Chapter 472: Unchanged, "Parallel Cohabitation"

We are all acquaintances, so we have no worries when chatting.

"Brother Yi, Brother Feng, you two, please don't put your hat on me."

Lin Xing burst out laughing: "Besides, "Love Is Not Easy" will premiere only the day after tomorrow, and tomorrow is the launch press conference. If you two are so vicious, you will be held responsible."

This made Zu Ming happy. He smiled and said, "The recent promotion of "Love Is Not Easy" is really thanks to Lin Xing. Otherwise, it would not have been so popular?"

Lin Xing hurriedly said: "Director Zu, you think too highly of me. I'm just promoting it. And the reason why "Love Is Not Easy" is so popular is because the show itself can arouse the audience's love..."

"Axing, they say you are a live entertainment person. Why are you so humble in front of us??"

Zu Minghun said nonchalantly: "The publicity department of "Love Is Not Easy" has told me a long time ago that all the popularity of this drama is all because of you. No one paid attention to the other keywords they promoted. You will have traffic only if you are bound..."

Ren Yi was also a little surprised: "No wonder every promotional copy and video for "Love Is Not Easy" has Aite Xing..."

Zu Ming said with a bit of laughter and tears: "Yes, if a piece of copywriting doesn't have Aite's star, then I'm afraid it won't even have a few thousand hits, but Aite's star has millions of hits."

Zu Ming usually doesn't care much about this kind of traffic, just like he never used any traffic when he was filming "Anti-Gang".

But this moment, that moment.

People change.

What's more important is that this time "Love Is Not Easy" is Zu Ming's transformation work. There is a saying that Zu Ming himself has an unstable mentality.

Although he doesn't have any so-called failure to attract investment because of a hit movie, the current market is still very cruel, and Zu Ming hopes that this TV series will remain undefeated.

Yes.

As a transformational project, the thinking is often relatively simple, that is, as long as the capital is preserved no matter what.

Yes.

Just protect your capital.

To put it simply, as long as you don't rush into the street, it will be fine.

However, in the past two years, urban dramas, especially urban romance dramas, have actually become more popular, which also makes Zu Ming a little worried.

What's more, the TV series "Love Is Not Easy" has been suppressed for a while. How can Zu Ming not be worried? ?

"To be honest, the older you get, the more you worry about your younger years. When I was filming "Sweeping Out", I never thought about what would happen if this TV series became popular..."

Zu Ming sighed and said: "I didn't expect that just a few years later, I would worry about gains and losses. In other words, I had already started to be uneasy when I was filming "Love Is Not Easy". Otherwise, how could I let you, Ah Xing? Come and make a guest appearance..."

After drinking a little bit, Zu Ming said some self-deprecating words and even thanked Lin Xing emphatically.

It seems as if this drama's good results are all due to Lin Xing.

Not only that, Zu Ming felt that he really did not choose the wrong person when he selected Lin Xing. He almost missed Lin Xing.

Good guy.

If other people praised Lin Xing so much, maybe Lin Xing wouldn't care, but this is Zu Ming.

Not to mention the classic works he has filmed, there are many actors he has directed, and many of his works have become movie stars.

Who is Lin Xing? ?

This means that Lin Xing is a little presumptuous. You must know that not only from the perspective of others, but also from the perspective of Ren Yi and Feng Wei, Lin Xing's current status is also completely different.

There is nothing to say about the current dominance of TV dramas. There are not many people who are better than Lin Xing in the TV drama industry.

However, in the film industry, Lin Xing has completely risen to the top simply by relying on three literary films. This is something that everyone in the TV drama industry admires.

Let's put it this way, even if Zu Ming is so powerful in the TV drama industry, he still has no way to guarantee that the movies his daughter Zu Lan will make will be successful.

Because the TV drama industry and the film industry often have natural barriers.

Because of this, when Lin Xing had already made a name for himself in the film industry, and when Lin Xingming relied on Internet universities to make another wave of fortune, he still maintained this indifferent attitude. Even Ren Yi felt that Lin Xing was better than him at this point.

Good guy.

