Chapter 459: Dawn Entertainment's Big Changes

Jin Li: "Do you know what the specific matter is?"

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang shook her head: "I asked the person in charge, but they were very hesitant and didn't really want to tell me, only saying it was related to the Knowledge Planet column you proposed."

Jin Li suddenly remembered that when the "Knowledge Planet" column was first proposed within Maozhao, the senior management at Maozhao were not optimistic about it, believing it wasn't worth putting much effort into, so they gave it a three-month trial period.

If the data didn't meet the targets within three months, this column would be shut down.

It was also at that time that she learned Maozhao had only opened the "Knowledge Planet" column to maintain a good relationship with her, created specifically to coax her.

It was just that Maozhao didn't expect her to be quite invested in this column, proposing many insightful ideas, and she even managed to convince the person in charge of this column.

The person in charge of the "Knowledge Planet" column was a very slick person; he understood the intentions of Maozhao's senior management—everything should be based on her opinions, coaxing her whenever possible, and none of them were treating it as a serious project.

However, the person in charge was moved by the ideas she proposed, feeling that opening this column had great potential, and he actually followed her ideas to submit a proposal to Maozhao's internal management for independently building an app specifically for "Knowledge Planet."

There was an uproar within Maozhao; the senior management didn't want to waste time, energy, and money on this, which is why they set the three-month bet.

Jin Li calculated the time; three months shouldn't be up yet. Could it be that the person in charge couldn't hold on anymore?

Jin Li couldn't help but ask: "Is the person in charge very anxious?"

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang nodded: "They do seem quite anxious, but if you really can't spare the time to attend, it's not a problem."

She added: "This last sentence was also specifically said to me by the person in charge of the 'Knowledge Planet' column; they don't want to affect you."

But this column was opened under her guidance, and Jin Li also wanted to know if it could be Match Match Match Match Match Made to work.

She studied on the live streaming network, bringing a batch of netizens specifically for learning to Maozhao, but one tree cannot make a forest; Maozhao needs to introduce more learning bloggers to gather a better learning atmosphere for this group of netizens.

Jin Li pondered for a while and said: "It's hard to explain clearly over an online meeting. I'm free tomorrow, so I'll make a trip to Maozhao in person to attend their internal meeting."

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang raised an eyebrow, feeling that Jin Li was quite invested in "Knowledge Planet," even more so than in her entertainment career, so she said:

"I'll go reply to them now. We can discuss the specifics in detail after you come to Dawn Entertainment."

An hour later, Jin Li returned to the company.

Standing outside the company's main entrance, Jin Li looked up and discovered a huge "Dawn Entertainment" sign hanging outside the building.

She couldn't help but smile.

Seeing her smile, Driver Xiao Cheng and Chen Lin looked up, discovered the huge sign as well, and couldn't help but smile along with her.

Chen Lin said happily: "It looks quite impressive. People who don't know might think Dawn Entertainment has rented out this entire office building."

Driver Xiao Cheng added: "Who would have thought they only rented three floors, and the third floor was only rented last year when the department expanded."

Jin Li said with a smile: "I haven't been back to the company for a long time, and I've missed it. Let's go in."

Previously, Dawn Entertainment rented the first and second floors, and the office building gave them a discount and allowed Dawn Entertainment to use the main entrance; companies renting the upper floors could only reach them directly via the back elevator.

Last year, after Dawn Entertainment expanded and rented the third floor as well, they discussed it with the office building's owner, saying that as an entertainment company, artists come and go frequently, and the back entrance is easily exploited by paparazzi to sneak into the company and secretly photograph the artists' private lives.

Out of safety considerations, Dawn Entertainment wanted to occupy the usage rights of the back entrance as well.

After all, the back entrance connects to the first floor; unless a wall is rebuilt to separate it, it's impossible to partition.

But once a wall is built, the company's artists wouldn't be able to use the back entrance either.

The office building's owner was easy to talk to; he let them build a wall and leave an iron gate that requires a key to open.

But Dawn Entertainment felt this wasn't secure enough; the back entrance was still being used by the upper floors, and artists entering and exiting through the back could easily run into workers. What if these workers were also star-chasers?

After much back and forth, Dawn Entertainment also wanted to occupy the usage rights of the back entrance.

As it happened, the office building owner's child was a fan of Jin Li, and the owner had a good impression of Jin Li and didn't want her to be disturbed by paparazzi and extreme fans, so he ultimately agreed.

However, the owner required Dawn Entertainment to resolve the access passage for the upper floors.

When Jin Li heard about this at the time, she was also guessing how Dawn Entertainment would solve it, as there were only elevators at the front and back.

As it turned out, Dawn Entertainment Match Match Match Match Match Made a bold move and installed an additional elevator on the side of the office building, making all workers on the third floor and above use the side entrance.

