Every time they saw fans of other idols complain about why their celebrity had accepted a supporting role that did not have any presence, or why this brother had gone to such a nameless underground channel, and why had the brother had gone to such a small city to do commercial performances—it was too low in class, they could only watch enviously.
Later, when they had gradually grown up, they realized that the entertainment circle was not a place where one could succeed just by working hard. This place was very complicated. Capable people might not become popular but even a good-for-nothing could become popular overnight. There was something called marketing hype.
Therefore, at that time, they had thought that it would be good if someone could promote them in the media. As long as they appeared in the eyes of the public, with their capabilities, they would definitely become popular.
However, in the end, due to the shortage of funds and the company’s promotion of their group in the wrong direction, they were not what the public liked. For various reasons, they had not been able to make them popular.
Later, when the company had closed down and the team had dispersed as well, the team members went their separate ways. They had already been disheartened by reality. Besides him, no one else was in the entertainment circle anymore.
He knew very well that regardless of whether it was marketing or building hype, no matter what method was used, it would be good as long as he could appear in the eyes of the public and make them recognize him.
Only when they knew about your existence would the interested people look for other information about you. Interest is the beginning of everything. Whether they will come to like you and become your fans will depend on your capabilities and personal charm.
A moment of interest was just a catalyst that attracted their attention. If this thing was really good, they would definitely buy it. If it was not, no fool would pay for it.
Su Yi had not expected that Xiao Ye would have to explain something she could not figure out. She knew that it was normal for someone in the entertainment circle to rely on marketing hype to climb up the social ladder. However, she was just a little disappointed and focused on insignificant issues for a moment. She patted the younger brother’s shoulder and smiled. “I understand. Black or white cats, both are good cats when they catch mice! Don’t worry, I’m not that weak.”
She was just lamenting the current state of the entertainment circle and the music industry.
She had never heard Xiao Ye mention his past. There was not much information or videos about them on the internet either. They had gone on few shows, and many of them were television shows from minor regions. The picture quality of the shows was very poor, and that was still the result made by Xiao Ye’s fans through various means.
Now that she had heard it with her own ears, she realized that he had suffered a lot in the past. Luckily, the child had persevered and did not leave the entertainment circle like his other teammates, which was why he was where he was now.
“Sister Su Yi, do you like Teacher Lu?” Although Cheng Ye was not very gossipy, the people in the group chat all said that there was something between Sister Su Yi and Teacher Lu.
“Did they make you ask me?” After saying that, Su Yi nodded seriously. “I do. Why wouldn’t I like Teacher Lu? How many girls would not like that kind of man?”
She would not hide this. If she liked him, she liked him. Why should she hide it? Besides, Xiao Ye and the others were not outsiders either.
Lu Yubai had gone down to buy things. The doctor had said that she needed to stay for the night to observe the situation, so he had gone to buy some daily necessities. However, when he returned, who knew that he would hear the girl say that she liked him!
As soon as Su Yi finished speaking, she looked up and saw a person standing at the door with two plastic bags in his hand. It was Lu Yubai. She stood rooted to the ground for a moment, and her face flushed red. She stuttered as she waved at him. “T-Teacher Lu!”
