Chapter 179: Paving the Way
Before Lin Su called Chen Wensheng, he thought calmly for a long time.
The most obvious idea is that the teacher asked him to come forward because of Fu Chenhui.
Because a few years ago, when she recommended Chi Yixun to take over "Orange Hero", it was revealed that Fu Chenhui's family was a senior executive of Dongying.
Asking her to find Fu Chenhui is the most direct and simple way to deal with it.
But after thinking about it a little more, Lin Su felt that there must be some deep meaning for the teacher to do this.
But she couldn't think of a reason.
Lying in front of the computer with her nose wrinkled, she stretched out her index finger and tapped the keyboard casually and gently.
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration gave her direction.
Cause and effect, when you can't find the cause of a thing, you look at the result, and the direction is not far from ten.
Lin Su sat up straight, thinking carefully about what would happen if he really got Dongying's investment.
Chen Wensheng received her call, and it was already noon break.
He knew why Lin Su called, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tan has already told you?"
"Well, he called me in the morning. Lin Su squinted, holding the mobile phone in one hand and gently stroking the rim of the cup with the other.
"Tell me what's on your mind at the moment. β
Lin Su came back to his senses and opened his mouth to ask, "Teacher, why did you ask me to find Dongying?"
"Guess?" Chen Wensheng asked instead of answering.
Lin Su was silent for a while before he said tentatively: "Do you want Mr. Tan and the company to know my relationship with Dongying?"
She thought about it carefully just now, and the result of her appearance was to expose that she had something to do with Dongying, and it was not shallow.
Mr. Tan also said that the teacher asked him to come to him, and it was obvious that the teacher did it on purpose.
Chen Wensheng listened to her words and laughed, and his tone was also relaxed, "That's right, this is one thing. β
On the one hand, what are the other reasons?
Lin Su was very surprised.
Chen Wensheng continued: "I want you to find Dongying to invest in your own name, it is due to internal and external factors, and Mr. Tan and Chuyang are just internal factors. β
At this point, his voice stopped.
Lin Su took the initiative to ask: "What are the external factors?"
Chen Wensheng smiled, "Have you ever thought about it, there are so many investment units that have cooperated with Chuyang, why do I choose Dongying?"
Lin Su suddenly understood that the external cause that the teacher was talking about was Dongying itself.
But what does Dongying have to do with the "Pillow Waiting" project?
Her mind raced, thinking through all the details that might be connected.
In the end, it was determined that the artists of Dongying were determined.
Lin Su suddenly realized: "Teacher, is it related to the artists of Dongying?"
The reason for the unexpected investment in "Pillow and Waiting" may be related to Song Yiyi and Hu Le, and these two people happen to be artists of Dongying.
"That's right. Chen Wensheng's voice gradually became serious, "Judging from the news revealed by Liyi Media, the male and female protagonists of "Against the Sky" are very hostile to our project. β
Song Yiyi was rejected by Chu Yang, and the production team of "Pillow Waiting" and "Chasing the Murderer" is the same, so she is naturally even more unhappy.
And Hu Le was completely because he hated Chi Yixun when he cut off Hu.
These two people have to work together now, they have common interests and goals, and they also have the same targets, so the team naturally hit it off.
Lin Su was very depressed, frowned and said: "They are because of personal grievances, why should the investor and the crew of "Against the Sky"? β
"You're still a little naΓ―ve. Chen Wensheng laughed lightly.
"No matter what the subject matter, the market cake is so big, if you eat more, others will naturally have less, so others have to find a way to stop you from swallowing it. β
Liyi Media has invested in two projects at the same time, and the investment amount will naturally be divided into two parts.
Who has more and who has less depends on the competitiveness of these two projects.
This competitiveness includes not only the quality of the project itself and the production team, but also the leading actors.
From the perspective of projects, "Against the Sky" and "Pillow Waiting" are comparable, but the former is an IP project and already has a large fan base.
In terms of the production team, the production team of "Against the Sky" is naturally worse than other teams in Chuyang, but Lin Su and Xie Tianhong are both newcomers and have only filmed one online drama, and their competitiveness has not yet been fully recognized in the circle.
In terms of actors, "Pillow and Waiting" is also slightly inferior.
Chi Yixun's acting skills are recognized by investors, and he is currently supported by a large amount of traffic, which is originally powerful.
But the male protagonist of "Against the Sky" invited an idol, and naturally did not lose to Chi Yixun, who suddenly became popular, in terms of traffic.
It's his acting skills that make people worry, but with the addition of Song Yiyi, this concern is also smaller.
In addition, many of the supporting roles in "Against the Sky" are old drama bones, and the director is famous for training actors to act, so his acting skills are not hard.
Therefore, on the whole, investors are more inclined to the project "Against the Sky".
And the two leading actors are very dissatisfied with the "Pillow Waiting" project, whether they are behind the scenes, coercion or temptation, in short, they successfully made Liyi Media give up "Pillow Waiting".
Chen Wensheng sighed lightly: "Project competition is like this. β
Don't say that the other party is doing this to their own advantage.
Even operations that harm others and are not beneficial to oneself are common in the circle.
Lin Su didn't squeak, but he was thinking in his heart that this investor was waiting to regret it.
Chen Wensheng said: "The two actors of "Against the Sky" are both popular stars of Dongying, and they still have some means, and they are very angry with you, but I am afraid that they will make small moves against "Pillow Ge Waiting" in the future. β
all show that guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to defend, and the methods of some artists are also headaches.
It's best to cut the trouble from the source once and for all.
When Lin Su heard this, he understood what the teacher meant at noon, "Dongying is their owner, so they don't dare to do anything about the project invested by Dongying." β
"It's hard to say if it's other film and television companies, but Mr. Xin of Dongying has said that it doesn't matter how artists fight the company in private, but when it comes to the interests of the company, they will never be soft. β
Was it Xin Ziyi who said this? Or Xin Guofan?
Lin Su thought secretly.
Chen Wensheng saw that she didn't talk, so he continued: "Pulling Dongying to invest, you can consolidate your position in Chuyang internally, and block the small actions of some artists externally. β
"Consolidate my position in the early sun?" Lin Su asked rhetorically.
Although she first guessed that this was the teacher's intention, she was still curious about the teacher's motives.
Chen Wensheng explained: "No matter where you are, if you want to mix well, you must either have absolute strength or be tough in the background, and the same is true for Chuyang." β
"You just started in the industry, and you just wrote a script, although the quality is good, but it is nothing in the screenwriting team of Chuyang. β
"A big part of the reason people value you now is because of me. β
"If I leave Chuyang one day, I'm afraid your situation will not be so good. β
"So before your strength is strong, having a tough backstage in this circle is just as hard as something to underestimate. β
"Girl, do you understand?"
Lin Su listened to his words, and he didn't know why he suddenly felt a little sentimental in his heart.
Especially in the last sentence, she seemed to hear the teacher's sigh.
My heart tightened for no reason.
Lin Su took a deep breath and said tentatively, "Teacher, are you going to leave Chuyang?"
