Huayu became famous overnight

Chapter 141: Too Shady

"Boss Xu, I'm fine."

"listen to me."

It’s a rare occasion for Xu Ming to act like a boss.

Seeing the editor turn off the computer, Guo Fan became anxious: "Give me another half a month, I promise I can finish the editing."

"I need you for half a month? Your current state is consuming yourself."

Xu Ming's face was serious. "I want something that is carefully crafted, not rushed. And I'm here to talk about your next job."

Guo Fan wanted to argue a little, but when he heard the last sentence, he immediately shut his mouth.

The reason why he exploited himself so much was that he wanted to repay Xu Ming's kindness to him, otherwise he would not feel at ease as a director.

"But I don't think it's appropriate to talk about work in your current state. Go back and rest for a day, and we can talk tomorrow."

Xu Ming took a look at Guo Fan's slovenly appearance and his gradually depressed mental state after he left the editing work, and decided to continue the conversation slowly.

"Mr. Xu, I'm really fine. And you left me halfway through saying this. I'm afraid I won't be able to get a good rest even if I go back." Guo Fan said helplessly.

"Then you have to promise me first that after we finish talking about work, you will go back and have a good rest for three days before coming back to take charge of the editing work, okay?" Xu Ming said.

"Row."

After being reminded by the other party, Guo Fan also realized that there was indeed something wrong with his condition.

When people are in an irrational state, it is easy for them to explode their microcosm.

But falling into the vicious circle of self-satisfaction is more likely.

For a director, sensibility and rationality are equally important.

"The company bought the copyright of a youth novel published last year, "Fleeting Time," and plans to adapt it into a movie, which follows the same path as "So Young."

"I'm thinking that you should take the lead this time, and I won't participate. Do you understand me?"

Xu Ming looked at Guo Fan and spoke slowly.

The latter's pupils gradually dilated from his initial confusion, and he pointed at himself: "Me, taking on the responsibility alone?"

"Yeah, you yourself." Xu Ming nodded.

"Mr. Xu, I can't do this. I just directed a movie, and it was all with your help. I'm really going to mess it up..." Guo Fan said, waving his hands quickly.

"If the deal goes wrong, it's my fault. A man can't just say no. Even I, the one who paid for it, trust you. Why don't you trust yourself?" Xu Ming interrupted.

The other party is different from Zhang Guoshi and Jiang Wen. No matter how famous the latter two are, they are still outsiders.

But Guo Fan was his direct descendant who was trained by him.

Knowing the other party's potential, Xu Ming didn't mind helping him improve.

Anyway, when "So Young" is released, it will be difficult for subsequent youth films to lose money as long as they are full of melodrama.

What's more, he wrote the script of "Fleet of Time" himself.

The phrase "a man should never say no" completely provoked Guo Fan.

Moreover, it would be a lie to say that he didn't want this opportunity to be on his own.

I'm just worried that I can't bear it.

But now Mr. Xu has said that if the deal fails, it will be the company's responsibility, so if he refuses, he will seem petty.

"Well, I'll try." Guo Fan said unconfidently.

"What? If you can't do it, I'll change the director from outside." Xu Ming shouted.

"Yes, of course!" Guo Fan answered loudly.

"You can choose the actors. I won't interfere, and I'll have someone send you the script later. Of course, your first task is to finish editing "So Young." "Xu Ming said. A qualified cow and horse should let the boss be a hands-off boss.

Well, the boss enjoys himself, the cows and horses make money, and everyone has a bright future.

Guo Fan looked grateful, but his lips were trembling and he couldn't speak.

Mr. Xu trusts him too much.

If I let Mr. Xu down in the future, I would be a coward. I must shoot well and help Mr. Xu make a lot of money.

"In the entire company, you are the person I trust the most. In my eyes, you also have the greatest potential. Work hard and try to let me buy another house in Beijing next year." Xu Ming patted Guo Fan on the shoulder.

"Yes."

Guo Fan responded, wishing he could die.

After sending off this high-quality ox and horse, Xu Ming returned to the propaganda department and joined the group of grassroots ox and horses.

"What happened?" Xu Ming asked.

"We have verified traces of Zhuo Wei's accounts on Weibo, Tieba, blogs and other forums. Now we are basically certain that this large-scale smear campaign against Hao Qi came from the former."

Xiao Yuan paused after finishing her words, "Besides, Zhuo Wei has a lot of media resources, and many small media accounts are connected to him. Should we contact him..."

It's very simple. Since the opponent is a hard bone to chew, just move this hard bone away and only deal with the soft one behind it. It will be much easier.

Everyone is trying to make money. As long as Zhuo Wei is not confused, he will not go against Qi Ming for that actor.

"No need, we are targeting Ping'an County. I won't bite Zhuo Wei if he's not a tough bone."

Xu Ming sneered, "We need to build our reputation. This guy is a good target for establishing our authority. Don't treat him as a representative of those small media outlets. You need to separate them."

"Whether it's small media or netizens on the Internet, they never have a stance and often believe whatever they hear. What we need to do is to create a storm that is beneficial to us."

Only when the opponent is strong can the value of this actual combat be reflected.

In other words, he used Zhuo Wei as a whetstone for his own publicity department to test the abilities of these guys.

Although the former is a veteran media person, he may not have as much advantage as Qiming in the emerging public opinion platform of the Internet.

The timing is just right now. After a while, when the other party has adapted, it may evolve into stainless steel bones.

"Then I understand. Let's follow your plan. In the early stage, we should establish the image that the woman is strong and the man is weak, and then label the man as a gigolo." Xiaoyuan said.

"Well, you have to grasp this rhythm well. When establishing the image of a strong woman and a weak man, you must not reveal your purpose. You have to make people think that we are friendly forces. You have to make Hao Qi become strong and Li Moujie become weak."

"When everyone sympathizes with the latter, they will label Li Moujie a gigolo, and make up stories like the woman kneeling to a big shot for the man's resources. That's it."

"In short, we need to make netizens feel like they are being played with. It turns out that Hao Qi's previous strength was all fake. This way, they will retaliate against Li Moujie even more fiercely."

Xu Ming is very adept at this kind of trick, and in later generations, young internet celebrities have almost mastered all means of online public opinion.

He hasn't used his ultimate move, 'depression' yet.

And he is soft-hearted, otherwise he will be labeled as a "domestic violence man". Unless there are chat records, the game will be killed directly.

"okay, I get it."

Looking at her boss who looks like a sunny boy, Xiaoyuan becomes more convinced of the saying that one should not judge a book by its cover.

Negative.

It's so gloomy.

Even the rats in the sewers are so sinister.

In the future, no matter who you offend, you must not offend your boss.
