Comeback [entertainment]

"...The XX manager of Mingcheng Film and Television came to me several times a month. Mr. Yuan's studio was kind to me, and I didn't want to leave at first. But when we met for the last time, XX manager told me that the studio got into trouble with me. big trouble……"

Assistant Mu bent down and looked at Matthew's self-report, which was the most popular in the past few days on the screen, and couldn't help but tsk.Many people are speculating whether this article was written by the team or by Matthew himself. If it is the latter, then Matthew has a good literary talent among many stars in the entertainment industry.The tone of this article is very calm, but the writing style is outstanding, and the key points of the article are also found to satisfy the public's desire for voyeurism.What news do ordinary people like to watch?It is nothing more than the grievances of the upper class, male robbers and female prostitutes, which are very far away and out of reach on weekdays.This kind of characteristic will not change in another 100 years from ancient times to the present, and every word of Matthew is desperately guiding the audience's thinking towards "that".

Why did Yuanshang studio get into big trouble, what did the manager of the famous city film and television xx tell the inside story very carefully and mysteriously, and so on, etc., desperately trying to explain the reason why he left Yuanshang studio to the word "unavoidable". pull.

A little secretary in the office who seemed to be paying attention to the whole development said: "When Matthew left before, he was scolded miserably on the Internet, and he had to leave under that kind of pressure. I thought that Mingcheng would benefit him a lot. .It didn’t take long before he actually issued such a statement with his real name publicly, and it also involved the proposal of this year’s conference... Isn’t he afraid of breaking the taboo?”

Another secretary smiled and replied: "What taboo? When will it be this time? Matthew has not seen him participate in any activities since he terminated the contract. I guess he saw that the famous city painting cake lied to him. He has no future and no reputation. , can he come out and fight?"

Assistant Mu just listened, and clicked the mouse on the home page. Seeing the political reports that appeared on the hot list that should have been dominated by fashion and entertainment news in the past few days, the rate of appearance had suddenly increased, and looked at the date in the lower right corner of the computer.

That's right, it's that time of the year again when all the major powers dance wildly to draft their own bills.

After all, it is a modern society, the Internet is developing rapidly, and the energy of public opinion is becoming stronger and more direct. Countless people want to use this power to achieve their wishes.There are too many people like this, and the forces will become intricate, check and balance each other and suppress each other. On the contrary, a delicate balance will be formed in the past few months——

All kinds of flowers are blooming, and any topic that is usually unspoken can be put on the table at this time.

The secretaries were still discussing eagerly. It was rare for Assistant Mu not to control their chats during working hours. He left his office and entered Qin Huo's office.

Qin Huo was on the phone, his voice was cold and steady: "...Okay, I will ask my assistant to send you the contract later."

After hanging up the phone, Qin Huo raised his head quietly: "Is it done?"

"Yes." Assistant Mu replied succinctly, and then commented with a little irony, "This Matthew is simply a model of stealing chickens without losing money. Mr. Yuan's original folk song route has been cleared for him. Can't survive the month-long test period, and even believed the nonsense of Mingcheng Film and Television, doesn't he usually look at the resources of the singers under Mingcheng Film and Television?"

Just looking at the "forced" music artists under Mingcheng Film and Television, you can know how much Song Tian doesn't value "word-of-mouth". Let alone Matthew, even if Mingcheng is really as promised in the previous If you spend so much money to promote it, it is inevitable that the final product will not have the quality of the original studio.

They don’t charge a penny, and spend a few months laying the foundation, teaching, and consolidating the singing conditions for upcoming artists.

And the other, plagiarism, hype, buying drafts, misappropriating money, is not even willing to pay for the cost of hiring a big-name team to write songs and arrange music.

Qin Huo snorted coldly when he heard the words, there will never be a shortage of people who only value profit in this market.Just like when Matthew left before, when the public opinion was in an uproar, there were many voices speculating that he was about to become popular.For an artist, being popular is everything, no one pays attention to second- and third-line talkers who are out of breath, but big-name superstars are even taken care of by people who fart.

As for right and wrong, it is no longer in the dictionary of many adults who only look at benefits.

On the contrary, he was a little grateful for Matthew's philistinism and short-sightedness. If he hadn't left Yuanshang studio at the most difficult time and attracted a lot of attention, if he hadn't been deceived by Famous City Film and Television and lost hope, how could he have relied on that little benefit Buying, and setting up a model that ignites public anger?

The content of Matthew's article seems to be justifying himself, but in fact the content contained in it is too meaningful.Of course, this can't be written by himself. Qin Huo asked the copywriting team of Sihai to work for three full days to produce such a high-quality product. All kinds of mysterious "insider" attract.

