This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

Chapter 62 The film crew was in an uproar, completely stunned! This kid might be a movie star! [Requesting monthly votes]

Noticing Lü Ming's gaze, Lu Hao finally reacted: "Click!!"

"Perfect!"

"This...this is perfect!"

At this moment, Lu Hao was at a loss for words to express his feelings. He suddenly rushed to Lü Ming's side, his face full of disbelief: "You...you have this kind of acting skill, and you're still a nobody?!"

"Dude, how did yours collapse before?"

Lu Hao was completely baffled. He carefully recalled what he had just seen, and felt his head buzzing.

Honey Sister was equally incredulous. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were filled with shock: "Are you the same person who used to make the audience cringe so much they'd have to live in a three-bedroom apartment?"

Honestly, even someone who has witnessed the rise and fall of the Chinese entertainment industry has never seen an actor of the same age who can match Lü Ming's performance in that scene. His domineering acting tension, his ruthless character traits, his body language that captivated the audience, and the emotional shift that moved everyone when he saw Dilraba.

She has acted in dramas for so many years and has worked with many male actors, but she has never seen anyone present a character as three-dimensionally as Lü Ming.

At this moment, whether it was Lu Hao, Sister Mi, or Gangzi, they all had the same feeling: Zhang Xianzong should be like this, this is Zhang Xianzong!
Anyone who has read the script can deeply appreciate that Lü Ming perfectly portrayed the character of Zhang Xianzong, who is ruthless on the surface but also has a tender side!
Most importantly, with his god-like looks in the Chinese entertainment industry, this kind of play is enough to make any woman's heart race...

Gangzi stared at Lü Ming in disbelief, a multitude of thoughts immediately forming in his mind.

"No wonder he's so dedicated to acting, no wonder he kept saying investing in his show would be a sure thing, no wonder he said he'd give me a hand..." Gangzi said with mixed feelings, "It's ridiculous that back then I thought he was a nobody who overestimated himself and was arrogant..."

A talented but obscure actor who excels in both music and screenwriting, he stirred up a storm in the music scene one moment and then showcased impeccable acting skills with his original script the next. Although he is not an expert, he is, after all, the helmsman of a film and television platform, so his appreciation ability is naturally beyond question.

The thought of such a handsome face being labeled as a talented performer, and being able to develop in both the music and film industries simultaneously, made even a seasoned platform president like him feel his heart race.

When has the Chinese entertainment industry ever produced such a top-tier artist?

"No way...you're defying the heavens!!"

He couldn't even imagine what kind of expression netizens with stereotypes about unknown actors would have when they saw such captivating acting from these actors after the show aired.

That... would be absolutely amazing!
"I, Wang Gang, am investing in your project!!" Before anyone else could react, Gangzi rushed forward and grabbed Lü Ming's hand tightly: "Will the payment be transferred to your studio account? I'll arrange for someone to make the transfer right away. When will we sign the revenue-sharing agreement? Just like you said, 20% for ten million!"

Honey was still trying to calm herself down, but when she heard this, her eyes lit up.

A 20% share of ten million?!

That would be incredibly profitable!
"Your show needs funding? I can invest too!"

Before this, there were three stains on his reputation that were the root cause of his downfall: being a simp in relationships, being tone-deaf, and having terrible acting skills. Now, all three of these past stains that caused his downfall have been overturned, and his abilities in music and acting are completely inferior to those of stars of the same era.

Such talent combined with such outstanding abilities?

It's outrageous that it's not going to be popular!

The two recalled the phenomenal success of "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" after its release, and were so excited that they almost screamed!
The future commercial value of this mediocre coffee.

inestimable!

Dilraba stared at Lü Ming with shock in her beautiful eyes: "I can't believe you were hiding this so well. So you really meant it when you said you'd help me win the award?"

Then she looked at Sister Honey: "Sister, you said before that even a top star like me couldn't make it in the film and television industry, and told me to take care of myself... Waaah..."

Honey quickly covered Reba's mouth to prevent her from saying those disparaging words to Lü Ming. Then she forced a smile and said in her sweet, childlike voice, "Be prepared to repay him with your body!"

"???" Dilraba's beautiful eyes widened, and her pretty face, still covered in coal dust, flushed red in an instant.

Lu Ming snorted lightly: "Everyone, I still prefer your previous unruly self. Could you please revert to your old ways?"

"What did you say before? If you had known you would cooperate with me, you wouldn't have done it even if I killed you, right?" Lu Ming said arrogantly, pointing at Lu Hao.

