Chapter 265 Four Lords
In addition to some different team relationships that need to be readjusted and adapted to, Ren Limeng also has to face the troubles, or challenges, of becoming famous overnight.
The simplest difference is that she found that the paparazzi had their cameras pointed at her during the recording process, and she also saw a lot of Reuters footage of her own recording scene.
Fortunately, Ren Limeng has always required herself to perform consistently in front of and behind the camera, as she does in her usual hosting state. As long as she is at the recording site or in a place with people around, no matter how tired she is, Ren Limeng will try her best to maintain her expression. Even if the camera is dimly focused, she will not be photographed with a droopy face.
In addition to having more shots, Ren Limeng felt a sense of familiarity as she recorded more. The check-in at the fourth public performance was very similar to her interviews and reports on the agricultural channel, and the training in the practice room was like her repeated practice to standardize her on-camera performance outside the camera.
"Mountains and Seas", the Orange platform's ace variety show that made Ren Limeng feel like she was facing a formidable enemy at the beginning, seems to have finally been "demystified" after these days' experiences. This program is the key to her transformation, but in the final analysis, it can also be an ordinary entertainment channel work announcement, no different from the agricultural channel work she has hosted so many times before.
After realizing this, the recording of the program suddenly became faster. It was not until she stood on the star-studded "Shan Hai" fourth public finals live broadcast stage as the host that Ren Limeng finally felt some reality.
The show is about to end.
The recording of the "Mountains and Seas" finals is still in live broadcast mode, divided into two stages, the first half is the Thirty-Six Changes Cooperation Competition, and the second half is the site cultural performance competition that is essential for each public.
The Thirty-Six Transformations Cooperation Competition invited ten popular stars from the first season of "Thirty-Six Transformations of Mountains and Seas" to join the five teams of the second season, with two people in each team, to perform together. When the competition system was announced, it immediately received rave reviews from the audience.
For this collaborative performance and to prepare for the finals, the five teams of the second season of "Mountains and Seas" arrived at the finals recording location - Xiangcheng, the first recording location of the variety show "Twenty Changes of Mountains and Seas" on Thursday night.
As an internal employee of the Orange platform, Ren Limeng may know better than many guests that choosing Xiangcheng for the finals was a temporary move made by the program team out of helplessness.
The original venue was still in Jiangcheng, but even after a week, many places in Jingchu Province were still carrying out post-disaster work in an orderly manner. It was really inappropriate to hold the finals of the entertainment variety show in Jiangcheng, the capital of Jingchu Province. In addition, the recording of the variety show Chujian was originally in Xiangcheng, where the headquarters of the Orange platform is located. After careful consideration, the program crew finally chose to go back to Xiangcheng and returned to the venue that Ren Limeng was too familiar with.
As a host of the Orange platform, the variety show recording studio in Xiangcheng will also be responsible for recording other activities of the station. Hosting and participating in the "Shan Hai" finals here makes Ren Limeng feel more like it is her daily work.
To be honest, even though she is now considered "famous" in the eyes of everyone, Ren Limeng still doesn't feel any different. She still works hard, hosts every stage well, completes every task at work, and gives her all.
If there is any difference, it is that she now finds a relationship and finds it, which makes her tight work schedule even tighter, but she enjoys it and is even very happy about it.
In addition to the almost all-star guest lineup, the "Shan Hai" finals also invited many investors from the entertainment industry to participate. The show's grander momentum than the first season seems to hide the Orange platform's ambition to make a big push in the entertainment channel and seize the top spot among the four major platforms. Just like the hot searches on the night of the finals, which were almost dominated by the "Shan Hai" program, even pure bystanders had to marvel at the influence of Orange.
Of course, in addition to the attention, the term "Orange Platform Career Luck" has also quietly climbed to the top of the hot list. While other platforms are still trying to find ways to artificially sprinkle sugar, the Orange Platform has actually sprinkled out a real CP. This extraordinary career luck really has to make everyone laugh.
In the entertainment industry, there are many commercial CPs, but not many celebrity couples whose CPs become real. Ren Limeng and Shen Xingzhi are the only couple with such deep past entanglements who can openly announce the couple's relationship. Even many passers-by who don't care about variety shows can't help but fall in love with them after accidentally clicking on the hot searches these days.
Ren Limeng was very surprised. The latest data reported by the Guanxing Studio before the finals showed that the activity level of the "Ren Woxing" super topic of her and Shen Xingzhi's CP fans is now no less than that of Shen Xingzhi's individual super topic. Even if you look at the entire Weibo, the activity level of their CP super topic can remain in the top three every day.
Similarly, there were countless collaborations with Ren Limeng and Shen Xingzhi, such as couple endorsements. There were even many collaborations with Ren Limeng alone, which made her feel like she was a top female star at many moments.
