Chapter 1376 1478. Rave reviews
"You said Sister Xixi came to our house this afternoon? Brother, why didn't you invite her to stay for dinner?" During dinner, Nie Wei and Zhou Duoduo mentioned that Lin Yifei was coming to visit in the afternoon. Zhou Duoduo complained loudly when she heard it.
Because she had a good relationship with Lin Yifei at the beginning, and she also wanted to meet this sister who was once very close to her.
"I said it, but she has serious things to do." Nie Wei explained.
"It must be that you are not sincere enough." Zhou Duoduo speculated: "You must have heard that Sister Xixi wanted to work, so you didn't try to keep her at all?"
Seeing Nie Wei speechless, Zhou Duoduo knew that she guessed right, and now she was even more excited.
"I knew it was like this. Don't you think about whether Sister Xixi is just being polite or just looking for an excuse to stay for dinner? If you try to persuade her to stay, she might stay. But you are just sending her away. Even if she wanted to stay, you are done for."
"No, Zhou Duoduo, who did you learn this Northeastern dialect from?" Nie Wei suddenly asked.
"Did I speak Northeastern dialect?" Zhou Duoduo was startled, then realized that she did speak it, and explained with embarrassment and annoyance: "There is a girl from Northeast China in the dormitory, and we have all been led astray recently."
After Zhou Duoduo said this, Nie Wei became curious.
"Why? I remember your dormitory is full." Nie Wei was surprised, but soon thought of the reason and asked: "Who was screened? Han Xiaojiao or Li Xiaohe?"
"Why not Xiang Yixing?" Zhou Duoduo did not answer immediately, but asked curiously.
She didn't think Nie Wei could remember Han Xiaojiao and Li Xiaohe's names, but would forget Xiang Yixing's. After all, compared to the other two, Xiang Yixing had been brought by Nie Wei to see her several times, so she should have a deeper impression.
"Isn't she your little follower? With your personality, if she was really identified, you would have asked me for help a long time ago. I guess it's Li Xiaohe?" Nie Wei explained with a smile, and then guessed.
"How do you know!"
"Why not Han Xiaojiao? Everyone in the class hates her temper."
"Han Xiaojiao has a bad temper, but she is talented in acting. Sometimes a bad temper can be regarded as a personality. Even if it is not likable, it is at least a feature."
"Li Xiaohe is different. Although she looks cute, she is very common in the entertainment industry. She is neither tall nor short, and her acting skills are also ordinary. In short, she does not make people feel bright. It is not surprising that the school selected her. It will be difficult for her to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry in the future. It is better for her to drop out of school early and do something else."
After listening to Nie Wei's words, Zhou Duoduo sighed and said, "The old class teacher also said the same thing to me."
"I wonder if all of you adults are so cold and heartless." Zhou Duoduo complained.
Nie Wei sneered: "Zhou Duoduo, I don't like to hear your words. Don't forget that you are almost 27 or 28 years old, and you still think you are a little princess?"
Nie Wei's words completely irritated Zhou Duoduo. Zhou Duoduo pulled Nie Wei and looked like she wanted to die with him. Nie Wei also felt that his words were "excessive". Although what he said was true, it was obvious that Zhou Duoduo needed some white lies more.
After a while, Zhou Duoduo soon calmed down again. Obviously, her classmates were screened, and they were classmates in the same dormitory. This was also a worry for Zhou Duoduo.
Looking at Zhou Duoduo who looked melancholy, Nie Wei felt that he really protected this girl too well.
Zhou Duoduo now does not look like she has ten years of experience in society. She seems to be like those children on campus, and she thinks many things very naively.
Nie Wei certainly does not regret protecting Zhou Duoduo like this, but feels very accomplished.
Being able to let a person live innocently until old age, this is definitely a good brother who can save the universe, right? Nie Wei thought complacently.
Nie Wei was proud, but Zhou Duoduo was suffering from the torment of conscience.
"Brother, actually when Li Xiaohe was screened, she asked me for help. I just pleaded with the teacher, but the teacher didn't agree. Her parents also asked me to ask you for help, but I didn't tell you because I was afraid of bothering you. Do you think I am too selfish to do this?"
