Chapter 19: Cousin Cheng, give me a chance
Since we have taken the initiative to undertake the work of publicity, we must try to do our best.
Just inviting a Korean program team to come over to shoot a variety show is obviously not enough to play a decisive role. Therefore, in order to better complete the task, Lin Zhicheng also made other preparations under the advice of everyone.
For example, open Weibo to promote to the majority of netizens through the most popular way nowadays.
However, he has been squatting at home as an otaku before, and he doesn't like to communicate with the outside world very much, and naturally he has not used those software that is specially used to interact with strangers, so in order to ensure that there are no mistakes in the process of completing the task, Lin Zhicheng first applied for a personal account for himself, and planned to practice before the official job.
On Lin Zhicheng's current account, only seven 'fans' clicked to follow.
These seven 'fans' are divided into three types, the first is the so-called 'dead number', there are two in total. They belong to Cao Aiguo and Lin Jinzhi respectively. Although the two elders will also glance at each other from time to time, but, because they are not good at typing, these two accounts have never replied.
There are also three 'passers-by', the kind of passers-by who don't know when they clicked on the follow, and they don't know when they will unfollow.
Among the seven fan accounts, only two are active, and their owners are sisters Cao Lingling and Cao Lili. In the words of the two sisters, 'For the sake of you buying us a new phone, we'll be merciful and be your first fan.'"
Then, the photos that Lin Zhicheng sent when he went to South Korea a few days ago were seen by the two sisters.
As young people, the two sisters will be more or less exposed to some of the most popular elements of the moment, among which those long-legged OPPA are naturally indispensable. Although they are not like those fans with brain problems, they will forget who they are because of long-legged OPPA, but in the end, they are still at the age of romance, they are still more or less attracted by Hallyu elements and are interested in news in the Korean entertainment industry.
Among the photos posted by Lin Zhicheng, in addition to some food, there are also photos of him and Luo Yingshi.
If it were replaced by other PDs, the two sisters might not be recognizable, after all, PD's main job is behind the scenes, and they basically won't show their faces in front of the camera. Only Luo Yingshi is different, in the Korean entertainment industry, there is probably only a PD like him who often shows his face in front of the camera.
Because I like Winner, I watched "New Journey to the West" with Mino's participation in the last season, and by the way, I met Luo Yingshi, who appeared in the camera many times, and knew that he was a big-name variety show PD active in the Korean TV circle, and then, combined with the titles that Lin Zhicheng matched to the photos, the smart Cao Lili immediately made a judgment and probably guessed the purpose of Lin Zhicheng's trip to South Korea.
Although I haven't guessed which program I want to work with, no matter which program it is, the participation of artists is indispensable, isn't it?
The idea of watching Korean artists, the curiosity about the behind-the-scenes work, and the yearning for the Nalan Islands themselves, several ideas were entangled, and finally persuaded Cao Lili, who had a nickname for Xiaojiao, to let her call Lin Zhicheng across the ocean.
"You said you want to come over and have a look?" Hearing the expectation in Cao Lili's tone, Lin Zhicheng laughed: "I don't have an opinion, but, is the school okay?"
When I returned to China before, the two sisters had just started school, and it was only a month since then.
It's only been a few days since I went to school, and I thought about taking a leave of absence?
"It's okay, it's okay. "Since they have called Lin Zhicheng, they have obviously already thought of a reason. Cao Lili immediately explained: "Anyway, the two of us are studying in the art department, so it's very convenient to ask for leave." And we're not just here to play ....... ”
"Isn't it for fun?
"Brother~~!" seemed to be dissatisfied with Lin Zhicheng to expose his careful thoughts, Cao Lili protested coquettishly: "Can't you say something I like to hear?" ”
"Okay, okay. Lin Zhicheng changed his angle and said according to Cao Lili's meaning: "Because we are going to shoot a show here, so you want to come over to observe and intern first, so as to accumulate some experience for finding a job on campus in the future, right?"
"You're smart. That's right, that's it. "Because it was a video call, Lin Zhicheng clearly saw the little expression on Cao Lili's face.
Since the cousin made a request, of course the cousin can't refuse.
As for whether the school has any opinions, whether the teacher will approve the leave, to be honest, Lin Zhicheng was just joking about Cao Lili before, and he didn't really take this matter seriously.
