Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 281 I helped you promote your business, and you want to sue me? Is there any justice in this world?! (Please subscribe)

The writing studio has been praising female celebrities for the past year or two.

I've come up with countless gimmicks to motivate the writers.

Zhang Yan, the head of the studio, let everyone freely choose the female star they wanted to praise.

You can praise anyone you want.

However, Blue Star Entertainment did not do well after its establishment.

The articles produced each day must be subtly chosen to feature mostly artists from the Blue Galaxy.

Of course, Zhang Yan didn't say it explicitly.

I only said that I admire Bluestar Company.

The writers had no idea that Tang Wencai was the big boss of the studio.

But it doesn't matter who you're praising, or how you're praising them.

Everyone has been coming here in different ways for the past two years.

Purely complimentary articles have been written to death.

There was absolutely no passion for "creation".

Finally, today Zhang Yan issued new creative requirements.

Fan Bingbing versus the Four Little Actresses!

The message was posted in the group.

The part-time writers scattered across various colleges, universities, and vocational schools immediately perked up.

"Ok?"

"Boss, explain in detail."

The requirement is simple: wasn't there a saying online recently that "the four little actresses are not as good as Bingbing"?

This is our writing topic.

"Incite a war?"

"This is truly delightful! I'm so tired of writing those overly exaggerated articles."

The studio has been open for quite some time now.

There is a group of experienced "veteran typists".

They were initially worried that they wouldn't be able to keep the job for long.

Unexpectedly, they worked on it from their junior year until graduation, and eventually it became a full-time job.

This seemingly unprofitable studio still exists.

As long as the quality is up to standard, there is no limit to the number of manuscripts that can be submitted.

A veteran employee, drawing inferences from this example, said: "So it's just about putting one down and praising another, right?"

"I think Southern Metropolis Magazine has absolutely no right to select any 'Four Little Actresses'."

"why?"

"Nonsense, they've... cough cough, I mean, all their reporters and staff combined, how many A-list celebrities have they even befriended? And yet they dare to select the 'Four Little Actresses'?"

"I understand! You mean—Tang Wen?"

"That's right, if anyone is qualified to select the 'Four Little Actresses' in China, then Director Tang is undoubtedly the chief judge!"

"Seconded"

"agree"

"What are you saying? You think I, Tang Wen, can't be evaluated in Hollywood or Europe?"

"?!"

"There are masters too!"

Most writers are male.

They can talk about female celebrities endlessly.

I envy neither the mandarin ducks nor the immortals, but I envy Director Tang every single day.

[Alright, alright, this angle is good. HR and finance, take note. The person who made this suggestion can come home after get off work to collect a 50 yuan bonus.]

"Oh my god! Thank you, boss!"

That means QQ doesn't have any emojis available right now.

Otherwise, the writers would already be arguing about it in the group.

After Zhang Yan assigned the tasks, the writer went into a frenzy of output:
Fan Bingbing outshines four young actresses

Outshining the Four Little Actresses
Far surpassing the four little actresses
……

A series of posts, like mushrooms after rain, appeared on various online communities.

Because Fan Bingbing took it very seriously, she took a lot of photos beforehand.

There are stills from the show, behind-the-scenes photos from the set, everyday photos, and fashion photos that were specially taken at a paid expense.

All of these are high-resolution photos.

It's very eye-catching, but not too revealing, as Director Tang wouldn't allow it.

However, Fan Bingbing's face at 20 years old is still very striking, even without makeup!
There's absolutely no need to resort to revealing clothing to grab attention.

In 2002, digital cameras were not yet widespread, so this photo was a complete game-changer.

While maintaining clarity, Tang Wen had the file size compressed.

It's very convenient to view when posted in the article announcement.

To be honest, the profession of photographer in China is still in its infancy. The four major fashion magazines in China are either in their early stages, not monthly publications, or have not yet entered the Chinese market...

Tang Wen felt it necessary to get involved, so he casually sent a message to his assistant Xia Tian, ​​asking her to collect information.

Fashion resources and magazine sales can be a significant boost for celebrities.

In later generations, whether or not someone has appeared in five of the four major fashion magazines will become a point of contention and attack when fans argue.

That's right. According to common sense, the four major magazines actually consist of five publications.

Just a few days have passed.

The online discussion about Fan Bingbing overshadowing the four young actresses has spread from the internet to offline.

People who frequently browse the internet often discuss Fan Bingbing during meals, and they know her works and movie box office records like the back of their hand.

Some young people even secretly regard her as an idol.

Because it was at Tang Wen's behest.

The coding studio delved into her life story.

Zhao Gege didn't become an instant star upon her debut!
Zhang Ziyi wasn't as lucky as Zhang Yimou, who was selected by director Zhang Yimou before even graduating from school and became a "Mou Girl"!

Unlike Xu Cai Nu, who has an older man protecting her!
Unlike Zhou Xun, whose acting talent is obvious even to laymen!
In short, Fan Bingbing's growth story is that of an ordinary girl who didn't get into a good university, but gradually worked her way up.

That's so down-to-earth.

This is a story of how hard work pays off and perseverance eventually brings rewards!

