Chapter 003: Counterattack of Popularity

The rehearsal in the afternoon went well.

The so-called live show seems to be played on the spot, but in fact, everyone has an outline of their lines. Follow the lines and play a few more sentences on the spot.

At half past five, the rehearsal ended, and everyone went to put on makeup and eat.

Chen Shuting's agent, Lao Xie, took the opportunity to come to his side and said some comforting words to him, telling him to behave well.

"I know, Brother Xie, don't worry, I can't make a mistake here." Chen Shuting patted his chest and promised.

"If something happens, don't panic. Meng Qiran used to be a host, she is very adaptable, you look at her eyes and act. Lao Xie told again.

Chen Shuting glanced at Meng Qiran not far away, she was whispering to her agent, she was quiet and elegant, her black hair was draped over her shoulders, and her snow-white face was extraordinarily delicate and delicate.

"She looks quite young, she has been a model and a host? It's a lot of experience. Chen Shuting said.

"People debuted early, and they are willing to endure hardships." Lao Xie said, and then patted Chen Shuting on the shoulder hard, telling him to hurry up and go to dinner, and then enter the dressing room early.

When everyone was in the dressing room, Director Gu came in.

Director Gu took the opportunity to tell him that there was only one central idea, that is, don't make a mistake: "It's the first time for our company to hold such a big live show, and we must show an attitude." Attitude is the embodiment of our ability, and everyone must take it seriously. ”

"Director rest assured"

"The director turned the tide, how could he go wrong?"

"Director, rest assured, we are all professionals."

Everyone answered lively, but they didn't think so. If the live broadcast goes wrong, it is the director's incompetence, what does it have to do with these stars? All they need to do is interact with their fans.

The company is held accountable, and Director Gu is also responsible for it, and he will not settle the accounts on the stars. For a company as large as Ruitang, the accountability system is very clear.

Director Gu supervised such a big live broadcast event for the first time, and he didn't know the bottom of his heart, holding the actors and wanting them to share the burden.

These actors, all of whom have been in the company for two or three years, although they look young, they are better than monkeys, how can they be fooled?

Chen Shuting also dealt with it casually.

Director Gu walked to Chen Shuting's side, smiled and said to Chen Shuting: "Ah Ting, it's been a hard afternoon!" Please do it at night, don't smash Lao Gu's job, ah! ”

Someone in the dressing room pursed their lips and snickered.

It seems that the director is not at ease, only Chen Shuting. With Chen Shuting here, it's no wonder if he doesn't make a mistake, an event as big as a New Year's Eve party, Chen Shuting still makes trouble regardless of his identity.

A small live show, expecting Chen Shuting not to make a mess, is simply whimsical.

"Director, don't worry, Ah Ting is my partner, I'm looking at him!" Before Chen Shuting could speak, Meng Qiran, who was sitting on the makeup chair next to Chen Shuting, answered with a sweet voice.

Meng Qiran felt that no matter how Chen Shuting answered, she would not be decent, so she simply helped.

When she opened her mouth to speak, it was also a gesture.

"That's a good feeling!" Director Gu really didn't say anything anymore, gave Meng Qiran a lot of face, and left before putting on makeup, and went to work on his business.

"Thank you." Chen Shuting turned his head and said to Meng Qiran.

"It's nothing, Director Gu is a very careful person, so he told those words plainly." Meng Qiran said.

Meng Qiran was about to say a few more words, but her agent, Miss Guo, was already coughing hard, and Meng Qiran was not allowed to continue.

Meng Qiran smiled.

She was rehearsed with makeup today, so she doesn't need to reapply it now, just touch up a little makeup. Soon, Meng Qiran's makeup was over, and she left the dressing room first and went to the lounge to wait.

There was no one in the lounge, Meng Qiran was there, and the others didn't put on makeup.

As soon as she sat down, Miss Guo, the agent who followed up, began to talk about her: "Qiran, you are too warm-hearted!" Everyone knows what kind of person Chen Shuting is. His actions are simply terrible, and whoever is close to him will be burdened by him! It's not easy for you to have today, so why be polite to him? ”

"He's fine." Meng Qiran raised her snow-white and delicate wrist and gently stroked her bangs. Her bangs became a small fan shape after her own teasing, connecting with her thick eyelashes.

"How's the other?" Miss Guo was dumbfounded.

"Hmm." Meng Qiran bowed, "In our circle, there are few people as direct as him. Everyone has their own advantages, although he is reckless, he has one thing to say, and he is not untouchable. Besides, he started very high, and he didn't experience the darkness in the circle when he made his debut with the stars, so he didn't know much about it, and if he was simple, I was quite envious of him. ”

Miss Guo was stunned.

Meng Qiran smiled, took out her mobile phone to play, and didn't say anything to Miss Guo anymore.

