From collapsed house idol to entertainment superstar

"Here you come? How do you feel?"

When Liu Zhiyan walked into an office, there was a middle-aged man sitting behind the desk, sorting documents with his head down. When he noticed Liu Zhiyan walking in, the middle-aged man raised his head and looked at him with a smile on his face.

"Not bad." Liu Zhiyan replied in a nonchalant manner and sat down opposite the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's name is Zhao Jinghua. He is one of the two deputy directors of the artist management department. In terms of seniority, he is more senior than Liang Qiong, who only joined Huansong after its formation. He is one of the team members of Yang Fu Studio.

.

After establishing Huansong Media, the position of director of the artist management department was taken by Liang Qiong who came from the air.

If you want to say that Zhao Jinghua has no other intentions, that's impossible.

And the real leaders of the company like Yang Fu are also happy to see the limited competition.

Taizu also said that there is no party outside the party, there are imperial ideas, there are no factions within the party, and there are all kinds of strange things.

This point of view also applies to a company.

This does not mean that there must be an atmosphere of intrigue, but that a healthy and prosperous company must have internal competitiveness. No matter which department it is, it cannot become someone's talking point.

After all, even Yang Fu, who is apparently at the helm, actually does not have absolute veto power in terms of shareholding ratio or even at the shareholders' meeting.

Huansong is backed by Goose Factory and has connections with Beijing circles that Yang Fu has been running for many years. It is very strong in terms of production and channels.

In other words, it is actually a new product made in this aspect by the gradually declining Beijing circle and the emerging capital, with Yang Fu as the link.

Therefore, even if Huansong Media really develops, it will not be Yang Fu’s Huansong Media alone. It is not now and will not be in the future.

And Liu Zhiyan was recruited by Zhao Jinghua with all his efforts, and the purpose was very obvious. He just wanted to achieve results and compete with Liang Qiong for the right to speak in the agency department.

"Would you like tea or coffee?"

Zhao Jinghua stood up and asked casually.

"I'm not busy, let's chat first."

Liu Zhiyan crossed his legs, reached out and tapped on the table.

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Let's talk about Ding Zhi. Didn't you say that he is my biggest competitor in the company?"

When Zhao Jinghua heard this, he straightened his body and asked in turn.

"You also saw him today, how do you feel?"

Liu Zhiyan thought for a moment and said, "He is very handsome and has a unique temperament."

Hey! Don't think wrongly, Liu Zhiyan doesn't mean to be arrogant here.

But in most people's minds, appearance still plays a large role when evaluating an artist.

Because Liu Zhiyan knows very well that as a young artist, he has a superior appearance and a high degree of recognition. In fact, it is often the best card.

No matter whether this card is played to the audience openly or to the financial backers secretly.

"Besides, it collides with me."

This is the core contradiction. Once artists collide, they will often compete to the death for good opportunities and scarce resources.

If it were still the same company, it would definitely be a winner-take-all scenario. The loser would only get the leftovers from the winner, and the loser would get nothing at all.

"In addition, during meetings, most of the time it seems that they are careless. This is the company's specific plan for the first half of this year."

"In other words, it is the company's review of the second half of last year, and it is also the time to divide the cake again."

Zhao Jinghua continued.

"And Ding Zhi seems to be unconcerned, right?"

"Yes, that's what it means!"

Liu Zhiyan nodded heavily, "I don't care because I am the absolute leading actor in the company's "Feng Hua" in the second half of the year, and why does he have such confidence?"

The reason why Zhao Jinghua was able to sign Liu Zhiyan, who has been vaguely able to push into the second tier in the past two years, is not only because the resources of Huan Song are indeed attractive, but also because Zhao Jinghua spent a lot of money and promised Liu Zhiyan on behalf of the company to make Huan Song a major film in the second half of the year.

He was successfully signed as the leading actor in the production.

This Republic of China drama called "Feng Hua" is not like Ding Zhi's "Peeping", which was an unexpected product that was promoted by Peach TV due to some combination of circumstances. Instead, it was originally praised in the "One Year Plan"

The key projects in the series are dramas that are bound to become stars.

The most important thing is that Liu Zhiyan's "connection" is actually a big shot in the fashion industry, and the so-called resources in the Hong Kong industry that are envied by others, but he knows his own business, actually give him more scraps.

