Huayu is free to do as you like

"Don't be depressed. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time. After all, this is your first time as a director. It's very rare to achieve this level."

The fan meeting for the last roadshow ended today, and the main creators of the "Sky Hunt" crew got in the car and went back to the hotel to rest.

Li Chen took a look at the real-time box office data, sighed, and looked out the window blankly.

The girlfriend beside him squeezed his hand and comforted him softly.

“It’s easy to say, I’m afraid there will be no next time.

According to the current box office trend, our movie will almost lose close to 100 million.

I won’t be approached to direct a movie again.

[Sky Hunter] is probably my first and last movie." Li Chen turned around, looked at his girlfriend's beautiful face, and said with a wry smile.

He knew that the other party was trying to comfort him. Everyone knew the truth, but there were only a few who were truly open-minded.

"If you can't be a director, you can continue to be an actor. Look at Xu Zheng, Gu Wei, and Wu Jing. Even if they are so successful as directors, they still go back to being actors. It's not a big deal.

As a new director, it is already excellent to be able to make a movie like "Sky Hunter".

It's just that everyone's expectations for you are too high. It's a big investment of more than 200 million.

If you make a low-budget movie first, you might be a new generation of dark horse director."

Fan Bingbing knows how to comfort people. She has been able to do so well in the industry over the years not only because of her face, but also because of her ability to deal with people and sophistication.

"can you?"

"certainly."

Bingbing nodded, knowing that what her boyfriend needed most at this time was her positive feedback.

“Look at director Ning Hao’s famous film [Crazy Stone], with an investment of 3 million and a box office of less than 20 million.

The cost of "Xiu Chun Dao" directed by Lu Yang was only 30 million, and the final box office was more than 200 million.

They are professional directors. When they first started, they didn’t dare to make big investments. You were mainly dragged down by the cost.

I remember that Wu Jing's first movie "Spike" only made less than 5 million at the box office, and it was a huge loss.

Later, the [Wolf Warrior] series was filmed.

So don’t be discouraged, whether you want to continue being a director or concentrate on being an actor, I support you.”

Li Chen's mood improved slightly under his girlfriend's warm comfort.

He was also very touched by Fan Bingbing's support.

"Thank you, Bingbing, I'm not afraid of anything as long as you are here.

The movie is still in theaters. Although the current box office trend is not ideal, I will do my best to promote it and minimize losses.

I will carefully consider whether to act or film in the future.

Even if we plan to make another new movie, we won’t make such a big investment like this time.

You are right, I am a new director, and small-budget films may not be big hits, but the risks are low and the returns are high, and it can also let the outside world see my true ability."

Seeing her boyfriend regain some confidence, Fan Bingbing smiled happily.

To be honest, based on her experience, she could tell that her boyfriend really didn't have that talent.

There is no comparison with people like Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, Gu Wei, and Wu Jing.

But it doesn't matter, at least Li Chen is very calm and obedient in front of her despite the strong woman and the weak man.

But what she wants now is this stability and obedience.

If she wanted to find someone who would help her career, she had plenty of candidates, but she would never establish a relationship with Li Chen.

To put it bluntly, Fan Bingbing has been working hard in the entertainment industry for more than ten years and has gained fame and fortune, so he just wants to find an honest person to take over.

Although Li Chen has many ex-girlfriends, he is still very honest after being with her.

It's a pity that if Fan Bingbing maintains her status as the wealthy master Fan, the two may really get married.

But she didn't know that a so-called honest person like Li Chen was not only capable in one aspect, but also didn't have much responsibility.

A person's experience determines his attitude towards things and his final achievements.

Wu Jing, who has experienced ups and downs since he was a child, has an indomitable will. The failure of "Langya" cannot break him. He sells his house and borrows money to make movies, so his success is inevitable to a certain extent.

Even if "War Wolf" fails again, maybe he will make "War Tiger" and "War Dragon".

Li Chen's journey since joining the industry has been relatively smooth. Not to mention cowardly in character, he is also the type who is content with being rich, has a stable habit, and will shrink back when things happen.

So Fan Bingbing is at the height of his power now, and the two of them are extremely affectionate. If something goes wrong in the future, they will definitely have to separate when disaster strikes.

After all, he is not Jiang Wen. Even if he breaks up and becomes an ex-boyfriend, he can still run for his ex-girlfriend.

On the contrary, Wu Jing and Jiang Wen are more similar in this regard. Both of them are macho men, and they both have a wolfish nature in Zhongqingyi.

It can only be said that every time people slaughter dogs when they are righteous, they will always be scholars when they are unfaithful.

Regarding the failure of [Sky Hunter], some people are sad, some are regretful, and some are grateful.

Mr. Yu from Bona is the lucky one.

At the beginning, he also intended to invest in "Sky Hunter". After all, Bona has always focused on positive patriotic-themed movies.

However, when the film was being prepared, Bona did not participate because there were many investors who were optimistic about the film.

As a director, Li Chen also invested a lot of money himself. In addition to having confidence in himself at the time, he also wanted to have a gimmick after the film was released so that the film funds would not be enough for the director to pay for it out of his own pocket.

