Who are you calling powerful?

Early the next morning, Lu Yu came to film the second episode of "Big Shots in a Day", but the location was no longer Yunhua Mansion, but Blue Whale Company.

When they arrived, Wei Yang hadn't come yet, so Lu Yu and the others simply took pictures of the inside of Blue Whale Company.

Of course, this was all well communicated. Wei Yang's secretary Hu Ya and a person in charge of the administrative department accompanied the whole process, arranging negotiations and determining the scope of recording.

As a media company, most of Blue Whale’s work cannot be kept secret, but it cannot shoot everything.

Going around, the room where Lu Yu and the others wandered the most was the Honor Room, where the various achievements of Blue Whale since its establishment were displayed and introduced, and there was also a lot of material to photograph.

During this period, Lu Yu also met Zhao Liying.

The latter's current main job is to supervise the production of "Extreme Challenge", but it does not mean that she is only responsible for this one project.

Especially since the summer season is about to begin, as the deputy art director + one of the top executives of the TV department, Zhao Liying can in principle be involved in a lot of work, and there are many tasks to pick and choose, which has caused her to go back to the company to deal with most of the time.

It is worth mentioning that "Strategy of the Ming Palace" was also nominated for the Magnolia Award this time.

However, this drama was broadcast on Hunan Province, so it was naturally not accepted by the Magnolia Awards, so Zhao Ji was only nominated for "Best Supporting Actress".

Zhao Liying didn't take it seriously. The overall plot of "Strategy of the Ming Palace" was still a bit entertainment-oriented, and it was not directly related. Even if it was nominated again, it would not win the TV drama award.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this year's Magnolia is basically pre-selected to be Miss Sun.

After all, the color of Modu Satellite TV between it and "The Legend of Miyue" is too strong.

Zhao Liying is also a personality. Since she has not been nominated, she will not go.

Of course, another more important reason is that Liu Shishi was nominated for the Magnolia TV Show for the third time for "Legend of Dance". The first two were "Jingxin" and "Mufu".

Although the chance of winning the award is very low, being nominated is also a victory, not to mention that she also has a role in "Nirvana in Fire".

Therefore, Liu Shishi was still very beautiful. Zhao Liying naturally didn't want to see her proud, so she chose to be out of sight and out of mind.

Not only her, but Rouba, Naza, and Fan Xiaopang who were not nominated also made such a decision.

After all, the Starry Ceremony is its own ceremony, and everyone may come to support it. Unless there are other awards themselves, don't rely on them to unite.

Not to mention the hostile ones, even two good friends, Da Mi Mi and Tang Yan, did not come to participate because they were busy promoting the summer movie.

This is not to say that they have small thoughts, they definitely do, but in this kind of thing they still have to advance and retreat together, showing harmony and intimacy.

But the key point is that Liu Shishi will most likely not win the award. He is just nominated, so there is no need to go to war.

Lu Yu is very interested in Zhao Liying.

On the one hand, it is because of the story between her and Boss Wei, and on the other hand, Zhao Liying is also very popular and topical, making her a good interview subject.

Zhao Liying also had a good attitude and exchanged contact information with Lu Yu.

Interviews don't do her any harm, so just record one if you have time.

While the two were chatting, Hu Ya answered the phone and reminded: "Mr. Wei is here."

After a while, Wei Yang's figure appeared in the camera. He was wearing trousers and leather shoes on the lower body, and a black silk shirt on the upper body. His excellent figure held up the clothes fully. The collar was untied, and he could wear it with his right hand. The valuable Peripherd watch looks exquisite and chic.

"Teacher Lu Yu came very early."

"Mr. Wei."

Lu Yu and others greeted each other, Zhao Liying also shouted seriously, and Wei Yang glanced at her.

"What are you talking about? You are so happy."

"We are discussing, if Mr. Wei comes so late, does it count as late?"

Zhao Liying teased Wei Yang with what she had just joked. It was almost nine o'clock now. According to Blue Whale's company regulations, Boss Wei was completely late and could even be considered absent from work.

"Forget it, it must count. How should I be punished? What are the company's regulations?"

"If you are criticized for being late once in a while, your salary will be deducted for the second time, usually 50 to 100. If you are late again, your attendance will be deducted. If you are late repeatedly, the punishment will be aggravated, usually within a month."

The person in charge of the administrative department on the side quickly reported to the boss. The HR department usually checks late arrivals and early departures, but the administration also often has some related work, so he knows the rules by heart.

"The criticism is too light, and I won't have perfect attendance, so let's fine me and deduct it from my salary."

That's right, Boss Wei doesn't have an annual salary of zero like other big bosses. He has a salary. Although it's not high, it adds up to hundreds of thousands every year, which is enough to pay these fines.

