Actor without ambition

Chapter 210 Stubborn Fan Xiaobing (big chapter)
"How's the editing going? Has it been set for a release date?" Zhang Yuxuan came to the editor and saw Ning Hao with a stubbled face.

"The editing went very smoothly. If there is no accident in the middle, we can work in the post-production last night before the National Day. However, Feng Gangpao's movie banquet seems to be released in mid-September, so Sister Hua is a little hesitant. What is it? If "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is released on National Day, or on Singles' Day on November [-]." Ning Hao said with a smile.

"The Banquet will be released in mid-September? Isn't Feng Gangpao grabbing the Spring Festival slot?" Zhang Yuxuan was a little surprised.

After all, the Spring Festival file was created by Feng Gangpao. It can be said that the Spring Festival file is almost dominated by Feng Gangpao. Now Feng Gangpao's movie is released in advance, and the time is also scheduled for September, which is a bit It's amazing.

"You're also surprised, right? Me too, that's why Sister Hua hesitated. It stands to reason that after half a month of a general movie's release, the box office will drop to a certain level. When a new movie is released, there won't be much impact." Influence. However, Feng Gangpao's movie, and it's still a blockbuster, will make people feel that they need to avoid the edge. In half a month, how much will the box office of Yeban's movie drop?" Ning Hao couldn't help it. Shaking his head, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.

Feng Gangpao has been acting as a director and making movies all these years. His reputation has already been established, and it is simply not comparable to the current Ning Hao.

"National Day, Double Eleven—didn't you want to earn a Spring Festival stall in the past?" Zhang Yuxuan asked with a twitch of his eyes.

"...Are you serious?"

"Just kidding. After all, the competition for the Spring Festival stalls is too fierce. National Day or Double Eleven Singles' Day are considered good schedules. However, Singles' Day is not a statutory holiday, and there will be no holidays at all. I I think National Day is more appropriate." Zhang Yuxuan said.

"You're right in saying that, but Sister Hua seems to have considered the publicity factor. On Singles' Day, it seems that going to see a movie about a broken relationship will be more convenient for publicity. At least it's a gimmick."

"I still think the National Day is a better time, because there will be a holiday. And it is a seven-day long holiday. In addition, the positioning of our film is young people, working white-collar workers. They will have time to watch movies when they are on holiday. .I still think National Day is more appropriate." Zhang Yuxuan shook his head and expressed his opinion.

"It seems that you are right to say so. But you should go to Sister Hua to discuss this matter. As for me, I just try to finish all the post-production work of the film as soon as possible."

"Yes, I know."

"By the way, the rebirth story you came up with before is very good!" Ning Hao gave Zhang Yuxuan a thumbs up again: "However, I always feel that the idea of ​​rebirth is a bit of a waste of pure comedy. A little more depth—”

"Ning Hao, it's just a comedy, not a drama, and it's not aimed at winning awards." Zhang Yuxuan couldn't help but interrupt Ning Hao.

"Um, that's right, that's right. I still didn't realize it for a while. Hahaha." Ning Hao laughed.

"Did you make "Charlotte Annoyance"?"

"Shooting, of course I did! Such a good script, how could I not shoot it!" Ning Hao said quickly: "Since I have a good script and don't have to worry about investment, how could I not shoot it. Sure enough, there are still people behind it. A big company is better, there is no need to worry about script investment or anything, just keep your head down and make a movie." Ning Hao said, smiling quite happily.

"As long as you feel happy."

"By the way, Yuxuan, let me tell you, Sister Hua told me before that as long as the box office of the movie "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is good, Sister Hua will let me continue to increase the shares of our company. Maybe in the future , My shares in the company are even more than yours." When Ning Hao said this, he became even happier.

Wang Jinghua's words definitely made Ning Hao full of energy.

After all, there is a big difference between working for others and making money for yourself.

"Then I have to congratulate you first." Zhang Yuxuan said congratulatoryly.Now that Wang Jinghua has said such things, Ning Hao will definitely be able to get more shares in Shiba Culture Media Company.After all, Ning Hao's own talent lies here.

In the future, Ning Hao may become Feng Gangpao's to Huayi to Shiba Culture Media. No, it's not maybe, but it must be, it must be like this.

After chatting with Ning Hao for a while, Zhang Yuxuan said goodbye to Ning Hao. Ning Hao continued to edit the movie, and Zhang Yuxuan went to report to Wang Jinghua.

"Yuxuan, you're back." After Wang Jinghua saw Zhang Yuxuan, her face was full of smiles, with indescribable enthusiasm.

"Well, I went to meet Ning Hao just now, he is still editing "33 Days of Broken Relationship", so sister Hua, when do you plan to release this movie?" Zhang Yuxuan asked with a smile.

