This top guy only treats celebrities as his job

Chapter 115: Game formation, variety show, hypocrisy (guaranteed, please vote for me)

It has only been 2024 days since the beginning of 19. So far, things are going well. Everyone is still giving them face, and neither female artists nor male artists have suffered any house collapse for the time being.

During this period, Lin Xing was in a hurry every time he came to the Imperial Capital. Whether he was attending the launch press conference of "The Big Brother" or the celebration banquet of "The Big Brother", he basically had no time to meet other people.

Think about it, the last time I met Guan Peng was during the recording of the final episode of "Farming".

It’s been a long time.

Since "Farming" ended, although Guan Peng has not taken on any more film and television dramas, he has participated in two variety shows, one is "Loss of Weight" and the other is the slow variety show "Following the Dream".

Guan Peng performed well in these two variety shows. Stars who do variety shows will either gain fans or be scolded.

Guan Peng has a very high emotional intelligence, and he has a somewhat carefree personality, so he continues to maintain his popularity with these two variety shows.

In addition, this year his TV series "Like Mom, Like Dad" will be launched.

Guan Peng originally participated in this film in a special capacity, but Zheng Zhou kept adding more roles and more roles, and finally became the second male lead.

Facts have proven that a good actor can seize and shine whenever you give him the slightest chance.

Just like in a play, even if they only have a few scenes, they can make an impression.

Before "Like Mom, Like Dad" started airing, everyone was worried that Guan Peng and Ning Shu wouldn't match up. After all, although the two are about the same age, Ning Shu still looks like a mature woman, while Guan Peng already looks like a greasy uncle.

And guess what? ?
Guan Peng plays a somewhat successful businessman in the play. This role itself requires a bit of greasiness, but Guan Peng also shows the versatility of this role.

He is lustful, but he is really afraid of his wife if he is afraid of his wife. He really loves his daughter if he loves his daughter. Occasionally he tries to act cool in front of his brothers but he is often slapped in the face.

The audience actually liked this character very much.

Because the domineering president is too far away from the audience, Guan Peng plays a down-to-earth ordinary person, a little middle-aged and greasy but not too much. He has the pressure of middle-aged people and also plays the helplessness of middle-aged people.

Even if you are already a successful businessman, there are still some things you can't do about, such as your children's education.

If anyone else had played this role, it might have been annoying to the audience, but Guan Peng actually performed it with a sense of joy.

As for Ning Shu, she seemed a bit out of place.

She is a movie queen and a movie star. After all, making movies and TV series are different.

Originally, everyone was looking forward to Ning Shu, but they were disappointed.

To describe it in one sentence, a fairy descends to earth and loses her aura.

As for Zheng Zhou, Tang Yu and others, they all performed normally.

So Guan Peng, the most outstanding one, became the biggest winner of the drama "Learn From Dad, Like Mom".

After all, Zheng Zhou, Tang Yu, and Ning Shu are top-notch actors, but Guan Peng is different. Before this drama, he had not had the chance to act for a long time, and he had been out of date for a long time.

Without the sudden breakout of "Farming", Guan Peng would not have been able to participate in "Learn From Dad, Like Mom".

Even if he and Zheng Zhou were friends, it would be of no use, because as the old saying goes, friends in the entertainment industry are often just the icing on the cake. If you don't add insult to injury, you can just have fun secretly. How can you help someone in need?
But when he broke out of the industry because of "Farming", Zheng Zhou was still willing to give him a hand.

Needless to say now, Guan Peng's popularity has increased a lot.

During the previous press conference for the release of "Anti-Gangster", Guan Peng wanted to sit down with Lin Xing.

Later, Guan Peng also asked Lin Xing to sit down with him during the celebration party of "The Big Brother", but Lin Xing was always busy with "Portrait of a Murderer", so he naturally missed it again.

Today, Lin Xing could not delay any longer.

Some friendships require contact and movement, even if they are friends.

If you invite a friend to dinner and the friend says he is not available three times in a row, then there is no need to invite him again, because a true friend will invite you back.

What's more, Kong Ming only invited him three times.

Therefore, yesterday when "Portrait of a Murderer" was wrapping up, Lin Xing called Guan Peng. It was Lin Xing who took the initiative to ask Guan Peng out. Guan Peng asked him out several times before, but he was unavailable.

Guan Peng seemed very happy when he heard that Lin Xing called him just after finishing the project and even before returning to the imperial capital.

So I simply made an appointment at the 'Yuzhou Hot Pot Restaurant' tonight.

This hot pot restaurant is opened by Zheng Zhou, and its name comes from Zheng Zhou's 'Zhou' and Li Xinyu's 'Yu'.

