Hearing Fan Kuan's pleading, Chen Zhe was a little surprised.

Shouldn't joining the board of directors be Fan Kuan's reward for him? Why did it become Chen Zhe's help to Fan Kuan?

"What do you mean by that, Mr. Fan?" asked Chen Zhe curiously.

Fan Kuan smiled helplessly and said: "That's the case, although I am the president of Fanxing Mutual Entertainment and the shareholder with the highest shareholding ratio on the board of directors, there are several shareholders on the board of directors who are twisted into a rope, and their shareholding ratio is just enough to balance me."

Because of their checks and balances, the decision-making power of Star Interactive Entertainment has gradually been lost from my hands, and I must regain my equity to have a chance to regain my power on the board of directors. ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhe suddenly realized.

"That's why Mr. Fan is so eager to introduce me to the board of directors, because once I have the shares, then those people will not be able to continue to check and balance you. ”

"Yes. Fan Kuan scratched his nose a little embarrassed and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, I didn't confess this matter to you before...... But joining the board is mutually beneficial for us, so I implore you to do me a favor. ”

Hearing Fan Kuan's words, Chen Zhe smiled.

Since the bosses of Starry Entertainment have already pleaded in such a low voice, Chen Zhe is really unreasonable if he refuses again.

Nodding slightly, Chen Zhe agreed to Fan Kuan's plea.

"It's a trivial matter, you don't have to be so serious, isn't it just another show? Chen Zhe said confidently.

However, at this time, Fan Kuan said worriedly: "But Mr. Chen, I'm afraid this show is a little difficult." ”

"Well, what's the difficulty? Chen Zhe asked.

Fan Kuan said: "This show is different from "The Masked Singer", and the type of program this time must be a documentary film - for example, a documentary. ”

"Documentary?" Chen Zhe simply wondered.

Who doesn't know that documentaries are one of the least popular genres on the market, this kind of film is boring, long and boring, it is simply melatonin, hypnosis is the best, who would want to watch a documentary?

"Mr. Fan, it seems that Starry Entertainment has made too much money and wants to deliberately lose money?" Chen Zhe couldn't help but joke.

Fan Kuan smiled bitterly: "How is it possible? No one will shoot a documentary...... Because the relevant departments are worried that the market is full of variety shows, or some TV dramas, movies, and the like, and they want to use the media industry to make some popular science programs, so they forcibly arrange for every company to produce some popular science documentaries. ”

Hearing this, Chen Zhe nodded in understanding.

In the other world before the rebirth, the relevant authorities did have similar regulations.

For example, there must be a certain proportion of amateurs in variety shows, and the second generation of stars can't directly come out to make money...... In short, there is a certain truth in the existence of these policies, and Chen Zhe will not say anything.

Since it is a policy, it can only be followed.

Although Fan Kuan is very resistant to this documentary, as if whoever touches it loses money, Chen Zhe does not have a headache about documentaries, because he has many excellent documentaries in his mind.

Some of these documentaries cost a lot of money, and they are high-cost, high-production, well-informed, and hard-core documentaries, while some documentaries are content and creativity, conquering the audience with novel content and excellent creativity.

In short, making a successful documentary is not a problem for Chen Zhe at all.

"Okay, leave it to me, I'll make it satisfying. Chen Zhe smiled.

Seeing that Chen Zhe was so confident, Fan Kuan was a little empty.

"Mr. Chen, did you agree so easily?" asked Fan Kuan.

"Why? Should I refuse?" Chen Zhe asked with a smile.

"Not really. Fan Kuan hurriedly shook his head and said, and then explained, "It's just that the market for documentaries is not particularly good, and it's easy to lose money when making this kind of project." To tell the truth, almost no one in Starry Entertainment wants to take the initiative to make documentaries, just for fear that their careers will be tarnished.

Mr. Chen, you have just created a popular variety show "The Masked Singer", and it can be said that your resume is very beautiful now, if the results of this documentary hit the streets, then it will be ...... for your resume"

Without waiting for Fan Kuan to finish speaking, Chen Zhe said firmly: "Don't worry, I won't hit the street." ”

"What?" Fan Kuan was stunned, and couldn't help but think that Chen Zhe was a little too confident.

