Chapter 198 Defeat, Finals
Chapter 198 Defeat, Finals
At 3 p.m., Tian Xiwei and the others began to return.
Chen Keke packed her luggage and returned to school, instead of staying at home any longer.
Neither Liu Yulan nor Chen Jingyuan stopped her, as Chen Keke needed to go to school anyway.
The dormitory conditions at the Shanghai Theatre Academy are actually not bad; it's hardly a hardship.
Moreover, living in a dormitory can actually increase the bond between roommates.
"Jingyuan, if there are any roles you'd like to consider, we should consider Sun Yiran and the others."
Before leaving, Liu Yulan made sure to give some special instructions.
This sentence made Sun Yiran and Zhang Yaqin ecstatic.
They don't have the same ambition as Wang Churan; having supporting roles is quite good too.
As long as their work generates enough buzz, simply showing their faces can help them accumulate some popularity.
You can become a star just by going with the flow, even if you're an unknown.
Earning ten million a year may be hopeless, but earning a million a year is still very possible.
"The casting for Tencent Penguin Pictures' big-budget drama 'Joy of Life' will be held in December next year."
"You should give it a try!"
Chen Jingyuan still gave him face and spoke up.
The historical drama "Joy of Life" requires a lot of roles.
There's absolutely no problem with casting a supporting character.
Although he intended to arrange for artists from Lanco Entertainment Company to participate in this film.
The problem was that the timing conflicted; filming for "Better Days" was scheduled to begin around that time.
While "Joy of Life" can certainly generate a lot of buzz, the movie is still a priority.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
However, after Wang Juan pleaded with him repeatedly, he finally had no choice but to agree.
There are only two days left until the finals!
The final of "Produce 101" is scheduled for December 1st, which is a little earlier than the Tencent Video All Star Awards.
Fortunately, the venue was set up in the suburbs of Shanghai, making it relatively convenient to get there and back.
Southeast Tiger's new work is here, updated first across the entire network!
This popular variety show still attracted a lot of attention, and Liu Yulan even got some final tickets from Chen Jingyuan to distribute to company employees.
It is said that an employee asked Liu Yulan, and one of her younger sisters was a fan of one of the talent shows.
The finale of "Produce 101" was not sold to the public. Tickets were either given away through a lottery on Tencent Video or by fan clubs and fan sites.
Some votes were distributed to partner media sponsors, and others were votes cast internally by companies like Chen Jingyuan.
As the president of Tencent Penguin Pictures, and also the producer of this program.
Tickets were definitely plentiful, so Chen Jingyuan arranged them for his mother.
Actually, Chen Keke was quite interested in the tickets to the finals, but in the end she decided against it.
The main problem is that she didn't mention it beforehand; otherwise, the production team could have easily arranged a guest's seat for her.
Time quickly came to the day of the finals, and Wang Juan, as the person directly in charge, was still very busy.
The finals are broadcast live, so any problems could have a significant impact on the entire program.
Chen Jingyuan did not delay Wang Juan's time, but arrived directly with his driver and assistant.
He doesn't even need a pass; Chen Jingyuan's face is the biggest pass he can get around.
"Mr. Chen!"
"Mr. Chen!"
...
Many staff members greeted Chen Jingyuan when they saw him.
Chen Jingyuan's appearance was not unexpected, as it's not unusual for the CEO to pay attention to the show at the very end.
Chen Jingyuan only needs to announce the shortlisted candidates; if he doesn't attend, this part is left to the guests.
For Chen Jingyuan, he is mostly an audience member.
Chen Jingyuan first went to the guest lounge, where many guests had already arrived.
Huang Bai, Hou Peiqin, Chen Jiayue, Hu Yanbing and other big-name stars.
"Mr. Chen!"
"Mr. Chen!"
...
However, these big-name celebrities immediately perked up after seeing Chen Jingyuan.
The room was filled with stars; none of them were below the second tier.
However, he dared not act like a big shot in front of Chen Jingyuan!
It would be easy for Tencent to blacklist a celebrity.
