This Emperor is Only An Actor

Chapter 602: Upgraded version of The Richest Man in Xihong City

Views:

As soon as Yue Guan returned to his seat and sat down, Da Tiantian asked curiously: "Who is that person?"

"The chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala."

"No wonder you chatted with him for so long." Da Tiantian suddenly said: "You want to go to the Spring Festival Gala?"

"That's wrong. He wanted to invite me to the Spring Festival Gala and gave me time for two songs."

Da Tiantian was shocked: "Are you so proud? In 2013, the singer withdrew from the Spring Festival Gala recording that year because he could only sing one song."

Yue Guan touched his face.

"It's not big. I haven't gained weight recently."

Da Tiantian: "..."

"Okay, I've already refused, don't make such a fuss."

This time Da Tiantian and Shen Teng made a fuss together.

"Two songs... you actually refused? Yue Guan, do you know that people like you will be beaten in the entertainment industry?" Datian said sweetly.

Shen Teng nodded: "I agree with Tiantian, he deserves a beating."

"It's useless." Yue Guan shook his head and said: "In the past, whoever went to the Spring Festival Gala was famous, but now the Spring Festival Gala has changed to whoever is famous. Even if you go to the Spring Festival Gala, you will not gain much. Since Xiao Shenyang, the Spring Festival Gala is still popular. Are you more popular than others?"

Shen Teng wanted to talk about himself.

However, although his sketch in the Spring Festival Gala was well received, it was obviously not as good as the sketch king's sketch in quality.

The increase in his popularity brought by the Spring Festival Gala was not even as great as the increase brought about by the soft press releases sent to him by the crew of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" during this period.

Indeed, as Yue Guan said, the Spring Festival Gala has now lost its ability to entertain people.

It doesn't make much difference whether it's higher or not.

Da Tiantian was thoughtful.

"I put in a lot of effort every year to attend the Spring Festival Gala." Da Tiantian said.

"You can go if you want, but if you want to use the Spring Festival Gala to gain fame, forget it. If you really want to gain fame, it's better to act in a TV series or variety show. It's much better than going to the Spring Festival Gala."

"I said that I felt like I had attended the Spring Festival Gala, but my number of fans didn't increase much."

Da Tiantian regretted a little.

Recording the Spring Festival Gala is very troublesome.

Although it is a great honor, the continuous rehearsals waste time and energy.

It just so happens that such a waste of time and energy results in little gain.

For people like Yue Guan who value value for money, this is indeed a good choice.

Before, Da Tiantian only thought it was an honor to be on the Spring Festival Gala and be seen by audiences across the country and even the Chinese audience around the world, and didn't think about anything else.

Hearing what Yue Guan said, she also felt a little bit useless.

However, Shen Teng did not change his mind.

"The Spring Festival Gala has given me popularity. As long as the Spring Festival Gala needs me and I can still produce good works, I will still attend."

"Brother Teng, come on, your skit is very suitable for the Spring Festival Gala." Yue Guan said.

After the sketch king stopped participating in the Spring Festival Gala, the number of sketches in the Spring Festival Gala declined.

Other sketch actors have also reached the age of retirement, and more and more older generation sketch actors are withdrawing from the Spring Festival Gala.

Shen Teng is really a new pillar.

Without him, the sketch section of the Spring Festival Gala would probably be like cross talk, with no successor.

The three of them didn't chat for long.

Because "The Richest Man in Xihong City" will soon begin its official screening.

The lights go out.

Wang Duoyu, played by Shen Teng, appeared on the big screen.

At the beginning of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", Mr. Jin, the "wife" of Mr. Wang Duoyu, tests Wang Duoyu and pays him to play a match-fixing game.

The original Mr. Jin was played by Zhang Chenguang, who did a very good job, but Yue Guan didn't recognize him.

But for this role, Yue Guan didn't invite these sketch actors.

Again, he made "The Richest Man in Xihong City" not to make a sketch, but to make a movie.

So he couldn't let the style be too sketchy.

Especially among the sketch actors, many of them are northeastern, and this kind of laughter is not universal across the country, so Yue Guan deliberately controlled these elements so as not to affect the feeling of the entire drama to the audience.

After comprehensive consideration, the role of Mr. Jin was given to Jin Shijie.

Genuine Mr. Kim.

Jin Shijie's acting skills are only better than those of the original actor Zhang Chenguang, and the character of Mr. Jin actually does not have to be responsible for comedy. He is one of the few or even the only relatively normal character in the drama "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

Basically, you can find a more orthodox veteran actor to perform well.

Jin Shijie is naturally not a problem.

Anyway, in Yue Guanyan, Mr. Jin played by Jin Shijie is better than that played by Zhang Chenguang in the original version. After all, he filmed it himself, with filters, and does not accept refutation.

Wang Duoyu successfully passed Mr. Jin's test and did not engage in match-fixing, so he was qualified to inherit his second grandfather's legacy.

