Chapter 150 Fish and Bear’s Paw Although it was the beginning of autumn in Beijing in early August, it was far from being a pleasant and cool autumn weather. However, no matter how hot the weather is, it can't affect Xu Kun's good mood. Just yesterday, both Tianjian and Xianjian welcomed the finale of their first round of broadcasts - Tianjian episode 34 and Xianjian TV version episode 33. Putting aside the audiences born after the 90s, Tianjian won all the battles in this round of confrontation, winning both the ratings and reputation. According to the latest media reviews, the overall rating of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" has generally dropped below points, while "Heavenly Sword" has risen to around 8 points. In addition to the finale of Heavenly Sword which attracted widespread attention, the bed scene between Xiao Ting and Tang Ruoxuan also triggered a new round of craze - the image of him lying on his back on the bed with honey on his chest was even made into a poster by unscrupulous merchants, and it sold quite well. Of course, the popularity of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is also quite high. For example, the most popular post on the entire Internet last night was a strong request to modify the ending of "Legend of Sword and Fairy". The poster strongly suggested that the line "Do you understand?" that Li Xiaoyao said when he met the Sword Master in a daze and holding his daughter after his wife and confidante died should be changed to "Fuck you." Even though only four words were changed, it received praise from countless people. Many netizens said that if the change was made in this way, the Douban score would at least increase by ! The various ways of cursing used by gaming fans in the post are truly eye-opening.
Xu Kun even created a small account to post on the top of the thread. The one that received the most criticism was the bloody love triangle between Li Xiaoyao, Tang Yu Xiaobao, and Drunken Swordsman. A post commented: [Some of the TV series’ brainless fans actually have the nerve to say that the Heavenly Sword wins by its length and figure. I won’t mention the TV series’ marketing of Zhao Linger taking a bath. This Drunken Sword Immortal… Can Tangren no longer walk without the bloody love story? ! On the other hand, "Tian Jian" focuses on a career-oriented man from beginning to end. Even though it seems even sweeter than "Legend of Sword and Fairy" in the early stages, he is still decisive and ruthless after revealing his true colors. How can a woman be more important than the world?! This is what a real man should do! 】 Of course, this comment was also criticized by the drama fans: [How dare the game fans bark here? ! Do you dare to touch your conscience and say that you don’t like Zhao Linger in the game, you don’t like Lin Yueru in the game, you don’t like Anu in the game? ! It’s not that you don’t like polyamory, but you want to have three wives and four concubines to open a harem - bah, you are lowly! 】 "What are you thinking about?" At this moment, a small white hand suddenly passed in front of Xu Kun's eyes, and Xu Kun realized that he had arrived at the Capital International Airport. He hurriedly pushed open the passenger door and helped Jiang Yiyan lift the suitcase from the back seat - there was nothing in it, as Jiang Yiyan was mainly going to Hong Kong Island to purchase things. This time, Lu Yuyouyue invited three classmates: Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen and Jiang Yiyan. They are classmates and are going to participate in the same program, so normally they should go together. But Jiang Yiyan doesn't want to go with Liu Yifei; Zhu Yawen doesn't want to go with Jiang Yiyan, but wants to go with Liu Yifei; Liu Yifei wants to go with Jiang Yiyan and Zhu Yawen, but Liu Xiaoli doesn't want her daughter to go with Zhu Yawen. After some ineffective communication, the three finally decided to go their separate ways. Jiang Yiyan stood on tiptoe and kissed Xu Kun on the forehead, and said with a smile: "Brother Kun, is there anything you want? If not, I will buy it according to my own wishes." "whatever." Xu Kun had little interest in Hong Kong Island and didn't value luxury goods much. With that money, wouldn't it be nice to treat his brothers to a few more good meals? "Then I'll leave my car to you. Bye~" Jiang Yiyan waved her hand with high morale, pulled her suitcase and headed straight for the departure hall. It’s not that Xu Kun is unwilling to help carry the luggage, it’s mainly because he is too popular right now. If he is really surrounded by those aunts and sisters, Jiang Yiyan will have no chance of escaping. After getting in the driver's seat, Xu Kun started heading towards the city, but instead of returning to Beishatan, he went directly to Song Xunxuan's house. Aunt Song is also a straightforward person. Last time, she said that she would help introduce the crew after the TV series is broadcast, and she really took it to heart.
