My landlord is a big star

Chapter 96 95. Sad September 9th

"Xu Lin, have you decided what to shoot for your next work?"

"……No!"

As for his next work, Xu Lin has no clue at present, besides, "Jin Zhiying Born in 82" is still being released, and he is not a donkey of the production team, so he has no thoughts at all.

CJ Entertainment values ​​his high-volume and high-quality work, but inspiration is a wonderful thing.

It's not that there are all kinds of things.

Making money is of course important, but Xu Lin doesn't want to make movies indiscriminately. As a director, a good movie is worth watching repeatedly. If he makes another movie to make money now, his reputation will only be ruined.

After thinking for a while, Xu Lin picked up the script that had just been thrown on the table, and quietly looked at Li Quanbin.

"Is this EXO famous?"

"...You don't want to make their TV series, do you?" Li Quanbin's eyes were a little speechless: "The fire is quite popular, but no matter how popular they are, they are also idols. It is impossible for the company to let you make this kind of bad drama. Let’s go home and create honestly.”

"Ah, I didn't say I would shoot it! Do you think I will shoot this kind of script?" Xu Lin yelled with the corners of his mouth pulled.

Naturally, he wouldn't do things like filming himself. He just asked casually. After all, this group of people and the employees of the same company as his girlfriend couldn't know each other.

Originally, he was just out of politeness, but he didn't expect Li Quanbin to take it seriously. He really didn't understand this person's strange thinking.

"That's true." Li Quanbin nodded and replied: "EXO has been very popular in recent years. It stands to reason that you should know them. This group of children is very popular in China, and there are so many fans."

"...You are wrong. I don't pay attention to the music industry. How could I know about this group?"

"Haven't heard of it?"

Seeing that he didn't believe it, Xu Lin shrugged, leaned lazily on the back of the swivel chair, and looked up at the ceiling.

"Why should I have heard of it? Why does it feel like you are a fan of them? If I say that you have never heard of it, you will find it incredible. Although they are all from the entertainment industry, they are in different industries."

"That's true, but I'm not a fan. I've watched their activities in China before watching videos."

"Oh, do they have a lot of fans?"

"A lot, a lot, a lot, you can't imagine the amount."

Words can't describe those numbers, so Li Quanbin turned on the phone immediately, his eyes lit up after swiping twice, then handed his phone to Xu Lin, and inserted the cigarette butt into the ashtray.

Eloquence is unsubstantiated, facts speak louder than words, originally the two of them were just chatting casually in idleness, so it doesn't hurt to have a look.

Xu Lin took the mobile phone and looked down. The photographer shot down from the height, and the fans who were full of screens rushed in through the guardrail built by the police like zombies who had lost their minds.

For some reason, after watching the video, he suddenly thought of the "The Walking Dead" that he watched with Lin Yuner.

The madness is still a bit scary, pushing and pushing, no one will let anyone else, Xu Lin was inexplicably speechless, sighed and turned off the video, he returned the phone to Li Quanbin and said at the same time:
"It's a bit scary for fans to chase stars. Is it so popular? Why haven't I heard of it?"

"You are not at the same level." Li Quanbin raised his eyebrows and said, "You are a director, so it is impossible for you to have such a large fan base. Now all groups are like this, with a lot of fans."

"Scary." Xu Lin was still immersed in the shock of fans chasing stars just now. He pursed his lips, and suddenly a new idea popped up in his mind, and he casually said to Li Quanbin: "There are no zombie movies in Korea, right? What do you think I make disaster movies?" Sample?"

"You want to be a diss fan?" Li Quanbin shook his head with a look of astonishment, "I suggest you don't do this, otherwise you're asking for trouble, and the company won't allow you to do this."

After saying that, Xu Lin laughed out loud. He is not stupid. He will not squander the fame he has accumulated so hard, and he will not point the finger at those crazy fans.

Star chasing has advantages and disadvantages, and the existence of fans is actually a double-edged sword.

Rational star-chasing fans are polite and humble. Passers-by will not be bored when they see it, but will also be curious about that star. As for crazy fans... it is purely ruining the popularity of passers-by.