Nie Wei listened and laughed.
"What's selfish about this? As a roommate, you have done your best. You helped her talk with the teacher. Although the boss didn't agree, you did it. This is friendship."
"You have done what you can. Don't have a psychological burden."
"But if I told you at that time, would you help me?"
"No, because it was the school's decision, and I have no right to intervene." Facing Zhou Duoduo's question, Nie Wei answered directly.
Hearing this, Zhou Duoduo felt a little relieved.
Because Nie Wei had already answered, even if he made a request, Nie Wei had no way to help Li Xiaohe, which meant that the result was predetermined.
Of course, Nie Wei said this completely in line with Zhou Duoduo's thoughts. If Nie Wei didn't have this little face to decide whether a selected student stayed or left, then the money sponsored every year would really be We-go.
"Don't think too much. The school selects a student after careful consideration. Otherwise, they wouldn't let you study for half a year before notifying you, because this period of time is to judge whether you are suitable for this industry. Including Huaxi Opera and Mingzhu Drama Academy, don't they also have selected students?"
"And I tell you, more than 90% of the students who were screened out have indeed disappeared. You have to believe in the decades of experience of the professors in the school. They must know better than you whether you have the talent to continue in this line of work."
"So instead of regretting that your classmate was screened out, it is better to wish her to find a better life goal."
"Okay, brother, I'm not as fragile as you think, so don't give me chicken soup." Zhou Duoduo felt psychologically comforted, and she was no longer melancholy. She gradually became naughty in her words, which made Nie Wei feel itchy and wanted to beat him up.
Seeing that Zhou Duoduo had just lost a roommate, Nie Wei did not do it.
"By the way, brother, I was praised." Zhou Duoduo suddenly smiled complacently, and that complacent smile was exactly the same as Nie Wei's.
"How is it praised? Let me hear it." Nie Wei pretended to listen attentively.
"It has something to do with you, too. My performance in "Signal" was used as an example by the teacher, who praised me for a whole class." Zhou Duoduo couldn't hide her pride and excitement when she mentioned this.
Just like a child who got a little red flower in kindergarten, even Nie Wei could clearly feel the excitement.
"I saw many netizens praising your acting skills online, saying that you have torn off the label of traffic and become an acting school." Nie Wei added with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhou Duoduo's face suddenly showed surprise.
"Brother, you also watched the hot search?"
"How could I miss my sister's hot search? I not only watched it, but also watched it very seriously." Nie Wei's "performance" made Zhou Duoduo smile.
During the month when "Signal" was popular, a group of actors became popular.
The ratings have been overwhelming since the first episode, making the opponents in the same period deeply feel what despair is.
The first episode received a high rating of 10.2, and the average rating was 6.78. The result almost made a leader of Mingzhu TV faint with excitement.
This result is comparable to the ratings of the main channel of a major evening show.
Happiness came too suddenly. After the first broadcast, Mingzhu TV felt like it was celebrating the Spring Festival.
As for the audience, while giving high scores to the TV series, they also kept complaining because it was too much for them to broadcast four episodes a week.
"Which bastard came up with the two-episode-a-week system? I wish he would eat instant noodles without seasoning packets."
"The TV series is so good, it's just like watching a movie, with a suspenseful and exciting plot. After watching one episode, I found that I had goose bumps all over my body."
"It feels like watching a movie, with suspense one after another, which makes my brain unable to stop at all. I feel that if I relax a little, I may miss something."
"I strongly request two episodes a day. With such a suspenseful plot, if you ask me to wait until next week to know the answer, I am afraid I will not be in the mood to work at all."
It is absolutely correct to describe "Signal" with the four words "overwhelming praise".
From the first episode, good reviews have continued to emerge. After one month of broadcasting, the number of hits on the Internet for this TV series has directly exceeded 10 billion.
The media praised that Nie Wei presented a TV series to everyone in the way of a movie.
"Phenomenon" and "masterpiece" and other labels have all been attached to this TV series, making "Signal" unparalleled on the small screen.
