China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

On the night of May 2012, 5, the moonlight was beautiful.

The moonlight was as beautiful as water, pouring down from the sky, casting mottled light and shadows.

When all the characters in the plot came out and left smoothly, they laughed happily, said some warm words to each other, and gave each other happy hugs.

Guan Ling finally shouted out the last sentence.

"Ka! Congratulations everyone, the filming of "Perfect Strangers" has been successfully completed!"

Everyone was having a great time, with smiles on their faces.

In the last segment, the actors themselves actually didn’t understand it, but after Guan Ling finished talking, they realized that this was not a reconciliation, but more like a parallel world.

Everyone has secrets, and before the secrets are revealed, everyone is just like the final ending, so warm, everyday and casual.

After the secret was revealed, everyone's world became so turbulent and miserable.

This is human nature.

Guan Ling returned to the hotel that the crew had booked near Deng Chao's home.

Everyone will basically evacuate tomorrow.

A movie that was shot in just ten days surprised everyone.

Everyone has also felt the power that this drama may have after it is edited and completed. Relationships between people are like this, fragile, and there will be privacy between people and their significant other, but everyone should cherish this opportunity for privacy instead of doing whatever they want.

There are always light and darkness in human relationships. If you really can't stand hypocrisy, then you will only destroy yourself selfishly.

In life, how can we make our relationships last? Perhaps, before they reach the bottom line, only four words can provide the key.

That's the rare ignorance.

But the news of the completion of the filming had just come out, and Guan Ling hadn't said anything yet, and that night, Zhuo Wei made a big move.

In fact, there are a lot of news in the entertainment industry today. The most anticipated one is the premiere of "Avengers" which will start tomorrow.

Han Sanpin is very smart. He wanted "Avengers" to be released during the May Day holiday, but in order to prevent this movie from competing with "Aquaman" at the box office, Han Sanpin deliberately scheduled the release of this movie on May 5, delaying the release of the movie by a week.

Therefore, there are still many discussions on this topic in the circle.

But all of this is not as important as a piece of news from Zhuo Wei.

At 10:55 in the evening, Zhuo Wei posted a message on Weibo.

“The new play ‘The Stranger’ has just finished filming, which is very gratifying.

But what worries a well-known director even more is perhaps the love status of a male and female protagonist in the play. Since the filming of "The Stranger" requires in-depth checking of mobile phones, there was suspected conflict between the two during the filming of the crew.

After we followed the filming, we clearly captured a certain conversation, which was intense and clearly articulated. From then on, the rumors about the woman surnamed An and the Four Famous Detectives, Yan Zifei, were all true.

It's a pity that the fertile land of Hou Tu can't hold the old tree roots tightly! "

Zhuo Wei’s news instantly became a hot topic in the entertainment circle.

Although Zhuo Wei did not mention anyone by name, but there were hints in his words that people could tell who you were talking about.

What a great "Stranger", what a state of love, what clear words, what a great scandalous woman named An, famous for catching flying swallows!

Although no one’s name was mentioned, it was just like revealing an ID number.

This point is considered late, but not too late, because most of the people who want to have fun are online.

Many people on the Internet immediately started to watch the show.

"Zhuo Laogou is still awesome. He doesn't have any actual evidence, but he just directly triggered a hot search topic. Where are the photos and videos? You just talk nonsense, if you have the guts, post them."

"Posting a message without leaving a picture is like posting a picture without leaving a seed, both are garbage!"

"Oh my god, my Deng Dynasty is not going to be in trouble, is it? The Four hasn't even been released yet?"

"The famous director is Guan, the male and female protagonists are Deng Chao and Sun Li, and 'The Stranger' is 'Perfect Stranger'. I have guessed all of these, but who is this rumored woman named An, and the famous catcher Yan Zifei, referring to?"

"I feel a little sorry for Director Guan. Director Guan is good at judging people. Not many of the actors he selected have failed! No, not even one has failed."

"Is Liu Dehua not collapsed?"

"Oh yeah, this one counts. But it doesn't have much of an impact."

"I feel like this incident has had a huge impact. The filming of this drama has just finished! Director Guan must be numb now!"

"It's a pity that Hou Tu, this guy Zhuo Lao Gou is still talented. The Emperor of Heaven and the Empress of Earth, isn't it referring to Zhen Huan? This is almost the same as naming someone. The term "old tree root" is also very cultural."

A storm of public opinion arose instantly, and there was a heated discussion about the play on the Internet.

"Is Director Guan feeling pressured now?"

"The new drama has just finished filming and hasn't even been released yet, but this kind of news has already appeared. Will there be a boycott?"

