Who has the choice after being reborn? I want them all

After a week of controversy over the crew being smashed, public opinion gradually subsided and attention began to decline.

After all, it was just an ordinary public security incident and did not cause too many casualties. If it weren’t for the popularity of "Never Expected", it would not have attracted any attention at all.

"Never Expected" resumed updating on November 11 after being suspended for more than a week. The fourth episode "Scraping the Bone to Heal the Wound" was online for only half a day, but the number of hits on Tudou exceeded 6 million.

The incident of the crew being smashed became known to everyone on the Internet, which made the popularity of "Never Expected" even higher and completely became a hit on the entire Internet.

Why do many crews love to hype up things, including casting, scandals, and even negative news, just to increase their exposure?

Zhang Haofeng brought people to the crew to smash and destroy things, which was considered selfless. At the cost of going to jail, he helped "Never Expected" become a hot topic, and it was a hot topic on the entire Internet.

Yenching Institute of Fashion Technology, girls’ dormitory.

Yu Jiajia sat in front of her laptop, waiting for the update of "Never Expected".

It is said that it will be updated at 6 o'clock (in the evening), and there are still more than ten minutes before the broadcast starts.

In the third episode "Giving Birth to Many Children" updated last week, the character she played finally appeared and had quite a few scenes, which also made her a little famous.

When you walk on the street, people will occasionally recognize you and ask you if you have played so-and-so.

This gave Yu Jiajia the illusion of becoming a star.

A few days ago, an (assistant) director asked her to act in a play. Although it was just a special role with a few lines, it was undoubtedly a good start.

She has too few roles, otherwise she could be even more popular.

"Never Expected" is essentially just a nonsensical comedy, in which the heroine only plays the role of a vase, not to mention that her few roles are divided into two parts.

In Yu Jiajia's opinion, if half of her roles had not been taken away by Jiang Tao, she would definitely become famous after "Never Expected" was broadcast, instead of being mediocre like now.

People are greedy. Maybe when she first got the role, Yu Jiajia was very satisfied.

But after seeing that "Never Expected" was so popular, it was extremely popular, even surpassing many big-budget hit dramas.

How could she be willing to accept that such a great opportunity was snatched away by half by someone else?

I don’t know if there will be more opportunities in the second season, but I heard from Guo Jian that there will be more female characters in the second season. I guess her role will only decrease, not increase.

Yu Jiajia was thinking silently in her heart.

If that doesn't work, she will just go around looking for crews and submit her resume. After all, by the time the first season is over, she will be somewhat famous. If she's lucky enough to be chosen by a director, then she'll have a chance.

While filming, I heard the crew members gossiping and they said that when Wang Baoqiang was a grassroots actor playing a minor role, he was running around to various crews submitting his resume.

As a result, he was lucky enough to be spotted by a new director, who directed him in a realistic movie about mine workers. He also won an award for Best Actor and became famous in the circle overnight.

She is so outstanding in terms of conditions, she will definitely succeed as long as she works hard, there is no need for her to rely on Li Zhe.

"Jia Jia, are you watching "Never Expected" again?"

Yu Jiajia suddenly felt someone patting her on the shoulder. She turned around and saw a slim and pretty girl with twin ponytails.

The girl’s name is Huang Cini, and she has the best relationship with Yu Jiajia in the dormitory.

Huang Sini looked at the laptop screen and said, "You've watched this episode five or six times, right? Aren't you tired of it yet?"

"It's nothing, just watch it again." Yu Jiajia said with a smile.

Not just five or six times, she watched the third episode at least 10 times, especially the second half with her scenes, which she watched no less than 20 times.

"Oh, right!" Huang Sini said as if she remembered something, "I heard someone say that the guy who brought people to your crew to cause trouble was called Zhang Feng..."

"Zhang Haofeng."

"Tell Zhang Haofeng that he will be released soon."

Yu Jiajia was stunned for a moment, "Who told you that?"

"I also heard it from others. This matter has spread on the Internet. It is said that Zhang Haofeng's family has paid money to buy off the connections and he will be released soon."

Huang Sini glanced at Yu Jiajia and said, "Haven't you heard?"

Yu Jiajia shook her head slightly. "I don't pay much attention to the news online, and I haven't heard anyone from the crew talk about this."

She also heard that Zhang Haofeng's family was very rich, said to be worth tens of billions (an exaggeration), so it was not uncommon for him to be able to spend money to buy off connections.

Li Zhe is quite capable, but after all, he is just a student with some money. How can he possibly compete with a truly rich person?

