Chapter 177 - 177 Variety Show
177 Variety Show
Initially, she planned to let Yu Han film in peace during this period of time. However, she went to understand that these two dramas could only be broadcasted at the end of the year.
As a newcomer, Yu Han could accumulate so much popularity in a short period of time. If she did not do anything for the next half a year, she would probably exhaust her popularity very quickly. Hence, even if Yu Han did not plan to market it on a large scale, she had to maintain a certain amount of exposure.
As the third female lead in Director Sun’s drama, she did not have many scenes. Yu Han herself had a foundation in martial arts, so she did not need to participate in the collective training. Hence, if they focused on filming, it would be done in half a month.
As Bai Chao’s television drama was a web drama at the beginning, the script only had 28 episodes. In addition, the setting was simple, so it should be completed in two months.
A job in the entertainment industry was not something that you would only take on tomorrow’s work after completing today’s job. Unless you were a lousy person who could not take on a job, you had to plan your schedule for the next few months, or even half a year or a year in advance.
He Meng had been thinking about this since last night. According to her plan, it would be best if Yu Han could take on a drama with good quality and production team in the second half of the year. However, it was obvious that it was not easy unless they went to President Chen to give the go-ahead. With President Chen’s love for Yu Han, they could choose any resources from Starlight Entertainment.
However, He Meng had been by Yu Han’s side for a period of time and understood her temperament. She knew that Yu Han did not like to rely on her relationship with her two uncles. Hence, although He Meng was a little envious, she did not have the intention to force Yu Han.
Moreover, as a top manager, He Meng had her own pride. If Yu Han relied on Starlight to feed her resources and forcefully pushed her to the top, then anyone could be her manager. Why should they get He Meng to do it?
He Meng was not willing to accept such a completely unchallenging task.
However, He Meng was not really that stubborn. She could not freeload on the resources, but she could still freeload on the insider information.
As the largest management film company in the country, Starlight Entertainment naturally had in-depth cooperation with all the major platforms. She had received news during the company’s meeting this morning that the Kangaroo Platform’s 20th anniversary drama had been set. The platform was screening suitable actors recently.
Through Yu Han, He Meng also found out more undisclosed news from President Chen. For example, Kangaroo Platform attached special importance to this drama, so they spent a lot of money to invite Director Yao Chen to direct this drama.
Director Yao Chen was a director with a godly status in the film industry now. He produced a work every two years on average. Every one of them was good and popular. He was also the constant winner of the three major television festivals.
There was even a joke in the industry that as long as you stepped into Director Yao’s production team, you would already have one foot in the door of the three major television awards. Although this sentence was more or less an exaggeration, it also confirmed Director Yao’s power.
Moreover, Director Yao was not picky about the script because he had an outstanding screenwriter background to begin with. He only switched to directing later. Out of professional habits, no matter what script was in his hands, he would adapt it again to meet his requirements and intentions before preparing to film it.
This was also the reason why Director Yao Chen could continuously produce high-quality works. This was because his ability to modify scripts was superb. He could often modify a boring script to be lively and interesting. Moreover, he had the intention to upgrade it by several octaves.
As long as the news that Director Yao was directing spread, many actors would fight over one of the roles in his film.
As the largest film and television platform in the country, Kangaroo Platform was backed by the largest Internet company in the country. Not only was it rich and imposing, but it had long formed a closed-loop film and television industry chain. It had already worked hard to develop the story from its original IP to film production and broadcasting platform. Hence, it had a certain amount of autonomy in casting even when facing a big director like Director Yao.
Although Kangaroo Platform did not nurture its own artists, it had worked closely with many management companies. However, even so, there was still a difference in the various relationships. Artists who worked well with Kangaroo Platform could obtain more opportunities.
The variety show invitation for the e-sports game in He Meng’s hand was a project of the Kangaroo Platform. As an emerging industry in recent years, e-sports games were undoubtedly favored by young people. Although the fans of the gaming industry usually did not speak out to the public, their fans and their fans’ combat power were unexpectedly strong.
