A phone call and a news report made Cheng Weiliang's vacation plan come to naught.

Cheng Weiliang took a taxi to ATV, and when he pushed the door in, the small conference room was already full of important members of the crew.

Cheng Weiliang sat down next to Xu Xiaoming, the atmosphere in the conference room was a little depressing, as if there had been an argument just now, and everyone was silent at this time. Mei Xiaoqing silently pushed the newspaper in front of Cheng Weiliang.

Cheng Weiliang read the article written by this tabloid without saying a word.

“…… A popular singer, famous for singing Chinese songs, has been rumored in the circle that he is about to cooperate with TVB and personally direct a feature-length fashion drama. After many days of investigation and covert visits, the reporter of this newspaper finally learned from people familiar with the matter that a popular singer has abandoned wireless and switched to the arms of ATV, and is about to co-produce the youth campus drama script that was abandoned by wireless before. According to the news, in order to dig into the wireless corner, Asia agreed to invest millions of dollars to shoot a campus drama, and appointed a singer who had never filmed a drama as the director, and fully dominated the important affairs of the crew, including casting, finance, filming, etc. ”

“…… The whistleblower said that the entire casting process was full of shady scenes! A certain singer is a layman and an insider, and the casting is only based on personal preference, and several male and female protagonists and important supporting roles all abandon ATV's experienced mature actors, and blindly choose some newcomers with little acting experience or even no acting foundation at all. ”

“…… One heroine and four male protagonists, except for one male protagonist who is an ATV actor, the other four people, including a certain singer who starred in the lead, are all newcomers who have never starred in a TV series! A certain singer used the power of the director to brush off all the female protagonists of ATV auditioning actors, and chose another female student who had not graduated from the wireless training class. A certain singer has a close relationship with the elected heroine, and recently the two have openly entered and exited each other, which makes people wonder if there is an improper transaction?"

“…… The reporter also got another piece of breaking news, an insider of a large jewelry company said that a singer and the heroine once came to the company to ask for sponsorship, but because the sponsorship amount requested by the other party was too unrealistic, the company refused to cooperate. The reporter asked further, but the whistleblower refused to say the amount of sponsorship requested by a singer, only saying that this amount was the filming funds that the crew lacked. The reporter speculated, did ATV invest millions in a mere youth drama? Or is it really as ATV whistleblower said, a certain singer does not know how to pretend to understand, and is so happy, causing the crew's filming budget to far exceed expectations, resulting in the crew being unable to start filming for a long time?

“…… Whether it's the shady casting or the funding turmoil, our reporter will continue to track the progress of the matter. Readers and friends, pay attention to this newspaper, don't go away!"

After reading it, Cheng Weiliang wordlessly put the newspaper back on the table. This is the same gossip tabloid that scribbled my relationship with Weng Meiling last time!

This newspaper is eyeing me, isn't it? Grab a half-claw of information and guess and write it randomly. What kind of bullshit casting insider! What bullshit power trading! The most damaged thing about this matter is the reputation of himself and Zeng Huaqian, Xu Xiaoming and ATV are also implicated.

Xu Xiaoming suddenly got up from his seat, slapped his big hand on the table, and almost shouted at the people in the conference room: "Who is it? Who broke the rules to reveal the news to others?"

He stretched out his finger, and the people under the dots one by one, said sadly: "When the crew was formed, I told me not to reveal any information about the crew to the outside, why didn't anyone listen? Now that ATV has been smeared, some people are happy?"

"I know that you have worked in ATV for many years, and you all have actors you like or know well. You are angry with them, and think that outsiders have taken their place, right? Do you think that Wei Liang, as a director, doesn't understand anything, only looks at appearances, and randomly chooses a vase that can't act in some plays, right?"

"Then let me tell you, Wei Liang wrote this script, what style of this play is, and what kind of actors to choose, he knows best in his heart! Why did the heroine choose Zeng Huaqian instead of Sai Feng, that is, Wei Liang knew what the heroine should be like!"

Xu Xiaoming looked at his subordinates below with their heads bowed, and his anger still couldn't be contained.

"You celebrities became directors at a young age, so I would like to ask, who of you can write a script that is as popular as "Rogue Tycoon"? Who of you is willing to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in a play? Who of you has the ability to bring in hundreds of thousands or millions of corporate sponsorships?"

"That's right, your ears heard it right, it's hundreds of thousands! not tens of thousands!"

Xu Xiaoming's eyes skimmed over everyone, and he yelled: "Can you? Whoever can stand up, with such ability and courage, I am also willing to propose to Boss Qiu that you be the director!"