Lu Hao: "..."

Brother, your past achievements and reputation are known to everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry!
"Yes, I am honored to work with a future movie star!" Lu Hao showered him with compliments.

Lu Ming snorted: "And you, what did you say before? Working with me will ruin your reputation, right? Get out of here, take Dilraba with you right now and take a taxi!"

"I'm not leaving!" Dilraba shouted repeatedly, "Top star, you know I've always believed in you..."

Honey Sister "..."

She was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground.

Before coming, she was prepared to forcibly take Dilraba away after witnessing the cringe-worthy acting of that unknown actor, but after personally experiencing the incredible change, she couldn't move her feet.

If possible, she would also like to participate in the investment and get a share of the profits. With this face, the current top star in the Chinese entertainment industry is refreshing everyone's perception with a web series. She doesn't even dare to think about how much discussion it will cause and how popular the series will become!
"Top star, I was just looking down on you before. I've always been your fan!" Sister Mi quickly defended herself, even using honorifics, her voice still sweet and charming.

Lu Ming scoffed and glanced at Gangzi: "Trying to throw money down the drain, huh? Losing everything, huh? And you're cursing me?"

"It's because your brother Gang has a narrow mind!" Gangzi was so embarrassed that he scratched his toes on the floor.

Seeing the three of them looking completely helpless, Lü Ming snorted arrogantly, "If the movie star doesn't show his skills, do you really think I'm a nobody? If I don't show off my skills in front of you guys, I don't think I'll ever be able to shake off the label of being the crew's worst nightmare."

"The wind is too strong on the way up the mountain, could you please raise your voices even louder?" Lu Ming arrogantly replied, "I! Can't! Hear! It!"

His current expression, combined with the outfit that had just left a deep impression on everyone, seemed completely out of place.

Recalling the young man's cold-faced execution of his subordinates, his ruthlessness towards the enemy and even greater ruthlessness towards himself, everyone felt a profound sense of disconnect.

"Yes Yes Yes."

"You're awesome!"

"You kid, with that face and all that popularity, it might take other people half a lifetime to win Best Actor, but if you win Best Actor, you could probably cover half a lifetime's worth of work in just a few years!" Gangzi praised enthusiastically. "As for Best Actor... all I can say is, don't do anything that crosses the line in the future. You really have a good chance!"

After all, the television and film industries are interconnected, especially with the addition of the "traffic star" label, this washed-up celebrity will be highly sought after in every industry in the future.

Seeing these people praising him so enthusiastically made Lü Ming feel incredibly pleased.

Even the guest actor who was acting alongside him was beaming with joy.

Although he had very few lines and screen time in this drama, at least he showed his face. Given that this unknown actor's acting skills are so good, and this drama is bound to be a hit, he can use this role, even without a name, to smoothly gain a lot of traffic on short video platforms in the future, thanks to the glorious experience of acting alongside an unknown actor.

The thought of this made the middle-aged man incredibly excited!

After his scenes were finished, he quietly went to find his fellow extras and excitedly shared his thoughts:

"At that time, Ming-ge's aura was so imposing that, to be honest, I really felt like I was facing a military officer from the Republican era. The pressure was just too strong. My mind went blank, and I was completely immersed in the scene. For a moment, I completely forgot that I was filming, and I felt like I was about to die..."

My friends also felt that what they saw today completely shattered their preconceived notions.

A year ago, at the peak of his career, his acting was so bad that it drew criticism from the entire internet. But a year later, he seems to have had an epiphany and is completely different. People including Gangzi and Mi Jie feel a sense of unreality when they think of Lü Ming's terrible acting in the past and compare it with what they just saw.

It's too disjointed!!
Lu Ming naturally wouldn't release any more investment shares.

The reason he promised Gangzi 20% of the 10 million yuan was because Gangzi had indeed treated him well, and Gangzi happened to be short of 10 million yuan in funding. However, after the incident of the Tencent CEO being replaced, Gangzi inexplicably received a 30 million yuan appearance fee for "Go Fighting!", so he had no financial worries at all.

However, promises made are naturally kept, and in matters of interpersonal relationships, it's all about resource exchange in order to seek higher returns.

Unlike traditional dramas, web series can only premiere on online video platforms, and their profit model is relatively simple. Most of the time, after the platform reviews the content, it directly buys out the entire series based on market prices according to the number of episodes. However, this is the least profitable method. For high-quality works with great potential for becoming hits, in addition to a guaranteed buyout, the platform will also provide a portion of the revenue based on the popularity of the content.