After deducting his salary as a bachelor, Wei Yang still wanted to find trouble with Zhao Liying, but unfortunately she was very smart and had just the right time to do so.

Mr. Zhao and Mr. Wei are different!

The latter is the big boss, and he is almost a wholly-owned shareholder. He has a clear voice in the entire company, and no one bothers him with such trivial matters.

Zhao Liying is different. Not only is she a senior executive, but she is also in a special position, so she has to pay more attention to the impact, even on trivial things.

Besides, she also knew that if Zhao Liying was late, she would not tease Boss Wei about it, otherwise she would be shooting herself in the foot.

Zhao Liying didn't stay long. After all, she was still wary of being in front of the camera, so she chatted and laughed for a while and went to work.

When she was here just now, Wei Yang seemed to be a relatively friendly boss or superior. The two seemed to know each other well, but they maintained a businesslike attitude.

This is not a show-off in front of the camera. Most of the two of them are in this state in non-private situations in the company, which is more conducive to work.

Boss Wei may not care about some criticism, but Zhao Liying does not want to position herself as a "empress" who relies on men, although she will never be able to get rid of this label in her life.

So Wei Yang was usually very cooperative, but when he saw Zhao Liying leaving, he still showed some sincerity and asked Lu Yudao with a smile.

"Isn't it different from the outside world's impression? She has a baby face, but she is a strong woman at heart."

Lu Yu nodded: "It's a little different from what I imagined, but considering Liying's results, it makes sense."

Zhao Liying's appearance is very confusing, with a petite figure and cute appearance. In her early years, she relied on the image of a sweet girl to start her career, so many people judge her by her appearance and think she is a silly person with no intentions.

However, this impression has changed a bit in the past two years. One is the strong rise of Zhao Liying, which shows her personal character from all aspects.

The other is the drama "Strategy of the Ming Palace". If "The Star" was just a small test, "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" was immediately followed.

The film "Strategy of the Ming Palace" at the beginning of the year can be regarded as Zhao Liying's transformation work. From the sweet girl, she started to move in the direction of an independent heroine.

The character Li Caifeng in "Strategy of the Ming Palace" is smart, decisive, good at talking, and understands the overall situation of the previous dynasty. In the early stage, she established a foothold in the backyard and helped King Jing seize the throne. In the later stage, she cooperated with Zhang Juzheng to assist the young emperor. The reforms in the first ten years of Wanli that ushered in the resurgence of the Ming Dynasty.

This role is very brilliant, and it also changes the outside world's impression of Zhao Liying, who is no longer stubborn about being a sweet girl.

What Lu Yu said was "reasonable" was influenced by Zhao Liying's daily life and "Ming Palace Strategy".

"Liying has a strong personality. She has been working hard over the years and has grown a lot. Gradually, she has helped me take off a lot of pressure."

Lu Yu felt something keenly: "Liying is planning to develop behind the scenes."

"There is a tendency to do so, but the show still has to be filmed. After all, there are still many viewers who like her. The proportion of people who can only work behind the scenes will become higher and higher. It still depends on personal choice."

Wei Yang's words were already a bit outrageous, and I don't know how many people thought it would come to mind when word spread.

But he doesn't care, he just wants to support his wife by saying this, and it also serves as a foreshadowing. The behind-the-scenes work can be kept hidden for a long time to facilitate the next plan.

I can’t wait for those three years!

Liu Shishi and Zhao Liying couldn't hold it any longer, and the older Fan Xiaopang was even more anxious. Wei Yang didn't know what would happen if it continued, so Boss Wei had to make some preparations.

After a brief taste, Wei Yang didn't talk much about Zhao Liying's issues, but took Lu Yu to visit his office.

This is nothing to talk about, it's just a normal office, at most a bit larger and a bit luxurious.

However, Wei Yang doesn't spend much time in this office, and he may not be able to stay here for even one month a year, so it's still quite a waste.

Wei Yang rarely went to the offices of companies such as Red Shark and PPTV, and he specifically told them not to make things too good. Some companies even did not need to give him an office.

But having said that, no company lacks his exclusive office, and it is definitely the largest and most luxurious one in the company.

At noon, Lu Yu and the others had lunch at Blue Whale. This program likes to film the three meals a day of big bosses, and they also visited many company cafeterias.

"The cafeteria here is not very good."

Wei Yang's lunch consisted of a portion of Mushu Pork and a portion of Fish-flavored Shredded Pork, followed by a portion of dumplings and some fruits.

Although the food was delicious, Wei Yang was not very satisfied: "Due to some regulations, the office building cannot directly open a canteen. Our lunch is specially ordered from a catering company. There are many restrictions, and the taste can only be said to be unsatisfactory. ”

"In contrast, you can go interview Red Shark next time, and PPTV is also available. It's a park over there, so the company can open its own canteen. The variety of dishes and dining environment are better than here."

