I didn't want to be an actor

Why is Hua Chenyu’s reputation so polarized?

Except for his fans, almost no passers-by listened to his singing...

But to be fair, he is at least much better than those traffickers.

Why is it annoying?

The reason is simple: the publicity team’s marketing model is wrong.

If you promote honestly, outstanding young singers, outstanding musicians... the controversy will never be as big as it is now.

You praise him every day as the King of Heaven, the number one person in the Chinese music scene today, don't you want to scold him?

Wang Feng is a celebrity of his level and status. Half of the Chinese music scene has been blacklisted for several years, and the meme of Wang Banbi has been circulating for a long time.

To be fair, is Hua Chenyu comparable to Wang Feng?

Wang Feng only became what he is today after passing the test of the big market.

What is a big market is a market facing the entire society.

It is not easy to be recognized by the big market, so it takes longer.

Hua Chenyu is different. He is also recognized by the market, but this market is his fan circle!

fandom…

Strength is not the only way to rise to the top. A likable personality is often more effective than strength.

Once a certain number of fans are gathered, there will naturally be a market for the work.

Because in the perception of fans, idols' works are high-quality products and worth spending money to buy.

But in the eyes of the public, there is just no work...

Of course, from a marketing perspective, it is a success!

If you pull off a successful gimmick, you will earn more; if you pull off a gimmick that fails and is controversial, you may earn even more!

Ahem...

But now you want to step on Shen Liang?

Shen Liang was really puzzled: "He said he was crazy. Even Mr. Wang Cong didn't dare to mess with me... So brave? Doesn't he know that I know martial arts?"

"This is what his team always does..."

Shen Liang frowned: "What did the company say?"

"I haven't reported it to the company yet..." Chen Jiadong continued: "I want to teach him a lesson first..."

"What lesson?"

"His uncle's affairs, buying a few press releases... and other unclear matters with fans..."

Shen Liang was speechless: "What kind of lesson is this? At most, it only scratches the surface..."

"...That's enough!"

Shen Liang thought for a while and whispered: "Get someone to check. I heard that he has a child..."

"Ah? Where did you hear that?"

"Then don't worry about it. The child's mother seems to be Zhang Bichen..."

Chen Jiadong was excited: "Is it true? They are related? No way!"

Shen Liang was stunned for a moment: "I heard about it too, please don't spread the word..."

"Tsk, tsk, he already has a child, and he still sells innocent designs... No wonder you look down on him!"

"...You investigate first and get the evidence first," Shen Liang paused and added, "I guess his team won't be so stubborn and insist on provoking me!"

…

Weibo Night, a comprehensive honor ceremony hosted by Sina in mainland China...

In fact, each major platform has its own annual award ceremony. iQiyi has Screaming Night, Fujian has Star Awards, and Youku has...Youku Festival.

Shen Liang did not participate in any of these activities.

On the one hand, there is really no time, on the other hand, there is no reward, so there is no point in just performing!

It’s understandable, after all, these three are all long-form video platforms that are good at content, and Shen Liang doesn’t have a single work...

Weibo night…

It was agreed that there would be an award for Weibo’s annual new music force...

By the way, I want to perform a song. Weibo wants Shen Liang to sing "Seaweed Dance". Shen Liang wants to sing "Flowers Along the Road", so I might as well neutralize it and sing "Bohu Shuo"...

After Shen Liang arrived at BJ, he went directly to find Mao Buyi - Mao Buyi, like him, was a winner of the New Music Power Award. The difference was that Mao Buyi wanted to sing "Xiaochou" live...

Seeing Shen Liang, Mao Buyi complained directly: "It's "Xiaochou" again. It feels like I have no other songs..."

"If you don't want to sing, you can tell them..."

"...My agent agreed!"

"...Your agent didn't discuss it with you?"

"She...has reduced my schedule..." Speaking of this, Mao Buyi looked at Shen Liang: "I really envy you!"

"What's wrong with me?"

"On the surface, he looks quite easy-going, but he is actually quite strong. He never compromises. He basically has the final say in his own career."

Shen Liang shrugged: "...That's because I can bear the risk of making the wrong choice. If you insist that your choice is right, you can also refuse forcefully!"

"...No matter what you choose, it's all about working and making money, it doesn't matter!"

"You already think so, then just accept it." After saying this, Shen Liang looked at the time: "How about I treat you to some Beijing-style delicacies?"

"Douzhi'er?"

Shen Liang nodded with a sincere expression: "Yeah, soybean juice + braised fire + hairy tripe! When people from outside the country come to BJ, I usually use this three-piece set. The taste is so authentic!"

"Is it very authentic?"

"I'm telling you, it's absolutely authentic. You can't eat such authentic BJ flavor in other places!"

Mao Buyi smacked his lips and said with a bit of regret: "...I don't have enough time. We have to enter the venue after six o'clock... next time."

Shen Liang looked around...

It's really not suitable. The few stores he knows that specialize in three-piece suits are a bit far away from here. Even if you take a taxi back and forth, it's a bit late...

What a shame!

I could only take him to the nearby Huguo Temple and have some snacks.

Weibo Night was held at the Water Cube…

…

There is a saying that goes like this: If you don’t participate in activities, you don’t know that you are a small person!

During Mango TV’s New Year’s Eve celebration, Shen Liang was at least able to be in the C position on the posters for the artist promotion. However, when it came to Weibo Night, Shen Liang simply stood in the third row on the posters for the multi-person promotion, and was not even in the C position…

The C position was Wu Yifan!

Uh, that year 23, standing like a minion…

In addition, the C position in the first row was Li Yuchun, Yang Mi was on the right, and Zhao Liying was on the left…

Li Yuchun has always been the C position or the finale…

It doesn’t matter who comes…

It’s like this, her team only accepts C position posters - for example, the 2021 818 Gala, when the Tokyo Olympics had just ended, it was the time when the athletes were the hottest. The original poster’s main C was Xu Xin, and the deputy C was Sun Yiwen, both of whom were Olympic champions.

But soon after, this version of the poster was replaced, and the C position became Li Yuchun…

Ability and background?

Neither, it was simply a negotiation between the team.

They really care about the ranking and standing, more than the actual performance of the work.

In the original time and space, Shen Liang asked a friend out of curiosity. The friend was in charge of activities and was an insider.

‘There are obviously people with higher status, why is she in the C position? ’

Answer: This is the request of the artist team!

Then he asked, ‘Is it because there is no request for others not to be in the C position? ’

Answer: Yes, there are very few artists who insist that I must be in the C position regardless of the consequences. It’s just a poster, and most people don’t care.

Moreover, she will not participate in activities that are definitely not the C position, and she can even reduce or even not pay the appearance fee in order to get the C position...

She cares so much!

However, at the scene, it seems that everyone is not familiar with her...

Oh, Shen Liang is sitting in the third row, chatting with Mao Buyi and Xue Zhiqian...

“I thought you were not coming!”

“How could I not come? This is Weibo, and I am not a superstar...”

Xue Zhiqian suddenly pointed to Zhao Liying in the front row: “Aren’t you filming with Zhao Liying?”

“...But I am just an acquaintance with her!”