Just now when Xu Lin was watching the video, he suddenly thought of a zombie movie, that's all, it doesn't make any sense.

He grinned, slumped on the swivel chair and explained:

"Supervisor Li, you are slandering me. I don't intend to piss off fans. It's so boring to force understanding."

"Then what are you going to film?"

"Zombie, didn't I just say that?" Xu Lin looked at him puzzled, stood up with a smile and said, "What else can you make in a disaster movie? Human nature, emotion, and bondage."

"Bond? Wait...where are you going?"

Looking at the back of Xu Lin who was about to leave, Li Quanbin asked quickly, afraid that he would go home and sleep.

"Creation in the lounge! Call me if you need something."

The voice was accompanied by a bang, the office door closed, Li Quanbin twitched the corner of his mouth, and muttered:
"madman……"

...............

Film production can be roughly divided into three steps, before shooting, during shooting and after shooting. Xu Lin is currently in the first stage. He is only conceiving, and the story has not yet been written.

Asian zombie films are scarce, and there is a huge gap in the market to enter. Everyone wants to be the first to eat crabs.

After Xu Lin returned to the rest room, he took out his notebook, slumped on the swivel chair, and then watched "The Walking Dead". Don't get me wrong, he didn't fish for fish, this is called collecting materials.

Observing the shooting methods of the seniors can make more perfect shots. The most important thing is to learn a lot of experience, so as to prevent detours when shooting yourself, and be prepared.

The hardest thing about disaster films is special effects. Many blockbuster films require computerized images, which must be produced by a large number of 3D model designers, animators, motion painters and other personnel, and zombie films also need action instructors.

The time for watching the movie passed quickly, and it came to noon unconsciously. After Xu Lin went downstairs to get the fried chicken takeaway, he swaggered upstairs with the takeaway and continued to watch.

Sitting at the desk, Xu Lin stared intently at the laptop screen, and raised his hand to chew on the fried chicken.

It's normal to replenish energy when you're tired from studying. One bite of fried chicken and one bite of beer, fishing with pay... Bah, bah, bah, it feels really good to study with pay, anyway, it's more comfortable than studying in school.

When the time came to around four o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Lin stretched his waist, got up, packed his computer and went home.

The moment the door was opened, Leo ran over cheerfully, circling around him. When he was traveling, the young couple gave Leo to the pet shop. Don't mention how much the little guy misses them.

After the simple feeding, Xu Lin didn't see Lin Yun'er, probably after picking up Leo and returning home.

Um!Another day of hard work!
-
On September 9th, the weather was getting cloudy, the heat disappeared, and the autumn wind was bleak. Xu Lin originally planned to go back to China to watch the concert, but the Busan Film Festival was held on October 30nd.

Although it was a pity, he had no choice but to give up his plan to go to the concert. After getting up early in the morning and washing up, Xu Lin drove to the company. Today he wanted to confirm his costume and look for the film festival, and write some acceptance speeches by the way. After all, he is Someone with inside information.

After swiping his card to enter the company building, he saw a group of employees queuing up in the elevator. He didn't think much about it, he lowered his hat and stepped forward to line up, and the smell of various perfumes swept over him.

Only then did he feel how good Lin Yuner's taste was, and some of the tastes were true and welded him a mask of pain.

Walking into the elevator and pressing the floor, Xu Lin lowered his head to play with his mobile phone, and faint gossip sounds came from his ears.

"It's really explosive, I didn't expect SM to be so tough, and I don't know what the fans will think."

"Didn't you read the translation? She said she didn't know it, maybe some other people bullied her, ah, we also went downhill when we were young."

"What a downhill road, it's clearly a crisis, a crisis!"

"You saw that too?"

"How can you not see it? There is a lot of noise on the Internet now. This kind of scandal is already tearing your face."

"That's for sure. My children cried after seeing the news. Hey Yigu, I'm speechless."

"..."

In a country like South Korea with a well-developed entertainment industry, entertainment news can kill everyone's time. The place is small and has a large population. Compared to Xu Lin who is confused, everyone else is discussing it.

