Penguin AV Headquarters.

Wang Dalong has been guarding the background data of "The Beginning" in the technical department, and the total number of broadcasts of "The Beginning" has exceeded 30 million at eleven o'clock.

The first episode has 10 million active views, the second episode is 8 million, the third episode is 7 million, and the fourth episode is 5 million!

It's on fire!

It's really hot!

When "The Beginning" first started, the data was very beautiful, but that has a lot to do with the recent publicity and the influence of Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian.

And the performance of a drama still depends on the increment of follow-up data, at present, "The Beginning" has been online for four hours, and all data have skyrocketed, and the number of broadcasts of each episode is very healthy.

In particular, there is only a million difference between the free second episode and the third episode that requires VIP, considering the time difference between the audience chasing the drama, such a difference in the number of broadcasts is almost negligible, which means that the high VIP rate of "The Beginning" is scary.

Aside from the users who are themselves Penguin Audio-Visual members, in just four hours, "The Beginning" helped Penguin Audio-Visual attract millions of new members, which is terrifying!

The next day, the good reputation of "The Beginning" continued to ferment, and various data were also growing in an orderly manner.

At more than nine o'clock in the morning, the official Weibo of the beginning released a celebration poster with more than 100 million views.

And this time, the announcement of Penguin Video did not use the previous headshot poster of Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian, but used a still of Chen Wenhan leading Lin Youyou running forward as a celebration poster.

Obviously, the promotion of the penguin is really professional, after the launch of "The Beginning" last night, Lin Youyou attracted countless fans with his sweet and lovely appearance and good acting skills.

Overnight, the number of Weibo fans directly exceeded one million!

A perfect interpretation of what it means to be "popular overnight"!

And the combination of Lin Youyou and Chen Wenhan is also nicknamed "Circular CP" by the audience!

This name is naturally based on the plot of "The Beginning", and the two are trapped in an infinite loop in the play, so there is also the name of "Circular CP".

However, some fans call the two "Forest Dog CP2.0"!

"Lin Dog CP" was originally the name of Chen Wenhan and Lin Nian by netizens, and Lin Youyou is also surnamed Lin, so some netizens jokingly called the two "Lin Dog CP2.0" version.

No matter what CP it is, in short, Lin Youyou is on fire.

has directly become a new little flower with millions of fans since she was a child.

And such a speed of popularity was something Lin Youyou didn't expect at all, and he didn't have any psychological preparation.

The next morning, she went to the cafeteria for breakfast as usual, but on the way to the cafeteria, she was recognized, and many people came to take pictures with her.

The same is true when eating in the cafeteria, so that the breakfast that can usually be made in ten minutes is more than half an hour, if it weren't for the fact that she was almost late for class and pushed down the group photo request at the back, she might not be able to get out of the cafeteria when she arrives in class.

"Yoyo, you're really on fire!"

"Do you have to celebrate with a treat??"

On the way to the teaching building, roommate Sun Qianying said with a smile.

"Gotta be treated!"

"If you don't eat a few meals now, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat in the future!" Zhang Jiaqi echoed on the side.

"Please, please."

"You can eat whatever you want."

Lin Youyou waved her hand generously, a few days ago, her salary for filming "The Beginning" had been transferred to the bank card, a total of 60,000 yuan.

Chen Wenhan gave full play to the spirit of the unscrupulous boss, and only gave Lin Youyou a salary of 5,000 yuan per episode, and the twelve episodes of "The Beginning" were just 60,000 yuan.

The heroine only gets a salary of 5,000 yuan per episode, which seems to be quite little, but in fact it is not a lot, Lin Youyou is a newcomer after all, 5,000 yuan per episode is actually a lot, even if there are two or three thousand yuan in an episode, there are a lot of people who are willing to act.

What's more, this thing can't be measured by salary, if Lin Youyou is not Lin Nian's cousin, and she didn't know Chen Wenhan before, let alone 5,000 yuan per episode, even if she looks for Chen Wenhan's money, she can't play this heroine.

"Yoyo, Mr. Chen's mahjong entertainment can't recruit actors, and I also want to sign in to his company."

Sun Qianying said again.

"And me, I also want to sign with Mr. Chen's company, even if it's a deed of sale, it doesn't matter!" Zhang Jiaqi also nodded again and again.

"I don't know about this, but when I was filming, I heard Mr. Chen say that "The Beginning" is a test of water, and if the effect is good, the company may set up a special film and television production department."

This kind of thing is not a secret, Lin Youyou responded casually.

"The Beginning" is on fire, and the effect is obviously good!"

Sun Qianying took Lin Youyou's arm and said, "Youyou, if Mr. Chen recruits actors, you must notify us as soon as possible!" ”

"Mm-hmm, yes."

