Which top celebrity doesn't support a few female stars?

It must be said that Tencent Video's support was both powerful and risky.

It's important to know that Tencent Video, Shengshi Entertainment, and Li Zhouke have not yet signed a substantive contract.

It is equivalent to having no legal binding force whatsoever.

Li Zhou could simply deny it unilaterally, profit from the traffic, and it would seem like there was almost no cost to back out.

Fortunately, the essence of celebrities striving for traffic is to make money, and Tencent Video's offer is very high, so Li Zhou is reluctant to give up this income.

Moreover, once you're in the entertainment industry, how can you possibly want fame without any financial gain?

Putting everything else aside, the 99 million yuan endorsement fee, although lasting for three years, was paid in a lump sum.

Even with Shengshi taking a 3% cut, Li would still receive 4712.4 million after tax, which would be just enough for him to continue investing in several newly launched film and television projects.

Therefore, Li Zhou's Weibo/Douyin accounts and Li Zhou's studio's Weibo/Douyin accounts immediately reposted the official announcement from Tencent Video.

The name "Li Zhou" is currently the hottest topic on the internet, so it can be considered a mutually beneficial situation.

Naturally, this gave online public opinion another angle to enjoy the drama.

ili was the most active, and seemed quite proud to speak.

"As Cheng thought, Fan Er got my Lili another endorsement deal, and it's the full endorsement for Tencent Video."

"Sure enough, from a higher perspective, this is just a farce targeting my Lili!"

"Don't you understand what it means to win people's hearts? No matter how much the haters smear my Lili, it won't affect the fact that justice resides in the hearts of the people!"

"————"

Not only that, ili also pulled off a big green garlic stunt.

Since Li Zhou became a sensation online, Ili has been relentlessly suppressed by Xiao Heizi.

Let alone platforms like Douyin, even platforms like Weibo are constantly being attacked by trolls.

Moreover, whether it's creating something like "flesh and blood growing from an ID card" or doing something else, it's all pointless.

Li Zhou's little black hair didn't care at all.

However—the repeated reversals of today's sudden negative news have made ili feel that the time is ripe.

This time they're going to stick with green garlic.

At one point, ILI suddenly launched a concentrated attack, directly chasing after the "Seven Warlords of the Sea" and besieging them one by one.

"After all this smear campaigning, the truth is out now. Apologize to Li Zhou! Stop playing dead! Don't try to convince us you're all cowards! We won't listen! The internet isn't above the law; if pushed too far, we're capable of anything!"

It's obvious that ILI's preparations go far beyond this; they have extensive experience dealing with haters.

In fact, it even included a manifesto.

There are also all sorts of ways to present evidence and facts—as for sophistry, which fan can't do that?

As the situation reversed, Xiao Heizi's voice became noticeably quieter at this stage.

They were essentially being attacked passively.

Interestingly, although everyone on ii was focused on the haters and ignored the online feuds between other fan groups, the intensity of those feuds also decreased.

It's probably ————

The tide has turned.jpg

Compared to the dramatic changes online, the emotional fluctuations of some contestants within the industry were even more complex.

Shen Junyi, who didn't even manage to get a single trending topic throughout the entire process, was initially quite impatient.

I'm worried that I'll fade into obscurity.

Later, seeing that it was all negative information attacking each other, Shen Junyi was glad that the battlefield was concentrated in the top circle.

If he gets caught up in it, given the intensity and ferocity of it today, he might end up with the earth's core completely obscured when he looks back.

After all, it's okay to fool the outside world and fans, but to truly fool yourself and keep fooling yourself is a bit brain-damaged. Shen Junyi obviously does have some brains; he knows that his background is just average and he can't participate in any major trends.

Because if you get swept away by the waves, you're doomed.

As for now—

Shen Junyi, after observing the latest public opinion trends and listening to his agent Lao Huang share some gossip, updated his opinion on Li Zhou once again.

"Li Zhou's health bar is much thicker than I anticipated, and the market's acceptance of him is far beyond what I could have imagined."

"Old stories can be dug up and re-examined—oh, it's only been a little over a year, so it's fine then."

It should be said, but Li Zhou is so popular that people often subconsciously overlook his age and how long he has been in the industry.

Thinking about this, Shen Junyi thought, "Isn't this fucking a bit too outrageous?!"

"He's only been in the industry for less than three years, yet his health bar is already this thick, and—"

A thought suddenly popped into Shen Junyi's mind, and he couldn't help but look at Lao Huang: "Do you think Li Zhou, like this, should be considered a princeling?"

