Chapter 136 Official Announcement (3)
"Yeah. It's better for a popular celebrity to officially announce his relationship than for him to have a problem with his sexual orientation and be a canary kept by a sponsor. Although this kind of thing is quite common in the entertainment industry."
Lu Zichu asked, "So how do you want to operate?"
"Today, we will first find an entertainment celebrity to expose some information and warm up the topic. First, netizens will have preconceived ideas, so we need to seize the initiative. Second, it will divert Ning Wei's attention. Third, it will also hype up "Who Will Be the Master" and make the show popular before it airs."
"It can also increase the popularity and exposure of our Han Zhu. Although there is a possibility of being torn apart by Bai Lu's die-hard fans, this is a risky move. If it is properly controlled in the later stage, our company's profits will also be very optimistic."
"So Mr. Lu agrees?"
"But what I don't understand is that there are so many young actresses in your company. If you really want to save Bai Lu's reputation, there is no need to look for our Han Zhu."
"Zhuoer Entertainment has a total of nine female artists above the third tier. Five of them are not popular at all. They are really tied together. The suspicion of hype is too great, and people can see through it at a glance.
“There are two people who are both first-rate in terms of popularity and traffic, but they are both full of scandals. If they do something like this, their popularity among passers-by will be ruined, and even their die-hard fans will be lost. We don’t dare to take this risk.
"The remaining two are Gu Fei'er and Zhao Xiaotang. Do you think they are suitable?"
Lu Zichu asked tentatively, "Gu Fei'er is already married, but Zhao Xiaotang is still single. Let her and Bai Lu——"
"Bai Lu doesn't want to."
"why?"
"Although he has a relationship with Zhuo Bufan, his outward image has always been positive and sunny. The only thing he can be interested in is a female artist without any black material, and what he wants is a relationship blessed by fans.
"And our company is looking forward to a long-term partnership, so the contractual status of the two people will probably take two to three years."
"So long? I'm afraid I won't be able to explain this to Han Zhu."
"There is a resource exchange. In the second half of the year, our company will co-produce a female-led ancient costume drama with Nanyi Film and Television. We can recommend her as the leading actress with a salary of 45 million. In addition, there will be two magazine covers and a global ambassador for a high-end luxury brand."
"Do you think Miss Gu is short of money?"
"So it's up to you. We'll arrange the press release tonight, and we'll warm up tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. If nothing unexpected happens the day after tomorrow, we'll officially announce the relationship."
Fei Mingze said this as he handed Lu Zichu's cell phone to him, motioning for him to call Gu Hanzhu.
Lu Zichu fought and Gu Hanzhu died.
This is unprecedented.
Lu Zichu hit another one, and Gu Hanzhu died again.
Lu Zichu was puzzled. What's wrong with this girl? Did he offend her in any way? No, right?
So I sent her a voice message on WeChat, "Honey, what's wrong? You hung up on me during Chinese New Year. Are you afraid that I'll ask you for a red envelope?"
Taking this opportunity, Lu Zichu thought of Ning Wei and called her as well.
"Hey?"
"Where's Darling?"
"At my hometown."
Ning Wei's voice on the other end was slightly panting and her breathing was heavy.
Lu Zichu urged, "I think I should call you later."
Ning Wei understood what he meant in a second and said angrily, "Don't give me that. I'm exercising on the treadmill, it's not what you think."
Lu Zichu laughed dryly and began to talk about something else, "Um, have you read the news on the Internet?"
"Are you here to comfort me? That's not necessary. I knew what I was going to face on my first day."
"By the way, why don't you turn off the comments on your Weibo? It's so depressing to see."
"This is just the beginning. In the past, some haters even photoshopped my posthumous photo."
"So lawless? This involves personal attacks."
"As long as it doesn't involve my family, I don't care. Haters are also fans, they are very paranoid and won't listen to advice. Don't pay attention to them, it's not worth it."
Lu Zichu didn't have the same positive attitude as her, "I really don't know where you get such an optimistic attitude from."
"It's not a big deal. This kind of unspoken rules and internal appointments are already common in this circle. Which artist can become famous without a sponsor behind him? Which actor dares to say that he has no backing?
"So fans and passers-by are also commonplace. After all, what they care about is not whether there are people supporting you or whether there are people giving you the green light."
Lu Zichu asked, "What is that?"
"It's about whether you can really stand up from this mess. Someone can be your mentor, appreciate you, and support you. But there is a prerequisite: you must have strong professional qualities, live up to everyone's expectations, and fight your way out of the siege. Be worthy of the green light given to you.
"What society lacks is not a good horse, but a good horse trainer." Ning Wei changed the subject, "Don't worry, I won't affect the filming of "Who's in Charge?"
"I'm not worried about "Who's the One?" I'm worried about you."
When he said this, Fei Mingze looked up at him. Lu Zichu was dissatisfied with his look, so he stood up and went outside to continue talking.
"You're worried about me, but you can't say it. Just treat me to a nice meal when you get back."
"When will you return to Beijing?"
"Tomorrow morning. Tang Nian didn't leave for the New Year, and I'm a little worried about this little girl."
"You're not going back during the Chinese New Year?"
"She left home out of spite, to have a fight with her parents, and to make trouble. Oh, I really envy these little girls."
"How old are you?"
"I'm already 27, an old woman approaching 30."
"How old? I'll give you a set of liquid gold tomorrow. Take good care of it and prove your strength in "Who's the Master" so that those haters will have nothing to say."
At this time, Gu Hanzhu called, and Lu Zichu had to end the call with a few words.
Gu Hanzhu was in a bad mood and spoke with a strong nasal voice, "Hi, luck——"
"What's wrong? Are you sick?"
"It would be nice if I were sick."
Lu Zichu asked tentatively, "Did that little bastard Jiang Tunan make our Miss Gu angry? I'll beat him up for you!"
Gu Hanzhu forced a smile, "No. It's not him—"
Lu Zichu wanted to ask more, but seeing that Gu Hanzhu didn't want to talk much, he didn't want to say anything more. While he was still hesitating about how to start, Gu Hanzhu asked.
"By the way, why are you calling me suddenly at this time? Is there something wrong?"
"Yeah... sort of."
"What do you say."
"The company has adjusted your development positioning and is planning to create a CP with a top male celebrity. What do you think?"
Gu Hanzhu paused and said, "You have to deal with our lawyer Jiang first."
Lu Zichu knew that she meant to agree, so he breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, I'll go back to the capital tomorrow afternoon, let's get together at my house tonight. I'll introduce you to two new friends. Don't you always say that no one goes shopping with you, no one goes to the spa with you, and no one listens to your complaints?"
"It's all fake sisterhood, very boring. I'm too lazy to attend those socialite gatherings, either they show off their wealth or they scheme against each other. I can film a TV series called The Realm of Conscience after seeing them once."
"This time the friends are different, you'll know when you meet them."
"Well, since you are so confident, I will look forward to it a little."
"Okay then. We'll discuss the details tomorrow night."
Lu Zichu hung up the phone with Gu Hanzhu and went back to talk about the matter with Fei Mingze.
Zhuoer Entertainment was indeed very efficient, or perhaps Zhuo Bufan was forced into a corner by Xu Zaixing. Half an hour after the plane landed, he saw the exclusive news from an entertainment weekly magazine. Several marketing accounts on Weibo also reposted the news and contributed their own little bit of strength.
The two returned to the hotel and stayed overnight. When they woke up the next day, the message had been forwarded over 8 million times and discussed over 2 million times, becoming the second most searched topic on the Internet.
