Entertainment Empire System

Chapter 261 Li Yu’s helplessness

Ye Ming's words obviously won the favor of the princess. At that moment, the princess said proudly: "Emotions, Ye Ming is right. This is not on the stage, can it be so serious? It is just an occasional relaxation. It's just a matter of mood. How about it, Ye Ming, you can come over and play a few games. This mahjong game was brought from Tokyo. It's quite interesting."

There is nothing wrong with playing mahjong. The princess's hobby is actually playing mahjong. Even when she met Li Yapeng later, it was because of the introduction between friends that several people played mahjong together, which led to a marriage. The princess has a very classic saying: "I admit that I am not good at singing, but I admit that I am not good at playing mahjong." 】From this sentence, we can see the princess's strong self-confidence, the kind of self-confidence that looks down on all living beings. Ye Ming sat aside and said with a smile: "The procedures are still a bit old-fashioned. If I want to play mahjong, I still like to find someone to play. Sister Fei, you can play by yourself."

The princess did not turn her eyes away at this time, but said in a loud voice: "There is no one today, Sun Nan is also out. Forget it, if I have time in the morning, I will find you to join in. I'm here, don't say you're not free when the time comes." Having said this, it is obvious that the distance between the two people seems to have become much closer. If they have common hobbies, then in a situation like this Naturally, it will be easier to have a common language. Ye Ming also said without politeness at all: "Well, as long as I am in the capital, there will be no problem." The princess seemed to have thought of something and said: "Your sister came to you to take on a big job, what's the matter? You discuss it and I’ll continue.”

This means sending Ye Ming away directly. Anyway, Ye Ming was not regarded as an outsider, so he was not polite at all. Na Ying said with a smile: "Let me tell you, Ye Ming. In fact, this is Annan, a city in the south, but it is sponsored by a winery. It is rich and wealthy, and the remuneration is also quite good. Not only does it have a beloved concubine, Me, and Ren Xianqi, who went to the Spring Festival Gala with you, if you come, they promise to give you 80,000 yuan. Isn’t this a good price?"

Ye Ming did not say what the price of the princess and Na Ying was. This is the rule of the industry. You cannot casually inquire about the remuneration for this kind of performance, even if you are an acquaintance.

Of course, Na Ying, a character with acupoint status, naturally knows Ye Ming's price. Ye Ming was also moved at this time, nodded and said: "Eighty thousand, for two shows, is almost enough for me to act in a movie. Sure enough, singing is not an ordinary way to make money. It's a good price to say the least. "

But even though Ye Ming said this, even the princess could tell that Ye Ming was not very satisfied with such a price.

At this time, Na Ying said as an old-timer: "You, you think so well. Do you know how many people in the country have the same price as you? Moreover, singers of our level are always It’s considered good if you encounter this kind of job twice a year. It’s not as easy to make money as you think. Most of today’s singers still make money by holding concerts and releasing albums.”

Ye Ming is also very emotional about this. In a few years, releasing albums will no longer be considered profitable. At that time, online songs were the craziest era. Because Huihuang Film and Television doesn't have much money anymore, so if you can make some money by cheating, that's a good income.

However, the price is still somewhat different from Ye Ming's imagination. At this time, Ye Ming thought for a while and said: "Sister, tell the truth. You and Sister Fei are not easy to hire. The first thing I don’t believe is the lack of money. I’m afraid it’s just that money.”

At this time, Na Ying nodded and said: "That's right, this is exactly the second thing I told you. In fact, this concert was not invited by ordinary people. The great director Li Yu was behind it. Although it was said that others had invited The price is not too high, but it is quite a favor to be able to get director Li Eu to come forward. Originally, I thought you might not be able to go, but I think, if there is director Li Eu If you want to save face, you are more likely to succeed in something like this."

Ye Ming said curiously: "Director Li Yu, you are indeed right. I am going to film a film directed by Li. Since that sister said it to such an extent, I will still give it to that sister." This is face-saving."

It was said that he had Li Yu's face, but since it was Na Ying who was responsible for delivering the message, it was natural that he had Na Ying's face. If Ye Ming refused, he would not give Na Ying face. Hearing this, Na Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are so interesting. It's done. Let's go together on the flight at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Back at the company, Sister Fang Fang heard that Ye Ming actually said that the performance fee for taking such a job was only 80,000 yuan, and she was immediately unhappy: "Tell me, what kind of behavior do you think you are doing? You are the same no matter what. The singer who won the title of king in the first battle, the first person of the new generation. With such an identity, plus having appeared in two Spring Festival Galas, the Golden Horse Best Actor, although his background may not be as good as those of the kings and queens, but in such a situation In one case, you are a first-line star no matter what. If you accept such a price, it is too cheap. Big names have the courage of big names, and they cannot be accepted in any performance. Otherwise, Who will ask you to perform in the future?"

