I became famous in the entertainment industry by burning incense

Chapter 314: There are far more than one choice, "Dream Builder" closed with a box office of 16 billion!
Sui Lingfang's words also completely relieved Jinli of her worries.

Jinli thought for a moment and said, "It's not that I can't drink, but my body has been weak for years, so I don't drink if I can, and I don't like to drink.

I thought at the time that if I chose to drink it just to make peace, then the fact that I didn't drink when I greeted other directors would become a handle against me.

Why didn't I drink it before, but drank it after the director asked me to drink it? Isn't this unfair treatment? I believe those directors would not be satisfied either.

The other thing is, once I start drinking, I just keep drinking. It’s endless.”

Jinli said this and sighed softly: "Sister Fang, I don't like unnecessary socializing, it will affect my efficiency."

Sui Lingfang said, "Yes," and said, "That's the truth."

After she sent Jinli back to the apartment, she thought about it and decided to call Zhang Guang.

Currently, Chenxi Entertainment’s most prominent star is Jinli, and the second most prominent star is Xi Mengze.

To be honest, it is impossible for the company to do anything to these two stars, and the announcements given to them are mainly based on their opinions.

Since Jinli has already done this, she shouldn't say anything else after the fact, as it would hurt the artist's feelings.

But she was not as calm as she appeared on the surface.

At this time, Zhang Guang was sending March Day to run an announcement and was riding in the same car with March Day.

He was busy training new people this month and only took March Day to two promotions. Unexpectedly, the second time, he happened to run into Sui Lingfang calling.

Zhang Guang picked up the phone and asked, "What's the matter?"

Sui Lingfang first asked: "Are you free? I have something to talk to you about."

Zhang Guang raised his eyebrows, his intuition told him that Sui Lingfang's tone was not right.

He gestured to the group of boys behind him, and the noise from everyone eating barbecue became much quieter.

San Yue Tian and Zhang Guang had a tacit understanding. As soon as they saw Zhang Guang's gesture, they knew that an important call was coming in, so they asked them to keep quiet.

Chen Lin didn't know what he was thinking of. He took out his phone and sent a message in the group chat.

Chen Lin: [I hope Brother Guang doesn’t discuss any more announcements with us. I’ve already run so many announcements this month that I’m physically nauseous!!!]

Luo Yi: [Don’t ask, the answer is to let us save for retirement]

Chen Lin: [I feel at ease with my current bank card balance. I don’t need to save any more money T^T]

Yan Xingdong: [Silly child, who would complain about having too much money? ]

Gu Cheng: [Any announcement that Brother Guang feels is important is not a small announcement. Xiao Lin is going to give up a deal worth tens of millions? ]

Chen Lin: [Ah... I... let me think about it again...]

Zhang Guang is unaware of the artists' complaints. Marchday's substantial announcements prove their appeal in the industry and that they are still at the top.

If they knew, they would probably say the opposite: "You should be thankful that you still have so many announcements to run this year. If the number of announcements next year drops, it will prove that you are doomed!"

When it comes to how to cause anxiety in artists, Brother Guang has a lot of experience.

Zhang Guang said to the phone: "When you are free, tell me."

Sui Lingfang told Jinli what happened today.

After listening to this, Zhang Guang said with some surprise: "You guys protected Jinli so well. I thought she had encountered this kind of thing before, and you had already determined your position."

Sui Lingfang was speechless for a moment.

Chenxi Entertainment is just a small workshop and has never encountered these things before.

But if you think about it carefully, it may be because Chenxi Entertainment is a small workshop and has no connections in the entertainment industry, so it is impossible to actively find top-level announcements for Jinli. It is the top-level announcements that actively find Jinli.

Those who came to the door actively all wanted to ask for help, so Jinli had never encountered a situation where she was harassed by investors or directors.

She suddenly thought of something and asked, "From what you said, March Day has already happened?"

Zhang Guang said calmly: "We encountered this when they first became popular and formed a group. They offended many people since their debut.

When the group was about to be formed, the investors wanted to get a few people down and squeeze them into their team. Tian Ding thought it was okay, but these guys didn't want to.

They said that if they didn't debut together, it would destroy the integrity, so they would not debut and announced their withdrawal from the competition. The artist was determined, so Tianding could only invest in Fang Gang. "

Sui Lingfang was silent for a while, then said hesitantly: "But Jinli's situation is different from Marchday's."

Zhang Guang said: "There is no difference, Jinli's current situation is actually better than that of March Day.

