Chapter 1 Don't Powder Me, No Results
Alternate Time and Space, 2017.
The office of the director of the performing arts department of Modu Xinghai Records has a solemn atmosphere.
"I won't be on the show to apologize!"
Ignoring the constant blinking hints of the agent Zhou Liping, Qi Luo gritted his teeth and stood up to the director Cheng Jianwu.
He is a newly debuted idol singer, and his only achievement is the champion of a talent show variety show "Rising Star Shining" with a rating of less than 1.5.
For this championship, Qi Luo also enjoyed fair treatment only after capital intervention.
There is nothing else, just because although his image is rated as S, now the entertainment industry is capital is king and traffic is the first.
Xinghai Records has plans to launch idol singers, so it signed Qi Luo and Xia Jibo, who was the runner-up.
And the reason why the director of the acting department was so angry was because Zi Luo ran to celebrate his friend's birthday before the song, and then he fought.
Let's fight if we fight, young people will inevitably have some small things.
But being exposed is different.
was exposed, and was also stabbed by Xia Jibo, an idol singer and runner-up "brother" who signed a contract with the company, so the situation was even more different.
"Smack!"
Suddenly.
Cheng Jianwu slapped the table violently and roared angrily: "Weibo post public relations, public apology on the show, you have to do it for me!" β
After reprimanding Qi Luo, Cheng Jianwu turned his head and glared at Xia Jibo viciously: "And you, the company hasn't helped Qi Luo with public relations, so you can't help it?" That's how you want your colleagues to die? Do you think that if the competitor goes down, you will be able to come up? β
"I'll leave it here, if this matter is not handled well, neither of you will want to sing!"
Cheng Jianwu was so angry that he wanted to hit his head.
Idol singers are glamorous in the eyes of outsiders, and they are a commodity to entertainment companies.
Qi Luo's image score is S, and his singing potential also has an A, which can be said to be a grade above Xia Jibo.
Because of this, Xia Jibo, this guy, tore off the disguise of the superficial brother when he saw Qi Luo's accident, and he spoke on Weibo to "admonish": It doesn't matter if you do something wrong, brother, we can change our mistakes.
What do you mean?
This is a clear joke for the rest of the industry!
For the sake of the company's little resources, Xia Jibo doesn't even want face!
What now?
There are two ways: one is to let Qi Luo "know that he can change his mistakes", and the other option is to support Qi Luo and spend a lot of money and energy to tell the truth of the matter to the people who eat melons.
Anyway, Qi Luo had a good reason to fight, the other party was a drunk and deliberately provoked and took the lead, he was obviously fighting back in self-defense, but unfortunately he was in the bathroom at the time, and there was no monitoring, and it will take some time for the official case to be closed.
Moreover.
Xinghai Records is a company that wants to make a profit.
To help Qi Luo rehabilitate, the money needed to spend will be lost.
Therefore, the most economical way is for Qi Luo to admit his mistake first, and the company will push him up as usual, and then use this matter to reverse publicity and other publicity in the future, and even use it as a talking point to pretend to be pitiful in variety shows.
My brother is so miserable, I would rather be wronged for the sake of my dreams, and the little girl fans still can't buy it after hearing it? The little money is coming.
It's a pity......
Cheng Jianwu looked at Qi Luo's expression of "I can't admit it", and couldn't help but feel a little liver pain.
"Oh, Mr. Cheng, you are angry, the company will first take Aluo's Weibo post to admit that it is wrong, the most important thing for us now is the work."
Qi Luo's agent Zhou Liping flattered: "As long as there are works, with Ah Luo's image and singing skills, the probability of becoming popular is extremely high." β
"Hey, with his Weibo followers who have lost 300,000 followers and 4 million zombie fans, what future does he have for posting songs?"
Xia Jibo's agent Luo Yuena said unceremoniously: "The most important thing is that Qi Luo's popularity is completely ruined now. β
"Who is corrupt? Don't think that I don't know that you paid for those drafts. β
"Oh, I don't have that much money."
"Hehe, the brother in front of the person, the knife in the back, your Xia Jibo's reputation in the circle is also stinky."
"The surname is Zhou, if you talk nonsense without evidence, I can sue you for slander."
"Is it slander, the company has a rod and scale in its heart, I don't believe that my family can still go unpunished."
"I don't believe the company will sing about violent madness."
"With the image and strength of our family Aluo, just posting a song can make the company make a lot of money, which is better than feeding the dog with resources."