"I'm going to the cafeteria to eat, Jia Jia, do you want to go?" Huang Sini said again.

"You go first, I'll go later."

Yu Jiajia glanced at the time on the computer and found that it was less than five minutes to six o'clock. She planned to finish watching "Never Expected" first and then go to eat.

"Okay, then I'll go first." After Huang Sini left, Yu Jiajia tried to refresh the webpage and found that the fourth episode had been updated in advance, so she quickly clicked on the video.

"I never expected la la la la la..."

The video begins with the familiar images and music, followed by an advertisement, but it is not the kind of funny gags shot in the style of an advertisement.

What: This episode is sponsored by China Southern Airlines, we are going to go to faraway places to have a look, and what else is our Smecta!
It's a real sponsored ad.

"This episode is sponsored by the web game "Siege of the City". Come and recruit soldiers and expand your territory!"

"Did you get the advertisement so quickly?" Yu Jiajia was a little surprised.

"My name is Wang Dachui. I always get given banners like 'The Greatest Doctor'. I feel really embarrassed..."

The five-minute video was finished quickly, and Yu Jiajia felt a little unsatisfied. She had very few scenes in this episode, only two or three shots.
But showing her face is better than having no role at all. There will be no shots of her in the next episode "Big Tongue Monkey King", and there will be no female character in this episode.

Yu Jiajia watched the video again, closed her laptop, and went downstairs to the cafeteria to eat.

However, as soon as she walked out of the dormitory building, her cell phone rang.

"Brother Jian, do you have something to talk to me about?"

"Jia Jia, are you at school?" Guo Jian's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Well, I'm just about to go to the cafeteria to eat."

"Then come to the west gate first. I'll wait for you at the gate."

……

Outside the west gate of the Fashion Institute, Guo Jian was standing under a tree on the roadside. When he saw Yu Jiajia walking out of the school gate, he waved to her.

Yu Jiajia walked up to Guo Jian and said, "Brother Jian, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Good news." Guo Jian said as he took out a red envelope from his arms and handed it to her.

Yu Jiajia hesitated and didn't answer, "This is..."

"A red envelope for you."

Guo Jian said ostentatiously, "The crew received an advertisement. This is the red envelope that Zhezi gave to everyone. Everyone gets one, including the extras. Feel free to take it."

After hearing this, Yu Jiajia took the red envelope and secretly touched it. It felt quite thick, and there should be a lot of money in it.

"Is it the advertisement for the web game "Siege War"?"

"Have you watched the new episode? Yes, that web game advertisement." Guo Jian nodded.

Yu Jiajia also wanted to ask how much the advertising fee was, but after hesitating for a moment, she didn't say anything.

Even if she asked, Guo Jian might not tell her.

However, she had heard before that an advertiser offered 10 yuan, but Li Zhe did not agree. Now that "Never Expected That" is even more popular, the advertising fee is estimated to be at least hundreds of thousands.

In fact, Yu Jiajia was not brave enough and guessed too little.

The first advertising fee that "Never Expected That" received was exactly one million, no more, no less.

One million dollars for a pre-roll advertisement may seem like a sky-high price, but considering the hundreds of millions of clicks on the entire Internet, is it expensive?

Not only is it not expensive, it is also very cheap.

Speaking of which, we have to thank Zhang Haofeng for his selfless dedication. Originally, Li Zhe didn't plan to take any advertisements to make money in the first season.

But after the crew was smashed, advertisers saw the popularity and flocked to the show, offering higher and higher prices. In the end, someone actually agreed to a price of one million for a single advertisement.

Li Zhe also decided to slow down the updating speed and change it to one episode per week.

In this way, the first season of "Never Expected" can earn at least 10 or 20 million.

Once you have good luck, it is hard not to make money.

Thanks again to my friend Zhang Haofeng!

"Okay, I'll leave first. You haven't eaten yet? Go and eat quickly." Guo Jian said and was about to leave.

Yu Jiajia stopped him, "Brother Jian, I heard that Zhang Haofeng's family paid money to buy off connections, and he will be released soon. Is it true?"

Guo Jian stopped, looked at Yu Jiajia and said, "You may not know yet, but the incident of Zhang Haofeng hiring someone to commit a crime was recorded and posted online.

The boy in the recording was so arrogant that it caused public outrage online. With such strong public opinion, it would be useless even if his family spent a lot of money. No one dared to help him. He is doomed to be trapped.”

After a pause, Guo Jian sneered, "This kid relies on his family's wealth to think he is so high and mighty that he even dares to snatch Zhezi's girlfriend. I'll kill him!" (End of this chapter)
