Become Famous Another Day

Chapter 294 aired (6,000 words updated)

 Liu Zhiyin was sweating profusely from her dance practice.

During the break, she wiped her sweat with a sweat towel and went to drink water.

The assistant said: "Lu Yanhe is on the hot search again."

Liu Zhiyin was a little surprised and asked, "What's the reason this time?"

“An excerpt of his episode of “Young Days”” said the assistant. “This is the fourth time this week that he has been trending.”

Liu Zhiyin nodded, "He has a lot of topics to talk about these days."

The assistant smiled and said: "Sister Zhiyin, should we also make some topics?"

 Liu Zhiyin looked at herself in the mirror.

 After so many years of training, she has a graceful and **** figure, with well-curved body, which is often praised by fans.

 Compared with the operation of topics, Liu Zhiyin is actually more familiar with this method of working hard to prepare a stage and blooming on the stage.

 However, the domestic entertainment industry does attach great importance to topics and the “topiciness” of artists in the online environment.

Liu Zhiyin has had a strong feeling about this in the past year since she returned to China. Compared with the idol artist industry model that she was familiar with overseas, there are no established and supporting job opportunities in China.

Her agency is even helping her choose scripts and wants to send her to the crew to act.

Yoo Ji-yin is not averse to acting, but she is very unfamiliar with this mode. Because there has been no fixed stage and no plans to release an album, it seems that any work she does is just consuming a little of her original popularity. There is very little work going on to bless her. Her popularity is indeed growing, but there are not many fans who are really attracted to her.

 Many partners have a very common evaluation of Liu Zhiyin after working with him, that is, they feel that Liu Zhiyin's style does not match domestic entertainment, and is too realistic and too serious.

This is also because Ryu Ji-yin rarely appears in variety shows of a "reality show" nature. In the past, they were all of a "game" nature or an "interview" nature.

She doesn’t quite know how to create some “effects” on a “reality show”, and her own personality isn’t very good at producing “effects” either.

The assistant said: "Lu Yanhe is so popular now, why don't you, Sister Zhiyin, get in touch with him more on the show?"

 In the first episode of the show, Ryu Ji-yin didn’t perform too well. Of course, it was much better than in other shows. Generally speaking, when she appears on other programs, she will be considered too utilitarian, too aggressive, and tiring. But in "Young Days", because most of them show the characteristics of "lazy and lazy", this aspect of her has become her specialty.

Liu Zhiyin shook his head and said: "I don't want to stir up topics with others, and his topics are not created by speculation."

The assistant shook his head, "Nowadays, there is no topic that can be popular without speculation. There is marketing behind it."

Liu Zhiyin knew that what she said might be right, but deliberately marketing some topics and finding materials that people are interested in and marketing are two different things.

-

 “Sister Zhiyin is so thin now.”

　　When recording the program for the second time, Xiao Yun held her arm with a look of envy and jealousy on his face, "Oh, I have gained several pounds."

“I see that Sister Zhiyin often posts photos of herself in the rehearsal room, practicing dancing every day.” Lu Yanhe said, “Why don’t you move more.”

Xiao Yun: "You have the nerve to accuse me, but I haven't exercised since I finished filming "Phoenix Terrace"."

 Lu Yanhe: “I don’t like eating as much as you do.”

ˆXiao Yun: “...Ah!”

She screamed angrily.

Others burst into laughter.

Liu Zhiyin couldn’t stop laughing. She patted Xiao Yun and said, “Dancing is fun, you can really try it.”

"If my limbs could dance, I wouldn't be an actor." Xiao Yun said seriously, "My mother sent me to learn dance when I was a child. After a week, the teacher came to my mother and said that people should choose a dance that suits them. Follow your own path and don’t waste time on a path that doesn’t suit you.”

 She had a lifeless expression on her face.

 Everyone burst into laughter again.

Liu Zhiyin suddenly thought of something and looked at Lu Yanhe and the others, "You guys should be good at dancing, right? I saw reports that you were also in a group."

