Chapter 161 "Longing for Pastoral Life"
Cheng Huanhuan looked at the photo carefully and asked.
"Siqing, what was used to take this photo? It's so clear. Is it a SLR?"
Deng Siqing said, "No, it's the camera I installed before."
Cheng Huanhuan rolled her eyes angrily, "Then if you didn't tell me earlier, you would have made me worried!"
Deng Siqing smiled and said, "Aren't I teasing you?"
Looking at the angle of this photo, Deng Siqing fell into deep thought.
Did Da Fei really peek at her? Or is there another secret?
…
Mao Feifei was first scolded by Jiang Lei on the phone, and then scolded again by Qiu Chengdong, who informed him that he had been banned and would no longer be on the show.
Mao Feifei felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his face was ashen.
His father-in-law called and scolded him again, and he was completely panicked.
"It's over, Da Fei won't really sue me, will he?"
Chen Yadao, "Please consult a lawyer quickly!"
Mao Feifei quickly made several phone calls to inquire about the lawyer, but got the same result.
If Da Fei sues him, he might really go to jail.
Generally, there will be no criminal liability for plagiarism, but Mao Feifei's plagiarism of the other party's work has already caused a very serious impact. Even if he is not jailed for three years, he will still be subject to criminal punishment.
From now on he will have a criminal record.
Mao Feifei quickly took out his cell phone and called Da Fei, but unfortunately the other party didn't answer his call at all.
Mao Feifei panicked, "Please ask our dad to help find out where Da Fei's crew is. I'll go and apologize quickly!"
…
This incident brought a lot of heat to Da Fei.
Da Fei said to let the bullets fly for a while. Liang Yin didn't understand it at the time, but now he understands that it was to make the heat even higher.
Anyway, he has evidence and is not afraid of anything.
"Da Fei, where did you get this photo?"
"Sister Deng gave it to me."
"oh."
Liang Yin and the others didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, it would be best if the matter was resolved.
"Da Fei, I checked the progress. We should be able to finish filming in another seven or eight days."
The filming of "Bright Sword" went very smoothly. The college students are now becoming more and more skilled, and the veteran actors are also willing to endure hardships. They often take a break until very late in the night.
Wang Zhi and the others are becoming more and more familiar with this set of procedures of the crew, and the speed is much faster than expected.
Of course, more money was spent.
It is estimated that the entire filming of this drama will cost around 30 million.
Lin Chudong was quite satisfied with the cost. Their crew had good conditions in all aspects, including props, makeup, explosions, and everything they could use, including the actors' food, clothing, housing, and transportation, as well as the high standards of water. It was expected that they spent too much money.
Lin Chudong said, "Well, I just finished filming the finals of "Crossover Singer", and the director said the finals will be broadcast live."
Liang Yin said, "It's live broadcast again. Do you sing?"
Lin Chudong shook his head, "I won't sing anymore. I talked with the director and asked Yang Han to be a guest in the final. Yang Han sings a song and the notification fee is one million."
Liang Yin's face was filled with excitement, "Really? That's good. Yang Han can also make money. Our company's income is increasing."
Lin Chudong smiled, looking at Liang Yin's happy look, he is a money fan!
…
Praise Entertainment and Yang Han's personal accounts posted on Weibo at the same time, announcing that Yang Han had terminated the contract, so that they could get together and part ways, and wish each other the best.
And Liangyin Media announced that Yang Han has officially joined.
This news shocked netizens.
"Yang Han is so popular that he would join Liangyin Media. Has Dafei's company grown to this scale?"
"I'm also a little surprised. Dafei is indeed popular, but I feel that their company is all supported by Dafei himself. If Yang Han goes away, will it be able to develop?"
"Yang Han, think twice! Just because Da Fei is popular doesn't mean you can be popular too. The old club still has more resources!"
"I feel like Yang Han made the wrong move. He finally became famous. If he really goes to Da Fei's company, he might be in trouble again."
"What's the size of Dafei Company? Can it accommodate Yang Han? It's too big an appetite."
