Bright Era of China Entertainment

Chapter 94 The New Year

Chu Xuan was originally at school, Huang Bo was still immersed in a trick life and couldn't extricate himself, Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin went home separately due to the holiday.

In this way, he is the only one in the dormitory.

Although today is New Year's Eve, he has long been used to this kind of life alone.

In other words, he doesn't pay much attention to these solar term days.

However, since falling in love with Concubine Liu Yi, he has slowly learned to value these days.

Concubine Liu Yi has the romance that Concubine Liu Yi wants, so he naturally has to find a way to think of something romantic.

However, Concubine Liu Yi couldn't go out at night, and he had no choice. Although it was a pity, as he said in the text message he sent to Concubine Liu Yi, the days to come would be long.

But under such circumstances, Wang Jinhua took the initiative to invite Chu Xuan to her home for the New Year's Eve.

At first Chu Xuan was very embarrassed. The whole family was together, so what was he going to do as an outsider?
But Wang Jinhua personally came to pick him up at the school gate, so he had no choice but to come to the door with the cheek.

What Wang Jinhua did made Chu Xuan's heart warm, and it also made Chu Xuan understand why so many artists are willing to follow Wang Jinhua.

Such a person, with a rock-like heart, will also be moved.

On the dining table, there were seven hot dishes in a circle, including hard dishes, side dishes and chicken soup, all of which were delicious in color, fragrance and taste.

No matter how much Wang Jinhua takes care of her family, sometimes business matters will make her come back late.

With Dong Zijian growing up at home, Dong Zhihua, as a father, will naturally take good care of his son, and it is normal for him to be a good cook.

Dong Zijian was so hungry that he ate hungrily.

Dong Zhihua poured a glass of wine for Wang Jinhua and Chu Xuan, and also for himself.

Wang Jinhua and Chu Xuan chatted while eating.

"Do you know how much I spent on marketing for you?"

"How many?"

The three clinked glasses and took a sip, Wang Jinhua said with a light smile, "400 million."

Chu Xuan raised his eyebrows, this number is a bit huge for the current economic environment, he said: "Including Zhang Jizhong's side, and the investor side of "Male Talents and Women's Appearance", then this marketing will be at least tens of millions .”

Wang Jinhua nodded: "Their purpose is to promote their drama, and mine is to promote you. Although the purpose is different, the scope of joint marketing includes you, which is similar to what you said. In order to market you, we three parties It cost tens of millions. It’s just that I represent Huayi alone to promote you, and it cost 400 million.”

Chu Xuan nodded, expressing his understanding.

Wang Jinhua also said: "The company invested 300 million in "Male Talents and Female Appearance", which accounted for almost 20% of the investment share. Adding the 400 million in marketing, a total of 700 million was spent for you. But based on the current ratings of "Male Talent and Female Appearance" If the rate has already broken 10, including the follow-up carousel revenue, under the financial estimate, the copyright fee alone can earn at least 2000 million, not counting the sponsorship fee and advertiser cooperation costs. We only spent 700 million, and the company earned big."

Chu Xuan took a bite of the food and said, "Some people in the company don't have any objections to me, do they?"

Wang Jinhua smiled when she heard the words, and said: "With this achievement, the shareholders who had objections to me and you because of my early marketing to you really have nothing to say. However, "Male Talent and Female Appearance" is a TV series, in which The income should be taxed, and the financial planning needs to be coordinated, which takes some time, and the company also needs a charter to distribute the money, and it is not possible to transfer the money to the account immediately when there is a profit."

Chu Xuan nodded slightly, expressing his understanding.

Wang Jinhua picked up the bowl and took a sip of the chicken soup, looked at Chu Xuan and said, "In order to prevent some idlers from gossiping, I have accepted an endorsement and print advertisement for you in advance."

"Idlers..." Chu Xuan couldn't help laughing.

A smile appeared on Wang Jinhua's face, and said: "Some people in the company are short-sighted, and I am really angry when I talk to them. At the beginning, I marketed you in advance as if the company was losing money. Everyone looked at me and I didn't look good. Now With achievements, they changed their faces again, and everyone said good things."

As she said that, Wang Jinhua glanced at Chu Xuan and said, "Tell me, what's the point of dealing with such people? Only look at the present, not the future."

Chu Xuan smiled, and kept silent. It's not easy for him to intervene in such words.

In the next moment, Wang Jinhua said: "But I'm in charge of my job. I'm still the president of Huayi, so naturally I have to think about the company. Originally, it would be best to get you an endorsement after the end of "Male Talent and Female Appearance" Timing, but one is to prove your market value to those in the company, and the other is to take you to Xiangjiang for an audition on January 1th, and the time is too late, so I accepted an endorsement for you in advance."

Chu Xuan understood, lowered his head and ate a mouthful of chicken wings, and asked, "What endorsement? When do you need me to be in place?"

