Chapter 40 Scandal hype, Wei Yang’s first headline
"dedicated."
"Hello, Geng Geng, please sign your name for me."
"Oh, I really like Geng Geng. You must choose Xinghe. Yu Huai is unreliable."
"No, Yu Huai is the best."
"..."
After a drama performance ended, Yang Rong was surrounded by a group of girls asking for autographs and photos.
This is not the first time she has faced this kind of situation. Someone had done this before during the pilot of "The Best of Us", but at that time there were only two or three at most.
But when "The Best of Us" became a star, the ratings skyrocketed and its influence grew, and more and more people came to her for autographs.
On average, there must be at least ten people in a single session, and some of them would send her flowers and gifts, which made her a big hit in the workplace.
Yang Rong's agent is keenly aware of the hidden popularity and enthusiasm between these two characters. If it is discovered, it will bring a wave of exposure to Wei Yang and Yang Rong.
The latter was still struggling with whether Wei Yang's choice was correct, while manager Yang Rong felt a little guilty.
"That's right. Sister Rong and I have a very good relationship."
Yang Rong often needs her agent to help her contact her work and crew, so her right to speak is inevitably lower.
Geng Geng and Lu Xinghe have also become a source of frustration for many people!
Many drama fans also signed a petition on Wei Yang's blog, demanding that the novel version be changed to "Lu Xinghe ascends to the throne".
After saying goodbye to her fans in a good voice, Yang Rong just returned backstage and was dragged away by her manager before she could take off her makeup and change clothes.
"Sing it once and let me listen to it. Can you remember the words?"
Yang Rong's agent was very sincere, fearing that this person would give up the job again. It was not unprecedented before. Yang Rong had a lazy temperament. Apart from filming, he rarely took on other jobs. He always liked to stay at home or travel.
…
"Can you sing the theme song?"
The manager smiled and didn't say much in front of the stylist. After leaving the styling studio and heading to the commercial show, she deliberately pulled Yang Rong into Wei Yang's car and started talking again.
"Sister Rong, I think this is an opportunity. What do you think?"
Yang Rong even took the initiative to come up with an idea: "Don't I still owe you a meal? I'll treat you in two days, and then find a paparazzi to take pictures - "Lu Xinghe, Geng Geng had a late-night dinner, suspected of falling in love because of drama
》.”
"You want me to stir up a scandal with Sister Rong?"
Wei Yang did not respond, but looked at the co-pilot's manager Lei Chun, who understood what he meant and expressed it straightforwardly.
The two of them chatted animatedly, but manager Yang Rong and Lei Chun couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.
The stylist did their hair and makeup, and then chose clothes, while Wei Yang and Yang Rong hurriedly exchanged lyrics.
"It's done."
The two were chatting and making trouble, and also discussed the details of the meal, such as whether they should share a dish with each other or feed them a cake.
After hearing Xian Zhiya's intention, Wei Yang immediately guessed the purpose of Yang Rong's agent.
"I don't have a problem. It's a win-win cooperation."
Wei Yang complained: "It seems like this is not the first time."
Manager Yang Rong emphasized something, and Wei Yang raised his eyebrows. There was something in this sentence.
Both the commercial exchange and the platform are easy to talk about, but the performance is a bit difficult, mainly because two people have to do it together, which tests their tacit understanding.
"I know, I didn't say not to go."
"No problem, we can make an inscription board then."
The agent took Yang Rong to a familiar styling studio, and not long after, Wei Yang and Lei Chun also rushed over.
Yang Rong is Buddhist and lazy, but that doesn't mean she's stupid. She would find some pointless interviews and exposure troublesome, but paid business cooperation is another matter.
Yang Rong's manager looked at her artist nervously. She knew Yang Rong, and the other party was quite disgusted with similar arrangements and thought they were all crooked.
"Is there a response over there?"
He knows his own family affairs, so he is not a good man who is single-minded and infatuated. Now there is a Zhao Liying hiding in the family. If he takes this route, he will eventually overturn.
But as an artist, you can't just focus on filming, you still need to add more monetization channels. For this reason, the agent often had conflicts with Yang Rong.
Wei Yang fell into deep thought after hearing this. Both options have their own pros and cons.
