Kong Xue looked at the various cooperations that were coming in like a snowflake, and couldn't help but sigh: "It only took four short years."
Su Ze shook his head, somewhat disapproving of it. To be fair, he had no idea about the so-called first and second lines. Is there any specific standard?
"From now on, we will offer a direct quotation of 10 million for the film remuneration!" Kong Xue knew that Su Ze disapproved of it, so he didn't need to worry about this kind of thing. As long as he acted well, everything else was trivial.
The reason why we say it is first-tier treatment, not first-tier star, is mainly because the time to become famous is too short.
Although there are not many seniority rankings in the entertainment industry, they definitely exist. Especially the higher you climb up, the more important it becomes. There are only so many positions in the pyramid. Who will be squeezed down when you go up?
There is no simple person who has been popular for more than ten years. The forces behind him are intricate and complicated. Many of them are not worthy of outsiders' recognition. Many of them are not public at ordinary times. Only when you encounter something can you realize how deep their connections are.
If it were an idol idol, Kong Xue would definitely not be so relaxed and comfortable. No matter how popular he is, it is still a false fire. Without the support of his works, it will soon pass. This is why capital is squeezing it so hard.
Su Ze is different. Since his debut, every work he has produced has been very stable. In just three years, he has made three movies and three TV series, achieving remarkable results.
The debut film A Spoon won the Golden Rooster Best Newcomer, My Sister has a box office of over 1 billion, and The Invisible Guest is an investment miracle.
The popular psychological crime series has been promoted to the third tier, the popular White Night Chase has been promoted to the second tier, and now the silent truth is even more popular. To put it bluntly:
Unrivaled young actors!
Not even Qianxi!
The reason why Brother Hu is so popular among the public is because of his national masterpieces, Sword and Fairy and Nirvana in Fire. Sun Honglei’s ability to surpass a group of veteran actors is not because of his conquests and lurking.
The former is in the field of ancient costumes, and the latter is in the spy genre. They have already formed brand appeal, so they can go smoothly. Now Su Ze is the same.
In the field of suspense and reasoning, he is invincible!
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Su Ze stops filming in the future, as long as he does not commit suicide, it will be easy for him to rest on his laurels for five or even ten years.
Look at Sha Yi and Wulin Gaiden Bai Zhantang who have reaped the dividends for twenty years!
Of course, now that you are transforming into a comedian, your exposure must be maintained, which is another matter.
Is Su Ze someone who rests on his laurels?
Thinking of this, Kong Xue took out two pieces of information and said: "Two top magazines are vying for an appointment for the October cover. You choose one."
Seeing Su Ze frowning, he smiled and said: "Choose whatever you want, don't worry about offending anyone, now we have the confidence!"
There was no way around it, this kind of thing was inevitable. Su Ze was used to it. Fortunately, it was all top issues. He gritted his teeth and finished it in half a day, forgetting about other minor issues.
"Adidas wants you to endorse a sneaker. Here is the information."
“De Beers wants to talk about cooperation, but it’s just a luxury jewelry item.”
"LV also has intention to cooperate"
Su Ze flipped through the information and handed it all to the studio for processing. Anyway, the man only had a few big things, so he had to get it done quickly.
"By the way, the Golden Eagle Awards will open next month." Kong Xue put away the information and said seemingly unintentionally: "White Night has been shortlisted for four nominations, including Best Actor and Most Popular Actor."
"Golden Eagle?" Su Ze was stunned, could it be the Golden Eagle?
"What's your expression?" Kong Xue scolded with a smile: "Who are you looking down on!"
"What happened to the Magnolia Award, Feitian Award, and Golden Eagle Award, the three major awards for domestic TV series?"
"Shidi!"
Su Ze pouted, "Okay, okay, as long as you're happy."
"Let's get down to business!" Kong Xue said seriously: "We have a high chance of winning the Golden Eagle this time."
"Both major categories are shortlisted, especially for Best Actor. We must work hard to win."
Su Ze was noncommittal. The three major film awards must know it. Magnolia Flying is okay, but as for the Golden Eagle?
Starting from the moment Li Yifeng defeated He Bing...
Collapse!
He Bing, Yu Hewei's Military Advisor Alliance, Sun Weimin's Haitang Yiyi, Liu Yunlong's Kite, Zhang Jiayi's Bailuyuan...
Relying on the mahjong who does the whole dubbing?
"Can I not participate?" Su Ze said seriously: "I really don't want to go!"
"This?" Kong Xue didn't expect Su Ze to react so strongly, and suddenly thought of something: "Your goal is to fly to the sky?"
"That's right. Magnolia will award the award next year. There is no chance this year. Feitian will announce the shortlist in November. What do you mean?"
"I don't mean anything!" Su Ze interrupted: "If it's Magnolia or Feitian, it doesn't matter even if it's shortlisted and doesn't win, but the Golden Eagle..."
“I don’t want to go!”
Kong Xue was instantly confused. It was expected that this guy would despise the Golden Eagle, but he didn’t even want to go?
"You still have to go. After all, two heavyweights have been shortlisted and four nominations have been officially announced. If you don't go, you will be in trouble."
"What's more, White Night Chaser is also shortlisted for Best Original Screenplay and Best Director. Wang Wei of Five Hundred will definitely go, so..."
Su Ze sighed. Although he was helpless, there was nothing he could do. After all, success was not his alone, so he could only nod.
"Although the Golden Eagle is low-profile, it attracts a lot of attention." Kong Xue persuaded: "The Flying Magnolia is good, but its traffic volume is definitely not as good as that of the Golden Eagle, regardless of scale or influence..."
Su Ze all understands that, in all fairness, the Feitian Award is the most valuable, just look at who holds it.
Modu City Government, State Broadcasting Administration, CCTV!
Then there is the Magnolia Award. The professionalism is not bad, but it is a pity that many actors miss the opportunity once every two years. The timeliness is not comparable to that of flying once a year.
The original intention is to encourage excellent works and inspire actors in the industry, so why do you have to wait two years?
It takes ten years to sharpen a sword without showing off?
In fact, Su Ze also knows that any award is judged by humans, not by machines that are absolutely objective and fair. It is inevitable that the consensus will be difficult to agree on.
Therefore, everything from the Oscars to the three major European film festivals is still full of subjectivity of judges and off-site public relations. As long as the results can be generally justified and convinced by most people.
In other words, deviations such as 90 points beating 95 points and 85 points beating 90 points are completely acceptable and inevitable for any award.
In the past, various controversies at the Feitian Awards, Golden Rooster Awards, and Magnolia Awards originated from this. The winner may not necessarily be the best among the nominees, but no one can deny that it is indeed an outstanding performance in itself.
In the Magnolia Awards in 2013, Song Jia won Sun Li's Legend of Zhen Huan with Cliff, and Xiao Hong won against Zhang Ziyi and Yan Bingyan in Golden Rooster Awards. It was indeed controversial at the time and surprised many people.
However, although The Legend of Zhen Huan has a great influence, Sun Li did dub the whole process. As for Zhang Ziyi and Yan Bingyan, both of whom have won the Golden Rooster Best Actress, the requirements for professional awards are generally high for the second one, so I can barely get by.
The only thing that everyone can't tolerate is 70 points beating 90 points, and even the winner's 60 points are not worth it.
The kind of selection that is purely self-deceiving and treats the public as nothing: such as the Best Supporting Actor and Actor at the 2016 Hundred Flowers Awards, and the male and female double winners at the 2018 Golden Eagle Awards.
