This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

   As Shen Shenghui spoke, the phone rang again, and he picked it up helplessly to say a few perfunctory words.

   "Oh, Director Li!"

   "Invite Wang Cheng to the show? Sorry, Director Li, Wang Cheng has no schedule for now..."

   "What? A period of 70 million yuan? Er... Let me think about it again."

   "Okay, I will reply to you when the time comes..."

hang up the phone!

Shen Shenghui looked at Qin Yuhai in amazement and said, "It's a call from a small program group of Southwest Satellite TV. Before, these small TV station small program groups did not dare to pay too high a price, mainly because they were afraid that they would not be able to make money back. This time, Wang Cheng's success in Zhongyuan Satellite TV's midnight cultural and educational programs has given all small TV stations a surprise and a chance to realize their dreams."

"All the small program groups of small TV stations dare to offer sky-high prices. This Director Li's program group is also the midnight program of Southwest Satellite TV. The total investment of the program group for two years does not exceed 20 million! This time, I dare to ask for 7,000 Wan invited Wang Cheng to the last program because he wanted to replicate the miracle of Zhongyuan Satellite TV culture."

   "The ratings of 4.95 are really so attractive that they dare to take risks and want to replicate this miracle."

  Central Plains Satellite TV Culture The success of Central Plains is far more influential in the circle than the success of Shonan Satellite TV's rural life.

  Shonan Satellite TV has a profound heritage, and its success is understandable.

  However, why should Zhongyuan Satellite TV?

  Central Plains Satellite TV can succeed, why can't they?

  Every remote small TV station wants to become the next Central Plains Satellite TV.

  Qin Yuhai was really shocked by the price...

  Before, Chaoju’s last program was seven or eight million, and the maximum would not exceed ten million!

   Now, the price of Wang Cheng's last episode has skyrocketed to 70 million? Almost ten times the price of other super giants...?

   This gap is too big, right?

  Qin Yuhai asked: "What is the highest bid now?"

  A memory and surprise still flashed across Shen Shenghui's face, and he said in a low voice, "It's the local Dragon TV in Shanghai. Li Guang called me overnight last night and offered a price of 90 million!"

  Qin Yuhai's eyes widened: "90 million, one phase?"

  Shen Shenghui nodded: "Yes, 90 million, just one phase! It will end in two days at most!"

   hiss...

  As one of the giants in the entertainment industry, Qin Yuhai, the owner of Rubik's Cube Entertainment, couldn't help but gasp when he heard this number, which raised the temperature inside the car a little bit.

  This price!

  Even if he has been in the circle for decades, it is beyond the scope of his common sense and imagination of the previous decades.

Before joining the popular first-line variety shows, the price of the whole season package was about 40 to 50 million. The price of superstars was too high. No program group would invite superstars to join for a whole season. There is almost no possibility of making money with the announcement fee for the whole season.

  Now, the Shanghai Dragon TV's offer to Wang Cheng is 90 million yuan in a single issue, crushing the entire entertainment circle, and it is about double the price of the entire season of the general super first-line celebrity.

  Qin Yuhai took a few deep breaths to calm himself down, but asked in a strange tone: "Madou Satellite TV is not afraid of losing money? Even if the ratings reach four points, it is impossible to get back the money in a short time."

Shen Shenghui said affirmatively: "Of course! Even with the ratings of 4.95 in the Central Plains, it is impossible to make back the 100 million invested in the previous period in a short period of time! However, the entire Central Plains Satellite TV has become a hit and has gained popularity. At the same time, if they can continue to implement the successful model that Wang Cheng showed them, it may continue to be popular for a while, and the overall profit will far exceed 100 million."

"For example, the last time Wang Cheng's rural life on Shonan Satellite TV was directly moved to the prime time, and the overall investment scale has also risen to a higher level. As long as the follow-up ratings can be stabilized at around 1.5, it will be enough to become Shonan Satellite TV. One of the pillars. The first episode after the revision may be aired this weekend, and I received news that this first episode has invited many big names, and the success rate is very high!"

   "Dragon Satellite TV in Shanghai really wants a similar program, so I want to ask Wang Cheng to come over and bring up a program, so that Dragon TV can have a sense of presence in front of the national audience!"

After a pause, Shen Shenghui said with a smile: "The most important thing is that Modu is rich! They will not be stingy if they can exchange money for fame, and they are willing to invest no matter how much they have! Dongfang Satellite TV of Modu has spent so many years with money and fame. resources, but they just don’t have a supporting program, so they will spare no expense for it! Don’t say 90 million, if I dare to ask for a price, I want 100 million, and they will all agree!”

  Qin Yuhai nodded slightly. As a native of Shanghai, he also knew the situation of Dragon TV in Shanghai.