Old Huang was a little unsure: "This...it shouldn't be calculated like that, he's just endorsing Tencent Video."

"There have been some new rumors circulating in the industry lately. It seems that Tencent has a drama series in which Li Zhou is involved —"

"The level of secrecy is outrageous. It's said that even extras who participate in the show have to sign confidentiality agreements."

After all, Li Zhou had finished his work on "The Legend of Sword and Fairy," and news related to him in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" gradually began to circulate.

Previously, people in the industry only knew that this project existed, but no further details were ever leaked.

The main reason is that Li Zhou has his own rhythm and plan, and can completely control the crew, so he can completely control the Reuters news.

"The other thing is that Tencent has a very close partnership with Shengshi Entertainment, but that's already public knowledge." After saying this, Lao Huang muttered to himself—

"To call him the prince of geese is an understatement; he should be called the emperor of geese."

After hearing Lao Huang's opinion, Shen Junyi agreed: "Are there any other new rumors circulating in the industry?"

"A little." Old Huang paused for two seconds before answering, "There's an outrageous rumor that says—"

"Because of all the trouble that happened today, the market is reassessing Li Zhou's commercial value, believing that—"

"The old, crude evaluation system cannot reflect Li Zhou's true commercial value."

"It is rumored that Tencent Video offered Li Zhou a rather extravagant price this time, possibly as high as nine figures, and it was a long-term contract."

Shen Junyi understood: the rumors of market reassessment were the cause, and the rumors of Tencent Video's endorsement fee were the result.

However, precisely because he understood it, Shen Junyi found it even more outrageous: "Are the rumors in the industry really this exaggerated these days?"

Old Huang: "————"

He really wanted to say that in the entertainment industry, the more unofficial the rumor, the more credible it is.

However, Lao Huang also knew why Shen Junyi would think it was an exaggeration.

Once a celebrity's commercial value reaches a certain level, the gap between them will narrow, with most falling between 1500 million and 2500 million.

Between years.

For example, Shen Junyi's endorsement fee is around 1800 per month, but if it is a two-year endorsement, the package price will be 3000.

If the endorsement period is extended to 3 years, the package price will only be less than 4000 million.

The average cost is lower, but more stable, indicating good market acceptance.

If the rumors are true, Li Zhou's endorsement fee is as high as nine figures for three years, and the average annual fee is close to Shen Junyi's fee for three years.

The difference was too great—if Shen Junyi hadn't pressed him for an answer, Lao Huang would have kept it to himself.

Clearly, in such a large entertainment industry, Shen Junyi wasn't the only one who couldn't forget today's excitement.

Like the top celebrities deeply involved, such as Wang Zeyuan, Lü Muyuan, and Zhang Jiayan —

"I wish I could wake up one day and be 40, then I could say I'm old and useless," otherwise—given Li Zhou's aggressive approach, he'll soon subtly demote me.

.

"There's absolutely no hope of transcending being a top star and becoming a true celebrity. The younger generation is so competitive, it's really difficult. Who says being a top star is good? Being a top star is the most fucking like being sandwiched in a cookie."

"The global entertainment industry has been declining in recent years, and entertainment options are becoming increasingly diversified. Given Li Zhou's strong momentum, high national recognition, and wide range of interests, is it possible for him to revive the entertainment industry?"

The opinions of those in the top circles vary in their emphasis.

Some are already planning to set them up.

Feeling that the pressure from Li Zhou, a junior in the industry, was too great, and with no hope of advancing in his career, he decided to simply pretend to be old and useless.

After all, he's already in his late thirties. The fact that he's still in the top tier of entertainment circles is clearly because he can't advance further through art and talent.

He also failed to capitalize on the era's opportunities and complete his transformation into a recognized superstar in his early years.

It would be better to just leave it there.

Some people feel like they're sandwiched in a cookie.

""

The younger generation is fixated on their positions, facing fierce competition and cold, hard realities, yet they find themselves with no way to advance.

Caught between two difficult choices, unable to advance or retreat.

Some also have high expectations for Li Zhou, hoping that he can make Chinese entertainment great again.

Clearly, they are pinning their hopes for future career development on the industry's dramatic changes.

Realizing that one's abilities have reached their limits...

Interestingly, some entertainment industry bigwigs and superstars who enjoy watching drama share this view.

"The pan-entertainment industry has a bright future. However, the film and music sub-sectors have been declining year by year. Currently, the only one who has the potential to break the status quo is Li Zhou. He has a boundless imagination, plenty of drive, strong backing, and lacks nothing."

