"Director Zhao, long time no see. May I know why you're here? "Xiao Yuanyang shook hands with Zhao Mingsheng and asked politely.
Zhao Mingsheng smiled and said, "It's mainly to review the 'Empresses in the Palace' that our company invested in."
"The 'Empresses in the Palace' that we invested 600 million yuan in? That's fast. " Xiao Yuanyang looked at Xiao Yunhai and his eyes lit up. "This must be the famous Yun Huang, Xiao Yunhai, right?"
Xiao Yunhai extended his hand and smiled. "Hello, Director Xiao. It's nice to meet you."
Xiao Yuanyang seemed to admire Xiao Yunhai's attitude. He shook Xiao Yunhai's hand and said, "Our surnames are both Xiao, so we can be considered the same family. I really admire your talent. Especially the three wuxia novels that you wrote. They were really well written. "
Xiao Yunhai said politely, "I'm honored that Director Xiao likes my humble works."
Xiao Yuanyang waved his hand and said, "Don't call me Director Xiao in the future. Just call me Brother Yuanyang. I like to interact with young talents like you the most. Let's get together when we have time. "
Xiao Yunhai realized that Xiao Yuanyang was too casual with his words. Not only did he not speak in a bureaucratic manner, he even took the initiative to call him brother. What was he thinking?
Although he was confused, Xiao Yunhai's face was full of smiles. "Then I'll accept your invitation, Brother Yuanyang."
Xiao Yuanyang laughed and patted Xiao Yunhai's shoulder. Then, he took out a business card from his briefcase and said, "Just because you're my brother, you can look for me if you need anything in the future. I still have something to do, so I won't talk much. Director Zhao, Yunhai, we'll meet again someday. "
"See you."
Looking at Xiao Yuanyang's back, Zhao Mingsheng asked Xiao Yunhai in confusion, "This Bureau Chief Xiao usually has his eyes on top of his head. Why is he so nice to you the first time he met you?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head. "I don't know either. But I could feel that he had no ill will towards me. Uncle, who is he? "
A reverent expression appeared on Zhao Mingsheng's face as he softly said, "He's from the Xiao Family, one of the biggest political families in Hua Xia. The founding father of the nation, Xiao Xiongfeng, was his grandfather. The newly appointed third chief was his father. He also had two uncles, both of whom were high-ranking officials. In a few more years, the two of them would probably rise to the center of power. Don't you think it's amazing? "
Xiao Yunhai said in shock, "Amazing. However, I think it's best if we don't provoke this kind of political family, lest we get messed up by the Xiao family's competitors. "
Zhao Mingsheng laughed and said, "You're thinking too much, kid. The power that can compete with the Xiao family must also be a superpower. In their eyes, we're probably not even small fries. How would they have the time to specially make trouble for us? "
Xiao Yunhai chuckled. "That's true."
That night, Xiao Yunhai called Tiger Liang, but he didn't expect him to run overseas with the old man.
Xiao Yunhai thought of the devastation his predecessor had suffered overseas and felt pity for Tiger Liang.
After telling him to take good care of the old man, Xiao Yunhai didn't say anything else and hung up.
There were still two months before Tiger Liang returned. The length of the review for Empresses in the Palace didn't matter. Even if the screening permit was issued in advance, Xiao Yunhai wouldn't be in a hurry to broadcast it and compete with Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
Moreover, there weren't any movies or TV series in Immensity Sea that needed to be reviewed recently, so Xiao Yunhai wasn't in a hurry.
After settling the matter, Xiao Yunhai suddenly had some free time.
In a few days, the Golden Bottle TV Awards ceremony would be held. The news that Wang Guoan sent in advance was slightly different.
Xiao Yunhai was nominated for Best Screenplay and Best Actor for Every Step, and he was nominated for Best Theme Song. One was "Borrow 500 Years from the Heavens" and the other was "Three Inches of Heaven." As Wang Guoan wasn't very sensitive to music, he didn't pay too much attention to it.
Xiao Yunhai was nominated for three awards in a row, which made his fans very excited.
Xiao Yunhai had only been in the industry for a year, and he had achieved such great results. It was indeed admirable.
The selection method for the Golden Bottle TV Awards was similar to the Golden Bottle TV Awards. The audience accounted for 30%, the experts accounted for 70%, and each phone number could only vote for one star.