Xu Lin was stunned by the voice in his ear. He came in a hurry this morning and didn't watch the entertainment news. They mentioned Girls' Generation in their chat. He was just about to ask what happened when the elevator door opened and a group of people walked out of the elevator. Xu Lin There was no time to think about it, so I could only turn on my phone while walking.

Sure enough, Girls' Generation dominated the hot searches on the Korean Internet, and one of the hot searches made Xu Lin stop. After thinking twice, he hurried to the lounge and immediately called Lin Yuner.

beep...

The phone was not connected, Xu Lin paced back and forth anxiously, frowning, turned on the phone again, and looked at Hanwang.com.

News of the team's resignation is becoming more and more popular. Girls' Generation is not an ordinary group. Not only have they opened up the girl group market, they have also been recorded by the Blue House as the top group. They are a group full of glory.

Fans couldn't accept the sudden news of their withdrawal from the team, and that Weibo also caused the soul of the group to collapse in an instant.

[We are one, like sisters, like family.They used to say they were so close, but now what is this? The entertainment industry is really unbelievable! 】

[I hope I didn't wake up, why did Girls' Generation do this?Didn't you say you were going to keep going? 】

[Sone, let's unite, don't be led by the nose by the company, strongly appeal to initiate, boycott all related product activities of sm, until Jessica is punished for withdrawing from the team.This is a feasible approach with precedents! ! 】

【what】

【Even Shirley is protected and kept, but Jessica is sent away. What is the reason? 】

[Since it was displayed on Weibo, it must have been hacked.If it is true, it should be uploaded to the Korean SNS first, why upload it to the Chinese SNS? Also, the tone of voice is not Korean. 】

[If this kind of thing is made public, if the reporters make it public, I will never talk nonsense about you for the rest of my life]

[The gossip that just came out seems to be true, that is to say, Jessica left the group and other members agreed. 】

Frowning and flipping through the comments, Xu Lin became more and more anxious, his heart beating wildly. He wasn't worried about what would happen to the other members of Girls' Generation, he was only worried about that well-behaved girl.

Forced to calm down his head, he then downloaded Weibo and Tieba, ready to see the reaction of fans.

These days, the post bar is the main battlefield for star chasers, and all the things like sex are done in the post. After looking at Weibo, Xu Lin opened the post bar again, and the young time bar has really become a mess.

[Thinking about their relationship of at least 10 years, I don't believe it]

[It's all messed up now. I want to say that this matter is not operated by someone Quan. It is impossible for things to develop to the present. I just want to say to someone Quan: You fucking broke my dream! *****]

【urgent! ! !wait! ! 】

[The front foot renewed the contract for three years, and the back foot was kicked out of the team. Jin Yingmin also said that it was voluntary, heh, how funny! 】

[Jin Minying is owed a cut!Die with me! ! 】

After looking at the post bar for a few times, Xu Lin turned off his phone. The post was relatively neutral, and the only fans of Girls' Generation in the post bar began to attack each other in various ways, causing a lot of trouble.

Although the fans don't know the truth of the matter, it doesn't affect them to fight for the interests of their idols.

The more Xu Lin looked at it, the more painful his head became. About ten minutes later, the phone rang, and he answered it quickly and hurriedly asked:
"Yoona? Are you okay?"

"...Well." Lin Yun'er's hoarse voice came from the phone: "I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me."

"..."

Suddenly, Xu Lin didn't know what to say. Some things were personal issues between them. As an outsider, it was not easy for him to intervene, and he couldn't intervene. After thinking about it, he sighed.

"You are in China now, right. If you need anything, remember to call me. I have friends over there."

"Okay, thank you, Xu Lin."

There was a touch of emotion in the trembling voice.

"Then go ahead and talk about it when you come back."

"it is good."

With a beep, the phone hung up, and looking at the black screen of the phone, Xu Lin rubbed his temples and sighed.

Everyone was caught off guard by the sudden incident, that microblog was tantamount to breaking face with SM company, it was originally a trivial matter, but no one wanted it to develop like this in the end.