"..."
Both Yang Han's fans and passers-by on the Internet did not agree with her decision.
Although many people on the Internet jokingly call him Flying Girl, he did make Cheng Huanhuan famous, but Cheng Huanhuan did not leave her job to go to Dafei Company.
It's just cooperation. Yang Han can also cooperate. It would be too risky to go all-in and go to Da Fei's company.
Generally, contracts are signed for one year. Once the development is not good in this year, the previous enthusiasm will be in vain.
Yang Han ignored these voices on the Internet. She had already expected that joining Da Fei's band would definitely receive some criticism.
But it doesn't matter, she believes that Da Fei will not let her down.
…
Tian Yingxiong: Yang Han really went to your place. You didn’t fool me this time.
Lin Chudong: Why am I fooling you? You will come or not. If you come now, I will give you a high salary. You will not have such a good opportunity in the future.
Tian Yingxiong: I can't go. The company has agreed to your in-depth cooperation agreement. Write a song for me quickly.
Lin Chudong: Well, okay, I’ll give it to you in a while.
Tian Yingxiong: Stop pretending. You must have written it a long time ago. Send it quickly!
Lin Chudong: Cao...how did you know?
Of course, Lin Chudong couldn't sing to Tian Yingxiong right away. The crew hadn't finished yet, and the accompaniment hadn't been recorded yet.
The previous "The Most Stunning Ethnic Style" made their combination popular, and Legend of Birds is now quite popular.
When Lin Chudong played "Free Flying" to him again, he would definitely kneel down and call him foster father.
In the afternoon, Sun Xuan came to visit the class.
Lin Chudong was a little surprised and wanted to put down what he was doing and entertain Sun Xuan.
Sun Xuan quickly stopped him, "You take pictures of yours, and I'll watch and talk to you at the same time."
Sun Xuan sat in front of the monitor and watched for a while, full of expectations for the show.
"This drama will definitely be a hit. Where are you planning to cast it?"
"I have already contacted CCTV 8."
Sun Xuan was stunned, "Okay, you are really blossoming in CCTV now."
Lin Chudong said, "Brother Sun, do you have something to do with me?"
It's impossible to fly all the way from Shanghai just to hang out on the set.
Sun Xuan lit a cigarette and said with a sad look on his face.
"Your planning office didn't approve it before. The production cost of the program you mentioned was a bit high. The office spent a lot of money on "Crossover Singer", and now they don't have the money to create a program for me."
Lin Chudong frowned, this excuse was too lame.
Which TV station's variety show doesn't seek sponsorship first and then develop the program?
Still not optimistic about this plan, nor Sun Xuan.
Sun Xuan originally came out of Modu TV, joined CCTV, and participated in the directing of the Spring Festival Gala.
Now that he has been transferred to the Beijing Channel, everyone knows that this is temporary, so he doesn't want to use too many of the station's resources for him.
After all, Sun Xuan will return to CCTV in the future and train him. Isn't that also making a wedding dress for CCTV?
But Sun Xuan still needs performance now, otherwise he would have no excuse to return to CCTV, which would be very embarrassing.
After Lin Chudong heard Sun Xuan explain the situation, he thought about it and said.
"Brother Sun, do you think this will work?"
"Our company is the exclusive sponsor, and I will arrange the artists for the first few episodes. However, the sponsorship fee must be reduced accordingly, and the program broadcast period must be better."
Sun Xuan was stunned, "Are you an exclusive sponsor?"
"Well, Audition, I just want to advertise."
Sun Xuan frowned. Lin Chudong's game was actually quite popular and he should have made a lot of money. It would make sense to sponsor a variety show.
"But as an artist, can you handle it?"
In addition to the variety show setting, the most important thing for this kind of program is that it must be interesting and good-looking.
The guests you invite must be interesting or have traffic, otherwise it will be difficult to create an effect.
Da Fei will definitely go there.
In these recent variety shows, as long as Da Fei appears on the stage, the program effects are very good. Da Fei has too many talents, there is no doubt about it.
