Chinese entertainment: Top stars started being pursued by young actresses

Chapter 154, Section 153: Wang Churan and Xiao Tian have a conflict (6K)

Lin Shaobai's March issue of the magazine set a new record in the Chinese entertainment industry, with sales of 66 copies and revenue reaching 13200000.

Below him is a four-character article from the November 2018 issue of "People" magazine, priced at 45 yuan per copy, with sales reaching 73093 and revenue of 3289185 yuan.

The popularity of the four-character idol is also well-known, after all, they are idol groups with very loyal fans.

Fans watch their idols grow up from childhood, and that kind of emotion doesn't easily fade away.

His good teammate and close friend, Wang Yuan, is a little taller than him.

The November 2017 issue of Harper's Bazaar, priced at 30 yuan per copy, sold 160,000 copies, with a final sales revenue of 4800000 yuan.

Although the three members are all in the same group, as they grow up, fewer and fewer fans are devoted to the group, and the three fan groups gradually become independent and become individual fans.

In the end, they even looked down on each other and would curse each other whenever they met.

Some fans are also lamenting that they were so close back then, fighting against XO together, but now things have turned out like this.

Another major player on the sales chart is Xiao Zhan.

The January 2019 issue of Figaro, priced at 20/40 yuan per copy, sold 166945 copies, generating 5479680 yuan in revenue.

These were once top sellers in magazines, but recently Lin Shaobai has left them far behind.

In fact, fans care a lot about the sales volume and revenue of these magazines.

The only ones who don't care are the fan groups with particularly poor performance.

It's normal for fans to care; these are all real money spent on these rankings. Who wouldn't want their idol to rank higher on these lists? It would be a great source of pride to talk about it.

True fans will do their best to support their idols so they can achieve greater success, and their spending on magazines and commercial deals directly demonstrates their purchasing power.

The market appeal and fan purchasing power demonstrated by Lin Shaobai's latest magazine sales have surpassed that of all the new celebrities in mainland China over the past five years.

This achievement undoubtedly solidified his position in the entertainment industry.

She has become one of the most influential celebrities in the industry.

There will undoubtedly be an increase in business cooperation going forward, and the quality of business will also improve.

Lin Shaobai's magazine quickly became a trending topic after its sales reached tens of millions.

#Lin Shaobai Magazine#
Kun Kun, who has always paid attention to the popularity of celebrities, was filled with admiration when he saw that Lin Shaobai's magazine sold so many copies.

"Professor Lin is truly worthy of his title. I wish I could be as amazing as him someday."

Even though Kun Kun became somewhat arrogant after becoming famous, he still deeply admired Lin Shaobai.

Lin Shaobai was, after all, a mentor on Idol Producer, and he taught those trainees to sing seriously.

Cai Kunkun believes that Lin Shaobai has works to his name, whether as a singer or an actor.

He is a very well-rounded person, and such a person is someone worth learning from.

Meanwhile, Master Hua checks Weibo for everything.

After clicking on Lin Shaobai's entry, I discovered that his magazine sales had broken the record for domestic entertainment magazines!
"What?! This guy's magazine has sold over 60 copies!"

His assistant quietly walked over and said, "Boss, didn't you say you didn't care about these things?"

"I saw it trending and clicked on it. Is he... is he cheating? Sales have reached over 60 copies?! This is... this is breaking records!"

Master Hua still found it hard to believe.

He and Lin Shaobai both started out as singers and each had their own territory in the music industry.

How did things get to this point?!

In the blink of an eye, their status in the entertainment industry has diverged so much?!

Who in the Chinese entertainment industry can withstand the purchasing power of his fans now?

"Does the boss think you've been too busy with work lately, or does he not understand you?"

"What?"

"Lin Shaobai's fans, Bai He, are notoriously crazy in the industry. If anyone dares to mess with Lin Shaobai, it's common for their fans to flood public squares. No one can beat their fans. Moreover, there are a lot of wealthy women in this group, so they certainly don't lack money when it comes to buying things like this."