When Marchday first debuted, no one believed that they could continue their success in variety shows, so Tianding had to face even greater pressure.

But Jinli is already a mature artist. Although those big directors are unhappy with her, they can't ban her. Just because the director is unwilling to use her doesn't mean the platform is unwilling to use her.

Don't forget that this is no longer the era when directors have absolute power. If video platforms want to continue to grow and develop, they must have a high-quality film library and release several S-level blockbusters every year.

But there are only so many high-quality films, and every time they compete for them, they have to bleed a lot, and the platforms can't do business at a loss. So some platforms have already purchased the copyrights themselves, hired people to shoot them, and then put them on their own exclusive channels. "

Zhang Guang pointedly said: "Those film and television platforms will definitely intervene in the production of films, but unlike the conservative film and television circles, film and television platforms don't care about your rules. Their biggest rule is to have traffic and go viral.

So Jinli rejected them, which would certainly offend the older directors, but at the same time, she already had two popular movies, "Dream Builder" and "And Then There Were None", and the market had already proved her value.

The film and television platforms will not miss the opportunity to cooperate with her. On the contrary, they are probably a little worried about how to invite Jinli to participate in their platform-made dramas.

If this matter gets out, it will give the platform hope, and your company will definitely receive many invitations to produce its own dramas in the future.”

Zhang Guang's words were very decisive, and his judgment was based on his experience.

Sui Lingfang breathed a sigh of relief.

Her vision is limited and her judgment of the overall situation is inaccurate.

The reason why she supports Jinli is that she personally thinks that Jinli's approach is not wrong, but she is not sure whether her career will really not be affected.

After all, those big directors still have great influence in the film and television industry.

Now after listening to Zhang Guang's analysis, Sui Lingfang was no longer nervous, but instead felt as if everything had suddenly become clear.

Oh no, the more you want to ban people, the more eager others will be to recruit you!
Sui Lingfang said with a smile: "It's good to have a film and television industry where a hundred flowers bloom. Only when one company dominates will people have no choice."

After Zhang Guang hung up the phone, Gu Cheng asked first: "Brother Guang, I heard you mentioned Jinli, is there anything wrong with her?"

Zhang Guangfeng said calmly: "It's not a big deal. She just did what you did a few years ago again."

Gu Cheng frowned slightly. They had done too many things to the investors over the years.

Zhang Guang then added: "I just told the big director in public that I would not participate in the drinking culture and would not drink at social events in the future."

Gu Cheng's brows relaxed, and he said calmly, "So it's this matter. She's a female artist, and she should have made her attitude clear long ago." Chen Lin smiled and said, "Well done. Let's see if there's any old man who forces people to drink in the future. We never drink when we socialize!"

Brother Guang looked up at the rearview mirror and said lightly, "Are you happy? Do you still want to maintain this special status?

Then you have to run more announcements to let everyone see the value of your top-level traffic, otherwise you will be the first one to be stepped on by those people.

Jinli is different from you, she became famous too early, entered a trough a long time ago, and then recovered from the trough. This kind of person has completely established herself in the circle, and everyone knows her.

Her popularity among the public is her biggest base. No investor dares to confront her openly. These people don’t want to cooperate with her, but there are many who want to cooperate with her.”

Brother Guang started talking about the same old things again: "Alas, if you had the popularity of Jinli, I could also enter the retirement life earlier..."
-
The next day, Jinli continued to participate in the drama roadshow of "Dream Builder" with normal expression.

She fulfilled her promise: she would stop promoting the film only when it was removed from the shelves.

It is also because Jinli, the backbone, has always been there, so the tickets for the "Dream Builder" roadshow are always sold out within seconds.

Director Zhong seemed unaware of the incident that happened at yesterday's celebration banquet, and he did not discuss this issue with Jinli alone.

As for Jinli, she would not take the initiative to talk to Director Zhong about this issue.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Everyone had a certain tacit understanding, or perhaps it could be said that neither of them took the matter seriously!

Director Zhong's wife heard the news from somewhere, but she called Director Zhong and asked how Jinli was feeling.
Director Zhong glanced at Jinli who was getting ready to go on stage and said, "You are very stable."

The wife said: "If Jinli is worried, you can talk to her. An actor only needs to do his job well and don't have to worry about other things. I am optimistic about her future."

Director Zhong smiled and said, "Don't worry, she is not a fragile artist, and she won't worry about gains and losses. Since she has refused, she will not regret it."

His wife complained to him, "You too, why do you always introduce her to some messed up directors? It's ruining her reputation in the industry. I heard people say that she's arrogant and unruly!"

