Falling in love with my idol - this was a daydream that Ji Ning would never dare to dream even if he had a hundred dreams. Not only did he realize it now, but fate also told him that he would have to dream it for three months.
Countless complex emotions surged up in her, she was unable to speak and forgot what to do.
Ji Shiyan didn't get a response for a long time, and asked with a little doubt: "Ji Ning? Are you there?"
She raised her eyes, finally awakened, and said quickly, "Yes... yes."
Then he stretched out his somewhat cold fingers and touched the front end of his joints.
That wasn't actually a complete handshake, but it was like the white moonlight finally landed in front of him, and he was always reserved and restrained, not daring to get too close.
Ji Shiyan twisted his fingertips thoughtfully, and seeing Ji Ning's half-dead look, he said softly, "I have a gift for you."
Ji Ning bit his lip and shyly touched his box: "I have a gift too."
This was prepared by the program team. The guests would give each other gifts when they first met, but her gift...
Ji Shiyan opened the gift she gave him and found a green little monster U-shaped pillow with an eye mask next to it. It was extremely cute.
The person involved, Ji Ning, is regretting it now, very much.
The most awesome actor in the universe, Ji, who was undoubtedly the best even in the edited CP video, actually let her give him such a soft and cute gift. If she were Ji Shiyan, she might have crushed it on the spot.
But Ji Shiyan is a calm and well-mannered man. Faced with such "humiliation", he still curled his lips appropriately: "Thank you, it's very interesting."
Very sincere, well acted.
He took out the things he had prepared from behind his back and asked her to open them and have a look.
When Ji Ning untied the silk ribbon, she felt something was wrong. This gift seemed to be much more thoughtful than hers. Lying in the middle of the Endless Summer petals was a red-covered notebook with a pen next to it.
Ji Shiyan explained the reason why he gave the notebook as a gift: "I hope it can be a carrier of your beautiful memories and record the meaningful moments along our journey."
Look at her level, the blind delivery actually touched upon her love for keeping a diary, and even the Endless Summer Petals that served as a foil were her new favorites, and the expression was so profound.
Ji Ning immediately felt that his little monster had dropped several levels, so he could only bite the bullet and add: "I gave you the pillow for a reason, that..."
There's no reason for it. I just saw it while shopping and thought of buying a gift for it. Who knew it was for you? This is the truth that I definitely can't tell.
She licked her lips and said quickly, "I hope all the dreams it brings you are sweet dreams."
It feels good. She is really good at adding the finishing touch to a woman's work.
It seems that being harassed more by unscrupulous media has its benefits, as our emergency response capabilities have been significantly improved.
After listening to her, the man laughed in a deep voice. The magnetic sound quality was like a warming agent, and she felt a faint burning sensation in her ears.
Just when she was about to say something, she saw the staff constantly giving her hints with their eyes, and then she remembered that today it seemed that they only had to shoot until the gift-giving, and Ji Shiyan should have a commercial to shoot later.
So she raised her head and smiled at him, which was considered an ending. When she lowered her head, she heard the man say, "Then let's..."
She thought Ji Shiyan had started discussing the next activities with his agent, but out of the corner of her eye she saw him pick up the indescribable little monster. There was an inexplicably harmonious contrast between his slender fingers and the cute pillow.
She felt extremely ashamed, raised her hand and hit the board to indicate the end of the filming, bowed, said "see you next time" and ran away.
Ji Shiyan didn't react until a few seconds after she ran away, but before he could call her, the girl's figure had disappeared at the door, and he didn't even have the chance to say "Add me on WeChat", which he was about to say.
///
Ji Ning seemed to be in a dream. After returning to the hotel, he opened Song Yu's chat box and sent her an emotionless message: Ji Shiyan and I are in love.
A reply came quickly from the other end. She could even imagine the angle from which Song Yu rolled her eyes: Haven’t you and Shi Yan been married for three years? So, are you planning to follow the trend of getting married first and falling in love later
"… "
Ji Ning took screenshots of his own notice and the dating photos that Nuonuo had secretly taken and sent them over. This time, the other party did not reply for a long time.
Ji Ning: Where are you
Song Yu: I had just hanged myself and was discovered by my neighbors who sent me to the hospital emergency room. The anesthetic had just worn off when I got my cell phone. What happened
…
Song Yu: When I was about to reincarnate, Meng Po asked me what was wrong, and I said that if I were given another chance, I would say to that girl - knock on the door Ji Ning, did you hear clearly, Gan Linliang, if you didn't hear clearly I'll say it again, I'll kill you!
Ji Ning: Your neighbor is very busy.
Song Yu wanted to rush out of the screen and bring her to justice: Is this the focus now? Huh? Why did Ji Shiyan suddenly accept this program? Has he been lonely for too long and wants to have a relationship? !
