Chapter 578 Hot Search
Yacht Club.
Liu Yifei, who also attended the party yesterday, was wearing a black dress and a small straw hat. She was accompanied by only an assistant and took a car to the pier for the appointment.
Whether it was the Southeast Asian worker who was painting anti-corrosion paint on the dock, the tour guide who was calling to solicit tourists for going out to sea, or the young girl who had just got off the boat with unsteady steps, after seeing Liu Yifei, they all stared at her silently, and for a moment they forgot what they were doing.
If you want to know what it feels like to be beautiful, Liu Yifei has the right to speak on it.
In 2003, in order to promote the TV series "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", she appeared on "Entertainment Camp" with "heartthrob" Chen Hao, actress Liu Tao and others.
Both actresses are good-looking and are known for their sexy beauty, but when standing next to Liu Yifei, they look like country girls and can only become background members.
When it comes to female celebrities in the Chinese entertainment industry, which female celebrity are you most afraid of taking a photo with? Liu Yifei is definitely on the list.
Every time everyone attended an event, they were busy trying to stay as far away from her as possible, for fear that their photos would be taken and released for comparison. In the end, they gained nothing but their self-esteem was shattered.
Beauty is subjective, and different people have different standards and feelings about beauty.
Fan Wumian sometimes feels that her appearance is not that exaggerated, but to be fair, Liu Yifei does have a unique temperament, combining classical charm with modern fashion sense.
She also benefited from the popularity of popular TV series such as "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", "The Return of the Condor Heroes", "The Chinese Paladin", etc., leaving many impressive classic roles in people's minds. As a new generation of young people grows up, her influence has naturally increased.
This is like many Hong Kong stars, such as Xiao Zhao in "The Demon Cult Leader" and Zhao Min in the sequel. Without the star halo, they can only be considered good-looking at best, making it difficult for many people to understand why they are praised to the sky.
Liu Yifei, who is only 19 years old this year, is different.
In fact, she is not as pretty as she seems in newspapers, magazines, the Internet, TV dramas or movies. She suffers from the fact that she is not photogenic.
If they met in real life, even though Fan Wumian had seen her several times in person, he would still look her up and down with interest, secretly sighing that she was a typical example of God chasing her and feeding her.
Being beautiful is only secondary. Even if it is "one in a million", with the huge population base of the mainland, there are still many beautiful women with stunning looks. She is not only beautiful, but also very lucky.
Compared to Fan Wumian who spent several months trying to figure out how to make a name for himself, Liu Yifei's debut process was much smoother.
At this moment.
There are white clouds floating in the blue sky, the sun is shining, and seagulls are flying.
Arriving at the uniquely shaped "Flying Penguin" yacht, Liu Yifei looked up and saw Fan Wumian lying next to the fence. She smiled and waved to greet him, and asked:
"Hey~ New boss, how should I get on the boat? Take the stairs at the back?"
"Right there, on the first deck, you'll see me as soon as you come up. Miss Liu is really charming, and there are a few little tails following her. I'd better hide quickly. It will be troublesome if there are rumors about me."
Standing high, you can see far. A few guys who happened to meet Liu Yifei at the pier really followed her eagerly, about twelve or thirteen meters away.
The prejudice in people's hearts is a mountain.
For example, a Southeast Asian guy with slightly dark skin could easily make Fan Wumian think of him as a "kidnapper" or "thief".
If it were India, the prejudice would be even deeper. No matter whether it was sheep, lizards or car exhaust pipes, they all could not escape its clutches. It made people feel numb and wonder what kind of magical country this was.
As a senior who has already graduated, Liu Yifei is younger than Fan Wumian. After observing the scenery on both sides of the strait and the yacht, she praised:
"It's a beautiful boat, but the advertising pattern on the sail is a bit strange. When it comes to making money, you're the one I admire the most. I saw several company logos on the boat as I walked along, including Valentino, Penguin, and Tudou."
Fan Wumian was not in a hurry to talk about business, his expression was leisurely, and he said with a smile:
"Being a celebrity, besides not letting your image fall apart, the most important thing is to find a way to monetize your traffic and get some real benefits in return."