In 2020, this claim was disproven, and hardly anyone believed it anymore.

But now, in 2002, there are many opportunities in society.

People still believe that hard work leads to success.

Therefore, Fan Bingbing, who became famous at a young age, has become a role model for many people.

In addition, her achievements are indeed outstanding: her music album sales have exceeded one million copies.

"A World Without Thieves" grossed over 100 million yuan, setting a new record for domestic films. Although it was later surpassed by "Infernal Affairs 2", it is still a record.

The image of the cold and beautiful female thief in the film has deeply impressed people.

In addition, he gained support from netizens during the recent online debate with some veteran directors whose names he had never heard of.

The film "Peacock," in which he starred, has been shortlisted for the Cannes Film Festival in France ahead of schedule.

Currently, she is the lead actress and producer for two fantasy martial arts dramas, "Shuiyue Dongtian" and "Lingjing Chuanqi".

It can be said that they are very confident.

What "Four Little Actresses"? They're not even enough for me to beat with one hand!

The domestic internet is still in its infancy, and these four young actresses have hardly ever seen any serious online feuds.

I was completely overwhelmed by thousands of posts a day.

what's the situation?
Anyone who didn't know better would think they had broken some terrible law!

Such a grand event, just for the sake of fame and fortune?

Even if you realize it, there's not much you can do.

None of the talent agencies, including Huayi, have an online department.

There are no companies in the market that offer related services.

Moreover, the companies that the four young actresses signed with are just so-so in terms of strength. When faced with Fan Bingbing's "dragon riding in their faces," they didn't react at all.

Instead, they were a little scared and took the initiative to ask the artists to explain clearly: the title of "Four Little Flowers" was given by Southern Metropolis Magazine.

They were also asked to temporarily avoid confrontation.

This infuriated the women.

Young Master Zhou went straight to Blue Star Entertainment, accompanied by the Princess, and carrying a hammer-shaped balloon, and arrived at Tang Wen's office.

She knew that Fan Bingbing was Tang Wen's man.

What else can be said?
My good friend was indeed caught in the crossfire.

Fan Bingbing had no grudge against her.

She mainly wanted to target the other three, namely Zhang Ziyi, the wild princess, and the talented Xu.

I didn't mean anything by it, nor am I discriminating against any of you. I'm just saying that everyone here is...

Of the three, she undoubtedly hated Zhao Gege the most, as well as the other princess!
Therefore, without any discussion, Tang Wen removed his good brother from the attack range.

Focus fire on these two.

It has to be said that Zhao Gege is influential and has a high level of national recognition these days.

Unfortunately, she herself was not upright.

The "island nation" incident caused her to lose most of her public favor.

After the incident was reported, many elderly people held up the newspapers and expressed their heartache and indignation.

Furthermore, her taste in film selection is generally poor, earning her the label of "box office poison" from the media. Adding to this, her portrayal of the princess is too deeply ingrained in the public consciousness.

Many production teams are hesitant to cast her as the female lead.

Aside from music albums, in other aspects, they really can't beat Fan Bingbing, whom Tang Wen just supported.

In terms of music, thanks to the nationwide influence of "Wild Princess", she sang songs from the film in her album.

The cumulative sales volume is impressive.

Supporters of both sides waged war online.

Zhao Gege's fans were routed and suffered a crushing defeat.

In the end, they could only barely stabilize their situation by having their music albums also surpass one million copies sold and by playing the role of a princess.

The writers were as excited as if they'd been injected with adrenaline:
"Cool!"

"I never knew work could be so enjoyable!"

"A brutal massacre, okay?"

"Zhao has already fallen apart. She publicly stated that the title of 'Four Little Actresses' was bestowed upon her by the media, not something she requested."

"Don't let your guard down. The two princesses are the focus of our attention."

"..."

While taking care of the two of them, we also need to take care of the entertainment company in Taiwan behind them.

After all, it was they who said, "Fan will be a maid for life."

Although the company's boss is a famous writer, some of his values ​​are really hard to tolerate.

For example: you only lost a leg, but she lost her love.

In related works, disabled people are described as "madwomen".

People who have lost love gain more moral weight because of the emotional trauma.

When her work was published, many critics criticized her.

A few years ago, when the TV series was broadcast, many literature enthusiasts and critics accused her of being filled with "love above all else" ideology.

With these news articles in hand, it would be incredibly easy to take a hit at this company.

Lin Gege, who was enjoying watching the excitement from the shore, was stunned when she woke up.

She and "Emperor Qianlong" played lovers in a movie with a rating of 4.4, and the kissing scene was a bit daring.

Many netizens in later generations, after watching it, exclaimed that it was an eyesore and ruined their childhood!

Because it's so bad.

When it was released in Hong Kong, it performed poorly at the box office and was regarded as a "failed attempt at transitioning to Category III films".

Very few people in mainland China know about this right now.

As Tang Wen's right-hand man, Zhang Yan, the leader of the typing team, is a very warm-hearted person.

How can such a daring film go unnoticed?
Immediately dispatch overseas writers to Hong Kong to buy genuine high-definition discs.

Play the video using your computer's CD drive and take high-definition screenshots!

Do not ask!

