The group was kicked out, and low presence means they are bad?
Chapter 401 Disappointment
“It’s been so long, why hasn’t there been any news about the collaboration between ‘Rampage’ and Netflix?”
In a girls' dormitory at Linjiang Normal University, Wang Peini said in confusion.
It is now January 1th, and more than a week has passed since Chu Liya started to promote "Kuang".
What is surprising is that after such a long time, there seems to be no sign of cooperation between "Furious" and Netflix.
Although there are some rumors in this regard on Weibo, those tweets seem to be fake at first glance.
"Maybe some of the plots of "The Rush" were a little broken in the later stages, so Bai Xingjian didn't have the confidence to promote this drama to Netflix?"
Liu Yue crossed her arms and said thoughtfully.
The drama "Storm" ended a few days ago.
The mid-to-late plot of the drama, as well as the finale, still caused a lot of complaints from netizens.
As a result, the rating on Douban dropped from 9.6 at the beginning of the broadcast to 8.5, a drop of 1.1 points.
"Alas, what a pity that such a good drama like "Kuang Biu" collapsed in the late stage. I thought Bai Xingjian would become a god in one fell swoop!"
Luo Xi expressed his own opinion, "If "Kuang Bi" had not collapsed, Bai Xingjian would have been the king of the domestic film and television drama market. He would be the first person to become famous by making movies at a young age!"
Wang Pei Ni sneered upon hearing this. "Even if the drama "Kuang Biu" collapsed in the later stages, it cannot change the fact that Bai Xingjian is already the number one of the younger generation. In the current entertainment industry, is there anyone younger than him who has made movies and TV dramas with higher box office and ratings than him? You can't find a single person, okay?"
"That's the truth. Directors with higher box office than Bai Xingjian, directors older than him, directors younger than him...
Well, it seems that there is no director in our country who is younger than Bai Xingjian."
As she was talking, Liu Yue was a little stunned. "Bai Xingjian seems to be only 22 or 23 years old now?"
"23." Lai Jie responded.
"Ugh!"
Luo Xi sighed heavily and said, "Bai Xingjian is just too young and lacks experience. If the show "Kuang Biao" hadn't collapsed in the later stages, it might have become a TV show that has never been seen before and will never be seen again."
“But why do I feel like the collapse of the show ‘Kuang Biu’ in the later stages is not Bai Xingjian’s fault?”
Recalling the situation in the drama "Kuang Biu" where the actors' lip movements did not match the lines, Liu Yue said: "It is obvious that Bai Xingjian filmed some content that should not be filmed, so the relevant departments blocked the review and rectification.
If this were not the case, there wouldn’t be these minor plot breakdowns in the later stages of “The Rush”, which resulted in many plot points not being explained clearly.”
"That's indeed the feeling." Lai Jie nodded, obviously agreeing with Liu Yue's statement.
"Ah, you are still too young and inexperienced." Rossi said with some regret.
"I can only say that the censorship by the relevant departments is too strict. They can't even shoot a TV series freely. Where is the freedom of speech?"
Wang Peini raised her eyebrows and started to complain.
Apparently, the small plot collapse in the latter part of "The Storm" also made her quite angry.
"It's lonely at the top. This is not something we can discuss."
Liu Yue smiled and raised her eyebrows, saying, "I just hope that this small collapse in the plot of "Storm" didn't hit Bai Xingjian too hard, otherwise I'm still worried that he will never recover from this."
"It seems to be the same."
Luo Xi nodded. "It's mainly because Bai Xingjian has had such a smooth road since he entered the film and television industry. Suddenly, something like this happened to Kuang Biao. Maybe Bai Xingjian will really suffer some setbacks."
"This may be the disadvantage of being successful at a young age." Lai Jie is also quite worried about this.
Wang Peini pouted. Her ideas were completely different from those of Liu Yue, Lai Jie and Luo Xi.
"If Bai Xingjian was devastated by this incident, then how desperate he must have been when he was kicked out of the group GoldenCold."
