China Entertainment's whatever you want

Chapter 642 Going through the back door

"Anything else?"

Yang Liwen hesitated.

“Director Zheng Weiwen has taken over the project of [Chen Qing Ling] and is currently making preparations for the crew and selecting actors.

He has already met the leading actor Xiao Zhan."

"Oh? What's Director Zheng's impression of Xiao Zhan?" Gu Wei asked with interest.

After all, the director didn't agree, so this was the male lead decided by the management.

But with Xiao Zhan's image, I believe Zheng Weiwen will have no problem.

"After the meeting, Xiao Zhan conducted a fitting.

Director Zheng was quite satisfied and felt that the other person's image and temperament were more in line with Wei Wuxian in the original work.

She believes that with [Wei Tianxia]'s current reputation and strength, it is unlikely that such a small artist will refuse the olive branch extended by the company.

After Qin Fang and Si Teng got to know each other at the beginning, and they got to know each other later, their relationship became closer and closer, and some feelings that everyone knew were spreading crazily in the dark.

This is the bottom line!

Gu Wei touched his chin.

If you don't want to, you can't use it no matter how suitable it is.

that is"

"Sister Tiantian, I really can't let you go.

Everyone held a small finalizing ceremony for her, and prepared a small finalizing banquet in the evening.

The two of them came under the banyan tree in the small square outside. Da Tiantian threw down Gu Wei's hand and said dissatisfiedly.

"That's it
Li Xian, Zhang Binbin, and Zhang Yunrong can’t do it, right?

It all depends on the two top stars who became popular in the later period to make money.

“There was just a small problem with the choice of the other male protagonist, Lan Wangji.

And I remember there are quite a few people in the boy band of Wanjijiwa."

Director Zheng Weiwen contacted the company before, hoping to send invitations to some other young actors in the entertainment industry to audition."

After returning to the capital for two days and causing a stir, Gu Weifei returned to Yunnan to continue filming [Si Teng].

"I'll talk to Director Zheng later. It shouldn't be a problem."

Zhu Xudan looked at Jingtian, and then secretly glanced at Gu Wei next to him, with a look of reluctance.

Within a few days, Zhu Xudan finished filming his last scene and left the group.

[Chen Qing Ling] is not an ordinary resource. At this stage, no one except Gu Wei knows that this Danmei drama will explode in the future and win two top-tier dramas.

We can help communicate with the original brokerage company and even pay the liquidated damages on his behalf.

It doesn't matter who you choose, it's important that you choose the person you choose.

As a web drama without any big stars, [Wei Ming Xia] cannot make much money in terms of selling price.

After Zhu Xudan left, the crew's filming also entered the second half of the stage.

According to your instructions, our company, as well as [Jiaxing] and [Wow Haw Haw] actors who have schedules and are of the right age have been notified to audition.

"Work is important, and we may not have the chance to cooperate again in the future." Da Tiantian took Zhu Xudan's hand and consoled her warmly.

"Then let's listen to the director and see what kind of actor he will choose for the role of "Lan Wangji".
But one thing is the bottom line. If the audition is successful, you must communicate with the artist immediately whether you are willing to sign with our company.

"Just what?"

According to the characters in "Chen Qing Ling", there is a high probability that "Lan Wangji" will not be a popular star. Like Xiao Zhan, he is probably a small star outside the fourth or fifth tier.

The relationship between the two was also officially revealed after the scene in the evening.

Yang Liwen nodded. She already knew what her boss meant, and things would be easier to handle.

After all, she is the second female lead in a TV series, and she is also considered an artist under her own banner, so she still has to have the cards she deserves.

Gu Wei smiled and nodded.

"The images of Li Xian, Zhang Binbin and others have nothing to do with Xiao Zhan. As for the men's group, their acting skills are really limited."

But there doesn't seem to be anything suitable inside.

Even if there is no suitable one in the end, he will not give an advantage to outsiders if he decides in his own company.

Gu Wei will never give up the revenue of 10 billion yuan in three years to others. This is not a small number. The revenue brought by a top-notch company is even more than that of an ordinary listed company.

If the company hadn't arranged other work for me, I really would have stayed with you on the set until the final shot."

Director Zheng can just tell the truth, I believe he will understand."

After spending more than a month together, she also liked the somewhat innocent Zhu Xudan, and felt that she was more similar to herself in some aspects.

"What are you doing? You are getting more and more courageous." Qin Fang took Si Teng to the cinema to watch "Avatar". Halfway through the movie, he suddenly took Si Teng's hand and walked out.

"Mr. Gu, I'm leaving then. If you find a suitable role later, don't forget me."

