Chapter 391 The Year of the Teddy Sisters
Although Liu Xiaoli was struck by various reports, the real protagonist of the entertainment news on July 7th was not Liu Yifei, but the Teddy sisters who were in full swing.
The reason is that on July 1st, "Double-sided Tape" starring Hao Lei and "Wolfbane Flower" starring Jiang Yiyan were broadcast at the same time, and they both achieved a good start.
When it first aired, the popularity and ratings of "Wolfbane Flower" even surpassed that of "Double-Sided Tape" - mainly because of the gimmick of "Xu Sang" playing a Japanese soldier again, which attracted a lot of attention.
But soon "Double-Sided Tape" caught up with it, and in just one week, it reached the top of the year's most popular dramas. I can't say that it is firmly in the top three, but it is definitely in the top five.
"Wolfbane" is actually pretty good. Although its rise is not as fast as "Double-sided Tape", it still has the potential to compete in the top 20 of the year.
In view of this, some media took stock. In the popular "Struggle" in May, Li Xiaolu and Jiang Xin were both from the Teddy Sisters, followed by Hao Lei, the heroine of "Double-Sided Tape", and the heroine of "Wolfbane Flower" The heroine Jiang Yiyan.
By the end of the year, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" starring Huo Siyan and Liu Shishi will also make its debut.
In other words, the six members of the Teddy Sisters have won at least five of the annual hits this year!
Counting Qin Lan who starred in "Assembly", that's seven people and six popular film and television dramas.
If you include Wang Baoqiang's "Soldier Assault", there are seven films for eight people.
And Gan Min became prosperous by relying on variety shows...
After taking stock, the media went so far as to define 2007 as the "Year of the Teddy Sisters."
Although this statement has not been widely recognized, the Teddy sisters have once again become the focus of media attention, and the most popular among them is Li Xiaolu, who has been strutting around the market with two foreign girls all day long.
However, the media is obviously more interested in their relationship with Xu Kun than the Teddy sisters themselves.
Therefore, the number of people who wanted to interview Xu Kun was no less than those who chased and intercepted Li Xiaolu. In the end, Xu Kun was so annoyed that he had no choice but to shut down his phone.
He was wondering if it was time to change his number again, but Liu Haibo came directly to his door and invited him to attend the celebration party of "Double-sided Tape" tomorrow night.
"What's going on with you?"
Liu Haibo complained while talking: "When I called at first, the line was busy, but when I tried to call later, it turned off immediately."
"Forget it, it's not because of those reporters."
Xu Kun waved his hands, indicating that he didn't want to talk about this anymore, and then joked: "Brother Liu, are you too anxious? Why do you have to wait until the first round of broadcasting is over before celebrating."
"Can't wait any longer."
Liu Haibo pretended to be worried and said with a sneer: "Li Yuchun has reached an agreement, and we will start to give her advance training in two days. We should hurry up and get other things done first."
"Tianyu relented?"
Liu Haibo and Teng Huatao have been negotiating with Tianyu these days. In addition to inviting Li Yuchun to star as the heroine, they also hope that Tianyu can postpone the release of Li Yuchun's second album to coordinate with the movie.
"We have almost talked about it. The main reason is that the ratings of "Double-sided Tape" have exploded, which has proved the strength of me and Lao Teng, so the other side is relieved."
As Liu Haibo spoke, he sat on the sofa and accidentally saw an invitation on the table. He couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Why did Fan Bingbing post an invitation for you? Is she getting married?"
"How is it possible?"
Xu Kun said: "They said they were going to set up some kind of personal studio. I didn't understand it clearly on the phone. Anyway, it's almost like a company. You can also take jobs and invest in movies and TV series."
"Isn't that a company?"
Liu Haibo curled his lips and said: "This woman is really capable of doing things. I originally thought she was going to join Chengtian Entertainment, but I didn't expect that she would start her own company."
Xu Kun felt that there should be a difference between a studio and a company, but he couldn't tell the specific difference, so he didn't argue with Liu Hai.
So he just explained further: "She will open tomorrow morning, and you will celebrate in the evening, so it will not affect each other."
"That's good."
As Liu Haibo said, he suddenly suggested: "How about you start a company? Don't mention anything else, just the few single gang members in the Teddy Sisters. If you save up, it will be enough.
When the time comes, I will rope in Lao Teng and join us. With the three of us directors here, I won’t be afraid at all in terms of connections and resources. ”
"Pull it down quickly."
Xu Kun disagreed: "I am extremely busy right now. If I open a company..."
"When you open a company, you can delegate more things to others!"
Xu Kun originally thought Liu Haibo was just joking, but as he spoke, he seemed to be getting more and more serious.
But Xu Kun is still not too cold. Now, although everyone has interests in each other to some extent, they are not put on the bright side. Once it is put on the bright side, many things will be completely different.
Apart from anything else, if we really sign a few women who are running single gangs, how will we allocate resources when we have them again in the future?
If a bowl of water is flat, those who signed the contract will definitely not be happy; if the bowl of water is not flat, those who have not signed the contract will not agree...
