, but at least they should not blacken themselves.

In a sense, this travel fee is a protection fee.

That's the fourth power.

If you ruin your relationship with them, the consequences will be quite serious.

After attending the opening ceremony and having lunch at the hotel, Yan Xin did not stay in the company and went home with Feng Xi.

On the way home, Feng Xi asked Yan Xin with a smile:
"Have you ever thought about taking advantage of Xiaoying as well?"

Yan Xin shook his head: "I haven't thought about it. I don't think it's necessary."

Whether he has ever thought about it or not, only he himself knows.

But he thought it was true that "there was no need for that".

It's normal to have some thoughts when you see a beautiful girl.

But there is no need to do that in reality.

Feng Xi smiled and said, "You can do whatever you want. All I ask of you is that you don't lie to me about these things. Don't say no but do whatever you want behind my back."

"Don't worry, I'm not that kind of person!" Yan Xin said seriously.

Feng Xi sneered: "Brother, you don't need to say that, right? Haven't you done enough of this kind of thing?"

Yan Xin thought of some of the things he had done in the past and his face turned red.

I really have no right to say that.

He coughed and tried to make amends for himself:
"That was me in the past. I did make a lot of mistakes back then. But now I know I was wrong and I will never make such mistakes again."

"Okay," Feng Xi said with a smile, "I'll just listen to what he says and see what he does."

"I can accept the test." Yan Xin said.

He really had no intention of taking advantage of others.

The purpose of recruiting the other person is to make her help you make money, and it has nothing to do with whether there are any unspoken rules.

It's a money tree, and its biggest function is of course to ask for money, not to shake one for yourself.

He has no shortage of women, so there is no need for him to eat in such an ugly manner.

At around four or five o'clock that afternoon, Zeng Xiyue came to visit and had dinner with him.

She didn't stay here, and Yan Xin sent her back later.

I just went out at around 8pm and when I came back it was already pm.

Feng Xi asked him with a smile: "You came back so late, is the traffic jam so serious at night now?"

"It's not a traffic jam. I did something in the car." Yan Xin admitted it more readily this time.

"Hey, why are you so well behaved today?" Feng Xi exclaimed.

"I've already told you, I won't lie to you, I'll keep my word!"

Yan Xin said righteously.
