It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1091 Hidden rules in the entertainment industry? Bullying by big-name actors? Don’t be scared! Just do it! At worst, you can just quit...

Li Mingde, who just started his sophomore year this year, asked for leave from the dormitory manager after completing the homework assigned by his tutor, saying that he was going to sleep at a relative's house for a night.

This reason is of course false.

His real purpose was to go to the cinema near the school to watch the movie "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in Show Business".

Many teachers in the school have been promoting this movie, saying how good it is, how profound its connotation is, and how excellent its quality is...

He listened to all these words.

In addition, this movie tells the story of the unspoken rules in the entertainment industry, which is undoubtedly very tempting for him, a "reserve" actor who just entered his sophomore year and has not yet officially entered the entertainment industry.

He often heard from his classmates that the path of an actor is not easy, as it involves many dark and unspoken rules.

But unfortunately, because he has not officially joined the crew to film, he has not been able to access these things yet.

And now if you want to know it in advance, then watching "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in Show Business" is undoubtedly the best choice!

While waiting in line to enter the theater to watch the movie, he also searched for nearby Internet cafes on his mobile phone.

He plans to play in the Internet cafe all night tonight, go back to school early tomorrow morning, and then go directly to the dormitory to catch up on sleep.

"College is better than high school. Hehe, there are no classes on Fridays. That's great!"

Muttering to himself, he walked into the theater, found his seat and sat down.

Because it was a midnight show, there weren't many people in the theater. Everyone was sitting in scattered positions, very dispersed.

Li Mingde took a sip of ice cola, grabbed a handful of popcorn, and ate while waiting for the main film to start.

"Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in the Entertainment Industry" tells the story of a dozen art school students with different family backgrounds, growth experiences, and personalities in a performance department class at Haiya Film and Television Academy, and their persistence in their dreams, as well as the ups and downs of their growth in the complex society and entertainment industry.

The leading actors in the film are students of the acting department class of 2010, which reminded Li Mingde of his seniors such as Yang Zi, Zhang Yishan and Li Xian.

"It would be great if I could achieve such high achievements like them after my debut! It would bring honor to my family!"

While he was talking to himself, the main film had already begun.

The film uses a multi-threaded narrative and multiple protagonists, giving it a "showy" feel.

But Li Mingde frowned as he watched, because he personally felt that this multi-threaded narrative operation was too messy and ordinary people simply could not get into it.

However, just when he thought this was a big problem, he soon discovered that his judgment was wrong.

Because he gradually discovered that "multi-thread narrative" was actually the least noticeable one among many problems!
The overall editing and story of the film did not achieve any results in the so-called exploration. The aesthetics even remain at the level of a small county town in the 18th tier. The jokes are so low-level that they are simply outrageous... The whole style gives off a feeling of the urban-rural fringe!
What made him feel "speechless" the most was that the movie was filled with various monologues, narrations, explanations, PPTs... The performance element was greatly reduced, and the use of cameras was extremely chaotic and had no aesthetic appeal!

Overall, this movie cannot even be called a movie. At best, it is a low-profile web drama.

And that group of actors, none of them can even speak standard Mandarin, their dialogue skills are terrible, and their acting is so awkward!
"What the hell? Is this the level of a director who has a master's degree in acting from Beijing Film Academy and a doctorate in film and television from Peking University? With this quality of a movie, he still has the nerve to brag that he spent ten years honing his craft?"

At this moment, Li Mingde's mind was full of doubts and confusion.

If all young Chinese-language film directors are of this level, then what the hell is there for the future of Chinese-language films?

Although the plot of the movie does reveal some of the "hidden rules" of the entertainment industry, such as sleeping with various people in the crew, being bullied by big-name actors, and having scenes deleted, etc...

However, all this cannot hide the fact that the quality of the film is extremely bad!

"Fuck, what the hell is this video about? It's a waste of my time, fucking bullshit."

