Chapter 792: Supporting [Second Update]
In a cold drink shop in Shilin Night Market, Su Youpeng, Chen Zhipeng, Xu Ruoxuan, and Jia Jingwen sat opposite each other.
"What should I do, I said before that everyone can make a sequel together, looking at the current situation, it is a question whether the TV series can continue to be broadcast......" Su Youpeng supported his chin with his hand and half lay on the table.
"Now you don't say such frustrating things, okay?" Chen Zhipeng put down the milk ice in his hand and said dissatisfied.
"It's not that I'm going to say something depressing, but that's the way it is, there are a lot of articles in the newspaper that criticize this TV series, and I think the sequel will definitely not be filmed." Su Youpeng retorted weakly.
Jia Jingwen couldn't listen to it anymore, and said, "Okay, you two don't quarrel." ”
Xu Ruoxuan also nodded, "Yes, arguing like this doesn't help solve the problem." ”
"In fact, there is nothing we can do about this kind of thing, and no matter how much we negotiate, there will be no result." Su Youpeng said in frustration.
Chen Zhipeng, Xu Ruoxuan, and Jia Jingwen did not speak, although they were very reluctant to admit Su Youpeng's words, they had no way to deny it.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, Jia Jingwen began to change the topic.
"By the way, what about Wu Qilong and Jin Chengwu? Didn't make an appointment to meet at 4 o'clock, why haven't you seen the two of them come over yet? ”
Su Youpeng shook his head, "Jin Chengwu doesn't know very well, Wu Qilong seems to have been called by the company." ”
"These two guys, how can they be like this, they don't have any sense of time, so they won't be called the two of them at the next party." Jia Jingwen said angrily.
Su Youpeng immediately agreed: "Yes, yes, especially Jin Chengwu, I was afraid of getting up last time." He's not a fan of being late! ”
"You don't know that Lu Dao is speaking ill of others behind his back. Do you get sores on your tongue? A voice suddenly came from behind. Scared Su Youpeng.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Jin Chengwu and Wu Qilong walking in from the door together, Su Youpeng subconsciously covered his mouth, and secretly wondered in his heart: How to say Cao Cao Cao Cao is here, it seems that next time I really can't say bad things behind others' backs.
Wu Qilong and Jin Chengwu found seats to sit down, Jin Chengwu glanced at Su Youpeng, "Hey, did you say I like to be late just now?" ”
Su Youpeng suddenly took his hand away from his mouth. Then he replied confidently, "Well, I just mean you, who made you late today?" ”
"I've been late for today, and it's because the company has something, unlike someone, who is often lazy and late, and doesn't let others say it!" Kim Sung-woo retorted-for-tat.
"Please, can you two not be like this, they will quarrel as soon as they meet!" Jia Jingwen stood up and stopped.
Jin Chengwu and Su Youpeng glared at each other, and then turned their heads away together.
"How. Have you guys come up with any solutions? Wu Qilong put the motorcycle helmet aside and asked about the things to be discussed at this meeting.
Jia Jingwen, Xu Ruoxuan and Chen Zhipeng shook their heads together.
Wu Qilong was about to speak. At this time, a piece of news suddenly aired on the TV of the ice drink shop.
Before the broadcast, the highly anticipated TV series "Meteor Garden" was cold, and many viewers expressed doubts about the values that the show intended to convey to young people, and various unfavorable factors not only affected several leading actors of the show, but also rumored that the producer had cut the filming plan of the sequel to "Meteor Garden" in half, TVBS and Lianyi Production Company were unwilling to respond to this matter, but Mr. Lin Youlun, the main investor of the show, recently supported "Meteor Garden" in a recent interview with the media in Hong Kong, and also hinted that the sequel filming was not affectedThe following is a detailed report sent back by our reporter from Hong Kong. ”
As soon as the host's voice fell, the TV screen shifted to the scene of Lin Youlun's interview with the media.
Lin Youlun was surrounded by a large group of reporters, and the camera lens was also squeezed around by the crowd, and the four bodyguards tried to push the reporters away, but there were still many microphones and recorders stretched out in front of Lin Youlun.
"May I ask Mr. Lin, what do you think about the upset and low ratings of "Meteor Garden" broadcast in Taiwan?"
Judging from the picture, Lin Youlun did not intend to answer the reporter's question at first, and he stopped after hearing this question.
Only then was the camera lens straightened, and Lin Youlun began to respond to the question.
"After learning the news of the poor ratings of "Meteor Garden", my first reaction was actually to breathe a sigh of relief, because whether it is a comic book adaptation of a TV series, or a new TV series theme such as an idol drama, "Meteor Garden" should be regarded as the first person to eat crabs, filming this TV series itself is an attempt, it may succeed, of course, it may fail, and "Meteor Garden" cannot be said to be a failure, it can only be said that its results did not meet everyone's expectations, in my opinion, this is acceptable."
