259. Wang Cheng can do whatever he wants! He will appear on the show with Wang Cheng for free!
Chapter 261 259. Wang Cheng can do whatever he wants! He will appear on the show with Wang Cheng for free!
As Li Guang's direct leader, Huang Jianghe didn't know what to say at this time!
Musicians on this show.
They almost gave up and let the sheep herd.
Even if Dragon TV spends money to build a bridge of exchanges between domestic and foreign music and art schools and contributes to the development of national music and art, and can apply for some subsidies from above, overall it will not lose much.
but……
It took a lot of effort to invite Wang Cheng, but it cost a whopping 90 million!
As a result, Wang Cheng was allowed to participate in this show that they had already given up?
Huang Jianghe took two deep breaths and was silent for a few seconds before saying, "Can we still discuss it with Rubik's Cube Entertainment? There is no potential for any further investment in the musician program!"
Li Guang smiled bitterly: "I asked Shen Shenghui, the artist director of Rubik's Cube Entertainment, to discuss it. It's unlikely. Rubik's Cube Entertainment still has conflicts with Wang Cheng. They won't give us a choice..."
Huang Jianghe remained helplessly silent for another two seconds, and then asked: "Then can we refuse this cooperation with Wang Cheng?"
As a leader, Huang Jianghe wanted to stop losses.
I don't want to waste this money.
Ninety million yuan is a lot of money for Dragon TV in Shanghai.
If it were other entertaining programs, let alone 90 million, if Wang Cheng asked for 100 million, they would not hesitate.
Because if there is an entertaining program, there is still potential. After inviting Wang Cheng to lead a wave of popularity, and then change it on the original basis, it will have great development prospects.
But……
This musician is a group of teachers and students from famous classical music and art schools who communicate and play classical music together. Most people will feel drowsy and bored after listening to it.
The format of the program is there. Even if Wang Cheng's arrival can bring about temporary popularity, the ratings will not be too high. It would be a miracle if it can pass three, and there will be no development potential in the future!
This money was simply wasted.
Li Guang replied: "Of course I can refuse. After all, I haven't signed the contract yet and I can refuse at any time. However, Mr. Huang, if he refused to cooperate with Wang Cheng this time, will he still have a chance next time? Rubik's Cube Entertainment and Wang Cheng both If you don’t see our sincerity, will you still be willing to cooperate with us in the future?”
"Can we still invite Wang Cheng to join our new project?"
A few questions down.
Huang Jianghe was silent again.
Today, he was silent too much.
Because this choice is really difficult.
After being silent for a few more seconds, Huang Jianghe said helplessly: "Okay, so be it! Let's keep this matter as low-key as possible in the station, so there is no need to waste resources on publicity and hype!"
From Huang Jianghe's point of view, this is a classical art program with no hope or future. Since Wang Cheng's 90 million advertising fee cannot stop the loss, then he should stop the loss as much as possible in other aspects.
You can save on publicity fees, public relations fees, etc. if you can.
Li Guang smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, I understand, I will personally follow up on this cooperation project."
Huang Jianghe: "Well, you are fully responsible. I am very relieved. I will try my best to build a relationship with Wang Cheng. If we can invite him to join our program next time, then this investment will not be considered a loss."
Li Guang: "Okay!"
hang up the phone.
Huang Jianghe muttered to himself dejectedly: "This time, the legendary law that guarantees the ratings of Wang Cheng's program will exceed four, may be broken!"
For such a classical art program, he really didn't believe that Wang Cheng could bring this program to a rating of more than four points.
The audience is too small.
The audience is smaller than the original culture.
After all, Culture Central Plains still tells traditional domestic cultural stories that everyone is familiar with, and they can stay after reading them.
However, the variety show Musicians performs all internationally famous classical music pieces, which many people are completely unaware of.
After all, classical music has receded into the background for nearly a century.
After the development of popular music, movies and television, who still listens to classical music performances?
Moreover, the classical music exchange programs that musicians attend at several prestigious schools at home and abroad are all, without exception, famous works composed by foreign composers. The general domestic audience is even less receptive, and may even be said to have no interest.
so!
Huang Jianghe was not optimistic about the ratings of Wang Cheng's show at all.
Wang Cheng could interpret the cultural stories of the Central Plains through dance, play with flowers, and even write a knight's poem on the spot, which amazed hundreds of millions of people across the country.
but……
In the field of classical music, Wang Cheng may not even understand it.
How is it possible to have ratings?
