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

Chapter 514 Why Did It Start Broadcasting?

"loan?"

"Why would I need a loan? I don't need one!"

Just as Lin Yue had predicted, a resolute rejection came from the other end of the phone, so decisive that it was almost without any hesitation.

It made her chuckle softly, rubbing her forehead.

My boss is extremely driven in everything he does.

However, he is outrageously conservative when it comes to finance. Apart from buying real estate, investing in game companies, and acquiring film and television copyrights, he has absolutely no interest in the stock market.

Especially loans.

They abhorred such things even more.

Lin Yue had never understood stocks before. It was a money game that people with certain assets found hard to resist, especially when the market was so bullish.

However, this year, the financial crisis swept the globe, and Lehman Brothers' stock price plummeted.

Her own investments also suffered heavy losses.

This way.

Lin Yue stopped commenting on her boss's choice. Although his investment strategy was conservative, at least the money was safely in his pocket, which was better than losing millions like she had thrown money down the drain.

As long as the investment in filmmaking is aggressive, it's fine.

There's no need to act like a madman in the financial markets.

She just couldn't understand things when it came to loans.

Film and television projects.

The capital recovery cycle is extremely long.

Therefore, many film and television companies rely heavily on loans for project operations. The advantages of this approach are obvious; at the very least, it greatly improves the efficiency of capital operation.

With the same amount of capital, you can leverage it through a bank to start several more projects.

I really can't figure it out.

Why is this guy so resistant?

They kept saying things like "thirty years," "interest," "crushing people," and "vampires," which she couldn't understand at all. She was completely baffled and could only attribute it to the saying that no one is perfect.

Her own boss is already excellent enough; if he had no flaws, she would be scared to look at him.

He was just looking at the preliminary terms in his hand.

Lin Yue smiled.

"Luo Ge."

Manager Lin tapped the table lightly with his pen and calmly asked the person on the other end of the phone, "What if this loan is interest-free and has an extremely flexible repayment period?"

The sound traveled thousands of miles away in an instant, carried by the radio waves.

Li Luo immediately perked up.

"Ok?"

He excitedly gripped his phone, but quickly realized something was amiss: "Such a windfall is out of the ordinary? Why is there no interest? How much funding is available? What are the terms of use?"

"Hahaha."

His reaction made Lin Yue shake her head and chuckle.

This guy really hates loans; his first thought is whether there might be any traps involved.

"It's not that there's no interest."

Manager Lin picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and chuckled, "The interest rate is very low, and Tonglu will cover this portion of the interest, so it becomes interest-free when it reaches us."

"A quota of one hundred million."

"The conditions put forward are twofold: first, our original initial investment in Xinghuo Film and Television cannot be reduced as a result."

"Secondly, the loaned funds must be used for their designated purpose."

"Borrowing from this, using it for this purpose!"

Li Luo understood immediately. The first condition was that they were afraid Xinghuo Film and Television would try to get something for nothing. They couldn't just leave a film and television base out of thin air without spending a penny, and the local departments would also be at risk.

The second condition is even more obvious.

The 100 million yuan is meant to revitalize the local economy, not for you to squander elsewhere.

The voice fell.

Lin Yue then fell silent.

It's enough to just explain the main support policies clearly; let's put aside the minor details for now. We're just waiting for Li Luo to make a decision, and the conditions are certainly very tempting to her.

However, this 100 million is not something that doesn't need to be repaid. Ultimately, the decision rests with Brother Luo.

"loan!"

Before she had a chance to think it over, she heard a satisfying message on the other end of the phone: "It's set in Tonglu. The company's legal team will fly over to see you tomorrow. And Director Zheng and Professor Liu will probably be going too."

"You take good care of the reception."

"it is good."

Lin Yue nodded slightly.

"Sister Yue."

Li Luo's voice rang out again: "Thank you for your hard work."

"Oh~"

Lin Yue smiled broadly.

After the call ended, Li Luo clenched his fist excitedly, never expecting such good news.

Land price + preliminary preparations + tax reductions and exemptions.

These three measures are unsurprising; local authorities always offer similar conditions when attracting advantageous projects to settle in the area. The only difference lies in how low the land price is and how long the tax exemption period is.

Now, Tonglu is offering land at zero price and has established a comprehensive department to help promote the project.

Their sincerity is truly overflowing.

He then set aside another plot of land to build hotels, apartments, and other similar facilities.

In this respect, the other party is indeed considering the issue entirely from their own perspective.

It's worth noting that even before the film studio is built, as long as this project is finalized and both parties formally sign an agreement, the surrounding land prices will definitely experience a surge, and the more successful the project, the higher the price will rise.

The other party voluntarily ceded its interests.

That's incredibly generous.