When Matthew left Yuanshang's studio, many people who scolded him for being ungrateful for profit thought it was Mingcheng's revenge on Yuanshang after losing the lawsuit.

But now the inside story is far more than that simple, and it also involves several major proposals that have been hot recently. For a while, even many eyes who don't pay attention to the news of the entertainment industry have been attracted.The speculations and discussions of countless ordinary netizens turned against the sky, but in fact, this was not the focus of Qin Huo's provocation.

The phone rang, and Qin Huo connected. The other party was an old director who had worked with the Four Seas Group on many films. Although he has semi-retired now, he still has a good influence in the Northwest director circle.

"Director Qin! You are fighting for all the producers in the circle! Although my strength is meager, if you need it, you can speak up, it is my duty!"

In the shopping malls, no one can dominate by one family. The Four Seas Group can't do it, and of course Famous City can't.

The new law that Li Minde's students are working hard to promote is not only about plagiarism, but also a very detailed plan for the current phenomenon of frequent online piracy in China.This is undoubtedly a serious problem that producers have been hanging on their chests for a long time. If it can be adopted, the development of the domestic cultural production circle will undoubtedly usher in a new atmosphere.

This is a good thing that everyone in the industry applauds!As a film and television production company, it is impossible for Mingcheng to not be intruded by piracy, but it joined forces with two other large companies to take the lead in opposing it. The reason is that the benefits brought to them by market chaos are far greater than those after rectification.

The infringement of Mingcheng, the infringement of Tianwang, and the infringement of Universal Times.

Once the copyright regulations are perfected and piracy is suppressed, they will also usher in these long-standing disputes and lawsuit frenzy!

And most of those fans who support them regardless of everything are like this, those who made their fortunes from gun version movies, copyright-free film and television dramas, and infringing music...just look at those overseas areas where the laws are perfect, like them, they rely on selling other people's works for a living How cautious their peers are is enough to make them hate everyone who wants to take away their interests.

Song Tian and the others cooperated with these people, undoubtedly dancing on the tip of a knife.Regarding their behavior, some in the circle are afraid to speak out due to various reasons, some are insensitive and unkind, some have nothing to do with it, and there are some who are overbearing and too much is worse than less. But at the same time, there will be no shortage of angry and confrontational voices!

Cutting off one's wealth is like killing one's parents, people on Song Tian's side think so, and vice versa!

Unlike those little people who dare not speak out and feel that they have nothing to do with them, most of them are unknown and have no direct interest in copyright. Those who really hate this way are usually those who are directly linked to the final profit.

Directors, producers, investment companies, independent big-name superstars, etc., etc., most of these people have already achieved success and fame, and they no longer need to be under the control of any corporate contract, the tyranny of a famous city?Who is afraid of that? !They are not those little stars who rely on others to eat, so if they feel uncomfortable, they can just point their noses and scold them!

There is an unspoken rule of pretending to be friendly in the mall. It is okay to poach each other once in a while, but if you do it too much, you will be regarded as a public enemy of your peers.

Four Seas has developed in a regular manner over the years, and does not easily provoke conflicts, but occasionally sees well-developed artists from other companies, and it must be false to say that they are not envious.

Now and with the contradictions that follow, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to absorb new blood.

Since Song Tian flirts first, he shouldn't have any position to accuse the Four Seas Group of taking advantage of the fire.

*******

When Jiang Xie saw that blog post, he was stunned for more than a few seconds.

The manager chattered endlessly about the postponement of the album release date, and complained that he went to Song Dong to intercede and was not interviewed. Jiang Xie couldn't listen to a word, and his eyes only flicked between paragraphs and paragraphs.From childhood to adulthood, he didn't read books so fast even when taking reading comprehension exams, but now he quickly realized between the lines that the "gossip" he had heard before had come true.

Netizens in countless comments and retweets have begun to brainstorm how Song Tian and the others will deal with Yuanshang Studio. A large group of giants in the film and television industry formed an alliance with Famous City Film and Television. The size of Yuanshang Studio is as small as a chicken, and it doesn't take much effort to pinch it to death.

Condemning, condemning, scolding, criticizing, the names of singer-songwriters who should be familiar in the forwarding list, who should have been wise and safe, stuck deeply into Jiang Xie's eyes.

"Tell me, why have so many things happened recently? Who did you offend? The son of a bitch actually went to sue Dong Song..."

