I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 166 Weibo Night (33)

Why is Huachenyu’s reputation so polarized?

Apart from his fans, passers-by hardly listen to his singing…

But to be fair, he is at least much better than those traffic stars.

Why is it annoying?

The reason is simple: the publicity team's marketing model was wrong.

If you promote it honestly, as an outstanding young singer, an outstanding musician... the controversy would definitely not be as big as it is now.

You praise him as the king of pop and the number one figure in the Chinese music scene every day, aren't you asking for trouble?

Given Wang Feng's level and status, he has been criticized for several years for the phrase "Wang Feng controls half of the Chinese music scene", and the joke about "Wang Feng controls half of the Chinese music scene" has been circulating for a long time.

To be fair, can Hua Chenyu compare to Wang Feng?
Wang Feng has achieved what he has today after going through the test of the big market.

What is a big market? It is a market facing the entire society.

It is not easy to be recognized by the big market, so it takes longer.

Hua Chenyu is different, he has also been recognized by the market, but this market is his fan circle!
Fan circle...

Strength is not the only way to get ahead. Often a likable personality is more effective than strength.

Once a certain number of fans are gathered, the work will naturally have a market.

Because in the fans' perception, idols' works are high-quality and worth spending money to buy.

But in the eyes of the public, there is no work...

Of course, from a marketing perspective, it is a success!
If a gimmick is successful, you can make a lot of money; if a gimmick fails and creates controversy, you may make even more!
Ahem...

But now you want to drag down Shen Liang?

Shen Liang was really confused: "He said he was crazy. Even Master Wang Cong didn't dare to mess with me... So brave? Doesn't he know I know martial arts?"

"His team always does this..."

Shen Liang frowned: "What does the company say?"

"I haven't reported it to the company yet..." Chen Jiadong continued, "I want to teach him a lesson first..."

"What lesson?"

"His uncle's matter, buying some press releases... and some unclear things with his fans..."

Shen Liang was speechless: "What kind of lesson is this? At most, it's just a superficial injury..."

“…That’s enough!”

Shen Liang thought for a moment and whispered, "Ask someone to check. I heard he has a child..."

"Ah? Where did you hear that?"

"Then don't worry about it. The child's mother seems to be Zhang Bichen..."

Chen Jiadong was excited: "Really? They are related? No way!"

Shen Liang was stunned for a moment: "I heard about it too, please don't spread it..."

"Tsk tsk, he already has a child, but he still pretends to be innocent... No wonder you look down on him!"

"…Investigate first and get the evidence first," Shen Liang paused and added, "I don't think his team would be so stubborn as to provoke me!"

……

Weibo Night, a comprehensive honor ceremony hosted by Sina in mainland China...

In fact, each major platform has its own annual awards ceremony. iQiyi has Scream Night, Tencent has Starlight Awards, and Youku has...Youku Festival.

Shen Liang did not participate in any of these activities.

On the one hand, I really don’t have the time, and on the other hand, there’s no award, so there’s no point in just performing!

It’s understandable. After all, these three are long video platforms that are known for their content, and Shen Liang doesn’t have a single work…

Weibo Night...

We agreed to give an award to Weibo for the new music force of the year...

By the way, I performed a song. Weibo wanted Shen Liang to sing "Seaweed Dance", but Shen Liang wanted to sing "Flowers Along the Way", so I just neutralized it and sang "Bo Hu Shuo"...

After Shen Liang arrived at BJ, he went straight to find Mao Buyi - Mao Buyi, like him, was a winner of the New Power of Music Award, but the difference was that Mao Buyi was going to sing "Xiaochou" on the spot...

Seeing Shen Liang, Mao Buyi complained directly: "It's "Xiaochou" again, it feels like I don't have any other songs..." "If you don't want to sing, you can tell them..."

“…My agent agreed!”

“…Didn’t your agent discuss this with you?”

"She...has reduced my schedule..." At this point, Mao Buyi looked at Shen Liang: "I really envy you!"

"What's wrong with me?"

"On the surface, he seems quite easy-going, but in reality, he is quite strong-willed and never compromises. He basically has the final say over his own career."

Shen Liang shrugged: "...That's because I can take the risk of making the wrong choice. If you insist that your choice is right, you can also refuse it firmly!"

“…No matter which one you choose, you’re still working to earn money, it doesn’t matter!”

"Since you think so, just accept it." Shen Liang checked the time and said, "How about I treat you to some Beijing specialties?"

"Bean juice?"

Shen Liang nodded, his expression very sincere: "Yes, soy milk + braised pork + tripe! When outsiders come to BJ, I usually order these three items, the taste is so authentic!"

"Is it authentic?"

"I tell you it's absolutely authentic. You can't get such authentic BJ flavor anywhere else!"

Mao Buyi smacked his lips and said with a bit of regret: "... Not enough time, we have to enter at around six o'clock... maybe next time."

Shen Liang looked around...

It was indeed not suitable. The few stores that he knew of that specialized in three-piece suits were a bit far from here. Even if he took a taxi back and forth, he would still be late...

that's too regretful!

I could only take him to the nearby Huguo Temple and have some snacks.

Weibo Night was held at the Water Cube...

……

There is a saying that goes: If you don’t participate in activities, you don’t know how small your status is!

On Mango TV’s New Year’s Eve show, Shen Liang was at least in the C position on the artist posters. But when it came to Weibo Night, there were many people on the posters, and Shen Liang simply stood in the third row, not even in the C position…

The C position is Wu Yifan!
Uh, I was 23 that year, standing like a minion...

In addition, the C position in the first row is Li Yuchun, Yang Mi is on the right, and Zhao Liying is on the left...

Li Yuchun has always been the center or the finale...

No one can help...

That's right, her team only accepts posters with the center position - for example, in the 2021 818 Gala, when the Tokyo Olympics had just ended, it was the time when the athletes were most popular. The original poster's main center was Xu Xin, and the secondary center was Sun Yiwen, both of whom are Olympic champions.

But soon after, this poster was replaced, and Li Yuchun became the center...

Abilities and background?
Neither, it’s simply a team negotiation.

They really care about their ranking and position, more than the performance of their works.

In the original time and space, Shen Liang asked a friend out of curiosity. His friend was in charge of the event and was an insider.

'There are obviously people with higher status, why is she in the center? '

Answer: This is the request of the artist team!

Then he asked, "Is it because there is no demand that others are not in C?"

Answer: Yes, there are very few artists who insist that I must be in the C position no matter what. It’s just a poster, most people don’t care.

Moreover, she would not participate in any activities that were not the center position, and she would even reduce or even not pay the appearance fee in order to get the center position...

I care so much!
However, at the scene, it felt like everyone was unfamiliar with her...

Oh, Shen Liang was sitting in the third row, chatting animatedly with Mao Buyi and Xue Zhiqian...

"I thought you weren't coming!"

"How can I not come? This is Weibo, and I'm not some superstar..."

Xue Zhiqian suddenly pointed at Zhao Liying in the front row and said, "Aren't you filming with Zhao Liying?"

"…but she and I are just acquaintances!"
