Chapter 20 Gao Mang: Register for Douyin, compete for the best Internet celebrity, and aim for secon
Yang Bei remembered clearly that a few days ago it was only a thousand people away, so why did it become more than 800 people?
In the past, the original owner attached great importance to this. Every morning when he woke up, he would go to the official website of the General Administration of Culture to see his and She Ya's rankings. She Ya's rankings improved again and again, but the original owner's rankings were always outside the thousandth place.
Wander.
Later, after Yang Bei traveled through time, he didn't pay attention to this matter and didn't check it. Why did there suddenly be more than 800 people today?
Is it possible that the General Administration of Culture has also adopted the popularity of negative news? It would not make such a mistake, right?
Although Yang Bei has no intention of continuing in the entertainment industry, he is still very curious when he sees his ranking increasing so much, "Sister Mang, what's going on? Why am I ranked 832?"
Gao Mang glanced at Yang Bei. To be honest, she didn't expect that Yang Bei had no intention of getting involved this time.
Gao Mang said: "The song you sang in the bar yesterday was uploaded to Douyin by netizens, and it became a hit. It should have more than 10 million views now, right?"
Yang Bei was shocked when he heard Gao Mang's words. The song he sang in the bar last night was uploaded to Douyin? It has more than 10 million plays?
real or fake?
With more than 10 million views, it is definitely a hit video. No wonder the ranking has increased so much today. It seems that the General Administration of Culture may have noticed his popularity on Douyin.
Yang Bei secretly clicked his tongue. No wonder the short video field has become more and more popular in recent years. So many celebrities and artists have begun to enter the field of Internet celebrities that they didn't look at before. The traffic is really amazing.
Gao Mang pointed to the chair opposite the desk and said to Yang Bei: "Sit down first and let's talk slowly."
Yang Bei hummed, walked to the chair and sat down.
Gao Mang has been paying attention to Yang Bei's expression. She thought that Yang Bei would be surprised when he saw this ranking. However, it seemed that he was surprised, but the joy was not seen on Yang Bei's face.
Gao Mang frowned, what exactly was Yang Bei thinking? Was he really frightened by the public opinion online and wanted to quit the entertainment industry?
Gao Mang said: "Yang Bei, have you changed your mind now?"
Yang Bei shook his head, "Sister Mang, I still say the same thing, I think the entertainment industry is not suitable for me. Even if the company hides me for two years, I will accept it."
Gao Mang's face darkened. Doesn't this Yang Bei have any ambition? This morning, she was shocked when she saw that Yang Bei's ranking on the third-tier artist list had increased by more than a hundred places at once. This is so important in entertainment.
It is relatively rare in the industry. I thought that Yang Bei would be more excited, but I didn't expect that he would still be so salty!
Gao Mang shook his head, "Unless you spend money to terminate the contract with the company, I will be your agent for the two years until your contract expires, and you will always be under my control. If you are hidden, one
I can't afford to lose that person. Secondly, the resources in each manager's hands are limited. You can't take up a spot in my hand in vain, otherwise when will other potential artists be allocated to me?"
Gao Mang looked at Yang Bei, "How many million do you have now? Can you afford the company's liquidated damages?"
Yang Bei blinked, "How many millions?" If he hadn't won a 6,000 yuan bonus at the bar last night, he would only have a few hundred yuan now.
Yang Bei shook his head: "Sister Mang, I have no money, uh, not yet."
Gao Mang smiled softly and said: "Okay, when you get rich, you can talk to me about quitting the industry. You don't have to worry too much. Since you are my artist, I will definitely protect your interests.
Regarding this matter of online public opinion, I am already investigating, and if I find out information that is beneficial to you, I will help you."
Yang Bei thanked him.
Gao Mang nodded and continued: "Yang Bei, you are still young. Many of those super-stars in the entertainment industry made many big mistakes when they were young, or were wrongly accused, or really fell into trouble.
It happened, but they all survived. If you survive, you will be a superstar. If you cannot survive, you will be shot to death on the spot. I hope you can survive too."
When Yang Bei heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He understood what Gao Mang meant. She still didn't believe that he wanted to withdraw from the circle!
However, Yang Bei did not defend himself. At this time, explanations were of no use.
