Chapter 267
Mo Ziqing is a sharp sword that can cut yourself
I don’t know since when, the two styles of painting in front of and behind the camera have become the characteristics of domestic entertainment reality shows.
Therefore, when seeing a marketing account posting “Dear hero, please accept this show, it’s too tiring”, many netizens’ first reaction was disbelief.
How hard can it be for a group of celebrities to record a variety show? Don’t they just make money by lying down? Many programs with similar claims cannot withstand scrutiny of the details. As a producer, Xiao Zhang sometimes feels helpless about this, as his predecessors have really narrowed the path.
But "Hero, Please Take This" is indeed different. Facing the contemporary Leeuwenhoek netizens, some programs become more and more disgusting the more they dig into the inside, while "Take That" becomes funnier and funnier, and even makes people feel a little sympathy for the students.
When the top star walked out of the martial arts hall, his legs were weak, the popular young actor was tortured by the husky until he broke down and cried, the glamorous female star's training clothes could squeeze out half a bucket of sweat, and the new star screamed wildly to vent the pressure, and her mental state was very beautiful...
Some netizens commented sharply that real fatigue cannot be acted out. Even if we take a step back, if they really have such acting skills, there would be no need to suffer so much to record the show here. They would have won the Best Actor/Best Actress Grand Slam several times already.
Students: …
Why does this sound so strange? Just think of it as a compliment.jpg
Li Mingxu also complained during the live broadcast that compared to his fans who would feel sorry for him, this show is more suitable for his haters because he has a miserable life in it.
But what I never expected was that at this moment, all the comments were filled with laughter. He squinted his eyes and looked for a long time, but couldn't find his true fans, they were all fun people!
It’s not that fans don’t love him, but everyone thinks that his current group bully personality is very good, can be maintained, and is not likely to fail.
After all, ever since Li Mingxu became one of the top male stars, his competitors have been constantly throwing mud at him, saying that he is a big shot and has a bad temper. His fans have called for complaints from his haters a thousand times about these negative labels, but his team is powerless to do anything.
After appearing on this variety show, Li Mingxu's reputation has improved a lot. Variety shows are the best means of "whitewashing" oneself. Besides, how bad can the personality of a star be when he is pinned to the ground and played around by a three-and-a-half-year-old child?
Li Mingxu's fans say that he relies on himself, but in their hearts they have already admitted that it is indeed very cool to be the pendant of the Emperor Sui, and such good things are plentiful. Li Mingxu, you should also work harder and remember to show more concern for Sister Sui. Don't be outdone by Xu Shiling!
I heard that many projects are looking for Ling Sui to film, and Xu Shiling is willing to play the leading role for no pay. He can do this, and so can Xiao Li. The fans who frantically send private messages to the studio also think it’s okay to do it.
Male celebrities: …
Don't rush them. Is it because they don't like Ling Sui that they can't match her? She is going to go abroad to film in October, and I haven't heard of any domestic project that can sign her up yet. There are quite a few teams that use her as a cover to defraud others, and some people in the circle have already been fooled...
Paying money to film a movie sounds ridiculous, but if the co-actor is Ling Suisui, the mentality of taking advantage will overcome reason. In the face of greed, some people still can't help but think, what if?
Alas, looking back now, "Yao Tai Lu", which was not very popular at the time, was most likely their last chance to work with Ling Suisui. Many actors are slapping their thighs in frustration, wondering why they were so picky about their ranking in the first place. They thought they would leave it to next time, but it is too late to regret now.
People do not share the same joys and sorrows. After the domestic entertainment industry's attention was sucked away by "Hero Wuyou" and "Hero, Please Take the Challenge", Sui Si opened several bottles of champagne and ignored the fans who rushed to lick him. Mo Ziqing, who was in the limelight half a month ago, was now so anxious that he couldn't sleep.
Judging from the number of hot searches on Weibo alone, "She's the One" and "Take That Challenge, Hero" seem to be on par with each other. However, on Douzi Video, which has the highest daily active users and the largest number of users in the sinking market, the number of likes for hot comments on videos related to "Take That Challenge" has exceeded one million, so you can imagine how popular they are.