Lu Yanhe pointed at Yan Liang and said, "He is the best dancer. He is really good at dancing. I am just a middle-class student who tries to keep up and does not lag behind. Li Zhibai is the one who pulls the most hips. Of course, he dances He has to be better than me, but he is just lazy and refuses to practice.”

Liu Zhiyin nodded.

“Are you going to record another program later, specifically for the idol stage?” Lu Yanhe asked.

Liu Zhiyin: "Yes, I know Li Zhibai and Yan Liang will also go, right?"

“Yes.” Yan Liang nodded, “The stage is being prepared.”

 Li Zhibai suddenly thought of something, "Then we can collaborate on a stage."

Lu Yanhe said with disgust: "Forget it. From what I know about you, you can't keep up with Sister Zhiyin's practice intensity. Yan Liang is okay."

Li Zhibai looked arrogant and said: "My stage control is top-notch."

Liu Zhiyin smiled and said, "We can go back and discuss it."

Song Linxin looked at Lu Yanhe and asked, "Didn't you participate?"

Lu Yanhe shook his head and said, "I have a lot of classes this semester, and I also have to prepare for the filming of "Six People", so there are no plans to record this show yet, but there should be one or two stages for performances. The program team contacted me because it is a program that is planned to run throughout the year. There is no rush to finish the recording in a month or two. If I have time later and prepare a good stage, I will still go. After all, I am the same. When an idol artist debuts, even though his abilities are not very good, he still has the heart to perform well. "

 He asked Qin Zhibai and Song Linxin, "Have you received the invitation to the show?"

"I got it, but I'm still hesitating." Song Linxin said, "I can only sing, not dance. My manager and I are worried that a stage that only sings will not be a big advantage in that show. After all, it is a competition. of."

 Qin Zhibai also nodded in agreement with Song Linxin's words.

 This is indeed a concern for many artists.

If it were not a traditional performance stage for idol artists, other forms of works would easily be outshined by a stage with an explosive atmosphere.

 Once they rank low, they will give the public the impression that they are really inferior to others.

“The main reason is that there has never been such a program in China where famous idol artists compete on the same stage, and we don’t know what this program will look like when it is produced.” Yan Liang said.

“There was no such thing before.” Li Zhibai said, “Usually there was a serious stage performance at a party.”

Liu Zhiyin said: "Now some music festivals will invite me to perform."

“In the past, music festivals mainly focused on niche and avant-garde music, but now they are becoming more and more diversified.” Peng Zhixing said, “I used to go to various music festivals, and I went there a lot.”

Qin Zhibai: “I went to the music festival and the atmosphere was very good.”

Song Linxin nodded and said: “The atmosphere at the music festival is really good, and I have a great time singing every time I go to the music festival.”

"After all, music is not the key when it comes to stage performances such as parties." Peng Zhixing said, "The atmosphere of the music festival is just music, and the audience at the scene basically comes for the music. The feeling is indeed different. "

Lu Yanhe turned around and asked Li Zhibai and Yan Liang in a low voice: "Have you two gone to the music festival?"

 The two men shook their heads together.

None of the three of them are singers known for their singing skills. On the contrary, after Lu Yanhe's "Remember" became a hit, he received invitations from many music festivals. Maybe he felt that this song was more in line with the tone of the music festival. It was very youthful and very campus-like, but at that time Lu Yanhe was preparing for the college entrance examination and rejected everything.

Later on, Lu Yanhe was probably more well-known for his attributes as an actor. Except for some party activities, there were not many singing job offers.

Even the director of "Little Songs Gathering Crowds" didn't look for him again.

Liu Zhiyin said: "I don't dare to perform at this kind of music festival."

 “Why?” Everyone looked at her in confusion.

