Today.
Early in the morning, Zhang Ye refused to get out of bed. He went online on his cellphone and saw that there were more comments on "Tribute to the White Poplar". It was full of praise. He glanced at it a few times and did not take it to heart. He opened the official Celebrity Rankings website and looked at his own ranking. The website was very standard. After all, it was the most authoritative website in the industry. Historical information and results could be clearly found.
He searched for the name "Zhang Ye".
Yesterday's Rating: D-List, Rank 1375 in the same category.
Yesterday's Rating: D-List, Rank 1382 in the same category.
Today's Rating: D-List, Rank 1375 in the same category.
There were many things from Zhang Ye's world that this world did not have, but many of the works and successful models from this world did not exist in Zhang Ye's world either. It was impossible to judge which of the two places was better. Strictly speaking, this world's professional rankings were very standard. There were many artists, and their development paths were very wide. There were no limitations. For example, many celebrities in this world had started as models. They had worked their way up to the D-List or even higher in the modeling industry before moving on to television or movies. In the end, they had achieved great success. But in Zhang Ye's previous world, these were much worse. Models, authors, poets, it was very difficult to cross over. At most, they could only reach the top of their industry. Only a very small number of people succeeded in changing careers. There were many limitations.
This was something that Zhang Ye appreciated. If not, with the few radio broadcasts and poems he had written, he would not even be considered a celebrity in his world. This world was unified. No matter what field you had accomplished in, as long as your results were outstanding and famous, they would be added to the Celebrity Rankings. Even if you were a taxi driver, if you caused a reaction in society through certain things, then your statistics would soar to the D-list. There would also be advertisers looking for you. The most important thing in this world was fame!
Of course, if one's fame rose rapidly because of some current hot topic, the statistics would be discounted. Every increase in one's fame had its own strict formula. This kind of unstable, temporarily trending popularity would rise and fall quickly. The celebrity statistics on the ranking website would not only increase but not decrease. If one did not have any works for a long period of time, one's fame would drop very quickly.
Speaking of which, perhaps it was because it was more open, the scale of development of the entertainment industry here was much larger than that of Zhang Ye's world. The number of celebrities here was more than ten times that of his world.
Looking at the lower ranks of the E-list celebrities, Zhang Ye was only ranked in the top 1,000. Looking further down, the lowest was ranked in the 1,400s. That was already more than a thousand people. Going further up, adding up the D, C, and B-listers, there were even more of them. The S-list and A-list celebrities were actually negligible as there were too few of them, especially the S-list celebrities. There were only a few of them, and only a few of them managed to reach the top.
The overall environment of the entertainment industry is not bad. Sigh, but the competition is fierce. There are pros and cons.
1375？
1382？
He dropped seven rankings yesterday?
Zhang Ye knew very well that because of the popularity of "Dead Water", he had entered the ranks of the E-list celebrities. However, after the rise in attention, it would eventually drop. Yesterday was an example. Even when "Ghost Blows Out the Light" was still being broadcasted, Zhang Ye's ranking could not be maintained. Although his ranking had risen again today, it was definitely because of the reputation of "Tribute to the White Poplar". Although the broadcast clicks were not high, the reputation of an artistic work was still very important. It was also an important statistic in the rankings. This statistic was definitely much higher than other hype. After all, there were some arts that could not be measured by popularity.
The popularity of "Dead Water" was already gone.
"Tribute to the White Poplar" would only gain popularity in the next few days.
"Ghost Blows Out the Light" would also end in half a month.
Zhang Ye was under a lot of pressure. He also felt a sense of crisis. No, he could not stay here any longer. If he stayed at home and did nothing, his fame would definitely drop. What did celebrities rely on? They relied on continuous attention. Zhang Ye felt that if he did not do anything, he would definitely drop from the E-list celebrity rankings in a few days and return to being a public figure? He definitely did not wish to see that happen. The fame and reputation that he had painstakingly built up was getting closer and closer to his dream. He could not watch helplessly as he dropped!
Find a job!
His goal was the television station!
This was Zhang Ye's next goal after completing his job at the radio station. He really wanted to develop himself in the television hosting industry. It was much better than a crappy place like the radio station!
Zhang Ye also did not dawdle in bed. With the feeling of urgency, he began to browse some recruitment websites in high spirits. After submitting a few resumes, he began to browse some of the television station's official websites. When he saw any that were hiring hosts, he would send his resume to their mailbox. For those that were not hiring or did not have a hiring notice, he also submitted his resume to them without a word. He was casting a wide net. Who cared if they were hiring or not, he would submit his resume to them!
However, a scene that left Zhang Ye at a loss whether to laugh or cry happened!
Twenty minutes later, the Jinshi Television Station was the first to reply to Zhang Ye's application email. The email said, "Teacher Zhang Ye, our temple is small and cannot accommodate a god like you. Please find another place." It was obvious that they knew Zhang Ye. They must have heard of the song "Dead Water".
