Save the Bachelor of Heaven

While Xiang Nan and Zhang Ziyi were busy filming "My Father and Mother", Xiang Nan's previous film "It's Okay to Have Fun" was officially released in May.

Although Xiang Nan only played a supporting role in it, all the roles added up, less than ten minutes, he is the third or fourth male.

But Zhiqing Studio published articles all over the place, advocating Xiang Nan's acting skills, the importance of roles, and his good popularity in the crew, making it seem like he was the protagonist.

Relying on the 1990s, the entertainment industry is still not hyped. People like Feng Gong, Ding Jiali, Li Mingqi, Wang Jinsong and others just filmed honestly and did not know how to publicize after filming, so Xiang Nan easily picked the fruits of victory.

"Let's go and watch "It's All About It" starring Yuan Hua~"

"Although he didn't make many appearances, he performed really well. The phrase 'I'm about to die of aggrieved' really spoke from my heart."

"Yuan Hua's acting skills are really good. I think he is the best actor in the movie. You can read newspapers and magazines and praise him~"

The ordinary people all talked about it.

Gustave Le Pen, a well-known French social psychologist, mentioned in his classic book "The Crowd" that the public has no ability to distinguish and cannot judge the authenticity of things, so they are superstitious about authority. Many opinions that cannot withstand scrutiny can easily be generally agreed!

Zhiqing Studio is now using public opinion to influence the public. In the 1990s, paper media such as newspapers and magazines were still very credible.

Moreover, unless the actor's acting skills are really bad, so bad that it makes people feel hot, ordinary people can't judge the level of acting skills.

Therefore, when public opinion generally brags about Xiang Nan's acting skills, his popularity, and his importance, the public will easily believe it.

...

In addition, Zhiqing Studio is still taking advantage of Zhang Yimou's enthusiasm, and makes a big fuss with Xiang Nan starring in "My Father and Mother".

"Zhang Yimou handpicked Xiang Nan as the leading actor, and new stars in the film industry are rising~"

"Xiang Nan became Gong Li's younger brother and starred in Zhang Yimou's new film."

"Xiang Nan's acting skills are affirmed by Zhang Yimou, not inferior to Berlin actor Ge You!"

Rainbow farts blowing fiercely, pulling, stepping and touching porcelain all at the same time. In less than two months, Xiang Nan has already been blown into the first-line acting school in China, enough to keep pace with Ge You, Gong Li, Wang Zhiwen, Chen Daoming and others.

Although people in the circle think it's exaggerated, ordinary people really don't understand it. Seeing that it was said in the newspapers, I couldn't help but believe it.

As a result, Xiang Nan's popularity, status, and popularity all soared.

In 1993, the film industry was reformed; in 1999, television production and broadcasting were separated, which opened a gap for private capital to enter the film and television industry.

A number of film and television companies with private backgrounds were established and began to invest in the production of films and TV series. And many of these bosses are laymen. They invest in making movies and TV series, and many of them are famous actors, so they can use whoever is popular.

In this way, Xiang Nan, who is now famous, well-known, and has acting skills, naturally became a favorite in their eyes.

All of a sudden, film appointments from all walks of life flocked in. Without Yan Yan submitting resumes everywhere, there are already so many film appointments that he can't finish filming in the next year.

...

"Don't be in a hurry to pick up the drama, first read the script, and then look at the lineup." Xiang Nan called to discuss with Yan Yan, "Now is the rising period of my career, accumulating fame is the most important thing, and I am not in a hurry to earn money."

He has a lot of ways to make money, and he really doesn't care about the filming salary. Besides, the salary is not high now, and it only costs 30,000 to 40,000 for an episode of TV.

And this number of episodes is not the number of episodes when it was broadcast, but the total number of episodes obtained by dividing the total time of actors' appearances in the edited version by the duration of each episode.

Therefore, in a 30-episode drama, Xiang Nan, as the main character, would get five to six hundred thousand yuan if he played half of the time. After excluding the taxes that need to be paid, you can earn only three to four hundred thousand.

As for a 30-episode TV series, even if the filming time is rushed, it will take two to three months. Therefore, to be honest, the price-performance ratio is not high, and Xiang Nan's willingness to play the role is naturally not strong.

Yan Huan nodded, "Okay, I will help you choose carefully."

"Yeah." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "Sister Yan, if you have a good opportunity, don't forget to give it to yourself. It would be a pity for you to be a manager."

"Okay, I see." Yan Yan smiled, "It's just you, and you still support my sister~"

...

At the end of June, "It's Okay to Steal Joy" was drawn, with a total box office of 13 million yuan. To be honest, it's not really high. In later generations, a similar lineup would probably be too little for one billion or two billion.

Even so, the movie was still a hit. Because its production cost is very low, less than three million yuan in total.

Adding in the royalties from sales to movie channels and overseas distribution, a rough estimate shows that Chang'an Film Studio has earned at least 6 million yuan, which is not bad.

And because the movie was on its way to release, it was Xiang Nan's strong marketing, all kinds of shameless boasting and bragging. Therefore, he, a small supporting role, took most of the credit for the huge profits of "It's Okay to Have Fun".

This kind of operation is very common in later generations. Many artists like to count the box office and TV ratings of their supporting roles and cameo movies in their own accounts, creating the illusion that they are box office celebrities and ratings experts.

However, in the 1990s, no one had done it like this. Xiang Nan was the first one, and the effect was really immediate!

After "It's Okay to Have Fun" became a big hit, more and more film appointments begged him to make movies. In comparison, the starring roles of Feng Gong, Ding Jiali, Li Mingqi and others, the film contracts are still the same as before, and even the film salary has not increased much. Where is the reasoning!

...

The filming of "My Father and Mother" started in February, and the shooting didn't finish until August.

During the six months, Xiang Nan went back to the capital four times in total, staying for three days to half a month each time.

In April, he went back once because Qiuya made a fuss about coming to see him on May 1st.

Naturally, Xiang Nan didn't want her to come to the dam, as soon as she came, what he said to Zhang Ziyi would go wrong again. So he went back to appease Qiu Ya, bought her a Passat, and finally coaxed her away.

In June, he went back the longest. That time it was for the final exam. Although in Xiangnan's second semester, he basically didn't attend a class. However, he passed the test easily through self-study.

In comparison, Li Bo, Cheng Bin, and Zhou Leming were in school every day, but they still failed two subjects at the end of the semester, which made them yell that it was unreasonable.

When Xiang Nan went back in July, he wanted to break up with Zhang Jingchu. He hasn't seen her many times this year, and his relationship has become very thin. That being the case, simply don't force it anymore.

Xiang Nan gave her 20,000 yuan in one go, and introduced her to the crew of "The Happy Life of Poor Zhang Damin", playing the role of her younger sister Zhang Daxue.

Zhang Jingchu not only got the money, but also got the opportunity to perform, and got a lot of benefits, so she broke up with Xiang Nan happily.

At the beginning of August, Xiang Nan went back again, mainly to invest in Huo Jianqi.