Director Zhong touched his nose embarrassedly, "Every director has a different personality, I don't know if he will suddenly find fault with Jinli... But don't worry, everyone has their own judgment, Jinli's career will be fine."

His wife warned him: "But this incident happened in your place after all, and the child suffered a little. If you have any good resources in the future, please consider her more."

Director Zhong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I introduced her to the industry because I think highly of her. I won't change my opinion of her because of a small matter."

Although he didn't say it so bluntly now, he had already introduced Jinli in, and Jinli would be branded as "Ms. Zhong".

When directors in the industry mention Jinli, they all know that she is from their faction.

He is not as petty as those directors. In his eyes, it doesn’t matter whether the actors drink or not.

On the day when the movie "Dream Builders" was released, the total box office was fixed at 16 billion!
Unfortunately, it did not exceed the 17 billion of "Dark Line Survivor", but it also won the second place in the summer season, and also broke Zhong Wentai's personal highest box office record.

At that time, he told Jinli that if the box office performance was good, he would give Jinli a big red envelope.

Director Zhong did not give out any red envelopes at the celebration banquet, but on the day the movie was released, the actors who were still in the crew had a meal together, and Director Zhong gave them all a red envelope.

When Director Zhong handed the red envelope to Jinli, he specifically said, "Stick to your original intention. Your idea is right. Don't care about the rumors in the outside world."

Jinli's eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded solemnly to Director Zhong.

After dinner, Sui Lingfang came to pick up Jinli to go to Chenxi Entertainment for a meeting.

This is an old tradition.

Every time Jinli finished a long notice, she would return to the company for a meeting to listen to the company's analysis of her popularity during this period and the future planning direction.

In the car, Jinli rarely saw He Yixuan and was a little surprised: "Long time no see, how have you been recently?"

He Yixuan looked a little nervous, as if she was surprised that Jinli still remembered her, and said quickly:
"It's fine. I just came back from filming, and Sister Fang picked me up to go back to the company."

Jinli asked: "Are you going back to the meeting too?"

He Yixuan shook her head: "No, I live in the dormitory over at the company."

She dropped her eyes and pinched her fingers.

At present, the company only holds meetings for Jinli and Xi Mengze. They will have a meeting every time they finish their schedules, and everyone is very envious.

Jinli took the initiative to say: "Your new drama is online, remember to tell me, I will help you to promote it."

He Yixuan said gratefully: "Thank you, Sister Jinli!"

In her eyes, Jinli was really a kind-hearted person, and she would be more than happy to just be friends with her.

But why do they have to be in the same company?

Before, there was only Jinli, and now there is Xi Mengze. With the capabilities of Chenxi Entertainment, I am afraid they cannot bring out a third first-line star.

He Yixuan took a deep breath and made up her mind again.

When they arrived at the company, He Yixuan separated from them, and Jinli asked about Sister Fang and He Yixuan's announcement.

Sui Lingfang said: "It's not very popular, still hovering between the third and fourth female roles. She's unlucky. The drama she played as the second female role in exchange for resources from Xinrui Entertainment has already been aired, but it didn't become a hit.

Later, she played the third or fourth female roles in all the costume dramas. Last year, she finally got the second female role in a youth film, but that film was meant to promote new female and male leads.

Her character as the second female lead was not good. The youth film was released this year and became a small hit, but she did not become a hit. "

Speaking of this, Sui Lingfang felt it was a bit of a pity.

"She has filmed a lot of movies in the past two years, but her luck has not been very good."

Jinli thought for a moment and asked, "How is your acting skills?"

Sui Lingfang: "I asked my acting teacher, and he said it was too conventional and not spiritual enough, and she needed to work on it."

As a celebrity from the same company whom she met not long after traveling through time, Jinli still hoped that He Yixuan could become famous.

She knew that He Yixuan worked very hard, but this girl's personality was not quite to Fang Jie's liking.

Jinli said: "If it doesn't work, let's go to a variety show to show our face first."

Sui Lingfang sighed: "I mentioned it to her, but she refused to appear on variety shows and insisted on filming a drama."

Jinli frowned: "You didn't take any variety shows this year?"

Sui Lingfang: "Not to mention this year, he has refused to accept it since last year."

Jinli: "Then why did she go to Tianding Entertainment? Qinglian told me before that she saw her in Tianding Entertainment. Does the company have any cooperative projects with Tianding in film and television?"

Sui Lingfang was also stunned: "No!"

good night