If the show becomes a hit on online platforms and doesn't contain any inappropriate content, the rights can be sold to television stations for broadcast, which would be a real windfall. Although Gangzi is the president of Kiwi Fruit, he faces immense revenue pressure every year. If he can't present a strong annual report to the board, he risks being reassigned. Even with his high position and the fact that he might handle projects with total investments of tens of billions of yuan annually, he's lucky if he gets ten million yuan after tax.

When he works for the platform, all the profits go to the platform, and he only gets a small share. But when he personally invests in his show "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer," he makes money for himself, which is a completely different story.

Even without Lü Ming saying anything, Gangzi would use his position to secure a highly profitable profit-sharing agreement for him, not to mention the exposure resources.

Therefore, giving the bonus to Gangzi is not only not a loss, but based on the principle of mutual benefit, he will actually earn more!

As for Sister Mi, who wanted to interfere?

Even if he tries to be cute, he won't give away his own interests for free. Dilraba is Dilraba, and Sister Mi is Sister Mi. Lu Ming keeps the distinction very clear. Let's not talk about the future relationship for now. In short, it's definitely not that time yet.

After a brief farce.

Filming continued. Gangzi, who was originally going to do his own thing after watching for a while, stopped and waited to eat his afternoon lunch. As for Sister Mi, even if she couldn't get an investment share, she felt that she had to take advantage of the fact that there was still a serious information gap in the public's perception of her as a struggling celebrity to build a better relationship.

She used to think Dilraba was crazy, agreeing to star in a low-budget web series for free before anything was even going on. But now, looking back, she knows perfectly well which would be better: a 20 million yuan salary or a man like him. Even if she, who has long since closed her heart, had to choose, she would know exactly which to choose.

"You really have to admit, fools are just lucky..." Sister Mi couldn't help but sigh as she watched the two get ready to start filming again.

……

Given the previous contrast, everyone was now staring intently at Lü Ming, who was wearing a military overcoat in the center of the arena.

The two sat at a table in a roadside shop. Dilraba innocently ate the wontons on the table, while Lü Ming asked gently, "What's your name?"

“Yue Qiluo,” Dilraba replied with an innocent expression.

Taking the opportunity, Lü Ming probed, "Did you hear anything when you passed through the alley just now?"

"I heard you," Reba replied in a clear voice.

Lu Ming's expression suddenly changed, and a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Reba's voice was clear and crisp: "I heard someone setting off firecrackers in the alley, so I ran over to see what was going on and saw your hands covered in blood, and someone lying there. Later, your soldiers ran over and I realized they were firing guns."

Upon hearing this, Lü Ming's expression softened slightly. Perhaps it was because of the innocent and harmless appearance of the girl in front of him. He pondered for a moment and did not pursue the matter further. Then, he silently took out a silver dollar from his pocket and instructed, "This money, besides paying for these meals, will leave you with some money to spare. Be careful with your spending."

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Everyone watching felt a jolt in their hearts.

Honestly, even top-tier actors might not be able to portray such subtle emotional shifts so directly. After all, these are just fleeting micro-expressions that would be gone in the blink of an eye in the main film. Unless you look at them with a magnifying glass, who would care about the subtle differences?

Lu Hao, especially, was terrified as he sat in front of the monitor watching the footage!
As the director, he could see most clearly through the close-up of the face on the equipment. He could clearly sense that Zhang Xianzong did not believe Yue Qiluo's words at all. His thoughtful look clearly showed that he felt that such a weak girl could not pose a threat to him, which was why he decided not to pursue the matter.

Such exquisite and meticulous acting skills made him feel a little uneasy: "Am I really not dreaming?"

Almost all directors in the Chinese entertainment industry are full of fighting spirit and want to create art when they start filming a new drama. Everyone knows that details determine success or failure, but the reason why there are still so many bad movies on the market is because acting is too general and too difficult to be perfect in every aspect. Basic skills are only one aspect, and the actor's state on the day of filming will also have a great impact.

A film often takes two or three months to shoot. If we focus too much on the details, not only will the actors rebel, but the production team will also be unable to satisfy the investors...

After all, a film crew often has hundreds of people, and every extra day of filming incurs extra labor costs. This industry is a money-burning business. If you are too picky about every little detail, the two-month filming period can even be extended to two years. If you really do that, you will lose money.

Most importantly, in this fast-paced era, even if a work is meticulously crafted and polished, the final product may not necessarily be much better than one that is rushed; it may still flop.

This is why good actors are so rare in the film and television industry.

