Chapter 368

After Seeing Jin Li's live broadcast ended in the afternoon, she received a message from Gu Cheng.

She originally thought he was here to show off how many pages he had done to arouse her competitive spirit, but she didn't expect that what he sent was news about the scheduling of "Assassination."

Seeing Jin Li: 【?】

Seeing Jin Li: 【Finally finished editing? Not easy!】

"Assassination" was a medium-cost web drama, and there were no high requirements for editing.

But ordinary web dramas only need one or two months to finish editing.

Even if it was the workload of two parts, it was normal to achieve it within three or four months.

But now more than half a year had passed, and Seeing Jin Li didn't know if Director Yan Jianqiao was too perfectionist, grinding the screen hard, leading to so much progress lagging behind.

But "Assassination" was not a special effects film. No matter how he ground it, he was just grinding from the material they had already shot, and it was impossible to torture the special effects artists crazily.

Being able to edit for so long, Director Yan could be considered a talent.

Grinding for a long time was not a problem, as long as the final result of that play was outstanding.

Now, was it finally time to wait for the harvest of fruits?

If the performance was outstanding this time, Tianding Entertainment and Chenxi Entertainment could still endure it, but if the performance was average, the two major companies would probably make Yan Jianqiao disappear in the circle.

This was also the shortcoming of new directors who didn't sign with companies. They had full enthusiasm and ambition, but they couldn't even understand many rules in the circle.

Among the directors Seeing Jin Li had cooperated with, there were mature directors and new directors. From the performance, Yan Jianqiao was the most lagging one in shooting integration.

Gu Cheng: 【If he doesn't finish editing, Tianding might not necessarily spend human feelings to schedule "Assassination" as soon as possible. The company didn't look favorably on this play in the first place, and the director encountered didn't understand anything, and the editing was so slow, the company was very dissatisfied with him】

A few words couldn't be explained clearly, so Gu Cheng simply made a voice call.

Seeing Jin Li answered.

Seeing Jin Li asked first: "So is it your company urging him to finish editing quickly and schedule it?"

Gu Cheng: "Pretty much."

He lowered his voice slightly, and the clear male voice carried a bit of low hoarseness, a bit like a subwoofer surrounding the ears.

Seeing Jin Li's ears couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Tsk.

So soothing.

Gu Cheng: "Originally, the company's arrangement for this play was to be released in the summer, and the publicity was negotiated with the publicity group and the video side, just waiting for Director Yan to finish editing.

Director Yan also agreed originally, but I don't know why his editing speed was particularly slow. No matter how Tianding urged, it was useless, which later led to all publicity plans falling through."

Seeing Jin Li heard this and said a fair word: "Although it was missed, it was only aimed at the play "Assassination." This play missed a very good release time and publicity, but it should have no impact on Tianding Entertainment.

Tianding is such a big company, generally occupying a dominant position. The publicity resources negotiated before are still there. Tianding Entertainment can transfer them out and sell a favor to other film and television companies."

Gu Cheng smiled lightly, and her ears seemed to be surrounded by dense bubbles, rustling and hoarse.

"You guessed right. Tianding actually didn't suffer a loss in this matter, but they were very dissatisfied with Director Yan.

I am one of the members of March Sky anyway, the most popular boy band member under their hands. They would prefer to throw resources at me."

No matter how unfavorably this play was looked upon before shooting, and how many problems were encountered after shooting, it was finally finished.

This was the first film and television play shot by this popular boy band member, which could originally be used as a big gimmick.

And the partner with him was one of the most popular actresses at the moment. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. They could hype up several selling points at will, so Tianding Entertainment naturally wanted to do a big job.

It seemed that not only Tianding Entertainment had the idea of hyping up, but Chenxi Entertainment was also preparing, but the cooperation between the two major companies didn't let their artists know so clearly.

Seeing Jin Li asked: "So when exactly does this play want to be broadcast?"

Gu Cheng said affirmatively: "Just next month, October. The specific broadcast time should be wanting to rub against Fang Fei's publicity.

You shot the magazine cover for Fang Fei, and Fang Fei is fighting against Huayun. When the magazine is listed, the popularity on the internet will not be less, and netizens will also fight each other. When "Assassination" is launched at that time, it can form a linkage."

