Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

[Accidental Mark Chapter 20]

Pei Shaoze returned to the company in the afternoon and immediately held a small meeting with someone from the Propaganda Department. People in the Tianxuan Propaganda Department didn't look pretty when they received the news of the meeting, because President Pei's order seemed to mean two words-overtime.

The copyright team and the legal team were so busy with the bald scenes they were watching. The new official has three fires. I don't know what kind of fire will President Pei set off in the Propaganda Department this time?

Everyone walked into the conference room nervously. However, unexpectedly, the meeting time for Pei Shaoze was very short, and the task he explained was quite easy: "The company decided to set up a project for the filming of the novel "Folding Paper", and the General Administration has already approved it. For the record. Go back and hurry up to write a few drafts and post publicity on major websites."

Manager Liu of the Propaganda Department asked: "Just post the propaganda on major websites? Do you need to buy headlines or hot searches?"

Pei Shaoze said decisively: "You don't need to buy it. Try to contact the original author to see if the author is willing to join the script adaptation or participate in the audition. It is best to cooperate with us to forward the crew news and let the book fans know about this."

Manager Liu asked: "Will this audition be a national audition, or a small cut?"

Pei Shaoze handed him a plan: "No audition, only six important roles will be selected. Post recruitment notices on the major artist websites in the circle. This show needs more than 20 actors to be grouped. Welcome and interested. Of actors join."

The entire meeting quickly ended within fifteen minutes, Pei Shaoze clearly stated the propaganda plan and let everyone work as planned. The colleagues in the Propaganda Department were a little confused after the meeting. Although everyone admired President Pei's clean and tidy work style, the publicity investment of this play...is it too shabby?

Do not buy hot search, do not find major film and television bloggers to brag about marketing, do not even look for the navy who scoring points? It's like sending a press release to tell netizens "Hello everyone, I'm going to make a drama", and then silently start filming?

People in the Propaganda Department quickly concluded: "President Pei may not have enough money!" "The company stipulates that the group investment should not exceed 10 million yuan, but 10 million yuan is more than enough for a web drama? Are you reluctant to spend some promotional expenses?" "Mr Pei obviously wants to cast a play to test the waters. There is really no need to promote this kind of campus theme that will hit the street at the first hearing?"

Pei Shaoze is not in a hurry.

Are there few dramas that auditioned for the last hot search, the last hot search after booting, and the makeup and the hot search every day? Too much anticipation for the audience, hot search every day and the screen, the final shot is not satisfactory will only cause backlash. It's better to take the drama seriously, first make the quality of the drama good, and then surprise everyone after the well-made drama is released.

As a director system, he must plan the use of all funds as a whole, and spend as much money as possible. There is no need to spend too much on the initial publicity fee. The so-called publicity is to tell everyone "we are going to make this drama".

After arranging the promotion, Pei Shaoze followed the company process to get financial allocations. The next day, he met with Liu Xueyi and Xu Moran to chat in detail about the next plan.

Liu Xueyi brings a team. The service team of the upper drama and the photographer and lighting engineer can directly call in to continue their cooperation. Pei Shaoze personally acts as the producer, and then finds some staff who do errands, and the crew of their crew is formed.

Today was a meeting for the creators of this play, so Liu Xueyi asked each item in detail.

"In terms of music, what does President Pei plan to do? Directly find a few nice songs to pay for the copyright?" Most low-cost online dramas don't have their own original music. Pick some suitable songs and pay the copyright for the opening and ending credits. This is more economical.

"Since we are taking the boutique route, let's still original music." Pei Shaoze thought for a while, and then said: "I will tell Chen Yijun to help her write a theme song. As for the episodes in the play, we can find professional music studios. Customized."

"Original music costs a lot of money, and the money saved in publicity can be diverted. It's just that, a big-name singer like Chen Yijun, would you like to write the theme song of a web drama?" A small web shot for an 18-line newcomer Is the theme song written in the play too much for the singing queen Chen Yijun? It is normal for Liu Xueyi to have such doubts.

