Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 63 I'm Not a Top Streamer

Arrived at the shooting site at nine o'clock in the morning.

At 11 o'clock, we started today's shooting.

Shen Juan obediently became the puppet of this veteran photographer and followed her instructions:
Including but not limited to changing into various clothing accessories, posing in various ways, and making various actions and expressions.

Take a few hours to complete the solo portion of the shoot.

Then I shot the duet part with my partner Lin Yun.

(Original cover)
We continued filming until 10 o'clock in the evening.

Before leaving, Lin Yun ran over with a smile on her face and waved goodbye to Shen Juan, obviously very satisfied with him.

"It's been a pleasure working together today! If you're both in Beijing and have time, we can go out and play together!"

Faced with this inexplicably affectionate look, Shen Juan forced a gentle smile.

"Well, it depends."

He had absolutely no intention of talking or contacting this real gangster girl who was confirmed to have been bullied in school. They exchanged WeChat accounts when they met just for show and naturally didn't want to chat much.

And if I remember correctly, she should be filming "Red Spider Lily" with Song Weilong right now.

She already has a boyfriend, but she is still so enthusiastic in front of other men, as if she wants to have a deep conversation
Shen Juan didn't know what to say to her. He could only say that there were too many sluts and bad girls in this circle.

Just like yesterday at the finals, after adding Li Xiaolu's personal WeChat through Ma Su, the middleman of the pimp,

This lonely young woman, who was in her prime and had nothing to do at home, immediately sent him a long, wet and sticky voice message and a photo of herself in cool clothes.

Alas, poor Naliang.

Anyway, Shen Juan felt that this was definitely not the first time that Xiaolu went out to get her hair done behind Nailiang's back and seduced a wild man.

After all, there is a saying that goes like this.

When you find a cockroach in your home, there are actually hundreds or thousands of cockroaches lurking in the dark.

After shooting the double cover of "Harper's Bazaar", the next step was to shoot the single cover of "ELLEMEN".

The cover character of this issue was Ruan Jingtian in the original time and space.

But because Shen Juan's popularity has skyrocketed recently, Dior also increased the treatment rating of this 98 supernova within their organization, so Shen Juan naturally became the cover character of this issue of the magazine.

Last time, the cover of the September issue was Wu Xiubo.

Because the high-end men's clothing brand Zegna asked him to be the spokesperson for China, and another high-end watch brand Blancpain is about to officially announce his new title of style ambassador.

Uncle-stars like him who have style, temperament, national popularity and works are still very popular in the fashion circle.

It’s a pity that the truth will eventually come out.

The bad things you did in the past will eventually be exposed.

We still start shooting in the morning and finish in the evening.

On the way home, Cai Xukun excitedly sent a WeChat message to Shen Juan, saying that he had signed up for "Idol Producer" which Kiwifruit plans to launch at the end of this year.

I have been practicing in South Korea recently, and I pray that this program can trigger high-intensity attention and discussion in the domestic entertainment industry just like PD101 did in South Korea.

He doesn't ask for big fame, he just hopes that the money he earns can help him pay off the penalty he owes to his former employer Yi Hai.

Seeing that everything seemed to be developing along the predetermined trajectory of the original time and space, Shen Juan couldn't help but laugh.

So, I first typed to wish him all the best, and then clicked on the Bihu link he sent me later.

During this period, there is a question on this question-and-answer app that has received a lot of discussion and click-through rate.

[Is Shen Juan considered a second-tier or top-tier player now? ]

The top-ranked responses were:

[Top-tier traffic, second-tier performance.]

Why do you say that?
If judged solely from the perspective of traffic and popularity, Shen Juan has undoubtedly reached the standard of a top star.

Taking into account the rampant presence of internet trolls in recent years, the data on celebrity lists in the major entertainment circles are generally inflated, so we can measure a star’s current true popularity through the data of Weibo super topic sign-ins, which is temporarily not valued, that is, the data that has not yet been eroded by internet trolls.

The only one who had more than 300,000 points was Lu Han, and the only ones who had more than 200,000 points were the three little Come on Boys.

Then there are five people with more than 100,000, namely Zhang Yixing, Wu Jiaheng, Li Yifeng, and then Shen Juan who just broke through the 100,000 mark and entered the next level. He ranks eighth among all male stars in the domestic entertainment industry.

