Chapter 578 Because I Have a Friend
"It looks like Lin Xing won't be filming TV series in the short term, right?"
"To be honest, I feel like Lin Xing doesn't have time to film TV series anymore, but it's a bit unexpected to work with Guo Haishan."
"Actually, it's not surprising. Lin Xing and Guo Haishan worked well together in last year's Spring Festival Gala. Although Guo Haishan didn't say much behind the scenes, Guo Haishan's apprentice praised Lin Xing to the sky."
"It's understandable. Guo Haishan is mainly in TV dramas. As for movies, he hasn't actually made them yet. It seems that the first stop for retirement is to make movies."
…
"I'm not optimistic about it because the movie market is still quite deep. I don't believe that Guo Haishan can make any good movies."
"It can only be said that times have changed. Guo Haishan, as a master of comedy, has come to an end in the Spring Festival Gala. How can he win the love of the audience if he makes comedy works again?"
"It's not that Guo Haishan's comedy is not good, but it's been a long time since comedy movies made people laugh."
…
That's often the case.
When you are eliminated by the times, then you are truly eliminated and there is absolutely no way you can go back.
Just like Chu Xingrui in the past, he was known as a god back then, but now he has been abandoned by everyone.
And then Sharp, who is known as Chu Xingrui's successor, is not the same. How strong was his box office appeal? ?
As a result, I made a few bad movies, and then it really stopped working.
If you say no, it won’t work.
In short, the audience is so realistic, they will not pay for your so-called strong popularity.
If popularity can be converted into box office, then so many TV series and movies will not be popular.
Not to mention other things, isn't that what An Yifeng is like? ?
Although the public likes her very much, they will not pay for her box office performance.
Even Lin Xing never thought that she could handle the box office when she was interviewed, but she did not disappoint the audience.
Just like Wang Ruo'an, when it comes to his character, naturally everyone gives thumbs up, but he has made too many bad movies before, so people naturally won't pay for his movies.
Therefore, popularity among passers-by and conversion into box office are often two different things.
Exactly like this, Lin Xing disagrees with any statement that it can carry the box office.
When being interviewed by "Movie House" today, Lin Xing had the same view.
"Axing, you are enlarging the satellite every time."
Allen, the editor-in-chief of Film House, smiled and said to Lin Xing: "The first time I interviewed you was for "Killing Aden", and the next interview was for "The Golden Guard", a major network film, and now again. The interview is that the science fiction movie has been scheduled..."
Lin Xing also laughed: "I don't zoom in on the satellite every time. It's because you interview me too little."
Allen was also dumbfounded: "Axing, I would like to interview you every day, but you have to give me a chance. You are busy every day..."
Lin Xing and the editor-in-chief of this movie house have known each other for a long time, and they often discuss some real things about movies.
You must know that many actors are illiterate. Not to mention understanding the movie, they don't even know how to shoot it. They all follow the director's instructions.
Like why do some new actors act so well in Master Guo's movies? ?
In fact, it was Master Guo who trained me well.
Even when Chu Xingrui was the director, he taught every actor exactly how to act.
So in many cases it's not about the actor's acting skills, but rather how powerful the director is.
For this reason, the current trend in the entire circle is actually wrong.
When it becomes popular, it's all the actors who reap the bonuses, but when it fails, it's all the director and screenwriter who can't do it.
Even though Lin Xing is an actor, he still thinks it is wrong when faced with such a phenomenon.
"Actually, I'm actually breathing a sigh of relief now."
Lin Xing said with a smile: "Do you know when it is the most difficult as an actor??"
Allen said he didn't know.
Lin Xing said: "That's when filming. The 'difficulty' here does not refer to the difficulty of filming itself, but refers to the idea and mood. When you make a movie, you may think it is good, but the audience may not necessarily agree with it after it is made. …”

Allen listened to Lin Xing's words and said: "So what you care about most when making a movie is whether the audience likes it or not?"
"That's right, I've said it before, I never care about whether it's box office or not. I only care about whether the audience likes it or not..."
Lin Xing nodded slightly and said: "As an actor, there is not much I can control, so I just want to control what I can."
Lin Xing is not miserable because he really is not miserable.
He is now willing to invest hundreds of millions of people, what else can he do to sell it? ?
"Is the investment pressure in "Dead on Earth" high? It is indeed high, because it is five movies in one go, and the investment for the first one has already reached 300 million yuan..."
Lin Xingdao: "This does not include the subsequent announcements, so if this movie hits the street, it will definitely affect the subsequent four movies. No one's money comes from the strong wind."
Allen asked: "Everyone thinks that there is no market for this science fiction movie, so why do you insist on filming it?"
"It's not that I have my own way, but after I read the original work, I thought it was really good. Plus, director Sun Feng has always wanted to make science fiction movies..."
Lin Xing said: "In fact, although the outside world is not optimistic about "Death on Earth", we are actually quite optimistic about it internally. At least I don't think it will fail, because I believe in the quality of this movie."
Alan asked at this time: "Axing, I am not pessimistic about you, because we all know that your movies have never failed, but what if? What if everyone doesn't buy it? What if this movie really fails?"
Lin Xing said indifferently: "If it really fails, then it fails, and then I can still be an actor, right? I will pay it back slowly, and I will definitely continue to make science fiction movies. And I have a friend who should be able to help me a little..."
Good guy.
If it were other actors at this time, they would have to sell a wave of misery, but Lin Xing directly said that he could either make a movie or have a friend.
Yes.
Among Lin Xing's friends, the rich friend is really awesome, and it's not a polite remark, it's really awesome.
After all, a friend who can easily take 100 million as pocket money, you say such a friend is not awesome, and which friend is awesome? ?
After the interview, Allen couldn't help but ask: "Ah Xing, why did you risk everything to make this sci-fi movie? The most important thing is to shoot five films in a row?" (End of this chapter)