Moreover, Shining is the key project of Antenna this quarter, and countless resources have been invested in it; Please Take It is just a dish of dumplings made for vinegar, and the traffic is all dependent on Ling Suisui and the more popular students.
The two variety shows are not of the same level. The former has been surpassed by the latter in terms of popularity, and the revenue trend is also not as expected. Mo Ziqing's dream of becoming a god in one battle was shattered, and her subsequent series of plans would be affected.
What makes Antenna Video most angry is that "Hero, Please Take This" is also promoting new people, and Lin Yahan is a popular representative among them.
She is a professional student, beautiful, and a fresh face in the domestic entertainment industry. She is both the queen of submissions and an excellent student in the show, and I heard that she has signed a full agency contract with Harvest Media. Moreover, she has been on "Sui Sui With You" before and has a good relationship with Ling Suisui. All of these things add up, and she and Lin Jiajia, who has established the character of "Little Ling Suisui", are simply a perfect match.
Lin Jiajia has been exposed for a lot of negative information, and the film and television resources that were originally intended for her will become wavering. It is estimated that most of them will flow to Lin Yahan - Lin Jiajia can become a traffic star through variety shows, so why can't Lin Yahan do the same?
This means that Antenna Video’s previous efforts to create various public opinions and emphasize that the domestic entertainment industry needs a “newcomer king” may not be rewarded by Lin Jiajia, but instead have paved a way for Lin Yahan to rise to the top.
Even though Ant Financial is a large and powerful company, losing hundreds of millions of dollars would not be enough to attract the attention of senior management, but this kind of behavior of doing things that are beneficial to others still gave the platform a loud slap in the face.
During the break when Ling Sui was promoting her movie, she received an invitation that surprised her greatly. Mo Ziqing asked her to meet him.
ah? Shouldn't she be busy with the reality show right now? How could she have time to look for her?
Out of curiosity, Ling Suisui still made time for her for half an hour. No need to eat, just have a cup of coffee.
Compared to the high-spirited look when they first met, Mo Ziqing's face did not look too good. Although she wore delicate makeup, she couldn't hide the haggardness between her eyebrows.
Perhaps because she was familiar with Ling Suisui's style of doing things, she did not waste time with small talk, but went straight to the point as soon as they met, saying that she wanted to switch to Fengshou Media to help her train new people.
...If Ling Sui didn't have professional expression management skills, she would have spat out the coffee in her mouth by now.
she? Switch jobs and come to my side?
Because Mo Ziqing's tone was too natural, Ling Sui couldn't help but wonder, could it be that he had one more memory about "little Ling Sui" than she did? How can she be so embarrassed!
Well, maybe for those who have "business is business" engraved in their DNA, there is no psychological pressure at all to change camps.
Just as Ling Suisui guessed, Mo Ziqing really had no burden.
She actively promoted her abilities to Ling Suisui and emphasized that she only lost to her. And how many colleagues have lost to Ling Suisui? There are so many winners in the domestic entertainment industry that it’s hard to count them all, and she once won briefly, so it’s not too much to name her the MVP of the losing side.
Ability is one aspect. Mo Ziqing also reminded Ling Sui that her newly signed Lin Yahan joined the company the latest, but now she has the best film and television resources.
Faced with such a situation, only Zhu Yue, who focuses on comedy and does not have any competition for resources, would not care. But don’t the other three actresses from Harvest Media have any thoughts in their minds?
Ling Suisui stirred her coffee. To be honest, she didn't expect things to turn out like this.
As early as the recording of "Sui Sui With You", Ling Suisui had considered signing Lin Yahan, but out of a sense of responsibility for both parties, it was not until the recording of "Hero, Please Take the Challenge" that they officially signed the contract.
The company's plan for Lin Yahan was to proceed steadily and give priority to her studies, but the show's huge success and Lin Yahan's fan base were beyond expectations. They couldn't stop her from moving forward.
"So you need me." This is what Mo Ziqing said, "They are just three actresses. I can make them famous and bring you more profits. I can also eliminate the internal conflicts that may exist in the company.
At the same time, she also mentioned that she could bring her own resources when switching jobs, giving Zhao Xianning and others more options in film, television, and business.
Ling Sui was stunned at first, then reacted after a moment.
