Chapter 25 Chapter 25
"Shameless to the extreme!!!!"
Zuo Hang paced back and forth in the room angrily.
He had prepared for all of Gu Xingshi's methods, but he never expected that Gu Xingshi would not play by the rules. A few photos easily resolved the crisis and directly blocked his way out.
It was like everyone was playing the game honestly according to the rules, and Gu Xingshi suddenly took out a plug-in.
How the hell can we play this game? ! !
What's even more annoying is that they can't use this plug-in yet.
Although it is said that in the entertainment industry, appearance is justice.
Has this evil trend now blown to the agent circle? !
Zuo Hang became more and more angry.
No!
I can't just give in like this!
Zuo Hang thought fiercely, since I can't get it, I'll destroy it! !
Two of his trainees also participated in the talent show this time. Although the traffic is not as high as that of "Men's Group Training Camp", one of them ranked well. Coincidentally, his style is a bit similar to Cheng Xin.
Moreover, the international brand xx also extended an olive branch to them. Although it is just a brand friend, it is already a very good resource among the trainees of the same period.
Although the other party's business condescending attitude made Zuo Hang very unhappy, he also asked him for a high kickback.
Brand friends do not have a signing fee, which means they pay for this status.
Zuo Hang had been hesitant before.
But at this moment, he finally made up his mind.
Spend the money!
If you can step on Meng Cheng and the others and lift up your own family, it will be a steady profit!
Meng Yuansheng! Cheng Xin!
He chewed the two names fiercely in his mouth.
Who told you to be so ignorant that you had to follow that small broken company of Le Shi?
Then don't blame him for being ruthless!
-Although
Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin finally believed that he was not the one who released the photos after Gu Xingshi's strong persuasion, others did not believe it. Even Yin Hefeng took the initiative to send him a message, praising him sourly for his superb skills.
Gu Xingshi: "..."
Numb.
He was already thinking about whether he should turn off his phone for a while to avoid the limelight.
At this time, the phone rang again.
Gu Xingshi answered the call helplessly, and said weakly: "Hello."
A woman's chuckle came from the other end of the phone: "Little Gu, why do you sound unhappy? Who offended you?"
Gu Xingshi immediately recognized Liang Wenjun and sat up straight: "Sister Wenjun? Why did you call me?"
Liang Wenjun: "I came to thank you. Thanks to your reminder, I escaped a disaster."
Gu Xingshi didn't think he had much credit.
After all, he just mentioned it casually. Liang Wenjun was able to turn danger into safety in such a short time, and even sent Cao Guangli to prison, relying on her own ability.
Liang Wenjun could tell that he was unwilling to take credit for himself, so she changed the subject: "Xiao Gu, I've read all the recent comments online, and I think what you did was right. Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin both have good images and abilities, and their achievements are definitely not limited to the present. If you choose to sign them with those uneven brands at this time for the sake of money, it would be overdrawing their business value and a short-sighted approach."
Gu Xingshi was a little surprised that Liang Wenjun would say this to him.
Although he felt that what he did was right, he was a newcomer in this industry after all, and he was somewhat uneasy about being denied by so many people.
But Liang Wenjun's words gave him a reassurance.
Liang Wenjun is well-known in the industry for her sharp vision and superb means, and can be said to be the target of countless agents.
Her advice can be said to be worth a thousand gold.
Gu Xingshi was naturally grateful.
Liang Wenjun liked him more and more, so she was willing to help him more: "I heard that people from xx have been spreading rumors about you in the industry, saying that you are a big shot. Do you want me to organize a meeting to mediate between you two?"
Liang Wenjun naturally didn't believe these rumors.
Not to mention that she trusted Gu Xingshi's character and felt that he was not that kind of person. Moreover, the brand xx has always been arrogant. On the one hand, it wants to make money in the domestic market, but on the other hand, it can't let go of its status and looks down on the domestic market in various ways.
Liang Wenjun didn't have any good feelings towards them at all.
Sure enough, Gu Xingshi explained, "I'm not being a big shot. They gave us a position of brand best friend with a gesture of charity and asked me to give a high kickback. I rejected them. At that time, they told me to wait and they would definitely take revenge on me."
Liang Wenjun frowned.
She had heard before that xx was ugly in front of some small artists, but she didn't expect it to be so naked and mean.
Gu Xingshi said again, "Sister Wenjun, don't bother you to mediate for me. Anyway, I don't like their brand best friend. Even if they beg me, I will disdain it."
Listening to Gu Xingshi's words, Liang Wenjun had to admit that she felt really refreshed.
But then she was helpless. The child was still young and energetic. There were not so many black and white things in this circle.
