"There seems to be another person who is also American, right? That Tao Zhe."

"Is he American? I think he is Chinese, right?"

"real or fake?"

"Really—forget it, it doesn't matter if it's true or not."

Hu Ge thought about it for a while, but for a while he really couldn't think of any specific information about this person.

In the current mainland music market, there are only these two young singers who are qualified to follow in Zhou Yi's footsteps and are considered by many Zhou Yi fans to be trying. For this reason, some Zhou Yi extreme fans They were also very considerate and gave them nicknames based on their characteristics.

As for Tao Zhe?

To say it's unfamiliar is really unfamiliar.

The stuttering, horse-faced "Nunchaku" and "Only", at least once, competed with Zhou Yi on the list, and they also reached the top of the list.

As for Tao Zhe, his most popular songs in the mainland are "Melody" and the adapted version of "The Moon Represents My Heart", which even Adu has not beaten.

But it is precisely because of this that Tao Zhe has become a singer who can be called by his full name by some extreme Zhouyi fans, so he has not been given a nickname for the time being.

Hu Ge and Yuan Hong are not one of those extreme fans, but they watch it too much on weekdays, so they are somewhat affected when chatting in private, and call those two people by black names.

As college students in contemporary art schools, they actually don’t have the status of being a die-hard fan of anyone, even if that person is Zhou Yi. They are more like the ideal fans that Zhou Yi said in his first exclusive interview with "Contemporary Music Circle" when he debuted——

Don't pay attention to his life, just focus on music.

Especially Hugo.

As a well-known advertising prince in the school, although he can also sing well and was sometimes nicknamed "Shanghai Beach Low Pair Little Zhou Yi" when performing on stage in school, what he actually prefers is acting.

Not to mention Yuan Hong.

The reason why he first joined an offline Zhouyi fan club was just because there were many good-looking girls there. For this reason, he also specially learned the "unpopular songs" from Zhouyi's past albums to show that he actually had "higher taste and more "Unique", reflecting the personality of an intellectual and cultural person.

Typical songs include "Susan Said", "Sound Waves", "West Wing" and other songs.

Then after studying it, he really became a fan of Zhouyi.

And it is precisely for this reason that among Zhou Yi's third album "Lianshan", the ones he is most familiar with now are not "Fairy Tales", "Little Dimples", "Today You Will Marry Me", "Cheers" and other popular songs , but a niche A-side song.

Among them, the three songs "Can you feel my world", "In the Name of the Father" and "Ghost" have successfully become Yuan Hong's weapon to show off to the outside world by virtue of their popularity, which is considered to be the lowest in the entire series of Zhouyi albums since his debut.

There was originally another song "Killer", but two weeks ago, the popularity of "Killer", which is relatively more popular in composition and arrangement, gradually increased - I can't say it became a big hit, at least it was moderate.

With the support of the mixed circle concept of niche and cool style, Yuan Hong decisively kicked it out of his pretentious material library, because this song can no longer provide him with the advantage of "everyone is drunk and I am alone" Now that I feel it, I no longer have the capital to show off in front of my sister.

"This is the first time I've watched a concert in my life. I didn't expect that I would contribute so much to Zhou Yi."

More than ten minutes later, Yuan Hong felt a little emotional when he took two tickets from scalpers in a small alley like a secret agent.

It’s not like no celebrities have come to Shanghai to hold concerts in the past. At most, he just passed by and had no intention of buying a ticket. It's not because he is poor. Although he doesn't shoot as many commercials as his good brother Hu Ge, it's still more than enough to watch a concert.

Just too lazy to go.

Hu Ge on the side did not speak. Instead, he held the ticket in his hand in the sun as if he was checking real money and fake money, and squinted his eyes slightly to distinguish the real money from the fake.

"Don't look at it. It can't be true. I've talked to him before on Langma UC."

Yuan Hong, who didn't see anything wrong, couldn't help laughing when he saw his good brother being so careful, and immediately tried to dissuade him: "And this person was introduced by my friend. My friend not only does Langma UC, which has become popular recently, but also likes He accepts all QQ, NetEase chat rooms and other channels, and won’t——"

"Yuan Hong!"

Suddenly, Hu Ge shouted. The former was startled, his body trembled subconsciously, and then he looked at him doubtfully: "What's wrong?"

"Fake."

Hu Ge snatched the ticket from his hand, and in the latter's confused eyes, he judged the authenticity according to the identification method previously announced by Warner officials: "Your ticket is also fake."

"..."

"I just said there must be something fishy about being so cheap! Why are you standing still! Chase after me!"

Hu Ge, who hated iron and steel, rushed towards the scalper who had just left. While running, he still took out his mobile phone and called the police. After Yuan Hong came to his senses, he followed him belatedly, and when Sayazi ran over, he felt smoke coming out of his throat——

"Hey! Stop! Don't run!"