Ryu Ji-yin said: "Because I was in a girl group before, we all performed together on the stage and the songs. Basically, there were no solo songs. Moreover, after I returned to China, the copyright communication was not very smooth, and I couldn't sing many songs, so My current performances are basically covers of other singers’ songs. Music festivals should be more original. I always feel that it’s weird to always sing other people’s songs at music festivals.”

 Lu Yanhe listened to Liu Zhiyin speaking this song, and inexplicably heard some inferiority and sadness in her words.

 Mingming is usually such a hard-working and enterprising person.

Xiao Yun asked doubtfully: "Didn't your company help you buy songs for a single?"

"I'm also collecting songs, but because I just came back not long ago, if I really want to create an album, it won't be released in a year or two. I have to work hard and not let everyone forget me." Liu Zhiyin sighed as she spoke, "Actually, recording a show with you is the most relaxing time for me. It seems that only by recording a show with you, I will be scolded less."

 Everyone looked at each other.

 These words...are a bit difficult to answer for no reason.

Lu Yanhe immediately answered: "Because this is the first program you recorded after returning to China, the audience doesn't know you. When everyone gets familiar with you, they will definitely know that you are a very good person, and there will be no So many misunderstandings about your voice.”

Song Linxin laughed and said, "Sister Zhiyin, how about I write a song for you?"

“Huh?” Liu Zhiyin was stunned and looked at Song Linxin with some surprise, “Really?”

Song Linxin nodded.

Everyone knows that Song Linxin can write songs.

However, Song Linxin usually sings the songs he writes by himself, and has never written songs for others.

When Lu Yanhe heard what Song Linxin said, he suddenly remembered that he had promised to write a song for Li Zhibai and Yan Liang.

They are both going to record "Idol Era". At this time, they can have a new song to perform on the show.

  Yuming almost turns into autumn overnight.

As soon as Lu Yanhe woke up, he sneezed without even reacting.

 A very loud sound.

Mao Jiayang came back from his morning jog, and all he breathed out was white air.

Lu Yanhe wrapped himself in the quilt, sat on the bed, and asked sleepily, "Is it very cold today?" Mao Jiayang nodded and said, "The temperature has dropped, it's almost only ten degrees."

 Lu Yanhe: “No wonder I feel cold.”

Mao Jiayang asked: "Do you have classes in the morning?"

“There are classes.” Lu Yanhe’s face was full of pain, “I really regret that I chose so many elective courses for myself at eight o’clock in the morning.”

Mao Jiayang laughed.

 “What time did you go to bed last night?”

“Twelve o’clock.” Lu Yanhe yawned as he said this, “There’s a lot of homework.”

Mao Jiayang: "If you persist, we will take winter vacation."

 “There are two months left?” Lu Yanhe yawned again, and this time he really woke up.

 It’s only November.

 The winter vacation will not be until early January.

Mao Jiayang: “Classes will be completed one after another in December.”

"That's true." Lu Yanhe said, "However, by December, I will also start filming "Six People", and there will still be a lot of things to do."

Mao Jiayang: "I think the actors for "Party of Six" have not been found yet? I saw a message from the media yesterday saying that you are selecting actors."

"We are indeed still looking for actors," Lu Yanhe said, "Because it is a sitcom, rather than looking for actors with particularly good acting skills, we hope to find people whose personalities are close to and similar to the characters, so that the filming will be much smoother. "

Mao Jiayang didn’t know much about acting. Hearing what Lu Yanhe said, he nodded.

 Lu Yanhe got out of bed and asked, "Why did you get up so early today?"

Mao Jiayang said: "Because I have to accompany Xiaoxiao to take pictures."

 “What are you shooting?”

“She wants to shoot a documentary about a breakfast restaurant as an assignment in photography class.”

 “Should journalism students learn photography?”

“Hmm.” Mao Jiayang said, “It’s still a compulsory course, and I also need to learn editing.”

Lu Yanhe changed his clothes, picked up his schoolbag and went to the cafeteria.

There were not many people on campus, which made people think that many people had not gotten up, but once they entered the cafeteria, it was not at all lively like a cool morning.