Huang Jianghe looked at the news about Wenhua Zhongyuan flashing on the computer page in front of him, feeling envious in his heart.
He also has some inside information.
After Penguin Video was launched on Wenhua Zhongyuan, it has only been played for more than ten hours, and the cumulative views have exceeded 200 million. The popularity is no less than that of Country Life last time.
This makes the entire TV industry jealous.
Including Huang Jianghe, the eyes are slightly red at this time.
…………
After Li Guang ended the call with his leader Huang Jianghe, he quickly came to the musician's program team office.
At this time, the program team is discussing the recording of the next episode.
Many episodes have been recorded, and the program team has its own fixed process. The next episode will just follow...
Li Guang's sudden visit surprised the program director Zhao Donghu, deputy director Gu Jun, and producer Hu Xiaoshan!
Several people stood up and shook hands with Li Guang.
"Director Li came here suddenly, what's the matter?"
Producer Hu Xiaoshan asked curiously.
Their program group has been independent and fending for a long time, and they are used to doing their own thing, so the station gives them complete freedom.
Li Guang looked at Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu and said seriously: "When will your next program be recorded?"
Zhao Donghu immediately replied: "Tomorrow, I have contacted the teacher and student judges from several colleges and universities to participate in the recording. What arrangements does Director Li have for the recording tomorrow morning?"
Li Guang nodded: "I would like to arrange for a guest to join the recording of your program tomorrow and serve as a special guest for one episode."
Several heads of the musician program group in the office looked at each other a little, as if they were not sure if they heard correctly...
Unexpectedly, someone took the initiative to join the recording of their program and serve as a guest for one episode?
This matter.
They haven't met each other since the show started airing.
Because, their program wants ratings but not ratings, and wants topicality but not topicality!
No one watched or paid attention to it at all.
Who would come to participate in such a program?
unless.
Are they from several other ordinary music and art colleges that are not eligible to participate? They don’t have the strength to participate, so they go through the back door?
Producer Hu Xiaoshan frowned slightly, looked at Li Guang and said: "Director Li, who is it? Although our program has little ratings and popularity, our competition rules are absolutely fair and open, and we cannot insert anyone casually."
Hu Xiaoshan is the producer of the musician program group. He is a graduate of Magic Music, so he has a true love for classical music and art. He also took the lead in establishing this program.
Li Guang shook his head and said: "It's not teachers and students from other schools who come to join the team, but a young star artist who simply participates in a program recording, serves as a guest, and leaves after the recording is over!"
Hu Xiaoshan and others breathed a sigh of relief.
Assistant director Gu Jun asked: "Who is it?"
Li Guang: "Wang Cheng!"
Wang Cheng?
They searched and found that there was no such a young performer in any of the colleges they were familiar with.
They all breathed a sigh of relief...
but!
This name seems familiar?
After the three of them looked confused for a moment, their expressions all changed at the same time.
Producer Hu Xiaoshan and director Zhao Donghu stood up together, staring at Li Guang with wide eyes.
Zhao Donghu asked in disbelief: "Director Li, are you kidding us? Is it really Wang Cheng? The Wang Cheng who wrote Humble House Inscription and Xia Ke Xing? The Wang Cheng who composed and sang Chinese Kung Fu, Nunchaku, and Dragon Fist
Wang Cheng? Which Wang Cheng played the General's Order?"
obviously!
They all know Wang Cheng's deeds very well.
Even though they are mentally prepared to be hidden together with the musicians as a program group, they are always paying attention to the development trends of the entertainment industry.
There is no doubt that Wang Cheng has occupied most of the attention in the entire entertainment industry in recent months.
No matter who it is, it is difficult not to know Wang Cheng.
It's impossible not to hear Wang Cheng's songs, because Wang Cheng's songs are played everywhere in the streets.
It’s impossible not to know Wang Cheng’s Inscription on the Humble House and Xia Ke Xing, because analysis of these two works and calligraphy can be seen everywhere on many social platforms.
only……
They never dreamed of it.
I actually have the opportunity to cooperate with Wang Cheng?
Wang Cheng is actually willing to join their program, which has no entertainment or ratings popularity?
The three of them all stared at Li Guang, looking forward to Li Guang's answer.
Li Guang's answer did not disappoint them. He nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, it's the Wang Cheng who walked out of our Eastern Star stage. We invited him to come to the stage to record a program, and the agency Rubik's Cube Entertainment chose him.
You musicians show!”
