From a professional villain to an all-around superstar

Chapter 149: The director’s bonus, preparing the crew to start shooting

Public opinion continues to ferment.

Although there are many fans who support Ye Chen, compared to the netizens on the Internet, they seem to be a little weak.

They can't change the overall situation at all, and their voices are like falling into the sea, and they are not recognized by netizens at all.

Instead, many fans got into trouble because of it.

Many netizens of Ye Chen were called crazy fans, and even cursed by some vicious netizens.

Such a public opinion environment has a great impact on Ye Chen.

In just half a day, Ye Chen has lost more than 5000 million fans, and the number is still increasing.

At this time, Xiaomeng couldn't sit still again.

"It's over. If this continues, we will really lose our fans. Brother Ye, please think of a solution quickly."

Ye Chen was speechless.

As a party involved, Ye Chen didn't feel anything about the storm of public opinion at all.

Even though netizens scolded him, calling him arrogant and viciously attacking his seniors, he turned a deaf ear.

Even some remarks that confuse right and wrong, Ye Chen laughed it off.

Facing Chen Kai, Teng Jian and several directors' vicious voices, Ye Chen remained calm.

Because Ye Chen had already expected everything.

However, now Ye Chen has no time to comfort Li Xiaomeng, because Ye Chen's phone keeps ringing.

Directors and actors who had worked with Ye Chen before called him one after another to comfort Ye Chen.

Ye Chen also smiled and said that his mentality was very good and he was not affected in any way.

Friends thought Ye Chen was trying to comfort himself, after all, facing such a storm of public opinion, who can bear it, and who can remain indifferent.

But they really can't help with this kind of thing.

Ye Chen's transformation into a comedian has been officially announced on Weibo. The future is unknown. Although many people tried to persuade Ye Chen to give up his transformation, Ye Chen politely refused.

Yang Mi and Xiao Di even went to Ye Chen specifically to persuade him to slowly make a few more movies and choose the appropriate time to transform.

But Ye Chen still decisively refused.

Yang Mi and Xiao Di were really worried about Ye Chen.

Because the public opinion storm is too fierce.

Even if Ye Chen is not paying attention, he may be involved in it forever.

At Yang Mi's house, after eating, several people chatted.

"Chenchen, I advise you to settle down first and leave the comedy filming behind. I helped you choose a few scripts. They are all villains in big productions. The cast is also very strong. The management has said that as long as you participate I will fully support you."

Ye Chen shook his head: "Miss Mi, thank you. In fact, Director Chen is right. I am still young, so even if I fail, I still have a chance. And I don't think I will fail. I am very confident in this movie." , it will definitely catch fire."

Yang Mi sighed helplessly: "You are such a stubborn donkey."

In the past few days, Yang Mi and Xiao Di tried to persuade Ye Chen, but they also heard Ye Chen's persistence.

They had already said what needed to be said, but Ye Chen insisted on going his own way, and they could only pray that, just as Ye Chen said, Ye Chen could turn the tide with his strength.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen also took a deep breath.

It seems that I really think things are too simple.

In fact, many of what Yang Mi and Xiao Di said were very reasonable, including what some friends said when they were comforting themselves, which also made Ye Chen feel that he did take the matter of transformation a little bit for granted.

To be precise, the shamelessness of these people who added insult to injury far exceeded Ye Chen's expectation.

But the more this happens, the less Ye Chen intends to compromise.

Don't you look down on me?
Aren’t you calling my movie rubbish?

I just want to make a popular movie and slap you in the face.

This is Ye Chen.

The clay figurine still has a temper, not to mention Ye Chen is not a good-tempered person.

Finally, Ye Chen spoke out on Weibo.

"Friends, thank you for your support, thank you for your encouragement. What I want to tell you is that in 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty. When I come back with a new film, I will be your pride. 》

Without too much explanation, the content of Weibo is very simple.

I have confidence in myself. This is Ye Chen's response to public opinion.

After Ye Chen posted this Weibo, he ignored the reactions on the Internet.

Because Ye Chen knew that before the movie was filmed and released, all his explanations would be feeble.

Only by slapping them in the face with strength can those people shut up.

So Ye Chen's Weibo is actually an explanation from Ye Chen to fans who like him.

Or a promise.

The next day, Ye Chen began to form the crew.

Ye Chen found a few familiar directors, but none of them had a schedule.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Chen frowned.