Hearing Chu Xuan's question, Wang Jinhua said: "When you became popular, almost when "Tian Long Ba Bu" started broadcasting, some partners called me to talk about endorsement, but it was too early at that time. Of course it won't be considered."

Wang Jinhua continued: "Later, more and more calls were made from partners. After screening by Tian Zhen and I, we finally selected two endorsements that both I and she recognized."

"Two endorsements?" Chu Xuan smiled and said, "Then what did you choose in the end, or who did you and Tian Zhen finally listen to?"

Wang Jinhua smiled: "Of course I listened to me. Tian Zhen chose a yogurt endorsement, 100 million a year; I chose a clothing endorsement plus print ads, also 100 million a year."

Chu Xuan raised his smiling face and said, "If it were me, I would choose the same as your sister. You must be cautious about what you eat and endorse these products. If something happens, I will be very difficult to be the spokesperson. Spokespersons are luxury clothes. products, there is not so much trouble, and there is not so much to worry about."

"That's right, I think the same." Wang Jinhua raised his glass.

Chu Xuan picked up the wine glass and clinked a glass with Wang Jinhua, and made a toast with Dong Zhihua, and the three of them drank another glass.

Wang Jinhua put down the wine glass, and said: "The endorsement cooperation has been negotiated, and the partner's company is in the capital, which is very convenient. On January 1, Tian Zhen will take you to the appointment to shoot a TV commercial for the endorsement, and another set The photos were used as a print advertisement, and it took about a week to complete."

As he said that, Wang Jinhua said again: "The endorsement fee of 100 million a year has already entered the first line. But there is also a gap in the first line. Actors such as Zhao Wei, Lin Xinru, Zhang Guoli, Li Yuqiang and Teacher Chen Daoming, the endorsement fee is almost Much higher, singers such as Fei Xiang, Dao Lang, Wang Hao, their endorsement fees are also sky-high. So don't be proud, you are still far behind them."

Chu Xuan nodded.

There is indeed a gap between the front lines, and the gap between some artists is not small.

As for the definition of an artist's status by several lines and lines, it is only a vague concept.

This kind of appellation is just a positioning based on market popularity and commercial value.

For example, those older generation actors and powerful actors who focus on filming, there is no such thing as first-line or second-line between them.

Therefore, just listen to the lines and lines, and don't have to be too serious.

Chu Xuan was deeply convinced of this.

But at this time, Dong Zijian looked like a little adult, picked up a glass of orange juice, and said with a smile: "Little Brother Chu, I respect you."

Chu Xuan was stunned, and raised his wine glass with a smile: "Why do you respect me?"

Dong Zijian smiled unabated, and said crisply: "I heard from my father that my mother has been worrying about you these days. Every night when I go home, I just stare at the computer to look at the data, and then write and draw until the early morning before going to bed. I When I got up, my mother went to work, and when my mother came back at night, I fell asleep again. Now, you are hot, and my mother has time to spend with me."

Chu Xuan's heart was shocked, and he was speechless. After a moment of silence, he clinked a glass with Dong Zijian and drank it down.

Then, Chu Xuan picked up the baijiu and filled the wine dispenser with two taels of wine, he picked it up and saluted Wang Jinhua, saying: "Sister, I respect you, don't drink it, I'm done. "

After finishing speaking, Chu Xuan couldn't help saying that he directly drank the two liang of wine in the wine dispenser.

Wang Jinhua was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Dong Zijian. She felt amused by what Chu Xuan said for her son, but felt a little guilty for her son.

But when Wang Jinhua saw Chu Xuan finish the wine in a wine dispenser in one gulp, Wang Jinhua felt relieved again.

Wang Jinhua didn't let Chu Xuan drink alone, she picked up the wine glass and smiled at Chu Xuan: "Come on, student Chu Xuan, I wish you a bright future."

Dong Zhihua also picked up his wine glass and added: "Xiaoxuan, I wish you a bright future."

Chu Xuan smiled when he heard the words, picked up the wine glass and drank it down with the two of them.

Just a glass of wine.

Wang Jinhua picked up the topic just now and continued: "I will go to Xiangjiang for an audition on January 1th, and I will give you the character script later. The role I set for you is [Guan], and there are also some stories about "New Police Story" on the Internet. Outline publicity, do you know this character?"

Chu Xuan thought for a while, and said: "I know, the super villain, who specializes in killing the police. I want to fight against the character of Brother Chenglong and a character named [Zheng]. If the audition is successful, then I will fight against the two of them alone." Match."

Wang Jinhua nodded: "Not only that, [Guan] has a dual personality. When depressed, he looks like a depression patient. When he is cruel, he can brutally kill his girlfriend and brother. This role is more difficult than Murong Fu's." Too much, after all, it is an urban movie, and the audience has a natural sense of substitution. And a movie lasts for one or two hours, and every frame and every second reflects the acting skills. If the acting is not good, the audience will make a show."

