My Songwriting Was Rejected, But I Became A Superstar

The first time, the second time.

Chapter 241 You are very talented

Other guests also asked Hong Tao to direct them. Looking at Liu Zifan who looked stunned, they felt a little ridiculous. This scene was really familiar. Before, on this stage, Zeng Huayu was as confident and arrogant as Liu Zifan. He thought he could beat Zhou Yu, but he lost to him again and again.

Now Liu Zifan is like Zeng Huayu in the past. He obviously doesn’t have that ability, but he still wants to provoke Zhou Yu. And as a top star, Liu Zifan represents the interests of many parties. He is known as the first rapper in China. This time he represents the entire rap circle to compete with Zhou Yu. He had benefited from the H-stream, and this time the hype made him lose to Zhou Yu as a representative of the domestic H-stream.

One person, representing two circles, but lost to Zhou Yu. It is conceivable how broken Liu Zifan’s heart was at this moment.

After being pulled away by his agent, Liu Zifan sat in the car, no longer as calm as he was in the lounge just now. After his agent told him about the situation just now, he had realized the seriousness of the matter, and this matter was far from as simple as he imagined.

“I say Zifan, what happened to you these two times? You lost to Zhou Yu twice in a row. And this time, you hyped up your popularity so much, and aroused the power of H-stream fans, but still lost to Zhou Yu.”

The agent was a little depressed and in a very irritable mood.

“You represent not only yourself, but also the entire rap circle, and the H-stream circle, which is your biggest support. You lost both times. It’s not just you who lost face, but also the face of these two circles. These are your biggest supports!”

After failing to beat Zhou Yu in rap, he still wanted to use the power of H-stream fans, but he still lost. These two circles were Liu Zifan’s biggest trump cards and supports, but now he has lost them all.

After the last episode was broadcast, the entire rap circle became a joke. Before, they took the lead in diss Zhou Yu, and suffered a hundred times the backlash after the show was broadcast. He now dare not imagine what will happen after this episode is broadcast.

Zhou Yu is tough against H-stream, yes, he is indeed going to fall into the whirlpool of public opinion, and those crazy H-stream fans will definitely not let Zhou Yu go so easily. But Liu Zifan, as a representative figure of domestic H-stream culture, lost to Zhou Yu in the show, and he used H-stream to hype before, so the crises they have to face this time may be even more serious than the last time.

Now the result has been informed to the company, it depends on what measures the company will take to deal with it. When the show is broadcast, whether the operator will reduce the impact or throw out some other stars’ things to block it, I don’t know.

“Next, you should record China’s Hip-Hop honestly for me. As for the recording of the singer, you should keep a low profile.”

The agent was also a little angry. This guy promised him solemnly that there would be no problem this time. He was the one who contacted the company to help him with publicity and hype, but the current situation is that he lost more than he gained.

He wanted to win Zhou Yu by relying on H flow, but in the end he shot himself in the foot.

Liu Zifan also realized the seriousness of the problem. This time he was indeed reckless and built up too much momentum in advance. Now that he lost to Zhou Yu, he was a little embarrassed.

“I know.”

Now the show “China’s Hip-Hop” is on the air. Although the previous episode was affected by Zhou Yu, the reputation of the program group on the Internet was not very good. But this black and red is also red. The more popular the show is, the better it is for them. If he lost to Zhou Yu, then he will find it back in this show, perform better, and show his professionalism as a mentor, which can also reduce the impact of this incident.

…

At this moment, Zhou Yu has returned to the hotel to rest. Tomorrow morning, he will fly to Beijing to find Director Chen for an audition.

This drama “Double Dragon Detective” is an opportunity for Zhou Yu. If the audition is successful, then this will be his first film and television work as the male lead, which will be of great help to his future entry into film and television.

And he didn’t always want to find others to cooperate. He has a script and has learned some shooting techniques. This time, he can learn from Director Chen when filming. After that, he can make his own film, so

It can save a lot of money.

If every time there is a script, you take it to find others to cooperate in filming, the cost is high, and if it continues like this, the company will not be able to form its own ecological chain. The company he wants to build is not just a simple training artist. The entertainment industry is a big cake, and artists are just a small piece. What he wants to do is to be a company that can train excellent artists and produce IP.

He has a lot of IPs in his hands, and then slowly take them out to realize them, so his own company must have its own film and television team. Directors and screenwriters can come now, and then slowly train new people to take over, and then slowly lie down and make money.

Before Zhou Yu went to bed, he re-studied the script, and only after he understood it clearly did he put it away and went to bed.

