Chapter 022: Windfall
Chen Shuting's trip to Jinling was nothing bloody. He respects his collaborators, and his collaborators respect him as well, and he gets the job done with success.
He returned to Donghu and temporarily rested at home, with no follow-up work.
His reputation is too low, and there will be no job opportunities to actively seek him. His previous two job opportunities were all obtained by Lao Xie begging his father to sue his grandmother and posting various relationships.
Lao Xie is responsible for all the operations of "Pride in the Clouds", and he really has no time to take care of Chen Shuting. He didn't help Chen Shuting ask for a job opportunity, so Chen Shuting stayed at home behind closed doors.
The days when you are at home behind closed doors are also relaxed and leisurely.
The weather in Donghu has been very bad recently, and it has been raining profusely. Chen Shuting wakes up early and goes for a morning jog, passing by the flower bed in the center of the community, and he occasionally happens to stop by the flower bed.
The flower beds are planted with red and white roses, like unopened petals, surrounded by water droplets, bright and beautiful.
Chen Shuting got up early to run, fiddled out his acting skills in front of classic TV series and mirrors during the day, and acted against Yoko, and went to the gym with Yoko at night, which was very fulfilling.
In his system, the gold coins are still rising.
With the popularity of "Proud in the Sky", the song "Is There a Car in Heaven" has been mentioned more and more times, and the follow-up popularity is still there.
As a result, his gold coins rose from 1,564 to 1,601.
"More than 37,000 people have learned about me, and that's fine." Chen Shuting thought.
His popularity has ups and downs, but the gold coins will not fall if they increase.
Yoko is also at home.
"Proud in the Clouds" is still being screened, and the entertainment gossip area of the meager and forum is often swiped by this movie.
A lot of people are free Amway this movie.
Yoko, as the only new face in this movie, brought freshness to fans, and his meager fans also rose from more than 80,000 to 200,000.
It's just that Yoko's work has stopped.
It's not that he didn't notice. The notices sent to the company are almost full of mailboxes.
Yoko is no broker.
"!" Chen Shuting heard Yangzi scolding into the phone several times.
Yoko values his career very much, he wants to be a star, that is, a public figure, so he pays special attention to quality and image, and is afraid of leaving a black history. The one who can make him scold so loudly has to be his former agent Qi Qi!
When Chen Shuting heard him scold for the fourth time, he knocked on his door and asked him, "What's wrong with the cheap man surnamed Qi?" ”
"He wants to come back and continue to work with me!" Yoko was furious, "Labor and management really beep the entire solar system and encounter such a thing!" If this is in Luzhou, Lao Tzu will find someone to do him! ”
Chen Shuting laughed: "I thought I had completely offended him"
"The entertainment industry is like this, how can there be any friendship? It's nothing more than profit! For the sake of interests, it's okay to call grandpa, not to mention our little contradiction? Yoko said.
Qi Qi was probably so angry that he vomited blood. His ability is limited, and artists help each other. If an artist succeeds, it can also bring him fame, benefits, and shares. He was afraid that Yoko would drag him down, so he hurriedly turned his face with Yoko.
Unexpectedly, within a few days, that damn movie actually counterattacked!
With the popularity of "Pride in the Clouds", Yoko has a lot of job opportunities, and the company assigned him an agent, but Yoko refused.
Qi Qi thought that Yoko was nostalgic for his old love, and waited for him to turn around and apologize, so he ran up and knelt down to lick it.
How could it be that Yangzi didn't want to wait for Qi Qi at all, but wanted to wait for Lao Xie. Yoko really wants to talk to Lao Xie, and if it doesn't work, he will change to another agent.
In order to wait for Lao Xie, Yoko would rather lose these temporary notices and stay at home.
"That's enough, too." Chen Shuting said, "Ignore him. By the way, the company hasn't assigned you a temporary broker yet? ”
"Yes, yes, I don't want it." Yoko said, "Wait a few days, I don't know anyone for the time being, I'm afraid of being caught." ”
"Yes, you're a new face, the movie is still on the show, and fans may be more interested in your mystery. If you wait for another half a month, maybe it will be worth more. Chen Shuting said.
