Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 403: Flags Fluttering in the Wind

As Xinghuo Film and Television and others waved goodbye.

The people from Coca-Cola Company boarded the bus swiftly and prepared to return home contentedly.

That's right.

They cost money.

But that doesn’t mean you can’t spend money happily.

The purpose of investing advertising money is to see results. For brands, encountering high-quality projects is a very happy thing. Even if it costs more money, there is no need to worry, as long as it is effective.

I’m afraid that I’ll spend the money and end up with nothing.

“The project is good.”

As soon as the car started, Liu Qihua immediately looked through the materials provided by Xinghuo Films: "There are many scenes that can be applied in the play, which can play a very good role in promoting the product."

"Come up with a plan as soon as possible and start our quotation process as soon as possible."

"Ok."

The assistant in a suit beside him nodded quickly.

It's rare to have your boss say two projects are good.

"what."

The female assistant's moving eyes accidentally stopped and looked at the entrance next to her in surprise: "This car belongs to Pepsi people!!!"

Hear the word Pepsi.

Everyone in the car turned their heads.

The people in the car that was entering Xinghuo Film and Television nearby also cast their eyes over here almost at the same time.

Although the collision lasted only one or two seconds, the hostility in their eyes was clearly visible.

As old enemies and rivals.

They are so familiar with each other that they even have a deep impression of each other's vehicles.

"Pepsi."

The female assistant pursed her lips slightly and quickly looked at the people from Xinghuo Film and Television standing under the wind and rain corridor in the rearview mirror: "Did Xinghuo and the others do this on purpose?"

"What do you think?"

Liu Qihua shook his head and continued to look through the information slowly: "It's just a normal way to raise the price. In the final analysis, it still depends on the quality of the project itself. We also use tricks."

"For the same price or even slightly less."

"Spark Films."

“We will definitely be considered.”

Thinking of this, he leaned back happily.

There is an endorsement that tempts the other party.

Under the same conditions, I hold the initiative. I believe Li Luo will not miss the opportunity to sign a big contract.

"what happened?"

When he got no response, he looked at his assistant in confusion.

"if."

The female assistant licked her lips and smiled awkwardly: "What if the people from Pepsi also want to sign Li Luo?"

A light word.

The smile on Liu Qihua's face instantly turned dull.

Looking at the departing vehicle of Coca-Cola Company, Li Luo smiled and put down his waving arms.

The so-called Gemini Project.

The other person must be Jay Chou!

There is no need for any memory of the previous life at all. Liu Qihua actually let it slip at the very beginning.

The beverage product placement in the movie "Slam Dunk" is from Pepsi. Why would such a delicious guy go to the filming site for no reason? He is just trying to poach people. He can't be that bored.

Although Sprite is not as popular as Pepsi.

But the current situation is that it is obvious that we need to make an effort to catch up.

otherwise.

There will be no Gemini Project.

It's good to make an effort. How can you make money if others don't make an effort? Besides, Jay Chou hasn't turned into Milk Tea Star yet, but his momentum is indeed strong enough that he can endorse Sprite together with others.

In terms of popularity, it can also be pushed up a lot.

"Sprite!!!"

Lin Yue next to him sighed.

The employees behind him all looked at their boss with shining eyes.

If they could successfully negotiate a contract with Sprite, it would mean another endorsement worth tens of millions. Some people calculated their own salaries and discovered with great pain that they would not be able to earn this much money even if they worked until they died.

When the gap is too big, there is no jealousy.

All that is left is envy and admiration.

"No more Sprite."

Rubbing his cheeks, Li Luo's face once again showed a bright smile: "Next, let's have Pepsi!"

With the warm welcome from everyone at Xinghuo Film and Television.

The people from PepsiCo got off the bus one after another with uncertain minds.

After a handshake.

The same process was repeated.

Advertising placement in television and movies is a process of negotiation between two parties, and the stronger producers can force the brand to negotiate.

The corresponding advertising space.

The one with the highest price gets it.

The weak producers can only take the initiative and try to make as much money as possible. Even if they cannot get financial sponsorship, they can save some production costs if they can get product sponsorship.

