Because it was inconvenient to say some things when Su Yan was around. Chen Minhao could only excuse that the signal in the kitchen was not good and he had to go to the balcony to make a call.
Su Yan snorted coldly.
Chen Minhao smiled and said nothing, picked up his phone and went to the balcony.
In adult social etiquette, excuses are often well understood by both parties and are just tools for each other to step down.
Chen Minhao closed the balcony door and dialed Kang Hui's number. He lowered his voice and said, "Sister Kang, do you know about the messages my fans left on Xingtian Weibo?"
Kang didn't think about it and said directly: "As your agent, of course I know."
"Why didn't you tell me?" Chen Minhao thought that Kang Hui would cover it up a little. For example, he was too busy recently and wasn't very clear about it or didn't pay attention to it. But it turned out that she didn't.
Kang Hui chuckled and said: "What's the use of telling you? Can you fool Tianling and bring down the East China Sea, or can you stab the Heavenly Palace with a golden hoop
You have to remember that there are no real friends in the entertainment industry, especially artists like you who are of the same age and have similar positions, often encounter competition for the same resources.
For example, last time you and Lin Xiuzi competed for the fourth male lead in "Bing Dilian". It's also a good thing that Lin Xiuzi took the role of Wu Zijin, otherwise how could he not have any grudges. Or maybe you just have no grudge and don't show it.
Therefore, I have always opposed you making friends with insiders. If you get too close to your friends in public, you will definitely get pulled. But if the relationship is average in public, fans are likely to fight each other.
Of course, there is another possibility. You and your friend have a good relationship, and fans think you are pure good buddies. But if one day your good friend is exposed to bad news, such as cheating, drug abuse, domestic violence, etc., your future may be ruined because of him. Do you understand
When I first entered this industry and was still working as an agent’s assistant, there was an artist and his friend, the two of them... "
Kang Hui was still recalling her youthful years, but Chen Minhao interrupted her directly and said: "Sister Kang, I understand everything you said. Making friends in the industry will do more harm than good. Secondly, Xingtian and I are not so good that I can do it for him." To the extent that it harms my own future, I am considering other issues.”
Chen Minhao felt that Kang Hui underestimated him because he kept emphasizing his friends' problems. As an orphan in his previous life, Chen Minhao did crave friendship more than most people, but he knew better how to rely on everyone to survive.
Relying on yourself is the way to go.
Kang Hui was interrupted and asked in a slightly unhappy voice: "What's the problem?"
Chen Minhao said patiently: "What I want to say is the atmosphere of fans. The atmosphere of fans defying heaven and earth. Is it really good?"
Chen Minhao thought to himself that it would be better for him to take the initiative in the conversation and not let Kang Hui expand the topic infinitely.
Tang Hui chuckled and said, "Don't you think it would be best if fans are quiet for a long time and don't fight for them?"
Before Chen Minhao could speak, Kang Hui continued to add: "You are an idol now, a star, not an artist loved by the people. Do you have a celebrity status
Right now, you don’t have any celebrity status. Your current so-called celebrity status is all supported by your fans.
Your fans can leave messages on Xingtian’s Weibo to criticize him. Xing Tian's fans didn't dare to fight back, but instead tried to persuade him with nice words. The fundamental reason is that the number of fans between the two of you is too different, do you understand
Chen Minhao, if you don’t have fans, you will be ignored. There are no variety shows, no commercials, and no scripts. Xiao Jing, Xu Gaohan's fans will come up and tear you apart immediately.
Fans are everything to you now. Don't just sit back and relax after achieving some results. In the entertainment industry, your fans leave as quickly as they come. "
Chen Minhao understands what Kang Hui said. If Chen Minhao is still Chen Minhao, to be precise, if Chen Minhao is still Chen Minhao before time travel, it would be a good choice to let the fans grow fissionally and develop a culture of defying the sky and the earth. Because fans will become the moat for his status.
But Chen Minhao is now Chen Minhao after time travel, Chen Minhao 2.0.
He has a lot of songs from the previous life of Earth in his mind, as well as simple plots from several movies.
Therefore, Chen Minhao would not be willing to let him become a popular star just with the title of creative talent.
He will feel sorry for this time travel, sorry for the songs that have been "composed" by him or will be "composed" by him.
Once a fan's attitude of blaming the heaven and the earth is developed, it becomes harder and harder to reverse it. Therefore, it is not possible to let the fans grow wildly. After all, the fans must be guided. The number of fans is important, but the culture of criticizing the world is not polite. After all, idols will have to pay for the behavior of their fans sooner or later.
Chen Minhao said patiently: "Sister Kang, do you remember that I once asked you: What is your dream? You said at the time that you wanted to bring out a global superstar. In fact, I still don't know what constitutes a global superstar. But I A group of fans who feel that global superstars will not fight against each other.
For me now, every fan is very important, but once the trend of fans blaming each other is formed, it is difficult to reverse it. It's still in its infancy and can be remedied now, but I don't think there will be any chance of remediation in the future. "
Chen Minhao still remembers that when Kang Hui said that she wanted to bring out a global superstar, her eyes were shining. Dreams are actually a double-edged sword. Dreams give a person armor and weaknesses. Chen Minhao is convinced that Kang Hui really dreams, although her dream will become Chen Minhao's weak spot.
Chen Minhao remembered one thing Kang Hui once taught him: the goal is easy to achieve, the key is the means used.
Practice is the only comparison to test the truth. Today she will put this truth into practice on Kang Hui.
In fact, Chen Minhao can now make very strong demands, and the company is likely to agree. Even if the company doesn't agree, he can still wash off his fans in interviews and variety shows, but these methods are far inferior to reaching a "future fan development consensus" with Kang Hui.
Kang Hui was silent for a minute and said, "Well, I will think of a safe way to guide the fans. Your most important job now is to act well."
Chen Minhao, who successfully dealt with Kang Hui, just wanted to shout 666 to himself in his heart.
After hanging up the phone, Chen Minhao happily returned to the restaurant and started eating hot pot.
After Kang Hui hung up the phone, he sat on the sofa in the office, smoked two cigarettes in a row, and sighed.
In fact, Kang Hui knew Chen Minhao's thoughts very early on. He knew that he really wanted to be famous, and that he wanted to be famous with a "powerful" style. But in the eyes of the boss, the crazier the fans are, the higher the commercial value of the artist will be and the more money they will make.
They don't care whether their artists are famous or not. For them, the commercial value of artists is higher than anything else.
What bothered Kang was not how to guide the fans, but how to deal with the company's bosses.
Kang Hui held the extinguished cigarette butt in his hand. After sitting for half an hour, he stood up, stretched, and said to himself: "In this world, there are at least two ways to solve everything. One is the right way. One is my way.”