Lu Yanhe bought a bowl of beef noodles. When he was looking for a place, Wang Xiao suddenly waved to him in the crowd, "Yanhe!"

 He indicated that there was an empty seat opposite him.

Lu Yanhe passed by with a smile.

 “I haven’t seen you for a while.” Wang Xiao said.

Lu Yanhe said: “I’m either in class or recording programs outside, or I have other work, so I’m very busy during this time.”

“Let me tell you, I used to see you often in school, but I haven’t seen you in the past half month. I thought you were knocked down by the voices on the Internet and were too embarrassed to go out.”

“No, why not?” Lu Yanhe smiled, “Besides, it’s actually not bad. I look online now and there are still many people who support me.”

Wang Xiao was about to speak but stopped.

"What's wrong?"

"Everyone supports you, but they are still not optimistic about the results of "Six People"." Wang Xiao hesitated and asked, "What do you think? Do you want to take on such a drama that will only be broadcast on TV stations?"

Lu Yanhe: "There are many reasons. When all aspects are taken together, I am willing to give it a try. If the broadcast results are really not good, then forget it."

Wang Xiao said: "Are you really not afraid of failure at all? When the ratings drop, your reputation will also drop."

"How can I not be afraid?" Lu Yanhe said, "But I think it's okay even if it fails. They want to adopt such a broadcast format. I think it's not good for a sitcom that is broadcast weekly. "What the heck, if it wasn't a weekly show, if it wasn't only eight episodes, or if it wasn't a sitcom, I might be a little more concerned and maybe not shoot it."

Wang Xiao was a little surprised and asked: "Is there any difference between them?"

"Because the correlation between each episode of a sitcom is not particularly strong. It is not like leaving you with a mystery in the previous episode and solving it for you in the next episode. It is like a few fixed people playing different roles. It’s the same as story sketches. Once a sketch is over, it’s over,” Lu Yanhe said, “After the first episode was broadcast, everyone thought it was good and left such an impression. If nothing happens next week, they can sit in front of the TV and watch it again. The second episode is ready, it’s not too long, only 20 minutes. I think the format of “Six People” is suitable for broadcast on a TV station.”

“Wouldn’t it be more suitable to be broadcast on a video platform?” Wang Xiao asked.

"Maybe, but according to the algorithm of the video platform, it may not be really popular." Lu Yanhe said, "First of all, if it is a network broadcast, then most people who are interested in the drama will choose to watch it on the video website, and the situation The absolute number of viewers who are interested in comedy is not as large as that of dramas with other themes. I don’t know if you watch the drama or not, but in the current environment, one is that sitcoms have not had a hit for a long time. , no platform will be optimistic about it and give it good publicity and distribution resources. The other is that the more episodes the drama has, it has an advantage on video websites because it can retain users and increase the time spent watching the drama, and we are eight The episode is broadcast weekly and only lasts 20 minutes. The small number of viewers who can contribute to the video platform in terms of the number of users, viewing time and membership acquisition is very disadvantageous. Instead of this, it is better to put it on the TV station alone. If we broadcast, we might be able to make a comeback.”

When Wang Xiao heard what Lu Yanhe said, he looked suddenly enlightened and said, "So there is something like this."

Seeing Wang Xiao's expression of realization, Lu Yanhe quickly said: "This is just my own judgment. It may not be right. Don't think it's true. I don't know if it's right or not. Maybe I'll wait until the show is aired. , and it proves that I was wrong, it’s not the case at all.”

Wang Xiao: "It sounds reasonable to me. It doesn't matter whether it's right or not, as long as you didn't make the decision casually. I thought you were deceived."

Lu Yanhe couldn’t laugh or cry, and asked: “Is this thing so outrageous? It makes you think that I have been deceived.”

 Wang Xiao: “You can’t blame me for this, almost everyone doesn’t understand this approach.”

