It wasn't until the end of the summer season, when the bad results were really in front of people, that people realized the problem.

Also at the end of August, the market began to denounce Xiaoxianrou.

It's better to denounce it than not to denounce it. At least the problem of the little fresh meat with no acting skills has been officially put on the table.

Big pomp, lack of dedication, too many demands, wooden fish brain, abuse of substitutes, etc.

Even when Zhang Yuanjun was hiding in the theater to perform, reporters caught him and asked him questions about Xiaoxianrou.

Zhang Yuanjun couldn't say that he didn't care about this issue, he could only say that he was not interested, because he had almost no interaction with that group of actors. Even though they were all in the same circle, they were basically untouchable.

To put it bluntly, whether they die or not, they will not hinder Zhang Yuanjun's filming.

So Zhang Yuanjun answered the reporter this way: "Believe in the audience, if you can fool them into watching two films, they will stop watching your third film."

The reporter did not intend to let Zhang Yuanjun fool him like this: "Have you ever met the kind of little fresh meat mentioned on the Internet on the set?"

"What kind?" Zhang Yuanjun rarely goes online recently and doesn't pay attention to a lot of information.

"There are those who don't memorize the lines and read the numbers, and there are those who make a big show of it."

"Yes." Zhang Yuanjun said no, which seemed too fake. "But it wasn't on my set. I went to visit the studio and saw it on a friend's set."

"How did you feel at that time?"

Zhang Yuanjun said: "I think it's quite strange. It turns out that people film movies like this. I've learned a lot." Zhang Yuanjun didn't follow the reporter's thinking and criticized this behavior.

The reporter simply made it clear: "Shouldn't this kind of behavior be criticized? What's more, they often receive very high salaries."

"Criticism is useless." Zhang Yuanjun did not express his emotions blindly. He seemed to have a very negative attitude towards the trend of young meat. "This batch has passed, and the next batch has come in. The market is also about survival of the fittest, and the audience's requirements for actors must be higher and higher. It’s getting higher and higher, don’t worry too much, we’ll see later.”

As Zhang Yuanjun said in "First Grade" last year, you can't expect that this circle will be full of old artists with both virtue and art. There are a large number of ordinary practitioners in any industry who "just make a living", and there are even many who are not A "bastard" who comes to make money.

This is also Zhang Yuanjun’s perception of the structural health of the entertainment industry.

They are all old artists, so no one pays them, and they cannot make hundreds of films every year. They are all bastards, and this industry is doomed.

Zhang Yuanjun's daily life now consists of three points and one line: home, studio, and theater.

"You really don't want to go to Venice?" Liu Yifei still felt that he should go.

"No," Zhang Yuanjun was massaging her feet. Liu Yifei had been a little sore recently, and the doctor asked him to massage Liu Yifei's feet or waist every one or two days. "There are performances in my theater every day. For the play "Hypnosis", I It was a great performance.”

"You don't pay enough attention to Venice." Liu Yifei kicked her husband.

Zhang Yuanjun said: "Director Gu Changwei and Fan Bingbing are both there, and they both have enough appearances. But you, who won the Best Actress last year and was shortlisted for Horizon this year, don't even go to cheer for others."

Liu Yifei patted her already swollen belly: "How can I get there like this?"

"Just talk, I'm still in the mood." Zhang Yuanjun finished squeezing his wife's feet and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

The two were lying together. Zhang Yuanjun wanted to sleep after reading for a while, but Liu Yifei, who was usually sleepy, couldn't fall asleep now.

"Husband." Liu Yifei called.

"Huh?" Zhang Yuanjun closed his eyes.

Liu Yifei lay down and touched her husband's thigh with her hand under the quilt: "You have worked hard these past few months."

"You go to bed early and take care of her in peace, so I won't have to work hard." Zhang Yuanjun took out his wife's hand from under the quilt, put it to his mouth and kissed it.

Liu Yifei said: "The doctor said that the child is now stable and OK."

"What's okay?" Zhang Yuanjun didn't understand, but after taking a look at his wife's expression, he immediately understood, "Don't make trouble."