"But sales of tens of millions is just too exaggerated."

"Well, it's understandable that these things would happen to Lin Shaobai."

Master Hua felt something was very wrong.

He walked step by step toward his assistant.

"I noticed before that you had so many good things to say about Lin Shaobai. No matter what I said, you were praising Lin Shaobai."

"Forehead……"

"You're my assistant, do you even know that?"

"Boss, you must be overthinking it."

the other side

vv also saw this message by chance at home.

Lin Shaobai's previous hit drama "Go Go Squid!" made him very unhappy.

It's one thing that "Ashes of Love" became a huge hit, but how did "Go Go Squid!" also become so popular?

A top-tier celebrity winning two awards is a truly terrifying thing.

Now, Lin Shaobai's position as the most popular celebrity should be unassailable.

VV isn't the magnanimous type; she is indeed jealous of Lin Shaobai's current success.

He sometimes thinks about how popular "Love O2O" was back then!
What an era, what a figure!

Are all the 99ers this amazing now?

The recent popularity of the drama, coupled with this magazine incident, has earned Lin Shaobai another high-end luxury endorsement.

Loewe's global brand ambassador.

Since his debut in 17, Lin Shaobai has had three luxury brand endorsements.

Audi, a world-renowned luxury car brand, is a brand master in the Audi Elite Club.

Loewe, a century-old luxury brand, is now its global brand ambassador.

Dior Blue Blood Brand Ambassador.

Many celebrity dramas become wildly popular, but unfortunately, they lack commercial value and don't attract many business opportunities.

Without business, the money you can earn is much less.

Lin Shaobai's endorsement fee is 1800 million yuan, and he has more than a dozen endorsements, making him the top commercial valuer at present.

The company would never allow a cash cow of his caliber to lie idle.

"Go Go Squid!" is a huge hit, and it needs to keep climbing higher.

Lin Shaobai has been busy filming "Qingqing's Daily Life" with Xiaotian and running around doing business lately.

I'm so busy every day that I'm completely overwhelmed.

At the same time, we also need to plan and prepare to record a new variety show.

During this period, another major event occurred in the Chinese entertainment industry.

Zhao Xiaodao gave birth to a son.

She quickly became the subject of everyone's discussion.

The matter between me and Uncle Feng has been going on since last year, with posts about our marriage, obtaining our marriage certificate, and having a child.

Perhaps in the end, only the fans will be heartbroken.

Lin Shaobai had no idea about this Weibo account.

He filmed a long night scene that night, and it was already past midnight when he got back to the hotel. He went straight to bed and slept.

He had just wanted to get some rest, but someone kept knocking on his door.

"Who?"

Lin Shaobai dragged his tired body to open the door, only to find it was Tian Xiwei.

Filming for "Qingqing's Daily Life" continued from January to March, during which Tian Xiwei's feelings for Lin Shaobai deepened day by day.

She really loves it.

I struggle with my own bottom line almost every night.

Yes, I really like Lin Shaobai.

But knowing that he had a girlfriend, she could only keep her feelings to herself and couldn't express them.

Sometimes when I'm drunk, I even think about whether I should cross the line!
But it was just a fleeting thought.

If you really want to be together, it seems like the only option is to wait for him to break up with his girlfriend; there's no other way.

"Tian Xiwei? What are you doing here so late at night instead of sleeping?"

"You forgot to take back the tablet you borrowed from me, I've come to bring it to you!"

Tian Xiwei looked at Lin Shaobai and said.

"Oh, I would have forgotten if you hadn't mentioned it."

Lin Shaobai grabbed the tablet and left.

As Tian Xiwei watched him about to close the door, she suddenly stuck her foot into the door frame as if possessed!

"what!"

Lin Shaobai didn't even notice her feet, and in the process of closing the door, he was squeezed in.

With a scream from Xiaotian, Lin Shaobai quickly turned around.

“You…” Lin Shaobai squatted down and looked at her feet.

Tian Xi gasped slightly: "It's okay, I..."

She didn't even know why she was doing this; she was acting like a simp.