Only when the average rating of a TV series was higher than 1% or the highest rating was higher than 3%, would they be eligible for selection. There were a total of 26 TV series.
For Xiao Yunhai, the probability of winning Best Screenplay and Best Theme Song was very high, but it was a little difficult to win Best Actor.
This time, the biggest enemy of Every Step was Kangxi the Great. The two shows were indeed very fated. The director was Chen Qingqing, and the actress who played Kangxi the Great was Huang Peiqi. It was a little like the left hand fighting the right hand.
With Xiao Yunhai's popularity, the audience's votes were definitely not a problem, but it was hard to say for the experts. After all, compared to the older generation of Best Actors like Huang Peiqi, his acting skills were still slightly flawed.
Xiao Yunhai rested at home for two days, and Su Yingxue came to him.
After seeing Su Yingxue, Xiao Yunhai said with an extremely exaggerated expression, "Isn't this my manager, Su Yingxue? We haven't seen each other for almost two years, right? You still remember that I'm an artist under you. I'm so happy and touched. "
Su Yingxue chuckled and said, "What? When I was in front of you all day long, you thought I was annoying. Now that I don't appear, you complain that I forgot about you. Xiao Yunhai, it's really not easy to be your manager. "
Ever since the incident with Chen Yaowei, Su Yingxue and Xiao Yunhai had a gap. In addition, Xiao Yunhai had been busy with Empresses in the Palace, so Su Yingxue focused most of her energy on Dong Piaopiao. The number of times she saw Xiao Yunhai could be counted on one hand.
Now that three months had passed, Su Yingxue heard Xiao Yunhai's glib tongue again, and the familiarity and intimacy of the past came back. The gap between the two was like snow meeting the scorching sun.
Xiao Yunhai also keenly felt that Su Yingxue was different, and he was very happy.
He had also noticed the problem between the two before, but this kind of psychological problem could not be dealt with at all. It could only be slowly diluted with time.
Fortunately, it didn't take long for everything to return to normal.
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, "Sister Xue, you're saying it as if I'm difficult to serve. Tell me, as soon as you came in, I smelled a strong smell of money. It must be something I don't want to do, right? "
Su Yingxue snapped her fingers and said with a smile, "That's right. Do you remember that you promised me that you would be willing to shoot a few commercials after Step by Step was broadcast? "
Xiao Yunhai played dumb and said, "Did I? Did I promise you that? "
Su Yingxue saw that Xiao Yunhai was deliberately acting shamelessly, so she directly rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "Don't play dumb with me. Do you know how much you're worth now? Do you know how much the company wants you to shoot a few commercials? Do you know how much pressure I've taken on for you? Do you know … "
"Stop, stop, stop," Xiao Yunhai quickly interrupted Su Yingxue and said, "Sister Xue, why didn't the company tell me?"
Su Yingxue said, "You're now a big star in the company, and you've made so much money for the company. No one wants to offend you. As the saying goes, pick the soft persimmon. I, a small agent, have become the target of their bullying. Do you think it's easy for me? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Sister Xue, you've suffered. Well, in order to save you from the company's cruel suppression, I'll reluctantly shoot a few commercials. "
Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Su Yingxue's face immediately revealed a sweet smile and said, "That's right. Let me tell you, since the start of 'Step by Step', I've received hundreds of contracts. Among them, there are six advertisements for leather shoes, four advertisements for sunglasses, and a maximum of twelve advertisements for watches. With your current popularity and character, they've all offered very generous terms, and the endorsement period is also very long, with an average of 25 million to 40 million a year. "
"How much? 40 million? Which idiot is this? Even those Heavenly Kings and Queens' endorsement fees aren't that high. "Xiao Yunhai said in surprise.
In Hua Xia's entertainment circle, an endorsement fee of more than 20 million was already very high, and it was the value of a top artist.
More than 30 million was the value of the extremely popular Heavenly Kings and Queens.
As for 40 million, only three to five people in Hua Xia had such a price tag.
Xiao Yunhai had only been in the entertainment circle for about a year. It was really shocking to be able to get such an endorsement contract.
Su Yingxue's heart was also filled with emotion. For a genius artist like Xiao Yunhai, even if you searched the whole world, you wouldn't find an artist who rose faster than him.