"Si Teng, what I want to say is, I can." Gu Wei looked into Jingtian's eyes with a serious look on his face.

"you can?"

"Whether it's a human being, an alien, an alien, or an avatar.

Si Teng, as long as it's you, I can do it." After watching "Avatar" in which humans and aliens fall in love, Qin Fang finally couldn't control his feelings and wanted to confess to Si Teng.

"What can you do?" Si Teng didn't think too much at this time and didn't understand what Qin Fang meant.

“Along this way, you are no longer alone.

I can do many things with you.

When I promised you before, I can do everything. This is my promise.

But I don’t want you to merge with Bai Ying, I don’t want you to become another you.

What I like is you in front of me! "Gu Wei didn't hesitate, expressed his emotions loudly and directly.

"What did you say?" Jingtian's expression was slightly surprised, but more of it was the emotion he felt after being confessed by Gu Wei.

"I said, I hope you and I can truly become one.

Si Teng, I like you! "

After the words ended, the two of them didn't move, they just looked at each other and maintained this posture.

The camera slowly circles around the two people. This is also a more traditional lens mode in idol dramas. On more important occasions, the male and female protagonists will shoot 360 degrees around, so as to appear romantic.

In the script, in this scene, a small white flower will bloom on Si Teng's head, because her body is a vine, and this will happen when she is emotional.

Moreover, the big tree above the two of them will also bloom small white flowers under the control of Si Teng's demonic power, and the petals will fall like rain, which is extremely romantic.

Of course, these need to be added later when doing special effects.

"Ka! Very good, this part is over!"

The director's voice came, and the last scene of the day was filmed.

Jingtian finally no longer had to control his expression and showed a big smile.

In fact, the two of them have filmed this scene several times, but they were all retaken because of the sweet smile or wrong expression.

"Are you happy after hearing your confession so many times?" As the staff at the venue packed up their things, Gu Wei looked at Jingtian and raised his eyebrows.

"What? I was just in a bad state just now. I didn't understand Si Teng's psychology correctly. I just adjusted it a few times and it was fine. It's not like what you said." Da Tiantian would definitely not admit it.

At night, in the hotel room. Jingtian was wearing a light yellow nightgown and leaning on the sofa.

Her black hair was tied up, and her beautiful face was unpainted. It looked like she had been washed, but with her sweet foundation, she looked very good even without makeup, and she had a cute and pure beauty.

She was holding a plate of green grapes in her hand, eating one from time to time, and looking at the TV. It was obvious that the program inside was very attractive to her.

Gu Wei walked out of the bathroom. After taking a shower, he also changed into comfortable pajamas, walked over and sat next to Jingtian.

Da Tiantian noticed Gu Wei's arrival and unceremoniously put her big white legs on him.

"Ah..." Then he took off a grape to signal him to open his mouth.

Gu Wei put his arm around Jingtian's slim waist and ate the fruit he fed.

"Is it sweet?"

"so so"

"How could it be? It's obviously very sweet when I eat it." Jingtian ate another one himself.

Gu Wei gently pinched her little nose.

"Because it's sweet, you are sweeter"

"I hate it." Da Tiantian smiled and patted Gu Wei's hand away.

"What are you watching?" Gu Wei put one hand on Jingtian's slender waist and the other on his fair and tender legs, looking at the TV opposite the sofa.

"A new variety show from Tengxun Video, which is very popular recently." Jingtian turned to look at the TV, and at the same time, he did not forget to feed Gu Wei some fruit.

It is now 2018, and online TV is developing particularly rapidly.

As early as two years ago, Southern New Media Development Co., Ltd. cooperated with Tencent Video to launch an Internet TV APP for living room smart TVs and set-top boxes - Cloud Audiovisual Aurora.

You can think of it as Tengxun Video on smart TVs. Everything you can watch on computers and mobile phones can also be watched on online TVs.

Jingtian is currently watching a variety show on Yun Audio-Visual Jiguang.

"[Creation 101]."

"you know?

Yes, you must know." Da Tiantian looked at Gu Wei with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

"For this filming, I'm still wondering why the assistant you had before was replaced.

I originally thought it was just a normal personnel change in your team, but it wasn’t until I watched [Produce 101] that I discovered that your assistant actually became an artist and participated in a girl group talent show!

His name is Yang Chaoyue, right? I didn't know it before, but after watching the show, I found it looked familiar, so I knew it from the show."

"Can you remember the assistant next to me?" Gu Wei didn't expect Jingtian to recognize Yang Chaoyue.

"Why can't I remember? I always saw you bringing it with me when we had dinner together before. The little girl is quite pretty, I have an impression."