Regarding this point, what Sister Fang Fang said is not wrong. Big names do have the status of big names, and it does not mean that they can be hired just because they have money, such as Cheng Long, Wang Fei, Zhang Xueyou and other such kings and queens. , usually only those high-end performances can be invited. Otherwise, even if they are paid, the princess and the others may not be able to go. The performance level is not enough. If the king and queen go there, they will lose their worth.

This is also an unspoken rule in the entertainment industry. This is why the king singers may not have two commercial performances a year. Even if they hold their own concerts, they are always in big cities, especially Beijing and Shanghai. First-tier cities, at least Nanjing and Chongqing, are the first choice. Of course, it's hard to say what happened to Yang Sanjilang later.

For example, if a queen of the level of a princess participates in twenty or thirty commercial performances a year, is she still worth a queen? it's out of the question.

Therefore, big names always have big-name standards. It is not a performance of the same level, and generally they will not participate.

When she heard that it was Director Li Eu's invitation, Sister Fang Fang said nothing more. After Ye Ming and the other three arrived in Annan, they were picked up by a black extended version of Rolls-Royce. This luxury car alone can reflect how grand the owner is.

At this time, Annan Pearl Bay Hotel, as half the host, Li Yu held a banquet to receive the singers in the Pearly Hall. After Ye Ming entered the hall, he immediately said that he felt that a place like this was indeed worthy of its name. In the Pearly Hall, Pearl decorations can be seen almost everywhere in the entire hall. The waiter who guided Ye Ming said: "This pearly hall is the largest pearl hall in the country. The decoration of the entire hall is made of 123,000 natural pearls. , because our Annan is famous for our pearls, and since ancient times, the world’s pearls have come from Annan’s beautiful jade.”

Gorgeous, full of intoxicating light, like a dream kingdom-like scene, the colorful dream seems to have become a reality at this moment.

After Ye Ming saw it, he also took a breath of cold air. This pearl hall could only be built in a pearl producing area like Annan.

As expected, Director Li Yu saw Ye Ming from the assistant seat and greeted him with a smile: "Ye Ming, I'm very happy that you can come. I originally wanted to call you in person, but I didn't expect that Ying The lady said that we are friends with you, so we just found you together. Let me introduce to you. The person sitting in the main supporting position is Mr. Xu, the host this time. This performance is actually because of Mr. Xu. It was his father's 90th birthday. Mr. Xu wanted to celebrate his father's birthday, so he had this performance. This time, all the tickets were not sold and were given to the folks in Annan. This is Mr. Xu's filial piety. .”

At this time, Mr. Xu, who was sitting in the host's seat, said: "My ancestor was the leader of a theater troupe in Annan. Once, after selling tickets and collecting money, the devils came and the play was not completed. The whole troupe was crawling He ran away as soon as he got on the train. My father was only in his teens at the time, but he deeply remembered one thing. He owed a big drama to the people of Annan. In fact, I would invest in Annan every year. Pearl Literary Gala, but this time, my father celebrates his 90th birthday, and I want to fulfill one of his wishes, that is, our Xu family will pay for it ourselves, and give it to the people of Annan and my fellow villagers to watch a great show."

After dinner, Li Yu invited Ye Ming to take a car with him to the performance venue. In the car, Li Yu said earnestly: "Ye Ming, you must think why I, a film director, would get involved in a person who loses his function like singing. Come up top?"

Ye Ming was really a little doubtful about this question, and he thought about it before saying: "According to your status in the entertainment industry, Director Li, there is no need to get involved in such a matter, but since you are here, Director , I guess there must be a compelling reason, and this may not be something you are willing to do."

Li Yu nodded at this time and said: "That's right, this is not my original intention, but people in the world can't help themselves. Everyone knows that I am going to film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", but behind the scenery, there is Who knows how sad I am, I don’t have that much money, and this Mr. Xu is one of the investors of the film, and one of the main investors. Tell me, his request is just that, can I not agree to it?" (To be continued)
