Chapter 31: The world of the Thirty-One is so complicated
After the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, the year is almost over, the company's work plan for the new year has begun to be put on the agenda, and Le Mingxiao's team has gradually been organized. In addition to Lu Miao, the executive economy, other planning, publicity, stylists, and even drivers and other staff are all personally selected by Yan Duo, Le Mingxiao has no experience in this area, but he believes that the one that Yan Duo likes must be the best. His debut album has also been included in the work plan, but the production team has not yet been determined, and is slowly getting in touch, but he has been waiting for so long, and it is not bad at this time, fortunately, the company intends to let him take the singer-songwriter route, anyway, he writes his own songs, but he saves a lot of trouble in collecting songs.
In addition, Yan Duo really kept his promise and helped Le Mingxiao find a fitness coach. With the guidance of professional teachers, Le Mingxiao insisted on exercising, ensuring a nutritious diet, and trying to work and rest on time, and it only took a week to achieve initial results. When he saw Le Mingxiao's increasingly thin face and pointed small chin, Lin Chen, as an agent, said that he was very satisfied.
Valentine's Day on February 14th, which happened to coincide with the traditional Chinese Lantern Festival, and it was also the day when Bian Xiangdong and Jiang Yue's liveshow was sung.
And about this, Le Mingxiao also learned about it the day before the launching ceremony. On the morning of February 13th, Lin Chen called him to the company, and when he arrived at the company, he found that Qi Yao, who was supposed to be filming at a film and television base in the suburbs of Beijing, was also there, and he looked as confused as him.
After seeing that the two of them had arrived, Lin Chen explained the reason for calling them over. The company's new star plan, which has been planned for half a year, is about to enter the formal implementation stage, and after repeated discussions among the senior executives, the first batch of plans focuses on three newcomers, two of which are Qi Yao and Le Mingxiao, and the other is Li Xin, who debuted at the same time as them, and they need to attend the launching ceremony tomorrow.
Hearing this, Le Mingxiao's expression was really complicated, and he looked at Qi Yao beside him, who was better than him, but also looked a little strict. Le Mingxiao suddenly thought of the question asked by a reporter at the media meeting a year ago, the reporter asked him if he had ever thought that it would have an impact on Li Xin and Qi Yao's status in the company, at that time he didn't even think that he would have a competitive relationship with the two, but he didn't expect to come now? No, who can guarantee that it was not deliberately arranged by Yan Duo, so as to lead him to reveal this plan to the media in advance to attract the attention of the outside world?
At this time, Lin Chen said earnestly, interrupting Le Mingxiao's train of thought: "The two of you have been in the company for a long time, and you should also know that Sister Lin and Li Changhe next door have always been at odds, a few years ago, it was okay, but in the past few years, since your senior brother A Hao was poached by Li Changhe, our group has always been short next door." Now that you two have caught up with this good opportunity, you must fight for Sister Lin, put Li Xin down for me, and let Li Changhe, that old guy, know that we are not easy to mess with, understand?"
Le Mingxiao didn't know how to answer, and subconsciously looked at Qi Yao again, who was quite calm, and followed Lin Chen's words and said, "Sister Lin, don't worry, Lele and I won't let you down." ”
"I'm naturally relieved about you. Lin Chen said, looked at Le Mingxiao again, and sighed, "It's Lele, this kid, Ah Yao, you also take him, don't let him be so heartless all the time." ”
If Lin Chen said this to him directly, Le Mingxiao might have to struggle with words, but Lin Chen said this to Qi Yao, Le Mingxiao is not good at affecting his brothers, so he only smirked twice and said ambiguously: "Sister Lin, I will come on." ”
"It's good to know. ”
The official start of the launching ceremony was scheduled for three o'clock in the afternoon on February 14th, Le Mingxiao and Qi Yao put on makeup early and waited backstage, and Li Xin was also waiting like them. This is in normal times, the three friends have already played together, but today the two big economies are present, and the whole company knows that these two are kings but not kings, and no one dares to touch their reverse scales, only when the two of them are not paying attention, they greet each other with their eyes, and they are helpless in each other's expressions.
Finally, after the long twenty minutes before the opening, a staff member came to inform them that they could enter. The launching ceremony was held in a convention and exhibition center, and in addition to reporters from major media, there were many colleagues in the industry, and there were leaders in charge of culture and entertainment.
Le Mingxiao was placed in the second row in the middle, and after he sat down, he looked left and right, only to find that there were several young people sitting in the same row with them who were brightly dressed and had outstanding appearances, both men and women, who must have been selected as newcomers like them. And there are a few others who look more casual in dressing, one of the bearded uncles is particularly eye-catching, Le Mingxiao remembered what Lin Chen said to them yesterday, the newcomers launched this time not only have artists, but also include some behind-the-scenes staff, this uncle looks more like a director.
This plan was jointly initiated by Starlight Media, Jingshang Entertainment and AXA Pictures, these three companies can be said to be the three giants in the circle, and today's focus is naturally on the representatives of the three. Yan Duo, the president of Starlight Media, and An Shaolang, the little Kai of AXA Pictures, have always been very active in front of the media, so there is no need to say much, but the person who attended on behalf of Jingshang Entertainment was not the old man Luo, but a fresh face.
After Yan Duo's personal introduction, everyone here understood that this is Luo Yunsheng, the only son of Luo Lao, who has just returned from overseas not long ago, and will soon inherit the family business. Le Mingxiao thought of the conversation between Yan Duo and Master Luo Lai at the charity reception a year ago, presumably this was the "Ah Luo" in his mouth. The heir of the new generation of Jingshang Group is long and jade, born with a boy and a girl, to use the adjective that little girls like nowadays, that is, a demon, just the pair of hooking Danfeng eyes do not know how much the photographer has murdered. But is it really good for a president to be so good-looking, and how to mix the artists under his hands!
