Taipei.
The winter in Taipei is not too cold. It can reach over 22 degrees during the day, so just wear a single coat. However, there is a lot of rain. This feature was sung by Meng Tingwei in the song "Go to Taipei to Watch the Rain in Winter."
In a cafe on the street, 67-year-old Zhang Xiaoyan was waiting for someone.
She was a child star, met Soong Meiling, and later did variety shows. She hosted "Variety Show 100", "Super Sunday", "Happy Sunday" and "Xiaoyan's Appointment". She was known as the Three Kings and One Queen with Zhang Fei, Hu Gua and Wu Zongxian.
She also worked for a record company, and people like Little Tigers, Zhang Yusheng, Zhang Huimei, Tao Jingying and others were discovered or trained by her.
With such qualifications, she is considered the eldest among the eldest sisters in this small and broken place in Taiwan. Anyone who meets her will give her three points of noodles.
"Squeak 1
The door of the coffee shop was pushed open, and a middle-aged woman was swept in by the thin rain. Of course, the title of middle-aged woman is a bit harsh, because her name is Alyssa Chia.
I am 41 years old this year and my appearance is still outstanding.
"Sister Xiaoyan 1
She walked quickly and came closer. Zhang Xiaoyan looked up and down and sighed: "Let me tell you, among women in Taiwan who are over 170 cm tall, Lin Chiling is the most beautiful; among women under 170 cm tall, Alyssa Chily is the most beautiful."
"I should be the most beautiful among those 160 centimeters tall. If I am more or less than 100 centimeters, everyone will have an opinion..."
Alyssa Chia sat down and said with a smile: "Long time no see, why do you suddenly think of making an appointment with me?"
"Oh, I'm ashamed to say it, but did you know that a video site called Hugelive is about to be launched?"
"There is an uproar on the island, of course I know."
"They wanted to develop business in Taiwan. I was new to the country and not familiar with it, so they approached me and offered me the position of planning director. In fact, it was because I was a bit thin and had many friends. I was responsible for communicating and contacting the artists.
connect.
Don't make fun of me for having to sacrifice yourself for five buckets of rice at this old age."
"Where can I find it? Sister Xiaoyan's strength is here. 1
Jia Jingwen said hurriedly.
"That's good. I have a drama with you today, and I want you to be the heroine. I read the rough script, and wow, it's completely different from the previous Taiwanese dramas. It's very powerful."
Zhang Xiaoyan briefly told the story.
A mental patient kills people randomly, and the heroine's son is killed. She has to face the pain with her husband, and then a new person comes to the company, who happens to be the murderer's sister, and she is her boss.
There is also a lawyer who defends murderers, facing public incomprehension and enduring all kinds of online violence, etc...
It is to interpret a social group portrait through the murder of a mentally ill person.
“Does anyone in Taiwan watch this kind of subject matter?”
After listening to this, Jia Jingwen asked worriedly.
"People come here to expand the market, so they naturally want to shoot something different. Don't worry about the budget. 10 episodes, a full NT$100 million, if it's not enough, I will give you more! To be honest, this character and script are great, and you are in your early 40s.
Now, don’t you want to challenge your career?”
"..."
Alyssa Chia was a little dazed and still thinking about NT$100 million.
Converted, it's about 22 million yuan, which is nothing in mainland China, but it is a super-large production in Taiwan. The average cost of Taiwanese dramas is now only a few million yuan.
And it’s only 10 episodes, so it’s more luxurious on average.
"Jingwen? Jingwen? What do you think?"
"Oh, sister Xiaoyan, you have said so. Of course I have to appreciate it, but it's best to read the script."
"I brought it, here 1
Zhang Xiaoyan took out the script and gave it to her. Alyssa Chia was attracted to it after flipping through a few pages and nodded immediately. The play is called "The Distance Between Us and Evil" and it's really good.
The two chatted for a while, and then Alyssa Chia left.
Zhang Xiaoyan didn't leave. After waiting for a long time, Wu Bai came in. He was wearing jeans, a good-looking shirt, and long hair. He was ugly and handsome. "I'm telling you, your look hasn't changed for decades. Can you change it?"
"I once had short hair1
"Having short hair is called changing my style. If I change my skirt, is it also called changing my route?"
A senior like Zhang Xiaoyan can complain about anyone. She asked him to sit down and said with a smile: "What are you busy with recently? Have you held any concerts?"
"We are preparing for a new performance."
"You are so amazing. You are almost 50 years old and you are still so energetic."
"Oh, I don't even have to sing when I hold a concert. They pay money to come in and sing for me, and I can also conduct..."
We joked for a while.
Zhang Xiaoyan expressed her intention and invited him to film.
Wu Bai Zheng'er has made several movies, including "Brave New World", "Downstream" and "New Police Story". He was the one who was killed by Eason Chan's car.
He and Tsui Hark had a close friendship, and the two wrote the lyrics to "Sudden Self" together.
"This play is called "Want to See You". It tells the story of traveling through time and space, and you love me and I love you. Don't worry about these. Several of your songs will be used in it. Oh yes, the copyright will be negotiated later.
.
In short, the hero and heroine like to listen to your songs very much, and they need you to make a guest appearance in a concert or a fan club."
"So simple?"
"It's so difficult that I'm afraid you won't be able to perform it"
Zhang Xiaoyan was joking.
"Okay 1
Wu Bai didn't say much and nodded coolly. If it weren't for the sun outside, he would have wanted to put on his sunglasses.
…………
On this day, Zhang Xiaoyan met many people and was very tired.
I had no such work experience before. After the glory in the 1990s and the beginning of the new century, Taiwanese entertainment has long since become a backwater, and artists have gone to the mainland to make money.
The island is even more magical all day long, saying that we can’t afford tea eggs and Fuling mustard is worth thousands of gold.
"All their money is in their mobile phones. If we attack the power station, they will starve to death if there is a power outage, and they will be unable to do anything."
"There is no protein in the mainland, so we have to eat voles1"
"It takes 30 minutes. I recharged my mobile phone and the money arrived in my account in just 30 minutes~"
Zhang Xiaoyan was employed by Hugelive for a short period of time, but she has a lot of feelings.
The public impression seems to be that Taiwan bans mainland companies. In fact, this is not the case. Many mainland companies have branches and subsidiaries in Taiwan. When China and the United States confronted each other in later generations, Taiwan followed its masters and made various obstacles to mainland companies.
And she knew that this platform had Hong Kong funds, and the actual controller was 99 from Mainland China, as well as many large American capitals.
It is not difficult for such companies to enter Taiwan.
It has been scheduled to be officially launched next week, and the membership service will be launched at the same time. The monthly fee is about 65 yuan - which seems quite expensive, but you must know that the industry with the lowest monthly salary in Taiwan this year has an average of 5,152 yuan. The average monthly salary in the industry and service industry can be
Over ten thousand.
As a manager, she naturally knows what content is available online in Taiwan, and she has enriched various websites on the island. At this stage, she is mainly promoting a Korean movie "Train to Busan". After all, Taiwan loves Korean Wave and Japanese culture.
Zhang Xiaoyan read it in advance out of curiosity, and her frustration became more and more serious.
To be honest, South Korea still has some resistance, Wanwan is a complete waste, and a drama worth 10 million yuan can send them away.
She just felt that a huge monster was about to arrive, just like the alien spaceship in "Independence Day", it could destroy Taiwan Entertainment to pieces with one shot.
