China Entertainment 1997

Chapter 639: The East and West Palaces Against the Female Stars of Half a Century

The entertainment industry in April is still filled with the residual power of "Zhen Zhao vs. Chao", but this has nothing to do with Fanxing.

It is spring and summer, and many crews of Fanxing are starting filming. Hu Jing, who has recently been expected to take over, is also quite active and attended the launch ceremony of "A Thousand Bones" of the key crew.

During this period, she whispered a few words to the heroine Zhao Xiaodao from time to time, which attracted the media to take pictures.

Zhao Xiaodao is no longer the unknown person he was a few years ago, but is now a star-studded star.

As mentioned before, after Damimi and Liu Tianxian entered movies, Fanxing TV resources gave priority to her and Guo Zhenni.

Previously, Zhao Xiaodao's "Chef Fang Carrying a Pot in the Flower Room" became a hit. In December this year, he starred in "Shanshan Is Coming", which also performed well and won the 2011 Jiangsu Province Satellite TV Ratings Championship.

Although it is still far behind Xianmi, Zhao Xiaodao has definitely grown into a representative figure of 85 Flowers.

Guo Zhenni is not willing to give in. Last year's "Cannon Fodder Counterattack 2" ranked among the top three Penguin Star online dramas in terms of playback volume and popularity. Her role as "An Xiaoniao" in the popular "The Legend of Zhen Huan" also benefited her a lot. .

Currently, the two of them also maintain a certain dominant position among the 85 flowers under Xianmi.

Zhao Xiaodao, who is more popular, is deeply involved in ancient puppet dramas. He has taken up the role of a new generation of traffic queens in the field of TV dramas with stars, following the path of Hu Jing, Fan Xiaopang and Da Mimi.

Attack popularity first, then transform.

However, Guo Zhenni has chosen a completely different path. She has a relatively low-key personality and does not like to gain traffic. Her popularity is at the bottom among the buddies at the same level, so she plans to directly transform into a powerful player.

At present, she has confirmed two crews, one is "Forty-Nine Days" adapted from "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", starring Zhang Jiayi, Yan Kuan and others.

There is also a theme-themed "Red" produced by Fanxing, in which she plays the heroine.

The other leading actors have not been decided yet. It is said that Hu Ge is wanted to star, but I don’t know what he thinks.

Unlike Xian Mi's streak of battles and wins, Hu Ge, the star brother, did not have a particularly smooth movie career.

After "Detective Dee: The Tongtian Empire" and "Let the Bullets Fly", he has not had any outstanding performance.

Last year's "Revolution of 1911" starring Cheng Long only had a little over 50 million, so that's it. Cheng Long took the blame for most of it, he was just a starring role.

However, he played a major role in the Lunar New Year this year and collaborated with Lan Xi on the romantic movie "When the Sun Is Smiling", which only grossed 36 million at the box office.

This result is indeed a bit low for a top player like Hu Ge, and it has even become a rare money-losing project for an independent film by Stars.

Especially compared to the huge hit of the Xianmi movie, Hu Ge's situation was a bit embarrassing.

It just so happens that there is currently no suitable movie project for him, so Fanxing wants Hu Ge to return to TV series first to consolidate his popularity.

Last year, several directors including producers Hou Hongliang and Kong Sheng left Shanying and formed a partnership with Fanxing to establish [Fanxing Noon Sunshine Pictures].

This independent subsidiary under Fanxing is more like a studio under Fanxing. Fanxing owns 65% of the shares and is the absolute majority shareholder.

Hou, Kong and others were given a certain amount of autonomy, but they still had to listen to Fanxing in many cases.

To put it simply, Fanxing takes the money, Noon Sunshine makes it, and then Fanxing sells it.

Although it still sounds like it is controlled by others, compared to the time of Shanying, the Noon Sunshine team has no mandatory political tasks, the creative direction is more free, Fanxing will not easily interfere, and most importantly, the team makes more money.

The reason why the sun leaves the mountain shadow at noon is largely because of money.

Although Shanying is also an enterprise, it is a state-owned enterprise after all, and we need to pay attention to the impact in many aspects. In terms of income, it is far less than what they would make if they went out alone.

At this time in the original time and space, although Noon Sunshine was established, its foundation was too shallow, there were not enough funds, and there were not enough connections, so it did not dare to leave Shanying.

Therefore, in the two years after its establishment, Noon Sunshine filmed several movies with Shanying, raising the banner of Noon Sunshine, and only after attracting financial backers, it began to take control of the project.

Even so, Sunshine at Noon kept pulling Shanying to cooperate with other companies to get the bottom line.

