Superstars start as villains

Chapter 203 Naked Marriage Era?

Since this "century wedding", Tong Lia has completely stopped all work and rarely appeared in public, but what is unexpected is that her popularity has not plummeted. On the contrary, many passers-by passed through this "century wedding". "Wedding" fell in love with it, and passers-by turned fans.

Of course, some of them are Zhou Xing's fans, Ai Wu Ji Wu, and Tong Lia's Weibo suddenly dropped from 500 million fans to nearly 1000 million.

"Look, I'm very attractive. Even though I'm married, so many people like me." Tong Liya flaunted to Zhou Xing.

Zhou Xing laughed in his heart: "Yes, you are very attractive, but please drink the chicken soup first as a wife and pregnant with Liujia."

Hearing about drinking chicken soup, Tong Lia suddenly had a bitter face. The daughter-in-law was pregnant, so Zhou Xing’s mother was naturally worried and wanted to stay and take care of her. For the older generation of Cantonese people, making good soup is a basic skill. A bowl of soup can’t escape, sometimes it’s chicken, sometimes it’s pigeon or quail.

At first, Tong Lia was quite happy. Mama Zhou's handicrafts were quite good, and they were indeed nutritious. After drinking it for a month, she felt her skin glowed, but no matter how good it was, it couldn't hold up to drinking every day.

"Yaya, drink the soup while it's hot, don't forget." Mother Zhou shouted in the living room.

Tong Liya immediately acted like a mouse seeing a cat: "Okay, Mom, I'll drink it right away."

After finishing speaking, he immediately changed into a pleading face: "Husband, I really can't drink anymore, please help me drink."

Well, this girl started to play tricks, Zhou Xing shook his head resolutely, but he still couldn't bear her pitiful look: "One and half, or we can't avoid talking."

Tong Lia quickly agreed, and then when Zhou Xing was drinking, he kept raising the bottom of the bowl, and in the end there was only one third left. Said that he had finished drinking, with a virtuous and obedient appearance.

Zhou Xing gave her a thumbs up, saying: You are a chicken thief, and then he was kicked out by Tong Liya who became angry from embarrassment.

"How's it going? Have you all drunk?" Zhou's mother cared more about this grandson than Zhou Xing.

Zhou Xing was a little helpless, and gave her the clean bottom of the bowl, and Zhou's mother was relieved, and then she focused on the TV.

At first, Zhou Xing didn't care, but when he looked at the TV screen, he was amused. Zhou's mother was actually watching Mango TV's "Gongsuo Xinyu".

"Mom, you're trendy enough to watch time-travel dramas like this," Zhou Xing said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Zhou's mother patted him angrily: "Don't make noise, I'm nervous about acting, alas, why is Su Yan so bad this year?"

Well, seeing his mother’s reaction, Zhou Xing knew that [Gongsuo Xinyu] was going to be popular. Originally, Gao Qunshu was a little worried. Such a time-travel drama whose script logic is not very rigorous, the older generation can’t accept it, but now watching it It turns out that I underestimated the desire of housewives to follow dramas.

Just as Zhou Xing expected, since its premiere on Mango TV on January 1, the national audience rating of [Gongsuo Xinyu] has reached 31%, which can be described as an instant hit.

The number one female Yang Mi has also become one of the hottest female stars at the moment. Even Yuan Shanshan, the second female lead, has turned from an unknown little transparent to overnight. was even more impressed.

With the broadcast of "Gong Suo Xin Yu", Yuan Shanshan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although it is a pity that she is not the number one female, as a newcomer, the first play can create an impressive character. The character is already a pretty good starting point.

What's more, what Yuan Shanshan didn't expect was that there was always Tong Lia on her head in "Zhixing Film and Television". No matter how famous she is, the company's best resources must be given to Tong Lia. When she got angry, she became pregnant and turned down all the jobs.

Although Yuan Shanshan was envious of Tong Lia for finding such a perfect man as Zhou Xing, she was overjoyed for a while. After all, after Tong Lia quit, she was a well-deserved first sister of "Zhixing Film and Television". Could the company's resources not be tilted toward her? Well?
No, the role of the leading lady in the company's latest project [Naked Marriage Era] fell on her.

Well, Yuan Shanshan feels that she is definitely lucky recently.

After he was busy with the wedding, Zhou Xing finally had time to visit "Zhixing Film and Television", but Gao Qunshu and Anli caught him as soon as he arrived at the company.