Given the attention paid to "Fall in Love with You", it's natural that various brands came to negotiate.

Within the next few days.

Li Luo was so exhausted from talking that his mouth was dry.

There are really too many types of products that can be implanted in modern dramas, including beverages, alcohol, cars, mobile phones, computers, cameras, clothes, furniture and even Internet brands.

Fast-moving consumer goods and the like are very easy to negotiate.

They agreed to the offer very happily when it came to money and products.

It’s more troublesome when it comes to more expensive items. It’s easy to deal with mobile phones and computers, and it’s okay to give a few as filming props.

Can be automotive.

It can only be in the form of funds + vehicle borrowing.

Everyone in the drama is either a big anchor, a partner in a law firm, or a domineering CEO. Li Luo can only have talks with higher-end brands such as BBA.

This brand of vehicle is expensive.

It can easily be tens or even millions.

No matter how tough the crew is, they would be embarrassed to ask the brand to send them a few cars.

But that’s fine too.

You can get a few more car models to take pictures of.

Business, family, sports cars and other types can be arranged.

The texture is more substantial.

Although he would rather pay more for lower-end brand cars, he reluctantly rejected them. When it comes to filming, Li Luo feels that it still has to be consistent with the character's positioning.

The kind of scene where a rich second-generation accompanies his girlfriend to Metersbonwe to buy clothes, and then looks amazed.

The kind of cool and awesome look that one gets when he contracts a fish pond.

He couldn't take any pictures at all.

While the marketing department is busy as hell, the film and television production department has no time to rest. Once the selection is made, it should not be delayed too long. No one will keep the schedule there forever, and they must not delay others from finding a job.

come here.

Things are getting very interesting again.

The pay for major supporting roles is kept low, and some are even worse off being paid to appear in the drama.

But everyone enjoys it.

Instead, it's a minor supporting role.

The pay given by Xinghuo Films is based on market prices.

In response to Lin Yue's questions, Li Luo briefly explained his thoughts. Those big supporting roles are supported by the show, so their pay should be reduced if possible and maintained within a reasonable range.

But the young actor relies on this little money to make a living.

The proportion of film remuneration is already healthy enough, there is no need to continue to exploit it in this regard, and you should be generous when it is time to be generous.

Adhering to this idea.

The staff of the Film and Television Department made calls one by one based on the list of actors provided by Li Luo.

Quickly confirm the remuneration and schedule.

Before the audition.

Li Luo basically never gave any definite answers.

Hints are hints only when no definite notification has been received.

No one can feel at ease.

The same is true for Jiang Shuying.

To be honest, the girl has been feeling very nervous these days and has been listless about doing anything. She wanted to test the waters, but after hesitating for a long time in front of the phone, she still didn't dare to make the call, for fear of annoying Li Luo.

I can't suppress my upset thoughts.

Jiang Shuying changed into a pair of sneakers and went straight to the school gym.

Shanghai Theatre Academy is located in the city center and occupies a very small area.

There is no playground, and the only thing available for students to exercise is a large gym.

Even during summer vacation.

However, there are also many students who stay in school.

The rent in Shanghai is extremely expensive, so most students choose to live in the school, saving as much as possible.

There are quite a lot of people in the gym for this reason.

Jiang Shuying found a seat in a corner, walked slowly on the treadmill for a few minutes, and then ran at a steady pace with her long legs. Her swinging ponytail attracted attention from time to time.

Even among the many beautiful girls in the theater, her sexy figure still stands out.

There is this gaze.

It's not surprising.

Jiang Shuying also habitually put on a cold expression to dissuade those who were eager to approach her.

After running for ten minutes or so, the girl was out of breath.

Crystal clear sweat.

Slide slowly down the slender neck.

"Sparse shadow."

A sudden shout made her slow down a little. When she saw the person walking on the treadmill next to her, her eyes became extremely complicated, showing dissatisfaction, unwillingness, and confusion.

Of course, there is no lack of friendliness.

Although I don’t understand why the other party also got the invitation.

