This Emperor is Only An Actor

Chapter 698: The decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City

Views:

In fact, with Yue Guan's current status, ordinary variety shows are really not necessary for him at all.

He lacks neither money nor fame, so the salary and popularity brought by variety shows cannot attract him. On the contrary, he has to worry about losing fans because of poor performance.

Even his participation in the variety show itself may cause him to lose fans.

This is really not an exaggeration.

In my previous life, the international chapter was sold out and she went to record variety shows. Then she, a 13-year-old fan and the owner of her personal post bar, lost her fandom because she was too bad at recording variety shows, and she even became a hot topic. Search.

There was quite a fuss about this incident at the time, but of course, it was definitely settled in the end, and the fans took all the blame.

However, career fans are also fans. Although Yue Guan doesn't want to be completely kidnapped, he doesn't feel that he has to disappoint people.

It is a deep-rooted belief that recording variety shows is of lower quality than filming, and to be honest, there is nothing wrong with it. If a variety show star could transform into a movie star, any one of them would be willing to do so.

So since Yue Guan can be a movie star, he doesn't bother to gain popularity in variety shows, and he doesn't lack this.

But if you make a transition, it’s actually not impossible.

After all, filming all the time, this kind of thing does not exist in theory.

Cheng Long and Li Lianjie are both international superstars. They will go to variety shows to promote or interview, as long as they don't regard variety shows as their main business.

He has never missed a movie in recent years, so occasionally recording a variety show will not misunderstand his fans.

But what kind of variety show to record also needs to be carefully considered.

He would definitely not consider running man or those kinds of variety shows. Filming that kind of variety show would be completely harmful to him now, and it would be useless no matter how good the reputation is, because it is not the same as his own positioning.

He doesn't need to rely on this grounding.

But he has accepted a lot of talk and variety shows before, and it will be difficult for him to stand out again.

Thinking about it this way, Yue Guan still had a headache.

"Sister Xiang Wan, you feel that I'm at this point. It's not easy to record a variety show. My status is too high. Ordinary celebrities don't dare to play with me." Yue Guan said distressedly.

Mo Xiangwan rolled his eyes at Yue Guan: "I'm one of you, don't pretend to be cool and talk like a human being."

"I really didn't show off this time. Sister Xiang Wan, think about it for yourself. Is this the case? If I go to participate in that kind of outdoor reality show, even if I say in advance that I am an ordinary person, those celebrities, no matter what, The director of the program team will definitely take care of me," Yue Guandao said.

This is not his problem alone.

All big names get special treatment when they go to record variety shows.

In the previous life, when Sister Baiyi and Huang Xiaoming went to record Running Man, the seven-member Running Man team almost gave up and basically gave up the whole process. When it comes to tearing up a name tag, the Running Man Seven's name tags will fall off as soon as they are ripped off, but Huang Xiaoming's name tag is sewn directly onto his clothes and cannot be torn off at all.

This is no longer called a dark curtain, this is called an open curtain.

But that's the rules of the industry.

Otherwise, why would celebrities record variety shows

Go and carry the sedan chair for Xiao Ga

Isn't that a disease

Yue Guan doesn't want to change this rule, and he doesn't have masochism.

Only young people who believe in the ugly country will believe in fairness. There is never absolute fairness. Besides, if successful people and ordinary people are treated in the same way, it would be unfair in a sense.

Mo Xiangwan thought for a while and found that this was indeed the case: "With your current energy and status, other people really can't let go when recording a variety show. The program team probably wouldn't dare to edit you maliciously, but if they forcefully praise you... In fact, it's not It’s easy to offend netizens.”

"That's what I'm worried about. There are so many main themes in the play, but not many audiences like it. Because if you force it to be embarrassing, the audience won't accept it, so it's really difficult."

Mo Xiangwan also found it a bit difficult: "Otherwise, you should go filming. "My Love from the Star" is actually not bad. You can just relax by filming an idol drama, and your fans won't have much objection."

"The fans attracted by this kind of drama are relatively fanatical and younger. If I were a popular star, I would definitely accept it. But now that I am out of that level, I don't need to be on the charts to attract fans. There is no need to attract this kind of fans." Yue Guankan He glanced at Mo Xiangwan and added: "Sister Xiangwan, if I have more fans like this, you will probably be scolded again in the future."

There is no fan of a popular celebrity who doesn’t criticize the people around the celebrity, saying that the team always feels sorry for their brothers and sisters.

