Entertainment: I can refine my acting skills every day

Chapter 113 110. "Nightclub" is released! Its reputation skyrockets!

Su Chen and Sun Honglei chatted for a few words.

He was afraid that Sun Honglei would look disappointed if his expectations were too high.

"what are you thinking?"

Sun Honglei cheerfully gave Su Chen a punch: "To the outside world, you are the protagonist of this drama, and the story line is connected with you, but in fact, the drama is not with you."

At this moment, the media and film critics outside have begun to enter the scene.

Sun Honglei spoke a little softer: "They will make blind comments, but we actors have to know it ourselves."

As he said this, a girl from the media recognized Sun Honglei, and he smiled at them.

Then he whispered to Su Chen: "No matter whether the film is good or bad, if you get the money or the reputation, let these film critics criticize other things."

Sun Honglei crossed his legs, and the edges of his red socks were exposed, which was very eye-catching.

Xu Fan just said a few words before the video was played. He said to all the media people present: "In addition, we have invited actor Mr. Sun Honglei to say a few words today. Applause, please!"

Sun Honglei stood up and waved to the back row.

Then he whispered the second half of the sentence in Su Chen's ear.

"No scolding? I praise you all the time. Why?"

"It's their job to curse people."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and trotted to the center of the curtain, showing his trademark fake smile.

"Thank you, thank you Xu Fan, and thank you to all my dear media friends and dear film critics who came to the scene. Thank you for your hard work!"

Sun Honglei bowed deeply to everyone!

…

After the film ended, Xu Hu invited Sun Honglei and Su Chen to dinner.

But Sun Honglei had another announcement tomorrow, so he left after sitting there for a while.

After Sun Honglei left, the atmosphere in the private room of this Japanese restaurant became a bit silent.

Xu Hua wiped his face, stepped on the wooden floor wearing a pair of white socks, and sat with one hand on the ground.

"Oh shit."

"It seems that I have failed in my comedy career."

Huang Bo and Su Chen looked at each other, feeling a little disappointed.

The reactions of film critics and reporters just now were very consistent.

"Night Club".

bad movie!

Don't use any black humor or make embarrassing jokes. Film critics and media reporters can only use three words to describe the 100 minutes they spent watching the movie.

That's like a lump in the throat, like a thorn in the back, like sitting on pins and needles!

"Night Club" is indeed Xu Fan's first step in trying to take the film comedy route.

If Su Chen remembered correctly, Xu Huan immediately determined the direction of the comedy movie's route, going straight down one road until it was dark.

"People on the road to embarrassment", "Thailand embarrassment", "My heart is blooming", "囧Mom"...

Anyway, there will be no transformational breakthroughs after tasting the sweetness in the past few years.

If you can make the right money, why do you have to struggle with the market?

Xu Fu ordered a bottle of sake, opened it, took a sip, and sighed: "What a waste."

He poured a small glass for Su Chen: "I'm sorry, I made you act in the first bad movie in your life."

Huang Bo picked up a piece of sashimi with chopsticks, dipped it in mustard, and put it on Xu Kai's plate: "Congratulations, congratulations."

Xu Fan cupped his hands and faced Su Chen and Huang Bo.

"Same joy, same joy!"

Xu Kai silently took two bites of sashimi: "Oh, I'm just going to tell you that I'm not suitable for acting in comedy movies."

He stared, the circles under his eyes were red.

Huang Bo saw Xu Fan crying, and he suddenly felt a little nervous.

After all they have known each other for such a long time, he has never seen Xu Dan cry.

Huang Bo: "It's okay, don't cry, it's just a temporary setback. Life is a long road, and we have a long road ahead..."

Xu Fan looked confused and couldn't help but shed tears: "Ah? I cried so much that I, I choked on mustard!"

…

The three of them finished a late-night meal and walked on the streets of Peiping.

The smog problem has still not been solved, but Su Chen knows that it probably won't be solved in a short time.

There are rows and rows of dim yellow street lights in the distance.

The sand and dust in the air or other unspeakable pollutants rendered the entire long street hazy.

“What a beautiful street lamp.”

Xu Kai just sighed with emotion.

The next moment, the entire road fell into darkness.

"Ah this..."

Xu opened his mouth, his clean shaven forehead being the only source of light on the entire road.

At this moment, he just felt that all the troubles had happened today.

This is how people are unlucky. If the day is unlucky, then the whole day will be unlucky one after another.

