Huayu's rise from top star to best actor

Chapter 291 The Fashion Circle is Still the Entertainment Circle
The character of Ling Buyi is very complicated. His original name is Huo Wushang. He has a deep blood feud and his entire family was wiped out. He exchanged identities with the son of his enemy.

On the eve of his wedding, he killed his nominal father, who was actually his enemy.

That was a highlight scene.

Lei Zi's scene can be said to be the best performance in his acting career. This is why Ling Buyi has become his representative role. Because his acting skills have matured, he also performed well in the movie with Lao Hu.

It’s just that it’s still a long time before we can shoot that scene.

I estimate that the scene will be more than a month later.

In the RV, Xu Yien prepared a stove for himself.

Get off the car, find a place to put it, and burn some coal.

In my free time, I sit around the fire with Guo Tao, Li Yunrui and others to make tea and chat.

Unfortunately, the tea I brought today was jasmine tea, and it tasted a bit bitter when I brewed it.

You still have to boil the water on the grill before adding the tea leaves to brew.

Li Yunrui looked at the grill on the stove and said, "Brother, can this stove be used to grill meat?"

"Why not? Of course." Xu Yien put an orange on it.

Li Yunrui asked again: "Can oranges be delicious if they are roasted?"

"Hey, Xiao Rui, you don't understand. It's delicious." Guo Tao rubbed his hands and said, "Then Yi En, you have to be prepared. I heard you are a good cook. How about trying your barbecue?"

"You know a little bit about cooking, right?" Xu Yien raised his eyebrows.

Li Yunrui also smiled innocently: "I want to eat barbecue too, hehehe~"

"Okay." Xu Yien agreed. "I'll buy more so that everyone can eat. The only problem is that the stove is a little small."

Guo Tao swallowed his saliva just thinking about it, it was definitely delicious, and laughed: "Well, it's okay, as long as it can be baked~"

"I'll let you try it tonight." Xu Yien picked up the stainless steel teacup and took a sip.

Then the mask of pain appeared.

Oh my god, it’s so hard.

I guess it will be better the second time.

This stove costs about a hundred dollars.

It is also great for grilling.

Let’s implement the barbecue plan in the evening.

I sent a WeChat message and asked Liu Cheng to go to the market to buy some fresh meat and various ingredients needed for barbecue.

It’s not that I can’t afford barbecue, but it’s more fulfilling and fun to grill it yourself. Even if it’s not as delicious as those sold in stores, it’s clearly clean and hygienic.

A few people were drinking tea here, while Zeng Li, Bao Jianfeng, Zhao Lusi and others were shooting some short business videos like Douyin.

Needless to say, Zeng Li and Bao Jianfeng have been friends for many years and are also deeply tied together.

Bao Jianfeng always brags about how beautiful Zeng Li is, saying that it is a blessing to be able to see her up close, and that the two will collaborate in the subsequent film "Camp with Love".

In short, the crew is like this. If everyone hangs out together, then the relationship is fine, but there will still be differences in closeness and distance. Xu Yien rarely chats with them. Chatting with them is not as good as chatting with Guo Tao, because Guo Tao really has works. What are these other two?

"The oranges are baked. Yien, do you want some?"

"If you like, you can eat it, Uncle Tao."

Guo Tao said happily: "Hey! Then I won't be polite!"

Li Yunrui laughed beside him, "Haha."

He drank a sip of the brewed jasmine tea.

The taste in my mouth and the expression on my face were full of bitterness.

"What's wrong?" Guo Tao was eating roasted oranges and didn't notice it. He just saw Li Yunrui's strange expression.

Li Yunrui frowned but didn't answer. Guo Tao picked up the teacup and drank it, and his expression became the same as Li Yunrui's.

"This...this tea is quite strong!"

"Hahaha, just drink the second cup and it will be fine." Xu Yien waved his hand, picked up the teacup and continued drinking.

The second brew is a fairy product.

It has both the fragrance of tea and the light fragrance of jasmine. The two aromas are fresh and long-lasting, and the taste is mellow and refreshing.
Xu Yien shook his head and said with an expression of enjoyment: "I am so impressed, so impressed~"

……

……

The filming crew sent by "ELLE" has completed their 7-day quarantine and can finally start work.

"Hello, Teacher Xu. It's an honor to work with you."

"Teacher Xu, you are so handsome."

"As expected of a top star, he's incredibly handsome!"

Xu Yien said modestly: "Thank you very much, let's get started."

"OK~"

Burberry has money and promotion, but it is not the most willing to spend.

However, the treatment given to Xu Yien is extremely high, and the reason for signing the endorsement contract is not only for the money, but also for these treatments.

The brand that is most willing to spend money on artist treatment is Louis Vuitton, but Louis Vuitton is a card holder, especially in the domestic entertainment industry.

For example, in the Korean entertainment industry, LV doesn’t block people.

Again.

The domestic entertainment market is too big, the mainland market is too big. When you choose a star, many people think that he is not at that level, so it is naturally impossible to give him the best title.

Didn’t you see that when Coco was the spokesperson for Chanel, she was dismissed by the wealthy ladies in Hong Kong and only served as the spokesperson for one quarter? Because China is the number one market for luxury goods, the audience will think that the spokesperson you choose has no taste, and naturally only give the spokesperson to close friends and ambassadors to reap the fans' leeks.

