China Entertainment: I am a big boss in the industry

Chapter 888 Are You Playing with Fire and Getting Burned?
He went against the majority's opinion and chose several newcomers to play the main roles.

This caused a lot of controversy at the time, and many people questioned his choice, thinking he was making a joke of his career.

"Boss Lin, are you sure you want to use these newcomers? They don't have any acting experience. What if they mess up?"

the producer asked worriedly.

Lin Gao sneered.

"Experience? Experience is bullshit! When I was filming A Chinese Odyssey, who the hell had experience? And what was the result? It became a national hit!"

The producer was intimidated by his aura and didn't dare to say anything more.

Lin Gao knew clearly that the reason he chose these newcomers was because their temperaments matched the characters in the original novels very well.

He wants to create the most authentic "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", and he wants the whole world to see the charm of Chinese martial arts!
During the filming process, Lin Gao demonstrated his extraordinary directorial talent.

He shot every scene beautifully and portrayed every character vividly.

He pays particular attention to the portrayal of details, and even requires the actors to be perfect in an insignificant look or a subtle movement.

"No! No! That look is wrong! You need to show Duan Yu's infatuation, not the lecherous and vulgar look!"

Lin Gao shouted at the young actor who played Duan Yu.

The young actor was so frightened that he trembled all over and quickly adjusted his expression.

"One more time! Ready, set, go!"

After countless NGs, the young actor finally found the feeling and portrayed Duan Yu's infatuation vividly.

"Good! Very good! This one passed!" Lin Gao nodded with satisfaction.

As the filming progressed, Lin Gao and Wang Yuyan had more and more contact.

He discovered that although Wang Yuyan looked weak, she was actually very strong inside.

She has a very deep understanding of the script and a very accurate grasp of the role.

During a break in filming, Lin Gao and Wang Yuyan sat on the set and chatted.

"Ms. Wang, you... you really don't know Duan Yu?" Lin Gao asked the question again for some unknown reason.

Wang Yuyan was stunned for a moment, then she gave a mysterious smile.

"Boss Lin, maybe... in another time and space, I know him."

Lin Gao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be... could it be that she was really...

Just then, there was a sudden commotion on the set.

Someone shouted: "Fire! Fire!"

The raging fire instantly engulfed the ancient city tower built on the set, with thick smoke billowing and flames shooting into the sky...

Thick smoke billowed and flames licked everything on the set like a greedy beast.

In the chaos, Lin Gao grabbed Wang Yuyan's wrist and roared, "Follow me!"

Wang Yuyan staggered a few steps due to his strong grip and asked in panic, "Boss Lin, what...what's going on?"

"Stop talking nonsense! Run for your life first!"

Lin Gao didn't bother to explain and pulled her out desperately.

The fire spread quickly, crackling sounds were heard continuously, and the scorching air almost suffocated people.

Lin Gao protected Wang Yuyan, stumbled all the way, and finally rushed out of the sea of ​​fire.

The two collapsed outside the set, gasping for breath.

Wang Yuyan was still in shock, her face was pale, and her eyes were full of fear.

"It's okay, it's okay..." Lin Gao patted her back and comforted her.

Wang Yuyan raised her head and looked at the man covered in ashes in front of her, and an inexplicable sense of security surged in her heart.

"Boss Lin, thank you for saving me..."

"It's my duty, it's my duty..." Lin Gao scratched his head awkwardly.

At this time, the sirens of fire trucks and police cars came from far away, breaking the brief silence.

The fire burned down the entire set and also burned Lin Gao’s hard work.

In the following days, Lin Gao was busy dealing with the aftermath, and he was overwhelmed. Not only did he have to compensate for the huge losses, but he also had to appease the emotions of the crew members and face the media bombardment.

"Lin Gao, do you have anything else to say?"

A reporter asked aggressively, "Is this fire the result of you playing with fire and getting burned?"

"fart!"

Lin Gao roared, "Who am I? Would I joke about my career? This fire was clearly set intentionally!"

"Where is the evidence? Do you have evidence?" the reporter pressed on.

Lin Gao was speechless for a moment, he really had no evidence.

Just then, Wang Yuyan stood up.

"I know who set the fire!"

The whole place was in an uproar.

Wang Yuyan said calmly: "I saw with my own eyes that someone was sneaking around the set with a lighter in his hand..."

Read more latest popular novels at 6.9*shuba!

"Who is it? Did you see who it is?"

Reporters swarmed over and asked questions at once.

Wang Yuyan shook her head.

"I didn't see his face clearly, but I remember his clothes..."

Lin Gao's mind moved, and he immediately ordered his men to look for the suspicious person based on Wang Yuyan's description.

After several days of investigation, the police finally caught the arsonist.

It turned out that this person was sent by Lin Gao's competitor in order to sabotage Lin Gao's filming.

The truth came to light, Lin Gao was cleared of all charges and won the sympathy of the public.

However, the damage caused by the fire is irreparable.

The filming of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" was forced to be interrupted, and Lin Gao also fell into a huge dilemma.

Not only did he lose a lot of money, but more importantly, he lost his confidence.

He locked himself in the room, refusing to eat or drink, and spent the whole day drinking to drown his sorrows.

Wang Yuyan was very worried about him and knocked on his door every day, urging him to cheer up.

"Boss Lin, you can't stay depressed like this. You still have us. We all believe in you!"

"Trust me? Trust me on what?"

Lin Gao said dejectedly, "I have nothing now, what qualifications do I have to make a movie?"

"You still have talent! You still have dreams!"

Wang Yuyan said firmly, "Although this fire burned down the studio, it can't burn away your talent or your dream!"

Lin Gao looked at the weak yet strong woman in front of him, and a glimmer of hope ignited in his heart.

"Wang Yuyan..."

He murmured, "You...you really believe me?"

Wang Yuyan nodded.

"I believe in you, just like I believe in Duan Yu..."

Lin Gao's eyes suddenly became profound.

"Duan Yu...you...you really know him?"

Wang Yuyan did not answer, but just gave a mysterious smile.

Just then, Lin Gao's cell phone suddenly rang.

He answered the phone and a familiar voice came over.

"Director Lin, I'm Director Zhang, I want to talk to you about cooperation..."

Lin Gao's heart skipped a beat. Could it be... could it be that a turning point has come?
On the other end of the phone, Director Zhang's voice was filled with a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal: "Director Lin, I heard that your "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" had some accidents? What a pity!