But if nothing unexpected happens, after a while we will all be colleagues working in the same company.

There is no competition for resources among newcomers.

It's more about supporting each other.

"Xiaochen."

Thinking of this, she responded with a smile.

"Tsk."

Wang Xiaochen pressed the treadmill button and couldn't help looking at his classmate: "Tell me the truth, what skin care products do you use? Your skin is so good, it looks so hydrated!"

"really?"

Jiang Shuying wiped the sweat off his face with his hand and said with a bright smile: "What's good about it? I'll be satisfied if I can be like you!"

There are so many girls in the class.

Although Wang Xiaochen is not the sexiest one, her skin is indeed top-notch.

before this.

I am also slightly inferior to the other party.

But she has been looking very fresh and hydrated these days, which is an unexpected surprise.

Not sure if it had anything to do with that incident, Jiang Shuying's steps suddenly became a little messy. She quickly adjusted her breathing and asked in a seemingly nonchalant manner, "By the way, do you have any news?"

"No."

Wang Xiaochen quickened his running speed, a worried look on his face: "I was just about to ask you, there has been no movement since the audition!"

The excitement of auditioning, the excitement of celebrating.

It's all vivid in my mind.

But after two or three days, there was no news, and an inexplicable panic suddenly surged in my heart.

I woke up in the middle of the night.

I was afraid that what I was experiencing was just a dream.

In this extremely tormenting and anxious mood, Wang Xiaochen made the same choice as Jiang Shuying and went to the gym to sweat out the stress.

The two of them stopped talking, and they just kept on stomping on the treadmill.

The other one is sweet and lovely.

The two girls, who were nearly 1.7 meters tall, got together, stretched out their long legs and ran freely, with their ponytails swinging left and right. The eyes of the guy who was swinging the weights lit up, and he exerted great strength on the dumbbells.

Looking at the posture, he seemed to be eager to swing the iron lump in his hand to produce sparks.

"A group of bloodthirsty ants~~~"

The sudden ringing of the cell phone made Wang Xiaochen stagger while running fast, and he almost fell off the treadmill.

The girl slowed down in a hurry.

Excitedly took out the mobile phone covered with sequins.

"Hello."

"It's me. It's me."

"Yes, yes, really? No problem, I can accept it, no problem, absolutely no problem."

Wang Xiaochen nodded repeatedly, which made Jiang Shuying feel very anxious. She quickly turned off the treadmill and wanted to get closer to listen carefully to what the other party was saying.

"Okay, okay, let's go to the crew hotel to sign the contract, right?"

"Ok, Ok."

Wang Xiaochen's pretty face flushed red, and she swallowed hard: "Well, I'm embarrassed to ask, but during the audition, Luo Ge asked me if I had a contract with a company, so your company did..."

"Uh huh huh!!!"

The girl nodded quickly and covered her mouth tightly with her hands.

"Good~"

With a tearful tone, she forced out of her mouth, "I see. I'll need to bring a lawyer with me then, right?"

"Thank you, thank you, I understand!!!"

Wang Xiaochen was no longer just excited at this moment. She was so excited that tears were about to overflow from her eyes. Her full chest was rising and falling rapidly. Jiang Shuying was afraid that she would not be able to breathe in the next moment.

But she didn't notice.

My breathing became heavy because of this series of rapid words.

My heart was like it had stepped on the accelerator.

Speeding on the highway.

When the classmate put down the phone with trembling fingers, Jiang Shuying's rapid breathing stopped instantly, and he stared at the other person with his eyes as big as copper bells.

"spark."

Wang Xiaochen cried with joy and nodded repeatedly, saying, "I got the role and the contract. Brother Luo asked me to play Mei Ting."

"Play his assistant!!!"

When she said the last part, the sweet girl almost screamed with excitement.

That wasn't the role she was auditioning for.

The results are better.

Even more wonderful.

The character played has a name, and people in the know know what it means. It represents lines, close-ups, and long shots, which allows for ample room for performance.

For students in school, this starting point is extremely high.

Although Wang Xiaochen had played one or two small roles in other crews before, the importance of this role is incomparable.