"It's normal, it's four o'clock."

Su Chen said: "It's time to turn off the street lights..."

At this moment, the premiere of "Night Club" has ended for more than two hours.

The media and film critics must be working overtime to write articles at this moment, complaining about what is bad about this movie and what is wrong with it.

The "crimes" one by one will be published on Douban or other movie review websites in the near future.

By that time, word-of-mouth has taken over and will dissuade countless viewers who haven't watched it yet.

The money in the audience's pockets cannot be earned by Xu Fan this time.

What’s even more embarrassing is that whether coal boss Li Rongchao’s investment can be recovered is still a question.

Su Chen was actually not sure how much the box office of "Night Club" was at the time.

After all, for such a low-budget black humor movie, it is somewhat suspected of referencing elements from other movies. In short, it’s suspenseful!

Huang Bo turned on his phone.

Found that he could not log into Douban.com.

But Su Chen's Nokia N75 was fine. The three of them were sitting on the street, staring at Su Chen's mobile phone and surfing the Internet.

In this era, E-Net is still used. Although it is not fast, it is not slow either.

Sure enough, the latest bad reviews have appeared in Douban's "Night·Club" column.

"If you can forgive the noisy dialogue, the childish comedy with excessive energy, and the story with almost zero originality... it can still make your eyes shine."

"So, how terrible it is for a director without any sense of humor to make a dark story."

"It's quite boring. It's a bit deliberately trying to imitate the crazy series of movies, but it's totally different~ Embarrassing."

After casually reading a few items, Xu Fan turned his head away and waved his hands away from reading in disinterest.

But at this moment, Su Chen's phone rang.

"Who?"

Huang Bo stretched out his neck and glanced.

"Li Duoyu?"

Su Chen was also surprised. He had not contacted this girl since the last time he and Li Rongchao parted ways in Shanxi.

He picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Brother Su Chen!"

Li Duoyu's voice has a girly quality: "I just finished watching your movie!"

"Ah ha ha."

Su Chen smiled awkwardly, but he really didn't know what to say to this girl.

After all, I'm not very familiar with him.

"My brother took all the employees of the company to watch the show. Everyone was laughing so hard, hahaha!"

"My brother is very satisfied. He praised Li Xiaolu for her best performance. She is indeed the woman he likes."

Su Chen: "..."

Xu Huan: "..."

Huang Bo: "..."

"What? What do you mean? Do you think it looks good?"

Xu Da couldn't hold it back and asked into the phone.

"It's beautiful, it's really beautiful! It's quite interesting."

After hearing Li Duoyu's reply, Xu Huan raised his eyebrows and looked at Su Chen, he was a little unsure.

"Huh? Was it Teacher Xu Kai who was talking just now? Teacher Xu Kai, I grew up watching your TV series when I was a kid!"

"Yeah."

"What a wonderful spring time, it's better to have a dream..."

After Xu Fan heard the call, he felt a little excited.

He even sang two verses along with it.

Then Li Rongchao answered the phone: "Brother!"

"Well done!"

"Tomorrow I will reserve two more shows for my hotel staff to watch together, okay! Support!"

After hanging up the phone, three faces were confused in the haze on the streets of Peiping.

"like……"

"It's not that bad?"

Xu Huan swallowed and looked at Su Chen.

…

One day later.

The box office of "Night Club" on the first day was 1.78 million, ranking third among the movies in the same period.

One week after its release, the box office of the entire movie has reached 4 million!

It has only been released for one week and it has already almost paid back its money.

This is not the point. The point is that although film critics from all walks of life have been criticizing it, the box office of this small-budget movie has gone against the trend!

The major theater chains across the country are not fools either!

As long as movies can help them make money, why not increase the number of movies? What do film critics care about movie theaters?

When Xu Huan called Su Chen, he was so excited that emoticons popped up on the screen of his phone.

"I guess, it will take at least two or three weeks."

"I asked someone to make an estimate today. After the end of next week, it will be at least 10 million!"

When Xu opened the phone, the voice changed.

"Miracle!"

"This is a miracle, hahahahaha!"

"What kind of film critics, all of them are great, can you still fuck me?"

"Slap me in the face, slap me hard in the face!"

At the same time, when Xu Fan vented his anger, the film critics also seemed to have suffered a defeat.

The entire movie review forum and Douban were filled with howls!

