Chapter 802: Going on the Spring Festival Gala?

Her grievances with 'Huayun' came more from the grievances with the former editor-in-chief.

Large companies had corresponding rules and regulations, but the editor-in-chief had great authority, and it was very easy to break the rules.

Seeing Jin Li herself didn't have any special feelings about 'Huayun', one of the four top journals.

Since the previous editor-in-chief had already been fired and a new editor-in-chief had been replaced, then this cooperation...

Seeing Jin Li glanced at the business plan in her hand, it wasn't impossible.

The next day, she took the initiative to call Sister Fang.

As soon as Sui Lingfang picked up the phone, she joked: "You called so quickly, it seems you are very interested in that model talent show variety."

Seeing Jin Li chuckled, "Sister Fang, you understand me."

Sui Lingfang: "That's right, ever since I saw the plan for that talent show variety, I felt you would probably be quite interested."

Many of Seeing Jin Li's investments had passed through her hands, so she knew which projects Seeing Jin Li was more interested in.

Seeing Jin Li liked projects like this that purely required money without needing to hold a position or expend effort very much.

It was just that she hadn't invested in such a large scale before, only investing in some small variety shows, casually throwing in one or two million.

According to normal market rates, to secure 20% of the shares for the variety show 'I Am Who I Am', one had to invest at least between eight million and twelve million.

This time, letting Seeing Jin Li occupy 20% by only taking out one million was the sincerity 'Huayun' sent to seek peace.

Sui Lingfang asked again: "So you have decided to participate in the investment of this project? Let's agree first, if Huayun invites you to appear on this variety show, I don't hope for you to go."

Seeing Jin Li never had the idea of appearing on a model variety show, and asked back:

"I'm not a model, wouldn't I be laughed at if I went? I definitely won't go, I'll just be a boss behind the scenes."

Sui Lingfang: "Since you've decided to invest, it's equivalent to accepting 'Huayun's' peace offering. I heard that their February New Year's grand cover this year hasn't confirmed the candidate yet; I guess Editor-in-Chief Qi Tang will invite you."

Seeing Jin Li said calmly: "Then I'll take the time to shoot it. I've had a relaxed winter break; 'Invisible Secret' is said to only start filming in April, so I shouldn't be very busy during this period."

Sui Lingfang chuckled, "Do you have no count of your own fame?"

The expression on Seeing Jin Li's face stiffened; she had a bad premonition.

Sui Lingfang: "I've been looking for people to coordinate the schedule for entering the crew; 'Invisible Secret' was previously said to start filming in the summer, but later it was changed to start filming in April."

"Every time the crew adjusts, the announcements I arrange for you will also be adjusted accordingly."

She paused, and said earnestly: "Don't worry, I won't tire you out, but I won't let you be too idle either."

"Many brand activities and interviews want to invite you to attend. You were studying before, and the schedules didn't match, so you've missed many activities, but this time you can't hide anymore."

"As a star, you still need basic exposure. Operating when it's time to operate is also a responsibility to the brand."

These words persuaded Seeing Jin Li.

She was indeed quite lazy, but there was one point: her sense of responsibility was also beyond reproach.

For brands that hadn't signed an endorsement, she wouldn't participate if she didn't want to, but for brands that had signed long-term endorsements, maintaining the brand image was the most basic obligation of an endorser.

Seeing Jin Li only hoped that Sister Fang wouldn't arrange her schedule too full, letting her have a comfortable New Year.

She had just raised this thought and wanted to communicate with Sister Fang again, but who would have thought that Sister Fang seemed to know her thoughts in advance and said:

"Don't think about it, you have to go on the Spring Festival Gala this year."

This sentence silenced Seeing Jin Li.

After a good while, Seeing Jin Li said: "The Spring Festival Gala starts selecting people in September, starts rehearsals in October, then constantly adjusts the program, and basically everything is decided in December."

"It's already January now, how could I still have the opportunity to go on the Spring Festival Gala? This is unscientific!"

Sui Lingfang was helpless: "I also received the notification today. The general director of the Spring Festival Gala production team contacted me urgently, asking if you have any schedule before the Spring Festival."

"Your schedule is still quite loose, so I replied that you have, and then the director issued an invitation to me, hoping you would come to participate in a stage performance."

Seeing Jin Li: "... Pardon me for being blunt, the time is too late, this is too much of a child's play."

"And with the rigor of the Spring Festival Gala, how could they invite people to participate in the program only in January? Did you receive a scam call?"

Sui Lingfang explained: "I have the general director's WeChat and mobile phone number, ensuring it is true."

"During the initial selection in September, the director had invited you, but at that time you were still in the crew and had no time to toss about, so I helped you refuse."

"To be honest, I didn't expect him to come to the door at this point. When I received his call this morning and heard him propose wanting to invite you to perform a program, I thought it was for you to perform at the Lantern Festival Gala."

"Later, I felt the time didn't match. Not to mention that the time between the Lantern Festival and the Spring Festival Gala is very close, and I was afraid that the program had already been arranged, just talking about the director, he doesn't seem to be responsible for the Lantern Festival stage either."

Seeing Jin Li calmed down quickly and pondered: "So you helped me accept it?"

Sui Lingfang: "I refused twice, but the director tried his best to invite you, and I couldn't refuse a third time, so I helped you agree. If I refuse any further, it would be a bit offensive."

"You don't call me, and I would have to call you. The time is tight; you have to go to the scene for rehearsal tomorrow. After the exam, you don't need to come back; just live near the Spring Festival Gala stage."

Seeing Jin Li still didn't quite believe it: "It's really not fake?"

Sui Lingfang said affirmatively: "It's real, and the director said the incident was sudden, fearing that the rehearsal would be too late, so he would let you sing the Pink Girls' signature song."

If it wasn't singing an unfamiliar song, Seeing Jin Li still had some confidence.

Before hanging up the phone, she still let Sui Lingfang go and inquire about the reason.

At this time, they both thought that an actor had an accident temporarily, so other stars were needed to urgently fill the vacancy.

But this actually didn't make sense.

The Spring Festival Gala would go through several program list adjustments, and some programs would be killed, and those programs themselves were also rehearsed very maturely.

If a program really couldn't be performed due to star problems, the most correct approach was to fish one up from the killed programs.

Instead of stuffing another star in again.

On the phone, the general director was not convenient to say much, only saying that he very much hoped to invite Seeing Jin Li, and Sister Fang couldn't ask too much.

Thus it became a cold case.

After Seeing Jin Li and Sui Lingfang communicated well, she first recorded the important schedule, and sent a message to Gu Cheng, asking if any star participating in the Spring Festival Gala had suddenly been injured.

Although she knew that Gu Cheng might not have news either, she still couldn't help but ask.

After all, the Spring Festival Gala program was also confidential to the stars.

Everyone only knew the program they performed, and didn't know other people's programs.

Even the rehearsal time, each program was arranged differently, would not collide, and the confidentiality was very good.

Zhang Guang had planned very early to let the March Days regroup in January, recommended the March Days group to the Spring Festival Gala general director to perform together on the Spring Festival Gala in advance, and successfully secured a program.

So launching the new album on New Year's Day was just the second plan Zhang Guang made; the first plan pushed was the Spring Festival Gala.

Seeing Jin Li and Gu Cheng went in and out together at school; Gu Cheng couldn't hide it and didn't need to hide it; Seeing Jin Li had long known that he would board the Spring Festival Gala stage again this year.

After Gu Cheng finished the announcement, he saw this WeChat message, raised his eyebrows, and directly video-called over.
