This is the story of how to cultivate a perfect female lead, a "plain and unremarkable" beautiful girl who一步步 grows into an all-around superstar.
Chapter 277 Being hyped
In fact, Gu Qingge still felt very sorry when she saw that "Remembering Jiangnan" had a tendency to be whitewashed.
After all, [Remembering Jiangnan] was previously a very high-quality vest that could cause negative emotions, and it was very efficient in harvesting cultivation jade.
However, what Gu Qingge did not expect was that this song "Guest" which was used to promote "Those Years" would actually make many people imagine "Remembering Jiangnan" as so affectionate.
As we all know, no matter how bad a person is, as long as he makes the female group feel that he is affectionate, he can be easily whitewashed, not to mention that [Remembering Jiangnan] is so talented and a highly paid musician.
When [Remembering Jiangnan] revealed through this song that he was still single, some women who admired his talent or wealth couldn't help but take action.
Gu Qingge discovered that many "socialites" who took the initiative to flirt with her "Remembering Jiangnan" appeared on her Yinyueyun account and Weibo account.
The rhetoric used by some of the "ladies" to flirt with "Remembering Jiangnan" is classic. They say that they don't care how many women the Jiangnan boss has, they just hope to be the inspiration for "Remembering Jiangnan" to write songs.
There are some very talented singer-songwriters in the industry who can basically write a good song after they have been in a relationship and break up. This is the basic operation of talented men and women.
The most outrageous thing is that after the show "Guests" of "Remembering Jiangnan" became a hit, several women have come forward to admit that they are his ex-girlfriends!
They also expressed their willingness to give [Remembering Jiangnan] another chance to reconcile...
I just don’t know how these women will react when they find out that [Remembering Jiangnan] is actually a beautiful girl.
The most advanced way to attract the attention of "Remembering Jiangnan" should come from a more talented female singer.
Her name is Xu Fei, and she has been in the entertainment industry for not too long. Perhaps because she liked the song "Guest" so much, she put herself in the shoes of the bride in the song and wrote a song called "Special Invitation" in response.
This song may not sound as good as "Guest", but its lyrics are still something——
"I never thought that I would want to invite you at a critical moment
I know there's nothing between us anymore.
Do you still remember the little secrets of those years?
How we got closer step by step
…
Thank you for dressing up
Just to witness my love
…
After we exchanged rings and kissed
How are you feeling?
It doesn't matter, at least we still have each other in the past
You are willing to work hard and accept my special invitation
..."
The appearance of this song "Special Invitation" amused netizens who have been paying close attention to the gossip about "Remembering Jiangnan" recently.
"I never expected that even the song "Remembering Jiangnan," which loves to piggyback on others' popularity, would one day be piggybacked by others."
"There is retribution in the world, and no one can escape it!"
"Wow, this song also mentions 'Those Years'. Just because a youth film became popular, everyone started releasing love songs? Can Gu Qingge, who is in the film industry, also lead the music industry? Tell me loudly, what is the surname of the Chinese music scene?"
"The lyrics of 'Special Invitation' are really amazing. When I listen to 'Guest', I can't help but feel bad for 'Remembering Jiangnan' because I can relate to it. But when I listen to 'Special Invitation', I want to curse Xu Fei. The whole song gives people a feeling of being ungrateful."
"What exactly is Xu Fei trying to say? Is she rubbing salt into the wound? She doesn't really think that writing a song in response is teasing [Remembering Jiangnan], does she?"
"If I were [Remembering Jiangnan], after listening to this song, I would just want to give Xu Fei a dunk!"
…
Gu Qingge really didn't expect that the drama "Remembering Jiangnan", which always piggybacks on others' popularity, would also be piggybacked on by others one day.
Xu Fei was just a fourth-tier artist before this, but she was able to reach the fourth-tier level not long after her debut, which shows that she does have some talent.
Through this series of bold moves, she gained a lot of popularity, although a lot of it was criticism, but as the saying goes, in the entertainment industry, it is better to be criticized than to be ignored.
Xu Fei was still expecting [Remembering Jiangnan] to jump out and fight back, preferably with a song to slap him in the face or something. Those who could be targeted by [Remembering Jiangnan] were all at the level of Ji Yan and Gu Qingge.
Xu Fei wanted to replicate the path to fame that made "Remembering Jiangnan" famous.
Unfortunately, "Remembering Jiangnan" didn't pay any attention to Xu Fei at all. Anyway, the other party wrote "Special Invitation" to increase the popularity of "Those Years", and Gu Qingge was happy about it.
Instead, Gu Qingge used the account of "Remembering Jiangnan" to recommend the new song "Xiaoban" by "Yu Meiren" to the public.
There's no way around it. Compared to "Not Yet a Lover" released by Gu Qingge and her Queen band, "Guest" released by [Remembering Jiangnan], and "Little Half" by [Yu Meiren], its current popularity is not as high as the former two.
This certainly doesn't mean that the quality of [Yu Meiren]'s new song is poor. On the contrary, the song "Xiaoban" is quite awesome, both in terms of lyrics and music. The lyrics of the entire song were definitely written by a "rhyme maniac"!
However, compared to the popularity of Gu Qingge and [Remembering Jiangnan], two singer-songwriters who have fought each other for a long time, [Yu Meiren] is too low-key and Buddhist, and she does not have much traffic.
[Poppy] is of course very popular among niche music fans, but she has not yet fully entered the public eye.
Now she is still in a state where her songs are popular but she herself is not.
If the movie "Those Years" was edited completely according to the original novel, then "Yu Meiren", as the prototype of the character "Yu Yuyu", might become popular. After all, she is suspected to have ended up with "Lu Manwu".
But the problem is that in order to maximize the tragedy and regret of the ending, the movie "Those Years" directly married "Yu Yuyu" and "Lu Manwu"...
In this case, in the eyes of many viewers who have not read the original novel, "Yu Yuyu" is just the role of the heroine's best friend. Her existence is to highlight the heroine's greater awesomeness.
As for the love line, it is a pure friendship. The so-called yuri blossoming between talented women is just like "gay people look at each other with rotten eyes". It is purely the YY of a very niche group of yuri fans.
It's a pity for Mo Wei's performance. In order to play the role of rival to Gu Qingge well, she stayed in the same room with Gu Qingge every night to practice the role. As a result, many overly ambiguous scenes in the final edited film were harmonized.
These rivalry scenes are actually very exciting, especially the eye contact between the two talented women, which is really amazing.
However, in order to pass the review, to further highlight the male and female protagonists, and to conform to the ideas of a wider audience, the film version of "Those Years" can only be edited in this way.
After this cut, the presence of "Yu Yuyu" was greatly reduced, and even the new songs of [Yu Meiren] became less popular. Gu Qingge could only use other aliases to attract traffic for her.
