Full-time actor

Chapter 226 [53] "My drama made my other two dramas?" 》

Sometimes, Chen Yu is very conflicted.

He knew that he could not save anyone, such as Mei Yanfang in front of him or Zhang Guorong who was about to jump off the building.

He's not that great either. He said he ran directly to the downstairs of the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Hong Kong to save him?

Only superheroes do this, Chen Yu is just an ordinary person.

However, he also had hesitation in his heart.

After all, Zhang Guorong's roles in "Farewell My Concubine", "A Better Tomorrow", etc... were all good things in Chen Yu's memory.

But can you save people from depression and suffering from illness once and for the rest of their lives?

To judge someone by yourself, you are not him, and you don't know how painful the other person's life is.

His death only made the fans, friends and relatives around him, and the one in front of him, Mei Yanfang, his only friend in the circle, miserable.

Zhang Guorong himself was completely liberated.

Chen Yu actually liked this actor in his previous life, so after his death, I also studied his interviews and death news for a period of time. After knowing that he was depressed, it was really difficult; this kind of disease is basically impossible to get out of.

Coupled with some reasons about his personality and the sequelae after entering the movie, these multiple pressures forced him to take the leap.

Therefore, Chen Yu could only say it casually.

As for the rest, there's really nothing he can do. There's only so much he can do.

But fate is so magical sometimes.

"sign?"

After Mei Yanfang heard Chen Yu's words, she immediately nodded: "Okay, I will ask him for it myself when I go back tomorrow!"

"Watch him sign it for you!"

"hehe!"

Zhou Xingchi also covered his mouth and laughed, because what Mei Yanfang said was quite funny.

"Really?"

Chen Yu was shocked.

I didn't expect that this casual comment would have such a result.

Tomorrow...he only knows what the situation will be like tomorrow!

"Of course it is true. Do you want any blessings?"

Mei Yanfang made a joke, and Chen Yu immediately said: "Then I have to think about it carefully!"

"Haha, yes!"

Mei Yanfang thought Chen Yu was joking, but she didn't expect that Chen Yu was really thinking about it. Then she asked the hotel for a piece of paper and wrote a paragraph.

"Did you know that there is a kind of bird without legs? He can only fly around in the sky in his life. He can only land once in his life, and that is when he dies!"

This is the only movie in which Zhang Guorong won the Academy Award for Best Actor, for his lines in "Days of Being Wild".

"One of my favorite lines!"

Chen Yu handed the paper to Mei Yanfang, and Mei Yanfang glanced at it. Zhou Xingchi next to him also came forward curiously, and they both nodded at the same time.

"Good taste!"

Mei Yanfang smiled and put the paper into her bag.

Of course she and Zhou Xingchi knew this line.

"Days of Being Wild", this movie also occupies a place in the history of Hong Kong movies. It can also be regarded as the famous work of the Sunglasses King. Although his debut film "Mongkok Night" was also good, it was "Days of Being Wild" that made him famous. , won the Golden Statue and Golden Horse Best Director.

"Mongkok" is just a nomination.

"Sister Mei, are you taking the flight today or tomorrow?"

"Tonight, we will arrive in Xiangjiang at around 3 o'clock in the morning!"

Mei Yanfang raised her wrist and checked the time. Her flight ticket was after 10 o'clock in the evening, so she could leave from the hotel at 8 o'clock in time.

"How about I send you and Master Xing off?"

Chen Yu didn't see the two assistants, so he took the initiative to bring it up.

"It's okay, I have a driver and assistant!"

"I'll leave by myself in a moment!"

Both Xingye and Anita Mui politely refused, so Chen Yu had no choice but to give up. The three of them started eating while talking and laughing; the autograph was just a small interlude.

"Come here tomorrow afternoon. I have something to do, so I have to leave first!"

"Sister Fang, see you in Xiangjiang!"

Zhou Xingchi patted Chen Yu on the shoulder, greeted Mei Yanfang, but left early.

"It's difficult for Xingzi now!"

After Mei Yanfang waited for Zhou Xingchi to leave, she suddenly sighed and said, of course Chen Yu knew what he meant by difficulties; Xiang Jia's banning order was obviously not a joke. No one in Xiangjiang has invested in his movies now!

He can only rely on Hollywood and the Mainland. The last movie "Shaolin Soccer" offended Universal Pictures, the only company that had a hard fight with the Xiang family. The two parties have now gone to court and are currently fighting a lawsuit.

It’s another issue of uneven interests.

"I hope his new drama will be a big hit!"