When Wu Jing wanted to sell his house to make a movie, Gu Wei volunteered to fund it, and it became a good story among netizens.

Li Chen wanted to learn this.

As a result, [Sky Hunter] hit the streets, and the gimmick turned into a joke.

Fortunately, he didn't invest at the time, so Bona lost a lot of money.

Yu Dong can also see that the subject matter of the movie is very important, but more important is the person who makes the movie.

"Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" was successful because the director was Xu Ke.

[Operation Mekong] was a hit because of Lin Chaoxian and Gu Wei.

[Wolf Warrior 2] Not to mention, Gu Wei and Wu Jing, the quality, popularity, and box office appeal are all top-notch.

The theme and story of "Hunting in the Sky" are actually good, but Li Chen is too far-fetched and a poor director. No matter how good the story is, he can't make it exciting.

On October 8, the National Day ended, a piece of news was reported that shocked the entertainment industry and shot directly to the top of the hot search rankings.

Lu Han disclosed his relationship on Weibo without any warning.

"Hello everyone, let me introduce to you, this is my girlfriend @Guan Xiaotong."

And Guan Xiaotong replied: "Oops, click! @Lu Han"

This incident immediately aroused public opinion.

Countless fans commented on Lu Han's Weibo, but most of them were not blessings.

[No. Why do I feel that the two of them have no sense of coherence at all, they can't feel like they are together, and the height difference is very embarrassing]

[Oops, the person I like the most likes the person I dislike the most, what should I do? 】

【If I can get married, I lose! 】

[The mobile phones endorsed are all different, how can we fall in love? 】

[Liar, how could Lu Han fall in love with Guan Xiaotong? They are not a match at all! 】

[I heard that the two of them fell in love because of the drama "Sweetness". They are so sweet, and the heartbreak is all for the fans! 】

[I lost my fandom. I spent so much money on support and bought numerous endorsements. The result is that I am not qualified to be an idol when I officially announce my relationship so early! 】

[Man Lu Hanchun, when you fall in love, it’s official. This sense of security gives Guan Xiaotong so much happiness! 】

[Bless both of them. Although this news is a bit unexpected for me, I still hope that Lu Han and Mrs. Lu can be happy]

【.】

In just half a day, Lu Han's Weibo post received 1 million comments, and even the platform was paralyzed for a while due to the rapid influx of traffic.

Fans expressed a mixture of shock, sadness, and anger.

Many fans are heartbroken and have lost their fans. Most people are not optimistic about this pair and feel that the two will not be compatible for long.

The man lost fans and was criticized as being unqualified as an idol, while the woman gained a group of black fans.

Lu Han's Weibo also lost hundreds of thousands of followers in a short period of time because of his official announcement of his relationship.

"Lu Han is too impulsive, but he is really responsible.

I always thought he was a bit effeminate before, but this time he looks very manly! "

At noon, the [Do you know] crew took a break and everyone gathered together to eat.

Zhang Jianing put one end of the chopsticks in his mouth, looked at the phone and sighed.

"Jianing, I think it is necessary to tell Xiaolu that you think he is a bitch." Gu Wei looked at Zhang Jianing with a smile and threatened her to report him.

"My focus is on whether the second half of the sentence is good or not. You are praising Lu Han. You are taking it out of context," Zhang Jianing defended.

After having dinner and watching a movie together that night, [Do you know] the young actors in the crew obviously got along more harmoniously.

Originally, everyone thought that Gu Wei and Zhao Liying were big-name celebrities and would not get along well with each other, but after contacting them, they found that they had very good personalities.

Gu Wei has a gentle personality, has no airs, and speaks in a humorous manner.

Zhao Liying is dedicated and serious about her work, but she always takes matters into her own hands and is easy to talk to.

"I don't care, Yilong can testify to this, right?"

Zhu Yirong, who was concentrating on eating, was startled when he found that Gu Wei and Zhang Jianing were looking at him.

"Yeah, right!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Jianing glared at him and quickly changed his words.

"Isn't it still right?"

"You owe me a meal, so I'll keep this a secret for you." Gu Wei said as he patted Zhu Yirong's shoulder. "I'll take you with me then."

"Okay, stop teasing Jianing," Zhao Liying said.

"Why are you not surprised at such a big thing?"

"I'm not surprised that they are together, because I already knew it, but it's just that Xiaolu made it public so soon, which is beyond my expectation," Gu Wei said matter-of-factly.

After he finished speaking, everyone turned their attention to him.

"Have you known this for a long time?" Zhang Jianing was a little surprised.

"Yes, not only I know, but Deng Chao also knows.

I have a good relationship with Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong, isn’t it normal to know this?”

As he said this, Gu Wei glanced at his phone. On Weibo, members of the men's running team sent messages to congratulate Lu Han, including Guan Xiaotong's friends, such as Ma Chun and Chen Duling.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Wei put down his chopsticks, picked up his phone, and replied to the official Weibo post:

[Congratulations to Xiaolu and Xiaotong, I’m happy for you and wish you a happy journey! come on! 】

It's not that Gu Wei is acting, his public voice is to express his support for the relationship between the two.

