Abstract Art Award Winner

Chapter 240 The Battle of the Gods on Weibo Rankings
Zhang Jun's prototype is the former notorious bandit Zhang Jun.

During the early stages of preparation, Zhou Le specifically watched some videos online in order to play the role well.

Zhang Jun, who was being interrogated in the video, was very cooperative, answering all the questions asked, and even trying to answer some of them, although he ended up with a bruised and swollen face.

Zhou Le also checked the comments section.

Aside from a few people telling uninformed onlookers that Zhang Jun was arrested in Chongqing and what the person in charge of the case was called, the rest of the story is different.

The rest of the discussion focused on how terrifying the name Zhang Jun was back then.

As a result, when many people from Changde go to work in other places, the employers immediately refuse them as soon as they hear that they are from Changde.

After all, the original character left too deep an impression on everyone; he was a complete indiscriminate killer.

There was no particular reason; it was simply because I wanted to kill.

The woman played by Zhou Ye also has a real-life counterpart.

Aside from some artistic embellishment, the main change in the story is that the characters on the side of justice have been replaced with figures more suitable for film and television.

However, there are many gunfight scenes in this drama, and Zhou Le is very familiar with these firearms.

Zhou Le even proactively pointed out some of the unreasonable aspects.

After all, mastering firearms is not just about being proficient in operation; knowledge of the history of various firearms also falls within the scope of mastery.

Zhou Le had been busy filming lately and hadn't done any more live streams, but on this day, Tian Xiwei suddenly called and said she wanted to come over.

"Is Xiaotian coming? That's great! Can she share a room with me?"

Zhou Ye was very happy to hear the news, since the artists in the company had a very good relationship, especially the girls, who were all best friends.

Although Xiaotian is not the youngest, she is the sweetest girl that even Yu Shuxin admits is sweeter than herself.

"No, you're always thinking about the script, you should just live on your own and not disturb other people's rest."

"Ok."

Hearing this, Zhou Ye felt a pang of jealousy.

However, Zhou Le's words were not wrong. Although she did not have any scenes in the early stages, the few scenes she appeared in were quite important. Whenever the crew was filming, she would definitely be on set.

Firstly, it would be late to get back to the hotel, and secondly, she would need to practice her lines and review the script after she got back.

"Xiaotian is probably here to promote 'Story of Yanxi Palace,' which will be released in a few days. They just finished their press conference and probably thought they would come to ask me for help in promoting it."

When Zhou Ye heard that Tian Xiwei had come with a mission, he was even less inclined to disturb her.

"Ok."

Tian Xiwei arrived the next day.

"Brother Le, you guys are filming here? How come you've gotten so tanned? And what about your hairstyle?"

Zhou Le's face darkened, and he flicked Tian Xiwei's forehead with his hand.

"Come on, I'm doing this for filming. Do you even want to promote it?"

"Hehe, Brother Le, you even know this?"

"Of course I know, Yu Zheng even called me."

"Brother Le, how should we promote it?"

"Let's just retweet some Weibo posts and film some videos together. They've already prepared the list for me."

"Okay, but have you been checking Weibo lately, Brother Le?"

Zhou Le shook his head: "I haven't had time to look at Weibo lately."

"You'd better take a look. You don't know, it's been quite lively on Weibo lately. Cai Xukun's fans and Jay Chou's fans are arguing."

Zhou Le: "???"

"They're completely unrelated, how could they start arguing like this?" "Yeah, I thought it was strange at first too, but then I found out it was because of a post by a fangirl asking why Jay Chou's concert tickets were so hard to get despite his poor Weibo data?"

Zhou Le: "."

"What are they thinking? Are the younger generation really unwilling to even do archaeology? No matter how popular the 'Chicken You're So Beautiful' meme is, it's just an internet frenzy. Jay Chou, as an ancient god, has accumulated a huge fan base over the years."

The phrase "Chinese pop culture is the coolest" has slapped so many people in the face. The talent show route that Cai Xukun and his group are taking now is still the same old Korean pop culture approach.

"That's why it's so lively now. As soon as this happened, a lot of people went to support Jay Chou in the charts. Many older people may not even know what a super topic is, but now, because of this, Weibo has gained a lot of new users."

Zhou Le thought about it carefully: "Do you think this could be a conspiracy by Weibo?"

"Probably!"

But looking at Tian Xiwei's confident eyes, Zhou Le was still a little curious: "But their fight has nothing to do with me. Even if I go up to take a look, I'll just be a bystander. Even if I vote, I'll just casually cast my vote for Zhou Jielun."

"No, no, no, it's very relevant. It's because Jay Chou is going to have a concert soon, and the tickets sold out in seconds, so that fan girl asked this question."

However, these two are currently competing for the top spot. Although Jay Chou is in first place by a wide margin, Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo have also risen from second or third-tier artists to top stars in just one month due to the airing of "The Untamed".

So those people dragged you into it too, probably wanting your fans to get involved and muddy the waters, and also to shift the blame onto you.

Zhou Le: "???"

"No, are they crazy? What does this have to do with me? I didn't say a word."

"But that's just how it is. Right now, Jay Chou is in first place by a wide margin, with an influence of over 100 million. Second place is Cai Xukun, with an influence of over 50 million."

Next up are Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo, followed by Li Xian, Zhu Yilong, and the three members of TFboys.

Normally, Yang Zi and Zheng Shuang could barely make it into the top ten, but this time everyone rushed to climb the rankings, and they got you in too. Now only Yang Zi can get tenth place.

Even Dilraba couldn't get in, but your current eighth place is much worse than Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo's third and fourth places, so people say you don't have any popularity.

Zhou Le sighed: "What are these people thinking?"

"No, I have to go and tell them."

Zhou Le then checked Weibo and found that the rankings were indeed as described.

He has never had any particular interest in this kind of ranking.

After all, it won't bring you much benefit, and it will only make you a target of public criticism.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Le then cast a few votes for Jay Chou and posted his voting record on Weibo.

"To do my bit to commemorate my past youth."

The number of votes may be small, but this attitude is extremely important.

Because most of Jay Chou's fans don't care about these chart rankings, some of them, when they didn't have enough points, went to the supertopics of Mayday, Eason Chan, and Sun Yanzi to ask people to help them vote.

Most of these people are driven by a desire to save face rather than fight for material gain.

As for the people in question, it's not appropriate for them to speak out at this time.

But Zhou Le's words immediately excited many people.

Those who voted for Zhou Le were either those with money who contributed a small amount of money, or those without money who spent some time.

But you can't get there that way.

When Zhou Le made his stance clear on the spot, they immediately perked up and poured all their resources into Jay Chou's side.

Zhou Le's fan base is now quite diverse.

Besides his own fans and those who only want to see abstract art, there are also fans of Yu Shuxin, Tian Xiwei, Meng Ziyi, Gulnazar, Dilraba, and others.

These people usually just do some data analysis for their own artists. Now that the battle of the gods is underway, their own artists are definitely not going to make it. So they might as well join in the fun and vote for Jay Chou.
