Chapter 874: Lobbyist Li Eucalyptus

As the host of a program, your role is to lead the program, but there are exceptions, such as this episode of "Kangxi is Coming". Because Ye Ming was there, Cai Kangyong and Xu Xidi naturally said they would look at Ye Ming's face when they hosted the show. And here we are at the studio, right now.

Jay Chou and Luo Zhixiang were already waiting there, and Xu Xiyuan, Fan Xiaoxuan and Harlem were also sitting in the studio.

This is also a rule. The bigger a star is, the more he has to wait until the last one to appear. Ye Ming is the biggest star in this show. Therefore, in such a situation, he is naturally the last one to appear, and That is to say, even if Harlem is waiting for Ye Ming, there is nothing to say.

If it is said that Ye Ming did not win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, then Harlin is a senior and famous enough at this time. It is reasonable to be unconvinced by Ye Ming, but now Ye Ming's influence has to be Let Harin think about whether it is worth waiting for Ye Ming, and it can be seen from Harin's expression. At this time, he was not surprised at all when Ye Ming came out last.

On the other hand, Ye Ming also took the initiative to greet Harlem. After all, he was a senior, so he still had some courtesy. Superstars like Ye Ming, unless they really have grudges with each other, will generally not treat them as invisible when they meet seniors with more seniority. They must at least greet them politely, and this is also the case. The rules of the entertainment industry.

The entertainment industry, to put it bluntly, was like the pear garden of the past. The rules in ancient times were even more strict and surprising. The master at that time even said that he could influence the life and death of his apprentices.

There was a rule in the old days of Liyuan Xing that if you want to learn opera or something, you must sign a contract of prostitution. During the apprenticeship, life and death on the master's side have nothing to do with the master. Even if he is beaten to death by the master, the master does not have to bear responsibility. Of course there are not so many rules now.

But respecting seniors is generally necessary.

For example, when Cheng Long sees a senior like Ye Dexian, he usually won't pretend not to see him. It is necessary to say hello. At this time, other people naturally came over quickly to say hello to Ye Ming.

Harlin is considered a senior, but the others are considered the same generation as Ye Ming, so they have to come over to say hello to Ye Ming. This is also a rule in the entertainment industry, unless you want to offend Ye Ming.

After greeting everyone, Ye Ming took a look at the scene. His chair was also in the first position, closest to the two hosts. This is a symbol of status, but Ye Ming did not sit down directly after seeing it. Instead, he came to Wang Weizhong and said: "Mr. Wang, since you asked me to give my opinion, I will optimize it and say it directly. The design of this chair has If there is a problem, remove it, put my chair in the middle, and replace it with a sofa, two on the left and three on the right. This way it will appear that I am the protagonist in the show."

Wang Weizhong thought for a while and said: "In general shows, the first chair is the most popular actor. If it is replaced by a sofa, is that necessary?" The rules in the entertainment industry are generally like this, and I haven't seen any shows because This was changed.

Ye Ming nodded and said: "It must be corrected. We are a talk show. If the celebrities who come here are all of the same level, then this matter does not matter. But if it is said that the celebrities invited here are superstars, this If you are counting on superstars to bring you ratings during a program, you must think of this at times like this and highlight the status of superstars. This is what makes the program attractive, even attracting big stars. A reason."

Of course, as an old fox in the entertainment industry, Wang Weizhong also understands exactly what Ye Ming means by these words. Only superstars and people with the level of emperors and superstars will have sofas. This highlights a characteristic of superstars that other programs do not have. , when Kangxi came, this was an attractive place. Ye Ming did not go behind anyone else's back when he said this, and Harlem and the others also heard that this program was planned by Ye Ming.

It was even said that Xu Xiyuan even told Harlem: "I heard that the show Kangxi Is Coming, and even changed the name to the current Kangxi Is Coming, were all suggestions provided by Ye Ming."

The recording of the next program went very smoothly because Ye Ming was very cooperative. If a superstar is very cooperative in recording a program, then this program must be very easy to record.

Since superstars don't lose their temper, other artists naturally say they don't have the right to say anything.

After the recording was completed, Wang Weizhong clapped his hands and said: "Thank you for your help. I will treat you to a supper tonight. This program will be officially broadcast tomorrow. I look forward to this program hitting new ratings."