Especially the fashion circle, which was small to begin with, and was particularly superstitious about foreign big brands.
Even Liang Wenjun couldn't let her temper run wild.
She advised earnestly: "Xiao Gu, although xx's behavior is disgusting, this is how the circle works. If you offend xx, you won't get any fashion resources in the future. This is a huge flaw for an artist, especially if yours is a newcomer. No matter how capable he is in the future, he basically has no way to the top."
Liang Wenjun felt a little sad when she said this.
When she understood Gu Xing, it was like being hit on the left cheek and having to turn the right cheek up to be hit, but the rules of this circle were so cruel that sometimes one had to endure humiliation.
However, to her surprise, Gu Xingshi did not show much emotion: "Sister Wenjun, I understand what you mean. If it was just their bad attitude, I wouldn't mind. The reason why I don't want to cooperate with them is because they insulted China at this year's new product launch conference, which I absolutely cannot accept!"
Liang Wenjun was stunned, and then she became serious: "Are you sure?!"
Gu Xingshi: "You can search for the speeches of the chief designer of their spring and summer new product launch this year, and you will know."
This is no small matter!
Although she knew that Gu Xingshi would not joke about this matter, Liang Wenjun still asked her assistant to quickly find xx's spring and summer new product launch this year. After reading it, she was furious.
She still remembered that this year's fashion circle was praising xx's spring and summer new products this year, and the domestic fashion circle was even more enthusiastic about it, which made a lot of headlines.
At that time, she was poisoned by Cao Guangli and had no energy, so she didn't pay much attention to it. She didn't expect such a thing to happen.
But at that time, xx's spring and summer new product launch invited a large number of domestic magazines, fashion circle people and celebrities. So many people were on the scene, and no one heard it?
No, maybe it's not that they didn't hear it, but that they don't care.
They have long been accustomed to it, or even tacitly accepted that in this circle, foreign luxury brands are superior, so they don't take such remarks to heart.
But as a Chinese, Liang Wenjun simply cannot tolerate such things.
It must be exposed!
This kind of brand that "eats the Chinese people's rice and smashes the Chinese people's bowls" must be kicked out of China!
However, after the initial anger, Liang Wenjun's instinct as a gold medal agent came online.
This matter is certainly humiliating, but it is also an opportunity.
If it can be manipulated well, it may be able to directly change the domestic fashion circle's trend of worshipping foreigners and fawning on foreigners.
And she can also get a lot of benefits from it.
But in this way, she owed Gu Xingshi another big favor.
Liang Wenjun breathed a sigh of relief, and her mood was particularly complicated.
She called Gu Xingshi today to thank him for this matter, and even prepared some advertising resources as a thank-you gift.
But Gu Xingshi helped her so much that she couldn't afford her small gift.
Liang Wenjun thought for a moment and asked, "Xiao Gu, do you know Tianshu?"
Gu Xingshi: "Of course I know."
Tianshu is a mobile phone brand under Wenshi, which occupies the largest market share in the domestic high-end mobile phone market. Gu Xingshi is currently using a Tianshu mobile phone.
Liang Wenjun continued, "You should know that Tianshu also has a youth line that specializes in the low-end mobile phone market. They are looking for several young spokespersons. If you are willing, I will try to make this happen."
Gu Xingshi's eyes widened.
The Wen family is wealthy and powerful, and the spokespersons for Tianshu mobile phones have always been top stars.
There have always been rumors in the circle that only by getting the endorsement of Tianshu mobile phones can you be a real top star.
Although Liang Wenjun is talking about the youth line and there are several spokespersons at the same time, this kind of resource was also out of their reach before.
How could they not be willing to do something that falls from the sky!
"Thank you, Sister Wenjun! Of course I am willing!"
Liang Wenjun was amused by his unabashed eagerness, and gave him a reassurance: "I am 70% to 80% sure about this matter, just wait for my good news." Liang
Wenjun did what he said, and Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin were taken to sign the contract by Gu Xingshi, and they were still confused when they came back.
Cheng Xin: "Tianshu cell phone? I'm not dreaming! Ah Sheng, slap me and see if it's true!"
Hearing this, Meng Yuansheng turned around and satisfied him without hesitation.
Cheng Xin: "It hurts! Damn! Your hand is too cruel!!"
Meng Yuansheng also looked at his palm and murmured: "It hurts... It's actually true."
Gu Xingshi was almost laughed at by these two funny guys.
Originally, having Cheng Xin in the company was already a headache. I thought Meng Yuansheng was a rational and calm person, but who knew that after getting familiar with him, he also exposed his funny nature.
The two returned to the dormitory, still unable to calm down.
Fortunately, Meng Yuansheng still retained a little rationality.