Lu Yanhe: "That's because everyone doesn't know that this drama was intended to try this approach from the beginning, so the production cost was kept very low. With the average ratings of Beijing and Taiwan, and after the broadcast, it will definitely be sold to video websites Yes, it’s basically impossible to lose money.”

Wang Xiao nodded.

Wang Xiao suddenly smiled and asked: "How about you bring the crew of "Six People" to the forum of our Youth Association for a sharing and exchange activity before the broadcast?"

 “Huh?” Lu Yanhe was stunned.

Wang Xiao said: "At least it can be publicized."

“Put it down. They are all college students and do not have TV sets. They are not our target group.” Lu Yanhe said.

Wang Xiao: "Who are you looking down on? They are all college students who are about to go back for winter vacation. Who doesn't have a TV at home?"

He added: "Also, haven't you seen these TV sets in the cafeteria?"

Wang Xiao raised his head and gestured to the TV hanging on the wall and wall pillars in the cafeteria.

 Generally the news is played here.

Wang Xiao said: "I will help you secure several canteens in the school, and you will bring them to the Youth Association for exchange activities. I will let you broadcast your drama on every public TV in the school." "Six People".

Lu Yanhe looked at Wang Xiao in surprise and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Finally, he smiled sincerely and said: "Senior, I have known you for so long, and I finally realize how lucky I am to know you."

 "Phoenix Terrace" arrived at this time as promised.

 One week before the broadcast, the schedule is set.

 Subsequently, Lu Yanhe received a notice from the crew and cooperated with the crew's promotional activities. He attended the press conference in Yuming and chatted online with the main actors to tell some interesting things during the filming period to promote the drama.

 The level of "Phoenix Terrace" is top-notch.

This kind of drama may have a weak following, or it may have a good reputation, but it will definitely not be a blockbuster - this is the biggest difference between dramas and movies.

Basically, for dramas that attract a lot of attention, they only have good word-of-mouth and popularity, but not good broadcast data and popularity. Basically, they are not much different.

Especially for those dramas with huge reputations, you will find that their broadcast data is completely inversely proportional to their reputation.

The more fierce the scolding, the better the broadcast.

At first, Lu Yanhe thought it was because capitalists had money and could make money by buying data. Later, he gradually realized that it seemed that it was not that simple.

Lu Yanhe played a supporting role in "Phoenix Terrace".

Because Lu Yanhe's status has soared in the past six months, he obviously joined the "Phoenix Channel" as a supporting role at the beginning. When it was officially broadcast, the show gave Lu Yanhe the status of a special guest starring.

Lu Yanhe thought it was Chen Ziyan who requested it for him, but Chen Ziyan said that she had never bothered with the show about this matter.

 Chen Ziyan is an agent who sees further than Lu Yanhe. It is impossible for her to get entangled in such vain things in Chen Lingling's drama.

 Then Lu Yanhe realized that this was Huang Cheng reciprocating a favor and thanking Lu Yanhe for his previous behavior of keeping silent during the Lang Xia and Chen Wenwen incident.

Because "Phoenix Channel" was broadcast on Beijing and Taiwan, Lu Yanhe also went to a popular show on Beijing and Taiwan with the crew to promote the show.

Lang Xia did not appear.

It is said that the crew deliberately removed him from the publicity team, not wanting his personal affairs to affect the public opinion of the show.

  The first episode of "Phoenix Channel" received a good rating of 0.645% on Beijing TV - the finale of the TV series it followed only had a ratings of 0.424%.

 So, why are all platforms rushing to get this kind of S+-level drama?

 The broadcast data of "Phoenix Channel" on video websites is even better.

 Within one hour after it went online, more than five million viewers clicked to watch it, making it quite a drama king.

　　　Starting from tomorrow, the daily update time will be moved to 8 am, so that I can be more relaxed and can write to the point I want to write before updating.

Everyone, just come and watch it at eight o’clock every morning. There will be no time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, starting from the day after tomorrow. It's 8 o'clock tomorrow morning, it's updated now.