If Mo Ziqing's connections within Antenna Video were still useful, she wouldn't be in a hurry to change jobs. "She's a Raid" will definitely continue to be recorded, but she will inevitably have to bear the consequences of not getting the expected revenue and not delivering the promises she made to the platform.
Moreover, even before going to Hong Kong, she was only active in the variety show field when working in the domestic entertainment industry. Where did she get the film and television and business resources?
Eliminating other options, there is only one answer, that is, she is contacting those popular contestants of Shining. As the chief producer of the program, she also has the resources of Dao Shou.
Ling Sui was speechless, she didn't even know how to respond.
She asked Mo Ziqing: "...If you do this, what will happen to those girls?"
With the emergence of reality shows of the same type, it is difficult for "She Shine" to maintain its long-tail popularity. Although these popular contestants are luckier than those who have not made it, this luck is very short-lived. They must seize the opportunities in front of them to gain a foothold in the domestic entertainment industry.
Now, Mo Ziqing, who had lifted them up and presented them to the audience, was about to snatch away this rare opportunity.
Mo Ziqing was silent for a moment, then she smiled bitterly and said, "I know I'm not a good person, but I'm not so bad that I'm out of the average moral level of my peers, am I?"
"Teacher Ling, you have been a top star for so many years, and you are used to having all the good resources around you, so you have this kindness to think about others. Don't you know how fierce the competition is halfway up the mountain? Even if I don't take them away, will these resources definitely fall to them? Don't other companies have actresses?"
Ling Suisui shook her head. She admitted that what Mo Ziqing said was not completely unreasonable, but that did not mean she approved of such behavior.
How could she not understand? It was precisely because she understood it so well that she declined all the olive branches from big companies when she was a newcomer and insisted on starting her own business.
She didn't want to be an abandoned pawn, nor did she want others to have to go through that because of her. She certainly cannot control all the companies in the domestic entertainment industry, but at least she can restrain herself and have a clear conscience.
"I won't cooperate with you." She made her position clear. "Maybe you can find a better job in another company, but it won't be Harvest Media."
Mo Ziqing didn't understand: "Why? I think that Mr. Ling is the person who can achieve today's success and status, and he is not the kind of person who acts on impulse. You should understand that my business methods are only for the matter, not the person."
“That’s right.”
Ling Suisui simply told her frankly: "I am only responsible for researching how to act well, and at most give suggestions on the script and the team. I basically do not interfere in the company's operations."
"Objectively speaking, I recognize your ability, but you don't match the style of our company. I can't imagine how much more work my partners will have to do if I recruit you. Harvest Media is not a big company, and there are no factions within it. Maybe there will inevitably be such a day in the future, but I don't want to press the accelerator myself."
To Ling Suisui, Mo Ziqing was a sharp sword that could cut him, literally killing one thousand enemies but injuring eight hundred of his own.
Even though "She Started Well" started strong but ended badly, the trend of actor auditions is unstoppable. Although the production of the linked short dramas is crude, this model will be imitated and followed by others, accelerating the process of short dramas squeezing out the long drama market.
This is how Mo Ziqing does things. She only cares about the present and her own interests. As for the consequences? Once you make money, you don’t care about the consequences. Just shoot once and move to another place.
She might have missed the opportunity to recruit her for her own benefit, but Ling Suisui found it hard to believe that she would consider the company and the newcomer.
"Even from a business perspective, your value is not so great that it would cause a rift between me and Antenna Video."
Although Mo Ziqing didn't say it, Ling Suisui must have thought of this.
After making sure that he could not get the answer he wanted from Ling Suisui, Mo Ziqing got up and left.
Ling Suisui watched her figure gradually get smaller and disappear, then sat there for a while.
She was not sure where Mo Ziqing's life would go after she walked out of this door. Maybe it's a comeback with great success, or maybe it's in disgrace and a lonely exit.
Ling Suisui suddenly asked the system: [Is there a character called Mo Ziqing in the original book's plot? 】
The host suddenly asked a question, and the system was stunned.
The system initially answered no, even though the original text was an open world, the name was not found.
[This seems to be the first time the host has asked such a question. 】
Ling Suisui hummed. She had actually deliberately forgotten that this was a world set in a book and she was the "heroine".
[Don't worry, this is the last time.] 】