When that time comes, you have to wash the powder again.

trouble.

Mo Xiangwan was a little moved: "You don't have to think about me."

"You are my woman, why should I consider others instead of you?" Yue Guan asked naturally.

Mo Xiangwan felt warm inside.

"Then you decide for yourself, I will listen to you."

Yue Guan knocked on the table and suddenly remembered something: "What happened to the script of the palace battle drama I asked the screenwriting department to write?"

"Semi-finished product, you didn't want to shoot it in a short time, so it's not their priority. What's wrong? You want to shoot it now? It's too late." Mo Xiangwan frowned.

Yue Guan has always wanted to make a palace battle drama, and she knows that.

Although she didn't know why Yue Guan had such a bad taste, there was never a lack of market for palace fighting dramas. Since Yue Guan liked it, of course she didn't care.

However, Yue Guan said that he would not touch that drama in the short term, so Mo Xiangwan didn't care too much.

Yue Guan knocked on the table and suddenly smiled: "The drama will definitely not be filmed this year, but I can select the actors in advance."

Mo Xiangwan looked at Yue Guan in surprise: "There is no script, how can we choose actors?"

"Sister Xiang Wan, generally speaking, there are two ways to write scripts. One way is to choose the actors after the script is written. The other way is to determine the actors first and then write the script around the actors."

"I know this, but is there such a prestigious actress in the entertainment industry today?" Mo Xiangwan didn't understand: "Who dares to act like a big name in front of our company and ask for such special treatment? Are you not in your right mind?"

If Yue Guan goes out to take roles from other companies now, he can ask for this kind of treatment.

There is nothing wrong with Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's request.

But when other actors came to film a Miracle Company movie and wanted to make such a request, Mo Xiangwan's first reaction was that they were out of their minds.

That’s not how big names act.

Yue Guan's smile was a little subtle: "There are indeed no actresses with such great reputations in the entertainment industry now, but we can create this opportunity for them. I have decided what kind of variety show I want to do."

"What's the meaning?"

"Sister Xiang Wan, help me contact Li Yian." Yue Guan's topic was very jumpy.

Mo Xiangwan said warily: "She just got divorced, what do you want to do?"

Yue Guan: "...Sister Xiang Wan, I feel that my personality has been insulted. Who do you think I am?"

"I don't have to think about it. I know exactly who you are." Mo Xiangwan was absolutely confident in this.

As soon as Yue Guan stuck out his butt, she knew what Yue Guan was going to fart.

Facing an agent who knew him so well, Yue Guan was helpless: "Sister Xiang Wan, you really think too much. It's not like you don't know Li Yian's background. I only provoke her when I'm full. Besides, , she is so much older than me, am I that non-vegetarian?"

Mo Xiangwan was right to think about it.

Although Yue Guan has always been a vegetarian, he still has a bottom line.

Li Yian really doesn't look like someone in Yueguan's hunting range.

Besides, Yue Guan has no precedent of attacking a director.

Thinking about this, Mo Xiangwan relaxed a little, but still reminded: "She has just divorced. If you get too close to her now, it will be easy for the media to get involved in her affairs. You have to know it yourself. , this is not a good thing for you or her."

"Don't worry, I just want to cooperate with her and don't want to do anything else." Yue Guan said.

Mo Xiangwan thought of Li Yian's name and nodded: "If we were to film a palace drama, Li Yian would indeed be our first choice."

Li Yian, the daughter of the clan, has a similar status to Li Ruotong. They are both collateral members of the collateral line, so there is no such thing as inheriting family property. There is no throne in the family. If she has no future, she can still live a life of food and clothing. , but I think it’s very carefree, but it’s actually difficult.

After all, there are a lot of people in the royal family. In addition to the direct line, the collateral line can only rely on their own efforts, otherwise the people will not agree.

Li Yian is one of the best members of the royal family.

What makes her better than Li Ruotong is her talent.

Li Yian is one of the best female directors in the Dragon Kingdom. She is best at filming palace dramas and is known as the number one director of palace dramas.

Her female perspective makes her particularly good at portraying and shaping female characters. She previously filmed a palace-fighting drama that won the highest ratings of the year eight years ago. There are also two other palace-fighting dramas that are also phenomena. It is the kind of hit drama that sparked national discussion and has since then completely established its position in the industry.

