Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 227 - Rumors of a romance with Gulnazar?
The copyright fee of 100 million is mostly just a rumor outside the industry.

However, many people in the industry have already received this news.

After all, there are quite a few acquaintances in these companies, and there were even people there when Tencent was making its offer.

Therefore, it was impossible to keep the price a secret at the time.

However, Penguin is not going to keep it a secret.

I spent so much money, that was an astronomical copyright fee. Now that I've paid it, I should at least promote it.

It's also a source of traffic.

Penguin Video has only been established for a short time, and Penguin attaches great importance to this video website.

This also relates to his subsequent series of plans.

Since we're going to be in the social networking field, we have to try everything.

Tencent has also been intentionally or unintentionally releasing some information.

This naturally confirms the news.

This transaction truly taught us a lesson.

"One hundred million?!"

Chen Kaige stared wide-eyed at the news, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

Although he was a bit arrogant, he said he cared more about art.

But that's a hundred million!

One hundred million!
No amount of artistry can buy this 100 million!

The copyright sales alone brought in 100 million yuan, and it's been rumored in the industry that Bai Ye's studio has at least 100 to 200 million yuan in working capital.

This doesn't seem to be just a rumor at all.

"Yes, that's a lot of money. By the way, has he evaded any taxes or anything? If so, we could look for problems in that area."

"Are you dragging a lot of celebrities in the industry down with you?!"

Chen Kaige remained silent.

If I did that now, it would probably affect more than just Bai Ye.

Even many people in the industry will be affected by this move.

I'm afraid I'll just disappear from the scene then.

But I bet they'll skimp on some of that 100 million, right?

Chen Kaige thought to himself, "This tax deduction is quite serious."

However, all of this is just my own speculation.

Many people in the industry share this view.

"One hundred million! He actually sold the copyright for one hundred million? My God, this kid has unlimited potential!"

Liu Xiaoli stared at the news in disbelief.

A few thoughts suddenly came to mind.

She does indeed look down on many celebrities in the industry.

Although he says his daughter is also a celebrity.

But this is different.

If my daughter really wants to get married, there are many men she can choose from.

However, she still looked down on many people.

Her main concern was that the other party's work could be of some help to Liu Yifei.

Then you need to be rich, and ideally, your age difference with Liu Yifei shouldn't be too great.

The key is whether Liu Yifei likes it or not.

The main reason is that Bai Ye is just too handsome.
If Bai Ye were even slightly less attractive, Liu Xiaoli would have considered having the two of them try it out.

Anyway, it's just a trial relationship. She can get a lot of resources from Bai Ye later, and he's also rich. If they get together, she feels it's okay.

After all, as long as Baiye holds the copyright, it will be a perpetual cash cow.

But he just happens to be handsome!
He's handsome and rich, and his daughter is beautiful, but that still poses a huge threat.

Even the most beautiful person can become tiresome after being together for a long time.

At that time, women will flock to him one after another.

"Mom, don't you dare have any other ideas!"

Seeing Liu Xiaoli like this, how could Liu Yifei not know what she was thinking?

Any other ideas?

You absolutely mustn't have any ideas about that!

"Are you stupid?! You can't even think about it?! And the most important thing is that I didn't say anything about this. After all, he's rich and handsome, so he'll probably cause a lot of trouble in the future. It'll be so easy for him to cheat on you."

"Mom, you're the silly one! You think being ugly means you won't cheat on your partner?!"

"."

Liu Xiaoli opened her mouth, but for a moment she didn't know what to say.

It really is.
Even if Liu Xiaoli wanted to refute it, she couldn't find a point to refute it, since what the person said was right.

Who says ugly people can't cheat?!

Maybe they're ugly, but they're even more adventurous.

"Mom, don't try to match me up with him! I don't know him at all!"

Liu Yifei was very embarrassed.

If I were to actually approach her, given my mother's wishes, I'd probably be too embarrassed to show my face in front of Bai Ye after what happened.

In any case, she absolutely refuses to be paired up with someone else.

But the copyright fee is really high!

She was actually quite envious.

However, Liu Yifei also understood what this really meant.

She actually enjoys a lot of freedom within the industry.

