I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Chapter 332 Sincerity is her ultimate weapon
The publicity and promotion is indeed going smoothly, but during this period, the most active person is actually Youyou.

Before, although she would also participate in various promotional activities for the dramas she starred in, they were almost all carried out according to the company's arrangements.

It's like this. It's rare that I post several Weibo posts in a day to call on fans to watch the show when it starts airing. This is the first time.

He even took the initiative to interact with fans, which is rare.

The main reason why Youyou entered the entertainment industry and became an actor is because she loves acting.

Instead of enjoying the feeling of being a star, being noticed or standing under the spotlight.

This can be seen from the fact that she hardly takes any endorsements and rarely participates in variety shows or offline activities.

Apart from acting, she does not participate in other work unless it is necessary.

Her identity as the daughter of the chairman of Fengge Company does allow her to be so willful.

No one, including Lin Hong and Song Fuquan, thought that this was a big problem.

Never interfered too much.

……

But now, even if no one has told her.

Be it Song Fuquan or Xu Kong.

In fact, no one planned to tell Song Youyou about Zhu Changyun's departure from Fengge and the huge changes within the company.

The main thing is that this does not do much good except making her worry unnecessarily.

But this matter is too big, even if Xu Kong and the others don’t say it, it is impossible to keep it secret.

It was obvious that Youyou knew everything already, including the affairs of Changyun Film and Television and Fengge's current situation.

That's why she worked so hard in this movie "The Beginning".

Although she didn't say anything, just from what she did, you could tell that she really wanted to help.

……

"Brother Xu Kong, do you think our new drama can really beat them?"

This time, Song Youyou couldn't help but ask this question.

There was no way, although she certainly knew it, and she was also the one who trusted Xu Kong's abilities the most among everyone.

But this time, Changyun Film and Television’s "The Powerful World".

The director was Aunt Yu Fenfen, whom she already knew. And there were a lot of familiar faces among the actors in the film.

It is no exaggeration to say that she had seen many of them when she was a child.

And some of them were even the kind of people who influenced her to become an actress.

Therefore, it is normal to have some worries in your heart.

In response to this, Xu Kong did not hesitate at all and replied with a smile:

"Of course we will win."

Although Xu Kong's original intention was to make Song Youyou feel a little more at ease.

But he didn't think that "The Beginning", a drama with such a small investment, really couldn't shake big productions like "The Power of the World".

On the contrary, there are some recent comparative analyses on the investment of the two dramas.

In particular, there is inside information that the investment in "Beginning" definitely did not exceed 100 million.

He was the one who released it in the first place.

What he wanted was for everyone, including Zhu Changyun, to know that this time, "The Beginning" was not only not directed by him, Xu Kong, but also from the production, the team, to every other aspect, it was a low-budget drama with the potential to achieve great results with small investments.

The more this happens, the more Zhu Changyun will doubt his life when he really defeats the opponent.

Although Xu Kong had never heard anyone else evaluate him in this way, he actually didn't need anyone else's evaluation, and he himself admitted it generously.

Yes, he is a very vengeful person.

Xu Kong didn't care about Zhu Changyun's departure from Feng Ge, or the grudge between him and Song Quanfu.

But he will remember for the rest of his life the things that the other party did to trip him up.

It seems that the reason why Fengge and Changyun Film and Television are so at loggerheads now is because of their origins and unclear past grievances.

But only Xu Kong, the decision maker, knew best that the most crucial thing was that Zhu Changyun had offended him.

Otherwise, Xu Kong might really give priority to the company's current development and interests.

But now, Xu Kong felt unhappy that he had not allowed Zhu Changyun and his Changyun Film and Television to doubt their lives for a long time.

……

"Yes, I feel that Mr. Zhu is indeed being a little too cautious right now."

"In fact, judging from the styles of the two dramas, there is no way they can be considered competitors."

"The most important thing is, for a drama with an investment of only tens of millions and a length of only about 15 episodes, even if Xu Kong is the lead actor, what good can it do?"

At this time at Changyun Film and Television, the main creators of "The Power of the World" have held an unknown number of meetings in recent times.

