The battle for traffic in Chinese entertainment

Chapter 267 The Emperor of Asian Fashion is about to ascend the throne
Zhou Jieqiong and Cheng Xiao were the first female idols to return to China from South Korea to develop their careers after the Korean restriction order.

Before they returned to their country, neither of them was nobody in South Korea, but their development after returning was so different that it is hard to describe.

For Zhou Jieqiong, a trainee from a small company Pledis, in 2016, the first "Produce 101" talent show series, she stood out among the participating trainees with her good looks and eventually got sixth place and debuted in the limited group ioi. This was her luckiest moment, reaping the first wave of dividends from the new era idol talent show model, and it helped her attract a group of fans in the domestic Korean fan circle.

However, because it was the "first to try", the project's operations were not very mature. After the show became a big hit in South Korea, ioi only had one year of activities and its actual operating time was only less than half a year.

Zhou Jieqiong, who became the mid-most popular member of the ioi group after her debut, originally had a CP with Somi, the group's top member and the one who eventually reaped the benefits of ioi, but they were unable to "suck blood" together for long.

At the beginning of last year, ioi disbanded, and Zhou Jieqiong returned to P company and debuted in the group Pristin. It is difficult for girl groups from small companies to make a name for themselves, so after the album was released and the response was mediocre, they began to return to China to develop their careers.

She bought a lot of press releases, boasted about her beauty, and played the victim of being bullied by her group members... She did it in a very realistic way, which attracted many fans to come in and buy shares in her, who regarded her as a young star with great development potential.

Unfortunately, after leaving the South Korean stage and company packaging, more and more shortcomings were exposed. Her appearance was not that outstanding, and the personality she showed on variety shows did not give a good impression to the audience.

Then, he tore up Cong Wang’s car in front of his fans, killing all the fans and Lu Hao.

In her previous life, Miss Zhou Jieqiong's "hard-working" career after returning to China ended just like that.

To sum up, the highlights of her idol career are her debut in ioi and her stunning appearance as one of the two beautiful mentors on "Idol Producer" with Cheng Xiao.

Gone.

As for Cheng Xiao... she has a great figure, and her good looks when her bangs are down. She also worked very hard during her trainee career. Even though Starship is a small company in South Korea and Cosmic Girls is a group of average popularity, she was able to carve out a place for herself in South Korea.

In South Korea alone, ioi is more popular than Cosmic Girls, but Cheng Xiao is more popular than Zhou Jieqiong.

Therefore, before returning to China, more people were optimistic about the development of Cheng Xiao, the number one female star of Lihua, than Zhou Jieqiong.

Unfortunately, what highlights did Miss Cheng leave behind in her previous life?

Not to mention her stunning debut in “Idol Producer”, she was quickly overtaken by Meng Meiqi and Wu Xuanyi who returned to China from the same group.

——It’s hard to say, it’s too much of a test of decision-making, and this kind of decision must be made by the company together. Returning to China to be a talent show mentor is more noble than being a trainee student.

But after all, Li Hua is the number one sister, and a short-term change in popularity will not affect the company's attention.

Then there are the five spiritual children in the TV series “Detective Chinatown” and “three, two, one, start the group” in “You’re Beautiful When You Smile”.

——Mr. Du of Lihua has called Liu Cheng and started to study the TV series "Detective Chinatown".

This is a famous flop that went viral. All the other female lead actors also flopped.

There are many people criticizing Cheng Xiao for not wanting to smile sweetly after returning to China, but it is really hard to be happy when things turn out like this.

Then, the small trumpet rebelled against the Yin-Yang netizen, and went to the BlackPink concert in a plaster cast and a wheelchair...

But after all, Li Hua is the number one female star. Although Zhengyi has shrunk, she is still outstanding in the domestic entertainment industry, and there are still many netizens who are thinking about her.

Unlike Zhou Jieqiong, who disappeared after getting on the bus.

In contrast, it is very common to be confused in the entertainment industry, but one should not be too confused; also, appearance and the connections you hold are both very important.

Xu Xing was sighing in his mind and expressing his views at the dinner table.

"I have confidence in the program. The living environment of domestic idols will definitely improve. It's time for China to produce a group of our own real idols! But the dream of being on stage still requires personal efforts to persevere.

“If you can go straight to acting, would you still be willing to spend so much sweat in the dance studio, practicing over and over again day and night, just to perform on stage for five minutes?
“I once thought I could do it. I’ve thought about it over the past two years and have practiced in private, preparing a stage where I can sing and dance to my heart’s content, just like what I dreamed of when I first wanted to be a trainee.

“But until now, I have only stood up on stage and sang.”

After Xu Xing finished speaking, he laughed at himself.

The originally quiet private room was immediately filled with sighs.

All kinds of "Brother Xing is sincere", "Brother Xing's speech made me want to cry", "Boss Xu spoke well", "I am also very ashamed"...