After all, the sisters' majors are dance and music, two majors closely related to the entertainment industry.
As we all know, it is not so easy to get out in the entertainment industry, even if you are from a professional class, there are many people who have not been able to make a name for themselves. To put it bluntly, if you really want to succeed, in addition to the knowledge and skills you learned in school, it depends more on whether you have opportunities or background.
In the past, he didn't have that ability, he couldn't provide the sisters with opportunities to work and study, and he couldn't be their backing, Lin Zhicheng could only do his best to provide some convenience for their life in the magic capital. And now, the situation is different, with resources in hand, Lin Zhicheng will no longer leave the two sisters alone, and let them break out in the circle simply by relying on their own personal abilities.
To put it bluntly, even if Cao Lili didn't call this time, in the future, Lin Zhicheng will find a suitable time, or personally invest in the sisters, or find a relationship to back them up, so that they can better use their professional knowledge and get better development in the entertainment industry.
"Okay, I'll say hello to your school when I get back. Under Cao Lili's water mill kung fu, Lin Zhicheng not only welcomed the arrival of the two sisters, but also agreed to help them ask for leave from the school: "By the way, there are visas." Although I can let you pass the application in advance, some procedures still have to be run by yourself, remember to take more time to come out. ”
"Got it, got it....... ”
After ending the call with the sisters, Lin Zhicheng unconsciously imagined the scene after they came to the Nalan Islands, and when he thought that he was finally not alone here, a sense of anticipation quietly surged in his heart.
"That's, Sincerity XI. Just when Lin Zhicheng was distracted, Luo Yingshi's voice came from behind him.
"Luo PD. Turning around, Lin Zhicheng asked with a smile: "How is it, are you all settled?
Luo Yingshi's expression was a little tangled, and after hesitating for a few seconds, he still decided to say it: "The house is indeed very good, thank you." However, because of our work, we may have to live up to your kindness. ”
"Huh?" I didn't expect this answer, Lin Zhicheng was very surprised: "What's wrong?
"That's ....... Luo Yingshi explained.
It turned out that according to the predetermined plan, the filming location this time would be arranged on the main island, that is, Nalan Island. After all, the development is better there, both the population settled on the island and the number of tourists who come to visit.
After all, it's a restaurant that needs to be open to the public, and it can't be opened in a place where there are no people, right?
In this way, there is a problem that has to be paid attention to - Lin Zhicheng's island owner's mansion is not on the main island, but on the nearby Changshou Island, that is to say, when the program team goes to work every day, they must first cross the sea by boat, and then they can go to Nalan Island.
This is just the program team, if the actors come over and are arranged to stay on Longevity Island, things will become even more troublesome.
It was precisely because of the inconvenience of transportation that Luo Yingshi came up with the idea of refusing Lin Zhicheng's kindness and going to find another dormitory on Nalan Island.
"I see. Luo Yingshi's scruples were not unreasonable, Lin Zhicheng nodded and began to ponder.
After a while, Lin Zhicheng gave a suggestion: "Otherwise, during the filming, I will assign you two small boats? Don't be in a hurry to refuse, you listen to me first." I think if you have to take a boat to and from work every day, maybe it's also a highlight, you say?"
"It's ....... Thinking that the staff had to move the heavy equipment around, Luo Yingshi was still a little hesitant.
"As far as I know, Li Ruizhen himself has a ship pilot's license, right? If he were to drive the boat and take everyone to and from work every day, what happened on the road would be a bit interesting, right?" Lin Zhicheng reminded.
"Uh~. Only then did he remember that Li Ruizhen had already obtained a small ship driver's license when filming "Three Hours and Three Meals", and Luo Yingshi's expression relaxed a lot. Well, in fact, from the very beginning, one of the reasons for his rejection of Lin Zhicheng was that 'living on Changshou Island, the commute may be boring, and some highlights may be missed'.
At this moment, Luo Yingshi was already quite moved, but he still had one last scruple: "Li Ruizhen's license was tested in South Korea, can it be used here?"
"What's the matter? In this way, I will say hello to the traffic bureau, and after Li Ruizhen and them come, let him take the test as soon as possible, as long as his own skills are okay, the driver's license will be handled as soon as possible, I promise, it will definitely not take more than a day, how about it?"
"Alright then, do as you say. ”