Therefore, Li Luo simply accepted the 100 million yuan.

Considering inflation and the soaring prices of various building materials following the arrival of the era of large-scale infrastructure construction, using this money to build hotels and film and television bases now is actually a sure-fire way to make money.

There's no reason to refuse such a benefit.

Film and television bases do need their own supporting hotels. Rather than letting others do this business, it's better to take it over ourselves.

before this.

That was the plan all along.

With low costs, years of tax-free support, and the addition of a film and television city project, what came to Li Luo was not a hotel at all, but a cash cow that was swaying and gleaming with every step!
In addition, there are government subsidies for filming.

With these decisive moves, Tonglu became the inevitable choice.

Film base.

It's officially settled!

Unable to contain his laughter, Li Luo didn't choose to return to the office. Instead, he hurried down the stairs, intending to tell Zheng Xiaolong and Liu Cheng the good news as soon as possible.

According to their usual practice, those two guys should be in the preparation room working on documents.

Turn the corner of the stairs.

His steps suddenly stopped.

The first floor, which should have been quiet, was unusually lively at this time.

Apart from a few colleagues still busy upstairs, colleagues from the film and television production department, artist management department, marketing department, legal department, finance department, and administration department all gathered in the area outside the tea room.

Colorful balloons were hung up, and ribbons fluttered in the breeze from the air conditioner.

The tables were arranged in a staggered manner.

Colleagues excitedly piled all sorts of barbecue, fruit, and snacks on top, and cases of beer and drinks were opened and passed around hand in hand.

The office chairs were arranged in a dense semicircle, all facing the television mounted on the wall.

An advertisement for Mango TV is playing on the screen.

"Here, here."

Just moments ago, Zhao Xuejing was as shy as a quail, but now she stood in the middle of the crowd, beaming with pride, and directed, "Bring over those kidneys, Brother Luo likes them, as well as chicken wings, chives, and oysters."

"I want it spicy, Brother Luo likes spicy food!"

"Ok?"

Finally, someone noticed the tall figure standing on the stairs and immediately shouted excitedly, "Brother Luo!!!"

This sound came out.

Dozens of people below stopped what they were doing.

They all turned to look at the stairs.

No one knows who started it, but a thunderous applause suddenly erupted throughout the entire Red Building. Everyone clapped excitedly, looking at Li Luo as he walked down the stairs with great enthusiasm.

"Brother Luo, happy premiere of your new show!"

"Brother Luo, our Xinghuo Film and Television will definitely be the ratings champion!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Luo!"

Standing before the crowd, Li Luo listened to the inspiring and encouraging words, then chuckled as he looked at the excited faces.

The expressions on the faces of the people before him varied.

I feel proud to be part of Xinghuo Film and Television, and I look forward to the upcoming premiere of our new drama.

Regardless of their expressions.

Everything is positive.

Upward.

We are full of hope for the future!
Such a noisy commotion naturally startled Zheng Xiaolong and Liu Cheng out of the preparation room.

The footsteps upstairs were even more hurried. Liu Jiacheng and the others arrived at the stairwell in astonishment, their eyes wide as they watched Li Luo walk towards the center amidst the cheers and throngs of his employees.

"Tsk!!!"

Zheng Xiaolong crossed his arms and shook his head, saying, "Working on projects with a company like this makes me feel several years younger. How could such an atmosphere not produce a series of good projects?"

"How could we possibly not work hard to make this project a success!"

"Yes."

Liu Cheng also expressed his admiration repeatedly.

Amidst applause and cheers, Li Luo finally stopped, smiling as he spread his hands to the left and right, saying, "Whose mischievous idea was this?"

"Hahaha."

Amidst laughter, everyone turned to look at Zhao Xuejing.

Yes, that's right.

Zhao Xuejing blushed and waved her hands repeatedly, saying apologetically, "Everyone has been quite tired lately, and since our company's new drama is starting to air, I suggested we chip in some money to buy some food."

"Everyone gathered together to watch TV..."

"At this moment, everyone wants to stand with the company and welcome the premiere of our first TV series!"

As Secretary Zhao finished speaking, everyone nodded happily.

This is to demonstrate.

This is indeed what they want to do.

"Luo Ge."

Zhao Xuejing took another deep breath, smiled brightly, and said, "I wish you a happy premiere of your new drama, and I also wish our company's new drama a resounding success!"

"Victory!!!"

The crowd cheered, slapped the table, and yelled.

It was incredibly lively.

"Thank you."

Li Luo laughed heartily, raised his eyebrows, and opened his arms to Zhao Xuejing.

A commotion erupted around them.

Excited cheers and screams filled the air. Inspired by this atmosphere, and seeing Luo Ge's handsome smile, Zhao Xuejing's heart was pounding wildly, and her adrenaline was surging.

