During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 559 Yang Mi's sense of crisis Ni Ni also wants to improve
As Ning Hao said, Xiao Ma quickly held a press conference and formally rejected Huayi's acquisition intention.

"Since 08, Xiaoma has raised nearly 20 billion yuan in total, not to help others. Xiaoma's ultimate goal is to seek an independent listing, and its original intention will never change.

In the remaining six months, we will submit an IPO application and launch a charge towards the A-share market. We also hope that like-minded friends in the industry will join us and move forward together."

Although this news was shocking, most of the attention came from companies in the industry, while the actors in the circle had already been attracted by another piece of news.

"The film "The Return", adapted from Yan Geling's novel of the same name, "Lu Fan Yan Shi", written by Yan Geling, co-produced by Shanhe Media and Zhang Yimou Studio, and directed by Zhang Yimou, has been approved."

"It is reported that Gong Li and Chen Daoming will play the leading roles, and the remaining roles are yet to be determined."

As soon as this news came out, many actors in the film and television circles became excited.

Although the leading female and male roles have already been decided, the combination of Zhang Yimou, Gong Li and Chen Daoming is a luxurious lineup.

Even if what's left is just a supporting role, it's definitely what actors in the industry desire.

The actresses in particular are all eyeing the second female lead position. After all, playing a supporting role to Gong Li, even if she is a first-line actress, would definitely not be considered a drop in class.

And judging from the subject matter, it is likely to be an award-winning film. And Zhang Yimou's award-winning films are at least shortlisted!

Almost all major film and television companies, brokerage firms, and actor studios that manage artists have taken action.

Including many female art students in school, they all took action, and almost everyone had a copy of "Lu Fan Yan Shi" in their hands, waiting to fly to the tree and become a phoenix.

After all, the starting point of a Mou Girl in the circle is a height that ordinary people cannot reach.

There are only so many top resources in the entertainment industry, and it’s hard to get a chance without using backdoors.

So Wei Jin was still editing at the company when he received a call from Yang Mi.

"Mi Mi, why are you here to join in the fun? Didn't the filming of "Gu Jian Qi Tan" just start? Do you have time?"

There was some helplessness in Wei Jin's tone. As long as there was a chance, this woman would always charge forward.

"Brother, don't we still need to conduct preliminary training? I think the time should be quite suitable, right?"

Yang Mi has a clear goal. She wants to seize every opportunity while she is young and use her popularity to drive the development of the studio.

According to Zeng Jia's theory, TV series stabilize the popularity base, while movies enhance the status of the stars. And Zhang Yimou's movies are undoubtedly a boost to the status and gilding.

Especially when "Tiny Times" has lost its reputation, she needs a high-quality movie to clear her name.

More importantly, Yang Mi had a strong sense of crisis as she discovered that there were more and more women around Wei Jin.

Not to mention the four Jin girls, they are basically not on the same track anymore, but other opponents should not be underestimated.

Fan Bingbing, this slutty vixen, is very good in bed and has bewitched Wei Jin; Liu Shishi, this little white flower, seems to have a high status in Wei Jin's heart.

Including those assistants, they all had a good relationship with Wei Jin, and even Huang Mengying, who had just debuted, got the second female role in Ning Hao's new film.

If she doesn't take the initiative, she might not even hear any news in the future and will be directly selected.

But Yang Mi didn't expect that even though she acted so quickly, she still heard bad news.

"This role has almost been decided."

The casting for Zhang Yimou's new film must be discussed with him in advance. After determining the leading female role and the leading male role, Wei Jin set his sights on the second female role.

Because this role requires dancing skills, the only women around Wei Jin who meet the requirements are Liu Shishi and Jing Tian.

And before that, it had been promised that Zhang Yimou had a suitable script and wanted Jing Tian to be in it, so Wei Jin decisively recommended him.

Zhang Yimou, who usually doesn't like being interfered with, was very straightforward this time and agreed directly.

Although Jing Tian will have to try out for another role later, it is likely to be just a formality.

"Oh"

There was a hint of disappointment in Yang Mi's tone, but soon her eyes lit up again.

Zeng Jia was standing by at this time, and seemed even more anxious than Yang Mi. When she hung up the phone, she couldn't wait to ask:
"Mi Mi, how is it? What does President Wei say? Is there a chance?"

"No chance, the role has already been given to Jing Tian."