The main reason is that she has been an independent artist since her debut, without signing with a company or establishing a studio, because she doesn't want to be constrained like other female celebrities.

Artists who have signed with a company or established their own studios are eager to make money every day and try every means to market themselves and increase their popularity.

She actually knew that this meant she was destined never to have that much money.

Of course, the advantage is that freedom will not be restricted, and you can ignore those unspoken rules.

There wouldn't be much risk, since as long as she doesn't invest, she can't figure out how to spend her current money.

Actually, Liu Yifei was just envious of Bai Ye's ability to make money.

They wouldn't have the same thoughts as Liu Xiaoli, and wouldn't have any unnecessary ideas.

White Night Studio.

Dilireba sat in the conference room, looking around somewhat nervously.

At this moment, she still felt a little dizzy.

Previously, after receiving a phone call from someone claiming to be Lin Wan, Bai Ye's agent.

She was shocked.

At first, Dilraba thought she had encountered a scammer.

She's just a student at one school, how could she possibly catch the attention of Bai Ye's agent?!
Who is Bai Ye?!
The hottest celebrity in the entertainment industry right now, and I'm just a student, how could they possibly notice me?!
Although I looked it up online later.

Bai Ye's agent is indeed Lin Wan.

But if you can find something out yourself, then surely a scammer can too, right?

So at that time she still didn't believe it.

However, Lin Wan later contacted her school teacher directly to explain the situation.

After the teacher confirmed that it was someone from Baiye Studio, they immediately relayed the news to Dilraba.

This surprised Dilraba immensely.

no! ?
I've actually been noticed?!
What followed was a pleasant surprise, as she knew very well how Bai Ye was regarded in the industry.

Although he did not enter the entertainment industry.

But Bai Ye's famous title is, well, he's the one who's obsessed with bringing girls along, right?!

Actresses who have worked with Bai Ye will almost always ascend to a higher level.

Dilraba couldn't possibly be unaware of what it would mean if she could cooperate with Bai Ye.

Even though I know that even if I sign a contract, it's unlikely that we'll be able to work together immediately.

But I can't help but fantasize.

She hasn't told anyone that she's coming here yet.

After all, no one knew whether Bai Ye really wanted to recruit them.

Wouldn't it be embarrassing if I misunderstood the meaning?
"Nice to meet you, I'm Lin Wan. Would you like some water?"

Lin Wan walked in from outside the meeting room and placed an unopened bottle of mineral water in front of Reba.

She came back immediately after learning that Dilraba had arrived.

Her eyes lit up the moment she saw Dilraba.

She looks pretty good without makeup, but judging from her appearance, she's more suited to heavy makeup!
Feeling a little uncomfortable under Lin Wan's gaze.

"I had actually noticed you before, so I wanted to sign you. Our studio will be converted into a company next year."

So there's definitely a shortage of actors internally, since there are only two artists right now, and they're both male.

The company will definitely need its own people to act in its future productions.

Have you considered entering the entertainment industry? Or, before entering, have you thought about which company to sign with?

Baiye Studio is going to be converted into a company.

It's practically no secret within the industry.

The formalities have already been completed; everyone's not stupid, so they can see that.

Actually, Lin Wan felt that her words were somewhat superfluous.

They all got into the acting department of the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

How could I not consider entering the entertainment industry?!
Moreover, after she finished speaking, you could see a fleeting flicker of emotion in Dilraba's eyes.

Lin Wan knew very well that such a condition would be hard for a student who was still in school to refuse.

Ultimately, Bai Ye is currently very good at managing female artists, and his studio doesn't actually have any female artists.

Is it possible that the female lead will be there right from the start?!
Of course, this is definitely fake, after all, it's a bit much to cast someone as the female lead without any acting skills.

But one thing is for sure: he is definitely a key person the company is grooming for future success.

Dilraba isn't stupid, how could she not know?

"I've only been in school for a year. Isn't this a bit too fast?!"

Even though Dilraba was already incredibly tempted.

But I still held back.

She felt like this was a windfall. "Actually, I noticed you because a friend mentioned you, and then I went to the school to check you out and thought you were really great."

Later, I came back and asked Bai Ye about it, since we hadn't initially considered signing a female artist.