Although Yue Guan had never heard of Li Yian in his previous life, in this life, when everyone talks about Gongdou Opera, she is the first director that comes to mind.

When Yue Guan first wanted to film a palace-fighting drama, the first director he thought of was Li Yi'an.

However, because he didn't want to shoot immediately, he just had a brief chat with Li Yian, but did not finalize the shooting time.

Of course Li Yian did not reject Yue Guan.

Although she was already successful, she certainly had no reason to refuse the cooperation offered by Yue Guan.

And although she did a good job in the palace battle drama before, the actors she chose were really not top-notch. Sun Li was the most famous actress she had ever used, but when she used it, Sun Li was not a big name, and she could even Said that she made him famous.

Yue Guan promised her that he would play the emperor and bring her a group of popular actresses. Li Yian was excited when he heard it, and agreed to cooperate with Yue Guan at that time, without even considering the director's fee.

If the play is a hit, the director cannot be short of money.

Besides, Yue Guan has always been generous to directors, so Li Yian is not worried.

However, after they took a breath, there was no further in-depth contact because Yue Guan had been busy with other dramas and he had no idea of starting this drama in a short period of time.

And Li Yian has been dealing with housework.

There were some problems in her marriage.

Mo Xiangwan quickly agreed on a time to meet with Li Yian.

Three hours later, Yue Guan and Li Yian sat together to eat.

When Yue Guan saw Li Yian at first sight, he noticed that the other person's face was much more haggard than the last time he saw him. His whole body was like a flower that had lost its moisture, and he felt like he was dying.

"Sister, he's just a scumbag. Are you so sad for him?" Yue Guan asked with concern.

It's no secret that Li Yian and her ex-husband just divorced.

The reason is also very simple:

Her ex-husband was also a small director in the industry. After one collaboration, Li Yian and her ex-husband fell in love with each other.

Although Li Yian did not have her current status at that time, she was still considered a very popular new director in the industry. Coupled with her status as a collateral member of the royal family and her good looks, she actually had no shortage of suitors, and they were Their status is not low.

But she finally decided to stay with her ex-husband, even though her ex-husband was nothing at the time and she had no complaints.

This is probably love.

She basically provides the house and car, which is actually the combination of Phoenix Man and Bai Fumei.

After the marriage, the young director became more prominent in the industry with the help of Li Yian, and he filmed many movies. Li Yian even worked as an assistant director for him, just to make him famous.

The effect is indeed there.

Although her ex-husband did not become a famous director, he was indeed well-known in the industry, and he was no longer the Phoenix man he once was. Even if he left her, he would still be filming.

If the story only ended here, it would be a heartwarming love story.

Unfortunately, there are many stories in this world but very little love.

One day when Li Yian came home, he saw his ex-husband and an actress discussing the mysteries of life during their marriage.

There are also wedding photos of her and her ex-husband hanging on the wall.

Li Yian became furious on the spot and took action directly.

Originally, she was reasonable, but her actions were a bit harsh...

Her ex-husband was also a ruthless man. After he determined that she was not willing to settle the matter, he directly escalated the matter and demanded a division of their joint property.

And Li Yian wanted him to clean up and leave the house, and even compensate herself. After all, her ex-husband was the one at fault.

The two of them did not sign a prenuptial agreement before. After the marriage, because of their trust, they mixed each other's money and even invested together. This thing is really difficult to separate.

Of course, Li Yian must be responsible for this matter in theory, but after all, she is not a direct descendant of the royal family, and she beat someone. The other party was also very resourceful. Although Li Yian won the case in the end, this divorce case did have a considerable negative impact on Li Yian.

Yue Guan has read the news about Li Yian, and after reading it, he has only one thought: he is afraid of marriage every day, and there is no such thing as being single.

Li Yian glanced at Yue Guan and said with a wry smile: "I'm not angry with him, I'm angry with myself for being blind."

"Calm down, who hasn't experienced a few scumbag men and scumbag women in their lifetime?" Yue Guan consoled him.

"Have you encountered this before?" Li Yian hoped to get some comfort from Yue Guan.

People are like this. Once they see that the other person is worse off than themselves, they no longer feel how miserable they are.

Unfortunately, she found the wrong person.

Yue Guan shrugged and said, "That's not true. I don't even want to fall in love, let alone get married. I'm single and I don't have a chance if others want to have sex with me."

The best way to remain undefeated in the chess world is not to play chess.

Ke Jie was defeated by AlphaGo, but AlphaGo still failed to defeat Yue Guan.