The second reply was from the Zhejiang Television Station. The email was from the Zhejiang Television Station's Human Resources Department, "Sorry, we are not hiring." However, Zhang Ye had clearly seen the recruitment notice on their website. They were looking for a variety show host, and it was especially urgent.
It was a recruitment notice that had just been sent out!
Great, so it's my turn to not be hiring again?
Your television and radio stations have really banned me? It can't be to that extent, right? I only scolded my unit and the Leaders. I was scolding the Beijing Radio Station, not you!
Actually, Zhang Ye knew very well how big of a mess he had caused at the award ceremony. If not, why didn't he contact Teacher Hu Fei, who had promised him, and instead submitted his resume himself? He knew that no one in the industry would dare to hire him, especially the Beijing Television Station. From a certain point of view, even if the team was different, they were still in the same boat as the Beijing Radio Station. Hence, Zhang Ye did not give Hu Fei any trouble. However, knowing was one thing. Zhang Ye could not help but curse a few times to himself. All of you are too narrow-minded!
… …
At the same time.
Like the Wind Recruitment Network's Shanghai headquarters.
A staff member in charge of contacting various companies for recruitment had nothing to do. He was flipping through the resumes without paying much attention. He wanted to finish his work quickly so that he could get off work early. As he casually clicked on it, he found Zhang Ye's resume posted on their website. He was very surprised when he saw it. Former Beijing Radio Station's broadcaster? Created and broadcast the famous supernatural novel, "Ghost Blows Out the Light"? Wrote "Little Bunnies Be Good", which was promoted by the Beijing Education Bureau? Published many modern poems with over a million hits online? And even won the most prestigious newcomer award in the broadcasting world, the Silver Microphone Award?
Talent!
This was a high-quality talent!
He was shocked by the beautiful resume. Then, he searched on the internet. Indeed, the resume was not fake at all. It was all Zhang Ye's achievements! Immediately, the staff member was very touched. Why would such an awesome person need to go to our recruitment website to find a job? Which place wouldn't fight for you? But you still chose us? You trust us so much? He immediately felt a great responsibility!
He had to live up to the trust of the customer!
He had to live up to the recognition of such a high-quality talent!
He was not picky at all. Hmph, look at some other people. They don't even have any achievements and still have a bunch of requirements. He had seen someone who was also applying to be a host previously. He was a fresh graduate with no prior experience, yet he requested to be a variety show host and also requested that his screen time be guaranteed. He was extremely picky, so what right did he have to do that?
Look at Teacher Zhang Ye!
Kind! Low profile! Professional!
Don't worry! Just leave this job to me!
The staff member logged into the system's backend and quickly found the information of seven or eight positions that were hiring hosts. Then, he called them one by one!
"Hello, I'm from Windlike Recruitment Website. I have a person with very good qualifications who is applying to be a host. When are you going to interview him?" The staff member said.
The other party asked, "Does he have work experience?"
The staff member smiled and said, "Of course. His results are especially outstanding. You people in the industry should know him. His name is Zhang Ye. He won this year's Silver Microphone Award."
"Zhang Ye?" The other party was dumbfounded.
The staff member chuckled and said, "Yes, yes. You know him too, right? He trusts our website a lot and submitted his resume to us. I also feel that your television station's conditions are not bad, so I recommended such an excellent resource to you first. How about it? Interview tomorrow? "
The other party was silent for a long time before saying, "You should leave the excellent resource to other television stations. Our station's conditions are actually not that good, so we don't want him."
"Ah? You don't want such an excellent talent? "
Just as he said that, the other party hung up with a beep.
The staff member was puzzled. He made a second call, followed by a third and a fourth. In the end, everything was fine on the other side. When they heard that there was a talent, they were eager for it. But when they heard the staff member say that the person was Zhang Ye, they were all dumbfounded!
Finally, on the sixth call, a television station staff member said with a long face, "Big Bro, can I call you Big Bro? This is the second time you are calling. I'm in charge of the recruitment for the variety show and news program. We just spoke on the phone, so please spare me. I'll tell you the truth. If I agree to let Zhang Ye interview, I'll probably have to go to another unit for an interview tomorrow! "
The Windlike Recruitment Website staff member was stunned, "Is it that exaggerated? What's wrong with this person? "
The television station staff member said with a wry smile, "It's nothing much. He just had an argument with his colleagues online. During the award ceremony, his acceptance speech was a poem cursing the unit. He even made a Leader faint!"
When that person heard this, he nearly vomited blood. He finally understood why Zhang Ye had submitted his resume to a small website like theirs. It was not because he trusted them, but because there was no unit that dared to accept him, so he came to try his luck!
How was this a high-quality talent!?
This was clearly a notorious hooligan!
