Shenhao who plays around the world

Chapter 169 Choice is greater than effort

When Lin Shen came back, he happened to meet Reba and Yang Mi enjoying the shade in the yard and drinking afternoon tea.

"Reba is here."

Lin Shen greeted with a smile.

"Hello, Director Lin."

Reba's ears felt hot. Thinking of what Yang Mi said, she didn't dare to look at Lin Shen.

"I'm going to change clothes first, and you guys can chat first."

Lin Shen didn't care and walked straight into the villa.

"How are you thinking about it?"

When Yang Mi saw Lin Shen walking away, she smiled and poked Reba with her arm: "Don't miss this opportunity."

"Sister Mi, I..."

Reba felt quite confused.

Speaking of Lin Shen, it is true that everything is not too to her liking.

But this is Yang Mi's man, and there are many Yingying Yanyan around him.

If possible, who wouldn't want to find a man who will pamper him alone?

But just like Yang Mi said.

It’s really hard for actresses in their circle to find suitable husbands.

Those outside the circle have no common language and cannot accept their cuddling and kissing.

To put it nicely, that is called dedication to art.

It was fine at first, maybe we could still treat each other as guests.

But as time goes by, there will definitely be arguments.

If you find someone in the circle, you will be more tempted.

The girls I work with often pounce on those male stars.

Even if it's the first time, the other party can resist the temptation.

But what about ten times or a hundred times?

As for finding an ordinary person, it is even more nonsense.

Each of them is worth over 100 million, how can they find an ordinary man.

Therefore, many fans are speechless.

It's obvious that all these actresses are in such good condition, so why are they all just useless?

Or, they are all scumbags who are stepping on N boats.

You can call them scumbags, at least they have works, resources, or backers.

But there are none of these.

He only has a handsome face that has undergone plastic surgery and is praised by a bunch of idiot fans.

…

After dinner in the evening, Lin Shen walked with Yang Mi.

Reba followed behind, looking worried all the way.

Lin Shen saw it and didn't ask any more questions.

He is Reba's boss, not her husband.

Seeing Lin Shen hugging Yang Mi, the two were talking and laughing sweetly.

Reba's heart was touched.

Isn't Sister Mi's current life something she yearns for and envies?

When the walk is over, return home.

As the couple are getting older, it is more convenient to live on the first floor.

Lin Shen and the others live on the third floor, and the master bedroom suite is a hundred square meters, which is so large that it is luxurious.

The second floor is where guests stay.

The nanny at home has already tidied up the room.

After setting up Reba, Lin Shen took Yang Mi back to the room to rest.

Before Yang Mi left, she quietly winked at Reba.

Reba also nodded slightly in response.

During the whole process, Lin Shen didn't notice it at all.

…

It was just dawn, and Reba slept soundly.

The fatigue and pretense of the past were completely put aside at this moment, and my weak side was fully revealed.

Lin Shen touched his nose.

I remembered that Zhong Xia told herself two days ago not to eat Reba.

After all, he couldn't hold it back!

It's not his fault. Who would have thought that he would be plotted by Yang Mi.

By the time it was discovered, the early emotions had already been brewing.

"woke up?"

Lin Shen raised his eyebrows and noticed Reba's eyelids twitching.

"Um……"

Seeing that she could no longer pretend, Reba had no choice but to open her beautiful eyes and look at the man in front of her shyly.

"Is this all arranged by Mimi?"

Lin Shen really wanted to drag Yang Mi over and beat her up, which would only cause trouble for him.

"It's not my fault, Sister Mi. I wanted to do this myself."

Reba thought Lin Shen was feeling uncomfortable, so she quickly put in a good word for Yang Mi.

If she hadn't had this idea herself, no matter what Yang Mi said, it would have been impossible for her to recommend herself as a pillow.

Tell me, as long as I am within my ability, I can satisfy you."

Lin Shen didn't bother to guess the woman's thoughts, so he just made it clear.

In the final analysis, this matter is something that the two of them are not honest about.

Reba came running towards them.

After being fooled by Yang Mi, the person was eaten dry and wiped clean.

There has to be some benefit.

"I want to make a drama with you."

Reba's eyes lit up and she said without hesitation.

"Uh...can you change it to another one?"

"No, I want this."

Reba is not stupid.

If the two of them were filming a drama, they would have to be together for two or three months, right?

During this period, she didn't believe that she couldn't defeat Lin Shen.

"What type?"

Lin Shen wanted to refuse, but when he saw Reba crying if she didn't agree, he sighed.

"Xianxia Ancient Puppet Show!"

Reba instantly shed her tears and gave the answer without hesitation.

"How obsessed are you with the ancient heroes and heroes?"

Lin Shen couldn't laugh or cry.

"Just act with me~"

Reba's coquettish skills are not much weaker than Yang Mi's.

"Then let's make an agreement first. It's up to me to choose what to perform. The time shouldn't be too long."

