Chapter 120: A Very Explosive Counter-Support

"Look back~"

When she heard these words on the phone, Zhang Xiaorong immediately turned around, but she did not see Bai Youlou.

This joke made this gentle girl unable to help but complain, "You lied to me"

"I didn't lie to you."

This time, the voice did not come from the phone.

Zhang Xiaorong looked towards the corner of the corridor in the other direction with surprise. A familiar figure was leaning lazily against the wall, waving at her with a smile.
Bai Youlou took two steps at a time and wondered how Zhang Xiaorong suddenly appeared in front of him.

“I took first place.”

"Great!" Bai Youlou gave a thumbs up and praised, "What reward do you want?"

"You're treating him like a child." Zhang Xiaorong smiled brightly. Although she said this, her expression actually showed that she quite liked Bai Youlou being like this.

"Oh, yes. You seem to be two years older than me. Should I call you sister to cheer you up?"

"No! Why are you here? Aren't you here to prepare for the movie?"

Hearing this question, Bai Youlou spread his hands, "I still feel a little uneasy. Lao Zhou is not here. What if you are bullied here? You are unfamiliar with the place. By the way, is there any Lao Deng who is suppressing you? I brought a sack and will go to help you deal with the other party right away."

sack?

At this moment, Yu Zhan, who was passing by, twitched his mouth slightly.

Why is it that every time I meet Bai Youlou backstage on the show, I always hear some “violent remarks”?
Is this guy really in the entertainment industry?

Last time, backstage at "Tomorrow's Star Show", he heard Bai Youlou say something naughty to Zhen Dongjun like "Your wife is very moist".

After returning home, Yu Zhan was puzzled. Why couldn't he come up with such a sexy phrase? No wonder he is a talented singer-songwriter!

At this time, Bai Youlou's gaze followed Yu Zhan like a shadow.

It gave him a shock.

I subconsciously said, "I didn't bully her, I'm seventh."

"Ah? You're such a wimp?"

Yu Zhan:.
Are you polite?

After Bai Youlou blurted out that sentence, he realized that it was inappropriate. He was just rubbing salt into other people's wounds.

He also made up for it by saying, "Teacher Yu is still taking care of the younger generation. I will definitely not be polite to you next time."

Zhang Xiaorong nodded, "Teacher Yu is very capable."

You two are also good at comforting people.

Yu Zhan felt a little more comfortable. After all, he was Bai Youlou's "client".

It's just that Yu Zhan is still practicing the song "Never Left" that he bought from him.
It’s not that he didn’t want to use it in the first period, but he wasn’t sure before he had practiced it well.

I'll wait until he's done practicing.
Yu Zhan is quite good at observing people's words and expressions. After all, he is a man who has maxed out the "Internet Avoidance" skill. He can even avoid online violence, not to mention his good sense.

After chatting briefly with Bai Youlou and exchanging personal contact information, I said I would not disturb you two, the young couple.

The word "young couple" successfully made Zhang Xiaorong blush slightly.

But she didn't explain or deny it.

When Bai Youlou and Yu Zhan were chatting, he just stood quietly by their side without saying a word.

He is so well-behaved and sensible.

After Yu Zhan left, he spoke again:
"Everyone is very polite, and I'm not the type to be easily bullied."

This is true~
Zhang Xiaorong is just more gentle, not the weak-willed type who gets bullied.

Bai Youlou would always get beaten when he teased her sometimes, but with a gangster like him as a training ground beforehand, she would not suffer any loss outside.

So we should do more of this kind of "exercise" in the future.

The two chatted as they walked out, and they didn't run into other singers participating in the show.

It has been nearly ten hours since we started recording in the afternoon. It is now approaching midnight. Everyone either quickly returned to the hotel to rest or was removing their makeup in the dressing room.

Zhang Xiaorong's stage makeup today was not heavy, so she can remove it herself when she returns to the hotel.

So after just spending a few minutes changing clothes, we prepared to leave together.

But at this moment, she was actually still thinking about a question in her mind: Where will Bai Youlou stay at night?

His arrival was clearly unplanned.

