Became the best actor, the system just finished loading

Chapter 53: Stop pretending, let’s show down (ask for monthly ticket)
On April 4, Qi Hao attended the Beijing University Student Film Festival.

Li Lianjie and Liu Dehua were unable to come due to their schedules, and the crew of "The Warlords" could not not bring any of the main actors, so Qi Hao had to come to accompany Chen Kexin, Ye Weimin and others.

Moreover, the film festival has already hinted to him that he might be given the Best Popular Actor Award.

On the red carpet, Chen Kexin, Ye Weimin, Qi Hao, and screenwriter Qin Tiannan walked together.

Qin Tiannan is also an old acquaintance.

Qi Hao previously played Han Zhibang in "Seven Swords", which he wrote.

He participated in the screenwriting of "The Warlords" and "The Disciples", including "The Siege of the City in October", for which Qi Hao has already signed a letter of intent.

In order to accommodate the media visit and also because of a headache, Qi Hao only arrived on the day of the closing ceremony.

Therefore, he did not have time to style his hair, which looked a little messy. He wore a beige shirt on the upper body and dark blue jeans on the lower body. The trouser legs were casually rolled up, exposing his ankles, which made him look casual yet fashionable.

The glasses on his nose gave a different feeling to the fans and media at the scene.

Being good-looking means you can be willful.

Others put a lot of effort into dressing up, but their looks are still not as casual as his.

"What were you busy with last night? Why are you working so late today?" Ye Weimin asked with a smile while waving to the audience on both sides.

There is no doubt that this old bitch is definitely driving.

"Brother, you know me. I don't even have a girlfriend." Qi Hao did not accept such slander.

"When life is going well, you should enjoy it to the fullest. It's better to have a relationship before working hard." Qin Tiannan said.

"Come on, be serious!" Chen Kexin had to interrupt them.

Several people quickly walked to the interview area.

Just a brief interview and then I was let in.

"Qi Hao, I have something to tell you." Ye Weimin called Qi Hao, and Qi Hao had no choice but to follow them to find a place to sit down and talk about things.

"what happened?"

Could it be that the role that was previously agreed upon is going to be taken over by someone else?

Since Qi Hao debuted, he has encountered many such things and he has become accustomed to it.

Of course, he has also snatched roles from others.

For example, the drama "Marrying the Wrong Man" was snatched away from Nie Yuan by him. Some people even thought that Nie Yuan's girlfriend at the time broke up with him because of Qi Hao's interference.

However, if you survive a disaster, there will be a next time.

When casting for "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Nie Yuan and Qi Hao once again became rivals.

The result was another miserable defeat.

The two film and television dramas he starred in afterwards did not make much splash, and now he is at the bottom of the four young actors.

Therefore, although Qi Hao and Nie Yuan were not enemies, they at least had no friendship.

Tong Dawei held his wedding a few days ago, but Qi Hao did not go.

Because Qi Hao and Tong Dawei had only worked together in "Young Justice Bao 2", while Nie Yuan and Tong Dawei were good friends in the circle, Qi Hao's going there would easily attract hatred.

Nie Yuan also came today and greeted Qi Hao when he saw him.

The entertainment industry is like this. No matter what conflicts there are, everyone can only stab each other in the back. On the surface, everyone seems to be in harmony.

Here, Qi Hao followed Ye Weimin, Chen Kexin and Qin Tiannan to find a place to sit down.

"The June start date we said before may not be possible."

Ye Weimin went straight to the point.

He knew that it was very difficult for a popular young actor like Qi Hao to free up his schedule.

It was not easy to find a time slot for "The Besieged City in October".

The pay is not high, it is definitely a friendship price.

Now that they suddenly want to change the schedule, he must explain it clearly in person.

"Why?" Qi Hao was indeed a little unhappy.

Ever since he won the Best Actor award, so many scripts have been handed over to Lao Tian that they are almost piling up like a mountain.

There are many big directors and big productions that everyone is vying for, and some of them pay a lot of money.

In order to leave enough time for "The Siege of the City in October", he rejected all these resources.

"There are some problems with funding, but don't worry, the film will definitely be shot. The city has been almost built."

Ye Weimin was very sorry and felt sorry for Qi Hao.

It is obvious that Qi Hao agreed to star in "The Siege of the City in October" because of his face.

He and Qi Hao developed a very good relationship during the filming of "The Warlords", which is why Chen Kexin asked him to invite Qi Hao instead of doing it herself.

It’s not that Chen Kexin, the producer, is proud of her identity.