"Okay, go to bed early, there are interviews tomorrow!"
This was their first formal press conference after participating in the competition.
Originally, the two were a little worried about whether the reporters would ask any sharp questions, but now they are not afraid at all.
This is the confidence given by President Gu!
-At
one o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, the first press conference of the second season of "Men's Group Training Camp" was opened.
In addition to the trainees and the media, fans from various groups also came to the scene.
After Qiao Ruoyao passed the security check with difficulty holding the doll, she immediately looked around.
She became familiar with Bai Ran because of the previous things in the group, and found that the two of them could talk unexpectedly, so they made an appointment to come to the press conference together and meet in person. She
quickly found Bai Ran in the crowd, and Bai Ran skillfully took her to the fan area of Meng Cheng and the others.
Because the press conference had not started yet, everyone was chatting.
Qiao Ruoyao tiptoed to look at the backstage, and subconsciously said to Bai Ran: "I don't know if the agent brother will come today..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the surroundings suddenly became quiet.
Qiao Ruoyao reacted, remembered what she said, and quickly covered her mouth.
Until a small voice came from the crowd, "Sister, me too..."
It was like breaking the seal of silence, and everyone began to chat.
"Well, actually I also want to see..."
"Everyone loves beauty, who doesn't want to see handsome guys!"
"I admit that I am cheap, I lust after his body..."
Qiao Ruoyao: "..."
Fortunately, not long after, the trainees came on stage one after another, and the press conference officially began.
As popular contestants, Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin were naturally asked the most questions.
Meng Yuansheng answered appropriately, and although Cheng Xin's answers were messy, they surprisingly had a sense of variety. With Meng Yuansheng's comments, nothing unexpected happened.
Until a reporter from Apple Entertainment stood up and said, "Hello, Meng Yuansheng, you are the most popular contestant, but you still don't have any advertising resources. Does this mean that your popularity is fake and the market doesn't recognize you?"
The fan area of Meng Yuansheng in the audience suddenly became agitated.
Qiao Ruoyao nervously grabbed Bai Ran beside her. The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.
They were worried before that someone would use the lack of advertising resources to embarrass Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin, but they didn't expect it to happen, and it was such a malicious attitude.
The two were worried and angry, and didn't notice the strange expression that flashed across Meng Yuansheng's face.
Meng Yuansheng coughed lightly and said politely, "Whether the market recognizes me, please wait and see."
Seeing that his sharp topic was easily resolved, the reporter from Apple Entertainment was a little unwilling, so he turned to ask Cheng Xin: "Hello Cheng Xin, the Internet has been comparing you with Fang Yimin from "Shine! Boys Group". Do you have anything to say?"
The scene suddenly burst into laughter.
Cheng Xin was a little confused: "Who is this person?"
Apple Entertainment reporter: "..."
But there was a burst of laughter at the scene.
"Shine! Boys Group" is also a boy group talent show, but compared with "Boys Group Training Camp", the traffic and influence are a bit worse.
But some time ago, a lot of press releases suddenly appeared on the Internet, all comparing Cheng Xin and Fang Yimin.
Who can't tell what the intention is. There
was also a lot of discussion on the barrage.
[Although I'm not a fan of Cheng Xin, I have to say that this is too obvious! ]
[Where did this little unknown come from, just trying to rub shoulders with Cheng Xin! ]
[I've seen that comparison video, I think Fang Yimin dances better than Cheng Xin! ]
[Suddenly I'm interested in Fang Yimin! ]
[??? This is the press conference for "Boy Group Training Camp", someone rubbed his face in her face, can the host be more professional? ]
The host has signaled the staff to take away the microphone.
The Apple Entertainment reporter was adamant: "As far as I know, xx once considered signing a contract with you, but ultimately chose Fang Yimin as its brand ally. Do you think that's a pity? Do you have anything to say to Fang Yimin who defeated you?"
[Just an advertising resource, and you can win? This trick of substituting concepts is really amazing! ]
[I think those big brands should have better vision than us ordinary people, they should really not be optimistic about Cheng Xin]
[Uh, am I the only one who thinks that the brand xx has suddenly become a bit low? Cheng Xin
was not angry, and said slowly: "It's not a pity, there's nothing to say to him, as long as he's happy."
Apple Entertainment reporter: "???"
At this moment, the scene suddenly became noisy.
Many media were whispering to each other and took out their mobile phones.
The fans were also confused by this change.
I don't know who suddenly shouted: "Look at Weibo, the promotional song of "Crossing Mountains and Wading Rivers" is "Raging Sea"!!!"
Qiao Ruoyao was shocked at first, and then ecstatic.
