Seeing that Luo Lin had taken the takeaway, Brother Liang said happily, “Do you know that between the brands for the two commercials, one is a big beverage company and one is a popular brand for lipsticks? They don’t need a spokesperson at all, but they think highly of you and insist on signing you.” Luo Lin smiled. “Help me coordinate it, then. I also want to see the final cut.”
“No problem. Hurry up and eat.”
At the same time, Zhang Zhewen also received some interviews and endorsements.
However, in terms of quantity, it was only two-thirds of Luo Lin’s. Comparatively, the quality was also lower.
Zheng Mengwei had assigned him a team of dozens of people, but they were not of much use at the moment.
“This is all the interviews and endorsements Luo Lin has done and will be taking up. Look, there are many more,” Han Tian said.
Sitting in front of Han Tian, Zhang Zhewen still couldn’t figure out why he received so few invitations compared to Luo Lin.
As for how Han Tian got her hands on such trade secrets, Zhang Zhewen did not ask further. But he knew that she must have her own methods.
Zhang Zhewen’s manager, Xiao Yu, said, “Our publicity efforts in the early stages were enough. Perhaps there’s a problem with the direction of publicity, causing us to be in this situation.”
“If you need more publicity, you can apply at any time.” Among the group of artistes signed by Han Tian and Zheng Mengwei, only Zhang Zhewen had some influence. Thus, they naturally wouldn’t miss such an opportunity. “In terms of strategy, you have to grasp the direction of the wind. If we fail the first time, we have to immediately change our strategy and carry out another round of publicity. We can’t waste precious time and let Luo Lin steal the limelight.”
After coming out of Han Tian’s office, Xiao Yu could not understand the audience at all. “A lot of Baili Tang’s scenes have been deleted. In the first ten episodes, he only appeared a fraction of the time. What do these audience members like about him?”
“Can you cut the rest of his scenes?” Zhang Zhewen asked.
“I’ve asked the director and editor. They can’t delete any more. Most of the time, he’s with Murong Guang. He doesn’t have many individual scenes to begin with. They can’t guarantee the completeness of the story if they delete those scenes.
“Then we’ll delete some more in the last few episodes. At that time, the story will be basically complete. Even if we delete some, everyone can just imagine the rest.” For his own benefit, Zhang Zhewen did not hesitate to sacrifice the interests of the entire work.
He was the male lead!
Back then, he didn’t audition at all and directly got the main lead role in Tianhe Home. Whether it was the producers or the investors, they were all on his side.
Except for the executive director and the stylists, who were not biased, the rest of the crew knew that he was the most important person in the production team.
Back then, Luo Lin was able to get this role not only because of his good acting skills and good audition attitude, but also because Zhang Zhewen and the producers felt that he didn’t have any background. Him being the second male lead wouldn’t affect the male lead’s popularity.
Now…
The situation was completely different from expected.
Soon, Xiao Yu urgently contacted the producer and editor to tamper with the last few episodes.
But that was something that would only take effect in the future.
They still had to think of a way to remedy the current situation.
Xiao Yu counted with his fingers at Zhang Zhewen. “We’ve used all the methods we needed to do. We’ve publicized the TV shows you acted in before, and we’ve also gotten your fanclub to guide the fans. They said that Luo Lin improved so much this time because of your help. As a senior, you’ve always been dedicated to teaching and guiding him. Many fans of the TV show fell for this and became your fans too. Previously, there were rumors about Luo Lin saying that his acting skills were not good and his eyesight was bad. We also dug up his private life, but there’s nothing wrong with it. We couldn’t dig out anything..
“He’s a grown man, but he’s never been in a relationship before. He doesn’t have a girlfriend, and he doesn’t show any negative emotions?” Zhang Zhewen was in disbelief. “Is he still a man?”
There was no need to talk about him. He had been in a relationship more than ten times, not to mention those who had yet to confirm their relationship with him and the women who he had only dated a few times before he fell out with them.
He had seen many others like him in the industry. It was extremely difficult to stay clean.
Xiao Yu was put in a difficult position. “I’ve asked the paparazzi and reporters. Whether it’s his Weibo or WeChat, we’ve dug up all the content on various social platforms. There are indeed no outlandish comments or actions. We’ve read through every word he’s ever said and written. There’s nothing.”
During the filming, Zhang Zhewen didn’t know much about Luo Lin. Their personalities and habits were worlds apart. They didn’t even stay in the same hotel. Now that he thought about it, he didn’t have any personal relationship with Luo Lin except during the filming.
He couldn’t dig out anything from his mind about Luo Lin.
“I don’t care. Try again,” Zhang Zhewen said to Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu had been friends with him for many years. He listened to him and took good care of him. Their interests had long been tied together. Since Zhang Zhewen had said so, Xiao Yu would definitely carry out the order.
“Then you should prepare for tomorrow’s interview.”
“Got it,” Zhang Zhewen said as he took out his cell phone. “Remember to remind me. I’ll be playing games.”
He was keen on all kinds of fun games. As soon as he had time, he would play a lot.
Xiao Yu reminded him, “Remember to sleep early. Otherwise, your face will be swollen when you go out tomorrow.”
“I know, I know!”
Overnight, three trending topics about Luo Lin appeared on Weibo.
The first article criticized his acting skills with the hashtag #Luo Lin Can’t Keep Up#. The author used a scene between him and Zhang Zhewen. In the scene, Murong Guang was assassinated and seriously injured. Not only did Baili Tang, who kept saying that he was his good brother, not notice his expression, but he also acted as if nothing had happened. He discussed official documents with him and only left late at night. There was no look of concern in his eyes.
In the second article, there was a photo of him and a middle-aged woman supporting each other. It was rumored that this rich woman was the one who fought for resources for him.
In the third article, it was said that he didn’t know how to be grateful. Luo Lin received tips and guidance from Zhang Zhewei, but he didn’t mention anything about it after he became famous. As a D-list celebrity, Luo Lin had never had any acting skills. If it weren’t for an experienced senior like Zhang Zhewen who gave him pointers on set, he wouldn’t have been able to act as Baili Tang so wonderfully.
A total of three topics were trending.
Luo Lin had only been famous for less than half a month. Although he had many fans, their understanding of him was still very limited. Seeing such a large-scale scandal, some people stopped being fans.
[It’s just a drama. Why are there so many things going on? I’m tired!]
[That’s right. I don’t understand the entertainment industry now..]