It wasn't Xu Xing who wanted to do this, but the producer of the program, Jiang Bin, who kept leading the topic to the height of the domestic idol industry, and even insisted that Xu Xing, who was laughing, say a few words.

“It’s much easier to get acting opportunities in China than in South Korea, which is why I worked so hard as a trainee, but it’s easy to relax after I start acting.

"But in reality, acting is not an easy thing. It takes more effort to act well than when you were a trainee. If you don't seize the opportunity, you will soon have no more roles to play.

"By then, if I give up the stage and fail to transform into a successful actor, and continue to hang around in the entertainment industry, I won't earn as much as an internet celebrity. If I regret it later, who can give me the lost opportunity?"

Maybe it was because the admiration in Sister Cheng and Sister Zhou's eyes was too strong, and their words and expressions showed special respect for the senior, that Xu Xing couldn't help but say a few more words.

This is a reminder for the younger generation.

——Cheng Xiao and Zhou Jieqiong were both born in 98 and neither of them has celebrated their 20th birthday yet.

Wang Jiaer has always kept his original intention of being a variety show star, and both of them will start acting soon.

Actually, there is no point in saying it. Although they both seem to be quite touched after hearing it, they entered the entertainment industry after all just to make easy money.

Xu Xing just happened to have a little talent for acting, so he didn't have to put in too much effort to act passably.

If acting was too difficult, Xu Xing would give up being an actor and concentrate on being a screenwriter and singer.

After the dinner, everyone got to know each other.

Xu Xing's status was fully respected throughout the dinner. Although Wang Jiaer kept making jokes to ease the atmosphere, on the whole, a "natural ecology" of the entertainment industry was formed in which big names and newcomers were two different species.

At one point they talked about Cheng Xiao's dancing and Zhou Jieqiong's pipa. After Xu Xing praised them, the producer jokingly suggested that they perform a piece.

Cheng Xiao was quite embarrassed. The private room was not big and she couldn't dance at all.

Zhou Jieqiong actually brought a pipa in the car. I don’t know if it was prepared in advance, but he immediately stood up and prepared to get it.

However, Xu Xing still stopped her and helped Cheng Xiao out of the predicament.

If the paparazzi outside saw her bringing the pipa in and the photos got out, Xu Xing would definitely be criticized together with Feng Xiaogang.

——Feng Xiaogang asked Miao Miao to dance at a party at home during the Spring Festival last month.

This kind of thing is really boring at a dinner party. If you really want to perform a show, just do it in private.

For example, Teacher Tong said that she has been rehabilitating dance recently and plans to teach Xu Xing some girl group dances for her entertainment. Xu Xing encouraged her and expressed her expectation.

Of course, Xu Xing's gentle and noble demeanor as a senior also won the sincere gratitude of his two younger sisters.

Long after the dinner was over, he kept expressing his gratitude on WeChat.

Xu Xing had finished writing the script and had finished two rounds of writing with Lin Wan'er and Fan Ruoruo. When he picked up his phone, he saw that they were still thanking each other.

Among them, Cheng Xiao was making small talk. She first talked about the inspiration Xu Xing gave her today, and then expressed her admiration for Xu Xing and her love for Xu Xing's works.

"Detective Chinatown" talked about the most, from one to two, Qin Feng is so handsome, Tang Ren is so funny, hahahaha~

It was obvious that he wanted to turn to the TV series, but until Xu Xing said that he had to go to bed early because he had to shoot the next day, Cheng Xiao still couldn't turn around.

Zhou Jieqiong was very eager to try, and his intention to get on the car was very obvious.

Logically speaking, she had just returned to China and had not been beaten up yet. How could she be so ambitious at such a young age?
You can't just think that you are a pure and innocent boy who wants to seduce me!

[When I couldn't sleep, I wanted to go out and buy some beer. I wonder where I can buy beer nearby... Bro, do you like beer? ]

[I'm going to sleep now. I have a filming tomorrow.]

Same reply.

【Oh oh oh! Sorry! 】

【Good night, bro! 】

She sent one more "Oh" than Cheng Xiao. Xu Xing naturally responded politely.

【Good night. 】

There will be a chance to appreciate Sister Zhou’s pipa, but now 1 is not greater than 2.

"Brother, stop taking pictures!"

The lively Fan Ruoruo acts coquettishly.

“I didn’t take any photos.”

Xu Xing said as he threw the phone away, held her restless little head, and his other hand gently stroked Hao Wan'er's head.

"Can't you learn from Wan'er and concentrate on what you do?"

Lin Wan'er raised her head and rolled her eyes at Xu Xing.

Active eye roll.

She understood very well the look that Xu Xing liked, which was not about being completely docile or clingy.

Various timely changes can get more affirmation and encouragement from Xu Xing.

Seeing Fan Ruoruo struggling desperately with Xu Xing's encouragement, she also smiled at Xu Xing.

