In the beginning, I just wanted to make money

"In Hong Kong, female celebrities are in a miserable situation. They either keep filming or marry into wealthy families. But how can a wealthy family be so easy to marry into?"

"…No chance of falling in love?"

"No... Actually, there is no use in falling in love..."

"Useless?"

"It's better to marry well than to talk well!"

Zhong Liti spoke very slowly, Shen Xudong could probably understand a little bit...

Anyway, the two of them can barely communicate in English + Cantonese + Mandarin.

Shen Xudong was eye-opening...

It's not an eye-opener, but my "Screening Room" has another piece of evidence: in the 1980s and 1990s, it was standard for female stars to find rich men, even if one was as beautiful as a flower and the other was old and ugly.

Especially in Hong Kong and Taiwan, no matter how big a celebrity or excellent actress she is, she is committed to marrying into a wealthy family...

why?

On the one hand, the income of female stars is limited, and their pay is several times lower than that of male stars. Only Brigitte Lin and Michelle Yeoh are better performers, and their pay is as high as one million...

Including Maggie Cheung, the salary for a film is only about 700,000 to 800,000. After winning three actresses, her status began to soar, and the salary increased to 1.5 million.

Filming is a hard-earned job and the money is not much. Rich people are not just rich people. Entering a rich family is a rise in class, which means that one person can live on 2 million a month.

If you have the opportunity to join a wealthy family, your life will change against the wind, and your next generation will all have better development...

In addition, Hong Kong's entertainment underworld was rampant at that time. Many artists were forced to film, beaten, scolded, shot, and photographed in pornographic photos. Their lives were threatened. Even if they couldn't marry into a wealthy family, they could find a protective shield by being a mistress. …

It’s also for life safety reasons!

"Although it looks very glamorous on the surface, the actual income is not high, and you have to work hard to film. Of course, you have to marry into a rich family to be able to live it up once and for all. Also, you can't offend people in the entertainment industry. If you say the wrong thing, you may have no scenes to film. There’s money to be made…”

The two of them were talking about their fans while chatting...

Chung Liti looks so elegant when she eats, she even makes no sound when she says something!

Shen Xudong couldn't stand it any longer and told her: "Eating fans is also called Sui Fen. The word Sui Fen means 'Xili Suo'." You didn't make a sound. It's not polite. It's disrespectful to the master! "

"real?"

"Of course, if you look at the people around you, who is not talking non-stop?"

Zhong Liti raised her head carefully, and sure enough, everyone around her was chattering...

Smiling, under Shen Xudong's guidance, he also began to make sounds.

After the meal, Shen Xudong walked with her for a while...

…

If she is new to the world, take her to see all the prosperity of the world; if her mind has changed, take her to ride the merry-go-round...

Learn two truths about picking up girls!

Of course, Shen Xudong doesn't need to learn this. He doesn't understand what it means to chase girls...

It’s all the other party’s initiative…

Including this time, Shen Xudong planned to send her back to his room, but Zhong Liti insisted on going to his room to take a look...

Then I didn’t come out all night…

The three of them set out at noon the next day.

Shen Xudong originally thought that the assistant would say something, such as asking about staying out all night and sending clothes...

I thought too much and the assistant said nothing...

Not even the look in his eyes changed!

No, just a little more admiration...

Maybe it's because I saw Liti Chung's fatigue...

…

Two weeks passed quickly, and at the end of March, a group of people returned to the set...

Ignoring Liu Wei's inquiring eyes, Shen Xudong went to get a haircut first.

He was used to short hair and couldn't stand it if it was slightly longer.

Also, he never goes to that kind of splendid barber shop. This director, that deputy manager, get a haircut and ride on the horse to rank?

Short shape, with the sides and back area shortened, cool, comfortable and clean...

It took twenty minutes to get it done and after paying the bill, Shen Xudong took out his cell phone and called back the missed call. It was Gao Fenfen.

"Hey... you want to buy a BJ station too? Can you sell it?"

"...I don't know if it's a private broadcast...please ask..."

"Just give me whatever you want for the price..."

"Then just talk...Thank you, sister..."

It is said that BJ station also took a fancy to "Phoenix Screening Room" and thought about buying it and broadcasting it. After asking about it, I found out that it was produced by a company called Tianmei Studio...

In fact, generally speaking, since the copyright is sold to a TV station, the TV station has the right to control it.

It is unlikely that they will allow the producers to sell the show to other TV stations...

Isn't this Phoenix TV special? It is an overseas TV station and can be watched in three-star or above foreign-related hotels in mainland China. Home users can watch Phoenix TV through the licensed overseas channel module in the digital TV set-top box. It is broadcast throughout Guangdong. Adjacent to the Guangdong area, you can see some…

Gao Fenfen suggested ‘putting out a similar program…’

After hanging up the phone and thinking for a while, Shen Xudong called Zhao Linhai again. He wanted to ask about Gao Fenfen's treatment at the newspaper...

After helping so much, you have to give me some reward, right?

Zhao Linhai was obviously not interested in this topic. He was more concerned about whether Shen Xudong had anything to do with Zhong Liti.

It was impossible for Shen Xudong to tell the truth: "What can happen? I am a poor student, and she is a big star!"

Zhao Linhai didn't believe a word he said: "You are very charming..."

"Brother, I can't speak Cantonese... I don't have any place to show off my charm!"

"…Too."

Then Zhao Linhai talked about Gao Fenfen's treatment, which was a bit beyond Shen Xudong's expectations...

The salary is a bit too low, the monthly salary is only over 4,000...

Before he had time to think about it, Zhao Linhai asked, ‘Why did you suddenly think of asking this? ’

"...My cousin called me just now..."

Shen Xudong talked about BJ Station wanting to buy "Screening Room": "She helped so much, I was thinking about giving her some compensation..."

"BJ Channel wants to buy "Screening Room"? Do we have the right to sell it?"

"No..." Shen Xudong continued: "According to my cousin, the best way to deal with it is to make a similar program... Do you have any ideas?"

"I don't have any ideas...how about you?"

"I...have no ideas for the moment..."

Shen Xudong scratched his head and was about to say something when suddenly an idea flashed: "Boss, what do you think we do a single-chip analysis?"

"Single-chip analysis? What do you mean?"

"It's just a video explanation...for example, "Fist of Heroes", a kung fu movie textbook, we can explain three fighting scenes in detail..."

"Pull the tab...will anyone watch it?"

"Don't talk about unfamiliar movies, try to choose relatively well-known ones... I have an idea. Let's find the movie channel ratings list and look at the top three movies in the ratings. We will do these three in the first three issues!"

"But you want to be a screening room..."

Shen Xudong immediately said: "I didn't say I would do it, you do it... bring the second brother and the third brother together..."

"Ah? If we do it, what about "Screening Room"?"

"...can we recruit more people..."

Zhao Linhai had a different opinion: "I think we should discuss it with my cousin first. What if the TV station just said it casually?"

"I don't care if it's casual, let's do ours, and if they don't want it, we'll find a way to sell it to other TV stations... Also, I'm very familiar with Enlight Media... If you really can't sell it, it can be used as a training exercise!"