Lin Youyou nodded, she has always gotten along with Sun Qianying and Zhang Jiaqi, and the relationship is also good, so she will also help with the effort.

In the classroom of the second class of acting.

A tall girl with long wavy hair is being surrounded by several classmates, her name is Han Ranran.

is also Lin Youyou's roommate, but she has been filming outside before, and she only returned to school this morning, and then went directly to the classroom.

Han Ranran is a second-generation star, and her mother is a well-known actor, so her resources are very good, and she has often filmed since her freshman year.

Her classmates all knew that she was well-connected and willing to make friends with her, and after not seeing her for a while, everyone was chatting with her.

"Yoyo is here!"

"Yoyo, take a group photo!"

"Wow, the big star of our class!"

"Yoyo, you've been my goddess since yesterday!"

As soon as Lin Youyou appeared, the classroom suddenly boiled.

Han Ranran, who was originally chatting with someone, immediately greeted him with a smile on his face, and gave Lin Youyou a big hug without saying anything: "Youyou, I haven't seen you for a long time, I really want to die!" ”

"yes, long time no see!"

Lin Youyou replied with a smile, her relationship with Han Ranran is actually better than that of Sun Qianying and Zhang Jiaqi.

Some time ago, Lin Youyou first joined the group to shoot "The Beginning", and then Han Ranran joined the crew again, and the two haven't seen each other for more than a month.

"In the same dormitory, there are Youyou and Ranran, such a sleeping dragon and phoenix chick, it's really amazing!"

"That's it! Qianying, Jiaqi, you have to work hard, if you become popular again, your dormitory will become a star dormitory! ”

There were classmates around who sighed.

There is no movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City" in this time and space, so at present, Wolong and Phoenix Chicks are still a compliment!

Han Ranran chatted with Lin Youyou very intimately, and then pulled her to the place next to him and sat down.

She naturally watched "The Beginning", after all, it is a web drama in which her friend plays the heroine, and even if it is not starring Lin Youyou, this drama has Lin Nian and Chen Wenhan, and she will probably watch it.

As for Lin Youyou's overnight popularity, Han Ranran, as a friend, is very happy for her, and at the same time, she is naturally very envious.

"Yoyo, I finished the first four episodes of "The Beginning" on the high-speed train back, you acted really well, and the plot is good, I haven't seen such an interesting suspense drama for a long time."

"Spoiler alert, what's going on next?"

Han Ranran took Lin Youyou's arm and asked about the plot.

"Yoyo, let's talk about it, I want to know the plot later, why did the bus explode?"

Sun Qianying, who was sitting on the other side of Lin Youyou, also asked.

"You guys want spoilers, so I'll just say it"

Lin Youyou likes the story of "The Beginning" very much, and the script can be memorized backwards, so he told his roommates about the plot behind.

And just when she talked about the critical moment, their homeroom teacher, who was also an acting teacher, Xu Minglan, walked into the classroom.

The originally noisy classroom suddenly fell silent, and Lin Youyou could only stop.

"A crew came to the school to recruit actors, everyone is ready to prepare, and this class will be made up later"

As soon as Xu Minglan spoke, the classroom that had just quieted down suddenly became noisy again.

"Mr. Xu, what crew?"

"Is there a main character left for us?"

"Which great director is it?"

The students asked.

Hengzhou Film and Television Institute is not far from Hengzhou Film and Television City, so there are often crews who come directly to the school to recruit actors, but the school may not pay so much attention to it, usually it will be arranged when there is no class, and it will also respect the students' own wishes, go if they want to, and don't go if they don't want to go.

But this time Xu Minglan had an obvious meaning, let the whole class go, and also postponed the acting class, indicating that the crew who came this time belonged to the heavyweight.

Xu Minglan stretched out her hand to suppress the sound wave in the classroom, and said: "The crew is not a big crew, and the director is not very famous."

Belch?

This?

Hearing her say this, the students were all confused.

At this time, I heard Xu Minglan continue: "But the producer of this drama is Mahjong Entertainment, the screenwriter is Feng Qingyang, the filming team of "The Beginning", and Chen Wenhan, as the producer, also came to the school! ”

"Chen Wenhan?"

"Teacher Chen??"

"I'll go, it's really fake!!"

"The filming team of "The Beginning" is awesome!!"

Listening to Xu Minglan's words, the students in the class suddenly couldn't calm down, and they were both surprised and excited.

Then many people looked at Lin Youyou.

She is the heroine of "The Beginning" and a contracted actor of Mahjong Entertainment, so she should know some insider information.