This is "Crossing Mountains and Wading Rivers"! A movie directed by the great director Xu Cheng!
[Fuck! I remember that the film industry has always looked down on the idol industry. This is the first time that an idol's song is used as a promotional song? ]
[Meng Yuansheng is awesome! ! ! ]
[Hahahahaha, who said before that the market didn't recognize Shengbao? Isn't this considered recognition?】
The Apple Entertainment reporter also quickly opened the Weibo, and after reading it, he was in disbelief.
This is actually true! !
Moreover, the trailer has been online for only one hour, and the number of views has exceeded one million.
Thinking of asking Meng Yuansheng before whether the market did not recognize him, this data was like a slap in the face.
The reporter's face turned pale and blue. The whispers and vague looks around him made him want to travel back a few minutes and withdraw this sentence.
Just when he was sitting on pins and needles, there was a louder cry of surprise at the scene.
His heart tightened, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, the next second, he saw a hot search.
#Tianshu Youth Line Officially Announces Spokesperson# Among them, there are the names of Meng Yuansheng and
Cheng Xin. [Ah ... Meng and Cheng are just trainees who haven't debuted yet! How can they be put together with these popular young actors and actresses! ! More importantly, they are spokespersons! This is much higher than xx's worthless brand buddy. And he actually asked Cheng Xin if he felt it was a pity? ! He even thought that Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin knew that they would be asked these questions! Otherwise, how could they be so accurate in slapping their faces? ! Compared to him who was ashamed to death, other reporters at the scene had a completely different attitude. Everyone rushed forward to interview like crazy. Are you kidding! This is a headline from the sky! Only a fool would miss such a good opportunity! Oh, no. Someone looked at the reporter from Apple Entertainment with sympathy. There is still a fool here. -
Zuo Hang has been very proud of himself recently.
His strategy of bundling and riding on the popularity has worked. Fang Yimin's popularity has increased a lot recently, especially after becoming a brand friend of xx. Zuo Hang gritted his teeth and took out a large amount of publicity funds to carry out extensive publicity.
He was very satisfied with the results. In just one or two days, Fang Yimin's popularity jumped to the number one in "Shine! Boy Group".
According to his plan, Fang Yimin will maintain such high popularity until the end.
The most important part of this is the press conference of "Boy Group Training Camp".
For this purpose, he also bribed a reporter from Apple Entertainment to ask his designated questions at the press conference.
Of course, he didn't think he could pull down Meng Cheng and the others by this kind of pulling and stepping.
But as long as there is controversy, there will be heat.
He just intends to keep sucking the blood of the two and completely tie Fang Yimin to them.
He is very satisfied with his plan. He
even called all his subordinates to the scene, and opened a live broadcast in the name of a meeting, so that they could witness this scene together.
When he saw the Apple Entertainment reporter appear, he even stood up excitedly.
But, are Meng Yuansheng and Cheng Xin a little too calm?
There is no anger or embarrassment as he imagined.
Zuo Hang was already a little uneasy.
Fortunately, the navy on the barrage at this time helped him to regain some face.
But then, "Crossing Mountains and Wading Rivers" adopted "The Raging Sea" as its promotional song.
Tianshu Mobile Youth Line chose Meng Cheng as its spokesperson.
The two hot searches were like two slaps, slapping him hard in the face.
He let out the same roar as the Apple Entertainment reporter, Meng Yuansheng! Cheng Xin! You two did it on purpose! !
The conference room was dead silent.
All the employees lowered their heads, but their fingers were tapping on their phones quickly.
[I almost couldn't help laughing just now]
[Did you all see Zuo Baopi's expression, it was so wonderful! ]
[I heard that Zuo Baopi spent a lot of money on this matter, and spent a lot of money to slap himself twice, hahahahaha, it makes me feel so good! ]
Zuo Hang was panting, his eyes were red, and he had to lean on the table to hold on to avoid falling down.
He gritted his teeth and tried hard to save his reputation: "No matter what, the purpose of promoting Fang Yimin has been achieved. He is now a close friend of xx's brand..."
Before he finished speaking, someone raised his hand and said weakly: "Zuo... Director Zuo, xx seems to have had an accident..."
Zuo Hang: "What?!!!"
He strode over and almost snatched the phone from the other party.
I saw several new hot searches rushing up.
#xx chief designer's remarks suspected of insulting China#
#xx foreign garbage get out of China#
#Fu Ya terminated the contract with xx at the first time#
#Yuan Qingqing refused xx dress at the film festival#
...
Zuo Hang thought that he spent a lot of money and bought such a big bomb. His eyes went dark and he fell directly.
"Director Zuo! What happened to you!"
"Call an ambulance! Director Zuo has fainted!"