The next day, Zhou Yu and his team flew directly to Beijing. As soon as they left the airport, the people arranged by Director Chen picked them up.

“Hello, Mr. Zhou Yu. Director Chen asked me to take you there directly. I will send you to the hotel to rest after the audition.”

The young man who came was a young man. He looked at Zhou Yu with some admiration in his eyes. Zhou Yu is very influential now. Although his songs have fans of all ages. But the most are still these young people.

“Okay, thank you for your hard work.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay.”

The young man looked at the car. Although he admired Zhou Yu, he was not so crazy. He was very restrained and peeked at his idol in the rearview mirror from time to time.

“Teacher Zhou Yu, you just finished recording the new episode of Singer?”

Seeing that Zhou Yu seemed tired, the young man turned on the heater in the car and played some soothing music.

“Well, I just finished recording yesterday.”

“It will take some time to get to the audition place. Teacher Zhou Yu, you can rest for a while. I will call you when we get there.”

Zhou Yu still felt good about this young man.

After arriving at the audition place, Zhou Yu and his friends directly entered the crew under the leadership of the young man. There were many actors outside who came to audition. Zhou Yu was not too familiar with people in the entertainment industry, but those who could audition for Director Chen’s new movie were all big names.

Pushing open the door of the hall and entering, there was a noisy sound. You could see many actors in costumes auditioning.

“Director Chen is over there, Teacher Zhou Yu, wait a moment.”

The man trotted over and said something to the middle-aged man in a baseball cap who was leading the group. The middle-aged man in a black down jacket looked over, saw Zhou Yu, and waved.

“Xiao Zhou is here.”

Zhou Yu greeted Director Chen. This popular director in China was about 37 years old. He kept a good figure. He wore a baseball cap, had some dark circles under his eyes, and looked a little haggard. It was probably because he was busy with the new movie during this period.

“Director Chen.”

Zhou Yu greeted him. This was the first time he met Director Chen. He had always thought that Director Chen was the kind of cold-faced director who was intimidating without anger and never smiled. But after getting to know him, I found that he was easy to get along with. He always had a faint smile on his face and was humorous during the conversation.

At this time, several middle-aged men with outstanding temperament came over, and Director Chen waved to them: “Old Wang, come on, come over here, I’ll introduce you.”

Zhou Yu looked at the men. These men are big names in the domestic entertainment industry and first-line actors. Teacher Wang Qiang, who is shorter than normal men, is one of the male protagonists of this drama, playing Tang Ren. A very thin teacher with a smiling face. He was born as a star in Wuhan University, but he has become popular in recent years with comedy.

Next to him is a slightly fat and round middle-aged man. Although he has gained weight, you can vaguely see his handsome appearance when he was thin. This teacher is called Chen Ming. He made his debut in a comedy and played the role of policeman Huang Landeng.

As for the teacher on the right, Hu Wei, who is also a little fat, but not as fat as Teacher Chen Ming, he was a singer and switched to an actor. Very successful, good acting skills, in recent years has created many classic screen roles, also mainly on the comedy route, this time in the show played the police officer Kuntai.

Just these few people, it is difficult to invite one of them in the circle. This time can join Director Chen’s new movie, enough to show Director Chen’s current connections and influence.

Wang Qiang and the other three also noticed Zhou Yu, and also stretched out their hands to say hello: “Xiao Zhou, right? We have heard your songs, they are very good.”

“Looking forward to your audition performance later.”

These three seniors are quite enthusiastic, but except for Teacher Hu Wei, who changed from a singer, who is really enthusiastic about Zhou Yu, the other teachers are all very enthusiastic.

A bit of courtesy. There was even a bit of distrust in Zhou Yu’s eyes.

“This is Zhou Yu, this is Teacher Wang Qiang…”

Director Chen introduced each other and asked someone to arrange for Zhou Yu to change his costume for an audition.

Teacher Hu Wei was more patient with Zhou Yu, who was also a singer who changed his career to become an actor, and reminded him kindly: “Don’t be nervous later, just follow the script you understand.”

Teachers Chen Ming and Wang Qiang also said politely: “Xiao Zhou sings so well, don’t let us down in this audition.”

In their hearts, when they knew that Zhou Yu was going to audition for the role of Qin Feng, they were quite resistant. Especially Wang Qiang, the role of Qin Feng is his partner, and he needs an actor who can resonate with him, not a vase.

