Huayu timely rain, they forced me to be the top star

Chapter 261 Buying a female artist, she counts the money for me! Da Meiyuan: Who is Xiao Gao Yuanyuan?
"Yes, I was there when you were being interviewed."

Zhang Yang picked up the teapot and poured a cup for everyone with very graceful movements.

Even Tang Yixin knew that someone was playing tricks during the interview tonight, so how could he not know?

After finishing dinner with Zhou Xingchi and others, he rushed to the talk show and sat in the audience to watch the entire show, ready to deal with any emergencies.

If he hadn't been there, Mo Xiangwan would have called Zhao Liying and Reba to remind them.

"If you don't answer well, I will come to the rescue." Zhang Yang had a calm smile on his face: "When the time comes, the director will say that there will be a special guest present."

This answer surprised the four girls, but they also felt it was natural.

Zhang Yang came in person, so the Hubei TV talk show must give him face.

Now that I think about it carefully, Tang Yixin has heard some rumors, so Zhang Yang must also know about it.

"I was worried for nothing." Zhao Liying puffed her lips subconsciously: "I was always on guard against the host setting a trap for me."

"Hubei TV is not Hunan TV. They won't do questions that are too eye-catching. The gain will not outweigh the loss." Zhang Yang said to comfort him: "Even if your answer is not good, when the content is broadcast tomorrow night, it will only play a supporting role in online public opinion."

"It will be broadcast tomorrow!?" The four girls were a little surprised. Tang Yixin asked curiously, "Won't our interview be broadcast next Sunday?"

"That's how it was originally." Zhang Yang nodded and gave the answer: "But if it's broadcast next Sunday, it won't help boost the ratings of 'Female Prime Minister', so Hunan TV has discussed it with Hubei TV in advance. After filming tonight, we'll edit it overnight and replace it with tomorrow night's episode."

"It is for this reason that I asked my agent to take this interview with you. Otherwise, you could still be at home celebrating the New Year."

"Brother Yang, don't say that. I have to thank you for saving me." Tang Yixin is very good at speaking, with a sweet smile on her face: "My parents at home are always urging me to get married. It's good to have a reason to stay away from home in advance."

Mu Tingting didn't say anything, but she was more grateful to Zhang Yang in her heart.

Her parents divorced when she was very young and she was awarded custody by her father. When she was 10, her father remarried and her stepmother brought a sister who was three years older than her into the family. She treated her badly in both overt and covert ways, and she didn't like staying at home.

"Then you can toast me a glass later." Zhang Yang accepted the thanks and said, "If this episode wasn't going to be broadcast tomorrow, Yu Zhen wouldn't have done anything tricky because it wouldn't have any effect."

Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin: "."

Is this something they can listen to?
"But it's useless for him to do this now. It will only add popularity to our TV series." Zhang Yang shook the teacup and looked at Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin: "Let's not talk about this anymore. Since you two are here, I'll tell you about the new drama."

Mu Tingting:?

Tang Yixin: ? ?
You're talking to the wrong person.

“Here’s the script.”

Zhang Yang handed a script to each woman.

Mu Tingting lowered her head and saw the words "Hear Your Voice" written on the script.

Tang Yixin lowered her head and saw "Half-Demon Allure" written on the script.

"Is this for us?" Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin couldn't believe it.

They had only worked together once, but Zhang Yang actually gave them resources?

"Yeah, they're all second female roles, don't be disgusted." Zhang Yang smiled and nodded.

"Second female?"

Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin were surprised.

They both played the second and third female roles in "The Female Prime Minister".

The resources Zhang Yang provided must be good!
The next moment, their guess was confirmed.

"'Hear Your Voice' is a Chenhai self-produced drama, with an original script by me. It has been confirmed that I will play the male lead, Gao Yuanyuan will play the female lead, Wang Yang will play the second male lead, Reba will play the third female lead, and Sister Tingting will play the second female lead. The filming will start around March 3st. The agent will contact me at that time for the specific time."

"Half-Demon Allure is my original script. It is a web series invested by Mango TV and LeTV, and produced by Huanrui Century. The male lead is Li Diedie, a popular young actor in their company, and the female lead is Li Yitong, an artist from Chenhai. Yixin, you will play the second female lead. Your agent will tell you the details."