Lin Youlun paused for a moment and continued: "I have always felt that as long as I invest in the film and television works, I will definitely succeed, I know that this is everyone's trust and affirmation of me, but at the same time, it also gives me a lot of pressure. When I make some film investments, the risk of doing bad is very high, and I will explain to my collaborators, but they basically don't listen, and even wonder if I don't want to take them to play, and now there is finally a film and television drama that I invested in that is not very good, which should be good news for me, because this incident tells everyone that Lin Youlun will also fail, and it will be more rational to cooperate with me in the future. ”
"What do you think Mr. Lin has made in this TV series?" A reporter asked.
"There is no problem with this TV series itself, whether it is the producer, director or several actors, they have all met my requirements, very OK, the main reason for the low ratings may be that this TV series is too advanced, I am too anxious to make some changes, and put some new TV series shooting ideas into it, which has caused the audience to be uncomfortable. Here I have to review myself first, because this is not the first time that such a situation has occurred, this problem occurred when I was filming "Journey to the West", was that movie not good? Judging from the feedback at the time, the audience was indeed not very acceptable, and the combined box office of the two was only more than 50 million, but looking back now, I said that movie is Zhou Xingchi's best movie, and no one should object, because everyone is used to Zhou Xingchi's nonsensical comedy style, and there will be many different feelings when you watch "Journey to the West" again. "Journey to the West" didn't teach me enough lessons at the time, because this movie is now popular on Taiwanese campuses, and the box office of the movie there is higher than that of Hong Kong, and later it drove the box office in Hong Kong. ”
Lin Youlun said a lot in one breath, and there were no reporters to interrupt during the period.
"I believe that if this TV is broadcast in 5 or 6 years, it should become a very popular TV series, although I will never regret making this TV series...... Because some changes always have to be tried, even if there are some failures and lessons, I think it is worth it. ”
"There are a lot of criticisms of this TV series in the Taiwanese media now, what does Mr. Lin think about this?"
The third reporter's question is still related to "Meteor Garden", although it has been said a lot before, but Lin Youlun did not show impatience with it.
"The encounter of "Meteor Garden" in Taiwan reminds me of the story told in the preface of Fang Long's "Tolerance", society needs tolerance to progress, and the same is true for TV dramas, on the one hand, everyone is actually tired of some current TV series, but on the other hand, everyone can't accept new changes, the innovation and development of TV dramas is just an empty talk, or new things will be hindered a lot at the beginning, I can only express regret for some views of the Taiwan media, But it won't have any impact on me or the show. ”
"The popularity of the Little Tigers and Kim Sung-mu has been declining recently, does Mr. Lin think this has anything to do with "Meteor Garden"?"
The question is a bit acute, but Lin Youlun did not shy away from it.
"It should be related, but I also said just now, everyone should look at this TV series with a longer-term perspective, and now the popularity of several leading actors has declined because of this TV series, but maybe in the future they will gain more popularity because they have starred in this TV series, so whether this TV series has a good or bad impact on them, I think it's still time to draw conclusions."
"Will there be a sequel to this TV series?"
Lin Youlun replied very directly: "Yes, but definitely not now." ”
In the ice drink shop, Jin Chengwu, Xu Ruoxuan, Jia Jingwen and the Little Tigers were all relieved when they heard this, and Lin Youlun's support for "Meteor Garden" in the previous interview gave them a lot of encouragement.
Jia Jingwen happily clasped her hands together, "Now it's okay, everyone doesn't have to worry about the sequel to the TV series." ”
"Mr. Lin just said that he would shoot, but he didn't say that he would shoot next." Su Youpeng said with regret.
"Continue filming, do you still think that this TV series is not controversial enough now?" Jin Chengwu said sarcastically.
"I knew that you regretted filming this drama, didn't you? I don't want to shoot you, so I said it. Su Youpeng shot back angrily.
"What do you say? Did I say I regretted not shooting? Jin Chengwu got up from his seat angrily, and Wu Qilong patted him on the shoulder, which persuaded him to sit down again.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Qilong announced a news to everyone: "Today, the company came to me and said that Hong Kong was looking for me to make a movie, which was also adapted from comics, and I played the second male lead." ”
"Really?"
"Great!"
"Congratulations!"
Xu Ruoxuan, Jia Jingwen, and Chen Zhipeng congratulated Wu Qilong one after another, but Jin Chengwu sat there alone and did not speak. (To be continued......)