"Perfect Stranger's Deng Chao and Sun Li are suspected of divorce, the incident started when the crew checked their phones."

For a time, there was a storm!
Now, netizens have some understanding of what Director Guan said during the interview.

"Try not to watch this movie with a boyfriend or girlfriend or a couple."

"Is this movie really a romantic horror movie?"

Aren’t Deng Chao and his wife very much in love? How come they broke up after only ten days of filming a movie?

"Fuck, that's scary!"

"I have always wanted to break up with my girlfriend, but I can't find a good excuse. I hope this movie will be released soon and help me."

Many people were also shocked by this guy's speech.

There are really all kinds of people in this world.

……

"Dong dong dong."

There was a knock on the door inside the hotel. Guan Ling had just finished taking a shower. He tucked in his bathrobe thoroughly and opened the door.

"Something happened, Director Guan."

Wan Qian stepped into the house from outside, then turned back and closed the door.

His movements were so smooth that even Guan Ling was a little confused.

"What happened?" Guan Ling asked curiously.

"Zhuo Wei exposed Deng Chao's cheating. Although he didn't mention anyone by name, everyone could see it clearly and it caused a big uproar online."

After Wan Qian finished speaking, Guan Ling exclaimed curiously.

Then, Wan Qian saw something that completely overturned her worldview. Guan Ling took out his phone, opened Weibo, looked at the latest news on Weibo, and then remained silent for a moment, without exercising his rights as a Weibo shareholder, such as removing the trending search.

He hesitated for a moment, then took out another cell phone.

A beeping sound was heard when the call was made, and a voice came from the other end that made Wan Qian tremble three times.

"Hello, Mr. Guan! Long time no see."

"Has it been a long time?" Guan Ling said with a smile, "You came to my crew to shoot, but you didn't even say hello to me?"

"Please forgive me, Director Guan. I really didn't go there for you. I just sent someone to take a few Reuters photos so that he could sell them to make a little money and also help promote you, Director Guan. But I didn't expect that he would take such a big photo."

Zhuo Wei said, "I know these two people might affect Director Guan's new play, so I didn't reveal any evidence. Although it seems like I named them, I also saved their face. To be honest, I knew Director Guan might call me, but my purpose was not to affect the play."

"That's because of Deng Chao and his wife." Guan Ling said.

"It's not that I have to target anyone. I'll take pictures when I see them. This is not targeting. I haven't taken pictures of Guan's actors in the past few years, but there are more top stars in the circle than Guan's. Deng Chao and Sun Li are so popular, and they are self-employed. Wouldn't it be a waste if I don't take pictures of them?"

Wan Qian was originally sitting on the edge of Guan Ling's bed, a little distance away from Guan Ling.

But because he was curious about what was going on on the phone, he moved closer and closer, and soon he was close to Guan Ling's phone, listening intently.

"Have you contacted them?"

"I'm waiting." Zhuo Wei said, "I'm waiting for both of them, and also for you, Director Guan. Just one word from you, and I can remove this news. At least before your movie is released, there won't be any further topics about this matter."

Guan Ling said: "Then I still have a lot of face."

"To be honest, there aren't many people I admire, but Director Guan is definitely one of them." Zhuo Wei said, "Your strategy for capturing and releasing me really impressed me, and Director Guan has been very supportive of my company over the past few years, and I've seen it all. Really, I don't care about the amount, I care about respect. We paparazzi are also human beings, not dogs.

We are supervisors, don’t you think? Others looked down on us, but Director Guan didn’t send me to jail for a few days, but gave me the first support. I will always be grateful for this.”

Wan Qian's breathing became heavy at this time.

Having been in the circle for so long, Wan Qian knew very well that there was nothing new under the sun.

She has also seen a lot of evil in the entertainment industry.
But this relatively well-known paparazzi has previously recorded many classic stories, including the century-long reunion of Xie Tingfeng and Wang Fei, the photo of Liu Xiaoqing being released from prison, Gao Yuanyuan holding hands with Xia Yu and suspected of interference, and Gu Changwei playing games in the car for fifty minutes late at night.

The most recent news is the one about Gu Changwei.

When the rumor was circulating, Gu Changwei called Zhuo Wei overnight to beg for mercy in order to prevent him from exposing the relevant content. In the end, Zhuo Wei magnanimously did not expose the woman's news. He was moved by sympathy and posted a message online saying that he should show mercy where possible, which was considered as not pursuing the matter relentlessly.

But the couple have appeared occasionally recently, and their moods have not been very good. This has been the case for the past two or three years.

