This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 236: 234. From Obscurity to Hundreds of Stars

  Chapter 236 234. From obscurity to hundreds of stars vying to join! Only one Wang Cheng...

  The ratings explosion of Country Life was unexpected by many people.

but…

   What many people in the circle did not expect is that the ten-hour online video version of rural life, on the online platform of Shonan Satellite TV, has such an amazing number of views.

  In less than a day, the playback volume has exceeded 100 million.

  This is a ten-hour version, not the more than one-hour version of other ordinary variety shows.

  This shows that many viewers are not just going for Wang Cheng, but actually watch the content of the show and like to watch the content, so they will watch a full ten hours of video.

  At the same time, the video broadcast volume of many programs in front of the country life has increased a lot, and the overall changes brought to the country life program group can be called earth-shaking!

Xiao Qiang got through the phone: "Oh, hello! Oh, yes, yes! The next episode of the show is about to be recorded, oh, the guest of the show? It's not yet decided...Sorry, uh...Is your artist willing to participate for free? Oh , ok, I see, I will write it down, thank you for your affirmation..."

After a few perfunctory words, Xiao Qiang hung up the phone, and said to the director Liu Jie and the assistant director: "Another person who wants to come to record a show with Wang Cheng, a first-line freshman, and he is willing to do it for free, but I will declare a notification fee of 5 million yuan to the outside world! I will delay it for the time being..."

  Liu Jie nodded lightly: "Well, don't be in a hurry! The program will be recorded tomorrow, wait for those few."

The assistant director echoed: "If they have time, they will definitely come. They are all wearing it in the circle, and they are all chasing after Wang Cheng. As long as it is Wang Cheng's program, they will find a way to go together. The last time they went to live in the country was For those who take the initiative to contact, the notification fee is still very low, which is less than half of Wang Cheng's!"

   "The four of them have a little credit for making rural life so popular."

After changing his tone, the assistant director continued: "That's right. I heard from friends at Shonan Satellite TV that they plan to adjust rural life to weekend prime time, increase production funds, and re-plan. They want to take this opportunity to establish this program as a Get up and make it a pillar program of Shonan Satellite TV."

  Liu Jie smiled: "It's not that easy, maybe just try. Not every celebrity guest has Wang Cheng's high attractiveness."

Xiao Qiang thought for a while and said: "I think it is possible to stand up and really stand up. Wang Cheng showed a completely different side in rural life from the stage, so that everyone can see what Wang Cheng is like in life." Yes. It satisfies the curiosity of a lot of fans ... This is a way that country life can invite other big names to come over and show what it looks like in life, and it can also attract a lot of audiences."

   "It is impossible to reproduce the horrible ratings of 4.5, but I think there is no problem if the ratings exceed 1!"

  After hearing this, several people were envious again.

  Shonan Satellite TV has felt like the sun is setting in the past few years, making many other TV stations feel that their opportunities have come.

  However, this time, Wang Cheng may have brought a trump card program to Shonan Satellite TV.

If the rural life can stabilize the ratings of a little more in the future, and occasionally go up to two o'clock, then it will be able to secure the prime time of Shonan Satellite TV on weekends, and it will also be able to support half of the sky of Shonan Satellite TV in the future. Shonan Satellite TV will be able to stabilize its own in at least two or three years. status and income.

   such a good thing...

  Which TV station doesn't want it?

   Several people were chatting when they saw teams of fans holding Wang Cheng signs coming to the airport one after another not far away, standing beside them quietly and politely, without blocking passers-by.

   Hundreds of people have come here now, and they are still coming here intermittently.

  The assistant director said with emotion: "Wang Cheng's itinerary was leaked again. These fans really came here spontaneously... There are still so many people. Now only Wang Cheng can do this in China."

Xiao Qiang said with a smile: "These fans want to see Wang Cheng again and again, and Wang Cheng avoids them every time, and they still persevere in finding a way to pick up the plane every time. This kind of scene is also the only one in the whole country... "

   Several people were very happy to see such a scene.

  Because, this just shows Wang Cheng's popularity and charm.