"Teacher Wei, I have been observing the news on the Internet these days. Geng Geng and Lu Xinghe are quite popular, and there are many people who like them at the same time. Do you think we can do something about it?"
"Well enough."
At this moment, I don’t know how many Lu Xinghe and Geng Geng CP fans are rejoicing, and how many Geng Geng Yu Huai Party members are mourning for their heirs.
What is particularly worth mentioning is that after the two arrived at the parking lot of Yang Rong's community, they stayed in the car together for about 5 minutes before Yang Rong got out of the car and left.
"What a rare opportunity. So many viewers are very sad that Lu Xinghe and Geng Geng are not together. If it is revealed that the two actors are together at this time, the popularity will not be as high as usual."
But this time is really rare. If she seizes this opportunity and uses a wave of hype and marketing, she can at least double Yang Rong's fame and worth.
The two rehearsed once while doing the styling, and the effect was pretty good. This kind of commercial activity is not a formal performance. As long as there are no mistakes, there will be no problem.
The main reason is that Wei Yang has the network resources and does not rely on the agent to make a living. The agent is mainly responsible for supporting.
"We, Yang Rong, are famous this time, thanks to you, Teacher Wei. We will see each other often in the future."
Today is the annual celebration of a real estate company in Jihuo, a city in Shanghai. The two of them have a platform + business promotion + performance.
Yang Rong's manager breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Wei Yang with a smile.
"Definitely. I'm not stupid. I say don't push it this time. Take advantage of the rare opportunity to become famous and make some money."
What does she think of this posture? The two of them are not very innocent and just want to spread scandals...
"The event we just won is worth 50,000 yuan per event. It is specified that you and Wei Yang will appear together."
It is said that the proprietress loves watching "The Best of Us" and is a die-hard Galaxy fan, so she invited them to share the screen.
Soon, Wei Yang made a decision in his mind, but he could not make the decision alone. He needed Yang Rong's cooperation.
"There are pros and cons to this matter. The good thing is that you will get a lot of exposure immediately and gain a wave of CP fans of Geng Geng and Lu Xinghe. The bad thing is that the scandal will have an impact on your image positioning. It depends on whether you choose to follow the idol single route.
.”
The difference is that Wei Yang is more like a boss, paying Lei Chun wages and benefit sharing, while Yang Rong prefers to be affiliated, and the agent side is stronger.
"Maybe it can be better."
"..."
But if he was asked to choose, Wei Yang didn't like to set up a too beautiful and pure persona for himself.
Yang Rong and Wei Yang are actually a bit similar. Both of them are considered agents. They did not sign a contract with a brokerage company, but hired an independent broker.
A few days ago, "The Best of Us" just ended its broadcast on Shanghai TV.
The average ratings of the whole drama exceeded 1.5, with the highest rating of 4.1 for a single episode. It has been ranked among the top two for a long time during the same period, and reached the top spot in the finale. It can be called one of the most popular TV series in the beginning of 2008.
Fortunately, Yang Rong had practiced the theme song before when she was promoting. Wei Yang and she finalized a song called "The Best of Us" and then came last year's Noon High School song "If You Become the Wind". Yang Rong was not very good at singing the latter.
But if you remember the tune clearly, you can hum along.
Two days later, a paparazzi photographed Wei Yang and Yang Rong eating together at a restaurant in Shanghai.
The paparazzi reported the news exclusively to Sina, and the new little girl was suspected of being in love, which immediately made the front page headlines.
As the person involved, Wei Yang happily took a screenshot of the front page headline, saved his first headline, and then got up and went to the bedroom to coax the jealous Xiao Zhao.
"Okay, Sister Rong is an expert."
During this period, the two of them laughed and talked and behaved very close to each other. After the meal, Wei Yang personally drove Yang Rong home.
Wei Yang praised him, and Yang Rong felt a little proud: "I've never eaten pork and never seen a pig run away. This time I'm giving you an advantage. This is the first time I've had a scandal with someone."
The manager was thinking hard about how to persuade Yang Rong. Unexpectedly, Yang Rong had no objection at all, so he happily nodded in agreement.
"I didn't do anything, I just provided fodder for the paparazzi."
"Really, it's not like you don't know me. Five minutes of warming up is not enough."
"The oath of turning your name upside down is too harsh. You will be the one to suffer the consequences."
