Chapter 1037 Conflict

Ye Tianlong naturally didn't know about the conversation between Zhao Ditian and Zhan Qinglou. After a tiring day, he slept until dawn.

After getting up in the morning and eating breakfast, he and Qin Tianhe made medicine together. They also checked the conditions of the flowers and birds, and were relieved to see that they were full of vitality.

This means that Zhao Ditian spent a lot of time on it.

After checking the conditions of the flowers and birds, Ye Tianlong received a call from Nangong Xiong and learned that Mu Shengsheng was out of danger, which made Ye Tianlong breathe a sigh of relief.

He asked Nangong Xiong to stay in Shencheng temporarily and take good care of the Mu siblings. He would let Shanmao and Big Dog take over the business of the Dragon Department.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Tianlong was just about to bask in the sun, when Zhao Yaoyao called again and asked if he was free to take some promotional photos today.

Ye Tianlong didn't put on any airs and drove over after asking about the location.

At 10:30 in the morning, Ye Tianlong showed up at his destination, which is a large-scale multi-functional film and television city that integrates tourism, film and television shooting, and film and television training.

It is the third largest film and television location base based on the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties after the National Television Wuxi Film and Television City and Zhuozhou Film and Television City.

The most famous one in the city is Suzhou Garden, which has a quiet environment and exquisite architecture. It attracts many film crews to shoot scenes every day.

Ye Tianlong found Zhao Yaoyao in a corner of Suzhou Garden.

Zhao Yaoyao was wearing a pure white shirt with an elegant blue pattern on the collar, a black skirt underneath, and dark black high heels.

She is dressed very simply, but her beautiful figure is wrapped in exquisite curves. She is simple and fashionable, but also sexy for her age.

"Master Ye, good morning. I'm sorry to take up your precious time."

Seeing Ye Tianlong appear, Zhao Yaoyao greeted him with a smile and gave Ye Tianlong a hug. The fragrant breeze hit her, her body was soft and her voice was soft:

"It's just out of publicity that I have to call you."

Ye Tianlong patted the woman's back, then smiled and let go of the beauty in his arms: "It's okay. Anyway, I'm free today, you can arrange it as you like."

"Master Ye, I want to tell you three pieces of good news first."

Zhao Yaoyao pulled Ye Tianlong to sit down in a pavilion: "First, you were shortlisted for the last promotion competition, and the judges unanimously approved your promotion."

"Your "Yungong Xunyin" and "Life is more than what you see now" are the first and second most searched, on-demand and downloaded this month."

Zhao Yaoyao's pretty face was full of pride: "You are so angry right now."

Ye Tianlong took off his sunglasses and smiled leisurely: "Really? It seems that I will have to wear an extra hat in the future."

Ye Tianlong was not too surprised by this result. After all, with so many pairs of eyes watching and the disparity in standards, how could the judges dare to mess around?

If you really eliminated yourself, the judges will probably be scolded by the audience.

Hearing Ye Tianlong's words, Zhao Yaoyao smiled sweetly: "No matter how many hats you wear, they can't hide your sharp edge."

"Southern Television attaches great importance to you now, because your appearance not only revitalizes this weak program, but also attracts many big advertisements."

Zhao Yaoyao did not hide it from Ye Tianlong: "I can tell you this, your participation has increased the advertising fee of this program by 20%."

Ye Tianlong smiled faintly: "Really? I have brought so many benefits to the TV station, should they give me three to five million?"

For Ye Tianlong, all praise is meaningless, only real money is king.

"The second thing is that Du Wenxing has been fired by the TV station. The TV station hopes that you will continue to compete."

Zhao Yaoyao said softly: "And every time you appear, you will be paid one million. Although the money is not much, this is the first of its kind in a talent show."

Ye Tianlong was a little surprised when he heard this: "Did you really fire Du Wenxing? It seems that the TV station is somewhat sincere. Okay, I will continue to compete."

In Ye Tianlong's imagination, the only way the TV station could survive was to demote Du Wenxing and ask him to come over and apologize to him. Unexpectedly, he was fired directly.

Then, Ye Tianlong changed the topic: "Where's the third good news?"

"The third news... is good news for other audition artists, but it may not be attractive to you. The main reason is that I can't make up my mind."

Zhao Yaoyao looked a little hesitant: "So I want you to make a decision."

Ye Tianlong sat up slightly: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Yaoyao pinched her clothes and said: "Southern TV hopes to sign a long-term contract with you for five years, so that you can become an artist of Southern TV."

"This contract is much better than Du Wenxing's agreement. It's 200 million a year, all-inclusive, and no more than 40 hours of work per week."

She laid out the conditions of the TV station: "My food, clothing, housing and transportation will all be paid for by the company."

"This is really a big deal."

Ye Tianlong smiled when he heard this: "It is rumored that a popular traffic niche took three months to film a popular IP TV series and only received 100 million yuan in remuneration."

"I am a talent show singer who is nothing, and the TV station paid me 200 million to 'support' me. Your station manager is so courageous."

He leaned forward and looked at Zhao Yaoyao: "Isn't he worried that I can't even make two million a year?"

Zhao Yaoyao smiled bitterly: "Of course I'm worried, but the leader of Southern TV Station is a ruthless character and a person who takes the wrong approach."

"He has only been in office for three months and is in urgent need of a feat, so he wants to take a gamble. He will use five years and one billion to bet that you will become the next Liu Tianzi."

