This Emperor is Only An Actor

Chapter 303: Hollywood's olive branch

Views:

After "Pure Heart·Chasing Dreams" topped the box office, Yue Guan announced that he would invest 50 million per year to reward outstanding screenwriters, which brought his popularity and reputation to the peak at the same time.

In terms of qualifications, Yue Guan is not as good as many established stars.

But in terms of popularity and ability to carry the box office, no one doubts that Yue Guan is now ranked number one.

Therefore, Yue Guan has come into the sight of many people.

It’s not just domestic investors.

Also includes foreign ones.

That day Yue Guan was collecting information on ancient Chinese myths and legends in the office. Chinese classical myths are really messy, and there are all kinds of versions.

In Yue Guan's future plans, Xianxia movies will be a very important part, and to make Xianxia, classical myths and legends obviously cannot be bypassed.

Therefore, Yue Guan has always wanted to come up with a complete mythology system that is easy for the audience to understand.

In this system, the Prehistoric Series, the Fengshen Series, the Jade Emperor, and the Immortal Qin can all be included, which will also make it easier for him to shoot these in the future.

But it’s a lot of work.

The settings are really messy.

Yue Guan didn't have a clear idea. He could only collect information first, and then slowly sort out his inspiration.

Fortunately, he was not in a hurry.

While Yue Guan was still reading the information, Mo Xiangwan opened the door of his office with a look of surprise.

"Yue Guan, there is great news."

"What's the good news?" Yue Guan looked up at Mo Xiangwan.

Mo Xiangwan looked at Yue Guan and said word by word: "Disney has extended an invitation to you."

"Disney? Invite me to be their spokesperson?" Yue Guan was a little surprised.

"It's not Disneyland, it's Disney movies. To be precise, it's Marvel, a subsidiary of Disney."

Yue Guan was even more surprised this time: "What does Marvel have to do with me? There are no yellow people in the Avengers."

"It's possible."

"What's the meaning?"

"Marvel wants to develop the Dragon Kingdom market, and you are now the hottest star in the Dragon Kingdom, so Marvel wants to invite you to join the Avengers."

This operation is not surprising.

After Wu Jing was promoted in his previous life, Hollywood has always wanted to cooperate with Wu Jing. When Hollywood blockbusters entered the country, they always liked to drag Wu Jing to the platform for dialogue.

If you want to develop the domestic market, it is normal business behavior to seek cooperation with the most popular celebrities in the country.

Yue Guan can also accept it.

But not much interest.

"Marvel wants the entire domestic special edition? Only domestic audiences can see it, not foreign audiences. It's not interesting. Please refuse it for me."

Yue Guan doesn't have a Hollywood filter. He admits that Hollywood blockbusters are indeed high-quality, but he really doesn't think acting in Hollywood movies will improve him much.

Especially the so-called domestic special edition.

Yue Guan's indifferent attitude made Mo Xiangwan calm down: "If it is a domestic special edition, it is indeed unnecessary, but what if it can also be seen abroad?"

"It's impossible. There are many people in the world who have read Marvel's original works. Very few people will accept the appearance of a yellow man in the Avengers, especially the ugly people themselves. It is impossible for Marvel to do it for the domestic market. Sacrifice your own base, after all, no matter how high the domestic box office is, only a small part can be distributed to them.”

Yue Guan convinced Mo Xiangwan, but Mo Xiangwan still didn't want to give up this opportunity: "Yue Guan, you have reached the top in China. If you can take advantage of this opportunity to go out, try not to miss it."

"Sister Xiang Wan, please calm down. We are in this era. Don't take Hollywood movies as a god. The international chapter has made so many Hollywood movies, and it is not the same in China now."

"Of course it's different. The one who invited you is Marvel."

"It's the same for everyone. Just like Hollywood stars, no matter how famous they are, can't be popular in our country, it's impossible for me to conquer the ugly people." Yue Guan was very calm: "There aren't many good Asian characters in Hollywood, and there are not many good Asian characters in the country. The ceiling in Hollywood is just Cheng Long, and it has no appeal to me."

Instead of relying on Hollywood movies to rise, Yue Guan feels that if he produces a few Xianxia blockbusters, the influence of Hollywood blockbusters may be greater.

After all, the Dragon Kingdom conquered the world, and some of its culture has spread to various parts of the world.

Although the Dragon Kingdom was defeated in the First World War, and the Dragon Kingdom only took back Asia in World War II, and its cultural inheritance around the world was cut off, it was still somewhat popular.

