Entertainment: Who still wants to fall in love when there are cheats?

Chapter 59 Changes in Mentality

When Cai Yinong and Li Guoli heard Sister Wang say that Li Boda was going to quit the show, they looked at each other in surprise.

For the drama [Chinese Paladin], Cai Yinong originally planned to invite a star like Lin Zhiying to act in it. As long as the star came, there would be no need to worry about the TV series not being popular.

But they couldn't invite Lin Zhiying at all. After going around in circles, they had no choice but to let Li Boda play Li Xiaoyao.

As mentioned before, Li Boda is now quite famous and popular. He is actually qualified to play the role of Li Xiaoyao and can bring popularity to this drama.

But Cai Yinong insisted on letting Hu Ge play Li Xiaoyao and Li Boda play the second male lead Tang Yu Xiaobao. This would not only promote Hu Ge, but also bring Li Boda's popularity.

Her idea was quite nice, but when Li Boda heard the news, he immediately quit!
Li Guoli couldn't help but look at Cai Yinong. His meaning was simple: if you bully others, they will just quit. Are you still insisting on having Hu Ge play Li Xiaoyao?
"..." Cai Yinong didn't expect that Li Boda would suddenly quit. This was obviously a lack of face for her. Cai Yinong, who had never thought highly of Li Boda, now had an even lower favorable impression of Li Boda, and even felt a little disgusted with him.

However, when it comes to a TV series or a project, we cannot ignore all the interests involved just because of a momentary impulse.

After all, even though Cai Yinong is a woman and emotional by nature, when it comes to company projects and money, she can't just act on impulse and ignore everything.

She just couldn't say anything softly. In the end, Cai Yinong glanced at Li Guoli and turned away.

Li Guoli understood that Cai Yinong had decided to hand over the matter, or the drama "Chinese Paladin", to Li Guoli for management.

So, as soon as Cai Yinong left, Li Guoli smiled and said to Sister Wang, "Maybe some messy gossip has reached Boda's ears. Tell him that those gossips are just for fun and not to take seriously. Let him come back soon. After all, the crew can't be without a male lead, right?"

When Sister Wang heard what Li Guoli said, she immediately looked happy: "Don't worry, Director Li, I'll call Boda back right away."

So, Li Boda, who had just left the crew, received a call from Sister Wang, informing him that he could play the role of Li Xiaoyao again.

Li Boda was really angry. If he was not rational enough, he would really want to quit. What's the point of being the male lead? I quit!
Fortunately, Li Boda was rational enough, and he also understood that if he really didn't want the protagonist, wouldn't it be in vain? Then wouldn't it be in Cai Yinong's favor, and the protagonist would be given to Hu Ge?
Therefore, he has to play the role of Li Xiaoyao, and he must play it!
We must not let Cai Yinong be proud, and we must not let Hu Ge get away with it!
However, at this moment, Li Boda's thoughts also changed.

Before, Li Boda simply wanted to act, and he felt that as long as he improved his acting skills and filmed well, that would be enough.

But now it seems that we still have to fight!
Whatever you want, you have to fight for it yourself!
Just like this time, he simply gave up and made his attitude clear, and only then was he able to regain the role of Li Xiaoyao.

Before, Li Boda was very casual. He would take whatever the company assigned him and never argued or fought for anything.

He felt that since he was an artist of the company, if he did well, became famous, and made more money, his company would also benefit more and make more money.

But now thinking about it, his previous thoughts were really naive!
You want everyone to be happy, but others don't want you to be happy. What should you do? You can only resort to tricks and fight for it yourself.

After returning to the crew, Li Boda saw Sister Wang waiting for him outside the crew.

"Sister Wang, thank you."

"I am your executive agent. We are one, so it is my duty to help you. Thank you so much." Sister Wang said to Li Boda with a smile.

Li Boda nodded and didn't emphasize thank you again.

Li Boda could feel that Sister Wang valued him. He understood that Sister Wang was on his side, which was completely different from Cai Yinong.

"Sister Wang, I just left. I'm afraid Mr. Cai is not very happy." Li Boda asked Sister Wang.

"...Boss Cai is indeed a bit biased." Sister Wang's smile disappeared. "From now on in the company—Boda, if you want to get any good resources again, I'm afraid it won't be so easy."

"Well, I understand. So Sister Wang, I think maybe you can look outside the company, make more connections, and accumulate some personal connections. You can't always be an executive broker." Li Boda said meaningfully.

Sister Wang paused slightly, then nodded: "Yes, I will."

Li Boda returned to the crew.