Zhou Xing was a little embarrassed. After all, as a boss, he hadn't visited the company for two months, and it was still in the initial stage of the company, which was a bit too much.

Gao Qunshu had a few harsh words with Anli before getting to the point.

Anli directly took out a document and handed it to Zhou Xing: "To put it simply, we don't have enough artists. This year, the company has approved projects, including two TV dramas and one movie, which are still under review, so I'm going to Sign some artists with more potential to join the company."

Zhou Xing nodded, this is what it should be, otherwise these projects would all be wedding dresses for others.

But looking at the information, there was a name, Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment: "If I remember correctly, this girl named Jiao Junyan should be Lan Lan's classmate?"

Anli smiled and said, "Not only her, but you also have an impression of Wang Ziwei, right?"

Of course, I have the impression that this Wang Ziwei is Tong Liya's best friend, and she is also one of the bridesmaids in this wedding.

Zhou Xing asked curiously, "I heard that she is going to be a village official?"

I remember he used this to motivate Zhou Lan back then.

Anli rolled her eyes secretly: "Please, it's only three years to be a village official, and she prefers acting. I found out that she has good qualifications, and she has good martial arts skills, which is worth cultivating."

Zhou Xing laughed for a while: "If you didn't say that, I really thought that the ones you signed were related households."

"Okay, I still believe in Miss Anli's vision, so let's do it." Zhou Xing made a decision.

Anli nodded: "I've already talked to them, and the others readily agreed, but one of them named Wang Kai has been unable to find anyone."

"Oh? What? He retired from acting?" Zhou Xing was curious

Anli shook his head: "I don't know yet. He signed with Huayi before. However, you also know that Huayi has so many big names. He couldn't get any resources. Later, he terminated the contract with Huayi. You also know that Huayi Wang Kai has not shown his face in the circle since he terminated the contract."

"Huayi should have his contact information, right?" Zhou Xing took a look at Wang Kai's information again.

Anli spread her hands: "It is estimated that the process of terminating the contract was not smooth. I asked Huayi, and they said that the other party had changed their contact information."

Zhou Xing understood as soon as he heard it, picked up the phone and called Li Xue.

"Hey, Mr. Zhou's newlywed Yan Er, why do you call me when you have time?"

Li Bingbing won the Best Actress Award at the Golden Horse Awards by relying on [Wind Voice]. Li Xue owes Zhou Xing a favor in this regard, and she also hopes to get more resources from Zhou Xing. After all, the Huayi family has a great career and artists There are many, and he is naturally very polite when speaking.

Zhou Xing didn't make a fool of himself: "This is not a problem. I want to ask Mr. Li for help. Huayi used to have an artist named Wang Kai. Didn't he terminate the contract? Sister Anli thinks this young man is not bad, you also You know, our small company is no bigger than the Huayi family, you see"

"Hey, just for this matter, I will send you his contact information and address right away." Li Xue covered the phone, called the assistant over, and asked her to find out Wang Kai's information.

The head of the artist department spoke, and the matter was naturally dealt with quickly. After Li Xue got the information, she took a look at it first. Of course, she didn't have any impression of a young actor like Wang Kai. "Film and TV" can be regarded as a little famous now, and it is impossible for Zhou Xing to like it if the conditions are too poor.

However, compared to Huayi, Wang Kai's qualifications are not so outstanding, and he has not become popular after acting in several plays, so Li Xue is naturally willing to sell this favor to Zhou Xing.

"Okay, then thank you, Mr. Li." Zhou Xing said politely.

Li Xue exchanged some pleasantries before hanging up the phone.

After Wang Kai's matter was resolved, Gao Qunshu also reported a series of work, such as a movie that was about to start shooting.

It’s interesting to say that the director of this movie, Teng Huatao, originally read two novels and thought they had good themes. He wanted to buy the copyright of the novels and make them into a film and television drama. After contacting the author, he found out that the two novels were similar. The copyright is in the hands of "Zhixing Film and Television".

So he took the initiative to come to the door to propose cooperation. Anyway, he got the right to adapt the novel to solicit investment. If "Zhixing Film and Television" could invest directly, it would save a lot of work.

For Teng Huatao, Gao Qunshu also attaches great importance to it. After all, he is the director of the hit drama "Snail House" in 09, so Teng Huatao's two projects, a TV series "Naked Marriage Era" and a movie "Broken Love 33 Days" were just approved.