So Xu Kun just said perfunctorily: "Even if we want to do it, we have to wait until my contract expires, right?"
Liu Haibo stopped trying to persuade him.
The two chatted for a while, and seeing that it was already approaching noon, they decided to ask Baoqiang to go have something to eat nearby.
As a result, as soon as he came down from upstairs, he met Chen Xuebin, who was tired of travel.
"Why did you shut down your phone for no reason?!" Lao Chen asked as soon as he got out of the car: "The boss lady Zhou Yi called and said she couldn't contact you, which made me think something had happened."
"The boss lady of Zhouyi?"
Xu Kun was confused: "Why is she looking for me?"
"Aren't we going to replace Yu Bo?"
Chen Xuebin explained: "When the boss of Zhouyi heard about this, she wanted to discuss it with us, hoping to keep Yu Bo. If one must be eliminated, just eliminate Zhang Jin.
He also said that this was because Zhang Jin had just starred in "The World" and for the sake of fairness, he should give this opportunity to others. ”
"Shit fair."
Xu Kun curled his lips disdainfully: "If others don't know, how can I not know? That Yu Bo and the landlady Zhou Yi don't know each other. Usually when something good happens, they stick to Yu Bo first, but now I thought of asking for a bowl of water. Is it settled? ”
"I said so."
Chen Xuebin suddenly realized: "I thought that woman was a bit emotional. It turned out that she wanted to stand up for her little lover - so how should we respond to her?"
"You just say that the image positions of Yu Bo and Zhao Wenzhuo overlap, and Zhao Wenzhuo is more suitable for this role, so we have to give up on Yu Bo."
"Okay, actually I think so too, mainly because I'm afraid something might happen to you - Hey, why did you turn off your phone?"
“It’s not just because of the Teddy Sisters, my phone has been buzzing with calls this morning...”
…………
at the same time.
Yang Mi walked out of the school library with an acting book in her arms and was suddenly stopped by reporters who sneaked into the Beijing Film Academy campus.
"Hello, are you Yang Mi from the Teddy Sisters? Can't you answer a few questions for me?"
Although Yang Mi was preparing for the new Red Mansion in school, she had been paying attention to the news in the group, so she naturally knew why these people were here.
So she stroked her temples like a goddess and said with a toothless smile: "You can ask, but I don't guarantee that I will answer."
Hearing what she said, the reporter immediately put the microphone to his mouth: "As far as we know, the Teddy Sisters were founded in 2005. You were already the youngest sister of the sister group at that time, and you joined the group earlier than Liu Shishi.
So why are you the one with the least development among the sisters? Is it because you have been suppressed and excluded, or do you lack some necessary conditions for success than others? ”
The smile on Yang Mi's face was almost unbearable.
This person is not here for an interview, he is clearly here to cause trouble!
She secretly gritted her teeth and tried her best to maintain her grace and retorted: "Then you may not know enough. If you know enough, you will know that "Wang Zhaojun" starring me will be officially broadcast soon. And I am preparing for the new Red Mansion..."
Before Yang Mi could finish speaking, the reporter seemed to have discovered a new world: "So, the news that director Li Shaohong is about to take over the new Red Mansion is true?!"
Only then did Yang Mi remember that the news that Li Shaohong had taken over the New Red Mansion had not yet been officially announced, so he hurriedly said, "I didn't say that. I only said that I was preparing for the New Red Mansion."
When the reporter saw that she had come to her senses, he did not pursue the issue. Instead, he followed the flow and asked: "Then what kind of role will you play in the new Red Mansion?"
"It's hard to say now."
Having learned the lesson just now, Yang Mi originally didn’t want to reveal more, but after all, she is young and energetic now, and she doesn’t resent being said to be the weakling of the Teddy Sisters, so she still added: “But it must be consistent throughout. Important role.”
"Can you be more specific?"
When the reporter saw her expression of color, he made a deep guess: "Is it Baochai or Daiyu?"
"This..."
Yang Mi finally didn't get carried away, so she said vaguely: "It's up to the director to decide what I will play."
As a result, the reporter suddenly said: "So, Director Li Shaohong is not going to use actors selected from Beijing and Taiwan? What is the difference between director Li Shaohong and director Hu Mei?"
Oops!
I accidentally said too much.
Yang Mi was secretly annoyed and did not dare to quarrel with the reporter anymore. She quickly said: "How can I decide these things? Sorry, I have to go to the cafeteria to get food, so the interview will end here."
< br>
As he said that, he wanted to avoid the reporter.
As a result, the reporter also moved two steps, stopped in front of her again, raised the microphone and said: "Let's ask the last question, do you prefer Lin Daiyu or Xue Baochai?"
"This..."
Yang Mi thought for a while and felt that this topic should not be a big problem, so she replied: "Actually, I like them all, but if I really want to rank them, I would definitely prefer Sister Bao who is reasonable and reasonable."
As she said that, she walked around the reporter again, and this time the reporter did not stop her.
While she breathed a sigh of relief, she also had a headache about how to explain it to Li Shaohong - but there had been rumors outside that the director of the new Red Mansion was to be changed, so it shouldn't be considered a secret, right?