We prefer to find newcomers rather than established ones.

As for whether it's too early, if you think fame should come later, then I have nothing to say.

Lin Wan didn't care what Dilraba said.

It's understandable that she's worried, but she thinks Dilraba is a smart person.

Because she saw ambition in Dilraba's eyes.

She won't give up.

The reason I say this is simply because I have some concerns in my heart.

After listening to Lin Wan's words, Dilraba did not refute them. She knew very well that it was indeed best to become famous as early as possible.

And if she signed with Bai Ye earlier, wouldn't she be considered an early shareholder?

Before coming, she had also learned about the situation of Baiye Studio.

"If I sign with the company, how will they train me?! And how many female artists will the company sign?!"

Resources are limited.

The company will recruit many female artists later on.

Then I have no competitiveness at all.

"Currently, including you, there are two. We are still in talks with another person, and we don't know if they will join. We won't look for too many, since the studio needs to prioritize the resources of its own people, which is sufficient."

So you don't need to worry about resource issues.

I've told you about most of the benefits, now let me tell you one requirement.

We are prepared to sign a 2+10 long-term contract, which means a 2-year observation period plus a 10-year long-term contract.

This contract is very long, I hope you think it through before signing!

12! ?

A hint of shock flashed in Dilraba's eyes.

But then I thought, maybe it's actually only a 9-year contract?!

Because she is a sophomore this year, which means that three years will have passed by the time she graduates.

Although I could go out and film before graduation.

But how could someone like them, who just graduated and has no connections, possibly have a chance?!

New player contracts are only for that long period.

First of all, it takes at least two or three years to train a new person, and there is no guarantee that they can be trained.

If things take off, they can make a stable income for a few years, and then it will be time to discuss contract renewal.

It won't be dirt cheap then.

"If you join the company, you're a sophomore now. If there's an opportunity later, we can arrange for you to appear in the drama 'White Night' first. After you graduate, we'll guarantee you a supporting role as the second female lead."

Going forward, company resources will prioritize those of our own employees.

The only thing you might find a little bad is that you have to sign a long-term contract.

Furthermore, our company will not allow our artists to engage in drinking and socializing!

Lin Wan felt that the last point was absurd.

However, within the industry, many companies require their artists to accompany clients for drinking and socializing.

Bai Ye had said back then that he wouldn't do those things, and that he would protect the artists under his management.

He offended both the Beijing and Hong Kong entertainment circles precisely because he didn't want to lose his independence.

He certainly doesn't want to see things turned upside down now.

"Um...can I think about it first? I'll give you an answer within three days."

"No problem. You can contact me if you've thought it through. You can bring your lawyer when you come to sign the contract."

"Uh-huh."

Dilraba nodded and walked from the studio back to school.

She was still a little dizzy.

I was actually recruited by Baiye Studio.

Shanghai Dramatic Arts Academy.

dorm room.

Seeing Dilraba return to her dorm looking distracted, Yuan Bingyan asked curiously, "Dilraba, what's wrong with you?!"

strangeness.
I went out this morning, and when I came back I was completely distracted.

strange!
It's really weird!

Did something happen to her when she went out?!
Something felt off when I watched Dilraba yesterday.

"Yan Yan, I have something to tell you, but don't tell anyone yet."

"Okay, go ahead and tell me!"

Yuan Bingyan nodded repeatedly.

Dilraba glanced around to make sure no one was watching before whispering, "Yan Yan, I'm signing with a company."

"A contract?! What company is this?! Are we being scammed?"

Dilraba is so beautiful.

You have to be careful not to get scammed!
Dilraba then recounted her experience at the White Night Studio.

Upon hearing that Bai Ye had extended an olive branch to her, Yuan Bingyan's mouth involuntarily widened, and her eyes showed some shock!

"What is Dilraba hesitating for?! Everyone in the Shanghai entertainment circle knows that she is being heavily promoted, and countless people in schools want to join her!"
Besides, the most crucial point is that their studio doesn't have any female artists right now. If you went there, wouldn't they be set to take off?!

Wouldn't all these resources then go directly to Dilraba?!
Hearing her words, Reba couldn't help but sigh and said, "Actually, I think it's pretty good, but it takes a bit long."