Lin Shen sighed, who said he couldn't control it.

But in that situation, what man can't resist?

"It's all up to you."

Reba immediately responded obediently.

Lin Shen took the mobile phone and dialed Zhong Xia's number: "Mr. Zhong, the "Canglan Jue" project in your hand is ready for approval."

"Okay, I don't know who you plan to give the starring role?"

As Zhong Xia spoke, he took out the folder of "The Art of Blue Orchid" from the drawer.

"Reba and I act together. What's the budget for this show?"

"Your bid budget is 150 million."

Zhong Xia was also very surprised and suddenly had a bad feeling.

He knows very well the virtues of his boss.

…

After hanging up the phone, Reba's eyes turned into crescent moons as she smiled.

Lin Shen's embarrassed look just now was so cute.

Seeing that Lin Shen's face was turning darker, Reba quickly stopped.

She hasn't had a good rest yet, but she can't withstand someone's torture.

"By the way, what kind of drama is Cang Lan Jue?"

"Well, it's the same author as Yu Shark, which you played in."

Reba was also a little embarrassed when she heard Lin Shen mention the story of Yu Yu.

This drama was played to the point of collapse by Youku at the time.

Normally, it would be over after more than thirty episodes, but Youku worked hard and divided it into two seasons. As a result, the taste collapsed and the score was as low as 5.8 points.

Speaking of Cang Lan Jue, it can be regarded as one of the best ancient puppet plays of immortals and knights in recent years.

Despite the overwhelming consensus, it still managed to score 7.9 points, which is definitely not low.

Anyway, in Lin Shen's eyes, it might be better if Reba plays the heroine Xiao Lanhua.

How to say, after many years of hard work.

Reba's acting skills cannot be said to be very good, at least they are close to excellent level.

In some dramas, even the best actress has to kneel down.

In the early years, Reba gained a lot of fans thanks to her role as Feng Jiu in Three Lives Three Lives, and she began to become popular.

The character Xiao Lanhua is somewhat similar to Feng Jiu.

Even if Reba's acting skills are too good to stretch her hips, wouldn't he still be there?

The male protagonist Dongfang Qingcang has a strong character and his absolute strength can crush everything.

Unlike other male protagonists who were inexplicably poisoned, vomited blood, lost all their skills, and completely lacked the "strength" that they had previously touted.

The male protagonist has a mouth, and there are countless second and third female protagonists around him. He will explain everything when things happen, and he has an unconditional preference for the female protagonist.

This drama is popular because of its excellent production and online plot.

It's not like the bloody scenes in previous dramas, which simply insult the audience's intelligence.

As for the 400 million special effects that many fans of this show are claiming, that's pure nonsense.

There are 59 episodes of Liuli and 36 episodes of Canglan Jue.

The shooting period of Liuli is more than 180 days, and the shooting period of Canglanjue is just over 100 days.

The size of Liuli's production team is much larger than that of Canlan Jue.

No matter how much money is spent on special effects, there are no real-life transitions. The tents are constantly being built and demolished, and traveling long distances is a waste of money.

Cang Lan Jue only has scenes in the human world, with more real-life filming.

Of course, the male and female protagonists of Canglan Jue are not top-notch celebrities, and the pay is very cheap, so they have a large budget to put into special effects to present exquisite pictures.

Even so, the production cost of colored glaze is only 200 million.

By analogy, the production cost of Canglan Jue is only 150 million.

Publicity costs are another matter and should not be confused with each other.

The so-called 400 million special effects is just a gimmick.

Lin Shen exchanged the script for Zhong Xia, so he naturally remembers it deeply.

Just describing the character of the heroine Xiao Lanhua made Reba have the urge to act.

The character design of Little Orchid is particularly lovable, very brave, daring to fight for her own life, and daring to fight for her own love.

Lin Shen is not worried at all about his acting skills.

Although Wang Hedi's performance is good, his acting skills have improved a lot compared to the infamous "Meeting the Dragon" before.

But some details are still far from perfect.

For example, two people swap bodies in the play.

After the change, Wang Hedi's paralyzed face also returned because he really didn't know how to convey emotions with his eyes.

A good actor must use his eyes to convey the emotions he wants to express to the audience.

The veteran actor is strong, and that’s where his strength lies.

At present, the requirements for young actors are relatively low. As long as they have a handsome appearance, their body language is in sync with the character, they are not embarrassed, they don't stare, and they "can cry", they are considered to be at a medium to upper level of acting.

For this latitude, Wang Hedi's acting skills are obviously impeccable, even exceeding public expectations.

But if you really want to praise how great his acting skills are, only some idiot fans would be so stubborn.

Even he himself knows full well that it's just a good drama.

If there were other male artists with online acting skills, they would still not be much worse than him. At most, their temperament would be different, so they might not be that suitable.

However, there is one thing.

The show's service is too spicy.