Upon hearing this, Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin could not hide their joy.

"The Female Prime Minister" was produced by Chen Hai, Zhang Yang participated in the screenwriting and played the male lead, and Reba played the third female role. The results are obvious to all.

"Hear Your Voice" can be said to be produced by the original team. If the female lead is replaced by a national goddess like Gao Yuanyuan, the results may be better.

Although "Half-Demon Allure" is only a web drama, the investment platform and the producer are very powerful. In addition, the male lead is Huanrui's own young actor, so the quality will definitely be improved.

These two resources are not too good.

"Thank you, Brother Yang."

"Brother Yang, I won't hold you back."

Tang Yixin and Mu Tingting spoke up one after another, their smiles were very sincere.

"You're welcome. It's your acting skills that conquered me. I came here for the work." Zhang Yang said politely.

He was indeed generous in providing resources, but he was targeting these two people.

As for Mu Tingting, the drama "Everyday Happy", which almost made her a top star, will be aired in the summer. If she plays the second female lead in "I Hear Your Voice", it will bring a lot of popularity and traffic when it is aired. Secondly, her image, age and acting skills are indeed suitable, and we know her true character after working with her.

In addition, when the second season of "Everyday Drama" was halfway through, Mu Tingting was replaced by the investor, and she was unable to get better resources from the company afterwards, so it was easy for her to be poached.

If such a female artist who has both good image and acting skills can be promoted, she will become a top-tier star. If she cannot be promoted, she can still bring her own traffic, ensuring that Chenhai's self-produced dramas always have high-quality female supporting roles.

"Half-Demon Allure" is a fantasy romance drama set in the Republic of China. You can tell it's a web drama by looking at the subject matter. The original novel was serialized in 16. It was written and filmed by Yu Zhen. The producers are Mango TV and LeTV, which is currently spending money. Many later second-tier stars have appeared in the drama.

This web drama was not up to the standard for Zhang Yang to invest in and film, let alone for him to act in it himself. However, he did not want to take advantage of Yu Zhen, so he had already written it and set up a plan with Mango TV, LeTV and Huanrui Century.

The original version of this drama was terrible in terms of makeup, special effects and plot, but it was quite popular online during its broadcast. The most important reason was that Li Yitong's image was very popular and received wide acclaim, which was no less beneficial than the role of Princess Qing brought to Zhao Liying after the new version of My Fair Princess was broadcast.

The reason why the second female role was given to Tang Yixin was because their own female artists had better resources, and Zhang Yang used them to exchange resources with Huayi and gain their favor at the same time.

When the time is right, Tang Yixin, an artist who is very suitable for the role of a supporting actress and can also play the leading female role if promoted, can be recruited.

In short, there are many benefits.

"The food is here, let's eat."

After finishing the business talk, the restaurant started serving the dishes.

Zhang Yang invited the girls to start eating, no need to be polite.

After receiving two scripts, Mu Tingting and Tang Yixin became more enthusiastic.

Zhao Liying and Reba are simply foodies with simple minds, so they just rolled up their sleeves and got to work.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the box was very lively.

After eating and drinking, everyone returned to the hotel.

Zhang Yang put some hot water and prepared to take a comfortable bath.

When I returned to the bathroom again, I saw Zhao Liying already lying inside.

"You know how to pick peaches." Zhang Yang stepped into the bathtub.

"Tsk~" Zhao Liying met Zhang Yang's gaze: "If I don't take the initiative, you will ask me to rub your back. I might as well let you use my bath water."

"You are becoming more and more daring when speaking!" Zhang Yang grabbed Zhao Liying's vital point.

Her pretty face flushed instantly, and Zhao Liying's body softened. She muttered softly, "You are my boss and my boyfriend. My career and life are all under your control. You are also my protector. It's okay for me to be casual."

"She's casual but not willful. I like that." Zhang Yang changed Zhao Liying's posture: "Madam, it's your turn to rub your back tonight."

Zhao Liying: “.”

Are you going to rub my back? You clearly are.
"Look, is there growth here again?"

Zhang Yang followed his instructions and quickly gave his evaluation: "Indeed, it should be all my credit. Unfortunately, you are still no match for Mimi."