Therefore, Yue Guan's chess skills are greater than Ke Jie's, so there is nothing wrong with him.

Li Yian: "... You should understand clearly that it won't matter if you don't get married."

"Sister Yi An, don't think so. There are still good men, such as me. It's just that you are unlucky."

"There is nothing good about men."

Yue Guan coughed lightly: "That's too much. I have never cheated on someone else after I established a relationship."

When he was in love with Zhang Yin, he was only Zhang Yin, and it never happened that he had two things to do.

It was only after they broke up that he let himself go.

The day he gets an official girlfriend again, they will be together for the rest of their lives.

He is such a conservative man.

Li Yian also knew something about Yue Guan's character. When she heard Yue Guan say this, her expression was hard to describe, but she finally said: "No matter what, you are better than that scumbag. When he proposed to me back then, , he told me personally that I could take a male attendant, but he would never take a concubine under any circumstances."

"If it were me, I would definitely not swear like that and just say the ugly thing first. I can take concubines, but you can love me, Sima." Yue Guan said it naturally.

Yue·Longguo's famous double standard·Guan has always been like this and has not changed.

But Li Yian also admires people like Yue Guan who put double standards on the table.

"Although it is shameless for you to do this, after all, the law allows it, and you have shown your shamelessness. If he had had your courage, I might not have divorced him." Li Yian said.

What she couldn't stand was going back on her word.

If you can't do that, don't label yourself a saint.

It's better to be like Yue Guan.

But in fact, if his ex-husband was really like Yue Guan, she wouldn't accept it.

Yue Guan said truthfully: "Sister Yi An, don't blame me for speaking outright. Your ex-husband doesn't even have half of my abilities. He wants to be as bold as me, but if he really dares to imitate me, you'll slap him right then." Shoot him to death. Privileges are accompanied by one's own strength. If he doesn't have those three points, he will naturally not dare to go to Liangshan."

Li Yian finally laughed out loud: "What you said makes sense. If he dared to say such things as you when he proposed, I would definitely beat his brains out."

Yue Guan dared to say this because he had the confidence to say so.

If he were a Phoenix man, he wouldn't dare to show off like this.

Just like when he was in love with Zhang Yin, he would definitely not dare to say this before marriage.

But now Yue Guan dares.

In fact, he is still as pure as before.

It's just that the improvement in strength has brought about changes.

"Don't mention him anymore. It affects your mood. Let's get down to business. Why did you come to see me?" Li Yian asked.

Yue Guan glanced at Li Yian who looked haggard, and was a little worried: "Sister Yi'an, are you in the right condition for work now?"

"Don't worry, I'm so many years older than you after all. Although this is the first divorce, it has already recovered and it won't affect my work. You also said that he is just a scumbag and is not worth my sadness for him. I If you look for it, you will definitely find something better in the future." Li Yian said.

"Of course, sister Yi An, you are known as the most beautiful director in the Dragon Kingdom. When you married that scumbag, many people in the industry sighed."

Li Yian made a joke: "It's not all your fault that you debuted too late. That scumbag can't do anything else except his good-looking face. If you had debuted two years earlier, my sister wouldn't have been fascinated by him."

Being able to make a joke means that the emotional injury has indeed almost recovered.

Yue Guan breathed a sigh of relief.

Just recover.

If he was still in a state of healing, he really wouldn't dare to use such a director.

He himself is an infatuated person, and he knows very well the negative impact that falling out of love can have on people.

"If being handsome is a mistake, then I must have been unforgivable." Yue Guan sighed: "This matter is really my fault. I should have appeared earlier to correct everyone's aesthetics."

Li Yian laughed out loud again: "Yue Guan, I have never seen anyone more handsome than you, and I have never seen anyone more shameless than you."

"I'm just used to telling the truth, but the truth always hurts people." Yue Guan said calmly: "Okay, let's not discuss my appearance. It is recognized that there is no value in discussing. Let's get down to business. Sister Yi An, do you remember that I invited you before?"

Li Yian's eyes lit up: "You want to make a palace drama now? Has the script been written?"

"I really want to film it, but the script hasn't been written yet." Yue Guan told the truth.

"Do you want me to help you improve the script?" Li Yian pondered for a moment and nodded: "No problem, give me the outline of the script and I will help you complete it."

In most places in the Dragon Kingdom, the director is still in charge. In many cases, the director and the screenwriter are one, and basically all directors can do the work of the screenwriter.