It wasn't until after several hits that Noon Sunshine completely established its foothold that it began to produce independently, occasionally giving up part of its share to the platform and major artists.

And Cao Xuan intercepted Hu here, directly became the sponsor of Noon Sunshine, and played the role of Shan Ying.

If you want money, you need channels. In a sense, it is even stronger than Shanying.

In terms of funds, although state-owned enterprises do not care about their own money, they still depend on performance and reports. In many cases, leaders cannot fully make the decision.

But on Fanxing's side, if Cao Xuan nods, a few hundred million is just a matter of words.

Shanying is backed by Lu Provincial Television and has a close relationship with CCTV and several other television stations.

However, Fanxing has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and has a professional team with network resources all over the country. Fanxing has enough friendships with CCTV, the five major first-tier TV stations and many second-tier TV stations.

In the borders of Shandong Province, ten stars are not as good as the shadow of a mountain, but outside of Shandong Province, the stars in the national market are not afraid of any provincial or Taiwanese company except CCTV.

And Fanxing is not bragging. In terms of business operation ability, Fanxing, a group of super elites left behind by crazy involution, is the best in the industry.

This is not to say that employees in state-owned enterprises are incompetent, but sometimes the system does have certain limitations.

Especially now in the Internet era, Fanxing has a strong network platform advantage. Penguin, Box Games, Weibo, Time.com, Media Matrix and other platform channels are working together to build momentum, and CCTV is dumbfounded.

For the same drama, if it is operated and distributed by Fanxing's team, the publicity effect and popularity can at least be raised to a higher level. The selling price can be increased by at least 20%. If done well, the price can even be increased by half, or even more.

Moreover, Fanxing also has its own online platform and has also established overseas channels. Its advertising revenue is no less than that of some TV platforms, or even slightly exceeds it.

These aspects complement each other and feedback each other, and the benefits and influence formed by a drama will be greatly enhanced.

As long as the TV series itself has quality and enough selling points, and is left to Fanxing to run it, whether it becomes a hit or not may depend on the right time and place, but it will definitely not lose money or be a hit.

In this case, it is not difficult to understand the choice of Hou, Kong and others to join Fanxing.

Although the shares are a bit small, they have not opened their eyes. How can they know the future of Noon Sunshine? 35% of the shares + normal compensation is already a very good result for these teams.

After all, you don’t have to worry about funding or publicity. You are relatively free to create and make more money.

For this group of directors and those behind the scenes, there’s no better boss in the world.

Cao Xuan is also very satisfied. In the past two years, Fanxing has been a bit too pursuing commercial development, and the proportion of main dramas has become smaller and smaller. The addition of Noon Sunshine is also a good supplement.

With the addition of the noon sun, the golden name of Starry Boutique will probably shine even brighter in the future.

On a darker note, an opponent has been eliminated in advance. Otherwise, when the sun rises at noon, it will be a big impact on Fanxing who insists on the high-quality route.

There will be a follow-up to Noon Sunshine, "Battle of Changsha", and director Kong Sheng has taken a liking to Hu Ge.

Fanxing plans to let Hu Ge choose between "Red" and "Battle of Changsha" to consolidate his popularity and reputation. The main theme evidence will also be good for his personal image.

Hu Ge is still hesitating. Compared to TV series, he definitely wants to make movies, but there are really not many good movie resources.

Although he is the number one brother in Fanxing, his ranking in movies is indeed not high. Not to mention Cao Xuan, Jiao Enjun and Huang Bo are both higher than him, and Duan Long is also a relatively strong opponent.

This is still within Fanxing. If it spreads to the entire film industry, he will have to compete with a bunch of popular niche students and big names from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

Fanxing had already given him a chance, but he failed to grasp the key.

Both he and Xian Mi were starring or supporting roles in big productions, and then they took on small production roles. Both of them became popular, and his own movie hit the market.

The entertainment industry is very realistic, especially with the increasingly fierce competition within Fanxing. Even if Hu Ge is the number one brother in the company, he has to calm down when encountering this kind of situation.

But there is no need to be discouraged by Hu Ge. After all, he is a top brother. Fanxing still attaches great importance to him. If there is a suitable role, he should still be praised.

And then again, Hu Ge is already 30 years old this year. He can also try to transform through the drama. If the transformation can be successful, it will be very beneficial for him to make TV series or movies in the future.

Hu Ge's predicament actually served as a reminder to other artists in Fanxing that not everyone has Xianmi's luck.

Luck plays a large part in their success. In 2011, the two biggest dark horses in the film market collided with each other. People in the industry joked that it was God who helped them.

Fanxing artists, who were a little impetuous at first, also began to calm down.

Zhao Xiaodao and Guo Zhenni each have different choices, and there are reasons for this.

