This star doesn’t work overtime

Chapter 327 325. The huge impact of the video online! The live show begins!

Buzz buzz...

Zhang Heping's cell phone suddenly rang. He apologized to the program crew, picked up the phone and went out to answer the call.

The caller was none other than Qin Yuhai!

With Zhang Heping's status and qualifications in the Chinese entertainment industry, Shen Shenghui is not qualified to talk to him about this. Only a boss like Qin Yuhai can talk to him about important things!

Things related to Wang Cheng are of course the most important thing.

Therefore, Qin Yuhai personally called Zhang Heping.

Zhang Heping answered the phone and joked: "Mr. Qin is here to inquire about news again?"

Qin Yuhai didn't care about Zhang Heping's teasing tone. He knew that Zhang Heping was a bit gossipy in private. He was from Beijing and liked to tease people. He smiled and said, "What's wrong with asking? I just want to know about our company's artists." How is your performance on Director Zhang’s show? Isn’t that too much?”

Zhang Heping stretched his head and looked at Wang Cheng who was not far away. Seeing that Wang Cheng was still sitting there and watching with his mobile phone, he smiled and said: "It's nothing. I arrived at the show on time at nine o'clock today. It was just like the legend, with a big air. No. We all arrived after eight o'clock. After arriving, he didn't do anything. He didn't review the script with us or review the lines with his co-stars. He just sat there and looked at his mobile phone."

"This is different from the legend. Legend has it that he is very dedicated. But when he came to our place, he just played with his mobile phone. The director was so scared that he just went to prepare three teleprompters."

Qin Yuhai over there relaxed slightly after hearing this: "Lao Zhang, I owe you a favor this time. During the live broadcast in the afternoon, you and Lao Guan should stop falling out. If it is done, I will invest in you next time. One billion!”

A trace of expectation flashed in Zhang Heping's eyes. Although he has the best commercial performance among the older generation of directors, the largest investment he has ever made in a film is about 300 to 400 million. He has never made a film with an investment of more than 500 million. A billion-level film has never been made. Investment has never even occurred to me.

Because most of the films he shoots are comedies, and such films do not require large investments at all.

Once he wanted to invest heavily in transformation, the investors backed off because the investment was too much. The starting investment was more than 500 million. Once it failed, the losses would be huge.

Zhang Heping has always wanted to invest in a war film with a large investment, and the investment is expected to be more than 500 million.

If he can get Qin Yuhai's investment of one billion, then he will have a lot of room for maneuver. Not only can he make this movie, but he can also get a lot of benefits from it, plus the movie share after the movie is released. He may be able to earn half of his lifetime income from this movie.

However, he knew that once Qin Yuhai and Wang Cheng renewed their contract, Qin Yuhai would gain even more. A billion investment was really nothing to Qin Yuhai.

He made a rough calculation and found that Wang Cheng had helped Qin Yuhai earn 20 to 30 billion in the past month alone.

This speed of making money is unmatched by anyone in the industry. If possible, he would want to include Wang Cheng in his movie.

"Haha, it's hard to say, Lao Guan and I will do the same!"

Zhang Heping smiled and didn't say anything, he just said give it a try.

Qin Yuhai smiled and said: "Sure, if you put some thought into it, I won't disturb you in preparing for the live broadcast. We will talk again after the show is broadcast."

Zhang Heping: "Okay, let's talk later!"

Qin Yuhai: "Okay, let's talk later..."

hang up the phone.

Zhang Heping continued to go back to work. Although he had other thoughts about this live broadcast, he also hoped that he could gain popularity and attention through this live broadcast, so he would prepare as much as possible to perform better.

Qin Yuhai put down the phone, looked a little more relaxed, and said to Shen Shenghui not far away: "We should be very confident this time. With Zhang Heping and Guan Sheng going together, Zhang Xiao and Wu Zixin will also give some face to cooperate. When the time comes, Wang Cheng It will definitely not end well on the live broadcast stage, haha..."

