Chinese entertainment started with male models

Chapter 483 You've come to the right people!

When it comes to the film and television portrayal of Yang Jian, most people will probably think of one actor.

I am Jiao Enjun.

The image of Yang Jian portrayed by this actor in the 05 TV series "Lotus Lantern" almost made everyone think that Yang Jian should look like this!
Back then, he was a typical second male lead who overshadowed the male lead. As time went by, many people almost thought that Jiao Enjun's Yang Jian was the male lead.

It can be said that every film and television character who plays Yang Jian after him will be compared to him.

From this perspective, it's the father who really hurts his son!
Fortunately, it's just a game. Bai Liang quite enjoys playing the big boss and even suggested that they increase the difficulty of Yang Jian's character, the higher the better!

When the time comes, this character, with his face on it, will beat all the players senseless and make them talk nonsense.
Just imagining this scene makes me happy!
Thinking of this, Bai Liang became quite enthusiastic about this task, which he hadn't been very interested in before.

Before Bai Liang brought Li Yitong and Xiao Tian over, Li Xin and Sister Meng had already arrived earlier.

This made the evil little cat somewhat unhappy. It had a lot of opinions about these people who jumped the gun, and couldn't help but complain, "Did they pick all the good roles?"

"A good role? You really think this is acting? The one I'm the face model for, I'm going to get beaten up by a bunch of players later~"

"Aren't we going to get beaten up?" Li Yitong asked curiously.

"I don't think it's that bad. There aren't that many beautiful female bosses who would hire you to be their face models."

If nothing unexpected happens, the main face models for the girls will be the Spider Demon family, with others including Venus, Princess Iron Fan, and fox spirits.

Li Xin seems to have landed the role of Princess Iron Fan, and she even secretly complained to Bai Liang about it, saying that the people from Youke kept telling her to make her expression more bitter. She clearly realized that this role probably wouldn't have a good ending, and would be quite tragic.

Both Sister Meng and Chen Yao are spider demons, and Sister Meng has a fourth sister.

Sister Meng wasn't satisfied yet, saying she wanted to be a vixen. She's probably gotten carried away playing the role of a courtesan.

She also said that the people from Youke wouldn't let her laugh.
Overall, however, they still found the experience of being face models quite novel.

Xiangshan Art Commune, an art and innovation town in Xihu District.

As one of the characteristic towns in Zhejiang Province, it has gathered cultural and creative enterprises such as Light Chaser Animation, Youke Interactive, Yigao Culture, Himalaya, and Time Coordinates, attracting a large number of leading figures in the cultural industry to settle in.

Entering the Xiangshan Art Commune, after turning a few slopes, you will see a cluster of light-colored buildings.

Youke Interactive Technology Co., Ltd. is located here.

Upon approaching, there was no obvious company name or road sign; the most eye-catching thing was the grove of bamboo in front of the window.

A middle-aged man in a gray T-shirt and blue jeans, dressed in typical IT attire, was standing there waiting for someone.
Bai Liang's eyes lit up as he recognized the other person as Feng Ji, the founder of Youke and the producer of "Black Myth: Wukong".

Before he could even say hello, Li Yitong quickly straightened her clothes, then put on a big smile, her eyes turning into big crescents, and said warmly, "Hello, Uncle! I'm Li Yitong! You can just call me Tongtong."

Feng Ji: ? ? ?
His first reaction was to reach out and touch his hairline, feeling somewhat miserable.

He had, of course, researched the celebrities who offered him freebies beforehand.

If I remember correctly, this Li Yitong was born in 90.

Damn it, he was born in 82, so he's only eight years older than the other person.

The word "uncle" completely baffled him. He wondered if he had become so haggard from being hurt by the game.

Fortunately, Bai Liang couldn't hold back any longer and quickly explained, "This is not my father, this is Mr. Feng, the founder of Youke."

"Oh?! I'm sorry~"

Li Yitong was extremely embarrassed. She was too hasty. Upon seeing a middle-aged man, her first reaction was to assume he was Bai Liang's father.

"President Bai is fishing by the river in the garden next door right now. He should be back in a little while," Feng Ji added.

"Hello, Mr. Feng~" Li Yitong greeted him again, blushing.

Xiao Tian, ​​who was standing next to him, followed along.

"Going fishing again? Does he even catch any fish?" Bai Liang rubbed his chin, quite aware of his father's fishing skills.

