Huayu09: Starting with Hijacking Xiao Shenyang

"good!"

"Hahaha!!!"

Thunderous applause filled CCTV's Studio One, and the guests' smiles stretched from ear to ear.

"Not Short of Money" has achieved unprecedented success.

Chen Mo and his group did not stay in the capital and returned to Fengtian overnight.

In the car.

Everyone was happy, except for Xiao Shenyang, who was depressed.

Regarding the alleged hijacking, Chen Mo was also the one who was unfairly targeted, and there's no point in saying anything now; he can only wait for the victim to process it.

Chen Mo closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, pondering what would happen next.

First of all, he became famous!

And he will definitely become a huge star, with at least half of the Chinese people remembering his appearance and attire overnight, and various commercial performances and announcements will follow one after another.

But he didn't want to keep playing the role of a second chair.

man!

One should be like He Rundong, standing tall and upright with a long spear on horseback.

Don't be like that certain foundation general, who looks like he uninstalled QQ from his pants even though he's a grown man.

After much deliberation, Chen Mo decided to make a movie.

Firstly: There is something hanging there.

Secondly: It's good to have a big tree to lean on for shade.

Thirdly, the big screen is at the top of the entertainment industry's hierarchy of tastes, and it has a high level of prestige.

Even a powerful media empire like Benshan Media dares not easily get involved and even cautiously avoids it.

Is it that they don't want a slice of the 60 billion-plus pie?

Not also!

In 1999, Zhao Benshan invested 4 million yuan to film "Male Women's Director", but the box office was only 2.8 million yuan, and he received less than 1 million yuan.

From then on, Zhao Benshan stayed obediently in the comfort zone of television dramas and dared not touch movies anymore.

Until 2009, New Pictures, with a small goal in mind, found Shen Yang, who had become an overnight sensation, to film "A Simple Noodle Story". Zhao Benshan's team acted in the film for almost zero pay, and it eventually grossed 2.5 million yuan.

With box office revenue sharing, copyright fees, and product placement, the investors netted over 3000 million yuan.

Teacher Zhao was somewhat envious. Even terrible movies that received poor market feedback could make money. Why not get involved?

In 2010, Benshan Media was the main investor in the film "The Laughing Swordsman".

At present, Benshan Media wants to get involved in the film industry, but without high-quality content and without entering the core circle, it can only watch helplessly.

"A Simple Noodle Story" can be understood as Zhao Benshan selling favors and buying connections.

The film industry, or rather all industries, is extremely xenophobic.

Those outside the circle who want a piece of the pie from those inside have to pay protection money first.

Whether you're a financial tycoon or a coal mine owner, everyone is treated equally.

In summary.

Chen Mo wants to be a game-changer in the film industry for Benshan Media!

Our master is already so old, why should he do favors for those worthless soldiers?

As a time traveler, I have long since lost the mystique surrounding the sleazy world.

They're the same way, both domestically and internationally.

So-called art is one-quarter pretentious, one-quarter politically correct, and one-quarter about trivial matters.

Only a very small number of STEM men are seriously making movies.

It's so damn funny.

But then again.

Chen Mo had no right to worry unnecessarily; he should first gain fame and fortune before considering anything else.

The shortcut is either the three major European universities or the Oscars.

In the current domestic environment, the mainstream trend is to worship foreign things and fawn over foreigners. If you want to gain a foothold in the film industry, you must first gain the recognition of foreigners.

What kind of film should we make?

……

The next day.

As expected, it achieved great success and popularity.

Major news media outlets rushed to report on "Little Shen Yang" in "Not Short of Money," which is Chen Mo.

The residents of Chaoyang District, taxi drivers, and elderly people at the village entrance were all imitating lines from a skit.

Reporters swarmed to the Benshan Media Base in Sujiatun, Fengtian, like mosquitoes attracted by the smell of blood, and anyone connected to Chen Mo was questioned.

At this time, Chen Mo's popularity was inexplicable, unmatched, and the entire entertainment industry was trying to ride on his coattails.

of course.

There were those who praised it and those who criticized it.

What are these terms: cross-dressing, sexual perversion, attention-seeking, lack of culture, peasant mentality, and artistic decadence?

Even his master, Zhao Benshan, was not spared.

It vilifies the image of farmers, smears Northeast China, is vulgar, and corrupts apprentices, among other things.

Both sides, one online and one offline, held their own views and argued fiercely.