"And you, how many times have I told you that you can eat and talk nonsense, do you have any thoughts that you can't keep in your heart? Do you have to say it and get caught?"

"I've been talking about it for so long, but you're squeamish. The album has been recorded, and the promotion has been released long ago. If it's delayed, everyone will have to drink the Northwest Wind!"

"You have to find a chance to meet Song Dong and explain, don't be childish, you are no longer a child!"

"Why are you so focused!"

The other party leaned over and glanced at the computer screen while nagging, and immediately slapped him on the shoulder resentfully: "You still have the heart to read this? Those comments on the Internet don't matter! How can you do it if you don't think about it carefully?" Hong Chengtian reads gossip all the time, is just pinching each other with neuropathy, you... Hey!!"

Jiang Xie stood up with a whoosh, condescendingly, his gaze fell deeply on his face.

He looks like a delinquent boy, and every time he does this gesture, it's really scary.The manager took two steps back, lost his voice for a moment, and stammered, "You...what are you going to do?"

Jiang Xie fished it out, picked up the guitar hanging on the wall, stuffed it into the guitar bag, put it on his back, turned around and walked towards the door.

The agent chased after him and asked, "Hey! What are you doing?! I've already found out that Director Song will come to the company in the afternoon, you..."

"Bang" sound.

Before he could finish speaking, the door slammed shut without hesitation.

*******

If it is said that most of the supporters gathered by the Four Seas Group came for profit, then the situation on the side of Yuanshang is completely different.

When Matthew's article tried to whitewash himself, he also unreservedly described the reasons why Yuanshang was targeted.Now he is not a little star without influence. The previous lawsuit with Mingcheng Film and Television and the subsequent establishment of the foundation have attracted him an unknown number of fans in the creative industry.

Among these people, although there are not many big hits, there are not many sincere ones.Even though they knew that the entertainment industry was deep and dangerous, they still couldn't bear it after seeing such unbridled malicious oppression.They didn't have the ability to help Yuan Shang, and realized that the studio's biggest problem now was the lack of newcomers, so they came to the door with full of enthusiasm and brought their own contracts.

One person, two people, three people, countless people...

The power of young people who have hope for the future and society is boundless. Although these people are young, they may not be without talent.The staff of the studio were still disappointed by Matthew's departure, so they turned their heads and got up without touching the ground. Recently, when they opened their eyes, they were going to the assessment interview. Vibrant and full of vitality, who would remember who left?

Matthew?Who is that?The appearance is almost blurred!

Yuanshang opened the third volume of resumes in his hand. These days, the studio can even welcome more than 17 interviewers. The age composition ranges from 30 to [-] years old. Most of them are good seedlings with infinite possibilities in the future.Moreover, these young people who voluntarily come to apply for a contract are not simple roles. Most of them have skills, so they have the confidence and strength to volunteer.There are those who are good at piano, violin, cello, drum, orchestra and various musical instruments, some are good at dancing and have excellent flexibility and coordination, some are very beautiful and handsome, and they are eye-catching at a glance. The top students praised by the teacher, and several original singers with different styles and unconventional paths, are so inspiring that Yuanshang feels like a spring breeze when he sees the works.

A blessing in disguise.

Standing in the corner and watching the turbulent crowds coming and going in the reception area of ​​the studio, this word could only pop out of Yuanshang's mind at this time.

The longings and hopes in the eyes of these young people are like a heavy burden on Yuanshang's shoulders, making him feel unspeakably at ease while bearing the pressure.

They are all... the bright future of the entertainment industry...

A child with sharp eyes spotted him standing in the shadows from the corner of his eye, a blank expression flashed across his face, and then he yelled in surprise——

"Teacher Yuan!"

"Ah, it's really Teacher Yuan!"

"Teacher Yuan is here!!! Teacher Yuan is here!!!"

"Mr. Yuanshang!!!! I saw Mrs. Yuanshang!!!!!!"

The young man didn't know the rules of the workplace, and seeing that he didn't have a sense of distance from the boss all the time, they all rushed up, with immature faces full of awe and joy, twittering and scrambling to confess——

"Mr. Yuan, I am your fan and I especially admire you!!!"

"Mr. Yuan, our whole family can sing your "CHANGE"!!!"

"Mr. Yuan, I bought more than ten copies of the "Beginning" album, and put them all on the bookshelf at home!"

"Mr. Yuan! I learned the piece you played at Mr. Ravelin's concert!"

Yuanshang was surrounded by these screams of undisguised joy. The "Teacher Yuan" was completely different from what the media heard in the crew. The simple suffix seemed to carry a weighty weight. sense of responsibility.The power was overwhelming, whistling, piercing his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, heart, liver, spleen and lungs.

