Chapter 32
Taking the elevator back to the office area upstairs, Cheng Duan finally felt a little more comfortable. He turned to look at Cao Ye standing beside him: "I just left Liang Sizhe for dinner. Why did you interrupt me so quickly? Why don't you want to have dinner with him?"
"I don't care," Cao Ye leaned against the elevator wall behind him. "But he doesn't want to stay, can you not see it?"
"He doesn't want to think so, right?" Cheng Duan was confident that he would not be fooled by others. Cao Ye said this, and he recalled Liang Sizhe's expression at that time, "I really didn't see it."
"He is very annoying to deal with the investors." Cao Ye said to the trailer for the company's new replacement on the screen on the elevator wall.
"Oh..." Cheng Duan thought about it, and suddenly realized after a while, "Ah, do you know such a private idea?"
"Well... I guessed." Cao Ye said, thinking that he was not guessing, but Liang Sizhe said this to him in person. It was a long time ago. Liang Sizhe just got drunk and said casually, so even Cao Ye was surprised why he remembered this until now, and even remembered the scene where he said this at that time. How long ago did that happen? It must be another year after Liang Sizhe won the first actor... Yes, after "Thirteen Days", before "Red Man and Red Girl".
"Ha, why am I so unbelievable..." Cheng Duan suddenly felt that even if he mentioned Liang Sizhe to Cao Ye now, he wouldn't be very good at blowing up, so he tilted his head and approached Cao Ye and whispered, "So Mr. Cao, what's the story between you two? It's not just Lin Huan?"
"Ah." Cao Ye responded.
Cheng Duan didn't expect that he would take the initiative and continued to cliché: "Why tell me?"
The elevator reached the tenth floor and the door slowly opened. Cao Ye walked out and said, "Didn't you guessed it? What other stories can you have when you meet an old lover?"
"Really, false?" The dosage of this gossip was too large, and Cheng Duan's curiosity was immediately fully mobilized. He followed and asked, "You are actually double? Haven't heard of it..."
Cao Ye turned his head and looked at him, laughing: "Do you really believe it?"
Cheng Duan suddenly realized that Cao Ye was just joking and sent him away. He paused and then quickly followed: "The tone of your words just now is exactly the same as Liang Sizhe, do you know?"
Cao Ye looked at him and smiled: "I didn't expect you to take it seriously. Vice President Cheng, you are so easy to cheat. Someone in the company speculated that you were seeking power and seizing the throne?"
"Are you in a good mood today? You actually made a joke about me," Cheng Duan put his arm on his shoulder and lowered his voice, "But to be honest, he is quite different from what I think of as a first time working with Liang Sizhe."
"What do you think?"
Cheng Duan thought for a while and said, "From the image created by the media... he should be a big shot, likes to show off people's face, and is quite difficult to cooperate with."
Cao Ye sneered: "You, a senior executive of an entertainment company, actually believe in the media."
"He rarely reveals his life on his own initiative. Everyone's impression of him is pieced together based on media reports... So if you don't believe in the media, what is your impression of him?"
"I..." Cao Ye paused. Yes, what Liang Sizhe has become over the years? He thought about it and found that he couldn't explain it clearly.
"Say it." Cheng Duan urged him.
Cao Ye came to his senses and pretended to be stupid: "Hmm? What did you say?" After saying that, he realized that the specialty of pretending to be stupid when he was young seemed to have not come in handy for a long time.
"You are also distracted as you speak." Cheng Duan said helplessly.
At this time, Cao Ye's cell phone started to vibrate. Cheng Duan glanced at it. It was a video invitation sent by Qin Zhenzhen. The scene of Qin Zhenzhen coming to the studio to audition that day appeared in his mind. It looked like a very cold girl, but she didn't expect it to be so clingy.
Cao Ye touched the screen with his thumb and refused the video invitation. Qin Zhenzhen immediately sent an angry emoticon on the chat interface, followed by a line of words: "I want to see you!"
"See you tonight."
"I want to see it now."
Cao Ye turned off the screen and did not reply to the message.
He wants to end a relationship again.
He has a good job, few things, and is not clingy. For him, the importance of these three advantages increases in turn, but in Qin Zhenzhen it decreases in turn.
When you meet a clingy girl, you will have the idea of getting out of here. Cao Ye doesn't know when he got into this problem. Sometimes he will think clearly that this is almost a mental illness, right? Who will not clingy when you fall in love? Unless you meet a girl like Lin Huan again, Lin Huan is not clingy just because their relationship is not a lover but a friend...
——Is it inherited from Cao Xiuyuan? Cao Ye thought this way, and soon felt a little funny. How deeply he was prejudice against Cao Xiuyuan, so he thought of taking everything on him...
——
The image imaging effect of the makeup photo is very good. Liang Sizhe himself may not be very easy to get along with, but it is really worry-free when it comes to photo editing. The photo editing master does not need to adjust too much of the photo himself. He only adjusted the color tone slightly and then sent the photo to the publicity team for review.
After discussion, the publicity team finally decided on three photos. At first glance, the visual effects looked amazing and almost equal. The publicity supervisor was undecided and went to Chengduan's office to discuss the release plan with him.
"I probably have no right to decide on this matter," Cheng Duan looked through the three selected makeup photos, got up from the seat and said, "Let's go and take you to see someone who can make an idea."