How would I know? The first time she saw Ji Shiyan, she thought, "Is my baby obsolete? Why is he participating in this kind of show?"
In the next half hour, Ms. Song Yu showed her envy, jealousy and hatred in all aspects, and finally said: Let's delete each other, the star-chasing winner is not worthy of being my friend.
Okay, before we break up, please pay the down payment for the house I lent you first.
I must be kidding, baby. I like you very much and want to be your good friend for life. I wish you and Ji Shiyan a happy marriage.
Then he sent a picture of Bihart.
I fell asleep while chatting with Song Yu that day. Two days later, the long-awaited Friday arrived as scheduled.
Huang Miao has many artists under him. He will arrive at the airport to meet Ji Ning at 12 o'clock, and then fly to R City at 4 o'clock.
Time was tight, so Ji Ning went to the airport cafe half an hour in advance to wait for Huang Miao. As a result, Huang Miao suddenly lost contact after the plane landed. He didn't reply to messages, and when he called, he just said "hello" and the call was hastily disconnected.
Ji Ning asked everyone around Huang Miao one by one, but strangely no one knew where Huang Miao had gone. In the end, Ji Ning got an address after going around in circles.
When Ji Ning arrived, the time was exactly half past two.
Huang Miao is gone, and the one left in the room is another face - Sun He.
"Looking for Huang Miao?" Sun He raised her eyebrows without surprise. "She went to catch a flight in advance. I think the flight has already taken off."
Ji Ning frowned.
Sun He shrugged: "I'm about to shoot a drama about agents, so I asked her to have dinner with me to get some inspiration."
"Just let her go after eating. After all, there's nothing else to do."
"Nothing else?"
Judging from Sun He's tone, how could this young lady not know what she had done? Huang Miao came back for Ji Ning, so why would she come back to find inspiration for Sun He
The eldest lady clapped her hands and said without pretending, "I know she came here for you, but I asked her to accompany me and she had to accompany me. After I hung up the phone, she didn't call you again, right?"
Seeing that she remained silent, Sun He's intention to provoke her became stronger: "Let me tell you more. I was the one who gave you to Huang Miao, and I followed her. She has so many first-line stars under her, she doesn't have time to take care of small artists. Even if she does, the rest are all mine."
"You can only take what I have left over in terms of resources and management, but I will digest it all." I won't leave any for you.
I didn't expect that Sun He would blame her for everything except the night meeting with a man. In this way, the various obstacles encountered in the previous team change were probably caused by this young lady.
Ji Ning used to guess that it was because she took the blame and was disobedient that she threatened Sun He, so Sun He didn't like her.
But at this moment, she was so frank and cruel to the woman that she realized that Sun He was going to make trouble for her without any hesitation and was not afraid of any difficulties.
Could it be that I had snatched the limited edition bag that Miss Sun wanted at the counter
Sun He spoke again in a condescending manner: "Aren't you curious about why I did this?"
She had really wanted to know, but when asked this question, she suddenly felt that everything was unimportant. She didn't want to, and didn't need to, compromise to please Sun He.
So Ji Ning shook his head: "It's up to you."
How could the young lady accept that someone would not take the step she gave her? She was immediately enraged and stamped her feet fiercely: "Okay, then you wait."
"I won't let you go, nor will I give you good resources. I will watch you slowly turn into an empty shell and linger on. When you have nothing left, don't ask me to give you a chance!"
Hearing this, Ji Ning said slowly: "That may disappoint you."
She thought Sun He probably didn't know about Ji Shiyan, nor did she know that her newly finished drama "Rose and the Wind of That Time" would be broadcast on a first-tier satellite TV station during prime time, and that "There Are Stars Here", adapted from a classic novel, had also extended an olive branch to her.
In the second half of the year, a program about her dating a top movie star will be broadcast, and the topic will surely be soaring to the top of the hot search list. As the program is updated, her popularity will also increase; if she is lucky enough to get the female lead in "Star", Star will also be on the air when the program is almost over - then the attention she will get will only increase, not decrease, so there is no question of losing.
With her keen sense of smell, she will face a wider world, not a narrower choice. In such a period of rapid growth, having a good team is indeed more effective, but she didn't expect Sun He to use his convenient identity to try his best to stop her.
But some things cannot be stopped.
"Disappointed?" Sun He laughed. "Why did you change teams? Don't you think you are important? You want to be famous on your own? I'm afraid you are dreaming."
"Even the dream of dating a top star can come true, so it's okay to rely on your own dreams." Ji Ning smiled slightly, "We'll wait and see."
Sun He stared at Ji Ning's leaving back, stunned for a moment, then made several calls in a row, and finally got the answer to a question. Her eyes widened instantly: "What? She and Ji Shiyan?!"
///
An hour later, the very active Ji Ning was already sitting in Song Yu's house.