After the reply was sent, many netizens immediately liked and commented on the reply.

[Lu Han has made his relationship public, Gu Wei, please don’t let anything happen to you. My little heart cannot withstand repeated blows. 】

[Although I know that you two have a good relationship, can we not learn from him? To be a qualified idol, it doesn’t mean that you are not allowed to fall in love and it is not officially announced. Anyway, you have so many rumored girlfriends. As long as it is not officially announced, we will treat you as such. is fake! 】

[It doesn’t matter, it doesn’t matter if it’s public. We are in this age, and celebrities falling in love is nothing new. Anyway, I just like the movies and TV series you act in.]

[Speaking of which, Gu Wei, you have so many rumored girlfriends, you probably can’t make them public. If you are called a scumbag, you will be in trouble]

【.】

Gu Wei's actions were seen by everyone, and his Weibo replies could also be seen by others.

"If you had a confirmed girlfriend, would you make it public like Lu Han?" Zhao Liying asked curiously as she looked at the fans' replies.

"Me?" Gu Wei thought for a while.

"I feel that this matter is not a problem for me. If there is a need to make it public, it doesn't matter."

“Aren’t you afraid of losing fans like Lu Han?

After all, you are now recognized as the number one traffic star in the industry and the star with the largest number of fans in the country." After Zhao Liying said this, the others also looked at Gu Wei.

"It's okay to say that, if I officially announce my relationship, I won't be able to escape from losing fans.

I also have a lot of girlfriend fans among my fans. If Lu Han does this, a large number of fans will definitely lose their followers, or even turn into negative fans out of love and hatred.

But unlike Xiaolu, what I currently rely on is not those ardent fans, but the reputation and personal brand established one after another in film and television dramas.

These things will not change whether I make my relationship official or not.

Let’s put it this way, fans are the icing on the cake for me at the moment. It’s good to have them, but it’s okay not to have them.

What’s more, even if I announce my relationship and quit my followers, only some of my girlfriend’s fans will be my fans.”

After speaking, Gu Wei took a sip of water.

"Actually, Liying, you are in a similar situation now.

When it comes to letting his works speak for himself, he has long passed the stage of relying on his fans.

Don't talk about officially announcing your relationship, even if you marry someone else, fans who like you will only give their blessings."

Zhao Liying listened to what Gu Wei said at first, which was quite reasonable, but later she rolled her eyes at him when he talked about getting married.

"I don't even have a boyfriend. Whoever I marry will be paid by the state?"

After saying that, Zhu Yirong and Zhang Jianing beside him both laughed.

Lu Han's official announcement of his relationship has a big impact, and it is even more harmful to him and even Guan Xiaotong's career.

Unlike Gu Wei, Lu Han has few real works outside the industry. Over the years since he returned to China, he has relied on fans who like him to support top brands. In this regard, the four returning brothers are similar.

In terms of nationality, they are still far behind those veteran actors who have been involved in the film and television industry for many years.

In fact, even Gu Wei, if it weren't for one hit movie after another in the past few years, he would be far away from the top niche players in the entertainment industry such as Huang Xiaoming and Deng Chao.

After all, he has been in the industry for more than 20 years and has produced excellent works that have become popular across the country. He has become familiar to audiences across the country purely through time and performance.

In this regard, young stars who lack time to accumulate will certainly suffer some losses.

For celebrities, popularity and nationality are sometimes two different concepts.

For example, Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan were popular when actors and actresses had children. They were child stars, but no one would recognize them for their popularity. At least they didn't have many fans.

The Four Returned Sons, after returning from South Korea, are like half the sky with red heads, and they have so many and crazy fans.

But if you ask an older person what these people do, he probably won’t recognize them.

When Wu Jing went on the show, wasn't he subjected to online violence because he didn't recognize a few people or even whether they were male or female?

Their fame only spreads within a certain range. In terms of nationality, they may not be as well-known as the original Liu Xing and Xiaoxue.

Now Lu Han's official announcement of his relationship is a bit like cutting off the support of his career.

Fans were lost, many endorsements and variety shows were cut off, and the film and television resources that were originally interested in finding him also retreated, and his position at the top of the list was shaky.

Guan Xiaotong is not feeling well either, mainly because many of Lu Han's fans have turned into her haters. She was originally the most rising actress born in 1995, but now her momentum has been interrupted because of this incident.

However, Lu Han fell, but many people were secretly happy.

After all, the fans and resources he lost will not disappear but will be transferred to others.

For example, his former teammate Li Jiaheng, who has been competing with him, Yang Yang, Li Yifeng, Deng Lun and Li Xian of Gu Wei Company, who have been on the rise in the past two years, Ren Jialun, Hu Yitian, Bai Jingting, Liu Haoran and others who have just emerged and gained some popularity.

Male celebrities of a similar age to him will more or less benefit from it.

Especially those male traffickers who have a similar temperament and image to Lu Han or are similar to famous celebrities, they are very happy to share the resources flowing from him.
