Chapter 241 Killing Ading Is Worth the Risk (Asking for Monthly Votes)

"I read the script and I think it's OK, but it's too depressing..."

Ding Chunling was a little undecided and said, "If I talk about it rationally, I think it's better to forget it, because let's not talk about the script first, Diane is now a person that everyone avoids..."

This is the truth.

Because Diane can't get investment now, he can't even find an actor.

Most actors don't want to play Diane's script.

The reason is very simple, they all don't think highly of Diane.

If this is Sister Dao, then Sister Dao will hardly tell Lin Xing about it, she herself refused.

But Ding Chunling discussed it with Lin Xing, because in this circle, there are often more people who add icing on the cake and fewer people who help in times of trouble.

"But I think this is also an opportunity. You will make a movie sooner or later. This time, even if it is a simple test."

Ding Chunling smiled and said, "And it doesn't matter if it really fails. Art films don't have high box office. What's more, if it really fails, everyone will only say that Diane is not good."

This is the truth.

Just like the movies of big directors, when the movies flop, the director is the one that everyone blames the most.

Especially now that Diane has already failed twice in a row, if Lin Xing really plays the lead in the third movie, she will have less pressure.

Fortunes are sought in danger.

Other actors may avoid it at this time, but Ding Chunling thinks it is okay to take a risk.

As an agent, you have to help the artist to explain all the risks clearly, and also help the artist to list all the options.

"Overall, I think this script may not be good at the box office, but this role is still quite..."

Ding Chunling thought for a while and said two words: "Crazy."

Yes.

Ding Chunling thinks that this protagonist is indeed a little crazy. Generally, agents have the ability to appreciate scripts, so Ding Chunling read the script twice in a row before calling Lin Xing.

"But don't worry, how about this, Xing, you read the script first, and see if you can control this role?"

After talking about the pros and cons, Ding Chunling finally decided to let Lin Xing read the script.

"Okay, send me the script later and I'll take a look first."

Lin Xing nodded gently.

As Ding Chunling said, there is no rush now.

Originally, Lin Xing didn't want to enter the film industry so early. Just as Ren Yi persuaded him, Lin Xing should at least have a few No. 1 TV series in the TV industry first.

Strictly speaking, Lin Xing currently has no No. 1 TV series in the TV industry.

This "For Whom the Bell Tolls" Lin Xing is a booster.

Let's put it this way, the game "Secret Lurker" is popular, and Lin Xing's fame has further increased with Xiao Bo.

But no matter how much everyone likes and admires "Secret Lurker", it is a game after all.

And "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is broadcasted exclusively on Shanghai Satellite TV, which is related to Lin Xing's ability to carry the show.

You have boosted the number, so you must be responsible for the ratings.

That's why Ding Chunling doesn't feel anxious. In her opinion, everything will have to wait until "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is broadcast.

This is the highlight.

Others can be put on hold.

Lin Xing chatted with Ding Chunling for a few more words before he hung up the phone.

Five minutes later, Ding Chunling sent the script.

This name.

"Killing Ading".

Those who know it think it's an art film, and those who don't think it's a martial arts film.

And after reading the script, Lin Xing found that the story is indeed as Ren Yi said, revealing a sense of depression and magic.

The protagonist is called Ading.

He is a single young man in the village. He often goes to the pub at the entrance of the village to drink. He works as a car repairman, but he was fired because of an injury.

Ading is not a tall protagonist. Looking at him, Lin Xing even remembered that he used to be a street urchin in the village, playing tricks, stealing chickens and dogs, and occasionally flirting with women.

Just look at Ading flirting with the nurse when he was treated in the hospital.

…

Lin Xing read the script for about an hour.

Real.

First of all, Lin Xing felt that the script was indeed somewhat real. Look at the friends who grew up with Ading. Some of them drove nice cars and became coal bosses, some ran training courses in the provincial capital, and some worked as government officials.

Then look at Ading?

He can only preside over justice among the children.

He is face-conscious and pretentious, but also cowardly.

Lin Xing has seen many such people.