Qi Luo's agent Zhou Liping and Xia Jibo's agent Luo Yuena competed against each other and quarreled in the director's office.
Cheng Jianwu had an even more headache, he couldn't help but glance at Qi Luo and Xia Jibo again, his heart was full of hesitation.
Zilo didn't want to speak.
In terms of image, he threw Xia Jibo nine streets.
In terms of singing skills, Qi Luo is also confident, and the company rated his singing skills as potential A-level.
In other words, Xia Jibo's upper limit is a traffic idol singer, but Qi Luo has the possibility of becoming a first-line power idol.
"So be it."
After thinking about it for a long time, Cheng Jianwu finally made up his mind, he looked at Qi Luo seriously and said: "Qi Luo, you accept an interview and apologize publicly, if the situation improves, then the company will find a few senior singers to stand up for you." β
Cheng Jianwu's meaning is very simple, let Qi Luo admit his mistake first, and the early public relations will also be a small fight to test the waters.
If there is something that can be done, then the company will take over and invest a lot of resources to help him turn the tide.
But.
Qi Luo looked up at Cheng Jianwu, and then at Xia Jibo, who had a "deep brotherly feeling" face, and he knew with his toes that things would not go so smoothly.
He is not a fool, the agent Sister Ping can see that someone is meddling behind this smear, and Qi Luo can also see it.
If you don't invest millions to buy a draft and buy a hot search, Qi Luo stood up and admitted his mistake to really carry the black pot.
He is obviously a victim, and as soon as he admits his mistake, he will really become a violent maniac.
So.
"I refuse."
Zilo said without hesitation.
"Arlo." Zhou Liping couldn't help but speak out and wanted to admonish.
"Are you sure?"
Cheng Jianwu squinted.
Of course he knew that Zilo was right.
But right and wrong are not important in the entertainment industry, the important thing is to solve things.
Did Zilo do it? It's moving!
Is there a problem with being called a violent maniac? Yes, but it was too late, and the period between the outbreak of the incident and the official closure of the case was the time when he was most powerless to refute.
And if a celebrity starts beating someone, it is wrong in the eyes of the public.
Want to tell everyone the truth? I'm sorry, you don't believe me.
And how do you tell everyone the truth? The answer is to spend money, spend a lot of money.
As the so-called rumors spread a sentence and refute rumors, Xinghai Records can only choose the most cost-effective option.
For his part, Zilo chose to refuse.
in the office.
The atmosphere became more and more solemn.
Cheng Jianwu knew that Qi Luo had a character, but he thought more far-reaching.
Idol singers, if they have such character, then if they are willful after holding it up, the company will suffer even greater losses.
He had to press Zilo down, he had to make Zilo obedient.
This is not only related to the public relations of the current events, but also to the investment risk of the "commodity" of Zilo.
And so.
With a "bang", Cheng Jianwu stood up, pressed his hands on the desk, looked at Qi Luo condescendingly, and gave an ultimatum word by word:
"Either you cooperate with the company's plan, or you just walk out of this office and don't want to get any resources from the company from now on!"
"Mr. Cheng......"
What did Zhou Liping want to say.
"Shut up!"
Cheng Jianwu didn't give him a chance at all, but still looked at Qi Luo.
21-year-old Qi Luo, life experience is really not very rich.
Cheng Jianwu is the director of the acting department of the leading record industry in the circle, and the pressure he is under can be imagined when he puts pressure on him.
Admitting his mistake, the company still praised it, but he felt that he was right.
If he doesn't admit his mistake, the company will really hide him, but is it worth it?
Just admit your mistake and pretend to be cowardly, who wouldn't?
Sweat unconsciously oozed from Ziluo's forehead, and he knew very well that this was an important choice on the road of life.
But.
It seemed like a century had passed.
"Everyone needs to bear the consequences of their choices, and if I am willing to bear the consequences, then I can make the choices I want to make, and my answer is ......"
Qi Luo raised his head slightly and looked at Cheng Jianwu, the director: "I'm not wrong, I won't admit it!" β
A second passes.
Ten seconds passed.
This moment.
Even Cheng Jianwu admired Qi Luo a little.
Young people are very kind.
But young people are so kind that they choose to refuse the middle way and chase the peak, and the end is that the risk of the company investing in him increases.
Of course, Cheng Jianwu is not a mediocre person, if he is a department leader who is more artistic, he will look better at Qi Luo.