Gao Mang raised his eyebrows and remembered something. He bowed slightly and looked at Yang Bei: "Yang Bei, do you have a Douyin account? It's been authenticated!"
Yang Bei didn't know what Gao Mang was going to do, so he shook his head.
Gao Mang crossed his legs, frowned, seemed to be thinking about something, and asked: "Do you know about the 'Best Internet Celebrity'? An event organized by Douyin."
Yang Bei thought for a while, and he really knew about this "Best Internet Celebrity" event, mainly because every time he turned on his phone in the past two days, all kinds of news pushed were about this Douyin "Best Internet Celebrity" event.
At that time, Yang Bei was quite grateful to Douyin for organizing this event. Yesterday, he and She Ya were still on the headlines. Today, they were pushed out by Douyin as the "Best Internet Celebrity". How long can Douyin's event stay on the headlines?
God, maybe the negative news about him will stop.
As a veteran in the entertainment industry, he is very familiar with the urination of netizens. After a little time, netizens have almost forgotten about it. And since he has no plans to develop in the entertainment industry in the future, the impact on him will also be reduced.
Much less.
Yang Beidao: "I've heard of this event."
Gao Mang and Yang Bei sat face to face. The distance was quite close, so close that Yang Bei could see the standing eyelashes on Gao Mang's face.
Gao Mang said: "You will register a Douyin account later and participate in the ranking of the best Internet celebrities."
Yang Bei was stunned, participating in the best Internet celebrity?
Gao Mang continued: "If you can stand out among the best Internet celebrities, even if you enter the final top ten, you will benefit greatly. If you can get a higher ranking, you may even enter the ranks of second-tier artists.
Your situation will be much better then!"
Yang Bei opened his mouth and didn't know what to say for a moment. Should he praise Gao Mang as a good and responsible agent? Or should he say that she was looking for trouble?
However, seeing Gao Mang's happy expression, Yang Bei had a headache.
Gao Mang continued his analysis: "Compared to others, you have a unique advantage."
Yang Bei smiled bitterly and asked: "Now the Internet is telling me to get out of the entertainment industry, what advantage do I have?"
Gao Mang nodded quickly and said: "This is your advantage! These negative public opinions are also popular. If used well, they can have surprising effects."
Yang Bei: "..."
He also admitted that the method Gao Mang mentioned was indeed very effective. In just one night, one of his videos on Douyin became a hit, which increased his ranking by more than a hundred places. Although this was not the same as his
The current ranking is relatively low, but it can be seen that Douyin's traffic is huge, and the traffic of this "Best Internet Celebrity" promoted by Douyin must be even greater.
But the key point is that he's not interested. He really doesn't want to be in the entertainment industry now.
Gao Mang continued talking for a while, and seeing that Yang Bei remained silent, he frowned and said, "Why don't you speak?"
Yang Bei was silent for a moment and said, "I want to retreat."
Gao Mang directly raised his hand to interrupt Yang Bei's words, "Stop, don't say these four words again."
Gao Mang's face was slightly cold, his eyebrows were raised, and he glared at Yang Bei, "Yang Bei, it's not me to rub salt into your wounds. Now I understand more and more why She Ya doesn't love you. She Ya is ambitious and wants to become a super hero.
First line, but you have no ambition, how can she like you?"
Yang Bei snorted.
Gao Mang continued: "You are not in a desperate situation yet. You have to withdraw from the circle. Are you about to give up? Believe me, things will definitely turn around."
Ding ding ding.
While Gao Mang was speaking, the phone rang.
Gao Mang picked up the landline phone and
"Hello."
"Okay, when will the meeting take place?"
"Well, I'll be there later."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Mang snorted, looked at Yang Bei and said, "Okay, I won't tell you any more. As long as you don't terminate your contract with Zhengguang Entertainment, you will still be my artist and you have to listen to me."
Yang Bei groaned. In his last life, he had a high status and everyone he met respected him. This was the first time he met such a domineering agent.
Gao Mang's tone was a little cold: "I'm going to a meeting later. When you go back, register a Douyin account and then authenticate with your real name. Well, after authentication, send me your account and password."
Yang Bei opened his eyes and said, "Send it to you?"
Gao Mang nodded, "There is something wrong with your mentality now. You no longer have the ambition to make progress. I will operate the Douyin account for you."
