Chapter 68: Popularity surges
Baoqiang is leaving.
He went to Wanwan to attend the Golden Horse Awards. For this party, he gritted his teeth and bought a suitcase, which made him feel so sad.
He would rather spend his money on washing his feet.
You know, in the past, when I went out, I always carried it in a snakeskin bag.
This time he was going to Wanwan. He couldn't embarrass the mainland actors, so naturally he had to straighten his head.
On the side of the road, Qin Chuan escorted Baoqiang to the bus and gave him a bag before leaving: "I don't have anything to give you. After much thought, I decided to give you a suit, just in time to receive the award."
Baoqiang refused: "Brother, I can't have it, it's too expensive."
He knew that Qin Chuan was generous and this suit was certainly not cheap.
"I bought it in your size. You can't return it. Can I still wear it if you don't want it?" Qin Chuan stuffed the bag into his hand: "I went there to receive an award this time. I don't have a better set of clothes. After I go on stage, How shabby.”
Baoqiang said implicitly: "I may not win the award. It is very likely that I will just go through the motions and the camera may not even catch me."
"Be confident, just think that I borrowed it from you. After you get the prize, you can pay me back after you make money."
Others didn't know it, but Qin Chuan knew it all too well. Bao Qiang's departure was the beginning of his takeoff, and his momentum was even stronger than Huang Bo's.
"This is okay." Baoqiang reluctantly accepted the suit.
When the bus arrives, Baoqiang and Qinchuan say goodbye.
After Baoqiang got in the car, he opened the window and waved to him. Qin Chuan was really afraid that a big truck would suddenly come and plow him away.
…
The eighth day of the Lunar New Year has just passed, and the raging spring is gradually extinguishing.
CCTV and Tian Long Ba Bu are very popular.
There are no entertainment facilities in this era, just watching TV series, martial arts is also a long-lasting popular theme.
This TV series that combines martial arts, love, family and country, and revenge has attracted most of the audience, including children, young people, and middle-aged people.
The first person to become popular was Hu Jun. Before the show was finished, the newspapers were already full of interviews with him.
Followed by Liu Yifei.
Before joining Nortel, she played the role of The Golden Pink Family, which was also quite popular.
But that was a modern drama, and it was different from the costumes of this time. Dressed in costume, she was at the peak of her appearance. She attracted countless fans and had constant film appointments.
In school, she also became a star student. Even when she was in the theater, everyone knew that Nortel had a fairy.
Of course, there are also a lot of negative fans, saying that her acting skills are not good, that she looks ugly, and so on.
"Just once, I'll accompany you to see The End of the World."
At the same time, Qin Chuan's second song was released.
Just when You Tanzhi was disfigured, put on a mask and turned into Tie Chou, the audience felt sorry for him.
The delicate face and warm and healing voice are completely different from those in the TV series.
In terms of publicity channels, Jin Lian spent a lot of effort, "edging through" Tianlong Babu in various ways, and finally slowly combined the song with You Tanzhi, and the name Qinchuan was born.
After Qin Chuan went to several media interviews in succession, his popularity began to rise.
"It turns out it's him. He also sang the Gulou song before. I've heard it."
"I heard his songs during the Golden Era last year, and I didn't expect that he would become a star in just one year."
"This guy is really good at playing folk songs. He's out of the loop."
"I think he has a better future in music than as an actor."
"You're a kind man, both songs are distributed for free. You guys have a blog, right? I'll give it a follow."
The folk song circle is not big. Half a year ago, Qin Chuan released the song "Drum Tower", which made waves in the folk song circle. When many people in the industry were waiting for him to show up, he disappeared.
As a result, this year he came back with a song that is easy to kill, and he also acted in a TV series. Combining the two, his fame suddenly soared.
Anyone who plays folk songs now knows that there is a young man named Qin Chuan who is a singer and part-time actor.
In the rental house, Qin Chuan sat in front of the computer, watching the number of fans on the blog continue to increase, and calmly typed on the keyboard to respond to the fans' curiosity.
In recent days, his number of fans has doubled several times, and now he has more than 300,000 fans. He is considered a big blogger on this platform.
Blogs are a new product. There were not many artists in the early days, and the content sections were mixed and varied. It was a bit like a forum.
Weibo in later generations was just one section of the blog.
While Qin Chuan was still chatting with netizens, Jin Lian called.
"Qin Chuan, good news. There is a TV series project over there at the headquarters. It's called Dandelion. I plan to recommend you to go over and audition for the male lead. Just prepare your time and we can leave at any time."
Although Sugar Man Film and Television is just a company that has just been born a few years ago, it is actually very powerful and works with top-tier artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan in every film.
It has many artists under its banner, and it uses first-line artists to lead its own artists.
However, starting this year, the news that Hong Kong Island will embrace the mainland market has become known to everyone, and various details are not made public secrets.
Cai Yinong, who has a keen sense of smell, is ready to change his previous style of play and start promoting his own artists.
The TV series Dandelion is a test of the waters.
Jin Lian was so anxious to inform Qin Chuan now because she knew that with Qin Chuan's current advantage, it was not impossible to win the male lead.
If this drama becomes popular, Qin Chuan will avoid three years of detours.
"Sister Jin, what is this dandelion about? Can you give me some information? I'll take a look first and then talk about it."
In Qin Chuan's impression, Sugar Man is still good at doing costume dramas, while Dandelion doesn't sound like a costume drama and has no memory.
Could it be a street drama?
If it is really a street drama, it is better not to act. It is a complete waste of time.
"I'll send it to you later."
Jin Lian thought Qin Chuan was preparing for the audition in advance, so she didn't think much about it. Instead, she was pleased with his progress and stability.
Soon, Qin Chuan received an email from Jin Lian with a partial outline of Dandelion.
The content of the story is very unfamiliar, I have never heard of it at all.
In order to let Qin Chuan know himself and his enemy, Jin Lian even packaged and sent the list of his opponents for this audition.
In the list, Qin Chuan saw at a glance the names of Hu Ge and Yuan Hong, signed by Sugar Man Film and Television from the headquarters.
"It turns out Hu Ge signed it so early."
Qin Chuan thought Hu Ge was a sugar man signed during the Sword Immortal period, but he didn't expect that Hu Ge was already at the headquarters.
Speaking of which, it was no accident that he was able to play Li Xiaoyao later. He had been working hard in the company for several years and just missed the mark.
"Qin Chuan, what do you think?"
Jin Lian called and asked.
"Sister Jin, I feel that this drama is not in line with my temperament. I am not yet twenty years old and my face is too tender. If I am asked to play the role of the father of a six-year-old child, I can't do it, so I don't plan to audition. "
After reading the synopsis, it is indeed an urban drama.
And with this audition cast, Qin Chuan knew that this play would most likely not be popular in future generations.
Because if he didn't audition, the male lead would most likely be Hu Ge's, and Hu Ge was not well-known before Fairy Sword.
A little extrapolation shows that filming this movie was a waste of time.