Yuanshang took two steps back in the crowd, facing these respectful eyes, bent his hands together, and bowed.

The young people were suddenly panicked and didn't know what to do. They huddled together in a hurry and wanted to go up to help him, but they were pulled by an inexplicable emotion and dared not approach him.

"Thank you." Yuanshang straightened up, looked deeply across every face, and said sincerely, "Thank you very much."

The originally turbulent and noisy scene calmed down little by little, and the children returned to calm after a short period of joy.Everyone couldn't help recalling the reasons that prompted them to come here, and their moods became complicated again.Faced with Yuanshang's serious attitude, their original enthusiasm was gradually replaced by rationality, and an indescribable sense of mission came to their hearts, which made them full of emotions and surges of emotion.

After a long silence, someone spoke again——

"Teacher Yuan, come on."

The sound that broke the silence was like an undercurrent surging under the vast ocean. It suddenly set off a huge wave, and the atmosphere that had nowhere to vent found a breakthrough, and the flames burned in an instant.

"Teacher Yuan!! You can do it!!!"

"Matthew's departure is nothing!!! He will regret his choice sooner or later!!"

"We're all there! We're all behind you!!!"

"Our studio will get better and better!"

The noise was still in my ears, and Yuanshang was holding the roster and walking all the way back to the office. His regular and steady footsteps were repeated in the quiet corridor.He couldn't tell how he was feeling now, because the short-lived sense of sadness of Mingcheng and the huge forces they gathered had disappeared, and the decaying Chinese music scene did not lack young people with dreams in their hearts. They appeared, spoke out, and stood in line. Step out bravely and fight side by side with him.

Yu Shuimiao and many other artists who have cooperated with each other called to express their support clearly.

Thinking of them, thinking of Yu Shuimiao, thinking of Qin Huo, thinking of those children who are working hard for the future of the Chinese music scene.

I am not alone, on the contrary, I also have support and strength that my opponents cannot match.

"Yuan Shang." In the silent world, a hoarse voice suddenly came from behind. Yuan Shang stopped and looked back. At the other end of the corridor, a tall and thin young man was standing there with the backlight.

The face of the other party was hidden in the darkness, and the facial features could not be seen clearly, but the light shone on the slightly exposed arm, starting from the fingertips and winding upwards, embroidered with a complicated and mysterious flower arm.

Jiang slanted his huge guitar on his back, and just stood there, within a few meters around, there was a unique, uncontrollable unruly aura.

He stood up straight, and he didn't know whether it was because of nervousness or solemnity. In the darkness, he could feel the other party's eyes staring at him closely.

The two sides were silent for a moment, and the young man's slightly awkward voice sounded again: "...I want to sign in to your studio... can I?"

Standing in his position, you can clearly see the fluffy hair, the light-colored top, and the texture of the jeans on the back of Yuanshang.

After the impulsiveness, Jiang Xie's hand holding the guitar bag tightened slightly, and he couldn't explain why he came here, as if he had a sense of responsibility, as if he had a sense of shame, as if there was a voice telling him Such a choice should be made.

So here he came, standing here, looking at the handsome peer opposite him, bit by bit, the corners of his mouth slowly curled into a smile.

"Dong Song, aren't you very powerful in mainland China? Why hasn't the article written by your artist named Matthew been deleted!?"

"Dong Song! How do you do things? Why didn't you hold back the action of the Four Seas Group? XXX came this morning and proposed to terminate the contract, do you know!?"

"Dong Song! You can't just watch, you have to find a way to solve the problem as soon as possible!"

"Dong Song! Four Seas has poached our company's special effects makeup team!"

"Dong Song! The company that produced the American drama "XXXX" sent a lawyer's letter saying that we didn't buy the copyright of "XXXX". What should we do? Can we ignore it?"

The action of the Four Seas Group was really too fast, much faster than Song Tian expected. The anti poaching method was so simple and rude, but it was effective.

Headed by Tianwang Entertainment and Universal Times Music Production Company, and even the managers of some of the following video music playback websites came to them in a panic. The influence of Tianwang Entertainment and Universal Times Music Production Company is not inland, but in the alliance Among other inland companies in China, Mingcheng Film and Television ranks first in terms of scale, so the burden is all on Song Tian's shoulders.

They couldn't make up their minds about trivial matters, not to mention that their big-name artists were poached one after another?