Miss Guo sighed.

Then, one after another, people came in with makeup, found a place to sit with each other, and said some polite words.

"Did Jiang Zhen and Meng Qiran have a holiday?" In the corner of the lounge, Zhu Wenxi, the second female actor of "Prosecutor's Sweetheart", quietly bit her ears with her female assistant.

Jiang Zhen is the heroine of this drama, and she is the heroine who was evaluated as "ugly" by Chen Shuting's original owner.

Jiang Zhen is indeed not beautiful, but he is not ugly. Jiang Zhen's temperament is very good, her acting skills are in place, and she also has an eye for picking scripts, and in the past two years, she has been the heroine of popular TV series during the winter vacation and summer vacation.

Besides, dog-blood romance dramas are all female audiences, and the heroines who are too beautiful make young audiences feel threatened and have a weak sense of substitution. Therefore, the posture is medium to high, which is the most suitable.

"On the meager and forum, Meng Qiran's limelight overshadowed Jiang Zhen, and at the last celebration banquet, the boss specially praised Meng Qiran, which made Jiang Zhen very uncomfortable." Zhu Wenxi's female assistant told her.

Zhu Wenxi didn't know these things, she was riddled with scandals in the winter of last year, and there was even a scandal of meddling in other people's marriages and being a third party, the company asked her to rest for a while, and she went out on vacation and came back not long ago.

Zhu Wenxi played the heroine's vicious White Lotus best friend in "Prosecutor's Sweetheart", and she must have been scolded by fans, she didn't expect this drama to bring her any popularity, so she didn't pay much attention to the news of this drama.

But Zhu Wenxi was very sensitive, and as soon as she came in, she felt that the atmosphere between Jiang Zhen and Meng Qiran was very tense.

"Meng Qiran's limelight overshadows the heroine?" Zhu Wenxi listened to the female assistant's words and felt incredible.

Meng Qiran plays the heroine's sister, 50 episodes of TV series, and her scenes add up to less than three hours. Her character is smart and capable, but also shrewd, and she is very loyal to the heroine, but she has suffered many times because of the heroine's aura of the Virgin, and finally died tragically, and the audience feels very sorry for her.

Meng Qiran's popularity suddenly skyrocketed, which can be described as a counterattack, and the limelight is stronger than that of the heroine, only lower than that of the male protagonist. Meng Qiran is more beautiful than Jiang Zhen, and the limelight is even higher, it is simply shit luck.

Jiang Zhen was very unhappy.

Chen Shuting had just walked in, and there was a sudden silence in the lounge, and everyone didn't want to deal with him.

People in the entertainment industry cherish their reputation, and public quarrels and fights will affect popularity and cause adverse effects. Popularity is opportunity and money, so everyone respects Chen Shuting, a person who doesn't know what to call him.

Only Meng Qiran beckoned to Chen Shuting: "Ah Ting, this way"

Chen Shuting sat next to Meng Qiran.

Zhu Wenxi, who was not far away, saw this scene and was so surprised that his jaw dropped. She covered her mouth and leaned into her assistant's ear and asked, "Did Meng Qiran and Chen Shuting stir up an affair?" ”

The surprise of the female assistant was no less than that of Zhu Wenxi.

"I haven't heard of it." The female assistant said, "It's impossible, Meng Qiran has just become popular, she pulled Chen Shuting to hype, isn't she killing herself?" ”

Zhu Wenxi thinks it's right.

Chen Shuting was a little fresh meat that became popular last year, and then no works came out, and this year's popularity has dropped by four-fifths. A small star like him who came out of the draft has no follow-up high-quality works, and the shelf life is the shortest, and Chen Shuting is notorious, and the company does not want to see him.

There is no doubt that Chen Shuting has capital and is very handsome, and the company has not squeezed out his value, so he can't bear to hide him.

Meng Qiran is different. She has been in the entertainment industry for five or six years, and she has become popular step by step. She has just improved a little this year, and if she has a scandal, it will not be good for her future.

If Meng Qiran and the actor Zhu Chengtong stir up a scandal, Zhu Wenxi can understand.

With Chen Shuting?

Meng Qiran is crazy!

"Although we don't have many lines, we have to be on stage for two and a half hours." Meng Qiran complained to Chen Shuting, "I'm really afraid I won't be able to bear it." ”

Today is the live show of the crew, and everyone is on stage together. Although they are not the protagonists and have no opportunity to perform, they cannot leave the scene, and they can't leave until the end of the scene.

"It's okay, there is a chair to sit on, and your legs won't be sore." Chen Shuting said.

When they come on stage, the organizers will arrange a few high chairs to sit on. When the creators are not performing, they can sit down.

Chen Shuting and Meng Qiran didn't perform much, so they should sit for an hour or two.

