Entertainment: I really want to make progress

The opening guest is Xue Zhixuan.

This person is quite powerful.

After debuting on the talent show "My Style, My Show", her song "Serious Snow" became quite popular, and even won the Top Ten Golden Melody Award on the Oriental Chart.

However, it seems that after this song, his career development was not going well, and now he is considered half-transparent.

When I saw Zhou Yutang, he kept his posture very low and called him "Teacher".

After a few simple greetings, we started putting on makeup.

The makeup artist had also been arranged by the event party. She was a very mature sister in her thirties. She had big waves and her eyes lit up when she saw Zhou Yutang.

After looking at it for a long time, she said with some envy: "Mr. Zhou, your skin is so good. You don't need to put on makeup at all. You can go directly to the camera. Do you want to put on a little lipstick?"

"No, just help me fix my hair."

Unless filming requires it, Zhou Yutang never puts on makeup, and the most she does is style her hair for every event.

He also doesn’t have the semi-long hair that is popular nowadays, which is the non-mainstream style that covers his eyebrows. He just has a simple 40-60 parted hair with clear texture.

Pair it with a plaid shirt and jeans to look clean and fresh.

Flicking her hair according to Zhou Yutang's request, the makeup teacher marveled: "I have styled many famous celebrities in the industry, and you are much more handsome than them."

"Thank you, but I don't think I'm that handsome."

Zhou Yutang, who specially wore a pair of black-framed glasses today, looked somewhat elegant. He looked in the mirror with a calm expression.

Xue Zhixuan: "."

Chen Chen: "."

Backstage lounge, silence is tonight's Cambridge.

……………………

"Qinbao, why hasn't it started yet?"

"Don't worry, the activity schedule says ten o'clock, so there shouldn't be any mistakes."

A lot of people have gathered in the bookstore, but Zhou Yutang, who is the real owner, has not arrived yet. Li Yao frequently checks the time on his phone and tightly pulls the arm of his best friend Yaoyao.

"Pfft."

Rich woman Yaoyao smiled.

"why are you laughing?"

"You told me not to be impatient. You are more impatient than me. How many times do you check your phone a minute?"

"It's not in a hurry."

Li Yan glanced around, pursed his lips and smiled: "The main reason is that I didn't expect so many people to come."

The book signing party hadn't even started yet, but the queue waiting for the book signing already stretched for forty to fifty meters, with hundreds of people behind it. Everywhere you looked, they were filled with black heads.

Li Yao felt a little lucky. If he hadn't come early today, he might have had to wait in line until his legs were broken.

"Zhou Yutang's popularity is really high now."

Yaoyao looked at the crowd of people around her, stood on tiptoes, and took the camera to find an angle to take pictures.

"What's going on? Which celebrity is here? It's such a big battle."

"Zhou Yutang's new book signing party."

"I know Han Han and Guo Xiaosi, who is Zhou Yutang?"

"The handsome guy is me, Zhou Yutang. Have you never heard of this? The village doesn't have Internet access yet?"

"My husband is holding a book signing event at the bookstore. Brother, can you let me come behind you?"

"You are a man riding a horse. Get away from me!"

……………………

The bookstore was full of people watching the excitement, as well as some media reporters, and the flashlights lit up from time to time.

Suddenly there was a burst of exclamations in the venue. The host on the stage announced that the autograph session had begun. Zhou Yutang also stood up from his seat and waved in all directions.

The assistant next to him, Xiao Wang, stuck out his tongue.

Wow, there are so many people.

It was dark and crowded with people.

She knew that before the autograph session, Sister Hong was afraid that the popularity would be low and the scene would be ugly, so she spent money to find a lot of support to enhance the atmosphere.

It seems completely unnecessary now.

Crowds of people.

Even the passage at the back was crowded with people, making the bookstore's security guard sweat profusely from his busy work.

The book signing begins.

Zhou Yutang waved and walked to the autograph booth to communicate with every reader in line.

These are all pre-determined processes. I just chat a few words, share a little bit about my creative process, and some interesting anecdotes I encountered during the creation, and then sign it to the readers.

After about an hour of going on, Zhou Yutang flexed his wrist and prepared to pick up the next guest after seeing off a female fan.

A girl in a white shirt, holding a book in her hand, shouted excitedly: "Zhou Yutang! I am your idol!"

"."

Zhou Yutang was startled for a moment, then chuckled softly: "Hello, I am your fan, please sign your name for me."

