Zhang Qilin was somewhat surprised. Why was there only one reward?
There were no mistakes in today's interview, so why wasn't there a reward for the divination just now?
Then he remembered that he had an exclusive interview with the central media in a few days, so it seemed that the interview could only be released after this incident was completely over.
He was curious about the new destiny chart, and suddenly a message appeared before his eyes:
[Fragment of Xu Gong's Destiny in the North of the City (1/10)]
The entertainment industry's aesthetics are deliberately distorted. Activate the fragments (once a week), and your image will become an aesthetic benchmark, increasing the probability of being accepted and recognized by mainstream media or platforms (5%).
After collecting all ten fragments and fusing them into a destiny, you can activate it and gain authoritative endorsement, greatly increasing the chances of being accepted and recognized by mainstream media or platforms (50%), thus changing the public's preconceived notions.
When aesthetic distortion reaches a critical point, it may trigger a cultural awakening event (such as mainstream cultural institutions publishing a white paper and listing you as a typical case of a certain paradigm).
After reading the introduction, he felt somewhat disappointed.
He originally thought that this destiny would make him stand out more and be liked by more people.
Who would have thought that he would become a benchmark for aesthetics?
Given his current situation, if he were to become an aesthetic standard, who knows how much trouble awaits him.
This incident is a result of his unintentional recklessness leading to the current situation.
If it weren't for the endorsement of the Beijing People's Art Theatre, he wouldn't know how much effort he would have had to put in to get the media to focus on the actors.
Just because this fate is useless to him now doesn't mean it will be useless in the future.
He checked the time; it was time for rehearsal, that was his priority.
……
Pangu Seven Star Hotel.
The door to the private room on the 23rd floor was pushed open from the outside, and a waiter led in a girl wearing glasses.
Beside the floor-to-ceiling window, a three-tiered English silver pastry stand sits on an ebony coffee table.
A young girl dressed in a bright green dress sat in a large velvet chair.
The long dress has a cross-collar and right-fastening front, with the collar and sleeve edges embroidered with subtle patterns of the same color.
Wide sleeves piled up like clouds on the dark velvet chair surface.
She sat languidly, flipping through a book in her hand, her eyes never lifting.
The waiter led the girl with glasses closer and then withdrew.
"Boss, the matter is settled," Shen Ya said respectfully.
Dong Qiyu's gaze remained fixed on the pages of the book:
"How is the situation?"
"We only exchanged a few words; he did not acknowledge our identities."
"Didn't you say you were the most professional? You can't even handle this little thing?"
"Please give us a little more time, and we will take control of his fan base as soon as possible."
"It'd better be like you said, that my money isn't so easy to take."
"Boss, please rest assured, we will show you results as soon as possible."
"I hope so," Dong Qiyu closed the book, stood up and walked towards the door. "The tea and snacks on the table are yours."
Shen Ya looked at the exquisite pastries on the table, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she thanked them repeatedly:
"Thank you, boss."
Seeing Dong Qiyu disappear outside the door, she immediately took out her phone, opened QQ, and quickly typed in one of the groups:
"Pangu Seven Star Hotel, 23rd floor, window seat with view, classic afternoon tea experience, limited opening for photo opportunities, 50 RMB per person, book now."
……
18:00
Zhang Qilin returned to the courtyard.
He tidied himself up quickly and prepared to practice his lines.
Suddenly, his phone rang.
Zhang Qilin picked it up and saw that it was an unfamiliar Kyoto ship.
He didn't know who was calling, but he answered anyway.
A warm female voice came from the phone:
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhang Qilin?"
Zhang Qilin frowned but did not respond immediately.
In those days, phone calls weren't registered under real names, yet the other party could call him by his name directly, which made him wary.
The person on the other end asked twice more, and seeing that there was still silence on the other end of the phone, they seemed to remember something and quickly explained:
"Mr. Zhang Qilin, hello. I'm Li Yunyi from the Weibo operations department. May I speak with you?"
Upon hearing that the call was from Weibo, Zhang Qilin immediately realized that the other party must have found him through his registered mobile phone number.
Although he couldn't immediately verify the other party's identity, he decided to listen to their purpose first.
For many years to come, Weibo's traffic will remain dominant.
Establishing a partnership with them would be very helpful in maintaining one's own exposure.
Zhang Qilin asked in a low voice:
"Hello, how can I help you?"
"Excuse me, are you Zhang Qilin?" Li Yunyi asked to confirm.
"Yes."
"Mr. Zhang, would you be interested in developing a deeper collaboration with Weibo?"
"You need to contact the Beijing People's Art Theatre first. I'm an intern there, and I need the theatre's approval before I can collaborate with other platforms," Zhang Qilin said, dodging the question.
Regardless of whether what the other party said is true or false, he definitely won't gain anything by negotiating with Weibo alone.
Li Yunyi immediately replied:
"Mr. Zhang, I am calling you this time mainly to have an initial conversation with you and to express our platform's sincerity. After all, the foundation for future cooperation is first and foremost based on mutual understanding and willingness."
"As an open platform, Weibo is very willing to provide a broader space for showcasing talent and more precise traffic support for promising young actors like you. What do you think?"
Zhang Qilin said in a calm voice:
"Please go ahead, Mr. Li."
Li Yunyi explained in detail:
"Once you join our platform, we will grant you more officially recognized actor benefits, create exclusive online topic activities, and invite you to participate in online interviews or interactions planned by our platform."
"All of this is to help you better build your personal brand image."
"Thank you for your call, Mr. Li," Zhang Qilin said cautiously. "I have no objection to cooperating with your platform. As I just said, my current focus is on my internship at the Beijing People's Art Theatre, and all personal matters need to be handled according to the theatre's arrangements."
Li Yun immediately understood the meaning behind Zhang Qilin's words and said:
"Mr. Zhang, we will contact the Beijing People's Art Theatre tomorrow, and someone will be there to discuss cooperation matters with you further."
"Thank you, goodbye."
Zhang Qilin hung up the phone, and he wasn't surprised that Weibo had taken the initiative to contact him.
Unlike a few years later, Weibo is no longer the dominant force it will be in.
Currently, platforms such as Sina, Tencent, and NetEase are fiercely competing for users.
Support such a contrasting and compelling case.
This proves that Weibo is more than just a social tool.
It is also a platform that can create social hotspots and change personal destinies, thereby attracting more users to join.
Zhang Qilin picked up "Dream of the Red Chamber" and continued practicing his lines.
Meanwhile, in the office of Weibo's vice president.
Li Yun put down the phone and looked respectfully at the man sitting opposite him:
"Mr. Wang, the other party is very cautious and has tied themselves very closely to the Beijing People's Art Theatre."
Mr. Wang smiled slightly, his expression composed:
"As expected, this is a critical period for him. He can't say the wrong thing, or it will be misinterpreted. This kind of vigilant person who is not completely opposed to exposure is worth long-term observation and cultivation. We will send someone to contact the Beijing People's Art Theatre tomorrow."
"Understood," Li Yunyi replied, and then went to arrange the relevant matters.
