Chapter 25: Three Great Evil Spells in East Asia

Chapter 25: Three Great Evil Spells in East Asia
Five days after the release of All or Nothing.

The box office directly shocked all professional film critics.

In just five days, it went from being an unpopular film to becoming the biggest winner of the golden autumn season.

The box office of "The King" and "The Sky of Ideals", which were originally highly anticipated, fell sharply.

"The King" is still better, relying on the solid script, story background and cast, it is still barely holding on, but losses are inevitable.

The most unfortunate one is "Ideal Sky". The script of this movie was not deep enough. It was an art film that relied purely on traffic, and the box office was terrible.

Especially in terms of the actors' acting skills, compared with the acting skills of the actors in the movie "All or Nothing", those young handsome guys and fairies are simply a bunch of rubbish in acting.

Without a script and acting skills, of course it will flop. The box office of movies today is not what it was ten years ago. As long as stars appear in the movie, people will pay for it even if it's shit.

The current film market is maturing and the audience's tastes are becoming more and more sophisticated.

It can be said that script, director, actors, acting skills and publicity are all indispensable in the current film market.

On the seventh day, a piece of bombshell news shocked everyone in the film and television industry.

["All or Nothing" has surpassed 33 billion box office, becoming the rd film in Chinese film history to surpass billion! ]

Doudou rating: 8.9 points.

This result directly broke the weekly box office record of Chinese crime films.

Moreover, this result is only temporary. There are still two weeks before the film is taken off the theaters. According to the editor-in-chief of "Film News", with the influence of "All or Nothing", 2 billion is just the beginning, even if the number of moviegoers will gradually decrease in the next two weeks and the popularity will gradually fade.

But a box office of 3 billion is now a foregone conclusion.

The investors are naturally the happiest when the movie sells well at the box office.

At this time, Li Jie led Shen Ao and Ning Hao into the office with a smile on his face.

As soon as he sat down, he took out his long-treasured Wuyi Zhengyan tea to entertain the two heroes.

"Director Shen, Director Ning, you two have made great contributions to this box office success. If you two have any good scripts in the future, we at Taotao Ticket will definitely support you!"

Ning Hao said modestly: "Thank you, Mr. Li. I also look forward to working with you in the future."

Shen Ao watched Li Jie brew tea in a blue and white covered bowl and sighed, "The success of this box office is inseparable from the outstanding performances of the actors. The one who should be thanked the most is actually Teacher Shen!"

Ning Hao nodded and said, "Yes, in fact, since Mr. Shen joined the crew, we have doubted whether he can play the role of Lu Bingkun well. But he has shown us with his strength that a good actor can handle any role."

Li Jie sighed, "Yes, I have watched "All or Nothing" several times, but every time I watch Shen Lang's performance, I have a different experience."

"I felt terrified at first, but later I felt that beneath his disgusting appearance, he also had a heart that loved his children. This kind of multi-layered expression of the character is an example that many domestic actors should learn from."

When it comes to profession, Shen Ao and Ning Hao nodded repeatedly.

Ning Hao said: "That's right. Actors nowadays either make faces when acting, or recite their lines in 123, 1234567. What kind of acting is that?"

……

Half an hour later, Li Jie sent someone to take Shen Ao and Ning Hao to the booked hotel. Just as he was about to follow, he thought about it and took out his cell phone to make a call.

After the call was connected, Shen Lang's voice came from the other end: "Teacher Shen, this is Li Jie!"

"Li Jie?" Shen Lang frowned and thought for a moment before he said, "Oh, Mr. Li, what can I do for you?"

Li Jie was speechless for a while. Although his name was not so well-known in other places, if someone in the circle received his call, it would be impossible for them to be like Shen Lang, who was stunned for a long time before remembering his voice.

Good fellow, he didn't take me seriously at all. Li Jie smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher Shen, you have made a great contribution to the box office success of All or Nothing. We investors have decided to use part of the profits to reward you. The bonus is 500,000!"

Five hundred thousand real cash?
"Mr. Li, thank you for your hard work! I didn't expect that our investors would still think of us in their busy schedule. I won't say anything more. It is our mission and responsibility as filmmakers to make the investors' investment pay off! By the way, is it 500,000 yuan?"

Li Jie: "..."

After a moment, Li Jie adjusted his mood and said, "Teacher Shen, this is what happened. A TV series I invested in is looking for actors. I recommended you to him. Do you have time recently?"

"Oh. No!" Shen Lang refused straightforwardly.

Li Jie was anxious: "Teacher Shen, don't you want to hear the information about the characters in the script?"

"Do not listen!"

"..."

What a joke! My boss has already found me a role in In the Name of People. With this movie, what about other TV series? How can they invite me to star in them?
Qi Tongwei, the gigolo god on the playground, the pure love director of the villa, he can be humble enough to water the flowers and plow the fields, and he can be arrogant enough to use a sniper to attack people.

If you want to play a villain, you have to play a villain with personality.

Something else?

Ha ha!

Li Jie was speechless. This person changed his expression faster than turning the pages of a book. He was very happy when he heard about money, but when it came to other things, he had no interest in listening any further.

"Teacher Shen, you have personality, I admire you! So, I'll keep this role for you, please consider it!"

After all, Shen Lang is not a young man who has just entered society. Although he has made up his mind to do whatever he wants in this life, he still has basic social etiquette.

"Okay! Got it. Thank you, Mr. Li. Goodbye, Mr. Li!" He hung up the phone politely!
Li Jie: "..."

Just as Shen Lang hung up the phone, Lao Lu, who had been silent for several days, finally showed up.

"It's dark and Donkey is here. Congratulations to Donkey for completing his first work after traveling through time!"

"'All or Nothing' was a huge hit at the box office and has reached the minimum standard for receiving the filming completion award."

"In view of Donkey's outstanding performance in the movie, the system will issue a reward attribute. Host, please draw the work completion award!"

After listening to this, Shen Lang said happily: "Old Donkey, your system is quite authentic, and there is an unexpected surprise!"

After saying this, he suddenly thought of the gray attribute [Kato Kitagawa Finger] that day, and his face suddenly changed.

"I say, in the future, can you please automatically block those useless attributes that can only be used to beat egg drop soup? I can't use them!" Shen Lang was speechless.

Old Donkey: "Donkey treasure, when you were young you didn't know the value of fingering, when you are old you go to bed and cry for nothing!"

Shen Lang couldn't figure out what this mysterious system was talking about, so he just silently recited the word "lottery".

After a while, a bright light like an Apple computer flashed in circles in my mind, and when it finally stopped, the light shone on a silver attribute entry.

Shen Lang took a closer look.

[Three major sorcery techniques in East Asia: Disguise*1. ]

Old Donkey: "Congratulations to Donkey for obtaining an intermediate attribute entry, one of the three great evil arts of East Asia, Disguise! Disguise means changing one's appearance. With this skill, Donkey can perform the role of anyone from an eighty-year-old man to a fifteen-year-old boy!"

"This is good, this is good. With this, I can take on many roles that I never dared to think of before." Lao Lu finally did a good thing!
