Chapter 282 Promoted to three first-line actresses
August 8, 2021, Beijing
After Yin Li participated in a program, she waved goodbye to the audience and fans in the audience, which attracted bursts of cheers.
"Yin Li, Yin Li, will never be separated."
"Sister Lizi, you have to work harder.
"Ling'er, I love you."
"Yin-li-ahhhhhh-"
"..."
Under the escort of these on-site security guards, Yin Li successfully left the event venue before being surrounded by fans, and she was relieved when she got into her nanny car.
The manager next to him was so anxious that his forehead was sweating. Now that the situation was stable, he immediately smiled and looked at his artist with joy.
"Pear, does it taste good to be an A-list star?"
Yin Li closed her eyes and thought about it for a moment, then smiled: "Although it's a bit troublesome, it feels really good."
"Ha ha."
The manager laughed, and then sighed: "Sister Cao and Chairman made a very wise choice when they asked you to play the role of Ling'er. This time, "Seven Swords 2" became a big hit, and you were directly promoted to the front line, and you also have a career overseas.
A lot of popularity.
A couple of days ago, a film crew from Xiangjiang contacted me. You know, those people from Xiangjiang are extremely xenophobic. Unless they focus on the mainland box office, they will not hire mainland actresses.
This time, I heard that they intend to release it simultaneously in South Korea, so I took a fancy to you and Miaomiao's fame in China and Asia, and planned to ask you two to play the female lead and the second female lead. Gee, the pay is quite attractive."
"Hong Kong Movie?"
Yin Li frowned and felt a little conflicted in her heart. It wasn't that she didn't like Xiangjiang movies.
In China, no one in the film and television industry dares to look down on Xiangjiang Movies. These four words represented the golden age of Chinese film and television. Nowadays, many big names in the entertainment industry have made their fortunes relying on Xiangjiang Movies.
But then again, respect is respect. Today's Hong Kong movies are indeed a bit lonely. What's more important is that nowadays, most of the mainland female stars participating in Hong Kong movies are just flowerpots.
If she is not a good wife and loving mother, or if she is not a gentle girlfriend, showing a few scenes to give some comfort to the male protagonist who is fighting outside, nothing else will have any effect.
If it's more elaborate, there may be scenes of being killed/kidnapped/humiliated, etc., to stimulate revenge on the male protagonist, or to advance the plot.
Then there are the villains, and they rarely play the role of big villains. They are usually mistresses or thugs around the villain. They are either coquettish or cold-faced. Their function is to attract the box office by brushing their faces, but their own existence is actually dispensable.
It can be said that most of these characters are tool people.
From a career development perspective, the benefits to actors of playing such a role are few other than good pay.
Of course, if you want to use this to enter the Hong Kong or even Asian market, then that's another matter.
However, this is not attractive to Yin Li. The situation in the domestic entertainment industry is very good now, and it is a good time to show off. Many overseas artists are eager to come to China to develop, and only fools run away.
Even if I want to go overseas, I will give priority to Hollywood, South Korea, Japan and other places in the United States. To be honest, that's all.
Maybe their entertainment system is very developed, but in a small place, the plate is so big, and there are so many local artists competing for food, and the competition is so fierce that it can be called cruel.
Stars who can be successful in China can develop well in China, so there is no need to abandon their bright future in China and go to a place like this to find misfortune.
Therefore, Yin Li really has no interest in Xiangjiang movies. She would rather find a film with profound literary and artistic challenges to challenge her, hone her acting skills, and prepare for Zuo Le's new drama next year.
Thinking of this, Yin Li asked her agent to push the film appointment, and then asked Shui Miaomiao if she had accepted it.
Seeing Yin Li's refusal, the agent felt a little pity. The salary offered by the other party was really not low, but Yin Li didn't agree, so she didn't dare to say anything more.
When artists reach the front-line level, they begin to have a higher level of autonomy. If they don't want to play a certain role, even the boss Zuo Le can't help it.
It was a pity that the manager, with a calm face, revealed Shui Miaomiao's gossip to Yin Li.
"Miaomiao may not be sure, but I heard from Sister Bai that she has received a lot of invitations recently, including some top-notch resources."
Yin Li's manager's eyes were full of envy. "Seven Swords 2" became a hit, and Yin Li was not the only one to succeed.
Shui Miaomiao and Zhang Jiajia have also successfully been promoted to first-line actresses.
And among these three people, Shui Miaomiao is the most popular.
These two popular characters, Lan Xin and Sha Niu, have brought her great benefits. She is now known as the national goddess and has the potential to become the number one little flower in the entertainment industry.
Although Yin Li's popularity has skyrocketed with her role as "Ling'er", she is still slightly inferior to Shui Miaomiao.
Yin Li's agent has a good relationship with Shui Miaomiao's agent, so she knows a little bit about the inside story.
During this period, regardless of film contracts, Shui Miaomiao's commercial endorsements alone totaled hundreds of millions, many of which were top quality endorsements, the kind that guaranteed to make a profit without losing money.
The agent's income is closely related to that of the artist, so how could she not be envious of it.
Yin Li saw the agent's little thoughts and smiled in her heart. She was an agent who was good at everything, had strong working ability, and treated her well, but there was one thing that wasn't good about her -
Too much emphasis on money!
Everyone likes money. Bai Zhantang said it well. You don’t work for money, but sometimes people really can’t be influenced by money.
Something big will happen...
Fortunately, although Yin Li's agent loves money, he is timid by nature, knows how to behave, and does things within Yin Li's tolerance limits.
In addition, then again, loving money also has the advantage of loving money. The interests of the two are tied up, and the agent works hard to protect Yin Li's interests for the sake of his own income.
Whether it is a film contract or a business contract, we do our best to ensure that Yin Li has the upper hand, which saves Yin Li, who hates trouble, a lot of worry.
Therefore, even though she knew her agent had shortcomings, Yin Li did not choose to change her.
………
In the car, the manager said a few words to Shui Miaomiao, and realized that something was wrong. He took the initiative to change the topic and talked about the upcoming movie "Wulin Gaiden".
The release time of "Wulin Gaiden" has been determined. The premiere will be held at 2 pm on August 12, and it will be released directly in other theaters at the same time.
Zuo Le did not choose to test screen. The popularity of "Wulin Gaiden" is here, and he does not need to use the word of mouth of the test screen to attract the audience.
Let’s go straight to the point and decide whether to live or die!
When it comes to the movie "Wulin Gaiden", Yin Li is also a little nervous.
She debuted late and has been filming TV series since she became famous. It is not that she has never acted in movies, but she has always been a guest star and a starring role. This is her first time, let alone "Wulin Gaiden", which is of great significance to her.
She was still looking forward to the film's results and asked her agent: "At 8 o'clock in the evening, will the pre-sale of the film begin?"
Yin Li's agent nodded: "There is only a window period of more than three days. I think Director Zuo is a bit too much. I would like to come here for at least a week to take a closer look at the situation."
"If you continue to cut off, you will be subject to chaos."
Yin Li didn't agree with her agent's idea: "The film's premiere time has been set, and we have promoted it in advance. The three-day window is just right. We can see the pre-sales results and estimate the box office, and it will not affect the morale of the crew too much."
.
You must know that the movie has not yet been released, and the pre-sales results are the weather vane. If the time is delayed too long, it is easy to cause trouble."
The agent suddenly nodded and said with a little itch: "Time flies so slowly. I really want to see the pre-sale box office as soon as possible. I wonder if it can exceed 100 million?"
"Over 100 million?"
Yin Li didn't speak, but her eyes slowly started to wander...
