Chinese entertainment started with male models

Chapter 337 Who is playing hooligan?
IG's victory in the global finals is not only a milestone in the history of Chinese e-sports, but also a phenomenal national carnival, completely "breaking the circle" and entering the mainstream vision.

Not long after the game ended, IG-related terms occupied 10 of the top 8 hot searches on Weibo.

A bunch of non-esports players also reposted the message to celebrate, and "IG is awesome" became the hottest slogan of the night.

It’s not just the explosion of social media.

Even the next day, CCTV reported the event with the title "Chinese Team Wins the Championship", which was the first time that e-sports appeared in prime time on national mainstream media.

Afterwards, official media such as People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency published congratulatory articles, with rare use of words such as "historic breakthrough" and "a new chapter in e-sports" in the titles.

It wasn't just online. At the moment of winning, dormitories in many universities across the country burst into collective cheers, and it felt like the Chinese national football team had won the World Cup.

This extremely exaggerated wave of traffic that breaks the circle is obviously quite eye-catching.

However, in the entertainment industry, the only person who can truly enjoy this wave of traffic and have a strong presence is Bai Liang.
Regardless of the fun of watching the game offline or his previous identity as a professional mid-lane player with a 100% win rate for IG, he can get a share of this wave of traffic.

However, Bai Liang did not participate in the subsequent e-sports fans' carnival tonight, as well as Wang Sicong's online coin-giving and lottery draws and other follow-up activities.

After the game, he celebrated with the IG players for a while, then went to the commentary booth to chat for a while, and was then taken to SM company by Song Qian.

Although the name of this company is strange, it is well-known in the Korean entertainment industry and even in the domestic entertainment industry.

It is one of the most representative entertainment agencies in South Korea and was founded by founder Lee Soo-man in 1995.

Girls' Generation, the girl group that Lin Yu'er, who previously filmed with her in "The Legend of Zhao Zilong", is in, was once extremely popular, and is from this company.

Oh yes, those four returning boys are also from the EXO group of this company.

Including Han Gen, who is a little older, and is also from SM company.

At the same time, Bai Liang also witnessed the terrifying strength of Korean trainees.

He and Song Qian arrived at their company so late, and there were actually a lot of people inside. The lights were brightly on, and many boys and girls were still sweating in the practice rooms.

However, Bai Liang didn't see any popular Korean idols during this trip.

There was only one girl who greeted Song Qian very respectfully, a girl named Bae Joo-hyun, who seemed somewhat familiar.

In Korea, even if Bai Liang is not face-blind, he seems to have a bit of prosopagnosia.

"You are so prestigious. Everyone bows and greets you."

Seeing Bai Liang's thumbs up, Song Qian was not proud, but a little embarrassed. She lowered her voice and whispered to him, "It's like this in Korea. The senior culture is so special, which is actually not a good thing. Many bullying incidents are caused by this kind of thing."

"Should I adapt to local customs?"

"Ah?" Song Qian was stunned for a moment, but she quickly responded with a smile, "Then you don't have to bow, just call me sister~"

Bai Liang: "You misunderstood. I meant to ask them to come and bow to me. Since they are here, they should feel the local characteristics."

"That's a nice thought~"

They found a practice room, closed the door, and then Song Qian pulled the large glass blinds. Suddenly, people outside could not see what was going on inside.

Next is the time to teach dancing step by step~
Time flies, more than an hour later
"Dingling bell~Dingling bell~"

Originally, Bai Liang didn't want to answer the call, after all, the timing was so damn good.

At this time, he and Song Qian were practicing dancing while sweating profusely.

However, when he saw that the caller ID was Guo Fan, he was worried that the other party had something important to say, so he hesitated for two seconds before finally answering the phone.

As a result, Guo Fan on the other end of the phone said to him: "IG is awesome!"

Hiss. Get out!

Guo Fan shouted "IG is awesome", which made Bai Liang lose all his feeling.

damn thing.
However, Song Qian didn't care too much, "This competition is so popular!"

"Esports is actually quite fair. Strength speaks for itself. If you are good, you are good. If you are not good, you are not good."

Song Qian nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but she also raised questions with a smile.

"Yes, yes. No, no. So what did you mean by taking a break?"

Bai Liang: Ah, this~ dancing is really difficult, he just wanted to be lazy.

It’s so annoying ~ It’s all Guo Fan’s fault.

