Chapter 245
A talent show that changes the content of the competition from singing and dancing to acting?
After the studio directly sent a six-month leave request, fans and passers-by knew that Ling Sui was on vacation.
At the age of 27, it is the rising period of her career in the domestic entertainment industry. The 24-year-old fan, who is an average career fan, originally wanted to urge her on, but thinking about her current achievements, she is not so anxious.
No matter how much the domestic entertainment industry makes a small table to count the number of days people pick their feet, it can never be pulled up to Ling Suisui. If she wants to take a break, she really does. It's not like she's trying to save face by saying she doesn't have the film and television resources. Moreover, if someone really pulled her back to film a movie, her colleagues would be horrified.
Although Sui Si didn't urge her to join the group, she still pushed her very hard on the business. Even if you have a frog on your phone, you would know how to send a postcard. Ling Sui is on vacation for half a year. If he shoots two vlogs every month, it’s not too much to post an 18-square-grid photo once a week, right?
——So, when Ling Suisui entered the Bay Villa Suite of the Rosewood Hotel, he was holding a GoPro in his hand and pointing it at the Victoria Harbour outside the floor-to-ceiling glass wall.
The Bay Villa is a hidden room type of the Rosewood Hotel. It is located on the 57th floor of the hotel and requires a private elevator to reach. The villa has five suites and two outdoor private swimming pools, making it perfect for Ling Suisui to bring his team members on vacation.
By the way, I'll attend the Academy Awards ceremony.
She will stay here for nearly half a month, and the price will definitely not be cheap, but Shengshi Film Company will pay for her, and the villa was also recommended and booked by them.
Ling Suisui gladly accepted Shengshi's kindness. If she comes to Hong Kong, the share price of Shengshi will probably go up. The influence of top superstars is so terrifying. In such a comparison, the room rates that Shengshi and other companies are rushing to pay are really not worth mentioning.
"It really refreshed my understanding of top stars," said Zhang Wen, who was traveling with her. "When Chi Jia was at his most popular, he didn't have this kind of treatment that the big guys were praising him for."
Ling Sui shrugged. Among the many sub-segments of celebrities in the entertainment industry, idols are the most commercialized profession and the most susceptible to capital manipulation. But now when people mention Chi Jia, they probably think of him as a singer.
Coincidentally, he will also come to Hong Kong this month, and his personal tour will start here. Ling Suisui received a few VIP tickets and decided to bring his team to join in the fun.
This time she came to Hong Kong, apart from attending the Academy Awards event, she basically just had fun. Zhuo Siyu had made a travel guide in advance, and Xu Shiling also enthusiastically recommended several good places to eat, drink and have fun that only locals knew about, and said that he would treat them all, giving him a chance to play the role of host.
Ling Suisui thanked him for his kindness but declined his offer to treat him.
After all, "Only the Moon Passes By" broke the box office record for Chinese-language films in Hong Kong last year and was a true hit. When it comes to supporting couples, Hong Kong netizens are not inferior to those in mainland China, and the paparazzi here are more terrifying than those in mainland China.
She came here for a relaxing vacation, not to provide material for Hong Kong media.
However, when Ling Sui wants to find peace and quiet, many problems will find her.
When she was eating in a restaurant, there were always several men passing by her table frequently. Maybe they think their movements are natural, but in the eyes of professional actor Ling Suisui, they are so deliberate that it's almost as if the target is written out and pasted on the top of their heads.
Especially the waiter who poured wine for them, he looked like a novice among novices. Before the other party spilled red wine on her clothes, Ling Suisui urgently stopped the farce.
——Even if the outfit she was wearing was given by LV and she didn’t have to spend her own money on it, she can’t waste it like this! How strange, could it be that she suddenly traveled to some world of domineering CEO literature?
The employees she brought this time are all core members of the team and will definitely not sell her information. The source of the information leak is either Shengshi Company or Rosewood Hotel.
The latter has received her complaint and is currently conducting an internal investigation. After Ling Suisui hinted at Shengshi Company, the executives apologized to her and said they would investigate the employees who had access to the relevant information.
Zhuo Siyu felt a little ashamed: "I didn't keep the confidentiality arrangements strict enough... I thought it wouldn't matter if we weren't in the mainland."
Who would have thought that she is so popular in Hong Kong!
"It has nothing to do with you. He's probably not a fan, and he doesn't look like a sasaeng either."
Ling Suisui shook his head: "If I have to say... I feel like they want to hook up with a rich woman."
With her current financial resources, there is absolutely no problem for her to call herself that. Moreover, she has all her own money and does not rely on her husband or father for support. You don't have to worry about offending anyone if you are with her. No matter how you look at it, she is the perfect target.
