At 2 o'clock in the morning, Weihushan Domineering BBQ Restaurant.

This barbecue restaurant was chosen by Lin Xiuzi. The name of this barbecue restaurant is domineering, and the decoration style is even more domineering. The tiger leather chairs, ammunition boxes, made in Hanyang, and heavy wooden tables and stools make it look like a copycat in Weihu Mountain.

On the dining table, there are fragrant mutton skewers, tender and juicy grilled chicken wings, sincere grilled prawns with cheese... Chen Minhao, who basically never eats late-night snacks, can't wait to turn into a glutton when he smells this aroma.

After Lin Xiuzi, who was wearing a mask, entered the private room, Chen Minhao stood up happily: "You are finally here, I am almost starving!"

Lin Xiuzi took off his mask and said with a confused look: "Didn't you have dinner? Besides, do I still need to make this relationship with you fake? Eat first when you are hungry."

Chen Minhao said with a toothy smile: "My manager arranged for the paparazzi to 'secretly photograph' us eating supper. I think it's not good to be photographed by the paparazzi as I started eating like crazy by myself without waiting for you."

Lin Xiuzi looked at Chen Minhao's glasses and said, "Chen Minhao, you are so lost. Now you have the baggage of being an idol."

Chen Minhao chuckled, then took out four cashmere teddy bears from his bag and handed them to Lin Xiuzi, saying: "Happy birthday!"

After Lin Xiuzi received the gift, he exclaimed in surprise: "Burberry's cashmere teddy bears, I love them so much!" Then he deliberately asked with a straight face: "As a brand ambassador, are you getting these bears from Burberry for free?"

Chen Minhao explained: "Don't doubt my sincerity. I bought this with real money, okay? Besides, I am just a close friend of their brand, not their brand ambassador."

Lin Xiuzi winked and said, "Stop pretending, I've seen it in our company's artist WeChat group."

"There really is no such thing as a shadow!"

"Burberry did not hesitate to step down on Liang Hui and use it to promote you to the top. I have heard about it."

"What the hell?"

"Liang Hui is now the brand ambassador of Burberry. They are willing to step on him to praise you, which means you will be the brand ambassador immediately."

Chen Minhao was speechless and choked. He raised his head and drank a whole glass of draft beer. Then he said with a sad face: "That's not what happened at all! It's just a photographer who was trying to trick me. In fact, the development of the matter is probably quite beyond Burberry's expectations." Then, Chen Minhao explained the matter in simple language.

Chen Minhao took a vicious bite of the leg of mutton and said, "Could it be that the bastard Liang Hui spread the rumor deliberately?"

Lin Xiuzi thought for a while and said: "It should not be Liang Hui's team who spread this rumor. After all, the rumor is not better than your version. I guess sometimes this kind of gossip will be distorted when spread in a short period of time. I guess there will be tomorrow Come out with your version and correct this gossip."

Both of them looked at the last chicken wing on the table. Chen Minhao said: "Then I won't be able to get the brand ambassador in the end. Wouldn't it be very miserable? Isn't this just a slap in the face? I'm so miserable, so I just gave it to the last chicken wing. I’ll eat it.”

Lin Xiuzi also took a sip of draft beer and said: "You are so miserable, even if the story is not the version spread by people, it is very likely that Burberry will ask you to be its brand ambassador.

Although no big brands have approached me for endorsement, brand friendship or brand promotion, I have spent a lot of time studying the brand cooperation systems of big brands. If the double seal photo is unbalanced, you can remove the weak one or the strong one. Liang Hui is not bad at popularity. He is now the brand ambassador of Burberry. It speaks volumes that Joya chose you instead of him when choosing one of the two in the double award.

Hey, I’ve researched so much, but no big name has approached me. It’s really miserable. "After saying that, he grabbed the last chicken wing.

Chen Minhao thought for a while and said, "I see that your Weibo data is not bad, and you will definitely have a chance. If there is a chance, I will definitely help you connect."

Lin Xiuzi sighed and said, "Hey, you don't understand. This is not a matter of connecting people. You are now positioned as an actor or a singer. And I am an idol."

Chen Minhao said casually: "Actually, I don't have any masterpieces."

Lin Xiuzi rolled his eyes and said: "You are now well-known among the people, and your evaluation is biased towards positive. Now many people who do not follow idols, are not in the food circle, and even older people know you. This is a big name When choosing an artist, that’s what matters most.

And where am I now? I basically rely on my fans for support. After leaving my fandom, my national popularity was zero. "

"Are you too pessimistic?"

Lin Xiuzi sighed and said: "Recently, my company gave me two male-leading dramas, "Love Storm" and "Aurora Love", entirely because the quotations for these two dramas were high, one was 5 million and the other was 7 million. I The scripts of these two dramas are really amazing, and it’s almost August now, and these two dramas will be filmed before the end of the year in December. The quality of the dramas can be imagined, and I guess that in the end, only my fans will look.

In addition, the company tried every means to make crazy money from my fans. Last month, our company's group held a concert in Shanghai. At that time, the company issued a concert gift package, which included a ticket, hotel, bus transfer, air tickets and some peripherals. Then the ticket price of less than 2,000 yuan turned into a gift package of about 8,000 yuan. I'm really angry!

As a result, some fans actually bought it. The surroundings inside said it was a collection bag, but it turned out to be an environmentally friendly bag. I was so angry that I wanted to die with my agent.

Hey, I really wanted to tell my fans on Weibo at that time, don’t buy it. But I feel that after I post it, I will definitely be banned by the company. "

Lin Xiuzi said in an envious tone: "I'm really jealous of you. Your company treats you so well. It won't let you accept rubbish scripts, won't let you accept rubbish advertisements, and won't try its best to suck the blood of your fans."

Chen Minhao sighed and said: "The money I make now is not as much as yours from one play. And as for the company, I am better at timing. If the company wants to be listed on the New Third Board, they need to cultivate a high-profile person." Celebrities come to prove their ability to make blood. For the company’s management, sucking the blood of shareholders is more important than sucking the blood of fans.”

Lin Xiuzi sighed and said: "This is all fate. I heard that my company is planning to create a wish gift package. To put it bluntly, it is asking fans to spend 1,200 yuan to buy more than 30 kilograms of beans?"

Lin Xiuzi took a sip of cold beer, and then said: "When an idol seems to have unlimited glory and quick money, but in fact, if you are groping and walking on the cliff, you will never know when you will fall. When you are an idol, It seems easy, but I’m always worried that one day all the fans will lose their followers and turn back to dislike me.”

Chen Minhao clinked glasses with Lin Xiuzi and said, "If you are unhappy and want to terminate the contract, I have 2 million here that I can lend you first to use as a termination fee."

Lin Xiuzi looked slightly embarrassed and said: "Well, brother, you misunderstood me. Didn't you say two days ago that you wanted to buy a house, but the house cost 30 million? I said all this, just to tell you not to make money quickly because of being an idol. , just give up your original advantages to become an idol.

If you're short of money, you can borrow it from me, or you can pay it back slowly. It's hard to get back money. Once you become an idol, it will be difficult to become a powerful person. After all, I'm waiting to hug your thigh. "
