Chapter 501 Suffering a Loss Is a Blessing, I Really Can't Do It
An Yifeng's mother is an old fairy. As I said before, she is a typical self-satisfied person.
Just like An Yifeng knows that she and Lin Xing are just friends, but An Yifeng's mother thinks that Lin Xing has bad intentions.
After all, who would dislike their own daughter? ?
She even thinks that Lin Xing's disrespect to her is because she is angry that she did not let her daughter participate in "Death on Earth" and ruined Lin Xing's good fortune to pursue her daughter.
Yes.
An Yifeng's mother thinks that Lin Xing wants to pursue her daughter. This is probably fake to film with her daughter, and it is true that he wants to take the opportunity to have a polite bed.
After all, this kind of situation is too common in the crew. An Yifeng's mother thinks that Lin Xing must have this idea.
Thinking too much.
An Yifeng really wants to tell her mother that even when filming "Killing Ading", Lin Xing basically never thought of taking advantage of her. On the contrary, Lin Xing was the nervous party when filming the bed scene.
Besides, what's wrong with having a polite bed with Lin Xing? ?
But An Yifeng really had no way to explain these to her mother, and she was too lazy to explain anything.
She felt tired because her mother had a very good self-image, so good that An Yifeng was a little ashamed.
What's the connection? ?
Although An Yifeng didn't know how much investment was made in "Death on Earth", and she didn't even read the script, she thought Lin Xing was not the kind of person who blindly played around.
To be honest, if Lin Xing was really like the other directors, what kind of women would he not sleep with? ?
You have to know how many women can sleep with the entire crew for fame, not to mention people like Lin Xing, how many people are lining up to work with him.
Not only TV drama stars, but also movie stars.
For this reason, An Yifeng believed that Yang Tian must have taken the initiative to recommend the movie "Parallel Cohabitation".
The reason is very simple. An Yifeng knows how hard this sister has worked. She has already failed in two movies, and she must do everything she can to stand up again.
In this regard, An Yifeng felt that she still had to learn from Yang Tian, because sometimes An Yifeng really couldn't let go of this kind of airs, or the thick skin that she could take and put down.
Think about it, although An Yifeng's mother and sister rejected Lin Xing for "Death on Earth", these two people represent themselves after all.
What's more, An Yifeng's mother and An Yifeng had such an unpleasant quarrel later, which made An Yifeng embarrassed to talk to Lin Xing.
But look at Yang Tian again. At the beginning, the quarrel with Lin Xing because of "Spy Blood" was not actually pleasant, but in the end, he still seemed to be leaning on Lin Xing as if he didn't care.
An Yifeng couldn't accept this.
It would be fine if her mother didn't remind her, but this mention made An Yifeng feel that she had to apologize to Lin Xing again at the Golden Dragon Award anyway.
Lin Xing didn't know about the mother and son of the An family, and he didn't even pay much attention to the National Day file.
Throughout the National Day file, the filming of "Parallel Cohabitation" was proceeding in an orderly manner.
The crew will not take a holiday during the National Day.
You know how much money the crew will lose if they stop working for one day? ?
However, Lin Xing also asked Wei Fei to inform all the crew members that the wages of all the staff during the National Day will be calculated at 3 times.
Today is the last day of the National Day, and Ren Yi and Guan Peng will leave tomorrow.
It has been 47 days since the start of "Parallel Cohabitation". Ren Yi and Guan Peng's scenes have been filmed long ago. After all, they are just guest appearances, which only take one or two days.
But the two have been helping the crew for nearly 50 days. This is because Lin Xing helped Ren Yi and Guan Peng before, so they are naturally willing to help.
Not only that, during the National Day, Zu Ming also came to visit the set and helped shoot for a few days.
Lin Xing even had the sudden idea of letting Zu Ming play a guest role. Anyway, Zu Ming's acting skills are no problem.
This is mutual help in the circle. If it was just Zu Lan, then Zu Ming would not have come to visit the set, help with the filming, and even give some opinions and guest star.
But it’s different with Lin Xing.
Think about how much favor Zu Ming owes Lin Xing for the TV series "Love Is Not Easy"?