Mei Yanfang took a sip of tea, suddenly looked at Chen Yu, and smiled heartily: "I haven't congratulated you in person for receiving such a high honor. Congratulations, Yu Zai!"

"When I saw you practicing on the rooftop, I knew you would get up one day!"

"I didn't expect it to be so fast!"

Mei Yanfang held the cup high and touched it with Chen Yu.

"Thank you!"

Chen Yu also used tea instead of wine.

After chatting for a while, Mei Yanfang checked the time and said apologetically: "Yuzai, I have to go. I'll make an appointment with you next time I come to the mainland. Or, when you get to Xiangjiang, you must call me!"

She made a gesture of making a phone call, and then hugged Chen Yu.

"gone!"

After patting Chen Yu on the shoulder, Mei Yanfang walked out of the restaurant calmly.

She is completely like a big sister.

"Hello, pay the bill!"

Chen Yu stretched out his hand, but the waiter ran over: "Hello, the order for this table has been purchased!"

"When did you buy it?"

He didn't even see who paid.

"boss!"

"..."

Only then did Chen Yu remember that Mei Yanfang seemed to have said that this restaurant was opened by her friend?

"Okay, sorry!"

Chen Yu came over to eat and drink for free, and even got an audition for Zhou Xingchi's new movie. If this kind of thing had happened to others, they would have been so happy that they couldn't find it.

There is no exchange of interests at all.

"Do you want to support the younger generation?"

There are indeed very few such stars in the Xiangjiang circle; although many big shots are saying this, such as Cheng Long, Hong Jingbao, etc., they actually all have interests.

Except for Zhang Guorong and Anita Mui, in the years after their death, many times, they were indeed unconditional help.

The so-called Mei Family Class is an organization formed spontaneously by these promoted juniors; it is different from Cheng Long and Hong Jingbao’s Married Family Class and Hong Family Class.

"And...it's been less than a year, right?"

Chen Yu can't remember exactly when Mei Yanfang died, but it was almost the end of this year.

After taking a taxi, Chen Yu returned to the house rented by Chen Peidong in silence.

The whole family is nestled there, watching the upcoming episode of "Golden Pink Family" on time!

The current episode of "Golden Dust" has aired to its 20th episode, and today's episode is episode 21 and 22, which is the climax of "Golden Dust" - the wedding of Jin Yanxi and Leng Qingqiu.

Not surprisingly, the ratings will go up to a higher level.

However, what Chen Yu is most concerned about is another movie. To be honest, no matter how high the ratings are, "Golden Dust" will be popular first among Chen Kun and Dong Jie. No matter how good his character Liu Chunjiang is, he has not yet reached the end of his life. So the reputation is not improved much.

Bai Xiuzhu's character is about to be reversed. Liu Yifei has not paid attention to the Internet at all during this period. The wave of netizens who scolded her some time ago have begun to change their focus.

As for "Conquer", Chen Yu is the male lead. Even if it is only on satellite TV, he is still very optimistic about it.

In his previous life, Sun Honglei was unknown, but he became famous overnight thanks to this drama.

In this life, Chen Yu has been looking forward to it for a long time.

In the end, whether his acting skills are better or whether Sun Honglei is awesome, the ratings will determine the winner.

"It's 8 o'clock!"

Chen Yu listened to the "Secret Fragrance" theme song he sang coming from the TV outside, but he picked up his mobile phone and sent a message to Gao Qunshu.

Gao Qunshu is also waiting for news from Imperial TV.

Whether "Conquest" can be a hit or not, the ratings of Imperial TV are crucial.

A fire on a local TV station proves nothing; a fire on a satellite TV station is a sign of a nationwide fire.

After waiting anxiously for more than a minute, Chen Yu finally received a call from Gao Qunshu.

"In the beginning, the national ratings were 0.75%, and the local ratings were 3.45%..."

"So low?"

It's easy to say that the national ratings are 0.75%, which is a normal start; but the local ratings are only 3.45%, which is... a bit low!

"impossible!"

"Conquest" was so popular in the previous life, how can it be that this Imperial TV station is not popular?

If the local station was not popular, Chen Yu would suspect that he had not performed well, but it was clear that Chang'an Comprehensive News was popular.

Which part went wrong?

"The feedback I received from Imperial TV is that the drama is in conflict!"

"Old people in the capital only like to watch TV dramas on three channels, and you know that!"

CCTV 1, 8, Imperial TV.

Just these 3, gone.

"I'm not afraid of CCTV's one set. "Toward the Republic" jumped on it. Your "Golden Pink Family" in the 8th set is too strong!"

