Entertainment: let you sell miserably, not let you Versailles

"By the way, young man, you need to decide on the heroine quickly. Recently, many people have come through the back door!"

At this time, Zhou Ling mentioned work again. When it comes to work, Zhou Ling is definitely a strong woman, even stronger than ten Yang Mi.

Ye Feng nodded: "It's been decided!"

"Who?"

"Zhang Zifeng!"

"Her? Why?"

"First of all, her age is right, she happens to be a high school student. Secondly, her acting skills are also passable, so she won't hold back, but she can't steal my limelight. Finally, with such a good book, if you don't give it to yourself, will you give others an advantage? "

In fact, Ye Feng thought about this issue for a long time, and finally found that there were not many female protagonists in the circle who met his requirements. In the end, between Zhang Zifeng and Wen Qi, Ye Feng chose Zhang Zifeng, who was more familiar with him.

Again, you must take more care of your own people.

"Okay, now that you have decided, you will contact the director later, and then you can prepare to join the group. Don't let anything slip in the last tough battle of the year!"

"Don't worry, Sister Ling, I am the man who wants to become the best actor!"

After Ye Feng finalized the choice of the heroine, the next step was to inform the director and Zhang Zifeng of the news.

Zhang Zifeng's acting career is relatively smooth. She made her debut as a child star. She officially entered the film and television industry with the film "Tangshan Earthquake". It has been smooth sailing since her debut. Since there are relatively few child stars and even less outstanding ones, the circle considers child stars. Most of the time I will think of him.

Because she has filmed many works at a young age, it is precisely because of this exposure and her own talent that her acting skills have been gradually developed.

With her glimpses in "Don't Take My Brother Away" and "Tang Detective", she has become one of the acting talents born in the 00s.

However, she has a well-known weakness, that is, she belongs to a family workshop. Perhaps she is afraid that she will be spoiled by the atmosphere in the circle, so her mother has always been the agent. In this way, the most intuitive impact is , she doesn’t have access to many resources.

As she grew up and a batch of young talents emerged, the number of film contracts she had access to became fewer and fewer. In this industry, resources are greater than acting skills.

It was at this time that she met Teacher Huang, who gave her some of his resources, took her to film movies, and took her to variety shows.

However, these are not free. After all, Teacher Huang is also an investment of resources. He gave the resources to Zhang Zifeng. After Zhang Zifeng gets up, Teacher Huang's daughter will also make her debut. Zhang Zifeng will have all these resources. It needs to be returned, and it is also a disguised resource replacement.

However, Teacher Huang's resources are also limited, and it is impossible to really use many of his favors for Zhang Zifeng. Therefore, Zhang Zifeng's film appointments have not been very good in the past two years, especially the film resources.

Zhang Zifeng, who was going smoothly, felt difficulties for the first time.

"Zifeng, do you want to go to that cocktail party?"

At Zhang Zifeng's house, her mother asked with melancholy eyes.

"Mom, you decide!"

Zhang Zifeng is very smart. She knows that some things are not hers to decide. Even if she says she doesn't want to go, if her mother asks her to go, the mother and daughter will end up having a quarrel and then have to go.

She has experienced this kind of thing many times since she was a child, so now Zhang Zifeng has learned to give in.

Zhang’s mother was also sighing. From the bottom of her heart, she was unwilling to let her daughter go to some bullshit drinking party because she knew what was going on. Today she was drinking with her and she would sleep with her tomorrow. Once this gap was opened, , it is impossible to close it later.

But she had no choice. When Zhang Zifeng was in his teens, he would come to her whenever a crew needed actors. At that time, they did not make appointments for ugly movies.

But now, Zhang Zifeng has grown up and become an adult. There are a lot of girls aged [-] or [-] in this circle. Moreover, Zhang Zifeng's face is not pretty, and her figure is not outstanding. She only relies on her acting skills. Can't compete with others at all.

Others have backgrounds and resources, and there are only so many resources on the market now. Some people in their 60s and [-]s want to compete with girls of [-] or [-] years old for food. Zhang Zifeng really has no hesitation.

Receptions represent gathering connections and resources, but do you really want your daughter to follow this path?

Zhang's mother felt even more pain in her heart when she saw Zhang Zifeng's slightly numb expression.

"Zifeng, why don't we go? Don't worry, mom will follow you and no one will bully you. Just go say hello and have a drink."

Hearing what his mother said, Zhang Zifeng felt heartbroken, but he still said calmly: "I know, mother!"

Perhaps the mother has never thought that even if she stops filming, she will not let her daughter accompany her for drinks. In the eyes of many people, family love is priceless, but is this really the case?

Not necessarily. It can only be said that sometimes there is just not enough money. As long as the money is enough, any family ties can be abandoned.

Will she eventually become the kind of woman who takes shortcuts to get to the top?

Just when Zhang Zifeng was secretly feeling sad, his cell phone rang suddenly. After seeing the caller ID, a smile finally appeared on his face. He answered the phone and said in a clear voice: "Brother, why did you suddenly call me Did you call?"

"Stop talking nonsense and tell me the password first!"