My brain, out of control, wanted to block the door and wanted to see Lin Shaobai a few more times.

It's too late to react afterward.

"Sorry, I didn't see you when I closed the door."

"It has nothing to do with you, it's my problem."

Tian Xi waved her hand casually, then hopped away on one leg into the distance.

"Xiaotian, are you sure you don't need me to help you?"

"Need not!"

Tian Xiwei hopped on one leg to the corner and bumped into Liu Meihan.

"Oh dear! What happened to your leg? Don't hurt it, you're the leading lady!"

Liu Meihan was joking.

"It's nothing. It's not a problem with my leg, my foot just got caught in the door. I'll put some ointment on it when I get back! It's a minor issue!"

"How could your foot get squeezed by a door when it was perfectly fine?"

"It's alright. Don't worry about it."

Tian Xi skipped back to her room.

Lying in bed, I felt so pathetic thinking about what had just happened!
What's going on?

They're even capable of doing things like jamming doors with their feet.

depressed……

"Hey."

Liu Meihan followed behind her the whole time, afraid that Tian Xiwei might suddenly fall and the drama would have to be postponed.

Then they discovered that the careless Xiaotian hadn't even closed the door to his room.

"You said you were fine, but do you look like you're fine? You didn't even close the door."

Didn't I close the door?

Tian Xi glanced behind the door and then slapped her head, saying, "Oh dear, I have such a big brain."

Liu Meihan: "You should be glad it was me. What would you have done if it were someone else?"

"I'm just glad it was you. If it were anyone else, I would have taken them down in a few punches and kicks!"

As Tian Xiwei spoke, a smug look appeared on her face, and she said it was even harder to control than an AK.

She has been working out and has indeed been practicing boxing.

Generally speaking, they have the means to protect themselves.

Liu Meihan: "Come on, you're something else. Even our heroine Tian, ​​who's so amazing, still got her foot squeezed by a door." "Hey, can't you speak properly? Can't you cough a couple of times?"

Liu Meihan found teasing Xiaotian particularly interesting.

With her hands behind her back, she stood by the bed again: "Thank goodness, it wasn't my head that got squeezed by the door. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to act or become a big star."

Tian Xi's brows were furrowed, making her look just like a stubborn little lion.

"Are you trying to provoke me on purpose?"

"No. I was just concerned about your injury, otherwise our crew would be without a female lead. Also, I'm still quite curious about your relationship with Lin Shaobai."

"Why is this never going to end? I've already said that he and I are just ordinary friends."

"Okay. Fine."

Liu Meihan shrugged: "I didn't get anything out of you again today. I'll go get you some medicine and massage your feet."

"thank you."

"Don't mention it, you're a new friend I made here. How could I ignore you if you said you were injured?"

Following Xiaotian's instructions, Liu Meihan picked up some ointment for treating bruises and sprains, and casually asked, "By the way, Xiaotian, what are your plans after this movie is finished?"

"How would I know? I don't have the right to choose my own scripts yet."

"Oh……"

Liu Meihan sighed softly and gently rubbed the ointment onto Tian Xiwei's squeezed foot.

"Tsk. To be honest, if it weren't for Lin Shaobai's help, I definitely wouldn't have gotten a role in this drama. Lin Shaobai strongly recommended me. Otherwise, how could an unknown actor like me have the opportunity to act in such a good drama?"

"Xiao Tian, ​​although you have Lin Shaobai's help, you are also very capable. You are the chosen one, Li Wei. Don't blame yourself like this anymore. When has our Xiao Tian ever been such a complainer?"

"Oh?"

Tian Xi blinked her round eyes: "Your way of speaking is so unpredictable, sometimes making people feel comfortable and sometimes making them feel uncomfortable."

"Sigh. People have many facets, don't you think?"

"Humans have many facets... Yes, you're right. It's not all black and white."

……

……

After a few days off, Lin Shaobai went to shoot for the April issue of VOGUE magazine.

