At the closing banquet, Yue Guan was a little drunk.
This time at the wedding banquet, he was much more sincere than the previous ones he had attended.
Maybe it's because of time.
Although Wang Jing is a well-known quick shooter, Fatty Wang's attitude towards the drama "Pure Heart·Chasing Dreams of Taiping Wheel" is very serious. It can be seen to the naked eye that he is more serious than when he was filming the two-part "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword". A lot of concern.
Wang Jing actually filmed this drama for nearly three months.
Three months, for other film directors, this time is very short.
But for Wang Jing, this time is simply a miracle.
In addition, Yue Guan is basically half the owner of this crew, and he has put in no less effort than Wang Jing.
When the crew officially finished filming, Yue Guan felt that reluctance for the first time.
After all, I loved, bah, worked hard.
Wang Jing was also drunk.
Putting his arms around Yue Guan's shoulders, Wang Jing said loudly in front of the rest of the crew: "Brother, just wait, if our drama doesn't win a Golden Dragon Award for Best Film next year, my last name will be spelled backwards."
Although Yue Guan drank a lot, he was not drunk and complained directly: "Your surname is also written backwards."
The whole table burst into laughter.
Wang Jing was not embarrassed, and just said: "I'm not bragging. The director knew how the movie went when he shot it. I can guarantee that our movie will be 90% successful, and there is only one left." Success depends on God’s will.”
Hearing Wang Jing say this, everyone became even more excited.
Yue Guan did not doubt Wang Jing's words.
In fact, not to mention the director, the actors also know when they are acting, whether they are acting in a bad movie or a good movie. Those who have experienced it personally will naturally have more say.
It’s just that even if the film is a bad one, many directors and actors have already been pushed to put it on the shelves. They can’t give up halfway and can only bite the bullet and put it on the shelf.
"Pure Heart·Chasing Dreams" is not like that. During the filming, although there were moments when things were not running smoothly, it was all because the actors or the set props did not meet Wang Jing's requirements.
For this drama, Wang Jing did not lower his standards at all.
After filming this movie, Yue Guan, Liu Yifei and Huang Xiaoming all feel that their acting skills have improved a lot.
ground out.
"I can guarantee that at the Golden Dragon Awards ceremony next year, half of the people at the table today will go." Wang Jing drank too much and talked more: "Come on, let me respect you all."
"To the director."
"Brother Jingjing."
Wang Jing's reputation among the audience is mixed, but he is definitely a great director in the industry. After filming this film, both Huang Xiaoming and Liu Yifei refreshed their impressions of Wang Jing.
As long as Wang Jing is given enough money and allowed to film seriously, he will be as good as any big director.
In these three months, they know how much they have grown.
Both of them were grateful to Wang Jing.
And Wang Jing was very grateful to Yue Guan.
"Yue Guan, I will think about my brother when I have a movie in the future. It is really a pleasure to work with you." Wang Jing patted Yue Guan on the shoulder hard.
Yue Guan smiled: "It's also a pleasure to work with Brother Jing. I don't have many directors to work with. Brother Jing is definitely the best one to work with among the directors I've met. It's just that Brother Jing's price is too expensive. Ordinary ones." I can’t afford the show either.”
Of course it would be no problem to hire Wang Jing for this kind of blockbuster film with over 100 million investment.
But hiring Wang Jing for some TV dramas and online dramas would be a waste of resources.
Wang Jing also knew this truth, and patted his chest and promised: "As long as it's your play, brother, I can negotiate the price. At the worst, I can bring capital into the group and invest part of it myself. I understand, what you have in your hands It’s all good fun.”
Wang Jing is not short of money.
To be precise, no big director is short of money.
Yue Guan did not agree or refuse, he just clinked glasses with Wang Jing.
The relationship is good, but there is really no need to turn to Wang Jing for ordinary dramas. After the two movies "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer" and "Pure Heart·Chasing Dreams" are released, Wang Jing's reputation and status will definitely increase. Wave.
Prices will naturally go up as well.
Coupled with Wang Jing's temperament, after these three movies, he will most likely make two bad movies to make money.
Yue Guan will not join in the fun.
At the wedding banquet, Wang Jing was not the only one looking for a drink with Yue Guan.
The rest of the crew didn't stop either.
Everyone can see that Wang Jing is the boss in the entire crew, and Yue Guan usually listens to Wang Jing. But as long as Yue Guan speaks out, Wang Jing will never destroy Yue Guan's face.
Although he is young, Yue Guan has completed the accumulation of capital and has several IPs in his hands. This energy is no less than that of Wang Jing.