After all, as long as a sufficient price is offered, it is enough to make other capital groups compromise.
For example, if Chen Jingyuan wanted to blacklist someone, he would promise to collaborate with Alibaba Pictures on their next film.
As long as this person doesn't have any major connections, Alibaba Pictures would probably be quite willing to do it.
Chen Jingyuan's film projects still hold great appeal.
At least breaking even shouldn't be a problem; how much profit you make depends on luck.
It's no longer possible to keep Chen Jingyuan's past predictions and optimism about certain movies a secret.
Many people attribute it to Chen Jingyuan's ability and vision.
Many companies have wanted to invest in Lanco Entertainment's "Better Days" project for a long time.
After exchanging ideas with several familiar celebrities, Chen Jingyuan went to check out the players' lounge.
There are 22 people in total today, and we need to select the final 11!
It's quite cruel for some contestants, but that's just how talent shows are.
Compared to the hundreds of thousands of people who applied for the audition in South Korea, it's already quite good that only a dozen or so people were selected in the end.
"Mr. Chen!"
Many contestants immediately recognized Chen Jingyuan.
Strictly speaking, they didn't actually meet Chen Jingyuan; they only met him once before the recording.
But that time it was more of a fleeting encounter, and there were restrictions imposed by the director.
They never expected that their next meeting would be during the finals; they thought President Chen would come a few more times.
Unfortunately, it seems that Mr. Chen doesn't have this idea!
To be honest, many contestants were a bit disappointed. If President Chen had stayed longer, they might have had a better chance.
If I could catch President Chen's eye, my career might take off immediately.
Unfortunately, there seems to be no information at present indicating that Chen Jingyuan has taken a liking to anyone.
It's inevitable that some people still harbor some resentment towards Chen Jingyuan.
The main reason is that Chen Jingyuan is too innocent; even giving him a chance would be helpful.
"Give it your all in tonight's finals."
"Even if you fail to debut, you can consider becoming a video blogger."
...
Chen Jingyuan spoke gently, saying, "Since you've come all this way, I'll just give you some pointers."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen!"
The contestants weren't fools, and their expressions quickly turned serious.
The story of Mr. Chen's Midas touch has been widely circulated for a while now; short video bloggers can take a look at it.
Maybe we'll be able to use it someday!
If these unsuccessful candidates squeeze into the short video field and have some unique features...
There is still a good chance to become an internet celebrity.
Short videos are about to explode, and there aren't too many people entering this field yet.
Among the contestants, Yang Chaoyue is the one who wants to thank Chen Jingyuan the most.
The reason is simple: Yang Chaoyue received a lot of preferential treatment both before and after he became famous.
At first, Yang Chaoyue was a little confused and puzzled.
Until one day she had a chance to ask the program director, the director did not hide anything.
It turns out that President Chen looked at his own information and thought there was a nice contrast.
I was the one who was selected and received special treatment from the production team.
Yang Chaoyue actually really wanted to thank Chen Jingyuan.
Unfortunately, Chen Jingyuan never came to the show, which has led to this situation until now.
The problem is that Yang Chaoyue can't speak out right now because it's the finals.
If I thank you now without knowing the truth, people will think there's some inside story.
The best approach is to wait for the next opportunity!
Yang Chaoyue wasn't stupid; she understood this principle.
Chen Jingyuan was unaware of Yang Chaoyue's thoughts; he chose Yang Chaoyue simply because he thought she was more popular.
Before its rebirth, its brand recognition had already been validated by the market, so it didn't need to take any detours.
Chen Jingyuan did not disturb the 22 contestants for too long, but went to the dressing room instead.
Makeup is essential for appearing on camera, and even Chen Jingyuan doesn't want to be outshone.
He has relatively ample time; he just needs to show up at the last minute.
There's no need to rush!
This was Chen Jingyuan's first time on a TV show, and because the invitation came late, there was no publicity.
Wang Juan clearly intended to give the audience a surprise!
Chen Jingyuan's appearance is enough to easily secure a trending topic!