   Gave them some confidence...

   buzz buzz...

  Xiao Qiang's phone rang again, picked it up and connected again, a female voice came from the opposite side: "Hello, Xiao Dao, I'm Wen Yixiao's manager, Mo Jinhua."

coming…

  Xiao Qiang sat up straight in an instant, shocked, waved to Liu Jie and the others to signal for silence, and then smiled and said, "Oh, Sister Mo, hello, hello!"

Mo Jinhua over there said straight to the point: "Xiao Dao, I heard that your Cultural Central Plains program group has invited Wang Cheng to participate in the recording of the next program, and we Wen Yixiao just have a schedule and want to participate in this program Recording, do you still have a place?"

Xiao Qiang immediately smiled and said: "Of course there is still a place. Usually, no one pays attention to our program, so it is difficult to invite relatively famous guests. Wen Yixiao can come, of course we welcome it! It is... Sister Mo, our program group is relatively small , the production budget is limited, can Wen Yixiao's announcement fee be lowered?"

  Mo Jinhua was silent for two seconds, and then said: "Xiao Dao, the notice fee is the same as that of rural life, it cannot be lowered!"

   This is the lowest limit Mo Jinhua can accept, if it is lower, it will not be justified.

  Xiao Qiang said quickly: "No problem, just this price! Our show will be recorded tomorrow morning, when can you come over? I'll book a hotel room for you."

  Mo Jinhua: "We're going to shoot a commercial in the morning, let's go there in the afternoon, we should be able to arrive in the evening, and it won't delay tomorrow's program recording!"

  Xiao Qiang: "Okay, then it's settled."

  Mo Jinhua: "Alright, sorry for the trouble, Xiao Dao!"

  Xiao Qiang: "No trouble, no trouble!"

hang up the phone.

  Xiao Qiang looked at Liu Jie and the assistant director who were looking at him, and said excitedly: "Here we come! Sure enough, wherever there is Wang Cheng, there must be Wen Yixiao. It depends on whether the other three come or not!"

The assistant director also became excited, and said with a smile: "Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Zhu Ziqi, An Keru, if you get the four of them together, it will be exactly the same as the lineup of Country Life. I signed four of them at one time, and maybe I will spend these two days shooting commercials in Shanghai!"

Liu Jie also laughed: "That's great, Lao Xiao, Wang Cheng is here, and Wen Yixiao is also here, these are two superstars, if Han Xiao, An Keru, and Zhu Ziqi also come, it will be three A top-ranking big name. With such a lineup, the ratings are over two, so it’s not a big problem, right?”

   "I dare not expect to be the same as rural life, four o'clock, five o'clock, not three o'clock. I know the nature of your program, it is an educational program, and the schedule is not good. I want two o'clock..."

  The excited smile on Xiao Qiang's face gradually faded, and he said seriously: "Mr. Liu, I will do my best!"

  Liu Jie was about to speak...

  Xiao Qiang's phone rang again.

   Another call from the manager of a big-name star, who also wanted to participate in the recording of this episode of Cultural Central Plains, wanted to appear on the scene with Wang Cheng, and hinted that it would be free!

Xiao Qiang said a few perfunctory words again, refused, put down the phone and said helplessly: "Since the news spread that Wang Cheng is coming to record the show, I have answered hundreds of calls from agents, most of them are first-tier and second-tier managers. There are also a few super-first-line big names. They all want to catch a wave of Wang Cheng's popularity."

   "Country life is so hot!"

   Several people nodded when they heard this.

  Liu Jie looked at the time again.

Xiao Qiang's phone rang again, and when he heard the voice from the opposite side, he smiled again: "Xiao Dao, hello, I'm Han Xiao's manager, Li Jing! I heard that Wang Cheng is going to participate in your program recording, and we, Han Xiao I want to record a show with Wang Cheng, is there still room?"

  Xiao Qiang immediately said: "Of course there is still room, Han Xiao can come, we welcome it very much! That is, our small program group may have limited production funds..."

