Chapter 96 Selection of new generation stars and guest star Zeng Li
In March 2009, the "Post-80s New Generation Entertainment Stars" event was officially launched by Penguin.com and hundreds of mainstream media in the industry, claiming that millions of people participated online and offline.
To put it bluntly, this activity is to select the new generation of [Four Xiaohuadan] + [Four big and small students].
In 2002, the Four Little Actresses were selected by Southern Metropolis Daily. They have achieved great success over the years and have become representatives of mainland entertainment actresses.
Later, the Four Little Students were created. Although they are not as popular as the Four Great Flowers, there are also Huang Xiaoming, Chen Kun, and Tong Dawei who are currently popular in the Mainland.
Due to the increase in age and seniority, the original four little dandies have been promoted to the four major dandies in the past two years.
The Xiaosheng iteration speed is too fast, some have been promoted to the front line, and some have become outdated.
If this is the case, then a new person may need to be promoted to take over.
In fact, basically since 2005, similar selections of female actors have been going on, but most of them are promoted by a single media or several media websites, and their influence is not particularly outstanding.
This time it was Penguin, which is currently the largest Internet traffic platform, with a huge momentum and many participating media. It is said that CCTV was also invited to participate in the report later.
Many fans and agencies are gearing up to push their idols and artists to the top.
This is not only an honor, but also a good exposure and gimmick, and the benefits are not small.
"Oh, there's also my name."
In the lounge of "My Love from the Star", Wei Yang was a little surprised to see his name on the newspaper's preliminary list.
"What's weird about that? You're already in a rage right now."
Fan Xiaopang, who was playing with his mobile phone next to him, came over to read the newspaper and smiled.
"Why don't you give it a try? Now that it's so popular, maybe you can judge one of the top four students."
"Pull me down, others don't understand me. Is this a matter of popularity?"
Wei Yang knew very well that his selection results and popularity were definitely important, but what was more important was his connections.
Except for a few that are not controversial, the rest of the competition is actually about which company behind it is more powerful.
Even if the organizer Penguin may be disturbed by these brokerage companies, what about the media it invited? Which brokerage company doesn't have some friends in the media circle.
As for what online netizens and offline people vote for, it is easier to operate. As long as he is willing to spend money, Wei Yang can challenge the four kings alone.
If Wei Yang remembers correctly, the original time and space judged the four young actors and actresses.
There is no doubt that there is only one Liu Tianxian in Hua Dan, behind Da Mi Mi is Rong Xinda, behind Wang Luo Dan is Hairun and Chang Lihong who is as famous as Wang Jinhua, behind Huang Sheng Yi is Yang Dashao.
Of course, these three also have real achievements, such as Wang's "Struggle", Da Mi Mi's Guo Xiang and "Wang Zhaojun", and Huang's "Kung Fu" and "The Match".
However, it is debatable whether this result can surpass other small flowers. It is still more or less based on the momentum.
As for the four junior and senior students, there are even more flaws.
Fortunately for Hu Ge, his popularity is here, and he has Tang people behind him, so he is basically the most stable among the four.
But Zhu Yuchen's being shortlisted is somewhat telling. Even if he has a Huazi from "Struggle", he still won't be able to overpower Wen Zhang, who is better developed.
But if you look at his company, you will understand, [Beijing Shiba Culture], the boss is none other than Wang Jinhua, who is known as the number one agent in the mainland, who just left Chengtian.
It is estimated that not many people have heard of the remaining two young students, Lin Shen and Zhang Junning.
One of them is Prince Rong Xinda, whose biological mother is Rong Xinda’s boss Li Xiaowan, and the other is from Haiyan and is about to switch to Huayi.
So once you peel away the details, many things will be very clear. It is selected by millions of people and reported by hundreds of media. It means that each company recommends new people.
If it were a genuine selection, except for Hu Ge and maybe Wei Yang, he would be a little worse, but the other three are still relatively confident.
Especially Lin and Zhang, let alone Wei Yang, even the popularity of Cui Peng from "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang" and "The Best of Us" can beat them.
But despite the connections and funds, Blue Whale is still too weak, and Wei Yang has no intention of humiliating himself.
"If you don't argue, your little girlfriend from China has no idea?"
"Friend, not girlfriend, don't talk nonsense, let reporters hear you again."
Wei Yang corrected him, causing Fan Xiaopang to roll his eyes, and then explained.
"It is estimated that the Tang Dynasty will participate, but it will be difficult. After all, she was famous for too short a time.
Different from the four young and old students who have too many numbers, the four small and beautiful girls still have some gold content.
If it were a year and a half later, when "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" would be released, the four little actresses would be shady without her, but now their background is still a little shallow.
"But there's no need to worry, it will happen sooner or later."
Fan Xiaopang clicked his tongue: "You have quite a lot of confidence in her."
"It's not that I have confidence in her, it's that I have confidence in myself. It's just a four-part actress, and she won the title after just two dramas."
This is also the key reason why Wei Yang is not interested in the so-called four major and minor students. Everyone's considerations are no longer on the same level.
For him, popularity and fame come second, and making money through company management comes first.