He was comforting Yoko, because Yoko was determined not to accept the company's assigned agent casually.
The direction of the entertainment industry is difficult to determine. Now many media want to interview Yoko, who knows if fans will have such patience after half a month?
In the entertainment industry where small fresh meat is endless, the last thing fans need is patience.
"No matter what, I'm suffering from Qi Qi, and I don't dare to cooperate with others easily!" Yangzi said, "I'll wait for Lao Xie's reply first." Lao Xie really doesn't want me, I will apply for an agent with the company again. ”
In addition to work, there are also some friends in the circle who ask Yoko to eat.
Yoko sometimes goes, sometimes she doesn't.
In the second week of its release, "Pride in the Clouds" received a box office of 370 million, with a total box office of 780 million.
Nearly 700 million has been earned.
Those investors who withdrew their capital before now regret it so much that their bowels are green!
"When the capital was withdrawn, didn't it say that Ruitang had gone downhill over the years and had a weak ability to adapt? Judging from this public relations crisis, Ruitang's adaptability is still second to none! The boss of the investor scolded the person in charge of investment.
"It's not like that." The head of the investment quibbles.
"What's going on?" The boss was furious. Obviously, he could earn hundreds of millions of dollars back, but as a result, the person in charge of bullshit couldn't bear a little thing, so he withdrew the funds.
Money does not make money, and the person in charge is a waste!
Now the waste is still quibbling, and the boss is angry.
"It's not that Ruitang's public relations ability is strong, this incident is completely an accident. There is an eighteenth-tier singer in Ruitang Company, and he proposed to say goodbye to emotional propaganda, talk about Li Chun's ideals, and talk about the conscience of filmmakers.
The little singer is not for the company, but for Song Shili. Didn't Song Shili play a role? That was his first film. This time, there was no mature response plan, it was all for the sake of gambling, and they were lucky to win. "The person in charge has already inquired about the situation clearly and told the boss.
"What eighteenth-tier little singer?" The boss of the investor frowned, and his anger did not abate.
"His name is Chen Shuting, he is a newcomer to last year's draft, just a hot topic figure, and then the popularity dropped, and his own black accounts were turned out, and what 'fake singing', 'insulting fans', 'fighting on the set' and other negative news became a joke." The person in charge was very disdainful of mentioning Chen Shuting.
"So, it's such a joke that saw the market opportunity and made Ruitang earn hundreds of millions, but you didn't?" The boss was not relieved at all, but became even angrier, almost roaring.
Then, the boss removed the person in charge and told him to get out.
Since then, the CEO of the investor has remembered the name "Chen Shuting".
Yoko had a lot of announcements, but he didn't answer them.
The main creators of "Pride in the Clouds", the male one Li Chun died; The second and third men openly boycotted the release of the movie, and now they have been scolded by fans so badly that the media will not invite them at all; And the fourth male Song Shili, he could hardly be contacted, and his whole person was missing.
Therefore, many announcements of "Pride in the Sky" are made by director Wang Yinwei and the heroine to catch up.
The first interview was broadcast on May 31, two weeks after the release of "Pride in the Clouds".
The famous host, director Wang Yinwei and the heroine talked eloquently, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
"Director Wang, you took a break for three years, and only recently came back to direct this movie. I heard that it almost couldn't be released, and the investor temporarily withdrew its investment, and you went through hardships and were reborn from the ashes to have today's box office miracle.
In the middle, do you have a lot of insights to share with our audience and fans? "Halfway through the interview, the moderator leads a topic.
"Feelings, quite a lot. In the past three years, I haven't actually rested, and I've been in charge of a few movies, but unfortunately the box office is not good, the department loses money, and the audience doesn't remember it very well. Wang Yinwei sighed, and seemed to be very touched.
Then, he smiled again and said to the host, "Look, I'm in my fifties today, and I'm almost in my twilight years. The juniors are talented and talented, and this industry will soon have no job for me.
You say this movie has a touch on me? Yes, of course. If this film fails, my career will come to an end with regret.