It is impossible for the production team to arrange hotel accommodation for him, and they have not mentioned this matter so far.
Zhang Xiaorong’s room is quite big, but there is only one bed!
If you squeeze in, you can sleep.
Zhang Xiaorong's mind started to get confused for no apparent reason. She didn't know what she was thinking, but she couldn't help but keep thinking about it.
I couldn't help but steal a glance at Bai Youlou, but found that he was looking forward with a slightly frown.

"what happened?"

"Why are there so many people outside? What time is it?"

Zhang Xiaorong took a look and found that it was true. Even though it was almost midnight, there were still quite a few fans gathered outside.

It seems like he is waiting for his favorite singer to come out.

"I remember someone mentioned before that the nightlife in Star City is very popular. I heard that some busy areas would be crowded with people at two or three in the morning."

"Hey~ Really? Then how about we go get a midnight snack?"

"Sure, Lele, what would you like to eat?"

At this time, assistant Lele, who had been following them silently, was confused. What? What about me?!

She is just a nobody who likes to watch spectacles and support couples. Sister Xiaorong is such a nice person!
"I'm fine with anything." While speaking, she secretly glanced at Bai Youlou and found that his expression didn't change at all. It seemed that he didn't mind having an extra light bulb on his "date" in the evening.

Lele finally felt relieved, the boss is really a very nice person!

However, before setting out for supper, they encountered a little trouble.

If only Zhang Xiaorong came out of Mango TV, the singer's fans waiting outside would most likely not cause any obstacles to her.

The "advantages" of not being famous enough can still be reflected at this time, and you can still have a little "freedom".

But things would be bad if Bai Youlou was standing next to her!
I don’t know who yelled, “Bai Youlou?!”

Suddenly, countless pairs of eyes looked over.

Before the two could react, dozens of people immediately surrounded them.
Bad!

There's no way to get away now.

Bai Youlou was a little speechless, "Are you my fans? Go and block your real boss."

Ah this~
His words made his "fans" a little at a loss for a moment. Were they being questioned?

Go against Tiangang!

The girl who ran the fastest opened her Weibo and said: "I'm a big fan! I've been following you for more than three years!"

Chao! It really is.
Facing the smug "big fan", Bai Youlou didn't know what to say. Should he sign an autograph? Or take a photo with him?
He hadn't encountered such a situation for a while, and his brain suddenly went blank, and he subconsciously took out the cigarette.

"Okay, thanks for following me, but I don't have anything good to give you."

The young lady took the cigarette handed to her by Bai Youlou with a confused look on her face. She was stunned. What is this?

This "reverse support" is a big hit in the entire domestic entertainment industry!
Bai Youlou quickly finished the half pack of cigarettes he had on him, and looking at the group of people still standing there in a daze, he quickly grabbed Zhang Xiaorong and his assistant Lele, got into the car, and drove away!

Maybe it’s because most of the people who came to record the show today are talented singers, and the fans waiting outside are both male and female.

When Bai Youlou was distributing cigarettes just now, he skipped some who looked underage and mainly distributed them to men.

After he left, the men who received the cigarettes sighed: "This guy is great to be with! Actually, I'm not his fan, I just joined in the fun."

"He's really generous to give cigarettes to so many people."

"I don't think I've seen this cigarette before. Is it sold on the market?"

"It's quite expensive. I've seen it online. Yellow Crane Tower's Golden Years costs one thousand yuan a pack!"

"Is Bai Youlou from Shandong? This is so socially awkward~"

"Hey? He's a celebrity, right? Isn't he afraid of getting scolded for smoking so openly like this?"

Finally, someone discovered the blind spot.

right!

The domestic entertainment industry is still very strict. A while ago, an idol artist was photographed smoking and received a severe scolding.

Bai Youlou's behavior of distributing cigarettes openly is much more serious than his, right?
However, the few fans of Shin Shirata Matarou present did not find it particularly surprising.

Ever since "something happened", Bai Youlou started to become somewhat abstract and it was possible for him to do anything.
-
After the first episode of "Singer" was recorded, some photos of the show started to circulate online, and the official account of the show also released some clips of the show, which was considered an advance notice. The lineup of this season's show is still quite solid, which has attracted a lot of discussion.

