Chapter 240: An Alternative Actress (5)
After deciding to ask Director Guo to shoot her new drama, Jing Lin called him and told him to wait for the release of "Love" and ask him to help direct the new film she was planning. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info She didn't beat around the bush, and directly told Director Guo that she wanted to win the Golden Phoenix Award for Best Actress with this film, and hoped that Director Guo would help her.
Director Guo naturally would not refuse her.
In his heart, this famous director has always had a dream of Xianxia. He didn't even see the script, so he agreed to Jing Lonely.
This refreshment makes Jing Lonely appreciate. She decided to quietly send some soul power to Director Guo during the filming, so that his illness could be slowly relieved and even healed, so that his body would be healthier and more energetic, and he would live a long life.
In fact, Jing Xiao didn't know that in the early years, before Director Guo became a famous director, he had filmed a Xianxia Thunder Drama with a first-class script, third-rate special effects, and poor actors' acting skills.
has not made a first-class high-quality Xianxia drama, which has always been Director Guo's regret.
Director Guo also had plans to remake Xianxia dramas before, but the budget he asked for was too high, and most of the Xianxia dramas in the market in recent years have hit the streets, and after investors have done market research, none of them support Director Guo to shoot Xianxia dramas.
Now Jing Lin called the resources of the Zeng family and said that he would ask him to make the best Xianxia drama in the market, which is really too tempting for Director Guo!
Out of his love and obsession with Xianxia dramas, as well as his trust in the Zeng family and Jing Lian, Director Guo didn't even need to read the script, so he agreed.
At this time, Director Guo, who was busy editing "Love", did not know that he would make the hottest and best Xianxia film in the history of the Chinese film and television industry, winning numerous awards. And the box office of that drama will be a miracle in the history of Chinese films, a peak that is insurmountable for latecomers!
Jing Lin got the director of the new drama, and he was in a very good mood, humming songs all the way, and took the second cute little brother to the Zeng family's old house to attend the dinner. She is ready to show her skills at the dinner tonight, and at the speed of getting Director Guo, she quickly gets a few elders in power in the Zeng family, so that they can unconditionally support her development in the entertainment industry.
At the same time, she has a good relationship with the new generation of young talents of the Zeng family, because maybe one day, she will use them.
The Xianxia drama she is preparing still lacks a top producer and a group of actors with good acting skills and good looks.
Jing Lin decided to take advantage of the dinner party to use her soul power to pour a soul soup into an aunt and cousin of her generation, so that this aunt and cousin could press the rear for her and coordinate the whole movie.
This aunt's cousin's name is Zhong Meng, and her English name is Aisha. She is the one who introduced Jing Lin to Linda and Zhou Na. He is a well-known producer in his own right.
Jing Lin chose her because her father's Zhong family, which has the best production company in China, and has more than 600 comprehensive theaters integrating leisure, entertainment and shopping.
Zhong Meng herself is also well-known in the circle for her vision, ability, status, and reputation as turning stone into gold. She is very good at marketing and public relations, and the quality of the films she has made is basically passable, and there are almost no ones that are not popular.
"Sister Meng, you are really radiant tonight, I have never seen anyone who can wear a little black dress with your charm and temperament. With your jewel in front of me, I won't dare to wear a black dress in the future. ”
Under the stunned gaze of the transparent ghost Jiang Sheng and his younger brother Zeng Kehao, Jing Lin picked up a glass of champagne, walked to Zhong Meng with a smile, and patted his ass when he opened his mouth, with an affectionate attitude that would not make people feel overly attentive and disgusted.
Zhong Meng was a little surprised, when did this stuffy gourd cousin become so sweet-talking?
"Remember, you've changed so much that I almost didn't recognize you. Zhong Meng reached out and touched the cup with Jing Lian.
Wearing a lake-blue off-the-shoulder flowing long dress, she looked particularly dusty and beautiful, and pushed her little brother away, pointing to a small pavilion in the garden outside, "Sister Meng, I have something to discuss with you, and it hasn't been officially held yet, let's go to the pavilion and sit?"
"What do you want to talk to me about?" Zhong Meng was curious.
Jing Lin didn't waste time, she injected her soul power into her voice, and said her request to ask Zhong Meng to make and promote her new film together. She hinted at Zhong Meng with her soul power, making her feel that the new drama she was brewing would definitely be a hit, and it was a good film that should not be missed.
After Zhong Meng heard this, she readily agreed.
After winning over Zhong Meng, Jing Lin did the same, and received unconditional support from several other elders in charge of the Zeng family, including her father and grandfather.
After doing all this, she used her soul power excessively, felt very tired, and did not have the extra energy to communicate with the young talents who came to Zeng's family to celebrate her birthday, and asked Zeng's younger brother, who had long wanted to sneak home to play games, to help her leave.
