This top guy only treats celebrities as his job

Chapter 458: The Master of Keeping Balance is online
This is Lin Xing. If anyone else did this, they would probably be accused of malicious hype.

But because it was Lin Xing, everyone felt it was reasonable.

You have to know that this is Lin Xing’s own personality.

Lin Xing has always been like this, almost never taking the usual path, or in other words, always daring and bold.

Think about why Lin Xing wants to entertain people?
Isn’t it because he never pretended or said anything before, and he would complain whenever he was unhappy with something?

Just look at what Lin Xing said about Kong Shan before, and then look at how Lin Xing attended the premiere and even Yang Tian didn't give him face.

Some people say that Lin Xing doesn't understand the ways of the world, some people say that Lin Xing doesn't know how to deal with things, but if they are deleted, everyone would rather say that Lin Xing is a living figure in the domestic entertainment industry.

Of course, there are also some young actors who want to learn from Lin Xing and become living figures in the domestic entertainment industry, but they end up being taught a lesson by reality.

"You want to be a live person in the domestic entertainment industry? Why don't you first check whether you have a dark history? And don't you check your own confidence?"

This is the education given by some people who have experienced it.

Want to learn from Lin Xing? Are you looking for death? ?
Even Lao Zhong also said: "Lin Xing is not a domestic entertainment live person just for the sake of being a domestic entertainment live person, it is his nature. If he didn't have such a nature, he would not be able to endure the loneliness and return as a king after ten years of being out of fashion. But some people just want to create a persona. If you don't die, who will die? "

Take this time for example, if a short film like "The King's Guards" was given 258 million yuan, they would not even consider acting in it, and even if they did, they would definitely be the protagonists.

Even if they play Qi Wei, they must be special guest stars, and even have a higher ranking than other actors.

Simply put, it has to be in the first line.

But look at what Lin Xing did?
It doesn't overshadow the main character at all, and it even gives up its place.

Of course, this is known to some people, but those who are not aware of the situation still think that Lin Xing is a fugitive.

What I mean is passing the buck.

If any problems occur with the short film "The King's Guards", it will have nothing to do with me.

This situation is quite common in the entertainment industry.

Many actors will run away from the show, or even do more than just running away, like those actors who had agreed to act in "Death on Earth" all ran away.

Situ Hui quickly called Lin Xing, after all, the premiere was this afternoon.

That's right.

Even though "The King's Guard" was just a short film, it still had a premiere.

For Penguin Video, they have already done so much, so there is nothing wrong with holding a premiere at this time.

But the prerequisite is that Lin Xing has to attend the premiere.

If Lin Xing from Jin Yi Wei doesn't come, then what traffic will this bring? ?

Let alone traffic, who would still be willing to pay attention? ?

Penguin Video paid a high price to buy the exclusive broadcasting rights of "The King's Guards" just to bet on Lin Xing.

Situ Hui was of course also anxious. If Lin Xing did not attend, then the premiere would almost become a joke.

"what??"

Lin Xing was obviously a little stunned: "Isn't the premiere already scheduled for 2pm? Who told you I won't attend?"

Situ Hui was extremely concerned: "I saw the Weibo post from your studio, and I thought you wanted to distance yourself from Jin Yi Wei."

"I just don't want 'The King's Men' to promote me as the leading actor anymore, but I didn't say I won't promote this short film."

Lin Xing was a little amused: "Didn't I tell you about this, Sister Hui? And didn't my agent also communicate with you?"

Situ Hui also laughed: "It's my fault that I can't keep up with your pace, Ah Xing."

After seeing the Weibo post from Lin Xing’s studio just now, Situ Hui almost felt that Lin Xing was going to flip the table, no, he was going to give up.

To be honest, if it weren't for Lin Xing's promotion, almost no one would have paid attention to this short film of "The King's Guards".

This is actually a dilemma in the current film market.

For some viewers, they always wonder why some movies always use such familiar actors, or even a group of fifty or sixty actors arranged in various combinations.

But to be honest, not only the audience is fed up with watching the show, after all, it's the same old guys performing every day, and the types of performances they perform are almost the same, so even the investors are fed up with it.

But there is no way to deal with the annoyance.

Because if we use newcomers, many viewers won’t recognize them.

Just like last year's movie "Who's Coming" which used both newcomers and veteran actors, most of the veteran actors were also newcomers.

