Chapter 3: Wu Tong and his people
Sure enough, the sound of the piano in the middle of the night in Zhou Zhenan generated a lot of heat. Topics such as Zhou Zhenan's tribute to Chopin, Zhou Zhenan's piano, and Zhou Zhenan's studies have occupied a place on the hot search list.
The comments are mostly compliments, to say that I have been in the entertainment industry for two years, and I have seen a large number of rainbow farts and tearing quotes from various families. It's already possible to get to the point where it's not weird. Occasionally, there were a few black words such as "Zhou Zhenanzi is better than Chopin", "My brother is better than Chopin", "Who is Chopin", and I quickly dealt with them.
I asked Gu Liang to sort out the more valuable feedback from fans, and I was going to let Zhou Zhenan pick a time to do a live broadcast, which can be regarded as a warm-up for the new album.
Gu Liang took Wu Tong to my office and discussed cooperation with him. I'm quite bullish on this young newcomer.
As soon as Wu Tong entered the door, I wanted to sigh that he seemed to be born to eat this bowl of rice. With a height of 182, he has the feeling of an idol drama without a sense of excessive oppression, without makeup, and his bangs are scattered in front of his forehead at will, which is already handsome without carving. The eyes flowed, shining, with the ignorance of youth and the ambition of a man. You can't define him by a milk dog or a wolf dog or any adjective, he's a piece of jade, a good canvas, and that's a quality that's very rare for an actor.
"Do you want to be popular, or do you want to act?" I asked him first.
"Can't you have both?" he asked me rhetorically.
I didn't get angry with him for being young and vigorous, and said slowly: "It depends on whether you want to be an idol or an actor." If you want to be an idol, start a live broadcast first and then go on a variety show, take a few assembly line youth idol films, online dramas are good, and then package them a little. You'll be on fire. But you can find as many idols as you want every year. ”
He didn't seem to be interested in the path of idols, so he made a gesture of listening carefully. I continued: "It takes a long time to be an actor, and the opportunity is also very rare, but with your talent and our company's resources, you can become a second-tier in four years. Because there are very few young pure actors in this circle now, you say yes. But how not to become an idol after becoming famous is a matter of your own choice. And in terms of returns, it's clear that idols earn more generously. ”
Then I leaned back in my chair and waited for him to choose, and he didn't seem to hesitate for long: "I can wait." "So I understand why he hasn't been on fire until now.
Because he's waiting. Wait for someone who understands him.
In today's companies, there are few children with superior appearance conditions who can be slowly polished, and most of them are cashed out while they are hot and then stagnate. Especially when he is in such a company that mainly sings and dances idols.
Then I can only say that he is talented and lucky at the same time, because I happen to be a person who doesn't mind waiting, and I have also sharpened a sword for six years.
"Well, then, I'll give you a test first. In the final exam of this semester, I require you to reach the top three in all majors and the first in your body and lines. If you do, we'll have today's conversation, and if not, please obey my arrangement. "I handed him the contract.
He didn't hesitate to sign his name, one stroke at a time, it can only be regarded as neat, and of course it is not qualified as a signature. "Let's go back and practice signing by the way. ”
He bowed his head and strode out, his slender legs Rao I am used to seeing artists, and I feel excited. He is confident, as a 20-year-old boy. That's probably one of the reasons why I'm bullish on him.
"Gu Liang, when is the Li Mo I dated. "I asked, about Zhou Zhenan, in the end, I couldn't get around her.
"Four o'clock in the afternoon, stars coffee downstairs in the company. Two and a half hours to go. Gu Liang replied quickly, the young man is willing to work hard, and his brain is not bad. I quickly adapted to my work style and was willing to endure hardships. I appreciate that.
I nodded and waved, and he went to pick up the takeaway. I looked out the window at the scenery and gradually fell into deep thought.
I was amazed when I first met Li Mo, it was six years ago when Zhou Zhenan and I were shopping, he was an artist, so he could only be fully armed, we could only pick a place with few people to walk around at will, and we couldn't have any too intimate actions. Even if he himself told me that he didn't feel very popular, he had to be subject to a lot of restrictions. But even then we are happy.
We were still talking and laughing that day, and suddenly Zhou Zhenan stopped, like a bad student who met the head teacher. He lowered his voice and said, "Eh, my agent is here." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and I saw a short-haired, capable woman getting out of the back seat of a silver SUV on the side of the road. walked straight past us, then stopped in front of Zhou Zhenan, and said, "Nannan, it's time to go back, there is shooting at night." Then he turned to look at me and smiled, quite gentlely: "This is Xiaoliu, Nannan often mentions you." "I don't know what to do, because this is the person who determines almost all aspects of Zhou's life and work. She smiled at me, looking gentle, so I smiled too, and really regarded her as a big sister, thinking that she was doing everything for the good of Zhou Zhenan, and wanted to be as capable as her.
Later, Li Mo took me to the backstage of many Zhou Zhenan, and thanks to her, I became more and more aware of the real gap between myself and my boyfriend who had a good relationship, and I became more and more sober. Until the night I left Zhou Zhenan's house and sat on a bench crying. I remembered that when she first laughed, she didn't have me in her eyes. Kindness is just a means, and she does have the original intention of being good for Zhou Zhenan, she has never attacked me, but my existence is a mistake in itself.
At that time, I was very aggrieved, but I really had no shame to face it, so I had to leave. And when I'm in the same position as her, all I can say is that I'm going to make the same choice. And now I'm just thinking about how to do it better.
Li Mo is a veteran of the prosperous world, although she has never brought a head artist, but it is common for the company to hand over three or four A-level artists to her. Therefore, she also has abundant resources in her hands, even if there is no top-level announcement, they are all of the highest quality. Now she wants to take a back seat because of childbirth, even if it's only temporary, this opportunity should not be missed. I am bound to get the resources in her hands. She still has an artist Si Qian in her hand who is equivalent to Zhou Zhenan's coffee position, and I heard that she wants to transform into an actor recently.
Si Qian, who is slightly older than Zhou Zhenan, is indeed something that he has to start thinking about. There are also rumors in the industry that Si Qian's debut is to be an actor as his goal. In that case, there is an entry point for things.
When it comes to idol cultivation, maybe I'm not as good as her, but in the gathering of actors, I can bring out the youngest actor in history. I naturally have my way. Rather than starting from scratch, as soon as I entered the industry, I focused on how to make second- and third-tier artists move upward. Because my ultimate goal is to catch up with Zhou Zhenan and reach the top with him.
Si Qian and Zhou Zhenan debuted at the same time, and the coffee position is equal, and now Li Mo and I have the hole cards that the other party wants at the same time, it depends on who is higher.
Perhaps, it will be a mutually beneficial combination. Perhaps, it will be a battle to the death. Who knows?
I gradually withdrew my consciousness from the past and looked out the window at the white clouds in the sky. Oh, it's a rare good weather.