The contract duration is 2+10.

After Dilraba finished speaking, Yuan Bingyan fell silent.

Indeed, how many twelve-year periods does one have in a lifetime?
By the time this contract expires, Dilraba will be thirty years old.

The golden age for female celebrities has come to an end.

But she quickly realized what was going on and said, "There's another 2. If you don't pass, then the contract with the junior and senior years will be terminated."

You can still look for other companies later. Besides, you're still in school, what other companies would want to contact you?!
A company has contacted you, and they even said they'll arrange some roles for you with screen time. Why don't you secure those opportunities first?!

Yuan Bingyan felt it would be better to sign a contract first.

As for what happens in the future, we'll talk about that later.

After all, they might not even sign a contract in two years!

But I'm a little worried.

"What are you worried about? Unspoken rules?! Didn't she say there wouldn't be any?! Besides, to put it bluntly, if Bai Ye were to use unspoken rules against you, you wouldn't actually lose out, would you?!"

When Dilraba noticed Yuan Bingyan's teasing look, she immediately became angry: "Oh my god!! You actually teased me!!"

What do you mean by saying you didn't lose out even after being sexually harassed by Bai Ye?!
Thinking about it that way, signing with Bai Ye doesn't seem like a bad deal after all?
How about we take a lawyer to see him tomorrow? If there are no problems, we can sign it!

Beijing Film Academy.

With her school teachers as witnesses, Gulnazar signed with Baiye Studio.

It's also a 2+10 contract.

Although it may seem harsh, Bai Ye is not a philanthropist. The artists he cultivates often leave after a few years.

"Pleasant to work with."

Bai Ye extended his hand and shook hands with Gulnazar.

Signing a contract with Gulnazar wasn't too difficult.

When I last contacted Gulnazar, we talked about signing a contract over the phone, but she wanted me to come to the school to confirm it.

Then we'll discuss this at school.

So Bai Ye and his assistant rushed over.

Through the introduction of a teacher from the Beijing Film Academy, Bai Ye finally met the legendary most beautiful art exam candidate.

It’s really beautiful.

He felt a pang of emotion; with such good looks, even without his mentorship, she would likely have a place in the entertainment industry in the future.

"Yes, it's a pleasure doing business with you."

Gulnazar reached out and carefully shook hands with him, her eyes involuntarily glancing at Bai Ye.

So handsome
Gulnazar also has a bit of a crush on a guy. She actually knows that she might not be a little smart, or what people commonly call a bit stupid.

They are easily deceived.

So after learning it was Bai Ye, she didn't dare go directly to Shanghai to find him, but instead asked Bai Ye to come over.

The teacher and lawyer both reviewed the contract and found no problems.

After confirming that everything was as Bai Ye had said, she signed it directly.

After all, the contract was fine, and the boss is so handsome!
She admits that she is somewhat of a fangirl and also somewhat attracted to good-looking people.

"You can visit the studio when you have time. After that, just focus on your studies at school. If there's an opportunity later, I'll ask you to play some minor roles!"

Bai Ye and Gulnazar walked and talked as they walked through the school.

She didn't say anything, she just followed Bai Ye.

The appearance of the two instantly caused an uproar throughout the entire Beijing Film Academy.

What did they see? !

Students from the Beijing Film Academy all took out their phones and started taking pictures.

A popular young actor and Gulnazar were seen strolling together at school!

And many men felt a pang of jealousy watching it.

Gulnazar entered the Beijing Film Academy with the title of the most beautiful art exam candidate.

Many people had already set their sights on that.

Before they could even make a move, they were already defeated by Bai Ye?!
Not
You're someone who's been around in the industry for a while, and you still want to come to the school to steal things?!

exposure!

This must be exposed!!

The students at the Beijing Film Academy couldn't stand it; they had to take pictures of it and post them online.

That night.

The news about Gulnazar and Bai Ye spreading rumors at the Beijing Film Academy went viral.

These news reports also included some photos, though they weren't particularly clear, since no one actually went up there to take pictures.

But it's probably still possible to tell that it's Bai Ye.

One is a rising star, the other is the most beautiful art exam candidate.

The rumors surrounding the two naturally attracted a lot of attention.
