The Private Diary of a Movie Queen
Chapter 62
Shen Yu sat at the desk, staring at the computer screen, with a rare ugly expression on his face.
During the time of a cup of tea, the assistant came in and out two or three times, every time he put down a document, Shen Yu's face became even more ugly.
The time of winter seems to pass quickly, and the time is approaching December, which will soon be the time when the movie "Never" will be released.
However, there was a problem with the announcement of the movie.
If a movie does not have a good publicity release, the publicity effect achieved by just relying on the promotion of one or two famous actors and actresses is far inferior to that of a movie with strong publicity.Announcement affects not only topics, public opinion, and news on the Internet, but more importantly, it is also linked to attendance and theater advertisements.
Shen Yu has contacted many companies in the past few days. At first, when the other party heard that it was Shen Yu, they were eager to sign the contract quickly. Then, when they heard about the subject matter of the movie and the subject of the same sex, they all became hesitant, and started Tai Chi with Shen Yu. It's just that he doesn't want to take this hot potato and get himself into trouble.
And those who are willing to take over are basically newly established studios. Although they have the momentum of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, their publicity and distribution foundation is too weak to play a big role at all.
In addition, "Never" has not been favored by major film and television companies, which means that its film scheduling rate... is also worrying.
All this gave Shen Yu a headache.
Although she has a high status in the director circle, the entertainment circle is like a deep water. To ensure the success of a movie, every link is essential.
Shen Yu frowned, thought for a while, and finally made a decision.
She seldom depends on others, and rarely asks for help.
Shen Yu called Ning Hanyu.
"Hey, Miss Shen, what's the matter?"
For Shen Yu, Ning Hanyu still valued it very much, and she quickly picked it up.
"I will meet someone with me tomorrow, do you think you are free?"
Ning Hanyu is well versed in the ways of the industry. Knowing that the release of the movie has become a problem, Shen Yu will inevitably go out to do public relations. Bringing her along can also let people know that the movie has him joining, so that the other party will have more trust in the movie.
"No problem." Ning Han replied.
After hanging up Ning Hanyu's phone, Shen Yu called her cousin Bai Mo.
"Hello? Sister, what's the matter?"
Bai Mo respects Shen Yu very much and always calls her sister.
"...Do you know Shen Yang?"
Bai Mo was taken aback.
Shen Yang, almost a legend in the industry, took over the largest media company in the industry at a young age, and has been in power since then, and it has been nearly 20 years now.
And what she is more talked about is the story with her homosexual, the superstar Xu Faliang.
Although Bai Mo is a fashion editor-in-chief who is in the limelight in modern times, compared with Shen Yang who was born in fashion, he is simply the younger brother.
He had met Shen Yang a few times, and he also had someone's contact information, but...he also realized that he and Shen Yang were not in the same circle at all, so he never contacted her without winking.
"Sister, I have her contact information, but..."
"Don't explain anymore, just say hi to me and say that Ning Hanyu and I want to visit her tomorrow afternoon to see if she has time."
Bai Mo hesitated on the other end of the phone for nearly a minute: "Okay, sister, but I'm not sure."
Shen Yu hummed and hung up the phone.
She watched the fragmented news for half an hour distractedly, when the phone rang, Shen Yu took a look, found that it was Bai Mo, and immediately answered the phone.
"Hey, sister, good news!" Bai Mo's voice was loud.
"Chairman Shen has returned to me! She said that she can talk to you at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon, but she has something important to do. I hope you can keep it as brief as possible and talk to her directly about the key points."
Shen Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
At five o'clock the next day, she and Ning Hanyu appeared under the headquarters building of Island Line Media on time.
The secretary knew Ning Hanyu, and after hearing their introduction, he took them into Shen Yang's office on the first floor.
The secretary knocked on the door respectfully, but there was no response from inside, so the secretary didn't dare to open the door rashly. Their chairman was afraid of noise, so the office was also in the most remote place on the first floor.