What is this concept?
I remember last year there was a saying about "Who are the top stars in the domestic entertainment industry": four big and three small, namely Lu Han, Wu Jiaheng, Li Yifeng, Yang Yang and the three little boys.

So now, the four big and three small might become the four big and four small. Shen Juan and the three small are basically the same age and belong to the same generation. Then Yang Yang is out and Zhang Yixing is in.

(It's a bit sad. I didn't expect our great Xiao Nai to fall behind so quickly. It's shocking. I hope the super IP "Martial Universe" he is currently filming can help him recover, otherwise he will completely flop.)

And the most important thing is that Shen Juan has something that other top stars (referring to male stars only) don’t have, that is, straight male fans who are not in the fan circle and popularity among passers-by in the sinking market.

Although in the short term, male fans who are generally accustomed to freeloading and will not spend money on their favorite stars and the popularity among passers-by in the sinking market will not be able to play a role for the time being.

But as long as Shen Juan releases a single album or transforms into an actor in movies and TV series in the future, these people will more or less become interested in his works for Shen Juan's sake and become potential consumers.

Don't underestimate this hidden force.

At least from the perspective of numbers alone, the female fans of a single star cannot compete with this group of straight male fans.

Why is Zhou Milk Tea so popular for so long? Isn’t it because of this group of marginalized people in the domestic entertainment industry who don’t do data analysis or compete on the charts?

As for why Shen Juan only has top-level popularity, but his actual performance is not up to the level of a top-tier star?

This is mainly because they have been in the industry for too short a time, or in other words, the time they have spent becoming famous and having access to high-level resources is too short.

Of course, the achievements here do not only refer to the representative works of the top-tier stars (many of the top stars do not have any truly representative works at all). Other things including business endorsements, magazine covers, and many other things that outsiders may not pay much attention to are also counted as achievements.

So we can see that Shen Juan currently has only two endorsements, namely the now-declined Metersbonwe and the Chunyu Mask that was brought to him by his high popularity in South Korea.

The magazine covers that are unlocked are all second- and third-tier magazines that are not so famous. It is still a long way to go before the five major men's magazines and five major women's magazines enter the mainstream vision of the fashion circle.

Then the film, television and variety show works that are on the table include Star Asia, Produce 101, Hip Hop China, and "Our Times" in which he made a guest appearance in a few episodes.

A complete rookie resume.

But Shen Juan’s fans don’t need to worry.

Because in my opinion, Shen Juan’s current development situation and future development potential are still very good.

The main reason is that his current estimated market value in the entertainment industry is very high, and it’s frighteningly high!
His positioning is unprecedented and unparalleled, with both traffic popularity and real strength.

There are both female fans who are willing to vote for him and spend money to collect data, and there are also straight male fans who are willing to spend money on his songs.

High school and college students who are still in school work hard to collect data, while those who have already entered the society and started working, as well as wealthy women and daughters, spend money to boost sales and promote the product.

Then, didn’t Hupu do a voting survey on the favorability of domestic entertainment stars some time ago?
Among this group of post-90s male stars, Shen Juan’s voting rate, or support rate, reached an astonishing 48%!

It can be said that the new generation male star that Hupu straight men like the most or dislike the least is Shen Juan.

And as we all know, traditional traffic stars rely entirely on female fans and have no straight male audience at all.

It is still the same today. If you don't believe me, you can check Lu Han's fan map. There are no men at all.

Therefore, Shen Juan, who has become famous thanks to the hip-hop trend, can be said to be unprecedented and unrivaled!
I believe that many capital companies have noticed this and started investing in it.

In the next few months, everyone should be able to look forward to Shen Juan's subsequent development.

It should be very pleasing.

Then it is said that Shen Juan is still filming recently, and it is a campus drama that is very suitable for his age.

So let's hope Shen Juan can develop in all three fields of film, television and variety shows. I wish Shen Juan better and better in the future! Finally, I would like to borrow a sentence from a South Korean fan:

Wuli Shen Juan will always walk on the flowery path from now on! 】

After reading this fairly objective and comprehensive Q&A analysis, Shen Juan had the feeling that the person who wrote the article was his fan.

I was secretly praising him the whole time.

Of course, regardless of whether or not he is a fan, regardless of whether or not it is a marketing promotion by the company, there is one thing that no one, including haters, can deny, and that is:

It seems that Shen Juan is now really popular enough to be compared with those old-time top stars.

After a year of ups and downs in traffic and changes in the throne, domestic entertainment has finally entered a new era of the four big and four small.