But Wan Qian really didn't expect that Zhuo Wei actually had this kind of relationship with Director Guan. Was he supported by Director Guan? It didn't seem like it.

Looking at the relationship between Director Guan and Zhuo Wei, it doesn't seem very familiar. It means that the two of them have reached some agreement privately. Zhuo Wei seldom shoots Director Guan and the people under Director Guan.

As long as it involves Guan Dao, they just don't care.

No wonder there have been a lot of news about Director Guan circulating on the Internet over the years, but not many paparazzi know the details.

"Amazing."

Wan Qian's chest rose and fell as she whispered that she had really learned something from coming to see Director Guan this time.

This circle is too chaotic, big directors and paparazzi are now partners!
With her mind in a mess, Wan Qian continued to listen. When she lowered her head, she realized that Director Guan was actually wearing a bathrobe.

Wan Qian instantly transformed into Miao Renfeng. Looking down from Director Guan's collar, she could see the faint flickering outline of Director Guan's abdominal muscles.

"Big, big muscle tyrant!"

Wan Qian was a little surprised. Director Guan was a director. Other directors had big bellies, but Director Guan was a rare person in the entertainment industry who could maintain an absolutely perfect figure, almost like any male star.

Looking down carefully, Wan Qian's face was a little tipsy and flushed.

"What am I doing?"

Wan Qian felt her face getting hot.

Guan Ling is still communicating with Zhuo Wei.

"That means you can't promise not to expose my movie after it's released, right?"

"Of course, I'm giving Director Guan face." Zhuo Wei said, "Exposure has no timeliness, and what I'm doing is not breaking news."

As paparazzi, they are also professional media people and they know that any news about celebrities would be fatal black material.

Once it becomes popular, you will be unable to refute it when you compete with your competitors for roles and their fans start posting messages.

Guan Ling thought for a moment, "If my face is useful, how about I organize a party? You guys talk about it, the details, the three of you talk. I won't get involved."

"Director Guan wants to protect these two people?"

"If what you said is true, if this incident was really caused by checking the phone, then I'm afraid it's my fault." Guan Ling smiled and said, "If I didn't ask the couple to film the movie, this incident wouldn't have happened."

"It's not something that happened in the past few days. It was a bomb that was planted a long time ago. Although we didn't take any photos to prove it, the couple spread the news themselves. They knew about it a long time ago. It's not your fault, Director Guan."

"I still have to save up the money," Guan Ling said, "but don't let me know anything else."

Zhuo Wei said: "Okay, then I will also show my sincerity to them. This matter can be resolved. I am giving them a chance purely for Director Guan's sake."

Wait until you hang up the phone.

Wan Qian was a little dumbfounded and said, "This is... Zhuo Wei from Fengxing Studio?"

Guan Ling nodded: "We have communicated and contacted before."

Wan Qian swallowed her saliva and said, "Why would they do this? Isn't that heartless?"

"I do understand that celebrities' privacy rights are different from those of ordinary people. They earn their rights in public, so their privacy will inevitably be recorded and spread. If you behave properly, then you have nothing to fear. If you don't behave properly and are exposed, you can't blame the paparazzi.

And although paparazzi are not good people, it is rare to work in this industry. I have summarized before that there are many scumbags in the entertainment industry, but there are only three types of people who work hard.

One is to have a strong spiritual yearning, like me, to rise for Chinese entertainment.

One reason is money. Poor people are strong-willed. Zhuo Wei may have put in all his effort, and this is also the reason.

The third one is much simpler, it is purely out of necessity.”

Wan Qian was stunned when she heard this. "Is it because I have no other choice? Or is it because I have no other choice? Director Guan, I hope you didn't pronounce it wrong."

"I didn't." Guan Ling said firmly, "The reason why many directors in the industry work so hard to get access to higher-level funds and greater resources is not just for the sake of female stars, right?"

These words touched Wan Qian's heart.

"Director Guan, you are right, but this matter is indeed disgusting."

"You just finished filming our drama, so there's no need to make a fuss. In fact, this is human nature." Guan Ling said, "It's a good habit to be positive when you see a beautiful woman. There's nothing to be ashamed of. It just needs to be legal, compliant and reasonable, and it must be voluntary. The chaos in this circle is not because of the circle, but because the pace of this circle is too fast and the smell of money is too strong. There's nothing wrong with liking handsome men and beautiful women. It's wrong to use power to oppress others. Those who disagree are not wrong, but are those who agree wrong?"

Guan Ling smiled and said, "It's just a big dream. When you wake up, you can live a good life."

Wan Qian didn't say anything, just looked into Guan Ling's eyes and swallowed. (End of this chapter)
