Chapter 97 Idea, Unexpected News
Taking into account the situations of the two production teams, Chen Jingyuan decided to stay and oversee the production of "Fighter of the Destiny" for the time being.
Anyway, filming is almost finished, so I'll take charge of the "The Eternal Love" crew after "Fighter of the Destiny" is over.
When they returned to the hotel that evening, Chen Jingyuan and Dilraba shared stories about Chen Keke.
It's perfectly normal for a recent graduate to want to show off.
Chen Jingyuan actually encountered this type of person when he was in school.
Moreover, it seems that there are quite a few people in the entertainment industry who adopt the persona of a rich second generation.
Despite the setbacks, this persona has indeed garnered a lot of attention.
Especially in an era of high salaries, having a wealthy family background might give people the illusion that one doesn't care much about money.
It has attracted a lot of goodwill from netizens and fans!
Of course, the premise is that you don't mess things up; if you do, your persona will easily be ridiculed by the masses.
Given Chen Jingyuan's current circumstances, it's actually possible for Chen Keke to establish this rich princess persona.
The problem is that it's really unnecessary; sometimes the more personas you create, the faster they'll backfire!
He had no intention of getting involved in Chen Keke's argument, since Chen Keke hadn't told him.
Chen Keke herself felt that this was just a small matter, an argument, and there was no burden at all since it happened online.
While Chen Jingyuan and Dilraba were talking, Bai Lu and her best friend were having a heart-to-heart talk in another hotel room.
After a day of filming, Sister Jiang called to check on us.
Bai Lu didn't tell the whole truth, but it's perfectly acceptable to whisper secrets to your best friend.
"I don't know why, but I feel much more at ease when Brother Chen is around."
"On the contrary, I feel a little panicked when Brother Chen isn't around."
Bai Lu did not hide some of the changes in her best friend's heart, including the issues with the "Unrequited Love: Orange Born in Huainan" project.
Ultimately, it all boils down to a lack of self-confidence!
"No one is blaming you for 'Unrequited Love: Orange Born in Huainan'."
"The 'Unrequited Love: Orange Born in Huainan' project was a success; the members of Tianhe Studio were just not satisfied with the results."
Bai Lu's best friend He Handan pointed out her current problems in just a few words.
Or perhaps her fame has grown too quickly, and she's still a bit insecure.
Father, like son!
"Dandan, what should I do?!"
Bai Lu couldn't help but ask her best friend how she should overcome this situation.
"The first way is to overcome it yourself."
"However, there isn't that timeframe; by the time we overcome that, the filming will have already wrapped up."
"The second way is to contact General Manager Chen."
"Chat more on WeChat, and you'll feel more at ease."
"If you have any questions, it's the same to talk to President Chen directly via WeChat than to stand by and talk to him."
"That way you'll have more confidence, and besides, getting closer to President Chen will get you more resources."
He Handan immediately gave Bai Lu two ideas.
Previously, Chen Jingyuan had the contact information for the artists in his studio, but Bai Lu and others dared not disturb them.
After some hesitation, Bai Lu decided to choose the second method.
I started trying to send some messages to Chen Jingyuan on WeChat.
the next day!
Chen Jingyuan looked somewhat surprised when he saw the message Bai Lu sent.
Goodnight, Brother Chen!
It was just a simple message, but it came out of nowhere.
Although Bai Lu had contact with him before, it was mostly intermittent.
They usually talk about serious matters, so this kind of message is quite unexpected.
Chen Jingyuan was unaware of Bai Lu's situation, but still replied politely.
Over the next two days, Bai Lu sent significantly more messages.
"I have a feeling that Bailu might be keeping a diary-like record of her chats?!"
The thought involuntarily surfaced in Chen Jingyuan's mind.
Fortunately, he didn't dwell on Bai Lu's behavior, because Bai Lu's performance was indeed getting better and better.
Based on the information on WeChat, Chen Jingyuan boldly guessed that this might be a way to release inner pressure.
Although it seems a bit strange, it's acceptable as long as it expresses a good state of mind.
The wrap party for "Fighter of the Destiny" has finally concluded after two days of filming, and Chen Wu has already arrived ahead of schedule.
I'll still need to do some interviews then, since I need to maintain my popularity.
Actually, Chen Jingyuan could have done this, but he didn't want it to be exposed.
Chen Wu and Chen Jingyuan sat at a table with the director, assistant director, and others.
However, most of the attention was focused on Chen Wu and the other person.
Chen Wu and Chen Jingyuan ignored the stares and ate and drank as they pleased.
Their relationship goes without saying; they were already quite familiar with each other.
Even when Chen Jingyuan was living in his waterfront mansion in Shanghai, the first person he treated was Chen Wu.
Chen Wu was quite surprised at first, but he understood after Chen Jingyuan explained.
It seems that no one expected Chen Jingyuan to be so accurate in judging stocks.
He didn't doubt Chen Jingyuan's words, after all, a mansion worth more than 200 million was not something an ordinary person could afford.
As for the claim that Chen Jingyuan might have embezzled some funds, that's utter nonsense.
That's such a large sum of money, it's simply impossible!