Zhou Xing didn't pay much attention after reading the script and the budget. The investment in "Naked Marriage Era" was a little higher at around 2000 million, and the investment in "33 Days of Broken Love" was less than 1000 million, so even if you pay, you won't be able to pay much.

Zhou Xing nodded: "Have you decided on the actors for these two plays?"

Anli said: "[Naked Marriage Era]'s female number one was given to Yuan Shanshan, so the fat and water don't flow to outsiders, and her image is quite suitable. For the male number one, Teng Huatao wants to use her coat of arms. They have worked together before. We don't have any suitable actors for the time being, so we agreed."

"[33 Days of Broken Love], I am going to use Jiao Junyan as the female number one, and Teng Huatao still wants to use the crest as the male number one. I am going to contact Wang Kai first. If he is signed, let him try it first. Audition."

Zhou Xing frowned slightly: "Alright, but if Teng Huatao thinks that Wang Kai is not suitable, forget it, and make other arrangements. We still need to give the director a certain amount of creative space when we are making film and television dramas."

Anli nodded in agreement.

Zhou Xing asked Gao Qunshu again: "Old Gao, can this Teng Huatao be signed? Our company also needs to have its own director."

Just look at Huayi and the new screen. A reliable director is simply a priceless treasure for a film and television company. Teng Huatao's ability to make such a popular TV series as "Snail House" shows that he is still very talented, and he is enough. Young, a director born in the 70s, has more potential for development in the future.

Gao Qunshu thought for a while: "Okay, I'll talk to him first, if it really doesn't work, I still have to do it."

Indeed, although Gao Qunshu is the actual helm of "Zhixing Film and Television", the real boss is still Zhou Xing. In many things, Gao Qunshu's intervention is different from Zhou Xing's.

"No problem, try to meet his conditions, if we can't talk, I will come forward in person." Zhou Xingdao.

The important matters are finished, and the rest is some documents that need to be signed by Zhou Xing. The company's current personnel rights are in the hands of Gao Qunshu and Anli, but the financial scheduling still needs to be confirmed by Zhou Xing himself, and the accounts also need him. After the audit, the accountant can enter the account.

Fortunately, the company didn't start a show during this period, otherwise, just signing the financial report would be enough for Zhou Xing to drink a pot.

In the past, the financial affairs of "Zhixing Film and Television" were presided over by a professional accounting company, but compared with a small enterprise like "Zhixing Film and Television", the professional accounting company had too many frameworks and was not flexible enough. It also happened that Zhou Xing began to transform behind the scenes , These tasks are handled by him personally.

In the future, if Zhou Xing needs to go out to film for a long time, he must find someone he can trust to host.

On the other side, after Anli got Wang Kai's contact information and address, she made a phone call first, but before she could say a few words, she hung up there, probably thinking she was a liar.

There was no other way, Anli had no choice but to make a trip in person.

"Who?"

The doorbell rang five or six times, at this moment, the door opened, and a tall man in the crack of the door looked at Anli with an unkind expression.

"You, are you Wang Kai?" Anli was a little unsure, his appearance was very similar, but the person in front of him was a bit inconsistent with the sunny and handsome boy in the information, with heavy bags under his eyes, which were obviously dark circles left by staying up late, and his beard probably I haven't shaved for a while, and I haven't changed the pajamas I'm wearing for a while.

"Ah, you are?" Wang Kai looked suspicious, but the aura of the woman in front of him was very unusual, he changed his previous impatience and appeared very polite.

"Is it convenient to go in and have a chat?" Anli asked.

"Ah? Excuse me, please come in." Wang Kai just came back to his senses, and then cleaned up the things in the house, such as garbage bags, instant noodle buckets, smelly socks, etc., and opened the windows for ventilation. .

Anli glanced at the computer screen that was on: "I didn't expect you to like playing games?"

Wang Kai scratched his head in embarrassment, and sighed again: "Hey, I have nothing to kill time, otherwise, what else can I do?"

"Have you heard of Zhixing Film and Television?" Anli saw this and cut straight to the point.

Wang Kai's eyes lit up: "Of course you know, you."

Anli glanced at his watch, and handed over a business card: "I'll give you 10 minutes, pack yourself up, I'll wait for you outside, is that okay?"

"No." Anli had already gone outside the door before Wang Kai took the business card back to his senses.

The style of the business card is very simple, with only two lines of characters, below it is a name and phone number, and the general manager of the artist department of "Zhixing Film and Television" is printed on it.

All of a sudden, there was a flutter of chickens and dogs in the house.