He handed over the signature pen in his hand, and the girl in the white shirt took the signature pen and stood there helplessly, her head went blank, and everyone was stunned.

There was silence for a few seconds, and then there was a burst of snickering.

In the end, Zhou Yutang signed her autograph. The girl in the white shirt was named Chen Sidan, which was a nice name.

The autograph session lasted for several hours, with a short break in between. At this time, it was Seol Ji-hyun's turn to come out and sing live.

He is currently at a low point in his career, so he cherishes stage opportunities and spares no effort in performing.

Not only did he sing his famous song "Serious Snow" and several other songs in the album, but he also covered Zhou Yutang's TV series theme song of the same name "Want to See You Want to See You Want to See You" and "Anhe Bridge".

The song "Want to See You" is a staple on the QQ music rankings, and "Anhe Bridge" is also a popular song recently.

have to say.

Xue Zhixuan's singing skills are quite good, and his emotional interpretation is very good.

After the half-time performance, the autograph session continued, and finally it was the turn of Li Yao and her best friend.

Yaoyao was very fast. After signing her name, she happily stepped back. When it was Li Yao's turn, Zhou Yutang looked at her a few more times.

Mainly, this girl with clear eyes, calm temperament and cool temperament reminded him of Zeng Li, the first sister of Jiangdong Film and Television Culture.

"Your name is Li Yan?"

"Um."

Li Yao was a little nervous.

The idol is more handsome in real life than in the camera!

Still smiling at her, Li Yao felt a little dizzy and his heart was trembling. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look again.

"Come on, classmate Li Yao."

Zhou Yutang signed his name in a hurry, and then agreed to the girl's request for a photo.

"take it easy."

When Biye tilted his head and posed for a photo, he could almost hear the girl's pounding heartbeat. Zhou Yutang comforted him with a gentle smile.

There was a queue of people behind, and the autographs ended quickly. Yaoyao looked at Li Yao's group photo, feeling envious and regretful at the same time: "Oh, I was so happy that I forgot to take a photo with the governor."

Li Yao looked over and over at the group photo on his phone. His gestures looked silly, but Zhou Yutang was really handsome.

"Yan Bao, I thought I heard you talking to Zhou Yutang just now. What did you say?"

"hey-hey!"

Miss Li Yao said with a silly smile: "He said, come on, classmate Li Yao."

……………………

The autograph session is finally over.

There weren't many other feelings. Zhou Yutang felt that his hands were a little sore.

Two pens were scrapped, and each one was signed by Zhou Yutang. Even an iron man couldn't bear it.

In the evening, the organizer held a drink at a hotel in Shanghai to celebrate the success of the autograph signing event. Zhou Yutang met many friends in the cultural industry.

The more famous ones include Teacher Long Yi from the Tianchao Writers Association and several authors from the Zhejiang Writers Association.

Zhou Yutang is considered a junior. Although he is more popular than these seniors and is still a popular star recently, he did not put on any airs. He took turns to toast and drank a few more glasses with Teacher Long Yi.

China is like this. The wine table culture has a long history. As soon as the wine was drunk, Teacher Long Yi, who was a little serious at first, put his arm around Zhou Yutang's shoulders and called him brother.

When modern literati get together, they don't just recite poems, they just talk about creation.

After finishing the work, the several coquettish authors hit it off immediately. After dinner, they went straight to the club to press their feet and look for inspiration.

Zhou Yutang righteously rejected the invitations of several brothers.

He has to catch a flight back to Beijing.

……………………

Return to the capital.

Invitations to various events are pouring in.

Sister Shuang, who is Zhou Yutang's manager, has been really happy recently.

Watching Zhou Yutang become more famous with my own eyes gives me an overwhelming sense of accomplishment.

Recently, many film crews have sent invitations. Zhou Yutang read the scripts and rejected them all.

Basically, they are all small projects below A level. The characters are not outstanding, and it is not interesting to take them.

In this industry, it doesn’t mean that you can rise to the top just by doing more dramas and having more qualifications. The most important thing is actual performance. You have to have works that are good and recognized by the audience.

However, this is also a good thing.

The large number of invitations at least shows that Zhou Yutang is very popular.

He has officially shown his prominence in this circle.

"Yu Tang, what do you think of this new female singer's invitation to the male lead in her MV?"

"Didn't you refuse?"

Zhou Yutang and Sister Shuang were talking about work.