The problem is that such a good movie shouldn't be overlooked.

Zhang Yan definitely needs to lend a hand in promoting this highly anticipated play.

Previously, Lin Gege's image was very much in line with the traditional Chinese aesthetic.

She was a well-bred young lady, gentle and beautiful.

She is the dream girl of many people.

Now that the screenshot has been taken, wow!

My fragile heart shattered into pieces.

They acted as a couple in a drama?!

Are there really such greasy couples in the world?
Everyone exclaimed that they couldn't stand it.

Lin Gege was in Taiwan Province, and she was so anxious that she was jumping up and down.

"Rumor-mongers, slanderers! I'm going to sue them and get all the websites to delete their posts..."

She was rambling incoherently.

There's no way I'm going to sue them; they didn't do anything wrong.

They're just enthusiastic viewers helping to promote one of your works.

Instead of thanking them, you're suing them.

Is this justified?

Not only can they not sue, they can't even speak out.

The video couldn't be uploaded due to slow internet speed.

Only screenshots were circulated.

If they remain silent, some honest fans can convince themselves that it's "fake."

Once the statement was made, everyone understood that such a scene was indeed being filmed!
The official indirect admission is that it is the most fatal.

Seeing that Lin Gege was beaten and dared not speak.

The writer has set his sights on Zhang Ziyi again.

Zhang Ziyi has both a body of work and acting skills, so she shouldn't be too difficult to approach.

Unfortunately, she was also a contestant who brought her own troubles.

She fawned over influential figures in the industry; when Director Zhang went on stage to accept an award, she silently followed him up to curry favor…

In terms of acting skills, you have the Hundred Flowers Award, and our Bingbing has also been nominated for Cannes.

In terms of box office, everyone was a supporting actress, but Fan Bingbing set a domestic box office record.

As for music, oh, you have no music.

Let's talk about relationship issues then.

Bingbing has only one man—Director Tang Wen!
Is there anything Miss Zhang can say?
So she fought back for a while, then fell silent.

A whole week has passed!
The writers are going berserk...

How ridiculous, such a grand title as the "Four Little Actresses".

They were invincible.

It's not that no one tried to use connections to fight back.

Xu Cainu, who has a powerful background, is suspected of filing a complaint with the relevant authorities.

But how should I put it regarding the publicity aspect?

The leaders of CCTV are also their leaders.

When CCTV's chief secretary, Li, made a phone call.

Tang Wen asked him to help arrange a meeting, and he explained in person that Secretary Li, despite his busy schedule, took time out of his busy schedule to accompany him.

Everyone met and chatted, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

He didn't deny anything in his words, only referring to the individual actions of the employee's agent, and then added:

"This is Hollywood experience."

"We're just engaging in minor skirmishes; the conflict on the American side is escalating much more fiercely."

After a few rounds of drinks, Tang Wen's tone changed slightly, elevating his tone:

"This kind of activity is beneficial to promoting the development of the Internet."

"The booming entertainment industry shows that our department has done a good job!"

Before the final show ends.

The staff had to admit that Director Tang was right.

The fact that the title of "Four Little Actresses" has caused such a big controversy shows that it has not been recognized by the public!

However, after the conversation...

The writers have toned it down considerably.

Their attack was too fierce; all the information had already been revealed.

Now we just have to wait for time to tell, and there will be even more people and media outlets questioning whether the "Four Little Flowers" are truly deserving of their titles.

Many media outlets are on Fan Bingbing's side.

Everyone wants a piece of the entertainment news pie.

Why should your magazine get the lion's share of the profits?
Did you report this unauthorized ranking of the "Four Little Actresses"?

Has it gained our approval?

In later years, the Southern Metropolis Daily did indeed reap considerable profits from its selection of the "Four Little Actresses".

So much so that every few years, a new batch of "Four Little Actresses" is selected.

Of course, one year it was co-sponsored by Tencent and hundreds of media outlets.

It was the year Liu Yifei and Yang Mi were in.

If others can do it, Tang Wen can certainly do it too.

He stirred up trouble not only to elevate Fan Bingbing's status.

Furthermore, this should be used to expand Renren.com's influence.

If one can hold the power to influence such selection processes, there will naturally be many benefits.

In the blink of an eye, it's been almost a month since "Hero" was released.

The box office hit another level, reaching a cumulative total of 1.7 million yuan, and the extension key was obtained.

It's about to break the record of 200 million yuan set by "Infernal Affairs 2" not long ago.

At the entrance to the Spring Festival Gala, Tang Wen was stopped by reporters who asked him for his impressions.

"I am sincerely happy for director Zhang Yimou. This shows that our film market is booming, and it proves the achievements of the China Film Bureau and Chinese filmmakers!"
As for my record being broken...

The only value of records is that they are broken!

After speaking, the bodyguard stopped the reporter, and Tang Wen strode into the Spring Festival Gala backstage.

It wasn't that he was in a hurry; he was just worried that no one would apply skin cream to his sister Zuxian!
You should know that Wang Zuxian gave herself more than 20 million this year.

Tang Wen must repay her tenfold, a hundredfold, fiercely, without reservation, and without holding back a single bit!