To be precise, it's not necessarily due to skill level. After all, I've been fishing for so many years, and my technique and skill level must have improved by now.

But he just couldn't catch any.

No matter how expensive the fishing gear or bait you buy.

"Haha, I've never caught one. My nickname is Air Force One." Feng Ji couldn't help but say this when the topic came up.

"That's it! It's definitely him!"

However, at this moment, Feng Ji suddenly wanted to add something, but a voice came from behind him.

"Er smash!"

Bai Liang's father finally appeared, a refined middle-aged man. Although he was getting on in years, it was clear that he was a handsome man when he was young.

He was carrying fishing gear and a fish basket, a smug look on his face.

"what?"

Bai Liang looked at his heavy fish basket and thought to himself that the sun must have risen in the west.

"Hello, Uncle! I'm Li Yitong, you can just call me Tongtong." Li Yitong immediately launched into a second round of greetings, seemingly forgetting the slight embarrassment from just now.

"I'm Xiaotian~"

Hello, hello.

Although Bai Liang's father had expected it, the fact that he brought two girls with him still surprised him slightly.

Has your son become this arrogant?

But that's not important; what's important is...
"You're in for a treat today, big bluefish! I'll have the cafeteria make it."

"I bought it at the market, right?" Bai Liang said calmly.

"Bullshit! How could that be!"

"Look, they're getting anxious!"

Feng Ji couldn't help but say, "President Bai, that's impressive. You've caught fish several times in a row lately."

"Good luck, good luck~"

Bai Liang understood now!
Goodness, if nothing unexpected happens, every time my dad "caught a fish," it's when a girl comes to be his face model.
Li Yitong obviously understood; her uncle had prepared this especially for her!

These ladies are really tight-lipped these days! Not a single word has been uttered in the group chat!
The group has changed a bit now; people no longer talk about anything, and everyone treats each other like thieves.

But at this moment, Bai Liang discovered another "blind spot".

"You call my mom 'sister' and my dad 'uncle'?"

Li Yitong glanced at it furtively, her expression like that of a haughty little cat: "Hmph~ It's none of your business~"

"Then what do you call me?"

"If I call you 'husband,' would you dare to answer?"

When Li Yitong said this, Bai Liang almost thought she was holding a purple-gold gourd.
But that's about right. If he actually agreed, he might really be "taken in."

That fits the theme of this project quite well.

Unfortunately, she was very arrogant when she said those words, but she immediately quickened her pace and ran away without giving Bai Liang a chance to agree.

Xiao Tian glanced at Tongtong's retreating figure, then at Bai Liang, whose face showed no sign of distress, and fell into deep thought.

Something seems off.
But before she could think further, Bai Liang called out to her, "Little Watermelon~"

"Have!"

"Let's go~ off to choose roles."

"Okay~"

Shaking her head, Xiaotian stopped thinking about it. These things were still too complicated for her to understand at the moment.

She ate the cookie Bai Liang fed her and then happily followed him.

When other girls come to Youke, they seem to be quite popular, after all, these tech geeks also like to see beautiful women.

This trip was no exception. Compared to Li Xin, Sister Meng, and Chen Yao from before, Li Yitong and Xiao Tian were more popular this time.

Because they have a cute appearance.

It makes them seem closer.

Unlike Li Xin, who is somewhat aloof, Meng Jie is stunningly beautiful, and Chen Yao is intellectual.
The cute style has a natural advantage in making people feel closer to you.

As for Bai Liang and his group of tech geeks, although most of them don't follow celebrities, they don't dislike him either.

On the one hand, I know this guy's father is an investor; on the other hand, he's not the kind of male celebrity who's all looks and no brains.

After all, they're tech geeks; they were all college students before.

For example, some interns at Youke, or even tech geeks who haven't gone bald yet, are fans of Bai Liang, and they've probably all checked in on his Weibo.

This is the sense of recognition that comes from taking the postgraduate entrance exam seriously and even getting the top score in the preliminary exam for Peking University. Given the certain level of disdain shown towards those with higher education or knowledge, they won't have the typical "celebrity filter" for Bai Liang—specifically, the negative kind.

"Since we're already here, why don't I do some door-to-door visits?" Bai Liang suddenly suggested to Feng Ji.

"Going door-to-door? What's that?" Feng Ji asked, somewhat confused.

