Le modèle du partenaire

Tout commence avec Gap (2022), enfin c’est là que j’ai rencontré pour la première fois le phénomène, peut-être qu’il existait bien avant cela.

Les deux protagonistes principaux, Sam et Mon sont interprétés par Freen (Sarocha Chankimha) et Becky (Rebecca Patricia Armstrong). Les deux actrices ont été choisies pour ces rôles qui propulseront le drama GL Thaï à un niveau international après s’être donné la réplique dans le drama BL, Secret Crush on You (2022). La légende dit que Saint (Suppapong Udomkaewkanjana), producteur de la série (et CEO de Idol Factory), est tellement impressionné par l���alchimie entre Freen et Becky qu’il veut leur donner leur propre série, Gap.

On ne va pas explorer le monde fou du shipping, sinon on en a pas fini. Mais j’aime beaucoup cette idée du partenaire parce que, selon moi, on a tout à y gagner, nous les viewers, mais également les artistes.

Je vous disais donc, FreenBecky interprètent Sam et Mon dans Gap et à partir de là, de leur alchimie frappante, on se demande si elles jouent la comédie ou si elles sont réellement en couple (pas de shipping on a dit). Idol Factory joue beaucoup de cette appellation, FreenBecky et cela permet aussi à de nombreuses portes de s’ouvrir pour les deux actrices.

Le personnage de Susi (interprétée par Eclair (Chatsak Mahata)) l’explique très bien dans The Secret of Us, laisser les actrices passer pour un couple fictif signifie des contrats plus nombreux et plus avantageux.

Outre l’appât du gain, cette configuration permet aux actrices ne pas se retrouver seule face à une célébrité parfois très soudaine. On ne compte plus celles qui décrivent leur partenaire comme une safe place, une zone de confort. Elles se soutiennent, s’encouragent… le propre du partenaire.

Les fans voulant voir ces couples imaginaires à l’écran, elles semblent plus facilement engageables pour des rôles en duo. Reprenons l’exemple de FreenBecky, après Gap, elles ont tenu les rôles principaux dans le film Uranus2324 (James Thanadol Nuansut, 2024), ceux de Pin et Anin dans le dramas The Loyal Pin et on a annoncé, il n’y a pas longtemps, qu’elles auraient les rôles principaux de la série Cranium prévue pour 2025.

Plus elles jouent ensemble, plus leur acting parait naturelle. Dans un live, l’actrice Engfa Waraha explique, en parlant des scènes romantiques qu’elles partagent avec sa partenaire, Charlotte Austin, dans Petrichor (2024) qu’elles sont plus naturelles, plus intenses parce que Petrichor est leur troisième projet commun. Avant cela, Englot partageaient l’affiche de Show Me Love (2023) et Love Bully (2024). Elles se connaissent, savent comment réagit l’autre, etc…

Les couples fictifs semblent se multiplier à l’image des dramas GL de plus en plus nombreux. Une petite liste de celles que l’on peut retrouver à l’écran.

Idol Factory, avec la série My Marvellous Dream Is You (2024), met en scène Fay (Kanyaphat Na Nakhon) et May (Yada Watcharamusik) dans les rôles de Dawan et Khimhan. FayMay sont annoncées comme les personnages principaux de la série Somewhere Somehow qui devrait arriver en 2025.

Lingling (Sirilak Kwong) et Orm (Kornnaphat Sethratanapong) interprètent le Docteur Fahlada Thananusak et l’actrice Earn Sanithada Phongphiphat dans The Secret of Us (2024). Les deux actrices prénommé LingOrm ont annoncé qu’elles se donneraient à nouveau la réplique dans la série Only You, qui devrait bientôt arriver, où elles jouent le rôle de Tawan, garde du corps de l’idol Ira.

Comment parler de couples fictifs sans parler de FayeYoko, Faye (Peraya Malisorn) et Yoko (Apasra Lertprasert), qui ont tenu les rôles de Nueng et Anueng dans les deux saisons de Blank (2024). Elles ont déjà parlé plusieurs fois d’un futur projet commun, mais on attend avec impatience qu’elles nous en annoncent plus.

Il n’y a pas si longtemps, j’ai regardé le drama Apple My Love (2024) racontant la romance entre Kris et Karn interprétées par OrmFolk, Ormsin (Supitcha Limsommut) et Folk (Sutima Kokiatwanit). On parle déjà d’une nouvelle série, mais rien n’a encore été confirmé à ma connaissance.