Just kidding, with his current traffic and celebrity status, he may not be as good as an A-list star, but he is still a popular niche.

The name Zhou Yutang is still in the top ten of Baidu Entertainment Hot Search List, and his two songs are also in the top ten of QQ Music Chart!

Let him carry the sedan chair for a new female singer?

There is no such possibility.

So when he received the invitation to be the male lead in the new singer's MV, Zhou Yutang refused without even thinking about it, even though the other party offered him 500,000 yuan.

"I think if you don't take a look, the other party has increased the money again, this time offering 1 million."

Sister Shuang said quietly: "I think it's very sincere."

"..."

Zhou Yutang was a little shocked.

Before filming "I Want to Meet You", Zeng Li's salary for a TV series was only a few hundred thousand, and A-list celebrities were only paid one to two million for a movie.

This is the male protagonist who directly spent 1 million on himself as the MV.

Not only is it sincere, it is simply too sincere!

Are all rich people today so willful?

Zhou Yutang is very cautious. He suspects that someone is trying to mess with him: "Sister Shuang, please let me know. The specific content of the shooting is not something inappropriate for children, right?"

"Don't worry, I've already asked people in the industry about it. This company was newly opened two years ago, but the boss is very powerful and is ready to spend money to develop the film and television industry. It's impossible to do what you think. "

"That can be discussed."

Zhou Yutang still nodded.

As long as you add money, I can also negotiate, and I can also shoot the MV...

Next, Sister Shuang stepped in and the matter was quickly settled.

Zhou Yutang accepted the order and spent 1 million to star in the new female singer's music video. He also met the CEO of the Starlight Film and Television Company who spent money on it.

Well, he has a Chinese-character face, a short haircut, and a POLO shirt tucked into the waistband of his suit. He looks like a dignified uncle from a position of authority.

Next to Mr. Lu, there was also a beautiful girl with an oval face and big eyes.

"Hello, Mr. Lu!"

Zhou Yutang greeted politely.

I read the information collected by Sister Shuang before coming here. This Mr. Lu is very powerful.

"Yes, you are young and handsome. You are the most popular and prominent person these days."

Mr. Lu looked at Zhou Yutang for a few times and nodded with satisfaction, as if he felt that his money was well spent.

"Just call me Yu Tang, Mr. Lu." Zhou Yutang smiled brightly.

"Yu Tang, let me introduce you. This is Jing Tian, ​​the daughter of an old friend of mine. Now she wants to enter the entertainment industry, so I asked someone to help her make a music EP."

Music EP refers to the abbreviation of mini album, commonly known as a small disc, which contains fewer songs and is sold at a cheaper price.

"You can listen to the song later. In the MV, Tiantian plays the heroine and you play the male lead. The specific shooting will follow the director's arrangements. Is there no problem?"

"There is no problem."

As long as the money is in place, there is no doubt about Zhou Yutang's professionalism.

"Well, you get to know Tiantian first. I have a meeting to hold here. If you have anything to do, just talk to the assistant directly. Tiantian can also make the decision."

Mr. Lu said something, then patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder, turned around and told the sweet girl to work harder as an elder.

"Thank you Uncle Lu, I will try my best."

The little beauty with an oval face smiled peacefully, showing her small millet teeth, and her big eyes turned into crescent moons.

After Mr. Lu left, Miss Jingtian shook hands with Zhou Yutang proactively and generously, blinked her big eyes, and looked at Zhou Yutang curiously:

"Zhou Yutang, you are more handsome than on TV."

"Thanks."

Facing the little rich woman's compliment, Zhou Yutang responded with a bright smile, which made girl Tiantian dizzy.

The two of them didn't know each other very well, and they didn't chat for too long.

Next, Jingtian sent over several songs and music videos related to this album.

Zhou Yutang was shocked when he saw it.

how to say……

There are a total of three songs in this music EP. The person who wrote the songs for Jing Tian is the queen of the music industry and the princess...

In addition, the director who shot the MV for the title song of the same name "Who Are You" is Zhou Yutang's senior at Beijing Film Academy, and he is also the dark horse director Ning Hao who made a name for himself in the industry last year with the movie "Crazy Stone"...

What kind of top-notch luxury lineup is this?

Newcomers' debut music EP, created by a team of top music producers, plus a new generation of powerful directors who are well-known in the industry, plus the most popular niche actor Zhou Yutang as the leading actor...