"After all this time, it's time for a truly well-rounded young star to emerge. He possesses all the necessary skills, shrewdness, talent, and charisma; his future is limitless. Hopefully, he can reshape the Chinese entertainment industry for the next thirty years!"

"In the entertainment industry, everyone is swept up by the tide of the market. He has risen to the forefront with his immense luck and talent. I only hope that the market's excitement cannot crush such a talented young man."

Having lived a few more years, they've developed a certain level of insight into the essence of things, beyond mere appearances.

This incident today shows that Li Zhou has a powerful background.

It's also clear that Li Zhou has some skill; despite making such a big fuss, he not only escaped unscathed but also pulled off a brilliant comeback.

Therefore, I am quite looking forward to Li Zhou's future performance and hope that he will inject fresh vitality into the Chinese entertainment industry.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of these seasoned industry veterans, there are two types of stars in the industry.

One type is those players who can only capitalize on existing traffic and resources within the industry.

One type is the players who can bring traffic, fresh vitality, and fresh resources to the industry.

Regardless of their status, whether they are top celebrities or superstars, the former are simply consuming the industry's existing resources.

Regardless of their status, the latter are the ones who bring fresh blood to the industry.

Li Zhou was like that before, and he is even more so now—in the past, his large number of haters brought a new group of people to the industry.

Now, some of his creative outputs are outstanding and fresh, which can further expand the industry audience and bring new opportunities to industry players.

After all, in today's era of internet traffic, the worst thing isn't being smeared, but being ignored.

Today's excitement was indeed quite impressive. As night fell, Li Zhou learned of many new changes from Yang Sisi's report.

First of all, all the main expected goals have been achieved.

Because of Li Zhou's transformation from being heavily criticized to receiving unequivocal support from various groups, he has attracted a lot of attention.

This magnitude of heat is indeed rare in the world.

Therefore, Li Zhou's Weibo followers have been increasing rapidly, not only reaching the goal of 5000 million, but also reaching more than 5200 million.

Along with this, his Douyin followers have grown to 3000 million — and are still skyrocketing, with over 1 new followers every time the page is refreshed.

Secondly, there are the praises and comments from industry peers and senior colleagues in the gossip.

Finally, there's the commercial value that's already been realized; the endorsement fee offered by Tencent Video has indeed increased.

Don't underestimate the value of 9900 million.

In addition to the slight intervention from Mr. Xu's mother, Ms. Zeng, there are some new business cooperation intentions.

According to a comprehensive evaluation and analysis by a third party obtained by Yang Sisi, it is estimated that the number of long-term endorsements within the same time period may reach 15.

This is almost the absolute limit in the industry.

Even though brand marketing is a necessary expense, no brand hires celebrities without expecting anything in return.

Celebrity endorsements also have diminishing marginal returns—to put it another way, even if the most outstanding celebrity were to go and work at a sewing machine, no one could take their share.

Li Zhou was very satisfied.

His advance planning and risky actions proved worthwhile, and the prosperous era paid a huge economic price.

But—Li Zhou felt it was still lacking.

Without almost any hesitation, he directly instructed Yang Sisi: "There's still one thing to do. Have your team members get ready—"

Yang Sisi:

'

After hearing this, only four words kept echoing in her mind: "Never forget your original aspiration."

After returning to his hotel from the film set, Li Zhou updated his Weibo status again, this time with his own edited text.

[I didn't expect such a small thing to have such a wide impact. My little black friends, be careful! If you push me too far, I'll really sue you.]

I heard @Song Mingche, it's you again, Teacher Song. How come you're always involved in every big scandal? I really don't understand.

However, I don't think it's necessary to care about some external opinions. To use a popular internet phrase, it's just "a little bit of hardship."

How about this? Since Teacher Song has also ventured into the film industry, let's compare box office numbers and show everyone what the current top star of the Chinese entertainment industry looks like!

P.S.: The movie set was truly unique; spending a whole day there made me crave acting.

"...

Within 0 seconds, the comment section of the post became lively, with people from all walks of life showing off their skills.

For example, the haters are not ashamed but proud—"It allows my brother Zhou to update his Weibo multiple times a day, ili..."

They should be thanking us.

"Can't you just be straightforward and send us a lawyer's letter? It's been so long since we've seen a celebrity's lawyer's letter, we really miss it."

For example, iLi comments, likes, and expresses desire to hug, kiss, and lift people up immediately, while ignoring the haters.

certainly----

Song Mingche, a top celebrity who is also paying attention to public opinion trends, has also reacted to this.

He didn't have many thoughts, only a pure emotional outburst: "Holy shit, Li Zhou!"

How should I put it? It was exactly what I feared most.
