180, Shonan Satellite TV
Not long after, Lin Wen came to this banquet hall again. The layout of this cocktail party was similar to the last time Lin Wen came. Of course, what caught his eye were the standards of the major sponsors of Xiangnan Satellite TV.
The last time Lin Wen came here, it was for Xiangnan Satellite TV to "purchase movies", and he also wanted to sponsor his own new program. I don't know what he wants to do this time.
After Lin Wen and the others arrived at the reception, Zhang Xueying said sorry to Lin Wen first, and then walked not far away with her sister. It seemed that she wanted to give her sister an audition opportunity.
Lin Wen didn't bother to worry about this. He found a seat where no one was and sat down. He leisurely picked up the champagne on the table and started drinking it.
Lin Wen took the wine glass and scanned the circle carefully, and found that today's reception seemed to be attended by his own people from Xiangnan Satellite TV. Many hosts and leading actresses of its programs also appeared at the scene.
"Tsk, tsk, Hunan Satellite TV really spent a lot of money this time." Lin Wen glanced around and muttered in his heart.
Just as Lin Wen thought, in order to "show off" its strength to its sponsors, Shonan TV called everyone on the stage who could appear on stage.
From the conversations of people around him, Lin Wen learned that this time it was a new variety show on Xiangnan Satellite TV that was seeking investment, so many artists and hosts heard about it.
After all, although Hunan Satellite TV has not had a good reputation in recent years, it has really made a lot of people famous, so everyone wants to join in the fun.
Sponsors have similar ideas. Although many people criticize Shonan Satellite TV, they can't stand it as it becomes more and more popular, so they are also willing to place advertisements on Shonan Satellite TV.
"Have you heard? This time, the exclusive title of Xiangnan Satellite TV starts at 80 million." A man next to Lin Wen said in a low voice.
The man next to him chatted: "Isn't that right? This time, Xiangnan Satellite TV has a really big appetite. One spot starts at 4 million. A small company like ours has no chance at all."
"Isn't that right? Those guys are a little too aggressive in lowering the price."
Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Wen also made a rough judgment in his mind. He felt that Xiangnan Satellite TV wanted to "sit firmly on the Diaoyutai" this time and let the people below make their own bids.
This time, Xiangnan Satellite TV can be said to be very stupid, because the station has produced several hit programs in a row, so the current price of their programs can be said to be rising all the way.
You must know that Shonan Satellite TV is currently the only place where artists want to spend money, which shows their current influence.
Suddenly the man next to him lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the host competition is more cruel this time."
"How do you say that?" another person asked curiously.
The man who spoke before said in a low voice: "Think about it, there are only a few main programs now. I heard that with this new program, not only the old people want to be on it, but also the newcomers who don't want to show their faces, including my niece.
You want to ask me to intercede."
"Good guy, Xiangnan Satellite TV is going to make a fortune again this time." Another man sighed.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Lin Wen did not lament that Xiangnan Satellite TV was really good at ratings. Although it was scolded by countless people, its advertising revenue was not reduced at all.
Lin Wen turned around, picked up his champagne and took a sip. When he turned around, he saw several female hosts whispering there, apparently also "discussing" about the new show.
At present, Shonan Satellite TV is based on seniority and favor. Many newcomers do not have backstage, so don’t think too much about it. And this time, Shonan Satellite TV is said to be launching a new drama, so many artists also want to come and become familiar with them.
Lin Wen guessed that if the time was correct, then the TV series invested by Xiangnan Satellite TV this time would probably be watching Thunderstorm together. Not to mention this local TV series, it provided a lot of material for countless up owners in the future.
Although this is an "open" casting on the surface, all fools know the "doorway" involved. Lin Wen, who has traveled through time, naturally understands better who the protagonist of this casting is.
If nothing else, the heroine of this new drama is Zheng Wushuang, and it is said that Li Ming, the second-in-command of Imperial TV Station, is very "optimistic" about Zheng Wushuang. Although the new drama of Shonan Satellite TV is ostensibly invested by Shonan Province
, but more than half of the protagonists were chosen by the Imperial City, so everyone was well aware of the casting this time.
In his previous life, Lin Wen didn't understand the secrets behind this, but as he grew older and looked at this kind of thing again, there were many secrets in it that he couldn't see before.
For example, the TV series starring Jiang Lai later had a similar situation. Although it was nominally filmed in the capital, 90% of the people in the show spoke the dialect of the imperial capital, which was very confusing.
The funniest thing is that this TV series also sets the story of a native of Magic City going abroad, which looks very funny.
Therefore, if the Zhang Xueying sisters want to get a role in this new drama, it will undoubtedly be difficult for them to get into the sky. It is probably possible to become a supporting actress who is not painful.
However, this time the female supporting cast was probably rounded up by Hunan Satellite TV, so they were destined to return without success.
Sure enough, not long after, the two sisters appeared in front of Lin Wen with a look of despair.
"What's wrong? Didn't get the interview?" Lin Wen deliberately pretended not to know and asked.
Zhang Xueying nodded and said, "Well, the director said we have suitable candidates for the roles we are interested in."
"Oh, haven't you always been in the film industry? Why did you suddenly think of taking on a TV series?" Lin Wen asked.
Zhang Xueying rolled her eyes at Lin Wen and said: "How can a movie be so easy to get? Even for some small-budget movies, there are too many people competing now, and everyone wants to impress. Naturally, it is an endless cycle."
Lin Wen nodded in agreement. The current domestic box office is not as exaggerated as it would be in later generations, so many artists can only accumulate popularity through constant facial recognition.
With the "settlement" of capital, these artists are making money faster after the rise of idol culture.
However, making money is quick, and at the same time, there are many problems exposed. Today's artists are okay, but after a few years, the cultural level of artists will plummet, and all high schools, junior high schools, and even elementary schools will come out.
In this environment, the qualities of some artists are exposed.
Although academic qualifications do not necessarily represent quality, many people become famous after becoming famous. This has led to the continuous emergence of tax evasion problems in later generations, and the relevant departments have to come forward to curb this evil trend.