Ye Ming did not participate in the supper because of his big name, but he followed everyone naturally.

As for whether the new program can attract people, Ye Ming is very confident, but others are more nervous.

When he came back, Jay Chou even said worriedly: "Boss, do you think there will be a breakthrough when Kangxi comes this time? If not, it will not look good on the boss's face."

The appeal of a superstar is like this. Even if it is a mediocre program, if it invites a superstar, it can still drive the ratings of the program. At this point, it is a rule of the program. .

What's more, The Coming of Kangxi is also a good program in itself.

Ye Ming laughed loudly after hearing this and said: "Don't worry, the ratings will definitely be worthy of them inviting me to come. This episode of the program was planned by me. Therefore, I am very concerned about a program like this." Very confident.”

Novel program ideas, celebrities’ private items. It is even said that when exchanging items, you can see some interesting things about the celebrity's private life.

For example, Fan Xiaoxuan brought a bottle of Russian vodka from World War II. The problem is that Fan Xiaoxuan himself does not drink. This is another side of the star that ordinary fans are unlikely to know.

Therefore, these are some of the selling points of new ideas. Ye Ming knows very well that in such a situation, these selling points of his can capture the hearts of young people, and even some of his middle-aged and elderly audiences. , the ratings cannot be too low.

The next day was relatively boring, with symposiums and discussions, all just official talk. Although Ye Ming and the others came under the banner of non-governmental exchanges, everyone is very clear about what is actually going on. It is just that people rarely say that they take the initiative to poke such a window paper. Just broken. Ye Ming is not disgusted with this kind of thing, but if he is asked to say it is interesting, he will never say it.

When the meeting ended, Li Yu came to him, and the two of them found a relatively quiet place. Li Yu said a little tiredly: "I'm not very optimistic about this matter. What can we talk about? There is no practicality at all." The significance of this is that it would be more direct to discuss a cross-strait co-production of a movie or something. It is meaningless to say it is a cultural exchange. Mr. Ye, I think you are also a little distracted."

Regarding feelings, Ye Ming is not the only one who thinks this matter is not very meaningful. Li Yu also takes this kind of thing very seriously in his heart. At this time, Ye Ming waved his hand and said: "Whether it is useful or not is not up to us. As long as there is a beginning of exchange, it will be beneficial to the film market on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. If there is no such beginning, Even if there is exchange, it is limited. The Golden Horse Awards allows mainland films to participate, which is a good start. Therefore, I think the necessary contacts are also very important, otherwise I would not come at all.

On the other hand, I am surprised that Director Li can participate in this matter. "

Li Yu said helplessly at this moment: "Lao Hou invited me. Even if I want to refuse some things, it is impossible. Therefore, even if I don't want to participate in these things, it is impossible. Well, Lao Hou wants to invite you to participate in the Golden Horse Awards. According to your influence, as long as you participate, you will definitely gain a lot."

These words can actually clearly indicate a problem, that is, in such a situation, Li Yu's identity is a lobbyist. The purpose is obviously to invite Ye Ming to participate in the Golden Horse Awards. Although Li Yu did not explain it directly, it was very clear in his words that as long as Ye Ming participates, the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor will definitely become Ye Ming's bag.

Although there are very few inside stories about the Golden Horse Awards, and most of them can guarantee fairness, Ye Ming's achievements are also obvious to all. As long as you participate in the Golden Horse Awards, it must be the best actor. If Ye Ming is not the best actor, then It’s the Golden Horse Awards that have a shady secret.

Because Ye Ming is very powerful in terms of influence and acting skills. Under such a situation, if he participates, he will definitely be the best actor. No one can deny this. Oscar has recognized Ye Ming's acting skills. Naturally, other people will not think that they are better than Oscar.

Therefore, under such a situation, Ye Ming's winning of the award is not a shady incident, it is just a deal with Ye Ming.

If you come to the Golden Horse Awards and give us face, we will give you the title of Best Actor. Hou Xiaoxian is the chairman, but he will not come forward. Therefore, it would be best to let Li Eucalyptus be a lobbyist like this.

And Ye Ming is not afraid that they will regret it. This is just an exchange of interests. In fact, the key is to see if Ye Ming is willing to support the Golden Horse Awards.

Once upon a time, Ye Ming was daunted by a title like Golden Horse Best Actor, but now, it is almost within his reach. (To be continued)
