Becoming a Movie Star, System Only Finished Loading After Ten Years Chapter 107 - 106 Maotai Stock? (Requesting Monthly Ticket)
Qi Hao and Ye Weimin t and confird so basic information for the preparations of "Lost on Journey".
Next is to finalize the filming location and start shooting.
Qi Hao plans to start shooting in November. If it can be finished in over two months, they should be able to return ho for New Year’s Day by January 25th.
anwhile, it won’t delay filming "Wind Sound".
After all, many scenes of "Wind Sound" are shot in Jinn.
While he was eting with Ye Weimin and others, the system, which shouldn’t have had any activity, suddenly gave a new alert.
Fortunately, everyone had a bit too much to drink, so they didn’t notice Qi Hao’s surprise.
[Mainline Mission Activated]
[Mainline Mission 1: Awards are a recognition of an actor’s hard work, and they also enhance their status, popularity, and salary. With the system’s help, the host’s career has skyrocketed, and it’s ti to win a newcor award. Mission Difficulty: Four stars, Ti Limit: 730 days]
[Mission Completion Rewards: Acting Skill 10, Script of "Kung Fu", 2 million shares of Maotai stock]
Mainline Mission?
What does Mainline Mission an?
Qi Hao has been doing tasks given by the system, but he never differentiated between daily tasks and mainline tasks.
How co the mainline task just popped up suddenly?
Anyway, since it was given, let’s do it. Qi Hao has gotten used to doing tasks by now.
Long gone are the days when he was filled with resentnt towards the system for causing him ten years of hardship.
If not for the system forcing him, he might not even bother with those tasks.
Thinking carefully, today is October 29, 2008.
And the system loading success was exactly last year’s Golden Rooster Award ceremony on October 29, when Qi Hao won the Golden Rooster Best Actor.
It seems to be an anniversary, hence the mainline mission.
The mission description indicates it’s about awards.
Qi Hao smiled confidently to himself.
With his current status and ability, winning awards is child’s play.
Especially those awards of not-so-high significance, as long as he participates, the organizers would surely arrange so awards for him.
There’s no way they’d let him leave empty-handed.
However, as Qi Hao continued reading, he was dumbfounded.
Newcor Award?
Qi Hao looked at those three words one by one.
He started questioning his life.
In a hurry to say goodbye to Ye Weimin, Qi Hao went ho and continued to question his life.
Which is harder to get, Best Newcor or Best Actor?
Best Actor, for sure!
In this acting industry, whether you win a newcor award or not doesn’t make you impressive.
No one would boast about a little newcor award for over a decade.
But if you win Best Actor, regardless of your fa, whoever sees you would praise you as impressive.
In 2001 at the Golden lody Awards, Jay Chou perford "Tornado" and competed on stage with Sun Yanzi for Best Newcor Award.
In the end, Sun Yanzi narrowly defeated Jay Chou with an 8:7 score due to her better stage presence, winning the Best Newcor Award.
Unlike other awards, you can only win Best Newcor in your debut year, with only one chance in a lifeti. Thus, Jay Chou was left with a lifelong regret, never able to achieve a Grand Slam at the Golden lody Awards.
Now, Qi Hao’s problem is not that he can’t beat others.
The problem is that he has already been in the industry for over ten years, having acted in several movies.
How could he possibly still win a newcor award?
In other words, if an award ceremony really gave him a newcor award, that ceremony would be ridiculed to death.
It’s an insult.
Moreover, a big issue is that Qi Hao has already won the Best Newcor Award before.
So, it’s even more impossible for him to be given a newcor award now.
What makes it more desperate is that this task rewards 2 million shares of Maotai stock.
Recently, Maotai’s stock price is 84 yuan.
million shares an 168 million!
Geez, even not ntioning 168 million, Qi Hao would be willing to act in a bad film for 16.8 million.
There are always higher mountains, but being unable to afford food is a real worry!
He is now bearing the survival of a team, and if one day, he runs out of money, he would be worse off than when he was at Ziwen.
Besides, seeing others enjoy life makes him envious too.
If he had billions, there would be no need to call "Brother Yang" all the ti. Then, he would say, "Yang, co on, Hao has sothing to discuss with you."
Having billions is not just a dream.
Just this January, Maotai’s stock price was still 230 yuan.
If it’s calculated at 230 yuan, 2 million shares of Maotai stock amount to 4.6 billion.
Coupled with the 6.3 million shares of Penguin worth over 200 million, plus Mrs. Hua’s 3.71 million shares, Qi Hao would be a nearly ten billion super-rich man.
Unfortunately, this year’s financial market collapsed.
Qi Hao’s Penguin stocks dropped from over seventy at the beginning of the year to over thirty.
Even the Maotai stocks he hasn’t gotten shrunk half, plumting from 230 to 84 yuan.
With those free yet unattainable stocks, Qi Hao felt like jumping off the roof, let alone those who bought stocks with real money.
It’s not surprising if soone has irrational thoughts at tis.