This Li Xinyu is Zheng Zhou's wife. She was once a first-line actress, but she quit the entertainment industry after marrying Zheng Zhou, and An Xin worked as a housekeeper.

Guan Peng had mentioned before that tonight's meal included Zheng Zhou and several others, all of whom were from the circle.

"Is it surprising??"

When Lin Xing came to the private room, he was a little confused when he saw Ren Yi hiding in sunglasses. Especially when Ren Yi took off his glasses and looked at Lin Xing to ask if he was surprised, Lin Xing couldn't help but smile.

At this age, why are you still doing this?

"Brother Yi, this is really surprising."

Lin Xing said with a smile: "Brother Guan just told me that there is Teacher Zheng and several other people in the circle, but he did not say that there is you."

Ren Yi laughed loudly: "I specifically told Lao Guan not to tell you. I didn't drink enough with you at the last celebration banquet. Let's drink alone tonight."

"No, Brother Yi, you'd better ask Brother Kong to drink. I really can't."

Lin Xing was so drunk by Ren Yi at the last celebration party that he almost vomited. The most important thing was that Ren Yi was fine when he didn't drink. But when he drank, he looked a little crazy.

"Lao Kong, let's forget it."

Ren Yi shook his head slightly, but he didn't say much.

"Come on, Ah Xing, I don't need to introduce these three to you, Dahui, Ale, Xiaomi..."

Ren Yi introduced the other three people in the private room one by one.

Lu Hui.

Zhou Le.

Minnie.

These three people are currently active in major variety shows. Among them, Lu Hui was the youngest actor and the most potential TV star before, but he suddenly became indulgent since 8 years ago.

I made two movies with high box office but low reputation, and a TV series that was scolded as bloody, which almost consumed my popularity, and then I started to become a variety show star.

As for Zhou Le, he is considered a young artist. He has acted in several dramas before, but they were all bad. Later, he just acted in variety shows, and he gained quite a lot of popularity through variety shows.

Minnie, she is the leading lady of Tan Province TV.

"Axing, long time no see."

Minnie looked at Lin Xing and said with a smile.

"Sister Ni, how come you are getting younger and younger after all these years??"

Lin Xing looked at Minnie and said with a smile: "I thought I would meet you when I participated in "Follow the Stars to Poverty Alleviation" before, but I heard from Teacher Shen that you are preparing a new program..."

Minnie was the host of the show "Swap Life" produced by Feng Gang 16 years ago, so Lin Xing knew Minnie from that time.

But unlike Minnie, Lin Xing, as a member of [Xing Yao Hai], gradually faded away after [Xing Yao Hai] disbanded. He stayed quiet for ten years before becoming famous last year.

As for Minnie, she had no career lows.

She has been at Tan Provincial TV for 16 years, and now she is firmly in the position of the first sister.

"Axing, I haven't seen you talk to me for so many years and you are still so popular."

Minnie listened to Lin Xing's words and said with a smile: "At that time, I had been preparing for my new program [One Day Trip with Mi]. In a few days, Ah Xing, you should be free to record an episode."

Lin Xing smiled and said, "Okay." "Then it's settled, I'll make a date with you later."

Minnie said with a chuckle.

Lin Xing is still quite popular now, so he needs to use it quickly.

Minnie's "One Day Trip with Mi" is also an interview variety show, but it is an outdoor interview. It mainly interviews and follows the guests over the course of a day.

She only interviews people who are popular, influential, and topical.

If it were before, Minnie would have disdained to talk to Lin Xing, but now, although Lin Xing is far from as popular as he was at the end of "The Big Deal", it is enough.

There are topics, there is traffic, and it is very handsome.

Isn't this the most suitable interview subject for me? ?
"No, Axing, you'd better not join Minnie's show. She only digs holes for others..."

Ren Yi mercilessly broke the news and said: "I have never seen a popular artist who doesn't get scolded on his show. If you don't believe it, ask A Le."

With that said, Ren Yi kicked the ball to Zhou Le.

Zhou Le smiled honestly: "Brother Yi, please let me go."

"Ren Yi, you have to speak conscientiously. You can't be biased against all interview variety shows just because you got scolded for having sex with Zhao Fang..."

Minnie said unhappily: "Brother Hui, do you think so?"

"Actually, Minnie's interview variety show is quite comfortable."

Lu Hui smiled and said something fair.

"look……"

Minnie said and turned to look at Lin Xing and said: "Brother Hui is quite fair."

While talking, Zheng Zhou pushed the door open and walked in: "Axing, we meet again."

"Hello, Teacher Zheng."