"As for pursuing the quality of the work, my realm and accomplishment are not that high. I cannot compare to some artists who are really passionate about performing and singing. They are truly passionate about it."
“In fact, sometimes I admire you.”
Liu Yifei curiously asked, "What do you admire about me?" "I admire that you are so famous, but you live a tight life. The Twins' Ah Sa and Ah Jiao have about 90% of their income taken away by the company. They probably earn more than you in a year."
"."
Liu Yifei's mentality collapsed instantly, but what Fan Wumian said was obviously the truth, she had no way to refute it, she just sighed and said:
"My mom, godfather and I discovered a long time ago that we didn't know how to negotiate prices with advertisers, and we didn't have the channels and resources to accept commercial performances or high-paying movie pay. We still had to find a big company to sign a contract."
"When I was acting in The Return of the Condor Heroes, I was only paid about 8000 yuan per episode, and even less after tax. I almost had an accident while filming, and the root of the disease I suffered has not healed to this day. My cervical spine often feels uncomfortable."
"I would also like to ask for your help, so that I can save enough money for my comfortable retirement soon. Sometimes I wonder why other stars can earn so much."
When Fan Wumian heard the words "junior brother", the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
Despite her fame, Liu Yifei is only 19 years old and has not yet fully understood the book "Emotional Intelligence".
If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't call him "junior". Nowadays, people generally call him "Mr. Fan" or "Mr. Fan". It has nothing to do with age. It's purely a way of bowing to the big boss of the capital to show respect.
He continued to say to Liu Yifei:
"I've seen all three steps of your rise to fame. Although you became famous very smoothly, compared to other artists, you also lacked the process of accumulating resources."
"Don't worry, I'll have someone help you find a suitable endorsement opportunity, such as the upcoming public beta of "Emperor of the Desolate Sky". Help me cosplay a game character then."
"Letting your studio be affiliated with the Holy Flame Meow Meow Agency will definitely not take away your profits for nothing. It will be mutually beneficial for everyone, and only in this way can we go on in the long run."
Liu Yifei nodded obediently and replied:
"I'm not worried about these. I heard that everyone wants to sign a contract with you. I cherish this opportunity very much."
Didn't get a chance to talk about that at the party last night.
I was idle today and had nothing to do, so I decided to chat with this girl.
Ever since Liu Yifei chose to terminate her contract with Sony Music and quickly found her next employer, signing with Holy Flame Meow Meow Agency, her boss Fan Wumian has never communicated with her.
Looking at the city skyline across the Victoria Harbour, Fan Wumian asked again:
"Why did you suddenly come to me today? Is it because of the teasing that made you a trending topic?"
Liu Yifei nodded immediately:
"Well, my agent asked me to ask you if you can contact Penguin Weibo to remove the trending search. I worked so hard on this song for so long, but it was treated as a joke. It was a huge blow to me. I don't think my mentality is that good, and it's hard for me to accept such a thing."
Fan Wumian said happily:
"Before I became an adult, netizens and the media were very tolerant of me, but now they are always looking for trouble and attacking me every now and then to gain attention."
"It's not that the situation has changed, it's just that your novice protection period has ended. The real world is not as good as imagined. Because I'm too rich, many people hate me for no reason."
"If you don't like it, then try to keep a low profile. Your previous works have directly put you on the altar. There is no need to look for opportunities to increase your exposure like other artists. You just need to keep it up."
Liu Yifei asked: "What about the withdrawal of trending searches?"
"Don't add fuel to the fire. The matter wasn't that serious to begin with. If I withdraw, it will seem like I'm guilty. It will only prove that your singing skills are not good, and it will have a negative impact on the credibility of Penguin Weibo."
After Fan Wumian finished speaking, he added:
"I've just thought about the most appropriate PR approach. Let's just put the blame on Sony Music. I have a few new songs in reserve that I haven't sung yet. I'll pick one from them and sing it with you. Then we'll post it on Tudou as soon as possible. As long as you can prove that the album's failure is the company's fault and has nothing to do with you, a lot of negative topics will fall apart on their own."
Liu Yifei instantly became nervous, with a slightly funny expression on her face, and stammered:
"This... is not appropriate, right? I might hold you back." (End of this chapter)