It's a pity that he is the director of the performing arts department, and this department is to manage the artists, so he could only stretch out his finger and point to the office door: "You can go." β
"Dah."
Qi Luo didn't talk nonsense, stood up, said goodbye, and walked out of the director's office without looking back.
Out of the director's office, turning a corner is the public office area of the performing arts department, which is the office location of the employees at the bottom level.
Walking through this area, Qi Luo received the gaze of other colleagues in the department, and then he came to the office of his agent Zhou Liping.
Entering the door, he sat down on the sofa in the hospitality area, and Qi Luo took out his mobile phone, logged in to Weibo, and looked at the large number that was taken over by the company.
"This kid has a criminal record, he was dropped out of school abroad because of a fight, and it's normal to go back to China and fight again."
"May I ask if this is the Weibo of professional boxer Zilo?"
"I didn't expect Luo Luo to be such a person, I've changed my way."
"Obey those who are superior, and strike hard at ordinary people, this is an idol."
Traffic idols are a profession, once something happens, the wall will fall down and everyone will push it.
And Zilo really has a criminal record.
He once studied at a foreign conservatory for a year, but because he was racist, he couldn't hold back his temper and got into a fight, and then he was expelled.
But this is also a headache for Xinghai Records.
The company helped Qi Luo clear up the matter not long ago, and now it is really difficult for them to do it again.
In fact, this is also one of the reasons why Qi Luo is so easy to be smeared, and it is also the reason why Weibo messages are mostly sprayed.
"Ha, there are more than 5 million fans, and after deducting the 4 million zombie fans brushed by the company, there are only 15 left, and it is actually close to 300,000?"
Zilo looked at his followers and had a headache.
The stickiness of fans in the fan circle is poor.
He was smeared by some press releases on his side, and the number of followers over there fell in an uproar.
"God be fair, I didn't make a mistake, can't I be compensated for losing a fan?"
Seeing this situation, Qi Luo could only comfort himself in bitterness.
γDi~~γ
[The superstar compensation system has been bound successfully. γ
γYour ......γ
β¦β¦
Suddenly.
A voice rang in my head.
As this mechanical voice spoke, the expression on Zilo's face was a little strange, from shock, to excitement, to joy.
[The number of your followers is -1, and you gain 1 point.] γ
[The number of your followers is -1, and you gain 1 point.] γ
β¦β¦
Accompanied by the mechanical voice, prompts sounded.
"System?"
Zilo couldn't help but let out a sound.
Superstar Compensation Systemββ
Player: Zilo
Fans: 198459
Credits: 16
Function: [Lottery]
Item: [None]
Brush it up.
A translucent curtain of light appeared in his field of vision.
According to the system, every time he loses his fans, the system compensates him with 1 point.
10,000 points will be drawn once.
In short, this system is similar to the online novel Goldfinger that Zilo often reads.
The only question he wants to ask now is: Why is his total follower less than 200,000?
You must know that although the ratings of the "New Star Shining" talent variety show in which Qi Luo participated were so-so, he was the champion.
There are nearly 6 million Weibo followers on the debut (the company has swiped 4 million), and the system only counts 200,000 fans?
Even if it is not calculated according to this number, the old song source covered by Qi Luo in the show has sold more than 300,000 yuan, why is there only 200,000 fans?
With such a small number of fans, he can only draw less than 20 times if he drops out, what's the use?
"So, I still have to increase the number of followers first, and then ...... Dissuade them! β
Zilo was a little enlightened.
The pool is too small, and there is no profit from dropping powder.
If the pool is bigger, the fans will be 1.8 million as soon as they drop, and you can draw a large number of lotteries.
Of course.
As a normal person, Qi Luo can't do anything to persuade fans who really love him to die.
However, his thoughts at this time were also very simple.
Since dropping fans can exchange points, he dissuaded those fans who were not like-minded in advance, which can also be called letting the other party stop losses in advance.
If you don't like it, leave as soon as possible, lest you find out the truth later and be hurt more thoroughly.
It's ......
Zilo was a little moved.
And the heart is not as good as the action.
He organized the language in his heart, pulled out an A4 piece of paper, wrote a paragraph, and then photographed himself into it.
Little Chinese boy: "Forgive my imperfections, accept my imperfections, or, don't fan me, it doesn't work." [Photos]"
Qi Luo's Weibo account has long been found out by fans, and he also posted a photo, and in an instant, the situation collapsed a little.
The little fan girl who was still waiting for Qi Luo's explanation and fans issued a "??? βγ