But it is not realistic for one person to support a variety show. The funnyness of cross talk still needs praise.
Lin Chudong said, "You can rest assured that people from our own company can come out, me, Yang Han, and Li Maimai."
"Tian Yingxiong can also join. He is now half of our company."
"Deng Siqing, Lin Qiqi, Cheng Huanhuan, all of them can be admitted, but they are enough to cope with the first few issues, right?"
Sun Xuan thought for a while, "This lineup is definitely enough. In terms of sponsorship fees, what is your bottom line?"
Lin Chudong said, "I won't beat around the bush with you. We will be the exclusive sponsor. We can get up to 10 million."
"Including our artists, at least the program team has been saved tens of millions. This condition should be enough."
Lin Chudong provided 10 million, which basically covered all the production funds.
Not considering the cost of hiring artists, this money is enough for a big production. Even if the station leader is cautious, there is no reason to refuse, right?
Sun Xuan nodded, "Then I owe you a favor."
Lin Chudong said, "Don't be polite to me, but you will be the producer of this show and I will be the director."
Sun Xuan laughed dumbly, "You kid, are you trying to steal my job?"
Lin Chudong smiled bitterly, "How dare I? It's just to produce the variety show effect I want. You can rest assured and be my leader."
Lin Chudong had no problem contributing to Sun Xuan in vain, so he simply advertised for "Audition" as if he was promoting himself.
Sun Xuan nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with the Taiwan leader. If it's agreed, you can help me get it done when you're done here."
Lin Chudong nodded, "No problem."
After seeing Sun Xuan off, Liang Yin asked, "Da Fei, ten million is a lot less, we still have money."
After filming "Bright Sword", they should still have more than 30 million, and there will be subsequent accounts, so more sponsorships will be no problem.
Lin Chudong said, "Ten million is enough. As long as Brother Sun delegates power to me, I will definitely give him a hit show."
Liang Yin nodded. Since Da Fei said so, it must be fine.
"What's the name of the new show?"
""Longing for Pastoral Life""
…
In the evening, just as he was about to call it a day, Wang Zhi suddenly walked in and said.
"Brother Fei, Mao Feifei is here."
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and they all stopped what they were doing, ready to watch the excitement.
Lin Chudong said, "Then let him come in."
Liang Yin crossed his arms and stood beside Lin Chudong, like a royal bodyguard.
I guess Mao Feifei won't come here to cause trouble. There are many people in their crew.
Mao Feifei and Chen Ya walked in, both of them looking unhappy.
Seeing Lin Chudong, he quickly put on a smile.
"Da Fei, I'm sorry to disturb your filming."
Lin Chudong said, "It doesn't matter. I'm done. What can I do?"
Lin Chudong spoke without any emotion, just like discussing business with someone he didn't know well.
Just watching these two people chatting, it's hard to imagine that they were just arguing online.
Lin Chudong destroyed him overnight, but Mao Feifei really didn't dare to do anything now, because if Dafei really sued him, he would really be unable to bear the consequences and walk away.
Mao Feifei looked a little confused when she saw so many people watching.
"Why don't we all disperse? We have something to talk about alone."
Lin Chudong nodded, "Let's call it a day."
Many actors and staff wanted to watch the excitement, but Lin Chudong spoke and they could no longer watch.
After everyone left, Mao Feifei took out a bank card and placed it on Lin Chudong's table.
"This is my fault. I apologize to you. I have been banned from Weibo and cannot apologize publicly."
"There are three million in this card. Consider it the compensation I will give you. If you are so generous, please let me go."
Liang Yin was a little surprised. He didn't expect Mao Feifei to come all the way to apologize, and also offered three million as compensation.
This is quite sincere.
Lin Chudong smiled, "Where are you going next?"
Mao Feifei said, "I can't do comedy now. I quit. I won't be in this industry anymore."
Lin Chudong nodded, "Okay, that's it for now. Let's sign an agreement on the compensation."
Three million is not a small sum, and cannot be given casually, otherwise Mao Feifei will turn around and sue Lin Chudong for blackmail, and the matter will never end again.