The special effects are great, and the props used by the protagonists are ridiculously cheap.

The reason is simple: not enough money.

For a drama with a production cost of only 150 million yuan, deliberately not choosing traffic, special effects that are very careful, and artistic effects that are also great, Fu Hua Dao is bound to cut the budget.

Lin Shen is not worried about losing money.

I called Zhong Xia again and asked her to increase the budget of this drama to 300 million.

Originally, that drama could have scored close to 8 points.

Now the production budget has doubled, and the leading actors and actresses have become him and Reba.

I'd give it 8.5 points. Isn't that too much?

This is equivalent to Lin Shen using less than 75 million to make a major production with a rating of over 8.5!

This drama originally had some excessive details and rough handling.

To a large extent, this is also due to insufficient production budget.

Now?

The investment of 300 million yuan, the real-life shooting, and the special effects scenes are all worth it!

The few editors employed by the company only need to slightly polish and adjust some details based on the original script to make the whole drama more complete.

The final film after editing is almost 40 episodes.

The director must also be from his own company.

It just so happens that what Zhu Rui is best at is this kind of fairy tale and ancient puppet themes.

From project establishment to assembly, Forestry Pictures has fully demonstrated the momentum of a large company.

When the investment budget of 300 million yuan was released, actresses in the industry who smelled the fishy smell immediately started to recommend themselves, hoping to see if there was a chance to win the favor of Forestry Pictures.

Projects of this level are properly S-level productions on all major platforms.

Reba switched jobs to Forest Film and also lost two endorsement deals from Goose Factory.

Youku was also very willing to use Reba as the heroine before, and now she will naturally choose other Xiaohua as a replacement.

Reba has already prepared for all this.

But she believed in Sister Mi's vision and believed that the man she chose would not let her down.

Over the past year or so, Forest Pictures has also relied on its financial capabilities to recruit a large number of talents.

Coupled with internal training, it is no problem to start multiple crews at the same time.

Among the domestic entertainment film and television companies, Forestry Pictures is definitely considered top-notch.

Its photographers, lighting engineers, prop artists, makeup artists and other talents are springing up like mushrooms after a rain.

Before filming, Lin Shen and Reba filmed a commercial.

Like Yang Mi, Reba also enjoyed Lin Shen's special care.

All of a sudden, the body function returned to that of an 18-year-old.

Closures, acne, pimples, and nasolabial folds on both sides of the skin have all disappeared.

As we all know, raw photos and retouched photos of female stars are completely different things.

As she gets older, Reba also has this trouble.

Now, how can we not be overjoyed to suddenly have the physical functions of an 18-year-old?

Lin Shen also thought of a way to fool them, that is, if the Artistry mask is used for a long time, this special situation may occur, but the chance is not high.

Dong Zhao was also very skilled and specially hired Lin Shen.

What kind of splash can just having Reba as a spokesperson cause?

When it comes to the person with the most commercial value at the moment, all brands will name Lin Shen without hesitation.

Dong Zhaoxiao's love is also the most difficult tough battle for him since he took office.

Coupled with Reba's persuasion, Lin Shen agreed.

It was not difficult to shoot commercials, but there was something wrong with the way Reba looked at Lin Shen.

The gain and loss are all from my own family.

Zhu Rui was also invited to shoot an advertisement, so she simply said, "Reba, your eyes are a bit too obvious. I'm afraid you will be scolded after it is broadcast."

"Director Zhu, I'm sorry."

Reba naturally understood what was going on.

Even the sheets have been rolled over, it would be strange to say that his eyes are not stringy.

In order to avoid being scolded after the commercial aired, Reba still tried her best to appear polite to Lin Shen.

Fortunately, advertising itself is not difficult.

Reba has rich experience and has been shooting commercials in recent years.

Lin Shen's acting skills are online, giving Zhu Rui the effect he wants.

The efficient cooperation between the two also made Zhu Rui not too satisfied.

The reason why he was willing to help was because he wanted to see how his boss felt about Reba.

Look at this situation, there is no need to adjust, it is simply a love affair.

Dong Zhao saw the finished film and couldn't wait to hand it over to the Propaganda Department.

The sum of Lin Shen and Reba is definitely 1+1>2!

When Huiyuan officially announced the identities of the two spokespersons, a large number of fans immediately gathered to watch.

"666, after waiting for so long, I finally saw Director Lin open for business, and it was an advertisement for his company~!"

"Reba and Director Lin match well!"

"Please, if I were so handsome, I could match anyone. Handsome guys and beauties, it would be weird if they don't match each other."

"Just now Forest Pictures officially announced that the male lead of this drama is Director Lin. It's so awesome!"

"Haha, I guess Mr. Zhong spent a lot of effort to convince Director Lin to agree to star."

"That's right. I watched the last movie, Lin Yingjun, which made me flirt with little deer. I've watched it three times and I haven't seen the new one yet. I'm so anxious."