Currently, the most popular drama in China is still on CCTV 8, with a ratings of over 8% nationwide!

And it’s a prime time slot at the same time, how to play it?

"So, we can only watch the follow-up!"

"Today, I guess it would be good if the local ratings can break 5%!"

Gao Qunshu's analysis is not unreasonable; in addition, today's "Golden Dust" is really fierce, with the climax of the wedding, others will definitely not like to switch to other channels and watch other TV.

"Wrong strategy!"

"Who would have thought that your drama would be so popular? I can only wait for the second round in Tianjin. I hope it can be missed with "Golden Dust"!"

Come on, the drama that hinders my popularity is actually my drama?

The key thing that left Chen Yu speechless was that he also filmed "Toward a Republic".

The three dramas currently occupy the 8-10pm time of old people in the capital.

"Satellite TV, we still can't compete with CCTV!"

Chen Yu can only wait until the broadcast is finished today and then check it out. No, he really can only wait for the ones in Tianjin and Hebei.

His original wish of expecting a big fire today seems to be in vain again?

"Don't worry, wait for 1 episode!"

Gao Qunshu came to comfort Chen Yu, and Chen Yu smiled: "I'm not in a hurry, it's all my drama anyway!"

"Haha, that's true!"

An hour later, the ratings for "Golden Dust" and "Conquer" came out at the same time.

"Golden Dust" has indeed reached a new level, with an average ratings of 8.36%!

As for "Conquer", to everyone's surprise, although it didn't start well, after one episode, the national ratings actually exceeded 1%; and the regional ratings also exceeded Gao Qunshu's estimate, exceeding 6%. , reaching 6.17%!

"OK!"

"With such a huge hit in a popular drama, it's so high in just one episode, and it's sure to pick up in the follow-up!"

"How many days until "Golden Dust" ends?"

"8 days, the finale in 8 days!"

"The Family" has a total of 40 episodes, while "Conquest" has 20 episodes, and "Toward a Republic" has 80 episodes, which will not be released until early April.

"Can you please help me ask about the ratings of "Toward a Republic"? I think they must have dropped!"

"We seem to have robbed the audience of Yang 1!"

If "The Golden Family" can't compete with it, the viewers of "Toward a Republic" will most likely be attracted to Imperial TV.

Chen Yu plucked up the courage and sent a message to Jiana Shahati. Unexpectedly, the other party responded quickly.

He called me directly: "You are so cruel, you have three dramas scheduled at the same time!"

"It suddenly dropped by 0.23% today. It was still up yesterday. We are still analyzing whether there is a problem with the plot. We just found out that there is a new drama on Imperial TV!"

"When I saw it, wasn't it your boy?"

Jiana Shahati was laughing and scolding, and Chen Yu quickly laughed and said: "Sister, stop scolding, stop scolding!"

"Get out of here, you won't be able to do this for ten meals!"

"Okay, okay, as long as you're not angry, don't say ten meals, I'll give you a month too!"

Hearing that Jiana Shahati was not really angry, Chen Yu immediately felt relieved.

"Actually, I'm a little disappointed with this show!"

"what?"

No, at least it still has a 3% ratings?

Although being placed on CCTV 1 is indeed like rushing to grandma’s house, it’s still a ratings show after all!

"It was reported!"

"It's very possible... to ban the broadcast. We've been dealing with this recently!"

"If nothing else happens, the results will be out tomorrow!"

"..."

Chen Yu is really emo.

No wonder Jana Shahati doesn’t care much about the ratings. There are other things more outrageous than low ratings.

In a previous life, was "Toward a Republic" banned?

After Chen Yu thought about it for a while, he was really speechless.

It seems...it is indeed banned.

He really couldn’t find the resources on several major viewing platforms!

However, Chen Yu didn't want to tell the truth, so he could only comfort him: "Sister Jiana, no way. How could Yang Yi's drama be sealed just by saying it?"

"..."

"You kid really don't understand. Yang Yi's drama has great influence, so it was banned!"

If you change to another satellite TV, it will be nothing.

But it is Yang Yi who faces the possibility of being banned, and Yang Yi has the most banned dramas!

"Man proposes, God disposes!"

"I'll tell you tomorrow, hang up!"

"..."

Chen Yu had no choice but to shake his head helplessly. Wouldn't it be wrong if "Toward a Republic" was banned from broadcasting tomorrow?

Good for Conquest?

Chen Yu really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

If we co-author until the end, we are hurting each other!

"My play made my other two plays?" 》

Um? ?