A few minutes later, the propaganda supervisor stood at the door, looked up at the words "President's Office", and a cold sweat dripped on his forehead and said, "Does this matter require such a big battle..."
"Just in case." Cheng Duan smiled and knocked on the door and entered Cao Ye's office.
"The makeup photo is repaired," Cheng Duan explained the purpose as soon as he entered the door. "The three photos that have been set are good at present, but if all three photos are sent out at one time, it will destroy the mystery, and the effect may be poor. So, you still need to decide which one to choose, Mr. Cao." He said, lowering his head and passing the three photos to Cao Ye on his mobile phone.
Cao Ye's cell phone on his desk buzzed a few times and received a photo from Cheng Duan.
"I said I was not worried about you seeking power and usurping the throne. You still come to me for publicity," Cao Ye said this, but did not refuse him directly. He reached out to grab his cell phone, "I will get half of my monthly salary."
"You can see first." Cheng Duan smiled.
Cao Ye's fingers slashed the screen, and Cheng Duan explained to him: "These three photos should be good, but from the perspective of pure publicity, this picture should be the highest discussion," Cheng Duan reached out and stroked his screen twice. "Because the makeup photo Huang Qianshi posted at that time, the shape and movements were almost exactly the same as this one, and the comparison between the two versions was the most obvious, so the online discussion might be quite high..."
"Don't want this one." Cao Ye simply denied.
Cheng Duan raised his eyebrows and said, "Hmm? Reason?"
"Do you really think he is a substitute?" Cao Ye looked up at him, "and he even found Zhang Yi's exact same trick. This trick was too obvious."
"But this one is better than Huang Qianshi's one, so you shouldn't be scolded..." The propaganda manager explained cautiously.
Cao Ye looked at the photo and shook his head: "The effect is put aside and it's different. Just saying that he has to compare Huang Qianshi's attitude will look quite petty."
Cheng Duan said calmly: "When you are doing business, there will be discussion only if you have comparison."
Cao Ye did not mean to bargain with him, so he marked the photo to the next one and pointed the screen with his finger: "Select this one."
Cheng Duan took a look and it was the scene of Liang Sizhe turning back to the camera. The interweaving light and shadow set the almost hideous scar on his face and the playful and cold expression between his eyebrows and eyes to the extreme. The whole composition exudes a crazy hysterical meaning. From the artistic level alone, this picture is indeed the one with the best texture.
But the most important thing about publicity is the discussion... Although I felt a little bit in my heart, Cheng Duan still nodded calmly and said, "Okay, then this one." I thought to myself, thanks to a special trip to ask, I still can't take it lightly when it comes to Liang Sizhe...
At 8 o'clock the next night, Liang Sizhe's scar makeup photo was released online, and the discussion quickly increased.
Cao Ye’s judgment was right. Liang Sizhe did not need to compare with Huang Qianshi to strive for discussion. He himself could form a huge whirlpool of public opinion.
Liang Sizhe has played many impressive roles, including Xiaoman, the son of the bathhouse owner, Li Er, a transvestite, a gay man living at the bottom, a handsome and romantic Yue Opera actor... But this is the first time such a hysterical villain has appeared in the audience's sight.
Except for the film directed by Liang Sizhe, he has almost never played a supporting role. Cao Xiuyuan once said that he could not be a supporting role because he would steal the light of the protagonist when he appeared on the screen.
"The audience's vision and feelings are limited. After they see Liang Sizhe, they cannot have the extra vision and feelings to allocate them to another actor."
After Cao Xiuyuan said this for a long time, Cao Ye realized something. Cao Xiuyuan would do something wrong and would say something wrong. He is a genius, not a god, and a genius is also an ordinary person.
For example, now, he personally proved that what Cao Xiuyuan said was wrong. Liang Sizhe can play supporting roles, and he does not need to hide his own light. Cao Xiuyuan said that just because he has successfully portrayed many impressive protagonists, but has not yet portrayed an excellent and stunning villain and supporting role.
After the final makeup photo was released, the online public opinion was lively for a long time. Against Huang Qianshi's backdrop, Liang Sizhe, who has always had a very poor media image, has almost made a big splash this time.
——"Oh my God, it's really officially announced. The film crew is awesome. It actually got Liang Sizhe!"
——"This makeup photo is hardcore. Liang Sizhe is so handsome. He just pressed Huang Qianshi's version on the ground to rub it."
——"The texture is amazing. Those who said that Liang Sizhe, who said that Cao Xiuyuan is nothing, are there? Can you come out and slap in the face by yourself?"
——"Compared with Huang Qianshiyi, Liang Sizhe can be named one of the top ten actors in China..."
But everything will turn back. As the praise grows higher and higher, the sarcasm comes quickly:
——"Is it ironic to say that the top ten Chinese actors moved? Liang Sizhe almost entered the bureau a few years ago because of beating a reporter. Fans wouldn't think that the audience had collective amnesia, right?"
——"A single makeup photo can make fans climax in a series of orgasms. Liang Sizhe's walking pile driver is truly worthy of his reputation."
——"If I want to say that the film company wants to be released successfully, it shouldn't have invited Liang Sizhe to act like a big shot, breaking the contract and stopping the show in the middle, beating reporters at the press conference, and publicly standing on the street pedophile... None of the things that the actor Liang did are more worry-free than Huang Qianshi, right? You can't get the actor who can win the actor who Cannes because of his good acting skills."
