Volume 1 Chapter 119 Hype
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
There was a knock on the door, and Lin Xiaozhi, who was burying his head in front of his desk and bowing his head to deal with a pile of documents, did not raise his head and answered: "Come in......"
Then there was a push on the door, followed by the sound of dense footsteps. Lin Xiaozhi frowned and raised his head to take a look, and his face was suddenly full of smiles, "You guys are here...... Sit......"
It turned out that the few people who pushed the door in were the leading actors of the crew of "Color is Empty", such as Qian Jiale, Ge Minhui, Sun Xing, Lin Haifeng, Yuan Jieying, Qiu Yueqing, Qiu Yuru and Yuan Jieying's agent Huang Bainian.
"Mr. Lin, I don't know what you asked us to do today?"
Qian Jiale saw that no one spoke, so he had to ask first. Xinya works in the ATV building, ATV, as one of the two major TV stations in Hong Kong, has a natural status in the entertainment industry, and low-level artists like him are still a little uncomfortable coming to ATV.
"Sit ......"
Lin Xiaozhi put down the pen in his hand with a smile, got up and walked to the water dispenser, helped pour a few times the water and handed it over, before he spoke: "At the finale banquet that day, I made an appointment with a few of you to come over today, and I also invited Huang Sheng, in fact, there are two things to discuss with you." This first thing has nothing to do with Miss Yuan, Ah Le, Ah Xing, a few of you will stay and we will talk about it. Now, let's focus on the promotion of the movie......"
Although he didn't say what he wanted a few people to stay and do, Qian Jiale and they didn't have a stupid person, and the excited smiles on the faces of the few people who had been hinted at by Lin Xiaozhi before couldn't hide it. That's right, as they thought, Lin Xiaozhi is ready to sign Qian Jiale, Sun Xing, Ge Minhui, Lin Haifeng, Qiu Yueqing, Qiu Yuru, the six leading actors of "Color is Empty" in one go, and become the first batch of signed artists of New Asia.
Not only did these few people Lin Xiaozhi have come into contact with hear the meaning of his words, but even Huang Bainian also understood. His eyes swept over Lin Xiaozhi, Qian Jiale and the others in turn, and after a while, he asked with a smile: "Mr. Lin, the publicity of "Color is Empty" should be your Xinya's business, why did you even call me?" ”
"Hehe, if this propaganda loses Huang Sheng, it will have to be lowered by a few grades......"
Lin Xiaozhi opened the drawer, took out a folder from the drawer, poured out several documents after opening it, looked through them one by one, and then beckoned several people to come forward and handed them a different document.
Huang Bainian was curious, and he also stepped forward with Yuan Jieying to take one each, looked down at his eyelids and was startled, and hurriedly looked up at Lin Xiaozhi and said, "Mr. Lin, what do you mean by this?" ”
He raised the document in his hand, and a few people next to him looked up curiously, and clearly saw such a sentence - "The wealthy man has a young empathy for a happy girl, and the manager confirmed the relationship, and bluntly said that he had sent flowers and asked women many times"
Yuan Jieying was even more surprised than him, covering her mouth with one hand, looking at Lin Xiaozhi with wide eyes in surprise, the expression on her face was indescribably strange, and she saw that the words on the document in her hand were particularly eye-catching: "The overlord style angered the jade girl, and the movie "Color is Empty" violated the agreement to prohibit artists from using naked substitutes, forcing artists to go into battle with real guns
"Because of the play, Qian Jiale and Yuan Jieying, who played the heroes and heroines of "Color is Empty", became attached to the play and began to procrastinate" Qian Jiale looked at the document he had been distributed, and he scratched his head before he turned around, not knowing what Lin Xiaozhi meant.
Sun Xing glanced at him, then looked at his own document, and his face was thoughtful: "In the past, I spent tens of millions of dollars, and my new work "Color is Empty" written and directed by myself is about to be released."
As for Ge Minhui and Lin Haifeng on the side, they were completely stunned.
"What's the matter, Huang Sheng, you also saw it, if we didn't communicate with everyone in advance, our propaganda would not have been able to be launched"
Lin Xiaozhi shrugged his shoulders, lit a cigarette for himself, and handed the cigarette pack to Huang Bainian.
"Thank you"
Huang Bainian refused the cigarette he handed over, frowned and looked at him and said, "Mr. Lin, what kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd?" Is this a propaganda ploy? How do I feel more like an attack, a smear ......"
After carefully looking at the president of New Asia in front of him, who was more than ten years younger than him, Huang Bainian felt that his head was a little overwhelmed. In this world, how can anyone write a manuscript to discredit and attack himself, as well as his own film company. Even if it's hype, few companies do that
Wait, hype
A flash of inspiration flashed through his head, and he suddenly remembered that there was a time in December last year, when the entire Hong Kong media was overwhelmed with news about their New Asia. There are good and bad among them, and there are many bad and few good ones. At that time, New Asia was about to release the popular third-level film "Can't Help It", which had just been painted not long ago, and after some crazy hype, the film with a low production cost swept away almost 18 million box office in Hong Kong, which really taught a lesson to the Hong Kong film industry.
