Chapter 404: Favors and Initiation(1/2)

"Insidious" has only thirty episodes in total. Based on the broadcast rate of two episodes per day, it will be finished in half a month. Therefore, just two days later, this drama will usher in its final finale, which will greatly increase the ratings.

Reached a new high with 4.55.

Other average ratings also exceeded 3.61, which all proves the popularity of this drama.

Taking this opportunity, Lemon Entertainment is also stepping up negotiations for the second round of copyrights, and it is believed that it will bring considerable profits after the transaction is completed.

After all, the cost of "Insidious" was not high to begin with, and even though the first round of copyright fees was also not that high, the production cost was roughly recovered.

This means that all future income will be classified as net profit.

"Jiang Xiao, can you come back to attend the "Latent" celebration party?"

"The time is squeezed, but it's quite troublesome to go back and forth. As long as you come forward, I won't participate!"

At a certain moment, when he heard Han Jiaren's words on the phone again, Jiang Xiao thought about it for a moment and refused.

Yes, he was on the phone with the former at this time, and the good news about the ratings of "Latent" was also brought by the other party.

"Okay, then I'll go."

The boss Jiang Xiao didn't want to participate, so Han Jiaren naturally wouldn't say anything.

"Okay, by the way, Mr. Han, how are the preparations for "Beijing Love Story" going? Have you set a launch date?"

Just when he thought of this, Jiang Xiao took the initiative to ask some companies about the progress of some projects.

"It's almost ready. We're going to officially start production on June 1st."

"That's good. Hey, Zhao Baogang should have agreed, right?"

It was said that the drama "Beijing Love Story" would be co-operated with Zhao Baogang's company, so Jiang Xiao planned to let him be the producer for a while and keep an eye on Chen Sicheng, who is a new director after all.

He also asked Han Jiaren to talk openly and honestly with Chen Sicheng, and the other party said very humbly that it was no problem and that he was willing to learn from Zhao Baogang.

"Yes, Director Zhao has promised to be the producer. In addition, I will tell you about "Bu Bu Jing Xin". This drama will be shot in the middle of next month. Do you have any other comments? For example

Is there any actor you’d like to recommend? Because we’re about to sign a contract.”

"No, you just have to arrange Li Ying's work. The artists in your company must still be taken care of, and the rest is free!"

Jiang Xiao, who always felt that Han Jiaren was hinting at her "Latent" incident, was also speechless.

"Li Ying has already made arrangements, so do you want Yang Ying to do the same...?"

Han Jiaren continued to ask.

"Oh, it's arranged. Well, Yang Ying won't need it. We'll think about other things after "Running Man" is aired."

After thinking about it, there seemed to be no suitable roles for Tianbao, so he didn't think too much about it, and Jiang Xiao rejected Han Jiaren.

"Okay, there's another thing. I just had an idea during this time about the company's management."

"Mr. Han, what do you think?"

"I just feel that the current business and personnel affairs of the company are a bit confusing. There are movies, TV series, and variety shows. Many times when we are busy, it can easily become a mess. So I thought, could we combine TV series, movies, and variety shows?

They were all separated separately and a new subsidiary was established under Lemon Entertainment."

Recently, "China Partnership" is about to be released, "Beijing Love Story" and "Bu Bu Jing Xin" are about to start shooting, and "Latent" is currently airing, as well as "Three Meals a Day" and "Running Man" which will be aired soon.

》.

As the general manager, Han Jiaren had to ask about it, and he really felt that it was not enough to break it in half, so at this time, he simply proposed the idea of ​​establishing a subsidiary company.

"Establish a separate subsidiary?"

Jiang Xiao, who raised his eyebrows slightly, really didn't expect Han Jiaren to have such an idea.

"Yes, reasonable arrangements and division of labor will be more conducive to the company's future development. Jiang Xiao, do you have any concerns?"

Han Jiaren, who was temporarily confused about Jiang Xiao's thoughts, finally asked the question directly without any detours.

"No, it's good. I agree to this. Mr. Han, please work harder. Once all the projects on hand are taken care of, the corresponding subsidiary will be established."

Jiang Xiao's hesitation is indeed not because he has any opinions, but more because he feels that he has subconsciously ignored some situations.

To put it bluntly, in my memory, he was very unsatisfied. Of course, he could not have any experience in running a company. It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a novice.

Usually he says he controls the overall situation, but in fact he focuses more on the content. This is his advantage of foresight.

As for the specific management of Lemon Entertainment, Han Jiaren is almost entirely responsible for it, otherwise he would be a hands-off shopkeeper when he has time.

Since the other party has now put forward ideas, it is obviously a problem that needs to be solved. It is also correct to establish a subsidiary. When the time comes, there will be corresponding people in charge. Those who should be responsible for film affairs will be responsible for film affairs, and the same is true for TV series and variety shows.