Now cos the question, how to complete the dog system’s task?
Qi Hao attempted to persuade the system.
He hoped to use his previously obtained newcor award trophy as a substitute, considering it as having completed the task in advance.
Sadly, the dog system is totally unyielding.
This idiotic system is completely uncommunicative.
It hasn’t even realized that the host has been in the industry for over ten years and is not the "erging talent" it claims.
However, after much thought, Qi Hao really ca up with a new idea.
Since I can’t win the Best Newcor Award in acting...
Why not try for Best Newcor in Music, or Best New Director?
After all, it just says to get a newcor award, not necessarily in acting.
The Best Newcor in Music is the easiest to get.
These days, music awards have increasingly lower value, you just need to show up, and they’ll give you an award.
No need for any PR at all.
But music awards have a problem, and it’s a big one.
Qi Hao is one of the four big young male stars, the top idol in Inner Entertainnt. For soone like him to enter the music world, it’s basically just cross-industry play, and he wouldn’t attend any music award ceremonies at all.
Because music is too low for them.
The Inner Entertainnt circle isn’t that absolute, top figures from each circle are all leaders in the entire entertainnt industry.
Like a top diva or a Princess Consort, you can’t say she’s inferior to Qi Hao, the Golden Rooster Best Actor.
However, generally speaking, Movies > TV > Music, is not incorrect.
If Qi Hao went to a music award ceremony, even if they didn’t give him the Best Singer of the Year, they’d at least give him the Most Popular Male Singer of the Year.
Giving him a newcor award?
Wouldn’t that be an insult to this super idol?
So, music categories aren’t reliable unless Qi Hao sends soone to negotiate directly.
"Don’t give Best Singer, give Best Newcor!"
Absolutely insane!
Qi Hao thought it over and decided to tackle both paths.
He wants to release an album for a music newcor award and direct a film for the Best New Director award.
If I can’t hit either...
Damn, I’m so aweso, how could I possibly not hit one?
As long as I hit one, I’ll beco a Maotai shareholder.
Penguin plus Maotai... just ask yourself, isn’t that aweso—falling awesoly.
If I hit both, no big loss either.
But Qi Hao used to despise people who were always trying to cross industries.
He even advised An Feng about this.
Saying, if you want to pursue acting, focus on improving your acting skills, only then can you go far.
And the result?
Now he also wants to cross industries.
Sure enough, people always beco what they hate.
When Qi Hao announced he wanted to release an album and direct a movie himself, everyone in the company thought he was crazy.
Luckily, they’re in studio mode now.
The whole studio is there to serve Qi Hao. Whatever Qi Hao wants to do becos the company’s goal.
Moreover, the main task has a very long ti limit, a full 730 days, which is two years.
Normally, that’s certainly enough ti.
But Qi Hao hopes to complete the task within a year.
This way, a new main task might be released next year.
Who knows, just by completing tasks, he might beco the richest man in the mainland.
To beco a director, Qi Hao needs a script. The system had rewarded quite a few, but they’ve all expired.
He has to buy scripts from outside.
Qi Hao entrusted the task to his manager, Zhang Nan.
With this King of Competition’s capability, he’ll surely gather so scripts for him in the shortest ti.
As for the album, Qi Hao contacted Jin Dazhou.
As soon as Jin Dazhou saw Qi Hao, he imdiately greeted him with a warm hug.
Qi Hao had introduced him to do the music work for "Wait and See."
Although it’s not a big job, it at least lets him have a good New Year’s Day.
So, in Jin Dazhou’s eyes, Qi Hao is like a god of wealth.
"No, no, I still like your previous rebellious self."
Qi Hao pushed him away. Two grown n hugging, it was too cringeworthy.
Last ti they t, this guy was sharp-tongued, teasing about his rumored girlfriends and dissing him for wanting to hire a million-dollar mixer.
In just a few days, he’s completely bowed to money.
"Ahem," Jin Dazhou obediently raised his chin, "Any recomndations for ?"
"We’re starting shooting a new movie in a few days, and I’ll recomnd you for the soundtrack then."
Qi Hao drew a pie for him.
"Alright, thank you."
Jin Dazhou was just about to bow but suddenly rembered to stay rebellious and quickly returned to his cool deanor.
"This ti, I’m here to ask you to help make an album, from song collection to recording, it has to be completed in the shortest ti possible with quality guaranteed. Do you have ti?"
Qi Hao decided to trust Jin Dazhou, a professional.
"In the shortest ti, with quality guaranteed, you have so many demands!" Jin Dazhou went rebellious again.
"Yes, quality guaranteed, money... is not an issue!"
Compared to Maotai stocks worth billions, the money needed for making an album is negligible.
"Ahem, Hao, rest assured, it will be quality guaranteed!"
Screw being rebellious, you said money is not an issue, how can I be rebellious then?
These wealthy spendthrifts are my favorites.
Jin Dazhou realized that whether his studio could keep running depended on Qi Hao.
