Chapter 1104. So Direct? (Twenty Four)

Shen Xudong has no idea about the new generation...

There are no particularly good-looking new-generation actresses in his memory. He only remembers the four popular girls...

Big mouth, donkey face, flat chest, ordinary appearance but insisting on playing the role of "peerless beauty"!

But she is very popular...

There are also four female stars who have no works in the entertainment industry: Gu Li Nazha, Dilraba Dilraba, Yang Chaoyue, and Yang Ying.

You see, they are all beauties.

╰(*︶`*)╯

Some people! God has given you a beauty cheat, but if you don't live up to your expectations, what can you do?

Also, in today's entertainment industry, if you want to enter, there is a way...

You can get hired if you are a little prettier than the average person. The market is expanding, the number of artists is large, and there are many good and bad looks. Girls who are particularly beautiful will not necessarily go to the entertainment industry. Nowadays, there are very few full-time talent scouts like in the past. A beautiful woman who can be seen in the crowd at a glance!

Even in schools, it is unlikely that there will be such beautiful women who outshine other beauties.

Gentle and sweet little girls are also very marketable.

Yes, aesthetic diversity and aesthetic inclusiveness, but if you are filming an idol drama, appearance is still a rigid indicator, alas!

Another point is that now the second generation of celebrities and the second generation of rich people have collectively entered the industry and directly taken away the jobs of handsome men and beautiful women...

Even the jobs of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists are gone!

For example, a Taiwanese star came to the Mainland as a temporary substitute to do a variety show. Due to the extremely unprofessional nature of the program crew, the star died suddenly during the show.

The program team and the affiliated TV station were criticized verbally and written, and were strongly condemned.

Let’s not talk about these.

Surprisingly, the price for this star to participate in the show is 150,000!

That’s right, 150,000!

Variety shows have various price limits, but popular stars charge about 1 million per episode.

Popular celebrities will receive other compensation.

Just like this, you may not be able to invite people.

In fact, the price is not right.

The sponsors made various demands, but the mainland celebrities who were competing for endorsements just refused to cooperate, so the brands had no choice but to swallow their anger.

150,000 is just a simple labor fee. Sponsors will not ask you to broadcast a line...

Back to the topic, Shen Xudong was quite surprised after listening to the variety show "First Grade": "There is another new variety show? PPTV is so popular now, how many variety shows have they produced?"

"At least 12 variety shows a year!"

Chen Xi smiled and said: "...I heard that there is a lot of internal fighting, with various planning proposals from the variety show department and the film and television department..."

"Is there any corruption?"

"...Yes, but the regulatory authorities are quite strict...and you don't believe in the so-called traffic...it has eliminated a lot of this kind of corruption..."

"We still need to reflect on ourselves...I heard that corruption is very serious in Youku, but this cannot be the case with PPTV!"

"Um…"

…

PPTV gives you money, but does not interfere with your creation, and it also comes with a punishment mechanism. I will not interfere with your creation, but if your work does not receive a good response and is rejected by the public, then sorry, I will blacklist you. , don’t think about investing in me again in the future.

In addition, the series production adopts the chief screenwriter responsibility system: read the script first, if the script is not good, directly pass it, and only if the script is good, the project will be started.

Moreover, when filming, priority is given to hiring unknown actors. If you want to hire big-name artists, you need to apply specially and have extra budget.

This will ensure that the series won't be too bad...

Using traffic, the data may look better, but the contribution is not much, and it is too expensive!

Let’s do the math, let’s forget it…

Shen Xudong really feels that there is something wrong with the thinking of the three major platforms: they don't respect the screenwriters, they don't respect the production staff, they just want traffic!

If this group of traffic does not provide special services to you executives, it means that they are your parents in previous lives, so you use your membership money to honor them like your grandchildren!

A bad movie like "Ace Force" was purchased by iQiyi for 300 million yuan.

Reports say that iQiyi, Youku, and Tencent Video have burned through more than 100 billion in ten years, and still have no profit expectations...

Of course, capitalists are not good people. They definitely want to cut leeks. The problem is that they are superstitious about their business models, data analysis, and focus groups.

The fan volume ignores the internal corruption and the "partners" who deceive the superiors and hide the evil intentions.

The money was just taken away by the more cunning capitalists and their brokers - the capitalists lost money, and the ones who got fat were the concubines and relatives of various capitalists!

Well, it’s not the capitalists who are losing money, they are all listed companies. After all, whose money is losing?

By the way, a reminder; those who advocate the so-called "sinking market" all day long are generally corrupt, especially in the entertainment field.

What they call seizing the "sinking market" is actually to use their own useless team with no talent to squeeze resources.

Please!

Even if you look down on the audience, don't insult the audience's intelligence like this, okay?

Those who advocate that idiotic variety shows can attract "sinking audiences" more than "Breaking Bad" are all incompetent and corrupt elements.

…

Ahem, Shen Xudong finally met what Chen Xi called a new generation of good quality...

Two girls, one named Meng Ziyi and the other named Zhou Ye...

It's really good-looking, a beautiful lady with well-knitted legs!

After a brief greeting, Shen Xudong was about to ask some questions when Zhou Ye spoke first: "Dr. Shen, I am your fan... I have typed a few books, can you sign them?"

"Yo? What book?"

Shen Xudong is quite happy, after all, he is a young flower born in 1995...

It feels great when a young girl looks at you with adoring eyes. No matter what your disease is, your hormones are guaranteed to be boiling and your lifespan will be extended by two years.

""Zhu Xian"?"

Seeing the book Zhou Ye took out, Shen Xudong was surprised: "Do you like this one?"

Zhou Ye: "...Well, I really liked watching "Zhu Xian" when I was in junior high school..."

"...Oh, do you like Lu Xueqi or Baguio?"

“I am a Baguio Party member!”

"...Haha..." Shen Xudong smiled, did not answer, and signed his name seriously...

"Shen Dada, do you like Baguio or Lu Xueqi?"

"...Why is there no Tian Linger?"

Zhou Ye was surprised: "Tian Linger?"

Shen Xudong waved his hand: "Of course it's Lu Xueqi! I didn't expect that a supporting role (Baguio) would be liked by so many people..."

Meng Ziyi, who was drinking tea at the side, said: "I like Lu Xueqi too!"

"Lu Xueqi is the heroine..." Shen Xudong nodded and was about to give a long speech. Zhou Ye glanced at Meng Ziyi: "Did Sister Meng bring a book?"

"No...aren't we here to be unspoken?"

Hearing this, Shen Xudong's face turned red...

Zhou Ye also looked ugly...

Yes, I introduced you here to get to know each other, but in fact, I was just infiltrated...

But you can’t say it so directly!

The art of communication, Shen Xudong, as a senior in the entertainment industry, will lead you two to rush together...

What unspoken rules?

It's such an ugly thing to say!

Meng Ziyi seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly explained: "It's just a scandal..."

"Stirring up the scandal? Did Chen Xi tell you?"
