Huayu has been doing one good deed a day since 2001

Chapter 177 This is really not the chosen one
On October 10, the whole of China was still under the crazy bombardment of the era drama (Goblin), sweeping across all small TV screens.

The fifteenth episode was aired in mainland China last night.

The plot has developed to this point, with the three treasures of Korean dramas, terminal illness, amnesia and car accidents, etc., and the male and female protagonists in the upgraded version of Cinderella meeting the top domineering president in a tragic love affair.

The second male lead and the second female lead have a tragic love affair.

I don’t know how many young men and women were slaughtered, including the tears of the middle-aged and elderly people.

The most outrageous number is that in the 15 episodes, Goblin managed to achieve an unbeatable dominance of 2004% in the autumn of 48.

This even suppressed the 42% viewership ratings of the rebroadcast of "My Love from the Star".

In today's Internet world, half of the top 30 hot searches are dominated by ghost-related news.

The leading actress Liu Shishi had played supporting roles dozens of times, and her resume of hanging around in crews was dug up.

This really shocked the whole nation.

I originally thought that she was a lucky person, who was able to star in such a phenomenal drama as soon as she debuted, and was a favorite of heaven.

Even Liu Yifei and Dong Ling, who debuted with the aura of being the heroines, were outdone.

After all, 360 Encyclopedia has become quite popular, mainly because celebrities in the entertainment industry and Internet entrepreneurs have more and more complete encyclopedia information.

Even fans of veteran Hong Kong stars such as Stephen Chow, Jackie Chan, and Sammo Hung are familiar with their 360 personal encyclopedias to check what movies they have starred in.

Because before the encyclopedia was invented, most mainland fans were too far away from these people and had no idea how many unpopular works they had performed in.

360 Encyclopedia has greatly enriched the knowledge of fans of film, television and music stars.

Therefore, Dong Li, Liu Yifei and others have all played the leading female roles since their debut, and have been praised by fans as the beautiful women sent from heaven.

The sudden popularity of Goblin also gave Liu Shishi a "preliminary whitewash" of her character as the beautiful woman who fell from the sky.

Even Jiang Shuying has more work experience than Liu Shishi. Jiang Shuying played the role of Yuan Biao's daughter in "Extreme Job" and played a supporting role.

A group of fans, both men and women, who have just become fans of this beautiful girl next door, have just seen on the encyclopedia that she is a rich flower.

From time to time, some official Weibo accounts of some film crews would start to reveal information about how long ago Xiao Liu had played a supporting role in their film, how his acting was so bad that he was scolded by the director, or how his scenes were cut.

You explode one today and I explode one tomorrow, leaving countless people confused.

Is this true or false?

Liu Shishi publicly responded that her acting skills were indeed too poor and she could not perform well and could not meet the performance standards, which led to the filming of (Goblin) being delayed for several months.

Then I would like to thank the official Weibo of Goblin and the official Weibo of Time Media. The crew did not kick her out because she was a drag, and gave her another half a year of training time until she met the standards, which led to all this today.

And the extras, dozens of small extra roles?
She even took the initiative to @周星池 to pay tribute to this star.

He also started @ing all fans on the entire Internet.

I hope that in the next few years, everyone can find photos of her, Xiao Liu, as a supporting role in different film and television projects, just like looking for Stephen Chow’s supporting roles in some works.

As soon as this situation was announced, the entire Internet exploded.

So according to your information, you were admitted to Beijing Film Academy in 04, and now you are a freshman. It turns out that you have signed a 3-year contract?

It took me nearly three years to get the acting skills I needed in Goblin.

Then there is nothing to say, her and Jiang Shuying, and then the resumes of Yang Mi, Reyizha, Zhang Jiani and others were pulled out.

Countless people began to feel jealous, thinking that these few people were too lucky.

If they had been signed by Mr. Li Shiguang a few years in advance and had invested money and resources in them, they might have performed better.

But this is the time period when Goblin crushes all ratings.

It was the moment when Liu Shishi and Jiang Shuying's health bars exploded.

Countless fans of the two little beauties just want to hug them and say things like, "How pitiful!" and "Sister, how hard-working!"

The hardworking personality will attract some traffic in the future, and it can also attract many crazy fans who will praise and feel sorry for them.

Liu Shishi and Xiao Jiang are the ones who have reaped the greatest rewards from their hard work.

On October 10, Liu Shishi's Weibo account had 16 million followers on the internal version of the Great Firewall, and over 1100 million followers on the external version, simply because "Goblin" had not yet aired in Taiwan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia, and Thailand.

Jiang Shuying is a bit behind, but she also has more than 600 million fans inside the wall and over one million outside the wall.

This is the most fierce new star who rose in the fall of 2004.

One play made a bunch of stars famous.

At around 11 o'clock in the morning, Li Wenyu arrived at Shiguang Media. As soon as he entered the door, he was overwhelmed by various greetings and hellos, and even started to laugh all the way.

He responded calmly and went to the office. Before he even entered, he heard Deng Xi and Jin Dong greeting him while walking quickly.