Zhao Liying's smile froze on her face: "That must be because you haven't worked hard enough."

Zhang Yang took action immediately: "Madam is right, I will work hard now."

Zhao Liying: “.” A night of passion.

At noon, Zhao Liying opened her eyes and made a mess in Zhang Yang's arms.

"If you continue to mess around, you may not be able to leave today." Zhang Yang grabbed Zhao Liying's hand.

It is as soft as if it has no bones, and it is delicate and petite. I don’t know where it gets so much strength from.

"There's something I forgot to ask you last night." Zhao Liying hugged Zhang Yang obediently: "Let's not talk about Reba and Yitong. You've arranged work for Sister Tingting and Yixin. What should I shoot next?"

"There are reasons for Sister Tingting and Yixin. I plan to recruit them later." Facing his girlfriend, Zhang Yang explained a few words considerately, and then continued: "As for your job, Sister Xiangwan should have told you, but since you asked, I can tell you."

"Besides a few guest roles, you will star in the TV series 'The Virtuous Wei Zifu of the Han Dynasty'. If nothing goes wrong, filming will start at the end of March."

"This drama was invested and produced by Huace and Xiangjiang NowTV. The original choice for the female lead was Wang Luodan, but I used my connections and resources to get it for you."

"Once the drama is finished, it will be broadcast on at least two satellite TV stations and will also be shown in Southeast Asia, which will help you increase your fame in Asia."

The TV series "Empress Wu Zetian" was ranked among the top ten in terms of ratings of all TV series aired in 14, and this was because it was broadcasted by three TV stations.

If this drama is filmed better and has a chance to be broadcast on CCTV, it will bring great benefits to the male and female protagonists.

However, Zhang Yang believes that the most suitable thing about this drama for Zhao Liying is the name of the drama.

It fits Zhao Li's style of acting in movies and TV series, with the heroine in the title.

"Husband, you are so kind!"

Zhao Liying listened carefully and was immediately overjoyed.

She turned over and rode on Zhang Yang: "Today I will sacrifice my life to accompany you."

Zhang Yang: “.”

The time came to noon.

After lunch, Zhang Yang took a business car to Changsha, Hunan.

Today the roadshow of the crew of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is here.

After a busy day today, he won't need to join the roadshow anymore, after all, he is just a supporting role.

"Ayang, is the situation online really okay?"

The roadshow ended at around 9pm.

Huang Bo did not forget to care about Zhang Yang while having supper.

Anyone with an eye can see that someone is deliberately trying to discredit "The Female Prime Minister".

However, if there is really a problem with the historical prototypes of the male and female protagonists, then it is indeed a problem.

"It's okay. It should be almost resolved at this time."

Zhang Yang took out his mobile phone and logged into Weibo.

The official Weibo accounts of Mango TV, Chenhai Film and Television, Xishiji Film and Television, and Perfect Film and Television have all released content, and also deliberately reposted clips of "The Female Prime Minister" screenwriter Zhang Wei's previous interview, as well as clips of Zhao Liying's interview to support the story.

"Lu Zhen has no prototype, she is an original character." Zhang Wei said in an interview: "My initial idea was to make it an ancient version of 'Go Lala Goes to Work', and I didn't intend to collide with any historical figures. Our 'Female Prime Minister' is also a fictional history, not a historical drama."

"In the beginning, when Gao Xixi and I were preparing to shoot this drama, we were in contact with Yu Zhen. After reading the script, he said that we could directly collude with Lu Lingxuan, saying that controversy would bring popularity. This was also a point that made us hesitate whether to cooperate with him."

"Later, I contacted Zhang Yang again. After reading the script, he immediately proposed to add a character named Lu Lingxuan to distinguish her from the female lead Lu Zhen. He said that even if we are fictional, we still need to consider that some people may misunderstand and think that we are whitewashing Lu Lingxuan, who has a bad reputation in history. This character will appear in a later episode."

"As for Gao Zhan, you can check it out. He was originally a good emperor with many achievements, but he became incompetent in his later years."

"Our play depicts Gao Zhan's youth, and his misdeeds in his later years will also be mentioned in the ending."

"No, no, no, it's not a BE. I can't spoil it, but I can tell you it's a HE."