"It's just a promotional event for a drama series by celebrities, like advertising."

Going door-to-door to make announcements is a relatively new type of notice.

Compared to traditional announcements, door-to-door visits bring celebrities closer to passersby and, since there's no script, make them appear more "approachable."

Moreover, they usually use live streaming.

It was initially created out of the needs of businesses.

Chinese internet companies are labor-intensive enterprises, with a large number of employees working in the same location at the same time.

Therefore, in order to build corporate culture and soothe employee emotions, these companies regularly invite celebrities to meet with everyone, distribute gifts to employees, and interact with them.

In order to invite celebrities to visit Sina's offices, internet companies usually provide corresponding resources for event promotion. Some netizens on Douban joked that celebrities visiting Sina's offices are "wanting to get on the trending topics without spending money."

At the same time, since there are usually a lot of onlookers at the door-to-door promotion, the employees' spontaneous promotion can also achieve a certain promotional effect.

When Rocket Girls visited Sina's office building, the crowd was so huge that it was said "the building was shaking."

In addition, the main platforms for door-to-door promotion are concentrated in public opinion fields such as WeChat Moments, Weibo, and Douyin, where on-site information can be quickly synchronized to fan groups, making it more timely than other announcements.

Feng Ji: Huh? There's such a good thing?!
He was trying to figure out how to smoothly publicize the fact that Bai Liang and the girls were acting as face models for game characters. He could just ask his media friends to release a press release, but it felt too abrupt.

Bai Liang's approach is very thoughtful.

Essentially, it was to promote his recent TV series, but it also served as a form of publicity for "Black Myth".

Although this game is still a long way from being released, it's always good to leave some impression.

Besides, it's one thing for female celebrities to be face models, but it's quite another for Bai Liang to be a face model!

The last time he "did something outside his main job" by dubbing "Ne Zha," he directly achieved an extremely exaggerated box office success in the field of animated films.

Feng Ji said he also wanted to share in the joy.

This is much more important than simply borrowing Bai Liang's fame, or his handsome face!

"To share in the festive spirit?" Bai Liang asked Feng Ji curiously as he contacted someone to take photos. "Mr. Feng, you game developers actually believe in this kind of thing?"

"Of course we have to believe that." Feng Ji said seriously. "Do you know about those robot or smart car competitions that many universities participate in?"

"I haven't seen this before. Is there anything special about it?"

“Yes! The most exciting part of these competitions is the live kowtowing, seeing who kowtows most sincerely and the fastest,” Feng Ji couldn’t help but laugh.

If the code doesn't make a difference, then let's settle it by bowing down!
Check out Machine Soul Joy!
Bai Liang: I've certainly learned something new! I'll have to see how modern college students kowtow sometime~
The filming crew needed for the building tour will take a little longer to arrive, and Yanzi has already arranged for them to be seconded from Hangzhou.

Thank goodness it's Hangzhou. If this were somewhere with a less developed media industry, it would probably take a very long time to find someone to go there.

They also notified Douyin to prevent a repeat of the previous incident where they were forced offline due to too many people in the live stream later.

"I've made my choice! I am King Venus!"

At this moment, Li Yitong excitedly approached Bai Liang, indicating that she had been cast as the face model.

"What about Xiaotian?"

When Oda heard this question, he scratched his head and then gave everyone present a big laugh.

"Does the Celestial Hound have a human form?"

What the hell? !

Upon hearing this, Bai Liang felt his head buzzing.

Li Yitong's expression changed, she hesitated to speak, and her gaze towards Bai Liang gradually gained a dangerous glint.

As for Bai Liang's father and Feng Ji, they didn't think too much about it, but they felt that this girl's taste was quite unique.

Unfortunately, they have no intention of giving Xiaotianquan a female character.

After all, this isn't some kind of anime game. Maybe one day miHoYo next door will want to take over the Journey to the West IP, and they might do the same thing.

Fortunately, it was just a sudden thought from Xiaotian, and he only mentioned it briefly.

In the end, they chose the fifth sister to be the face model for the spider demon family.

In the end, he didn't act as Bai Liang's little dog in "Black Myth: Wukong".
However, Li Yitong felt that she would have to give Xiaotian a little political education later. It was obvious that the girl's thinking was definitely problematic!

Must hit hard!
Otherwise, what will happen if things continue like this?
Even if someone has to be the one, it should be her. What kind of nonsense is it to give it to a male fox?
Bai Liang: What does it taste like? Sour?
When the film crew arrived, he started working as a face model first.