Take a deep breath.

Secretary Zhao strode forward.

She wrapped her arms around his strong waist, trembling.

My thin shirt and the T-shirt opposite me couldn't keep out Luo Ge's body temperature and his incredibly strong heartbeat.

Thump, thump.

It made my heart feel like it was going to jump out of my throat.

this time.

Assistant Zhao's head started spinning.

Desperately trying to bolster her courage, Zhao Xuejing stood on tiptoe and swiftly whispered in Li Luo's ear, gritting her teeth, "Brother Luo, actually... I like boys!"

Despite the overwhelming noise around them, the clear voice still managed to reach Li Luo's ears.

His hands loosened.

The bodycon skirt swayed backward repeatedly.

Under Li Luo's astonished gaze, Zhao Xuejing quickly retreated back into the crowd, breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted, and then gently clapped her hands at him.

What just happened.

Although it brought her great excitement and a sense of novelty.

but
Zhao Xuejing, however, did not want it to happen again.

Especially in front of Brother Luo, that feeling of resistance would be even stronger, even though she knew that there was almost no chance that Brother Luo would ever be interested in an ordinary girl like her.

Surrounding Luo Ge were all glamorous celebrities.

She was just an ordinary girl silently following behind, whose mere glimmer of light could be completely overshadowed.

But she didn't want to.

Extremely unwilling to extinguish that kind of...
Noticing Luo Ge's somewhat disheveled expression, Secretary Zhao suppressed his smile and clapped his hands even more enthusiastically.

"Alright, alright."

Li Luo quickly regained his composure and signaled everyone to quiet down. After the noise subsided, he raised his fist high and shouted, "My Sunshine, ratings champion!!!"

"champion!!!"

Dozens of people, led by him, roared in agreement, their arms raised like a forest.

"champion!"

A voice sounded a beat late.

Everyone turned to look, and Zheng Xiaolong, like an old man suddenly feeling young again, raised his arm. However, his movement, which was a beat too late, seemed extremely abrupt, causing him to blush with embarrassment.

"champion!!!"

Another shout rang out.

The commotion came from the company gate. Huang Shengyi and Bian Xiaoxiao appeared in front of everyone carrying large and small bags of late-night snacks, cheering as they ran inside.

The extremely joyful atmosphere made Liu Cheng, Liu Jiacheng, and others join in the laughter.

Dozens of people.

They sat together in front of the television like a family.

They shared all sorts of delicious food and drinks, and watched the commercials playing on the TV with great interest amidst laughter and chatter.

In the dimly lit bedroom, the light emanating from the screen fell on her fair, jade-like thighs.

Xu Qing lazily turned over.

Hugging the plush teddy bear that Li Luo had given her, she looked at the television with great interest.

In the mahjong room.

Amidst a few protests, Nayoung deftly turned on the television, quickly switched to Hunan TV, turned up the volume slightly, tossed the remote to one side, and gave the princess a knowing look.

The latter rolled his eyes, then smiled and focused most of his attention on the screen.

Yunnan Province.

The wind and rain kept crashing.

A gentle and beautiful face was reflected in the glass. Her usually calm and composed face was now furrowed with brows. After looking at the continuous rain outside the window for a while, Yu Feihong sighed and turned away.

She gulped down a large mouthful of beer and quickly went to the single sofa in the corner, where she curled up and sat down.

He blinked and looked at the TV.

I rubbed my aching lower back.

Ouyang Changlin calmly sat down on the sofa in the living room. The television was always showing Hunan TV, and the cup on the table in front of her was always filled with tea.

Only when his wife reached out to help massage his sore muscles did his calm expression soften slightly.

Beijing.

Huang Xiaoming casually sipped his red wine.

Since "The Deer and the Cauldron" was broadcast on various local TV stations, the bad luck caused by the photo incident that prevented the film from being released has finally dissipated, and the high level of attention has finally made him feel proud.

Despite receiving negative reviews.

He said his acting was too greasy and exaggerated.

But he didn't care at all. Whether you praised him or criticized him, as long as he wasn't ignored, he was still interested.

Media commentary.

He didn't really care.

However, during an interview today, I was suddenly made extremely unhappy by a single sentence from a reporter.

cut!
I am the senior student.

When I became famous for playing the role of Emperor Han Wu, that guy's only notable role was Lin Pingzhi. How could he be afraid of this? His aggressive tone was almost laughable.

I don't care about this kind of thing at all!

"Wait a minute."

Noticing the familiar channel logo flashing on the screen, Huang Xiaoming instinctively stopped his friend from changing the channel.

Ok.

Since we happened to run into each other.

It's not a big deal if you just look at it.

