Chapter 72: Am I destined to be a wife-friendly woman?
In this year 2004.

The three major portals still firmly occupy half of the mainland Internet.

Less than a year after Baidu Tieba was established, Penguin has not yet launched the personalized space business. As for non-mainstream and Shamatte, they are still in their infancy and few people pay attention to them.

It's not just forums, blogs and porn sites that are popular on the Internet; online romance has also become very common among young netizens.

With so many people in love, the number of people who have suffered from heartbreak is of course particularly large.

Some people don't even know what the other person looks like or whether they are a man or a woman, but that doesn't stop them from using their imagination to fantasize about a perfect lover.

Many of these young people are the target audience of the song "Gray Head".

The lyrics "Your grey avatar won't beat anymore, even for a simple greeting" really touched their hearts, and they all fell into an EMO state after listening to it.

Just over ten hours have passed since the music commercial MV was released.

The wave that the song "Gray Head" created in Hong Kong was limited to the Anglican Trinity College and a few students in the surrounding middle schools, and it was not possible to see much effect.

In the mainland, thanks to the lack of language barriers and a very large Internet user base, many netizens have mentioned the song "Gray Avatar" on forums, BBS and blogs.

As for Fan Wumian himself, only some girls posted screenshots and asked who he was, but the number of replies to the post was very small.

Instead, it was Zuo Ziyan who was invited by Fan Wumian to help.

With her extremely high looks and the youthful, beautiful, rich and beautiful temperament, she instantly attracted a large number of old perverts, who took screenshots of her photos and reposted them everywhere, creating a heated discussion.

These beautiful photos of his girlfriend left Fan Wumian speechless.

The most obvious difference in popularity is that when he searches for the keyword "Zuo Ziyan", he can retrieve more than 600 results from Baidu, while when he searches for "Fan Wumian", he only finds more than 90 results.

This can be seen.

There was obviously some heat, but most of it didn't reach him.

Suddenly, he had the urge to light up a cigarette and take a deep puff. Fan Wumian took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Again? I'm tired. Let's destroy it."

Fortunately, he knew very well that similar situations existed in the film and television industry.

It is much easier for beautiful girls to become famous than for handsome guys. Some young actresses can become extremely popular on the Internet with just a few selfies, but it is difficult to find their real representative works.

It is more difficult for men to get to the top, as they not only need good looks, but also acting skills, talent, high emotional intelligence, luck, hype, etc. Without the help of capital, it is difficult to carve out a path for themselves.

Given Zuo Ziyan's image, it is normal that she is popular among netizens.

She became popular because she is beautiful enough, not because she took away the traffic that should have belonged to Fan Wumian.

In fact, judging from the current trends on the Internet.

Fan Wumian felt that this advertising MV would probably be made popular by Zuo Ziyan first, so that he could also benefit from it.

Of course.

In the eyes of many male netizens, he may be like a "transparent man" or a "background board".

Therefore, he decisively began to think of ways to save himself.

Now the work is already there and the image is not bad either, the only thing missing is a breath of fresh air.

fortunately.

This shortcoming can be solved by spending money.

After spending some time searching for the contact information on the Internet, Fan Wumian personally pretended to be the record company's agent and discussed with the forum administrator how to place the advertisement. He was worried that the other party would not read the message and reply, so he got straight to the point and asked about the price first.

The forum administrators he contacted via private messages included the "Sina Forum", the "Penguin QQ Discussion Group", and many popular Baidu forums.

The users of these selected forums are mostly young girls, and most of them are fans of female singers, including the Princess Forum, SEH Forum, Cai Linyi Forum, Super Girl Forum, etc.

After sending private messages to each one and asking about the price of advertising, Fan Wumian started writing his resume while waiting for a reply.

In terms of achievements, the only things mentioned were the original singer of "Gray Avatar", the columnist of "Hui Wen Daily", the upcoming release of her personal album "That Girl", and the first place winner of the Yau Tsim Mong Secondary School Singing Competition.

Add your name, height, weight and other information, plus a recent handsome photo, to make your resume look presentable.

The current focus is that no one knows him, so Fan Wumian has to pay for traffic out of his own pocket.