The entire production team of "Black Myth: Wukong" attaches great importance to Yang Jian, a particularly important boss character.

How should I put it? It felt similar to when Bai Liang went to Jiaozi to do voice acting.

Oh right, since he's already here, he might as well do the voice acting too, since he's done voice acting before.

Moreover, it is only natural for a father to order his son around.

The main job of a face model is to create expressions, but their product manager gave Bai Liang some additional requirements: could he convey a sense of divinity through his eyes and expressions?

Bai Liang: Although your demands are quite excessive, you've come to the right place!

When Dilraba received Bai Liang's video call, she had just finished recording a new episode of "Escape Room" with Yang Mi and was sitting on a minibus.

So when Bai Liang called her first video, she hung up immediately and replied, "I'm on a show, there are cameras pointing at me."

It wasn't that she couldn't video chat with Bai Liang on the show; she mainly wanted to use this method to remind Bai Liang: if he wasn't wearing clothes, he should put them on quickly, and he should be careful what he said.

So when the second video call came in, Dilraba didn't hang up, but instead patted Yang Mi next to her.

"Honey, he's video calling."

"Um?!"

Da Mimi immediately perked up, "A live broadcast? Was it arranged by the production team?"

"No way~ But I told him I was recording a show, so it can be considered a joint promotion."

Dilraba felt something was off. She hadn't even had a chance to say who "he" was, so how could Sister Honey be so sure?
But she didn't have time to think about it much. At this moment, Dilraba and Bai Liang were on the same wavelength, and they both thought of promoting their work together remotely.

"Hello, Jingjing, I'm out canvassing buildings at the University of Science and Technology!"

"You Ke?"

This name was actually quite unfamiliar to Dilraba. When she was canvassing buildings, she usually went to companies like Sina, NetEase, Tencent, and iQiyi. What on earth was Youke?

But she reacted quickly, waving her hand to greet them and "introducing" the other people on the minibus to Bai Liang.

The interaction during door-to-door visits is relatively simple; it involves greeting people, chatting, and creating some entertainment value.

Overall, it wasn't very meaningful.

However, the viewers in the live stream were very enthusiastic, especially since both of them had other celebrities around them. Counting the number of celebrities is always an activity that many people are quite keen on.

Shouting "Jingjing is so beautiful" and "Yutu is so handsome" to boost the popularity of the live stream is their main "job".

However, many people have also noticed a blind spot: "What is Youke?"

For fans in the entertainment industry, Youke is indeed an unfamiliar company, and its name is obviously not as well-known as big companies like Sina and Tencent.

However, many of Bai Liang's fans became interested when they heard that he was "not doing his job properly" again and had gone to be a face model for game characters.

"Hurry! Whatever kind of game it is, it'd better be released next year! I want to beat up the big boss in it!"

"Didn't that guy who seemed to be the boss just mention that Da Xian's character is the final boss? Well then, I guess I have to play it!"

"Holy crap, Youke?! Black Myth: Wukong?! How did this thing get linked with Bai Liang?"

"Feng Ji, you've become a succubus with those thick eyebrows and big eyes? Could it be that after Guo Fan's cyber succubus and Jiao Zi's animated succubus, you're going to be another game succubus 'seduce' the Great Immortal? I'm telling you, this game is definitely going to be a hit! Otherwise, wouldn't you be dragging the Great Immortal down?"

"Hey, hey, miHoYo next door is releasing a new sequel this year, why don't you get your hands on one too?"

"A domestically produced AAA game? That sounds a bit unreliable. Let's wait for some hands-on gameplay."

"."

Seeing the number of viewers in the live stream quickly surpass 100,000, Feng Ji next to him couldn't help but relax.

So fierce? !

A count of 100,000+ doesn't mean there are only 100,000+ people in the live stream at that moment, because no matter how many more people join later, it will still show that many.

Who knows how many people are watching this live stream right now?

What a top-tier celebrity with an absolute dominance!
Old Man Bai was secretly pleased. He patted his son on the shoulder, his smile seeming to say: "Hehe, he's my son!"
Feng Ji: You're a good-looking guy! Your marksmanship is amazing!
The double monthly pass and monthly pass lottery ends in half an hour, so remember to vote if you haven't already!
There will be a chapter later.
