Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 289
Zhang Yuanjun flew to Jinling with his assistant early the next morning. The filming of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" has not been completed yet, so he had to go back to make up for the filming.

Zhang Yuanjun won the Best Actor at Cannes, and both the Film Academy and People's Art Theater received good news - after all, Zhang Yuanjun thanked the Film Academy and People's Art Theater for their training in front of the whole world.

But what’s more difficult to deal with is human art.

There will be a job evaluation in the second half of the year. Zhang Yuanjun was originally rated as a third-level actor, but now it’s over and he’s a Cannes Best Actor. How do you evaluate it?
The other two Cannes best actors in the Chinese film industry, Ge You and Tony Leung Chaowei, are both national first-class actors. How can I pay Zhang Yuanjun?
For a first-rate actor, he is too young and not qualified enough to convince the public.

Isn't it clear that giving someone a third-level or second-level award is bullying someone? The 24-year-old Cannes Best Actor, No. 1 among the younger generation, are you not even going to give him a first-level actor?

Renyi was in trouble, and the film academy took advantage of the situation, demanding that Renyi release him and transfer Zhang Yuanjun's files and connections back to the academy.

Ge You is an actor from the ACFTU Art Troupe, Tony Leung is an actor from Hong Kong, and Zhang Yuanjun was born in a film school. Speaking of which, this Cannes Best Actor trophy is due to the film school.

As long as Zhang Yuanjun is transferred back to the Film Academy, the academy is very willing and can also give Zhang Yuanjun a first-class actor spot.

I definitely won’t do it in human arts.

The 24-year-old Cannes Best Actor is a treasure in any country, so why should people and artists let him go?

Director Zhang Heping gritted his teeth and decided to give Zhang Yuanjun a first-class actor slot at a regular meeting of the theater leadership.

"If you have made outstanding contributions, I can afford it for a first-class actor."

No one opposed this decision, but no one supported it either.

Zhang Yuanjun's rating is too embarrassing. With the Cannes Best Actor beside him, it is not an exaggeration to give him a first-class actor, but he is only 24 years old, which is too young.

It would be even more inappropriate not to give it.

"He should get this first-class actor." After a long time, Pu Cunxin was the first to express his opinion, "Xiao Zhang can endure hardships, whether he acted well in "Camel Xiangzi" or "White Deer Plain", it can be seen at the box office of the tour and the reputation theater. "And with this Cannes Best Actor," Pu Cunxin smiled, "It would be really inappropriate not to give it to him. He even thanked the theater when he accepted the award."

"That's it. When the professional titles are evaluated in the second half of the year, you will make a list and I will sign. The ministry should approve it."

Zhang Yuanjun came to the crew of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" and received a very grand welcome.

Han Sanping deliberately stopped working: "I also said that it will take two days for you to return to the set."

"How dare you delay," Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile, "I will rush to Jinling after resting for one night in the capital."

While the crew members welcomed and congratulated Zhang Yuanjun, they all gritted their teeth at Zhang Yuanjun for winning the fairy sister, and "hated" him like crazy.

"There's nothing you can do about it," Zhang Yuanjun said. "You can only watch the relationship between classmates for four years."

After the simple welcome ceremony, Zhang Yuanjun went to put on makeup and change clothes.

It turns out that fans are strangely and incredibly powerful.

Even Zhang Yuanjun's appointment as emperor at the age of 24 failed to overshadow the negative impact of his premature love.

Nearly 2 people quit Zhang Yuanjun’s official fan group within two days.

The home page of the official forum is full of posts about disloyalty, opposition, and rejection.

Zhang Yuanjun Tieba and two small bar owners announced that they would quit being fans.

This is especially true among Liu Yifei's fan groups. The webmasters of major fairy fan forums, such as Mangkao Concubine and Swan Castle, have a direct attitude and pinned posts to lose fans; Liu Yifei's Chinese website canceled 1 users overnight; Xianju lost fans the most Awesome, after Liu Yifei generously announced that she was "above and aboveboard" at the airport, Xianju fans wrote more than 2000 pages of posts to express their opposition to Liu Yifei's relationship.