"Hahahaha, stay away from Yan Xujia, stay away from Yan Xujia, stay away from Yan Xujia, hahaha!"

"The password is correct!"

"Brother, don't worry, I will always remember it!"

"Just remember, are you busy now?"

"I'm not busy, I don't have any schedule recently!"

"That's good. I have a script here that needs a heroine. What do you think? Do you want to act in a movie with your brother Feng? Let's see who has better acting skills, your brother Feng or Pengpeng?"

Zhang Zifeng was stunned when he heard this, and the circles around his eyes turned red the next moment. Did God really hear his prayer?

Did you send someone to save yourself?
"Zifeng? Zifeng? What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?"

"I'm here, brother, I understand, I picked up, thank you brother!"

"You didn't even look at the script, just talked about the salary and then accepted it."

"If I can act with my brother, I will accept it for free."

"Assuming you can talk, I'll treat you to a big dinner another day. I'll ask someone from the crew to contact you tomorrow, and we'll join the set in a week."

"I know, brother, see you then."

"see you then!"

After Zhang Zifeng hung up the phone, he looked at his mother, and the smile on his face disappeared again: "Mom, I'm not going to the reception."

"What's wrong, Zifeng, you can't be willful. This reception is very important to you. Many directors and investors will be there. Didn't mom tell you? Mom will protect you."

"Have you grown up now? You don't even listen to your mother!"

Seeing her mother like this, Zhang Zifeng still had no expression. She had already guessed this reaction.

"Brother Feng helped me find a role, the heroine of the movie, and the hero is Brother Feng!"

"Heroine, or movie??? Wait, the Feng brother you are talking about is Ye Feng? Do you want to act with Ye Feng?"

"Great!" Zhang Zifeng's mother said happily: "Zifeng, you are really great!!! You are going to act with Ye Feng!!! You are going to be popular!!! When will you join the group? No , when did you sign the contract?”

"We must hurry up on this matter. Let me tell you, I don't know how many people want to film with Ye Feng. If people find out about this, they might use tricks to steal your role."

"Zifeng, why don't you confirm with Ye Feng again? This matter must be settled as soon as possible before you can rest assured."

Zhang Zifeng replied: "We will discuss the contract tomorrow and join the team in a week."

"Really!!! It's great! It's great!! Zifeng, let me tell you, you must work hard with Ye Feng this time. This is a very good opportunity for you."

"Mom, can you go out for a moment? Brother Feng and I still have something to say!"

"Okay, okay, you talk to Ye Feng, you guys talk slowly, help me say hello to Ye Feng, I'm going out first."

After Zhang's mother left, Zhang Zifeng lay on the bed, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes. "Brother Feng, thank you."

Little did Ye Feng know that he had created the butterfly effect again.

If it weren't for him, Zhang Zifeng would have started to contact cocktail parties, and gradually capital would intervene. Later, the establishment of a family workshop would be replaced by a new agent team, and she would also meet Yan Xujia at the cocktail party!

Now, everything has changed.

While Ye Feng and Zhang Zifeng were actively preparing for Young You, several major events happened in the entertainment industry.

First of all, "Fortress", which was called a revitalization production of science fiction movies, was hastily released eight days after its release amidst a lot of abuse. The final box office was 1.2 million, with a loss of 2.4 million. The lead actor, Lao Lu, was scolded all over.

Secondly, the box office of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" was 1.5 million on the first day, 2.8 million on the second day, 3.2 million on the third day, and the total box office in the first three days was 7.5 million. The entire movie ticket screamed wolf. .

Director Jiaozi would thank Ye Feng almost every time during interviews. If it weren't for him, the director wouldn't know if he could have completed this work.

And at the end of the movie, a line of words was dedicated to thank Ye Feng. This also turned Ye Feng, the investment fool who was ridiculed by the entire Internet, into Ye Feite. Mentioning Ye Feng is filled with all kinds of envy and jealousy.

After all, according to this trend, if Nezha doesn't say 50 billion box office, 30 billion should be no problem, but Ye Feng got 1000% of the box office share of 15 million, and got several hundred million more. How can people not be jealous of this?
Just when Ye Feng was making the Internet talk about Nezha, "Dear, Love" starring him premiered on Fruit TV. The ratings that day directly exceeded 2, becoming the ratings champion for the entire day.

Not to mention, since it is an idol drama, Ye Feng has always been acting cool in this drama, which has also allowed countless young brothers and sisters to see Ye Feng being serious about being cool.

For the first time, I discovered that Ye Feng could be so handsome.

After the first day of broadcast, this sentence became the number one trending search.

Immediately afterwards, many people discovered that even if he was acting in an idol drama, Ye Feng still had some acting skills, which made countless young talents ridiculed by the crowd.

You are also acting in an idol drama, why do you have a paralyzed face, while Ye Feng can convey emotions even with his eyes?
For a time, Ye Feng's acting skills were recognized again.

It’s also funny to say that when Ye Feng was in a good drama, his acting skills were almost praised by film critics, but it didn’t touch the public too much. Instead, it was such an idol drama that made the public accept that Ye Feng is a Acting facts.

How do you say this?

It really all depends on the support of my peers!

