Huayu: The Best Actor starts with obtaining the role entry

Chapter 276 - The Three Major TV Drama Awards!

Are they going to export goblins overseas again?!

Upon hearing Director Li's words, the others were not surprised, but Bai Ye's group was somewhat taken aback.

After all, as mentioned before, the drama "Goblin" contains some supernatural and bizarre elements.

This is not allowed!

Therefore, it is impossible for it to pass the review.

But now they're actually giving themselves the green light, though it seems there are conditions to this green light.

If we're going to export goblins overseas again, we'll probably have to make some localization changes.

Lin Wan glanced at Bai Ye, feeling somewhat anxious herself.

In Lin Wan's view, the achievements of "My Love from the Star" are somewhat unrepeatable.

What if I agree to it but then fail to keep my promise?!

Moreover, Bai Ye was in a period of great success at this time, so he might actually agree immediately.

"Director Li, is this overseas export you're talking about the same as 'My Love from the Star'?!"

Bai Ye considered it for a moment, then asked.

If it's like My Love from the Star, even The Day and Night can't guarantee anything.

The reason why "My Love from the Star" became a hit throughout Asia can be attributed to a combination of favorable timing, location, and people. The novelty and character design of this drama definitely gave it a huge advantage.

"It doesn't necessarily have to be like My Love from the Star; it just needs to have an impact overseas!"

Director Li shook his head, indicating that this was indeed not the case.

He's not stupid; he naturally knows that the success of "My Love from the Star" might truly lie in its unreplicable nature.

Besides, even if it were possible, there's no need to put so much pressure on Bai Ye at this time.

"Actually, after the success of My Love from the Star, we discussed it internally and thought we would give you the green light to try. As long as the red lines for your drama are not too serious, then you can go ahead and film it, and they will give you permission."

Your influence is already quite large, so giving you some special privileges is acceptable. However, the censorship of this drama will be extremely strict, as long as there are no fundamental issues.

I can assure you I absolutely won't cut you, so don't feel too much pressure.

Director Li essentially drew a line between Bai Ye and the enemy.

As long as Bai Ye stays within the red line, everything will be fine.

We shouldn't put too much pressure on the other party.

"I want to try."

"Great! Young people should have drive, it's good that you have this idea!!!"

Upon hearing Bai Ye's words, Director Li immediately raised his glass.

He wasn't afraid that Bai Ye wouldn't do a good job, he was just afraid that Bai Ye wouldn't have confidence!

Since he's confident in doing it, he feels pretty good as long as he doesn't mess it up too badly.

The atmosphere at the dinner table immediately became much more lively.

After finishing his meal, Director Li got up to leave.

Before leaving, he turned to Bai Ye and said as if he had just remembered, "By the way, I think you'll get an award this year. Keep up the good work and try again next year!"

Awards?!
Bai Ye was somewhat surprised, but also felt that it made sense.

After parting ways with Director Li.

In the car, Lin Wan was analyzing some of the things they had said at the dinner table for Bai Ye. Looking at Bai Ye with some emotion, she said, "It seems that Xing, your career is definitely more than just about popularity."
This time, you really rose to fame overnight thanks to your star power!

It has to be said that in the past, whether it was accidental killing or ghosts, things had changed.

Both of these topics are very sensitive.

When Bai Ye first mentioned wanting to film these two movies, Lin Wan actually thought it would be better to collaborate with South Korea or Japan.

If it's a case of mistaken identity, we might need to create two versions.

After all, the domestic version would absolutely not allow the person to escape being caught in the end.

And then there are ghosts and monsters, they're not allowed to appear anymore.

But after this dinner, they said that the ending of "Sheep Without a Shepherd" didn't need to be changed, and "Goblin" could be filmed and released as normal.

What is this red line they're talking about?!

It's just a matter of ideas, isn't it?
These are not problems at all!

So, in Lin Wan's opinion, the most important thing that Bai Ye gained from "My Love from the Star" was not popularity, but that he could get a green light in China.

That's what makes it so rare and precious!

In the past, although Bai Ye had the backing of Shanghai, he was essentially just a celebrity boss.

Now, thanks to his immense international influence following "My Love from the Star," his status in China has also risen accordingly.

The assistant chimed in with a compliment, saying, "Yeah, boss, you're really something now! I heard that several international luxury brands have been looking for you!"

Following "My Love from the Star," the commercial value of "Day and Night" skyrocketed.