Jin Li was dragged by Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang to watch the fun and saw the side passage Dawn Entertainment specifically Match Match Match Match Match Made for the floors above the third; it wasn't as spacious as the back entrance, but it was acceptable.

Moreover, the side entrance is specifically separated by a wall, far from the first-floor lobby, and the two paths don't connect, effectively separating the artists from the workers.

At that time, Jin Li heard Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang say: "The boss is quite ambitious, specifically expanding the department to develop artist business, saying that one day they will rent out the entire office building."

Jin Li entered the first-floor lobby, recalling the huge sign she saw outside earlier, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart:

Although they haven't rented the whole building yet, just from the appearance, one can see Dawn Entertainment's ambition.

Without interfering with her, the company is enterprising and getting better and better, which makes Jin Li quite happy.

Who wouldn't hope for their company to be a bit stronger?

If the company is stronger, artists won't be bullied when running errands outside.

"Hiss—" The sound of Chen Lin gasping reached her ears, and Driver Xiao Cheng, who was walking in front, also stopped specifically. Jin Li came back to her senses, looked up, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"What is this? Why were my and Meng Meng's images Match Match Match Match Match Made into an exhibition hall?"

In the past, the first floor was quite empty, only designed with a reception room and a front desk.

But now, Dawn Entertainment has utilized all the empty space to design two exhibition halls.

One exhibition hall is for her, and the other is for Meng Meng, all displaying the honors they have won in the industry, the works they have filmed, the well-known variety shows they have participated in, as well as various standees, peripheral derivatives, and Q-version images.

Jin Li walked to her portrait; this painting shows her under the sunlight, holding a bouquet of fresh flowers with a bright and charming smile, with wheat fields like a golden ocean behind her.

She recalled that this was taken when she was doing public welfare activities for agricultural assistance.

Below the portrait were lines of introductions, and the text was quite large:

Jin Li, a first-tier artist under Dawn Entertainment.

Representative work: "No Survivors," winner of the XXX year niche art film box office championship...

"Dream Builder," winner of the XXX year summer box office...

"Assassination," winner of the XX annual audience's favorite youth film on the XXX platform...

"Leisurely Slow Life," winner of the "XXX Year Audience's Favorite Variety Show Award," winner of the "XX Platform Audience's Favorite Variety Show Award"...

In addition to introducing her achievements in film and television, it also listed all the first-tier brand endorsements she holds, among which the brand "Fang Fei" was specifically painted in gold.

Just.

Quite flashy.

It Match Match Match Match Match Made Jin Li shy.

Compared to other first-tier stars, her film, television, and variety show resume is actually a bit thin, after all, taking the boutique route cannot be compared with quantity.

But in terms of endorsements, her achievements are already on par with popular first-tier artists.

And if you look closely at the film and television resume, they were all obtained in the last two years, almost every one of them is a hit, or they have stirred up super high discussion on the internet.

Jin Li's achievements in film and television are already quite dazzling.

It's just that her achievements in endorsements are even more dazzling.

Chen Lin looked at the introduction the company listed for Jin Li and suddenly said: "I think brands are much more sensitive than those people who invest in film and television dramas; they know better which star is popular or not."

Driver Xiao Cheng suggested: "Sister Jin Li, do you want to take a photo with your standee, holding your Q-version image in your hand?"

Jin Li readily agreed: "Okay!"

If Dawn Entertainment hadn't set up an exhibition hall for her, she wouldn't have realized that she had produced quite a lot of works in the past two years.

Hey, she is really too diligent!

So, is it okay to take a proper rest?

Jin Li was originally a bit hesitant about how long to take a vacation after filming "My Mediocre Life," whether to take half a month or a month?

But she has decided now: after filming, she will go into seclusion to study, then take the college entrance exam, and take a vacation until the end of summer break when the exam results come out!

She not only took photos in her own exhibition hall but also ran to Meng Meng's exhibition hall to take photos with her standee.

After taking the photos, Jin Li glanced at them; the phone's built-in soft light and skin smoothing Match Match Match Match Match Made the person in the photo look very soft, her body white and glowing, and she looked to be in great condition.

And her outfit was worn according to the brands Fang Fang Fang Fang Fang Fang Jie matched for her, so she didn't send them to Dawn Entertainment's retouching team and uploaded them directly to her blog.

Before long, fans came one after another to like the post.

【Sister is so beautiful!!】

【Checking in, today's merit +1+2+3+4+5+...】

【Where is this? Why didn't I know there was a Jin Li exhibition today? Dawn Entertainment didn't send out a notice!】

【This lobby looks so familiar, and there's actually Meng Meng's exhibition too. I remember now, isn't this Dawn Entertainment's lobby?!】

【Crying, you're tempting me again... Dawn Entertainment's lobby isn't open to fans. When will you let fans go in to check in? Even if we can't go inside, it would be nice to stand outside and take a photo.】

Xi Xi Sister Meng Ze was surfing the internet and saw a bunch of fans tagging her, only then did she realize Jin Li had posted photos with her standee.