This is the (Squid Game) filming completed.

Of course, Jin Dong did not star in Squid Game, they were together as a pair of goblins.

Old Li politely said a few words and entered the office. He told them to choose what to drink and said with a smile, "Old Deng, you've been busy a lot lately. You could take a break and relax a bit."

"As for A-Dong, you've just become famous. You can choose to make money through sex, deal with your life problems, and then think about a new job."

Squid Game wrapped up filming in South Korea the day before yesterday, and Deng Xu rushed back yesterday.

The two of them nodded hurriedly to express their opinions.

After thanking him, Deng Xiaoping took another sip of mineral water and said enthusiastically, "Boss, Crazy Stone will premiere in a few days, and the Goblin I played is very popular."

"Although I'm not in the show, I'm also a member of the company. Can I attend the premiere and roadshow?"

Old Li, “…”

Lao Deng must know that the release of New Police Story and Infernal Affairs 2 was all thanks to Huang Xiaoming's active roadshows, which earned them 2.19 million and 8300 million in mainland box office respectively.

Deng Xiao smiled happily, "Boss, I'm actually a bit of a crowd pleaser and I love the stage. Long Ge's (Baby Project) is a Lunar New Year film."

"I'll be running around too, but (Crazy Stone) is our company's big movie, and Sister Ling will be the female lead."

"I will definitely let loose during my roadshows, whether it's singing and dancing, or performing a play like Cuihua on Pickled Cabbage. I will definitely make the audience laugh when I cross-dress as a woman."

Old Deng is here to show his loyalty!
He knows how popular he is now, and he also knows how many Goblin fans and moviegoers the surprise roadshow will attract.

But since his debut with Signing Time, he has played the second male lead in My Love from the Star, an important supporting role in Medicine God, the second male lead in Jackie Chan movies, and then to Goblin: Super Explosion and the male lead in Squidward Idol.

Seriously, such a resume?
One is a god-level big shot, he just signed a normal contract and performed normally.

A bunch of them!

He also heard that Huang Xiaoming had proactively refused to give himself a higher share of the profits.

Therefore, he and his agent also plan to maintain a stable 50% achievement in the first five years.

Otherwise, look at how much the Huayi PR team next door is doing, and then look at the Hong Kong and Macau circles and the South Korean circles?

Deng Xuan and others were so frightened by the darkness of the South Korean entertainment industry that their legs went weak.

When you enter the door, you can attract fans, take photos, or hand over other criminal evidence to the company first. They will control you for the rest of your life before giving you a chance.

Once you become famous, you will be treated like a hard laborer, and you will have to continue to endure even if you are seriously ill.

Selling one's body to the big guys is just the most common and lowest level operation.

Helping with money laundering, taking the blame, and so many other things, it's so fucking exciting. The more we understand, the more fortunate we are to have met a big boss like Lao Li when we signed the contract when we were just getting started in this circle.

The ancestral tomb is smoking!

Isn't it a normal way to show loyalty by running a roadshow for the company's big project and being a guest to boost box office sales?

Jin Dong also quickly agreed, "Boss, that's what I mean. I can't sing, but I can definitely make the audience laugh in stage plays and dramas."

Old Li nodded. "That's fine. With the quality of (Crazy Stone), with a normal promotion and roadshow, I think it can make 1.5 million yuan at the box office, which is worthy of Ning Hao's quality."

"If you join the roadshow, it won't be difficult to break 3 million when Goblin is at its peak."

The original Stone's box office was only 2500 million, ranking 2006th on the 20 mainland box office list!
But the box office performance of a movie is really closely related to the theater’s screening rate and publicity and promotion.

Stone is a low-budget dark horse comedy without any star aura. It relies on word of mouth to attract more people to watch the movie, increase the screening schedule, and slowly accumulate 2500 million.

Ten years after the release of Stone, its reputation and quality evaluation are no worse than Charlotte's Troubles, which was released in 10 and grossed 2015 billion yuan.

In 2016, The Mermaid grossed 33 billion yuan at the box office.

These three comedy films are of similar quality.

豆瓣打分石头89万人评分8.6分，夏洛特烦恼107万人打分7.9分，美人鱼86万人评分才6.7分。

Considering the current appeal of Dong Li and Liu Dehua's roadshows, Lao Li's expectation for Stone itself is 1.5 million to 2 million yuan, let's catch up (there is no thief in the world).

This is a weekend-only box office hit.

But the first round of Goblin was a huge hit, and Deng Xiaoping and Jin Dong went out for a roadshow. There must have been a lot of people skipping school to watch (Crazy Stone) to support their idols.

The only problem is that Deng Xiaoping relies on his various cool male god images to attract countless female fans on the big screen. What if you let him really dress up as a woman and play Cuihua on sauerkraut?

His reputation must be shattered.

The problem is that Deng Xiaoping and Jin Dong are basically taking the acting route at this stage.

Who dares to say that Lao Deng, who played the role of a yellow-haired chronic myeloid leukemia patient in the TV series "Dying to Survive", has no acting skills?

