When Xinyue heard this, she knew that this interview would make the fans of the show go crazy for a while more.
Zhang Zhewen’s acting skills were not good, but he was very good at controlling the hearts of his fans.
Now that the show was over, the fans were feeling very empty. They urgently needed similar works to divert their attention. If they did not have similar works at the moment, their emotions would s.h.i.+ft to the actors.
Whichever actor linked themselves to the role, that actor would be the first to obtain their empathy.
However, there were pros and cons to everything. It was impossible for an actor to only act in one role in their life. If they clung to one role and did not let go, they could only obtain the pa.s.sion of the show’s fans for a short period of time.
In the long term, it was unfavorable to the development of their career.
Xinyue glanced at Qiao Weiyang, who was shaking her head, indicating that she did not understand Zhang Zhewen’s actions. “he’s too short-sighted. He only cares about his immediate interests. I’m afraid in the future…”
Qiao Weiyang didn’t finish the rest of her sentence, but she did understand why Zhang Zhewen, who had been acting for more than ten years, was still unknown even after everyone else around him had become famous.
After Zhang Zhewen finished his interview with the reporters, the producer and casting director immediately walked toward him. “Zhewen!”
“Producer Niu, Director Gao!” Zhang Zhewen greeted the two of them enthusiastically.
Producer Niu and Director Gao both liked Zhang Zhewen very much. Back then, when they were preparing for Tianhe Home, the two of them did not ask Zhang Zhewen to audition and directly chose him.
This time, Tianhe Home became popular and Zhang Zhewen’s popularity soared. Producer Niu and Director Gao liked Zhang Zhewen even more.
“Zhewen, we’re honored that you took the time to come to our auction when you’re so busy.” Director Gao patted his shoulder with a sense of satisfaction. “Unlike some people who forget their roots just because they’ve gotten a little popular, hehe.”
Everyone knew who he was referring to.
Luo Lin was someone the main director and another co-producer were determined to choose. His partic.i.p.ation was not decided by Producer Niu and Director Gao. The two of them did not like Luo Lin very much, so they were naturally willing to see Zhang Zhewen become better in the future.
Not to mention that Zhang Zhewen had a work that was filmed but not yet broadcasted in Director Gao’s hands, so the two of them had deep ties of interests.
Director Gao had also accepted some of Zheng Mengwei’s casting and filming resources under Zhang Zhewen’s lead. He was now completely on the same side as Zhang Zhewen.
“Zhewen, can I still invite you for projects in the future?” Producer Niu asked with a smile.
“Of course, Sister Niu. As long as you ask, I’ll definitely come over immediately!”
Producer Niu smiled happily. “I knew you were a loyal person. You’re famous now, and I have something to tell you.”
“Sister Niu, just tell me.”
“If you become famous, some people will definitely come to take advantage of your popularity. I think you have to be careful. You can’t share your popularity with others for no reason. Some people aren’t worth it.”
Zhang Zhewen immediately understood. Everyone was on guard against Luo Lin.
Producer Niu and Director Gao looked at each other. Back then, they had thought of roping in Luo Lin, but Luo Lin was a very principled person. On the surface, he smiled at everyone and was considerate and polite, but when it came to actual cooperation, he was very principled.
He refused to give in and lower his head for benefits.
Producer Niu and Director Gao had tested him twice and knew his temper. That was why when Zhang Zhewen made the request later, they immediately edited out the scenes of Baili Tang in the later episodes of Tianhe Home.
Facing Producer Niu’s reminder, Zhang Zhewen immediately understood.
“Sister Niu, I know what to do.”
“It’s good that you understand this,” Producer Niu said with a smile.
Director Gao hooked his arm around Zhang Zhewen’s shoulder and walked to the side. “Didn’t we film our new movie long ago? We’ll have to rely on you for the publicity. You have to stand up for me.”
“Of course, Director Gao!” Zhang Zhewen immediately replied.
“Police Affairs is a masterpiece of our cooperation, and it’s also the first work you’ll release after becoming famous. Everything is on you.” This was also why Director Gao valued Zhang Zhewen so much.
After chatting for a while, Director Gao and Producer Niu went elsewhere to socialize. Zhang Zhewen sat down in a corner.
Xiao Yu walked over and said, “Zhewen, there’s a drink brand that wants you and Luo Lin to be their endorsers.”
“They want both of us?”
“Yes. Maybe they took a fancy to both of your popularity,” Xiao Yu said. “That’s why I’m asking you first.’
Zhang Zhewen said, “Did Luo Lin agree?”
“I asked around and heard that he agreed.”
“If he agreed, how good could this project be?”
“I thought so too. Could it be that he finally knows that his popularity can’t catch up to yours, so he wants to tie himself to you?” Xiao Yu immediately felt that he must have guessed Luo Lin’s thoughts.
Previously, when the show was just broadcasted, Luo Lin had always been outstanding. Baili Tang was everywhere.
Later on, Xiao Yu, Han Tian, and the others turned the tide. Finally, the current situation allowed Zhang Zhewen to draw with Luo Lin in terms of data and comments.
No, it wasn’t just a draw now. Zhang Zhewen was even showing signs of suppressing Luo Lin.
Zhang Zhewen said, “I reject the offer. I won’t work with him again no matter what.”
“Okay, I’ll make the call now.”
Xiao Yu immediately refused the invitation.
Brother Liang quickly received feedback. “Luo Lin, Zhang Zhewen rejected.” Luo Lin heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s great.”
“That’s right. I didn’t expect him to refuse. Speaking of which, when this drink brand suggested inviting the two of you together, I had many concerns. If the two male leads appeared in an endors.e.m.e.nt together, it’d definitely cause a lot of discussion among fans. It’s really great that this happened now.”
“Yes, I don’t have to reluctantly accept the offer just to return the favor.”
This drink brand had allowed Luo Lin to promote the brand for a short period of time back then. The fees weren’t here, and there wasn’t much to promote.
But at that time, it was already a rare opportunity for Luo Lin to make money.
This time, due to recent trends, Luo Lin and Zhang Zhewen were invited to endorse their brand together. Luo Lin agreed immediately. He was not completely against continuing to work with Zhang Zhewen.
Since Zhang Zhewen had already refused, he did not need to feel burdened.
After Brother Liang finished the call, he said, “They said that since Zhang Zhewen rejected the invitation, we’ll sign the contract first. I’ve already agreed.
You’ll be the only one endorsing now.”
“No problem.” Luo Lin was in a relaxed mood, and his tone was light.
The event location was bustling with activity..