After finishing speaking, Da Tiantian looked at Gu Wei curiously.

"What do you think about asking your assistant to participate in the women's team draft?

Don't tell me you don't know, this little girl had a dream of becoming a star, and then she gave up her job as an assistant to pursue her dream."

"How could that be? I have already signed Yang Chaoyue to my own company, and she is now an official artist," Gu Wei said calmly.

"What do you think? Although this little girl Yang Chaoyue is indeed pretty and has a good foundation, the span from a life assistant to a girl group is too big. How can you be confident that she will become popular?"

Although he had expected it before, Jingtian was still very surprised to hear Gu Wei say this.

It's easy to do the job of being a celebrity, but if it's not possible, some people will never be famous even after working in it all their lives.

As Xiao Wang said in a previous interview with reporters, colleges and universities with acting departments across the country can produce 10 fresh graduates every year, and even if only half of them are handsome men and beautiful women, there are still 5 people.

So in the entertainment industry, being good-looking is considered an advantage, but it cannot be considered a core advantage because there are too many good-looking people.

"Did Yang Chaoyue graduate from a professional school before working as your assistant?"

Gu Wei shook his head.

"I know what you mean. Not only is my former assistant not from a major, he didn't even go to high school.

Before joining our company, she worked as a female worker in a factory in her hometown. Her family conditions were not good, so she came out to work after graduating from junior high school.

Later, she came to Beijing alone to work hard. It happened that my company was recruiting assistants for artists at that time, and no academic qualifications were required, so she applied for the job.

It’s a coincidence that I ended up being my life assistant.”

After hearing Gu Wei's words, Jingtian was even more surprised.

She originally thought that Yang Chaoyue also had a professional background, but he worked for Gu Wei as an assistant because he didn't have much opportunity. After working for two years, he wanted to become an artist again.

Unexpectedly, the reality is that the other party is really a pure vegetarian.

"Originally, after watching the first episode, I still had high hopes for this beautiful little girl. But now after listening to what you said, I feel like there is not much hope for her to debut."

"How is she doing?"

[Produce 101] The first episode was broadcast on April 4st, and today is the 21th, which is the second episode.

"It's not very good. The initial rating of the 101st girl's debut in the first period was only C. Her singing and dancing skills are relatively average, but she speaks quite honestly."

In the first show of the first period, after all the contestants have performed, the judges will grade them and divide them into classes. The best will be in Class A and the worst will be in Class F.

Although Class C is in the middle, it will be impossible to debut if it maintains this score.

Gu Wei nodded, he was not surprised that Yang Chaoyue had such strength.

People have been trained in singing and dancing since childhood, and some also have other talents. She has been training for several months, and her talent is average. She was admitted to Class C because she is sincere and cute.

The two of them sat on the sofa and watched the second issue of [Produce 101] together.

In this period, the contestants were graded into classes for the second time through their respective performances.

Yang Chaoyue, who performed poorly, not only was not promoted, but was demoted from Class C to Class F.

After the variety show ended, Jingtian, who was already leaning on Gu Wei, raised his head slightly.

"It's over, your former assistant may be eliminated."

Gu Wei reached out and hugged Da Tiantian.

"Do you know what the ultimate goal of the program [Produce 101] is?"

"Select outstanding girl group members and finally form a group to debut."

"That's right, if you want to debut, you should have a girl group company, similar to South Korea's SM Entertainment. Do you know what company they will sign to in the future?" Gu Wei asked again.

“I’ve never paid attention to this.

But this is a program from Tengxun Video. There is a high probability that it will be signed to Penguin Film and Television, right? " Jingtian guessed.

"You are right. The 11-member girl group that will debut in the future will indeed be signed to Penguin Film and Television, but the operation of their team will be done by [Produce 101]'s sponsor and partner [Wow Haw Wow]."

"[Wow wow wow]?
It's the entertainment company established by Mr. Long of Mango TV." Danni Long is very famous in the entertainment industry. She was the former president of Tianyu Media and the person behind "Happy Girl".

"That's right, I also have some shares in [Wow Haw Haw], and I can also speak to Tengxun." Gu Wei said with the corner of his mouth raised slightly.

Jingtian's eyes widened slightly and he looked at Gu Wei.

"Are you going to help Yang Chaoyue through the back door?"

"It can't be said that it's a backdoor project. It's originally a project of our own company, so there's nothing wrong with supporting our own artists.

But having said that, maybe I don’t need to do anything. The final decision for this draft is the audience’s vote. Maybe Yang Chaoyue will be able to advance by herself based on her popularity with the audience.”

Gu Wei spread his hands and said.
