Chapter 30: Shooting Commercials
Lu Ziyan felt a little unreal when he received Gu Qing's call, but the sudden surprise gave him a lot of energy.
Fang Xin was on her way to the filming location when she received a message from Lu Ziyan.
Lu: Yuexing’s agent called me and said he wanted to sign me!
He stared at the message on his phone. He could have quickly said congratulations, but after only a day, An changed his mind, which left him puzzled.
Xingxing: Congratulations, you got what you wanted.
Lu: Yuexing and Jazz have never gotten along. What if they try to stop us from working together in the future?
Xingxing: Why are you worrying about these things when you don’t even know what will happen in the future?
Lu Ziyan knew that it was too early to worry, but there were some things he already knew he had to plan ahead of time.
If Yuexing didn't plan to sign him, he would have recommended himself to Jazz.
Even just because he and Fang Xin are currently popular, Jazz will sign him.
Now that he had finally entered Yuexing, he began to worry about other things again. He shook his head speechlessly.
Fang Xin arrived at the filming studio, said a few words to Lu Ziyan in a hurry, and went to work.
This time the advertiser showed great sincerity, the filming conditions were excellent, the remuneration was good, and now that he had enough money he could start buying a new house for himself.
After simply greeting the people present, a makeup artist called him over to do his makeup. The theme of this photo shoot was shower gel, an old and affordable brand that was almost fading from people's minds, and the manufacturer was also worried.
So after discussing with my partners, we decided to invite some celebrities to endorse the product. Previously, due to the economic downturn, we only invited some small-time celebrities with little fame, and the results were not very good.
After seeing the huge success of "Thousands of Years", he decided to give it another try and find someone who was well-known and likable, so he decided on Fang Xin.
Fang Xin initially thought that as a rising star, if she was not familiar to the public, it would be difficult for her to make a name for herself in the future, so she chose to shoot a shower gel advertisement that could become a household name.
The makeup artist asked him to change into a refreshing outfit. At first, the makeup artist felt that Fang Xin's appearance was rather seductive and did not fit in well with a shower gel advertisement.
It was not until Fang Xin appeared in white that they realized their judgment was wrong.
"Oh my god, you're so pretty."
The braver makeup artist started talking. Fang Xin lowered his head due to the compliments. Not long after, he raised his slightly flushed face.
"Thank you."
He is seldom praised for his good looks. After all, there are so many handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment industry, and no one would notice him because he is mediocre.
It was the first time that someone praised him so blatantly, and he felt embarrassed.
After the makeup artist dressed him up, he was sent to the studio. The commercial shot a video of him washing half of his body with shower gel, and the endorsement photos took four hours to shoot.
I changed several sets of clothes in a day and put on makeup again and again.
The shower gel commercial was shot in one day. The advertiser came to thank Fang Xin in person. Fang Xin was humble, and they had a meal together before going home.
A few days later, I received the finished advertisement film from Sister Xian. The photos were nothing new, but the video was enough to make people blush.
Maybe Fang Xin himself was embarrassed, so the exposure was not too big, but his body was pale and his back was blurry, which made people imagine wild things.
Perhaps because he had previously gone viral for looking back from the side, this time the photoshoot also captured a scene where he turned his head to look over his shoulder after taking a shower. Water droplets slowly flowed down his snow-white skin, fine dewdrops on his eyelashes dripped along the curve, and his pink lips soaked in warm water were moist, translucent, and charming.
He looked at it for a while and thought it was good, so he told Sister Xian that it could be adopted. Chen Xian also responded quickly, saying that the advertisement would be released in the next few days.
He has also cooperated with several supermarkets and large shopping malls, and said that his posters will be hung in the toiletries section.
Fang Xin agreed, and the video was played over 2 million times on the day the endorsement was released. A group of fans commented on the Weibo post by the advertiser.
"My Xinxin finally got an endorsement! And brought the little eunuch back with her!"
"I can't even imagine how well Lu Ziyan eats. For a moment, I wanted to be Lu Ziyan."
"CP fans, can you please stop being so ky? This is Xinxin's personal advertisement."
"Beauty is the threshold to enter the entertainment industry, and strength is the ability to be in the hall, but how can one person have both! I suggest you give me this face."
"Yes, I've decided to use this one from now on."
"Shushuang, you are good at choosing people. I just happen to like to stock up on things, so I bought a box."
"Wow wow wow, finally someone discovered this amazing brand, it's really useful, thanks to Fang Xin for making it famous, otherwise what would I use if it went bankrupt in the future."
Fang Xin saw that many of them were friendly in their words. He knew that he was now a somewhat famous person, and he was filled with emotion.
But there will always be haters who can't stand him doing well.
"I give up. This commercial is shot to look like a seducer. It is a sex ad that should not be shown on the public."
"The oiran is really good-looking, but I don't dare to use anything endorsed by an oiran."
"Hahahaha, you are the one who talks upstairs. It would be terrible if I use the things endorsed by the oiran and end up being like him."
"Those who say they have become the same, stop flattering yourself. Do you deserve to have such a face? You have tainted the title of Oiran."
There were tens of thousands of comments, both good and bad. After Fang Xin finished reading Weibo, she remembered what Tianluzi said a few days ago about signing a contract with Yuexing.
Lu Ziyan picked up the phone, "What's the matter?"
"Didn't you say Yuexing wanted to sign you? I want to find out what happened."
Fang Xin laughed twice, holding the phone in her hand but thinking about the unpleasantness with Xu Shian last time.
Lu Ziyan sounded busy at the other end. "Agent Gu said that Mr. Xu asked her to sign my name. As for why Mr. Xu signed me, I don't really know. Anyway, I'm in now. I'll definitely have a chance to find out later."
Fang Xin nodded twice and said, "Has Yuexing arranged a future development plan for you?"
"Yes, I'm already preparing to take on a new script." Lu Ziyan paused and thought of something, "I've acted in too many TV dramas, but only "Thousands of Years" has become popular. I want to try acting in a movie."
Lu Ziyan's words seemed to point to Fang Xin. Fang Xin thought for a moment and said, "What I mean is that if I want to prove myself, I must try every script, including movies."
"Oh, by the way, did you get the message?"
"What?" Fang Xin was confused.
"The super popular variety show "Game Match" contacted my agent and said they wanted to invite a few people from our crew to be on an episode."
As soon as Lu Ziyan finished speaking, Fang Xin heard a message prompt that Chen Xian had told him about this.
"I just received a message from Sister Xian. Looks like I have to join you too."