Shen Shenghui smiled and said: "This time President Qin personally took action, and it will definitely be successful. Huang Ping and Sun Hongchao both called me last night and asked us to agree to live broadcast the show. I agreed without a second thought. This is of course a good thing!"

Qin Yuhai turned around, looked at the Huangpu River outside, and whispered softly: "The clear sky is better when the water is shining, and the mountains are also strange when they are empty and rainy. If the West Lake is compared to the West, heavy makeup and light makeup will always match!"

After closing his eyes slightly, shaking his head and savoring it in his mind, Qin Yuhai continued: "This poem really brings West Lake to life, and directly compares West Lake to Xi Shi, one of the four beauties! Wang Cheng's talent, There’s really nothing to say. It’s a pity that this work was taken away by Han Xiao!”

Shen Shenghui laughed along with him and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Qin. Wang Cheng left in a hurry yesterday afternoon, and the three assistants forgot to bring the pen, ink, paper and inkstone prepared by the company for Wang Cheng. At that time, Wang Cheng said he wanted to write After ordering something, the assistant immediately asked the hotel for help. As a result, the hotel informed the program team, and Han Xiao and the others ran over."

Qin Yuhai waved his hand and shook his head: "I don't blame you. I know that even if Wang Cheng uses what the company prepared for him, he will not be able to hand over the work he wrote to us. I understand Wang Cheng's thinking and logic, the company and He has a contractual relationship, he has made so much money for the company, and the company should prepare anything for him, so there is no debt."

Shen Shenghui nodded immediately: "Yes, that's the truth."

Qin Yuhai stood up and said with a smile: "This morning, several big guys from Shanghai City called me and asked about Wang Cheng's song "First Sunny in the West Lake". The highest asking price was 50 million, and they wanted me to help buy it. Of course I had no choice but to refuse! As a result, they wanted to give me a deposit to book Wang Cheng's next work, and two of them directly gave me a deposit of 10 million."

"To put it grandly, no matter how much Wang Cheng's next work costs, they want it. Haha, what can I do? I can only refuse and return the deposit. I don't know if they will be offended this time. ”

Shen Shenghui didn't dare to speak. He didn't dare to speak about this kind of deal involving the top circles in the city. If word spread, he might not be able to stay in the city anymore.

Qin Yuhai sighed again: "They always think that Wang Cheng is just a nineteen-year-old boy from an ordinary family. He has no social experience or background. He only has talent and strength. They think that I can manipulate Wang Cheng at will. They don't know, There is absolutely nothing we can do against Wang Cheng."

With a change of tone, Qin Yuhai asked: "By the way, I just received a call from the superior department in Beijing, asking me to try my best to persuade Wang Cheng to join a domestic music university. This is an old leader who helped me a lot when I was young. , even he took action, what’s going on?”

Shen Shenghui was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Maybe it's because Penguin Video uploaded Wang Cheng's personal concert video!"

Qin Yuhai frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Didn't it just upload it today?"

Shen Shenghui's eyes flashed with wonder, and he nodded: "Yes, it was uploaded at around eight o'clock in the morning to be precise. He Yang from Penguin Video and Yu Jinghong from Penguin Entertainment went to Wang Cheng's hotel to sign the contract. Then, less than half the time Within hours, Penguin Video quickly transferred all the copyright fees to Wang Cheng, and also helped file the tax, and Wang Cheng received more than 600 million!"

After a few pauses, Shen Shenghui said in a complicated tone: "Until now, Wang Cheng has still filed taxes in his own name, and the taxes he paid are the highest! These few times, he has paid about one billion in personal taxes alone!"

Qin Yuhai was stunned for a moment, a trace of envy and surprise flashed in his eyes.

Wang Cheng's ability to make money has really shocked and envied him, a big boss in the entertainment industry, time and time again.

However, Wang Cheng's style of treating money like dirt also left him speechless!