Li Wenyu pondered for a few seconds and shook his head, "Singing and dancing are nothing special. Wearing Cuihua in a woman's outfit and putting on some pickled vegetables will help you break the fan filter and become an acting talent."

"But it will lower the price of your various fashion endorsements, so you can spend as much as you want in two years."

"You two should ask Ning Hao to treat us. Once Stone breaks 3 million at the box office and enters the top five in mainland China's film history rankings, I'll really thank you."

There are two examples of Huang Xiaoming starring in New Police Story and Infernal Affairs 2, which were both huge hits. Ning Hao can easily understand the value of these two movies.

现在内地影史排行榜，前五是药神5.46亿、极限职业4.23亿、英雄3.72亿、泰坦尼克号大船3.6亿、功夫3.47亿。

Ranked sixth is "The Beekeeper" directed by Zhang Guorong, with 2.58 million yuan.

Zhang Guorong has also done a lot of road shows, and singing live is a great treat for his fans.

Deng Xiao nodded repeatedly, "That's fine. Director Ning is quite talented. The stones are really interesting and funny. It reminds me of Brother Hua's International Thief, where he showed off his superb jade stealing techniques at a high level."

"Because the rope I bought was too short, I was hanging in the air like a sand sculpture. I laughed so hard that my stomach hurt."

"Helping Director Ning this time will make it easier for me to ask for cooperation next time."

He rushed back yesterday and watched the internal screening of the film overnight.

This kind of joke, which is not forced to make the audience feel more embarrassed than genuinely laugh, was also very funny in 2004.

Old Li chatted for a few more sentences and then signaled that they could leave.

There are quite a few blockbusters during this year's Christmas, New Year and Lunar New Year period, including Jackie Chan's "Baby Project," Jet Li's "Black Mask 3," and Fat Bing's "Perfect Stranger."

Media Asia's Initial D starring Jay Chou has also finished filming, so I plan to get some of the action.

At least they are not bad movies, they are all in the excellent series.

In 2005, it was Hero II and Kung Fu II!!

…………

Four o'clock in the afternoon on the 16th.

When Lao Li left Shiguang Media, he learned that Pang Bing was following Xue Xiaolu in the car, observing the work flow of the assistant director in selecting the location?

Old Li also rushed over and arrived at a garden house on the first floor of a residential complex.

He then smiled and said to Fatty Bing, "How are your studies going recently?"

Fat Bing smiled sweetly and hugged his arms, "I've learned a lot. I used to just hear about these processes, but now I'm in charge of everything from scouting locations to planning costumes and props, and even liaising with lighting and photography to coordinate."

“Talk to them about the shot effects I want…”

This is truly a boss, directing the operation and coordination of each department.

Forming a large team behind the scenes is sometimes more troublesome than communicating between the director and the main actors.

Pang Bing doesn't have to worry about not having enough money.

This makes her path to becoming a director easier than 95% of the time.

Li Wenyu nodded. "Learn more. At least people won't criticize you for being a show-off. Thank you, Senior Sister Xue, for this."

"If you have any ideas or creative ideas in the future, feel free to submit them to Time."

Xue Xiaolu hurriedly waved his hand politely and said one nice word after another.

She had no experience as a film director before! Her main job was as a screenwriter and director of TV documentaries and short dramas!
It is nothing more than collaborating with each film crew, and she is also learning the various abilities that a film director should have.

Sister Xue’s directorial debut, Ocean Paradise, was written and directed by herself in the 90s, after she became a volunteer contacting families of autistic patients and worked as a volunteer for many years.

Now she is still a teacher in the Department of Literature at Beijing Film Academy.

After finishing a day's work, Da Meiyuan was still the driver. When Lao Li and Pang Bing returned to the courtyard together, Pang Bing smiled and said, "Qin Lan's language talent is average."

"She still speaks haltingly in English. It's been a while since you've been throwing out the pies for 2 Broke Girls. But her acting is okay as the young wife in Perfect Strangers."

Qin Lan is the second female lead in You Who Came From the Stars!

It’s been more than a year and a half since My Stars premiered.

After she played the leading female role in New Police Story, she was still screening from a pile of works when she came across the American drama.

Li Wenyu nodded. "She still hasn't passed after nine months. Compared to Xiao Ming's progress, it's indeed slower."

But this is actually normal.

Not everyone can just let go of everything towards middle-aged or older people of the same sex.

When it comes to being cruel to herself, Qin Lan is far behind Huang Xiaoming, Nie Yuan, Chen Xiao and others.

There's no need to be that cruel.

2 Broke Girls still needs Alexandra Daddario to improve her acting skills, and Qin Lan has not been thrown into the American context.

She is often surrounded by people with whom she can have English conversations, but the general environment in which she lives, eats, wears clothes, lives and travels is still Chinese and Mandarin.

The last time Li Wenyu met Qin Lan, she was still English (51/100)!
Alexandra speaks Mandarin (45/100).