After signing the settlement agreement, Mao Feifei and Chen Ya left the crew.
Liang Yin said, "Da Fei, is there no fraud here?"
Lin Chudong said, "No, the settlement agreement has been signed. It's okay. He is just really scared."
"If there is a lawsuit, the court may not award so much compensation."
After the fight with Mao Feifei, he still made a fortune.
Liang Yin gave all three million to Lin Chudong. This was personal compensation, not the company's.
Lin Chudong's monthly salary was several hundred thousand. With these three million, he already had several million in hand.
Later, when the company has more funds, he will withdraw some money and open a wave of treasure chests.
Now it is more cost-effective to open ten treasure chests once for ten million.
According to previous calculations, if we open it four more times, we should be able to reach one hundred.
I don’t know what powerful props there will be in the hundred treasure chests.
I hope the acting category will be available soon.
…
"The production of "Bright Sword" has been completed. Thank you to all the staff for their hard work. Let's treat everyone to a seafood buffet tonight!"
"Bright Sword" was finished and everyone cheered.
The busy work is finally over.
Liang Yin arranged a seafood buffet worth RMB 300 per person in the evening. Every staff member and actor brought one, but of course, he did not bring those college student extras.
At this closing banquet, everyone had a hearty meal, and many people drank. The staff took turns to pay tribute to the director, and Da Fei also welcomed all comers. Amidst the laughter and laughter, the drama ended perfectly.
Lin Chudong held the wine glass and said.
"Honey boss, don't you want a drink? You don't have to drive today."
Liang Yin thought for a while, "Then you have to help me back if I drink too much."
"Okay."
Liang Yin smiled, poured a glass of red wine, and had a drink with Lin Chudong.
"cheers."
Everyone is looking forward to the release of "Bright Sword" with a sense of joy and anticipation.
They have all witnessed the birth of this drama, which will definitely sweep the entire film and television drama industry.
Da Fei is such a talented director!
It hasn't been aired yet, or even seen the finished film, but everyone is full of confidence in this drama.
Everyone exchanged glasses and drank until late at night.
Liang Yin's face was red from drinking, and the proprietress's ability to drink was okay, but she couldn't handle the crowd.
This group of leading actors, seeing that the director was not easy to mess with, immediately set their sights on Mr. Liang.
After taking turns to salute for several rounds, Liang Yin was finally defeated.
Everyone walked to the hotel one after another.
Wang Zhidao, "Brother Fei, is the boss lady okay?"
"It's okay, you go, I'll take her back."
"good."
Lin Chudong put Liang Yin's arm on his shoulders, hugged her waist and walked back.
Under the streetlight, the shadows of the two people were lengthened.
The landlady's figure is too prominent, so hugging her like this will inevitably lead to physical contact.
Lin Chudong was not drunk. This was done as if he was taking advantage of the landlady.
Liang Yin was slightly taller than Sister Deng, so it was a bit difficult to hug her like this.
After checking the distance, he saw that it was not far away, so he directly carried her on his back.
Of course, it's not to take advantage or anything, absolutely not, it's just to save effort and convenience.
After entering the elevator, Lin Chudong put her down.
Liang Yin opened his eyes and his cheeks were rosy.
When they got upstairs, the elevator door opened. Lin Chudong squatted down and was about to lift her up.
Suddenly Liang Yin took his hand back and hit him with a small pink fist.
"Okay, that's almost it."
After saying that, Liang Yin walked out of the elevator with a blushing face, swiped the room card and entered the room.
Lin Chudong touched his nose awkwardly, what do you mean it's almost done?
…
Back in the Magic City, everyone can finally relax.
Lin Chudong asked Yao Qiang about the situation. Currently, the number of users of "Audition" is still rising, but because there are not many ads, the number of users is growing slowly.
But fortunately, the operating cost of this game is not high, but the recharge rate is very high. The monthly profit is rising rapidly now. If a wave of strong advertising is launched, it is estimated that the monthly net profit should not be a problem.
