Who are you calling powerful?.

Chapter 713: Is this two years old? God has given me a gift
Zhao Liying enthusiastically asked Wei Yang to take a photo with the young actor named Zhou Teng.

Later, Wei Yang found out that this child was chosen by Zhao Liying herself, and he was waiting to watch the fun during the casting.

Wei Yang was not disappointed. Not only did he take a photo, he also posted it on Weibo with a caption.

【Guess who this is? 】

Even today, although Boss Wei is no longer active on Weibo, due to his various identity halos, he is still the account with the largest number of fans and active fans on Weibo.

Even because of his block, many stars who could have overtaken others by many means did not dare to do so.

Wei Yang may not care about this reputation, but his fans do, and the key is that he cannot suppress the doubts from the outside world.

Not to mention his many identities like richest man, chairman of the Film Association, etc., let’s just compare his popularity and fame. Who in the entire entertainment industry dares to say that he is more popular than Wei Yang?
You are not as popular as him, and with all kinds of bonus exposure, why do you have more Weibo fans than him?

Unless he himself admits to falsifying the data, isn't he asking for cyberbullying?

So no matter how the situation changes, Wei Yang is still the most influential star on Weibo and even the Internet.

I dare not say that every Weibo post will become a hot search, but the probability is very high. Many top fans may not get the same treatment as him even if they work hard to collect data.

This Weibo post was a gimmick in itself, so it naturally quickly attracted discussions among netizens and fans, and the traffic was full.

It became a hot search in less than half an hour and quickly reached the top of the hot search list.

Of course, the reason why it is so popular is that the hot search terms on Weibo are powerful enough and it is a real clickbait title.

【＃Wei Yang's "own son"＃】

When I clicked on it, I saw that it was a photo of Wei Yang and a child actor who looked similar to him. The two looked similar and standing together looked like real father and son.

That is Boss Wei, who didn’t dare to make a big fuss on Weibo, so he added quotation marks “”, otherwise it would have simply been [#魏阳亲少妇＃].

Even though many people knew it might be a clickbait title as soon as they saw the quotation marks, one can imagine how tempting these two words were when combined with last year's gossip. There were still a large number of netizens who resolutely clicked in to add heat to this Weibo post.

After finding out they had been "cheated", no one was disappointed. Instead, a large group of people gathered in the comment section to make memes.

[Master, is this the eldest master? Oh, he looks exactly like the husband in my dream]

[Sister, you are already 28, please let the child go. Well, I have a younger sister who just started junior high school. She is of the right age.]

[I have said it many times, don’t be too particular about gender at this time]

[I don't dream of marrying into a wealthy family. Young Master, I'll just have to give me some food to eat. I can be an assistant nanny or something. 5 a month will be enough.]

[They really look alike. Tell me, was this a mistake you made when you were young?]

[Isn’t Fan…’s child only one or two years old? He is growing up too fast.]

[This is two years old! ? ! ]

[Hahaha, apply for World Heritage status]

【…】

Some people make fun of it, while others really study the child's situation and then make various analyses and predictions.

[To be honest, if this child doesn't grow up crooked, there will be a star in Wei Yang's autobiographical movie in the future]

[This is truly a gift from God. With this face, wealth and honor are inevitable.]

[Stop bragging, forget about little Jack Ma, that kid is almost ruined]

[It's different. That's because the kid's situation is special. Jack Ma is a pure businessman. There's no point in imitating him. You can only watch it for fun, and then you'll get tired of it.]

[That's right, the fact that this kid can act in movies shows that he has some talent. He should go to an art school and study hard. If he doesn't imitate others, he can be a stand-in.]

[The idea above is good. Boss Wei can't keep filming, or he may film less and less in the future. Even if it's just a meal replacement, it's enough for this kid to gain a foothold in this circle.]

[If he can shoot three-pointers like him, he can make buzzer-beaters. If Boss Wei retires in the future, this kid will become extremely popular.]

[Wan Wan Lei Qing, the eternal god of substitute, why don’t I have this face?]

[If you can’t be an actor, you can be an internet celebrity and make a lot of money by doing a live broadcast]

[That’s enough, Boss Wei sounds like he’s dead]

【…】

Wei Yang was also browsing the messages from netizens on Weibo. After seeing these comments, he became a little thoughtful.

I was just amazed at it just now and didn’t realize it yet, but now I see that this child is indeed “gifted”.

There are quite a few examples of this kind of situation in the circle, and in the early years it was mainly newcomers who tried to gain popularity.