Guo Fan: Ah, this.
In fact, he didn’t make this call because he loves e-sports, but mainly because Yan Zi took over part of the publicity business of "The Wandering Earth".

She bought advertising for the finals.

very expensive!
Even if someone you know offers a discount, the price is still a gamble.

But there is no doubt that this wave of huge profits is not a loss.

Among the top ten hot searches, IG accounted for eight, and the remaining two were "The Wandering Earth" and Bai Liang's postgraduate entrance examination.

The group of e-sports fans actually has a high degree of overlap with the target audience group of "The Wandering Earth".

Those who join in the fun on Weibo are most likely neither interested in e-sports nor interested in science fiction.

But the guys who play games are still very interested in this kind of hardcore subject matter.

From the changes in the number of viewers during the live broadcast period, it can be seen that the decrease in audience traffic when the promotional video of "The Wandering Earth" was broadcast was not that large.

A considerable number of viewers watched the promotional video after one game ended and before the second game started.

After celebrating IG's victory, many people also remembered this movie that will be released during this year's Spring Festival.

The planetary engine in the trailer is really impressive!
And there is also everyone’s old acquaintance Bai Liang.

Some time ago, he wore the IG uniform and controlled the lightning in the professional arena~
E-sports fans: You have to go and watch this~ Bai Liang is also from the IG team.

The next day, Capital Airport.

"Brother Xiaobai, how was your dancing practice yesterday?" asked Yan Zi who came to pick us up at the airport.

"It's okay~" Bai Liang yawned, indicating that dancing was really tiring.

Fortunately, Song Qian did not fool him and made his movements as simple as possible.

Do you know pole dancing?

Bai Liang is not practicing this, he is practicing that steel pipe.

The main dance moves were performed by Song Qian, and he was mainly responsible for coordination.

But Song Qian is definitely a very good dance teacher. After just one night of practice, she made Bai Liang feel that dancing is quite interesting!

As we all know, interest is the best teacher.

The trick is that she designed a very exciting dance move to let Bai Liang slap her butt.

To be honest, this action would be quite rogue if it were done somewhere else.

So Bai Liang pretended at first to say that this was inappropriate.
But Song Qian asked him to practice several times, and then recorded a short clip with her mobile phone to the music and showed it to him. It actually had a lot of stage tension and the visual effect was also quite good.

Dancing is good! You have to learn to dance~
This guy is just openly taking advantage of the girl on the stage, and she even praises you after he’s done it!
It was only after practicing for many times that Song Qian told him:
In fact, it’s not really patting the butt, it’s patting the hips.

Patting the hips is a dance move, and patting the butt for better stage effects is considered hooliganism.

Bai Liang: Why didn’t you say so earlier?!
So the question is, who can tell now who is being a hooligan?
"I'm leaving now. We'd better practice again on the day we're going to perform on New Year's Eve. Then we can meet earlier in Star City." Song Qian said goodbye to Bai Liang.

Her condition was also strange. She was yawning all the time, but she seemed to be in good spirits. She looked tired but her face was rosy.

"Okay, but you have to bring Sister Meng along, and I have to practice singing with her a little bit."

"Ziyi, sure. She and I are from the same company, and she is my junior sister. I will guide her when the time comes."

Song Qian obviously knew what Sister Meng's singing sounded like, and her expression became unnatural.

"Brother Xiaobai, thank you for your hard work"

Yan Zi watched the two people say goodbye, and then looked at how tired they were, so she said with some emotion after Song Qian left.

Bai Liang waved his hand, indicating that since it was work, it was reasonable for him to work harder.

After all, Song Qian didn't lie, she really could eat a large loaf of bread in two mouthfuls.

Two days later, Bai Liang met the little girl Zhao Jinmai whom he had not seen for a long time in Yangcheng.

To be precise, she is no longer a little girl now.

It feels like I haven't seen her for just over a year, but she has changed a lot.

In the words of the elderly at home: it's time to draw a line~
When he was in the crew of "The Wandering Earth", Bai Liang always thought that she was just a little kid, and even felt that she had a milky smell.

But when I saw her again today, she actually had a bit of a grown-up vibe to her.

She poked it there playfully, and it was particularly bright.

"elder brother!"

After seeing Bai Liang, Zhao Jinmai's first reaction was to shout this sentence with a little excitement, and then she became reserved.