Their acting skills are pretty good, but because they are all actors with no traffic, the number of promotional comments on the official V didn’t even exceed 1000. You have to know that there are about a hundred or eighty actors in total.

The traffic was dismal, and the promotion of "Who's Coming" was also mediocre. Even this movie was just mediocre. It was like a glass of boiled water, with no taste, but it tasted good when you drank it when you were thirsty.

This requires publicity to find the right audience, but the publicity is taking a curious approach, resulting in direct polarization of word of mouth.

In addition, there was no traffic, and the word-of-mouth was polarized and did not go beyond the circle, so the box office of this movie did not even reach 2000 million.

Another movie that was released at the same time as "Who's Coming" was not as good as "Who's Coming", but because it used top-tier stars, its final box office reached 1.5 million yuan, and it was also a hot topic, even going viral.

This is often the case. Capital only looks at the results, not the process. If the director fails, they will give up on the director; if the actor fails, they will give up on the actor.

After all, there are a lot of people in the entertainment industry, and in the eyes of capital, movies are financial products, and actors are just tools. If one tool doesn't work, then change to another one.

So you see, many actors will eventually turn to capital, or even become bosses, and Yang Tian is no exception.

Of course, most actors do not have the luck or even the strength to turn to capital. Capital will only use them as tools to make money and then discard them.

If the actors want to resist, then people like Hong Jiaojiao last year and Deng Bo the year before, both wanted to terminate their contracts with their agencies and were then ruined.

You have to know that there are only a few people in the entire entertainment industry who have no black history at all, and even their agents and partners cannot find any black spots on them. To be honest, there are only a few people in the entertainment industry who have no black history at all.

This is the entertainment industry. Many times, if you can’t get it, you just destroy it.

If you don't listen to Mr. Huang and don't want to be a good dog, then kill him.

There are not many people like Yang Tian who can successfully complete a gorgeous turnaround in the bet. Of course, even Yang Tian is now in a career low after two consecutive flops.

Didn’t Zheng Zhou, who had made a brilliant transformation into capital, also encounter all kinds of setbacks during the preparation of “The Age of Hard Work”?
Without Lin Xing, the rating of "The Age of Struggle" on Penguin Video would be at most B. With Lin Xing, "The Age of Struggle" would be rated S+.

This is Lin Xing’s current appeal.

Why is Penguin Video willing to gamble on the short film "Jin Yi Wei"? ?

They are wealthy, but they are not stupid and rich. As the director of the content department of Penguin Video, he can be said to have witnessed Lin Xing's success step by step.

Think about when "Sweeping Dark Waves" was released, Penguin Video bet big on this TV series. At that time everyone knew that the show would be a hit, but no one expected that Lin Xing would be even more popular.

Among all the acting veterans, Lin Xing became the most handsome one.

Needless to say, Penguin Video has cooperated with Lin Xing the most. The least optimistic "The Hunting Murderer" also became a hit, and "The Death Knell", "I Am Yu Xiaohei", "Never Breaking the Line" and "Mining Town" were all very popular. The executives of Penguin Video knew that if they didn't gamble, Deng Ying, the executive of the next door Panda Video, would have been eager to try.

After all, the traffic that "Bad Kids" brought to Panda Video really made Deng Ying feel how awesome he was when he thinks about it now.

But later, the cooperation between Panda Video and Lin Xing became much less except for variety shows. On the contrary, Panda Video's bet on Yang Tian's "Spy Blood" turned out to be a big flop.

Doesn’t this explain the problem?
The outside world laughed at them, laughed at them for risking everything on a short film, but only they knew to what extent Lin Xing would carry the show.

These three words "star quality" are not just for nothing.

But Panda Video is not as wealthy as Penguin Video after all, so Deng Ying could only sigh.

Of course, he has enough confidence in Lin Xing, so he wants to bet on it, but at the same time, he has never beaten Penguin, so Deng Ying hopes that "The King's Guards" will flop.

"Boss Deng, the Lin Xing Studio just refuted the rumor about the Jin Yi Wei, saying that it was a supporting role. This is almost like running away from the show, so I think it might be a good thing that we didn't spend a lot of money to buy it?"

The chief editor of the content department of Panda Video said to Deng Ying with a smile.

"You don't know Lin Xing. Although I haven't met Lin Xing that many times, this person is really different from other people in the entertainment industry. How should I put it?"