"If we lose, the TV station will lose one billion in five years."

Zhao Yaoyao told the top leader: "But if you win the bet, you really become the second Liu Tianzi, and the TV station will make a lot of money in the next five years."

Ye Tianlong was stunned: "Liu Tianzi?"

Then he smiled faintly: "You, the director, are addicted to gambling. Doesn't he know that Liu Tianzi is a myth?"

Zhao Yaoyao brushed her hair and sighed: "She is indeed a myth."

According to public information, Liu Tianzi came from a small place and joined Happy Girls at the age of 18. Before taking the stage, she was penniless and looked like an ugly duckling.

Countless people ridiculed her taste and background, thinking that she was blind because of her ability to sing. Even the three judges mocked her as a waste of time.

After taking the stage, an opera excerpt from "Les Misérables" came out of Liu Tianzi's mouth, shocking all the judges and the audience of 500 meters.

After she finished singing, the judges collectively bowed to her and apologized, and the audience gave her a three-minute round of applause, which made her unable to even walk off the stage.

Her preliminary video had over 100 million views, and three months later she released an album, which sold 10 million copies in ten days, making her the album sales champion that year.

The sales volume of countless big-name singers in one year is not as much as what she sells in ten days. Liu Tianzi's net worth has also skyrocketed like a rocket.

From an ugly duckling who paid 88 yuan out of her own pocket to sign up, she has become a star with an appearance fee of 5 million per hour, and it depends on whether she has a schedule.

Many local TV stations in China once wanted to invite her to a New Year's Eve party and paid her 20 million a night, but they still couldn't let her go.

"Southern TV stations think highly of me."

Ye Tianlong did not discuss Liu Tianzi in depth. He looked at Zhao Yaoyao and smiled lightly: "Sister Yaoyao, do you think I should sign this contract?"

"I have no idea."

Zhao Yaoyao sighed quietly: "If it were exchanged for 20 million, I would definitely refuse without hesitation, but for 200 million, I'm not easy to judge."

"Because this is an astronomical figure, and if you spend so much money, the TV station will package you very well."

She told Ye Tianlong honestly: "I don't dare to make the decision without permission, so I came here to ask your opinion."

"reject!"

Ye Tianlong could see that Zhao Yaoyao was conflicted, so he smiled, stretched and said: "Work forty hours a week, eight-hour system."

"The TV station has spent so much money and will definitely squeeze out every minute and every second. The weekend sounds like a weekend, but it will be gone if you sleep in."

Ye Tianlong looked very depressed: "In this case, how can I still have time to pick up girls and drink?"

Zhao Yaoyao was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Understood."

She finally understood Ye Tianlong's pulse. Beauty comes first, money comes last.

Ye Tianlong suddenly said something else: "If we reject the TV station like this, will it be unhappy and block us directly?"

Zhao Yaoyao shook her head gently: "No, you still have huge commercial value."

"After working with you on this draft, the TV station can earn at least 50 to 60 million, which will bring more benefits than breaking up."

She made a judgment: "Although I cannot extract your future commercial value, it is still a good thing to make a fortune from you now."

"That makes sense."

Ye Tianlong nodded, and then remembered something: "You asked me to come to this film and television city today, shouldn't you just talk about these three things?"

Zhao Yaoyao slapped her head: "It's like this. The two songs you sang are very popular. You have great hopes of winning the championship. The TV station wants to create a little mystery."

"They have removed all positive links from your singing of these two songs and instead placed a seven-leaf mask on your face."

"Every time you sing a song and advance successfully, a leaf will be removed."

"In the semi-finals, if you win the championship, take off the last leaf and reveal your true face."

Zhao Yaoyao told Ye Tianlong her intention: "The TV station hopes to use this mystery to gather popularity and let more curious people participate."

"I called you here today to take some photos wearing leaf masks and give them to Southern TV Station for publicity."

She also pointed to a few people not far away: "Photographers and costume designers have been sent."

"It seems that the TV station is indeed interested in me. It spared no effort to package me. I must meet your station director if I have the opportunity."

Ye Tianlong replied crisply: "Okay, I'll take this photo."

Zhao Yaoyao smiled: "Then let's get started."

Ye Tianlong followed Zhao Yaoyao to change clothes, wearing a leaf mask customized by the TV station, and took more than 300 photos in one go.

After more than two hours of tossing, Ye Tianlong finally completed the task, and the photographer and costume designer left with satisfaction.

As soon as Ye Tianlong changed his clothes in the locker room and came out, Zhao Yaoyao came over with a sweet smile and took out a tissue to wipe Ye Tianlong's sweat:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, you've worked hard today. I'll treat you to a meal."

She looked at the time. It was already one o'clock and it was time to have lunch.

"I should be the one saying I'm sorry. I'm so willful and have so many demands, which makes you, an agent, very frustrated."

Ye Tianlong smiled and said to Zhao Yaoyao: "Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner."

As the two walked outside, they heard the sound of something being smashed in front of them, and then an angry voice came:

"Get out of here!"

"What the hell, you're just like me, the king of heaven, when you're famous. Isn't it possible that my movie won't work without your inscriptions and singing?"

The voice was very hot: "Not only do you have the left hand and the right hand, but you also dare to sit down and raise the price. How shameless is it?"

"Get out of here, I don't want you to write inscriptions or sing the theme song."