"It's okay if you don't want to act anymore. We owe you a favor and we can work together again in the future."

Chen Kexin added that he was the producer of "The Warlords" and was worried that the movie would lose money like "The Warlords", so he invited many big names to join the team this time.

It’s okay to make a losing movie occasionally, but if you keep losing money, even the most awesome person will be abandoned by capital.

"Have you finished writing the script? Can you show me the complete script?"

Now that people said it so nicely, Qi Hao was no longer angry. He never had a bad temper. However, he thought of another thing and wanted to read the complete script before making a decision.

I had shown him the story outline and character biographies before, but the complete script is still being revised.

"I did bring it, but you have to wait a moment. I'll have someone bring it over."

Screenwriter Qin Tiannan is a workaholic and will continue to work as much as possible even when he arrives at the hotel.

"Okay!" Qi Hao nodded.

Several people talked specifically about what happened during the movie.

It is said that several film investors visited the "Central City" which was about to be completed, but after seeing it they felt that the money was not worth it.

Some said that if he was given 20 million, he could build something better than this.

Some said that there were similar buildings everywhere and there was no need to spend so much time and energy to build another city.

Others say that this city was built in Songjiang Film and Television City, so why shouldn’t Songjiang Film and Television City contribute a large share of the cost?

In addition, due to the instigation of some people, several investors chose to withdraw their investments.

Even though their combined contribution didn't amount to much, it made the project precarious, and no one knew who would leave next.

Anyway, it will definitely not be turned on in June.

After a while, Qin Tiannan's assistant brought the script information over. Qi Hao didn't hesitate to take the script and started reading it on the spot.

Ye Weimin and Qin Tiannan looked at each other, both a little surprised.

Qi Hao does not have a high level of education. Before he could star in a movie like "The Warlords" which has a certain historical background, he did a lot of homework and spent a lot of time.

Well, the long time spent also has something to do with his semi-illiterate nature.

It doesn't match his personal level when he sees it live.

Instead of pushing yourself, it is better to give your opponent a break. Otherwise, you can take it back and take a look at it slowly.

Unexpectedly, Qi Hao finished flipping through it in a short time and even closed his eyes to think for a while.

He had memorized the script thanks to his photographic memory.

Although some parts are still confusing, at least I have figured out what the story is.

The plot may not be too novel, and there are some parts that are considered pretentious, but it just highlights the fate of small people in the torrent of history.

In the Hong Kong film industry, which has not received much praise for its plot in recent years, this is considered pretty good.

The character design is also very good.

After watching them one by one, you can visualize their appearance in your mind.

One page also has a list of actors to be invited, all of whom are big names and powerful actors in the circle.

The cast is even more awesome than that of "The Warlords".

The scripts that Qi Hao has received recently include Zhang Yimou's "The Legend of Zu", Fan Xuexue's "Perfect Match", "Rules Before Love", etc., but few of them are better than "The Besieged City".

This was given to him after being screened by Lao Tian.

Therefore, it is not easy to come across a script that is above the standard, and Qi Hao does not want to give up easily.

After he set up his studio, he took on the responsibility of supporting his family.

If we don't start work, a dozen people will go hungry.

But he can't just take on bad movies casually, as that would waste the advantages he has worked so hard to gain.

Besides, if you don’t shoot this movie in the second half of the year, what will I use to fill the gap?

"New Three Kingdoms" has clearly rejected it.

Lu Bu was snatched away by He Rundong, Zhao Yun was snatched away by Nie Yuan, and there were no more tough guys for me to play.

"How much money was withdrawn?" Qi Hao thought for a moment and asked.

"What? You want to invest? Stop it and just be an actor. Investing is risky."

Ye Weimin rejected Qi Hao immediately.

Celebrities are not necessarily rich. Even those who receive high pay may end up in poverty.

No matter how hard life is, you must not let your children suffer; no matter how poor you are, you must not show off.

If you show off, you're doomed.

Gambling and investment are the main culprits that lead to the downfall of celebrities.

"The most critical issue now is not the withdrawal of these companies. They don't have much money together. The main reason is that other investors have lost confidence. Even if you fill the hole with your personal investment, it will not bring confidence to other capitals."

Chen Kexin pointed out the key point.

What the project lacks now is not only money, but also the power to bring confidence to other investors.

Moreover, Qi Hao didn't eat a single mushroom, but his symptoms did not improve at all.

How much money do you have? In the face of real capital flow, you are nothing but a piece of cake.

"You may not know that there is actually someone behind me."

Qi Hao knew they had misunderstood.

He decided to stop pretending and come clean.
