This top guy only treats celebrities as his job

Chapter 501: Suffering a loss is a blessing, I really can't do it
An Yifeng's mother is an old fairy. As I mentioned before, she is a typical self-satisfied person.

Just like An Yifeng knew that she and Lin Xing were just friends, but An Yifeng's mother felt that Lin Xing had bad intentions.

After all, who wouldn’t like their own daughter?

She even thought that Lin Xing was disrespectful to her because he was angry that she did not let her daughter participate in "Death on Earth" and thus ruined Lin Xing's plan to pursue her daughter.

Yes.

An Yifeng's mother thought that Lin Xing wanted to pursue her daughter. This might be fake just because he wanted to film a scene with her daughter, but he really wanted to take the opportunity to have sex with her daughter politely.

After all, this kind of situation is too common in the crew, and An Yifeng's mother believes that Lin Xing must have had this idea.

think too much.

An Yifeng really wanted to tell her mother that even when filming "Killing Ading", Lin Xing basically never thought of taking advantage of her. On the contrary, during the sex scene, Lin Xing was the nervous one.

Besides, what's wrong with having polite sex with Lin Xing?

But An Yifeng really had no way to explain all this to her mother, and she was too lazy to explain anything.

She felt tired because her mother had such a good self-image, so good that An Yifeng felt a little ashamed.

What does that have to do with anything?
Although An Yifeng didn't know how much investment was made in "Death on Earth" and she hadn't even read the script, she believed that Lin Xing was not the kind of person who would just play around blindly.

To be honest, if Lin Xing is really like the other directors, what kind of woman can't he sleep with? ?
You have to know how many women are willing to sleep with the entire crew in order to become famous, not to mention people like Lin Xing, how many people are lining up to work with him.

There are not only TV drama stars, but also too many movie stars.

For this reason, An Yifeng believes that Yang Tian must have volunteered to star in the movie "Parallel Cohabitation".

The reason is very simple. An Yifeng knows how hard these sisters have worked. She has already failed in two films, so she will definitely try every means to get back on her feet.

In this regard, An Yifeng feels that she still needs to learn from Yang Tian, ​​because sometimes An Yifeng really can't let go of this kind of airs, or the shamelessness that she can take on and put down.

Think about it, although "Death on Earth" is about Lin Xing who was rejected by An Yifeng's mother and sister, these two people represent themselves after all.

What's more, An Yifeng's mother was having an unpleasant quarrel with An Yifeng, which made An Yifeng embarrassed to talk to Lin Xing.

But look at Yang Tian again. In the beginning, he and Lin Xing had a bad quarrel because of "Spy Blood". But in the end, he still seemed to not care and kept leaning on Lin Xing.

An Yifeng had no choice but to accept this point.

It would have been fine if her mother hadn't reminded her, but this reminder made An Yifeng feel that she had to apologize to Lin Xing again when the Golden Dragon Award was presented.

Lin Xing didn't know about the affairs of the An family mother and son, and he didn't even pay much attention to the National Day holiday.

During the entire National Day period, the filming of "Parallel Cohabitation" was proceeding in an orderly manner.

The crew will not take a holiday during the National Day.

You know how much money the crew would lose if they stopped working for one day?
However, Lin Xing also asked Wei Fei to notify all crew members that the wages of all staff during the entire National Day period will be calculated at three times the salary.

Today is the last day of the National Day holiday, and Ren Yi and Guan Peng will leave tomorrow.

It has been 47 days since the filming of "Parallel Cohabitation" started. Ren Yi and Guan Peng have already finished filming their scenes. After all, they are just guest appearances and it will only take a day or two.

But the two of them have been helping the crew for nearly 50 days. This is because Lin Xing had helped Ren Yi and Guan Peng before, so they are naturally willing to help.

Not only that, during the National Day holiday, Zu Ming not only came to visit the set, but also helped with filming for a few days.

Lin Xing even had the sudden idea of ​​letting Zu Ming play a cameo role. Anyway, there was no problem with Zu Ming's acting skills.

This is mutual help in the circle. If it was just Zulan, then Zuming would not have come to visit the set, help with filming, and give some suggestions and make a cameo appearance.

But it’s different with Lin Xing.