What's more, Ye Feng finally understood why many people are keen on idol dramas. It's not just because it is easy to act and does not require acting skills. It turns out that it has other benefits.

Shortly after Dear, Love aired, Little Days, Universe Kingdom, and some other countries introduced this TV series, and won the ratings championship in every place.

Then, Ye Feng's overseas fans increased dramatically.

Ye Feng has been relatively well-known overseas before, but it is definitely not as popular as this time, especially the Universe Country. Even though Ye Feng has never been there even once, he already has his own fan club in the Universe Country just because of this drama. , and the number of fans is as high as 20, which is simply terrifying.

When the news spread back to China, netizens were excited. For so many years, it has been the Universe Kingdom that has influenced China, and now one of them has finally returned.

As a result, Ye Feng's popularity became even higher, and a voice even appeared on the Internet for the first time. Ye Feng's traffic has surpassed Lao Lu and became the top streamer.

In this moment of joy, there are still two things that have not been paid attention to, or that netizens are not very concerned about, but these two things have set off a storm for the entertainment industry.

The first one is that Shang Wenjie went in. At this moment in 15 years, many people discovered that there seemed to be a thug hidden behind Ye Feng. Ye Feng did not really seem to use his family connections.

This caused some people who were originally interested in Ye Feng to completely stop.

···
In the hotel, Tian Ai murmured and completely collapsed on the sofa, breathing heavily.

"Ye Feng, are you really a human?" Tian Ai looked at Ye Feng's slow state and said sadly.

Ye Feng patted her back: "I told you not to challenge me. Tian Heniu's theory does not apply to me!"

After saying that, he got up and walked into the bathroom, rinsed off, then walked out in a bathrobe, stood by the window, sat on the sofa, blew on the air conditioner, and lit a cigarette.

Tian Ai looked at Ye Feng, climbed up with difficulty, put on her clothes and walked to him, hugged his neck, and sat on Ye Feng's lap.

"Hey, do you know that the salary limit order is out?"

Ye Feng looked at Tian Ai and said: "What does it have to do with you? You are not a top-notch person and you can't get a high salary. Isn't it a bit unnecessary to worry about this?"

"Do you know how to speak? Am I not worried about you?"

"Do I need you to worry? If you have this time to worry about me, you might as well think about your role. Let me tell you, your role is still a bit difficult. If you still play it for me with the same vase face as before , I won’t go around you.”

"Oh, I got it. I've been preparing for it all along. Hey, tell me, why is this salary limit order so scary to everyone?"

"How do I know?"

"Just tell me, you must know that you are so powerful."

"Just because I'm great doesn't mean I'm great in every aspect."

Tian Ai patted Ye Feng, and then said: "That's not what I meant. I saw it during the launch conference yesterday. The directors, producers, and even investors are all based on you. If you don't know, you are the main one." I thought you were the producer of this movie.”

"You've only been out for two years and you've become the boss of a crew. You must have your abilities."

"I like your ability to flatter, there really is no trace at all."

"Oh, just tell me!"

"Don't move, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences!"

"Well, is that okay? I'll accompany you, and then you tell me!"

Tian Ai sat astride Ye Feng. Ye Feng put out his cigarette butt and said, "The salary limit order is generally a good thing."

"It's a good thing? You're talking nonsense. It's a good thing that so many people will hate this?"

"That's because they are greedy. You know about the actors' remuneration that was revealed last year, right?"

"I know, you are ranked fifth with 1.2 million!"

Ye Feng rolled his eyes and said, "I have never received such a high salary before!"

"Yes, your Wolf Warrior 2 is directly worth several hundred million, and Nezha is predicted to be several hundred million. How can a mere 1.2 million be enough... ah!!!"

Ye Feng grabbed her hard, and then said: "Anyway, this is how it is now. Since the era of traffic, 60.00% of the investment in the production of a movie has been on the actors, and about 15.00% has been used for publicity. "

"In other words, the production of a TV series or movie, from the early stage of crew formation to the service, can only account for 20.00% of the total investment."

"Think about it, with such an investment ratio, how can we produce good works? That's why there is such a thing as cutout. Now in order to curb this abnormal shooting mode, the salary limit order is actually a very effective method."

"If actors' remuneration is curbed, more funds can be invested in film and television production."

"Then why are so many people in the circle opposed to it?"

"This involves an issue of worth. Do you know why many actors nowadays would rather have no films to film than reduce their pay?"

"do not know!"

"Because it is not allowed in the industry, people with the same status, such as Lao Lu, have reduced their salary, so what about me? If I don't, people will go to Lao Lu, but if I also reduce my salary, I'll be fine. I could have made more money by following the same example, but now I can’t.”

"This is blocking people's way of making money, and they will be banned by the coalition. The same goes for the salary limit order. Now many actors' net worth is fixed. After this salary limit order comes out, do you think I will reduce it or not?"

"Then do you think you will surrender?"

"We must give in, but no one wants to take the lead now, so we can only stay in this stalemate for now, so this is a good opportunity for you, the new generation of actors, to come forward."

Hearing Ye Feng's words, Tian Ai's eyes lit up and he said, "Why?" (End of Chapter)