"The decline of the domestic film market actually started with a small-budget comedy!"

"Audiences can no longer tell the difference between good movies and bad movies. Is this because film critics are behind the times, or is it a regression of the times?"

"Vulgarity wins over elegance, and bad movies win over box office. It's so helpless to live in such a movie era."

"Alas, alas!"

After Su Chen hung up the phone, he did a rough calculation. If the movie continues to grow according to the current situation, at least, Li Rongchao can earn at least twice as much.

Twice that, which is only four million.

For Li Rongchao, it is nothing at all. It is not as big as him going to Omen once.

However, this is also profitable!

Although Su Chen currently has no clear evidence to prove whether something happened to Li Rongchao and Li Xiaolu at that time.

Even if Li Xiaolu was not short of money and Li Rongchao didn't succeed, then he would have at least had a meal with his favorite actress and earned four million by the way.

Is this the benefit of money begetting money?

The script of "A Good Show" has almost taken shape, and Huang Bo has been in great shape these past two days.

A meal of oysters every day, plus half a beer, and I walked unswervingly on the road to gout.

There was someone at the Ninth Theater specifically looking for Huang Bo to perform in a play for a month, but he turned him down without even going.

He couldn't hear what was going on outside the window, he lowered his head and just read the words in his hands.

It is estimated that the script will be formed tonight, and since they are all industry insiders, there is no need to find other screenwriters to adjust the script. Su Chen and Huang Bo can determine if there are any problems after just one glance.

If there's no problem, just hire the crew directly.

In fact, to be honest, when Su Chen was filming this movie, although he did his best to star in it, he didn't pay too much attention to it after all.

But after the film was aired, unexpectedly, it had a greater impact on Su Chen than "Crazy Racing"!

Inside the Douban "Night Club" page at this moment.

The movie's rating has dropped to 6.1.

There are about one to two hundred negative reviews all criticizing this movie, but there is one short review that has a lot of positive reviews.

In other words, this short review of a few words basically represents the voice of domestic filmmakers.

"The reason for giving this movie one star is that they found a pretty good actor to be the convenience store clerk, I mean, that guy."

Just this short comment has over 20,000 likes!

Such an accidental short review actually caused Su Chen to have a special discussion thread on this movie!

"Ahhh! My Liao Sanmin!"

"It must be him. He looked familiar to me. I didn't expect to see him in the movie. After leaving the cinema, I quickly came over to make sure it was him!"

"This actor seems to be called Su Chen. He is still a newcomer. He seems to be very hard-working. His film output has been quite high recently."

"It's a pity. Alas, my Liao Sanmin doesn't have much room to develop in this film."

"Is it my imagination? Why do I always feel that Li Xiaolu is leaning on Liao Sanmin intentionally or unintentionally when watching movies?"

"I was killed by a werewolf in Beijing. Unexpectedly, the "Wolf King" used to do a good job as an undercover agent, but now he actually works in a convenience store..."

Su Chen read these messages one by one.

He was surprised that many movie fans seemed to already know that his name was not Liao Sanmin, but Su Chen.

Of course, this is actually an illusion.

Because only people who are curious about Su Chen will come here to search, and after knowing the name, they will emphasize the name again.

The movie has only been released for a week now.

Su Chen's post bar already has movie fans coming to see him.

Xu Fan gave him an estimate. If the box office of this movie can reach 10 million, then at least it can be said that at least 500,000 domestic viewers have watched this movie.

So it is not surprising that 50,000 of them were deeply impressed by Su Chen and wanted to find information about him online.

Who gave him more roles?

Seeing the popularity of "Night Club", Su Chen couldn't help but sigh.

With a box office of 10 million, he received a salary of 100,000 yuan.

It's not that I'm jealous of others making money, it's just that as an actor who is not yet popular, the money he gets is equivalent to 1% of the total box office.

But if he were a famous actor, his earnings would be countless times higher than what Su Chen is making now.

From 500 yuan for the first scene after rebirth, to 500,000 yuan for the just-finished film "Let the Bullets Fly."

The distance Su Chen has covered in this year has doubled his salary a thousand times, which is better than the lifetime efforts of many actors who are not famous.

This is also talent, opportunity, and fate. Of course, it is also the reason why he is a reborn person.

in addition.

The scarf has just been launched in the past two days and has entered the trial operation stage.

Su Chen has already registered an account, but has not had time to update anything.