Song Yu was surprised while holding the broken ice in her mouth: "Can the manager just sit there and do nothing?"
"You never expected that," Ji Ning shrugged, "But some things are the same, if we do it ourselves... it's not that difficult, right?"
Song Yu blinked in shock again, "Are you sure? What do you want to do?"
"Let me think about it."
It is still under the company's name, so she definitely cannot go out and look for an outsourcing team. She also has no experience in liaising with outsourcing companies, and she is afraid of being cheated.
Huang Miao is on Sun He's side, and since he has many big shots under him, he will definitely not give her anything. But as long as she achieves a certain level of success, the company will take her seriously, even if it means slapping Sun He in the face, because no businessman would refuse a lot of money.
But before that, she must never give up on herself.
So now - find a way to save yourself.
"Without a management team, we can only organize fans to control comments," Ji Ning began to sort out the logic chain, "Clarify the fake information as soon as the marketing account fabricates it, curb the spread of the black material at the source, and gradually improve the goodwill of passers-by, so as not to let the black fans who don't know the truth fly all over the sky."
Nowadays, the fan circle culture is so powerful that controlling comments, ranking and fighting against black bodies are the "three must-haves in the fan circle", and probably everyone is aware of it.
"Then there's the data. My data is basically at the bottom among similar young actresses. It's also because my former team didn't do anything. Other teams will buy water armies for their artists, and fans will also post on Weibo."
Data is the confidence of artists. Many male idols with high traffic have millions of reposts, which is of course the result of frequent reposts from some voting accounts.
The ones who control the comments and post on Weibo are all the fan clubs. Ji Ning's fan club hasn't posted on Weibo for two months. The studio is managed by the company and it only opens once in a long time. Not only can they not write interesting copy, but they also use a lot of terms from the last century, which makes people dream back to 2010.
No wonder many people say that she is unworthy of her position and has zero active fans online. The studio and the fan club are unorganized and undisciplined. Even if there are active fans, they are powerless and may be speechless to the point of chasing stars in a Buddhist way.
Ji Ning wanted to go back to the studio account to connect with the fan club. The person on the other end felt guilty and explained that she was busy with her studies. Ji Ning found out about her secondary account through clues and discovered that she had gone to another idol.
"The president isn't even a fan of Wei, no wonder he's managing things so messily."
Only fans are those who only like one artist. Fans who participate in official support must be only fans of the artist. This way, they can ensure that when something happens, they will consider her and stand on her side.
There were nearly a hundred people in her original fan club group, and I wonder how many are left now.
Just as she was checking, she found her cousin who had just finished the college entrance examination
She had always known that her cousin was her little fan. Whenever she saw her, her eyes would light up and she would talk nonstop about her dramas. She thought that this kind of liking was just a formality, but she didn't expect that her cousin would actually join her fan club.
Ji Ning opened her dialog box and sent a private message: Why are you in there
Cousin: Didn’t I tell you before the college entrance exam that I would come and work for you after I graduate? !
Ji Ning: …You should study hard.
I have a lot of free time in college. I can pursue you, Ji Shiyan and study at the same time. That’s enough.
After thinking for a while, Ji Ning asked her: Who do you think would be better if we had to re-elect a president
The previous one has already climbed over the wall, so we definitely can’t keep it.
Me, me, me!
Let’s be serious.
I was serious. There were people talking in the group before, but now no one is talking. And I am your relative, how nice, I will always be there for you. You can tell me anything, you can use my account, isn't it convenient for a family to do things together
More importantly, I can learn Ji Shiyan’s fan club management and apply it to our side.
Then you are really good to your sister.
Ji Ning's forehead twitched.
There is no better way at the moment, Ji Ning said: Then you do it.
Choosing a cousin also has its advantages. Ji Ning can directly grasp various trends and communication is also convenient.
After making the choice, my cousin was full of confidence: I will give myself a nice name. Do you think Huihui, Ahui, Huimei or Huimian is better
Ji Ning:
The name is just a code name. The key point is what to do now.
Ji Ning, his cousin, and Song Yu formed a group and after discussion they reached a unanimous idea: first, set up a fan club, because this is an era where data is king and where data is there are opportunities; second, set up a studio, which is also part of the artist team and is used to increase fan stickiness; then there is Tieba, which was an early place for star-chasing, but now everyone has moved to Weibo, so it's fine as long as the Tieba isn't too ugly.
She let her cousin handle the reorganization of the fan club. After all, her cousin had experience in supporting Ji Shiyan and working in the fan circle.
Ji Ning said: When you can't make up your mind, you can ask me and I will discuss it with you.
Cousin: Okay, then I’ll go recruit new members.
To rank high, control comments and dispel rumors requires manpower, and manpower is also obtained by recruiting new people.
Recruiting new members is the eternal theme of all fan clubs. Ji Shiyan's fan club recruits new members about once every three months, because the fan circle is always expanding, the business is getting more and more, high-quality talents are always scarce, and old fans who have left must also be cleared out.