She wore a white T-shirt, a pleated skirt, and a pair of flat white sneakers. She looked youthful, and the light makeup on her face was just right.
"I was wondering why he looks so mature. Is he a child learning how to put on makeup like an adult?" Bai Liang said he solved the case!

Oh, I even put on lipstick~
This feeling is very similar to when I was a child playing house at a female classmate's house and she secretly wore my mother's high heels.

"I'm an adult. I'm seventeen."

When Bai Liang touched her head, Zhao Jinmai blushed and muttered softly.

"Nonsense, you're only sixteen~"

"I'll be seventeen in a few days!"

Although in Bai Liang's eyes he had not seen Zhao Jinmai for just over a year, in fact, during this period of time, this little girl had already completed her "transformation".

When she made the movie, she was not yet in high school, but now she is in her second year of high school.

The difference between high school students and junior high school students is indeed a little bit big~
At the same time, her age is also the stage when "girls change a lot when they grow up" is most likely to be reflected.

"There's still a month left. Why are you in such a hurry? When you're my age, you'll want to calculate time to the nearest day."

I feel like only children look forward to growing up.

Just like Zhao Jinmai, he insisted on emphasizing that he was already seventeen years old and would soon become an adult and no longer a kid.

But when you get older, you might start calling yourself a baby who is over 300 months old.

"Brother, you're not that old either," Zhao Jinmai said quickly, seeming to be quite concerned about this topic.

"In my mother's eyes, I'm almost 40 years old. Your father is 40 years old this year, right?" Bai Liang pretended to sigh.

Then he started to trick Zhao Jinmai into calling him uncle
It’s a pity that the little girl didn’t fall for it and kept calling him brother, being extremely determined.

This made Bai Liang's plan to improve his seniority fail.

Okay~
Because he suddenly remembered that he was now the spokesperson for Mercedes-Benz, an uncle who drove a Mercedes-Benz? Zhao Jinmai seemed to be about the same age as Xia Shu.

Tsk, that’s unlucky.

Bai Liang and Zhao Jinmai came to Yangcheng today to participate in a variety show on Tencent.

The male and female protagonists of "The Wandering Earth" joined together to promote the show~
But this program is a little different from ordinary programs.

There are a lot of people! So many people!

There were about one hundred and fifty artists participating.

When he first heard Yan Zi’s introduction, Bai Liang was still wondering what kind of program format would require so many people?

The answer is: hold a sports meeting.

A youth sports and entertainment crossover event program jointly produced by Tencent Video, Tencent Sports and JD.com.

"Supernova Games".

It is common for artists to do things in their respective fields such as film, television, and music, but this is the first time that they have collectively crossed over to become athletes and stepped onto the field.

It might be because Bai Liang had indeed made a big splash in sports before.

There are e-sports and basketball, not to mention the sports variety shows produced by Tencent.

This year's Spring Festival Gala programs are all related to basketball. He is going to perform a creative program with Zhu Yilong.

Fancy basketball, cool street dance and passionate music, a three-in-one interpretation of "Youth Leaps Up".

Looking at these adjectives, Bai Liang knew that his grandmother loved to watch it. There was nothing much to say, so just go.

As for this "Supernova Games", the reason why he was willing to come was that he thought it was quite lively and there were many acquaintances there.

On the other hand, it is naturally for the promotion of the movie.

The stadium where the program is recorded also has advertising space, and the posters of "The Wandering Earth" are already hanging there, which means everyone has to go.

The same goes for Zhao Jinmai.

The main purpose of this trip is to promote the movie.

But the little girl was still worried, "Can there be shots for 150 artists?"

"Do you need some life advice from your brother?"

“I need it!”

"This show is different. It's not a talent show. As long as you win, you will definitely be on camera! Regardless of whether it's e-sports or sports competition, to some extent, it all depends on your ability."

Zhao Jinmai's expression became even more bitter as he was still talking. "I'm not an adult yet. I don't have the strength~"

There are so many artists, and you want to let an underage girl compete with others?
That would be too difficult for her. Zhao Jinmai said that she was not an athlete.

When she was filming for The Wandering Earth, the heavy costumes almost crushed her.
Bai Liang was still very considerate and decided to find some familiar young ladies to take care of her.

Although the list of artists for this program was very long, he still saw many names that he recognized or was quite familiar with.
