Chapter 734: The transformation of the Jade Lady Sect Leader
At this time, two young ladies dressed in their best arrived late. Among them, Miss Wang poked General Manager Feng on the shoulder of his suit and gestured to the seat next to her.
".I understand. I'll change it right away."
Looking at the seven or eight empty seats at the table, and then looking at the major shareholder next to him, Feng Jiming smiled knowingly and quickly moved three seats to the side.
The two young ladies are not to be trifled with.
"Sister Xian'er, young lady, why are you so late?"
Zhou Anan was slightly stunned when she saw the two young ladies, one in black and the other in white slim evening gowns, and then she smiled and poured freshly squeezed juice for them.
"Well, the road is a bit congested."
For this question, Wang Xiaoxiao naturally would not say that they spent too much time putting on makeup at home, so she used a more acceptable reason.
Anyway, they weren't late, and the show hadn't even started yet.
"It's almost the New Year, why is the traffic in Hangzhou still so bad?"
Qi Liang, the CEO of Mingliu Group, heard this and asked subconsciously, which attracted looks of contempt and disgust from the others at the table.
In this situation, CEO Qi also knew that he had said the wrong thing and immediately kept silent.
"An An, why don't you bring your girlfriend here?"
With a look of contempt at the CEO who told the "truth", Wang Xiaoxiao looked at both sides and asked curiously.
"I talked to her about it, and she said she didn't like the occasion, so she didn't come."
There was no falsehood in Zhou Anan's words.
When Zhou Anan was sending his girlfriend home, he did ask her, but her girlfriend politely declined.
As for the reason, Zhou Anan subconsciously did not delve into it.
“I see.”
After hearing what An Xiaodi said, Wang Xiaoxiao did not continue this topic, but started talking about today's program.
Because it was the first annual meeting of the two companies, there were rich prizes and naturally a large number of programs. Skits, singing and dancing were a must, as well as some miscellaneous performances such as crosstalk.
You should know that the first place winner of the program will receive a grand prize worth one hundred thousand yuan, and the top few winners will also receive generous rewards, and even the participation award is exciting.
Of course, to be fair, programs featuring celebrity artists are not included in the selection scope.
For this annual meeting, the two companies invested at least four million in prizes, plus the expenses for the banquet itself, the total investment was over five million.
“Dear leaders”
As several people chatted, time gradually came to the opening of the annual meeting. The two hosts of Huaxia TV and the two leading hosts of Jiangxi TV came on stage to start today's banquet.
This kind of grand ceremony alone is enough to illustrate the status of the two companies.
Zhou Anan, who was sitting at the main table, looked closely at the figures of the two female hosts, and subconsciously compared them with the two beautiful young ladies next to her. She found that the two young ladies were slightly better in terms of overall scores.
After all, in terms of spirit, the two young ladies are definitely stronger than those female hosts who are half of the people in the entertainment industry.
However, when Zhou Anan saw the female host of Hua Xia TV in a shiny white off-shoulder long dress, she recalled the brief life exchange they had last time and felt a little excited.
After the four hosts’ enthusiastic opening remarks, Blue Whale Entertainment’s first program, Four Beauties in Ancient Costumes, began.
Shi Shi, Tong Saiya, Liu Feifei, and Chen Yin, dressed in ancient costumes, took time back to the magnificent ancient customs as soon as they appeared on the stage, depicting a moving picture of ladies that made hundreds of men present stare in amazement.
The employees of both companies, who were already looking forward to the annual party program, have even greater expectations for the subsequent programs.
"No, no, no."
Looking at the stunning ancient costumes of the company's four female artists, General Manager Feng, who knew the mystery well, shook his head and muttered.
"Big Head, what can't be compared?"
Wang Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to him, heard General Manager Feng's mumbling and asked curiously.
"Nothing, I just feel that our company is missing a drama. If we pull these female artists into it, the winning rate will definitely not be low."
Under the intimidating gaze of a major shareholder, Feng Jiming answered the question very seriously.
"Yeah?"
Unexpectedly, the other party is still thinking about the development of the company. Wang Xiaoxiao is a little confused, but also a little ashamed of herself.
This may be the reason why she can only be a wage earner.
"Why is Liu Feifei here?"
Seeing that the topic was about to be ruined by General Manager Feng, Zhou Anan naturally changed the subject.
Let’s not talk about the other three beautiful artists who have talked about life, but Liu Feifei, the leader of the popular jade girls, is not under their Blue Whale Entertainment.
