Huayu: Traffic is king

Chapter 60: Promotional Campaign (Part )

"Gu Jingyi, hello!"

Shen Yue playfully greeted Gu Jingyi. The low-budget web drama they had collaborated on a few months ago had been a hit. Besides Gu Jingyi, Shen Yue also received considerable support.

Fame nourishes people, and Shen Yue's star temperament has become more and more obvious during this period.

"You can see the promotion for 'Idol Producer' everywhere lately. I called you too."

Shen Yue arched his brows and began to take credit.

As early as January 1, after the theme song of "Idol Producer" was announced, it quickly became a hot topic.

Many big stars in the circle have started to cheer for "Idol Producer".

Chinese brother Zheng Ruibin had big names like Lin Junjie and Ruan Jingtian cheering him on, while Juexing Oriental trainees had teacher Yangyang cheering them on.

Cai Xukun has the support of Shang Wenjie, and Fan Chengcheng has his sister and Da Hei Niu cheering him on.

A star-studded gathering of first- and second-tier celebrities.

As for Gu Jingyi, who was also a hot favorite, only Shen Yue gave him a call on Weibo at that time.

At that time, "A Little Thing Called First Love" had just been aired and was not as popular as it is now. Among the many celebrities, Shen Yue was even a relatively unknown star.

But Gu Jingyi still remembered this friendship.

"Long time no see," he greeted Shen Yue with a smile.

After the two parties met, they took the elevator up with their assistants.

There is still an hour before the official start, and by the time the two of them have completed the entire building-sweeping process, the time will be almost over.

Shen Yue was still filming the new version of "Meteor Garden" at that time, and her black hair and bangs made her look particularly young.

When the time reaches 3:30, today's live broadcast of the building tour officially begins.

"Let's get started. Let's welcome Gu Jingyi and Shen Yue to the Sina Weibo live broadcast room. Please say hello to the netizens in front of the screen!"

Gu Jingyi and Shen Yue sat together behind the camera, and today's live broadcast of the building tour officially began.

"Hello everyone, I'm Gu Jingyi, who plays Jiang Chen in A Little Thing Called First Love."

Gu Jingyi smiled and waved.

"Hello, I'm Shen Yue, who plays Chen Xiaoxi in A Little Thing Called First Love."

Shen Yue also sat on the side, greeting the audience in a formal manner.

"Welcome both teachers to our livestream. Let's begin today's first session. It's the fan Q&A session. First, please share what kind of image you have of the other person's character. Let's follow the order in which you introduced yourselves just now. Jingyi, you go first."

The host took the cue card and started the first process of the day.

"As for Chen Xiaoxi, she's a very lovely girl. She's very brave and kind, and Jiang Chen has always had clues about his feelings for her. It's just that Jiang Chen is too cold, and would rather let the misunderstanding go unspoken."

"As for Jiang Chen, there's really no need to explain him. He's the cool, handsome, and well-educated campus idol. He's also a bit reserved and prone to jealousy."

Shen Yue also had dimples on her lips and smiled sweetly.

"Really? If Jiang Chen is so good, how could Wu Bosong have been so close to succeeding in stealing him?"

Gu Jingyi looked at Shen Yue and asked.

"Ah, the plot~ And to be honest, I really think Chen Xiaoxi is just an ordinary girl. Jiang Chen falling in love with her really has the aura of a heroine."

Shen Yue covered her mouth and smiled slightly with her head down.

As actors, even if their relationship in private isn't as close as they appear now, when the drama is really promoted, the CP feeling between the two is still overwhelming. The petite Shen Yue sitting next to the 185cm Gu Jingyi, the size difference alone is very attractive.

What's more, "A Little Thing Called First Love" is nearing its end, and the characters' emotions are gradually becoming clearer.

In the Sina Weibo live broadcast room, some girls who have watched "A Little Thing Called First Love" couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

For a contemporary idol drama, CP is also the most important element that can attract the attention of the topic.

Almost every hit drama is inseparable from the CP feeling between the leading actors.

Gu Jingyi joined "Idol Producer" just two days after the show started. This was also the first time he and Shen Yue were together during the broadcast.

