Chapter 136 I wish there were fewer leeks in the world

The next day, Lin Yicheng felt weak in the legs when he left Fan Xiaopang's house.

Being a director is a really physical job, and guiding actresses in their acting skills is even more physically demanding.

Especially when encountering an actress who is particularly passionate about learning and very eager to make progress, it is a difficult test for the director's abilities in all aspects.

We can't relax just because we are young. As the old saying goes, when you are young you don't know the value of anything, and when you are old you will only shed tears for nothing.

Lin Yicheng feels that his career as a director will be very long. In this regard, he admires and envies Zhang Yimou.

I hope that when I am in my seventies, I can continue to make more outstanding and profound contributions to the film and television industry.

Lin Yicheng was thinking about whether he should ask someone to get some tiger bones or something to make some wine so that he could drink it and replenish his body.

However, things are different now than before. This thing is not easy to get. Should I ask my godfather later to see if he has any relevant connections?

No!

Lin Yicheng quickly dismissed this dangerous idea.

Asking my godfather for this thing, isn't that just an act of concealing one's own guilt?

By then, let alone tiger bones, I'm afraid my godfather will tear his bones apart!

……

I came to the company today mainly to deal with the play "Crazy Nightclub".

Let’s talk about the sponsorship first. I learned that it was written and produced by Lin Yicheng, and it is a sister film of the authentic "Crazy Stone".

All the sponsors were extremely interested, and Wahaha and Nokia were the first to be finalized.

Wahaha took out all of their products, stuffed them all in one go, and gave 400 million in sponsorship fees. It was really generous!
They also said that the food and drinks provided to the crew can be eaten and drunk as much as they want, and if there is not enough, more will be given.

In comparison, Nokia is a bit lackluster.

They took out five mobile phones, three sliders and two candy-bars.

The sponsorship fee is only half of Wahaha's, only 200 million.

More than a dozen well-known brands such as Master Kong, Golden Dragon Fish, Wanchai Ferry, Mengniu, and Daliyuan also flocked to the market.

These sponsorship fees vary, but add up to a total of 700 million.

……

In particular, a certain domestic milk powder company wanted to pay 100 million in sponsorship fees to appear in the movie.

They wanted to sponsor "Naked Marriage" last time, and they are here again this time, and they are persistent.

However, this time, Lin Yicheng directly rejected it.

Lin Yicheng doesn't want to make this kind of money, nor does he dare to make it.

Lin Yicheng still remembers an incident from his previous life.

Because it is a big brand and a well-known trademark, and it advertises every day, one of his colleagues trusts this brand very much, and his children at home have been drinking milk powder of this brand.

After the news about the toxic milk powder came out, Lin Yicheng felt the murderous intent from that colleague for the first time.

My colleague's eyes are red every day, which is a kind of despair of wanting to kill someone but being unable to do so.

"I really want to strap bombs on my body and die together with those bastards!"

These are the exact words of my colleague.

This is the despair of a father.

……

Just as sponsorship fees, Galaxy Film and Television Company received 1300 million. The money was made before the filming even started.

This is the influence of Galaxy Film and Television Company, and this is the trust that the brand has in Lin Yicheng.

This influence and trust are accumulated by Lin Yicheng and Xinghe Film and Television Company through one work after another, and are also certified by the excellent market performance of the endorsed products.

I have to say that Ning Hao is really capable. He persuaded Yang Qing to join the crew as an uncredited assistant director.

Lin Yicheng, Zhou Chenggong, Yang Qing, and Ning Hao were in Lin Yicheng's office, discussing the cast.

There was no open audition for "Crazy Nightclub", and the cast list was decided by just four of them.

Tang Xiaolian, the heroine, Lin Yicheng directly decided on senior student Yao Di, and did not consider sister-in-law Lu at all, letting her go wherever she wanted.

It is impossible to keep things fair. During this period of time, Lin Yicheng has been running to Fan Xiaopang, and inevitably neglected senior Yao Di.

This play is just the right way for her to soothe her slightly wounded heart.

Well, I'll go find senior Yao Di tonight and tell her the news, and by the way, see if her acting skills have improved.

Lin Yicheng made up his mind.

……

Little Steel Teeth, Li Junwei, was given to Luo Jin.

After his debut in "Hello, Old Time", Luo Jin's career has been lukewarm. He mostly played supporting roles in some film and television dramas and has never played a leading role. He is like a nobody.

Compared with Zhu Yawen, who started at the same starting line with him, Luo Jin is far behind.

There are a lot of male actors in the circle who are not good-looking, their acting skills are not outstanding, and they don’t have any unique characteristics.

The role of Li Junwei can be played by almost anyone, Luo Jin is also suitable, and Lin Yicheng is willing to give him a chance to take the leading role and see if he can develop.

If he can become famous with this movie, Star Culture will naturally increase its resources for him. Otherwise, there is no need to worry too much, because Star Culture has many artists and limited resources, so it is impossible to continue to invest too much in him.

The world is so realistic and cruel.

Without resources and opportunities, a large number of people are eliminated.

They have resources and opportunities but have not become famous, so this is another group of people that will be eliminated.