In fact, the broadcast time, platform, and all aspects of the entire drama have almost been decided.

Apart from cooperating with the company in publicity and promotion, they don't have anything else to do.

But such frequent meetings were undoubtedly because Xu Kong had a lot to do with the new drama of his old employer.

"Be quiet. Be careful when you say this next time."

As the director, Yu Fenfen couldn't help but remind her.

In fact, deep down, she felt that Zhu Changyun was making a big deal out of nothing.

Although she admired Xu Kong, a junior in the industry, she also believed that his achievements would definitely not be lower than hers.

But at this time, this drama "The Power of the World" is almost the result of her painstaking efforts, spending so much time and energy, and including such a huge investment to shoot it.

It might even become a drama that goes down in the history of Chinese TV dramas. How could it lose to the other party so easily?

Not to mention Xu Kong's drama this time, which had such a small investment and was not directed by him himself.

Instead, the director was Su Meng, whom she was relatively familiar with and had even mentored before.

……

But the reason why she was so cautious was that she didn't even reveal her true attitude too much throughout the whole process.

Or it is because of my understanding of Zhu Changyun, the current boss of the company.

Zhu Changyun is not like Song Fuquan.

Song Fuquan has always had great trust in the people under his company.

The trust here is not about company management, but about business capabilities.

So for a director like her, the other party only cares about the budget and subsequent profits.

I don't care about the details at all.

This is commonly known as decentralization.

But Zhu Changyun is a little different.

His work style is that as long as he cares about a project, he will definitely personally monitor it.

And he's the type that pays attention to every detail.

It can be said that as long as there is something that he thinks is uncontrollable, or different from his own ideas and directions, he will correct it immediately.

Moreover, Zhu Changyun is not someone who cannot tolerate some so-called opinions and suggestions.

But I really have a lot to say about the person who arranged him.

It is said that some first-line actors who had followed Fengge before said something bad about each other, and now they have almost reached the point where they can’t get any resources.

Even roles that they get by relying on their fame and their own connections may be turned down by the other party on the grounds that they do not fit the company's training positioning and value for them.

There was no way. At the beginning, Zhu Changyun had asked them to leave with him and he had made many promises. In addition, Feng Ge was training new people, which caused the resources of many old employees to decline.

This took away almost half or even more of Feng Ge's wealth.

Now that Changyun Film and Television has been fully established, no one can say how many of those promises can be fulfilled. At least, some of Yu Fenfen's promises have been fulfilled.

For example, this movie "The Power of the World".

As for other colleagues, Yu Fenfen has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and is very clear that some things have nothing to do with her and she doesn't have the ability to care about them, so it's best for her to pretend that she knows nothing.

……

"Boss Zhu is here!"

I don't know who said it, but the scene suddenly became completely quiet.

They were not worried about Yu Fenfen complaining or anything like that.

He is one of the "insiders" of the other team.

However, when Zhu Changyun, the company's boss, arrived at the scene, he had previously arranged for the other party, so naturally he still felt a little guilty.

Of course, Zhu Changyun didn't care too much about the performance of the creative team on the scene.

Instead, he spoke to himself:
"I know everyone is very tired during this period, and I am tired too."

"But once The Conspiracy is broadcast, I think by then I can get all kinds of data or feedback from the audience."

“It must be something that will satisfy everyone.”

"Of course, there will be bonuses when the time comes!"

……

Zhu Changyun was indeed disturbed by the little Xu Kong and "The Beginning".

But at such a critical moment, the most important thing is definitely the morale of the army.

Even if you really have no confidence at all, you must never show it.

Everyone needs this self-confidence. Although it seems that we have it, the encouragement and support as well as the corresponding most direct rewards are still essential.

Don't let this anger fade at this last moment.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhu!"

Director Yu Fenfen took the lead in speaking up.

At this time, the entire creative crew of "The Power of the World" also spoke up.

It’s as if I have really seen their drama becoming the big hit of this year.

At least at this moment, many people present, even director Yu Fenfen, feel this from the bottom of their hearts.

I don't think there's any chance that their new drama will flop or even be mediocre.
……

"I really didn't take the money. After all, this concerns my reputation for so many years."

