Chapter 151: Big Media is Rigid and Old-Fashioned
On the TV screen, an old man in his 70s or 80s, with an excited expression, pointed to the sky and the ground and said: "What does he know? He has only played a few scoundrels! He also mocked me for only being able to make erotic films. People like him can't even play supporting roles in my erotic films!"
"He thinks that just because he played a few scoundrels, he has the guts to speak out in the media and lecture me on the spiritual core of a movie? Does he deserve it?"
"I've lost my dignity if I argue with him, but I'm going to say that this movie may be popular for a while because of its hype, but in the end, it can't be compared with my Dragon Inn!"
"Also, this actor is really good at playing villains, but he should not try to act in martial arts movies. Martial arts movies require professional stuntmen to film them well..."
……
Seeing this, Yuan Xiaoyuan was surprised and asked, "Who is this old man? Why is he targeting Brother Shen? His words are so rude!"
Shen Ze smiled coldly: "Well, I'll tell you, I'm not the only one in the world who can't stand Shen Lang. Let me tell you, this man is called Lu Yun, he's the general producer of Shaw Films, a big shot in the Hong Kong circle! If you offend him, Shen Lang will suffer in the future!"
Yuan Xiaoyuan was anxious: "Why does this person scold Brother Shen?"
Shen Ze carefully placed his newly bought iPhone 15 on the table and pointed at the screen and said, "Here, take a look for yourself! Call him Shen Lang, who is rude."
After Yuan Xiaoyuan carefully read the interview with Shen Lang in the Imperial Capital Newspaper, she raised her head and frowned, "I think what Brother Shen said is very good! It's originally a leisure and entertainment thing for everyone, why should we put it into rules and regulations?"
"Also, what right does he have to say that only professional stuntmen can shoot martial arts films?"
"Neither Zhang Manman nor Liang Jiahui are martial artists, so why didn't this Lu mention them? Why did he specifically target Brother Shen?"
"Besides, if only a bunch of martial arts actors were to make martial arts films, then martial arts films would really have no future."
"Incestuous marriage and industry monopoly will ultimately lead to a lack of ambition and forever living off the past. Sooner or later, they will be eliminated by the times!"
"Good! Well said, girl!"
Yuan Xiaoyuan's face flushed with excitement as she turned to follow the voice. She found the fat middle-aged man at the cashier's counter giving her a thumbs up and saying, "What you said is very good, little girl! Those old martial arts stories are getting less and less interesting! They're like operas, and they've long been out of date!"
"Uncle, did you also go to see "New Dragon Inn"?"
"Yeah! I went there last night with my wife and kids. It was great!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xiaoyuan gave a thumbs up and turned to look at Shen Ze proudly.
Shen Ze muttered quietly: "Look at your store carefully, how much money do you make in a month? And you still watch movies!"
The voice was so soft that the fat boss couldn't hear it, but from Shen Ze's expression he knew that the kid didn't hold his fart well.
"Girl, you have to be selective when choosing a partner. If there's a guy who only treats you to spicy noodles during Chinese New Year, stay away from him!"
"Who are you talking about?" Shen Ze stood up and scolded the boss.
Hearing this, the boss slowly stood up.
He was 1.80 meters tall, weighed about 200 pounds, and had a full beard...
"I'm talking about you, kid!"
"Please be more respectful!" Shen Ze sat back!
Seeing this, Yuan Xiaoyuan glanced at Shen Ze with disdain. She walked straight to the cashier counter and smiled at the boss: "Uncle, Happy New Year! 88!"
The boss who had a fierce look on his face just now suddenly smiled like a flower: "Happy New Year, little girl!"
……
A group of elderly moviegoers finally returned home at noon.
At this time, the table was already filled with a large table of delicious dishes.
"San'er, you did all this?" The aunt said in surprise, holding Wu Mei's hand.
Shen Lang wiped his hands with his apron and said with a smile: "And second brother, by the way, Zhuangzhuang also helped pick vegetables!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Zhuangzhuang immediately took out a small spinach and shook it in front of everyone to show off!
"Okay, okay, Zhuangzhuang is able to help, that's great!" The aunt praised the three of them.
During the meal, Uncle Shen Hao said, "Shen Lang, we've seen the movie. It's very exciting, especially the makeup and the progressive portrayal of the character Jin Xiangyu in the script. It's really the best movie I've seen in these years!"
Shen Nan smiled and said, “Dad, you haven’t told me about San’er’s performance in the movie yet!”
Shen Hao never praised people easily, but today he said to Shen Lang in front of everyone: "The character of Cao Shaoqin is limited by the script itself and cannot be as three-dimensional as the character of Zhou Chaoxian!"
“But what surprised me was that every action you took in the movie fulfilled the director’s intention very well!”
"Especially your fighting moves, they are so clean and neat that people who don't know you would think you have martial arts skills!"
At this time, even Shen Lang's uncle Shen Qi agreed: "That's right, San'er's eyes in the movie really made me unable to tell that this was my nephew!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his calf under the table was kicked by Shen Ze's mother.
Shen Ze also complained: "Uncle, Dad, you can't just say good things about Shen Lang because he is your nephew. Don't you see what Lu Yun from the Hong Kong circle said!"
Uncle Shen Hao put down his chopsticks and asked in astonishment: "What's wrong? What happened?"
Shen Ze said: "Lu Yun blasted Xu Ke, but Shen Lang accepted the interview and took the blame for Xu Ke. Haha, the point is, Xu Ke may not be grateful to him!"
Shen Nan glared at Shen Ze, then turned to Shen Hao and said, "Dad, don't listen to Shen Ze's nonsense. I think what Shen Lang said in the interview is very right. That Lu Yun is purely..."
Before he finished speaking, Shen Hao put down his chopsticks and said, "Show me what Lu Yun said!"
Shen Nan quickly took out a laptop and reading glasses and handed them to Shen Hao.
Shen Hao put on his glasses and looked for a full ten minutes.
Finally, after reading it, he took off his glasses and said, "This is pure nonsense!"
"I'm talking about that Lu Yun!"
"'New Dragon Inn' is the movie that has the most patriotic and traditional Chinese martial arts spirit that I have ever seen!"
"No, I also want to write an article and express my views!"
Shen Lang: "…………, Uncle, we haven't finished our meal yet!"
But Shen Hao didn't care about that. He picked up the bowl, took a few bites, then picked up his son's laptop and went upstairs!
The aunt smiled bitterly and said, "Your uncle is like this. When it comes to movies, he can skip meals and ignore his family!"
In the afternoon, Uncle Shen Hao came down from upstairs. Everyone looked at him and saw that he looked tired, but very excited.
"I wrote a short article to refute that so-called Hong Kong circle boss!"
"He said that others don't understand movies, but I think he is the one who really doesn't understand movies!"
Shen Lang asked curiously, "Uncle, has your article been posted on Weibo?"
"No!"
"That is……"
"I have made an appointment with the reporter from CCTV's online platform and will go to record the program immediately!"
"hiss……"
"What are you hissing about? It's just an online station, not CCTV-6. The director said that all the Spring Festival programs are pre-recorded and scheduled. It's too troublesome to insert a program in. These big media are rigid and old-fashioned and can't keep up with current affairs..."
Everyone: "………………"