If there was a Guinness World Record in this regard, Xiao Yunhai would definitely be the first.
"Yunhai, don't think that people are stupid. Take the Blizzard Glasses as an example. Although they offered 40 million yuan, the restrictions on you inside were very big. For example, you can't endorse any other type of glasses; you have to wear Blizzard brand sunglasses when you participate in outside activities; whenever a new model appears, you have to closely cooperate with their publicity; you have to attend at least two press conferences a year; the contract period is ten years, and so on. The higher the price of the brand, the more restrictions there are. Can you stand it? "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Why can't I stand it? It's not like you don't know that I don't care much about my appearance. As long as they can provide it to me for free, even if I have to wear it for the rest of my life, it'll save me a lot of trouble. "
"You really agree to such conditions?"
"Yes, why wouldn't I agree? I was just worried about going out to buy these things. "
"That's good." Su Yingxue took out a stack of documents from her backpack, picked out three of them, and said, "These are the companies that offered you 40 million. Take a look first. If you don't have any objections, I'll contact them. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded, picked up the documents, and looked at them carefully.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yunhai returned to Su Yingxue and said, "How are the reviews of these companies' products? There shouldn't be any problems with the quality, right? "
Su Yingxue said, "Of course there's no problem. You can check online. Most of the netizens' reviews are very good. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's good. Sister Xue, it's them. It's best to confirm it as soon as possible and get all the advertisements done within a week. I don't want to waste too much time on this. "
Su Yingxue said happily, "No problem. I'll contact them right away. Now, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. "
Su Yingxue was indeed very efficient. That afternoon, all three advertisement contracts were done.
The next day, Xiao Yunhai signed the contracts separately, and then it was time to shoot the advertisements. It took a total of five days to complete everything.
At this time, the TV Drama Golden Goblet Awards Ceremony officially began.
Xiao Yunhai was no longer the same as before. Whether it was his popularity, reputation, or the quality of his works, he was at the top of the industry. The only regret was that he didn't have a particularly important award in his hands.
Golden Goblet's red carpet was still shining with stars. All kinds of actresses were wearing eye-catching clothes, showing off their enchanting figures and charming demeanor.
In order to attract people's attention, all kinds of clothes, such as cleavage, backless, and deep V-necks, appeared one after another. The reporters kept taking pictures with their cameras, and the fans were crazily calling their idols' names.
One of the actresses deliberately stepped on her own skirt and then fell to the ground in a graceful posture. Immediately, it caused a commotion around her, and the camera flashes turned into a sea of thunder.
This time, the Golden Goblet Awards Organizing Committee arranged for Xiao Yunhai to appear last. His girlfriend, Zhao Wanqing, would be walking the red carpet with him.
The "Step by Step" starring the two of them became popular throughout the Hua Xia, and the ratings exceeded 20%. They were also popular candidates for the best male and female lead awards. The organizing committee also wanted to cause the biggest sensation, so they made Mr. Si and Ruoxi appear together.
There were still ten minutes before they walked the red carpet. Xiao Yunhai and Zhao Wanqing were already sitting in a Rolls-Royce waiting for them.
Xiao Yunhai looked at Zhao Wanqing, who was wearing a long white dress with her breasts slightly exposed. He pursed his lips and said softly, "Why are you dressed so sexily?"
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said in an inaudible voice, "Why? Are you jealous? "
Xiao Yunhai rolled his eyes and secretly touched her inner thigh with his hand. He said, "You'll have a good time tonight."
Zhao Wanqing's face turned red. She grabbed Xiao Yunhai's naughty hand tightly and said softly, "Let go of me. There's a driver in front."
Xiao Yunhai glanced at the driver who was sitting upright and still. Only then did he unwillingly withdraw his hand.
"Mr. Xiao, Miss Zhao, we're leaving."
After a while, the driver suddenly said.
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Okay."
The car started slowly. Two minutes later, it stopped.
The person who just walked over was the hot favorite to win the award, Teacher Huang Peiqi. Her female companion was the Movie Queen Zhang Hong. Huang Peiqi relied on her outstanding performance in "Kangxi the Great Emperor" to compete with Xiao Yunhai for the Movie Emperor position. And Zhang Hong relied on her role as Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang in "Kangxi the Great Emperor" to compete with Zhao Wanqing for the Movie Queen crown.