If you create a fairy tale in this world, you can expect foreign influence and box office.

This is also the reason why Yue Guan wants to study the ancient myth system.

Mo Xiangwan admitted that what Yue Guan said made sense, but she still insisted on her own opinion: "Anyway, if Marvel is really sincere, why not take advantage of this opportunity? Don't give up the chance." Nope. I’ll contact them again and find out whether it’s a domestic special edition or whether it’s also available overseas. I’ll also find out what role Marvel plans to let you play.”

"If you're willing to bother, go ahead and ask, but don't hold out too much hope." Yue Guan himself didn't take it seriously.

But somehow the news got out.

The news that Marvel wanted to invite Yue Guan to join the Avengers instantly detonated the entire Internet.

Yue Guan's fans simply cheered.

"Oh my god, my favorite star is getting married to my favorite movie franchise."

"I would trade being single upstairs for the rest of my life in exchange for this news being true."

"His Majesty has already reached the top in the country, and now that he has boarded the big ship of Marvel, doesn't it mean that he will soon become an international superstar?"

"Don't touch porcelain upstairs. The only international superstar is Teacher Six."

"I just want to ask, apart from His Majesty, who else is a domestic star that Marvel can invite?"

Yue Guan saw these comments.

He frowned a little.

Fans have been a little bit crazy lately.

Although he is indeed very popular recently, he is actually not too high-profile. After the box office of "Pure Heart: Dream Chaser" exceeded 1.5 billion, Yue Guan, although he met many big shots, rarely showed up in public to show off.

After showing off a series of operations in "Let's Talk", Yue Guan immediately began to retreat to study ancient mythological materials. It can be said that he deliberately reduced his exposure.

Everything must be reversed at its extremes. Now that his status has been reached, there is no need to pursue popularity too much.

But he is low-key, and his fans are not low-key at all.

Although he didn't pay attention deliberately, Mo Xiangwan also reminded him that his fans have been swollen recently.

The Dragon Kingdom has such a large population, and as the most popular star in the Dragon Kingdom, it is inevitable that he will attract a lot of young fans and idiot fans.

As soon as the news came out that Marvel invited Yue Guan to join the Avengers, these fans immediately became excited.

It’s normal to go to Yueguan’s Weibo to post congratulations.

There are actually many people who take the initiative to stir up troubles with other celebrities.

Yue Guan couldn't sit still.

"Sister Xiang Wan, are these people really my fans?"

"Definitely. It's not surprising. You are so popular now. It's impossible for all your fans to stay sane. Help you make the whole world your enemy. Basic operations."

Mo Xiangwan had seen this kind of thing many times before, and he was not generally calm.

But Yue Guan was not calm, mainly because he thought of many seniors.

Some of these seniors have committed crimes themselves, and some have not committed crimes themselves, but one of their common characteristics is that their fans are very jumpy and look for trouble for them everywhere.

In the end, with the concerted efforts of some fans, these seniors succeeded.

There were too many similar examples, which made Yue Guan feel uneasy.

"Do I have to restrain my fans?" Yue Guan began to think about this matter seriously.

Mo Xiangwan shook his head: "There's no need. You can sit upright yourself, and fans dancing won't affect you. And don't just see them dancing well. Many people really love you. Yours Weibo data is now No. 1 on the entire Internet, and they created it for you."

"The key is that I don't need Weibo data." Yue Guan was helpless: "I even posted on Weibo specifically to ask fans not to spend money on me on Weibo."

However, he has too many fans.

Because of Yue Guan's relationship, this world has created some butterfly effects. Traffic stars are far less influential than in their previous lives, so the world has no intuitive concept of the fighting power of traffic fans.

But the world already has an idea of the fighting power of Yueguan fans.

Just two words - invincible.

If Yue Guan releases a song, it will definitely be number one on the hit charts within two days.

Yue Guan's TV series became an instant hit after it aired.

A total of three Yue Guan films were made, occupying the top three in the domestic box office rankings.

His fans are really awesome.

Mo Xiangwan felt that there was no need to worry unfoundedly: "It's always a good thing to have someone supporting you. I know you want to be a powerful person, so there will be no conflict. You also attracted fans through your works. What's there to be embarrassed about?"

"I'm not embarrassed, I just feel that once there are too many people, it's easy for the good to be mixed, and it's easy to backfire on the good ones."

