Movie King Conquers Game

Seeing Bai Yanfei, Zhong Zilin was taken aback for a moment, then gritted his teeth, and the displeased expression on his face expanded a bit.When he left the artist's dormitory that day, he saw the back of a person in the corridor who seemed a bit like Bai Yanfei, but he didn't expect it was really him.

This poor ghost with a child in a dilapidated rented house really saved Wen Tingyu's life, and then got lucky and ascended to heaven from then on?Zhong Zilin looked at Brother Wei who was standing next to Bai Yanfei, and he already understood eight or nine points in his heart. It seems that Wen Tingyu didn't break his promise, he actually signed a contract with this kid to make his debut, and arranged a coercion that no number of artists wanted. Brother is his agent, heh, so generous.

However, a young rookie like Bai Yanfei must not realize the benefits of hanging out with Wei Ge at all, what a waste of money.

Zhong Zilin really didn't understand, why did Wen Tingyu protect Bai Yanfei like this, if he really wanted to thank him for saving his life, wouldn't it be enough to give him more money?

It was also the first time Bai Yanfei met Zhong Zilin face to face since the night in the rental house. He never forgot this guy's handsome appearance and duplicitous character.Zhong Zilin nodded and bowed in front of Wen Tingyu, pretending to be his grandson, and when he turned around to face Bai Yanfei, he made a 180-degree turn of attitude, which impressed Bai Yanfei deeply and was really unforgettable.

However, after signing the contract, strictly speaking, they are now brothers and sisters, and they must live in peace with each other, so Bai Yanfei didn't say anything, and honestly moved aside to let Zhong Zilin walk over.Zhong Zilin glanced at Bai Yanfei out of the corner of his eye, and walked away with his hands in his trouser pockets, followed by a small manager with black-rimmed glasses. He glanced at Bai Yanfei, and snorted coldly, A look of disdain.

The two walked into a room one after the other. There were no photography props in it, only a few staff members were sitting scattered, as if they were in a meeting.As soon as the staff saw Zhong Zilin and his manager, they immediately welcomed them in with wide smiles.

The door was closed, and with that slamming sound, the atmosphere in the corridor outside immediately became subtle.

There were two boys wearing peaked caps leaning against the door of other rooms, and one of them sneered: "Did you see his manager? It's really a dog. Now that Zhong Zilin is popular, that dog slave will immediately look like his master, with his tail raised to the sky I went. When they were filming commercials a few years ago, they both pretended to be grandchildren and distributed business cards to people in turn, but people didn’t even look at them, and turned around and threw them into the trash can.”

The other brother also laughed: "It's not the first day you know Zhong Zilin, what's the surprise? He has always been good at flattering the high and stepping down the low. When he meets a powerful and valuable financial backer, he will be a dog; Seeing ordinary people who are useless, he puts on airs as soon as he turns his face. Maybe a small worker like us goes to give him a boxed lunch, and he will just roll our eyes at us and think that the food is not delicious, and turn around and take the boxed lunch away. Honor his big boss Wen Tingyu."

"Nonsense, how can a man as rich as Wen Tingyu eat boxed lunches?"

"You are short-sighted. In your eyes, a boxed lunch is just a boxed lunch, but in Zhong Zilin's eyes, it is just a flattering prop. People will find opportunities to give the boss a boxed lunch when he needs one. That's why he has become a big star. You can't make it."

"I don't want to be a big star, I'm satisfied if I get a box lunch of fried chicken drumsticks every day."

"It's worthless, fried chicken legs are enough? Don't you want fried pork chops?"

"I want it, and I want the fish-flavored eggplant!"

The two younger brothers chattered nonsense while Bai Yanfei was listening beside him, feeling quite complicated in his heart.He turned his head and asked Wei Ge: "Wei Ge, should I also learn to be more clever like Senior Brother Zhong?"

Wei Ge leaned against the wall, noncommittal: "Even if the eunuch knows how to serve people again, he can't be the prime minister."