Tian Xiwei took advantage of her day off to go to a karaoke bar with her former friends from the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

Who would have thought that her friend would also bring friends, so what was originally a gathering of two or three people turned into a gathering of six or seven people.

Tian Xiwei met Wang Churan for the first time here.

She had heard of Wang Churan's name before when she was at the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

Both of them are famously beautiful, so it's quite normal to hear their names mentioned by others once or twice.

At the time, Tian Xiwei didn't care what Wang Churan actually looked like.
Is it really as beautiful as they describe?

Looking at it now, it really does look very good.

Both her face and figure are top-notch.

Wang Churan, with her beautiful black hair flowing freely, looked no different from the pure and innocent school beauty when she stood there.

Who would have thought that he was a lovesick woman in private?
It's estimated that only Lin Shaobai knows what she's like in private.

Wang Churan was only willing to show that infatuated look to the person she trusted and loved most.

"Hello, it's nice to meet you. My name is Wang Churan."

Wang Churan greeted Tian Xiwei in a natural and generous manner.

Neither of them knew about the other's relationship with Lin Shaobai.

I simply assumed they were alumni of the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

After greeting the others, Wang Churan came to Tian Xiwei's side.

Tian Xiwei has a strong aura; just standing there, she gives off an impression that she's not someone to be trifled with.

Even though her face is so sweet...

Wang Churan seemed to disregard the opinions of others and took the initiative to approach Tian Xiwei, saying, "Actually, I had heard of your name before when we were at the Shanghai Theatre Academy."

Tian Xiwei felt a tickle in her ear and turned to look at her: "Really? You've heard of my name?"

Wang Churan: "Of course! Everyone knows you, Wang Cuihua!"

Tian Xiwei: "..."

"Whenever I ask you for your name, you always say Wang Cuihua. Right? Sigh, really, you don't have to do it in such a ridiculous way if you don't want to give me your name." Wang Churan said, putting her arm around Tian Xiwei's shoulder.

Tian Xiwei: "Hello."

"Why are you reacting so strongly? We're alumni, we're very close, it's perfectly normal for me to put my arm around your shoulder. This is called alumni friendship."

These two are now in a corner of the KTV; everyone else is tidying up and going to order songs and sing.

The room was noisy.

They ate and drank, and no one noticed what the two were saying in the corner.

The point of this trip was for everyone to relax and sing karaoke; there's no need to waste time gossiping about other people.

"Let go, I don't like being hugged by others," Tian Xiwei said, crossing her arms over her chest, showing a strong sense of boundaries.

When Wang Churan saw how fierce she was, she immediately pulled her hand back and raised it in the air as if she were surrendering.

"Okay, okay, okay, I won't hug you anymore, alright? Why are you looking like you're about to bite me?"

"Wang Churan, are you naturally outgoing?"

"I'm a bit of a social butterfly. I felt a special connection with you the moment I saw you, I don't know why?" Wang Churan gradually approached Tian Xiwei.

Tian Xiwei raised her right eyebrow higher and higher, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She thought to herself, "This woman surnamed Wang is really too strange."
I heard she was a goddess in many people's hearts. Could it be that this is the kind of personality she has in private?
Is it all an act all the time?

"Ah, now I finally understand why I have a natural affinity for you." Wang Churan smiled.

Tian Xiwei: "Why..."

"Because you have Lin Shaobai's scent on you."

"puff……"

Tian Xiwei almost coughed up a mouthful of blood.

How can this statement be so easily misunderstood?

She has been very careful lately.

It's unbelievable that someone would say something like that.

"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!"

Tian Xiwei panicked.

A female classmate who was closest to them heard this and became curious: "I said, you two have been chatting over there since you came in, don't you sing? It's fine if you don't sing, but you don't even eat anything."

Wang Churan turned around and replied with a smile, "Ah, I just wanted to meet our Xiaotian! I like to make friends and build good relationships, and today I've taken a liking to Xiaotian~"

"Oh fine."

Tian Xiwei: "Hey, can you please stop using such a disgusting tone? You're all about making friends, but I'm not."