Cheng Weiliang also stood up and said, "Director Xu, some people may have made an unintentional mistake, but they just told someone casually, and they didn't expect the other party to break the news to reporters." Tabloids, for the sake of newspaper sales, there is no moderation. We should think about it, how to deal with those big newspaper reporters who come to hear the news outside?" "After all, it is the person who will work with in the future, and when you get angry, you must save some face for the people below." Cheng Weiliang made a statement to ease the scene.

Xu Xiaoming sat down again, sighed and said to Cheng Weiliang, "What is your opinion?"

Cheng Weiliang thought for a while and said: "In the past, many things in the crew were not ready, and the funds were not in place, so I wanted to keep a low profile and not let the external environment affect the filming work. Now that you can't keep a low profile, let's be high-profile. It's time to get some news out there, so that there is no room for rumors to survive! We can also take advantage of this time when the media is paying close attention to this drama to promote this drama. ”

"What do you mean......" Mei Xiaoqing asked.

"Tomorrow there will be a formal press conference to officially announce to the outside world that I am working with ATV. Announced the news of the launch of "Meteor Garden". Let the important main and supporting characters in the play all appear in makeup photos. Tomorrow, the main and supporting characters will put on the coolest poses, youthful and shining. I'll ask TAL Garment to bring over the first batch of new clothes that have been rushed out. Cheng Weiliang said slowly.

……

Cheng Weiliang and Xu Xiaoming walked out of the ATV building together.

Reporters from various newspapers, magazines, and radio stations who had been waiting under the building for a long time saw Cheng Weiliang and ATV Xu Xiaoming appearing together, and they all looked at each other, and they were ecstatic: "There is a play!"

The reporters swarmed around as if they had smelled something fishy, and surrounded the two of them in the middle. Long guns and short cannons kept coming at them, and the flash was accompanied by the "click" sound of the camera shutter and emitted a dazzling flash of light. Popular singer Cheng Weiliang and ATV production director Xu Xiaoming have already shown a lot of information just by standing together. Such a photo is absolutely valuable.

"Liang Zai, I'm a reporter from Tiantian Daily, it is rumored that you have abandoned TVB and switched to ATV, is it true?"

"Liang Zai, I'm a reporter from the Express, may I ask if you and the heroine in the play, is it a boyfriend and girlfriend relationship in reality?"

"Mr. Cheng, I am a reporter from Business Daily, it is rumored that you are making a joint venture with ATV, how much do you invest in it?"

"Ah Liang, I'm a reporter from Ming Pao Weekly, and it is rumored that you and Miss Zeng have known each other for a long time, did you let her play the leading role because of your friendship? It is rumored that she has not yet graduated from the training class. ”

"I'm a reporter from Sing Tao Daily, may I ask Mr. Cheng whether the crew of "Meteor Garden" has been invested and when is it planned to start?"

"I'm a reporter from Oriental Daily, Ah Liang, today the media broke the news that you are casting, especially the existence of black box operations and power and sex transactions in the heroine, can you express your opinion?"

Xu Xiaoming pressed his hands downward, signaling the reporters to be calm. Said: "Reporter friends, Mr. Cheng Weiliang is indeed cooperating with our ATV, we have jointly invested in "Meteor Garden", and tomorrow at 2 o'clock in the afternoon will be held at the Sheraton Hotel for the launch of the "Meteor Garden" TV series press conference, which will answer your questions in detail. ”

The reporters left unsatisfied. After sending those reporters away, Cheng Weiliang returned to ATV and rehearsed with the heroes and heroines and supporting actors gathered together, posed together, and practiced walking and positioning. Because Cheng Weiliang asked everyone to appear in the most shining character image tomorrow, everyone has been rehearsing repeatedly tonight until almost 12 o'clock in the evening.

When he got home, Cheng Weiliang first rushed to the telephone and dialed the number that he could recite every day with his eyes closed, "Hey, have you slept?"

The other end of the phone still chose to be silent, and Cheng Weiliang said to himself on the phone as usual: "It's still a minute! Today I will tell you an unlucky thing about me today, so that you will be happy." ”

……

The next day.

"Applejack, have you read today's newspaper? It says that your idol Cheng Weiliang is rampant and domineering in the crew as a big singer, and he is also a layman directing insiders, which causes the crew to lack money, and it has not been able to start up for several months of preparation. ”

"Fake, those newspapers are talking nonsense! There are also newspapers saying that Cheng Weiliang is suspected of taking advantage of the convenience of casting to oppress and seduce young actresses! Bullshit! With our brother in sunglasses today's status, if you hook your fingers casually, there are a large number of women who will automatically send them to the door, and you still need unspoken rules for little girls?"

