Actor: Thank you.

They say rumors stop with the wise.

But many people who curse on the Internet all day long are not even wise men, let alone wise men.

So things like publicity and crisis public relations are actually highly professional jobs.

In the final analysis, it is actually "playing with people".

Only by understanding people’s hearts can you do good public relations.

Take Zhang Yuqi’s case for example.

Apologize, admit mistakes, keep a low profile for a while...this is what a general public relations person would do.

Right or wrong is actually not important.

The key point is how to gain the support of a specific group, that is, the artist’s own fan profile group.

Therefore, in public relations, explaining things honestly is the most useless method.

Just like Liu Xixi's appearance on "Today's Statement", it was useless.

Of course, the mother and daughter of the Liu family have their own moral standards. They will not use this to hype themselves up, and they even hate the rumors about themselves.

But Zhang Yuan is different.

When it comes to interests, his moral bottom line is quite flexible.

But compared with his peers, he still has a bottom line.

Get everything ready, put on makeup, and get ready to go to work.

There were already a large number of media outside, all coming to report his "death news".

But Zhang Yuan did not arrange today's media meeting as his clarification meeting.

What he asked Boss Cai to prepare was the media conference for the crew of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3".

If we only hold a clarification meeting, half of this wave of traffic will be wasted.

It would be better to change the topic and bring up this TV series.

Anyway, if Sugar Man makes money, it’s his money and he gets a share of the profits.

Hiding behind the makeshift stage, Zhang Yuan glanced sideways.

Hey!
He knew that many people would come, but he didn't expect that many.

There were dozens of people carrying machines and microphones.

There was a crowd in the front, and there were probably four or five hundred people with press passes!
They all came yesterday afternoon and overnight after hearing the news of his "death".

This is not over yet.

These four or five hundred people are just journalists and media.

The onlookers are even more incredible!
Zhang Yuan stepped on the iron frame behind the stage and looked up a little.

There were so many people, at least one or two thousand!
Right now, the area around the set of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" is as lively as the morning exercises at school.

There was still no teacher to supervise, and it was a noisy scene with everyone chattering and talking about their own things.

After contacting Li Ruigang, he sent the host from Shanghai TV.

We specially found a young host who is quick-witted and can liven up the atmosphere.

A film crew was also sent.

The host was named Zhu Zhen, tall and thin, with a slick face.

Zhang Yuan remembered that this person had a very good relationship with Xue Zhiqian, Qiao Renliang and others.

And don’t be fooled by this cheerful guy, he doesn’t look like the son of a wealthy family.

In fact, his grandfather was Zhu Meicun, a famous Chinese painter who was familiar with Zhang Daqian and others.

The Great Hall of the People and the National Museum both display the old man’s masterpieces.

The reason why Mr. Zhu was familiar with Zhang Daqian was because his uncle, Wu Hufan, was a painter and collector in the Republic of China period, and had a close relationship with Zhang Daqian.

Mr. Wu Hufan's grandfather was Wu Dacheng, who served as the governor of Hunan during the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and led the Hunan Army personally.

So don’t underestimate him as just a host, he has a very wealthy family.

Including the "Large Intestine Immortal" Cao Kefan, who is able to stand firm on the Magic City TV station and also has a background.

His ancestors were relatives of the Rong family, a famous business family in Shanghai known as the "Flour King".

This person's biological father was kidnapped in Shanghai by kidnappers who colluded with the government and demanded a ransom of 100 million US dollars.

One million US dollars during the Republic of China period was an astronomical figure.

Calculated based on the exchange rate of US dollars and gold at the time, it was equivalent to more than one ton of gold.

Zhang Ziqiang, who kidnapped Li Huanggua's son, had to say "You guys are still good at making money" when he saw these gangsters from the Guo Party.

The person in charge of investigating this kidnapping case was Wu Guozhen, the then mayor of Mo City, played by Cao Kefan in "The Founding of a Republic".

It was also because of this incident that the Rong family had the opportunity to join our party and become red businessmen.

Even though this part of Shanghai is dominated by business, many people actually have connections. It’s just that businessmen understand the principle of “making money quietly” better, so they don’t show it on a daily basis.

Looking around, most of them are descendants of former kings, princes, generals and ministers.

"Please welcome the handsome men and beautiful women from the Chinese Paladin 3 crew to make their debut!"

After Zhu Zhen livened up the atmosphere on the stage for a while, he found himself seeming a little redundant.

The people who came here didn't buy it at all.

Everyone was eager to see Zhang Yuan.

The main purpose is to confirm whether he is alive or dead.

Hu Ge, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, Tang Yan, Huo Jianhua and others appeared one after another.

Not only did the people in the audience fail to see the stars' enthusiasm, but some people even started to make noises impatiently, trying to coax them off the stage.

After the host quickly interrupted, he sped up the process, cleverly skipped the process of calling the director and producer, and went straight to the point.

"Now, let us give the warmest applause to welcome the much-anticipated... Li Xiaoyao!"

When Zhang Yuan arrived at the "stage door", he did not walk up the stairs properly, but jumped onto the stage in one step.

He also specifically asked Boss Cai to help him find the costumes for the filming of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 1".

My youth is back and belongs to...

"Oh!"

As soon as he stepped onto the stage, the cheers were like thunder!
The eardrums of Hu Ge and others on the stage were slightly sore from the shock.

Who did they come to see?

Finally, they saw Zhang Yuan. Not only was he not "killed by the explosion", but he was also alive and kicking, as light as a swallow and able to jump onto the stage. The whole audience was excited.

