Sorry, I have to prepare for the filming of "Journey to the West" these days, and it has been delayed for too long..."
"I'm really grateful to your TV station for taking me seriously, and I'm also very grateful to Mr. Zhong for coming in person. This makes me feel flattered...but I'm really sorry..."
"This is not a question of appearance fees or not...really!"
"Forehead……"
When Zhong Zhen arrived, he was actually ready to fight a very difficult and protracted battle.
However, when he met Lu Yuan, this protracted battle seemed to be more difficult than imagined.
Lu Yuan always refused.
No matter how he invites, if he is sincere, he will refuse...
Even when he increased the appearance fee to four million, Lu Yuan still hesitated and refused.
Four million is already his limit.
It is impossible for Taili to approve more than 4 million in funds.
After all, the highest number of instructors they invited was only about 20 million, and a guest standing on the stage and singing a song cost 4 million. This is really a sign of respect and respect.
pity……
Although Lu Yuan said it politely, he still refused.
Lu Yuan's slight hesitation made Zhong Zhen's heart skip a beat.
He thought of another possibility.
Qianchuantai's "The King of Singers" has been sharpening its skills to compete with "The Voice of China".
Their mentor lineup and player lineup are not weak.
Lu Yuan, this hot star in China is definitely the first one they compete for, and I'm afraid the number of times he calls is really no less than that of his own "The Voice of China"...
There is even a possibility that the price offered there is higher, a figure that Lu Yuan cannot refuse.
This is really difficult to handle...
In the office, Zhong Zhen didn't know how to continue chatting with Lu Yuan for a while.
He was drinking tea. Although it was West Lake Longjing, he didn't know why but he always felt that this Dragon Well didn't taste right. There was always a strange feeling.
Although he was sincere on the surface and looked calm with a smile on his face, he was constantly calculating many possibilities in his heart.
Of course, he didn't believe that Lu Yuan would devote himself to "Journey to the West".
In his opinion, Lu Yuan was really not such a person.
Throughout the history of Lu Yuan since his debut, Lu Yuan is such a person who is unwilling to be lonely and always wants to cause trouble.
Do you think such a person would put all his thoughts on the movie seriously?
Are you kidding...
If Lu Yuan really goes to Qian and Sichuan TV, then there is no doubt that a large number of ratings will go there. What if, the ratings of Qian and Sichuan TV's "The King of Singers" exceed those of Zhejiang TV's "Hua Xia"
"Good Voice" So...
This is no small matter.
"Mr. Lu... I sincerely hope you can consider our "The Voice of China" and we will treat you with the most sincere heart."
"Sorry...Mr. Zhong..."
"..."
Zhong Zhen stood up.
There was inevitably a somewhat disappointed expression on his face.
He looked at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan's face was very sincere.
But to Zhong Zhen, it was of no use no matter how sincere Lu Yuan was.
After all, he still didn't invite Lu Yuan.
Now that the conversation has reached this point, Zhong Zhen can't say anything else. He can only stand up and say goodbye.
Lu Yuan was very concerned and personally escorted Zhong Zhen to the door and watched Zhong Zhen leave.
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Four million!
This is indeed an irresistible number.
However, he feels that he will be very busy next time, so he should not think about variety shows such as "The Voice of China" for the time being.
and……
Director James specifically called Lu Yuan today to ask when the script would be completed.
Lu Yuan found that in addition to being busy with "Westward Journey", he also had to write the script of "Brokeback Mountain".
so……
What can he do?
This is all about making money, so you have to score on a first-come, first-served basis.
"Mr. Lu..."
"What?"
"Mr. Lei Hong, the person in charge of "The King of Singers" at Qianchuan Station, also called me just now and hopes to meet you..."
"What is "The King of Singers"?"
"This is Qianchuan TV's own program, with a huge investment, and the lineup of instructors invited is no less than that of "The Voice of China", and they are also very sincere..."
"You rejected it too?"
"Yes, I did refuse, but I just won't give up until I reach the Yellow River..."
"Okay."
Lu Yuan sighed and looked up at the sky forty-five degrees.
Why!
Being too popular is also a troublesome thing!
What can I do?
I don't want this either...
This moment...
He felt as lonely as snow.
Wu Tingting looked at Lu Yuan's back.
She doesn't know why, but she always has the feeling that her boss Lu seems a bit coquettish...
…………………………
"Stop, stop!"
"What's wrong?"
"Was it the car from Qianchuantai that drove past just now?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Stop the car on the side of the road first, and I'll call the station. If you don't call, it will be late!"
"What...what happened to Uncle Zhong?"
"You don't understand!"
After the driver stopped the car, Zhong Zhen immediately ran to the side of the road and called Tang Minghui, deputy director of the Zhejiang Provincial Television Station.
"Director..."
"What's wrong?"
"I failed, I couldn't invite Lu Yuan..."
"What? You can't even move after so much money?"
"Yes...Qianzhou Taiwan has a higher bid than us. I suspect it has exceeded five million..."
"Qianzhou Terrace..."