But Chen Zhe still said: "I won't hit the street, my documentary, like "The Masked Singer", will still be successful." ”

"This ......" Fan Kuan hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to believe Chen Zhe.

"Since Mr. Chen is confident, then I won't say much, what I can support you is to provide you with sufficient funds, you can rest assured that this is ......" Fan Kuan said, "By the way, do you have any requirements from the staff?"

Chen Zhe thought about it, to make a documentary, the film team definitely needs the most professional team, in addition to the film team, other aspects can use some people from the "The Masked Singer" program team.

"Since Mr. Cheng Tao and his team are coming to join "The Masked Singer" soon, then I will transfer some people to shoot a documentary with me. But on top of that, I also need an experienced documentary film team, and the hardware has to be the best in the industry. Chen Zhe said.

"Of course that's fine. ”

Fan Kuan nodded immediately.

Chen Zhe's task is not only related to whether Chen Zhe's resume is good or not, whether his myth will be broken, but also related to Fan Kuan's status and decision-making power on the board of directors.

This can be said to be a task to bet on Fan Kuan's future, so Fan Kuan will definitely fully support Chen Zhe.

......

Two days later, Cheng Tao joined the "Masked Singer" of Star Mutual Entertainment with his ace music team, and as the chief director and chief planner of "The Masked Singer", Chen Zhe personally docked with Cheng Tao.

Seeing Chen Zhe again, and seeing Chen Zhe as a subordinate of Chen Zhe, Cheng Tao's heart was full of mixed feelings.

Chen Zhe...... No, it should be called Director Chen now, Director Chen, finally meet again. Cheng Tao said happily.

Putting aside the previous misunderstanding and unpleasantness, Cheng Tao, who met Chen Zhe again, was still grateful and happy in his heart, because if it weren't for Chen Zhe, it would be difficult for him and his team to find a new job in such a short time.

And seeing Cheng Tao, Chen Zhe was also very happy.

"Teacher Cheng Tao, meet again. ”

"Don't dare, I can't afford to be your 'teacher' now......" Cheng Tao hurriedly smiled and said modestly, "Director Chen can just call me Lao Cheng, or just call me Cheng Tao." Cheng Tao said.

Chen Zhe smiled: "Teacher Cheng Tao's ability is still excellent, so he can still afford this 'teacher'." ”

Cheng Tao saw that Chen Zhe was still able to remain modest even if he had an identity and status now, and secretly praised "not easy" in his heart, and said happily: "In the next period of time, we can work together again, I am really happy." ”

But Chen Zhe shook his head and said, "Teacher Cheng Tao, I'm afraid we won't be able to work together in the future." ”

"What?" Cheng Tao was stunned when he heard this, "Why?"

Chen Zhe said: "Because I have received a new task, I am going to record a new show in the next period of time, Mr. Cheng Tao, I will ask you to continue to do "The Masked Singer" in the future." ”

"Huh?"

Cheng Tao was stupid after hearing this.

He originally wanted to renew his relationship with Chen Zhe, so he joined "The Masked Singer", but he didn't expect him to come, but Chen Zhe left.

After pondering again, Cheng Tao suddenly realized.

"I know, it must be because the popularity of "The Masked Singer" is too high, and Mr. Fan is thinking about striking while the iron is hot and creating another show similar to "The Masked Singer", or using Director Chen's popularity to do other variety shows, right?"

However, Chen Zhe shook his head: "Teacher Cheng Tao, you are wrong this time, I want to shoot an alternative program this time - a documentary. ”

"What?!" Cheng Tao was stupid again after hearing this.

Chen Zhe actually wants to make a documentary?

Doesn't he make money from a good variety show? Why do you want to make a documentary that has no audience at all?

Who doesn't know that among the major categories of TV shows, documentaries are the one with the least audience?

"Director Chen, what the hell is going on? Why are you going to make a documentary? This thing...... It's not profitable at all. Cheng Tao asked incomprehensibly.

Chen Zhe smiled: "The task was given above, of course I have to complete it, this is also a policy-related thing, and I should do Mr. Fan a favor by shooting a documentary." ”

"But ......," Cheng Tao couldn't help but say, "But this documentary will definitely not be able to produce results, filming a documentary in Starry Entertainment, this is simply adding a stain to my resume......"