Compared with other people in the crew, it is a complete dimension reduction blow.
So everyone wants to have a good relationship with Yue Guan.
People who think they have a good relationship with Yue Guan still want to get some drama from Yue Guan.
For example, Huang Xiaoming.
"Yue Guan, is the TV series version of "The Swordsman" already in preparation?" Huang Xiaoming asked a question that has been of great concern to the entertainment industry recently.
The TV series "Eternal Dragon Sword" was successfully launched on CCTV not long ago, and as expected, it once again triggered a ratings boom.
In order to cooperate with the publicity, Huang Xiaoming also took two days off at that time.
With the popularity of the original work and the fact that the starring cast is not as good as the TV series version of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", they are all handsome men and beauties, and their popularity is not low, so "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Sword" recorded ratings on the first day it was launched on CCTV. It broke 3.
Although the follow-up trend is not as strong as "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", judging from the current results, the average ratings are even difficult to break 6, but again, this is the end of the TV station.
A TV series with an average ratings of over 5 is enough to satisfy all parties.
Taking the CCTV version alone, the TV series version of "Heaven and Dragon Sword" made no less money than "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
Both TV series can be said to be huge successes.
With two successful examples, the TV series version of "The Swordsman", the last part of Yue Guan's martial arts trilogy, has naturally attracted much attention.
Although the crew has not officially started filming, it has already been watched by many people in the industry.
Yue Guan didn't expect that Huang Xiaoming would also take notice.
He glanced at Huang Xiaoming unexpectedly and reminded: "Brother Xiao Ming, you don't have time. The crew of "The Wind Rises in the Forest" has already urged us. The filming time of our drama has exceeded expectations. After filming this movie, you must quickly join the crew of "The Wind Rises in the Forest"."
Even if there was no "Wind in the Nirvana in Fire", Yue Guan had no intention of letting Huang Xiaoming play Linghu Chong.
There are so many male actors in Dragon Kingdom, and Huang Xiaoming has already played Zhang Wuji. There is no need to let him play Linghu Chong again, as it will make the audience laugh.
After all, the ratings of Huang Xiaoming's version of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword" were not bad. Before the release of his version of "The Legend of Heaven and Dragon Sword: Demon Cult Leader", Huang Xiaoming's Zhang Wuji had already stood up.
Besides, the leader's salary is not low now. If he is asked to film a TV series, the crew's expenses will definitely increase.
As the original author, Yue Guan also enjoys part of the proceeds from the "Swordsman" project. For the "Swordsman" TV series project, the price/performance ratio is a bit low.
Huang Xiaoming explained: "I'm not planning to take on Linghu Chong. I just want to ask, have the female characters been decided yet?"
Yue Guan reacted: "You don't want Yang Tianbao to play Ren Yingying, do you?"
If Huang Xiaoming dared to mention this, Yue Guan would break off all relations with Huang Xiaoming in a matter of seconds.
This is too frustrating.
Let's put it this way, there are many female celebrities in the entertainment industry who want to compete for the role of Ren Yingying, including first-line actresses and even major actresses.
Zhang Jizhong had called him before and said that the International Chapter's team was in contact with him. The International Chapter was interested in the role of Ren Yingying, which made Zhang Jizhong extremely excited.
International Chapter Hey, movie stars who have never descended into the world want to play the TV series version of Ren Yingying.
This shows the appeal of the character Ren Yingying.
Then it was directly rejected by Yue Guan.
Who asked International Chapter to pick up "Taiping Wheel" before
Besides, there is definitely no problem with Guizhou Zhang's acting skills, but her popularity with the audience is really average. If she is asked to play Ren Yingying, she may not have to worry about her acting skills, but she may not be able to support the ratings.
Not everyone can adapt smoothly when a movie star comes to star in a TV series. Later, Chen Kun, Ni Ni, Zhou Dongyu, and Tang Wei came to act in TV series, and they all jumped on the street. Zhang Ziyi is better than them in movies, but when she comes to act in TV series, the effect is really hard to say.
But no matter how hard it is to say, there is a huge gap between International Zhang and Yang Tianbao. Although Yue Guan didn't like the International Chapter, he felt that putting these two names together was an insult to the International Chapter.
Yue Guan doesn't even like the International Chapter, let alone Yang Tianbao.
Facts have proved that the leader's emotional intelligence is not that low: "Where are you thinking? There is nothing wrong with my brain. She will definitely not be able to play Ren Yingying. Is there any hope for Lan Fenghuang?"
Lan Fenghuang, a supporting actress with many roles and outstanding characters.
