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

Chapter 176 Weibo Night Part 2

Beijing, 14:40 PM.

Water Cube

This blue palace, which once witnessed the glory of the Olympics, is now being completely ignited by the festive atmosphere of Weibo Night.

The main stage is built above the Water Cube swimming pool, featuring a semi-enclosed three-dimensional shape formed by crystal facets, with an overall "C"-shaped layout.

A large themed backdrop was set up at the entrance to the red carpet, with the iconic "Hottest of the Year" slogan of Weibo Night as the core visual element, complemented by streamlined decorations outlined by lights.

The media area and fan area on both sides are separated by transparent acrylic panels, which are printed with Weibo hashtags and keywords of the year's hottest events.

As a sponsor, OPPO set up a life-size OPPO R9s phone model next to the red carpet and arranged for the brand mascot to interact with the celebrities.

At this time, a large number of fans had already gathered outside the venue.

The early arrivals of fans turned the area into a sea of ​​colors.

Looking around, all kinds of light signs, banners, and glow sticks glittered in the sunlight, like a shimmering sea of ​​stars.

The front row seats were already occupied by a group of little girls, who were wrapped in thick down jackets, their cheeks red from the cold, but they were still excitedly whispering to each other.

Someone was carefully wiping the meticulously crafted light board, afraid of getting even a speck of dust on it.

Several girls squatted on the ground, sorting out the support materials and putting glow sticks and banners into plastic bags.

Some people even held up phone stands and excitedly broadcast the scene live to the camera.

The entire fan area was filled with a joyful yet tense atmosphere, with everyone's face etched with anticipation.

The media areas on both sides of the red carpet were already filled with all kinds of cameras and microphones.

Spare memory cards and batteries were placed next to the camera position of Harper's Bazaar, and the team of ELLE even brought in a simple ladder.

Entertainment reporter Xiao Wang was giving a preview report to the camera: "The confirmed celebrities who will be attending are..." before he was drowned out by the loudspeaker from the next station.

Self-media bloggers, holding gimbals, weaved through the crowd. One livestreamer with millions of followers shouted, "Family members, please follow me! I'll take you behind the scenes later!"

The traffic on Beichen West Road has turned into a slowly moving Milky Way.

Traffic management authorities temporarily closed two lanes on the south side of the Water Cube, specifically for the passage of guest vehicles.

One after another, the vans with dark-tinted windows entered the venue in an orderly manner under the direction of traffic police. Occasionally, when a window was rolled down, it immediately triggered a tidal wave of screams from the fans.

Three communication support vehicles were parked by the roadside, and staff were debugging the equipment: "The estimated live broadcast traffic is 1.5 times that of last year, so we must ensure that everything goes smoothly."

The online discussion has already reached a fever pitch.

The hashtag #WeiboNight# has garnered over 50 billion views, with topics like whether Yang Mi and Tang Yan will appear together or whether Gu Yang and Zhou Ye will walk the red carpet together trending rapidly.

A marketing account posted a blurry backstage photo, claiming to have seen Baby and Huang Xiaoming arguing, and it was instantly forwarded over 10,000 times.

Fans from various groups also kept releasing behind-the-scenes photos and videos, which spread rapidly online, attracting the attention and discussion of many netizens and further amplifying the popularity of the event.

At 3 p.m. sharp, the VIP passage on the south side of the Water Cube opened on time.

All guests must first sign in at the temporary red carpet waiting area, and then be guided by staff to enter the red carpet area in batches.

The first to arrive were a group of new generation artists.

Hu Yitian, who rose to prominence with "A Love So Beautiful" and "Go Go Squid!", appeared in a dark blue suit, causing a small group of screams.

The trainees from "Idol Producer" arrived in a minibus, dressed in matching black and white stage outfits, prompting a flurry of camera shutters from the fans.

The live stream chat started flooded with comments: "Who is that guy with the basketball? I need all his information in three minutes!"

Then, more and more big-name celebrities began to appear.

……

16 pm

The red carpet waiting area has been transformed into a massive social salon for fame and fortune.

The newlyweds stood awkwardly in the corner touching up their makeup, while veteran artists exchanged pleasantries in small groups, and their managers exchanged meaningful glances.

The air was filled with the scents of perfume, hairspray, and a faint smell of gunpowder.

"I heard Yang Mi is the pre-selected Weibo Queen this year?"

"Shh, look over there, Yuehua Entertainment's newly signed actress is handing her business card to the director."

"Oh, Director Li! It was such a pleasant collaboration last time."

"Oh? Let's grab a drink later tonight..."

Suddenly, a commotion arose at the entrance.

Five young girls walked in, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

"That's Zhou Ye? Why is she with a group of newcomers?"

"Tsk tsk, are they trying to form a girl group?"

"That's normal...they're all artists from Xinghe!"

"Then why is she leading the team? It's like she's the boss's wife..."

"It should be about right. Don't you see how good her resources have been since her debut?"

"That's true..."

Zhang Jingyi nervously tugged at her skirt and whispered, "I think my high heels are stuck in the carpet..."

Zhang Ruonan took deep breaths repeatedly, her fingers unconsciously twirling around her hair.

The youngest, Zhang Yifan, stood frozen in place, unsure of where to look.

"Heads up, chests out," Zhou Ye said in a low voice without turning her head, her voice only audible to the few of them. "Remember, you now represent Xinghe Media."