They all try every means to avoid taxes. The same is true for celebrities and artists with a certain status in the industry. They will open a studio company or the like, and their income will go to the company account. At the same time, they will also do some tax avoidance such as charity. Compared with Wang Cheng Pay a lot less tax.

but……

Qin Yuhai: "Have you asked Wang Cheng about tax avoidance?"

Shen Shenghui nodded: "Well, I asked him a long time ago, and he said no, just pay according to individual taxes."

The two were silent for a while, and they really admired Wang Cheng.

However, if Wang Cheng has some black spots and is not perfect in terms of behavioral ethics, they will be more unscrupulous when targeting Wang Cheng, and they will be more unrestrained in doing things. They can act in a targeted manner, and it will be easier to take Wang Cheng out. Down.

But……

They are the people who know Wang Cheng best in the circle, and they know best how perfect Wang Cheng is in reality, so perfect that they can't believe it.

Therefore, they really admired Wang Cheng, but from a profit standpoint, they had to find a way to keep Wang Cheng and do something against Wang Cheng.

However, their actions against Wang Cheng were as within the rules as possible and they would not do anything out of the ordinary.

because……

They also really don't want to become life-and-death enemies with such a perfect young star artist.

The two were silent for a few seconds, and Qin Yuhai continued to ask: "So, what is the situation in the video? Did it alert the old leaders in Beijing to contact me personally?"

Shen Shenghui came to his senses and continued: "According to the latest news I learned, so far, just three or four hours after Penguin Video uploaded Wang Cheng's concert video, the number of domestic views has exceeded 300 million! The reputation is excellent, and at the same time The playback volume abroad is also extremely high, exceeding 30 million, and the reputation is also very good. This is a record-breaking miraculous playback volume for classical music."

"It has been praised at home and abroad, and many famous foreign music schools have publicly invited Wang Cheng! Therefore, professionals in the field of classical music are all praising him! A large number of fans have gathered at home and abroad."

"It will continue to ferment in the future. Maybe, the higher-ups are worried about the risk of Wang Cheng going abroad, so they want us to find a way to keep Wang Cheng in the country. It is best to join a music college..."

"It is really not an exaggeration to say that Wang Cheng is the number one person in the field of classical music at home and abroad."

Qin Yuhai looked serious. The better Wang Cheng was, the greater the pressure he felt. He said softly: "If only... Wang Cheng had signed a standard contract..."

After hearing this, Shen Shenghui nodded and said: "Yes, if it is a standard contract for trainees, it will start at least five years, then we don't have to worry so much."

Qin Yuhai: "How is the public opinion outside now?"

Shen Shenghui: "Wang Cheng still dominates a lot of popularity and traffic resources, but now the focus is on Wang Cheng's performance in his concert video."

Qin Yuhai waved his hand: "You should always pay attention to the trend of public opinion. When the live broadcast of the program starts in the afternoon, give some guidance."

Shen Shenghui: "Okay, Mr. Qin, I have already negotiated with the publicity department..."

…………

I am an actor, working on the production site.

Everyone is still busy...

Wang Cheng was still sitting in his seat and looking at the screen on his mobile phone, but now he had placed the screen on his phone on the small table in front of him. He had a notebook and a pen in his hand. He was looking at the screen on the TV and speaking from time to time. He was writing something in his notebook, looking very serious and paying no attention to everything around him!

Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, An Keru, and Han Xiao also got into the mood, and they all found their partners to rehearse with their partners to familiarize themselves with the feeling of the stage.

For An Keru, this kind of thing is very familiar and easy.

But it was almost the first time for Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, and Han Xiao, and they were all relatively unfamiliar, so they kept asking for advice from the actors who played opposite them and the assistant director who directed them.

Only Wang Cheng was sitting there watching the video, and no one dared to disturb him.

Shen Xinyan, Ma Jianfeng, and Zhao Xiang wanted to go over and play with Wang Cheng several times, but they were stopped by Zhang Heping and Guan Sheng, who told them not to disturb Wang Cheng. The three of them also listened to the words of the two judges who were big players in the industry. , did not disturb Wang Cheng.