Bai Yanfei frowned in confusion, why did Wei Ge suddenly become an expert in complaining?But from his tone, it seems that he doesn't like Zhong Zilin very much, and he doesn't want to let himself learn from him, so honestly don't learn from him.Anyway, Wen Tingyu eats two bites of bread at night like a little chicken, and there is no need for him to deliver a box of lunch...

At this time, a kind-hearted middle-aged man came over.He wears the same peaked cap as the chat boy, is thin, wears a khaki vest, and has a pleasant smile.Seeing him taking the initiative, Wei Ge went up to meet him: "Mr. Du, you've worked hard today."

Teacher Du shook hands with Wei Ge with a smile: "It's not hard, it's not hard. I was busy shooting a group of outdoor sports advertisements during the day, so I came here at this hour. I'm sorry." He looked at Bai Yanfei standing behind Wei Ge : "My little brother is very energetic and handsome. He will definitely have a bright future in the future. Mr. Wen can make a lot of money this time."

Bai Yanfei smiled shyly. Although he knew that this was just a random scene made by an old bird who was used to the circle, he was still very happy to be praised so much in person.

Wei Ge took Bai Yanfei's shoulders and pushed him in front of Teacher Du: "Mr. Du, as usual, take a look at the child's overall temperament and see how to package it properly. The promotional materials are waiting to be made. In addition, This time, Mr. Wen is in a hurry to make his debut, and this kid hasn't had a few days of training, so he might be nervous when he is on camera, and he can't pose in complicated poses."

Teacher Du still smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, if you don't know how to pose, you mainly shoot the upper body. Do you think those flat models have a sense of camera? Don't they all rely on my skillful hands to make flowers? Okay, just take a look at it casually." , I’ll take care of Zilin and Qingqiu’s affairs first, and I’ll come back to you later.”

With that said, he also walked into the room where Zhong Zilin went just now.

Bai Yanfei was quite strange: "Zilin and Qingqiu, do you mean Senior Brother Zhong and Senior Sister Luo?"

Wei Ge nodded: "Ms. Du is the exclusive photographer of the international clothing brand DNC's print advertisements in China. Zhong Zilin and Luo Qingqiu have endorsed the men's and women's casual wear in recent years. The print advertisements are new every September, so Mr. Du's photography The team came to work today."

Bai Yanfei thought about it, it turned out that he came to ASE only for his own job, and taking promotional photos for him was just incidental.

Wei Ge looked at Bai Yanfei, and added: "Teacher Du is currently the leading figure in the domestic fashion photography industry. The fashion magazines on the market and many fashion print advertisements in shopping malls are all produced by him. It's no problem to let him take pictures of you. You don't care if he's here for you or someone else, he won't cut corners just because you're not a star."

Bai Yanfei scratched his head, Wei Ge actually saw through his mind at a glance.

Wei Ge and Bai Yanfei were chatting outside, but the atmosphere in the conference room was not very good.As soon as Mr. Du walked into the room, he saw that the staff inside were all stern, as if they were arguing about something, and Zhong Zilin, who was sitting on the sofa, was even more livid, as if he had been owed a huge debt.

Teacher Du smiled: "What are you talking about? It's getting late, so get ready. I have other things to do later, and you all have to call it a day and eat early."

A staff member wearing a vest said: "Mr. Du, Mr. Zhong said that he is not satisfied with the current price offered by DNC."

Teacher Du still smiled: "Oh, do you think DNC pays less? We, part-time workers, can't make decisions about this. We have to talk to the senior management of their company. Besides, this is not the first time Zilin has cooperated. I don’t understand the process of this aspect, every year this batch of advertisements is negotiated and signed the contract at the beginning of the year, everyone is satisfied with all aspects of the terms, why did they suddenly change their minds when it came time to take pictures?”