Two young and strong college students started a chase on a busy street with a scalper who had not yet had time to unlock the bike and ride away.

This scene is already the 58th case of scalper counterfeit ticket fraud reported by the police in various districts of Shanghai so far, forcing the Shanghai police to directly announce this incident as a case today to remind the public. And tourists: "Beware of new online fraud methods...".

Because there were still people in the police station who knew Hu Ge, a young host who had hosted a show, the police also took photos of Hu Ge and Yuan Hong, who immediately called the police for help, and used their experience in identifying counterfeit bills for publicity. , published in the newspaper.

………………………………

"Newspaper? What's the headline?"

Hong Kong, Mandarin Oriental Hotel.

Zhou Yi, who had finally had enough sleep, was sitting on the sofa in the living room, eating the luxurious dinner served by the hotel staff. The chopsticks in his hand were turning over the meat under the chili peppers. Hearing this, he couldn't help but pause. The probe looked at Qian Jiang who opened the door of the suite and walked in.

"Your first TV show."

With that said, Qian Jiang threw the newspaper next to Zhou Yi——

"First kiss on screen?" First electric shock! Zhouyi's only TV series so far! 》

It's less exaggerated and more exclamation points. The accompanying photo is of Zhou Yi holding a guitar on the set of "Pink Girl" and chatting and laughing with a group of actors - Cheng Hao, who is smiling sweetly, is standing next to him. Beside me, in the center of the photo.

The original heroine Liu Ruoyin of this drama did not have any scenes.

"'Pink Lady' is ready to air?"

Although the gimmick is very exaggerated, the content is basically the same old TV series promotion, except that the main subject of the promotion has become him.

Obviously, this should be the beginning of the show's momentum.

"Yes, you can't enter Taiwan seriously now to maintain popularity, so you need some new stimulation points, so the company agreed to the publicity strategy given there..."

Qian Jiang nodded.

The promotion of a TV series should have been out of reach for Zhou Yi. But this "Pink Girl" is the only TV series that Zhou Yi has officially recorded as an appearance since his debut, even if it was just a guest appearance——

However, the showrunners did not specify it, but instead used an ambiguous "special starring" to describe Zhou Yi.

Even on the Taiwan promotional poster for the drama "Pink Girl", Zhou Yi's personal image openly occupies the center position. Not only that, his personal image is also very large, so large that it is almost as big as several major actors.

It's hard not to imagine this.

The most important thing is that even Liu Ruoyin, the lead female lead in this drama, would cue Zhou Yi from time to time when being interviewed on variety shows. For example, he originally intended to visit Ban Chenghao, but as a result, the crew was missing a character at that time, so he asked Zhou Yi After a while, I became Li Bai in the play, and even wrote a song called "Li Bai" for this——

Cheng Hao, who was just a little transparent at first, gained a certain reputation in Taiwan in almost a short period of time.

All because of Liu Ruoyin's words: "If I could do it all over again, I would be Li Bai." This is not just a lyric. At the beginning, we all joked that Zhou Yi was too involved in the drama. We really wanted to get together with Cheng Hao. , that’s why I wrote such a lyric.”

In Taiwan's Zhouyi cp world, where fans of Elva Hsiao and Sun Yanzi are divided between the two, while they were still verbally criticizing Hong Kong's Cai Zhuoyan, a mainland woman named Cheng Hao quietly emerged from Liu Ruoyin's mouth. Instantly brought back many people’s memories——

"Isn't this the heroine from the MV for "Flower Field"?"

"Wait a minute, she seems to be the heroine of the "In the Name of the Father" MV!"

Before the drama was aired, the attention was already full, and the sales data of Zhou Yi's new album "Lianshan" also rebounded as the promotion of this TV series began.

"They are not afraid of word-of-mouth backlash."

Zhou Yi was a little dumbfounded.

He only has so many roles, why is his face so big on the poster?

There was even a sign about his role in the drama at the offline promotion site, which is outrageous.

Mahua looked at it and called him an expert.

"Rolling Stone is quite confident. They should be very optimistic about the quality of this show. It just so happens that you can't enter Taiwan, so their promotion can help you gain popularity. It's a win-win situation."

For Qian Jiang who is used to marketing, although this is a bit unethical, since he is already in the entertainment industry, this is nothing to worry about.

As long as the quality of the drama is good, everything can be reversed.

"Besides, they didn't admit that you were the leading actor. They only said that you were here to help temporarily. They only said that you and Cheng Hao were a couple. Strictly speaking, they didn't lie. But don't worry, they will tell you when they get to the mainland. It won’t be promoted like this, it will only be made clear that you have a guest appearance.”

Qian Jiang made the bottom line clear: "'Pink Girl' will premiere in Taiwan in December. In the Mainland, because it needs to be submitted for review, it will probably be broadcast between March and April next year. There is plenty of time. Then you can say that you don't know anything, I’m handling it.”