Until one o'clock noon...

An alarm appeared on Wang Cheng's mobile phone. As soon as it rang, he paused the video, then picked up the mobile phone and the notebook in his hand, stood up and took a sip of water, then put everything into his backpack one by one, carrying it on his back. Grabbing my backpack, I walked towards the exit.

Time to get off.

Everyone in the program team was prepared for this, so they were not too surprised. However, most people looked at Wang Cheng curiously and watched as Wang Cheng left with his three assistants as if there was no one around.

"You're so cool. I've been on the stage for more than ten years and I've met most of the celebrities. This is the first time I've seen someone so cool. Those little freshmen who used to be big names didn't dare to go too far when they came to our stage!"

"I get off work on time, and I'm cleaner than any civil servant. It's just like the legend says."

"The program team and the leaders at the station still dare not speak."

"He also watched the video all morning. He didn't know what he was doing. He didn't work overtime at noon and came to work at four o'clock. We will be live broadcasting at six o'clock. Can he perform well by then?"

"Don't worry about it. Just do our own thing. The director has them to worry about."

…

Some staff members of the program team talked for a while and stopped talking, continuing to work on their own affairs. They had no rest time at noon, so they had to work overtime and have some lunch here.

Even the contestants and actors on the show are like this. They will not leave. They will just have a meal and rest here for a while, and then continue rehearsing.

Only Zhang Heping and other four judges had some rest time at noon, but they would not go back to the hotel to rest. Instead, they would rest in the special lounge of the program team for about an hour, and then continue to work.

Zhang Heping looked at Wang Cheng's leaving figure, shook his head and said, "I don't understand how he can achieve such perfection in calligraphy and music like this!"

Guan Sheng also shook his head: "I don't understand either. Also, don't forget, he has also achieved the ultimate in popular dance. These require a lot of time to learn and accumulate."

Zhang Xiao: “Maybe this is talent!”

Wu Zixin frowned slightly and said worriedly: "But, he didn't rehearse this morning, and Shen Xinyan and the others didn't play with Wang Cheng. How will he perform in the afternoon?"

Zhang Heping said with a smile: "Perhaps they have never thought about performing well? Director Huang has prepared several teleprompters, and he is afraid that one of them will break and delay Wang Cheng from reading the lines..."

The more serious Wu Zixin was a little unhappy about this, but he wouldn't say anything more and just remained silent.

Among the four Wen Yixiao, only An Keru chose to rest because she had completely mastered the parts she was going to perform, which really put no pressure on her, while the other three decided to stay and continue to practice overtime. , try not to be delayed during the live broadcast performance in the afternoon!

In terms of professionalism, Wen Yixiao and the others are absolutely fine. They are used to seeing many popular celebrity artists being lazy and showing off their big names, and everyone in the program team also approves of Wen Yixiao and the others.

Zhang Heping looked at Wen Yixiao and the others and said, "These girls will definitely become great talents in the future!"

Zhang Xiao also nodded: "Well, they are very serious and dedicated. As long as they continue to persevere, they will definitely achieve extraordinary results!"

Guan Sheng pointed it out directly and said: "They have become great talents. The four of them are already super giants, and Zhu Ziqi's fans have exceeded 50 million!"

For an instant, Zhang Heping and Zhang Xiao stopped talking, a little autistic, but thinking of Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru, who could be said to have grown in popularity because of Wang Cheng's popularity, they were somewhat unconvinced.

An Keru followed Wang Cheng and asked with concern: "Wang Cheng, how are you preparing? I see you have been watching the original film this morning?"

Wang Cheng hummed and said nothing more.

An Keru: "Do you need my help? I can help you with the scene."

Wang Cheng shook his head: "No, I'm not ready yet..."

Forehead……

not ready yet?

An Keru didn't understand what Wang Cheng meant.