  Li Jing had expected this situation, and immediately said: "The notice fee can be reduced appropriately, just like rural life, how about it?"

  Xiao Qiang: "That's no problem, happy cooperation!"

  Li Jing: "Happy cooperation!"

hang up the phone.

  Xiao Qiang smiled at the people in the car: "Han Xiao is here too."

   Several people laughed.

   Before their smiles fell, Xiao Qiang's phone rang again.

   This time, it was Ankeru's manager calling!

   After a while...

  Zhu Ziqi's agent also called.

  Xiao Qiang agreed, and the notice fee was on par with rural life, which was the lowest price they could accept.

  If Wang Cheng hadn't been asked, their single notice fee would be more than 10 million yuan, and Wen Yixiao's price would be at least 20 million yuan!

  The program group has saved at least 30 million yuan here...

  ...

  Magic City!

  Mo Jinhua put down the phone, and said ok to Wen Yixiao who was trying on clothes over there, saying that it was done.

Yu Jinghong next to her said softly: "Now Wang Cheng has become the most sought-after partner in the industry. As far as I know, the phone calls of Zhongyuan Satellite TV have been blown up. All big-name celebrity artists who can be named want to participate in this show." program, I want to cooperate with Wang Cheng and go on TV together!"

   "The ratings of this show were only 0.1 or 0.2 before. If there is no Wang Cheng, no matter how much money you give them, they will not go."

Mo Jinhua nodded, and said with emotion: "This is the charm of Wang Cheng. Since the end of the rural satellite TV broadcast, in less than a day, Wang Cheng has gained three million fans, and the number of fans has broken through 90 million. Wen Yi Xiao has gained 2 million fans, and the number of fans is almost 70 million!"

   "Zhu Ziqi's followers increased by 6 million, Han Xiao's followers increased by 3 million, and An Keru's followers increased by 3 million! Han Xiao and An Keru are almost becoming super giants relying on Wang Cheng."

"Zhu Ziqi, who has filmed commercials with Wang Cheng, gained more fans and has strong stamina. Zhang Hanwen, who was hidden by Rubik's Cube Entertainment, both gained more than 5 million fans, and the number of fans has already exceeded 10 million. Being hidden by the snow can also increase his popularity." He is still the first."

Yu Jinghong's eyes flickered: "Yes, Wang Cheng is simply the source of popularity! Han Xiao and An Keru have gained a wave of fans this time. If they also join the Cultural Central Plains and work with Wang Cheng, the Cultural Central Plains will become popular again. Then They may really cross the threshold of 50 million fans and become super giants!"

  The two were silent for a while, thinking of this possibility, their eyes were full of shock and envy.

  They are all old fritters who have been in the industry for more than ten or twenty years. Have you ever seen such a scene this year?

   Chaoju doesn’t seem to need money, three or four at a time?

  A few years ago, but there was no one released in a year.

  After 30 years in the Chinese entertainment industry, there are only less than ten people who can be called super giants!

   This year, two super giants Wang Cheng and Wen Yixiao came out all at once. If there are two more super giants...

   It's outrageous.

  The Chinese-speaking entertainment industry seems to have suddenly become different, and it has become another look.

  When the two were chatting.

  Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru all arrived one after another. Like Wen Yixiao, they all came to shoot commercials.

  The four people are on each side, without touching each other and chatting...

  Then, Liu Xing also came over in person to meet the four newly signed spokespersons.

  Looking at the serious commercial film shot by the four people, I just hold a few posses, and then do some actions to show the shoe products...

  Liu Xing recalled Wang Cheng's experience in making commercials, and he was glad that he chose to trust Wang Cheng and give up Lao Chen's ordinary advertising plan.

  Wang Cheng's commercial MV is still attracting Hongxing continuously.

In comparison, the advertisements shot by Wen Yixiao and the others at this time are too ordinary, not much different from the advertisements shot by other people. After watching it a few times, unlike Wang Cheng's commercial MV, it attracts many people to watch it repeatedly every day.