Celebrity endorsements are a direct reflection of their commercial value.

The bigger the brand of the product an endorsement is, the higher the endorsement fee and the greater the commercial value.

While many big names used to seek out Bai Ye, the situation wasn't very friendly back then.

First of all, those who approached Bai Ye to become brand ambassadors were basically the six blue-blooded and eight red-blooded groups.

Don't be fooled by the fact that "Day and Night" was already very popular before "My Love from the Star" was released.

But they simply don't acknowledge it!

I think that Bai Ye is just a newcomer in the fashion industry.

They gave you the title of brand ambassador because they saw that you were very popular.

But now, with the appearance of My Love from the Star, everything is completely different.

Generally, brands are ranked as follows: Global Brand Ambassador > Asia-Pacific Brand Ambassador > Greater China Brand Ambassador > China Region Brand Ambassador > Brand Ambassador > Brand Friends.

Brand ambassadors and below do not receive endorsement fees; they generally only get to participate in brand events.

You could say they don't even pay you an endorsement fee, yet they still expect you to be their spokesperson.

But ironically, many celebrities in the country are eager to pursue it.

These days, people are practically begging to find Bai Ye!

"You've already made contact over there?!"

Bai Ye asked curiously.

I had contacted them before, but it seemed like they also felt they weren't high enough in the fashion world.

Therefore, I didn't have much contact with them.

"Not yet, just a preliminary intention. It mainly depends on whether you want to contact her alone or with Yang Mi."

Lin Wan shook her head; she had indeed had some contact with him before.

But the other party asked whether Bai Ye was alone or with Yang Mi.

This will facilitate their subsequent contact.

Therefore, Lin Wan was not in a hurry to make contact at this time.

The recent success of her album has made Lin Wan feel that she can wait a little longer.

What are you waiting for!?

Waiting for the movie!

The movie is sure to do well!
Furthermore, we don't plan to make any deals this year; we'll do that next year. Then, the studio will transform into a company, securing several large fashion resource deals. We'll aim for a strong start and build the company's reputation!
She was waiting for this matter to be hyped up, so she wasn't in a hurry about it.

Moreover, Bai Ye's attitude had been ambiguous before, which made Lin Wan unsure of what to do.

However, she wasn't in a hurry. She brought the topic back and looked at Bai Ye, then asked, "Regarding the movies and TV series, since it's already confirmed that filming can begin..."

Should we contact the production crew and actors?

Or release the news.

Or is it going to be an open audition?!

Surely they won't have to go through an open audition?
Lin Wan was thinking about how Bai Ye's company was about to be established.

If we continue with open auditions, it's a complete waste of company resources.

She actually thought highly of both dramas. The scripts were definitely good, especially "Sheep Without a Shepherd," which was an absolutely thrilling drama and one of a kind in China.

This can be seen by combining it with the fact that Bai Ye refused to give Yang Mi the opportunity to star in Sheep Without a Shepherd.

Perhaps Bai Ye has someone in mind?
"I haven't thought of anything yet. Maybe we should look among actresses in their thirties, like Fan Bingbing, Li Bingbing, or Gao Yuanyuan?"

Actually, there are quite a few candidates to choose from.

But.

The key is whether people are willing to come.

"I don't know about the others, but Fan Shuangbing would definitely be willing to come. Actually, Zhou Xun could also be considered, but I feel the age gap between you two is too big!"

Lin Wan made a joke.

Judging from this choice, Bai Ye seems to have quite a bit of ambition!
These three people are definitely not someone that today's post-85 actresses can rival in the film industry; they genuinely have a certain level of influence in the film world.

Despite Liu Shishi and Jing Tian's current box office success, it's clear to anyone with eyes that all their films' good results are due to Bai Ye's success.

When will it be possible to make a movie separately from "White Night" and still get good reviews and box office success?

When can I say I have the ability to carry a show?!
It's too early to talk about these things now.

The "Four Dan and Two Bing" (referring to four top actresses and two top actresses, respectively) are indeed the formidable figures currently surrounding all female stars.

"Let's see. Anyway, there's still some time. After we finish filming Our Times, we'll film Sheep Without a Shepherd, and then Goblin!"

It's perfect timing. Next year, he's guaranteed to have two movies and a TV series released, but he's also thinking that besides Goblin, he wants to finish filming W-Two Worlds, and then see if he can finish filming Signal at the end of the year, and release it the year after next.