Zhong Zilin said lukewarmly: "My career has entered a period of growth since this year, and my net worth is rising every day. The contract finalized at the beginning of the year is no longer in line with the current situation. After the first generation of Jianzong started broadcasting last month, the ratings After eight o'clock, more than a dozen international brands came to me for endorsement. I could have turned down the DNC contract with excuses, but I was a little soft-hearted after years of happy cooperation, so I tried my best to accept it."

Teacher Du nodded with a smile: "Oh, a generation of swordsmen, my relatives and friends are watching this TV series, and they like it very much."

Zhong Zilin frowned: "Mr. Du, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand? DNC offered [-] yuan for this batch of print advertisements, which is impossible for me to accept such a condition given my current status. Besides, DNC is only an international third-tier brand. My willingness to shoot is already a step back. Since my side is easy to discuss, shouldn't the DNC also show a little sincerity and renegotiate the revenue sharing?"

Luo Qingqiu sat next to him, lowered his head and played with his nails, without saying a word, and glanced at Zhong Zilin out of the corner of his eyes, looking a little displeased.

Teacher Du nodded again, and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, your current value has risen, and [-] is indeed a bit small." At this time, the brother from the photography studio brought tea, and Teacher Du took a sip Hot tea, and said: "However, I still say the same thing, you have to discuss the money with the DNC company, I can't make the decision."

Zhong Zilin smiled: "Okay, let's talk about it after I discuss it with the company. I won't take pictures today."

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the conference room.

Zhong Zilin ignored them, got up and left.

He left the room, Luo Qingqiu chased him out from behind: "Zilin, don't be so disrespectful."

Zhong Zilin looked back at her, and said disdainfully: "Why am I not good-looking? I'm not you. Do you think it's appropriate for me to have 5 yuan as an endorsement fee? You have such a good relationship with Tao Yuanyuan, and you must know that Jian Zong is popular." In the future, the price of a sports brand she endorsed has been raised to 50!"

"Yuanyuan is the endorsement of Quantong, and you are only the endorsement of print advertisements, which is different from her situation."

"That Tao Yuanyuan's family took the initiative to raise the price, isn't that true? Look at the DNC again. A group of foreigners in charge only know how to pretend to be stupid. At this time, they still want to send me 5 yuan, daydreaming! "

Luo Qingqiu frowned: "Even if DNC didn't take the initiative to raise the price, you shouldn't ask for conditions at this time. Teacher Du and dozens of people in the whole studio are waiting. Everyone hasn't had dinner yet. You can say it by yourself. If you don't shoot, you won't shoot?"

Zhong Zilin sneered: "That's the best way. Do you think I'm suddenly acting like a celebrity when things come to an end? No, I just want to raise the price at this critical juncture to kill those foreigners at DNC. Let Mr. Du's studio A trip to ASE for nothing will cause them much loss. I know in my heart. If DNC feels sorry for the loss, it will immediately raise the price, quickly settle me, and let me agree to continue to cooperate. This efficiency is much higher than ordinary negotiations. Those foreigners were scared, so they immediately pulled money out of their pockets!"

Luo Qingqiu has nothing to say, temporary price asking in the workplace is a common method of scheming celebrities.If a job is negotiated according to the normal process, the cooperative company will often try its best to lower the price, and make all kinds of troubles and cry for money. The purpose is to spend less money to achieve better advertising effects.

Therefore, after the stars gain experience, they will deliberately quit when things are imminent, and let the staff wait.An hour of waiting is a big loss, and it will be even more troublesome to negotiate with other stars later, so the partner company will temporarily increase the price in order to calm things down, and the star will get the desired price.

There are two results of doing this. One is that the partner company left a bad impression on the star and terminated the contract; the other is that the star has a huge market appeal, even after raising the price, it will bring huge benefits to the partner company. The company sees the profit As a child, I will tolerate the behavior of the star, and maybe I will be more cautious in cooperating with him in the future.

With Zhong Zilin's current popularity, there is absolutely no problem in achieving the latter result.

Luo Qingqiu also knew that the DNC's failure to raise the price was indeed a deliberate pretense.Therefore, although Zhong Zilin's behavior was very unseemly, it cannot be said that he did something wrong. He was just using some means to force the DNC to change the current unreasonable price. He is qualified to do so in his position.

