After being forced to travel through time by accident, I became famous in the entertainment industry

Sometimes, a broker with foresight and intelligence is still very important for the future.

It is never too late to mend.

Instead of remaining silent, it is better to take action now.

Tang Qianshuo didn't care whether he would be scolded by netizens for speaking after the fact. He immediately edited the text and posted a clarification on Weibo.

After sending it, he looked at his agent with a serious expression.

Many artists in the company use the same agent. After all, human energy is limited. With so many people under his control, there will always be things that are overlooked.

What's more, if they had a capable agent, they wouldn't have become a small and obscure group now.

After the contract ends, it’s time to consider changing an agency.

But if he wants to change to a good company, he must demonstrate his value so that he can successfully sign with another company.

So he must perform well in the variety show "New History" which is currently being filmed.

The program includes both variety show content and filming parts, which allows him to show his value.

Tang Qianshuo immediately had an idea and turned his attention away from his agent.

Now we don’t know what kind of games will be in the subsequent variety show part. Everything is unknown. Moreover, the variety show route is not a long-term solution. He still has to focus his future plans on his acting career.

He ignored his agent and stood up and left the room.

The company would prepare a lounge for artists with greater status or higher incomes, but unfortunately Tang Qianshuo did not belong to either of these two categories. There was no lounge, so he had to quickly find a dressing room.

After confirming that there was no one in the locker room, he locked the door and took out his cell phone to send a message to Xu Zhao.

At the end of the last episode, Brother Qiao put him in the same group for filming. On the surface, Brother Qiao was the one in charge, but Xu Zhao, who wrote the script, was the one who really held the power.

Only she can decide who will play what role, so finding her is the best choice.

There was a sofa in the locker room, but Tang Qianshuo did not sit on it. Instead, he sat in the angle between the sofa and the wall, holding his cell phone tightly in his hand.

He looked at the message he had sent, wondering if his words were appropriate.

Xu Zhao learned about the Weibo post from City A Museum from Wu Yici.

She was originally working when a call from Wu Yici interrupted her thoughts.

No one comes to visit unless there is something important. This is the subtle way of getting along between her and her friends. Wu Yici's call surprised Xu Zhao a little. It was not until she heard about the things on the Internet from Wu Yici that she remembered such a thing.

Even the fact that the country had captured the criminal gang was something Wu Yici told Xu Zhao about. If the country had not been worried about retaliation from those who had escaped the net, it would have directly tagged Xu Zhao to thank her for her help in this matter.

Even though Xu Zhao thought he didn't do anything.

After Xu Zhao hung up the phone, she went online to check what happened online while she was working.

She knew about the variety show that was broadcast today. The disadvantage of filming a variety show with a group of big names is that there are many people watching and they are picky, so small things can easily be magnified.

As expected, there was heated discussion online about her not bringing Jin Suiran and Tang Qianshuo to the genuine product stall, with many people scolding her.

It is indeed as Wu Yici said. The A City Museum issued a clarification on Weibo. The country also came out to clarify. This is the government expressing its position, and it will not tolerate these keyboard warriors online saying whatever they want. So the public opinion online changed instantly.

After flipping through it twice, Xu Zhao felt bored. She was strong inside, and even if the country did not intervene, these were just trivial matters to her.

I turned off my phone and was about to put it down when it vibrated twice.

Did someone send her a message?

It couldn't be about work so late, so after hesitating for a long time, she chose to look at her phone.

She opened it again and the WeChat account showed it was Tang Qianshuo.

This was the first time he contacted her privately, and Xu Zhao thought he must have something important to tell her.

After taking a look at what was on the computer screen, she realized that she had always been a person who enjoyed life in the moment. Now that her thoughts were interrupted, she might as well give herself a break.

Xu Zhao clicked on Tang Qianshuo's message and saw the message he sent.

Tang Qianshuo: Sister Zhaozhao, has our group's script been written? I have a request. Can you give me a significant role? [Please] [Please]!

A significant role?

Xu Zhao didn't beat around the bush with Tang Qianshuo and asked directly.

Xu Zhao: Why do you suddenly have this request?

In her eyes, Tang Qianshuo is an artist who is willing to work hard. They have no conflict of interest. If there is a need, she is naturally willing to help.