It has never been squeezed into the core.

Huansong was able to provide him with the most scarce film and television resources, so he hit it off with Zhao Jinghua.

He had only joined Huanzhi a few years ago, and at that time Ding Zhi went to Hong Kong Island for filming, so his knowledge of Ding Zhi was limited to the rumors circulating within the company.

So much so that he didn't think there was anything great about the other party. No matter the number of works or traffic, they couldn't compare with him.

"Because he really doesn't have to care about these. Did you know that he participated in four film and television works last year?"

"Is it weird? He was praising me. You also said that as long as I come in, he will be the only one in the company who can compete with me."

Liu Zhiyan said somewhat nonchalantly.

In his view, with the company's strong support, he can only appear in four film and television dramas, which is nothing.

"Actually, among the four works he starred in, only one online drama called "Peeping" is our company's resource, and in this drama, he is also the screenwriter."

Liu Zhiyan frowned in confusion.

"Actually, I have always wondered about this. Does the company think it has too much money? Even if it is a web drama, it can't be so messy, right?"

Zhao Jinghua shook his head and told a not-so-secret piece of information, "This drama has already reached A+ level in Peach TV's internal evaluation. It cannot go further because the lineup does not have the capacity to carry the traffic."

"And the quality of his film resources is also very good. You should be aware of this."

And Liu Zhiyan also has connections with the Hong Kong circle. Even before he rushed to the company this morning, he woke up from the hotel bed of a female newcomer who was highly praised by Bernard Media.

Bernard Media is one of the top players in Hong Kong.

So he was able to find out everything about where Ding Zhi was from, which team he had just finished filming, who the director was, and who the screenwriter was.

Therefore, the deeper the understanding, the greater the pressure on Liu Zhiyan.

Huansong has a strong team, and it was established not long ago. As for the female stars, no one can compete with Yang Fu, the top star. As for the male artists, there seems to be no niche. He originally thought that he would come here, to put it mildly, to join in a strong way.

To put it bluntly, isn’t that just crushing!

Who knew there was such a threatening person hidden inside.

Zhao Jinghua observed Liu Zhiyan's frown and couldn't help but feel relieved.

"But he also has a fatal weakness."

"What?"

"First of all, he only signed a film and television contract with the company. In this regard, he can't compare to you."

Liu Zhiyan and Huansong signed a full management contract.

After all, Huansong is not a charity. As soon as you come, you will be the leading actor in one of the annual dramas promoted by the company. If you want to only sign a film and television contract, that is a dream.

Ding Zhi's situation is rare. Who knew that a person who was initially regarded as a recruit to discover Liang Qiong would burst out with such terrifying potential in less than a year?

Huansong suffered a loss once, how could it happen again.

"Secondly, your current exposure is far better than that of Ding Zhi. He currently has no significant exposure except for the slight popularity of "Eight Hundred"."

"So you will be the male artist promoted by the company, and the company's film and television resources, fashion resources, and even business resources will be biased towards you!"

Of course, Zhao Jinghua still hid half of the sentence and did not say it out loud.

That is, if Liu Zhiyan's performance exceeds that of Ding Zhi, or is on par with him, or even slightly inferior, Huansong will give him a greater resource tilt than Ding Zhi.

After all, no company will have trouble with money. This is an unspoken rule that even Liang Qiong, as the head of the brokerage department, cannot violate.

Except for one thing, that is, Ding Zhi suddenly exploded.

Is it possible that Ding Zhi will explode?

Zhao Jinghua shook his head.

At least in the short term, he couldn't see the possibility.

Although the web drama "Peeping" has good internal ratings and may even become a hit on a small scale, the probability of an actor becoming a hit with a TV series without any marketing is very small, and this In this section, Dangai dramas account for almost nine-tenths.

As for suspense dramas that can attract actors, no matter how good their reputation is, none of them has been able to do this so far.

Yes, he has also participated in many high-quality movies and TV series, but it is often difficult for movies to increase traffic.

Liang Qiong always seems to be doing inappropriate things.

But the Liu Zhiyan in front of him was different. He was a cash cow who took into account both traffic and market scarcity!