Is this the right way for newcomers in the entertainment industry to debut?

Zhou Yutang said it was an eye-opener.

In short, the matter has been settled, and the assistants sent by Mr. Lu have made arrangements. A table has been set up at a five-star hotel in Beijing tonight, mainly to invite the MV shooting team to get together and create some hype.

Zhou Yutang nodded readily and agreed. He also liked the movie "Crazy Stone" and wanted to meet senior brother Ning Hao.

In the evening, Zhou Yutang met senior brother Ning Hao as he wished.

Ning Hao is a senior in the directing department. He is not handsome, with a popular face and a slightly high hairline.

It's okay when he's not smiling, he looks a bit like a simple and honest farm boy, but when he smiles and matches the little gold chain around his neck, he feels a bit treacherous.

"Hello handsome guy."

Seeing Zhou Yutang, Senior Brother Ning Hao grinned and came up to shake hands and hug him very familiarly.

They are all members of the film school, and their relationship is inherently close.

"Hello, Senior Brother Ning."

Zhou Yutang also smiled helplessly.

This is a very popular meme on the Internet right now.

After the character "The handsome guy is me, Li Ziwei" in the TV series "Want to Meet You" became popular, many students followed suit and used correction fluid to write "The handsome guy is me" on the shoulder straps of their schoolbags, and then there were Netizens joked, "I am the handsome guy Zhou Yutang", and unexpectedly it became a buzzword on the Internet.

Zhou Yutang has inexplicably become synonymous with handsome guys.

That night, the MV shooting team had a meal in the hotel and had a chat, leaving a pretty good initial impression on each other.

Miss Jing Tian is very satisfied with the golden lineup of Ning Hao + Zhou Yutang, and Ning Hao and Zhou Yutang are also very satisfied with the generous rich woman...

In short, Qin Shi Huang touched the switch and won.

The next day, Zhou Yutang saw the true power of Qian's ability.

The photos of him, Ning Hao and Jing Tian in the same frame were directly on the headlines of several entertainment portals.

[Crazy director Ning Hao secretly met with popular niche actor Zhou Yutang to discuss cooperation. Newcomer Jing Tian is suspected of starring in Ning Hao’s new film as the heroine! 】

[Hotel staff exclusively broke the news! Director Ning Hao is casting for the new film, tapping potential newcomer Jing Tian, ​​and Zhou Yutang will be the leading actor! 】

This is not only the portal websites, but also the entertainment section of newspapers is full of this news.

It turns out that if you have money, you can really do whatever you want?

Zhou Yutang also received a call from Starlight Film and Television Company and explained to him in advance that this wave of hype is mainly for the sake of popularity and to build momentum for Miss Jingtian’s debut. When the music comes out, there will be another wave, and Zhou Yutang will follow. Cooperate with Ning Hao.

Understand!

Zhou Yutang was very professional and said that he would definitely cooperate.

There is absolutely no problem in collecting money to do things without involving your own interests.

Perhaps it was because the press release was well written, but director Ning Hao did have plans for a new film recently, so many viewers were attracted by the news.

Damn it, Ning Hao + Zhou Yutang, did they start something?

There is also this newcomer Jing Tian, ​​who seems to be an amateur. I don’t know where she comes from, but the girl is pretty good-looking.

After this series of operations, not to mention anything else, attention and traffic are directly in place.

As an amateur who has not yet entered the entertainment industry, Jing Tian frequently appears in entertainment news and is even more popular than some celebrities in the short term.

Most of the audience are also people who have fun, and their thoughts are very direct and simple - this girl Jing Tian is very good-looking.

Of course, the Leziren audience only knows this girl through gossip news now, and whether they will remember her in the future is another matter.

Senior Brother Ning Hao also knows the rules very well. He did not come out to explain to the media at the first time. Instead, he waited until the entertainment reports were fermented before he stood up and said:

"You guys have such rich imaginations. You misunderstood. It's not my new film casting. What I want to shoot is Jing Tian's debut MV. Zhou Yutang is the male protagonist of this MV..."

Then, Zhou Yutang also told the media that he was looking forward to cooperating with Jingtian and was very optimistic about her prospects. The girl was beautiful, generous and kind, which left a deep impression on him...

With such a smooth operation, Jing Tian's personal debut music EP has already gained a certain amount of attention even before it was released.

A few days later.

With proper preparations in the early stages, the MV shooting has officially begun!
