Chapter 156
The second half of this chapter is forum-based
Throughout November, Ling Sui spent most of his time rushing through his schedule.
She has been shooting magazines and commercials these days, as well as giving various interviews. She has been working more than twelve hours a day for five consecutive days, not counting the time spent in traffic.
Fortunately, when Ling Sui's consciousness entered the system study room, her body automatically fell into a deep sleep. If it weren't for this cheating function, she would have collapsed from exhaustion by now.
Despite this, she still has to rush to the Feitian Awards ceremony and walk the red carpet tonight.
Tian Lan, who was sitting in the front, turned her head worriedly: "Sui Sui, are you still okay today?"
"I can do it." Ling Suisui, who was wearing a steam eye mask, replied, "I'm fine, don't worry."
She was still in the mood to joke: "Although the probability of winning the Best Actress Award is not high, let me think about what to say in my speech first."
After arriving at the airport, her business colleague Tian Lan can get off work and take another flight home. Qi Xiaoqing also took a taxi back to the hotel. They were replaced by executive agent Zhang Wen, former assistant and current artist publicity officer Kang Le, and He Lei who was carrying a camera.
Ling Suisui sighed: "You guys can switch shifts, I've been working the whole time."
Although leaving doesn't mean they can just rest, they still have to deal with online work, but it's really tiring to keep flying.
The industry elites who fly everywhere in movies and TV shows look glamorous, but only those who have experienced it personally can understand the physical and mental exhaustion of every takeoff and landing.
Qi Xiaoqing said with a chuckle: "Boss, you have to work hard to make money to pay us!"
Ling Suisui really wanted to call Tong Xiaoman, another boss of the team, but when he thought about the fact that Tong Xiaoman was currently negotiating with Netflix and Antenna, and had to recruit talents from various universities, and her job was no easier than hers, he felt much more balanced.
Instead of going through the airport gate, the group drove to the parking lot and went directly through the VIP channel.
This is Ling Sui's standard package every time he travels. Although it costs more money, compared with the possible airport congestion it may cause, anything that can be solved with money is not a big deal.
She originally wanted to lie down on the massage chair in the lounge to rest, but after calculating how long she had been sitting today, she decided to stand up.
If a female star is lax with herself, she is committing a crime.
The team members have long been accustomed to Ling Sui's ruthless style. After Zhang Wen reminded her of the precautions for today's work, she told her that a new publicity officer had joined the team, who is currently in charge of account operations, public opinion observation, and fan connection, and works online most of the time.
This new employee is an old acquaintance of hers - Zheng Wenjun, who was her assistant when she was filming "Ding Feng Bo".
Zhang Wen: "She found a company to work for before and also ran a marketing account. She praised your [Mushroom] a long time ago and said it was her account."
Ling Sui remembered that she had some impression of this number.
"I remember... we discussed this before. Is this one of the few marketing accounts that only publish red articles and rarely post provocative posts?"
"Yes." Zhang Wen nodded, "So her account didn't take off and has always been lukewarm."
...This is a very embarrassing reality. If you don't provoke conflicts or pull down others, there will be no KPI for controlling comments given by fans, and there will be no traffic revenue that can be cashed out through the sharing plan. No wonder Zheng Wenjun wanted to change his career.
Although she didn't make any money as a marketing account, it also indirectly confirmed her character. In addition, Zheng Wenjun has a certain understanding of the rules and user portraits of various platforms, so Zhang Wen feels more at ease asking her to be the publicity agent.
Ling Sui counted their ages and found that if Tong Xiaoman was not counted, there were already six employees in the team.
Given the team’s current workload, the number of people is barely enough. Tong Xiaoman also wants to continue expanding her recruitment in preparation for officially opening a company and recruiting new people in the future.
After the plane landed, Ling Suisui was first taken to the studio.
In the past, studios would take departure photos for artists in hotel rooms or in corridors, but in recent years, the entertainment industry has become more and more competitive, and if someone's photos lose out in a star-to-star competition, they may be torn apart by angry fans.
In this environment, Ling Suisui Studio can only keep up with the pace of internal circulation. However, Ling Suisui's look today does need to be treated with dignity.
She wore a specially customized Prada dress, a necklace and ring from Tiffany's, and Christian Louboutin high heels, truly becoming a walking brand display stand.
The person in charge of taking photos is He Lei. Since working in Ling Suisui Studio, her photography skills have improved rapidly under the strict supervision of Hua Fen.
In fact, He Lei is one of the few female celebrity photographers who receives so much criticism. Who made Ling Sui have such a good face? As long as his brain has not been soaked in formaldehyde, he will look good in any photo.
Ling Sui, a 24-year-old makeup artist, once said that the thing she used least was contouring. The director of Peach Blossom also said that there was no need to find special angles when photographing Ling Suisui.
In today's world where the domestic entertainment industry is always criticized for its declining aesthetic standards, if you want to see real beauties, you have to look at female artists who are professionally trained and carefully selected by big names.
In the studio, He Lei felt that the photos she was taking were not departure photos for business use, but hard photos that would soon appear on magazine covers. How come Ling Sui's expressiveness can go straight to the heart no matter how casually she strikes a pose?