Then, the year after that, they filmed Your Name, Unnatural.

In that case, all my scripts will be filmed.

"What about the ghosts?! Who are we going to find?! As for the schedule, we definitely have to book someone else in advance, right? Even though we're big stars, and everyone in the industry says that working with us will make us famous, we can't keep doing this forever, can we?!"

Besides, if they've already signed a contract, and you try to negotiate at the last minute, what if they demand an exorbitant penalty for breach of contract? You must have a first choice, right?!

Lin Wan was very clear about it.

The goal of filming day and night is to find suitable actors, not to simply move on to the next one if one doesn't work out.

So if he's unhappy about it and chooses the wrong person, it might even affect the quality of the TV series.

It's like accidental killing.

Even if you try to schedule an appointment with those people right now, they might not be available.

"What ghosts say."

Bai Ye remained silent for a while.

He originally felt that he had many candidates to choose from.

But since talking with Director Li, he felt that he had far fewer people to choose from.

"A bit of a dilemma?!"

Seemingly sensing some unspoken difficulty in Bai Ye's expression, Lin Wan immediately asked a question.

The issue of personnel selection?!

In Lin Wan's opinion, collaborating with Yang Mi would be extremely profitable, especially since she had already done so before.

"The main thing is that if we're going to go overseas next year, the results can't be bad, so we definitely need to create some buzz."

"Yang Mi?"

"No, I want to find Liu Shishi."

Bai Ye shook his head and then spoke his mind.

The female lead of Goblin, Bai Ye, will never look for Yang Mi again, no matter what.

Yang Mi's personality and appearance alone made her unsuitable for the lead role.

Moreover, collaborating with Liu Shishi is a publicity stunt.

"Liu Shishi?! That does seem like a good idea. After all, it's your first time officially working together as the male and female leads in a TV series. You could definitely use that as a selling point."

Besides, you also have Shen Jiayi (Ke Jingteng), Zhou Yu (Xiao Qiao), and even Shen Lian (Zhou Miaotong) from the upcoming film "Brotherhood of Blades".

"If you two continue to play a couple, it seems plausible!"

However, the key still lies with Liu Shishi.
Forget it.

Why should she worry about this? Others might be, but Liu Shishi's words gave Lin Wan the feeling that if Bai Ye had asked, she would probably have declined, even if she had the chance.

Cai Yinong didn't even need to say anything; Liu Shishi probably went and spoke to her herself.

"Should I talk to Tangren's side now?!"

"No need! Anyway, I'm going to do a roadshow with my senior sister in a few days, so I'll talk to her myself. I'll go ask first!"

Brotherhood of Blades is about to be released.

There wasn't much promotion beforehand; they've been focusing on promoting "You Are My Star" all along.

Therefore, Liu Shishi was the one who even went to promote the Embroidered Spring Blade.

However, the effect is not as good as when two people are together.

However, thanks to the popularity of "My Love from the Star," even if Liu Shishi didn't promote it, it wouldn't have much of an impact.

However, Liu Shishi had recently made time for this trip and was putting in a lot of effort.

She has recently been completely outshone by Yang Mi.

He was holding his breath, determined to achieve good box office results.

At least this way, when her fans face Yang Mi in the future, they won't be at a loss for words.

Liu Shishi naturally put in her best effort.

"Then you should go ahead and film some movies in the next few days. After that, you should squeeze out a day to attend the autograph session. Your album is doing very well. If you hold an autograph session, the album sales will be even higher."

The higher the sales volume, the easier it will be for me to release press releases, how about that?!

Lin Wan suggested.

There are some things to do at the upcoming book signing event, which will definitely require me to make time for them.

After all, so many fans supported them this time, it would be absolutely inexcusable for them not to do something.

"I'm fine with anything. Let's have a signing event. Then I'll just go straight back to my Girls' Generation drama set tomorrow!"

After thinking for a while, Bai Ye then spoke.

Lin Wan mentally planned Bai Ye's schedule, then asked, "By the way, what about that award? Do you have any ideas? The three major TV drama awards are the Magnolia Award, the Golden Eagle Award, and the Flying Apsaras Award!"

After Lin Wan finished speaking, she stared intently at Bai Ye.

After Director Li finished speaking, Lin Wan started to have her own thoughts.

It's fair to say that "Day and Night" has achieved some success—it has gained popularity and box office revenue—but it still seems to be missing something.