Sometimes, even award-winning actors have to rush to meet deadlines due to scheduling conflicts. How many actors truly have enough time to delve into a character, refine the details, and possess solid acting skills?
Ironically, this rare and precious phenomenon actually happened to a... washed-up celebrity?

The stark contrast even gave Lu Hao a dreamlike feeling.

Others shared the same feeling.

In the scene, Zhang Xianzong had just turned and left when Yue Qiluo chased after him. After being discovered, the little beggar asked frankly, "Can I... go home with you?"

"Why?" Lu Ming turned his head to look back, a smile curving his lips, as if he thought it was absurd that a meal could make such an innocent and charming girl ask to go home with him.

"Because I have nowhere to stay," Dilraba frankly stated her situation.

Lu Ming slowly raised his head, and with his movements, his facial expression subtly changed, finally revealing a gentle smile.

Honey stared into Lü Ming's eyes. For some reason, seeing his warm, spring-like smile, a smile involuntarily appeared on her pretty face as well. As if realizing that she was not managing her expression properly, she quickly composed herself.

"Cut!!!" Lu Hao shouted excitedly, "Perfect! This is amazing! This is the first time I've ever felt this sweetness on the monitor on set. Dude, you're too good at this! With such a handsome man and a beautiful woman, if you can keep this feeling, when the final product is released, netizens will be shipping you two like crazy!"

"Your basic skills in managing your facial expressions are absolutely amazing, unbeatable!"

He swore that he had never encountered such a satisfactory talent in acting since he started his career.

He was prepared to film this scene for a whole day, but how long has it been? Considering their interruptions earlier and the fact that this scene has just been filmed, only half an hour has passed!
If filming continues at this pace, this kid's scenes might be finished in a week?!

This is outrageous!

"Wow, they've all come up with this! Did they learn it from Teacher He?" Lu Ming joked.

Lu Hao was truly impressed, his excitement evident in his words: "To be honest, if this gets out, the entire entertainment industry will probably be shaken up!"

"Hey, transfer ten million to this card number right now. Don't ask why. The return on this deal could exceed 300%. If you delay, things might change!" Gangzi secretly went to a quiet place, took out his phone, and called his wife, urgently instructing her: "You have to be quick. Let me know when the money arrives."

He was terrified of missing the chance to make a fortune by following the God of Wealth.

"Brother Ming...you..." Xiaoya stepped forward with the thermos and handed it to Lü Ming, her beautiful eyes filled with shock: "This is really unbelievable, but I knew that if you dared to take such a gamble, Brother Ming, you must have been confident!"

"This show is absolutely going to be a hit!"

Hearing Xiaoya's excited voice, all the staff, including the executive director, felt the same way.

A washed-up celebrity, who was recognized as having the most stunning looks in the Chinese entertainment industry, has suddenly transformed into a talented actor. It would be strange if he didn't become a sensation!

Han Dongjun, the male lead, was also stunned. This guy exuded murderous aura when he was serious, and his ruthlessness when he shot and killed his subordinate was clearly visible. The thought that he, a nobody in the entertainment industry, would have to act alongside this ruthless person made him feel immense pressure and fear.

With plenty of time to spare and other commitments to attend to, Lü Ming naturally hoped to speed things up and finish filming his scenes as soon as possible.

So, under Lü Ming's guidance, Dilraba became an easy winner. At first, the entire crew was surprised, but later, Lü Ming pulled Dilraba into a dramatic performance, showcasing various perfect one-shot acting skills with silky smoothness. This repeatedly raised the bar for the audience, who cheered after the director yelled "cut".

From time to time, excited exclamations and praises could be heard from the filming location.

The creative teams of several other film crews around were quite bewildered.

Which platform's heir descended to earth to film this movie, causing the entire crew to fawn over him?
In the following days, Lü Ming was either acting or on his way to act. His scenes with Zhang Xianzong were all filmed in less than five days, which was unbelievable to most people.

Dilraba didn't expect her CP journey with Lü Ming to end so quickly. It wasn't until Lü Ming finished filming that she felt like she had woken up from a dream.

On the night filming wrapped, Lü Ming returned to Shenzhen.

There's still a 10 million yuan prize money waiting for me to withdraw from Tencent. My opponent in the final of "Who is the King of Singers" is Li Changfeng, a nobody that Lü Ming doesn't take seriously at all, but he's also an old friend.

Prior to this, he first compiled the photos taken with the actors during the filming of the past few days into a nine-grid layout and posted it on Weibo, officially announcing the main cast of "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer".