And the magic lies in the second half of the plot. Ading suddenly married a deaf-mute masseuse. Not only that, Ading's dead father and brother came.

His brother even brought a sister-in-law.

Kill Ading.

Lin Xing was also surprised when he saw the magic here.

In fact, Ading may have died after his childhood friend's wedding.

As he said, what's the point of living? ?

He is like many ordinary people who have ambitions but run into obstacles everywhere. He can't get high or low. The harder he tries, the more he fails.

In the end, he either reconciled with himself and became the middle-aged man he hated the most when he was a child, with old people above him and young children below him, silently carrying the burden forward.

Or he went crazy.

Lin Xing thought the script was really good, but he was not sure about the role of Ading.

You can let Lin Xing play a domineering CEO or a social elite, and there is no problem with Lin Xing.

But for him to play the role of a young man from a small town, especially a street kid, is the most annoying type. To be honest, Lin Xing was really confused.

But the script was so good, Lin Xing felt it was a pity to give up like this.

Not to mention the matter of seeking wealth through danger, Lin Xing felt that this role was worthy of a challenge.

He likes challenges.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing walked out of the hotel directly, and then he came to Ren Yi's room door.

"Axing..."

Ren Yi looked at Lin Xing in front of him in shock: "What happened???"

"Brother Yi, is it convenient to go in??"

Lin Xing asked first.

"ah??"

Ren Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Of course it's convenient, let's talk about it first."

"Axing, what happened?? If you need my help, just ask."

At this time, Ren Yi's tone seemed extremely serious.

If Lin Xing knocks on his hotel door, something big must have happened.

You know, they just finished drinking.

What's more important is that Ren Yi thinks that logically nothing will happen to Lin Xing. If he had a dark history and his house collapsed, it would have collapsed so early.

But the more this happened, Ren Yi felt that the matter was getting bigger.

"Brother Yi, take a look at this first."

Lin Xing didn't think too much, he handed the tablet to Ren Yi.

"this……"

Ren Yi was a little confused when he saw the script on the tablet: "Isn't this Diane's script???"

"Yes, Brother Yi, when you were drinking today, you said that you had read all the scripts. Is that true???"

Lin Xing raised his head and asked.

Ren Yi was still a little confused at this time, and he said: "Of course it's true. I've read this script twice."

"Brother Yi, I don't know why Diane gave this script to my agent, and I really like the story. What do you think of me playing Aden??"

Lin Xing asked.

"No, Axing, this is why you came to me in the middle of the night???"

Ren Yi looked at Lin Xing and asked in disbelief.

"yes."

Only then did Lin Xing react and said with some embarrassment: "Brother Yi, I'm sorry, I mainly liked the story when I saw it, but I couldn't control it for a while, so I just wanted to talk to you."

"It's okay. You really scared me just now. I thought something was going to happen to you."

Ren Yi was really frightened by Lin Xing's behavior. He took a sip of water and then slowly said, "Do you still remember what I told you today? Don't take risks easily. You are not suitable for taking risks now."

really.

After the second drinking session with Lao Yang and Kong Shan today, Ren Yi had a private chat with Lin Xing and told him not to take risks easily.

Okay.

Not even three hours after saying this, Lin Xing came to him in the middle of the night and said he wanted to play the role of A-Ding.

How about playing? ? ?

"Brother Yi, I know, but this script is really good. I think as an actor, if I don't play this role, I will regret it in the future."

Lin Xing said seriously.

"you……"

Ren Yi still wanted to persuade him, but he thought about Lin Xing's character, especially Lin Xing's thinking about acting, and even Zu Ming thought Lin Xing was a lunatic.

It is really reasonable for such people to be interested in a script like "Killing Arden".

"But Ah Xing, you also heard the words of Jiang Ning, Lao Yang, Kong Shan and others during the party today. They all have a rather vicious vision. Even they think the box office is not very good..."

Ren Yi sighed: "I think your acting will be harmful to you now but not beneficial at all."

"I know, but Brother Yi always wants to challenge himself as an actor, and the most important thing is that I want to play a small character, and I want to expand my acting career..."

