Rebirth of Chinese Entertainment, starting with the strategy of 95 flowers to counterattack

Chapter 109: Gu Yang and Xiao Tian create a CP (couple pairing) – Gu Yang's live stream.

With only 5 hours left until the first live broadcast of "Qingqing's Daily Life", many netizens are already filled with excitement and anticipation.

Fans had already prepared their seats and were frantically refreshing the topic on various social media platforms, eagerly anticipating the lead actors sharing fun anecdotes from filming during the live stream.

The vast majority of them came for Gu Yang, since Gu Yang is getting busier and busier and rarely does business these days.

This live-streaming opportunity is rare, and the fans are incredibly excited!
Just then, the hashtag #GuYangMysteriousGirlfriendAppears# unexpectedly surged to the top of the trending topics list, instantly igniting the internet.

At first, everyone was quite calm!
Gu Yang is currently very popular, and all sorts of unfounded rumors about him have been circulating.

But when the video was released, netizens couldn't sit still.

In the video, people are coming and going at the gate of the Shanghai Theatre Academy. Tian Xiwei is wearing a simple white dress with a light blue knitted cardigan. She looks youthful and sweet, just like a campus goddess.

She walked up to a black luxury car, the door slowly opened, and Gu Yang's sharply defined profile came into view.

Even though it was just a fleeting glimpse, it was enough to make fans scream.

Tian Xiwei bent down and got into the car, the door closed immediately, and the luxury car sped away, leaving behind only the astonishment and speculation of netizens.

The media, with their keen sense of smell, instantly became like sharks that had caught the scent of blood, howling and starting to write wildly incoherently.

Gu Yang's new relationship exposed; his girlfriend is none other than Tian Xiwei, the female lead of "Qingqing's Daily Life".

"The drama 'Qingqing's Daily Life' is already a hit before it even airs, with the off-screen romance between the male and female leads stealing the spotlight."

"Gu Yang and Tian Xiwei are suspected of developing feelings for each other while filming; they were photographed on a sweet date."

Exaggerated headlines emerged one after another, quickly dominating major entertainment sections.

Gu Yang's fans were instantly outraged, with some expressing their disbelief and lamenting in the comments section.

"My brother said he'd focus on his career, so how come he's suddenly in a relationship?"

"It's fake, it's definitely a publicity stunt!"

"Really, I knew it a long time ago! That kissing video from last time, they were definitely a real couple!"

"What about Tong Nian? Zhou Ye is the rightful wife!"

"Then what about Guan Xiaotong? She's the rightful wife!"

"Get out of here, are you a fan of Guan? How shameless, are you trying to piggyback on his fame?"

"Have you forgotten the rumors about them kissing during school rehearsals?"

"Didn't you yourself say it was just a rumor?"

"What about Sister Meng?"

"Holy crap, who is Sister Meng? And what does she have to do with this?"

"I know, I know, it's that singer who sang 'Learn to Meow,' right? He sings pretty well!"

"Yes, yes, yes! It's her! Do you guys know who wrote that song? Gu Yang! It's confirmed!"

"So, does that mean they also had a relationship?"

"It is a must!"

"Then what about our Dudu?"

"Then what about Reba?"

"Then what about us egrets?"

"Then what about Ruth?"

"Cold salad!!!"

In the end, Gu Yang's fans were speechless, and fans of other young actresses who had heard the news rushed into the trending topic.

Basically, anyone who has ever worked with Gu Yang is just trying to piggyback on his success!

I don't even know where the building has tilted to!
Guangdong Province, Tencent Video Headquarters
Despite being in the south, November in Guangdong Province still carried a warm feeling, and the glass curtain wall of the Penguin Video headquarters building reflected the sunset.

"Teacher Gu, Teacher Tian, ​​you've arrived! This way, please!" A staff member jogged to lead the way, and the warm lights in the live broadcast area illuminated the white background.