After working so hard and trying to win favors with a smile, he became a four-year-old boy with a limited role. If he had that time, he might as well have a drink with his sponsor to get some investment to start a new drama.
Once the company is done well and has abundant financial connections and connections, it will then be up to him to designate who will be the new four young students or four young ladies.
“Have courage!”
Fan Xiaopang gave a thumbs up. One thing she admired about Wei Yang was that the latter was very confident at times.
Wei Yang's self-confidence is not blind arrogance, but people truly believe that he has this confidence and confidence. Even her participation in "My Love from the Star" was partly influenced by Wei Yang's self-confidence.
She was not sure whether this play could become her masterpiece as Wei Yang said, but she was willing to give it a try with Wei Yang.
"Having said that, Four Young Boys is a good gimmick after all, and it is also helpful to our crew. Those companies are not all-powerful, and the voices of netizens and Penguin cannot be ignored.
Let's do this. I also know some media friends and can say hello to you. Even if it doesn't work this time, it won't hurt to interact with the media more."
"That's a good feeling."
Fan Xiaopang is willing to help, so Wei Yang will naturally not push it aside. As she said, it is better to become better than to be defeated, and it will be okay to give it a try.
"However, why do I sound a bit like a pretty boy who is trying to make ends meet with my elder sister?"
After Wei Yang thanked him, he thought about Fan Xiaopang's words and couldn't help but joke. The latter didn't look good.
"You still behave well when you get the advantage, but others who want to eat my sister's soft rice can't."
"No, I don't have good teeth, so I just like to eat soft food. I just get paid for nothing, and I feel really guilty. How about I pledge myself to you, otherwise I feel bad."
This level of stimulation was not enough to excite Fan Xiaopang, who looked Wei Yang up and down.
"Promise yourself to me? Can you do it?"
Wei Yang patted his chest: "We don't have any other abilities. We are just young and strong."
"Everyone can tell big words, so don't be afraid when the time comes."
"Whoever is a coward will have a grandchild."
"..."
The two of them were chatting and arguing here. There was a knock on the door and the actor coordinator came in: "Mr. Wei, Sister Bingbing, Teacher Zeng is here."
The coordinator turned sideways, and a woman with long hair flowing around her shoulders and a cold and heroic face came in from behind. She greeted Wei Yang and Fan Xiaopang with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Wei...I am Zeng Li."
"Teacher Zeng, welcome."
Zeng Li, one of the eight golden girls in the famous 96 star class of Chinese dramas, can also be regarded as a late bloomer in the industry. It was only after the age of 40 that she truly broke through and became popular. She even became a resident heroine of China Entertainment Culture for a time.
.
This is the first time Wei Yang has seen this person in real life. He has long heard that this person is not photogenic. Now that he looks at it, he is more beautiful in his normal state than in the video.
However, the face is indeed really long and the lines are rather hard, which is really not suitable for the big screen, and the acting path is quite narrow...
When Wei Yang first selected the heroine of "My Love from the Star", Zeng Li was also one of the candidates to be determined.
But right now, this person's reputation is really low. He only worked on family, emotional and ethical themes at one time, so he is only an alternative, and he is a late-stage candidate, basically out of the scope of Wei Yang's consideration.
However, after the heroine settled on Fan Xiaopang, Wei Yang did not forget her.
An invitation was sent to Zeng Li and Yan Danchen, another actress known for her looks, asking them to play one of the supporting roles with limited roles.
Yan Danchen declined due to scheduling conflicts, but Zeng Li chose to take the role after careful consideration.
And this role is also very simple. The setting is another big star Zeng Xi who competes with the heroine Fan Qianqian.
It turned out that the character in the script was named Li Xuexue, which clearly meant another Bingbing. Later, Wei Yang felt it was a bit unethical and gave up on the gimmick. Zeng Li just happened to take over the script and used her pseudonym.
This character doesn't have many roles, but it involves the main plot that spans the entire drama, and there are several scenes where he competes with the heroine.
This is why Wei Yang insisted on casting her and Yan Danchen.
Ordinary actresses can't handle the full-throated Fan Xiaopang and are directly crushed, so they have to find a beautiful woman to achieve an evenly matched effect.
Although Zeng Li's career is mediocre, he is not lacking in acting roles. If he is lucky, he can even be a heroine.
This time I was able to take on this small supporting role, which is almost a supporting role. Firstly, I think the crew of "My Love from the Star" is very popular. Secondly, I can compete with Fan Xiaopang for his flamboyant looks. It will also be a good marketing point in the follow-up. Thirdly, I want to make friends.
Some connections.
Wei Yang may not realize it himself, but he has become popular in the eyes of many people as he has written and produced three TV series in a row.
Those famous and popular first-line actors might give him some face, but they would not flatter him to please him.
But among middle- and lower-class actors, Boss Wei is already considered the number one figure, and he can focus on making friends and selling favors.
Although Zeng Li is not very career-minded, he does not have any ideas for advancement. If he really doesn't want to work hard, he would have quit being a husband and raising children long ago.
So after comprehensive consideration, Zeng Li chose to take on this small supporting role.
She originally thought that she was just making a cameo, and was knocked down after just brushing against Wei Yang, but she didn't expect that she really underestimated this big-player...