But if she wants to help, she has to know the reason. There are many unpredictable people in the entertainment industry, so it would be better for her to ask clearly.

Tang Qianshuo didn't expect Xu Zhao to reply so quickly. After seeing the question sent by Xu Zhao, he hesitated for a moment, and thought that since he needed help from others, it would be better to be honest, so he sent his thoughts.

Only then did Xu Zhao realize that there was such a little episode in tonight's incident, and that Tang Qianshuo was thinking of changing his agency.

When she thought that Tang Qianshuo's agent actually wanted to step on her, she couldn't blame her for helping Tang Qianshuo behind the scenes.

I agreed to this immediately.

The script for their group was "The Decisive Battle of Mobei Kingdom", which featured Shen Yu. At that time, Shen Yu was already in his thirties, and Xu Zhao thought of letting Brother Qiao play the role.

Brother Qiao has maintained his skin well over the years, which makes him just the right person for this role.

If the role was changed to Tang Qianshuo, a pretty boy's face flashed through Xu Zhao's mind, and he couldn't help shaking his head, thinking it was not suitable.

She couldn't ruin her script just to fulfill her child's dream.

If it was the young Shen Yu, Xu Zhao would have let him play the role, but the role of the thirty-year-old Shen Yu had to be given to Brother Qiao.

Xu Zhao sent the script he wrote to Tang Qianshuo and also sent him a message.

Xu Zhao: There is a deputy general named Lana in the Mobei Kingdom. He plays a very important role in the story. You can read the script first to get a feel for it.

Xu Zhao later heard from Shen Yu about this deputy general. After Chatur was killed, Lana became the backbone of the Mobei army. He led the remaining people of Mobei to defend the border town and wait for reinforcements.

After two days without any reinforcements, he opened the city gates and begged the Kingdom of Yue to spare the people in the city behind him.

Although he doesn't have many scenes, the character is rich in personality and emotionally entangled. If he performs well, it will naturally be very outstanding.

This role was originally to be given to someone found by the program team. Tang Qianshuo's original role was the military advisor of the Yue Kingdom. This character did not exist in history. Xu Zhao added him specially to make the story reasonable. Now that the role has been changed, Xu Zhao needs to change the script.

Xu Zhao first told Zheng Wen about this, then immediately reduced the size of the page on the screen and found the script he had written at the beginning. The role of the military advisor did not have much content, so it was quick to revise it. In less than half an hour, Xu Zhao had finished revising the script he had written and sent it to Zheng Wen.

Zheng Wen saw that the changes had become even more outrageous. He touched his hair, which was not very thick to begin with, and repeatedly asked Xu Zhao whether he was sure to use this version of the script.

In response to him, Xu Cha gave a very affirmative answer.

Since she had made up her mind, Zheng Wen did not interfere. He sent the script written by Xu Zhao to a professional and asked him to write a new script before tomorrow morning.

Tomorrow, Friday, he needs to send the script to the guests to ensure that they can shoot smoothly on Sunday.

……

The Saturday morning sun broke through the clouds and shone on the earth. The six resident guests were taken to an ancient town by a minibus prepared by the program crew.

According to legend, this ancient town was once part of the imperial city of Yue Kingdom. Even though so much time has passed, it still retains some of the appearance of the imperial city.

In order to ensure smooth filming, the ancient town began to prepare three days ago and rejected all tourists who came here to play.

Six guests stood at the entrance of the ancient town, waiting for the director to introduce new guests.

Qiao Zhijing and others had actually met the two new guests last night. They all stayed in the same hotel, so it was hard not to run into each other.

Now I just have to pretend to be ignorant and say hello after the director finishes his introduction.

"Let's welcome Su Pianpian!"

Su Pianpian walked out from the side, first greeted the camera, and then greeted the guests one by one.

"Next, welcome, Wu Shuai!"

Wu Shuai also greeted the audience in front of the camera.

Because he was not very famous, the guests in front of him were basically seniors, and he bowed and greeted them one by one.

[It’s good to be on a new variety show. I even got to invite my old goddess Su Pianpian! ]

[Pian Pian hasn't acted in a long time. Is she going to make a comeback? ]

Who's this guy coming up behind me? He's so polite, he even bows when greeting me!