Han Jiaren naturally takes charge of the overall situation at Lemon Entertainment Corporation, and the managers of the subsidiaries are equivalent to the three right-hand assistants. In this way, personnel and business are clear, and each has its own set of operating procedures, so there is no confusion.

Jiang Xiao is definitely not stupid. He can easily think of these things and will naturally agree with this idea.

As for the remaining business, such as artist management, which originally had little scale and no intention of developing and growing, it would be enough to stay in the head office without setting up a separate subsidiary.

"Okay, don't worry, I will take care of it."

Seeing Jiang smile and agree, Han Jiaren naturally felt relaxed as he came up with his idea.

Who wouldn’t want to have a boss who understands and supports him?

"Of course, I believe in Mr. Han's ability. If you need anything, you can always call me."

"Okay, then I won't disturb your filming, bye!"

"bye!"

After each person said a word, Jiang Xiao didn't say anything more and immediately hung up the phone. Just when he was about to hand it over to Dilireba to put it away, another phone call happened to come in. Someone quite unexpected,

Cai Yinong from Tang Ren Film and Television.

An accident was an accident, so he took advantage of the situation and found the answer: "Hi, Mr. Cai, how are you?"

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, I didn't disturb you, did I?"

"No, I don't know what you want from me, Mr. Cai?"

The phone calls were all answered. Isn't it just nonsense to say "don't bother me"? Of course, Jiang Xiao also knew that this was a social courtesy, so he went straight to the point and asked Cai Yinong.

"That's right, I heard Shi Shi say that you are Yang Mi's master, right?"

"Oh, yes, it's just a joke. Yang Mi usually calls me master. When she was filming "Pink Family", she said she wanted to learn acting from me. But in fact, I didn't teach her anything. What's wrong? What's the problem?

?"

Jiang Xiao was really surprised. He didn't expect Cai Yinong to tell him this seemingly irrelevant matter.

"It's like this. Aren't Shi Shi and Yang Mi best friends? Just suggested to me that Yang Mi should also participate in "Jingxin" and play the role of Ruoxi's sister. I just want to ask you.

Any opinion? Of course, I agree in principle."

Without any more beating around the bush, Cai Yinong quickly said what he wanted to say.

"Really? Okay, if it's suitable and Yang Mi is willing to do it, let her act. I don't have any objections. Please take care of it, Mr. Cai!"

Jiang Xiao could tell that the reason why Cai Yinong called him and mentioned that he was Master Yang Mi was because he wanted him to accept a favor.

His last sentence actually showed his attitude and was considered a sign of appreciation. After all, Damimi was not just his simple "female apprentice".

"No trouble, no trouble. They worked well together in "Sword and Sword 3". Yang Mi is also a talented actor. I believe she is suitable."

Not stupid at all, Cai Yinong, who heard the implication, could be considered to have achieved his true purpose, and he couldn't help but smile.

Although Yang Mi is actually an artist under Li Shaoxuan, if possible, she would naturally prefer to gain a favor from Jiang Xiao, who is much more useful than the former and whose value is clear.

"Okay, hey, by the way, Mr. Cai, has the cast of "Step by Step" been decided? Who has been chosen as the male lead?"

Just now, while chatting with Han Jiaren, the company's issues came up. Jiang Xiao didn't have time to ask these questions. At this moment, he could just ask Cai Yinong.

"Most of the actors have been decided. The male lead will be Lu Yilai. Is that okay?"

Hearing this, Cai Yinong didn't hide anything, and slandered Jiang Xiao in his heart. Was this to confirm whether Wu Qilong was still there?

"No problem, I'm just curious. Lu Yi is pretty good."

Jiang Xiao was really surprised to find Lu Yi.

Now that Wu Qilong no longer has this role, it is really a question whether he can still become popular, but it is none of his business...

Well, it seems to be none of his business. If he hadn't mentioned it, it might still have happened to the other party by coincidence.

But Jiang Xiao doesn't care, he has the investment, he makes the decision, don't ask for reasons, Mr. Jiang does the same!

"Mr. Jiang, do you want to listen to the other actors?"

Now that the conversation has ended, it doesn’t matter if we inform our partner Jiang Xiao about the main actors.

"Okay!"

Listen to it, it's okay for Jiang to laugh.

"In addition to Lu Yi, there are also Huo Jianhua as Lao Ba, Wang Kai as Lao Jiu, Yuan Hong as Lao Ten, and Lao Thirteen is played by a newcomer named Lin Genxin, who I just signed, and Liu Songren will play the role of the emperor.

, played by Zhao Liying..."

There were quite a lot of roles, and Cai Yinong only remembered the main ones. You had to look at the cast list to know the rest, so she told everything she remembered.

"Well, it all sounds pretty good."
To be continued...