It's not that publicity resources can't be thrown, but rubbing against the east wind of luxury brands is more cost-effective.

Gu Cheng asked back: "Are you not busy recently?"

Seeing Jin Li was stunned for a moment, a flash of confusion in her eyes: "Not very busy, just shooting Fang Fei's magazine cover, this has already been shot.

Then I participated in Director Chu's audition. As for the "Mediocre" I have already taken, the director is still selecting suitable investors and filming locations. It looks like it won't be shot so quickly, at least wait for a month or two. Why do you ask like this?"

Gu Cheng said doubtfully: "The industry knows that your traffic popularity in October will explode. Whether Huayun wants to snipe you, or Fang Fei wants to make you popular, they will definitely invest very large resources in publicity, and hot searches will definitely not be less.

You carry several brand endorsements on your body. October is the autumn and winter season. They should have autumn and winter new products to launch.

It just so happens that your traffic in October is predictably explosive. They should come to you to shoot promotional photos and advertisements, right? This is an obvious opportunity to rub against your popularity, which can save a lot of publicity resources."

Seeing Jin Li:?

"I suddenly have a bad premonition."

Sure enough, Gu Cheng's guess was very correct.

The two of them hadn't been on a voice call for a few minutes when a call from her manager popped up on Seeing Jin Li's phone interface.

Seeing Jin Li was a bit sweating.

Although she didn't know what the manager was looking for, she felt that Gu Cheng had the potential of a prophet.

Seeing Jin Li said: "Sigh, my manager came to find me. I'll answer her call. I hope it's not about the endorsement. I really want to free up more time to learn."

When an artist becomes more popular, her learning time is actually becoming less and less, and life will be squeezed by busy announcements.

So many stars in the industry believe that the golden rising period of a star is not when he is popular, but when he is not popular.

Accumulate more foundation when not popular, and when popular, you won't just be a vase that looks good but is useless. You have the strength to make the popularity long-lasting and establish your status in one fell swoop.

On this point, Seeing Jin Li hadn't experienced it from the business side, but she had experienced it from learning.

She found that when she first came through and decided to live broadcast learning, that period was actually the time when her learning time was most sufficient.

Unlike now, although the learning pressure is heavy, her schedule cannot avoid becoming busy.

Seeing Jin Li felt that she had given up many announcements for the sake of learning, but when she was really busy, no matter how few announcements were squeezed together, it made her look a bit stretched.

Going to be too busy!

"Seeing Jin Li, did you hear what I said just now? Why don't you answer me? Are you busy with other things?" Sui Lingfang asked.

She felt something was wrong. She specifically watched Seeing Jin Li finish the live broadcast before calling, otherwise, she would have called when Seeing Jin Li just returned to the apartment.

Sui Lingfang was also trying hard to create more learning time for Seeing Jin Li.

Seeing Jin Li returned to her senses: "Hmm, I heard it all. You said Duomi, Tiangong, and Rumengling all want to find me to shoot autumn and winter new products and advertisements, right?"

Sui Lingfang: "Yes, their calls came to the company today, planning to launch advertisements in mid-October. Now that it's the end of September, you still have a week to shoot."

To launch advertisements in mid-October, they must reserve a week of processing time for the brand. The earlier the material is given, the more sets of plans they can prepare.

The brand's pressure is applied to Seeing Jin Li here. She has to shoot promotional soft ads and hard ads for three brands in one week.

Seeing Jin Li asked uncomprehendingly: "Why do they want to keep the time so tight? Since they want me to shoot autumn and winter new products, they should have told me in August or September and docked with me in advance."

Sui Lingfang smiled: "Do you want to hear the truth or the lie?"

Seeing Jin Li was happy: "You say both to listen."

Sui Lingfang: "The lie is that they were conquered by your popularity and talent, picked many new product spokespersons, but found that it was not as realistic as you, the general spokesperson, shooting it, so they made this decision temporarily."

She paused and continued: "The truth is that you finished shooting Fang Fei's photos. They saw Fang Fei's attitude and knew that your traffic in October would explode, so they wanted to decide on you quickly."