"It hasn't been finalized yet. It's probably during the National Day holiday or Singles' Day on Double Eleven. Yuxuan, what do you think?" Wang Jinghua asked.

"National Day. It's the seven-day National Day holiday. The audience of our movie is probably white-collar workers. During the seven-day National Day holiday, they will have plenty of time to watch the movie, or else it will be wasted." Zhang Yuxuan said Say.

Hearing what Zhang Yuxuan said, Wang Jinghua pondered for a while, then nodded: "You are right to think about it from this aspect. Since you support the seven-day National Day holiday, then we will release it during the National Day."

As a matter of fact, Wang Jinghua analyzed whether it is National Day or Double Eleven, these two time periods from many aspects, big and small.

What Zhang Yuxuan said, Wang Jinghua had already considered it.

Now that Zhang Yuxuan was able to explain so thoroughly, Wang Jinghua simply chose the time that Zhang Yuxuan felt was suitable from these two time periods.

"By the way, Yuxuan, that book about Charlotte's troubles is pretty good!" When Wang Jinghua talked about this book, her expression looked even more joyful.

To be honest, Wang Jinghua never thought that Zhang Yuxuan had such abilities before.

In Wang Jinghua's view, it is enough for Zhang Yuxuan to be a good actor. In order to expand his reputation, the worst thing is to release two albums.

By the way, in recent years, the sales of albums have been getting worse and worse. Most of those who release albums and personal records do not have high sales. 80.00% of them end up losing money when they release records.

Zhang Yuxuan's previous albums did not lose money, but they did not make much money.

Especially compared to being an actor and filming, the money earned from releasing an album is not too little, that is, to make Zhang Yuxuan more famous and more popular, so I released the album for Zhang Yuxuan.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of time and effort to collect songs, and even go to Xiaozhaiguo to buy copyrights. It would be really not worthwhile to spend so much effort and earn that little money.

Wang Jinghua never expected that besides being an actor, Zhang Yuxuan could also make up stories.

33 days of lovelorn, although Xing Aina wrote the book in the end, but the main body and ideas of the story were created by Zhang Yuxuan.Filming is over now, and post-production is in progress.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yuxuan brought another story that seemed more interesting, and Charlotte was annoyed.

Wang Jinghua found that Zhang Yuxuan was really good, whether it was writing the story or changing the script, or Zhang Yuxuan's own vision in choosing the script.

That's right, it's Zhang Yuxuan's own vision for choosing scripts. Since his debut, all the scenes Zhang Yuxuan has filmed are all selected by Zhang Yuxuan himself, and the ratings of the films he filmed are all high. It seems that there is no mistake in the selection of scripts at all. .

"Charlotte is worried about this book, when will Sister Hua plan to shoot it?" Since Wang Jinghua mentioned it, Zhang Yuxuan simply asked.

"It depends on the situation. Look at the situation of the 33-day romance. After all, in our company, the current director is only Ning Hao. Naturally, the first consideration is the director of our own company's script. Wait a little bit, wait for the 33-day romance." After the release." Wang Jinghua's words were not complete.

But Zhang Yuxuan understood the meaning of Wang Jinghua's words. He probably wanted to see how the box office of Ning Hao's movie "33 Days of Broken Relationship" was.

Use the movie 33 Days of Broken Relationship to prove Ning Hao's strength.

If the movie makes money, it can be sure that Ning Hao's own strength is good.If the relationship breaks up for 33 days and the box office is an unprecedented hit, it will prove that Ning Hao is super talented, and he is definitely an object that needs to be paid attention to and invested in.

If the movie 33 Days of Broken Relationship fails to make money—the director Ning Hao will still continue to train, but the intensity of training will be reduced.

This is also an aspect that a qualified boss should consider.

……

"Originally, I planned to take advantage of this time to find another movie for you to shoot, but after a month or so, the filming of The Deer and Ding Ji will start. The leading actor Wei Xiaobao, Zhang Dabezi, has already agreed with you to let you act. The remaining period of time is a bit embarrassing. As for movies, there are no suitable ones in the near future, mainly because of time, if the time is longer..." Li Ling said helplessly.

"It's just that I can rest for another month, it's fine." Zhang Yuxuan waved his hand and said with a smile.

"You haven't had enough rest, have you? Half a year of this year has passed, and you just filmed 33 Days of Broken Relationship. Although it's the male lead, the movie itself is a chick movie, and you don't have many roles in it." , and after that, you will play a little more roles in the golden armor in the whole city. It can be said that you haven't been very serious about filming this year." Li Ling shook his head helplessly.

In fact, this situation is also normal.