……

"Old man, come and see, is this person in the newspaper the singer posted in his daughter's room?

"Old woman, why are you worried so much, just take care of your daughter. ”

……

"Xiao Ming, let's not look for a job, it's better to apply for the artist training class, maybe we can become a big star in the future. Look at this Cheng Weiliang, he has only been smuggled to Xiangjiang for a few months, and now that he is famous, he can be a female star on the TV station!"

"Wake up, you still want to be a star just like you do? Think about your mother's hard work, don't daydream all day. ”

……

Although Polygram Records sent people to various media outlets yesterday to make a public relations, others only promised to keep the tone down as much as possible and not to make a big deal about it. It is impossible to abandon reporting.

Therefore, at breakfast time today, many Xiangjiang citizens who are accustomed to reading morning newspapers flipped through the entertainment pages of various newspapers, and most of the newspapers reported the scandal of Cheng Weiliang on the front page.

Cheng Weiliang, the most eye-catching rookie singer in the Xiangjiang music scene today, has stolen the limelight from other singers in recent times and has become a popular target for entertainment reporters with the claim that every song in it will become a classic first Chinese album released last month.

The album named after the singer has been on the market for nearly a month, and although PolyGram has not yet announced its sales, reporters have speculated from the hot sales scenes of major video stores and other sources that it has approached the sales mark of 8 platinum 400,000 copies. What's even more surprising is that there is also news from Taipei that since Cheng Weiliang came to Taiwan to promote, the sales of that Chinese album have skyrocketed, and there are signs that the momentum has surpassed Xiangjiang's results.

The success of Cheng Weiliang's Chinese record has also greatly encouraged some musicians in Xiangjiang who like to create and sing Chinese songs, believing that Chinese songs are not dead in the Xiangjiang market, after all, ten years ago, Xiangjiang was still the world of Chinese songs and English songs.

The hot sales of the record have brought Cheng Weiliang super popularity, and the more fans pay attention to him, the more entertainment reporters will take the initiative to dig up his news. The tabloid newspaper that twice published his scandal is proof of this. If Cheng Weiliang is not from the mainland, and he is not a rising star in the music industry wearing the halo of "musical genius", which reporter will pay attention to the director of a TV series, and may unconsciously rule that a bad thing that happens from time to time in the film and television industry such as an audition actor?

It is precisely because the time of his rise is too short, and the halo on his head is too strong, which has touched the nerves of some people inside and outside the circle, but Cheng Weiliang does not know how to converge, and he is eager to enter the film and television industry, and he has to directly become a director and director.

However, Cheng Weiliang has always been cautious in his words and deeds in public, and there are no stinky problems in his private life such as frequent visits to entertainment venues and drug abuse after some artists suddenly became famous. In addition to chasing after the wind, some media simply can't find a way to attack Cheng Weiliang. Until a few days ago, the tabloid reporter overheard a table next to him talking about Cheng Weiliang in the bar, and the reporter deliberately stammered that the men and women who were very drunk took Cheng Weiliang to their company as a joke to solicit sponsorship for the TV series, and as a result, offended their boss, and was humiliated in public.

After the reporter got this important information, through a relationship, he secretly contacted an actress who failed to audition on ATV. Under the guidance of reporters, the actress vomited bitterness, complaining that the new director didn't understand anything at all, and he was very big! She actually didn't want ATV's old qualified actors and actresses, but found a few newcomers from outside who had no acting foundation and needed ATV's temporary special training to be the heroes and heroines, which simply betrayed Xu Xiaoming's trust and ruined ATV's money!

learned from the actress that after the heroine candidate was intimate with Cheng Weiliang's behavior, the reporter made up a picture of Cheng Weiliang taking advantage of his power and unsubtly ruling an ignorant girl to ATV as the heroine. After refining the news that the actress heard from her friends, she came to the conclusion that Cheng Weiliang had a lot of power in the crew, but he was not professional enough, and he was so happy that the crew overspent the budget and needed to go to a large company to raise the sponsorship.

In the absence of photographic evidence, the tabloid reporters only relied on the oral account of the so-called whistleblower, plus their own speculation, and wrote a thousand-word article on the scandal of the big singer.

There is no evidence, but it still makes readers who like celebrity gossip look at it with relish. Didn't other reporters have an insider's oral revelations, it must be true. If you hadn't taken advantage of other girls, how could you bring a girl to ATV to be the heroine for no reason? ATV has actresses! )