She felt very helpless. Although Zhong Zilin had a bad temper, DNC was indeed not a good thing.

Zhong Zilin was too lazy to chat with Luo Qingqiu, so he turned around and left.He was going to have a drink at the bar downstairs. Anyway, the manager was still in the meeting room, so it would be fine to leave everything to him. After a while, the DNC would beg him to go back in a low voice.

At this time, Tao Yuanyuan came from the other end of the corridor, and when she saw Zhong Zilin, she greeted him happily: "Hi!"

Zhong Zilin sneered: "50 brand endorsement little princess, hello~"

Tao Yuanyuan was puzzled, Zhong Zilin didn't look at her, turned around and walked away angrily.

"What's the matter?" Tao Yuanyuan was puzzled, "Your commercial hasn't finished filming yet?"

"What a ghost, Zilin thinks that DNC's asking price is too low, so he just sat on the ground and raised the price temporarily," Luo Qingqiu smiled wryly, "It seems to be a long time today, have you bought the Union sandwich I wanted?"

"Sandwiches and juices are all bought, so you can take pictures until twelve o'clock in the evening." Tao Yuanyuan held up the plastic bag in her hand.

"Crow's Mouth," Luo Qingqiu glanced at her, "Let's go make up and do the styling first, and let Teacher Du finish shooting my part first."

Bai Yanfei was chatting with the two photographers just now in another room, and Wei Ge called Xiao Zexuan by the window to report today's work.After Mr. Du entered the meeting room, he didn't come out for some reason. Bai Yanfei was free and had nothing to do. He sat around with his photography buddies, eating a pot of dragon fruit bought in a restaurant, and gossiping.

"Mr. Wen is quite a nice person. I think all the gossip about him on the Internet is a paper tiger." He bit a dragon fruit and said vaguely.

"Know people, know face, but don't know heart, if the boss of Minger summons you to sleep, you will know how powerful he is." Little brother A snickered.

"That's right, gossip doesn't have so many groundless rumors. I think Brother Fei, you are so stupid, and your buttocks are still so raised, so be careful in front of the boss~" Little brother B stretched out his hand to pat Bai Yanfei's strong waist and buttocks.

At this time, Luo Qingqiu and Tao Yuanyuan walked in. Tao Yuanyuan was taken aback when she saw Bai Yanfei, and then suddenly called out: "Ah!"

As soon as Bai Yanfei raised his head, his head immediately became two big.That day when Tao Yuanyuan pushed the door and hit his chest, and her eight-centimeter high-heeled shoes stepped on him, he still hasn't forgotten.Seeing her at this time, dark memories rushed out of her mind again, and her whole body began to ache.

"Qingqiu, I seem to remember who I stepped on that day, it's this face!" Tao Yuanyuan pointed at Bai Yanfei excitedly, "You, you, are you also a signed artist of ASE? Did I trample you that day? Do you want to go to the hospital?"

Bai Yanfei raised his forehead, what is there to be excited about reuniting with the victim by chance, besides, he has been trampled on for several days, if there is really something to do, he is still waiting to go to the hospital now?The goddess with big breasts and no brains is really not a legend!

He managed to squeeze out a little smile: "It's fine, you don't have to worry about it."—What the hell, it really is the distance that creates beauty.When he saw Tao Yuanyuan on TV back then, he could babble for three days. He never imagined that one day he could talk to a real person so calmly!

Seeing Tao Yuanyuan now, he didn't have any excitement or wonderful reverie, he could only think of his chest and feet that hurt to death that day.The otaku's dream of a goddess is also shattered too quickly, why can't God arrange a normal first encounter for them!

Tao Yuanyuan wasn't completely stupid, seeing that Bai Yanfei didn't seem to want to talk to her, she obediently shut up.

Luo Qingqiu, who was on the side, was very surprised. She looked at Bai Yanfei calmly, and a very strange thought came to her mind——this young man is very similar to Zhong Zilin's style when he debuted!