If Zhang Yuxuan hadn't thought about jumping from the TV drama circle to the movie circle, Zhang Yuxuan would never stop inviting various scripts throughout the year.

But because Zhang Yuxuan was going to make a movie, the script of the TV series was pushed back, and as for the film industry, Zhang Yuxuan was considered a newcomer.

So the stage Zhang Yuxuan is in now is quite embarrassing.

Fortunately, the previous filming of "Crazy Stone" became a dark horse, and the supporting role played by Zhang Yuxuan, Mike, also took advantage of the trend, so more or less, he still received some scripts.

It's just that although some movie scripts can be received, most of them are supporting roles, and because Zhang Yuxuan will go to film The Deer and Ding Ji later, the time interval in the middle, the length of time, is a bit embarrassing, either the role is not good, or it is not enough time.

"After 33 days after Broken Relationship is released, many movies will come to me. Let's talk about it then." Zhang Yuxuan said nonchalantly.

"You really have confidence in "33 Days of Broken Relationship"!" Li Ling couldn't help but said.

"Of course, the story I came up with, the script I stared at, and the movie I participated in, how could I not have confidence."

"Success, I'll see how much your movie can earn at the box office." Li Ling couldn't help shaking his head, but he was still full of expectations. He really hoped that the movie "33 Days of Broken Relationship" would have a good box office. It would be better than Crazy Stone's box office. That way, even if it's a chick movie, Zhang Yuxuan, as the male number one, will never turn down an invitation for a movie script in the future.

Just as Zhang Yuxuan took the script of The Deer and Dingji sent by Zhang Dazi and was flipping through it when he was free, his mobile phone rang.

Zhang Yuxuan saw the caller ID on his mobile phone, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Who? You seem surprised?"

"Fan Xiaobing."

"Fan Xiaobing? She chose to stay in Huayi before, and her relationship with us has been broken. Why did she call you again? What happened?" Li Ling couldn't help but wonder.

"Just ask." Zhang Yuxuan said so, and connected the phone.

"..."

"Well, it's me. It's true that I haven't practiced for a while."

"..."

"Looking for me to make a movie? The male number one?" Zhang Yuxuan's expression was astonished.

"..."

"Success, let's meet and talk."

Henry Zhang hung up the phone.

"Fan Xiaobing asked you to make a movie?" Li Ling asked immediately after seeing Zhang Yuxuan hang up the phone.

"Well, she said that there was a movie where she was the heroine, so she asked me if I wanted to be the leading actor. If so, she would recommend me." Zhang Yuxuan nodded.

"Tsk, what's going on? Fan Xiaobing obviously stayed in Huayi, but now she accepts the movie but asks you to be the leading actor. What does this mean? Could it be that Huayi wants to poach you?" Li Ling frowned. Frowning and pondering.

"Probably not. I've joined Shiba Culture Media now. Even if I didn't want to say it outside, Huayi should know that I hold the shares of Shiba Culture Media." Zhang Yuxuan shook his head and said.

"So, what's going on? Could it be that Fan Xiaobing wanted to find a way out for herself?" Li Ling said thoughtfully.

"possible."

"Forget it, go meet and chat with her, and you'll know what's going on." That's all Li Ling could say.

Zhang Yuxuan also nodded.

After that, Zhang Yuxuan and Fan Xiaobing met at the agreed place.

"Long time no see!" Zhang Yuxuan.

"Long time no see, what do you want to drink?" Fan Xiaobing said to Zhang Yuxuan with a smile.

"Coffee." Henry Zhang.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, everything got down to business.

"Look, this is the script." Fan Xiaobing put a script in front of Zhang Yuxuan.

""Lost in the Capital"?" Zhang Yuxuan looked at the four words on the script.

"This is director Li Yu's book. It's for awards. I think the book is pretty good. Then, I think it's good to film with you, so I want to invite you to be the leading actor in this movie." .” Fan Xiaobing said with a smile.

"Then I really want to thank Miss Xiaobing." Zhang Yuxuan said so, and then opened the script.

The content of the script is also quite simple. It is a couple from other places who came to the capital to work. The man is a window washer who works at heights, and the woman is a foot-washing girl in the foot-washing city, and then——

Zhang Yuxuan suddenly raised his head and stared at Fan Xiaobing with wide eyes.

"Sister Xiaobing, isn't this script a bit too much?" Zhang Yuxuan couldn't help but said, "Can this scale be filmed?"

"No problem. Director Li Yu has consulted with him. It can be filmed. At most, some shots will be deleted when it is released." Fan Xiaobing said with a smile.

"Miss Xiaobing, I'm sorry, I think—"

"I'll go into battle myself. Why? I don't even care. You are a big man, why do you care so much?" Fan Xiaobing said with a smile.