"My Sunshine" has officially premiered.

It's not just a few people who are paying attention to this TV series. The entire cast and crew of "Chinese Paladin 3" in Hengdian gathered together again, eagerly awaiting the official broadcast of the series.

The room contained three of the main actors from the show.

How could they not be eager to pay attention?

Not only that.

Even Cai Yinong, the CEO of Sugar Man, brought a late-night snack to join in the fun. She spent three million on this drama and gave two of her most promising artists free of charge to star in it.

Today is the day to verify the results.

The advertising sponsors of the drama "My Sunshine" also need to be inspected.

They not only need to examine the quality of the show, but also check whether the duration of their own advertisements appearing in the show meets the standards stipulated in the contract.

Chongqing TV, Southern TV, Jiangsu TV.

Local television station.

Physical audio-visual copyright holders, etc.

The relevant officials from these units all sat nervously in front of the television, waiting for the drama to officially premiere. Behind any film and television project are not just the interests of a few individuals.

However, the much larger group of people don't care about any interests.

To them.

Just enjoy watching TV.

After more than a week of intensive promotion by Xinghuo Films and Hunan TV, along with the support of stakeholders, the amount of traffic attracted can only be described as terrifying.

Countless viewers had long been curious about this TV series that dared to premiere before the Olympics.

Even before the broadcast began.

Related posts have already appeared in various forums.

The newly established He Yishengxiaomo Tieba forum has seen its popularity skyrocket as Xinghuo Film and Television's public relations department continues to release behind-the-scenes photos, with everyone eagerly anticipating the upcoming premiere of the new drama.

But it was 9:55 p.m.

Posts that were just casual chatter, asking for behind-the-scenes photos, looking for friends, or wishing for good fortune to last a lifetime seemed to have been paused.

The originally extremely noisy posts, forums, and groups.

Like a surging ocean.

A moment of calm.

The dramatic drop in server traffic caused website maintenance staff to scramble to figure out what system malfunction had caused this phenomenon.

"Snapped."

The crisp sound attracted everyone's attention.

"I know what's going on!"

The programmer removed his hand from his forehead and tapped his watch repeatedly in front of everyone: "The TV series 'My Sunshine' will officially premiere in five minutes, so this sudden drop in traffic is normal."

"Are you crazy?"

Another programmer rubbed his shiny bald head and looked at him like he was crazy: "What TV series could cause a sudden drop in viewership of millions? Do you think it's Princess Pearl?"

"No."

The former shook his head decisively and plopped down in a chair: "The ratings miracle of 'Princess Pearl' has its own unique characteristics."

"Even if it were broadcast now, it wouldn't have such terrifying ratings."

"Silent Separation" is just as good.

"As Li Luo's latest work after 'Rage' and 'New Shanghai Bund,' it's not surprising that it has such an influence. At least with his current reputation, almost everyone assumes that this will be a good drama!"

"Li Li Luo?"

Releasing his shiny forehead, another programmer pondered and said, "It's the one who played Zhang Wuji, right? Hey, he really is quite handsome."

"When he came out of the water, tsk tsk tsk."

"Those eight-piece belly."

Noticing that her colleagues were quietly moving their chairs away from her, her excited voice abruptly stopped.

Ten p.m.

The light from the television screen illuminated the eyes of countless people.

As the screen flickered, a pure and innocent face appeared. The woman in the video, wearing a phone with earphones plugged in, turned around and showed her innocent smile to tens of millions of people.

"Golden Eagle Exclusive Theater".

"Sponsored by BBK Music Phone, known for its perfect sound quality!"

"Da la, da la, da la~~~"

Song Hye-kyo appears repeatedly on a moving train and a hot summer beach, accompanied by melodious humming. Her youthful and beautiful figure, flowing dress, and sweet appearance are captivating.

This prompted many people to hum along.

With works like "Autumn in My Heart" and "Full House" coming out one after another, Song Hye-kyo's influence is now extraordinary.

Looking at that face, Li Luo shoveled the grilled kidney off the bamboo skewer into his mouth.

The scene then shifts again.

The main film begins.

Countless people instantly forgot about Song Hye-kyo at the same moment, holding their breath as they watched the opening sequence appear on the television screen.

What appeared before them.

It is a vibrant array of colors, like a traditional Chinese ink painting.

The five large characters "何以笙箫默" (Silent Separation) appeared on the screen seemingly slowly yet quickly, with two light, colorful butterflies fluttering past above them. To the accompaniment of a clear piano melody, the butterflies continued to flutter forward.

Li Luo, dressed in a suit and tie, gazed ahead with a gentle smile.

in his body.

It felt as if I could feel the warmth of the sun.

With just one appearance, she instantly captivated countless people.
