Chapter 9 Chapter 09(1/2)
There has been no refutation of the rumors, and Mico's fans have become increasingly uneasy and agitated. Coupled with the continuous fueling of marketing accounts, all kinds of "fake candies" have flooded the Internet, and many people have begun to believe it.
Most of them were girlfriend fans. They felt cheated and began to attack Miko in turn:
【fraud!!!】
[Where is the promised husband? Oh, he has already fallen into the arms of another man. Damn it, the house is ruined.]
[Damn, I’m a fan of a gay, I’m dirty, likes and dislikes! 】
[If you lose your fandom, I will step back and wait.]
[Did I spend so much money on you to date men? If you want to be a traffic idol, then be a good one. If you don’t fall in love, will you die? 】
…
Seeing the decline of Mi Ke's Weibo, more and more fans expressed their desire to quit following Mi Ke, and various brands could no longer sit still.
Mico has dozens of endorsements and advertisements, and most of the buyers of the products are women. The brand owner keeps calling to ask whether the matter is true.
Han Yang was so overwhelmed with calls.
While explaining to the brand owners, he glared at Miko fiercely.
Sitting on the sofa with a pillow in his arms, Miko quietly watched the fans' abuse of him and blinked lightly.
…
Time passed by one second, and half an hour finally arrived.
Lu Yansheng was very punctual and called as soon as the time limit was up. Mi Ke took a look at Han Yang who was extremely angry with him, got up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.
Han Yang called to him, his face gloomy, "I'll pick you up right here."
Mico had no need to feel guilty, so he immediately sat down again and even turned on the external speaker, "How are you planning to clarify?"
The sound of typing on the keyboard and Lu Yansheng's cold voice came through the receiver, "First remove the hot search, and then the company will come forward, post announcements, show video evidence, and hold the rumor mongers accountable."
Miko thought the same way, "It's pretty much the same here."
Han Yang suddenly interjected, "Teacher Lu, won't you post on your blog? This matter involves sexual orientation. If you don't clarify..."
Lu Yansheng interrupted him and asked: "Who?"
"My agent," Mi Ke glanced at Han Yang lightly, "he was probably confused by the questioning call from the brand, and he is a little unconscious."
Han Yang heard the sarcasm in Mi Ke's words, and anger surged in his eyes, but he suppressed it again after remembering something.
Half a year, another half year, after Mico terminates the contract, he will not make it easy for Mico!
"I'm sorry, Teacher Lu, I was too busy." Han Yang apologized along the steps Mi Ke gave him.
Lu Yansheng responded indifferently and said to Mi Ke: "It is best to deal with the rumored scandal coldly. The person involved should not come forward to respond, otherwise it will easily backfire."
"Ok, I know."
Unless the romance scandal is true and both parties are ready to make it public, "pretending to be dead" is the best way to deal with it. If it becomes more popular, netizens will stop paying attention.
But once I respond, the hot searches will not go down and it will only attract more people to watch and gossip.
After hanging up the phone, Mi Ke looked at Han Yang, "I received the video, I'll send it to you."
The brand owner could no longer sit still, and public opinion was almost out of control. Han Yang didn't say anything else. After receiving Mi Ke's video, he asked Lexia to send him the written copy and soft articles, and picked up the computer to start public relations.
Mico went to wash off the cup, went back to the room to get the script, turned over the scenes to be shot in the afternoon, and stopped paying attention to the situation online.
After a while, the phone he placed next to him suddenly vibrated with a WeChat message.
Miko picked up the phone and unlocked the screen.
[Lu Yansheng]: I will compensate you for your losses.
Lu Yansheng is an actor, has works, and has the title of Best Actor. For him, unless he commits a problem that hinders social order and good customs and touches the bottom line, it will not have much impact on him.
Mico is different. Mico is traffic and a well-known figure in the industry. If he doesn’t count variety shows, he has no masterpieces. Brands cooperate with him because of his large fan base and willingness to spend money, rather than his strength. Once his
Fans have lost their followers on a large scale, and the brand will no longer continue to cooperate.
The corners of Miko's flat lips curled up a little, and he replied: [Okay.]
He was not so generous. In the last half hour, a brand did propose to terminate the contract. Although it was only a short-term endorsement, the liquidated damages required him to pay real money, which was a lot of money.
Miko was very curious and asked: [What is the compensation? Can I discount it in cash?]
[Lu Yansheng]: I have a pretty good book here, the male protagonist.
The phone buzzed again and it was Lu Yansheng who had also sent the script.
After receiving the script, Mico forgot to breathe for a moment.