"...You don't need a double?" Zhang Yuxuan couldn't help looking at Fan Xiaobing in astonishment.

"Didn't I just say that this script is aimed at winning awards, do you think using a double can win awards?" Fan Xiaobing shook his head.

"But, is this scale worth it?" Zhang Yuxuan couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Yuxuan didn't quite understand that in order to win an award, he had to take part in this kind of movie, and it was not certain whether he would win the award in the end.

"I need an award to accompany me!" Fan Xiaobing pursed his lips slightly, then raised his head to look at Zhang Yuxuan, and said seriously.

"..."

"Yuxuan, if you want to be in the film industry, you must either have enough money or enough acting skills. Needless to say, money, the only thing that can prove it in terms of acting skills are awards. My contract with Huayi , it’s due next year, and to be honest, I have other plans in mind, so this time I’m bound to win the movie.” Fan Xiaobing spoke decisively.

"The contract with Huayi expires next year?" Henry Zhang understood what Fan Xiaobing was thinking.

"Yuxuan, you won't tell this matter to the outside world, will you?" Fan Xiaobing's expression changed slightly, she lost her tongue for a moment and revealed something, feeling a little regretful in her heart.

"Sister Xiaobing, don't you know? I never tell other people's secrets. Don't worry, Miss Xiaobing, I haven't heard anything." Zhang Yuxuan shook his head hastily.

"Thank you, Yuxuan. This script is actually quite good, and it also has benefits, so, do you really want to refuse? To be honest, I don't feel disgusted if I film this movie with you. Be someone else—so, how about you just help me?" Fan Xiaobing turned into a smiling face again, and said to Zhang Yuxuan with a smile.

"Well, forget it, I feel that this script—how should I put it, in fact, if you want to win an award, you don't necessarily have to make this kind of movie, Miss Xiaobing, to be honest, your audience popularity is very good now, Although you may hate others calling you Jinsuo, this role has indeed brought you a huge foundation. Almost all the people have a certain affection for you. But if this movie is made, Sister Xiaobing, you just have to Afraid—" Zhang Yuxuan shook his head and said.

"For the audience, it doesn't matter if it's a TV series, but this is a movie—" Fan Xiaobing understood what Zhang Yuxuan said, but she was still stubborn in her heart.

"The same goes for movies. This movie may not be able to win an award! At least domestic awards, this movie, absolutely cannot participate." Zhang Yuxuan said decisively.

"I didn't want to win an award from the mainland. Doesn't the international actress sound better than the mainland actress?" Fan Xiaobing said with a smile.

"..." Zhang Yuxuan looked at Fan Xiaobing who was determined to win the award, and really didn't know what to say.

"Yuxuan, how about helping my sister once?"

"Sister Xiaobing, I still think that this kind of script is not good. If you want to win an award, you don't have to make this kind of movie! After this movie is released in China, what do you think the domestic audience will think and think of you? Xiaobing sister , you are serious about filming, willing to work hard, and your acting skills are not bad, so don't rush." ​​Zhang Yuxuan persuaded earnestly.

Fan Xiaobing's smile gradually faded, and he shook his head with a bit of stubbornness in his expression: "Yuxuan, if you want to set foot in the international circle, you must have a certain reputation in the world—"

"Sister Xiaobing, you have just made it in China, and you want to go abroad. Are you too anxious? First, consolidate your position in China, and first make two films that can be nominated or even awarded for domestic actresses. Wouldn't it be good to move abroad after laying a good foundation in China?" Zhang Yuxuan felt helpless.

To be honest, Zhang Yuxuan was very moved by Fan Xiaobing's invitation.After all, Fan Xiaobing is also a beautiful woman, especially Fan Xiaobing's figure, Zhang Yuxuan dare say, is definitely a very comfortable type.

Moreover, Fan Xiaobing could think of him when filming this kind of scene, which also showed that Fan Xiaobing was relatively close to Zhang Yuxuan in his heart.

But it was also like this that Zhang Yuxuan wanted to persuade Fan Xiaobing more and more.

Zhang Yuxuan seems to remember now that "Lost in the Capital" should have changed its name later, and it was changed to "Apple". Xiaobing didn't seem to have won any good awards for this movie.

It should be said that Fan Xiaobing's contribution to this drama is not worth it.

"Sister Xiaobing, I think you really want to win an award. You don't have to make this kind of movie. You can change the direction and shoot some stories about rural areas, or stories about remote mountainous areas. Those people abroad like to watch that type of film. You may not even be nominated for a play with a strong sexual color." Zhang Yuxuan persuaded again.

Fan Xiaobing frowned, thinking about the possibility Zhang Yuxuan said.

"After spending so much on filming, it's okay to win an award. If you don't even get an award, it will become a joke."