No wonder, many luxury brands were willing to buy shares in her before she became famous. Now, in terms of the commercial value of female stars in the domestic entertainment industry, Ling Suisui has already reached the next level.
That is to say, Ling Suisui does not go to the airport and does not put on makeup in the hotel when filming, otherwise there would be more business opportunities looking for her.
Any "celebrity-style" items that appear in public, whether they are food, daily necessities, clothing or accessories, as long as the brand can be named, are basically advertisements. There is no such thing as tap water.
Even if there are no competing products at present, you have to consider the future. This will give A free advertising, and if A wants to take on business for similar product B in the future, it will be very difficult to negotiate price and treatment.
Luxury goods are an exception - some artists love to wear certain brands and then shamelessly market them through a wave of "wild spokespersons". If the data and passerby reviews are good, you can take them to the brand to seek cooperation.
With Ling Sui's status, there is certainly no need to do such things. As early as a few years ago, her luxury brand had already distinguished between ready-to-wear clothes and luggage, and with the addition of Guerlain and YSL, she had the four luxury brands in her hands.
At the latest before June next year, these brands should contact her to discuss the title upgrade. Tian Lan told her a few days ago that several luxury brands were asking about the expiration of her contracts.
At present, Ling Sui's dresses are mainly provided by Prada. After all, after signing the contract, Ling Sui can no longer wear ready-to-wear dresses from other brands in public, unless they are haute couture.
In the domestic entertainment industry where everyone has a ready-to-wear brand business, this is one of the reasons why many popular female stars have to get involved in high-end fashion.
Zhang Wen: "Sister Tong helped you negotiate a few high-end pieces, all of which are out-of-season styles. Save them for the December event."
On the one hand, it was because those activities had a bigger presence on the Internet and could provide the brand with better-looking data; on the other hand, Ling Sui felt that her chances of winning were not high, and it would be embarrassing to say that she wore haute couture only to be a runner-up.
Zhang Wen still held out hope: "What if?"
"… Feitian is a government award. This year, two of the nominated films competing with me for the Outstanding Actress award were funded by CCTV and produced by the Provincial Party Committee Propaganda Department. Even if I win the double yolk award, it won't be my turn."
If it was a realistic theme that could reflect hard work and positive energy, Ling Suisui felt that he could still fight for it. However, "Freedom House 2" is essentially a sitcom, and no one thought about giving it value when filming.
If you want to win the Feitian Award, the subject matter is very important.
Zhang Wen thought so too. In fact, she understood this principle, but she was just too much looking forward to Ling Sui winning the award.
Last year, Ling Suisui was nominated for Best Actress at the Golden Eagle Awards for her role in "Freedom House 1". This year, she was nominated for the second season at the Feitian Awards. Zhang Wen joked, "I think you will be nominated for the third season at the Magnolia Awards next year, so that will be complete."
"Don't tell me, it's really possible."
Ling Suisui agreed: "It seems that there is no precedent for an actor to be nominated twice for different works in TV drama awards. That means it's a choice between freedom and games."
"The game should win an award, right? Your acting in it is really good, and the audience really recognizes it."
The two recalled the film and television works of the past two years. The mainstream domestic entertainment awards value both the quality and influence of the works. There are not many excellent works that meet these two conditions. Moreover, in the Magnolia and Golden Eagle awards, the subject matter advantage is not so obvious.
"It's hard to say." Ling Suisui reminded Zhang Wen, "The judging panel has its own standards. It's too early to say these things now."
Zhang Wen made a motion of zipping her mouth, she wouldn't say anything nonsense.
She only added: "So far, not counting the mission films you guest-starred in, the probability of your first three roles being nominated for mainstream awards is 100%."
The reason why we emphasize mainstream is that Ling Sui has already won some smaller-scale and less well-known awards. For some of the awards, she didn't go to receive them in person, but asked her agent or executive agent to receive them on her behalf.
Therefore, Zhang Wen dared to imagine how her next work would perform during the award period. For Ling Sui, getting a mainstream nomination that many young talents in the domestic entertainment industry cannot reach is a piece of cake. The next step is to win the award.
Ling Sui just nodded after listening to him, took photos of two sets of clothes on the red carpet and backstage, and then went to the award ceremony.
As the protagonist of her own life, she knows better than anyone that these glories will eventually belong to her, it is only a matter of time.

[Title: A look at the status of the female stars who won the Feitian Awards, who can hold up to the camera? 】
[The best-looking one is 0, after all, she is young and has a full face of collagen]
[To be honest, this lighting is really hard to describe. All the female stars look like they have aged ten years]
[Feitian's usual level, just get used to it]
[Even with such deadly lighting, 0 is still beautiful. I have long said that she has the temperament of a big flower, and her bone structure is particularly amazing]
[In fact, her style is a bit like Tang Bing, no wonder Tang chose her to make a movie. SLS from the same crew seemed to be promoted by another big star, but I didn’t expect that 20 years later, our domestic entertainment industry is still a battlefield for big stars.
(Note: sls = Song Lingshan)
[I feel like 0's eyes are dull, like a piece of wood. Who is bragging that she is spiritual?]