Under the title of "Little Shen Yang", Chen Mo moved around to various TV stations and theaters, receiving so many commercial performance offers that he was overwhelmed.

He didn't like being a second-in-command, but he had no right to refuse the company's arrangements, nor did he ever think of refusing.

Instead, he gave it his all at every event. In Scala, Harbin, he downed 20 bottles of beer in a row. Even when he was vomiting acid, he didn't rest and immediately headed to a shopping mall in Kunming.

Chen Mo's appearance fee skyrocketed from 150 yuan to 15 yuan.

On average, they perform two shows a day.

In just half a month, they made a net profit of more than 200 million yuan.

But not much actually ended up in Chen Mo's hands.

His current contract with the company is a base salary of 6000 yuan plus 20% of his commercial performance revenue. After becoming a top star, he can earn 22 yuan (after tax) in half a month of hard work.

Chen Mo did not complain at all and did not mention the word "money" once in front of Zhao Benshan.

My principle is: I will accept what my master gives me, but I will absolutely not accept what my master does not give me.

"Xiao Mo, you must be exhausted these days. Take a good rest for a couple of days."

Zhao Benshan looked at his beloved disciple and liked him very much.

Despite becoming an overnight sensation, he remained humble and approachable, treating everyone with no airs of a celebrity, and unconditionally obeying any arrangements made by the company.

The most commendable thing is that they are not greedy for money.

Many masters and disciples have fallen out over money, even becoming estranged forever.

Having spent so many years navigating the Northeast, Lao Zhao has a keen eye for people.

Xiao Mo is definitely a promising talent!

"I thought my master was going to work me to death."

Chen Mo pursed his lips.

"Pah, pah, pah, what unlucky things are you saying? Master finally sees some return on investment, and you want to quit?" Zhao Benshan rolled his eyes. "Something great is happening these next few days, so I need to conserve my energy."

"What good news?"

Chen Mo pressed for an answer.

You'll find out then.

Zhao Benshan kept everyone in suspense.

"Someone asked me to make a movie?"

Chen Mo hit the nail on the head.

Calculate the time.

New visuals should be arriving soon, drawn by the scent.

Those terrible movies that exploit people for profit, let whoever wants to make them make them.

His script and storyboard were completed immediately, and they would absolutely blow "A Simple Noodle Story" out of the water.

"How did you know? You're such a clever little devil!"

Zhao Benshan pointed at someone in the air.

The smile on his face widened even more.

Who doesn't love a well-behaved, sensible, and clever child?

at this time.

Xiao Shenyang walked out of the office with his head hanging low.

He failed to perform on the Spring Festival Gala, and his dream of becoming a star was shattered.

Chen Mo snatched all the performance opportunities from her.

My daughter is about to start kindergarten, which will make our family's finances even tighter.

I came to see my master today to ask if it's possible to allocate some of Chen Mo's commercial performances.

After all, he is the real Shen Yang.

"division…"

Just as Xiao Shenyang was about to knock on the door, he heard arguing coming from inside.

"I won't film it, let Yang Ge film it. This opportunity to be on the Spring Festival Gala originally belonged to Yang Ge. I can't accept both commercial performances and filming movies, can I?"

Xiao Shenyang withdrew his hand in shame.

"Nonsense, they value your popularity. Xiao Shenyang doesn't have that, how can they film it? Do you think the investors are idiots?"

"Yang Ge is the real Shen Yang. I stole his luck. Yang Ge still has a mortgage to pay off, and Yangyang is about to start kindergarten. He needs to become famous and make money more than I do, Master."

Xiao Shenyang covered his mouth with one hand.

*sobs*

"Sigh... Xiao Mo, your master knows you are loyal and righteous, but they specifically asked you to act in the role, and I already agreed."

"There's no contract, and we're all in the same industry. Who would dare disrespect my master?"

Zhang Yimou.

"So what? Liu Dehua came to the Northeast..."

"Stop! Silly child, a certain director has taken a liking to you. He's a national treasure, a world-renowned director with countless awards. Countless actors in the industry would beg and plead for such an opportunity, why don't you cherish it?"

"I have my own plans!"

"What kind of plan do you have? Master, give him a raise, and let him do the next episodes of 'Country Love,' then we'll have money!"

Neither the master nor the apprentice could convince the other.

Outside the office.

"Clap clap clap!"

Xiao Shenyang cried his eyes out and slapped himself repeatedly.