"Ugh"

Zeng Jia shook her head helplessly. Sometimes she had to sigh that other people were lucky because all kinds of resources were directly fed into their mouths.

"But Sister Jia, my senior promised me a movie, and I will play the leading female role with Deng Chao."

"Really? That's pretty good."

Although Zeng Jia didn't know what movie it was, she thought the lineup of Deng Chao and Yang Mi should be good.

What Wei Jin promised Yang Mi was the movie "Breakup Guru".

According to Deng Chao's estimation, the filming of this drama is expected to start after September, which is just right for Yang Mi's schedule.

It is worth mentioning that, because of the relationship with "Running Man", Deng Chao had already invited Nazha and Liu Yan in advance. Although they are both supporting roles, it also shows that old Deng is quite a good person.

All in all, all the important roles had been grabbed before the project was even launched.

There's no way around it. This is how the circle works. Many projects have already had results by the time outsiders get the news.

But Wei Jin didn't expect that this time it was not only Yang Mi who had the idea, even Ni Ni, who had always been shy and had never asked for resources, also called.

"Little brother, I also want to improve~~~"

Listening to the Wu Nong tune that was deliberately played on the phone, Wei Jin's mind automatically emerged with Ni Ni's pure and lustful face.

If she wasn't busy with the roadshow promotion of "Shendu Dragon King", perhaps this girl would have rushed straight back to the capital and used her enchanting figure to entangle Wei Jin.

But no matter how charming it is, the answer given by Wei and Jin remains the same.

But Wei Jin was thinking that after returning from this road show, he could give Ni Ni some more responsibilities.
Zhang Yimou was very interested in the drama Coming Home and hoped that it would start filming as soon as possible, so he quickly arranged a test audition.

The second female lead in the script, Lu Dandan, is the daughter of the male lead Lu Yanshi and the female lead Feng Wanyu, and is good at dancing.

Although Jing Tian did not stay in Beijing Dance Academy for too long, she started practicing dance at the age of 6 and entered the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy at the age of 12. After ten years, her basic skills are still good and she has been recognized by Zhang Yimou.

He then performed a few scenes as required, and because he had prepared well in advance, Zhang Yimou felt that it was okay.

What satisfied Zhang Yimou the most was Jing Tian's temperament, which was quite suitable for the role of the second female lead.

After all, the male protagonist Lu Yanshi is the young master of a wealthy family in Shanghai, which was the "aristocracy" of that era.

"Tiantian, the preparations for this drama are almost done, and it will start filming at the end of this month at the latest. Is your schedule suitable?" Hearing this, Jingtian knew what Lao Mouzi meant, and nodded with a smile on his face.
"Director Zhang, rest assured, I will make arrangements. Is three months enough?"

Given Jing Tian’s current status, the fact that he was able to give her a three-month schedule shows how much importance she attaches to this drama.

Zhang Yimou was also very satisfied with this. According to his estimation, the filming of this drama could be completed in about two months, so he offered his hand.

"Okay, then Tiantian, I wish you a pleasant first cooperation."

Jing Tian smiled sweetly and shook hands with Lao Mouzi.

"Director Zhang, it's been a pleasure working with you. Please be strict with me during the filming and feel free to give me some pointers."

"Haha, don't worry, I would be able to do it even if you don't tell me."

"An anonymous source revealed that Jing Tian hurriedly ended her schedule and secretly returned to Beijing. She appeared at Shanhe Building and was suspected to be auditioning for Director Zhang's new film!"

"The second female lead in the movie 'Coming Home' seems to have been confirmed!"

There are no secrets in the entertainment industry, not to mention that there are media reporters lurking around Shanhe Media for a long time. Jing Tian’s audition did not escape the eyes of those who were interested, and a lot of gossip appeared that afternoon.

In view of this, Shanhe Media and Zhang Yimou's studio did not hide it and announced on their official website that Jing Tian would play the second female lead.

As soon as the news came out, many actresses waiting for auditions and art students in school were all stunned.

Because according to past practice, Zhang Yimou's casting choices have always been made with great fanfare.

Both "Under the Hawthorn Tree" and "The Flowers of War" were auditioned nationwide, and I wonder how much heated discussion they sparked.