"Director Ancestor, Brother Yi, Brother Feng, if you continue to praise me like this, I may really become inflated."

Lin Xing said somewhat dumbfounded.

It was Zu Ming who praised him at first, and then of course Lin Xing quickly said a few words of humility. At the same time, he also felt that Zu Ming's praise was too strong.

The result was good, both Ren Yi and Feng Wei also started to boast.

Even Feng Wei said that having children should be like Lin Xing.

What nonsense.

In Lin Xing's view, he is just an artist now, and he is just doing a job. How can he be so mysterious? ?

Let’s get down to business quickly.

Lin Xing looked at them and simply changed the subject and explained the premiere of "Love Is Not Easy" tomorrow.

There really isn’t much to say about tomorrow’s premiere.

On the one hand, Banana Video is indeed very concerned about this TV series. For them, they think that this TV series will be promoted and competed no matter what.

On the other hand, Zu Ming actually calmed down as the broadcast was approaching. Otherwise, he would not have said so many compliments to Lin Xing.

In short, no matter whether "Love Is Not Easy" flops or is able to slightly protect its capital this time, Zu Ming expressed his gratitude to Lin Xing.

Of course, that's what they say, but who wants to jump on the street? ?

In other words, who doesn’t want to get better grades? ? ?

"It is impossible to fight against the street."

Ren Yi smiled and said: "Director Zu, you are not one of those people who only want to make money by fooling the audience or even making a bad movie. Your ability is here. In any case, I think "Love Is Not Easy" is also good. I won’t rush into the street.”

Feng Wei nodded slightly: "Yes, I think so too."

Lin Xing also smiled and said: "I still believe in the audience's aesthetics. Of course, I still say the same thing. This drama may be scolded by the audience, but I think being scolded represents the popularity..."

Yes.

From the beginning, Lin Xing felt that this script had some slightly incorrect views, even though Lin Xing later raised his opinion with the screenwriter, Zhao, and even slightly changed the character design.

But after all, Lin Xing felt that this kind of protagonist would not be likable.

But how do you say something? ? ?

As a director, or as a producer, you really are not afraid of criticism from the audience. What they are most afraid of is that no one will discuss it.

Someone scolding often represents enthusiasm.

However, Ren Yi and Feng Wei were a little surprised.

"No, Ah Xing, what do you mean? Why are you saying you will be scolded before the show starts??"

Ren Yi asked in astonishment.

Zu Ming explained with a smile: "Actually, it's like this. The male protagonist in this drama is a man who fights for love. Lin Xing thought so at the beginning, and..."

After listening to Zu Ming's general explanation, he also talked about Lin Xing's opinions during the original script discussion. Of course, Zu Ming only listened to half of it.

After all, filming was about to start, so it was impossible for him to overturn all the characters in the script.

"That's it. I think this is a TV series and not real society, so it should be fine."

Ren Yi said a little disapprovingly.

Obviously, everyone in this circle discusses and even understands the script differently.

Because of this, some people can tell whether a script is good or bad, while some people really can't tell whether a script is good or bad.

Even if it is Ren Yi, he can tell whether a script is good or bad, but he may not be able to tell whether the characters in the script are likeable or not.

Of course, Lin Xing did not dare to say that he was definitely right.

After all, the current TV drama market is still different.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Xing stopped talking about it.

Everything will be discussed after the launch press conference tomorrow, and the official launch the day after tomorrow.

While talking, Zu Lan also came.

"I thought you weren't coming, we were all leaving..."

Zu Ming looked at his daughter and said with some dissatisfaction: "Do you know the concept of time?? This is already an hour late."

"Dad, you are not willing to invest in my movie. If I want to get investment, of course I have to meet with some producers..."

Zu Lan said speechlessly, then she turned around and said hello to Ren Yi and Feng Wei, and then said to Lin Xing: "Brother Xing, you have to help me."

Although Lin Xing was told by Zu Ming, there was no need to give Zu Lan any face, or even just reject Zu Lan directly.

Not only did Zu Ming tell Lin Xing, but Zu Ming also told Ren Yi and Feng Wei when they started chatting.