Although New Asia never admitted that it was he who planned the hype, many media that reacted finally put the crime on New Asia's head.
Thinking of this, Huang Bainian's heart moved, and he heard Lin Xiaozhi say that he was looking for them to discuss the promotion of the new movie, could it be that he was ready to plan the second wave of hype again?
"In terms of music, we contacted the soundtrack genius Lu Guanting, and we also chose a famous artist to edit it, and I will always keep an eye on it. Judging from the efficiency of these days, it is conservatively estimated that the movie will be gross by the middle of the month at the latest. The film will come out, and if it is released, it will probably be in early or mid-March, and now is the time to start arranging publicity
Raising his eyebrows, Lin Xiaozhi flicked the ashes of his cigarette, stared at his eyes, and replied without fear: "As for what smear and attack, Huang Sheng, I have a completely different opinion from you. What era is this? What do citizens want to see in the era of eyeball economy? Is it a boring, immutable propaganda eulogy? No, no, no, I think what citizens want to see more are bizarre stories and explosive gossip news. Therefore, I will contact you today to come to the company to ventilate in advance. We have a complete publicity system in Xinya, and since the filming of "Color is Empty" has been completed, it is natural to start arranging publicity, and how to use the least publicity funds to achieve the most ideal publicity effect? Hype is the answer we get from the Propaganda Department of New Asia."
The meaning of his words is already very clear, I called you here today to remind you first, lest as soon as the overwhelming hype of New Asia comes out, you movie stars rush out to refute the rumors without knowing anything, which may destroy his layout
That's basically what it means
Huang Bainian also seemed to be interested, and after he explained his words clearly, the lord only thought about it for a moment and agreed to cooperate with New Asia's propaganda. Yuan Jieying is a signed artist under him, although he has a relationship with Huang Baiming, and has signed contracts with many artists in Xinyi City, but if Yuan Jieying can become popular, he will only get more benefits, how can he be unwilling.
As soon as he voted in favor, Yuan Jieying and Qian Jiale were even more unlikely to object, and after carefully reading the publicity plan assigned to each other, he nodded and agreed to cooperate with the company's publicity.
Subsequently, Huang Bainian took Yuan Jieying and left first, leaving time and space to Lin Xiaozhi and Qian Jiale.
As soon as Huang Bainian left, Lin Xiaozhi got ready, took out several contracts from the drawer that had been prepared early in the morning, and handed them to the six people: "The cooperation of the movie "Color is Empty" has given me a clear understanding of the acting skills of the six of you. There are a few contracts here, you each take them back to see first, if you feel satisfied, then congratulations, you will become the first batch of signed artists of New Asia, I can guarantee you that every one of the contracts can be 100% fulfilled by New Asia. Of course, if you are not satisfied with the contract, you can also talk to me privately. Even if a few people don't plan to sign a contract with New Asia, it doesn't matter, the business is not benevolent, the Hong Kong film industry is not big, is there one more friend and one more way? ”
took out several different contracts and handed them to them at once, Lin Xiaozhi actually did not do it properly. Because this will inevitably cause a few people who have a better relationship with each other, and even join forces with Xinya to get better treatment. There's no way, he's busy during this time, so he had to give up one by one to come to the door to negotiate, Yu Crisp showed all the contracts at once, and it was best to negotiate, and it was okay if he couldn't talk about it.
Lin Xiaozhi has decided to have a showdown with Qiu Degen in the near future, and is ready to buy his shares in Xinya. Although he still has more than 20 million yuan in his hands, there are many places to spend money, so it is best for the company to have its own signed artists, and if he can't have it, it doesn't matter.
After giving them the contracts prepared for each of them, Lin Xiaozhi didn't keep them, and quickly sent away a few people who were ecstatic and couldn't help but want to go back to see the contract early
The morning was spent immersed in the propaganda plan and processing the company documents he had piled up during the whole period, and by the time Lin Xiaozhi felt that his stomach was like thunder, Zhou Huimin had already knocked on the door and entered his office with an English book.
"Miss Zhou" Lin Xiaozhi smiled at her kindly, "Thank you very much for your hard work during this time, with the help of your good teacher, my English level has skyrocketed."
Zhou Huimin pursed her lips and smiled, revealing two sweet dimples on her cheeks, "I just want to thank Lin Sheng, so that I can get a lot of income and fulfill a wish when I was a child?" ”
"Oh? What wishes? Lin Xiaozhi asked curiously, and immediately stood up and stretched. Xu is used to having such a woman by his side, he rarely puts any president in front of Zhou Huimin, and he has always been very easy-going.
The charming eyes blinked, and she suddenly smiled toothily, and saw him in a trance: "I, when I was a child, I dreamed of being a kindergarten teacher one day"