Wang Jinhua said again: "However, although this role requires a high level of acting skills, I believed in you, and Chenglong and Chen Musheng pushed me hard at the time, so I finally chose this role. Although it is difficult to play, if you Well done, and the benefits you get when the movie comes out are not small."

Wang Jinhua raised her wine glass and said, "Are you confident to win this role?"

The corner of Chu Xuan's mouth curled up into a smile, he raised his wine glass and touched it, and said, "I will do my best."

Because we ate too late for a meal, we chatted while drinking, and it was almost 12 o'clock in the evening.

Chu Xuan, Wang Jinhua, Dong Zhihua, and Dong Zijian were all waiting for the New Year's Eve. After all, it only happens once a year, which has special significance. Wang Jinhua also allowed Dong Zijian to go to bed later.

However, just as the New Year's Eve was approaching, Chu Xuan's phone rang.

……

the other side.

Concubine Liu Yi was wearing a fluffy purple pajamas. She was standing in front of the window on the balcony in the bedroom, holding the phone in her right hand by her ear.

There are very few stars tonight, only two bright ones.

These two single bright stars, in the endless darkness, are bright and dazzling.

Near the early hours of the morning, the community was quiet at night, and there were occasional insects chirping.

Concubine Liu Yi was in such an environment, while waiting for the call to connect, she raised her head to appreciate the beauty of the two stars in the sky, with a smile in her eyes.

The next moment, the phone was connected.

"You haven't slept yet?"

Suddenly hearing Chu Xuan's voice, Concubine Liu Yi's heart surged with warmth, she looked up at the stars without moving her eyes, it was the cardamom girl bathed in the cold moonlight full of nostalgia.

She parted her pink lips slightly, and said, "I can't sleep, it's almost New Year's Eve."

"Well, there is one minute left."

Concubine Liu Yi said quietly: "Shall we do a countdown?"

"Countdown to New Year's Eve?"

Concubine Liu Yi gave a soft "hmm", maybe because she was too focused on looking at the stars that seemed to be close together in the sky, she couldn't help but murmured: "I think, even though we are not together today, this look is very romantic, isn't it?" ?"

"Seven seconds left."

Hearing this sentence, Concubine Liu Yi's eyes immersed in the stars suddenly became clear. She raised her hand and looked at her watch, and said with a light smile, "There are still 10 seconds."

"3 seconds." The two said in unison.

Such a tacit understanding made Concubine Liu Yi smile sweetly.

"2 seconds."

The new year is approaching, Concubine Liu Yi's heart is tense, and there is an inexplicable passion.

"1 seconds."

With a sound of "chirp--", blossoms of light rose from the black sky. These lights reached a certain height, and with a "snap", they scattered like catkins like neon, colorful.

This is fireworks.

Concubine Liu Yi looked around, and said with a frown: "Brother Xuan, happy new year."

"Happy New Year."

As soon as Chu Xuan's voice on the other end of the phone fell, he asked again: "What wishes do you have for the new year?"

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Yi pondered for a moment, and then she said like Yan Ruoyan: "I hope my boyfriend will be promoted every step of the way, how about you?"

The other end of the phone paused for a while, and then Chu Xuan's voice came.

"I hope my girlfriend is happy every day and her acting skills are getting better and better."

Hearing this, Concubine Liu Yi smiled and said: "I also hope that the relationship between my boyfriend and his girlfriend will get better and better. There will be no quarrels, no disputes, no estrangement, no unhappiness, and always be sweet."

"I also hope that my girlfriend and her boyfriend will be full of laughter and laughter every day, not worrying about career, not being tied down by mundane things, not being troubled by relationship, not worrying about relatives, and always being pure and flawless."

Concubine Liu Yi suddenly smiled happily, but stopped talking.

She felt that some words were more appropriate and sweeter.

She also felt that if she said something else in these words, it might spoil the sweet mood.

Just like she was immersed in the two stars in the sky just now, at first they were bright and dazzling, but because of Chu Xuan's existence, now they are ordinary and unremarkable.

Therefore, Concubine Liu Yi decided not to say any more, and wanted to end this beauty, and perhaps have a deeper memory of this in the future.

"Good night."

"Good night."

　It was originally planned to be put on the shelves today, but was rejected by the editor, saying that he had arranged a recommendation for the book.

I made an inference last week. I thought I hadn’t recommended it before it was put on the shelves. I didn’t think the editor was so helpful, so I arranged for this book again.

Thanks to [Huya] my sister.

Then, the launch can only be postponed.

Just in time, I can save some more manuscripts.

Friends, don't scold me, it's the editor who doesn't allow it to be put on the shelves.

Finally, please follow up, thank you.