After looking at the popularity value, after this public opinion storm, what made Ye Chen happiest was the popularity value.

Now Ye Chen's popularity has reached [-] million.

Ye Chen chose to draw ten consecutive draws from the god-level treasure chest.

All ten turned out to be empty.

Ye Chen frowned and continued to draw the lottery.

Still empty.

Damn it, my luck has been a bit bad recently!

Ye Chen's stubborn temper came up.

Still drawing ten consecutive god-level treasure chests...

When the popularity level was still [-] million, Ye Chen finally heard the long-lost metal sound.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the director master skill! 】

Master director?

Ye Chen was ecstatic in his heart.

In fact, the reason why he chose the lottery was to try to see if he could get skills similar to directing.

After all, Marven has a redemption card that can be redeemed for ten scripts.

Ye Chen can choose to shoot with the script.

But when looking for someone else, you need to check the schedule, and whether it fits your own ideas is a problem.

So, it’s better to be the director yourself.

But the lack of professional knowledge is a problem for Ye Chen.

Now, countless directors' knowledge and film shooting techniques appeared in Ye Chen's mind.

Apart from anything else, his professional quality is not even inferior to directors such as Zhang Mou, Chen Desen, and Zheng Baorui.

With the skills of a master director, Ye Chen can finally let go.

But when Yang Mi and Xiao Di heard that Ye Chen was going to make his own movie, they felt that Ye Chen was a little distracted.

It is true that some actors have switched careers to become directors, but that requires accumulation.

Ye Chen used to be a walk-on actor without any education in film and television. Can he be a director?
However, they knew Ye Chen's character and after a few words of advice, they could only choose to support him silently.

But for the prospect of this movie, not only the outside world has no confidence, but even Yang Mi and Xiao Di are beating drums in their hearts.

It wasn't because they were worried about losing money, but because they didn't want to see Ye Chen fail and be hit.

Next, Ye Chen started looking for a director.

The two worlds are parallel, so Ye Chen knows the actor's name well.

He doesn't need to innovate, he just needs to copy the actors who originally starred in "Charlotte".

Ma Li, Ellen, Yin Zheng... and other actors, Ye Chen contacted them again.

These people were very surprised to receive the call.

Because unlike their previous lives, in this world, they are all unknown actors.

Although they knew that Ye Chen was currently involved in a public controversy, they still readily accepted the invitation.

Because they know that just the five movies Ye Chen has acted in before are enough for Ye Chen to have a place in the entertainment industry.

Even if Ye Chen's comedy fails, and Ye Chen continues to reprise his role as a villain, he will still be sought after by capital and loved by movie fans.

In their eyes, this kind of person is a boss-level existence.

Although they felt that Ye Chen was going to switch to acting in comedy, and he also wrote and directed it himself, so it was not very reliable for him to act in it himself.

But how could they miss such an opportunity.

So basically everyone agreed to come for the interview.

of course there are exceptions.

Because one of the actors rejected Ye Chen's invitation.

This actor was Wang Zhi who Ye Chen was going to invite to play Qiu Ya.

Ye Chen made a phone call to report to his family and expressed his intention to invite, but Wang Zhi's cold voice came from the other side.

"Sorry, I don't have a schedule."

"Mr. Ye, I advise you not to switch to comedy movies at will. My friends around me said that you have no talent for comedy."

"You are obviously so good at acting as a villain. Why do you touch areas that you are not good at? Aren't you killing the goose that lays the goose to get the egg?"

"Okay, Mr. Ye, this is my suggestion to you. Don't think I'm being harsh with my words. I'm doing this for your own good. You know, think about it for yourself. Well, that's all. I'm hanging up."

Then, a busy signal came from the phone.

Ye Chen was already stupid.

From the beginning to the end, Ye Chen just announced his family status.

Then there was Wang Zhi's preaching together.

Ye Chen couldn't even figure out whether it was me or you who were drifting away.

Even though Ye Chen was a human being in the second life, he was a little confused by Wang Zhi's manipulation.

But Ye Chen quickly figured it out. It was obvious that the other party was afraid of being implicated by him.

As for?
Moreover, those words "I am doing this all for your own good" made Ye Chen almost vomit blood.

Because nine out of ten people who say this kind of thing expect you to be even worse.

However, Ye Chen did not appreciate this matter.

A self-righteous actress who likes to pretend to be smart.