After witnessing Jing Lian's persuasive ability that was more powerful than the top people engaged in pyramid marketing, Jiang Sheng became more and more admired and loyal to her.
In the next two months of waiting for the script, Jing Lin took Zeng Kehao to the imperial capital to appear in two variety shows, a reality show, and a local advertisement in Huaishui, except for Linda's arrangement, and spent the rest of the time in the Jiang family's villa, learning from the former actor Jiang Sheng how to control the camera, how to better enter and play the play, etc.
Two months flew by.
Jing Lone's first work "Infatuation" was released strongly on Valentine's Day.
Due to Zhou Na's successful word-of-mouth publicity and hunger marketing, the audience's interest in this drama was aroused. In addition, Jing Meng said that Zhong Meng called more than 600 movie theaters of the Zhong family, and at 7 o'clock in the evening on the day of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the national unified screening of "Lost Love" made the premiere of "Lost Love" very successful.
On the day of Qixi Festival, it completely crushed other romance films released on the same day, and received more than 10 million box office, as well as unanimous praise from audiences and film critics.
After Zhou Na and Director Guo received the box office statistics, they were no different from Fan Jin in the middle of the lift, crying, laughing, and screaming, and they were all happy and crazy.
What made them even happier was that in the following week, the daily box office figures of "Love" rose steadily until the eighth day, and it began to slowly decline. A month later, "Love" was removed from the theater, with a cumulative box office of 313.22 million!
This is simply a miracle in the history of niche literary and artistic films! And the production cost of "Lost Love" is only more than 10 million! Director Guo and Zhou Na have made a lot of money. Jing Lin also made a small profit.
The success of "Infatuation" not only raised Jing Lian's status in the entertainment industry, but also increased her national popularity.
Now Jing has more than 8 million fans on Weibo. The real-name registered fans on the official website of her economic company also exceed 500,000. This means that Jing Lian's popularity is already comparable to that of second-tier film and television stars in China.
……
Jing Lin got the script, so he had a private meeting with Director Guo and Zhong Meng, and after consultation, the three decided to take advantage of the current popularity of "Love" to start publicizing that Director Guo and Jing Lin were about to join forces again, and bring the star photography and production team to create the best Xianxia drama in history.
Zeng Kehao's live broadcast was banned by Jing Lonely for a period of time, and now he is obsessed with a popular Xianxia online game on the Internet. When he heard that Jing Lin was going to make the best Xianxia drama, he was very moved. One day, taking advantage of the silence of the scene, she peeked at the script she bought out, and instantly became a brain-dead fan of the show.
He was very interested in the male number three in the script, a cool and powerful sword cultivator. did not hesitate to resort to the means of crying, making trouble and selling cuteness, even if Jing Lin called and grinned in pain, he would not give up. even sacrificed a nirvana - hunger strike, forcing his great-father and great-mother to relent, and took the initiative to talk to Jing Lian, asking her to play a role for her younger brother****** as a last resort, Jing Lin finally agreed to let him play the third male.
The reason why Jing Lin agreed to Zeng Kehao to play the third male is because the third male is a "male vase" role that does not require much acting skills, and the actor who plays this role only needs to: first, be tall and good-looking, and second, be flexible.
Zeng Kehao has both of these points.
Therefore, Jing Lin and Zeng Kehao took the initiative to ensure that they would not complain about being tired and not give up halfway during filming, so they nodded and agreed to his joining.
After Zhong Xiaodi joined the crew of "Xianya", Zhong Meng arranged for him and Jing Lin to appear on several popular variety shows in China, playing the slogan "The queen's sister and brother are back in the rivers and lakes, and the second cute brother will be ravaged again in the new drama "Xianya", which caused many fans to discuss "Xianya" in various forums and post bars on the Internet, making "Xianya" popular before filming.
On Weibo, #QueenSisterBrother# and #Xianya# have become the first and second hot topics, and under the operation of Zhong Meng and the team behind her, these two hot topics have been ranked in the top five hot topics on Weibo for a whole week, and are well known to the majority of Chinese people.
Then, Zhong Meng used the method of hunger marketing to block most of the news about "Xianya" when the people were discussing "Xianya".
Half a month later, when "Xianya" officially entered filming, Zhong Meng asked people to release some beautiful stills regularly to lick the screen for fans of Xianxia drama and Jing Lone, and she also released a lot of news about props, costumes and shooting interesting stories, so that the people looked forward to "Xianya" even more.
Jing Lin and Director Guo worked together again, both of them had high hopes for "Xianya", and they always pursued perfection during filming, tossing the crew and actors every day to life, desire and death, and being scolded and criticized, which has almost become a compulsory course for everyone every day.
If it weren't for the very generous salary given by Jing Lian, the three meals served every day were exceptionally delicious, and the liquidated damages were set too high, everyone would want to quit.
