Emperor Superstar Cultivation System

After eating, Lin Xiao immediately came to the tea house where they met.

It has to be said that teahouses provide too much convenience for countless white or black meetings.

Guan Jinpeng is wearing an ordinary black suit. His face in his 40s can still see the contours of his youth. He doesn't have the hair signs of most middle-aged people, and he is well maintained.Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, he looks very refined.

He came with an ordinary-looking man with the same suit and glasses, looking very serious.

Lin Xiao knew that this was a close friend who had worked with Guan Jinpeng many times, and he could be called Wei Shaoen, the queen screenwriter of the other party.

"Let me introduce, this is the screenwriter Jimmy. Don't worry, although he is not in the same circle as us, he won't say anything."

Hello!What does it mean to not be in the same circle as us? !Only you are a circle here, okay!Don't form cliques casually, okay? !

Lin Xiao vomited in his heart, intending to make it clear later, and shook hands with Wei Shaoen enthusiastically, "Wei is ready."

He can't help but be enthusiastic. This unknown screenwriter is very close to top Hong Kong directors like Wang Jiawei and Wu Yusen. He is also a typical behind-the-scenes hero who has flourished in the circle of superstars such as Liang Chaowei and Cheng Long.

Wei Shaoen's gaze was like a torch, and he took a deep look at the other party, and suddenly said, "Not in spirit?"

With the dark bags under Lin Xiao's eyes and his slightly pale face, everyone can tell that he is not doing well.

"A little trouble." He didn't want to say deeply.

Wei Shaoen nodded, "The body is the capital."

They were not familiar with each other, and they didn't exchange shallow words. After a few pleasantries, the three of them sat on the sofa as guest and host.

"Mr. Lin, I have met your 'friend'. The quality is very good. I wish you happiness." Guan Jinpeng said sincerely as soon as he sat down.

Lin Xiao suddenly felt like slapping his mouth open.

"Director Guan...you misunderstood..."

"Don't worry, I won't say anything, just like Su You..."

"Ahem..." Wei Shaoen coughed as soon as he picked up the tea, "Stanleykwan, get down to business."

Lin Xiao was speechless. He never expected that Guan Jinpeng, who was watching calm and gentle on TV, would be so gossip in private!

Sure enough, there are two faces in this circle.

Saying the word business was like flicking a switch. In an instant, Guan Jinpeng, who was laughing and scolding just now, seemed to be a different person, and his whole person suddenly became calm and restrained.

"It's like this." He pushed his glasses, looked at Lin Xiao seriously and said, "A few months ago, I saw a novel called 'Beijing Story' on the Internet, which was about..." He pointed Refers to Lin Xiao and himself "the story of people like us."

"Director Guan, I really..."

Guan Jinpeng waved his hand, "That's not the point, the point is that this story is very good. After reading it, I was sad for a long time, and I had the idea of ​​making it into a movie."

Isn't that the point?

The so-called dumbfounding is Lin Xiao's current mood.

Guan Jinpeng didn't give him a chance to interrupt, and continued talking.

"In order to make this movie, I contacted the author, but unfortunately it is an online novel, which has been reposted many times, so I couldn't contact him at all." Guan Jinpeng sighed regretfully, "So I can only ask Jimmy to use the original book to adapt, I think Kobayashi Do you want to see the original too?"

Sorry, I don't have this idea right now.

Lin Xiao suddenly felt that the atmosphere of this meeting was very weird, and he talked about serious topics in a dumbfounding mood.

"By two weeks ago, the script had been adapted. My film has a fixed crew." He seemed to promise, "They are all people I trust. If anything happens in the crew, you don't have to worry about rumors."

"Anything." He repeated it again, and then sighed, "I said beforehand that for this film, I searched for almost all the new generation artists in Hong Kong, including Nicholas Tse and Chen Guanxi. But... "

He smiled wryly and shook his head, "No one is willing to act..."

"Only you didn't refuse immediately." He turned his head and looked deeply at Lin Xiao. "Before you ask me, can I ask you why you didn't refuse me immediately?"

"You are now in the mainland, you can be called a newly promoted niche, why would you take the risk and not refuse?"

"This film, if you don't make it, it's fine. Once it's shot, I have to ask everyone to integrate into the plot. If it's just for the sake of being different, then I'll leave immediately. If it's just because it's about our story, it still doesn't satisfy me. s answer."

"In the end, why?"

He stared at Lin Xiao closely, not letting go of every expression on the other side.

Lin Xiao was in no mood to refute the "our story" after several questions in succession. He thought about it and said, "Director Guan, my current role is a villain."

Guan Jinpeng's eyes lit up, "It's just that, it can't guarantee that you will fully devote yourself to the shooting."

Lin Xiao nodded, "I think this film has its value. Moreover, I want to try more roles and enter more worlds."

Wei Shaoen also cast his gaze over, Guan Jinpeng pondered for a while, "What else?"

"Every play is a world of its own. You can experience the psychology of that character and grow up. This is a rare wealth for anyone."