At this time, Yue Guan browsed Mo Xiangwan's Weibo and found that it had also been occupied by his fans.

Most of the comments were "Come on Sister Xiang Wan, win the role for His Majesty", and a few were more unpleasant, "Mo Xiangwan, you have been eating free money behind His Majesty, only getting paid and not working, can you let us take a look at your performance?" Are you capable of working?" "Mo Xiangwan, if you can't win Marvel's pie, take the blame and resign as soon as possible. A pig is better than you as His Majesty's agent."

Seeing these negative comments, Yue Guan frowned: "Sister Xiang Wan, are you sure these people are really my fans?"

Mo Xiangwan casually clicked on a Weibo user interface that was cursing her. It was full of posts calling for Yue Guan's promotion.

Mo Xiangwan smiled and said, "I said she is not your fan, do you believe it?"

"My fans, why do they scold you?"

"It's normal. Agents are scolded. All celebrities' agents will be questioned by fans about their ability to work. I was scolded all the way." Mo Xiangwan had a really good attitude: "Besides, a lot of what they said is also true. Since I signed you, you have always led me forward, and I have rarely been able to help you. Your resources are all your own, and there is no need for me to help you fight for them. These fans question my work. The ability is not surprising either.”

Yue Guan's face looked a little ugly.

He had neglected these things before, and he really didn't know that Mo Xiangwan had been under this kind of pressure.

Mo Xiangwan saw something was wrong with Yue Guan's mood, and quickly persuaded him: "Yue Guan, don't be impulsive. You have to know that although these fans don't like me, they really like you. They have If you don’t like my freedom, this cannot be forced.”

"Sister Xiang Wan, I understand. I won't blame my fans."

Yue Guan took a deep breath: "As you said, it is everyone's right to like and dislike who they like. I have no right to ask them to like the person I like."

Mo Xiangwan breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be great if Yue Guan could understand this truth.

She was really afraid that Yue Guan would attack her fans because of her. That would be too irrational.

Yue Guan will definitely not do such stupid things.

But Mo Xiangwan didn't see the determination in Yue Guan's eyes.

He certainly won't scold fans who like him.

But he would not let Mo Xiangwan be wronged like this.

Mo Xiangwan helped him a lot, and could even be said to be the person who had helped him the most so far.

Of course, he also gave Mo Xiangwan enough reward.

Theoretically, he didn't owe Mo Xiangwan anything.

But when we get along with others, how can we only rely on theory

Yue Caring silently made a decision.

At this time, Mo Xiangwan received a call.

She walked aside and connected the phone. After a while, Yue Guan noticed that Mo Xiangwan's face looked a little ugly.

Five minutes later, Mo Xiangwan hung up the phone and took a deep breath: "This is very bad news."

Yue Guan vaguely heard some English, so it was easy to guess the person on the other end of the phone.

"Did Marvel get a reply from you?"

"Yeah, they gave you a piece of the pie, a solo superhero project, a solo movie."

This should have been good news, but there was no joy on Mo Xiangwan's face.

When Yue Guan saw Mo Xiangwan's appearance, his heart moved slightly: "It can't be Shang Qi, right?"

Mo Xiangwan smiled bitterly: "Your mind works so fast, you guessed it so quickly."

"Actually, it's not difficult to guess." Yue Guan sneered: "No wonder he said he would let me join the Avengers. Shang-Chi is really a genuine yellow man in the comics, and he is indeed a member of the Avengers."

It's just that this character is a disgrace, and it's official.

Yue Guan would only take this role unless he was mentally ill.

He is not Best Actor Liang, so he can accept movies like this.

"Reject it directly. Marvel wants to die. I won't accompany you. I will only step on you."

How stupid would it be for him, a native of the Dragon Kingdom, to play a role that humiliates a beauty

"You don't need to tell me, I have already rejected it. I originally thought it would be a good opportunity for you to go out." Mo Xiangwan smiled bitterly and was very puzzled: "Is the person in charge of Marvel mentally ill? He wants to develop Dragon Kingdom In the market, do you still want to film such a humiliating role? Are you smart?"

"Shang-Chi didn't shoot it for us, but for people abroad. Just like it was politically correct for me to mock the ugly country in "Pure Heart·Chasing Dreams", it is also politically correct to insult beautiful women abroad. It's not surprising, what's strange is that Marvel actually thinks that I can step into this kind of cesspit." Yue Guan felt that his IQ was insulted.
