Chapter 625 Zhu Yiyi replaces Liu Bayi

It's not easy to find a leading actor for a director's quiz.

In his previous life, Zhu once became popular not only because of the excellent script itself, but also because of Zhu once's acting skills.

If Zhu's success is all attributed to the director's quiz, it would be the same as saying that the director's quiz was nothing without Zhu Yi. It is tantamount to going from one extreme to the other.

Facial paralysis is the most difficult performing skill.

If you don’t exert enough force, you become a corpse; if you exert too much force, you become Yang Mi.

In his previous life, Zhu once performed the best and most classic facial paralysis.

He will have a sinister facial expression, a "funny" facial expression, a surprise facial expression and a boring facial expression.

In the facial paralysis world, there is only one person who can compete with him, and that is Wang Dachui.

Cheng Yi didn't want the original Zhu Yiyi, so he could only find Zhu Yiyi's replacement, but it was not that easy to find someone who could rival Zhu Yiyi.

For the next period of time, Cheng Yi searched for Zhu Yiyi's replacement, but there was still no satisfactory candidate. When several Internet celebrities who auditioned showed boring expressions, they all fell short of Zhu Yiyi.

Cheng Yi and Zhang Chai were not satisfied and said they would look for it again.

In fact, Cheng Yi can find an actor. After all, he has a lot of resources. It is not difficult to find a middle-aged actor who can play the role of an entrepreneur. However, this method has never been an option for Cheng Yi.

First, it is difficult to control actors who only sell their skills but not their bodies.

Second, Cheng Yi did not want to simply make a popular short video series, but wanted to create a "Zhu Yi".

"Zhu Yiyi" is not only an image in the play, but also an IP!

If "Zhu Yiyi" is revealed by netizens to be an actor, it will be meaningless and the halo will be broken instantly.

What we want is to confuse netizens so that they can’t tell whether it’s on-screen or off-screen.

This will make netizens curious, and they will spontaneously guess whether "Zhu Yiyi" really exists in reality, and whether "Zhu Yiyi" is really a rich man.

Only in this way will the popularity continue to be generated. When netizens discover the false identity that Cheng Yi created for "Zhu Yiyi", in the social atmosphere of being strong and money-worshiping, the image of "Zhu Yiyi" will instantly stand up and break down.

The boundary between the inside and outside of the short film has become a super big IP.

The road and Cheng Yi were all paved by "Zhu Yiyi".

But where is "Zhu Yiyi"?

Finally, after searching around, Cheng Yi found such a person from beside him.

…

Liu Bayi, this man is the chairman of Blue Bird Company, a pet toy company that Cheng Yi and Yan Jiaoni acquired a month ago.

After a month, Blue Bird Company has almost completed the delivery. As the former chairman of Blue Bird Company, this period of time is indeed quite boring for him.

Now, he was eager to find something to do. When he heard that Cheng Yi was looking for a rich man with a paralyzed face to shoot a short video, he immediately became interested and took the initiative to apply.

After the audition, Cheng Yi was quite satisfied. Liu Bayi's expression was so mean, and he performed the boring energy to perfection.

"Mr. Cheng, you really saved me!" Liu Bayi held Cheng Yi's hand and burst into tears of gratitude:

"Now that the company has been acquired by you, I really don't know what to do. Although there are still one or two companies under my name, they are all managed by professional managers, so I don't need to worry about it at all.

Now I think about how to pass the time all day long. I didn’t know that passing the time is so difficult!

Talk about traveling. We have visited all over the country, including Pu'er in Yunnan, Manzhouli, the city that never sleeps, and the Potala Palace on the Loess Plateau. The villa in Hainan has not been decorated yet.

What are you talking about about horse riding and yachting? I have my own horse farm and yacht. It’s boring, really boring, let alone racing and gliding.”

"Mr. Liu, okay, okay, stop talking." Cheng Yi covered his forehead speechlessly:

Damn it, I haven’t played it yet, I’ve already asked you to pretend!

"Anyway, Mr. Cheng!" Liu Badi said, "Being an Internet celebrity is interesting, so interesting. I envy Mr. Cheng, who is recognized by people everywhere. I used to be envious of him, but now I finally have the opportunity.

, I can also enjoy it myself!”

Liu Bayi felt that the second spring of his career had been stimulated.

"That's fine, as long as you like to be an Internet celebrity." Cheng Yi said, "But Mr. Liu, we still have to sign the contract."

Liu Bayi patted his chest and said cheerfully: "That's no problem! I understand all the rules!"

After signing the contract, the filming of "Liu Bayi's Boring Life" officially started.

Because Cheng Yi and Zhang Che jointly created the script, the progress was very fast. Before filming started, the two had completed 30 issues.

It took five days for the official shooting to finish all thirty videos, and then came the uploading stage.

Cheng Yi adopted a completely different operating method from that of Zhu Yi's previous team. He did not let Zhang Te hide behind the scenes, but asked Zhang Te to be a screenwriter and jointly contribute.

The first is to check and balance Liu Bayi, because Liu Bayi is difficult to control. He has money himself. He is an Internet celebrity just because he is interested. When the interest is exhausted, something might happen, so he must be on guard.

The second is to train Zhang Che so that he can be exposed to the public as soon as possible and accumulate fame.

Zhang Chai is of great use to Cheng Yi. I will wait for him to film the "Square Series" in the future!

Thirty issues of videos, one will be uploaded every day in the early stage, until all are uploaded.

On the first day the video was uploaded, the number of views was only tens of thousands. Only some lucky viewers saw it and left some comments and likes.

The day after the video was uploaded, the number of views began to rise to hundreds of thousands. The number of followers of Liu Bayi's account "Liu Bayi's Boring Life" exceeded 10,000, and the number of followers of Zhang Chai's account "Director's Quiz" exceeded 5,000.

On the third day after the video was uploaded, the number of views increased to 200,000. Because of its consistently brilliant script and Liu Bayi's stunning facial expression, some fans have turned into true fans.

On the fourth day after the video was uploaded, the number of views reached more than 400,000. Liu Bayi's true fans began to defend Liu Bayi, asking in the comment area why it was good but not popular, and why Station X did not recommend such a good work.

, only recommend low-impact videos.

On the fifth day after the video was uploaded, Cheng Yi felt that it was almost done and no longer deliberately suppressed Liu Bayi's popularity.

The words "Liu Bayi's boring life" appeared in the hot search box of Station X.

On the sixth day after the video was uploaded, the seventh video of "Liu Bayi's Boring Life" appeared on the homepage of Station X.

On the seventh day after the video was uploaded, the seventh video of "Liu Bayi's Boring Life" received 3 million views and topped the X station's hot list.

The name Liu Bayi immediately resounded throughout Station X and was born.

Also on this day, Liu Bayi's number of fans exceeded 500,000, and the number of fans of the director's quiz exceeded 200,000.

Only one hour after the eighth video was released, it received 700,000 views and more than 3,000 comments.

The Internet celebrity created by Cheng Yixin, Liu Bayi, has become completely popular.