There seem to be a lot of actors who can be remembered, recognized and named by the audience, but in fact they are all at the top of the pyramid.

Looking down, there are losers everywhere who cannot be named.

How many professional actors graduate from major colleges, art troupes, and performing arts organizations every year?
How many crossover actors have squeezed in from the crosstalk, sketch, dance and singing circles?
How many amateurs and extras are there in the groups of people who drift to Beijing, Shanghai and Hengshan?
There are simply too many to count!

It is no exaggeration to say that those who can stand out and succeed are one in a million.

……

The role of the robber was played by Zhang Jiayi, Lin Yicheng's fellow Chang'an native and senior at Beijing Film Academy.

The tires have not changed, and the original actors are used, who also graduated from Beijing Film Academy.

Zhu Liao, or Zhao Yingjun, he was also responsible for the movie's interludes.

Zhao Yingjun is a true musical talent. He has composed many songs in famous movies.

The local police officer, or crosstalk artist Li Weijian, his pair of funny but bright eyes are so funny when he squints them.

The boss lady is Yang Qing, known as "the ugliest actress in Beijing Film Academy". But she has really good acting skills and is willing to play ugly roles to set off others, there is nothing to complain about this.

This crew is basically dominated by people from Beijing Film Academy.

The discussion of these main roles went smoothly, but when it came to the most crucial male lead, the focus of the play, He Sanshui, the four people had disagreements.

Yang Qing and Ning Hao both wanted to find Xu Guangtou, but Lin Yicheng disagreed, so Zhou Chenggong naturally stood on the boss's side.

Lin Yicheng is the investor of this drama and has the greatest say, so Yang Qing and Ning Hao dare not confront him forcefully and can only persuade him earnestly.

The last time Lin Yicheng asked Xu Guangtou to act in "Crazy Stone", he regretted it afterwards, so they did not cooperate again.

But looking at Yang Qing and Ning Hao who were still talking to him, Lin Yicheng hesitated for a moment.

"Director Lin, even if you object, you have to give a reason, right? The death row prisoner must have a crime!" Ning Hao said.

"That's right. If you think he is not suitable, then you can name a suitable person." Yang Qing continued.

"..." Lin Yicheng was stuck.

After thinking about it again and again, I really can't think of a better candidate.

Why did Xu Guangtou rise to prominence?

Putting aside his character, he really has acting skills and real strength, and is irreplaceable to a certain extent. It is almost impossible to find another person like him in the circle.

"Okay, then let's choose him." After hesitating for a while, Lin Yicheng compromised.

As a qualified businessman, you cannot be swayed by personal emotions and must consider the pros and cons.

If someone else plays the role in "Crazy Nightclub", it may not be as good as Xu Guangtou. This is the risk, and it may not maximize the benefits.

After Yang Qing and Ning Hao left satisfied, Lin Yicheng sighed.

……

Xu Guangtou is really an extraordinary person, and his methods are very powerful.

Among those actors of the same batch and level as him, who can get as many resources as he does, become a leading figure in the Mesozoic era, and then transform into a tycoon who manipulates capital?

The female one is Zhao Buffy and the male one is Xu Guangtou. These two really made great use of the stock market operations and made a lot of money by cutting leeks.

Moreover, Guangtou Xu is a very poisonous person. The more you know about him, the more suspicious you will become, especially those who are close to him.

For example, Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang, people will suspect that these people have character problems and are not what they see.

The reason is simple, birds of a feather flock together!
Lin Yicheng can compromise this time, but Xu Guangtou must not be asked to star in the play "Lost on Journey".

Even if the box office may not be impressive due to the replacement, he cannot be used.

In his previous life, Lin Yicheng clearly remembered the conflicts and lawsuits between Xu Guangtou and the investors of Lost on Journey.

What’s even more outrageous is that when Xu Guangtou was filming "Lost in Thailand", he did not have the relevant copyright at all.

He deceived Lao Wang of Guangxian, saying that he had obtained the copyright, and only then did he attract investment.

After the filming had already started, Lao Wang realized that he had been cheated, but it was too late and he could only turn a blind eye.

During the early promotion and marketing, the banner used was "Lost in Thailand"!
It was not until the end that the prefix was removed and it became "Lost in Thailand".

The investor of "Lost on Journey", Huaqi Film and Television Company, is weak and cannot cause any trouble even if it wants to.

Lost in Thailand is a huge hit at the box office, and all parties are making a lot of money. Now you want to get a piece of the pie? How is that possible!

Lin Yicheng did not ask Xu Guangtou to perform because he was worried about this.

Although Xinghe Film and Television is not Huaqi Film and Television, Guangtou Xu may not dare to stab him in the back, but Lin Yicheng does not want to take any risks, and even more so does not want to gamble on Guangtou Xu's character.

If he really stabbed us in the back, then several small targets would be lost.

Moreover, preventing Xu Guangtou from performing could also interrupt his path to success, and perhaps eliminate his possibility of becoming a capital tycoon.

I just wish there were fewer leeks in the world!
Lin Yicheng was a leek in his previous life. This time, he was a little gentle to the leeks.