She suddenly turned around and personally helped Zhang Jingyi straighten her necklace, saying, "The necklace is crooked."

As if they had found their pillar of support, the girls all gravitated towards Zhou Ye.

Zhao Lusi swallowed hard: "Sister Zhou, my hands are shaking..." "That's normal."

Zhou Ye took out some mints from her handbag and handed them out. "It was my first time walking the red carpet, and I called the host by the wrong name."

"Really?" Zhang Yifan's eyes widened.

“It’s fake.” Zhou Ye suddenly laughed. “I didn’t dare to say a word.”

As soon as the girls sat down on the sofa in the corner, Zhang Jingyi couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "Oh my god, is that Chen Kun? He's even more handsome in person than on TV!"

Just as Zhang Ruonan was about to reply, her attention was suddenly drawn to a new commotion at the entrance.

Jia Shikai arrived with Yang Yang, Song Qian, Meng Ziyi, and other artists from Yuekai Entertainment.

Their appearance immediately attracted a lot of attention.

As soon as Meng Ziyi entered the waiting area, she stopped and her eyes searched anxiously for something in the crowd.

The next second, her gaze locked onto Zhou Ye in the corner, and her eyes instantly lit up.

"Ziyi, let's go talk to..." Jia Shikai hadn't finished speaking when he turned around and saw that Meng Ziyi had already disappeared.

Without even greeting her boss, she quickly ran to the corner in her high heels.

Yang Yang's outstretched hand hung awkwardly in mid-air, and Jia Shikai shook his head helplessly.

"Baby!" Meng Ziyi's voice was filled with undisguised joy.

Zhou Ye suddenly looked up, a delighted smile spreading across his face: "Sister Meng!"

She immediately stood up, and the two embraced tightly in front of everyone. Meng Ziyi even affectionately ruffled Zhou Ye's hair.

"Hey, don't rub it! It's a wig!"

"Oh, oh, oh! You little rascal, you didn't even tell me you were coming!" Meng Ziyi scolded playfully, completely ignoring the surprised looks around her, and sat down next to Zhou Ye on her own.

"I wanted to give you a surprise~" Zhou Ye rarely showed a coquettish expression as she tidied Meng Ziyi's slightly messy hair. "Look, I brought all my junior sisters with me."

Meng Ziyi then noticed the stunned newcomers beside her and immediately switched to her caring older sister mode: "Oh, Ruonan, Jingyi, it's been so long!"

"Yifan, you've grown taller again! Are you still developing?"

"Luna...you're Luna, right? Hello!"

? ? ? ? ?

Zhao Lusi's face darkened!
She felt that as the top star in Xinghe, on par with Zhou Ye, this damned woman couldn't even remember her name.

That's a bit disrespectful!
Looks like I need to find an opportunity to complain to Gu Yang!

Zhang Jingyi and the others greeted him awkwardly, but Meng Ziyi had already affectionately taken Zhou Ye's hand and started whispering in his ear: "Tell me about the recent battle situation..."

"Hehe, I even brought her milk tea and dessert today."

"Wow, my little one is getting smarter and smarter!"

"That's that's..."

When Tian Xiwei appeared at the entrance, she attracted the curious and gossipy eyes of many people in the industry.

Everyone's attention was focused on her and Zhou Shi.

After all, the two had a fight on set some time ago that caused quite a stir, although they later explained it was for the promotion of their new movie.

But everyone present was from the industry, so this kind of thing...

"This is going to be interesting..." someone muttered quietly.

Several female celebrities pretended to fix their makeup, but in reality, they were closely watching this scene through the makeup mirror.

Even the directors who were talking tacitly lowered their voices.

Who doesn't enjoy watching the drama unfold?

And it's related to Gu Yang, who has become very popular in the last two years!
Ideally, the two girls would fight, revealing some dirty secrets about Gu Yang, and all three of them would be ruined...

Meng Ziyi whispered in Zhou Ye's ear, "Hey, look how pitiful she is, coming all alone..."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Ye suddenly stood up.

"Weiwei!" Zhou Ye's clear voice broke the silence. She even took two steps forward and waved to Tian Xiwei, "There's a seat here!"

There was an uproar.

Tian Xiwei was visibly taken aback for a moment, but quickly a smile bloomed on her face: "Sister Zhou Ye!"

She walked over quickly, "I thought you hadn't arrived yet!"

When the two greeted each other intimately with cheek kisses in full view of everyone, one could vaguely hear the sound of jaws dropping all around.

What happened to the "discord within the production crew"?

What happened to the promise of "fighting for Gu Yang"?

How did it suddenly turn into a girls' tea party?

Tian Xiwei naturally sat down next to Zhou Ye, and the two of them looked at their phones with their heads close together, occasionally letting out soft laughter.

Zhou Ye even thoughtfully tidied up Tian Xiwei's slightly loose hair, his movements so practiced it seemed he had done it countless times.

"When did they..." Zhang Jingyi asked Meng Ziyi in a low voice.

Meng Ziyi shrugged: "Who knows? Maybe it happened without our knowledge."

Her heart felt heavy!

My best friend has grown up quite quickly, and her perspective has broadened as well.

What do you mean?
Does she really think she's the boss's wife?

She was a little unhappy...