"It's not that I'm afraid of sore legs, I'm afraid that my face will be sore, so I'm going to keep it like this" Meng Qiran made a standard smile expression and showed it to Chen Shuting.

Even if you don't perform, you have to smile all the time. If you are photographed by reporters or fans with your unsmiling face, they will think that you have a conflict with which creator, and then quickly make up a lawsuit.

Therefore, the people who stand by them should always have a faint smile.

It's actually very tiring.

Chen Shuting was amused by her.

"They still have singing and dancing, and they are more tired." Chen Shuting comforted Meng Qiran, "Let's just smile." ”

Then, he also put on a standard smiling face and showed it to Meng Qiran.

Meng Qiran also laughed.

As the two of them were talking, it was time.

The host's voice was transmitted through the curtain of the stage to the back.

Today is a male host, the host of the White Fox Video Entertainment program, with a calm and humorous style.

After the host's speech ended, the creators of "Prosecutor's Sweetheart" took the stage one by one.

The stage is full of flowers, the lights are scorching, and the bright light shines on the beautiful faces, or youthful and lively, or smiling.

The actor came to the stage first, and bursts of shouts broke out outside: "Zhu Chengtong, Zhu Chengtong, Zhu Chengtong!" ”

There is also "We love you", "We are sincere", etc., there is a lot of noise.

Then there is the heroine Jiang Zhen.

The cheers outside suddenly dropped by two-thirds, and there were a few sparse cheers.

Then there are the second females, the second males, etc., and the cheers are even more rare.

"The fans who came today are all running for Zhu Chengtong" Chen Shuting remembered what Lao Xie told him.

Sure enough, those who came today are all fans of Zhu Chengtong.

After seven or eight people, it was finally Chen Shuting's turn.

As soon as he took the stage, there was almost no shouting. Those who are here today are not only fans of Zhu Chengtong, but also fans of the drama "Prosecutor's Sweetheart". And Chen Shuting plays a particularly bad little villain in this play, even if there are his fans, he is ashamed to shout out.

He had just walked to his place on the stage, and then suddenly the audience erupted in great cheers: "Meng Qiran, Meng Qiran"

This call is no less than that of Zhu Chengtong.

"Meng Qiran is very popular." Chen Shuting thought and looked back at Meng Qiran.

Meng Qiran and Shi Shiran walked onto the stage, with a graceful demeanor and a graceful gesture. The cheers in the audience continued for a long time, and the atmosphere on and off the stage was at its peak.

Chen Shuting looked at the audience again, and the fans were holding light signs in their hands, with Zhu Chengtong's name on them, Meng Qiran's name, and others, one or two at most, but there was no Chen Shuting.

"It's all your own death." Chen Shuting said to himself. If it weren't for the original owner's own death, his popularity wouldn't have fallen so quickly.

When everyone is on stage, the host takes turns to greet everyone to the audience.

When it came to Chen Shuting, he said his lines in accordance with the script and in a decent manner: "Hello everyone, I am Chen Shuting, the actor of Zhang Haotian in "Prosecutor's Sweetheart", although I am the worst, but also the most handsome. ”

The audience erupted in laughter.

The host also teased Chen Shuting a few words: "Shuting is very confident." However, when it comes to being the most handsome, I'm not convinced, everyone says it's Shuting handsome, or am I handsome? ”

This is also a set up interactive session.

was afraid that the fans' answers would not conform to the script, so the female creators on the stage helped and guided the fans to answer: "Shuting is handsome!" ”

Sure enough, the fans immediately ridiculed the host: "Shuting is handsome." ”

The host pretended to be angry and said to the fans at the scene: "I don't love you anymore!" ”

The middle-aged male host is cute, with a great sense of contrast, and the response is excellent, which attracted bursts of applause and laughter from the scene.

Then Chen Shuting bowed, and his topic was over.

The host's microphone slid onto Meng Qiran.

Meng Qiran is one of the focuses.

Meng Qiran followed the script and also played a few funny words by herself, which caused the audience to laugh.

The supporter asked some more questions about the plot, and everyone seemed to answer randomly, but they were actually arranged.

Chen Shuting didn't need to answer, he just kept smiling.

The session lasted for 10 minutes.

Twenty minutes have also passed in the total time of the live show.

So far, each of the leading actors has played well, even a bit beyond the level, and it is smoother than when they rehearsed, and Director Gu is very satisfied.

"We have already met the creators of "Prosecutor's Sweetheart", our handsome Chengtong, and the cute and beautiful Qiran, etc., and we have also received their greetings and blessings to everyone.

So, do we want to play something special next? The host adjusted the atmosphere and asked the audience present and the audience before the live broadcast.

"Yes!" The voices of fans resounded through the dome of the auditorium.
