This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

  Chapter 34 33. Wang Cheng is coming back? In the past two years, I don't want him to be idle one day...

  After the show was broadcast, Wu Han took out his phone and watched it!

  He is looking at his popularity on the Internet and the speed at which his Weibo fans are increasing.

  This can intuitively reflect his attractiveness on the show.

  However, this time, Wu Han discovered that the program is very popular on all major social platforms, and many people are discussing the Oriental Star program.

   This is an effect that was not there when the last episode of the show was broadcast. In the last episode, he and Li Feifan were more popular than the show itself with the support of the company, but this time the show itself is far more popular than them.

and…

   It was not him and Li Feifan who discussed the most.

  It was Wang Cheng.

   This did not exceed his expectations.

   After all, Penguin Entertainment hasn't started to use his promotional resources. Now that the show has just ended, everyone is amazed by Wang Cheng's performance, and it's only natural to be attracted by Wang Cheng!

But…

  Wu Han flipped through several short video platforms, and his face became even more ugly.

because!

On the most popular short video platforms such as Douyue, Huoshan, and Penguin Weishi, there are a large number of videos imitating Wang Cheng's dancing. Among them, there are many popular Internet celebrities who specialize in dancing. Dancing movements are used to gain popularity, and it is really better to dance.

"I'll give everyone Amway alone, Wang Cheng! I don't know if you've watched it, but the program on Dragon TV, called Oriental Star, is very well-produced, and the choreography in it is wonderful. It is said that there are two gold medal dancers joining. Especially The Wang Cheng team that performed at the end was simply amazing, tomorrow I will ask the two brothers to dance together with the Wang Cheng team..."

  …

"Have you seen this mechanical dance move? It was created by a trainee named Wang Cheng. Is it amazing? I have been practicing for more than half an hour, and I can imitate a little bit. Watch my head not move, and my body move. Ouch, my head…”

  …

   "I strongly recommend a variety show, Oriental Star. There are three wonderful performances in it. Wu Han, Li Feifan, Wang Cheng, especially Wang Cheng who appeared at the end is the most exciting. Everyone, go to Penguin Video to watch the replay of the video. It is absolutely wonderful!"

  …

  Wu Han has seen many similar videos, most of which are recommending and imitating Wang Cheng, and a small number of them are recommended together with him and Li Feifan.

snort!

  Wu Han snorted coldly, then clicked on his Weibo and looked at it, and saw that his Weibo had increased by about 100,000 fans after the show was broadcast, but there was not much joy in his eyes.

  Because, he clicked on Wang Cheng's Weibo page and found that Wang Cheng's fans had increased by nearly 300,000...

Snapped!

  Drop your phone.

  Wu Han got up and walked to the practice room.

  He still needs to practice more.

  While passing by Li Feifan's practice room, Wu Han looked a little curiously, and saw that Li Feifan was also practicing with several players, and Danny, the gold medal dancer, was guiding beside him!

  Wu Han suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

  Although Wang Cheng is gone, Li Feifan is working so hard, which poses a certain threat to him.

   buzz buzz...

  Wu Han's phone rang.

   It was the manager Mo Jinhua who called.

  Wu Han curiously picked it up and connected it: "Sister Mo!"

  Mo Jinhua said in a complicated tone: "Wu Han, I have some bad news for you. Wang Cheng may be coming back."

ah?

   Wu Han was stunned.

Mo Jinhua continued: "The ratings of this program have exploded. Wang Cheng has raised the ratings of the program group by several notches. It is impossible for the program group to let Wang Cheng leave. They have already contacted Dongxing Entertainment to let When Wang Cheng comes back to continue performing, you have to be mentally prepared."

Snapped!

  The mobile phone in Wu Han's hand fell to the ground.

  Mo Jinhua's calling voice came from the phone: "Wu Han, Wu Han, are you okay?"

  Wu Han picked up the phone, gritted his teeth and said, "Sister Mo, I'm fine...Don't worry, I'm fine!"