Even with all the money Chen Jingyuan managed to allocate, it was far from enough.
Moreover, Chen Jingyuan directly presented the stock trading records to them.
Chen Wu himself was not poor, so he was more likely to feel a sense of regret than jealousy.
Chen Jingyuan truly embodies the spirit of youthful promise, which is what he admires most.
"Old Sun has already told me about the Star Awards."
"I agree to the idea of the two companies jointly hosting the event."
Chen Wu and Chen Jingyuan talked about what he and Sun Zhonghuai had discussed before.
The Weibo Night event has been going on for many years, and if the Tencent Video All Star Awards wants to be a match for it, both sides will definitely need to work together.
The details regarding the Tencent Video All Star Awards have been basically finalized.
"Xiao Chen, I don't think you should be so low-key."
Suddenly Chen Wu spoke, his words carrying a hint of persuasion.
These words startled Chen Jingyuan!
"It's very difficult for a person to hide themselves nowadays, after all, we live in the information age."
"Penguin Group is currently the focus of a lot of attention."
"It's bound to be exposed sooner or later, so why not expose it proactively?"
"We might have the upper hand, and your sister's studio is not a problem at all."
"There are so many second-generation directors and celebrities these days, which one of them doesn't have connections?"
Chen Wu's voice continued, his words helping Chen Jingyuan analyze the situation.
It's better to be proactive than to be exposed. As for the studio, he didn't care at all.
As long as it doesn't affect the project's success, what's wrong with favoring some of our own people when casting?
This is perfectly normal!
If Chen Jingyuan were fired for this reason, Alibaba and other film and television companies would probably be laughing all the way to the bank.
"I'll consider it."
Chen Jingyuan spoke slowly, his words not as resolute as they had been at the beginning.
It's clear that he is seriously considering whether to leave the media.
Chen Wu's point is indeed valid; taking the initiative might actually be better.
To avoid being exposed by others, and then not knowing how to comment.
"Old Sun is thinking of making you the president of Tencent Pictures!"
However, Chen Wu then revealed another piece of news.
"How is this possible!?"
Chen Jingyuan exclaimed softly, a hint of disbelief on his face.
The position of president of Tencent Pictures is equivalent to that of a regional warlord within Tencent Group.
To be honest, he was a little surprised to become a vice president, let alone a president.
Not to mention that Tencent Video and Tencent Pictures are linked, so the CEO definitely needs to unify them.
The problem is that Chen Jingyuan overlooked one thing: Sun Zhonghuai also holds the position of Vice President of Tencent Group.
Even if Chen Jingyuan becomes the president of Tencent Pictures, he is still under the management of Sun Zhonghuai.
"Perhaps!"
Chen Wu simply smiled mysteriously and spoke.
He could tell that Old Sun wasn't faking it; it was obvious he intended to help Chen Jingyuan.
When Chen Wu first learned of Lao Sun's idea, he was quite surprised and couldn't help but ask him about it!
"Xiao Chen is capable; he is perfectly capable of being given the position of president."
"Besides, I feel pretty good because I have less to do."
Sun Zhonghuai's words carried a lot of nonchalance, clearly indicating that he had been considering it for a long time.
The two did not discuss the matter further, and Chen Jingyuan also did not pay it any mind.
After the wrap party, Chen Wu returned to Shanghai overnight and did not stay long.
The next day, Dilraba also left Hengdian, needing to go to Yanjing to participate in several activities, followed by the start of filming for "Pretty Li Huizhen".
Chen Jingyuan did not leave immediately, but planned to stay at the filming location of "The Eternal Love" for a while.
I will probably go to the recording site of "Back to Field" sometime after August.
I will stay until the recording is finished, which will be about half a month according to the time.
We may need to communicate with Hunan TV regarding some promotional aspects.
Before they knew it, it was August, and Chen Jingyuan was preparing to leave the film crew for Yanjing.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to tell Jiang Qiumei and the others.
Jiang Qiumei previously traveled between Shanghai and Hengdian, mainly to recruit talent.
He glanced at it and saw that the makeup team had basically been assembled.
There were also nannies, female bodyguards, and other arrangements, all of which were very appropriate.
However, there was one thing that still left Chen Jingyuan with a hint of doubt.
Bai Lu used to send out messages frequently, but now that he's in charge of the "The Eternal Love" drama, he's stopped sending them.
Fortunately, he didn't dwell on the matter too much; he needed to go to Yanjing first to support his mother.
With the outline provided by Chen Jingyuan, the script for "Hello Mr. Billionaire" was quickly completed.
The editor didn't spend many days on it, and Chen Jingyuan also read the script and felt that it roughly reflected the plot.
Once we have the script, the next step is to officially launch the project!
The most important thing next is to get Lanco Studio and Kaixin Mahua to collaborate.
Because Lan Ke Studio doesn't have much brand recognition, it needs Chen Jingyuan's support.
To be honest, Chen Jingyuan is quite famous now.
There's no need to go to the platform in person; a simple phone call might suffice.
"Standing in the spotlight isn't all bad."
Chen Jingyuan murmured softly, his words clearly beginning to waver.
He had thought about it a lot over the past two weeks, but still hadn't made a decision.