Think about how much favor Zu Ming owes Lin Xing in the TV series "Love Is Not Easy"?
The most important thing is that Lin Xing tried his best to make suggestions for "Love Is Not Easy", and he didn't say anything when he was being bullied.

At that time, many of Lin Xing’s fans were dissatisfied, wondering why Lin Xing was so willing to let Zu Ming pull her away? ?

Because everyone thinks that being a good person in the entertainment industry is not okay, and being a good person will lead to being sucked dry by others.

But sometimes being good pays off.

Disadvantage is a blessing.

Or it can be said that Lin Xing's style of doing things has always been to repay kindness with kindness and to repay hatred double.

Therefore, he was willing to help Zu Ming. As for the so-called loss, Fulinxing didn't believe it. If the loss was meaningless, the loss would only get bigger.

Just like what happened to Kong Shan in the beginning, if Lin Xing continued to be courteous to him, or even endured it with the belief that suffering a loss is a blessing, then the other party would definitely take advantage of him, and in the end it would only affect Lin Xing's popularity.

Lin Xing helped Zu Ming because he believed in Zu Ming's character. Just like this time, when Zu Ming came to visit the set, he also did his best to help the crew of "Parallel Cohabitation".

Even during the meeting, Zu Ming said that he knew a little bit about TV dramas, which was his comfort zone, but he didn't know much about movies, so if Lin Xing needed his help with anything, he could just speak up.

So there was the situation of Zu Ming filming this time.

When Zu Ming left, Zu Lan actually felt devastated. You know, she wanted Zu Ming to make a cameo appearance in her last movie, but Zu Ming said, "What does it mean if I make a cameo appearance in your movie? Isn't this telling everyone that I want to support you?"

As a result, Zu Lan never expected her father to make a guest appearance in "Parallel Cohabitation" this time, but Lin Xing said one word and Zu Ming came to make a guest appearance.

When Zulan asked Zuming, Zuming said: "Can it be the same?"

Ok.

These words made Zulan feel as if she was picked up, but in the end Zulan was able to talk herself out of it.

Anyway, as long as it is good for "Parallel Cohabitation", it's fine.

After completing the filming of the last day of the National Day holiday, Zu Lan personally performed the act for Ren Yi and Guan Peng.

In the crew, these two people who were considered uncles really taught Zulan a lot, and Zulan really learned much more knowledge in the crew of "Parallel Cohabitation" than in the previous drama.

"I won't come to the closing ceremony."

Ren Yi and Lin Xing drank another cup and said, "Tell me when it's released."

Guan Peng said: "I'm doing better here, but do I have to join the crew of "Death on Earth" next?"

"Well, let's wait until the Golden Dragon Awards are over."

Lin Xing nodded gently and said, "At present, the filming of "Parallel Cohabitation" is almost finished. Let Brother Zhou take care of the post-production..."

Liu Zhou said: “In fact, apart from those special effects, the rest of the post-production is quite simple. After all, we made a storyboard before, and the shooting went quite smoothly, so the editing was not that difficult…” In fact, this is because we did a good job of preparation in advance. We had already done a lot during the [script discussion], and then we continued the discussion while shooting, so the shooting was naturally accurate, and editing was much easier.

I didn't drink too much tonight because I have to continue filming tomorrow.

The next day, on the first working day after the National Day holiday, the box office was bound to enter a deserted state, and the data network also updated the total box office of the National Day holiday.

how to say? ?
The National Day holiday in 2027 set the third worst box office record in the past decade.

"Damn, this is really embarrassing. When has the National Day holiday been so bad? You know, when were the last and second to last National Day holiday?"

"Yes, in fact, this year's National Day movie was initially said to be the strongest, but now it has almost become the worst."

"The blockbusters failed, the actors' box office appeal failed, everyone thought there would be a 30 billion-plus movie during the National Day holiday, or even two, but the result was really embarrassing."

"Thinking this way, Going to Heaven is really awesome. The box office of Going to Heaven of over 30 billion is really awesome."

……

When the data network updated the box office for the National Day holiday, people in the industry and the audience were generally impressed.

The actor's box office appeal has been destroyed again.

No one expected that Sharp would perform so badly in "Customized Couple" this time, and his reputation and popularity also collapsed slightly.