The voices of some rational fans cannot make any waves in this storm.

The anti-fans scandal intensified, and some fans even went to Guohua and Renyi to hold banners and signs opposing their relationship.

Another impact of losing fans is the two's business and film contract resources.

Yili has internally decided not to renew Liu Yifei's contract.

A women's clothing brand that Liu Yifei previously endorsed also decided not to renew her contract.

Basically all the endorsements and business deals that Liu Yifei was talking about were gone.Zhang Yuanjun's situation is a little better here. He doesn't have many endorsements, and he can't run far.

The most valuable thing about him is the endorsement of Louis Vuitton, and he is now the brand ambassador of Louis Vuitton.

After winning the Best Actor, Louis Vuitton decided to upgrade him. The specific level to which he will be upgraded is still being discussed by both parties.

Louis Vuitton doesn't care at all whether Zhang Yuanjun is in love or not.

Because Zhang Yuanjun’s endorsement was negotiated with Louis Vuitton’s French headquarters, the Chinese market cannot make the decision.

Generally speaking, the Chinese branch of such top luxury brands is only responsible for marketing and sales, and the Chinese market has no involvement in the matter of spokespersons.

But Zhang Yuanjun's business and film appointments were very bad.

Half of the basically negotiated summer activities were lost, resulting in a loss of more than [-] million.

The Anti-Japanese War movie on Mango Channel also started to become ambiguous.

There is no sound from Shi Nansheng's side. The script for the sequel to "New Dragon Inn" is still being worked on, and nothing has been confirmed yet.

However, there are also crews who want to fish in troubled waters, and want to take advantage of this turmoil to lower Zhang Yuanjun's price and hire him to star.

But Zhang Yuanjun’s team is very strong. The best actor in Cannes is the best actor in Cannes, and he will never reduce his salary even if he wants to work or not.

In this turmoil, the niches competing with Zhang and Liu benefited a lot.

When the brand was ambiguous with the two, they wanted to tap their resources.

For example, Prada, which wants to promote rejuvenation, had previously contacted Liu Yifei. After the relationship was exposed, a senior executive of the actress's company took the initiative to contact the head of Prada China's marketing and wanted to promote his artist.

Tang Ren has made no secret of it. During the low period when Liu Yifei officially announced her relationship, he clearly used the banner of "Little Liu Yifei" and recommended Liu Shishi to the media.

Rong Xinda took the initiative to contact Mango Channel and wanted to poach the Anti-Japanese War film.

After Zhang Yuanjun filmed for two days on the set of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", Penguin announced the end of the selection of "New Generation Entertainment Stars born in the 2s".

Officially launched the "Four Small Students" and "Four Xiaohuadan".

Among them, the four major students are: Lin Shen, Hu Ge, Zhu Yuchen and Zhang Junning; the four minor stars are: Yang Mi, Wang Luodan, Huang Shengyi and Liu Shishi.

Zhang and Liu withdrew from the selection as they wished, but the exit process was a bit disgraceful.

However, Zhang Yuanjun's team is not used to being beaten passively.

As soon as June entered, the studio launched a publicity offensive and built momentum for Zhang Yuanjun on Weibo.

For example, on Children's Day, the studio distributed materials donated by Zhang Yuanjun to Hope Primary School.

"After the earthquake, Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei actively participated in earthquake relief. Although they were unable to enter the front line, the Hope Primary School they donated to build was finally approved to officially start construction one year after the earthquake."

The accompanying picture is a photo of the two visiting children in the disaster area, as well as the official document of the Hope Primary School’s approval.

"I wish the children a happy Children's Day and hope you can study better in the new school."

This trick worked quite well, at least it brought back a certain reputation for the two of them.

On the third day after June [-]st, the studio released the finalized poster for "Transcendence":
"See you in the theater on July 7rd for "Transcendence"."

Liu Yifei also posted a mysterious poster on her Weibo. The poster showed a spinning top, with the following text:

"See you tomorrow."
