Chapter 50 A Great Start, Exciting
Chapter 50 A Great Start, Exciting
After meeting Chen Wu, Chen Jingyuan's life didn't experience much of a ripple.
The two only had one thing in common: they exchanged contact information and got a club membership card.
Next, I'll continue working on "Goodbye My Princess"!
As April approached, the cast and crew of "Goodbye My Princess" officially began casting.
At this time, "Hello, Old Times" was preparing to be launched online.
It turns out that Liu Chang, the director of "Hello, Old Times", started editing after filming wrapped.
Even during the Chinese New Year, it wasn't delayed!
The promotion for "Hello, Old Times" began as early as two weeks ago.
"The boy at that time stood at the end of his growth, looking back, and the rugged road he had traveled had already blossomed with flowers."
This classic quote from "Hello, Old Times" is a key element of Tencent Video's promotional materials.
You can see the pop-up "GG" as soon as you open Penguin Video, not to mention the massive publicity stunts from the Penguin Group.

Related content quickly climbed to the top of Weibo's trending topics list.
It has the previous hit "With You", a top-tier domestic youth campus web series.
The promotion of "Hello, Old Times" immediately brought back memories for many netizens.
"The previous drama, 'The Best of Us,' was really good. I support the new drama."
"The second part of the Formation Trilogy is sure to be excellent."
"Both lead actors look great, and the second female lead looks kind of familiar."
...
The topic trended on social media, sparking heated discussions and garnering over 100,000 likes in a short period.

As the broadcast date approached, Zhang Xincheng remained very nervous, watching the promotional videos on Tencent Video every day.
"Old Zhang, you're on your way to becoming a huge star."
"Many people have already asked who you are."
Looking at the overwhelming advertisements, Zhou Mohan said excitedly.
"You bet right!"
Zhang Xincheng, equally excited, said that his Weibo followers have exceeded 100,000.
This was before it even aired, so you can imagine how popular it was.
Suddenly, Zhang Xincheng recalled Director Chen's words from before.
Could he really become famous overnight with just one drama?!
Upon considering this possibility, Zhang Xincheng couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
It seemed that he had thought of something that might actually be true, and he suddenly became even more unsettled.
Zhang Xincheng knows that sometimes whether or not someone becomes famous really depends on luck.
It's not uncommon for some actors to play leading roles in numerous films and television series, yet remain relatively unknown.
Even before the show has premiered, the mere promotion by Tencent is enough to make it somewhat famous.
That's what makes this platform so powerful!
Time flew by, and it was soon time for the night before the official launch.
Chen Jingyuan and his assistant Qiao Yujie sat at their workstations in the Pengcheng Penguin Building, waiting for the results.
"Director, it seems we don't need to come back?"
Qiao Yujie asked with a somewhat puzzled expression.
They've been back for several days now, and it seems like there's no need for them to just wait for broadcast data.
"Xiao Qiao, how can you show your commitment to the project if you don't come back?"
Chen Jingyuan looked at Qiao Yujie with a meaningful look in his eyes and said.
Tencent Video today is not like it was 13, when its self-produced dramas were just starting out.
Instead, they invested in many scripts, not just Chen Jingyuan's studio.
There is still competition for some promotional resources.
If even he himself doesn't value the project, then the publicity department probably won't either.
A few days' return will ensure that the publicity department does not slack off.
That alone makes it worthwhile!
Although Chen Jingyuan was certain that the "Hello, Old Times" project would be a success.
However, publicity can also be the icing on the cake.
Qiao Yujie scratched his head, seemingly understanding a little.
As time went by, the results were released an hour later.
"Over seven million views!"
"We succeeded again."
"Tianhe Studio's first project of the year has been a success, a great start."
...
Qiao Yujie's face lit up with excitement.
Although this project started last year, the results are counted in the new year.
Putting aside the possibility of promotion, the bonuses alone are very generous.
He quickly posted the broadcast results of "Hello, Old Times" in the studio's chat group.
[Another project has been a success! Congratulations!!]
I envy Sister Wang, Brother Liu, and others; they're counting their bonuses until their hands are sore.
I hope the projects we're currently managing will also be successful.
...
Soon, people from various studios in the chat group all spoke up.
The new members who joined Tianhe Studio have nothing to do with this project.
But we also hope for success!
When the year-end bonuses are distributed, Tianhe Studio will also benefit from the success of their project.
Qiao Yujie didn't forget to send a copy to the various chat groups specifically for the film crews.
Let the director and actors know the results!
The actors who saw the news were undoubtedly the most excited.
Inside his dormitory at the Central Academy of Drama, Zhang Xincheng was extremely excited.
Because he genuinely realized that he might actually become famous.
"Brother Cheng!"
"Brother Cheng!"
...
Some of her roommates and classmates from neighboring dormitories came over to offer their blessings, their eyes filled with envy.
Many people previously thought Zhang Xincheng was incredibly daring.
She started taking on acting roles as soon as she was a freshman in college, and without the school's permission.
This is clearly a provocation against the school's rules and regulations.
As for becoming famous overnight, that's not an easy thing.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Xincheng seems to be on the verge of becoming famous thanks to this web series.
Many students were quite agitated.
Zhang Xincheng has truly experienced what it's like to be surrounded by good people after becoming famous.
Fortunately, after calming down, Zhang Xincheng did not forget to send a message to thank Director Chen and the director, among others.
Coincidentally!
Mao Xiaotong also experienced the feeling of becoming famous, so she was inevitably very excited.
She has been in the industry for many years, and has always played supporting roles.
It's truly remarkable that we've finally been able to have a representative work.
"Thank you, Director Chen! Thank you, Director!"
Mao Xiaotong's gratitude towards Chen Jingyuan and others is beyond doubt.
at the same time!
Chen Jingyuan is reading messages sent by many actors.
Zhang Xincheng, Mao Xiaotong, Zhang Yunlong, and others all sent their thanks.
However, his gaze remained fixed on the message sent by Meng Ziyi.
【Brother Jingyuan, it seems I'm trending again!?】
That wretched Rongxin only found a supporting character.
The message from the silly beauty was quite straightforward, which made Chen Jingyuan feel it was real.
He didn't contact Meng Ziyi much during this period.
Meng Ziyi spends most of her time honing her acting skills, and she even complains to him about it before bed whenever she has time.
Unlike youth campus dramas featuring actors in real life, "God of War Zhao Yun" is a period drama.
Meng Ziyi still needs to practice constantly, even though her role is small, it's still quite troublesome.
This is probably a characteristic of period dramas; everything from actions to etiquette needs to be meticulously executed.