It also takes about a few months for people to get used to the scarf and become proficient in using Weibo.

Unlike in later years, as long as a new person shows up, the interested audience will find this new person almost within a few minutes.

With just one click of follow, a close connection between celebrities and fans is established.

Su Chen knew that the influence "Night Club" brought to him was just an unexpected surprise.

What he is currently paying more attention to is the movie "October Siege" which will be released in less than half a month.

With the almost all-star cast of "October Siege", this influence is huge enough.

…

Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will come.

While Su Chen was thinking this, his cell phone rang.

The caller name above said: Chen Kexin!

Huang Bo is still working on the script in front of his laptop.

After Su Chen answered the phone, he walked to the bathroom, closed the door, and cleared his throat.

"Hey, Director Peter Chan!"

"Hey, Su Chen, it's like this. I want to inform you that in about thirteen days, you may need to come to Shanghai."

"As one of the main actors, there is an opening ceremony for the public screening that requires your formal attendance and participation. You have a schedule, right?"

"We made it clear in the contract at the time."

Of course Su Chen remembered.

"If there is a schedule, Director Chen, no problem, I will definitely be there on time."

Peter Chan smiled kindly on the phone: "Other actors will also be present. After the film screening, there will be about thirty minutes of question and answer time, as well as interactive time."

When Su Chen heard this, he probably knew what kind of scale it was.

"OK, I see."

before hanging up the phone.

Chen Kexin has not forgotten to remind Su Chen.

"Remember to wear a more expensive suit."

"A suit worth RMB 10,000 may not be enough for an occasion like this."

Needless to say, Peter Chan said that all the stars who appeared in the film that day would probably treat the premiere ceremony as a show.

so……

Chen Kexin also didn't want to see this silly boy like Su Chen, wearing a suit worth ten thousand yuan, standing among the big-name stars and being drowned in his own light.

"Received director."

Su Chen hung up the phone and was about to open the bathroom door, but he bumped into someone.

"Brother Bo, what are you eavesdropping at the toilet door?"

Huang Bo waved his hand: "Who heard this? The script is finished, am I not here to go to the toilet?"

Then, he came closer.

"Are you going to Shanghai?"

"The premiere of "October Siege"?"

Su Chen nodded.

"I won't go until thirteen days later. There's no rush."

"It must be star-studded."

Huang Bo rubbed his hands, a little envious.

Look at the movies Su Chen acted in, and then look at the movies I acted in. The gap between people is so obvious.

He smiled and said: "I feel like you are obviously my junior brother, but you are trying to catch up from behind."

Su Chen laughed and said: "I play a supporting role in the movie and you play the leading role in the movie. Why are you panicking?"

He walked out of the bathroom and said to Huang Bo: "By the way, Brother Bo, if the script is finalized, let's determine the roles according to the script."

Huang Bo said: "Okay, I already have an actor candidate in my mind. There is a character I want to call Wang Baoqiang."

Su Chen pulled him over, sat in front of the table, took out a pen, and wrote in a notebook: "I have to ask Brother Honglei if he has any schedule."

"Okay, I'll call Wang Xun here and add one more person."

Huang Bo sat next to Su Chen and crossed his legs.

"I'll add Xu Huan here."

"Forget it Xu Huan, he's not scheduled."

Huang Bo hesitated: "Where's Shu Qi?"

"Isn't there Li Duoyu? Let's change the age of the characters in the script. He is the financial backer."

"No, can Li Duoyu compare with Shu Qi? I have been watching her works since I was a child..."

Su Chen asked back: "Have you been serious since you were a child?"

…

It's obviously late at night.

The summer in Peiping is very hot, but the air conditioner is on in the house.

ten minutes later.

The discussion in the room continued.

Huang Bo's voice: "I am young, Gao Hu, the benefactor who brought me into the circle, I have to shout, there is nothing wrong with me."

Su Chen: "Liu Hansheng, my classmate, is the number one actor and assistant director in Huairou. He is a loyal person. It's okay to add him to the group."

"OK."

Huang Bo nodded and thought hard: "Yes, my aunt is very good at cooking. There's nothing wrong with the crew's meals."

Su Chen closed the notebook and looked at Huang Bo without saying a word.

Huang Bo: "...Okay, okay, can't I just remove my aunt...?"

Brothers, I will update 10,000 words today. Let’s take a short break and ask for monthly votes!! Please recommend votes!!