There were a lot of opinions about who would win the championship.

However, Zhang Xiaorong was a little bit eye-catching here. Netizens didn’t know that she won the first place with an absolute advantage in the first episode.

They also felt that Zhang Xiaorong, who had just debuted through a talent show, might not be qualified to compete on the same stage with so many big names in the music industry.

The program crew thought that this kind of reversal would be very explosive, and even fueled this topic online.

You have to criticize first before you can praise.

Now that Zhang Xiaorong has confirmed that she can gain a complete foothold in this show, the criticism is no longer a criticism.

However, at this moment, fans who were cheering at the door last night released a video.

The video clearly showed Bai Youlou leaving with Zhang Xiaorong, and he took out a cigarette and started to talk.

It can be seen that this guy is a black guy.

Because his title was a bit malicious, directly pointing out that Bai Youlou, a public figure, was setting a bad example by doing this kind of thing.

After all, smoking is harmful to health.

However, apart from some people who can find an excuse to criticize Bai Youlou no matter what he does, netizens' opinions on this are quite funny.

"My dad just saw this video. He doesn't know Bai Youlou, but he told me that this guy is good to get along with. Hahaha!"

"My dad would probably like him too, he's really good with cigarettes!"

"No buddy, you're really rich? Does anyone know what kind of cigarettes Bai Youlou smokes?"

"I remember he didn't smoke before. I feel like he has really changed a lot after going through all those things. In the video, he doesn't even shave his beard. But the conditions are there, and he's still so handsome."

"I'm at the scene. I haven't smoked the cigarette that Bai Youlou gave me yet, but I feel like I've become a fan. The big star gave me cigarettes, and I feel like I can smoke them forever~"

"Tsk tsk, I used to see fans giving gifts to celebrities, but this is the first time I see celebrities giving gifts to fans at the scene. But giving out cigarettes is a bit too outrageous. The confused expression on the face of the girl who received the cigarette made me laugh to death."

"Why didn't you ask Bai Youlou to sign the cigarettes? I think they can be sold for a lot of money on Xianyu."

"The cigarettes he gave out were only fifty yuan a piece. Celebrities really make money!"

"Trivia: Bai Youlou made 300 million yuan from a movie, but he couldn't spend all the money even though he smoked 10,000 yuan a pack of cigarettes and got himself lung cancer."

"."

How can this shit become a trending search?
After waking up, Bai Youlou felt a little ashamed when he saw that this thing was the number one trending search.

Although it has often been on the hot search list before, this time it is a bit too nonsensical.

Is there nothing else happening in the entertainment industry recently?

He would never admit that he felt a little regretful afterwards because he accidentally picked the wrong pocket and took out the cigarettes he had taken from Lin Juntao.

Originally, he just wanted to send out the Huazi he got from Lao Zhou.
And this was not the only regret I had last night. After having supper, I returned to the hotel.

Originally, Bai Youlou was planning to go into Zhang Xiaorong's room naturally.

After all, he came quite suddenly and he didn't book a room.

As the saying goes, save where you can and spend where you can, ride your bike to the bar.

Mr. Bai doesn't have any extra food, so it would be great if he could save money on a hotel room.

Didn’t Zhang Xiaorong often tell him not to spend money recklessly? This time he wanted to save money and be a good man who knew how to live.

Although it is a bit crowded for two people to live in one room, Bai Youlou said that he can still overcome this small difficulty.

But Zhang Xiaorong seems unable to overcome it.

He used the room card to open the door, but at the last moment he pushed Bai Youlou out with a red face.
Of course, Bai Youlou was not the only one who was unhappy to see the hot search. He himself was somewhat grumpy because he had just woken up, but the other one was simply angry.

You little bastard, you took my cigarettes and gave them to your fans? You are quite a good person!
The good mood of the new day was ruined by this hot search.

Lin Juntao felt that the drink his secretary had just prepared for him seemed a bit bland.