The movie was less than halfway through when Li Mingde heard a boy in the front row stand up and walk outside, cursing.

Soon after, several more people walked out together, all of them were cursing and complaining.

"Oh, I might as well go home and watch some porn."

"Give me back! I must give you back! Liars! They are all liars!"

"The actress is so ugly, she doesn't appeal to my fetish at all..."

There weren't many people watching movies in the midnight theater to begin with, and as a group of LSPs left, the theater suddenly became empty.

Li Mingde also wanted to get up and leave, but when he remembered that he had spent dozens of dollars to buy the ticket, he suddenly felt reluctant.

Moreover, this movie contains many "unspoken rules" of the entertainment industry, which are indeed something that new actors like him need to pay attention to, so he finally patiently watched the entire movie.

As he walked out, he thought to himself.

If one day in the future you encounter the so-called "unspoken rules", how should you deal with it?

The answer to this question was not found until he walked out of the cinema, went to the Internet cafe and turned on the computer!
"Fuck, everyone has two eyes and a mouth. Why should I endure all that bullying? I can tolerate normal competition, but if anyone dares to bully me, I will definitely fight back! Whoever makes me uncomfortable will definitely not have an easy time. Anyway, I am not afraid of those wearing shoes if I am barefoot..."

While secretly making up his mind, he turned on his computer and logged into the Douban website.

After finding the movie "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in the Entertainment Industry", he gave it a one-star bad review without hesitation, and also sent a negative review of more than 100 words:
"There are bad movies every year, but this one is so weird. A PhD director, who directed and acted in it himself? Damn! I have never seen such a bad movie. Can anyone be a director now? It's disgusting. Who released it?"

The script is terrible, and the director seems like a narcissist. And he plays the leading role? I think the acting skills of any supporting actor are much better than the leading actor..."

Although Li Mingde witnessed many unspoken rules of the entertainment industry from this movie, it did not affect his criticism of the movie.

Such a bad movie, what are you waiting for if not to criticize it?

Do you think you can save it for watching during the Spring Festival?
To be honest, in comparison, he even thinks that the Spring Festival Galas in recent years are much better than this movie!
……

Los Angeles, Walton Pictures film and television post-production studio.

After finishing a day's work, Fade Chen stretched and stood up from his chair.

After more than twenty days of hard work, and with the help of others, "Manchester by the Sea" finally entered its final stage.

If nothing goes wrong, the film can be edited smoothly in two days.

Glancing at the time on his watch, he couldn't help but mutter, "Wow? It's already 10 o'clock in the evening?"

After thinking for a moment, he made a decision.

I'm not going home tonight. There's a rest room at the back of the office. I'll stay there for the night and then get up early tomorrow morning to continue working.

After going out, he opened the food delivery app to order food while walking towards the elevator.

By the time we returned to the lounge, the food had already been ordered.

He went to the shower to wash up and went downstairs to get some food. He sat on the sofa, eating pizza while reading domestic entertainment news.

Looking around, the most popular thing on Weibo right now is "Sky Hunter"!
In order to welcome the upcoming National Day, Li Chen and Fan Bingbing actually staged a very sensational romantic drama.

--Proposal!
From the exposed videos and photos, we can see that the two of them worked very hard for this promotion.

Under a starry night sky, Li Chen brought Fan Bingbing to a venue decorated like a dream... flowers, candles, music, everything seemed so romantic and perfect.

Witnessed by many friends, Li Chen knelt on one knee, looked at Fan Bingbing affectionately, and slowly said: "We will be together forever..."

In the video, his voice was full of firmness and tenderness, as if he wanted to put all his love into these simple words.

On the other side, Fan Bingbing's eyes were slightly moist after hearing this. He held Li Chen's hand tightly and responded affectionately: "Okay, forever, together forever..."

The conversation between the two seemed simple, but it was very "sincere" and touched the hearts of many fans.

There were professional photographers on the scene who captured each proposal photo, and after careful selection, they became one of the promotional materials for "Sky Hunter".

