Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 39 Arrangement
At noon, the sun is high in the sky, and if you don't stay in the shade, you will feel hot.

After taking Zhao Lusi to the cafeteria for a quick meal and learning about her current situation, Lin Li sent her to a taxi. They parted ways amid her constant thanks, and he took another car to go to the company.

He had a good impression of Zhao Lusi, and since he knew she would become popular in the future, he didn't mind making a good acquaintance with her.

This time, letting her take advantage of his popularity and giving her an insignificant supporting role can be considered an investment.

In the car, Lin Li held his forehead helplessly while looking at the message on his phone.

Dudu: "What's up with that girl you were walking with in school?"

Oda: "Brother Ali (Death Smile)"

There was no other way, Lin Li had to explain the situation to them. After all, it was really nothing and he had a clear conscience.

Dudu was fine. After listening to what happened, he confirmed that nothing was wrong between the two and said that it was okay now that he knew.

Oda would imply to him from time to time that he had no resistance to girls who took the initiative.

Lin Li thought, if I could resist, how could I let you succeed? However, he only thought about this and didn't dare to say it out loud, otherwise Xiao Tian would explode with him.

When I opened the trending search, I found that "Lin Li and the mysterious beauty visited the National People's Congress" was firmly in third place. When I opened the comment section, it was even more lively.

"Is NanDa talking about campus romance?"

"Can you please stop being distracted, Nan Da? Tell us more about the movie you talked about yesterday."

"Don't believe in rumors or spread them. If you're really in love, you won't be so open about it."

"Well, as a student of Renmin University, let me explain that the two of them maintained an appropriate social distance throughout the entire process, so it's probably not that kind of relationship."

"So, who is this woman?"

……

Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Li felt more and more that something was not right. He was a writer and a director, so why did netizens treat him like an idol?
Although it is true that I am handsome, it should be normal for me to fall in love, right? Is it my fault that I am handsome?

Before he could even sit down in the office, Chen Chao and Xu Fei pushed the door open and came in. He had no choice but to cheer up and discuss business with them.

After greeting, Xu Fei was delighted and spoke first: "It's like this, Mr. Lin. Penguin has already transferred the first batch of revenue to us this morning. One hundred and seventy million. Our return rate for this drama is too high. It also made us famous in the industry. We can say that we have both fame and fortune."

As a career-oriented person, his purpose of returning to China is to prove himself in this blue ocean of China.

Now that his first project has been so successful, he has become more determined to realize his self-worth in Nanxun Culture.

Chen Chao had known about this before he came, but he couldn't help but interrupt: "This is too profitable. This is just the first round of broadcasts. There will be continuous income in the future. No wonder everyone wants to get involved in the entertainment industry. This is too crazy."

Lin Li leaned back on the sofa and said calmly: "You are wrong. There are many factors that make Keai successful, and it won't make money for long. Now that online dramas are just emerging, the competition is not fierce. In addition, I attracted a lot of public attention when I revealed my identity in the early stage. It is a combination of many factors that made this drama get such good data. Later, as various companies entered the online drama market, you will understand."

He remembered very clearly that several early online dramas had reaped considerable returns.

Among them, Penguin will also release another drama "The Eternal Love" this year, which has an investment of 54 million yuan, earned more than billion yuan, and received billion views on Penguin Video.

But in fact, this drama can be described as shoddy from the plot to the production. It just happened to be released when online dramas became popular, so it can be said that this drama seized the opportunity, and the changes in the film and television market situation have earned it a good reputation.

Xu Fei nodded in agreement: "I think what Mr. Lin said is very right. With the entry of various companies, the online drama market will become more and more standardized, and the production investment and quality will become higher and higher. However, the pie is so small. If there are too many high-quality works, the audience will be diverted. Therefore, even if the investment is very high and the production is very sophisticated, it will be difficult to get the same return rate as us."

Chen Chao looked around at the two of them and spread his hands: "What's the big deal? The early bird catches the worm. Now that we entered the market early, the money should be ours. As for how the market will be in the future, that's a matter for the future. At least we succeeded this time, so we can have more confidence to invest in the next project later."

Lin Li glanced at the two of them with appreciation. Xu Fei had a high sense of the market and understood things immediately.

Chen Chao has also made obvious progress and has clearer ideas. It seems that this NPC was not bought.

After thinking for a while, Lin Li began to plan for the next action. He raised his hand and raised two fingers: "Next, two things. First, I will shoot a movie called Sadness in the summer vacation. Before shooting starts, I hope that Mr. Xu can build a complete crew for me and arrange the screening and interview of actors. Second, we can't miss this wave of blue ocean of online dramas. While the return rate is high now, we must continue to work hard on it. I will provide the script, and Mr. Chen, you must find a suitable director for me within a month to shoot this drama for us. Most importantly, I hope this director can be absorbed by our Nanxun Culture."

These two things were also a test for the two of them from Lin Li, but Xu Fei was not too worried. Chen Chao was not troublesome either, as he had several candidates in mind, including Wen Mu, who he had worked with before.

But he still wanted to see how capable Chen Chao would be if he were asked to do this.

"I understand, Mr. Lin. Leave it to me."

"Don't worry, I think I can do it for you."

The two of them said yes, full of confidence. The success of the play gave them a certain confidence and made them full of energy for the future.

Besides, with Lin Li around, they have no worries at all.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Xu Fei suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Mr. Lin, there is something else I would like to ask for your opinion on?"

Lin Li was curious: "What's the matter?"

Xu Fei explained the situation: "The organizers of the Shanghai Magnolia Awards have sent an invitation, hoping that you can be the guest presenter for this year's Newcomer Award winner. I have something to say. I think we are a new company in the industry, and we should actively participate in activities like this. Besides, Mr. Lin, you are going as the guest presenter, so it is not a disgrace to your status."

Lin Li thought it made sense and nodded: "No problem, please reply to them and I agree. When is the time?"

"June 16th."

"Okay, I know."

"Then Mr. Lin, are you okay? I'll go get busy first?"

"Go."

After finishing the business, Xu Fei stood up and said goodbye. He was full of energy now, and he had to cooperate with Penguin to do the live broadcast of the celebration party, so he was very busy recently.

Seeing Xu Fei go out, Chen Chao also took off his disguise, moved next to Lin Li, looked at him with a sly look and said nothing.

Lin Li knew that he was not holding back his fart, so he rolled his eyes and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Chen Chao raised his eyebrows: "What happened at school this morning?"

Lin Li knew he was going to say this and glanced at him: "I'm just a little actor who wants to make some progress."

"Look at you, you didn't refuse?"

"Why would you reject her? Isn't it good that she is ambitious?"

"Aren't Xiaotian and Chen Duling enough for you to keep busy now?"

"What are you talking about? We are all friends."

"A friend who you fucked with?"

"Yes, a pure sex relationship."

"6!"

After chatting for a while, Chen Chao got down to business: "I have arranged for your assistant, driver and car. Your assistant is waiting outside your office now. The driver and car are downstairs. You can check them out later. If you have any questions, tell me."

Lin Li nodded, acknowledging Chen Chao's efficiency. He had asked him for help a week ago, and he had completed it so quickly.

"Then go out and ask her to come in."

"Ok, talk to her yourself."

Chen Chao got up and went out. After a while, there was a knock on the door. Lin Li said, "Come in." Following the sound of high heels clicking, a capable figure walked into the office swiftly.