The process of playing basketball, as well as the scene where Wang Duoyu and his best friend Zhuang Qiang were dismissed from the team, were full of laughter.

"Next, I will rely on the excellent explosive power of my gluteus maximus and outer thigh muscles to jump up and make a second save."

"Duoyu, if you want to be more open-minded, those who think you are playing match-fixing are a small group of people in society who don't understand football. Everyone in our team trusts you very much and thinks you are just incompetent."

Laughter kept ringing in the screening room. For Shen Teng and Da Tiantian, these laughter were like the sound of nature.

Yue Guan was very calm.

This kind of scene has been proven, and it's a damn thing if it's not funny.

However, this version of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" filmed by Yue Guan has more laughs than the original version.

This is not Yue Guan's credit.

The actors he hired are so awesome.

Some of the plot points that weren't originally funny were also made very funny.

They don't even have to act, just seeing their faces makes the audience want to laugh.

For example, when the video of Mr. Wang Duoyu appeared on the big screen, the face of Sketch King, which is very familiar to audiences across the country, appeared on the screen.

Before the sketch king opened his mouth, Yue Guan heard someone laughing next to him.

Even Da Tiantian beside him grinned unconsciously.

This is not the charm of the movie plot, but purely the actor's personal charm.

When it comes to how to make the audience laugh, the only one in Quan Long Kingdom that can compete with the Sketch King is Zhou Xingchi. A level below them is where Shen Teng, Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang and others compete.

There is no doubt that although the second master did not appear much, he was played by the king of sketches and made huge laughs.

Obviously the lines are not classic, but the King of Sketch's skills are too good to stand up to them.

The second master played by Wang Duoyu in the sketch gave Wang Duoyu a test. He had to spend one billion in one month to complete the task before he could inherit his inheritance of 30 billion.

If this is not possible, the legacy of the Sketch King must be handed over to a professional institution for custody.

The two heads of the original hosting agency actually acted well.

But the two leads in this version performed better.

Because these two people are played by Feng Gong and Guo Da.

When these two people come together, if they don't make the audience laugh, it would be a shame for this combination.

As it turns out, they did.

The plot is actually not much different from the original version, but Feng Gong and Guo Da's own laughter and their interpretation of the laughter are obviously far better than the actors in the original version.

For example, for the same test paper, some people can get 80 points, but some people can only get 95 points.

Feng Gong and Guo Da are the kind of academic masters who can score 95 points in the exam.

They not only know how to be funny, but also know how to act.

They are very knowledgeable about how to bring laughter to such elite performances.

In fact, it was the first time for many viewers to discover that the acting skills of these sketch actors were so good, and they were also very bluffing when they put on suits and played elites.

Of course.

Mr. Feng himself was a son of a noble family, a serious fourth generation man. Although he was in decline, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse.

There are no more than ten people with entertainment backgrounds who can compare with Feng Niu Niu.

How could such a person not be able to play an elite role well

Not to mention Guo Da.

Anyone who has watched "The Punisher of the Song Dynasty" probably knows that when Guo Dastanson gets serious about acting, even Teacher He Bing may not be able to suppress him.

Most of these sketch actors have better acting skills than 99% of people in the entertainment industry.

It’s not just Fan Wei and Sketch King who won the Best Actor award.

Even if he has never won the Best Actor Award, he dares to perform live in front of billions of viewers like the Spring Festival Gala without making any mistakes, how can his acting skills be poor

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" made the audience aware of the acting skills of this group of sketch actors.

When they get serious, their acting is really good.

Quality and laughs go hand in hand.

Even Shen Teng's light was somewhat robbed by them.

Xu Zheng felt like laughing and feeling uncomfortable at the same time.

Zhao Zhetian is similar.

They both realized the problem.

Obviously the plot is not very funny, but it is particularly funny when played by this group of actors.

This makes it difficult for the opponent.

And Yueguan is naturally very comfortable.

After all, he used this group of actors. If they performed well, it was obvious that the director was very good.

Although he didn't do much sex.

Of course, no matter how well these sketch masters perform, the core selling point of the drama "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is still Wang Duoyu played by Shen Teng, and Yue Guan has not changed at all from the beginning to the end.

The plot of the story has always revolved around Wang Duoyu.

The biggest laugh always lies in Wang Duoyu.

Yue Guan's filming of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" did not mean to satirize reality at all. But when a poor man suddenly owns one billion and has to spend it all within a month, what happens during this period is very magical and realistic in itself.

So the plot will naturally be magical and hilarious.

Suddenly there was an extra billion, and he had to spend the money reasonably and legally within a month. Wang Duoyu was racking his brains.

I invested in a "land swimmer", an idea that seemed unreliable at first glance, thinking I could make a small fortune, but as soon as I invested, more than 100,000 people tried it.