Lin Xing said to Zheng Zhou.

Zheng Zhou pretended to be angry and said: "Didn't I tell you not to call me teacher in private? If you ask them all to call me teacher, are you alienating me?"

Lin Xing said hurriedly: "Of course not."

"Then call me Brother Zhou."

Zheng Zhou said and sat down: "Everyone, sit down and let's chat while eating."

Today's game is obviously dominated by Zheng Zhou.

"Axing, the thing is like this. I have always wanted to sit down with you, whether it was your original visit or Zha Lang's promotion of our drama later..."

Zheng Zhou smiled and said to Lin Xing: "I want to say thank you."

"Brother Zhou, just now you said not to let me get divorced from you. Didn't you also mean to get divorced from me?"

Lin Xing said slightly jokingly.

"No, I said that you are doing this, is it true?"

Ren Yi directly intervened and said: "Axing, we are actually planning to record a variety show recently, and then we are thinking of inviting you to record two episodes..."

It's obvious that Ren Yi likes to be straightforward.

"Ren Yi is right."

Although Zheng Zhou still wanted to lay the groundwork, since Ren Yi had already said it, he simply said to Lin Xing: "Our variety show is a slow variety show, an outdoor reality show. Nowadays, the audience no longer likes to watch competitive variety shows. , it’s a popular variety show. What everyone likes is lying down, which is a pleasant relaxation..."

After listening to Zheng Zhou's idea, Lin Xing roughly understood it.

To put it bluntly, the theme is still to escape the city and enjoy being with nature.

This kind of variety show is also a kind of enjoyment for actors, because there is no need to do tasks, and there is no need to work hard to do it. Sometimes they even have to record over and over again, just for one wonderful shot.

Reality shows, reality shows, the focus is still on the 'show'.

So the variety show must have a script, but Zheng Zhou thought that each episode only needs one theme, and the rest can be completely free for the actors to play freely.

As a result, the requirements for actors will be higher.

Therefore, Zheng Zhou, the resident guest of this variety show, invited Guan Peng, Lu Hui, Zhou Le, and Minnie. Plus himself, there are a total of 4 permanent guests.

At the same time, several more guests will be invited in each issue.

The guests in the first two issues were Ren Yi and Lin Xing. In addition to these two, there were several others.

It is impossible for Ren Yi to be a permanent guest. He doesn't want to be too exposed in the variety show. He still has his own pursuits, but he has no problem coming to the variety show to have fun with everyone and record two episodes.

Then, Ren Yi recommended Lin Xing. After "Sweeping Out", Ren Yi really felt that Lin Xing was good, he could endure hardship, was willing to learn, and had high talent.

Is this really illiterate? ?
At that time, Ren Yi felt that what had happened to Lin Xing was that so many people were slandering him.

What's more, when filming "The Big Brother", Lin Xing asked Ren Yi for advice every day, and the relationship between the two naturally improved by leaps and bounds.

This time Zheng Zhou was preparing guests for the first episode of the new variety show. At first, he did not plan to invite Lin Xing. After all, at Zheng Zhou's position, he could definitely invite many people who are more topical and popular than Lin Xing.

However, later Ren Yi strongly recommended Lin Xing to record two episodes, and Guan Peng also strongly recommended Lin Xing to Zheng Zhou.

That's why today's game is here.

Of course, it is impossible for Zheng Zhou to say this. He expressed the hope that Lin Xing would come to record two episodes for everyone to have fun and relax together.

He even said that he was very optimistic about Lin Xing, and he believed that Lin Xing must be invited to participate in the first issue.

Ren Yi said 'hehe' twice, but he didn't expose Zheng Zhou.

"Brother Zhou, of course I want to play with everyone, but when are you going to start recording this variety show?"

Lin Xing asked.

"Just these few days, because I want to finish recording the first few episodes and start broadcasting during the Chinese New Year..."

Zheng Zhou said: "I plan to record and broadcast this kind of variety show at the same time, so that I can have instant feedback and make adjustments at any time."

Besides, Zheng Zhou believes that there is no technical content in recording this kind of variety show, and it just requires a lot of hard work in post-production.

"If it lasts a few days, there will be no problem."

Lin Xing said with a smile: "There is a script being communicated these days, so I'm afraid I won't have time until the filming of this script starts."

"Oh??"

Ren Yize's eyes lit up: "Which TV series is it?"

"It's not a TV series, it's an online series."

Lin Xing smiled and explained: "But I have to wait until I meet with them tomorrow to talk about the specific situation."

"Another web drama??"

Ren Yi was speechless: "Why did you get into trouble with the online drama?"