[The guy upstairs is Tangtang's teammate Wu Shuai. They debuted as a group abroad. This is basic etiquette.]

[The show has been injected with new blood, and I don’t know if it will be better! ]

Zheng Wen didn't give everyone time to exchange greetings. He held up the loudspeaker and announced the tasks for today's program.

"Since ancient times, agriculture has been emphasized over commerce. However, in the early days of the Yu Dynasty, the founding emperor, Shen Lingge, issued an edict that treated all four classes of officials equally: scholars, farmers, merchants, and artisans. This edict encouraged those with business acumen to engage in commerce and those with manual dexterity to engage in various crafts. Unfortunately, the idea of ​​emphasizing agriculture over commerce persisted, and his edict did little to change the prevailing thinking."

"Today we are going to experience the merchant culture of the Yu Dynasty." After explaining the historical background, Zheng Wen went straight to the point.

Zheng Wen: "We will give the eight guests 500 coins in a moment. They can buy five types of items in the ancient town. Each item has a different price, and you can choose what to buy and how much to buy. At the end of the show, merchants will come to buy goods from you. Your task is to successfully sell the items you bought. The one with the highest profit wins."

"Of course, to avoid vicious competition, the selling price cannot be lower than your cost price, nor can it be higher than 20% of your cost price."

As a newcomer, Wu Shuai was on this variety show for the first time. He didn't quite understand the rules, but he knew to ask some questions, "Director, will everything we buy be sold in the end?"

Zheng Wen: "That's not necessarily true. We have arranged five merchants, and each of them must buy something from you. As for how much to buy and the price, it's up to you to decide."

There are five merchants and eight guests. If there is no fighting, five guests will have their goods sold, and the remaining three guests will get nothing.

This is still the case when there is no fighting. If a guest has duplicate items, naturally the one with the lowest price will be able to sell it, and then the number of people who cannot sell their items will likely increase.

"Director, what are the five categories of things we need to buy?" Qiao Zhijing asked directly.

Zheng Wen: "There is a mission point in the ancient town. You will find it when you go in."

Perhaps the guests who have understood the rules are already eager to try their luck, having never imagined they could actually experience a business battle on the show! Even if the rules are confusing, just play first and you might figure it out.

Zheng Wen noticed everyone's eager expressions and blew the whistle hanging around his neck. "Okay, the game begins!"

After hearing the whistle, everyone turned around and ran into the ancient town.

Xu Zhao slowed down her pace after running into the ancient town. Winning or losing was not important. She cared more about the fun of the competition.

Walking slowly, I can think about how to play today's game.

Five items are sold to five merchants, and the quantity of these goods is unknown. These must be found out clearly.

And as the director just said, the price cannot be lower than the cost price. In other words, if you sell all the items worth 500 wen, and your competitors try to undercut each other on price, you may not make any profit or only a little profit.

The second half of this sentence states that the price cannot be higher than 20% of the cost price. Since they are trying to undercut each other on price, how can the price be higher than 20% of the cost price?

The only possibility Xu Zhao could think of was that since merchants had to buy things, and the things came from guests, the price and quantity had to be decided by the guests. The only possibility for raising the price was that the things were only in the hands of one guest, so naturally, everything would be decided by this guest.

monopoly?

I rely on!

What a vicious business war!

Since the director said this, there must be such a possibility.

If the price is different, then the quantity must be different.

Everyone's costs are the same. As long as she monopolizes one of them and directly raises the price to 20% of the cost, her chances of winning will be very high. Even if she meets someone who also has the idea of ​​monopoly, the most she will get is a draw, and she will not lose badly.

No, no.

Xu Zhao had just finished thinking about it when he thought about it again. He felt that something was not right. Not every one of these five things could be monopolized, otherwise some guests would not be able to buy anything. There must be something with a low cost price but a very large quantity, so much that several guests could spend all their money to buy it.

In this case, it's a matter of luck.

But the most important thing now is to find the mission point first. She can look at whichever one she finds first. It would be best if she comes across a mission point where there are no other guests.

In this way, her probability of successfully monopolizing the market will be higher.