En ce moment, je regarde Pluto avec Namtan (Tipnaree Weerawatnodom) et Film (Rachanun Mahawan), une série que j’apprécie vraiment beaucoup. GMMTV a déjà annoncé la participation de NamtanFilm à l’une de leur prochaine série, Girl Rules, et cela a l’air fou.

Europe's retailers tempt shoppers with Black Friday deals

New Post has been published on https://lawyer800marketing.com/business/europes-retailers-tempt-shoppers-with-black-friday-deals/

Europe's retailers tempt shoppers with Black Friday deals

Local vanity Numbers:

LONDON (Reuters) – Retailers across Europe chased shoppers on “Black Friday” in a test of consumer demand, particularly in Britain, where the spending spree imported from the U.S. looked set to outdo last year.

After last month suffering their biggest decline in sales volumes for four-and-a-half years, British retailers are pinning their hopes on discounts to get shoppers squeezed by inflation and subdued wage growth spending again.

In Britain, the annual promotional event, traditionally focused on electrical goods, has been mainly played out online since 2014, when in-store sales were marred by scuffles.

The jury remains out on whether retailers make money by cutting prices in an event that was imported to Britain from the United States by online retailer Amazon (AMZN.O) in 2010.

By 3 p.m., Barclaycard, which processes nearly half of UK debit and credit card transactions, had seen an 8 percent increase in spending compared to last year, and a 32 percent increase in transactions.

“Consumers may be opting to buy more goods at a lower price rather than investing in a handful of higher-value items,” said Barclaycard’s Paulette Rowe.

Department store John Lewis [JLP.UL] said its busiest shopping hour had been 9-10 a.m., with an average 705 items ordered per minute.

“It will be our busiest trading day of the year,” John Rogers, chief executive of electricals-to-toys retailer Argos, owned by Britain’s second biggest retailer Sainsbury’s (SBRY.L), told Reuters.

The research firm GlobalData forecasts that UK spending in the period Nov. 20 to 27 – will be up 3.8 percent from last year at 10.1 billion pounds.

PROFITABLE OR DAMAGING?

Black Friday’s advocates say carefully planned promotions with global suppliers boost sales while still maintaining margins.

Critics say the discounts drag forward sales that retailers would otherwise have made at full price at Christmas, and can dampen business in subsequent weeks.

Seb James, CEO of Dixons Carphone (DC.L), told BBC radio that his company gained market share from Black Friday.

As last year, retailers including Britain’s biggest, Tesco (TSCO.L), and Amazon are stretching their promotions over up to two weeks, hoping to smooth out demand and reduce pressure on supply and distribution networks.

Clothing retailer Next (NXT.L) joined Black Friday for the first time with price cuts of up to 70 percent. A spokesman for the firm said it was an experiment to see what effect offering discounts on the previous season’s stock, normally sold in the Boxing Day sale, would have on full-price sales.

“Categorically we have not got a stock problem,” said the spokesman. Shares in Next fell up to 1.7 percent.

CONTINENTAL IMPACT

Black Friday, the day after the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday, was so named because spending would surge and often push retailers into the black for the year.

Its impact is also being felt across Europe.

In Germany, sales promotions on Black Friday and Cyber Monday (Nov. 27) are expected to add around 1.7 billion euros ($2 billion) to retailers’ revenues, roughly on a par with 2016, a survey by trade body HDE found.

About 8 million French consumers are expected to shop from Friday to Monday, yielding expected revenue of 945 million euros, according to a study by Kantar TNS for the U.S e-commerce firm eBay.

In Denmark, supermarket chains Bilka and Fotex said their websites had been taken down by cyber attacks at the launch of their Black Friday campaigns.

The sales promotion has also been growing in Italy, where all major retail chains were advertising discounts. The department store La Rinascente was opening until midnight on Friday and advertising discounts of up to 50 percent.

But Black Friday has had a slow pick-up amongst Spaniards, who traditionally exchange presents on Epiphany (Jan. 6). Just 22 percent intended to make a purchase on Black Friday or Cyber Monday, according to a survey by Metroscopia for the newspaper El Pais.

It was more subdued in Greece, where the economy contracted by more than a quarter between 2008 and 2016. “People don’t have money to spend,” said 32-year-old Athens shopper George Christopoulos. ($1 = 0.7506 pounds)