He thought the compensation would be one or two gifts, luxury goods or antiques, calligraphy and paintings, etc. Unexpectedly, Lu Yansheng directly gave him a script.
His heart skipped a beat, and he slowly sat up straight, straightening his back.
[Lu Yansheng]: Take a look.
Putting his fingertips on the document, Miko bit his lip. After all, he couldn't resist the temptation and clicked on the script.
This is a movie script with some fantasy content. It tells the story of the male protagonist who rescued a cat when he was seeking death. The cat was not an ordinary cat. It was a demon that had been practicing for hundreds of years. In order to repay his kindness, it promised to the male protagonist.
Three wishes.
The male protagonist wanted to save his deceased father, so he exchanged his wish for three opportunities to travel through time and space. However, each time he traveled through time would cause a butterfly effect, and in the end he was unable to save his father's life.
The story is not new, but it has rarely been brought to the big screen.
Mico read ten lines at a glance and quickly read through the script.
On the last page of the document, he saw a sentence left by the director: "The loss of life cannot be undone. Please cherish the time now and get along with the people you love. Don't wait until you lose it and then regret it."
It is the truth that the whole story wants to illustrate. The object is not only family members, but also anyone around you.
Mico liked this story very much, but when he thought about his full schedule, he lowered his eyes and the light in his eyes dimmed.
He simply doesn't have time.
Moreover, he is not capable of acting well.
[Miko]: If you have seen my play, you should know that my acting skills are very poor, but the script is very good, so giving it to me would be a waste.
[Lu Yansheng]: If you are very bad, just study. If you feel you can’t perform the character’s psychology, then go collect and experience it. Art is based on reality, and actors have to return to life.
Mico's fingertips trembled slightly. He really wanted to agree, but experiencing life and learning acting skills required a lot of energy and time. What he lacked most now was time.
It would be great if this script came out after he terminated the contract.
Mico concealed the loss and regret in his heart.
[Thank you, but forget it. An excellent script should be paired with excellent actors, which I am not now.]
—
On the other side, Lu Yansheng frowned.
After Gu Xiangxing edited the clarification announcement and published it in the name of the company, he stood up and moved around. Seeing Lu Yansheng's expression full of confusion and dissatisfaction, he walked to him and said, "What's wrong? Mi Ke doesn't like Lin Hang's script.
Refuse to answer?"
"no."
Opening the window, Lu Yansheng lit a cigarette and threw the phone to Gu Xiangxing, letting him look at it for himself.
After quickly reading the content of their chat, Gu Xiangxing laughed and said, "He is quite self-aware."
Lu Yansheng raised his eyelids and looked at him expressionlessly.
"...I was wrong, pretend I didn't say it." Gu Xiangxing touched his nose and returned the phone to Lu Yansheng, "Speaking of which, I heard something. After Mi Ke's contract expires, he plans to sign with Dong
Xing has terminated the contract."
Taking the kettle to fill it with water and setting it to boil, he took out the black tea from the locker, opened a pack and put it into the teapot, "Miko's net worth has risen rapidly in the past two years, and he is the most profitable artist in Dongxing.
Mico's huge number of fans means that no matter what he does, people will buy him in. He can easily earn millions in salary by acting in a TV series without any acting skills. He can also start a variety show with tens of millions of dollars, and he can do advertisements and
Not to mention endorsement, the price is almost the same as yours."
Lu Yansheng flicked the ashes from his cigarette, thoughtfully.
After the water boiled, Gu Xiangxing began to make tea, "Lin Hang's script is good, and if it is well shot, there is a certain probability that he will win an award. However, these reputations were all added to Mico. By then, Mico had terminated the contract.
Dongxing won’t get any benefits.”
"Han Yang is not a good person, and Dongxing does not do charity. Mico was supported by them. Now that Mico will not renew his contract and is determined to leave, they will definitely use the last period of time to squeeze out all the remaining money from Mico.
Value, make more money.”
He shrugged and concluded: "So they will not allow Mico to take on such a project that is time-consuming, laborious, and unprofitable."
Gu Xiangxing spoke very straightforwardly, and Lu Yansheng finally understood Mi Ke's situation.
Lu Yansheng was silent for a while, put out his cigarette, returned to the sofa, picked up his phone and sent another WeChat message to Mi Ke.
[Lu Yansheng]: The movie is still in preparation and will not start shooting until next year. You can think about it carefully.
Gu Xiangxing was drinking tea and his eyes fell on Lu Yansheng. His heart was itching and curious. He couldn't hold it back and said, "You asked me to give you Lin Hang's notebook last week. Are you planning to give it to Mi Ke?
