Debuted right after graduating from high school

Fan Wumian suddenly came to inspect the work, which made everyone lose their focus on developing the script.

Each of them was restless and eager to stand out and achieve success, trying their best to leave even the slightest impression on his mind.

The group of people from Benshan Media gathered together, and their image and temperament were so down-to-earth that they looked just like unemployed people squatting by a cornfield chatting.

Song Xiaobao said enviously:

"Boss Fan's demeanor and his entourage are incredibly impressive! I saw the news this morning that he's going to spend hundreds of millions of yuan of his own money to manage the desert in Neimenggu, and Shenzhen is even going to reward him with a piece of land to build a big house to retain talent."

Xiao Shenyang nodded and said:

"I saw it too. Shenzhen is acting very unfairly. President Fan offered to help transform 10 acres of desert. Shenzhen is such a big place, what's wrong with giving him a little more land? They actually made President Fan do the land reclamation himself. How can they retain talent by doing things like this? They don't even know how to give gifts. He's worth hundreds of billions. If he lived in Shenzhen, he would pay a lot of taxes every year. They should just give him a few hills."

Wang Xiaoli laughed upon hearing this:

"What, are you really going to let President Fan build a mountain stronghold and become a mountain king?"

Xiao Shenyang nodded and continued the conversation:

"Brother Li, you don't understand. Look at the ancient castles in Europe, many of them are built on mountains. Have you bought Jay Chou's new album? The Mont Saint-Michel Castle in France, the atmosphere and design are absolutely amazing. I must visit it when I make money."

Clearly, he's another unlucky guy who got fooled by a "photoshopped" picture.

The scenery at Mont Saint-Michel is indeed beautiful, but it doesn't quite match the stunning photos taken by photographers; its appeal lies in its unique character.

Song Xiaobao had no idea about Mont Saint-Michel Castle, and only remarked:

"Now, who doesn't know that President Fan has a courtyard house in Beijing, a mansion in Hong Kong's Repulse Bay, and a luxury house in Shanghai? If Shenzhen wants to keep him, it will probably have to spend a lot of money. His big villa is just like our small town storefronts; it's nothing to us."

"President Fan is our boss now. What do you think about treating him to dinner tonight so we can have a chat? Maybe he'll agree, out of respect for our mentor. Whether he agrees or not is one thing, whether we express our gratitude is another."

"Does anyone know any good restaurants nearby? Let's find a fellow villager and order some hearty dishes like chicken stew with mushrooms or braised goose in an iron pot. We'll get them all; it's all about the local specialties."

It seems that using the Shenzhen government as a cover has been very effective. It would be easy to be criticized for using connections to acquire land and build a private estate, but by using rewards for doing good deeds, it is much easier to avoid criticism.

Xiao Shenyang nodded repeatedly and said:

"Yeah, we should really do something about it. What if we go out for drinks with President Fan and snag a few acting opportunities? Wouldn't that make us rich?"

Wang Xiaoli also thought this was a good idea and offered her suggestion:
"Why don't we call our mentor first? It would be much easier if he could help us make the connection. Even if all of us brothers were together, we wouldn't have that much influence."

"."

the other side.

Shen Teng, who still maintains his handsome image, stood there swaying his hips and jokingly asked:

"You all say there are so many drama, stage play, and small theaters across the country, so why did Mr. Fan specifically choose our company and even pay to acquire it?"

"I didn't understand before, but now I do. If there's something that others don't have, but our company does, then it must be me. Just now, with so many people surrounding President Fan, I clearly noticed that President Fan's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on me several times."

"At that moment, we were only two or three meters apart. It was probably the closest I've ever been to wealth, power, prestige, and my dreams in my entire life."

Chang Yuan flashed his signature smile and began to speak:

“This is a good joke. Quickly grab your computer and write it down. I think we can use it. If we pay tribute to Mr. Fan on the show, we can use his influence to force the production team not to eliminate us.”

“You are just closer to wealth and dreams, while I touched them directly. When I saw President Fan appear, I hesitated for 0.1 seconds and then rushed over and successfully shook hands with him.”

"This hand has never been so glorious and honored since I was born. It's as if it indirectly touched hundreds of billions of Hong Kong dollars, enough to kill me dozens of times over."

Done.

Shen Teng said with a smile:
"Your baggage is also quite good, don't forget it."

"Why don't we just completely rewrite the script? It feels like working backward from these jokes to create the script is more reliable and easier to take a different approach. We've been trying our best to flatter President Fan, don't the director, producer, and executives at Tudou.com want to do the same?"

"If they can't find an opportunity, we'll give them one. That way, everyone's happy, and advancing will definitely be no problem. If they get eliminated in the first round, how can we face going back to the company?"

Artists who make a name for themselves are bound to have some skills; they are all well-versed in "emotional intelligence" and adept at seizing every precious opportunity to gain exposure.

Eccentric individuals like Stephen Chow only have the opportunity to be themselves freely, unafraid of not getting resources or being suppressed, after truly establishing themselves in the industry. On the other hand, some artists have low emotional intelligence and IQ, and their acting skills are questionable, yet they still thrive in the entertainment industry. This should raise questions about whether they have powerful backers or financial backers.