Wei Yang has been in the industry for so many years and has met countless "Little Da Mimi", "Little Liu Tianxian" and "Little Fan Xiaopang". Few of them have made it big, but all of them have gotten some benefits.

Later, because artists with bad records were banned, the so-called "meal substitute artists" appeared.

Some of them look alike, some have similar styles, in short, they all want to share the benefits of the fall of the top stars. Among them, several artists who later became famous have more or less taken advantage of this.

This is still the entertainment industry. Internet celebrities are more direct. If they look like someone like him, it means they have received a fortune from heaven. They can just start a live broadcast to beg for food.

There are a lot of people like Shuangzi's substitute, low-profile Deng, and Pinxixi's version of Tantan. Some fans really take them as psychological comfort.

Netizens also love to watch the fun, and Wei Yang was most impressed by the crew of "Kuangchuan".

A group of low-profile pirated versions of Gao Qiqiang and An Xin started live broadcasts online. They can't do anything but lip-sync lines, but the number of viewers and live broadcast revenue every day are also considerable.

There are just too many Chinese people, and many of them are bored. Seize the opportunity and catch this wave of traffic.

I can’t say I’ll become rich, but I can make a little money in the short term, which is at least much better than working part-time…

So what those netizens said is right, this kid has this face, it's a gift from God, he has a good hand, if he works hard and plays well, he can really create a situation that countless ordinary people dream of but cannot achieve.

Boss Wei usually says very little about how to educate other people's children, let alone strangers'.

But perhaps it was that destined face, or perhaps it was the words of netizens that made him feel emotional, he even specifically said a few words to the mother who came with her child to the crew.

"No matter what, you must let the child insist on going to school. This will become his lifelong wealth and also his way out." The child's mother obviously didn't understand what was going on and was confused, but facing the advice and suggestions from a figure of Boss Wei's level, she still nodded excitedly and immediately took the child to do his winter vacation homework.

"..."

The originally happy child was dragged away by his mother, and his eyes were full of resentment when he looked at Boss Wei.

Boss Wei took a breath and looked at his child who was struggling to do his homework. How could he describe this feeling? He felt guilty, but also a little happy...

...

Although he did not officially join the crew, Wei Yang still cooperated with the promotion of "Knowing Your Destiny" and was interviewed by PPTV's entertainment information program together with Zhao Liying.

The interview room was converted from a conference room. Behind it is a platform and a program logo display board, and then a sofa. The overall layout is fresh and warm.

There was no host, or rather, there was only one PD asking questions, and Wei Yang and Zhao Liying recorded directly in front of the camera.

This is also an interview model that has become popular in recent years!
Without the host, the third person, it is more like the audience and guests are face to face, and the pace is faster. Only the key questions and answers make the interview session more fragmented, which can be combined with short video promotion.

Wei Yang personally prefers this style. Normal interviews are also good, but they rely more on the host's skills.

Some hosts' skills are really not up to par, and they have a poor grasp of dialogue interaction and interview rhythm. Instead of this, it would be better to have a direct Q&A session and leave the main stage to the guests and topics.

Because of the presence of Boss Wei, the production crew was very cautious and went over various questions eight times, for fear of offending the boss and losing their jobs.

If Wei Yang hadn't taken the initiative to say that some rules could be relaxed, this show would have been very official and even boring.

[We all know that you are an expert in online novel adaptations. I would like to ask what kind of online novels you like to read. Do you have any recommendations for works or authors? Do you like novels about family intrigues like "Do You Know?"? ]

Wei Yang thought for a moment and said, "I read a lot of different online novels. At the moment, I mostly read urban, historical, sports and football novels. I also read fantasy, martial arts and women's novels, but not very often."

"I don't have any particular preference for authors. I only look at whether the book suits my taste. Recently, I've been following "Overthrow of the Han Dynasty", "Lord of Mysteries", and "The Great Doctor Ling Ran". There is also a completed book "The Source of Wealth Rolling in" that I've been reading. The plots in it are very interesting..."

The PD didn't dare to ask more questions, but Zhao Liying was quite curious and asked what the movie "Money Rolling In" was about.

Wei Yang smiled: "It's a city rebirth story, mainly about entrepreneurship and business battles, and I also have a role in it."

"Really? I'll go check it out later."

Zhao Liying knew Wei Yang very well. As soon as she saw his expression, she knew that there was definitely something fishy about this book. She was actually a little curious.

Boss Wei smiled but said nothing. In fact, there was nothing fishy about it. It was indeed a normal commercial online article.