The secretary knocked on the door again, and a cold and polite voice came from inside: please come in.
Shen Yu and Ning Hanyu followed the secretary into this office.
The room is not big, with glass bottle screens and flowers and plants as partitions, simply dividing the office into two. The chairman of Island Line Media, Shen Yang, is getting up from the office desk, taking off the light gray clothes on his body. Blankets, spread out the formal coat and go to the sofa.
Ning Hanyu's heart was shaken.
She did not expect that the nearly forty-year-old chairman had such a good figure and appearance.
In the past few years of Ning Hanyu's debut, following Xu Faliang's retirement, Shen Yang rarely appeared in public again, and the annual Grace Charity Night also had a different host.
She had never seen Shen Yang so closely and seriously.
Shen Yang walked over to them while dressing, and smiled gently: "I'm sorry, I didn't have time to change, please sit down."
Ning Hanyu and Shen Yu sat on the sofa, and the secretary withdrew and closed the door.
Shen Yu obviously didn't expect that the chairman of Shimaden had no airs at all.
This kind of innate thing is not pretended, Shen Yu firmly believes that even if the person sitting across from the bottom of the society is sitting here, as long as they are the guests that Shen Yang recognizes, they will not be slighted.
It's just that many people, due to their status and status, can't get in touch with Shen Yang at all.
Shen Yang made tea for them, poured out the tea from the pot, and served it to Ning Hanyu and Shen Yu.
"Director Shen, Queen Ning, the two of you are looking for me because of the movie?"
Shen Yu was a little surprised, she didn't ask Bai Mo to tell Shen Yang why she came on the phone yesterday.
I didn't expect this woman to be so transparent.
"Yes, Miss Shen, we hope your company can help us."
Ning Hanyu no longer played tricks, and simply cut to the chase, expressing her feelings directly, and subconsciously told her that playing tricks in front of Shen Yang was not a wise choice.
"Well," Shen Yang hummed lightly, nodded, and the smile on his face remained unchanged: "What do you two want? If it's easy, you don't have to find me."
Shen Yu nodded: "Because of my personal reasons... I hope that the content of the script will not be deleted, the theme will not be changed, and the announcement will not be concealed."
As a director, she knew that her request was actually a little too much.
Unexpectedly, the face of the chairman of Shimaden didn't change. He just thought for a while and said, "Can I have a look at your script?"
Shen Yu took out the folder from his bag and handed it to Shen Yang.
Shen Yang lowered his head and began to read the script.
Ning Hanyu looked at Shen Yang who was wearing silver-rimmed glasses and lowered his head, he really didn't understand how such a dazzling and eye-catching woman would retreat behind the scenes.
With her skin alone, she may be able to bring a lot of benefits and solve many problems easily.
The room fell silent for a while, the master didn't speak, she and Shen Yu simply sat there, waiting for Shen Yang to finish the script.
Only the sound of paper being turned.
"Shen Yang?"
The door was suddenly opened from the outside, Shen Yang looked up, quickly put down the script, and went to the door to pick up the person himself.
Shen Yu and Ning Hanyu also hurriedly stood up.
Ordinary people called Shen Yang are Shen Dong, and those who are closer are called Shen Jie, who dares to call her by her first name?
After seeing the person coming, both of them were not surprised.
Xu Faliang, people in the circle knew her experience well.
As a native-born actress, Xu Faliang has many titles of "Chinese No. One...too many to count.
In the more than ten years since her debut, she has been almost invincible in the domestic entertainment industry. At that time, no one had the status to stand shoulder to shoulder with her.
Four or five years ago, the development of this movie queen in the country slowed down, which gave Ning Hanyu this generation of newcomers time to make their debut.
People in the circle were no strangers to Xu Faliang's face, so, suddenly facing Xu Faliang, both Shen Yu and Ning Hanyu forgot to speak for a while.