Gulp and swallow.

Jiang Shuying was also happy for her classmates.

When I thought about my role, I became as anxious as an ant on hot pan.

"Congratulations!!!"

Looking at the extremely excited Wang Xiaochen, she calmed herself down and was about to open her arms to congratulate him.

"Bell~~~"

At this moment, the cell phone in her trouser pocket vibrated violently.

"Hurry up."

Wang Xiaochen was so excited that he jumped up and down, pointing his finger quickly towards her pocket.

Jiang Shuying took out her cell phone like lightning and looked at the unfamiliar incoming call number. With her trembling thumb, the girl pressed the answer button heavily.

I have a rough idea in my mind.

But nothing has been settled.

A heart that is hanging in the air can never be put down.

"Hello."

Jiang Shuying's voice was trembling.

"Hello."

The voice on the other end was clear and straightforward, "Excuse me, is this Miss Jiang Shuying?"

"Yes."

Even though she was talking on the phone, the girl nodded subconsciously.

"Hello."

The background was a bit noisy, but the voice was still clear: "This is Xinghuo Films. The result of Miss Jiang Shuying's audition for "Silent Separation" has been announced."

"After careful consideration, Spark Films has decided to invite you to play the role of Xiao Xiao in the play."

"If you accept the invitation."

The voice on the phone paused for a moment, and then continued, "Ms. Jiang Shuying, please go to the hotel where the crew is located within three days. Our colleagues in the legal department will communicate the specific details with you."

"Accept, accept!"

Hearing the name Xiao Xiao, Jiang Shuying's breath was hot: "No problem, I accept it."

The image of Li Luo in her mind instantly became taller, handsome, badass, fierce, and extremely reliable.

"very good."

The voice on the other end showed no sign of stopping, and became even more enthusiastic: "There is one more thing. Spark Films feels that Miss Jiang Shuying fits the spirit of our company very well."

"Positive, enterprising, and full of enthusiasm for life."

"We would like to invite you to join Spark Films and become a member of our company."

To Jiang Shuying now, the words of the employees of Xinghuo Film and Television seem like clouds floating in the sky, always giving people a sense of uncertainty.

I couldn't hear clearly what the other party was saying!
Next.

Just screams of excitement.

There was also an excited hug with Wang Xiaochen, and the cheers of the two echoed in every corner of the gym.

The two girls, dressed coolly, hugged each other excitedly.

Look at their sweaty vests.

Looking at the two pairs of thunders colliding and squeezing each other, Brother Iron Swing was completely dumbfounded. The already extremely heavy dumbbells in his hands suddenly became light. With a roar, his arms were raised high.

When someone is happy, someone else will be unhappy.

As Chen Chichi and Du Jiang cheered one after another, Zheng Kai, who was lying on the bed, muttered something, turned over and pulled the quilt to cover himself.

Some people are annoying.

Some people don't know how to react.

After Zhang Songwen received the call, he supported his knees and slowly sat down on the curb, looking at the cars coming and going, then squinted his eyes to feel the scorching sun, with an expression on his face that looked like he was half crying and half laughing.

From one end of the world to the other, every phone call made by Xinghuo Film and Television affects the joys, sorrows, anger and happiness of many people.

Emotions are aroused.

But it's not just them.

In movie theaters scattered across China, as Li Luo waved the baton in his hand, the emotions of countless moviegoers rose and fell, enjoying the rare leisure and entertainment in the dreamlike world of light and shadow.

The casting of Xinghuo Film and Television only caused a small wave in the industry.

"Raging Fire" continues to soar at the box office.

That's the real surging waves.

Amidst the constant beating of this fierce wave, even though the crew of "Heaven's Mouth" struggled hard, they were still forced to face the moment when the film was withdrawn from the schedule by major theaters.

Being angry and shouting are of no use.

The three hungry wolves and the newly joined "Secret" worked together to tear up all its screening schedules in an instant.

There wasn't even a splash of water.

It was completely submerged.