Meanwhile, Hu Ge also received the news that he would be playing the third male lead, Liu Jinyuan! Originally, he could only play a relatively large role, the former Shushan senior brother Jiang Ming.

Now that he has suddenly become the third male lead, Hu Ge is a little overjoyed.

However, when someone quietly told him that Mr. Cai originally wanted him to play the leading male role Li Xiaoyao, but it was snatched away by Li Boda, Hu Ge's good mood suddenly turned sour.

After all, there is more between the third male lead and the first male lead than just the second male lead.

So when Hu Ge learned that she was only one step away from becoming the male protagonist, but was finally snatched away by Li Boda, Hu Ge couldn't help but feel some resentment towards Li Boda.

But this is also normal. After all, if there is no resentment in such a situation, he is really a living saint, the reincarnation of Buddha. It is just right for him to sit on top after the Leshan Giant Buddha is moved.

As for whether this news was true or not, Hu Ge had no doubt about it at all.

After Hu Ge signed a contract with Tangren Film and Television, the resources Tangren provided him were really excellent, and he was treated almost like the prince of Tangren.

He played the male lead in two movies, one as the fifth male lead and the other as the second male lead, and then he played the male lead in an idol drama. So, in Hu Ge's opinion, it was a normal move for him to continue playing the male lead in "Chinese Paladin".

Now he can only play the third male lead because Li Boda took away the first male lead and his resources.

Hu Ge even forgot that at the beginning, he was only supposed to play the supporting role of Jiang Ming in "The Chinese Paladin", which had a slightly larger number of scenes.

But people are like this. When many things happen to themselves, they tend to ignore many things that others can see clearly. Otherwise, how could there be the idiom "a bystander sees more clearly"?

Li Boda didn't realize he had become the target of Hu Ge's hatred. No, it should be said that he had long guessed that he would be hated by Hu Ge. But he didn't care. Being an actor requires resources and competition. It would be strange if he wasn't hated.

……

Let’s talk about Hu Ge. What can I say about this star? At the beginning, I had a relatively normal attitude towards him. He was the male lead in a popular TV series. There are many such people, such as He Zhonghua, Huang Haibing, Nie Yuan, Huang Xiaoming, etc.

Later, I inexplicably saw online that Hu Ge had more male fans than female ones. Almost all the posts were about male fans. I was quite stunned at the time. Why did Hu Ge have more male fans than female ones? At the time, I had never read entertainment novels, and I had no idea how powerful Tangren was in online promotion. I simply assumed it was true. So, naturally, my feelings changed, and I began to appreciate him.

But later, after learning that Hu Ge had been in a car accident, Ha Mei, who was filming on the set, turned down the role, compensated the crew, and went to the hospital to take care of Hu Ge for two months. However, the two later broke up. The reason is well known to the public: Hu Ge's parents looked down on Ha Mei because of her low education. I felt quite sad at the time, as they were obviously in love.

However, the author later read that someone broke the news that it was because Hu Ge was too extravagant and acted like a crew couple on the set, and Ha Mei couldn't stand it, so she chose to break up with Hu Ge. Then Ha Mei became a monk after the breakup.

The author simply dismissed this as fabricated gossip and didn't take it seriously. After all, the term "couple on set" was something the author had only recently learned.

However, later, on a variety show, Liu Tao defecated in the wild, and Hu Ge asked Liu Tao to take the paper back and not throw it in the wild. He even put it in a plastic bag and threw it into Liu Tao's car.

To be honest, many people on the Internet are praising Hu Ge for its environmental protection, but I feel inexplicably disgusted.

Toilet paper rots very quickly in the wild, and it is made of wood and grass, so it will decompose soon. The author feels that there is nothing to argue about whether to throw it in the wild or take it home and throw it in the trash can.

However, the author felt that it was fake. This was probably a character setting. No matter how he looked at it, he felt uncomfortable. The author's good impression of Hu Ge suddenly dropped to zero.

Later, the author no longer had any stance towards any celebrity.

After all, there are so many celebrities whose reputations have been ruined these days. Who knows what kind of people they are in private, even though they appear to be glamorous or have good personalities in public. They might be good people one day, but end up in jail the next.

In this book, the author does not write Hu Ge as a bad character, but he also does not write him as good as he can be, and then praise him or collaborate with him or anything like that.

In the early stages, they might even treat Hu Ge as an opponent and target him. After all, if they want to compete for resources in the same company, they have to use some tricks.

So if you are a Hu Ge fan, you can quit here. If you insist on continuing to read, don't criticize me when you see the following article about Hu Ge being bad.