The most important thing is that Lin Xing did his best to make suggestions for "Love Is Not Easy", and Lin Xing didn't say anything when he was being bullied.
At that time, many fans of Lin Xing were dissatisfied and wondered why Lin Xing was so willing to let Zu Ming bully him? ?
Because everyone thinks that being a good person in the entertainment industry is not okay, and being a good person means being sucked dry.
But sometimes being a good person is rewarded.
Suffering a loss is a blessing.
Or it can be said that Lin Xing's style of doing things has always been to repay a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye, and repay a favor and a grudge double.
Therefore, he was willing to help Zu Ming. As for the so-called loss is a blessing, Lin Xing did not believe it. If there is no meaning to suffer losses, it will only get more and more.
Just like Kong Shan at the beginning, if Lin Xing had always been polite to him, or even endured it with the so-called loss is a blessing, then the other party would definitely take advantage of him, and even in the end it would only affect Lin Xing's popularity.
Lin Xing helped Zu Ming because he believed in Zu Ming's character. Just like this time, Zu Ming came to visit the crew and also did everything he could to help the "Parallel Cohabitation" crew.
Even during the meeting, Zu Ming said that he knew a little bit about TV dramas, which was his comfort zone, but he didn't know much about movies, so if Lin Xing needed his help, he could just speak up.
So there was the situation of Zu Ming filming this time.
When Zu Ming left, Zu Lan actually felt quite devastated. You know, she wanted Zu Ming to make a cameo appearance in her last movie, but Zu Ming said: "I came to make a cameo appearance in your play, what would that be? Isn't this obviously telling everyone that I want to support you?"
As a result, this time in "Parallel Cohabitation", Zu Lan didn't expect her father to make a cameo appearance, but Lin Xing said that Zu Ming came to make a cameo appearance.
When Zu Lan asked Zu Ming, Zu Ming said: "Can that be the same?"
Okay.
This made Zu Lan feel as if she was picked up, but in the end Zu Lan still enlightened herself.
In any case, it's good for "Parallel Cohabitation".
After the filming of the last day of the National Day file was completed today, Zu Lan also personally practiced for Ren Yi and Guan Peng.
In the crew, these two uncles really taught Zulan a lot, and Zulan really learned much more knowledge in the crew of "Parallel Cohabitation" than in the previous drama.
"I won't come to the wrap-up party."
Ren Yi and Lin Xing drank another cup and said, "Tell me when it's released."
Guan Peng said, "I'm fine here, but do I have to join the crew of "Death on Earth" next?"
"Well, wait until the Golden Dragon Awards are over."
Lin Xing nodded gently and said, "At present, "Parallel Cohabitation" is almost finished, and Brother Zhou will take care of the post-production next..."
Liu Zhou said, "In fact, except for those special effects, the post-production is also quite simple. After all, we did a storyboard before, and the shooting was quite smooth, and the editing was not that difficult..."
In fact, this is because the homework done in advance was done well. A lot of work had been done during the [script discussion], and then the discussion was carried out while shooting, so the shooting was naturally accurate, and the editing was much easier.
Because I have to continue shooting tomorrow, I didn't drink too much tonight.
The next day, on the first working day after the National Day, the box office was bound to enter a deserted state, and the data network also updated the total box office of the National Day.
How to say it? ?
The National Day in 2027 set the third worst box office record in the past ten years.
"Damn, it's really embarrassing. When has the National Day been so bad? You know when were the last and second to last National Days??"
"Yes, in fact, this year's National Day was said to be the strongest National Day at the beginning, but now it has become the worst."
"The blockbuster failed, the actor's box office appeal failed, everyone thought that there would be a 3 billion+ movie in this National Day, or even two, but it turned out to be a big shame."
"Thinking about it, "Going to Heaven" is really awesome. The 3 billion+ box office of "Going to Heaven" is too awesome."
...
After the data network updated the box office of the National Day, the industry and the audience basically sighed.
The actor's box office appeal has been broken again.
This time, no one expected Sharp to be so bad in "Customized Couples", and his reputation and popularity also collapsed a little.
