Chapter 712: The Problem of Praise

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Yan Xin left the airport in Beijing. At this time, Feng Xi was still at school and didn't have time to come and pick him up.

It was Zeng Yan who came to pick him up, and she came in a car. Now Zeng Yan is in a very good mood, and her face is more confident.

Her self-confidence was given by the TV series starring Yang Mi at the beginning. Because that TV series made her money.

That TV series was launched during the Spring Festival, and the ratings were very high, and it easily became the No. 1 TV series in the ratings, and it also caused heated discussions on the Internet.

The first round was broadcast on Mango Channel, and the ratings were the first in the same period. And such data also made the second round of broadcast rights sell well.

Of course, it has brought a lot of profits to Starlight Film and Television Investment Company, which is one of the investors. Not much investment, a lot of profits.

The only regret is that they only invested 10 million in this project and could only get a small part of the profit.

If you can invest a little more, you can earn more. But anyway, after all, it still made money.

The first project invested in made a big profit, which is certainly a good thing. The dividends from the investment have been credited to the account.

There will be money coming in in the future. Moreover, because the ratings of this series are relatively high, the main creative team is already preparing to make a sequel.

This time, there is still Starlight Film and Television Investment Company participating in the investment. There are many people who want to participate in the sequel investment, but the team will still give priority to the previous investors.

Especially in Starlight Film and Television Investment Company, people only invest money and do not interfere in the production of content, which saves the team a lot of trouble.

Although a few people were also pushed into the crew, they all played insignificant small supporting roles, and there was not an important role.

It's a rarity. This time their share of investment is a bit higher than the last time. Now that the popularity of this TV series is still there, it is foreseeable that if the sequel is launched, it will also attract a lot of attention, as long as the level of the first part can be maintained, the ratings will not be low.

has the popularity of the first part, and the price of the second part can be higher. The investment in the sequel was also recognized by Yan Xin - because in his memory, the sequel to that TV series was also quite popular.

Some of the projects invested last year have also come to fruition one after another. Within two or three months, there will be two TV series in which they participated in the investment.

It's just that those two TV series can't make money, but with the success of this project, their investment is still profitable.

The success of this project not only brings profits to the company, but also proves Zeng Yan's investment vision and her ability.

In her opinion, this is more important than making money. In front of Yan Xin, she is also more confident. โ€”โ€”Although this project was finally decided by Yan Xin, this project was found by her, and she also suggested that the company invest, and the biggest credit lies with her.

Here in Yan Xin, she proved that she can bring profits to the company. Inexplicably, I felt that my waist rod was a little stiffer.

Of course, it's not that she swelled in front of Yan Xin. It's just that my mentality is not as humble as before.

I used to worry that I didn't prove my worth and would be kicked out by my boss.

Now it's not so worrying. For the boss, of course, the attitude is still respectful. She understands that the abilities she has are not worth mentioning in front of capital.

โ€”โ€”In front of her, Yan Xin, who has assets of billions, is undoubtedly already capital. It's just that Yan Xin doesn't regard himself as a capitalist in his heart, he feels that he is a person who is very short of money.

If you want to do this, you don't have money, and if you want to do that, you don't have money, and many times you think about how to raise more money.

He does not have the consciousness that he is already a capitalist, nor does he have the arrogance of a tycoon, and he does not feel that he is superior to others.

Zeng Yan felt very humble in front of him, and that was because she herself had put herself in a humble position.

Yan Xin didn't think she was a humble person. When facing her, it is still more polite.

This time, he could clearly feel that Zeng Yan had a lot more self-confidence, and he also knew that it was because he made money for the company, and of course he was happy in his heart.

Although the little money earned by this project is nothing to him, however, if there are more such projects, the company will make more money, the name will be bigger, and there will be more investment opportunities in the future, and he can slowly develop and grow in this industry.

That's a good momentum. Although the overall scale of this industry is like that, it is far worse than the game industry.

But if you can gain a firm foothold in this industry, you can still make some money. What he cares more about is the traffic that this industry can bring.

When the scale is large, more stars can be cultivated in the future, and those stars are walking traffic.

They may not have so many channels to monetize traffic, but Yan Xin has it here. He has a live streaming platform.

He has an e-commerce company. It even has its own e-commerce platform. These all require traffic. It is also possible to monetize traffic.

If this film and television company can create that traffic, it can save him a lot of money.

In the car, Zeng Yan told Yan Xin about something. Among the artists signed by his own company, there is a beautiful girl who plays the palace maid in Yang Mi's TV series, there are about two or three episodes of scenes, and the appearance time adds up to ten minutes, and then is taken by an advertiser, and receives a clothing advertisement, the price is 100,000, shoot a small advertisement, and a set of photos, which will be placed on the Internet.

There are several artists sent by the company to participate in that TV series, all of whom are inconspicuous characters. Whoever gets such a contract, that's it.

Of course, it's not because of how well you act, there is no opportunity to show your acting skills at all - and there is really no acting skills to speak of.

can be looked at by people for one reason - beautiful. There is also a discussion about her on the Internet, and the discussion is also about her appearance, and the evaluation is that the palace maid looks more beautiful than the mother.

Zeng Yan talked to Yan Xin about this, and there was only one purpose: "She is also a little popular now, it seems that the audience is okay, will the company praise her in the future?" "Now Starlight Film and Television Investment Company is a small company in the entertainment industry, and it has no status at all.

If it weren't for Zeng Yan who had been in this circle for so long and had accumulated a little connection, she wouldn't even be able to find an opportunity to invest in projects.