Many times, children don't listen to what their parents say the most, but they are likely to listen to what others say.

But how could Lin Xing really refuse like that? ?

So he laughed after listening to Zu Lan's words: "How can I help??"

"Brother Xing, this is my script..."

Zu Lan quickly took out the script: "Brother Xing, please read the script first. This script was written by me and another friend, and I think this male lead role is very suitable for you..."

"OK."

Lin Xing put away the script and said, "Well, I'll go back and read it first, and I'll give you a letter tomorrow."

"OK."

Zu Lan hurriedly said: "Brother Xing, I believe you have vision, and you are the perfect male lead in this script. If you are really willing, we will talk about other roles..."

"good."

When Lin Xing just received the script, he just read the title.

"Parallel Cohabitation".

This name is quite interesting.

Zu Lan did not forget to explain to Lin Xing at this time, saying that this script tells the story of two time and space.

It's not time travel, it's the intersection of parallel time and space.

In short, Zulan has learned the lessons from the previous part. This time, he will not engage in time travel or the like, but will engage in the intersection of two time and space.

Half an hour later, Zulan left.

"Axing, didn't I tell you that you just reject her directly? You really don't have to look at my face..."

Zu Ming waited until his daughter left before he dared to speak.

"Hey, I'm still a little interested in this script, so I'll take a look first."

Lin Xing smiled and waved his hand.

Of course, Zu Ming didn't take this seriously, because he really felt that his daughter's script was not good.

Moreover, Zu Ming is a veteran director after all, and he cannot do the shameless behavior of those who are older than him.

Yes.

Those old directors are like Ouyang Qing. Their sons and daughters are actually only 4 points in ability, but they use all resources and means to make their sons and daughters reach 7 points.

But Zu Lan actually had a score of 7, and it's quite normal to fail as a director for the first time. What's more, Lin Xing watched the movie Zu Lan made, and it was actually okay.

It's just that the script is too bad, and Zu Ming actually doesn't have many people in the film industry who can help Zu Lan.

What's more important is that Zu Ming actually disagreed with Zu Lan's decision to make a movie from the beginning, and when the movie was shot, he felt more and more that he was right.

How to say it? ?

There is a kind of parents who hope that their children will succeed and their daughters will succeed. And not only that, they will never even praise their children.

That is, you should get 100 points in the test, but if you get 99 points in the test, you will be useless.

There are too many parents like this, and many of them even punish their children even if they don’t do what they want.

How to say it? ?

Some people relatively advocate the so-called crackdown on education.

When they were filming "Anti-Gangster", Lin Xing met Zu Lan several times. At that time, Zu Ming almost criticized Zu Lan without any mercy.

Later it was time to make a guest appearance in "Love Is Not Easy". At that time, Lin Xing was at the height of his popularity, but Zu Lan's new movie also hit the market.

At that time, Zu Lan’s new movie Zu Ming didn’t even go to support it.

In a later interview, he was not like Ouyang Qing who blindly defended his son. On the contrary, he said: "I did not approve of her becoming a director from the beginning. In my opinion, not everyone in the director's profession can Yes, it’s reasonable for the movie to be a hit.”

What should I say? ?

You might say that Zu Ming doesn't love her daughter, but that's not true. She spent a lot of resources on her daughter's movie, and even contributed a lot of money herself.

But you say he loves her, but he treats his daughter like that.

It can only be said that Zu Ming's kind of love is more of a strict father's type and is aggressive.

No, because there is a press conference for the premiere of "Love Is Not Easy" tomorrow, so everyone didn't drink too much, but before leaving, Zu Ming once again said that Lin Xing must not praise Zu Lan too much.

That means never praise her.

Because in Zu Ming's opinion, his daughter is really not capable.

Lin Xing could only smile and express that he understood.

After returning home, he simply took a hot bath, then read online discussions about various situations, and then prepared to read the script.

Again, Lin Xing only focuses on the script.

If this script is really good, then Lin Xing will take it.

But if it doesn't work, then Lin Xing can only refuse as Zu Ming said.