What's more, given her fame, attending the annual meetings of the two companies would at least be a solo performance. It is hard to imagine that she would perform with other female artists.
"Liu Feifei liked your script for Two Worlds very much, so she took the lead role in the play. She happened to hear about our company's annual meeting, so she took the initiative to sign up for this show. Relatively speaking, her age is more suitable than that of Li Zhen."
Speaking of this, Feng Jiming explained.
After all, Li Zhen was brought into the company by the major shareholder, and she also starred in the big science fiction film directed by Li Donglai. It was obvious how much the major shareholder valued the beautiful artist.
Logically speaking, given Liu Feifei's current popularity in the television industry, she would rarely appear in TV dramas with general investment.
However, when their company sent out a casting notice, Liu Feifei came to them on her own initiative, which has to be said to have enhanced the reputation of their Blue Whale Entertainment.
Because the program had already been scheduled, Li Zhen, one of the four beauties who were originally scheduled to perform, was replaced, making the four female artists closer in age, which also took the program to a higher level.
"Is Liu Feifei still acting in TV series?"
As a half fan of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", Wang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel a little excited when she heard that Liu Feifei was willing to star in the company's TV series.
"Maybe there was a problem with the movie she starred in in North America, otherwise, the other party would not have contacted us. After all, our company has planned several movies this year, and the other party might have taken a fancy to one of them."
Regarding this point, Feng Jiming, who has been in the entertainment industry for several years, is well aware of the other party's purpose.
Liu Feifei didn't say anything, but he was happy that the company's crew had another popular female artist as an alternative.
However, it was hard for Feng Jiming to imagine that the box office of a movie starring two of the biggest stars in the film industry would be so bad. Huang's Pictures had spent a lot on publicity.
"She probably thought that the movie wouldn't do well at the box office. If it didn't do well at the box office or get good reviews, her transformation would be a failure."
Zhou Anan thought of the mystery and said something meaningful.
He was of course aware of the blockbuster in which Liu Feifei had starred, which was his first intimate contact with the screen. He was even more aware that the movie had not done well at the domestic box office and had a mixed reputation in North America.
Taking into account the pay of the two movie and television superstars, Huang's Pictures did not make much profit from this movie, and the added fame to the heroine Liu Feifei was also not significant.
In China, Liu Feifei’s popularity in the television circle is unmatched among female artists, which also caused this transformational work, which did not lose money at the global box office, to attract a lot of criticism.
The title of Jade Maiden leader is covered with a lot of dust.
It seems that after this movie, Liu Feifei's film resources are not very good. The only one or two that did well at the box office did not leave a deep impression on the audience.
Many years later, that generation of beautiful female stars has almost become a memory of the post-80s and post-90s generations.
The ups and downs of the entertainment industry are so realistic.
"Yes, it's not a good thing to be praised too much in the television industry."
Feng Jiming deeply agrees with the major shareholder's statement.
It is not easy for artists from the television industry to transition to the big screen, especially for extremely popular stars like Liu Feifei.
Even the leading actress Liu Feifei was not optimistic about the box office of that movie, which shows that the script was really not that good. It seems that Huang's Pictures, the leading company, is not doing well either.
No wonder the other party would lower his status and star in a TV series of the nature of a "web drama".
Perhaps the other party also wants to calm down, consolidate his popularity, and choose good movie resources again.
After a brilliant opening show, it was time for the exciting prize drawing session. The prizes for the first round were three brand-name bags worth tens of thousands of dollars, which immediately aroused the excitement of all the employees.
It goes without saying that women covet brand-name bags.
Those single or partnered men are also eagerly looking forward to it. Winning the prize will definitely be an unparalleled weapon to pursue a girlfriend or please his wife.
"An An, do you think it's possible for me to win the prize?"
Miss Wang next to Zhou Anan took out her number tag and asked eagerly.
Although she just received a seven-figure bonus today, she was still very interested in the three bags on the stage worth tens of thousands of dollars.
As a woman, who would complain about having too many bags?
"Probably, no."
Zhou Anan, who knew that there was no inside story in the lottery, looked at the expectant eyes of hundreds of people present and felt that Miss Wang's chance of winning was a bit low.
But thinking of Miss Wang's "luck" in certain areas, Zhou Anan became a little uncertain again.
"If your number plate wins, you have to give it to me."
After hearing what An Xiaodi said, Wang Xiaoxiao, who was not very confident, pouted and doubled her chances of winning.