In fact, Xu Lin can understand the meaning of SM, it is nothing more than wanting to get greater benefits, and wants to intimidate the other party by withdrawing from the team, but he didn't expect them to die. Some fans' analysis is not unreasonable, and there must be someone behind the incident. From the perspective of emotion alone, it is impossible for her to say such words.

It is a fact that there are conflicts in the team, but their feelings are not false, they are nothing more than sowing discord, causing her to think wrongly at the wrong time, and there is a high probability that they act impulsively.

Xu Lin held the mobile phone, thought for a moment, picked up the mobile phone and called his father.

The call was quickly connected, and Xu Jinxin's heavy voice came out from the phone.

"Hello? What's wrong?"

"...Dad, what are you doing?" Xu Lin cut to the chase and said, "I have something to ask for your help."

"What can I do? I'm fishing with your mother. Just tell me what's going on. I haven't caught a single fish yet!"

Fishing is self-cultivation, but my father's temper is getting worse the more he fishes, probably because everyone around him can catch fish, but he can't catch fish, Xu Lin couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Ahem! Dad! Don't get me wrong, I didn't laugh at you, I just thought of something happy."

"Say something quickly! Hang up if you have nothing to do!"

"Uh! Well, that is, I made a girlfriend in Korea."

"..."

There was silence on the phone, and I could vaguely hear the sound of cengcengceng closing the club, and then Xu Lin heard...

"You got a girlfriend?!"

"Ah yes, that's what, my girlfriend has an event in China, and I can't go back now..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Jin Huishan.

"Hello? Son, I'm your mother. When did you date someone? Bring it back and show us."

"..." Xu Lin pursed his lips, covered his forehead and said, "Mom, don't worry, my dad is here. I have business with my dad."

"Just tell me, what's the matter?"

"As far as my partner has an event with us, I can't go back now. Something happened to her in the past few days, and I'm a little worried about her." Xu Lin said frankly, his heart beating uncontrollably.

To be honest, he didn't intend to tell his family about Lin Yun'er and himself so soon, and now there is really no way.

My parents would urge marriage every year, either urging him or Xu Kexin. Now that he has a girlfriend, I'm afraid this kind of thing will intensify. Thinking about it, I feel a headache.

After hearing Xu Lin's words that blushed so shyly, Jin Huishan's joyful voice followed.

"Oh, easy to say, what's your partner's name? Tell mom, I'll let your sister go and watch her, don't worry."

"Her name is Lin Yun'er."

"...The name sounds familiar." Jin Huishan didn't think too much, and said bluntly, "What does she do?"

"Uh... Idols, Girls' Generation, do you know? How can I tell you, they are singing and dancing stars."

"Star?! Why did you find a star?"

Well-informed people don't have any filters for celebrities, especially Xu Lin's family. To put it bluntly, their family doesn't think celebrities are noble, but they think they are just ordinary professions.

Whether it's a celebrity or an artist, it's okay to make money based on one's ability, but Kim Hye-sun is just surprised.

"You don't like the profession of being a star?"

"No, why do you miss your mother? People don't steal or grab money to eat, why don't I like it?"

"That……"

"I see. You send me the time and address. I'll ask your sister to check it out some other day. I'm sure nothing will happen."

"Okay mom!" Xu Lin felt relieved.

"What about you, when will you bring it back..."

"Hello? Hello? Mom? Ouch! Why is this signal like this!"

While talking, Xu Lin hung up the phone, slumped on the sofa and exhaled, with mixed feelings in his heart, he would be relieved if his old sister went, at least Lin Yuner would have an extra layer of protection.

Based on his understanding of Lin Yuner, this girl should be very sad at this time, but she will never show it.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door. After obtaining Xu Lin's permission, a staff member pushed the door in and said to him with a little respect: "Director Xu Lin, it's time for us to try on costumes."

"Ah... OK." Xu Lin stood up in response, and followed the staff member to the third floor of the company by taking the elevator.

Attending the Korean Film Festival, most of the costumes are made of black, white and gray, and his suit can't be worn at all.

No way, the expensive ones will also stand out!