  Originally, he wanted to invest in a large-scale music variety show in cooperation with Shanghai Satellite TV, so that Wang Cheng would appear in the first season, which would become an instant hit.

  However, it was shelved because of Shen Shenghui's contract renewal plan.

  So, he knows how eager Dragon TV in Shanghai is for good programs.

  He looked at the large group of people outside, and asked softly: "Next, what do you want to arrange? Continue to implement the previous plan? Let Wang Cheng go to the small TV station's small program group to consume popularity?"

  Thinking of Wang Cheng's single-term price of up to 90 million yuan, Qin Yuhai's idea of ​​signing Wang Cheng became more determined...

  Wang Cheng's value is really unimaginable.

  Even if everyone else from Rubik’s Cube Entertainment ran away, even if Hu Fei ran away, as long as Wang Cheng was alone, Rubik’s Cube Entertainment would have the possibility to surpass Penguin Entertainment and become the number one giant in Huayu Entertainment.

   This is the value...

Shen Shenghui's eyes flickered, and he said in a low voice: "After the high ratings of the two programs of Country Life and Cultural Central Plains, it proves that Wang Cheng's attractiveness is beyond imagination. Even a small program group that is not popular can be attracted by him. Bring fire. I think this is because there are no restrictions on these two program groups, and he can use his own advantages at will."

"The master-level calligraphy and literary background he showed on these two programs have attracted a lot of popularity and fans! From yesterday night to now, Wang Cheng has skyrocketed more than seven million fans, only a short of one million. If you can reach over 100 million, you should be able to do it today, and become the second star in the entire Chinese entertainment industry with over 100 million fans."

   "So, I think... we don't need small program groups to consume his popularity and reputation, that would give him too much room to play! We can try to limit him with popular professional programs."

   "Find a program that is highly professional but not suitable for him, so that the audience can see his clumsy and ugly side, which will reduce his reputation and image..."

  Let the audience see Wang Cheng's clumsy and ugly side?

  Qin Yuhai rubbed his chin thoughtfully, recalling in his mind the picture of Wang Cheng completely ignoring himself and everyone else when he went out just now, and he was also very much looking forward to seeing the picture of Wang Cheng making a fool of himself in public!

  Wang Cheng, who is so self-assured and self-confident, must be very good-looking when he makes a fool of himself in public, right?

  Qin Yuhai smiled slightly, and asked softly, "Do you have a choice?"

  Shen Shenghui shook his head lightly: "There are options, but they haven't been decided yet."

  Qin Yuhai nodded: "Make sure as soon as possible, we don't have much time."

   Every day that passes, Wang Cheng's contract time is reduced by one day.

  Seeing that Wang Cheng's value is getting higher and higher.

  Qin Yuhai was very anxious.

   If Wang Cheng cannot renew his contract, keep Wang Cheng in his own company.

  He will be brooding all his life...

  Shen Shenghui looked at Qin Yuhai's eyes and felt the pressure. He knew that he had bet his career this time.

  If he doesn't make it in the end...

   His best outcome is to leave the showbiz.

   Both of them were silent for a while, looking at the other people outside, and then at the direction Wang Cheng was running away from.

  …

  The dozens of people outside didn’t chat anymore, because they were all competitors without a doubt.

  Especially the boss of Hong Xing, Liu Xing, and the two managers of Ma Ning and Ta Yun, they all wished for each other to die suddenly on the spot...

  Liu Xing is the most helpless. I thought that Wang Cheng was the spokesperson of his company, and he and Wang Cheng are also partners in the copyright cooperation of this work. Should we talk about it first?

result…

  Wang Chengli ignored him.

  Liu Xing felt quite helpless, but still had to continue to find a way to obtain the derivative copyright cooperation of Wang Cheng Xia Ke Xing.

  Have the experience of cooperating with Humble Room Ming last time.

  He can roughly know what requirements and conditions Wang Cheng will put forward.

But.

  Wang Cheng has already taken 10% of Hongxing's overall sales share, as well as an additional 10% share of the single-product Humble Room Inscription series.

   It can be calculated from this, if you want to get the copyright of Xia Ke Xing, that is at least the same condition as the humble room inscription!

  Hoo...

   Liu Xing took a deep breath and felt that he might really be working for Wang Cheng by then.

   It seems that Hongxing is helping Wang Cheng make money?

  Liu Xing took out a cigarette and smoked it, then looked at Ma Ning and Tayun who were staring at the two people next to him, and knew that he had to win the copyright cooperation of Wang Cheng's works.

   Otherwise, if Ma Ning and Ta Yun get it, it will definitely severely suppress and affect Hong Xing's sales.

because…

  Wang Cheng's popularity will be greatly divided.

   The most fundamental reason for Hongxing's current popularity is that Wang Cheng's popularity is almost entirely cashed in the Hongxing brand.