Deng Ying thought for a moment and said, "He doesn't seem to care that much about fame and fortune, and he always maintains a humble attitude. This has remained the case even after he became famous. So if it were someone else, I would think he was running away, but in Lin Xing's case, I think he was probably giving up."

The editor-in-chief disagreed: "Mr. Deng, how many people in the entertainment industry don't want to be famous? Look at how many actresses have tried to hype themselves up as not caring about fame and fortune, but what happened? Each one is more shameless than the other."

"No, Lin Xing is different."

Deng Ying shook her head and said, "And I heard from a judge who attended the Hundred Flowers Awards that the short film "Jin Yi Wei" was indeed well received, and didn't we also watch it? Don't you think this film is bad?"

The editor thought for a moment and said, "I think it's good, but in the entertainment industry, a good film doesn't mean a good result, and a good TV series or movie doesn't mean a good ratings or box office..."

This is the truth.

It is very common that bad movies have high box office, while good movies are critically acclaimed but not commercially successful.

"Let's see what happens after 'The Imperial Guards' goes online tonight."

Deng Ying said: "If this short film can really spark a martial arts craze, then we must quickly follow suit..."

This is why Deng Ying has been paying attention to "The King's Guards".

Since he can’t compete with Penguin Video, he might as well create a fake Li Kui.

Anyway, the themes of online movies are often like this. For example, after "Sweeping Away Gangs" became popular, it has been three or four years, and there are still a lot of online movies about sweeping away gangs.

At the same time, Lin Xing arrived at the premiere of "The Imperial Guards" in the imperial capital.

The host of this premiere was also Zhao Fang.

Moreover, Lin Xing had already agreed with Zhao Fang that he would also participate in Zhao Fang's new program "Fang Tan You Liao".

At the premiere, both Li Jing and Situ Hui showed up. Li Jing was the director, and Situ Hui served as the performance coach and producer.

But the real focus is still Lin Xing.

"Lin Xing, since you claim that you are not the protagonist, then why did you attend the premiere?"

"Lin Xing, are you not optimistic about "The King's Guards" and that's why you announced that you would not be responsible for the film before it was released?"

"Lin Xing, some people say you are running away from the show, and some say you are giving up the show because you are not optimistic about it. Do you have anything to say?"

……

My goodness, at the scene, whether it was Li Jing, Situ Hui, Xie Long, Meng Fei, Zhang Ming, or veteran actors Zhou Hai, Niu Xiaofeng and others, they were all ignored by the reporters.

For many reporters, there was only one person who was the most talked about, had the most traffic, and could attract the most attention, and that was Lin Xing.

"Everyone, please don't be anxious. First of all, let me make it clear that I am neither running away from the show nor giving up the show. From the very beginning, the three leading actors of "The King's Guards" were Xie Long, Meng Fei, and Zhang Ming. My role was not even as good as that of Mr. Zhou Hai and Mr. Niu Xiaofeng. I was just a supporting role, so I didn't want the audience to be misled. If the audience came to watch the short film starring Lin Xing because of me, and then saw that I only had a few scenes in this short film, do you think they would curse? It is such an excellent short film..."

Lin Xing said to the reporters, "Yes, I am very optimistic about "Jin Yi Wei" because Teacher Li Jing is so amazing. His martial arts guidance often makes me wonder how he came up with it at night. It is so beautiful and so clean. It is completely different from the fancy fighting scenes in previous martial arts movies. Because Jin Yi Wei is a killing organization, their action scenes must be killing scenes..."

Facing interviews from numerous reporters, Lin Xing spoke freely.

Since you have made me the focus, I will talk about them one by one.

Or praise them one by one.

Lin Xing first talked about Li Jing. He said that Li Jing is still as good as ever and his design movements are very powerful.

Then Lin Xing talked about Situ Hui, and thought that Situ Hui's acting guidance was really good.

Following closely are the three main actors. Xie Long is a child star. Like Lin Xing, he became famous at a young age. Although he has not been in everyone's attention in recent years, Lin Xing believes that this short film will allow everyone to see Xie Long's transformation.

Flowing water does not compete for the first place, the contention is endless.

In the acting industry, as long as you keep working hard, you will always be noticed.

After talking about Xie Long, Lin Xing continued to talk about Meng Fei, Zhang Ming, and then Niu Xiaofeng, the actor who played Wei Zhongxian.

Good guy.

Lin Xing’s character as a master of keeping things balanced is directly online.