  However, his face is slightly distorted!

   "It's fine, let's prepare for the next performance."

   After Mo Jinhua finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

  Wu Han took a deep breath to adjust his state, held his mobile phone tightly, and walked towards the practice room at a faster pace.

  Tonight, he won't sleep.

  …

   In the practice room, Li Feifan, who was discussing with Danny about the dance performance of the next show, also received a call from his manager Zhou Jianjun.

  Zhou Jianjun also cut straight to the point and said, "Extraordinary, listen carefully, Wang Cheng may be coming back."

"What?"

   Li Feifan immediately exclaimed loudly.

   Attracted the eyes of the surrounding teammates and Danny, they all looked at Li Feifan in surprise, wondering what happened to make Li Feifan lose his composure.

   Zhou Jianjun smiled bitterly: "Yes, except for you players, maybe everyone else hopes that he can come back. Including me! And the program team, as well as people from Penguin Entertainment, all hope that he can come back..."

  Li Feifan's eyes widened, feeling like he was stabbed in the back by his manager and company: "Why?"

Zhou Jianjun: "Because, the ratings of this episode exploded, reaching a peak of 2.5. Do you understand what that means? If this ratings data can be stabilized, the Oriental Star stage will become a new generation of phenomenal Variety show, all of you trainees who participate in the show will get great exposure, which is good for each of you."

   "Our company is one of the investors of the show, and Penguin Entertainment is also one of the investors. Of course, we all hope that the show will be better and better!"

  Li Feifan gradually understood, but still asked in disbelief: "Is the ratings really over 2.5?"

  As a person in the entertainment industry, he naturally knows what the ratings of 2.5 mean in recent years. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the highest ratings of variety shows in the past three years.

Zhou Jianjun: "I don't know the exact number. I just inquired about this data from the company. It was revealed from Director He. It should not be wrong. Now, it depends on when Dongxing Entertainment can bring Wang Cheng over! You should prepare well. Don’t think about winning the championship and breaking through the show. You may still have a chance against Wu Han, but with Wang Cheng around, you really have no chance at all.”

   "You can use the stage to express yourself well, the company will give you a lot of publicity resources."

  The light in Li Feifan's eyes gradually dimmed.

  As a trainee, who would not want to break out and win the championship to participate in the annual Tomorrow Idol Stage to compete for the title of the strongest trainee idol this year?

But.

  With Wang Cheng around, he really has no hope!

  Facing Wu Han, he can cheer himself up, and there is still a glimmer of hope.

   But facing Wang Cheng, he felt a little powerless when he thought of Wang Cheng's performance in today's broadcast.

   "Extraordinary, don't be discouraged. In this industry, success is not achieved by walking fast, but by walking steadily and long enough, it is considered true success."

Zhou Jianjun comforted: "Although Wang Cheng surpasses you in terms of talent and talent in dancing, and also surpasses you in appearance, he is not as good as you in singing. He didn't have a single lyric in this performance, but everyone was amazed by his dancing, so no People pay attention. He is far worse than you in terms of being a human being. He offends people so easily, so he is destined not to go far, but you will definitely go further than him, and your achievements will be higher than his by then."

  Li Feifan's eyes gradually regained their light!

   That's right, how far can a trainee who plays big names, quarrels with his teammates, quarrels with his manager, and quarrels with the director of the company go? In the future, there will be enemies everywhere, and one bad person may be beaten by thousands of people.

   Moreover, Wang Cheng's singing is very average, which is also an obvious shortcoming, and the upper limit will not be too high in the future.

   "Okay, I will try my best."

  Li Feifan regained his fighting spirit again, his eyes were burning with flames.

  …

the next day.

  Wang Cheng gets up on time, runs, eats breakfast, and then walks back to the dormitory.

  Many young trainees who had kept him at arm's length two days ago now became enthusiastic about Wang Cheng.