He parked the car in front of the door and ran into Song Xunxun's son Ying Rubin coming out with a basketball. "Yo~" Seeing Xu Kun getting out of the car, Ying Rubin gave him a thumbs up exaggeratedly and said, "Brother Kun, you have great taste for a big guy like you to drive a QQ!" “This is someone else’s car.” Xu Kun snatched the basketball in a bad mood and threw it towards the basketball court not far away: "Little brat, go chase your ball." Ying Rubin replaced his thumb with his middle finger, then hurriedly ran to the basketball court. Xu Kun walked up and rang the doorbell, and was then led in by the nanny. Song Xunxun was talking on the phone in the living room on the first floor. When she saw Xu Kun come in, she gestured to him to sit down, and chatted for another three or four minutes before hanging up. She had just finished filming "Home with Kids" not long ago. In fact, given the difficulty of performing in "Home with Kids" and the single scene, it wouldn't take that long, but the biggest problem for child actors is that they are not stable enough. After hanging up the phone, Song Xun said to Xu Kun: "Do you remember the first time we met?" "Of course I remember, at 03 . on the first day of the lunar calendar in 9." Xu Kun actually didn’t remember it that clearly, but he believed that Song Xun Xun must have remembered it more vaguely. "You young people still have good memories." Song Xun Xun continued: "At that time, I felt that the way your eyes changed was particularly suitable for acting in movies - there happened to be a movie recently, and I thought it should be suitable for you. The movie is called "Qinghong", it is the new work of director Wang Xiaoshuai, and it is also his own work. The female lead has been decided, and it will be played by Gao Yuanyuan. The male lead has not been decided yet. If you want to try it, I can help you contact them. " After listening to it, Xu Kun was a little excited. Needless to say, Wang Xiaoshuai's movie is definitely aiming for foreign awards. Now that Xu has both fame and popularity, all he needs is an award. Just when he was about to agree on the spot, Lv Liping suddenly called and said that there was a TV series in preparation that was very suitable for him. When Xu Kun heard that it was a TV series, he was more inclined towards "Qinghong". But Lv Liping then said that this is a drama with a male lead that tests one's acting skills, because the plot tells the legendary experience of Zhu Yuanzhang, who went from a beggar to an emperor and eventually died of old age. It is basically a semi-parody and semi-drama, somewhat similar to "The Young Emperor", but it is not a group drama, but a standard male-dominated drama. Because the focus of the play is basically on Zhu Yuanzhang, the crew now wants to find an actor with masculine appearance, excellent acting skills, and sufficient fame and popularity. Lv Liping felt that Xu Kun basically met the requirements, except that he was a little young. However, Xu Kun always exuded a maturity that young people did not have. She believed that as long as he put on the right makeup, he could perform the energy of the middle-aged Zhu Yuanzhang. Of course, the director may not agree, and he already has a goal. Fortunately, director Feng Xiaoning had collaborated with Lv Liping and Ge You on a children's science fiction film "The Disappearance of the Atmosphere" as early as 1990, and they have been friends for more than ten years. If the two of them work together to recommend Xu Kun to Director Feng, I believe Director Feng will definitely give Xu Kun a fair chance to compete. then…… Xu Kun can win by using tricks outside the game.
"What the hell?" Xu Kun was puzzled when he heard this: "I went to compete fairly with others, but I had to rely on tricks to win. Who did Director Feng choose?" "It's Mr. Hu who starred in Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils." uh~ This person is indeed quite suitable to play Zhu Yuanzhang. Whether in appearance, fame, or acting skills, he seems to be slightly better than Xu. The age difference is even more of a disadvantage for Xu Kun. "Then how do you think I can beat him?" "He is a Manchu. Do you think he is suitable to play Zhu Yuanzhang? As long as this news spreads, the crew will definitely give up Hu Jun to avoid the influence of public opinion." Tsk~ Although playing dirty tricks behind the scenes was a bit unfair, Xu Kun absolutely did not want a Manchu to play the role of Zhu Yuanzhang, who drove out the Tartars and restored China. "Okay then, I'll..." Halfway through his speech, Xu Kun suddenly remembered that there was a "Qinghong" waiting for him here. He covered the receiver, returned to Song Xinxin and asked awkwardly, "Aunt Song, can we take a look at the script first?" "I can't do that." Song Xinxin spread his hands and pointed out a clear path: "In the film industry, your Uncle Ge is more useful than anyone else!" Got~ It turns out that I have to go through Ge You's connections anyway. To put it bluntly, the entertainment industry is all about human relationships and exchange of interests. It cannot be said that there are no roles selected completely fairly and impartially, but they are definitely not the mainstream. What most TV drama creators need to do is to try to put together a makeshift team into something presentable. (End of this chapter)