Although Director Chen said before that Zhou Yu’s acting skills are good, for them, they look down on these young people. A good idol singer doesn’t want to be a singer, but has to come to the entertainment industry to make trouble. He has no acting skills, which is embarrassing to watch. When the time comes, they will ruin the works that everyone has worked so hard to shoot, and they will be scolded together.

Zhou Yu can also feel a little bit of the opinions from Teacher Wang Qiang and others, as if they are not very optimistic about him.

He smiled in his heart. For these powerful actors in the entertainment industry, they have tinted glasses for these artists who have crossed over from singers to actors. After all, in recent years, many idol singers and the like have crossed over to become actors. In this era where traffic is king, directors and investors will use them for traffic, ratings and box office. But these people’s acting skills are worse than one another. Are there any good ones? There are, but too few.

This has led to the fact that many film and television works released in recent years, although the ratings have risen, the reputation is generally not good. The real audience is complaining about the acting skills of those traffic artists, and even scolding others and even the whole show. A rat shit spoils the whole pot of soup, that is, these people. So, this is why the real actors in the entertainment industry don’t like these young cross-industry traffic artists and singers.

If Zhou Yu had not been very successful in music today, these teachers would have heard his songs, and the quality is indeed very high. Otherwise, if it were someone else, they probably wouldn’t have said anything to Zhou Yu.

When Zhou Yu went to change his costumes, Wang Qiang and the others looked at Director Chen and asked, “Old Chen, are you really going to use him?”

He didn’t think highly of this Zhou Yu anyway. As for music, he believed that this guy’s talent in music was indeed beyond reproach. But acting, that’s another story. Although I’ve always heard from Director Chen that Zhou Yu had previously made a guest appearance in Director Yu’s new drama, Director Yu was very satisfied with Zhou Yu’s performance and said that he had very good acting skills. But I haven’t seen it with my own eyes, and these young traffic stars have left him with a very bad impression in recent years. With this inherent impression, they think Zhou Yu is not suitable for Qin Feng, the important male lead.

Director Chen smiled and looked at the place where Zhou Yu was changing his clothes: “We’ll know after seeing his performance later.”

It hasn’t really been decided yet. Zhou Yu is just the first choice. If he really can’t do it, he won’t give it even for Jiang Dan’s face. After all, this is related to the whole movie. The role of Qin Feng is very important. He will not let an unprofessional person play it.

Wang Qiang and others saw this and did not say anything. Whether Zhou Yu can do it or not, whether it is as Director Yu said, we will know later.

Other people at the scene also noticed Zhou Yu. For other actors, Zhou Yu coming here for an audition is indeed a very surprising thing for them.

“I heard that Director Chen wants to give the role of Qin Feng to Zhou Yu. Now it seems to be true.”

“Don’t talk nonsense, this is just an audition. Whether it can work or not depends on Zhou Yu’s performance later.”

“I really don’t understand why these singers come to film. They want acting skills and no acting skills, just to make money.”

“That’s right, Zhou Yu is so successful in music, why not continue to make his music, but he has to get involved in our entertainment industry. When his acting skills are not good, he will be complained, and our entire crew and even the whole drama will be scolded.”

…

Others in the crew are not very optimistic about Zhou Yu. There have been too many such examples in recent years. Many popular artists and singers come to film movies from other industries, but the results are indescribable.

When Ning Wanqiu and the others were waiting for Zhou Yu outside the dressing room, they could feel and even hear the whispers of people around them. They were not very optimistic about Zhou Yu.

At this time, Zhou Yu had already changed into Qin Feng’s costume and walked out. He was dressed simply as a young boy, with headphones hanging around his neck, and he was tall and handsome. Seeing Zhou Yu

Seeing the figure, Director Chen and Wang Qiang were stunned for a moment, and Director Chen was the first to react and walked over.

“Not bad, not bad, this image is quite suitable.”

Even Wang Qiang and others had to admit that after Zhou Yu changed into the costume, he was completely like entering the role, which was very suitable for the image of Qin Feng. And after they saw Zhou Yu, they understood why so many girls like him. Not to mention his talent, he is really handsome.

“Come, follow me, come to the room, there are few people inside, show me a scene.”

Zhou Yu nodded and followed Director Chen to an audition room, which is a place specially for actors to audition.

Following him, Wang Qiang and others also wanted to see how Zhou Yu, a singer with great talent in music, acted. Is he really as Director Yu said, with real skills, or is he just here to make money in this circle?

“Do you need help with the play?”

Teacher Hu Wei, who plays Kuntai, looked at Zhou Yu. He was also a singer who changed his career and knew that he would face some difficulties at the beginning. He liked to listen to some of Zhou Yu’s songs. This time Zhou Yu came to the audition and was more concerned about him like a senior.