This is often the case. Actors have to rely on their works to speak, and people's popularity of actors is often just a filter for your works.
When your works continue to flop, the audience will naturally abandon you.
This was the case with Chu Xingrui at the beginning. After he didn't have good works, people gradually lost their filters for him.
The same is true for Sharp today. Of course, he still has a certain appeal. After all, the box office of "Customized Couples" can't be considered too bad.
The real flop "Happy Divorce" has already been carried away.
The film industry is not something that everyone can easily play.
Just like art films, everyone thinks that Lin Xing can be so awesome, so maybe I can do it too, and I can also make a 3 billion+ movie?
The result is that I really can't do it.
Even though Ouyang Qing's current reputation and popularity have almost been exhausted, especially this National Day "Anti-Japanese Unretreat" has completely consumed Ouyang Qing's previous popularity.
"No."
Lin Xing smiled at Zu Lan and said: "Popularity is often more metaphysical, not to mention that most of the time the director's reputation is sometimes not important, what really matters is the work."
You know, some directors have such poor popularity, but their movies are still a big hit at the box office.
But what will Ouyang Qing's future movies be like? ?
Lin Xing believes that Ouyang Qing will not disappoint people.
Or in other words, Ouyang Qing will never disappoint people in terms of disappointment.
The reason is very simple.
Ouyang Qing is already this age, it is basically impossible for him to change anything, and his movie box office is not bad, so he can't change.
On the contrary, it is Sharp who really feels that he needs to change.
Before "Customized Couples", although Sharp also had several movies that failed, they were all guest appearances by him, and there were even fans who helped Sharp save his reputation by saying that it was not popular enough.
But "Customized Couple" is very popular. Even though the whole movie also has a female protagonist, all the focus is on Sharp.
In other words, after watching "Customized Couple", you will not feel how wonderful Wang Ruoan and Guan Qing are as the male and female protagonists like "Dangerous Liaisons". On the contrary, you will only feel that this is an absolutely male-oriented movie. A drama.
But under such circumstances, the box office of "Customized Couple" in the entire National Day period during the seven-day period was only 530 million. The previous prediction was 1 billion, but now it seems that even 1 billion is difficult.
As Sharp's leading starring film, "The Customized Couple" recorded his worst box office performance.
The worst here refers to Sharp Ichiban's movies.
You must know that Sharp is an actor with a box office worth tens of billions, but he has never won the Best Actor.
Yes.
Sharp has always been a box office draw, but he has never won the Best Actor award, which is not surprising.
You must know that although Chu Xingrui is called the God of Chu, he has only won the Best Actor once, and it was not a comedy.
It is difficult for comedy films to win awards. This is a point often discussed in the industry.
For this reason, many people think that Sharp should actually transform, but he has been making comedies. Not only comedy films, he also participates in various variety shows. In short, it seems that he is squandering his talent.
But it’s understandable.
Because it’s so cool.
You don't need high acting skills, you even just need to act in your true colors, and then passersby will like it very much and even be willing to buy tickets to support it.
Who wouldn’t envy this popularity? ?
But there will always be a day when the popularity will be exhausted. In many cases, the consumption of popularity is not sudden, but accumulated slowly. When the accumulation reaches a certain level, it will completely explode.
From the perspective of the industry, and even from Sharp's point of view, his popularity should be quite good. Even the announcement of "Customized Couple" felt that Sharp's box office appeal was adequate.
As a result, the box office seemed to pour a basin of cold water on my heart.
However, Sharp is still willing to admit defeat. During the road show, he said that he has actually tried to reduce variety shows as much as possible, and at the same time, a movie in his transformation will be released to everyone soon.
Sharp actually had great expectations for the movie "Customized Couple", but he did not expect that the audience would not buy it. At the same time, Sharp also said that comedy is difficult to do, and he has long wanted to transform.
Of course, Sharp's fans don't think that "Customized Couple" was thrown off the market because of Sharp's affairs.
They think this is because of the general environment and the current box office of movies.
But when facing Sharp fans, someone said: "Do you want to see the box office of "Going to Heaven"?"