Wang Zhi now just plays a few subpar female supporting roles.

Even just a third-tier actor.

Ye Chen was very curious, where did the other party get his confidence and courage, and he preached to himself.

Since Wang Zhi didn't want to play Qiu Ya, Ye Chen quickly thought of another person.

Ye Chen dug out a name from his address book and typed it.

The phone was connected, and a clear voice came from inside: "Oh, how come the big star has time to call me?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Sister, do you have time to have a meal?"

On the other side of the phone, Gai Yuexi was a little confused.

This guy actually invited me to dinner?
The last time she filmed "Big Shot" Gai Yuexi was attracted by Ye Chen's unique charm.

Especially knowing that Ye Chen has donated so much to Hope Primary School, I feel that Ye Chen is a responsible man.

Even this time when Ye Chen was caught in a storm of public opinion, she asked a friend to do something to help Ye Chen.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chen took the initiative to contact him.

After all, Ye Chen is now a first-line male star, and his status and status are not in the same position as himself.

She never expected that this man would take the initiative to call her.

In fact, these days, Ye Chen's figure is in Gai Yuexi's mind. When he closes his eyes, Ye Chen's picture will appear in his mind.

It's just that she didn't dare to think about it.

Even knowing that Ye Chen was involved in a public controversy, he only sent a WeChat message after thinking about it.

She didn't expect that the man she longed for would take the initiative to ask her out for dinner.

It was almost like a dream.

Gai Yuexi said: "Of course I'm free, when?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "That's right, you should know that I am filming a comedy movie "Charlotte's Trouble". Now all the funds have been secured and I am in the casting stage."

"There is a role that I think you can fill, so I would like to treat you to a meal and talk about this role."

Ye Chen roughly told what happened.

Gai Yuexi was a little disappointed, but also felt very happy.

He was disappointed because it was business for Ye Chen to call him to invite him to dinner. Surprisingly, with such an opportunity, Ye Chen could think of her.

It shows that Ye Chen does not regard himself as an outsider, but as a true friend.

Ye Chen nodded.

Then both men fell into silence.

The phone was not hung up. Ye Chen felt that since he was a man, it was inappropriate to hang up the phone first, while Gai Yuexi was reluctant to hang up. After all, the guy on the other side was the boy she longed for.

Gai Yuexi felt that even hearing the breathing of the man opposite him would be a blessing to her.

Finally, after chatting for a few more words, Ye Chen hung up the phone first.

After all, he still has to contact other actors and is too busy now.

After hanging up the phone, Gai Yuexi took a deep breath, picked up the phone and made a call.

"Old classmate, when will the news materials I gave you be available for reporting?"

Gai Yuexi's old classmate is a reporter from Yangshi. What she provided to her classmates was the news about Ye Chen's donation to Hope Primary School.

Although this matter has been reported by the media, it was only a short press release, and it was from the media, so it had little impact.

But this time, Gai Yuexi contacted the authorities.

As long as there is an official report, those people with bad moral character can keep their mouths shut.

This was one of the few things she could do for Ye Chen.

Although Ye Chen said not to let her publicize these things to the outside world, Gai Yuexi felt that this was unfair to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen has done so much for society, why should these people scold him?

"Oh, we have sent reporters down, and the film is already being produced. The leader attaches great importance to it and wants to report it properly."

"Thank you so much. I'll treat you to dinner later."

After hanging up the phone, Gai Yuexi let out a sigh of relief.

After Ye Chen contacted the actor, Yang Mi introduced him to a studio that was responsible for the film's photography, sound recording, prop artist, makeup artist, etc. This team had also worked with Yang Mi many times and was very professional.

As long as the money is available, these staff members will be fine.

They don't care what Ye Chen's situation is now. As long as Ye Chen gives him money, they will work.

Therefore, the negotiation between Ye Chen and the studio was resolved in the most enjoyable afternoon.

Soon, Ye Chen completed the interview in a hotel.

Gai Yuexi is also here, and she dressed up specially today.

Wearing a small and fresh long dress, she is very beautiful. The actors Ai Lun and Yin Zheng's eyes widened when they saw it.

"Yue Xi, long time no see."

When Gai Yuexi saw Ye Chen, she also showed a sweet smile: "Long time no see."

Ye Chen looked at Gai Yuexi and his eyes lit up when he saw the other person's fresh look.