"Zhang Yang is indeed a screenwriter. He is young but very capable."

"."

The discussion about "The Female Prime Minister" whitewashing historical figures with bad records is now at a high level.

The content of Zhang Wei's interview, combined with what Zhao Liying said in the interview, spread across the Internet in the blink of an eye.

Fans of the drama, Zhang Yang, Zhao Liying, as well as Zhou Xingchi and Huang Bo all came out to comment at the first opportunity.

[Do those who mocked Zhang Yang feel embarrassed? I have already thought about the problem you mentioned. ]

[We all know that King Gao Zhan was not good in his later years, but we don’t know that he was a handsome man with a noble demeanor when he was young. ]

[Let's not talk about other things. Just say that during his reign, he defeated the Northern Zhou and the Turks, and personally led the army to rescue Jinyang and Luoyang, which shows that he had good military achievements. The "Da Qi Code" he promulgated created the "Ten Major Crimes" and evolved into the "Ten Unforgivable Crimes" in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The feudal five-penalty system also took shape. This is a milestone and important code in the history of legal systems. 】

[I am a fan of Emperor Wu of Han and Li Shimin, and even more of Qin Shi Huang. But Liying is right. These great emperors were all incompetent in their later years, not to mention Gao Zhan? We need to look at it dialectically.]

[The point is that this is a fictional TV series, and they call it the ancient version of "Du Lala's Promotion". A bunch of people are still talking about history, and they don't understand the point.]

[Maybe he is a victim of "Palace", and Yu Zhen has to take the blame. Fortunately, this drama was not written by Yu Zhen, otherwise what netizens say now is all true, and he is being scolded while being successful, which is disgusting.]

[The most disgusting thing is Yu Zhen, he is also a plagiarist! ]

【.】

"The Female Prime Minister" was whitewashed at the peak of popularity.

With such exposure during the Chinese New Year period, the popularity and traffic are truly reflected in the ratings and online clicks.

Some people who felt embarrassed, some who were ashamed of being slapped in the face, and some who were just hoping for chaos in the world, under the guidance of some people with ulterior motives, all ran to curse Yu Zhen.

"I XXXX!"

Yu Zhen, who was waiting for good news in the office, fainted from anger when he heard the news.

Seeing this, Yuan Shanshan pulled Yang Rong and stepped on him a few times, then shouted: "Yu Ma is dead again."

Yang Rong: “.”

You know what, it really feels good.

The next day, Yu Zhen’s admission to the hospital became a hot topic.

Zhang Yang did not pay attention to this, but returned to the crew of "Fireworks in the Daytime" to resume filming.

Although he is not active in front of the stage, there have always been legends about him on the Internet, simply because "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" performed very well.

On the eighth day of its release, the film surpassed 8 million yuan in box office revenue, breaking more than a dozen box office records, including surpassing "Transformers 7" to become the highest-grossing movie in a single day, surpassing "Lost in Thailand" to become the fastest Chinese-language film to exceed 3 million yuan, and the box office reached 7 billion yuan in 10 days, two days faster than "Lost in Thailand".

However, after the Lantern Festival, the daily box office dropped sharply. After a few days, there were only about five million per day. If nothing unexpected happens, the final box office will exceed 13 billion, but it will be difficult to exceed 14 billion.

However, "Lost in Thailand" was taken off the screen on February 2, and its box office record reached 22 billion, beating Avatar's 13.7 billion to become the box office champion of mainland movies.

Regardless of how much water there is in the story, and the fact that the film was released for more than two months, the box office numbers did exceed those of "Avatar", which made many people feel proud.

As the "biggest contributor" to the success of this film, Zhang Yang is naturally mentioned frequently.

But the person concerned did not care. Instead, after the filming of "Fireworks in the Daytime" was completed, he brought Gao Yuanyuan to Beijing Film Academy as soon as possible.

"Sister Yuanyuan, Brother Yang, how come you have time to come to our school?" Nazha went to the school gate to pick up Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang smiled: "I like an artist and want to sign her to the company. She is your junior."

"My junior schoolmate?" A bunch of names flashed through Naza's mind, and he asked in confusion, "Who?"

Zhang Yang turned to look at Gao Yuanyuan: "Little Gao Yuanyuan."