In those investment projects, they have only a small share. If you want to play an important role in an investment project, you really don't have that kind of qualifications now.

Even if it is the project of Brother Shanzheng, who has a dominant investment position, people do not want them to arrange roles.

A start-up company is not so worthy of attention. But if it develops and slowly has a status, there will be more investment in some film and television projects in the future, and there will be more insiders who rely on them for food, then you can arrange some important roles for your own artists and make them stars.

The girl she said was named Mo Yingying, Yan Xin had a little impression, she was a girl in her early twenties, she was really beautiful, fair-skinned, and tall.

However, in the memory of his previous life, there is no such person in the entertainment industry. Whether to hold it or not, this made him hesitate a little.

If he is popular, he will definitely have an impression. I don't have an impression at all, which means that in the original time and space, this girl has been obsessed with everyone and has not had the opportunity to become popular.

On the other hand, it also shows that this girl has no future. It's not just that if you look good, you will be able to hold it.

There are very beautiful women in this circle, but there are many people who have not been popular. Some are even box office poison.

Yan Xin didn't invest for love, of course he didn't want his company to hold a box office poison, wouldn't that dig a hole for himself?

But on the other hand, this girl named Mo Yingying is a signed artist of their company, but this company is a company founded by him, and there was no such company in his previous life.

Perhaps, in the original time and space, without the existence of this company, this girl named Mo Yingying would not have had the opportunity to step into the entertainment industry at all, let alone get the opportunity to perform in that popular TV series, so naturally she would not be able to become popular.

If so, it doesn't have to be unacceptable. After hesitating for a while, he asked, "Is her acting okay?" Zeng Yan was a little embarrassed: "In terms of acting, she often goes to receive acting training, but after all, she is not professional, and she does not have much time to receive training, and there is nothing outstanding in her acting skills." โ€

"Young and beautiful, it's okay to act in idol dramas, but you don't need more outstanding acting skills." Yan Xin smiled,

"What I want to ask is, is her acting skills at the level of an idol drama actor?" Zeng Yan thought for a while: "Look at who you compare with." The tone wasn't so certain.

There is really no faith in this regard. Anyway, she didn't see the existence of such a thing as acting skills from Mo Yingying.

However, I didn't see how inconsistent her performance in the TV series was. So can't be sure.

"You can try it, but you can't be too blind," Yan Xin said,

"Next time I have a good opportunity, I will push it to her and see if she can afford it. If the evaluation is okay, you can give her a better chance, and even give her the opportunity to be the protagonist. Zeng Yan nodded: "I know." He smiled and said: "She accepted such an advertisement, earned tens of thousands of yuan, was very happy, and told me that she wanted to invite the boss to a meal to express her gratitude." Boss, are you available? "The remuneration for that advertisement is 100,000 yuan, but what falls on the girl is 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, and it is also income before tax.

But for a young man who has just entered the industry, it is also a lot of income.

It's normal to be happy. But if you want to invite Yan Xin to dinner, whether you want to thank him or have other ideas, it is unknown.

Anyway, Zeng Yan didn't think it was just a simple thanks. She has been in this circle for more than ten years, and she knows very well what this circle is like.

No matter how simple a person is, after entering this circle for a long time, he will become what the people in the circle should be.

She knows, but she won't stand in the way. She will also pass on what should be preached. - Who knows if the boss likes this bite or not?

It's just that when I talked to Yan Xin about this, the smile on my face was a little ambiguous. Yan Xin shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm very busy now, running here and there, where do I have so much time to eat with people?" You just tell her that what she gets now is all in exchange for her efforts, and she doesn't need to thank anyone. If you want to achieve more in the future, you just need to put in more effort, and you don't need to invite me to this meal. โ€

"Okay, I'll tell her." Zeng Yan said. The mood is quite complicated. The boss doesn't love women, which is a good thing, at least he won't make some loss-making investments in order to make a beautiful girl popular.

But on the other hand, the owner doesn't have such a preference, and it's not much of a good thing. In this way, many women have no chance.

In silence, Yan Xin asked her again: "By the way, how is your niece doing in the company?" Zeng Yan was stunned for a moment, and a smile rippled on her face: "You said Xiyue, she works very hard, she actively participates in performance training classes and dance classes, and she practices for hours every day at home. When he said these words, he thought to himself: "He deliberately asked about Xiyue, which shows that this girl still has a status in his heart, which is a good thing." If Xiyue can seize this opportunity, she will be rich and wealthy in the future. โ€

"That's good," Yan Xin said with a smile,

"Tell her, work hard, and there will be a lot of opportunities in the future." Zeng Yan was even happier, and said: "Boss, you can go and tell her yourself, that girl admires you very much, I told her, she may not be able to listen, but if you tell her, she will definitely be able to listen." Yan Xin was stunned: "Worship me? What do I have to worship? "He really doesn't know what he has in good terms other than money.

But money isn't worth cultivating, right? If you really want to worship the rich, you should also worship those who are really rich, and the rich are on the list, not small people like him.

"Boss, you are really too modest," Zeng Yan said with a smile,

"You are so talented, you can write so many classic songs at a young age, you are so successful in starting a business, you are self-made, and you have become a billionaire at such a young age, isn't it worth cultivating?" After a pause, he said: "So good, so handsome, I don't know how many girls take you as the lover of your dreams!" When she said this, Yan Xin was a little embarrassed.

Whenever someone said that he was talented, he felt embarrassed. Because the so-called talent doesn't really belong to him.

He just copied it. He himself never thought it was his merit, only that it was his stain.

However, Zeng Yan explained this, and he understood. Indeed, in front of outsiders, he is very good, not just rich.