"I'm a woman and I'm not afraid. Let's be quiet. It'll be fine." Liu Yifei refused. "I agreed to you doing that in the past few months, but now you're awkward when you want to return to normal." His wife is pregnant In the past few months of instability, Zhang Yuanjun has indeed had a hard time, and it would be a lie to say that he doesn't want to do it now.

Zhang Yuanjun laughed evilly, and Liu Yifei also laughed.

The two of them are harmonious and happy, without much writing.

The next morning, Liu Yifei was radiant with joy. She didn't let the nanny do anything and made breakfast for Zhang Yuanjun herself.

…………

Two movies, "Cold War 2" and "Dangerous City", have been released in the summer season, giving Peng Yuyan enough exposure. Although one film received good reviews at the box office and the other was a hit on the street, overall, he benefited greatly.

"Cold War 2" was successful, and he benefited from it as an important supporting role; "Dangerous City" failed, so what does his supporting role have to do with it!

He also has "Operation Mekong" to be released during the National Day holiday.

It stands to reason that this is when he is at his peak, and that's about it. Apart from being blocked from the accounts of a few big fans and station ladies, he has been very comfortable in the past two months.

But he has also encountered some troubles recently, mainly because the follow-up resource negotiations did not go smoothly.

I thought that with the results of "Cold War 2", I could sign more endorsements and receive more scripts, but currently, "Cold War 2" only increased his fame, but did not convert this fame into actual resources.

Many times when I proactively contact the crew, the other party will most likely say something like this: "We handed the script to Zhang Yuanjun and see if he picks it up. If he doesn't pick it up, we'll talk about it."

There have been at least five scripts in the past two years. He wanted to act but had to be ranked behind Zhang Yuanjun.

The same goes for endorsements. Peng Yuyan's team was crazy about signing him for high-end brands, but the brand thought he was too small and had poor performance. They would rather sign Zhang Yuanjun at a high price than Peng Yuyan, who took the initiative to lower the price.

He is also an actor born in the 80s. He was also nominated for the Golden Horse Best Newcomer that year, and Zhang Yuanjun beat him to the punch.

Oh no, a lot of heads.

In fact, you don’t need to think too much. All the actors born in the 80s, and even the actors born in the 70s in their prime, were overshadowed by Zhang Yuanjun.

What are you comparing to him?

But the market is vast, and it is impossible for Zhang Yuanjun to act in all the roles by himself. There are many opportunities for everyone.

However, everyone knows what Wandao does.

The trouble that Peng Yuyan's team has encountered recently is that the resource negotiations are extremely unsatisfactory.

Airbnb is the world's largest homestay rental community. It entered the Chinese market this year and wanted to find a spokesperson.

Homestay rental is an unpopular category, and not many people compete with it. Coupled with the support of Bay Island Capital, Airbnb has basically confirmed it.

But something unexpected happened last week. Airbnb's US headquarters rejected the choice of spokesperson submitted by the Chinese company. The US headquarters said that they would prefer to choose "a real backpacker" rather than "an actor to endorse our services."

At the same time, the endorsement deal with Blue Factory Mobile Phones also fell apart. Blue Factory is about to release their new product X9 in two months. Their previous spokesperson was Song Joong-ki. Due to the THAAD incident, Song was destined to be out of business. Peng's team wanted to take the opportunity to replace it. The talks were almost the same, but they were replaced by Blue Factory. The factory was kicked out.

It is said that because of the THAAD incident, the company is very wary of the impact of external emergencies on its spokespersons.

Peng is from Wandao. If something happens one day or he says a word or two wrong, the company will be at great risk.

The person in charge of Blue Factory said: "We need to reconsider it."

After losing two endorsements in a row and losing over 5000 million, Peng didn't even know what he had done wrong.

To make matters worse, the crew of "Riding the Wind and Waves", which will start filming next month, also kicked him out!

The remuneration and schedule have all been negotiated. Peng Yuyan has memorized the script and has agreed to sign the contract when he joins the cast next week!
This was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue.