Not surprisingly, when the news that "Li Chen successfully proposed to Fan Bingbing" appeared on the Internet along with these romantic photos and related videos, it immediately caused an uproar!

Netizens have sent their blessings to the couple's love, and are also looking forward to the upcoming "Sky Hunter".

This proposal not only made Li Chen and Fan Bingbing’s love story a hot topic in the entertainment industry, but also added infinite brilliance and popularity to the promotion of "Sky Hunter"!

The media were naturally unwilling to lag behind, and various reports kept pouring out like a gushing spring:

"At the roadshow for Sky Hunter in Hefei, Fan Bingbing was dressed in gorgeous clothes. The giant diamond ring on his left ring finger sparkled under the lights, becoming one of the focal points of the entire venue."

"When asked by the media at the scene how she would rate this film directed by Li Chen, Fan Bingbing smiled, hesitated for a moment and said firmly: 'I would rate it 8.5'! Her tone was full of recognition of the film, and revealed her trust and support for her fiancé's talent."

"Li Chen revealed for the first time that he and Fan Bingbing actually starred in this film for free, because he knew very well that modern air combat themes have always been a blank in the Chinese film market, and Sky Hunter will fill this gap and become the first modern air combat movie presented to the audience!
To this end, he made great efforts and even slept in the editing room for two consecutive months, just to ensure that the film could be completed smoothly. "Talking about the hardships during the filming process, the couple were very emotional... Li Chen vowed that in order to present the most realistic battle scenes, all fighter planes were real and no special effects were used. Please rest assured to watch it."

"At the event, the two also shared many interesting stories and challenges during the filming process. They used their own personal experiences to convey the stories and emotions behind the movie to fans..."

"Sky Hunter's producer Yin Sixie made a bold statement at the roadshow: This movie will be a top masterpiece that is no less than Operation Red Sea and Wolf Warrior 2!"

Chen Fei was biting into a pizza while watching the news, with an extremely interesting expression on his face.

He really didn't expect that these two people would even hype up the proposal in order to promote the movie.

Previously, many marketing accounts had been trying to hype that they had broken up privately.

Now that these proposal photos and videos have been exposed, CP fans are extremely excited, and it has once again triggered waves of popularity.

If nothing unexpected happens, a lot of this popularity and traffic can be converted into box office revenue.

Of course, the prerequisite is that the quality of "Sky Hunter" is good enough!

We must not be criticized by thousands of people like "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in Entertainment Industry" which was released in the early hours of yesterday morning, otherwise all the early investment will be wasted.

After shifting his attention away from the news report on Sky Hunter, Fade Chen shifted his focus to Pure Mind.

Looking at the insults in the comment section and the Douban score as low as 2.2, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I wonder how interesting the expressions of the teachers in the acting and directing departments of Beijing Film Academy would be when they saw this situation?
Alone Better Together.

While checking out the online abuse and negative reviews, Chen Fei did not forget to share them with Tian Zhuangzhuang.

"Jingle Bell!"

He had just sent the message when the phone rang suddenly the next second.

Chen Fei pressed the answer button and turned on the speakerphone: "Director Tian? Are you still awake?"

"No, I'm just watching the joke."

Tian Zhuangzhuang said this cheerfully, his tone full of teasing.

"Watching a joke? What joke?" Chen Fei didn't quite understand what he meant for a moment.

“I liked all the posts on WeChat Moments and Weibo from teachers and professors at Beijing Film Academy who had forwarded and recommended the movie Pure Heart: Chasing Dreams in the Entertainment Industry.

Now they have all reacted and are busy deleting the messages. I have to quickly take screenshots and save them, and forward them to them when I have the chance..."

"Hahaha, Director Tian, ​​this is too mean."

"Haha." Tian Zhuangzhuang sneered and said, "Aren't they all very sure that this movie will be a huge success? I want to see now how it can be successful."