[How about telling lies with open eyes in front of malicious screenshots? Do you think that if you take a few screenshots of your facial expressions, others won’t know what 0 looks like? 】
[When did my group start to care about Fei Tian? In previous years, this award has not been very popular, and not many of Tao’s acquaintances were shortlisted.]
[Maybe it’s because no ancient idol group has ever been shortlisted for Feitian (dog head)]
[Hold on a little, any disturbance of 0 is a stimulant for 0 black, and next I may say that Feitian is a fake award, don’t make you anxious]
[Hahahahahahahahaha what Golden Eagle, Flying Sky, Magnolia, what the mainstream three, none of those that have been nominated count! 】
[Coming from Weibo, I'm not saying that someone sent a raw picture to the bot, and then I didn't see what I wanted in the comments section, so I broke down and came here to pick a post. No way, no way]
[[Picture] The first comment "This is obviously very beautiful" has over a thousand likes. Is the money earned by the black 0 enough for the OP to treat his eyes? 】
[Too funny, 0 is going to release another red carpet beauty press release to outshine her predecessors. Her acting skills are not good enough and she can only use these tricks. May I ask how many years has this been since 0 took over as the Best Actress? 】
[Whoever issues the press release will be in obscurity for life, a fool writes a fool's letter, directs and acts in a one-stop drama, whose style is it to like to force the female to compete so much?]
[Go back to the sewer, you dirty thing. How dare you try to scam an actor with 20 billion views? Wait until your master can catch up with one tenth of him before you talk.]
[One tenth is 2 billion, which is a lot. Let’s set a small goal of 1% first, so as not to kill those flops who earn millions per episode.]
**
[Title: I just realized after seeing the building next door that the performance of 0 is already so strong? 】
【ah? Otherwise, what do you think? Traffic, representative works, awards, fashion value, business value, national popularity, passers-by, and even overseas popularity, can you pick out a shortcoming of 0? 】
[0 was very low-key before the game became a big hit. Everyone seems to have forgotten how many people were against her when Ding Feng Bo was broadcast. At that time, she went to act in a sitcom, and many people said that she was scared and that a self-employed person could not squeeze into the battlefield of traffic stars. As a result, this sister made a comeback and shocked everyone with one drama.]
[Now that I put it that way, I really am… worshipping the God of the Year]
[0 still suffers from the disadvantage of not having debuted for a long time and being young, and is always bundled with the same period girls for marketing, which simply lowers 0's level]
[The same period of actresses should be very afraid of winning 0 awards]
[No, no, no, they have long been unable to catch up with 0's performance, and are not qualified to compete with her for resources. Now the most feared is 8590 in the early 0s. She only needs a real female lead award to pry open the position of the 85 goalkeeper.
[It’s too exaggerated. We haven’t spent these years in vain]
[Those three comedies in 2009 were not filmed in vain. It’s almost the end of the year, and the three Liberty House movies are still in the top ten of the Auchi popularity list. The long tail of this show is enough for the leading actors to live on for a lifetime.]
[To put it bluntly, 85 is still enjoying itself in domestic entertainment, while 0’s influence has spread to the whole world. The difference between having works and not having works is really huge.]
[Indeed, Route 0 is really worth learning for young girls. First, Ding Feng Bo became famous, then there was the drama "Golden List" which was suitable for all ages, and the comedy "Freedom House" which stabilized her popularity. Then there was a game that became a big hit, and by the way, she was known as the "God of Acting". She is really smart in grasping both strength and traffic.]
[Are other young girls learning from her?] Does everyone have the fate of being a top-level zyk? 】
[They've started spreading rumors again. Ding Fengbo was the one who was asked to save the day because no one else was filming. Tang Bing said in person that she was the best among the freshmen in this year's class. And when Freedom House was filming the first part and the game was officially announced, there were all kinds of posts that criticized her. Do you want to dig them out to help you recall? 】
[0 When filming, it is usually done by people, please be aware]
[This made me think she won the Best Actress award, but isn’t she just watching others win the award? On the fancy rhetoric of the runner-up to save face]
[What a trendy word. It gives off a kind of beauty that makes one with a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan laugh at those with an annual income of 10 million yuan but cannot make it into the rich list. Whether or not you get the award is not something you need to consider. Your mission and that of your subordinates is to not make a fool of yourself.
[bdjw, is it because you don’t like it that your family can’t be the runner-up? 】
[It's so funny, 0 is already filming a period drama, why is he pretending to be a good actor? If you want traffic, just say it directly]
[Are you introducing yourself again?] I know you are drooling over the three million bookings for Peach Blossom, but the crew has only finished filming for less than a month, and they only released a wrap-up special. You will be so pissed off when Peach Blossom is aired, hehe.]
[Hot knowledge, #桃花炽炽# has the highest number of views on Douban among all the unaired costume dramas, and is several times ahead of the second place. Red is the fate of 0, if you don’t like it, just live on another planet]
[Either admit that there are many people living in the year of 20 or admit that the number of people on the 0-passer-by plate is so large. What should I do? Both options are painful for you. Why not choose both?]