For example, some famous directors are rumored to have had affairs with other people from time to time. Once or twice, it may be baseless, but when many people make the accusations, it becomes worth pondering.

It's common for directors to have actresses knocking on their doors late at night on set. Some young actresses with mediocre acting skills keep getting good roles, making it hard not to suspect something else.

It can only be said that Fan Wumian would prioritize giving some top resources to his girlfriends, and the same goes for others in the entertainment industry, whose private lives are even more complicated than his.

Some young, handsome men or beautiful women can find ways to take shortcuts, but the "Annual Comedy Competition" seems much more straightforward.

Of the 40 contestants, not a single girl could be considered a beauty. Shen Teng was already considered a handsome guy among them, while Zhang Yunlei from Deyun Society was only 15 years old and looked particularly young and immature.

Because there is a lack of similar programs competing in the market, and given the talent of these guests, the show is likely to be a hit. Therefore, Fan Wumian spent a long time explaining the key points, hoping to sell the exclusive broadcasting rights of this variety show for a good price.

During the meeting, Fan Wumian received a call from Zhao Benshan, who asked some of his apprentices to treat him to a meal, but Fan politely declined.

Afterwards, he only instructed the program's scriptwriters to tailor a script called "Northeast F4" for Song Xiaobao, Xiao Shenyang, and others, and preferably to take a set of Hong Kong-style photos and print them on short-sleeved shirts in collaboration with Fei Le.

The show's ratings are only one aspect. From Fan Wumian's perspective, the key is to take the opportunity to promote a group of artists under his management so as to earn more profits. If other comedians stand out, he doesn't mind allocating some resources to promote newcomers.

While other video websites struggle to even acquire high-quality content, Tudou.com has already taken the lead in creating its own dramas and variety shows.

The company also has a spy drama starring Hu Ge and Gao Yuanyuan, with guest appearances by Ying Tian and Yui Aragaki, called "Hidden and Great", which is currently being filmed at a film and television base in Shanghai.

With nothing to do, Fan Wumian recalled the crazy days he spent with Gao Yuanyuan in Yanjing a while ago. He had forgotten the pain and went to visit the set to solidify the "wonderful memories".

Upon arriving at the film and television base where the crew was located, we learned that Brother Hu and Gao Yuanyuan had gone to Lin'an to film on location and would not be back until the day after tomorrow.

While the others were still filming other scenes, Fan Wumian couldn't just run away as soon as he appeared, so he patiently chatted with the producer and assistant director.

Yui Aragaki, who played the role of a wealthy island businessman's daughter, was so nervous in front of him that she kept making mistakes. Seeing this, Fan Wumian took the initiative to leave and visit other places.

He had just left when Ying Tian, ​​dressed in a cheongsam and wearing red high heels, chased after him, saying enthusiastically:
"Mr. Fan? Let me be your tour guide. The film crew has been shooting here for a week, so I'm quite familiar with the area."

Fan Wumian asked, "Isn't it your turn to act yet?"

Ying replied with a sweet smile:

"Yes, we'll be filming a dance scene tonight. I'll be pretending to be a classmate to get information from Ms. Yui Aragaki. There aren't any other plans for now."

Suddenly remembering something, Fan Wumian asked curiously:

"Boss Cen Zheng contacted me before, wanting to send me some gifts, but I declined. At the time, I was very curious why he asked me to arrange a role for another girl. Did your company sign a new talent?"

Ying Tian had nothing to hide from him about her sugar daddy, and said awkwardly:
"I broke up with him two months ago. He probably met someone he likes again. We just couldn't talk to each other and were often busy with our own things, so we naturally broke up."

To be honest, this matter is also related to Fan Wumian.

At the beginning of the year, Jin took the initiative to use a large amount of money to partner with others to speculate on stocks and drive up the stock prices of several companies. She also invested in a pharmaceutical research and development company, ambitiously seeking to go public.

Later, Fan Wumian's actions caused the stock market to crash prematurely. Many speculators were caught off guard and trapped, forced to sell at a loss and run away. The pharmaceutical company's listing plan fell through, and the major shareholder absconded with the money.

The sudden loss of tens of millions of RMB in cash has put her sugar daddy in a lot of trouble. He has no time to "raise fish" anymore. While collecting the funds, he also shut down the entertainment company that was set up specifically for Ying Tian, ​​leaving her to fend for herself.

Fan Wumian was unaware of these matters and was deeply surprised by their breakup, asking, "Then what are you going to do?"

Ying Tian had already emerged from the gloom, and sighed softly, saying:

"There's no other way but to finish my studies and complete this pre-arranged drama. I have no other plans after that. Senior, if I may ask, could I come and stay with you?"

After looking her up and down, Fan Wumian still didn't understand what she meant, and asked in a low voice, "What kind of refuge do you mean?"

Originally, Ying Tian only wanted to work under Fan Wumian, but after hearing his somewhat ambiguous words, she immediately thought of many things.

During her studies, she was often talked about behind her back, with people saying that she was a kept woman, a mistress, or being supported by a sugar daddy. At first, Ying Tian felt a little uncomfortable, but over time she was forced to get used to it.

Facing Fan Wumian, who was superior in every way, Ying Tian's heart pounded. She hesitated for a moment before tentatively replying:
"I'm fine with anything. You're the boss, you make the decisions." (End of Chapter)