But this time it was actually decided like this? Has Lao Mouzi fallen now? Where is the status of a great director?
But when I think about it carefully, it seems that from the beginning to the end, they never mentioned that they would conduct external casting. I was really being self-indulgent.

Just looking at Jing Tian's name, most of the actresses felt secretly annoyed.

why?
Why is Boss Wei willing to guard his small fish pond?

The colorful world outside is so beautiful, why not come and try it?

We also want to try the feeling of being carried away
Wei Jin had no time to care about the thoughts of the artists in the circle. He was currently accepting Jing Tian's gift.

After changing several channels, I unexpectedly discovered that Zhang Ziyi was a judge in "The Voice of China". Is this her start to make money?

What surprised Wei Jin even more was that Yang Mi actually sang in this episode.

But her voice was really frustrating. Wei Jin's mouth twitched slightly, so he changed the channel decisively.

"The smoke of war is rising~~Who dares to lend me a sword to ask about the vicissitudes of life~~"

"Hu Ma Chuang~~swears to wipe out the turbulent waves~~"

"Walking through the wind and waves, letting the black hair turn to frost"

Jing Tian was slightly surprised when she heard "The Legend of Loyalty" coming from TV.

"Wow, brother, I didn't expect Xiao Ming to sing so well. He actually cooperated well with the great teacher Tan Jing."

"Well, it's pretty good, much better than 'Nao Tai Tao'"

"hehe."

Jing Tian smiled and then stared at the screen with a puzzled look on his face, "Brother, why do I feel like Xiao Ming has grown taller?"

"Well, your feeling is right, he has grown taller."

After getting Wei Jin's answer, Jing Tian was shocked: "Ah? He's already over 30, right? Can he still have a second growth spurt?"

"0.0"

Slightly impressed by the little girl's imagination, Wei Jin held her tighter in his arms, feeling the delicate touch between his fingers while telling her the situation.

Although Huang Xiaoming's acting skills are erratic, he often takes on bad films, and his taste in choosing women is poor, his attitude towards life and work is impeccable.

Especially when it comes to scripts that I like, I take them very seriously.

In order to film this drama well, not only did he hire a personal training team, develop a training plan, and develop six types of abdominal muscles, he also wore specially customized height-increasing combat boots throughout the entire drama.

It is to make him look more heroic and extraordinary, in line with the image of Marshal Yue.

Of course, Huang Xiaoming’s efforts were not in vain. After the script was revised by the screenwriter department, the performance of "The Legend of Yue Fei" was very impressive.

Since the beginning of the month, the show has been broadcast on four channels, namely Dongshan TV, Tianjin TV, Anhui TV and Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, and good news has been coming in frequently.

On the day of the premiere, three TV stations directly made it into the top five local satellite TV ratings in the country, and the highest result was ranked second during the same period.

You know, the ratings structure of the domestic first-tier local satellite TV stations has basically been locked.

Shanghai TV, Jiangsu TV and Mango TV are three TV stations that have long cooperated with Shanhe Media. Whether in the field of TV dramas or variety shows, they have always occupied the top three places in the domestic entertainment lists.

But this time, it was unexpectedly overtaken by second-tier satellite TV stations such as Dongshan and Jinmen.

It is conceivable how great the influence of this drama is.

Judging from the ratings reported by the TV station, "The Legend of Yue Fei" can indeed be called a hit.

In less than a week, it quickly climbed from 1.7% in its premiere to 2.3%.

It seems that as the subsequent plot progresses, the ratings will usher in a new climax, and it is not impossible to even break 3.

Moreover, the online playback volume and the heated discussion on social media were also quite high, which defeated the dramas of the same period such as "The Legend of Mulan", "Everyday Happy", and "The New Goddess of Luo River".

The purchasing directors of the four companies who had gritted their teeth and made the decision to buy the TV series are now extremely happy.

According to Wang Changtian, the guy from Tianjin has hit the jackpot twice in a row and is about to be promoted.

Of course, the producers this time also made a lot of money.

The drama has a total of 60 episodes, and with an additional investment in the middle, the total investment is as high as 1.6 million.

However, the first round of broadcasting rights were sold at a price of 260 million per episode, and combined with the online broadcasting rights, it directly achieved profitability.

The subsequent second and third round broadcasting rights will definitely make a lot of money.

More than half an hour later, the TV series ended, and Zhou Huajian's song sounded at the end, and Jing Tian's face also showed a strange blush.