And since Ji Ning is starting from scratch, what he needs most are fans who are willing to work hard.
There were more than 90 people in the previous work group, and more than 70 of them participated in voting. But because no one had organized it for a long time, everyone became disengaged after the novelty wore off.
Ji Ning asked his cousin: Remember to clean up the group, and ask everyone privately if they are still willing to stay. If they are willing, move to the new group.
I know! Don’t underestimate me, okay! said my cousin.
The new recruits this time are divided into two groups. One group is the data group, which is responsible for controlling comments and blogging. They have to rely on charts to raise her ranking on major charts, and also have to retweet, comment and like all Weibo posts related to her.
The second group is the copywriting group, which is responsible for Weibo copywriting, announcement statements, birthday congratulatory articles, etc.
For the remaining design videos and art team, Ji Ning decided to find someone to complete them himself.
In addition to the number of people, the output of a star is equally important. She is an absolute face control, and things about herself must be... good-looking enough.
For her own face-saving project, she went to Bilibili and looked for the Scissorhands ladies she once treasured. While reviewing their amazing editing, she selected three and invited them to collaborate.
Good-looking or imaginative video clips can directly help artists become popular, and are one of the low-investment and high-return promotional methods.
In addition to the scissor hand, Ji Ning went to lofter to find the great artists he had followed before, and planned to find five to do long-term drawings for him. Things related to his own image must not be vague, and the facial features cannot be weird, so finding a mature artist is the best choice.
Sometimes when promoting a drama, showing her own avatar, or running a studio, she inevitably needs some q-version pictures and cartoons, and her mood will improve when she sees beautiful pictures of herself.
She found one who was good at thick painting in anime style, one who was good at drawing backgrounds and desktop wallpapers, two who were good at Q-version, and one who was good at ink painting style.
I found two designers I liked and asked them to do some basic design.
In this way, her reputation was maintained.
After she sent out the information about the commissioned work, her cousin also finished recruiting new people.
Of course, working for her also has its benefits. From time to time, various gifts, tickets and autographed photos are dropped in the work group. In order to expand her influence, she organized an event, where three people who forwarded the message were randomly selected and given 10,000 yuan in cash.
My cousin also opened an anti-black site called Ji Ning_Little Ear White Moonlight Team, and recruited five fans to manage it. They search for Weibo posts that slander and insult her every day and organize everyone to report them to prevent the spread of garbage and black material.
The anti-black station also has an event, where if you forward a message, you will win 100 lipsticks, three big-brand bags, or milk tea for a year. This lucky draw is really generous, and the number of forwardings immediately increased, and the number of fans gradually increased. With fans, people will help her. She randomly posted two anti-black messages, and people helped report her and even checked in.
I'm just a passerby, but I think some of the words I said to Ji Ning were too harsh. Come on, Little Moonlight Squad, protect the people you want to protect!
That's amazing. I dare to ask if Pixia has a mine at home to dare to draw a lottery like this. Are all the fans of the fairy fairies [sour]
Looking at the number of fans she managed and slowly growing, she suddenly felt that she was worthy of being loved and treated with kindness, and her eyes suddenly became warm.
There were still more than 20 people left in the original group. After a night of recruiting new members, the number of people in the group was 127, and the voting group accounted for more than half. She thought that as long as everyone worked together, this group would definitely grow and become larger one day, with more groups operating systematically like Ji Shiyan's group of 1,000 people.
These fans really like her selflessly, and she will definitely give them confidence with her achievements.
It was already three in the morning when she left that day. Song Yu, who was yawning all the time, was also moved by her: "It's so tragic, so hard-working, so inspiring. It's really unforgivable that you are not popular."
///
A few days later, the first date scene of "First Kiss Diary" finally started filming.
Ji Ning arrived early that day, and while he was putting on makeup, he heard the makeup artist talking about the other two couples on the show, saying that they had a very good chat in private and the sparks of romance were almost coming out.
Ji Ning sighed with envy: "Some couples have already chatted about their relationship, but some people haven't even added each other on WeChat."
Suddenly, a man's deep, low voice came from behind: "You still know."
Ji Ning was startled and suddenly turned to look at Ji Shiyan who appeared out of nowhere. She even forgot that she was still putting on makeup. The makeup artist followed her movements and drew a long eyebrow tail line.
Her makeup artist was shocked and started using cotton swabs and concealer to reapply concealer on her face.
She just looked at Ji Shiyan, and after a while she said, "Hello, senior."
Ji Shiyan paused for a moment, then opened his phone and scanned it in front of her eyes, indicating that she should add WeChat.
Only then did she take some time to think about what the first message on her WeChat was.
oh--
No, I can't die. I haven't slept with Ji Shiyan yet.