Guo Zhenni doesn't have much ambition, so he chooses the path of a powerful faction. If he works steadily, he may become a popular and capable faction with good reputation and reputation.

Zhao Xiaodao was unwilling to be inferior to others and wanted to copy Xianmi's success, so he insisted on fighting against Gudu, preparing to accumulate popularity and then enter the film industry.

No matter what her luck is, if she doesn't give it a try, she will regret it for the rest of her life.

Hu Jing still supports Zhao Xiaodao's idea. Regardless of whether she made the right choice, the key is that the conditions for Zhao Xiaodao's transformation are not mature at this time. She just wants to be a capable actor, but her acting skills are not good enough.

………

"A Thousand Bones of Flowers" has a good cast, with Qiao Zhenyu playing the male lead, and the second female lead being Dong Xuan, the murderous sister who is the most beautiful woman in the seven realms, and Rong Xinda's Yang Yang.

There are also a few veteran drama stars, and the young roles are basically newcomers from Fanxing, such as Mao Xiaotong, Song Tie, Dili Rouba, An Ze, Sun Yanyan and others.

This kind of ancient puppet show is still very popular. If the role is good, you may become popular. If you are lucky, you may even be promoted directly.

Hu Jing did not steal the limelight. After the opening ceremony, she briefly chatted with reporters and then stepped back to leave the opportunity to the newcomers.

When she had nothing to do, she took her mobile phone and chatted with Cao Xuan on WeChat. Cao Yang could speak simply these days, but this made the Donggong Empress, a new mother, so excited that she sent hundreds of WeChat messages a day to Cao Xuan and Zeng Li. .

After the creative team finished the interview, the media left, and the scene began to be set up for filming.

Normally, the actors could hide to the side to memorize lyrics or rest and play, but today Hu Jing was here to hold the line, and several newcomers did not dare to sit down, so they huddled in the far corner and stood waiting.

Only Zhao Xiaodao, Dong Xuan, and Qiao Zhenyu, two old people from the company, were more casual and talked in front of Hu Jing.

"How's Dimple?"

"It's good. We are planning to find a kindergarten for her."

Hu Jing and Dong Xuan knew each other when they were filming "The Golden Family" and have become friends after getting along for many years.

Even though Dong Xuan left Fanxing, there was no separation. Last year, Dong Xuan and Pan Yueming gave Cao Xuan and Hu Jing special gifts for their birthdays.

As for the little dimple, it was the nickname of Dong Xuan and Pan Yueming's daughter. Hu Jing had also seen it and was quite impressed by the fair and tender little girl.

After Dong Xuan got married, her output dropped significantly, and she started to come back in the past two years. She may not have any plans to save a dowry for her daughter.

"That's great. I see that Yuan Yuan also announced her relationship with that Taiwanese actor two days ago. Those people in our company from back then basically all have partners."

Hu Jing sincerely praised that she was the first artist signed by Fanxing back then, and she watched all the subsequent artists sign in with her own eyes.

Especially Dong Xuan, Gao Yuanyuan, and Yang Xue, several artists who joined earlier. Hu Jing has a good personal relationship with them. Seeing that they are now wives and mothers, she can't help but sigh.

Dong Xuan also looked at Qiao Zhenyu with a smile. She and Qiao were old partners and had a good relationship: "How are you? Everyone is waiting for the wedding banquet?"

"I work hard to get there as soon as possible."

Qiao Zhenyu looked a little shy. As a popular niche student, Qiao Zhenyu's emotional experience is really rare and clean.

Ex-girlfriend Wang Likun dated for 8 years and made their relationship public when her career was on the rise. During this period, there were almost no scandals. Although she is an outlier in the entertainment industry, it is definitely rare.

But later, his long-distance love affair with Wang Likun fell through due to various reasons.

I just met a girl this year, who is also an actress, but not famous. It is said that the two of them are now in a stable relationship and even have plans to get married.

This is also the reason why Qiao Zhenyu has a good reputation in the circle. Both Hu and Dong have a good impression of him.

No matter when a woman is devoted to this kind of relationship, has a sense of responsibility, and falls in love with a boy who is rushing to get married, she will not feel disgusted.

Hu Jing also pulled Zhao Xiaodao to teach her that in the future, when dating, she should look for boys like Qiao Zhenyu and Pan Yueming who have clean foundations, gentle personalities and excellent reputations.

Like some playboy type, no matter how handsome you are, don't care, otherwise even if you get married, the child will have to be divorced before the age of two...

Zhao Xiaodao was thoughtful, but he didn't take it too seriously. Like Damimi, she was now more career-minded, and falling in love was not in her plan for the time being.

