Respawn Entertainment

Time flipped to this page on May 1, 1998.

At 6 pm, reporters gathered in the conference hall of the 8th floor of Shangri-La Hotel in Kowloon, Hong Kong, Yunjiu, and Yuhuang Entertainment Co., Ltd. and Tianxia Publishing Co., Ltd. signed an adaptation agreement for the comic "Fengyun" TV series.

After the contract was signed, the chairman of Jade Emperor Entertainment, the gold medal producer, the famous movie star Chen Lin, the chairman of Tianxia Publishing Co., Ltd., and the famous cartoonist Ma Rongcheng jointly issued a brief statement.

The statement pointed out that Jade Emperor Entertainment spent 30 million yuan to join hands with the famous cartoonist Mr. Ma Rongcheng to create a beautiful and fantastic martial arts masterpiece "The World of the World". The original author Mr. Ma Rongcheng himself will personally be the screenwriter.

As soon as the statement was announced, especially the huge investment of 30 million yuan immediately caused a stir.

The current market is a huge investment, and companies without strength have no courage to spend 30 million on a TV series.

Don’t think that TV series is very profitable. Every industry has risks. The TV series industry is extremely risky. More than two-thirds of the series cannot be broadcast every year. These investments are completely wasted. Even if it can be broadcasted, there are only a few TV series that can make a profit every year.

Chen Lin saw a statistics in 2004, which said that in 2004, the total number of TV series in China reached 100 episodes, but only about 5,000 episodes could be broadcast in prime time, and there were only about 7,000 episodes left to waste the money and lost all the money. Someone gave a simpler data. The total investment of TV series production companies can reach 5 billion to 6 billion yuan each year, but the TV series market recycling is only about 100 million yuan each year, so the overall situation of Chinese TV series is a loss.

1998 was a special year. After the financial crisis, major film and television companies were reducing their investments, while Yuhuang Entertainment, a small company that had been established for less than a year, actually went the other way, not only not compressed but also increased its investment.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, Yuhuang Entertainment's current scale is no longer small in China. It not only has the ratings masterpiece "Meteor Garden" and the ace variety show "Happy Camp". It plans to shoot three TV series this year, one of which has been produced in Beijing with a low-cost production.

Some media reporters who are more concerned about the development of Jade Emperor Entertainment also know that on May 3, the day after tomorrow, the ace variety show "Two Days and One Night", which claims to be below "Happy Camp", will be aired soon.

Many reporters' memories of Jade Emperor Entertainment are still at the opening ceremony in November last year. In everyone's impression, Jade Emperor is just a small company that has been established for less than a year.

In the blink of an eye, the small company was able to invest 30 million in masterpieces. The rapid development speed made the reporters present not only not shocked.

For a time, the reporters' interest in Jade Emperor Entertainment increased greatly and asked questions, but unfortunately, Chen Lin was not ready to return to everyone's questions.

"Thank you all for your visit. I have important things to deal with. The press conference is over here. We will have the opportunity to meet in the future. We will answer your concerns at that time. Thank you, thank you..." Chen Lin clasped his fists and apologized to the reporters, and then left with Mr. Ma Rongcheng.

The reporters were unwilling to give up and wanted to chase after him, but they were stopped by the bodyguards.

The reason why Chen Lin did not respond to reporters' questions was his own consideration. The promotion cycle of a TV series from preparation to release is 2-3 months, and some are even longer. The news disclosed to the media in each period is somewhat particular. The crew of "Storm and Cloud" is still in the preparation stage and should not disclose more substantive content to the media. It is appropriate to keep it mysterious, continuously and sustainable to attract the attention of the media.

At 7 pm, Chen Lin and bodyguard Zhang Lei arrived at the InterContinental Hotel Tsim Sha Tsui together. There was a grand fashion show here tonight. The organizer invited Lin Zhiling, an artist under the Jade Emperor, to take the stage to walk the show as the finale of the night.

Chen Lin happened to be in Hong Kong and naturally wanted to support his people.

After Chen Lin and the others showed their invitations at the hotel front desk, they guided them to enter a special elevator. Just as the elevator was about to be closed, a bald man in his 50s walked in.

The bald man was holding a cluster of flowers in his hand, and two bodyguards were following behind him.

Chen Lin glanced at the bald man. He was old and still had a heart that was so beautiful that he admired him.

At this time, he accidentally saw a small note on the rose in the bald man's hand, which read: Dedicated to the beautiful Miss Zhiling.

Miss Zhiling is not Lin Zhiling, right?

Yes, this elevator is a dedicated passage to the 6th floor fashion show, and you can't get in without invitations. This person is also here to watch the fashion show, so there is no need to say that the flowers are definitely given to Lin Zhiling.

As soon as Chen Lin saw the name on the note, he immediately realized that it should be Lin Zhiling. However, although he understood, he was not moved because the bald man might be a fan of Lin Zhiling.

It is normal for beautiful women to love each other. Chen Lin didn't care and soon stopped paying attention to the bald man.

"Ding!" The sixth floor arrived. As soon as the elevator opened, the bald man and two bodyguards walked out first, Chen Lin and Zhang Lei followed closely behind.

When I got out of the elevator, I saw two welcome waiters. Under the guidance of the waiter, I walked about 10 meters to the left and turned a corner into a hall.

This is the performance venue for the fashion show. At this time, the hall was crowded with people, and most of the people who watched the show were well-dressed and dressed as celebrities or wealthy businessmen, and there were many journalists.

In the center of the hall is a long runway, with the crowd sitting on both sides of the runway.

Soon, under the guidance of a staff member, Chen Lin and Zhang Lei found their positions. Their positions were in the middle of the first row next to the runway. This position was very good. Usually, the first row was filled with people with status and status.

Chen Lin had just sat down, and a young woman in her 30s next to her, wearing a girlish pink dress and a pair of peach blossom eyes. She had good skin care. She glanced at him a few times and recognized him.

"Baby Lin?" The young woman called Chen Lin in surprise.

Haha, it was recognized by fans, Chen Lin nodded to the young woman and smiled friendly.

"Wow, I'm so happy." The young woman seemed to be a fan of Chen Lin. Her idol sat beside her and made her happy like a little girl. Then she couldn't wait to say, "Baby Lin, do you know, I like you so much, you are more handsome than on TV."

"Thank you for your praise." Chen Lin smiled and thanked.

The young woman's name is Zhang Min. She really likes Chen Lin very much. Lin Baby is her dish and her fantasy companion in her sleep.

At this moment, Baby Lin was sitting beside him within reach, and could even hear his breathing and feel his body temperature. Zhang Min's heart was like a deer rushing around.

The more I look at it, the more I feel that Lin Baby is so cute. I really want to touch him and eat him in one bite. Before I know it, Zhang Min's watery peach blossom eyes became more and more charming...

Chen Lin soon noticed the strange look of the young woman beside him. He was not a fool or a brother Chu, so he naturally understood that this young woman was interested in him. (To be continued.)