If you talk about strength alone, the three companies can be regarded as between the best of the two because of their different fields of expertise, and if you want to talk about the qualifications of the principal, then Yan Duo is the big brother who is indispensable. An Shaolang has always been a hanger, not to mention that although most of the external affairs of AXA Pictures are now taken care of by him, it is Mr. An who is really in charge of the scenes, and Luo Yunsheng is a complete newcomer to this industry, so Yan Duo has become a well-deserved spokesman on this occasion today.
He told everyone that the three companies had been planning this plan for half a year, and they would invest a lot of financial and material resources. The so-called "predecessors plant trees, future generations enjoy the shade", they will select some potential newcomers to build, hoping that these newcomers can drive more industry peers to make progress together while developing, so as to form a healthy competition in the circle, and the ultimate goal is to create a good environment for the Chinese entertainment industry. Regarding the selection criteria for this part of the people, in addition to having strength, the first condition is that they must have good character, and only by learning to be a person can they be a good artist.
Listening to Yan Duo talking eloquently on it, Le Mingxiao suddenly thought of a sentence he had learned in the junior high school politics textbook: let some people get rich first, and then lead others, so as to achieve the goal of common prosperity. Why didn't he see that President Yan Da was so popular and professional before? I don't know what the final effect of this plan will be, whether it can really achieve the goal of making the whole circle prosper together, or will it only widen the gap between the rich and the poor?
Yan Duo also revealed to the public that the three companies have been planning a number of projects, including film and television dramas, variety shows, music and other plans, each plan will be a large investment, and strive to create more high-quality products, if any colleague is willing to cooperate, you can come to Mao Sui to recommend yourself, welcome all like-minded friends to participate in their projects.
At the end of the ceremony, they, who were the first batch of guinea pigs, also appeared on stage, and each of them symbolically answered one or two questions from reporters, which was regarded as a formality. Then several leaders came to the stage, and the three initiators of the project pressed the button that symbolized the official opening of the project, and then opened the champagne, and then the whole launching ceremony was considered a successful conclusion.
Le Mingxiao looked at the time and found that it was just after five o'clock, if he rushed to Bian Xiangdong's live scene at this time, he would still have time to cheer them up backstage before the opening, but what he didn't expect was that Qi Yao told him that he had asked for leave from the crew, and now he had to rush back to the crew to film. Although Le Mingxiao felt regretful, he also expressed his understanding, so he was ready to go with Li Xin, but before he could take any action, Lin Chen grabbed him and said that there was a special Valentine's Day event in a shopping mall at night that he needed to attend, and the organizer was a brand sponsor with whom they had a long-term relationship, so he had to participate.
Le Mingxiao was wilted at that time, and said in his heart, how could it be so coincidental, but there was a notice at this juncture, and if there was a notice, why didn't he notify him in advance? However, the decision made by the agent, he was a little artist, and he couldn't change it, so he had to say goodbye to Li Xin with his eyes, and then reluctantly got into the nanny car under Lin Chen's gaze.
The car drove out of the parking lot of the convention and exhibition center, driving on the busy highway, Le Mingxiao looked out the window, then took out his mobile phone and began to scroll through Weibo. He searched with the names of Bian Xiangdong and Jiang Yue, and found that there were already many Reuters on Weibo. The liveshow is scheduled to officially start at half past seven, and at this time, the venue has already been properly arranged, and the fans have arrived outside the venue early to wait, queuing up to receive tickets, Bian Xiangdong and Jiang Yue have also dressed up, put on makeup, and are being interviewed by the media backstage......
Le Mingxiao sighed helplessly, said in his heart that his brother was sorry, and then posted a Weibo.
-- Bian Xiang Dongjiang Yue can't come to the scene to watch your performance, you two sing hard, the brotherhood will cheer you on not far away!
After posting Weibo, Le Mingxiao put away his mobile phone, silently looked out the window, and counted the vehicles coming and going outside. A few minutes later, Lin Chen suddenly said to him: "Lele, delete your new Weibo." ”
"......" Le Mingxiao was stunned for a moment, turned around, and looked at Lin Chen in puzzlement, "Sister Lin, there is no problem with my Weibo, right?" He deliberately read that Weibo a few more times, and there was no problem with looking at it horizontally and vertically, and he didn't even have a picture.
"Delete. Lin Chen repeated, "In the future, your Weibo is not allowed to appear any words related to Bian Xiangdong." ”
Ren Chaoyuan and Yan Duo both asked him to distance himself from Bian Xiangdong, why did even Sister Lin come to join in the fun now? Le Mingxiao felt that his heart was almost collapsed, but he still kept his surface calm and said, "Sister Lin, I don't understand what you mean by this. ”
"You don't have to understand now. Lin Chen said decisively, "As long as you understand that Sister Lin is for your good, you will naturally understand after a long time." ”
Is this a tongue twister? Le Mingxiao was a little unsure of how to react. What is said to be good for him, of course, he also understands that Sister Lin will definitely not harm him, but since it is good for him, he can't explain everything clearly, one or two are hidden, do you sincerely want to suffocate him to death?
Just when Le Mingxiao was still trying to argue something, Lin Chen had already said to Lu Miao, who was sitting in the front row: "In the future, you will give me a good pass on all of Lele's public social platforms, so as to save him from causing any trouble." ”
In front of Lin Chen, Lu Miao also turned into a little sheep, he threw Le Mingxiao a helpless look, and said, "Sister Lin, don't worry, I will definitely pay more attention." ”
Le Mingxiao didn't want to say anything, he leaned into the car seat weakly, rubbed his cheeks vigorously with both hands, and fell into silence again.
The world of adults is so complicated, he doesn't want to understand it at all......