As soon as I pulled back the soundproof curtain, a familiar, hearty laugh rang out: "Xiao Yang!"

Xie Nan approached, wearing high heels, her red suit jacket highlighting her bright eyes and brows.

She reached out and gave Gu Yang a light hug, then smiled and nodded at Tian Xiwei: "This must be the female lead of 'Qingqing's Daily Life,' right? She's much prettier in person than on camera!"

"Sister Nan! Long time no see!" Gu Yang smiled and took off his mask. "What has Brother Jing been up to lately? I messaged him a few days ago to ask him out for dinner, and he replied with a panda head crying emoji and then nothing more."

"Hey!" Xie Nan exaggeratedly rubbed his forehead, his eyes curving into crescents. "Don't even mention it! He was tricked into filming a short film a while ago, and I haven't seen him since. He finishes work at two or three in the morning every day."

Tian Xiwei leaned closer curiously: "What kind of short film is making such a big fuss?"

"Gong Shou Dao!" Xie Nan lowered his voice, then suddenly held up three fingers. "Can you believe it? The supporting cast includes Wu Jing, Li Lianjie, and Zhen Zidan, and even Thailand's Tony Jaa is in it!"

Gu Yang was taken aback and was about to call out "Father Ma" on his own, but thankfully he held back!

Tian Xiwei asked, "Who is the lead actor?"

Xie Nan, who plays Ma Yun, laughed so hard her shoulders shook. She took out her phone and showed stills from the show. "Teacher Ma plays an invincible master who fights against all kinds of kung fu superstars."

"W-wh-wh-wh!" Tian Xi's eyes widened. The entertainment industry has gotten this messy?

Has Jack Ma given up his Alipay business and switched to the entertainment industry?
"You hired someone to put those trending topics on the internet, didn't you!" Xie Nan suddenly leaned closer to Gu Yang and teased in a low voice, "No wonder Wu Jing always says you look like him, your publicity methods are getting more and more sophisticated!"

"Ahem! It's for work!"

In fact, Gu Yang had thought this CP hype very carefully. After all, while this thing is useful, using it too much can backfire.

For him, the impact was not too bad.

For Tian Xiwei, the advantages definitely outweigh the disadvantages.

Being involved in a scandal with one of the hottest celebrities right now would be a huge benefit for a newcomer like her!
Although many of Gu Yang's fans and onlookers criticized her, which affected her reputation.

But being criticized is still being criticized; once your later works gain recognition, these things can be transformed.

For example, within the company, Zhang Axin would frequently promote the "Tongyan Couple" (a nickname for a couple with youthful appearances).
After all, it's better to keep the good stuff within the family. Gu Yang is currently very popular, and associating with him will bring a lot of exposure.

More importantly, there are brand endorsements!

If Zhou Ye were to accept endorsements on her own, she would currently be priced at most as a second or third-tier actress, given that she only has one film.

If she and Gu Yang were to accept endorsements together, then it would be a case of 1+1 being greater than 2!

It's worth noting that "Qingqing's Daily Life" hasn't officially aired yet, and Tian Xiwei is currently just a newcomer with no works to her name.

Based solely on these two rumors with Gu Yang, she has already amassed nearly 300 million followers on Douyin.

Gu Yang's popularity even surpasses that of many second- and third-tier actresses, demonstrating her immense popularity.

This has already attracted the attention of many female stars in the entertainment industry, making them set their sights on Gu Yang!

However, Mr. Gu certainly doesn't want to have affairs with just anyone, because if he does too many of those things, his image as a scumbag will be firmly established.

Of course, if it's someone he's close to, like Meng Ziyi, Chen Duling, or Zhang Ruonan, he's willing to sacrifice himself.

Oh, and let's add Zhang Jingyi too!
The live broadcast started on time that day. When Gu Yang and the main actors appeared in the Tencent Video live broadcast room, more than 800 million people flooded in within just ten seconds.