Based on the status of the leader and the relationship with Yue Guan, it stands to reason that Yue Guan should give the leader this face.
It's not a big deal after all.
In the past three months, the two of them have been getting along really well. At least Yue Guan didn't notice any problems with his master's character. It was very comfortable to be friends.
But Yue Guan still didn't give him this face.
"Brother Xiao Ming, I'm curious about something."
"What's up?"
"You are not a good and innocent man. You have had several girlfriends. I have never seen you care so much about other girlfriends before." Yue Guan really didn't understand: "How come Yang Tianbao is the only one favored by you? ?I don’t believe you don’t know her love history and plastic surgery history, the Hong Kong media have revealed it clearly.”
Before Yang Tianbao and the leader, they promoted to the outside world the "No. 1 Artificial Beauty".
After following the leader, she became a pure natural beauty.
This operation is simply insulting the intelligence of the people who eat melons. There were good news about her artificial beauty and plastic surgery all over the place, but now it can be found on the Internet, so you don’t admit it
The leader also helped her lie...
Yue Guan doesn't believe this is true love.
So he asked out of curiosity.
Although these words should not be asked, Yue Guan no longer needs emotional intelligence in most cases.
When your status reaches a certain level, if you speak out loud and have low emotional intelligence, others will automatically explain it to you as an innocent person.
Huang Xiaoming is not angry at all. In three months, not only Yue Guan's impression of him has improved a lot, but his impression of Yue Guan has also become better and better. Moreover, Yue Guan is not the first to ask this question. .
He smiled bitterly and said: "The reason is very complicated. In short, I am entangled, and I am old and tired of playing."
"When people get tired of playing, they always look for an honest person to take over. You have found someone who is better at playing than you." Yue Guan said it was difficult to understand: "Forget it, if you don't want to say it, don't say it, but I don't like her. Don’t ask for roles for her in front of me in the future.”
"You don't like her? She told me that you had a good relationship on the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" before." Huang Xiaoming was surprised.
Yue Guan was speechless: "If you don't like her, you don't like her. I don't have any grudge against her, so I won't show her shame."
"Why don't you like her? How did she offend you? I asked her to apologize to you." Huang Xiaoming wanted to be a peacemaker.
After all, he had no intention of giving up on his friend Yue Guan.
Yue Guan said calmly: "She didn't offend me. I don't like her because she has nothing else to offer except as your girlfriend. Even if you use your connections and resources to make her popular , a made-up vase with no acting skills, no background, and no even self-awareness. Sooner or later, it will come back. Brother Xiao Ming, I only say some things once, and I will definitely never say them again. Sooner or later, the era of word-of-mouth will come, those virtues Stars who are not qualified will suffer consequences in a few years. If you are capable and can make a living based on your skills, the premise is not to ruin your reputation. As for your little girlfriend, I suggest you keep her at home as a canary. , otherwise she will definitely implicate you."
"Isn't that true? Yue Guan, are your predictions about the industry too pessimistic?" Huang Xiaoming frowned.
"It's not pessimism, it's optimism. The word-of-mouth era is spring for truly capable actors."
Yue Guanke has never classified himself as an idol, although he can indeed rely on his face to make a living.
"Brother Xiao Ming, I treat you as a friend and that's why I'm so close to you. It's up to you whether you listen or not. I will definitely not persuade you again in the future."
Yue Guan patted Huang Xiaoming's shoulder, and then went outside to enjoy the breeze with Liu Yifei.
Good words can't persuade the devil to die, and great mercy can't save others.
The leader has talent, nationality, and acting skills. He does not seek death, and is one of the top stars of the Mesozoic era.
If he insists on seeking death, no one can stop him.
Yue Guan didn't bother to stop him.
Everyone has to pay the price for their actions.
Liu Yifei was not far from Yue Guan and Huang Xiaoming just now. What the two talked about was not confidential, and there was no need to go behind others' backs.
So Liu Yifei was a little puzzled by Yue Guan's attitude: "Yue Guan, brother Xiao Ming is still very nice."
"I never said anything bad about others."
"Then why did you say such harsh words to him?"
"My words were good words. A few years later, when he thinks back to what I said to him today, he will definitely thank me. I just don't know if he was lucky or regretful at that time." Yue Guan said quietly.
Liu Yifei blinked.
She still felt that Yue Guan was a little too disrespectful to Huang Xiaoming, but it wasn't that he was denying her face anyway, and she didn't particularly care.
Looking up at the night sky, Liu Yifei suddenly changed the subject: "The moonlight is so beautiful tonight."
Yue Guan: "..."
He wants to judge, is this a hint to himself? Or are you hinting at yourself