So, I want to thank the film, the creators, and the company for their investment. Most importantly, I would like to thank two people: Chen Shuting and Xie Zhaohan. ”
Wang Yinwei publicly talked about the experience of this crisis in the program.
He praised Chen Shuting and Xie Zhaohan throughout the show.
Chen Shuting's insistence on promoting the release and his suggestions for the end of the film are the keys to the success of the film.
"Yes, Chen Shuting gave me the vitality of my career, and I want to thank that young man!" When Wang Yinwei said this, his mood was very calm, but his eyes were extraordinarily profound.
His expression left a deep impression on the audience.
"Proud in the Sky" was released, and there were almost no interviews with the main creators, which was the first exclusive interview, and the broadcast rate was very high.
Chen Shuting became angry again.
Two days later, Chen Shuting's gold coins increased by 100. Therefore, that interview actually brought him 100,000 people to know him. Although he may not necessarily be a fan of him, he does know him.
Then, when talking about "Pride in the Sky", it is inevitable to talk about Chen Shuting.
When it comes to Chen Shuting, except for his appearance and his two recent songs, everything else is black material.
"Is Ruitang Company promoting Chen Shuting recently? Why is he everywhere? Help him buy songs and say they are original; Now the director is also making up nonsense to elevate him. What the hell is going on with him? ”
As soon as he said this, some people immediately objected: "How many actors and actresses are under Ruitang Media, do you know upstairs?" Other small companies said that for so many years, I have never seen Ruitang spend so much money to help artists hype, and Chen Shuting has no new works released"
"Yes, there are more artists who make money in Ruitang, and it is not Chen Shuting's turn to invest in hype."
"According to internal information, Chen Shuting was once hidden, and Ruitang would not praise him. These two times, it is estimated that the blind cat has really met the dead mouse. ”
It's all skeptical.
At the same time, there are also many voices of praise, far more than criticism and questioning.
"Saying that Chen Shuting has low EQ and low IQ, he is hacking him, right? I think he's talented and has a lot of emotional intelligence. ”
"He must have offended someone behind his back. The entertainment industry is like this, whoever is popular is black, think about Yuan Qiusheng, how miserable it was before to be hacked, even worse than Chen Shuting, people still win the actor now, Chen Shuting will definitely be able to get up"
"No matter what others say, I just love Chen Shuting. With his face, I ate this bowl of rice. ”
Chen Shuting's meager fans began to grow a lot again, rising to 2.2 million.
"Proud in the Clouds" still has half a month to be released, and Chen Shuting's total number of gold coins has reached 1,701, which has increased by more than 200 because of this incident alone, which is more than 200,000 yuan when converted into RMB; His meager fans have almost increased by nearly 200,000.
"Why do I think that I didn't star in a movie, but gained more than Yoko?" Chen Shuting thought to himself.
In the third week of the release of "Pride in the Clouds", the proportion of scheduled films dropped to 8.12%, and only won 90 million at the box office; In the last week, because the film scheduling rate dropped to 4.13%, only 450 million were harvested.
In the end, "Pride in the Sky" ended beautifully with a total box office of 9.05.
Ruitang Media made a net profit of 850 million, and Cai Xulin's position was safely preserved!
Director Wang Yinwei has returned to the status of a first-line director, and the investors who are looking for him to invest are about to step on the threshold.
Yangzi's fans have also slowly risen to 800,000, which is faster than Chen Shuting's increase. Looking for his movie scripts, advertisements, and TV series, all of them are pressed in the company, waiting for Yoko's new agent to start choosing.
Lao Xie also raised his eyebrows in the company and won everyone's respect and jealousy.
On the last day of the film's release, Lao Xie finally had time to sit down and chat with Chen Shuting and Yangzi.
"You and Song Shili, two little cubs, come to my house." Lao Xie called the statement, "Also bring Xiao Ling, I'll cook today"
Chen Shuting had a black line: "Brother Xie, didn't you say celebrating, why do you want to die?" ”
"Fuck you, Lao Tzu graduated from a chef school, the cooked vegetables can't kill you, and you can roll over quickly." Lao Xie scolded with a snort.