Sui Lingfang explained: "They might not have let the new product spokesperson shoot the new products listed in October, but they felt that using you as the main publicity was more of a selling point and could save a large amount of publicity funds.

The reason why they didn't decide on you in advance was very simple. Your endorsement fee has gone up.

What we signed with the brand is the image endorsement fee. They can use the photos you shot for them as publicity, but it is limited to the photos shot.

If the brand wants new promotional films and wants you to do publicity for new products every year, that's another price.

Your endorsement fee has been rising every month for the past two years, especially this time with Fang Fei's warm-up, the endorsement fee has risen a lot. It rose on the day Fang Fei decided on you to shoot the magazine, so they have been hesitating."

Only now did they rush to decide because Fang Fei's attitude was already very clear. They wanted to fight this battle against "Huayun," and they would mainly promote Seeing Jin Li in October.

The influence of a top luxury brand cannot be underestimated internationally, not to mention that Fang Fei's base camp is in China. This is a super brand that started from China and will be more powerful in publicity.

Seeing Jin Li thought of some industry news Fang Jie told her before and said: "I am their spokesperson for these three brands after all. Since they all want to find me to endorse autumn and winter new products, then I can endorse them."

Anyway, money was given, and Chenxi Entertainment wouldn't let her suffer.

"However," her words turned, "I hope to follow the standard process of first-tier stars shooting advertisements, and no longer let them shoot for as many days as they want, and must work for a certain amount of time before leaving."

Sui Lingfang raised her eyebrows.

In the past, when Seeing Jin Li faced first-tier stars in the same industry, she had an advantage, which was that she was professional enough, her attitude was good, and she had enough time to let the brand toss.

At that time, Seeing Jin Li didn't care about the brand squeezing her time and wanted to be perfect, so she didn't say anything.

Otherwise, according to the industry's practice, they wouldn't give the brand so much time to ink.

Isn't it just shooting a few photos?

Now that technology is so powerful, adopting some novel technologies, you can shoot hundreds of photos in a few minutes, and you can also do micron-level portrait P-picture processing. The film efficiency is actually very fast, and it doesn't need to take so much time at all.

The hard ad publicity thrown out will not exceed 5 movements, and in the actual shooting process, even if Seeing Jin Li poses for 20 movements, it actually only takes one hour, and it really doesn't need to take too much time.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be sayings in the industry that big-name stars changed three sets of styling in ten minutes and shot photos of three sets of makeup.

Seeing Jin Li is considered very conscientious in the industry. If other first-tier stars encounter the brand's overtime beyond the originally scheduled shooting time, they also have to ask for overtime fees and work delay fees.

They didn't ask for it on behalf of Seeing Jin Li in the name of the company.

Sui Lingfang smiled and said: "Seeing Jin Li, congratulations on your thinking being more biased toward industry thinking. Actually, I wanted to do this for a long time.

This is not only saving your time, but also reducing your burden, letting the brand be more dedicated in overall arrangement.

You have participated in many announcements and personally experienced it. After arriving at the scene, the star might only appear for ten minutes, but the announcement side will spend several hours arranging it.

This arrangement time can be completely saved for you to do other things, instead of waiting stupidly."

Seeing Jin Li had to admit that after being a star for nearly two years, she was becoming more and more mature.

She became more mature in dealing with work problems, no longer thinking about confronting the common phenomena in the industry, like a stone with edges and corners being polished more and more round and smooth.

Isn't this a kind of growth?

But on the road of growth, she will inevitably lose something.

For example, now...

She really wants to lie flat!!!

The three major brands received the reply from Chenxi Entertainment, and their hearts relaxed. Finally, they decided on Seeing Jin Li.

But at the same time, Seeing Jin Li's team also put forward many more requirements than before.

The persons in charge of "Rumengling" and "Tiangong" looked carefully. This requirement was actually no different from first-tier stars in the industry. They had already shot this process many times, so they quickly replied and agreed.

Only "Duomi" was a bit ignorant and half-understood about the process required by Seeing Jin Li's team.

It just so happened that the Duomi advertising department was having a meeting, so the docking department simply transferred Seeing Jin Li's team's thoughts over.