The three of them got an affirmative answer, and their moods were extremely complicated for a moment. Their expressions changed rapidly, and they were happy, confused, and worried at the same time!
Producer Hu Xiaoshan asked: "How much is Wang Cheng's announcement fee?"
Li Guang: "Ninety million!"
The three people's eyes widened again in an instant, and Hu Xiaoshan's voice became weird: "Issue one?"
Li Guang nodded: "Yes, 90 million per issue!"
hiss……
call……
hiss……
The three of them gasped at the same time.
From the establishment of their program to the present, they have invited hundreds of teachers and students, and the total advertising fees for all of them are far less than 90 million.
The single-issue announcement fee for Wang Cheng to join their program is as high as 90 million.
This simply exceeds their understanding of the entertainment industry.
The excitement in the hearts of the three people because of Wang Cheng's arrival disappeared instantly, leaving only huge pressure.
These 90 million are like a mountain pressing down.
If this program is messed up and has no effect...
Then they may really have no future in the rest of their lives.
The three of them fell silent for a moment. They wanted to refuse, but they couldn't say anything. They didn't know what to say for a while.
Li Guang stepped forward and patted Hu Xiaoshan and Zhao Donghu on the shoulders. Knowing their pressure and general thoughts, he comforted them: "Don't think too much, just record this episode normally. There is no hope in the station, just
I just want to cooperate with Wang Cheng once, the result is not important."
Hu Xiaoshan smiled bitterly and said: "That's Wang Cheng. It is said in the circle that with Wang Cheng, the ratings are guaranteed to exceed four points. Rural TV and Wenhua Zhongyuan have proven this. If we can't do it, what will we do then?
?”
Zhao Donghu and Gu Jun both nodded in agreement.
Their family members knew about their own affairs and did not believe that their program could reach a ratings of more than 4 points, even if Wang Cheng came.
Li Guang: "It's okay. The station's expectations are not high. We just want to use this cooperation to build a good relationship with Wang Cheng and pave the way for the next cooperation. Therefore, it doesn't matter how high the ratings are, as long as it can exceed two points at most, it is enough."
, if it can pass three o'clock, it will exceed expectations! Don't be stressed, just record normally."
Hearing Li Guang's words, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Although they have never reached the two-point rating, but with Wang Cheng's popularity, it shouldn't be a big problem if the peak reaches two points, right?
Zhao Donghu: "Then let's try our best! When will Wang Cheng come over?"
Li Guang: "Let's do it tomorrow. His get off work and rest schedule is very punctual. You can cooperate with him then."
Commute to and from get off work on time...
The three of them had known about this for a long time and had complained about it a little before. Unexpectedly, they would soon experience Wang Cheng's commuting time.
Hu Xiaoshan: "Okay, we will cooperate!"
Li Guang nodded: "Okay, then you can continue to discuss it. The program can be recorded normally, and Wang Cheng can be a normal special guest. Remember, you must cooperate with Wang Cheng during the program recording. He can do whatever he wants.
Whatever you do, don't conflict with him! Otherwise, I may not be able to protect you by then."
"The most important thing for spending so much money to invite Wang Cheng here this time is to lay a good foundation for our relationship with him and pave the way for next cooperation. Therefore, we must not have any conflicts with him."
The three of them smiled bitterly after hearing this.
It feels like a great emperor is here this time!
No one in the entire Dragon TV dares to offend the Supreme Emperor...
But.
As TV professionals, they also understand the painstaking effort that the station put into doing this.
Nothing more than that.
Wenhua Zhongyuan's ratings of 4.95 are so eye-catching.
…………
Wang Cheng took a rare rest and was in a good mood.
If there was no follower like Lin Mi, he would be in a better mood.
After Qin Yuhai, Shen Shenghui and others left.
Lin Mi still didn't leave, and continued to sit in Wang Cheng's dormitory quietly scrolling through his phone and reading e-books without saying anything or making a sound.
Until, Wang Cheng went out for lunch.
Lin Micai followed him out and said worriedly: "Wang Cheng, many people in the industry say you are too famous!"
Wang Cheng ignored it and didn't care about it. He went to a familiar restaurant and ordered a vegetarian dish, a bowl of soup and a bowl of rice. The meal was extremely light.
Lin Mi was a little surprised by Wang Cheng's diet. The food was lighter than what her grandparents ate. She immediately ordered a bowl of rice and meat and vegetables and sat across from Wang Cheng to eat. She asked curiously: "Wang Cheng, what are you doing?"