"If I wanted to collect money, I would have done it many years ago."

"It's mainly about Yu Fenfen's new drama. Judging from all the materials and trailers that have been released, I'm actually not very optimistic about it."

"Although the costumes and props were carefully crafted and a huge investment was made, it can even be said to be quite gorgeous, and it can even be considered a domestic political drama, and it has created history in every aspect, but..."

At this moment, Yiguo, who was broadcasting live, suddenly paused.

The main reason is that she has always been accustomed to meeting the audience with copywriting that is carefully thought out and even carefully considered word by word.

There are still too few situations like this kind of live broadcast and real-time communication with the audience.

For a moment, I really couldn't find a better metaphor or description.

Until I saw someone posting in the barrage:
"Shi in a fancy package?"

This seemed a little exaggerated, but it was a very appropriate description, and she couldn't help laughing.

Although the face was not shown, the laughter was still heard.

……

"No, no, this metaphor is a bit too much."

"After all, the entire drama has not been officially aired yet."

"And it's not that bad anyway. It's obvious that everyone from the director to the screenwriter and actors put a lot of effort into it."

"But the quality of the finished film is a little uncertain."

"What I am most worried about is the plot. This fictional historical drama is actually not fresh anymore."

"But the fictional background can give the screenwriter more room to play."

"But it can also easily make the plot too floating, without the historical weight of a political drama."

"I have no doubt that the war scenes in this drama will be quite grand and realistic, but for a political drama, the battle of wits is the most important part of the plot."

"I'm not saying it's bad, but judging from the information released, it's hard to be completely reassured. The political conspiracy part is a little too mediocre."

……

The reason why Yiguo was doing a live broadcast this time was because of her latest video which she released two days ago.

The content is very simple, just like in the past, some predictions about the new drama.

Throughout the end of August, and even in September, the only works worth discussing are "The Power of the World" and Xu Kong's "The Beginning".

Needless to say, she was quite optimistic about Xu Kong's "The Beginning".

Judging from some of the trailers that have been released, it should be a refreshing suspense drama with a science fiction setting.

Especially the loop aspect, which made her look forward to what Xu Kong could come up with.

Mainly because of the two excellent works "Want to See You" and "The Long Season" before, Yiguo was almost not worried about the plot.

Although Xu Kong is not a director, he wrote the script himself.

The time-travel elements in "Want to See You" are enough to prove Xu Kong's ability to play these tricks. Although suspense is not the so-called key part, it is not a big problem.

Mainly because of the follow-up "The Long Season", it once again proved that Xu Kong, at least in this type of drama, does not need to worry about the plot handling and rhythm.

Just wait and watch it after it's aired, it's a must-watch anyway.

……

But in the other drama, “The Powerful World”, her attitude is a little different.

Although it looks very impressive, whether it is the investment or the cast, the publicity and promotion already has the style of a big production.

Yiguo, however, was still worried and pessimistic.

The reasons behind this are very complicated, and she also gave her own very detailed and objective analysis.

But there are still many people who think that she has received money from Xu Kong, which is why she is doing this to praise one and step down on the other.

During this period, various grievances between the two dramas, as well as some conspiracy theories in public opinion, have appeared very frequently.

This resulted in Yiguo having to come out and clarify the matter personally.

Although she said at the beginning that these were just her predictions, she would have to wait until the two dramas were officially aired to verify whether her speculations were correct.

But obviously, many people almost ignored the premise that she stated several times before watching her video.

"Anyway, many people don't believe me when I tell them, so let's wait until the two dramas are officially aired before we say anything."

"If I really guessed wrong, I can just apologize then."

Yiguo said indifferently again.

She doesn't care about the so-called slap in the face.

Anyway, if this drama "The Power of the World" is of really high quality when it is broadcast and becomes a hit or something, she will probably have to make a separate video to promote it.

At that time, she wouldn't mind apologizing to the drama crew and helping promote the friendship.

Yiguo has been able to achieve a network-wide following of over 60 million top film and television bloggers, and has also developed its own way of dealing with these public opinions.

That is to ensure absolute sincerity at all times.

This is indeed her ultimate move.