Song Tian picked up the phone, and the assistant's voice sounded like thunder: "Dong Song, half of the director team has left, and the two managers of the screenwriting department have also left. All departments are now stepping up to check whether any management team is talking to Sihai. Private contact..."

The assistant's tone was very calm, and Song Tian also listened very calmly, so what if we find out?Those who should go and those who want to go will still go.

The creation department is different from other departments.

The two managers of the screenwriting department directly doubled their annual salaries by personnel, but the other party still insisted on handing in the resignation report. For the other directors, Song Tian decided to increase their bonus as a percentage of the film salary, and they still left. There must be no nostalgia.

In the famous city of film and television to recruit production staff, and in Tianwang Entertainment to recruit veteran superstars, Qin Huo's move is really too poisonous.

Song Tian once thought about whether Qin Huo would make plans for his own company, but he didn't take it to heart at that time. After all, the famous city attaches the most importance to the artist's contract of sale, and the artist's contract is harsh, and the compensation is famously high. Even if poaching corners, Four Seas is still doing a loss-making business.Artists in famous cities all follow the fast-moving route. It’s enough to be popular for a while, and the popular ones are poached. Song Tian also has a packaging and marketing industry chain. It is not difficult to launch a more popular one every minute.

But after much deliberation, he thought about all the currently popular Xiaosheng Xiaohua in the company, but he didn't expect Qin Huo to attack the behind-the-scenes team.

And the prying hits the nail on the head, especially the screenwriting department, this time it is out-and-out vitality.

There are a large group of small screenwriters in the screenwriting department of Mingcheng, and their daily work is to make up and copy. The reason why they can produce decent works every time is due to the final polishing of two old screenwriters.These two old employees have stayed in the famous city for more than ten years, but Song Tian has not paid much attention to it. He subconsciously pays more attention to the glamorous performance on the stage. It was not until he was about to lose that that he suddenly realized how important the work behind the scenes was. Or missing.

But it was too late, because of the lack of attention, Mingcheng and the behind-the-scenes working group never signed a long-term contract, and there was no attraction such as share dividends, a resignation letter, and resigned after a month, and Sihai even paid a penny of liquidated damages You don't need to go out, you can get the target in the bag.

Tianwang Entertainment has a lot of veteran superstars, and several of them are about to reach their appointment dates. The company's internal competition is fierce, and resources are scarce.

Peninsula artists have been controlled by the company for a long time, obedient and sensible, and many of them don’t even have their own team. In addition to the cultural output of the past few decades, they are familiar to middle-aged and elderly audiences. , but now Sihai took advantage of it.

The owner of the website who was sent a lawyer's letter by the producer of the uncopyrighted American drama anxiously sent more than ten short messages in a row. Song Tian glanced at it, turned around, turned on the computer screen, and was jumping out of a certain website to buy the genuine copyright of "XXXX" Exclusively aired promotional ads.

He felt suffocated when he saw it, and accidentally clicked in. He wanted to quit, but he clicked into the homepage with trembling hands.

In the most prominent position of the title of the homepage, there is a picture of the live broadcast of the press conference of the Four Seas Group.

Pulled his attention away.

This is not a press conference, more precisely, it should be a signing ceremony.

The red carpet was under the spotlight, and Qin Huo stood on the stage, tall and handsome, wearing a suit and leather shoes.

Several graceful actresses came onto the stage with fluttering skirts. The moment they appeared, the lights on the scene were so bright that they almost blinded the eyes of Song Tian who was looking at the screen.

Everyone at the scene was excited and excited, because the young women who appeared on the stage were all veteran actresses with important positions in the entertainment industry.

Four Seas is already very powerful, and joining them is like adding wings to a tiger. The real-time bullet screens are refreshing similar topics. I can only guess that Four Seas will enter a stage of rapid development and reach the top of domestic entertainment companies in minutes.

"Welcome to the big family of Four Seas." Qin Huo shook hands with them, and then turned to the camera. The calm expression on his face seemed to Song Tian to be out-and-out showing off and complacent, "In fact, not only a few famous superstars, but recently There are also more and more excellent behind-the-scenes workers who have joined Sihai just like them..."

A good behind-the-scenes worker...a good behind-the-scenes worker...

On the stage, Zhong Yue, the former head of Tianwang Entertainment, slightly hooked her red lips and smiled coquettishly, which caused a lot of commotion in the media.

The phone beeped, and another text message came in. The sender was from the Human Resources Department——

"Dong Song! The lighting engineers all said to leave! What should I do!?"

How to do?

How to do?

Song Tian smiled slightly, took a deep breath, raised his hand to pinch the phone, and smashed it against the wall with all his strength.