"Yes, if Qianzhou Station takes the lead, many things will be different. Station Manager, you should know Lu Yuan's popularity in China. At the same time, you should also know that Lu Yuan is also well-known internationally. His appeal
I think it’s definitely not low…”
"Keep talking..."
"If Qianzhou TV uses Lu Yuan's brand, and Lu Yuan himself promotes it, I suspect that many second- and third-tier singers will switch to Qianzhou TV. After all, they will have certain expectations after meeting Lu Yuan.
The probability of getting Lu Yuan's song, although this probability is very slim,
But the benefits behind the same are definitely huge. The previous album battle between Shen Zhiwei and Zhou Tianwang has fully demonstrated the power of Lu Yuan's songs. Even if they take a step back, they can't get Lu Yuan's songs, but if they can get to know Lu Yuan
, this is also very profitable for them..."
"This is indeed true..."
"More importantly, we cannot lose to Qianchuan TV. Really, if we are defeated by Qianchuan TV in ratings, it will have a series of impacts on our advertisers, although I am not sure about this impact.
To what extent..."
Zhong Zhen's voice was anxious.
A mess of possibilities emerged in his mind.
After thinking about the hesitation in Lu Yuan's eyes just now, Zhong Zhen's premonition became worse and worse!
He felt that Lu Yuan was already tempted by the price offered by Qianchuantai.
He felt that when Qianzhou Tai went to see Lu Yuan this time, he would definitely sign Lu Yuan.
After thousands of mountains and rivers, this is the only step left. Zhong Zhen is really unwilling to die on the price.
So he explained the stakes to Tang Minghui very seriously.
Tang Minghui was silent on the other end of the phone.
If anyone else had said this, Tang Minghui would have thought it was nonsense and simply alarmist.
How can one person have such great influence?
But……
This person is Zhong Zhen.
One of the backbones of Zhejiang Provincial Television, Zhong Zhen has never made a mistake in all the ups and downs in these years.
and……
Lu Yuan's influence is indeed very powerful.
"Let's do this...I'll give you permission. As long as the price doesn't exceed seven million, we can accept it!"
"Well, okay, I understand!"
After finishing the phone call, Zhong Zhen looked at the sunshine in the distance.
He was silent for a while.
"Let's go back..."
"go back?"
"Yes! Let's go back and have a good fight with Lei Hong from Qianchuan Station... After all, our Zhejiang Station's comprehensive strength is stronger than Qianzhou Station. If we really want to fight, the chances of winning are definitely not small..."
"Um."
The driver Xiao Wang nodded.
Although he felt there was no need to be so anxious, he felt that Lu Yuan might not go to Qianzhou Terrace, but what could he say?
He could only turn around and go back.
…………………………
Lu Yuan had a headache.
How many times does he have to reject these people before he really understands that he really doesn't want to go through with it?
When Lei Hong from Qianchuan Station came to "Remote" Entertainment with a gift, Lu Yuan didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment.
Naturally, he smiled and enthusiastically invited the leader to the conference room, and told Wu Tingting to make a good cup of tea...
"Brother Lu... is indeed a very particular person. Look at this table and chairs, they are quite simple... It's really hard to believe that someone like Brother Lu is so strict with himself and lives a low-key life..."
"Ahem, Brother Lei's laughter has paid off..." Leihong has a beard, which makes Lu Yuan feel very bold.
As soon as he came up, he expressed his admiration in a very natural tone, and directly called Lu Yuan to help Lu brother build a relationship.
"Haha, brother Lu, I think you should understand my intention when I come today... This time, I come here with great sincerity... On behalf of our Qianchuan Station, I formally invite you to join our station and become a member of our station."
As guests of our TV show "The King of Singers", of course, you don't have to tell us that we understand the treatment and appearance fees. Brother Lu is a person of status after all. Our TV station is very sincere this time. We can't be better than "Huaxia"
"Good Voice" is low, we are not stingy!"
Lei Hong was indeed very forthright, and his way of speaking was also quite sincere. His words sounded like brother Lu, and his sincerity made Lu Yuan's legs feel weak.
Lu Yuan only had money in his mind now, and he saw the money floating towards him.
But……
He is a very principled person.
Since I have decided not to attend, I will definitely not go.
Although he likes money and wants to make this money, but...
He really can't violate his own principles!
"Sorry...Brother Lei...I can't go..."
"Brother Lu, can I take the liberty to ask you what price you paid for "The Voice of China"?" Lei Hong looked at Lu Yuan.
"No, it's not a matter of price..."
"What is that...I hope Brother Lu can talk to me honestly...after all, we are sincere!"
"Well... I want to finish filming "Westward Journey" and also write the script, but I really can't spare any time during this period..."
"Time is like a sponge squeezing out water... just squeeze it in a little bit?"
"This...I'm sorry, I really can't..."
Just at this moment...
The knock on the door rang again.
"Come in."
"Mr. Lu..."
"What's wrong?"
"Mr. Zhong Zhen is back again..."
"What? Are you back again?" Lu Yuan was stunned.
But Lei Hong suddenly narrowed his eyes.
There was a vague thought in my heart that was not good.