Why do foreign entertainment stars, especially Korean entertainment stars, get good titles?
Forget about international fame, except for BTS and BP, the rest are no different from trash.

Jackson Wang can hold concerts with crowds of 99 to people in North and South America. % of Korean celebrities can’t do that.

BTS's Kim Taehyung was crushed by Jackson Wang in the international market.

Not to mention those so-called second, third, fourth, and fifth generation groups that Korean entertainment fans praise. They spend a lot of money on publicity for their concerts in the United States. Are they making money? Just don't lose money.

It’s just that Korean entertainment stars have a lot of fans in mainland China, and they are very crazy.

Even worthless small cards can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan each, so the purchasing power of luxury goods is naturally beyond doubt.

Most Korean entertainment stars don’t rely on international fame to get endorsements, but on Chinese fans.

For example, SM’s new boy group got the endorsement of Louis Vuitton when they debuted.

why?
This is because all luxury brands know that SM is the company that values ​​the Chinese market and fans the most. Even if it is a piece of shit, it can still attract a lot of fans in China.

Chinese fans are very superstitious about SM, but in fact, SM is not as good as Hybe now.

But where there is demand, there is a market. Chinese fans just like SM, so naturally we have to take advantage of this.

This is called buying stocks, investing in advance. If you are not popular now, I will sign you for a few years in advance. You can brag about my name, but if you are not popular, I will kick you out.

This is essentially a different logic from when BTS got the full endorsement from the Louis Vuitton Group.

Because this group of people is indeed popular internationally and can indeed create extremely high value.

But then again.

These people in the Korean entertainment industry have obtained titles, but most of them have endorsement fees far lower than those of domestic entertainment stars.

Internationally renowned stars like Park Chae-young and Jeon Jungkook only earn 600-800 million per year in the domestic entertainment industry, not to mention the rest.

The endorsement fee is low, so the treatment is naturally low.

In Korean entertainment, except for BP, BTS and EXO's Kim Jong-in, the rest of the people basically have no popularity.

Korean stars are rarely promoted by magazines, have no advertising, and have low endorsement fees, so they can only boast of a title.

It's not Rain, who could have gotten several endorsements in China thanks to "Full House".

Back then, many domestic entertainment stars didn’t have many endorsements themselves, and there were a bunch of Korean stars eyeing them.

In that era, a star was considered very popular if he or she had five or six endorsements.

Count them carefully.

I knew there weren’t many endorsements back then.

If Xu Yien wasn’t an old player of Gouba, he really wouldn’t know how many endorsements those popular stars back then had.

Jay Chou has several well-known endorsements: Metersbonwe, Sony mobile phones, Ulemei, Emma electric vehicles, Sprite, and Kebike.

Leehom Wang: Wahahaha, Luyuan electric vehicles, McDonald's, Coca-Cola, Head & Shoulders.

Luo Zhu: Dicos, Lays potato chips, Pepsi, Chocolatier, Rejoice, Dances with Wolves.

The statistics are all based on advertisements on mainland TV and promotions, because Wanwan's endorsement fee is very low. Even for a first-line singer of their status, it is only around 2 million RMB.

Because the market is so tiny.

David Tao? He only had some influence in the past with Sprite, but he never got any endorsements later.

If it was really red, it wouldn’t be called Hu Tao.

The "red" here refers to popularity and widespread fame.

It was the era of Tieba, which can be seen from the Tieba data.

Jay Chou is a huge gap. He has more than three million followers on his forum. Not to mention the main forum, just the Lao Gou forum, where black fans gather, has a considerable amount of traffic. Wang Leehom has 80, Zhu has 76, and SHE has 69.

At that time, a star with four or five endorsements was considered the most popular, especially if the contract was for several years.

There are basically no mainland celebrities who have double-digit endorsements at the same time, and even if there are, they are probably out-of-date Hong Kong stars.

Because it is cheap, easy to use and well-known.

As long as the cooperation is good, it can continue.

Most mainland celebrities have two or three endorsements, or they sign one endorsement for many years.

For example, Xu Qing has been the spokesperson for Lulu Almond Milk for 20 years.

That's different now.

China's few top artists basically have a dozen or twenty endorsements, but they only last for one or two years.

But the number is too large. As long as the popularity is maintained, there will be more than 20 every year. Isn’t it a lot of money?
Yang Zi earned 800 million yuan for one endorsement, and thanks to "Chang Xiang Si", she gained more than a dozen endorsements and made a fortune.

While my mind is wandering.

Xu Yien was also shooting for ELLE, wearing the latest collection of De Beers jewelry and the latest season of Burberry ready-to-wear, and striking the poses requested by the photographers.

When celebrities shoot magazines and promote brands, it is actually a form of advertising.

In other words, a “model”;
Why does Gong Jun like to be in the fashion circle?
Because he is a model and his fashion sense is indeed very good, but that does not conflict with his poor acting skills.

Even after becoming famous, he didn't study acting seriously.

I was only busy shooting magazines and commercials.

The work will naturally fail because you have no intention of acting well. If you don’t act well, the fashion circle will abandon you sooner or later.

When you are needed, you are the best treated fashion prince.

Are you unable to do it?

Then it's a bust.

This is the reality of the fashion world.

The fashion industry still values ​​performance and exposure.

The fashion industry is essentially the film and television industry.