Wang Pei Ni expressed her own opinion: "So, I advise you to relax a little. Bai Xingjian is not that fragile!"
Lai Jie smiled and nodded, "Well, we still have to have some confidence in Bai Xingjian."
While the girls were discussing Bai Xingjian's condition, Sophia and Charlie were also discussing Bai Xingjian.
"Today is January 1th, and Bai Xingjian has not come to us for cooperation. It seems that he has really given up on exporting "Kuang Biu"."
In a high-end hotel in Magic City, Charlie said in a rather unexpected tone.
Originally, he had expected that Bai Xingjian would take the initiative to approach them for cooperation.
But it has been more than a week and there is still no news about this?
From this, it can be seen that Bai Xingjian seems to have no interest in Netflix at all?
It's really strange.
"It seems that Bai Xingjian is a self-aware person."
Sophia was quite impressed with Bai Xingjian. "Besides that, he should also be quite knowledgeable about Netflix and the international film and television market."
If you put yourself in Sofia's shoes, if she were Bai Xingjian, she would not choose to put the drama "Crazy" on Netflix.
The main reason is that the benefits are not great.
Moreover, when Netflix considers the issue of revenue, it may choose to reject the drama "Knives Out".
Netflix doesn't want to do anything that doesn't make a profit.
If Sophia and Charlie insisted on doing this, it would be a thankless task for both of them.
"Oh, what a pity! I thought I could have an intimate contact with Bai Xingjian."
Charlie shook his head with some regret.
He and Sofia have been in China for a long time, and the cooperation plan between Netflix and YouTV has been finalized, so there is no need for them to stay here any longer.
In three days, they will return home to America.
"You want to see Bai Xingjian, but there are ways to do it."
Sophia glanced at Charlie and said with a smile, "Go directly to Phoenix Pictures and tell them your name. I think Bai Xingjian would still be happy to meet you."
Charlie was indeed tempted by this proposal.
But after thinking it over carefully, he shook his head and rejected the proposal: "I don't want to use my identity as a person in charge of Netflix to make a big splash. If those people in the company knew about this, my life would be very difficult."
"Hahaha, don't worry, I won't tell tales." Sophia assured Charlie.
"It's not that I don't trust you, but I don't trust the staff at Phoenix Pictures."
Charlie smiled. "The marketing accounts in China are very powerful. If I went to Phoenix Pictures privately, I don't know what kind of stories they would spread."
"Hahaha."
Sophia laughed out loud again, "Since you are so timid, it seems that you will have to miss Bai Xingjian." "Ah, there is nothing we can do about it."
Charlie also sighed in disappointment, but soon he changed the subject and continued, "But who knows, what if Bai Xingjian comes to our senses one day and brings the drama "Kuang Biao" to us again? Although the drama "Kuang Biao" has some collapses in the later plot, it is undeniable that "Kuang Biao" is the TV series with the highest ratings in China in all these years. The collapse of the subsequent plot is not a bad thing in the overall view of the whole drama."
But when Sophia heard this, she just blinked and didn't express her opinion.
Obviously, she did not agree with Charlie's point of view.
To be precise, Sofia just disagreed with the idea that Bai Xingjian would approach them to collaborate on the drama "Kuang Kuang".
Seeing that she had no reaction, Charlie was also a little discouraged. He said, "It seems that this trip to China still left some regrets..."
After saying this, Charlie began to feel sad.
Not long after, Sophia's cell phone suddenly rang.
She picked up the phone and saw that it was a strange call from Beijing.
Sophia frowned. Only a very few people knew her cell phone number. She basically also knew the number of those who had her cell phone number, and there were also notes.
But now?
Sophia really wanted to hang up the phone, but after holding the phone and thinking for a few seconds, she chose to answer it.
After all, it's just answering a phone call and it won't waste any time.
Moreover, she had no particular aversion to such unfamiliar calls.
As soon as the call was connected, an unexpected voice came out: "Hello, Sophia, I'm Bai Xingjian from Phoenix Pictures. Is there a chance I can talk to you?"
Sophia didn't turn on the speakerphone, so she was the only one in the room who heard this.
