In 2006, young student fans did not have much spending power.
At that time, life in mainland China was just getting a little better. Luxury goods were very far away from ordinary people. Parents did not have much money, so naturally they would not give their children much pocket money.
Students can use their pocket money to buy milk tea, novels, and records, but that’s all.
Even watching a movie is a luxury. If you don’t like a star very much, it is rare to support the genuine version. It’s not the student fans’ fault for being stingy, they are really short of money.
The more mature female fans Liang Dan refers to are mother-level female fans.
In HK, female fans of this age group are called "housewives group". Housewives have boring lives, hold the financial power of the family, and have little in common with their husbands. They transfer their spiritual sustenance to popular stars, and are crazy about chasing stars and are willing to spend money!
Let me put it this way, if Yu Tianlin's fan base is just young girls, he can endorse popular brands such as yogurt. If his fan base is older women with more financial strength, there will be no problem for Yu Tianlin to endorse expensive products such as big-name cosmetics and watches.
As the name suggests, fan washing means to wash away the worthless fence-sitters and leave the die-hard fans, and then attract older women as new fans through "Love Cruise". Liang Dan's calculations are really good. The vice president who had strongly opposed it just now did not say a word for a while, and actually seriously considered the feasibility of this matter.
Why does Liang Dan dare to say this?
The first reason is that Yu Tianlin's charm in "Love Cruise" is off the charts. When he showed the sample film, he was able to conquer the female leader of Hunan Satellite TV. Without waiting for Tianjiao to complete the production of "Star River and You", the female leader went against the opposition and bought the copyright of "Love Cruise" and scheduled it for the prime July.
Think about that female leader, isn’t she exactly the age of the “housewives group”?
The knowledgeable female leaders of Hunan Satellite TV all like Yu Tianlin's performance in "Cruise of Love", and ordinary housewives can't resist Yu Tianlin's charm!
Second, Yu Tianlin and Hu Man are "together", and Hu Man is actually of "housewife" age. A relationship between an older woman and a younger man is not accepted by Yu Tianlin's current young female fans, but it can make it easier for housewives to empathize with the situation - when it comes to chasing stars, everyone likes to YY regardless of age. What's there to be afraid of without the YY of young female fans? Yu Tianlin can harvest the housewife fans!
Of course, there are definitely risks in washing fans in this way. If "Love Cruise" fails to achieve the expected results after it is broadcast and there are no new fans, Yu Tianlin's situation will be very embarrassing. This wrong decision may even become the fuse for a popular idol male star to become out of date!
No matter what Yu Tianlin chooses, it will not affect Liang Dan. Liang Dan's analysis is well-reasoned, but the vice president of Yu Tianlin's company is still worried:
"I still feel uneasy. Tianlin, you have to think carefully. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. This matter is very serious. We must be cautious when making a decision!"
Hu Man's agent laughed. "I think Tianlin is very far-sighted. It's better to consider transformation while his popularity is still at its peak than to transform after his popularity has dropped. The former is like changing a track and continuing to move forward at high speed, while the latter is like falling into a valley and climbing back up again. No matter how you look at it, the former is easier."
Hu Man said impatiently, "Alright, stop trying to persuade him. Let Tianlin make his own choice whether to confirm the rumor or not. Don't make it seem like I'm in a hurry. I don't really care, but whether it's to admit the relationship or to clarify the rumor, Yuan Fenghui doesn't have much time left for us. Tianlin, you have to make a decision soon."
There was no need for Hu Man and his agent to argue, Yu Tianlin had already made his choice.
He chose to "admit the relationship" and continued to stir up scandals with Hu Man!
The vice president couldn't do anything about Yu Tianlin, and finally even alarmed the boss of Baodao Agency to come and negotiate with Yu Tianlin in person. I don't know how Yu Tianlin persuaded his boss, but the boss nodded, and the vice president could only reluctantly agree:
"Now that things have come to this, we both need to sit down and discuss the details of our cooperation. How long will this relationship last? What are the obligations and responsibilities of each man and woman during the period? These should all be implemented in the contract. What do you think, Sister Man?"
Hu Man looked down at her newly painted nails and sneered, "What? Are you afraid that I'll cling to Tianlin and refuse to break up? Fine, you can draft any contract you want, I'll just sign it!"
The two parties signed a contract. In order to dilute the publicity effect that Hu Man brought to "Star River and You", they finally agreed that Yu Tianlin would come forward to admit his love. This statement will be made public tomorrow, adding fuel to the premiere of "Love Cruise".
Tool man Cao Bo watched this wonderful drama from beginning to end, feeling really dazed.
Yuan Fenghui sent her "blessings" to put an end to the scandal between Yu Tianlin and Hu Man. Yu Tianlin was forced to take the risk of transformation, and now he has signed a "love contract" with Hu Man, forcing himself to confirm the scandal... No matter how well Hu Man takes care of herself, she is still an aunt. Yu Tianlin is in the prime of life, but he has to pretend to be a couple with Hu Man. It is really sad and hard to accept for Cao Bo to put himself in Yu Tianlin's shoes.
Well, when I think about it this way, even though my engagement with Xu Mei was fake, Xu Mei is much better than Hu Man!
This concerns the future of two big stars, Yu Tianlin and Hu Man, so both sides dare not be careless. Not only Yu Tianlin and Hu Man have to sign a contract, but everyone present also signed a confidentiality agreement.
Liang Dan called General Guan and Cao Bo aside and warned them, "Keep your mouths shut about this. Yuan Fenghui timed her counterattack so perfectly, and she was so calm and composed, not panicking at all. I'm wondering if someone tipped her off. Did you guys accidentally leak the information earlier?"
Of course, Mr. Guan refused to admit to something he hadn't done, but Cao Bo felt a pang in his heart.
Could it be Xu Mei?
But why would Xu Mei help Yuan Fenghui!