It’s just that in this online article, the protagonist is both Jack Ma of Alibaba and Pony Ma of Penguin, which makes the story very lively.

As for Boss Wei, perhaps because he was popular among the public, he did not get the role of a villain. Instead, he became the protagonist's ally or "little brother", helping the protagonist to kill all enemies and sharing a lot of the benefits of the penguin.

This is also a butterfly effect after Wei Yang's rebirth!
Perhaps because of his fame, he has a particularly strong presence in urban online novels. He has been playing supporting roles in major online novels for many years, sometimes giving rewards to the protagonist through live broadcasts, sometimes being the protagonist's younger brother, and sometimes being a tool for showing off. He is basically a combination of the two Ma + Boss Lei + Young Master Wang in his previous life.

In addition to Huayuwen, he has many positive roles in Huayuwen, and also played villains, causing Blue Whale to suffer every day...

Having your name appear in an online article and having a new life trajectory is a very strange feeling for the person involved.

At least Wei Yang thinks it's quite interesting, and he will give some rewards to those that are well written or to his liking.

[Why did you choose to star in a drama like "Do You Know?" which is more inclined to a female perspective? 】

Wei Yang looked at Zhao Liying, who couldn't help but smile, and kicked the ball to her.

"You can ask Producer Zhao."

Zhao Liying tried to hold back her smile, but she still laughed heartily: "I actually tricked him into getting this role. Well, I can't say it was a trick..."

Wei Yang added: "Fool."

Zhao Liying retorted: "You can't say it's a scam. You agreed to it yourself. You trapped yourself."

Looking at the bewildered staff, Wei Yang took the initiative to explain: "Liying and I had agreed to film a drama together before. At that time, we were thinking of other dramas, but later gave up for various reasons. When Liying brought "Knowing or Not", I had already been put on the shelf, so I had no choice but to agree."

Perhaps thinking that saying this would easily create misunderstandings and might also affect the viewing experience of “Knowing Your Destiny”, Wei Yang continued to make amends.

"Later, I read the script and found it very detailed and well prepared. I was actually tempted, but I felt like I was being tricked and I was a little unwilling to accept it."

Zhao Liying next to her was smiling brightly. She was quite proud of being able to bring Wei Yang into "The Story of Minglan" this time.

They continued to discuss several issues regarding the drama "Knowing Your Destiny" before the topic returned to the two of them.

[In the past two years, your film and television works have obviously begun to decrease, and your behind-the-scenes work has increased. Many viewers who like you have expressed their concerns. Will you consider retiring in the future? ]

Wei Yang shook his head clearly: "I have no intention of retiring from the film industry for the time being, but due to work and other reasons, it is inevitable that my output will decrease. But on the other hand, this will also give me time to work harder on my works."

Zhao Liying hesitated for a moment and said: "I am not considering retiring at this stage, but I have said before that the focus of my career will gradually shift to behind the scenes."

"It depends on the script. If there is one I particularly like, I will still be eager to act in it. But if there is nothing suitable or I am busy with work, I may have to put filming on hold."

Zhao Liying actually hides the key element of "child".

She can still balance the backstage and filming, but with family and children, it's a bit overwhelming.
The preparation for "Knowing Your Destiny", which involved both behind-the-scenes work and filming, has indeed left her with less and less energy to focus on her children. She had always thought that she could handle it, but now it seems that her thinking was too one-sided.

Artist Career VS Blue Whale Work VS Children
It was easy for Zhao Liying to make a decision. Originally, she was confirmed to star in "Knowing Your Destiny", and many scripts and projects wanted to find her, but now they have all been turned down by Zhao Liying.

After finishing "Knowing Your Destiny", she considered whether to stop filming temporarily, at least until her child goes to kindergarten, or even longer before resuming.

Of course, this is just a temporary idea. Zhao Liying has not made up her mind yet, and Wei Yang has only vaguely sensed it.

So sometimes, it’s no wonder that some fans strongly oppose female stars falling in love and having children, because there are too many variables once the child is born.

For example, female stars such as Gao Yuanyuan and Dong Xuan have faded out of the entertainment industry to varying degrees after getting married and having children. Some of them may make a comeback when their children grow up, while others simply retire.

Zhao Liying's personality means that she is destined to never be able to return to her family completely because of her children.

But she still has the backup of her position as a senior executive at Blue Whale. She can't give up her entire career, but she can give up part of it, choosing the lesser of two evils.

Wei Yang sometimes admires himself. He arranged Zhao Liying to participate in the behind-the-scenes work with a stroke of genius. Now he can have the best of both worlds and can move forward and backward freely...