Movies like "SPL" that were allocated some screenings finally got a little breathing space. Nicholas Tse, who was originally full of confidence, completely lost his confidence at this time, just hoping to stabilize the situation and prevent the box office from continuing to fall.

Jay Chou, who had just joined the battlefield, also felt the heavy pressure.

Fortunately, the types are completely different.

Able to avoid Li Luo's crazy swinging of the sword.

One hundred and twenty million.

One hundred and thirty million, one hundred and forty million.

The figures that Berna continued to release caused a lot of noise in the industry.

When the box office revenue successfully exceeded 150 million, all major entertainment media outlets spontaneously launched extensive coverage again, among which the most eye-catching was the photos produced by "Southern Metropolis".

Spider-Man stepped back in horror, and the black shadow of Li Luo holding a gun moved forward oppressively.

With a very vivid picture.

It is very intuitive to show that the box office performance of "Raging Fire" successfully surpassed that of "Spider-Man 3".

The summer heat wave blew away the flying newspapers, and the box office performance of "Raging Fire" also crossed the 170 million mark while struggling forward. At this time, the one-month release schedule is about to end.

Although many cinemas have applied to extend their keys.

But in the overall situation.

It doesn't matter much anymore.

But despite this, it is already a remarkable achievement.

Compared with the mainland box office of 20 to 30 million for films like "Flash Point" and "True Men", it can be said to be a crushing victory.

Adding to the box office of around 2007 million in Hong Kong Island, Yu Dong unceremoniously asked his colleagues in the publicity and promotion department to launch the slogan of breaking million, making the flag of "Raging Fire" flutter majestically in the summer of .

There was a flurry of footsteps in the airport, and a group of people walked quickly towards the terminal exit.

The one taking the lead walked with vigorous steps.

Although he was wearing a mask, his posture exuded a sense of elegance and elegance.

This attracted the attention of passers-by.

"Well, I'm in Shanghai."

Li Luo held the phone and ignored the looks: "I can't stay in Beijing anymore. I have to stay out of the spotlight. All kinds of requests are coming to me like snowflakes."

"No, Brother Changdian, you don't want me to be on the interview show, do you?"

"Well, I'd rather owe you a drink."

"Hahaha."

"I'll hide in the crew for a few months. I'm not talking about you. You're treating me like a fat pig now. You're eager to cut a piece of meat from me. Do you think it's easy for me to earn these few dollars?"

“I don’t even want to add an extra boiled egg to my instant noodles.”

Hearing his boss's loud talking, Zhao Xuejing almost stumbled.

Tighten the suitcase handle.

She couldn't help but roll her eyes at the ceiling.

As an administrative assistant, she is quite familiar with some information that has not yet been or will never be released to the outside world.

Let’s put aside the box office of “Raging Fire.”

The advertising placement costs for "Silent Separation" alone were close to 15 million.

There is also a Sprite endorsement advertisement.

The number she secretly glanced at when signing the contract kept her awake all night. 30000000, this string of zeros kept turning in her mind, making her toss and turn in bed.

It only takes Luo Ge three years to earn the money that he could not earn in three lifetimes.

thirty million.

Thinking back on it now, I feel a little weak in the knees.

And now.

They even said adding a braised egg wasn’t enough!!!

Zhao Xuejing felt so sore that his teeth itched and his back teeth creaked.

Moving forward.

Soon we arrived outside the airport.

Several vehicles from the crew were already waiting there to pick them up, so they immediately quickened their pace and walked over. Li Luo, who had just hung up the phone, looked helplessly at his vibrating Nokia.

"Hello, Editor Su."

Amid the screams of fans, he quickly got into the car and said, "Just say what you want to say, don't beat around the bush. I have so many calls right now that I can't handle them all."

"The Bazaar Star Charity Night on the 8th of next month?"

"Ah."

"It's not impossible, just find me a few cover interviews. Of course, they won't be me, but the artists signed to my company."

"one?"

"Look at how stingy you are. Are we still good friends?"

At Lin Yue's signal, Zhao Xuejing quickly grabbed the door handle and slammed the car door shut. The words that must not be heard by outsiders instantly drifted away with the wind.