Zhou Yu smiled and declined Teacher Hu Wei’s help. Sometimes, it is easier to get into the play when there are actors helping you with the play. However, Zhou Yu did not want to trouble the seniors as soon as he came. If he wanted to get the recognition of these people, he still needed to rely on himself.

“Zhou Yu, just try the role of Qin Feng in the bar when he went to Country T for the first time.”

Director Chen casually said a scene and did not give Zhou Yu the script to read again. First, he wanted to see how he could perform on the spot and whether his acting skills were good. Second, he wanted to see if he was familiar with the script.

“Okay.”

Zhou Yu nodded, and a staff member prepared a stool for Zhou Yu, which was equivalent to a sofa in a bar.

There was nothing on the scene, and it all depended on Zhou Yu’s mental images and non-physical performance.

This scene was not important, the only test was Qin Feng’s reaction after he came to a strange environment alone.

In the room, Director Chen and the others also quieted down, watching Zhou Yu sitting on the stool, slightly restrained, but curiously looking around, and they were quite satisfied.

Wang Qiang and the others did not expect that Zhou Yu would get into the role so quickly, and looking at the control of his expression and movements, it was obvious that he had put a lot of effort into his performance.

“This guy still has something on him.”

From Zhou Yu’s current state, it can be seen that he has a foundation in acting.

In this scene, Qin Feng did not have any lines, and many emotional expressions needed to be expressed through eyes and body movements. Zhou Yu’s expression was very good, showing the restraint and vigilance of arriving in a strange place for the first time, as well as the curiosity of the new environment.

Wang Qiang and the others were a little surprised at Zhou Yu’s acting skills. This guy is not just a two-brush.

Zhou Yu directly performed a non-material cup exchange, and exchanged the cup that Tang Ren drugged him in the plot, and ended up drinking Tang Ren’s cup, which was even stronger. Then Zhou Yu stood up, and the state of being dazed and high as if drunk instantly emerged.

Looking at Zhou Yu’s expression, he seemed to be drunk but not drunk, happy and crazy, which shocked Director Chen and the others.

Several people looked at each other, and they could see the shock in each other’s eyes.

“Okay! OK! Haha, Director Yu really didn’t praise you in vain, Xiao Zhou, your acting skills are good, have you learned acting privately?”

Director Chen directly called a halt, and the smile on his face, as if he had found a treasure, was hard to hide. This time, he was indeed more attracted to Zhou Yu, who was recommended to him by Jiang Dan, but he was worried that Zhou Yu’s acting skills were not good and would ruin his movie. But now, after watching Zhou Yu’s performance, there is no problem at all.

He finally understood. When he was chatting with Old Yu and asked him about Zhou Yu’s acting skills, the guy kept it a secret and told him to watch it himself. It turned out that there was such a surprise. Zhou Yu’s performance without props was not inferior to those professional actors at all.

Zhou Yu smiled and nodded: “I have learned a little.”

Wang Qiang and the others now really have a new look at Zhou Yu. Not only is he handsome and good at music, but he also has no problem with his acting skills. They seem to see something different from those young actors in Zhou Yu.

“Xiao Zhou, you are in good shape now. I feel relieved to act with you, haha.”

Teacher Wang Qiang and the others were not at all arrogant and looked down on Zhou Yu. In the entertainment industry, especially in the eyes of real actors like them, there are not so many twists and turns. Everything is convinced by acting. And Zhou Yu is

He is so young, not only has such a high talent in music, but also has good acting skills. If he practices more, he may be able to win awards such as the best actor in the future.

They originally liked to listen to some of Zhou Yu’s songs. Now they see that Zhou Yu is different from those vase traffic. He is a person with real skills, which adds a lot of points to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu answered modestly: “No, no, I still need to learn more from you teachers.”

Teacher Chen Ming next to him also spoke: “Hey, learn from each other, let’s learn from each other, and I think you are very talented in acting, Xiao Zhou.”

He touched his slightly fat belly and sighed: “Xiao Zhou, you are so talented in music, and I didn’t expect that your acting skills are so good.”

Director Chen was also very happy. Zhou Yu has good acting skills, high popularity and traffic. This is the young actor he wants.

“Okay, stop chasing each other here. The role of Qin Feng is yours, Zhou Yu. I’ll have someone prepare the contract right away.”

“I’ll treat you at noon later. It just so happens that the crew and actors are all here today. Let’s have a good get-together. We’ll be going abroad to film at the end of the month.”