The camera flashes were flashing continuously and couldn't be stopped.

All the cameras were focused on him.

"Get out of the way."

"Don't block it!"

Zhang Yuan stood among the leading actors, and some reporters waved their hands, asking Hu Ge and Huo Jianhua to move aside and not block us from taking pictures of them. Hu Ge smiled awkwardly and moved aside, and also pulled Huo Jianhua, who was a bit dumb, aside.

Give the C position to Zhang Yuan.

I am the leading male role... Hu Ge smiled bitterly in his heart.

Zhang Yuan was clearly just here for a guest appearance.

But when he comes, even the leading actor himself has to stand aside.

There's no point in not accepting it, the media is very realistic.

And he had no reason to be dissatisfied. After all, others had helped him up after he was seriously injured.

After everyone posed for some action and let the media take pictures, it was time for questions.

At this moment, the host will first select the arranged person to CUE the process.

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang Yuan, are you planning to return to the TV drama industry?"

“The set of The Chinese Paladin is like my home.”

"Although I am not starring again this time, I will reappear in this sequel as Li Xiaoyao."

In the game, Li Xiaoyao appears in the first, second, fifth and seventh generations.

But it didn't appear in the third generation.

According to the original character setting of the game, Li Xiaoyao's father, Li Sansi, is the apprentice of Jingtian, the male protagonist of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", and they have this kind of relationship.

In terms of time, the third generation can be considered a prequel.

So Li Xiaoyao was not born yet.

But Boss Cai and the screenwriters believed that Li Xiaoyao was needed to attract old fans and create topics, so they deliberately designed the plot of time travel.

Anyway, there was already a plot in "Legend of Sword and Fairy 1" about traveling through time and space to save Zhao Linger, so there is no problem in doing it again this time.

It’s just that Boss Cai wanted to hide the mystery and wait until the film’s promotion period to reveal the news that Li Xiaoyao would appear and attract a wave of audiences.

Now it has been leaked in advance, disrupting her plans.

But she looked down at the audience.

No matter how hard I try, it is impossible to have such a grand event and such attention!

With her ability, at most she can gain some attention among the fan group, and at most she can go online overnight... Boss Cai is a representative figure who wakes up early and likes to lurk and post.

After all the back and forth, it only caused some big stir among the TV drama audience circle.

Later, he had a fight with Yu Zheng over "Palace" and "Startling by Each Step", which actually increased the attention of the works in disguise.

The attention Zhang Yuan is now attracting is "cross-border".

It is not entertainment news, but current affairs news.

"It's rumored online that you were seriously injured in an explosion on the set. What happened?" the arranged reporter asked again.

"Do I look like I'm injured now?" Zhang Yuan gestured.

"It's all misunderstanding. I wasn't bombed, and I wasn't injured."

"Thank you for your concern. Please rest assured that I am not disabled, let alone dead. Otherwise, who would be standing here?"

This is the end of the question guide. Now, please allow media to ask questions freely.

Although it was specially organized as a press conference for "Chinese Paladin 3", basically no one asked about the drama.

The other leading actors were also too idle to respond at all.

All the firepower was on Zhang Yuan.

All the questions they asked were about "explosion", "injury", "romance" and so on.

When talking about love, Tang Yan found that her two best friends straightened their backs.

Are you tired of sitting?
Zhang Yuan is experienced and can handle these questions with ease, occasionally turning the topic back to his work.

Until a problem arises...

"I would like to ask Mr. Zhang Yuan whether the news on the Internet was released intentionally by you and your team."

"Just to cooperate with the crew's hype?"

Boss Cai's face suddenly turned dark.

The host also became nervous and wanted to wink at Zhang Yuan.

Because the best solution to this kind of negative question is not to answer it.

Because once you answer, if you are caught with something, it will be magnified infinitely and the consequences are unknown.

But Zhang Yuan stood up to their surprise.

"No one would joke about their own life and death."

"So the problem you're talking about doesn't exist."

"But with so many media and audiences here today, isn't this just hype?" the reporter asked.

As journalists, for the sake of their work, they always want to make big news and are often aggressive.

"We didn't call the media here. You all came here on your own initiative. You were not invited by the crew."

His attitude was exceptionally tough.

After that, similar questions about hype continued to arise, and he responded with the same attitude.

The press conference, which lasted more than an hour, became his one-man show.

Even after the show ended, there were still a large number of fans and spectators who did not leave.

In order to maintain order, Tang Ren had to spend money to temporarily hire a large group of security guards to help.

Back in the dressing room, Zhang Yuan filled a bottle of mineral water.

After talking for so long, I did it for him...

"Were you a little too... forceful just now?" Boss Cai sat down in front of him and said in a low voice.

"The audience and fans like to see their idols being strong," Zhang Yuan replied.

You need to understand the needs of the people you serve.

What artists fear most is “Your Majesty, why do you surrender first when we are about to fight to the death?”

The fans were passionately arguing with others to protect their idol, but the artist ended up lying down and apologizing first.

This will not only fail to solve the problem, but will also lose the support of fans.

"Okay." Boss Cai thought about it and felt that what he said made sense: "But why didn't you mention saving people?"

Not only did Zhang Yuan not mention Yang Zhigang's matter just now, he also informed everyone in the crew and his own people at the Magic City TV station in advance not to mention the matter of rescuing people.

"Don't be in a hurry, let the bullet fly for a while."

As the host, Zhang Yuan was leisurely and not panicked at all.

"You will know soon." (End of this chapter)
