Starting from joining Tencent Video

Chapter 208 Heroes of Fire, Guilty Heart

After the annual meeting, Chen Jingyuan did not leave Yanjing immediately.

The main topic of discussion was the film "The Bravest" with Chen Wu.

Chen Wu had already purchased the relevant copyrights.

Chen Wu is quite efficient; the next step is to prepare the film crew.

Also, penguins can't eat alone; they have to share a portion of their food.

Many companies were initially hesitant about the Penguin project.

Big companies and big productions don't guarantee success.

However, after hearing that the film project was proposed by Chen Jingyuan, each of these companies changed their tune!

There are so many people who want to participate, such as Huayi, Enlight Media, Wanda, etc.

Needless to say, China Film Group and Shanghai Film Group also wanted to get involved.

Even Chen Wu couldn't help but feel a little emotional; the name Chen Jingyuan was so appealing these days.

"At least until Chen Jingyuan fails, I still have complete trust in him!"

Chen Wu couldn't help but sigh and say, "This is what reputation is all about."

Film projects, in particular, sometimes have a bit of a mystical element to them, and many companies are superstitious about success.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many directors whose first film determines their fate.

If the first one is unsuccessful, it's unlikely there will be a second chance.

Of course, those with background capital are an exception, since these people have the option to make mistakes.

Even if you fail, you'll still have another chance!

The most obvious example should be Rikutaro, who can be willful just because he has a powerful background.

The determination of investment shares is not related to Chen Jingyuan.

Tencent Pictures has already accounted for 20% of the investment in this film.

Chen Jingyuan did not want the lead; instead, he handed it over to Chen Wu's Tencent Pictures.

Which companies to partner with depends on Chen Wu's choices.

Tencent Pictures' main business is not film, and this year it also has "The Wandering Earth," which it invested heavily in early on.

In addition to investing in "The Bravest" and Lan Ke's "Better Days".

All things considered, the investment in film has been quite substantial.

These movies are all expected to be released this year, which is enough for Tencent Penguin Pictures.

Negotiating a film project can take quite a few days, including contacting the director to scout locations, etc.

Before we knew it, it was already late January!

Most things regarding the movie "The Bravest" have been agreed upon.

During this period, Chen Jingyuan spent most of his time discussing matters with Chen Wu.

Another part of my time was spent dealing with some matters related to Tencent Penguin Pictures.

For example, Tencent Video's year-end bonus, and who should be promoted, etc.

All of these need to be reviewed and signed by Chen Jingyuan!

This matter is quite important to Chen Jingyuan, since his subordinates are all hoping for promotions and raises.

Every achievement needs to be reviewed, and he will do his best to facilitate any potential promotion.

As for Chen Jingyuan, it would be extremely difficult for him to be promoted in terms of both position and rank.

Moreover, if he wants to be promoted, he must be approved by Tencent's senior management.

Not only Chen Jingyuan, but Wang Juan is almost the same!

Even promotions to mid-level positions are not easy; the higher you go, the harder it gets.

Without certain achievements, promotion is simply impossible.

However, Tencent Penguin Pictures' performance is still quite good.

Your job rank may be hard to advance, but your bonuses will definitely be substantial.

After resolving the issues surrounding the film project "Blazing Heroes," Chen Jingyuan left Yanjing.

Instead of returning to Shanghai, he went to the set of "Better Days".

Fortunately, Tencent Penguin Pictures has invested in the project, and it would be unreasonable for my mom and the others not to go.

Afterwards, he will travel to Hengdian, where the world created by Southeast Tiger will be fully explored in "Starting from Joining Tencent Video". He will also participate in the start of filming for "Joy of Life".

This is Tencent Penguin Pictures' big opening film of the year, so as the president of Tencent Penguin Pictures, I need to pay attention to it.

渝城

Chen Jingyuan didn't come to the film set in a big way, but he was still recognized by many people.

The popularity of Tencent's executive team has remained consistently high, and Chen Jingyuan's popularity has been steadily rising.

After all, the more abstract something is, the more popular it becomes!

Plus, this is the Sichuan-Chongqing region!

Chen Jingyuan also has the added advantage of being from the same hometown, which attracts even more attention.

Even Chen Jingyuan felt somewhat helpless; he really didn't want this kind of attention.

Even the previous incident of staying overnight to get hair done was suppressed!

It's always been the entertainment industry where celebrity news covers up scandals of executives, but now it seems the tables have turned.

Now that he'd been discovered, Chen Jingyuan simply had his assistant buy some things to visit the set.

The crew of "Better Days"

News of Chen Jingyuan's visit to the set spread quickly.

However, it did not affect the normal filming, mainly because Liu Yulan was there to oversee the production.

Zeng Guoxiang still wanted to greet President Chen, at least to get closer to him.

The problem is that Liu Yulan is President Chen's mother, which is a very powerful figure.

Since this person said the crew would continue filming as scheduled, Zeng Guoxiang naturally couldn't refute it.

You can't confuse the King and Queen!

Of course, Zeng Guoxiang was unaware that Chen Jingyuan didn't actually care about these rituals.

The best reward for him is that the crew can make a good film.

Upon arriving at the film set, Chen Jingyuan watched quietly from the sidelines without any intention of disturbing the crew.

The mother and son asked each other about their situations.

Liu Yulan must have known about the annual meeting.

Liu Yulan wasn't in the mood to laugh at him; instead, she realized that her son actually held considerable influence within Tencent.

Being able to perform on stage with Little Ma is, in a sense, a form of recognition.

It must be said that Liu Yulan has become a bit more sensitive since taking over the company.

"Mom, I also closed a movie project recently."

Chen Jingyuan mainly talked about the "Blazing Heroes" project.

"It's a pity that none of the company's artists are available!?"

Liu Yulan couldn't help but sigh and say that it must be a good project that her son invested in and set up.

Being able to land a role can significantly boost an actor's popularity.

However, Liu Yulan's words made Chen Jingyuan feel a little guilty.

Because he arranged a role for Meng Ziyi, filming for "Ever Night" should be able to finish before the end of the year.

The filming of "The Bravest" is scheduled to begin after the new year, which will not delay the schedule.

Chen Jingyuan made this arrangement because Meng Ziyi was more suitable.

After the movie "The Bravest", there is another movie produced by Tencent, "The Untamed".

Meng Ziyi actually participated in this drama before her rebirth, but it caused quite a few controversies.

With him involved, we definitely can't afford to cause any more trouble.

Basically, Meng Ziyi's life this year has been arranged perfectly.

Once Meng Ziyi's reputation is completely reversed after the airing of several dramas last year and this year.

She could even become a rising star, which, although it took a few years, is still acceptable.

In fact, Meng Ziyi has only been out of school for a short time.

To be honest, not many of the students from this period became famous.

Chen Yao might be the only one with some fame, but her popularity has been declining since she rose to fame in 15.

In terms of resources, it's just so-so. Although there are some resources, none of them are enough to make them stand out.

But overall, compared to many people, it's actually quite good; at least Chen Yao was once popular.

It has made quite a splash in the industry, and it's also influenced by the era of internet traffic.

Chen Yao earns several million yuan a year, which is quite good compared to many people.