"Don't worry, I will convince Chen Yijun."

With President Pei's assurance, Liu Xueyi certainly no longer doubted: "That's great, Chen Yijun can still bring some fans over!"

Pei Shaoze nodded, and then said: "Tianxuan's financial appropriation will take time, and the investment funds should arrive within half a month, when the Spring Festival is over. Director Liu, you can choose a good day and start the machine officially."

The funds arrived in the account within half a month. This was the fastest rate Liu Xueyi had ever experienced.

Liu Xueyi shook hands with Pei Shaoze: "Mr. Pei, it's really refreshing to work with you! I will call all the crew of the upper drama when I go back, and prepare to start after the Spring Festival. I hope everything goes smoothly!"

***

At this time, Cheng Xia was in the private room of Ronghua Hotel opposite the Seventeenth Middle School.

After spending a week filming the MV, Chen Yijun took the initiative to invite all the staff to dinner. She is intimate in private, never puts on celebrity airs, and takes special care of Cheng Xia. After getting along these days, the two have become acquainted with each other, and the relationship is just like that of siblings.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Yijun suddenly asked: "By the way, Cheng Xia, do you have Weibo?"

Cheng Xia took out his mobile phone and opened her Weibo to show her: "This is my Weibo trumpet, but I don't usually post much, just log in to watch news, gossip, etc. Sister Yan said that she would register for us in a unified manner. New Weibo, apply for certification."

When Zhou Yan heard this, he explained: "This is what Mr. Pei meant. The company will help newcomers apply for a Weibo account. This account must be managed by the agent."

Chen Yijun was not surprised by this: "Weibo is managed by the agent? Pei is always afraid that newcomers will not know what to say, and they will send things indiscriminately, and they will become black history if they are picked out?"

Zhou Yan said: "Yes, after all, there has been such a precedent in the circle."

Chen Yijun looked at Cheng Xia with a smile: "After the new Weibo application is complete, tell me, I want to be your first fan."

Cheng Xia was flattered: "Sister Jun, don't be kidding, you have tens of millions of fans on Weibo. Suddenly paying attention to me is not good, right?"

Chen Yijun waved her hand casually: "It doesn't matter, I am a contracted singer of Tianxuan, and it is normal for newcomers to follow Tianxuan. When the MV is released in a few days, the starring role will definitely attract attention. Then, I will introduce to the fans. The handsome little brother in the MV is our company's newcomer Cheng Xia. You have a Weibo, so I can circle you well."

Zhou Yan was so excited that Chen Yijun was willing to take the initiative to promote Cheng Xia, this is really a big pie from the sky! She hurriedly took out her mobile phone and opened the new Weibo that Cheng Xia had applied for and showed it to Chen Yijun: "Cheng Xia's Weibo has just passed authentication, and this is it."

Cheng Xia's trumpet is called "Summer Orange", and the content is all current affairs news and funny jokes forwarded by him. The new Weibo ID that Zhou Yan applied for is called "Cheng Xia", and the certified yellow V says "Tianxuan Group Signed Artist", and his head is a frontal photo with a bright smile, looking very sunny and handsome.

The agent has been busy applying for a new Weibo, and Cheng Xia hasn't paid attention to it these days. Now, after looking at it, he found that his Weibo has fans. He couldn't help but curiously said: "How can I have fans on Weibo? Didn't you just register?"

Zhou Yan was also very puzzled. She hadn't had time to buy Cheng Xia fans, where did the wild fans come from? She clicked on the fans and took a look. The familiar "Pei" character avatar and the crisp brief introduction of "CEO of Tianxuan Group" shocked her.

Cheng Xia also had a heartbeat: "President Pei?"

The first one to pay attention to him is actually President Pei?

Zhou Yan shook her hand and clicked into the avatar of the character Pei, and found that President Pei not only followed Cheng Xia, but also followed all the artists in Tianxuan Group C. She was slightly relieved and said: "President Pei is probably politely following."