The "Happy Camp" that I went on with Xiao Mei Hao were all stocks before the broadcast. It just ended a few days ago and some CP fans who were eager to be fed started celebrating the New Year in the super topic.

While Gu Jingyi was filming "Idol Producer," his Weibo account was temporarily managed by the production team. He couldn't post the usual chats or behind-the-scenes footage of the show, which was a real worry for the crew.

Huace proposed creating Weibo accounts with the character names of "Jiang Chen" and "Chen Xiaoxi", where the characters would act like real people to carry out various interactions.

After considering it for a while, the production team reluctantly adopted this compromise.

After Gu Jingyi's "Idol Producer" was broadcast, especially after being abused by fans.

His superficial popularity gradually faded and most of his fans were "girlfriend fans" with extremely high fighting power.

Naturally, they are happy to see this kind of character Weibo replacing the real star Weibo interaction. No one likes their idol's name to appear together with another woman every day.

Although "A Little Thing Called First Love" did not hype up any CP, it did not affect its declining popularity.

Gu Jingyi’s fans are also following the show and contributing a lot of effort.

This also made Lin Ze, the agent who has been closely following "A Little Thing Called First Love", breathe a sigh of relief. Not hyping up the CP is actually more convenient. It saves the step of "purification" of the actors after the show is broadcast.

"What about Jingyi? Do you also think Chen Xiaoxi is ordinary?"

The host smiled and asked.

"In fact, I think Chen Xiaoxi is not ordinary at all. She has courage that most people don't have. No matter how many setbacks she encounters, she will always walk towards Jiang Chen unwaveringly."

Gu Jingyi also looked serious. He sat on the sofa and expressed his opinions to the camera.

"Compared to Chen Xiaoxi being inseparable from Jiang Chen, I think Jiang Chen is the one who truly cannot live without Chen Xiaoxi. In 'A Little Thing Called First Love', Chen Xiaoxi openly loves Jiang Chen, while Jiang Chen has a secret crush on her. It's the kind of crush that deceives everyone except himself. In fact, his love for her is no less than Chen Xiaoxi's."

The host was on top of it, and she directly brought up the controversial segment that was aired yesterday.

"Really? We all know that 'A Little Thing Called First Love' is now more than halfway through its run. There's been some controversy online about Jiang Chen sending Chen Xiaoxi home and letting her get out to push the stroller, as well as asking her to apologize for no apparent reason. People think Chen Xiaoxi is being too humble. Jingyi, could you share your thoughts on this? As the character actor, what do you think?"

Gu Jingyi thought for a moment before speaking slowly, "Jiang Chen's concern for her was actually awkward. I believe everyone who watched the entire clip should know this. He was sending Chen Xiaoxi home, and Chen Xiaoxi was shy and embarrassed to sit in the passenger seat, so another girl took it."

"Chen Xiaoxi and Jiang Chen were unaware of their relationship, and she was caught in a conflict. She was too embarrassed to point it out to him, but she was also very concerned. Jiang Chen noticed it in the rearview mirror, so he used the excuse of pushing the cart as an excuse to let her sit in the passenger seat."

"Chen Xiaoxi was too slow-witted, or perhaps she simply couldn't imagine that Jiang Chen's love for her was no less than hers. Then, when they got in the car, they were very polite, which made Jiang Chen feel awkward. Before getting off the car, she kept hearing the second male lead using his drunken state to show concern."

"He couldn't hold back his jealousy anymore. After getting off the car, he said a lot to Chen Xiaoxi, but she didn't understand what he meant. He is also a rather selfish person and didn't know how to express himself, so he just said "Apologize to me". They are a match made in heaven. Chen Xiaoxi can tolerate everything about Jiang Chen, and Jiang Chen can see the good in Chen Xiaoxi."

After speaking for a long time, Gu Jingyi smiled and drank a sip of water from the thermos.

Shen Yue also took the opportunity to chime in and said, "If Jiang Chen really didn't like Chen Xiaoxi at all, she would have run away long ago."

The promotional tour started at 3:30 and ended at 6:00. After the two took turns answering some questions, they took some photos of the sales materials for subsequent promotion.

The building tour was finally completed. Both parties brought their teams and the staff from Weibo to have dinner together before the whole process was completed.