In fact, Lin Youyou didn't know anything about Chen Wenhan's coming to school, and she, like everyone else, only knew about it after listening to Xu Minglan's words.

"Yoyo, what kind of scene is Mr. Chen going to film?"

"Yoyo, you're a mahjong entertainment person, you shouldn't need an interview!"

"Yoyo, do you want to reveal some of the inside story??"

Han Ranran, Sun Qianying and others immediately gossiped around Lin Youyou.

Acting class rehearsal room.

A row of tables and chairs was temporarily placed here, which was transformed into a recruitment site for the actors of "The Wrong Car".

When filming "The Beginning", Chen Wenhan handed over the improved version of the script of "Taking the Wrong Car" to Lan Zhengye, and when the post-production work of "The Beginning" was over, he began to prepare for the play "Taking the Wrong Car".

The heroine has long decided on Lin Nian, but the other roles have not yet been decided.

In fact, according to the script, there are not many young actors needed for this play, mainly because the heroine needs singers, dancers or something after joining the acting company.

Originally, there was no need to go to the film and television academy to recruit actors, and there are thousands of group actors and young actors in Hengzhou Film and Television City, which can meet the needs of filming.

But those group performances and young actors naturally can't be compared with the students of the film and television academy in all aspects.

But this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that Chen Wenhan wants to see if there are good seedlings, the popularity of "The Beginning" made him firm in his determination to enter the film and television industry, so he is ready to sign a group of actors, and the students in the film and television academy have undergone a very strict screening, and the success rate is higher.

"Boss, there are already twenty or thirty people in line, can you start?"

In addition to Lan Zhengye, who came to Hengzhou Film and Television Academy with Chen Wenhan, there was also Zhang Dajun, the assistant director when filming "The Beginning".

He is also an employee of Mahjong Entertainment now, and Zhang Dajun is a casting director, responsible for recruiting group actors, special actors and some small roles.

He is very experienced in this kind of recruitment of actors.

"Let's get started."

Chen Wenhan, who was sitting in the center, nodded slightly.

Afterwards, the students who lined up outside the door entered the interview site in turn.

The acting major of Hengzhou Film and Television Academy will hold two classes every year, with 40 students in each class, and there are theoretically 320 students in the four classes of the school.

But after the third and fourth years, there are relatively few students in the acting class, especially the senior students, almost all of them run the crew outside, and except for some students who can't come to participate in the recruitment for other reasons, there are about 150 or 60 students who come to the interview.

And the quality of these students from the academic class is indeed excellent in all aspects, so that Chen Wenhan is a little dazzled

"Next!"

Zhang Dajun put aside the previous student's resume, and then nodded at the school staff guarding the door.

The latter opened the door, and another student entered.

After seeing this student, Chen Wenhan suddenly pouted a little speechlessly: "Yoyo, what are you doing with it!" ”

"Teacher Xu, let us all come."

Lin Youyou replied with a smile.

"Let's sit and watch."

Chen Wenhan casually pointed to the empty seat beside him.

"Oh."

Lin Youyou nodded and pulled a chair to sit directly behind Chen Wenhan, and then asked in a low voice, "Teacher Chen, why didn't you tell me before you came?" ”

"Why did you tell you?"

Chen Wenhan asked rhetorically.

"Ugh"

Lin Youyou was speechless and said that he was the boss, and he really had no obligation to report the itinerary to her.

"I just thought it was sudden."

Lin Youyou pursed his lips and said.

"When the interview is over, it will give you the opportunity to treat the host."

Chen Wenhan smiled and waved his hand, and at this time, the next student had already walked into the room, it was Lin Youyou's roommate and classmate Han Ranran.

"Teacher Chen is good, Director Lan is good, Director Zhang is good!"

"My name is Han Ranran, 20 years old, I am a sophomore this year, and I have more than ten filming experience."

Han Ranran, who has seen big scenes, is not stage frightened at all, confidently and calmly introduces his situation, and from time to time his eyes will glance at Lin Youyou, who is sitting behind Chen Wenhan.

"Your mother is Teacher Han Ruifang?"

Lan Zhengye and Han Ruifang cooperated, and Han Ruifang took her daughter Han Ranran to the set at that time, but that was three or four years ago, and Lan Zhengye didn't dare to confirm it.

"Yes."

Han Ranran nodded and said, "I met Director Lan in the crew of "Countdown" a few years ago. ”

"Well, I just said it looks familiar!"

Lan Zhengye nodded slightly.

"Hey, it's still an old acquaintance."

"It doesn't look like it's going to work anymore."

Chen Wenhan teased with a smile, although he didn't know Han Ranran, the other party's first impression on her was good, and her appearance was good.