Wang Churan tilted her head and looked at her: "Oh, wouldn't it be good for you to have another beautiful girlfriend? Anyway, I feel like you have Lin Shaobai's scent on you."

"I told you not to mention this, and are you a dog? How can you smell this? Besides, isn't it normal for me to have Lin Shaobai's scent on me?"

Tian Xiwei crossed her arms over her chest and looked into the distance.

Wang Churan tapped her cheek with her index finger, thought for a moment, and then exclaimed in realization, "Oh my god, could it be that kind of taste?"

Tian Xi glared at her: "Are you sick? I'm filming with him recently. He's the male lead and I'm the female lead. It's normal for us to smell."

"Okay, okay, I know, just kidding, don't be angry, our classmate Wang Cuihua."

"you!"

"Didn't you tell others your name is Wang Cuihua? Why do you get angry when I call you Wang Cuihua?"

Tian Xiwei felt that she and Wang Churan couldn't see eye to eye at all!
How could there be such an alumnus?

Never mind, calm down.

The world is full of wonders, and there will always be some strange and eccentric people.

"I can't be bothered with you, I'm going to sing karaoke."

Wang Churan pulled Xiao Tian back: "How was it filming with Lin Shaobai?"

Now we're finally getting to the important stuff.

Wang Churan's dream is to act in a movie with Lin Shaobai.

But she's nothing yet, so she doesn't have much of a chance to partner with Lin Shaobai.

Tian Xiwei turned to look at her: "It's fine as it is."

"That's all?!"

This was the loudest Wang Churan had ever spoken since the beginning, and her voice carried a hint of disbelief.

"Is your answer really that bland?!"

"What else do you want? Do you want me to bring a megaphone and shout in front of you?"

"Filming with Lin Shaobai is such a rare opportunity! And you're just going to say it like this?!"

The more excited Wang Churan got, the more she unconsciously switched into fangirl mode, revealing her true nature.

Tian Xiwei's fiery temper couldn't tolerate it.

"If you're sick, go take your medicine. If you don't know what medicine to take, go to the vet and ask. You've been asking me about Lin Shaobai from the beginning until now. Are you a fan of his?"

"Yes."

"what?"

Tian Xiwei asked casually, but she didn't expect to actually be tricked into revealing the truth.

Wang Churan made no attempt to hide her feelings for Lin Shaobai.

"I just love Lin Shaobai. I really love Lin Shaobai. He's my Prince Charming, my idol, and the person I think about every night."

"Cough cough." Tian Xiwei had never seen such a strange person before, and she found it hard to accept for a moment.

"If I like someone, I'll say it openly and honestly, unlike some people who try to hide it."

"Who are you talking about?!"

"I didn't tell anyone, why are you so nervous?"

"I've been putting up with you for so long, why are you making me so annoyed?"

Just as Tian Xiwei was about to grab Wang Churan's collar, she was hugged by the female classmate behind her.

"Xiaotian! What are you doing?! Everyone's waiting for you to sing!"

Tian Xi's anger vanished in an instant.

She turned around gracefully, picked up the microphone on the sofa, and said, "Give me 'I'll Love You Till I Die'!"

Female classmate: "Okay!"

Wang Churan was leaning against the corner of the wall, observing the whole situation from the perspective of an outsider.

She thought Tian Xiwei was a really interesting person.

He seems to have a bad temper, but it's all a facade.

Because she is kind-hearted at heart, no matter how irritable she is, she won't go too far.

"This is really interesting. How come I never noticed such an interesting alumnus before?"

"I wish I could become friends with her. I could also learn more about Teacher Lin."

"Sigh, when will I be able to act in a movie with Lin Shaobai? I'll play the female lead and he'll play the male lead. Just thinking about it is wonderful."

As Wang Churan spoke, she walked over to Tian Xiwei and decided to sing a duet with her.

"Come on, let's sing a duet."

"Get out of the way, what kind of chorus is this song for?!"

The figures regarding magazine sales and revenue in yesterday's chapter were incorrect, but they have been corrected.
