"Old Zhou, Old Zhou?" Ning Mang called out to Zhou Yiyang several times. It took a while for Zhou Yiyang to react. He turned around and looked at him: "What's wrong?"
"Why are you so absent-minded?" Ning Mang laughed. "The second movie has just finished. What do you think?"
Zhou Yiyang uttered an "ah" and opened his mouth somewhat helplessly in response to Ning Mang's question. After a moment, he said, "Would you be surprised if I told you that I didn't see it at all?"
Ning Mang covered his mouth and chuckled softly. He seemed to have guessed this outcome long ago. As for Zhang Yingyuan, who was sitting next to Zhou Yiyang, he turned his head to look at Zhou Yiyang and whispered, "Are you still thinking about your girl group?"
"Yeah." Zhou Yiyang admitted it directly: "I was wondering why their performance abroad this time was so popular. It went viral so quickly."
Hearing Zhou Yiyang's words, Ning Mang almost vomited. "Come on, Old Zhou, you'll definitely get beaten if you say that. I see other people are worried about what to do if the popularity isn't enough, but you're actually thinking about what to do if the popularity is too high."
"I'm really not showing off this time," Zhou Yiyang said seriously, "because based on their popularity, I will come up with a suitable follow-up marketing plan. Who knew they would be so popular this time? I actually have no idea what to do for a while."
"What you mean," Ning Mang was an insider after all, so he finally understood, "is that you didn't expect their performance to go viral, so you didn't even think about how to capitalize on the buzz."
"That's right." Zhou Yiyang glanced at Zhang Yingyuan quietly and found that he seemed very interested in this topic. He had been looking at him the whole time: "My original plan was very simple. After the performance, Su Yin went directly to Zhang Yiling's place to film a movie. The three of them also had business activities, but they would not be overexposed."
Zhang Yingyuan looked up at this time: "Yiling also told me before on the phone that she has found a location for the filming."
"That's right," Zhou Yiyang nodded. "That was the original plan. A smooth transition. After Su Yin finishes filming, it will be followed by a summer blockbuster. After the filming is finished, the World Singer Competition will be about to begin."
Ning Mang uttered an "oh" and looked very excited. He hadn't expected Zhou Yiyang to arrange so many film and television related activities. He thought it was really worth it.
However, some fans who like Yue Shao's singing and dancing performances but are not interested in their movies and TV shows may be unhappy.
"World Singer Contest? I've seen it on the hot searches before and always thought it was just a gimmick!" Ning Mang always felt that this kind of competition under the banner of the world looked like something that capitalists used to make money.
"At first, I thought it was just a gimmick," Zhou Yiyang whispered. "But after hearing their proposed invite list, I felt that if this competition were actually held, it would definitely be quite entertaining. So I invested."
At this time, Zhang Yingyuan and Ning Mang both showed subtle expressions. Ning Mang had a good relationship with Zhou Yiyang, and he directly expressed his thoughts:
"No way, brother, aren't you organizing the competition yourself and participating in it yourself? Will anyone question your fairness then?"
Zhou Yiyang laughed. He guessed that there would be many similar remarks at that time, but he was not afraid of controversy at all.
In fact, he was planning to wait until the competition was in the warm-up stage, and then release this news proactively to hype up the competition through controversy.
"I just invested, not took over directly. Besides, the entire competition was broadcast live. If the audience disagrees with the result, they can boycott me by not watching the show."
Zhou Yiyang smiled very confidently at this time, which reminded Ning Mang of the first time they met.
Zhou Yiyang seemed to be so confident at that time.
"Besides, Lao Ning and I are so familiar with each other, do you think I would do something that would destroy my own reputation?"
This rhetorical question left Ning Mang silent for a few seconds, then he burst into laughter: "That's easy, just let me invest in it too! And with me here, I can help you get the satellite license."
Zhou Yiyang smiled slightly, and he and Ning Mang immediately held hands.
Zhang Yingyuan was listening to their conversation quietly beside them. He even had a feeling that Zhou Yiyang was deliberately misleading Ning Mang.
Of course, Ning Mang knew this all too well. They were good brothers in private, but their cooperation was also about sharing benefits, which made it less likely for their relationship to sour.
"Then I'll trouble you." Zhou Yiyang said with a smile.
Last year, the higher authorities issued a regulation stating that talent shows could be broadcast on satellite TV, but they had to obtain a satellite broadcast license.
Moreover, the license review this time was very strict. Zhou Yiyang had asked Shencheng Satellite TV before, but they only got one, and it could only be broadcast at 10 o'clock in the evening.
Even if Zhou Yiyang didn't mind the broadcast time, Shencheng TV would never give him the license because that license was for their own girl group talent show.
But Zhou Yiyang didn't panic. He immediately thought of Ning Mang. Based on his understanding of Ning Mang, it wouldn't be a problem for him to get a license with his family connections.
As long as he can give him enough benefits, Ning Mang will definitely be willing to help.
During the conversation, the satellite access problem that had troubled Bai Yangyu for several months was solved.
At this time, the third short film of the film festival, and the last short film of the night, has come to an end.
When the behind-the-scenes footage appeared at the end of the film, the media split into two groups and headed in different directions.