Lin Xing expressed his thoughts.

At present, Lin Xing feels that his acting career is far from wide. More importantly, if he wants to go further, he must hone his acting skills.

This Aden is also an opportunity.

As for the box office? ?

Lin Xing hasn't thought that much yet. If an actor accepts a drama based on the box office, then the most likely thing is that the actor will miss out on a lot of good scripts.

"Fine."

Ren Yi heard what Lin Xing said, and he stopped trying to persuade him, but he asked the key question: "Do you think you can play the role of A Ding well?"

"That's why I came to you."

Lin Xing sighed: "The main role is too far away from me at the moment. I'm really not sure."

"Well, if you really decide to act in this drama, then go and experience life."

Ren Yi thought for a while and said: "Many actors nowadays have given up on experiencing life. They all join the group seamlessly. This kind of experience is not allowed. They may not even understand the characters."

"Experience life?"

Lin Xing thought for a moment and said, "That's fine. Anyway, I really don't have anything to do in the next two months. It's just time for me to experience life."

"You should talk to Diane about this first. I heard him say that he wanted to place the shooting location in the northeast. The towns there still retain their original appearance, and even most of the life in the town is far from the same. So rich..."

Ren Yi is originally from the Northeast, so he knows a lot about many cities in the Northeast.

In the past few years, it has been quite wrong to film crime themes in the Northeast. It is normal for Diane to film this kind of film.

The two of them chatted for another half an hour, mainly about the script and the characters.

It wasn't until Ren Yi couldn't stand it anymore that Lin Xing left.

The next day, Lin Xing called Ding Chunling and said that he had accepted the script.

"Don't accept other activities for me recently. After I communicate with Diane, I'm going to experience life..."

Lin Xing said to Ding Chunling.

"good."

Ding Chunling thought for a while and said: "Since you want to take a risk, then go for it. Then we will find a way to publicize it."

"Okay, let's do this first. I'll make a call to Diane and see if he's still in Modu??"

Lin Xing said a few words and hung up the phone.

"Hello, Director Dai, I am Lin Xing..."

Lin Xing asked straight to the point: "Are you still in the Magic City now???"

Diane had already arrived in the imperial capital at this time, because Jiang Ning helped him find another investment company.

"Lin Xing, hello, hello, what a coincidence, I'm already in the Imperial Capital now..."

Diane asked with some anticipation: "Have you read the script??"

Lin Xing nodded lightly: "Yes, I have read it. I am very interested in this script, so I want to chat with you in person. Since you have already arrived in the Imperial Capital, I will contact you when I arrive in the Imperial Capital..."

"Okay, okay, no problem, no problem..."

When Diane heard that Lin Xing was actually interested, she immediately became excited.

You must know that the most important actor in "Killing Arden" is the protagonist Arden. Originally, Diane wanted to invite Shen Fei to play the role.

After all, Shen Fei often plays small characters, especially cowardly little characters. More importantly, Ren Yi also recommended Shen Fei.

As a result, Shen Fei was rejected instantly.

Not to mention the issue of remuneration, Shen Fei said that he will join the crew for filming next, and his schedule has been scheduled until December 2025.

So there's really no time.

have to.

This is basically a tactful rejection.

In fact, Diane didn't want to hand over the script to Ding Chunling because Diane felt that Lin Xing would not agree to it.

Otherwise, wouldn’t Diane have had a chat with Lin Xing at yesterday’s party? ? ?

This was the script handed to Ding Chunling by Diane's wife Li Qian.

In Li Qian's words, just cast more nets. What if you can really catch a fish? ?

But Li Qian handed this book to Ding Chunling for several days, and there was no response from her, so it was basically a PASS.

As a result, I never expected it, and I actually caught it.

"Honey, it's possible."

Diane quickly called his wife.

Li Qian said: "Lin Xing really likes good scripts as rumored. Lao Dai, you must put away your temper when you meet Lin Xing. As long as Lin Xing is willing to participate in the show, then we can also attract investment... "

Diane nodded slightly: "I understand."

At the same time, Lin Xing received a WeChat message from Yang Tian.