I want to do some pre-promotion before the album comes out, try to take advantage of the popularity of the "Gray Avatar" advertising MV and attract some attention from passers-by fans.

In addition to post bars and forums.

He also took the initiative to contact several newspaper reporters, continuing to pretend to be an agent, and offered to pay for customized press releases.

This is not a random act. Most other new artists who want to become famous will also adopt similar methods. In many cases, learning how to hype up fame is more important than the work itself.

For example, Mai Shuli of Wangcai Capital.

If his father hadn't spent a lot of money to help pave the way, who would have nothing to do and would have been so crazy about praising him.

Before, Fan Wumian didn’t need to spend money on marketing himself.

Now with the advertising MV online and his first solo album about to be released, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and spend some money. He hasn't hired an agent in charge of public relations and marketing yet, so he has to think of a way on his own tonight, and has been working until after 9 o'clock in the evening.

It is easier to deal with the moderator of a Tieba forum. If you pay him one or two thousand yuan, he will guarantee that he will not let the post be buried.

After asking this question, Fan Wumian unexpectedly found out that the pinning function of Tieba has not been opened yet.

Forum administrators are more difficult to deal with.

It was just a pinned post for one day, but the administrator of Sina forum dared to ask for a sky-high price of 10 yuan.

Fan Wumian only replied that he would think about it again and had no intention of paying this money in vain.

If he hired a team of internet trolls, the money would be enough to spread his resume across all the school bulletin boards and forums across the country.

As for the Penguin QQ discussion group forum, the administrator also offered a price of 7 yuan for the top advertisement.

The users of this discussion group are relatively young and more valuable. After Fan Wumian bargained the price down to 5 yuan, he successfully completed the deal online.

After calculating the total price, I spent 7 yuan in just over three hours.

Finished with this.

After getting up and stretching his body, Fan Wumian continued to search the Internet for information, looking for a reliable agent.

He planned to seek help from headhunters to recruit talents from other companies. This time he was not managing a small workshop, and without some professional experience, it would be difficult for him to solve many troublesome matters.
In the blink of an eye, it was about 10 o'clock in the evening.

Fan Wumian finally turned off the computer and lay on the bed exhausted, thinking:

"I only liked two girls, but they both became famous before me. Am I destined to be a wife-lucky girl? It's so hard to debut. How many albums do I have to sell to earn back the publicity fee?"

I have classes tomorrow.

Fan Wumian was just about to take a shower and rest when the light outside the window suddenly lit up, followed by a loud thunder, which was extremely loud and rumbling.

Raindrops as big as soybeans hit the glass, and a thunderstorm came with strong winds.

I was so busy dealing with important matters that I didn't notice when the situation changed.

He calmly went to the bathroom to brush his teeth. During this time, another thunder sounded and all the lights in the house suddenly went out.

He rinsed his mouth in the dark and wiped his face.

Unable to figure out whether the fuse in his house was blown, Fan Wumian went to the balcony and looked around, and found that the power was also out in the surrounding blocks.

It's late at night, no electricity is a big deal.

Just as he was about to go back to his room to sleep, he caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye and was startled by the figure of a woman appearing on the balcony next door. He thought he had run into a ghost.

After looking carefully, I found that it was Zhuang Muxi again.

It was raining and windy outside, so it was not convenient to open the window to talk. Zhuang Muxi also saw Fan Wumian and shook the phone in his hand at him.

When Fan Wumian returned to his room in the dark and finished reading, he saw that she had sent him a text message a few minutes ago, which read: "Are you asleep?"

He replied to the text message and asked - "You're still awake so late, did the thunder wake you up?"

Soon, Zhuang Muxi sent a few more messages.

Written in succession -

"Yes, I am most afraid of thunderstorms and power outages."

"My parents are still in Kenting. They are taking my grandma to the hospital for a follow-up checkup. Can I ask you for a favor?"

"I'm a little scared being home alone, can you come over and chat with me? Crying."

Just as some people are afraid of heights, some are afraid of the deep sea, and some are afraid of confined spaces, there are many people who are afraid of thunder.

Think about doing good deeds every day and being helpful to others.

Fan Wumian immediately replied: "Okay, then open the door for me. Do you want me to bring you some snacks?"