This is often the case. Actors need to speak through their works, and people's popularity with actors is often just a filter for your work.

When your works continue to fail, the audience will naturally abandon you.

This was the case with Chu Xingrui in the beginning. After he stopped producing good works, people gradually stopped having a favorable impression of him.

The same is true for Sharp today. Of course, he still has a certain appeal. After all, the box office of "Customized Couples" cannot be considered a big flop.

The real flop, "Happy Divorce", had already been taken away.

The film industry is not something that anyone can easily master.

Just like art films, everyone thinks that Lin Xing can be so awesome, so maybe I can do it too, can I also make a movie that costs over 30 billion?

The result is that I really can't do it.

Even Ouyang Qing's current reputation and popularity have been almost exhausted, especially this National Day movie "Resist the Japanese Aggression" has completely consumed any popularity Ouyang Qing had before.

"Will not."

Lin Xing smiled at Zu Lan and said, "Popularity is often a bit mysterious. Moreover, the director's reputation is not important most of the time. What's really important is the work."

You know, some directors are not very popular among the public, but their movies are still box office hits.

But what will happen to Ouyang Qing's future films? ?

Lin Xing believes that Ouyang Qing will not disappoint him.

In other words, Ouyang Qing will never disappoint people when it comes to disappointing people.

The reason is very simple.

Ouyang Qing is already this age, it is basically impossible for him to change anything, and his movies are doing well at the box office, so it is impossible for him to change that.

On the contrary, it is Sharp that is most likely to feel the need for change.

Before "Customized Couples", although Sharp had several movies that flopped, they were all guest appearances by him. There were even fans who tried to save Sharp's reputation by saying that it was because his films were not popular enough.

But the popularity of "Customized Couples" is very high. Even though there is a female lead in the whole movie, all the focus is on Sharp.

In other words, after watching "Customized Couples", you will not feel that the performances of Wang Ruoan and Guan Qing as the male and female protagonists are so wonderful like in "Dangerous Liaisons". On the contrary, you will only feel that this is an absolute male-dominated drama.

But under such circumstances, the box office of "Customized Couples" during the entire 7-day National Day holiday was only 5.3 million yuan. The previous forecast was 10 billion yuan, but now it seems difficult to even reach 10 billion yuan.

As the film in which Sharp starred, "Custom Couple" recorded his worst box office performance.

The worst here refers to Sharp's movies.

You have to know that Sharp is an actor with a box office of tens of billions, but he has never won the Best Actor award.

Yes.

Sharp has always been a box office draw, but he has never won the Best Actor award, which is not surprising.

You should know that although Chu Xingrui is called Chu God, he has only won the Best Actor award once, and it was not for a comedy film.

It is difficult for comedy films to win awards, and this is a point often discussed in the industry.

For this reason, many people think that Sharp should actually transform, but he has been making comedies. Not only that, he also participates in various variety shows. In short, it seems like he is squandering his talent.

But it’s understandable.

Because it feels so good.

You don't need great acting skills, you just need to play yourself, and then passers-by will like it very much and even be willing to buy tickets to support you.

With such popularity, who wouldn’t envy? ?

However, there will always be a day when the popularity among passers-by will be exhausted. In many cases, the exhaustion of popularity among passers-by is not sudden, but is accumulated slowly. When it accumulates to a certain level, it will burst out completely.

In the eyes of the industry, and even in the eyes of Sharp, his popularity among the public should be quite good. Even the publicity and promotion of "Customized Couples" believes that Sharp's box office appeal is solid.

As a result, the box office was like a bucket of cold water that chilled everyone to the bone.

However, Sharp was willing to accept defeat. During the roadshow, he said that he had actually been trying to reduce variety shows as much as possible, and at the same time, a movie based on his transformation would soon be released to the public.

Sharp actually had great expectations for the movie "Customized Couples", but he did not expect that the audience would not buy it. At the same time, Sharp also said that comedy is difficult to make, and he has long wanted to make a transition.

Of course, Sharp’s fans don’t think that the failure of “Customized Couples” is due to Sharp.

They think it’s because of the overall bad environment and that the current movie box office is not doing well.

But in response to Sharp's fans, someone said, "Do you want to see the box office of "Going to Heaven"?"