But compared to being smoked by Bai Youlou, he had something more bothering him.
After thinking about it for a long time in the office, he finally called An Luning.

The call went through right away.

"Hey~ Taotao, what's the matter?"

"Ancestor, we agreed not to call me that." Lin Juntao said helplessly.

Compared to "aunt", the title of "ancestor" seems more normal.

Sometimes when he calls An Luning like this, others would just think that Lin Juntao dotes on her and would not associate it with the issue of seniority.

"I'm sorry, I forgot. Mr. Lin! Is there anything you want to talk to me about?"

"The film project over at Bai Youlou will be launched in the next two days. I'm telling you."

"Really?! That's great!"

Hearing An Luning's obviously happy voice, Lin Juntao couldn't feel happy. "Well, I heard someone say that you and him..."

"Hey~ My signal here is a bit bad suddenly, let's talk next time~ Bye~"

With a click, the call was hung up.

The signal was bad, that was her lie. It wasn't like we were filming in the mountains! How could the signal be that bad?

However, An Luning's "escape" made Lin Juntao confirm that Bai Youlou really did not fool him and was not just feeling good about himself.

This is how to do?
The two of them will have to make a love movie later. Based on Lin Juntao's understanding of An Luning, this girl might just go for it! She is very bold, and she has never been very secretive about what she likes since she was a child. She always plays an open and aboveboard approach.

He is even a little worried that An Luning might make a public confession on Weibo.
But~
Looking at the hot search about Bai Youlou again, this time Lin Juntao was looking at Zhang Xiaorong who was standing next to Bai Youlou.

I probably understood why Bai Youlou would directly tell him about An Luning's situation and asked him to take care of it.

Yes, everyone has their own preferences.

This girl named Zhang Xiaorong is not inferior to An Luning in appearance. Who is better depends on personal taste.

Moreover, Bai Youlou was eating hotpot at his place yesterday at noon, and he arrived in Hunan in the evening. With this speed, it is impossible to say that these two people are not having an affair.

After feeling a little relieved, Lin Juntao began to think about the movie "Daydreamer".

Compared to the art film "Before Sunrise", Lin Juntao certainly values ​​the latter more.

Last night, Huaxing had already studied Bai Youlou's script and felt that he was right when he mentioned the cost of 100 million yuan.

Part of this film required a lot of special effects, and the actual shooting part required going to very far away places to shoot. It can be said to be all over the world.

The cost of traveling from Dongji Island to Mount Everest is really difficult to control.

Bai Youlou even set part of his scenes at the Everest Base Camp.

That’s Mount Everest!
How much would it cost to move an entire crew up there?
It also has to be shot in real time.
All I can say is that whenever Bai Youlou opens his mouth, those who are responsible for paying the money are overwhelmed.

We need to find a few more "suckers" to share the burden.

There really are "suckers", just like Lin Juntao who agreed to Bai Youlou without blinking an eye.

The treatment in terms of making money before and after becoming famous is completely different.

The person Lin Juntao contacted was Liu Manli.

Liu Manli is not just a pretty vase. Of course, her Best Actress awards were not the reason why Lin Juntao contacted her.

It is not difficult to find someone to pay. It can even be said that a high-quality project is not short of money.

If you want to spend money, you have to see whether others are willing to take it.

Money is one thing, but more important is the supporting resources.

Just like Bai Youlou approached Lin Juntao, he was not short of film investment, but needed the distribution channels and connections from Huaxing.

It can be said that the successful release of "Whiplash" laid the foundation for this collaboration.

Huaxing's resources are mainly concentrated in China. It is a giant in the country and its radiating power can only reach the Asian region at most. Anything further is beyond its business scope and is out of reach.

Liu Manli has the resources in this regard.

She has won many international film awards, often appears at major international film festivals, and has extensive overseas connections.

However, after receiving Lin Juntao's call, Liu Manli directly said, "Vote for it! Director Bai's new movie, of course I'm interested."

Before Lin Juntao could be happy, Liu Manli added, "But my company wants a female lead, isn't that too much?"

It would be weird if it’s not excessive!
"Director Bai decides on the roles himself. I have no say in this."
