I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 27 What a shit, I can do it too

Strictly speaking, the frequency of Xu Kong and Yu Yaqing's in-depth communication is not very high.

After all, the other party is the boss of a company and is very busy most of the time.

As a top star in the domestic entertainment industry, Xu Kong’s schedule is packed with announcements most of the time.

Xu Kong is very experienced with such frequencies.

It can be seen that Yu Yaqing is under a lot of pressure on a daily basis, otherwise she wouldn't reveal such subtle madness every time she looks for him.

This is to use it as a special decompression tool
Xu Kong was very familiar with it. He had come this way in his previous life.

It was just that he accidentally went a little too far, which ultimately led to the end of his career as a top star.

The influence of "Singer" is still continuing. After a few days of popularity, "So Many People in This World" has become even more popular.

The total number of comments on the song on the two major music platforms has exceeded 100,000.

With data like this, it is definitely a hot item.

Xu Kong, the composer of the song, also benefited a lot from it.

Putting aside the growth in fans and fame, the biggest gain is the change in public opinion.

In the past, when Xu Kong was mentioned, most passers-by and netizens were either making jokes or mocking him.

It can be said that apart from his fans, Xu Kong does not have a very good reputation among passers-by.

But now when Xu Kong is mentioned, many people have begun to think that he still has some ability. He was able to write "Best Friend" and "So Many People in This World", and his creative talent has been recognized by many ordinary netizens.

It is no longer the original classic evaluation: "Except for being handsome, he has no other advantages."

"Are you sure you pushed them all?"

"There are quite a few popular variety shows, and the appearance fees for some of the performances are outrageous."

Guo Zihao's plan is to take advantage of the popularity of this season's "Singer" and "So Many People in This World" and Xu Kong's reputation has also improved, so he will strike while the iron is hot and make his presence more felt.

Whether it is participating in variety shows or running around for various performance notices, these are the most correct plans.

But as the filming of the drama "Want to See You" was about to start, Xu Kong directly asked him to turn down all these invitations and announcements.

According to the scheduled shooting schedule, Xu Kong will have to disappear from the public eye for at least two to three months.

When it comes to some talented actors or singers, it actually doesn't have much impact.

For example, someone like Su Zhi can seclude herself for more than half a year to prepare for her new album.

But for a top idol like Xu Kong, it is not quite suitable.

Xu Kong was of course aware of this, and perhaps he was deliberately turning down some variety shows and exposure opportunities.

Although he is still a top star in this life, Xu Kong has already planned to change the way of development.

"I am now the director, screenwriter, and leading actor of the entire show, and I also have the title of chief producer."

"Where's the time?"

Xu Kong's answer made Guo Zihao at a loss as to how to refute it, and he could only mutter something in a low voice.

"Isn't this all what you asked for?"

Xu Kong chose Hangzhou as the specific filming location for "Want to See You", mainly because it is convenient enough.

Of course, Xu Kong still made some changes to some details of the whole drama.

It is impossible to copy it completely.

Especially since the previous version of this drama was a Taiwanese drama, it still needed some detailed localization processing.

Fortunately, these are not troublesome things.

This was his first time as a director in two lives, so he was inevitably a little nervous. Fortunately, he had been in various crews in his previous life, so he had a relatively clear understanding of some of the specific operating methods of the crew.

At the opening ceremony, because there was no advance publicity, not many media were present, and it was mainly the entire crew of the crew who attended.

There are also Song Youyou and several other young actors.

Apart from Song Youyou and Xu Kong, most of the other supporting characters in the entire drama are little-known fifth- and sixth-tier actors.

The second male lead is a new actor signed by Fengqing Entertainment some time ago.

Speaking of which, Fengqing Entertainment has made many preparations to enter the film and television industry, which has made things convenient for Xu Kong.

He found many people in the crew directly from the company.

"Mr. Xu Kong, I want to ask, in other words, you are the screenwriter, director, and male lead of this drama?"

The media present at this time were all invited by Guo Zihao in advance and had been given "travel expenses".

Xu Kong's original idea was just to have an opening ceremony, there was no need to make a big fuss about it.

But Guo Zihao said that some necessary publicity was still necessary, so Xu Kong agreed.

Before asking the question, the entertainment reporter had not expected that this was not only the first drama starred by Xu Kong, but that Xu Kong was also the director and screenwriter of the entire drama.

"Yes, after all, it's a story I came up with myself, and I still feel that only I can film it well."

"Of course, after all, whether it's being a director or an actor, it's my first attempt."

Xu Kong spoke these polite words off the cuff without having to prepare them in advance. This is one of the professional abilities that a top star should have.

But this time, the reporter who asked the question just now obviously had no intention of letting him go.

"You just said that you didn't have any experience. What made you think you could direct and act on your own?"

Translated, this actually means: "How dare you, a traffic star?"

At this time, Guo Zihao on the side had already frowned.

Obviously, for the reporters who received the red envelopes, these two issues were not within the scope of the previous discussion.

He was about to interrupt, but Xu Kong spoke calmly at this moment:

"There's no special reason, I just took the photos when I wanted to."

The reporter asked again: "How did you convince the agency to let you do this? Or where did you get the confidence to think you could be a director?"

He knew very well why the reporter asked these questions.

No doubt they were attracted by the topic of this top star planning to write, direct and act in his own film. Even if they received red envelopes, they still did not miss such headlines.

Logically speaking, this was not the first time Xu Kong had encountered such a situation, and he could resolve it easily.

Directly signal Guo Zihao to stop the questioning session, or use some more official rhetoric to get around it.

But for some reason, perhaps because he was tired of being asked, or perhaps because he felt that the way he had been dealing with things was too frustrating, he suddenly spoke:
"I know what you want to hear, but there's nothing you can't say."

"Some time ago, I watched a lot of urban dramas with love themes in recent years. After watching them, I couldn't help but curse, what kind of crap is this? I can do it too!"

“I thought I could take a better picture than them, so I took it!”

Xu Kong stared at the reporter who asked the question and asked:
"Are you satisfied with this answer?"

It is obvious that Xu Kong’s words just now, although they seem very relaxed, can only be summed up in one word, that is, "crazy".

But this is obviously what the media wants to see most.

The few invited reporters in the audience were stunned for a moment by Xu Kong's words, and then they started to get busy with surprise, as if they had found a treasure.

If nothing unexpected happens, this will be big news that will attract a lot of attention. Now it depends on who is faster and can grab the hot search headlines.
