Chapter 270 Reverse Operation
In the end, Su Long finally signed with a small management company before graduation.
However, this management company was small. Although it did not have many resources and only had some small web drama resources, the management inside was abnormally chaotic. From the CEO to the various department managers, they were all relatives.
However, it was fine even if they were relatives. As long as everyone was united, it could be considered a success. However, they were still fighting among themselves.
Half a month ago, the company’s CEO lost a battle with his younger brother and was chased out of the company, leaving the company’s administration. Meanwhile, his younger brother took the position of the CEO and carried out a huge reform of the company as soon as he came up. He either focused on the slightly famous actors or the good-looking female artists and invested all his resources on them.
On the other hand, a male artist like Su Long, who had no popularity, had been completely abandoned. He did not even have the chance to have a sip of soup. Not to mention web drama resources, even the most basic business resources were snatched away from him.
Helpless, he could only plan with his manager, Li Bing. It was also at this time, under Li Bing’s suggestion, that they set their sights on Yu Han.
Li Bing had seen the script of this web drama. He felt that as long as it continued filming according to the current momentum, the film would definitely be very good. If it could be released successfully, it should be able to become popular after some marketing.
However, this was obviously not enough. If he wanted the role to be more outstanding, he still needed to hype it up. The most efficient way to hype it up was to hype up the on-screen couple.
For this reason, Li Bing even specially looked for director Bai Chao and vaguely told him about the publicity in advance. He mentioned something about hyping up the male and female leads as an on-screen couple, but he did not expect Bai Chao to reject it.
Li Bing thought that Bai Chao was a new director in the industry, so he did not know the usual publicity methods in the industry. However, what he did not know was that the reason why Bai Chao rejected him was firstly because of his past experience. He did not like to do this. Secondly, the biggest sponsor of this drama was Ji Jun, the Best Actor.
As a bystander, Bai Chao could tell at a glance that Best Actor Ji had feelings for Yu Han. Hence, if he paired Yu Han up with another man to hype up the couple on the screen, what if he angered Ji Jun?
Ji Jun had said that he would invest 20 million yuan. This money was given in installments. Now, there was still the remaining 5 million yuan that he had yet to obtain. This sum of money had been agreed from the beginning to be used for the publicity and marketing expenses after the television drama was released.
That was why Bai Chao was not so stupid as to offend the biggest financier just to hype up the on-screen couple.
Li Bing did not know the exact situation. Seeing that Bai Chao did not agree to this matter, he could only guess that Yu Han did not agree either. Therefore, he could only scold Bai Chao behind his back a few times, saying that he was stubborn, and then decided to secretly cause trouble.
Li Bing reviewed the entire matter and said, “But you’re right. Yu Han’s background is probably not simple, so we can’t be too anxious. Anyway, the filming hasn’t finished yet. There’s still a long time before it’s released. We can boil the frog slowly and take our time.”
As for now, he could only think of another way to find more resources for Su Long or obtain more exposure. Otherwise, they would really have to stay at home for a long time.
Yu Han was also discussing this matter with He Meng.
He Meng’s opinion was, “It’s very common for idol dramas to hype up on-screen couples. There’s no need for us to completely avoid such a thing.”
However, Yu Han still felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of tying her name to an unfamiliar man for hype.
Suddenly, she had an idea. “There’s no rule that we have to hype up the male and female leads in this drama, right? Aren’t there many fans who like other on-screen relationships now? The gender requirements aren’t that harsh. For example, the male lead has a brotherly relationship with the second male lead, and the female lead has a best friend relationship with the second female lead. Otherwise, I could also hype it up with Yuan Fei.”
He Meng thought for a moment and her eyes lit up. “That can indeed be done.”
Moreover, Yuan Fei was now an employee of Starlight Entertainment. As the saying went, one does not allow benefits created by one’s own work to accrue to others. Since they wanted to hype it up, why not choose the method that was most beneficial to them?
If she teamed up with Yuan Fei, not only would it not affect Yu Han’s image and reputation, but she would also be able to cooperate better with the company. Moreover, Yuan Fei would not stab Yu Han in the back.
At this thought, He Meng immediately called Yuan Fei’s manager. Yuan Fei’s manager was called Liu Lu.