After all, the Orange Platform had specially met with Ren Limeng before the finals, hoping to sign an additional agency contract with her. This special treatment was probably only experienced by An Ling and several other mainstay hosts who had been hosting important evening parties on the Orange Platform.
"My advice is to sign it."
When asking Shen Xingzhi, Ren Limeng got Shen Xingzhi's answer without hesitation, "Bring professional legal personnel to sign, the Orange platform has always been good to its own people."
"Am I not one of my own now?"
"You are an Orange employee now, not an Orange artist yet."
Chen Xingzhi made an incisive analysis. There are many differences between the provisions of the agency contract and the labor contract. The most important point is that only by signing the agency contract can the Orange platform safely provide Ren Limeng with hosting resources, including various business cooperation, variety show resources, etc., and the platform will not have to worry about Ren Limeng demolishing the bridge after crossing the river.
"The hosting resources are quite tempting. The station also promised me that after the show, they would host a special program just for me, allowing me to take other guests to various places to experience, interview and report, and I would be in charge of everything. To be honest, it's hard not to be tempted. But I don't want to participate in too many other activities, and... Brother Xingzhi, I still want to leave after my labor contract expires."
Unlike Shen Xingzhi's firm attitude, Ren Limeng was hesitant at this moment. The temptation of opening a separate program for the host was too great. Even An Ling, the top host of the Orange platform, had only had such resources in the past two years. Ren Limeng probably flipped through the plan book on the platform. The program she was given was not only not inferior to An Ling's program in terms of director, camera and other configurations, but it was even specially marked that the specific plan of the program would be implemented completely according to her ideas.
Ren Limeng wants to make her own voice heard in hosting, and this is undoubtedly a good opportunity. After so many years of hosting, Ren Limeng has experienced many large and small activities, but every time she was basically a staff member who was given the task, and there has never been a shot for her. She cannot directly refuse such an opportunity.
However, she planned to leave Orange after her labor contract expired and join Shen Xingzhi's own studio. Even before the expiration, if Shen Xingzhi needed her, she wanted to help him with all her strength. If she signed an agency contract with Orange, she was afraid that she would not be free and would be restricted in many issues.
"Then let's talk to Orange, Mengmeng. Things are different now. You have a lot of bargaining power with Orange."
Regardless of Ren Limeng's current fame and popularity, or the value behind Chen Xingzhi as Ren Limeng's boyfriend, the Orange platform will evaluate Ren Limeng with the highest artist treatment in the entertainment channel, and all Ren Limeng has to do is change her mindset.
She is no longer just a mere worker on the platform. She has the capital to negotiate and the confidence to stand up at any time.
Chen Xingzhi held Ren Limeng's hand, his low and powerful voice was firm and steady. Ren Limeng looked at Chen Xingzhi's deep eyes that only reflected her, and her heart suddenly settled. Realizing the implication of Chen Xingzhi's words, Ren Limeng suddenly smiled and gently held Chen Xingzhi's broad and warm hand back.
Indeed, after going through so much during this period, she is still a host of the platform and is only willing to be a simple host, but in fact, besides being a host, she has also gained so much. She must face everything and continue to move forward firmly.
Until the Orange Platform finally compromised on many issues and Ren Limeng signed the supplementary agency contract with the Orange Platform, Ren Limeng had never thought that this matter would go so smoothly and would invisibly have such a big impact on the final outcome of the "Shan Hai" program.
"...Based on the combined scores from both matches, let us congratulate Team Chen He, ranked first, for becoming the champions of this season's 'Twenty Changes of Mountains and Seas'!"
The hosts of the final competition are still Ren Limeng and An Ling. In addition, there are two ace male hosts from the Orange platform. Male host Wu Yue also became the only host of the final announcement of the final results.
In her ears was the voice of Wu Yue congratulating Team Chen He with a smile on her face. Ren Limeng had an impeccable business smile on her face. She couldn't help but applaud with everyone else and sincerely wished Team Chen He well.
At this moment, she was indeed happy, but she also felt a little regretful in her heart because she did not get what she wished and achieved her goal of becoming the championship team when she first appeared on the show.
At the end of the third public performance, Ren Limeng had already guessed the result. She also tried to confirm it with An Ling in private. Regarding the final championship team of "Shan Hai" and the individual love value champion, Ren Limeng guessed that it would be Chen He's team and Shen Xingzhi. An Ling smiled meaningfully at that time, and Ren Limeng understood that An Ling's smile was a tacit agreement.
But during these days of the fourth public performance, Ren Limeng still tried her best, and at least she felt that she had no regrets.
The first half of the fourth public performance was a collaboration show between the two seasons. The two star guests who joined Ren Limeng's team were very cooperative and young enough. They and Ren Limeng's team completed an elaborate performance of singing and dancing. The hearty performance won them the second place in the team ranking in the first half.