After a pause, Gao Mang added, "Well, when you quit the circle, I will return your Douyin account to you."
Yang Bei felt a little funny, "But -"
Gao Mang waved his hand and said, "Stop it, I have to have a meeting later and I don't have time to bicker with you here. I still have something to ask you."
Yang Bei could only nod, "What's the matter?"
Gao Mang said: "Is that song on Douyin your original creation?"
Yang Bei hesitated for a moment, "A Dream Comes and Gone in the World" has never appeared in this world. If he rashly mentioned other people's names, he would only cause trouble.
Thinking of this, Yang Bei nodded and said, "Yes, I wrote it."
Hearing Yang Bei's words, although Gao Mang was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help being surprised.
As a senior manager, although she is not a music major and her musical level cannot be compared with those of professional singers, she still has the appreciation ability that she should have. The song Yang Bei sang on Douyin is definitely a good one.
What a rare quality song.
Anyone who can write songs of this level can definitely be said to be quite talented. Musicians like this have a high status in the industry.
Gao Mang looked at Yang Bei carefully again and said in wonder: "How come I didn't realize that you have this talent for writing songs before?"
After a pause, Gao Mang frowned and said, "Did you write this song by yourself, or did you and She Ya write it together? I have no other ideas, I'm just asking."
Gao Mang didn't need to explain, Yang Bei could understand the meaning of Gao Mang's words. Didn't he just question that this song was written by She Ya?
Yang Bei shook his head, "I wrote this myself, it has nothing to do with She Ya."
Gao Mang nodded and said with a smile: "That's good. What's the name of this song?"
""The Coming and Going of the Mortal World is a Dream"."
Gao Mang's eyes lit up, "This is a good name. After you go back today, send me the music and lyrics of "The World Comes and Gone a Dream". I will register the copyright. This matter is very important. Hurry up when you get back.
Send it to me. If someone else registers it, it will be more troublesome to deal with it."
Yang Bei nodded.
Gao Mang picked up his watch and looked at the time. It was still a while before the meeting just announced. Gao Mang asked with a smile: "I found that you gave me a big surprise this time. You are also an excellent singer and composer."
Where are the musicians, haha.”
Yang Bei smiled and said, "Maybe he sang the songs he wrote himself, which makes him feel more immersed."
Now Gao Mang looked at Yang Bei with a much softer look, with more appreciation.
Maybe it’s been a long time since I’ve known Yang Bei, but Yang Bei’s singing skills are actually so strong now. Gao Mang listened to that video and found that Yang Bei’s singing skills are comparable to those of first-tier singers, and the equipment in the bar is definitely not as good as those in the recording studio.
If the equipment were replaced with recording studio equipment, wouldn't Yang Bei's singing skills be even stronger?
Moreover, this time Gao Mang also saw good originality in Yang Bei. The development prospects of such musicians who are good at composing are far better than those singers who are only good at singing!
After chatting for a few more words, Gao Mang looked at the time and asked Yang Bei to leave first.
Yang Bei had just left. Gao Mang remembered something and forgot to ask where Yang Bei rented a house. How could the manager not know where the artist lived?
But I'm in a hurry for a meeting now, so I'll have to ask next time.
.......
Yang Bei didn't take the subway this time. It was the subway rush hour and there were too many people.
Yang Bei directly rented a shared bicycle on the roadside and rode it back to Jinxiu Community.
After returning home, Yang Bei took off his sunglasses and mask, registered a Douyin account, and then authenticated his real-name. After a while, the real-name authentication was passed, and a yellow V appeared on his avatar.
Looking for a piece of paper, Yang Bei wrote down the music and lyrics of "A Dream Comes and Gone in the World".
Then he sent the music, lyrics, and Douyin’s account number and password to Gao Mang.
He didn't want to be so tired in the first place, so he simply threw it all to Gao Mang. She was a workaholic, so let her have the headache.
When I moved yesterday, I bought some vegetables in the supermarket. Yang Bei planned to make tomato noodles for noon.
The water was boiling and just as I put the noodles in the pot, my phone vibrated twice.
Yang Bei picked up the phone and took a look. It was from She Ya.
"Meet you at the door of the Civil Affairs Bureau at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."