  Because Wang Cheng has not cooperated with any other brands.

  So, fans who support Wang Cheng can only pay attention to Hong Xing.

  If Wang Cheng cooperates with other brands on Xia Ke Xing this time, it will not be as simple as a copyright cooperation, but will inevitably take away part of Wang Cheng's popularity.

  ...

  Wang Cheng walked slowly, maintaining his unhurried pace every day, breathing evenly and long, more relaxed than when he first started running.

   He didn't pay attention to the many people he saw at the door of the apartment dormitory just now.

  Hoo hoo...

  A sound of breathing and footsteps came.

  A white figure ran out from the side road and followed Wang Cheng.

  Wang Cheng was slightly surprised.

  Because, this is not Han Xiao.

   Instead, it was Lin Mi who interviewed him.

Lin Mi was also wearing white sportswear, snow-white running shoes, her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she was also wearing a mask. She ran slowly at the same pace as Wang Cheng. When she saw Wang Cheng's gaze, she smiled and said, "I'm surprised." ?"

  Wang Cheng didn't speak, and didn't pay attention to Lin Mi anymore, and continued running along his own route.

Lin Mi began to talk to herself: "Yesterday I watched the whole program you recorded in the Central Plains of Culture, the three dance performances and the song you wrote were very amazing. Although, my name is Lin Mi, and my family name It meant Concubine Luoshen Mi. However, I have to admit that the Luoshen Flying Dance performed by Wen Yixiao is more like Luoshen than I am.”

   "I heard that this dance was choreographed and recorded live by you, you are amazing!"

  Wang Cheng still didn't speak, nor did he look at Lin Mi again, as if he didn't hear it.

  Lin Mi was surprised and admired Wang Cheng even more.

   It’s no wonder that Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru were all indifferent to their collective pursuit.

  When Lin Mi decided to come here today, he learned a lot of information.

  Knowing that Han Xiao can get so close to Wang Cheng and become the only person in the circle who can talk to Wang Cheng, it is because Han Xiao has been sticking to Wang Cheng persistently!

   Well, she can do that too...

  She can also cling to Wang Cheng desperately.

  Whether Wang Cheng ignores her or what other people look at, she can persist.

Lin Mi continued: "The poem "Xia Ke Xing" is the most amazing ancient poem I have ever seen in the past few hundred years. Now the entire domestic literary circle has been compared to you! It's so amazing! But it's even more powerful. The most amazing thing is that you wrote this poem with two master-level calligraphy fonts, not only the literary circle, but the entire calligraphy circle has been crushed by you..."

   "The most commendable thing is that you are so powerful, but you are willing to keep a low profile and be ordinary, and still insist on being yourself. Wang Cheng, I have never really admired anyone in my life. You are the first!"

"I have always been straightforward. Your talent and character have conquered me. I only recognize you in my life. Whether you accept me or not, I will always follow you and am willing to do anything for you. I Believe me, I will make you accept me!"

  Lin Mi spoke directly and simply, staring straight at Wang Cheng, making no effort to hide the possessive desire in her eyes and the inextricable affection.

  She thought that Wang Cheng would react a little to these words, right?

After all, her appearance is not inferior to Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, An Keru, and Han Xiao, but her temperament is slightly stronger, more like an urban beauty, not as elegant as Wen Yixiao, and not as classical as An Keru. Delicate, with a little more worldly atmosphere.

  Growing so big, those who pursue her can line up from the Huangpu River to the Yellow River, including many top school bullies, top entertainment circles, and the second generation of top rich people in Shanghai.

   However, she refused.

  Until Wang Cheng appeared...

But.

  Wang Cheng didn't respond to her confession, as if he didn't hear or see her, he still looked at the front and ran at the same rhythm, without even a single breath.

  Hoo...

  Lin Mi was a little bit shocked in her heart, took a deep breath to calm herself down, and continued: "Wang Cheng, do you have anything to say to me?"

   Silence...

   Huh...... Huh......

  Boom boom...

  Only Wang Cheng's breathing rate and the sound of running footsteps remained unchanged.

  A grievance flashed in Lin Mi's eyes. He gritted his teeth and remained silent. He continued to run with Wang Cheng for a while, and then ran back with Wang Cheng.

  When passing by the breakfast shop, Wang Cheng bought a breakfast on his own and ate it.

Lin Mi also bought an identical one, and ate slowly beside Wang Cheng, watching a large group of people gathered downstairs in the apartment dormitory in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, the ratings of Wenhua Zhongyuan reached At 4:95, the ratings record for the midnight show has been refreshed again. These people will definitely invite you to the show at a high price. I think you can screen carefully and find some suitable shows. Don’t let Shen Shenghui arrange for you. Some inexplicable shows."