Luo Qingqiu and Zhong Zilin signed with ASE at the same time, and they were very familiar with each other during the artist training class. When they graduated, ASE came to pick people, and only two of them were selected among all the students.Therefore, Luo Qingqiu is more familiar with the early Zhong Zilin than most people. She can tell at a glance that the healthy, youthful, and cheerful aura on Bai Yanfei is subtly similar to Zhong Zilin's back then.

But Wen Tingyu has never signed artists with similar styles. Every artist under him is very recognizable. Why did he suddenly sign such a person?Luo Qingqiu knew the depth of Wen Tingyu's city, and she suddenly felt a little worried about Zhong Zilin.

Hope she's just worrying too much.

After Luo Qingqiu and Tao Yuanyuan came in, Bai Yanfei and the photography buddies were too embarrassed to make dirty jokes.Everyone in the room is busy with their own business, two girls get together to eat sandwiches, three guys get together to eat dragon fruit, Wei Ge is alone by the window on the phone.

No one came out of the conference room all the time, and the situation didn't seem to be good.

Zhong Zilin's manager was still entangled with a group of staff members inside. He sat on the sofa proudly, "Mr. Du, our Zilin is now a first-line male star in ASE. He has a very strong market appeal. If It is definitely a great loss for the DNC to lose him this time."

Teacher Du nodded with a smile: "Yes, yes. Zilin is very popular and very photogenic. His commercials for DNC have always been perfect. I really like working with him."

The manager gritted his teeth. The old man was smiling all day long, and he had no idea what he was thinking.If Zhong Zilin is really as good as he said, then he should be very anxious now, why is he still calm and doesn't care about the price increase?

He thought for a while, and could only take the initiative: "Then, it's not an option to just wait like this. Teacher Du, why don't you contact the DNC to see what the company's executives have to say?"

Teacher Du smiled: "That's right, those of us who work part-time can't make the decision, so let the boss who is in charge make the decision."

He stood up and went to the window to make a phone call.The manager was really elated, as long as the DNC executives let go, this matter will be done!He had already analyzed with Zhong Zilin that those shrewd foreigners were just pretending to be stupid, to scare them a little bit, and save the money!

Mr. Du stood by the window, took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. There was a busy signal. He waited for a while and dialed again.

There were a few rings over there, and someone picked it up: "Hi, I'm Xiao Zexuan."

Teacher Du chuckled: "Zexuan, I'm already in your company."

Xiao Zexuan's voice was very polite: "It's Teacher Du, I'm still stuck on the road, and I'll go back to the company as soon as possible. It's hard for you to come here so late today, please leave the DNC advertisement and newcomer promotional materials. I will treat you to dinner later. .”

Teacher Du smiled again: "You are too polite, if only Zilin was half as polite as you."

Xiao Zexuan heard something was wrong in Teacher Du's words, and asked, "What's wrong with Zilin?"

Teacher Du said implicitly: "DNC's asking price of 5 yuan is indeed a bit low considering Zilin's current net worth. But it is an international third-tier brand after all, and it has no plan to spend a lot of money to invite first-tier celebrities to endorse in China. Yes, this is not in line with its financial strength and market positioning."

Xiao Zexuan understood as soon as he heard it, it must be Zhong Zilin who is throwing a temper tantrum when something is imminent.Since the first generation of Jianzong became popular, his worth has risen, and he no longer likes the low-priced endorsements of some small brands.Teacher Du's meaning is also very clear, DNC doesn't want to pay at all, they don't need a famous artist like Zhong Zilin to endorse.

Xiao Zexuan thought about it, half a minute ago he had just finished talking with Wei Ge on the phone, and he knew that Bai Yanfei was waiting for Teacher Du to help him take a promotional photo.He didn't forget Wen Tingyu's previous advice, and immediately made a decisive decision and asked, "Then, Mr. Du, let's arrange a replacement right now, do you think it's okay?"