"Then I won't bother you anymore. Go take a screenshot quickly before they delete it."

"It's okay, don't worry, those guys posted a lot, it will take a while to delete them all."

"Hahahahaha, I wish you good luck."

After hanging up the phone, Fade Chen couldn't help but burst out laughing again.

He really didn't expect that Tian Zhuangzhuang, at his age, still had such a "naughty old boy" mind.

However, it can also be seen from this that because of this movie, he probably suffered a lot of humiliation at the Beijing Film Academy.

After all, there are some old dogs in the college who love to pursue fame and fortune, but don’t want to take responsibility.

If Tian Zhuangzhuang hadn't left early, those people would probably have really put the blame for the failure of the movie "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in Show Business" on him!

……

Time comes on the 23th.

With the "expectation" of many people in China, the first day box office figures of "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in Show Business", a top-notch masterpiece directed by Bi Zhifei and known as "a decade in the making", have just been released.

When the score of 213 million appeared in the report, laughter immediately echoed in the film and television circles and the Beijing Film Academy campus.

Duyun, Xishan Bridge, the filming site of "The Unknown".

Han Jianu was almost laughing like crazy... She was bent over, holding her stomach, and tears were streaming down her face!

"Okay, it's about time you stop laughing. If you keep laughing you'll look stupid."

Han Sanping looked at her silly daughter helplessly, frowning tightly: "You are the director of a crew, you must be mature, steady, and have your own dignity, otherwise how can you control the crew?"

"I promise... after I laugh this time... I... I will never laugh again!"

Han Jianu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and forced herself to stop.

After a moment, she came close to her father and whispered, "Beijing Film Academy had previously praised Bi Zhifei as the best in the world, but now the box office of "Pure Mind: Chasing Dreams in the Entertainment Industry" is so bad, shouldn't they come out and explain it?"

"What's the explanation? The 67th anniversary celebration was cancelled. Isn't this the best explanation?"

"Ah?" Han Jianu was slightly stunned: "The school anniversary is cancelled? Is this true?"

As she spoke, she quickly took out her cell phone and opened her email.

Sure enough, there was an email from Beijing Film Academy in my inbox, the content of which roughly stated that due to some force majeure factors, the school anniversary event scheduled for the 17th of next month was cancelled.

"Tsk tsk, this Director Bi is really awesome. He single-handedly canceled the school anniversary activities. I admire you! I really admire you!"

"Okay, okay, stop looking." Han Sanping urged, "It's almost time, we should go out, the media and reporters are all in place, it's time to hold the launch conference."

"Oh."

Han Jianu responded and walked out, saying, "Dad, I have to go back to the capital on the 27th. Can you guide me for a day?"

"Why are you going back to the capital?" Comrade Old Han frowned repeatedly. He thought his girl was going to be lazy again.

"I'm Yifei's bridesmaid. We have to go through the process before the wedding starts to make sure there are no problems with any part of the wedding day."

"Oh, that's okay."

Han Sanping's frown immediately relaxed.

The script of "Nobody" was written by Chen Fei for his own girl, and this favor must be repaid.

And there is "Dying to Survive"... This favor is really huge, and it would be great if the father and daughter could repay it in this lifetime.

"Is one day enough? If not, stay a few more days. Pay more attention when helping others. Don't act like a crazy girl who hasn't grown up..."

Han Jianu said tentatively, "How about I wait until the wedding is over before coming back?"

"you dare!"

Zuoshandiao's eyes widened immediately: "It's fine if I give you a cameo role, but do you want me to help you film a movie? What are you thinking of?"

The negotiations failed, so Xiao Han had to shrink his head and turned into a quail.

"Three days, then."

"Only two days!"

"Oh!"

Han Jianu responded with a sense of grievance, but a smile that was difficult to suppress secretly appeared at the corner of her mouth.

She thought she only had one day off, but unexpectedly she got two days.

This wave is pure profit!