  Wang Cheng still ignored Lin Mi, slowly finished his breakfast, threw it in the trash can by the side of the road, and walked towards the apartment dormitory.

  Many TV station leaders and program producers and directors gathered around.

   "Wang Cheng, our program would like to invite you to cooperate..."

   "Wang Cheng, come to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, we have cooperated once..."

   "Wang Cheng..."

   "Wang Cheng..."

   "Wang Cheng..."

  …

  Qin Yuhai and Shen Shenghui didn't rush to talk to Wang Cheng, they went directly into the apartment dormitory, together with Liu Xing and Ma Ning, the people who stepped on the cloud.

   Neither Qin Yuhai nor Shen Shenghui dared to offend the advertiser's sponsor father.

  The leaders of the TV stations and the heads of the program groups are even less afraid to offend the father of the advertiser...

  Advertisers are the ones at the top of the food chain in the entertainment industry, but they have been ignored by the public all the time.

Wang Cheng ignored the leaders of many TV stations and the heads of the program groups who surrounded him. Even if there were Li Guang and Wu Tong who he knew, he ignored them and walked directly into the apartment building. Gu Zi went upstairs and returned to the dormitory.

  Lin Mi also insisted on following Wang Cheng, regardless of being seen by so many people.

  Dozens of people followed Wang Cheng up the stairs without giving up.

until…

  Wang Cheng opened the door and walked into the room, and then closed the door unceremoniously with a bang.

   It took dozens of people outside to quiet down.

  Looked at each other...

  The atmosphere is a bit eerie and quiet.

  Most of them saw Wang Cheng for the first time, and it was also the first time in their life that they saw such a celebrity artist who had such a personality and ignored so many real power figures in the circle.

  Others, no matter how big the name is, like Liu Ganhua with over 100 million fans, they will not ignore them like this.

The leaders of some TV stations look a little ugly, but they are not easy to get angry. Thinking of the horrible 4.95 ratings of Central Plains Satellite TV last night, they have to suppress all the anger in their hearts, and their faces still remain the same. with a sincere smile.

  However, when they saw that even Qin Yuhai, the boss of Mofang Entertainment, and Shen Shenghui, the artist director, were locked outside, they felt better.

  Wang Cheng is not targeting any of them, but all of them.

  Qin Yuhai did have a stiff awkward smile on his face. If he hadn't waited for so long and didn't want to get angry with Wang Cheng in front of so many people, he would have turned around and left a long time ago.

  Shen Shenghui hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door gently: "Wang Cheng, President Qin and I have something to talk to you about, can you come in?"

   Liu Xing hurriedly said: "And I..."

  Ma Ning's President Ma also said: "I also have something to talk about, Wang Cheng..."

   The vice president of Tayun also hurriedly said: "And I..."

The dozens of other people stuck here wanted to say that there were still them, but judging by the posture, the size of Wang Cheng's dormitory and Wang Cheng's attitude, it was impossible for them all to go in, so they could only quietly look at Qin Yuhai first. Several people.

   After a while...

  When the stiff smile on Qin Yuhai's face was almost unstoppable, Wang Cheng's eternally calm voice came from inside: "Come in!"

  Hoo...

  Shen Shenghui let out a sigh of relief, hurriedly opened the door, and said to Qin Yuhai, "Mr. Qin, you go first!"

  Qin Yuhai walked in quickly, he didn't want to stay outside for a second and be watched by so many people...

  Then, Hongxing, Ma Ning, and Tayun's three major brands also hurriedly followed in Qin Yuhai's footsteps.

  Lin Mi followed without hesitation.

  Shen Shenghui just wanted to stop Lin Mi, but he held back. He didn't dare to offend Lin Mi. At the same time, he also saw that Lin Mi came back with Wang Cheng just now, so he didn't know the relationship between the two!

  Others looked at Shen Shenghui eagerly.

  Especially Li Guang, the representative of Dragon TV in Shanghai, grabbed Shen Shenghui's arm and said, "Director Shen, I want to have a face-to-face chat with Wang Cheng!"

  Wu Tong from Jiangsu-Zhejiang Satellite TV also hurriedly said: "Director Shen, and I..."

   This time, the others were unwilling and wanted to go in.

   "Director Shen, and me!"

   "Director Shen..."

Shen Shenghui was overwhelmed by what he heard, and hurriedly waved his hands and said, "Everyone, Director Li, Director Wu, everyone, please be quiet. Wang Cheng likes to be quiet and doesn't like to be noisy. And there can't be so many people standing inside. When we entered, it was full. , I suggest you all go back. To be honest, Wang Cheng doesn't want to see you..."

  Dozens of people outside instantly became extremely quiet.

   With a pair of eyes, you can see Wang Cheng sitting there reading a book in the dormitory room past Shen Shenghui and Qin Yuhai.