Because she didn't know whether Wang Cheng knew acting or not, and she didn't know what Wang Cheng meant when he said he wasn't ready, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

Sun Hongchao, the producer of the program team, also caught up with him and personally sent Wang Cheng back to the hotel. He knew that Wang Cheng had watched videos all morning and didn't know what videos Wang Cheng was watching, so he didn't ask about work matters. He just asked. Said: "Wang Cheng, are you used to coming to the program team?"

Wang Cheng: "Well, it's okay!"

Sun Hongchao: "Don't worry, as long as you come to our station's program team, we will definitely make you feel comfortable and make you feel like you are at home."

As a producer, Sun Hongchao is an old man in the studio, so the core task is to establish a good relationship with Wang Cheng and strive for the opportunity to cooperate with Wang Cheng for a long time next time.

As for this cooperation, which cost nearly 300 million to invite Wang Cheng, they didn't care much about Wang Cheng's performance on the show.

After all, everyone knows that Wang Cheng can't act, so it's okay to perform poorly.

However, this does not affect Wang Cheng's value at all.

As long as Wang Cheng can be invited to participate in another season of music performance programs next time, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV will make a lot of money. If they can create a program like tomorrow's idol, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV will not have to worry about it in the next ten years.

Therefore, Sun Hongchao didn't ask anything about Wang Cheng's work today.

The car quickly returned to the hotel...

When Wang Cheng returned to the hotel, the food was just delivered to the room. After a simple meal, he lay down and took a nap.

Although he has not finished watching the original film, Wang Cheng will not continue watching it after get off work hours!

Even if he is extremely serious about his career as an actor, he will never work overtime for an actor again in his life.

Four p.m……

Wang Cheng arrived at the program site on time.

The entire program team is even busier because the broadcast is about to start in two hours.

But Wang Cheng still sat down and continued to watch the original film...

The entire program team did not pay attention to what Wang Cheng was doing, and all agreed that Wang Cheng would just go through the motions on stage and recite his lines into the teleprompter.

Shen Xinyan, Ma Jianfeng, and Zhao Xiang, the three young actors who wanted to work with Wang Cheng, all felt the pressure. They glanced at Wang Cheng from time to time, and then thought of ways to not be too embarrassed when they performed with Wang Cheng...

Because they have all had the experience of working with popular celebrity artists before, and it was really embarrassing when they performed together!

They just hope that Wang Cheng will not embarrass them like those popular celebrities!

time flies……

At half past five, the stage was ready. Several contestants and actors rehearsed their main competition performances several times on the stage. Then the time was almost up and the guests had no time to rehearse their performances.

Huang Ping came to the guests Wang Cheng and An Keru again and warned: "Sorry, we are short of time and don't have time for you to go on stage to rehearse. So when you perform, be as relaxed as possible and don't make mistakes." Okay. Look at the teleprompter more..."

An Keru, Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, and Han Xiao all nodded seriously to express their understanding.

Only Wang Cheng was still looking at his phone and writing something on the notebook in his hand.

Huang Ping didn't look carefully at what Wang Cheng was doing, and just asked Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, I need your cooperation later, okay?"

Wang Cheng raised his head and glanced at Huang Ping, nodded and said seriously: "I will try my best!"

In any job, Wang Cheng will try his best to do his best.

This is what he meant by trying his best.

but……

In Huang Ping's ears, it was Wang Cheng who knew he couldn't perform and tried his best not to hold him back!

Huang Ping was also very satisfied with this: "Okay, I look forward to your performance!"

After saying that, Huang Ping turned around and walked towards the program team, holding a walkie-talkie and loudly said: "The live broadcast will start in five minutes. Each unit will check one last time to see if everything is ready. If there are any problems, deal with them as soon as possible!"

"Teacher Zhang, Teacher Guan, Teacher Zhang Xiao, Teacher Wu, please return to the judges' table!"

"Dear players, adjust your status and start immediately..."

The entire program team was tense and making final preparations.