Until Xu Faliang greeted Ning Hanyu: "Xiao Ning?"
Only then did Ning Hanyu reply: "Sister Xu, it's me."
Shen Yang was a little puzzled: "You know each other?"
Ning Hanyu explained: "Sister Xu was kind to me once."
Back then, Ning Hanyu’s popular drama was the Republic of China drama "When Will I See You Again" by the gold medal TV drama director Cai Lun. When director Cai was choosing candidates, he hesitated between Ning Hanyu and another popular female star. , and asked his friend Xu Faliang who was sitting on the sidelines.
At that time, Xu Faliang had been popular for ten years, and he would never take on such a TV drama heroine.
Xu Faliang looked at Ning Hanyu and asked her to act out that scene again.
Just after the performance, Xu Faliang nodded.
Director Cai decided to use the unpopular Ning Hanyu as the female lead.
This is the so-called "tip of grace".
In the past few years when Ning Hanyu became popular, some people compared her with Xu Faliang, but in Ning Hanyu's heart, Xu Faliang has always been her most respected senior.
"You're welcome, sit down and talk."
The four sat down again, Xu Faliang glanced at Shen Yang with a smile: "What are you looking at?"
Shen Yang immediately took the script over, Xu Faliang took it over, glanced at it and said, "It's never been."
Ning Hanyu's eyes lit up. If Xu Faliang liked it, the matter would be easy to handle.
They all remember that the last time a same-sex theme was released in China was the movie "Fen Ye" more than ten years ago.This work contracted by Island Line Media made Xu Faliang an instant hit and started a legendary life of cheating.
"I've read it before, and it's very well written. I've also read other works by the author, and I even followed your "White Elephant Effect"."
Hearing Xu Faliang say this, even Ning Hanyu felt a little embarrassed.
After a while, it was six o'clock.
Shen Yu was very measured, got up and took Ning Hanyu away: "Then we won't bother you. If Chairman Shen is interested, you can call me back."
"Ok."
Xu Faliang and Shen Yang got up and sent them out.
After leaving the headquarters of Island Line Media, Shen Yu sat in the car, feeling a little uneasy.
Ning Hanyu's phone vibrated, and at first glance, it turned out to be a text message sent to her by Xu Faliang.
[By the way, Xiao Ning, do you know the author of "Never", I really want to get to know her, is it convenient for you? 】
Ning Hanyu replied: [Well, to tell you the truth, she is my girlfriend, and she is relatively free recently. If you have time, I can take her out. She also happens to be your fan. 】
Xu Faliang: [That's really great, I'm also in China tomorrow, you can come to my house and talk about movies.This is my home address: xxxxxx]
Ning Hanyu was taken aback, it turned out that they were in the same community.
If Xu Faliang didn't mean it sincerely, he usually wouldn't send out an invitation. Thinking of this, Ning Han agreed.
Looking up, Shen Yu looked worried.
"Director Shen, don't be sullen. If Sister Xu likes it, it's probably safe."
Shen Yu sighed: "It's not that easy."
They are not related to Shen Yang, and Island Line Media doesn't care about the petty profits of the movie box office, it is normal to refuse.
However, Ning Hanyu has a very high status in the entertainment circle, so he can hear some rumors that others can't hear.
For example, Chairman Shen dotes on Xu Yinghou very much.
During the time of a cup of tea, the assistant came in and out two or three times, every time he put down a document, Shen Yu's face became even more ugly.
The time of winter seems to pass quickly, and the time is approaching December, which will soon be the time when the movie "Never" will be released.

Then, when they heard about the subject matter of the movie and the subject of the same sex, they all became hesitant, and started Tai Chi with Shen Yu. It's just that he doesn't want to take this hot potato and get himself into trouble.
And those who are willing to take over are basically newly established studios. Although they have the momentum of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, their publicity and distribution foundation is too weak to play a big role at all.

She seldom depends on others, and rarely asks for help.