  It all stemmed from the fact that they had watched Wang Cheng and Zhang Hanwen's wonderful performances, and they all greeted Wang Cheng when they saw Wang Cheng.

   "Wang Cheng, good morning."

   "Wang Cheng, it's so early."

   "Wang Cheng, do you want to practice dancing later?"

   "Wang Cheng..."

  …

   Facing the friendly gestures of the teenagers, Wang Cheng smiled casually and nodded in response. He didn't speak, but said a few words to Li Zhengguang and Xu Zhi, and then went back to the dormitory on his own.

  Going back to the dormitory and sitting down, I just picked up the book and read a few pages.

  The knock on the door rang again.

  Wang Cheng raised his eyebrows: "Come in."

   It was Liu Jinfeng who walked in, and Zhang Xiuhua, who he found from the TV station overnight.

   This was within Wang Cheng's expectations. The only foreign aid Liu Jinfeng could find was Zhang Xiuhua. After all, Zhang Xiuhua was the person in the company who had the most contact with Wang Cheng.

  Liu Jinfeng's face was obviously tired, obviously he didn't sleep well all night.

  One night, he received a call from the producer of the Oriental Star program group, then a call from the TV station leader, then a call from his own boss, and a call from acquaintances in several other companies...

   Almost every call has a meaning!

  I hope he can bring Wang Cheng back to the show as soon as possible, so as not to delay the next recording of the show.

  Liu Jinfeng has been in the industry for more than 20 years, and has been the artist director of Dongxing Entertainment for eight years. This is the first time he has encountered such a trainee, who can attract so many industry leaders to speak out...

  With Liu Jinfeng's energy, of course he knows that Wang Cheng can't ask him to do this.

  Wang Cheng's family background is very ordinary, and his parents are only ordinary workers in a small county, so it is impossible to do so.

  So, those bigwigs are not here for Wang Cheng, but for their own interests.

  Recalling Wang Cheng's attitude last night, Liu Jinfeng froze again, then winked at Zhang Xiuhua, found a chair and sat down, and let Zhang Xiuhua go first.

  Zhang Xiuhua took two steps forward and said with a smile: "Wang Cheng, I really envy your mentality. The outside world is going crazy for you, and you can still read a book leisurely here."

Wang Cheng glanced at Zhang Xiuhua, then looked at the document bag in Liu Jinfeng's hand, and said lightly: "Sister Hua, if you are here to ask me to sign a long-term contract, then it goes without saying. It is impossible for me to sign a long-term contract ..."

Zhang Xiuhua took a look at Liu Jinfeng, and she also felt that it was impossible for Wang Cheng to sign a long-term contract, but signing a long-term contract is Liu Jinfeng's top priority, so she could only bite the bullet and say, "Wang Cheng, signing a long-term contract is very important to you." The benefit is that the share is higher, before you were 19% and the long-term contract will give you 37%..."

Wang Cheng waved his hand: "Sister Hua, as I said, I don't want to talk about the contract, and you don't need to talk nonsense. If you come here just to talk about this, then we have nothing to talk about. Go get busy, I I still have to continue reading, so don't waste everyone's time."

Forehead…

  The atmosphere in the room is weird.

  Zhang Xiuhua and Liu Jinfeng looked at Wang Cheng sitting there in silence for a moment, who looked like a boss.

  Obviously just a nineteen-year-old trainee, but in terms of momentum, he completely suppressed the two veterans in the industry. For a while, they didn't know what to say, and they felt a little depressed.

  Liu Jinfeng said tentatively: "Wang Cheng, how about five years? I promise to fight for front-line resources for you every year."

  Wow...

  There is only a sound of flipping a book.

  Wang Cheng's eyes were only on the book, and he didn't look up, as if he didn't hear it.

Zhang Xiuhua reminded Wang Cheng: "Wang Cheng, if you want to continue to cooperate with the company, you should maintain a good relationship with the company, so that the company can arrange resources for you reasonably, and you don't want the company to deliberately make things difficult for you in the future." Bar?"