Lin Chudong and Yao Qiang talked about the exclusive title plan and asked him to prepare. In case this thing is successful, some corresponding activities should be made in the game.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Yang Han reported to the company.
Although this matter has been decided a long time ago, they have been in the crew all the time. Today is Yang Han's first day of reporting in the company.
Bang!
Liang Yin specially decorated the office, got two small salutes, and held a welcome ceremony for Yang Han.
Lin Chudong shook Yang Han's hand and said.
"Welcome to Liangyin Media."
"My honor."
Yang Han said while sitting in Lin Chudong's office.
"Time flies so fast. I remember you were still in that music store before. It seems like it was yesterday."
Lin Chudong smiled, "Yes, the music store is still there. It's now an employee dormitory. I live there. Why did you terminate the contract in advance?"
Yang Han said, "The company is going to change the benefits. They saw that I was determined to leave, so they terminated my contract in advance. The new benefits don't need me."
Lin Chudong nodded, "That's perfect. "Crossover Singer" arranged for you to be a guest. I have already contacted them. I wrote a new song for you. It's just right for you to sing in the finals. Try to make a splash again."
Yang Han smiled, "Thank you, boss."
...
Yang Han took Wang Zhi and others to the recording studio to record songs, Liang Yin said.
"I can't imagine that we have become Yang Han's boss."
"Not only Yang Han, Tian Yingxiong is also half of our employees. If he dares to yell at you again in the future, just deduct his money."
Liang Yin said, "He shouldn't dare."
He has seen the fierceness of the boss's wife.
"How long will it take to edit and review "Bright Sword"?"
"At least 20 days, don't worry, the review of anti-Japanese war dramas is very troublesome. After all, it is broadcast on CCTV, which is relatively slow."
"Well, we can only wait."
In the afternoon, Yang Han and his friends came back from recording songs, and Lin Chudong held a general meeting again.
He talked about the company's recent work situation.
"The filming of "Bright Sword" went very smoothly, which is inseparable from your efforts. This month, everyone will get the salary that belongs to your part-time position."
"Audition has begun to get on track, and there will be activities every month. The company's other activities and game departments do not need to participate for the time being."
"The next work focus will be Yang Han and my commercial performances. Yang Han usually sings solo, so the musicians don't have to run with her, but when recording is needed, you still have to cooperate."
"I may start recording a reality show in a few days. Wang Zhi, come with me and be my assistant. The others will listen to the boss's instructions."
"Okay, that's it."
After the short meeting, everyone was full of energy again.
Especially Wang Zhi and his friends, they seemed to have a feeling of entering the management of a large company.
Although Fei Ge did not mention recruiting new musicians.
If the company recruits artists later, this set of musicians will definitely not be enough, and maybe they will recruit more at that time.
If they recruit new people, they will become veterans, and when there are more people, they will naturally become management.
This time in the crew, everyone has become a small leader, and their abilities are rapidly improving. It is just around the corner to become entertainment bosses in the future!
…
The next day, Lin Chudong, Yang Han and Wang Zhi came to Beijing.
Tomorrow, the final of "Crossover Singer" will be broadcast live, and then Sun Xuan will be contacted to prepare for "Longing for Pastoral Life".
Sun Xuan also gave the news that the conditions proposed by Da Fei are beneficial to the TV station, and there is no reason to refuse. Now we just have to wait for the approval of the leaders.
After settling the two in the hotel, Lin Chudong changed her clothes and prepared to go to Deng Siqing.
The songs for the finals have been sent to her in advance, but I haven't seen how she sings yet.
Although Deng Siqing is very talented in singing, she sometimes doesn't understand the techniques and needs some guidance.
Besides...
Every time I come to Beijing, I stay there.
Wang Zhi said, "Brother Fei, go wherever you want. This is a standard room. If the lady boss asks me, I know what to say."
After saying that, Wang Zhi raised his eyebrows at him, as if he understood me.
Lin Chudong pointed at him, "You are a real talent. It would be unreasonable not to promote you."