Xi Xi Sister Meng Ze quickly commented: 【!!! Has the company lobby actually become like this? I haven't been back to the company for a long time. Wait for me, I'm rushing back now!】

Jin Li replied to Xi Xi Sister Meng Ze: 【(Crooking finger) Come quickly, let's have hot pot.】

The two are from the same company, so interacting is normal, but this blog post blew up the other members of Pink Girls.

First, Xi Xi Sister Meng Ze forwarded the blog post Jin Li sent to the Pink Girls group, showing off that she actually had an exhibition hall and asking if the others had one.

Others:...

They really didn't ╮(╯_╰)╭

Even Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Qinglian, who is at Tianding Entertainment, didn't have one.

Tianding Entertainment's first floor also has an exhibition hall for outstanding artists, but it only displays photos of the three most outstanding artists, one of whom is the Sanyuetian boy band, and the other two are very outstanding idol artists.

When it comes to producing idols, Tianding Entertainment is professional.

In terms of seniority, just based on the fact that the Pink Girls she was once in almost became an Asian supergroup, Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Qinglian is definitely the leader at Tianding Entertainment.

But it's a pity that imported talent can't compete with local cultivation, and Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Qinglian's popularity is indeed not as good as those two idol artists.

Because of Xi Xi Sister Meng Ze's showing off, the other sisters all clicked on this blog post and used their main accounts to leave comments for Jin Li.

Qiguan Mingzhu: 【Don't invite me to hot pot @Jin Li】

Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Ji Qinglian: 【Where is my hot pot @Jin Li】

Yu Yu Lina: 【Hot pot hot pot @Jin Li】

Gong Gong Zitong: 【Come over here, I'll treat you to some wild hotpot @Jin Li】

The six members of Pink Girls set out together, pushing this blog post by Jin Li to the number one spot on the trending list, and making it the number one most discussed topic across multiple platforms in real-time!

A bunch of content creators seized the opportunity, digging through their video archives; those who had edited videos of Pink Girls spent money to boost their traffic and increase exposure.

Those who hadn't edited videos of Pink Girls stayed up all night to do so, catching this wave of traffic.

The entire internet was swept up in another wave of nostalgia. Influenced by this, the Pink Girls received invitations to many large-scale song and dance variety shows one after another, and even the "slacker queen" Jin Li was not spared—but that is a story for another time.

Jin Li went directly to the third floor of Chenxi Entertainment.

She discovered that the layout of the third floor had changed somewhat; previously, there were independent offices for agents, but this time the offices had been turned into a semi-open, transparent glass layout, with many artists standing at their agents' desks, discussing things with them.

It looked like a place teeming with talent and thriving with prosperity.

Seeing Jin Li arrive, the agents greeted her one after another.

"Jin Li, you're back!"

"Jin Li is back."

"Good afternoon, Jin Li."

Jin Li smiled and responded to each agent, and some artists excitedly greeted her and came over to shake her hand, all of which Jin Li responded to as well.

Driver Xiao Cheng and Chen Qin followed behind her with serious expressions, just like two of the most loyal bodyguards.

Only when they reached Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang's office did everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Unlike the offices outside, Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang still had a dedicated, independent office.

There were also several independent conference rooms next to hers, which appeared to be for holding meetings.

Without waiting for Jin Li to speak, Chen Qin asked curiously, "Why has the layout of the third floor changed so much?"

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang smiled and said, "It was changed last month. The president said this way they can see how agents communicate with artists, putting an end to phenomena like unspoken rules and bullying, and besides, this way they can also tell who is slacking off."

Driver Xiao Cheng commented, "I feel like the latter is the fundamental purpose."

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang had already risen to the management level; unlike ordinary agents, she held shares in Chenxi Entertainment, so no matter how the president reformed things, it wouldn't affect her.

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang: "You all saw the exhibition hall on the first floor, right? That was also drastically changed last month, supposedly to enhance the company's cohesion."

Jin Li said in a low voice, "Can't it be taken down? It's a bit embarrassing to look at."

The other three said in unison, "No!"

Chen Qin: "I think it's quite good; it makes people feel proud."

Driver Xiao Cheng: "You have to show off more so that people know how amazing you are."

Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Sui Lingfang had the final say: "Don't even think about taking it down. Judging by the president's intentions, they are going to continue decorating and making changes, and expanding the scale."

Jin Li:...

Has no one considered the pressure on a salted fish who just wants to lie flat?