This TV series has become a weapon for some of Nie Wei's fans to fight back against those who say that Nie Wei has run out of ideas.
Nie Wei can only say thank you. I made a movie with a box office of 4 billion yuan. Some people say that I have run out of ideas. My fans even use TV series to make up for it. Nie Wei doesn't know what to say.
After dinner, Zhou Duoduo went back to her little room to study. This time, returning to school seemed to have stimulated her inner academic gene. She has decided to follow her brother's old path. Not to mention getting a doctorate in directing from Beijing Film Academy like her brother, she must at least get a master's degree.
Zhou Duoduo is so enterprising, Nie Wei naturally supports her.
So he gave Zhou Duoduo all the review materials he used for the exam, but the girl's eyes felt a little wrong when she saw a large box of materials? Nie Wei thought so after sending the materials.
One day did not make the heat of Nie Wei's box office "failure" pass, but it gradually developed in a bad direction.
When Nie Wei went online the next day, he found that his fans were attacking "Ne Zha".
Of course, Nie Wei is not sure whether the fans here are his fans. After all, there are too many people who have nothing to do these days. They are not human beings just separated by a computer screen. Some even play Infernal Affairs. In the words of Teacher Jin, Xiaoyang has two faces.
But whether they are his fans or not, Nie Wei knows that when they use the title of his fans to make trouble, he will inevitably be implicated.
Fans make trouble, idols pay the bill, this kind of thing is too common in the circle.
Why do many unfavorable artists become unfavorable? Most of them are caused by fans. They always greet other people's parents, praise their idols to the sky, trample other people's idols into mud, and throw a few pots of dirty water. How can such people not be annoying?
However, when the public hates these fans, they will definitely put this unfavorable impression on the stars. The reason is simple. Who let these fans be your fans?
Idol stars cannot be said to be innocent. They can only be described as helpless.
After all, traffic stars rely on fans to support them, so traffic stars have always been inactive in terms of advising and guiding fans, because they are afraid that if they come out to stop it, they will hurt the fans' hearts, and then they will be the ones who will suffer.
Especially since most of the people who quarreled fiercely online are women, you want to reason with them? Don't think that you can reason with them just because you are an idol. If you dare to reason with them, I will stop being a fan in a minute, believe it or not?
Nie Wei didn't expect that he would face such a situation one day.
However, the most essential difference between him and traffic stars is that he does not need to rely on fans to make a living, so he immediately released a message to stop fans from attacking "Ne Zha".
Nie Wei's message is not a clear ban on fans, which will only stimulate fans' rebellious psychology.
So Nie Wei tried to praise "Ne Zha" as much as possible, expressed his appreciation for the movie, and then guided fans to have the same orientation as himself.
As soon as the news came out, Nie Wei's true fans quickly stopped attacking obediently.
But the storm did not stop, because there were still a large number of people who were still blackening "Ne Zha" for the sake of blackening. Looking at the other party's rhythm, Nie Wei guessed that there must be someone behind this.
This made Nie Wei very angry.
He was obviously calculated by someone. Nie Wei didn't know why this person blackened "Ne Zha", but it was impossible for Nie Wei to let it go after being used like this.
At this time, the benefits of holding the power of the social platform were seen. In less than half an hour, Nie Wei had a clear direction and probably caught who was behind it.
Unlike the imagined big boss behind the scenes, this company is just a third-rate production company in the industry. The purpose should be to gain a breathing space for the next movie to be released.
After analyzing this result from the report, Nie Wei was speechless. It was really ignorant and fearless, right?
Thinking of this, Nie Wei picked up the phone and issued an order, asking Fanxing Cinema to directly reduce the opponent's already small screening rate to the bottom. The verbal attack was far less painful than the damage to the interests.
Nie Wei didn't care about that small company and sanctioned it casually, but the headache was that the rhythm on the Internet had already been raised, and the participation of a bunch of spectators made the matter uncontrollable. Nie Wei thought about it and called the secretariat, asking them to practice with the director of "Ne Zha".