Her calm eyes suddenly widened.
He was obviously surprised by the voice coming from the phone.
"Of course." Sophia was also a straightforward person and directly agreed to Bai Xingjian's proposal.
At this time, Charlie, who was secretly grieving aside, also noticed the movement on Sophia's side.
Seeing the change in her expression, he immediately came over.
Seeing this, Sophia turned on the speakerphone on her phone.
"So when are you free? I'll arrange the location and have someone pick you up."
Bai Xingjian's voice continued to come out from the phone.
However, Charlie did not recognize that it was Bai Xingjian's voice. Instead, a rather disgusted expression appeared on his face.
"Is it that pretty boy from Youshi who asked you out again?" Charlie complained without any scruples.
During the period of signing the cooperation agreement with Youshi, Sophia and Charlie's life was actually not dull.
There was a young man at Youshi who launched a fierce pursuit of Sophia.
The intensity of the noise was so intense that it annoyed Charlie.
So even though Sophia was talking to that person on the phone, Charlie didn't care and said whatever he wanted to say.
Sophia, who heard Charlie say this, smiled lightly, covered her phone and said:
"It's not that person, it's Bai Xingjian."
"I really don't know why you still answer his call. Isn't he just the son of the CEO of Youshi? What's so good about it...what???
Is it Bai Xingjian? !”
Charlie, who reacted immediately, was stunned and almost took off on the spot.
"Yes, it's Bai Xingjian."
Sophia nodded, then let go of her hand and said to Bai Xingjian on the other end of the phone:
"Then everything will be up to you. I'll send you a time and address."
Bai Xingjian's hearty laughter came from the other end of the phone, "Okay, I look forward to your reply."
After the conversation ended, the two exchanged a few more pleasantries before hanging up the phone completely.
Charlie came over and asked quickly, "What's going on? Why did Bai Xingjian suddenly call us? Does he want to cooperate with us on the play "Kuangchuan"? "
Charlie's tone was quite excited, and he was obviously very excited about Bai Xingjian's call.
"Although Bai Xingjian didn't tell us his purpose on the phone, I feel it's pretty close."
After saying this, Sophia sighed.
She also thought that Bai Xingjian would not use the drama "Knives Out" to seek cooperation between Phoenix Pictures and Netflix.
But the reality is just the opposite.
"What's wrong? Are you in this state... a little disappointed with Bai Xingjian?" Charlie asked, blinking.
Come to think of it, Sophia had just vowed that Bai Xingjian would never use the drama "Kuang Kuang" to cooperate with them, but within a few minutes, Bai Xingjian called.
This feeling of being slapped in the face would be unpleasant no matter who it is, right?
As he thought about it, Charlie suddenly felt some sympathy for Sophia.
At the same time, Bai Xingjian's image in his mind also shrank a bit.
"To say no, it seems like there is a little bit, but to say yes, it seems a bit too much."
Sophia pursed her lips and asked tentatively, "Perhaps our expectations of Bai Xingjian are too high?"
"Yes."
Charlie nodded and continued to ask, "So what did Bai Xingjian talk about with you just now? To the point that you even sent him the time and address, is he trying to hook up with you?"
As he said this, Charlie's eyes swept over Sophia's body.
For any man with normal sexual orientation, this curvy figure is like a magic sword that can kill men without leaving any blood, right?
But Sophia sneered when she heard this and said:
"No matter how despicable Bai Xingjian is, he wouldn't want to target me, right? He just wants to discuss cooperation with us at Netflix. The specific content is probably about his movie "Rampage". Telling him the time and place is just to make it easier for him to send a special car to pick us up. It's not as dirty as you think."
Charlie scratched his head a little embarrassedly when he heard this, "Not bad, not bad. So from this point of view, Bai Xingjian's quality in this aspect is still good."
the other side.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah~"
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xingjian sneezed several times in succession.
He looked up at the scenery outside the window and said with a smile: "I just want to cooperate with you guys. There is no need to discuss so much behind the scenes, right?" (End of this chapter)