Li Yian is no exception.

Many of the palace fight scenes she filmed before were written by herself.

So Li Yian was not surprised that Yue Guan turned to her for help.

But this time she guessed wrong.

"It's not time to write the script yet. I will definitely ask Sister Yi An to help me when the time comes."

"It's not time to write the script?" Li Yian really didn't understand: "Then why did you call me?"

"Sister Yi An, although your appearance is in line with my taste, I am not that casual person." Yue Guan said seriously.

Li Yian understood instantly, then a blush appeared on his pale face, and he spat lightly: "You still speak so openly to me, do you want to die?"

"Don't I want to help Sister Yi An get out of the shadow of divorce as soon as possible? In order to help you, I am heartbroken." Yue Guan gave himself a thumbs up.

Then before Li Yian got angry, he got down to business: "I called Sister Yi An here this time because I want you to help me choose actors."

"Choosing actors? Do you still need to choose actors for your play? I'm sure the entire entertainment industry is not vying for the actor's head."

Li Yian just doesn't have confidence in himself, but he also has confidence in Yue Guan.

There is nothing wrong with this logic.

Yue Guan chuckled and said: "There is definitely no shortage, but who to choose or not to choose is a question."

Li Yian understood something: "You want me to be the villain? Yue Guan, tell me honestly, how many of these female stars who want to audition for this drama are your women?"

Yue Guan coughed lightly: "Sister Yi An, you can change the question and ask how many of these female celebrities who came to audition are not my women."

Li Yian: "..."

After a long silence, Li Yian could only sigh with emotion: "You are in great shape."

Her ex-husband was unable to cope with her alone. She even felt that this was one of the reasons why her ex-husband cheated. After all, an unknown actor would pretend to be very comfortable.

But she didn't even bother to pretend.

However, someone like Yue Guan, who has experienced hundreds of battles, is definitely gifted.

Li Yian couldn't accept it.

A simple and honest smile appeared on Yue Guan's face: "Sister Yi An, you have given me a reward."

Li Yian: "..." I didn't mean to praise you.

Although he wanted to complain about Yue Guan, Li Yian endured it.

After all, he is the father of the funder and cannot be offended.

"How can I be considered such a villain?"

She feels that she is not at a loss. After all, she can direct Yue Guan, so she has made a profit no matter how she looks at it.

It is appropriate to be a villain for this reason.

If she gives up this opportunity, there are many directors who are willing to take over.

Yue Guan explained: "I'm not asking Sister Yi An to be the villain. I'm going to host a variety show called "Battle at the Forbidden City." Sister Yi An, you will be the judge. We will use a variety show to select actors. , whoever wins the championship of this show will be the queen of our show."

Li Yian: "..."

She swore to God that she had never seen anyone so good at playing.

Is this still possible

"What specific method should be used to select?" Li Yian asked.

Yue Guan explained: "It's very simple. You can use music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, calligraphy, etiquette, etc., as a talent show. As long as you win, you can advance to the next round. Of course, if you want to be a queen, in addition to having basic talents In addition, we also need to have means. So we recorded in the form of script killing, allowing the contestants to debut as show girls at the same time, playing the characters in the script killing. They do not play themselves in the variety show, but play a show girl. Successfully carve out a bloody path in an almost blank sheet of paper. If you want to defeat the opponent, you don't have to be truly stronger than the opponent. If you can defeat the opponent in other ways, you can still advance."

Li Yi'an was originally a clan girl and had been filming palace fighting dramas for many years. As soon as Yue Guan finished speaking, she understood what Yue Guan meant and looked at Yue Guan with the same look she was looking at Xiu'er.

"You want them to tear it apart."

Yue Guan said sternly: "Sister Yi An, how can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air? I just want to choose the right role. The drama is as big as the sky."

"I believe you." Li Yian rolled his eyes, and then rubbed his hands excitedly: "Isn't this the reality variety show version of Gongdouju? Yue Guan, you really know how to play, I recorded this show , but are you sure there will be actresses participating?"

Yue Guan smiled confidently: "Sister Yi An, you know absolutely nothing about power. If our program didn't restrict the registration conditions, your phone number would be blown up. Do you believe it?"

"Can a variety show that chooses a concubine for you be so powerful?" Li Yian expressed doubts.

after one day.

She slapped herself.

She discovered that she really knew nothing about power.