Liu Xing stepped forward and greeted the four of them one by one. Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, and An Keru all responded politely, and then they stopped talking to Liu Xing, either busy reading, or Busy watching advertisements or looking for clothes, he didn't have the same enthusiasm that other ordinary stars had for the father of the sponsor.

  Liu Xing smiled wryly. These people all have Wang Cheng's style, and they are indifferent to him, the patron father.

   "Mr. Yu, congratulations to your company for producing such a giant as Wen Yixiao."

   Liu Xing and Yu Jinghong said with a smile.

   Among those present, the most qualified person in Yu Jinghong's circle to talk to him was one of the vice presidents of Penguin Entertainment.

Yu Jinghong said with a smile: "Congratulations, Mr. Liu's company has come back to life and made great achievements again. This time, with the addition of Wen Yixiao and the others, your brand may continue to explode, and it is very possible to surpass Ma Ning and Tayun .”

   Liu Xing shook his head and said, "I don't dare to think about it. It would be nice to be able to stabilize the current situation."

  Yu Jinghong: "Mr. Liu is being humble. I just placed an order for a pair of shoes from your company at noon today, and they have already been scheduled for delivery in a month! Your products are so popular..."

   Liu Xing smiled proudly.

   It has been one month since the product lineup.

   This is the first ever for a sports product.

  Hong Xing can be regarded as making history...

  Liu Xing: "Oh? Which pair of shoes does Mr. Yu want? What's the number? Tell me, and I'll let the factory customize a pair for you."

  Yu Jinghong shook her head hastily: "I dare not take it, I'd better wait..."

  Actually, it wasn't that she wanted to buy it, but one of her little assistants complained about it when she bought it.

   She couldn't possibly sign a favor for a pair of shoes.

  However, thinking of the popularity of this product, she is also very jealous of Wang Cheng!

  How much is the 10% share?

  Liu Xing: "That's right! I'm going to meet Wang Cheng in the provincial capital of Central Plains in the afternoon, and discuss a cooperation with Cultural Central Plains by the way. Do you want to go together?"

  Because the call to Wang Cheng could not be reached, Liu Xing had to go to see Wang Cheng in person again to discuss a cooperation.

  At the same time, another advertising fee will be sponsored by Cultural Central Plains.

  The principle that Liu Xing insists on now is that as long as Wang Cheng goes...

  Where Hongxing's products and logo will appear!

  Yu Jinghong's eyes flashed brightly, knowing that the boss Liu Xing's success was not accidental. Following in Wang Cheng's footsteps, she grasped the current source of traffic and popularity, and immediately smiled: "I don't know yet!"

  She didn't disclose Wen Yixiao's itinerary, not because it was kept secret, but because she didn't want to reveal in person that Wen Yixiao was following Wang Cheng closely.

   Liu Xing smiled, knowing the answer in his heart, but he didn't reveal it, and said with a smile: "Okay then, I'll book the tickets myself and go first!"

  Yu Jinghong: "OK..."

   After chatting casually for a while, Liu Xing told the person in charge of the advertisement again, and then left the scene, went directly to the airport, and headed for the provincial capital of the Central Plains.

  …

   And at the Central Plains Provincial Capital Airport.

  Wang Cheng and three assistants came out.

  The three assistants wanted to help carry things, but Wang Cheng refused.

  Looking at the dense crowd of one or two thousand fans coming to pick up the plane, Wang Cheng's name can be seen everywhere, and Wang Cheng didn't pay any attention to those fans. He carried his backpack, pulled the suitcase, and walked out.

   Wearing a hat, mask, and mixing in the crowd, three assistants helped him block his sight.

  So, one or two thousand people didn't find him!

but…

  There is still a group of smart people who did not go to Wang Cheng, but found Liu Jie, Xiao Qiang and others who were picked up by Zhongyuan Satellite TV, and stayed by their side.

  The moment Wang Cheng appeared.

  Xiao Qiang and Liu Jie recognized it.

   There were no three assistants to block, and the other fans who were waiting immediately recognized it.

  In an instant...

   There was a loud shout at the airport.

   "Wang Cheng..."