When buying Sunset Industries stocks, Wang Duoyu wanted to wait for the limit to fall, delist, and be locked up. However, because he took 40 million to have a meal with the stock god, the media interpreted it as "trading", and he made 100 million backhand.

His men built a deserted old house and somehow managed to develop it into housing in a school district, earning 1 billion.

It is worth mentioning that when Zhuang Qiang, played by Xiao Yang, introduced the smart guy played by Director Bi to Shen Teng, the audience who recognized Director Bi instantly became excited.

Especially with Shen Teng’s lines:

"I never thought that an ordinary elementary school could train both of you at the same time."

And that sentence that made the audience burst into laughter:

Smart: "Have you heard my story?"

Wang Duoyu: "Your face is full of stories."

Many viewers got direct access to Director Bi's "Pure Heart·Chasing the Dream Showbiz".

Then, I sprayed it directly.

Seeing this, Xu Zheng also admired Yue Guan's vision in selecting people.

"This role was actually given to Director Bi. Yue Guan's vision in selecting actors is really good."

In the minds of many viewers, Director Bi and Wang Duoyu are a match made in heaven.

But what’s even more funny is that someone as smart as Director Bi can actually make money after he has enough money, and even make a lot of money.

In the words of Director Bi, "I admit that I gambled, but I won the gamble."

Wang Duoyu, played by Shen Teng, was dumbfounded.

And the audience burst into laughter.

It is really difficult for rich people to spend their money reasonably and legally.

And the magic of money is really powerful.

This is also vividly demonstrated in the plot.

The plot of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was not completely copied by Yue Guan. Yue Guan retained all the funny plots, but the inspirational plots were directly deleted by Yue Guan.

There is no need for Wang Duoyu to be inspirational.

It is enough to carry the joke to the end.

In the original version of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", Wang Duoyu's inspirational football playing conflicted with the setting of being a prodigal, and the forced play on the emotional line of a domineering president falling in love with me also made the tone of the whole drama a bit inconsistent.

This is the case with comedy movies. Once positive energy is forced, it won't be funny.

Yueguan does not force positive energy.

He came directly with an upgraded one.

In the original version of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", Wang Duoyu only wanted to play football with the Hengtai team. This idea was too futile.

Yue Guan asked Wang Duoyu to spend a lot of money.

He just spent a lot of money and smashed the Real Madrid club.

In the plot of the movie, foreigners originally looked down upon Wang Duoyu, a local tycoon, but as the numbers on Wang Duoyu's checks continued to increase, the person in charge of Real Madrid's business directly knelt down. This plot is not particularly funny, but it is very enjoyable.

This plot doesn't even make sense, but it's so cool.

Between making the audience happy and pursuing reasonableness, Yue Guan decisively chose to make the audience happy.

So what if it’s unreasonable

How much box office can the Reasonable Party contribute

Obviously, by replacing Hengtai with Real Madrid, the plot has obviously been upgraded.

No inspiration, no passion, no touching.

Funny movies don’t need that.

There is just the magic of money.

It's so satisfying to knock foreigners to their knees with money.

There was also the "** formation" that made the audience laugh miserably.

After playing against Real Madrid, Wang Duoyu discovered that Xia Zhu had been kidnapped and asked Wang Duoyu to pay her to ransom her.

Once he used the money to redeem Xia Zhu, it meant that he would not be able to spend all the billion and would lose the right to inherit the thirty billion.

This is a choice between 30 billion and a woman.

To be fair, if it were Yue Guan, he would definitely choose a woman. No one would choose a woman worth 30 billion for him anyway.

But if it were Wang Duoyu, choosing a woman would be fake.

Not just because of 30 billion.

Also because Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu have no relationship at all...

They have only known each other for less than a month, and their good feelings were all bought with money. If this is true love, then Shangguan Xingfeng and his goddesses are all true love.

No matter how much positive energy is forced, this is not true love.

Therefore, there is no reason for Wang Duoyu to give up 30 billion for Xia Zhu.

But Wang Duoyu definitely wants to save Xia Zhu.

Urban comedy must not kill people.

Therefore, Wang Duoyu must be given a reason to save people.

The original version didn't give it, it was just a forced rescue, and then Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu "lovers" finally got married.

Yue Guan gave the reason.

But he didn't say it explicitly in the plot, but just hinted at it in the picture:

When Xia Zhu was captured, Wang Duoyu called Mr. Jin and asked for money to rescue Xia Zhu, but Mr. Jin refused.

At this time, Wang Duoyu thought of Mr. Jin’s test at the beginning of the plot:

Give him money and let him play match-fixing.

He didn't take any money, so he was qualified to inherit his second grandfather's estate.

Start with a test.

Ending with another test.

Comedy movies don't need too many twists.

But a complete story is also needed.

There is no doubt that Yue Guan's version of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" tells a complete story.

When the screening of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" ended, the audience quickly burst into thunderous applause.