Chen Yijun leaned over to look at Zhou Yan's mobile phone screen and couldn't help but complain: "President Pei actually followed all the artists secretly. By the way, why did he delete all of his Weibo? I remember he sent a lot of selfies before? After she said, she looked at the agent next to her and asked: "Sister Wu, have you seen it too, Mr. Pei's previous Weibo is full of photos everywhere."

Chen Yijun's agent was Wu Xin, and she put on a paralyzed face all day long, and Cheng Xia did not dare to talk to this sister. Hearing Chen Yijun's words, she said blankly: "He deleted all the previous Weibo, probably because he thought the things he posted before were too embarrassing."

Everyone: "..."

That's true. In the past, Pei Shaoze's Weibo was all selfies, either on the beach or drinking in the club, which is too different from the image of President Pei who is now in suits and shoes.

Wu Xin continued: "You didn't find out, he just changed his soul, has he suddenly become a workaholic recently?"

Chen Yijun thoughtfully: "That said, he has really changed a lot. I heard that he called the propaganda team to a meeting when he came back from a business trip. Some time ago, he had trouble with the legal affairs and copyright teams."

Director Zhang also interjected: "Yes, they used to say that Tianxuan's new boss Pei Shaoze is very unreliable, but last time he visited the class, I think others are pretty good. Is there any misunderstanding of the rumors?"

Everyone did not interrupt Cheng Xia's discussion of President Pei.

Cheng Xia thought to himself that he hadn't contacted Pei Shaoze before, and it was not easy to comment on. He only knows that he likes Mr. Pei very much now-he is simply and decisive, serious and responsible, and he feels very practical and at ease. Thinking of looking at Mr. Pei who was working overtime across the street that night, Cheng Xia felt that it was a blessing for Tianxuan artists to meet such a dedicated boss.

At this moment, Chen Yijun's phone rang suddenly. She glanced at the caller ID, said sorry to everyone, went out to answer the phone, and when she came back, she went to the agent to whisper a few words. Zhou Yan keenly saw Chen Yijun's mobile phone call. When "Pei Shaoze" was displayed, she guessed that it was Mr. Pei's call, and thought it was related to the MV.

Not long after, she received a message from President Pei on her mobile phone: "The crew of "Folding Paper" on the 17th floor of Tianxuan Building at 9 a.m. on February 7 has officially auditioned. The script for the audition has been sent to you by Zhang Fan to notify you. The artists in the band are ready."

Zhou Yan typed and replied immediately: "Okay, President Pei, I see."

The meal ended in a hurry.

Chen Yijun and his agent Wu Xin returned to the company in a nanny car, and Zhou Yan took Cheng Xia back to the company in another car. On the way, Cheng Xia asked Zhou Yan softly: "Sister Yan, can I log in to that new Weibo by myself? Or is it always managed by you?"


Zhou Yan thought for a while and said, "Of course you can log in on Weibo. But remember, don't slap your hands like likes, don't post negative energy, or make any comments on gossip in the entertainment circle. From now on, you must have the awareness of public figures. It's best to think about it when you post on Weibo and don't make trouble for yourself, understand?"

Cheng Xia immediately raised her hand and promised: "Understood, I will never send it indiscriminately. I will give you a look before sending it."

He just felt that Mr. Pei paid attention to his account and he wanted to log in by himself instead of handing it over to Zhou Yan.

Zhou Yan sent the Weibo login name and password to Cheng Xia, and also forwarded the message sent by President Pei.

Cheng Xia was stunned: "The audition is on February 7, is it so fast?"

Zhou Yan took a deep breath and looked at Cheng Xia and said solemnly: "President Pei has a more serious attitude towards this drama than I thought. So anxious to audition, it is likely that she will start shooting right after the Spring Festival." She paused. He paused and exhorted: "Cheng Xia, go back and take the time to read the information I gave you. If you can seize this opportunity, your journey will be much smoother in the future."

Cheng Xia nodded: "Sister Yan, don't worry, I have been reading the information these days, and I know how to act by then."

Zhou Yan patted the boy's shoulder encouragingly: "Come on."