"Then why not move the blue whale over?"

Lu Yu's question was a bit naive. Wei Yang smiled and did not answer. Can a media and entertainment company be the same as an Internet company? And why is it so easy to relocate a company?

However, this does not mean that Boss Wei will endure it all the time. Funds are not sufficient yet.

When Red Shark, the cash cow, makes a lot of money, it can directly purchase or build an office building or even a park. Then PPTV and Blue Whale will also benefit from it, and at worst they will have to contribute some money or pay rent.

During the meal, Lu Yu also mentioned the Magnolia Award held in the afternoon and asked Boss Wei if he was nervous.

"To say I'm not nervous at all would be an understatement, but overall it's fine. It's not the first time I've participated in this kind of event. I'm lucky to get it, but I'm going to lose my life."

"What are you going to do if you win the prize?"

"Well, I haven't thought about it. Maybe I'll have a meal with some friends to celebrate, or buy something to reward myself."

Wei Yang was really stumped by this question. Before, he only thought about whether to win the prize or not, but he really didn't think about what would happen if he got the prize.

Lu Yu started to ask questions that were not nutritious but might be of concern to many people: "What should we eat during the celebration? Do you have any ideas for gifts?"

"It's summer, let's have a barbecue. If you want a gift, reward yourself with a good horse. There just happen to be a lot of basic scenes in the next scene, so you can practice."

Wei Yang thought his idea was good, but he didn't know what the horse farm was like here in the Magic City. It would be inconvenient if he was fostered elsewhere.

Is it possible to invest in another horse farm?

Wei Yang smiled as he thought about it: "Isn't it the case that the awards haven't been awarded yet? We are just discussing it here. We don't want to open the champagne at halftime."

Lu Yu is very good at talking: "This is also a beautiful expectation."

"I still think this kind of flag is unlucky and easy to overturn. Usually when you are determined to win something, it is often unsatisfactory. As promised, if you don't win the prize, you have to cut this part to avoid embarrassment."

Lu Yu shook his head: "I have confidence in you, Mr. Wei. How about making a bet?"

"No gambling."

"This shows that Mr. Wei has confidence in himself."

Boss Wei smiled and said nothing. It was strange that he had no confidence. Despite his low-key words, in fact he already knew the outcome.

The achievements and influence of "Nirvana in Fire" are here, and the reputation is not bad. Boss Wei's voice is very high. This has created a good foundation for winning awards and will not cause controversy or opposition.

At the same time, this drama premiered on Shanghai TV and belongs to the direct line.

Not to mention that Wei Yang himself is a big boss in the Shanghai circle and has a good relationship with Shanghai TV.

As mentioned before, with the one-drama, two-star policy and the rise of PPTV as a platform, Wei Yang and Blue Whale no longer play both sides, but intend to deeply bind themselves to Magic City TV.

The two sides will become the staunchest allies and create a more powerful and influential "Shanghai Circle".

For example, in this summer strategy, aside from "White Night" and "Tomb Raiders", they are web dramas and will be broadcast exclusively on PPTV.

The other three dramas are obviously a collaboration between Mi Xing's "Dear Translator" and Hunan TV.

The remaining "Classmates" and "Golden Marriage" are all premiered on Shanghai TV.

Not only that, the follow-up "The First Half of My Life" by Fan Xiaopang, Rouba's "A Little Smile Is Alluring", "Ode to Joy 2" starring Molasses, and even "White Night" can be broadcast on TV, basically It’s all set on Magic City TV.

So this year, not only PPTV wants to sweep other websites, but also Modu TV intends to compete with Hunan TV.

Let’s see who is the boss of local TV!

Under such circumstances, how could Bai Magnolia treat the emperor as someone else? I really thought Boss Wei had no temper.

The previous two nominations were unsuccessful due to various reasons, so I just let it go. If I don't give it this time, it will be a trick on Wei Yang.

Hunan TV station Mango TV may not be able to fully cooperate with Blue Whale. Jiangsu Province and Zhejiang Province are watching eagerly. Magic City is not far from these two provinces. This made Wei Yang anxious and turned to cooperate with Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Magic City Satellite TV plummeted.

This is not an exaggeration. The rise of Modutai is inseparable from Wei Yang's help. This is recognized by the industry, including those within the station.

If Boss Wei dares to fall out, no one at Magic City TV can bear this responsibility.

It's just a trophy, and it's not about cutting the flesh. Even if someone's brain is damaged, others will have to wake it up.

Therefore, this year's Magnolia Vision Emperor is destined to be just a formality...