"There is an old saying in China that you can travel thousands of miles and read thousands of books. This sentence does not mean how far you have traveled, but the knowledge and experience you have brought from the journey of thousands of miles. Only by going through the ups and downs of the sea of ​​people can you wash away all the glory .”

"It's the same for actors. They analyze their own souls in each play, and analyze the souls of illusory characters. This method is similar to traveling thousands of miles." Lin Xiao couldn't help expressing his own feelings. "I have been fascinated by this way of interpreting multiple worlds since I entered the circle, and the sense of accomplishment brought by the perfect performance of a brand new character is really indescribable!"

"A good role is like a drug, a real entertainer is absolutely hard to refuse!"

"Lam Neeson tried his best to appear in Schindler's List. It was also a 'one shot' movie. Even when his family was intimidated by Jewish forces, he did not hesitate. Lan Yu's subject matter is not so heavy. Why can't I go try?"

"Papa papa!" As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Jinpeng clapped his hands, "Okay! Very good! This is the most contagious artist declaration I've heard this year! But I didn't expect it to be from someone in the second year." hear!"

He was also a little excited, and murmured, "Abandon the strange vision and focus on the world of art... If everyone thinks like this, why worry about not having a suitable actor?"

"It's a fool's way to give up a masterpiece just because of its subject matter!"

He let out a long sigh, "I now know that if I don't recruit you into the crew, I won't feel at ease. The role of Chen Yudong is none other than you!"

"Now, you can ask."

changeable.This is Lin Xiao's evaluation of Guan Jinpeng's ten-minute meeting.

At the beginning, he seemed like an old urchin, but when it came to acting, he was completely unselfish, and he grasped the proportions of a famous director and a new star, without alienation or closeness.

"He really thought he was in the same circle as me?" He had doubts for the first time.

If you can play several attitudes perfectly, you will definitely not fail to see the difference.

But he didn't have time to think about this question, so he thought about it and said, "Director Guan, I only have one question and a few requests. If you agree, I can play this role."

"Tell me."

"First of all, it is also the most important. If I am not absolutely sure that I will not be blocked after filming Lan Yu, I can only refuse this 'drug'."

Guan Jinpeng laughed, and Wei Shaoen also laughed.

"I knew you must be the first one with this problem." He said mysteriously, "However, I can tell you responsibly that the artists of this film will never be banned!"

"The most is to ban the broadcast, there will be no further action!"

Hearing the other party's categorical statement, Lin Xiao asked suspiciously, "Why?"

"Xiao Lin, you have always been an entertainer." Guan Jinpeng smiled and leaned back on the chair, "You haven't come into contact with these statuses. What I said is literal, and there is no other meaning."

Lin Xiao nodded.

"Do you know what the ultimate goal of an artist is?" He said with a smile, "To set up your own film and television or record company, everything is in your own hands, and you are never under the control of others."

"When you get to that point, you will understand how important the country's policies are. And a company's first concern is not where there are good artists and where there are good scripts, but its eyes are fixed on Beijing all the time. , staring at the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television."

Lin Xiao seemed to understand what he was going to say, but he hadn't fully confirmed it yet.

"Last May, the country signed a bilateral trade contract with Europe. This means that the biggest obstacle to China's accession to the WTO has been cleared away, and the rest is just a matter of time." Guan Jinpeng said with a smile, "As for the entry into the WTO, the entertainment industry must have no protection policy. One of the contents of this article applies everywhere. It applies to any country, and China cannot be an exception."

"There are still more than two months...China Central Television has released news. The last two months are over. China will end the long long-distance race to join the WTO and truly join the world stage."

His eyes deepened, "At that time, the entertainment industry will welcome a prosperous age! An absolute prosperous age!"

"Japanese style, Korean style, European and American style will rush towards the entertainment circle with its doors wide open at that time. Do you think that only veterans can survive? I can already predict that after 02, a hundred flowers will bloom and a hundred schools of thought will contend. moment!"

"Hong Kong has the reputation of Eastern Hollywood, but what about its strength? The difference is huge."

"After May, the country has begun to relax some sensitive restrictions. Before joining the WTO, the government will never waste any energy on you." He looked at Lin Xiao and whispered, "Once you are blocked , This kind of news is known by interested people, especially because of Lan Yu's special subject matter, it will make a big fuss."

"China is not ready to join the WTO, and is closed to the outside world? How about this topic appearing in the Associated Press?" He smiled silently, "Although it is just a small wave to the government, but believe me, this More than a billion people have focused their attention on the 14-year critical juncture, which can be said to be an incomparable historic moment after two bombs and one satellite, and the government will never want to see any waves!"

"Just take it with confidence." After finishing speaking, he laughed loudly, "Did you know? I have already applied for the right to release in mainland China, and it has been approved."

Didn't it not air in the end?Lin Xiao thought to himself, although he knew it was because of the naked scenes.However, I am still surprised that Guan Jinpeng can get the right to release gay films in mainland China.

It seems that the gate of the country is ready to open so early...