When Hu Jing saw her like this, she knew what was going on and couldn't help but have a headache.

I don’t know what’s going on, this group of newcomers is completely different from them back then.

At that time, among the Four Dan Shuang Bings, apart from Shuang Bing, who rose to prominence later and was therefore more career-oriented and less concerned with relationships, the other four major beauties all had their names early on.

She had been with Cao Xuan when she was in college. Zhao and Jiujiazhang had no shortage of boyfriends around them. Needless to say, Mr. Zhou had more boyfriends than the three of them.

As a result, it was the turn of these little beauties, especially Fanxing, who seemed to have no men in their eyes and focused on their careers.

It's not that this is bad, after all, the better their career is, the better it will be for the stars, but the key few little flowers are always single, which makes the Empress of the East Palace always feel that her men are not safe.

This is not unfounded by Hu Jing. She knows very well how charming Cao Xuan is.

Let's put it this way, even though she has a good relationship with Dong Xuan and Gao Yuanyuan now, this is because they are all married or married to famous beauties. Back then, these were all potential competitors.

All of them had been scrutinized and guarded against by her and Zeng Li.

Nowadays, actresses from the 70s and 80s generation have either started families or their charm has declined, so they are basically no longer a big threat.

However, those born in the 1980s, especially the 1985 generation, have become a brand new threat. The two palaces of the East and West are cultivated, and they should be guarded against in private.

Back then, my best friends in the same dormitory all snatched away my husband, not to mention teachers, students and subordinate girls.

If these 85 spend a day without settling down, the East and West Palaces will not relax their vigilance against them...

Moreover, Hu Jing also had a hunch that the post-85s generation is not the end. In the future, the two of them are likely to face the threat of the post-90s generation, or even the post-00s generation.

It is said that they both have a good life and will live a lifetime of wealth and status with Cao Xuan.

But Dongxi Ergong felt that these people only saw thieves eating meat, but did not see thieves being beaten.

Cao Xuan's wealth, appearance, power, temperament, and fame are what countless women dream of.

From their contemporaries, those born in the 1970s, to their daughters’ generation born in the 2000s, there may also be granddaughters born in the 10s and 20s in the future. Even when Cao Xuan was young, there were some older sisters who were born in the 50s and 60s who coveted them.

It is no exaggeration to say that the two of them are going up against more than half a century of actresses and women.

This kind of long-term pressure and vigilance is not something that ordinary people can bear. Even if the two houses of the East and West join forces, it can only be said to be struggling to support it, grasping the big and letting go of the small.

It’s okay to hunt for wild food occasionally. Those who want to be on top must fight to death...

Zhao Xiaodao didn't expect that Sister Jing was already thinking about her, otherwise she would have been so scared that she couldn't sleep at night.

To say that she has no thoughts about Cao Xuan, she doesn't believe it herself. Probably less than 15% of the female stars in the entire entertainment industry have no thoughts about Cao Xuan. Of course, most of them are just for sex.

Zhao Xiaodao is no exception. Let's not talk about whether there is a chance. The key point is that she doesn't have the courage now.

Compared with falling in love, she is more willing to care about Xianmi and those 85 flower competitors, especially the strong Liu Shishi.

Guo Zhenni is not popular enough and has started to transform again. There is no direct conflict with her for the time being. However, Liu Shishi, who has become very popular after "Bu Bu Jing Xin", is her biggest rival. The two are in direct competition this year.

2012 Golden Eagle Goddess!

This award has been awarded four times since 2004, namely to Hu Jing, Liu Tianxian, Damimi and Wang Luodan.

The top three are all top actresses in the industry, and the worst Wang Luodan is also a serious and popular star, wandering between the first and second tier.

In particular, Liu Tianxian and Damimi both rose to prominence after being named the Golden Eagle Goddess. Invisibly, they also gave this Golden Eagle Goddess a special meaning.

Whoever is the Golden Eagle Goddess will be the next super top actress!

Xian Mi, who has already won the title of goddess, will not be eliminated. Zhao Xiaodao has a great advantage, but Liu Shishi is not bad either. He is even in the first place because of the hit "Bu Bu Jing Xin".

It just so happens that "Bu Bu Jing Xin" is broadcast on Hunan Satellite TV. Even if Tang Dynasty is far less powerful than Fan Xing, with this support, there is no need to worry about being publicized by Fan Xing.

So this is likely to be the first close competition in the Golden Eagle Goddess selection.

Zhao Xiaodao and Liu Shishi, the plastic sisters in "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", are most likely to be at odds with each other because of this Golden Eagle Goddess selection.

At the same time, it also means that after Xianmi, other 85 flowers have also begun to land on the Chinese stage of the entertainment industry...