Chen Zhe smiled: "I don't think this is adding to the stain, isn't this a new opportunity?"

Cheng Tao thought about it, and finally came up with a reasonable explanation, couldn't help but squint his eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Director Chen, did you make such an excellent work as "The Masked Singer" when you first came to Stars Entertainment, which made people jealous? Someone deliberately gave you small shoes? Just like Wang Xiaoqin did that time?"

If it weren't, I can't figure out why you'd want to make a documentary......"

Chen Zhe was about to laugh when Cheng Tao said it, patted Cheng Tao on the shoulder and said: "Teacher Cheng Tao, don't think nonsense, in short, the task of "The Masked Singer" will be handed over to you, and I will shoot my documentary in a down-to-earth manner......

After saying that, Chen Zhe went directly to the assistant director Meng Xuehua, this time to shoot the documentary, he is going to hire Meng Xuehua to continue to be his deputy, and by the way, he will supervise the music and pictures of the documentary.

......

In the Internet era, news spread very quickly, and soon the news of Chen Zhe's documentary film spread.

For a while, many people in the industry knew that Chen Zhe left "The Masked Singer" and switched to making a documentary, which quickly caused a sensation in the industry.

There are different opinions about the reason why Chen Zhe left "The Masked Singer", but most people think that Chen Zhe was wearing small shoes.

A variety show celebrity went to remake a documentary, which is equivalent to letting a popular singer with a full concert go to the underground passage to perform.

With the spread of the news, more and more people began to think that this was a turning point in Chen Zhe's career, after all, documentaries are a niche genre in the industry, and no documentary has ever been popular.

Not even to mention the popularity, even Xiaohuo's documentary is completely devoid...... Even Chen Zhe, everyone is not optimistic that he can reverse the documentary market.

Soon.

Chen Zhe set up his own documentary team.

Among them, the chief director and chief planner is still Chen Zhe alone, and the deputy chief director is Chen Zhe's old face Meng Xuehua.

Most of the members of the team are old buddies of "The Masked Singer", and their loyalty to Chen Zhe is very high.

Originally, no one was willing to participate in the drudgery of filming a documentary, but because Chen Zhe exchanged his sports car for cash and distributed it to his subordinates at the previous celebration banquet, these old guys were of course willing to go to the soup for Chen Zhe.

Not to mention filming a documentary together, even if you quit your job together, you don't hesitate.

For this reason, the documentary team is in a very good atmosphere.

In addition, Fan Kuan also sent a very good shooting team to Chen Zhe, which is composed of some well-known photographers in the industry, and their skills are trustworthy.

After all the members of the documentary team arrived, the first meeting was officially held.

Sitting in the conference room, before Chen Zhe could speak, Meng Xuehua, who was more familiar with Chen Zhe, was the first to ask a question.

"Director Chen, what does Mr. Fan want to do when he gives us the most difficult task in the company?

Because he knew that the documentary would not be a blockbuster, Meng Xuehua's expectations at the beginning were relatively low.

After Meng Xuehua finished speaking, everyone also began to complain.

"It's definitely not about making a documentary to make money, it's good not to lose money. ”

"It's just to complete the policy targets, just perfunctory. ”

"It's enough to make money with "The Masked Singer", and we don't need a documentary. ”

"Director Chen, we should just be dealing with the policy this time, right?"

However, in the face of everyone's attitude, Chen Zhe shook his head firmly.

"I'm sorry, you're all wrong, I didn't shoot the documentary this time just to cope with errands and complete policy tasks, and I didn't want to lose money.

I Chen Zhe has a principle in doing things - if you want to do it, then you must do it the best. Since Mr. Fan gave me the task to record this documentary, then I have to shoot the documentary well.

Who said that documentaries can only lose money? Who said that documentaries have no audience?

That's because so far, there have been no good documentaries. As long as there are excellent documentaries, this type of program can still cause a sensation!

This time, I'm going to revolutionize the documentary!"

The words were loud, and many people in the team were excited, but when they calmed down and thought about it, everyone felt that Director Chen seemed to have a braggart component this time!