Why don’t you eat some meat?”
Wang Cheng completely ignored Lin Mi, as if he didn't exist, and ate his own food.
Lin Mi felt helpless, but believed that she could persevere.
But……
Wang Cheng finished eating first, then got up and went back to the dormitory, ready to go back and take a nap.
Lin Mi wanted to follow him directly, but seeing that Wang Cheng had eaten all the food and a bowl of soup, he didn't want to waste it immediately and sat down to continue eating.
Then, when Lin Mi came to Wang Cheng's dormitory after dinner, she couldn't get in...
Knocked lightly on the door, no response!
Lin Mi was a little helpless, then sat down at Wang Cheng's door and started working on her mobile phone. She sent the video of her interview with Wang Cheng in the morning to her colleagues and asked them to edit it for post-production, then upload it to her own account, and then started again
Follow Wang Cheng’s news.
I saw several popular articles analyzing Xiake Xing, so I quickly clicked on them and took a look. Only then did I realize that Wang Cheng’s Xia Ke Xing used so many allusions and was extremely consistent with the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. This made Lin Mi feel even more excited.
admire.
time flies……
Wang Cheng got up from his nap and read in the dormitory all afternoon without leaving the house until it was time for dinner.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Lin Mi sitting on the bench at the door...
Lin Mi quickly stood up and smiled at Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, it's dinner time, shall we finish the meal together?"
Wang Cheng still ignored Lin Mi and went to the restaurant again. His dinner was still rice and a bowl of soup.
Lin Mi sat opposite Wang Cheng and ordered exactly the same thing. She ate quietly with Wang Cheng and glanced at Wang Cheng from time to time, her eyes full of admiration and admiration.
She knew that even if Wang Cheng had no other literary works in the future, just the inscription on the humble house and the chivalrous line would be enough to leave a name in history and be remembered by future generations forever.
After dinner!
Wang Cheng was about to leave when the phone rang.
However, he didn't answer.
Throughout the day today, there were calls on his phone every minute, so he turned it on silent when he was in the dormitory.
After dinner, take a walk!
There was still someone beside Wang Cheng, but it was not Han Xiao, but Lin Mi.
Lin Mi was also talking non-stop, but what she was talking about was not the gossip in the circle, but talking to Wang Cheng about Wang Cheng's works, the inscriptions on the humble house, Xia Ke Xing, and calligraphy.
Although, Wang Cheng never said a word throughout the whole process.
However, Lin Mi still said that she was very happy. Even if Wang Cheng ignored her, she would still be happy as long as she stayed with Wang Cheng.
When he returned to the apartment dormitory, Shen Shenghui had been waiting at the door for a long time, along with Li Guang!
"Wang Cheng, you have to work tomorrow..."
Shen Shenghui looked at Wang Cheng and spoke first.
Li Guang stepped forward and extended his hand to Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, I am very happy to cooperate with you again. I hope our cooperation will be happy and smooth this time!"
Wang Cheng reached out and shook Li Guang's hand gently, and then asked calmly: "When?"
Li Guang: "Tomorrow morning, I will personally pick you up by car in Taili."
Wang Cheng hummed and walked directly into the apartment dormitory.
Li Guang: "Wang Cheng, don't you want to know what the show is?"
Wang Cheng didn't answer, and walked into the dormitory slowly and rhythmically as before, showing no interest in any of this.
Li Guang was helpless. Wang Cheng didn't want to know, but he wanted to make it clear. He immediately said: "This is a classical music and art program. You have to be mentally prepared."
Wang Cheng still didn't answer and had already gone upstairs.
Li Guang looked helpless and did not follow. He turned around and smiled at Lin Mi, then said to Shen Shenghui: "Director Shen, now that it's confirmed, can we make it official?"
Shen Shenghui smiled and said: "The news may have spread! I just received calls from several artists in the company, and they all want to join your musician program group!"
Li Guang smiled bitterly: "We don't have any more advertising fees to invite others."
The station already wants to cut its losses, but it has not given any publicity and public relations expenses to the musician program team, and it is even less likely to give money to invite other celebrity artists.
Shen Shenghui shook his head: "They said it's free..."
Is it free?
Li Guang once again felt Wang Cheng's charm personally.
Lin Mi, who was next to him, did not leave immediately. He listened to the conversation between the two and turned around to leave after knowing the information he wanted to know.
After Li Guang quickly announced the news, sure enough, the phone started ringing immediately.
