Chapter 409: Run, Brother
Jiang Heng came out of the bathroom and saw Huang Xiaoming standing at the door. He was not surprised.
At this moment, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures are the first in China in terms of scale, revenue and influence.
Every decision he makes will change the fate of many people, so it is normal to be "surrounded".
Just like Han Dong and Yan Chen, who have just become popular, they are all popular first-line stars.
With some resources and a stable status, it is not too easy to get a net worth of hundreds of millions.
What changed their star destiny was that they were chosen by Jiang Heng to star in a special effects blockbuster.
Of course, Huang Xiaoming is already a first-line star, and he obviously didn't come here for himself.
Glancing at Yang Tianbao who was chatting with Yang Mi not far away, he said to Huang Xiaoming: "Heroes are hard to resist beautiful women!"
Huang Xiaoming's face was a little hot when he heard this, "She is a good girl, and she also admires Director Jiang and wants to join iQiyi, Youku and Tencent...!"
There were many people at the celebration party, and a group of people would come at any time. As for normal times, Jiang Heng is so busy that he may not be able to make an appointment.
Speaking on the phone, it feels not formal enough.
Huang Xiaoming, who is worried about gains and losses, finally decides to get straight to the point and make a long story short. He just finishes his request.
Jiang Heng glanced at Yang Tianbao who was not far away. As expected, the latter looked over. Seeing Jiang Heng looking at her, she smiled sweetly and looked flattering.
Jiang Heng smiled at her, which was considered a greeting.
Then he said to Huang Xiaoming: "Signing someone into the company is not a big deal. However, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent have their own rules and regulations, which is to ensure the welfare of the signed artists, give them the best resources and planning, and try to make every artist of iQiyi, Youku and Tencent become a star.
The kind of thing that signs people to the company and does not provide anything, or even hides them, iQiyi, Youku and Tencent can't do it!"
Huang Xiaoming looked embarrassed and smiled bitterly: "I know that Director Jiang is kind-hearted and no one can match him!"
To be honest, there is some controversy in the industry about Jiang Heng's approach. He is too good to the artists, which makes many colleagues uncomfortable.
Because some companies' approach is to sign a bunch of artist trainees, and if one of them becomes popular, they will make money, and the rest are cannon fodder. If they want to terminate the contract, they have to pay a high penalty for breach of contract, and they make a lot of money.
The number of signed artists of iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Film is not large, but the quality is very high. It can be said that each of them is doing well, which makes all the colleagues envious and think that Jiang Heng's vision is ridiculously good.
Huang Xiaoming originally thought Jiang Heng was kind, but now he felt a little unsure.
He had already told Yang Tianbao that he would help her sign with iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video. If this didn't work out, wouldn't it be a big shame?
"Director Jiang, Baby is a very good girl and won't waste the company's resources. Just...!"
Jiang Heng raised his hand and said with a smile: "Let's put it this way. The company is about to introduce a Korean variety show. There is a lack of female guests. We originally planned to use people from the company. For your sake, let her go. You go back and contact Vice President Li Xiaoping to discuss the details with her!"
After that, he patted Huang Xiaoming on the shoulder and walked away.
Huang Xiaoming was stunned for a few seconds, and hurried forward to express his gratitude.
Although the goal of getting Yang Tianbao to sign with iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video was not achieved, it was not a complete loss.
As for the so-called variety show guests, although they are a little lower in status, it is better than nothing.
Besides, the variety shows made by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Video should be different!
If it was Director Jiang's idea, maybe it would have made money.
When Huang Xiaoming thought of this, he felt a flash of inspiration in his brain.
Just as he was about to think about it, Yang Tianbao came over and said nervously: "What did Director Jiang say?"
"Director Jiang said that they are going to launch a variety show and let you be a guest!"
"Really, that's great!"
Yang Tianbao was overjoyed and couldn't help but kiss Huang Xiaoming on the face, and said in a sweet voice: "Husband, you, you are so great!"
Huang Xiaoming looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say more.
And there were many people in the circle at the moment, so it was not easy to explain in detail.
"Director Jiang said to find Vice President Li Xiaoping for specific matters. I'll ask her a few questions first!"
Yang Tianbao said yes obediently, and began to wonder what film and television resources she could get. The start of a variety show is still a little low!
As the vice president of iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures, Li Xiaoping is also the object of many people's pursuit. Huang Xiaoming surrounded her and had a chance to talk for a long time.
He invited her to a secluded corner and said, "Mr. Li, Director Jiang said he wants to introduce a variety show from South Korea, and Baby can be the female guest!"
Li Xiaoping hadn't heard Jiang Heng say this yet, but she thought Huang Xiaoming wouldn't lie, so she glanced at Yang Tianbao and said with a smile, "What a beautiful and lucky girl!"
Huang Xiaoming's mind moved, and he said excitedly, "Did Director Jiang come up with this idea?"
Li Xiaoping's eyes lit up, and he looked at Huang Xiaoming in surprise, and said with a smile, "You're quite smart!"
Huang Xiaoming was very happy, and he said, "It's not that I'm smart, but I have confidence in Director Jiang. The show he likes must be right!"
Yang Tianbao next to him was confused, and felt that the two were playing a guessing game.
After leaving, he asked, "You just asked Mr. Li that...!"
Huang Xiaoming said, "Director Jiang usually only shoots special effects blockbusters and doesn't care much about big-budget TV series. Now he is optimistic about a Korean variety show and actively proposes to introduce it. Do you think it's good enough?"
After hearing this, Yang Tianbao's eyes gradually brightened, and his face was full of surprise, as if he was about to scream in the next second.
Huang Xiaoming hurriedly stopped him and said, "Don't reveal it yet, so as not to cause trouble. Wait until the contract is signed!"
"Oh!" Yang Tianbao thought it was an agency contract, and sat down happily with Huang Xiaoming to eat and drink.
After the celebration banquet, Jiang Heng found Li Xiaoping and asked her how the introduction of the "Running Man" program was going.
Li Xiaoping said that the discussion was almost done. The first season of the program was jointly produced by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures and South Korea's SBS, and the subsequent seasons were produced by iQiyi, Youku and Tencent Pictures themselves.
The only disagreement at present is the price. South Korea's SBS is too strict about the price, and it is difficult to come down.
Jiang Heng lay in the boss chair and laughed: "These guys, knowing that iQiyi, Youku and Tencent have money, want to take a bite!"
Li Xiaoping said: "At present, it is indeed the case!"
"Okay, agree to it, so that they won't make any more trouble. Record earlier and make money earlier!"
"Running Man" was first broadcast on SBS TV in South Korea on July 11, 2010. It has only been a little over a year, and its influence is not as great as it was later.
Therefore, the price offered by SBS TV is lower than that in the previous life, and it is even more unknown how popular it will be in China after being renamed "Running Man".
As for the guests of the show, Jiang Heng naturally prefers the "original team".
That's why he asked Yang Tianbao to join after Huang Xiaoming made a request.
After all, although Yang Tianbao's acting skills are a bit poor, his performance in "Running Man" is still very good.