The bullet screen system crashed first, with nearly 13 bullet screens per minute, leaving the back-end staff dumbfounded.

After their emergency repairs, everything was restored to normal, and the live stream chat was flooded with comments like snowflakes.

"Han Shangyan, you can actually laugh! Mommy's crying!"

"Honey, I'm here!"

"Honey, can you please tell the woman next to you to get out of here?!"

"They definitely talked! Look at the way Xiaotian looks at Gu Yang, just like the way Wang's wife next door looks at me!"

"Hey buddy upstairs, you've got a story to tell, haven't you?"

"Damn it, I am Old Wang! You son of a bitch, open the door!"

As soon as the live stream started, Xie Nan skillfully brought up the topic, with a perfectly timed smile on his face, his gaze shifting back and forth between Gu Yang and Tian Xiwei: "We drama fans are so curious, how did Li Wei, a girl from the free-spirited Jichuan, fall for Yin Zheng, the sixth young master of Xinchuan? Tell everyone about it."

Tian Xiwei wasn't shy at all and began to describe it vividly: "Li Wei was originally planning to go home after failing the selection, but she was accidentally chosen by Yin Zheng. At first, she thought Yin Zheng was sick and about to die, so she thoughtfully prepared all sorts of 'end-of-life care'!" As she spoke, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Gu Yang was amused and chimed in, "Then this little girl tried every day to please me, giving me puppies and preparing chrysanthemum portraits, saying it was to make me happy when I left. I was completely dumbfounded."

He imitated Yin Zheng's helpless expression in the drama, and the live broadcast room was instantly flooded with "hahahaha" comments, with praises of "husband is so handsome" filling the screen.

Xie Nan smiled and nodded, then asked, "There must have been a lot of fun during filming, right?"

Gu Yang's eyes lit up as he shared, "There was a scene where we were eating. The crew prepared a huge portion of food, and Tian Xiwei really ate it all to portray Li Wei's gluttony. In the end, she was so full that she was holding her stomach and saying she regretted it."

Tian Xiwei pretended to be angry and lightly punched Gu Yang: "It's all your fault. You kept making me laugh, and I almost spat out my food."

The live chat exploded again.
"They definitely talked!!!"

"Who gave you the right to hit my husband?"

"Let go of that man, let me handle this!"

Next came the game segment. Xie Nan held up her cue card, her eyes full of anticipation: "Now, let's move on to the 'Li Wei and Yin Zheng Dialogue Challenge'! Please respond to the questions that fans care about most, using the tone of each other's characters. For example..." She deliberately dragged out the last syllable, "...Why are there so many kissing scenes in the drama?"

Tian Xiwei cleared her throat, mimicking Yin Zheng's composure, and frowned slightly as she said, "This young master and Li Wei are simply moved by our feelings; these are just genuine expressions of affection. What's wrong with that?"

Gu Yang, in a high-pitched voice, blinked and imitated Li Wei: "Oh, isn't that because Yin Zheng is good to me? I like him too, so what's wrong with a few kisses?"

The two actors' lifelike performances caused the live stream chat to go wild, with fans leaving comments like "I can't stop laughing" and "These two are so funny," pushing the atmosphere in the live stream to a climax.

Finally, Wu Jing added a helping hand by making a phone call from the scene!
"Gu Yang, I'm on the set of 'Gong Shou Dao' right now. Teacher Ma asked me to pass on a message to you."

"Tell you to watch your step, kid, don't steal his Singles' Day thunder!"

"Otherwise, he said he wouldn't let you use Alipay next year!"

Gu Yang was careless; he didn't expect Jing Ge to be so good at creating mischief.

After the live stream ended, hashtags such as #Wu Jing warns Gu Yang that Teacher Ma is going to block your Alipay account# and #Gu Yang/Tian Xiwei's live stream is hilarious# quickly became trending topics again.

The day finally arrived on November 10th, and "Qingqing's Daily Life" premiered!