  Wang Cheng was still too lazy to talk nonsense, he just turned a page of the book again and made a crisp clattering sound!

   Liu Jinfeng felt that his temper could no longer be suppressed, his breath became heavy, and he stared at Wang Cheng's eyes, his pupils getting bigger and bigger.

   When was he treated like this?

  Even those big shots in the circle would be polite to him.

   After all, they are all living in the industry, and no one wants to make enemies. As the artist director of a central entertainment company, he is also a character, okay?

   Now he is being treated like this by a nineteen-year-old trainee under his banner?

   Liu Jinfeng's complexion became more and more red.

  Zhang Xiuhua continued: "The company supports your work and rest time!"

  Wang Cheng glanced at Zhang Xiuhua, and said lightly: "You have already promised this."

  Zhang Xiuhua was speechless.

Liu Jinfeng couldn't bear it anymore, a violent light flashed in his eyes, but he clenched his hands into fists and forced it down temporarily, and said in a deep voice: "Wang Cheng, if you change a five-year contract, I'll give you 37% of it. For five years, we will give you high-quality resources and respect your work and rest time, as long as you obediently perform on the show, I promise not to embarrass you, how about it?"

  Wang Cheng didn't speak, just shook his head slightly.

  Five years?

impossible!

   Two years left is long enough.

  It is not possible for more than one day.

  Hoo hoo...

Liu Jinfeng gritted his teeth and continued: "If you don't agree to change the contract, then the company will squeeze your value crazily in the remaining two years! As long as you give us money, we will take over some bad shows for you. , according to the contract, you must also go, you don’t think so, do you?”

  Wang Cheng still didn't speak, but just shrugged indifferently.

   rub...

Liu Jinfeng stood up in an instant, stared at Wang Cheng, and said condescendingly: "Okay, Wang Cheng, this is your choice. Don't regret it when the time comes. Your contract is in the hands of the company. I have a hundred ways to let you Ruined."

Seeing such a tense atmosphere, Zhang Xiuhua hurriedly persuaded Wang Cheng in a low voice: "Wang Cheng, it's even worse for you if you get stuck! The company may lose some money, but for you it may ruin your future life ..."

  She has also seen some popular trainees fight against the company before, and the result is that they are either hidden by the company, or they are picked up by the company randomly with some bad movies or bad variety shows, which quickly consumes their popularity and eventually disappears.

  The company holds the contract and wants to punish a trainee. It's really too simple. It's just to see if they are willing to lose some benefits.

  Wang Cheng is very concerned about these...

   That's true and don't care at all.

   Frozen?

   This is what he is least afraid of, reading books every day, running and exercising to keep healthy, isn't it just right? The company still manages food and housing...

   Receive notifications indiscriminately and consume popularity quickly?

   That's okay too!

   Anyway, after the contract expired, he went to live in seclusion, regardless of whether he was popular or not.

  Seeing that Wang Cheng is still reticent.

Liu Jinfeng lost his patience completely, and said loudly to Wang Cheng: "Okay, this is your choice! Zhang Xiuhua, take him to Oriental Star immediately. After Oriental Star is over, immediately contact other programs. In the past two years, I have not I hope he is free one day..."

   After finishing speaking, Liu Jinfeng turned around angrily and walked out, closing the door of the room with a bang, and shouting angrily, "Let's go now!"

  Zhang Xiuhua looked at Wang Cheng helplessly: "It shouldn't be so stiff!"

  Wang Cheng stood up from the chair as before calmly. He didn't care about the furious Liu Jinfeng, but shook his head and said, "It's only been two days of leisure!"

   After finishing speaking, he put a few books into his bag, and packed a few changes of clothes and toiletries.

   Zhang Xiuhua wanted to help, but was stopped by Wang Cheng, and then watched Wang Cheng pack up his things, feeling a little distressed in his heart.

  She knew that in the future under Dongxing Entertainment, Wang Cheng's life would definitely not be too easy.
