Chapter 86 The Great Feng Incident!
Chapter 86 The Great Feng Dynasty Turmoil! (2/5)
"Then I won't take any more pictures~"
Meng Ziyi shook her head, her smooth black hair falling naturally: "If the male lead isn't you, I won't film it!"
"Sister Meng, your idea is correct."
Gu Yun thought for a moment: "Our CP is currently very popular. If you go solo to film 'Princess Shang' now, it will backfire."
""
"The online comments will only be more intense than they are in the current Weibo comment section."
"Eh?"
Meng Ziyi's dark eyes flickered: "I didn't think that much about it~"
Gu Yun: "————I thought you'd finally reached the top in terms of intelligence, but it turns out you've been at the bottom all along."
[Master of Rants +1]
Forget it, why are you arguing with her?
"After Pepsi's GG ends the day after tomorrow, I'll come find you. Let's calm down the excited CP fans first."
Gu Yun has already discussed this matter with Huang Ming.
Moreover, Zeng Qingjie also urged them.
After all, nearly half of the current discussions about "Ninefold Purple" revolve around the pairing of Gu Yun and Meng Ziyi.
If Gu Yun and Meng Ziyi don't start showing some sweetness soon, the comment section for "Ninefold Purple" is going to be overturned!
Reputation will also be affected!
In two days, Gu Yun quickly finished filming Pepsi's GG and flew to Yanjing.
"Boss, have you seen the trending topics on Weibo?"
Chen Momo, who was also in business class, suddenly leaned over with her phone in hand.
After getting to know Gu Yun, she stopped calling him Teacher Gu and started calling him Boss.
In Chen Momo's words, it can shorten the distance and is also easy to say.
"What?"
Gu Yun has been busy filming Pepsi's GG these past two days and hasn't really paid attention to these things.
"The Night Watchman of Dafeng" has topped the Weibo trending list!
Chen Momo handed her phone to Gu Yun, excitedly recounting the gossip she had gathered over the past few days: "Just a few days ago, the casting information for the male lead of 'The Great Feng Night Watchman' was revealed, and it immediately made it into the top ten trending topics on Weibo."
"The situation has been getting worse in the last few days."
"Wang Hedi has been heavily criticized not only on Weibo, but on all short video platforms!"
"Then today the production team issued a statement saying that the male lead has not yet been decided, and Wang Hedi only came to the production team to audition."
"But there's Reuters reporting that Wang Hedi is the male lead, and the official account is being flooded with comments."
Gu Yun browsed through the online reviews, and basically half of them were from fans of the original novel, saying that Wang Hedi's acting and lines were too poor and he was not suitable for the role.
Some fans also said that Wang Hedi is an ugly man in ancient style, with a long face, and is not suitable for ancient costumes.
In short, they're all haters.
Criticism of appearance, dialogue, and acting skills —
Although Wang Hedi's lines and acting were indeed not very good, such a large-scale boycott is clearly orchestrated by someone.
The competition for star power in the Chinese entertainment industry follows the same process.
To guide public opinion, hire online trolls, set the tone, and stir up trouble.
"They've been set up."
""
Gu Yun glanced at it and understood immediately.
Wang Hedi, as a top-tier celebrity born in 95, is definitely a first-rate star!
Even now, the novel *The Legend of Canglan* still generates considerable discussion.
Now that she's landed another S+ level drama, her competitors must be jealous.
The person who framed Wang Hedi was probably a second-tier top influencer, or almost a first-tier influencer!
If Wang Hedi's drama is ruined, then the male lead role will probably fall into his hands.
An S+ rated drama!
There are already many fans of the original work!
As long as the actor isn't ugly and their acting isn't awkward, the show will generate a lot of discussion.
If the company works a little harder and gets a good endorsement deal with a mid-range or high-end luxury brand, it could probably be promoted to a top-tier brand.
"The idea is good, but you'd better not let the director and investors know that you did it."
Gu Yun handed the phone back to Chen Momo and stretched: "Otherwise, even if Wang Hedi doesn't get the male lead role, the director wouldn't give it to him even if he gave it to a dog."
"That's true~"
Chen Momo packed her things, preparing to get off the plane: "If I had to be treated so disgustingly, I wouldn't choose him."
As soon as he got off the plane, Gu Yun saw Meng Ziyi's agent, Han Tiantian, a reliable older sister whose work ethic was as solid as her physique.
Hmm—that's how Meng Ziyi described Han Tiantian to Gu Yun.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. If an agent can keep Meng Ziyi's big mouth under control, then the agent must be reliable!
Meng Ziyi had shown Gu Yun a photo of Han Tiantian, so he recognized her immediately.
"Sister Sweetie."
Gu Yun carried his suitcase and walked towards Han Tiantian's car, greeting her with a smile as he went.
"Hello, Teacher Gu."
Han Tiantian smiled slightly. She spoke very little and was somewhat reserved, but she was very efficient in her work.
Before Gu Yun could react, they had already stuffed Gu Yun and Chen Momo's suitcases into the trunk.
Wow, she's so strong!
As she got into the car, Chen Momo whispered to Gu Yun, her face full of admiration!
The thing she wanted to do most, despite being so thin and small, was to snatch the suitcase from Gu Yun and carry it herself!
That's a bit rude of you.
Gu Yun tapped Chen Momo on the head.
The latter realized that his words might have been ambiguous, apologized to Han Tiantian, and then sat down obediently without saying a word.
"Sister Sweetie, where are we going now?"
"Let's go to the photo studio for a shoot."
Han Tiantian is very capable in both her speech and actions: "The costumes and props are all ready. After filming ends tonight, Ziyi will treat you to dinner."
"OK."
Gu Yun had no further questions.
Costumes, props, venue, and photographer have all been booked!
All I needed to do was go there myself, and I must say, things went really smoothly, just like Huang Ming's style.
"I want to be a manager like Sister Sweetie when I grow up!"
After holding it in for a long time, Chen Momo finally couldn't help but speak her mind.
Han Tiantian, who was driving in the front seat, was taken aback at first, then glanced at Chen Momo through the rearview mirror and smiled, "That day will come. Good luck."
"I will! Sweetie!"
Chen Momo climbed up the pole, peeked her head out from the front row, and grinned, "Can I add you on WeChat, Sister Tiantian?"
"Can."
"Hehe, thank you, Sister Sweetie!"
When Chen Momo actually got the WeChat message, Gu Yun pulled her back: "Sit still, Sister Tian is driving. What if something happens?"
"So this is the place!"
Upon arriving at the photo studio, Gu Yun suddenly realized that his Pepsi GG photo was taken here.
"Where's Sister Meng?"
"She's putting on makeup, Ms. Gu. I'll take you to another dressing room."
Han Tiantian led Gu Yun ahead, with Chen Momo following closely behind, holding her own camera.
As an assistant and PR person, Chen Momo planned to take some photos herself and post them on Gu's short video account.
Let's increase the boss's followers.
By the way, Chen Momo is now managing Gu Yun's Douyin account, and it's doing quite well.
Gu Yun himself only logs in occasionally to take a look; he usually uses a secondary account to browse Douyin.
"We're shooting six different looks today!"
On the way to the dressing room, Li Tiantian said, "It's all in the traditional Chinese style, so we might be a little rushed."