...This kind of interaction behind the third party's back made Xu Xing give Li Yitong the feeling that she was the one who was most valued at this time, and it made her more and more happy with it.

……

Fly to Paris.

……

Xu Xing had a good sleep on the plane and was full of energy when he got off the plane.

However, according to the previous arrangement, the afternoon is still a time for Xu Xing to catch up on sleep and adjust to the jet lag.

Then, Reba, who was waiting in Xu Xing's room in advance, was not very happy when she saw Yang Mi coming to meet her.

It was originally agreed that she would hold Xu Xing in her arms while they slept this afternoon to help her adjust to the jet lag.

But since Xu Xing had had enough sleep and had some energy left, he came to help!

"Miba" is indeed a combination that provides a completely different experience from "Wanruo".

Both Mi Qian and Ba Hou are truly talented, not to mention that in terms of popularity, Mi Ba far exceeds Wan Ruo.

Now, Miba and Alice are the two top female stars with the highest traffic in China. Although they are only popular in the fan circle, the fans of Bee and Alice are the most powerful.

——After Lu Han officially announced his relationship and sent Reba to the immortal realm last year, there have been constant frictions between these two groups of Jiaxing’s fans. They have fought several times, big and small, and the fight is now reaching a fever pitch.

Alice claimed that Reba's Dior endorsement would be officially announced soon, mocking Yang Mi as a country bumpkin who looked down upon luxury brands. Bee retorted that it must be Mi's Givenchy that would be announced first, mocking Reba for the endorsement she got through Xu Xing.

——Rumors about Xu Xing bringing Reba to Dior have been circulating online since New Year’s Day, saying that she has been in a relationship with Xu Xing. So far, Alice’s fighting power is still the result of the siege and abuse by the King Oyster Mushrooms. Attacking this point is the easiest way to break their defense, because Reba posts photos with star elements on Weibo once every two months on average.

For this reason, the number of times Yang Mi and Reba have marketed their good sisters in the same company has greatly increased in the past few months.

Visiting the set, wearing the same outfit, giving each other gifts, helping to comb hair, burying in each other's arms and hugging, leaning shoulder to shoulder and head to head, reposting Weibo to express love, pretending to kiss Mai Ji...

——Many of these photos were taken with the help of Xu Xing.

There are so many tricks and it's like they're in a relationship, so much so that fans are posting questions every day asking if the two are really dating?
Xu Xing is the one who can best answer this question.

We didn’t talk, but our communication became more and more natural, and our relationship really got better and better.

Of course, there is also competition behind the scenes.

For example, after Reba left, Teacher Yang continued to use his talents and proudly shared his experience.

"How about this? I'll say that as long as I'm here, she'll agree to anything."

Xu Xing smiled and helped Teacher Yang to tie her hair up again. After practicing a lot, Xu Xing is now particularly good at helping others to tie their hair up.

Fingers rubbed cheeks.

Teacher Yang smiled beautifully.

sigh.

"Hey Xu Xing, actually on the first night we were together, I knew you were going to pick on me. I was actually quite unhappy and angry, and felt that you were going too far. But you were too strong. I struggled several times, but still felt that I couldn't leave it, so I completely surrendered to you. Now it seems... I can't resist anything you ask me to do..."

At the end of her speech, she felt a little sad.

Teacher Yang has never been so frank.

"As long as you are happy."

Xu Xing smiled and pinched her chin.

"Yeah, I'm very happy..."

Teacher Yang looked into Xu Xing's eyes intently and murmured.

"So, if you want to be happy forever, let me keep suppressing her, and then she will become completely like me and won't have any other thoughts..."

One seems dashing but is actually very obedient, while the other is twisted and evil in nature, and his sense of depravity is getting stronger and stronger.

Unlike Wanruo's short-term experience, Xu Xing really wanted to hold on to it longer.

...Actually, it's also to help their fans and let the two of them maintain a good relationship.

……

LV's fashion show gave Xu Xing the best treatment. She was the first one to be introduced on various social media. Although the title used was just "friend", everyone could see that Xu Xing had already joined LV, and it was only a matter of time before she was officially announced as the global spokesperson.

Because Xu Xing has been filming on the set, she hasn't found time to take the official photos or the photos that she is going to put out.

During the show, the head of LVMH personally escorted Xu Xing into the venue and sat with her.

The most central location of the show.

The chief designer was originally on the other side, but Teacher Fan wanted to sit next to Xu Xing, and Xu Xing met her request.

It's a very boring show, but playing some games can help relieve boredom.

Originally they wanted Xu Xing to open the show, but Xu Xing declined.

This is a women's fashion show...

From the moment Xu Xing's flight landed in Paris, the domestic fashion circle began to get agitated, and when Xu Xing appeared at the LV show, the atmosphere immediately exploded and boiled.

Although it was just a simple rumor of a change of club, they all knew:
The emperor of Asian fashion is about to ascend the throne.

——The fashion circle is so tacky.