Well... based on Ling Sui's experience in the entertainment industry, these men look very ordinary, but if they were placed in a crowd, they would still be considered quite good-looking.
You know, men with average looks will have the illusion that they are very handsome. In such an environment, it is not surprising that anyone with slightly better conditions would think that he can seduce Ling Suisui with his beauty (? ).
It’s not that there are no such men in the mainland, it’s just that she was either on the crew or staying at home before, and didn’t create any opportunities for others to meet her by chance.
Zhuo Siyu understood what was said. Influenced by previous Hong Kong film and television works, she almost imagined dozens of episodes of business wars, gangs, etc., but in the end it was just a few gold diggers.
Her eyes widened. "Shengshi is a big company, and Rosewood is such a high-end hotel...will there be a problem of information leakage?"
"Of course there is." Ling Suisui continued to cut the steak without caring. "Don't be fooled by the high-end appearance. The world may be a huge makeshift team. To what extent do you think information should be kept confidential? Lock it in a safe cabinet on the 18th floor, and there is infrared in the room?"
Well, that’s not the case…
Zhuo Siyu also lowered her head to finish her dinner. When they were discussing what time to get up tomorrow to go to Dilande Park and what souvenirs and peripherals to buy, someone else appeared near their table.
This time it was not a man who came back, but a woman in a casual suit.
Even if the gender was changed, Ling Suisui still had no interest...but the other party brought her a gift, and it was an out-of-print building block that had been discontinued. This is the style that Ling Suisui particularly wants, but she can’t get it no matter how much money she pays in the seafood market.
Okay, Ling Suisui invited the other party to sit down.
Mainly because she felt that this lady knew her to such an extent that even if she refused now, there was a high probability that they would meet again in the future...so her private information was really a big sieve?
While she was thinking about how to eliminate this hidden danger as much as possible, the lady opposite had already introduced herself.
Her name is Mo Ziqing, a native of Hong Kong. She previously worked at Antenna Video, then moved back to Hong Kong and is currently a variety show producer.
This surprised Ling Suisui a little. She just thought she was a film and television practitioner and was wondering what project to recommend to her.
Well... although she guessed the beginning wrong, the process was indeed like this. However, what she was talking about was a variety show, and a talent show that is no longer allowed in mainland China.
Ling Suisui also knew that filming and broadcasting in Hong Kong did not require radio and television review, but she still didn't understand the significance of Mo Ziqing looking for her.
"I'm not a variety show producer." She spread her hands, "Fengshou Media's business has not yet expanded into this field. Suisuiyouyou is the main investor and controller of Fruit TV."
Mo Ziqing: "I'm not talking about the singing and dancing talent shows. We're applying this competition system, but the competition and assessment content is changed to a competition of acting skills. The 101 system requires the selection of 11 members to form a group. We don't need that many, but we can divide the rankings of film and television works according to the rankings."
Ling Suisui blinked and digested what she said.
She could understand every word the other person was speaking in Cantonese, but why did it become so strange when they were put together?
"I have a lot of questions," she said. "First of all, the compatibility between the actor and the role - let's not consider whether the appearance conditions are suitable for the face, and whether they can handle the style of the role. Gender alone is very troublesome. Are you planning to hold a mixed talent show, or shoot an all-female or all-male work?"
If the roles are decided before auditions are held, this model is reasonable. But from what Mo Ziqing said, what she wants to do is a talent show. Even if the content of the competition is changed from singing and dancing to performance, under this kind of krypton gold voting mechanism, the people selected are still idols, not actors.
Moreover, is it really impossible for a situation where a contestant has no talent at all but fans are willing to spend money to get him/her into the group?
Whenever he thought of this kind of scenario, Ling Sui felt resistant to the idea. You know, most of the idol stars in domestic entertainment talent shows have ended up in the crew. Once this program comes out, it seems like a one-stop service will be in place, avoiding middlemen making a profit from the price difference.
Ling Suisui quickly shook his head in his heart and sent this terrible idea away from his mind.
She then asked, "Also, what is the film and television work that you are going to shoot after your debut, or as a reward for the finals? Do you have a complete script and a team? You came to me specifically, what role do you hope I can play in this show?"
If it's just about attracting investment, then Mo Ziqing has obviously chosen the wrong target. But with her ability to collect information, she would not make such a stupid mistake.
That must be because he wants to borrow her fame. Either be a mentor, or be the protagonist of this unknown film or TV work...
The former is difficult, as she basically does not appear on variety shows; the latter is even more difficult, as there are very few scripts that can impress her, not to mention that she has to bring along a group of actors who may not be suitable for the roles and whose professional abilities are also questionable.
So...why did Mo Ziqing come to see her on purpose?