What surprised Jing Lonely was that her younger brother, who had been pampered since he was a child, never complained of bitterness from beginning to end, he was very devoted every day, and he was enthusiastic about filming, and he often asked Director Guo and other actors in the crew for advice, and asked people to teach him the secrets of acting and guide him to his acting skills with a shy face.
Although the role he played, he didn't need acting skills at all, as long as he could pretend to be cool and be flexible enough.
Because in the screenwriter's setting, this male third sword cultivator has only one expression from beginning to end, that is, his face is expressionless, and from beginning to end, he will only do one thing, that is, draw his sword and fight. Well, this is a cool handsome male fairy who draws his sword without saying a word.
Today happened to shoot the first scene where Jian Xiu and the heroine played by Jing Lin met, because Jian Xiu and the heroine didn't know each other, so Jing Lin and Zeng Kehao wanted to have a big fight.
Director Guo was very worried, because he encountered the biggest problem since filming: Zeng's younger brother, who is usually not afraid of heaven and earth, was beaten up in the play because he had to play against his sister, he occasionally had a phobia before the play, locked himself in the dressing room, and didn't come out at all, and no one called him to ignore him.
The main reason is that Jing Lin was too impressed by the fruit knife he flew at the beginning, he was afraid that Jing Lin was afraid to the bones, as long as he thought of acting in a fight with his sister (everyone with IQ knows that it was a fight scene, but in fact he was beaten unilaterally), Zeng Kehao trembled.
Jing Lin finished dressing up, holding a fake sword with silver light, came out of the simple dressing room, heard that his younger brother had stopped playing, raised his eyebrows, and without waiting for Director Guo and Zhong Meng to speak, he raised his sword and went to the locker room with a fierce momentum.
Zhong Meng's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly asked the three assistant directors to turn on the camera and follow all the way. She plans to record the scene of Jing Lin cleaning up Zeng's younger brother and upload it to the Internet, on the one hand, to ignite the enthusiasm and support of netizens for the "Queen Sister and Brother", and to promote "Xianya", on the other hand, Zhong Meng wants to make Zeng Xiaodi lose face and lose face all over the Internet again.
Because she was outside the locker room before, her saliva was dry, her throat was painful, and her younger brother Zeng didn't bird her, and stubbornly played the ostrich. This made Zhong Meng, the black-bellied royal sister, very angry.
Zeng Kehao later knew that because of his willfulness, he called him a "cute and soft brother" in the mouth of netizens, and he was ridiculed by a group of buddies when he went back to school to study, and the elders at family gatherings loved to pull him to nag and pull his face or something, because he was "soft and cute, obedient and sensible".
There is no doubt that Zeng Kehao asked Jing Lin to clean up (scare) again, and finally cried pitifully, with tears in the corners of his eyes, and ran to the crew to apologize, saying that it was all his fault and delayed the filming progress of the crew, please forgive him.
Director Guo is old and soft-hearted, seeing that Zeng Xiaodi is soft and cute, cute and polite, he forgave him instantly.
Everyone else in the crew worked on the salary of the Zeng family, how dare they really be angry with this Zeng Xiaogongzi, and Zeng Kehao didn't do anything unbearable.
A handsome, cute and well-behaved young man, he can be forgiven for making mistakes.
After everyone forgave him, Jing Xiao watched Zhong Meng and the three assistant directors finish the video, and went down to make it with a smile, so he called Zeng Kehao to his side, gave him a loving "forehead", and praised him: "Well done." That's good. ”
Zeng Kehao's dog eyes were confused and looked at Jing Jinglone, as if asking "why".
Jing Lin gave him a mysterious smile back. Recently, Zhong Meng was worried that there was no good material to sell to the outside media to stimulate the enthusiasm of the people, and the empathetic Zeng Xiaodi played such a play. It's so sweet.
Jing Xiao felt that he should be kind to him, and then give him an extra chicken leg every day.
The follow-up filming went quite smoothly, and the group ran in scenic spots across the country for more than half a year, and finally completed the filming of "Xianya".
Director Guo returned to the imperial capital, locked himself in a small black room, did not eat or drink for a day, and cut out the trailer first.
Zhong Meng found a well-known composer in the industry to specially match the two-minute and twenty-second trailer with music that is both ethereal and beautiful, and simple atmosphere, and then the art team gave ink subtitles.
On March 12 of the following year, the trailer of "Xianya" entered major video websites on the Internet, causing a wave of discussion.
Many netizens, especially Xianxia fans, said that the trailer is beautiful and crying, the heroine is crying, the music is good and the ears are pregnant, and the plot is good, good, and attractive!
Everyone is kneeling and begging the official to release the film soon, even if they sell their kidneys, they have to watch it!
