Chapter 39 Chapter 39 Works
When Xu Xian first entered the entertainment industry, a company wanted to sign him, and he had already imagined a bright future.
He humbly thought that even if he couldn't become a top star, being a second- or third-tier artist was also very good.
Fans, honor, and money are all at your fingertips.
Xu Xian even thought about the possibility that he would not become famous and would remain an unknown figure in the entertainment industry after working for ten or eight years.
But he never expected that the company would go bankrupt before the contract was signed.
I heard that the boss was admitted to the hospital and became mentally ill.
In the entertainment industry today, not only are the artists under great pressure and prone to depression, but even the bosses are like this?
How terrible this circle is.
For a moment, Xu Xian thought, maybe he could just find a class to attend and stop hanging around in the entertainment industry.
But the next second, he overturned this idea himself.
I haven't even entered the circle yet, so I can't just quit like this.
So Xu Xian decided to give it another try.
As for how to try it, he has no idea yet. He needs to think about it again. Otherwise, he can just continue to be an extra for a few more years?
But it’s not easy to find a job as an extra.
I go out early and come back late, earning eighty or a hundred dollars a day. When will this end?
Xu Xian finished work at ten o'clock again one evening. When he returned to where he was, it was almost 12 o'clock.
He had been acting as a corpse all day and someone accidentally stepped on his foot, leaving his face on the ground. Some uncivilized person actually spat there. He couldn't help but dry-heaved for a long time.
It’s true, there is no such thing as the unluckiest day, only more unlucky days.
Xu Xian, dressed in a dishevel, went upstairs and let the delivery guy who was coming down pass.
I don’t know which night owl is still awake at this time and orders takeout.
Xu Xian sniffed, trying to smell what the happy neighbor was eating for midnight snack.
He dragged his feet and went up the stairs step by step, walking weakly and silently.
When he reached the fourth floor, he heard someone opening the door.
He raised his head slightly and saw that the door of Room 402 facing the stairs was opened.
There was a bag of takeout hanging on the door handle, which must have been delivered by the delivery guy just now.
Xu Xian was daydreaming about what the other party had ordered when he saw the bag of takeout being lifted up out of thin air.
It was like an invisible hand was about to take the takeaway away.
Then, for some unknown reason, the "hand" suddenly stopped.
Xu Xian saw clearly that the takeaway bag returned to the door handle at a very slow speed.
Then the door knocked gently.
Xu Xian: “…”
Help! Is he dazzled? Or is he too sleepy and hallucinating?
Wen Yu was in the house, looking out through the peephole on the security door.
He really didn't hear Xu Xian's footsteps just now. It was really inconvenient to live in a rented house. Otherwise, why don't he ask his dear father to support him a little more?
Rent him a better house... Anyway, the price of gold is going up like crazy now, and the value of his gold bars has doubled.
In comparison, renting a better house is nothing for him.
Xu Xian froze on the stairs, not daring to move.
Maybe he should turn around and leave immediately?
There was a haunted incident in the film and television city recently, and even he, a new extra, heard about it.
Everyone is saying that people who have done something wrong should be careful, because that ghost in the film and television city only targets bad people.
If you have done something wrong, be careful about getting a knock on your door in the middle of the night.
Thinking of this, Xu Xian was suddenly not afraid anymore.
He is a nobody with no money and no job, so he doesn't even have the opportunity to do anything bad.
This ghost will never come to find him no matter who he is.
"Ha, ha ha, it must be because it's too late and I'm too sleepy. I'm dizzy."
Xu Xian comforted himself, slowly moved back to his room, and fell asleep.
He had nowhere to go except going home to sleep... Go to sleep, go to sleep, you can dream about anything!
Xu Xian had no work the next day and he was really bored staying at home.
Seeing Ying Tianrui at home, he simply dropped by and chatted with Ying Tianrui.
Ying Tianrui is essentially a passionate person. He said: "Our small crew has just finished work. If you are willing, you can come when we have work in the future. Our crew is really very small, just like shooting a web movie."
Xu Xian was immediately happy: "It's okay, thank you brother. I don't choose jobs. I'll do any job I can. Not to mention web dramas, short plays are fine!"
He is not in a situation where he can choose his job.
After finishing the filming of the movie, Ying Tianrui, unlike other actors, did not finish his work.
Ding Rong and Ying Tianrui were the directors of this film, so both of them participated in the post-production editing and production.
It’s a small crew and a small team, so everything is easy to communicate and discuss.
Ying Tianrui has learned a lot during the time he followed Ding Rong. Ding Rong is also young, but his experience is much richer than Ying Tianrui's.
He has his own independently completed works and has a very clear understanding of the entire process of being a director.
Although the works produced may not be known to anyone at all.
But directors like Ding Rong are the most numerous in the entire circle.
Anonymous.
They may work their entire lives and still no one may have heard of their names, and they may not produce a representative work known to the public.
Ying Tianrui worked with Ding Rong and was praised by him several times.
Of course, I was constantly asked how they achieved that “ghost” effect.
Ying Tianrui would say whatever he wanted to say about other things, but when asked about anything related to "ghosts", he turned into a saw-mouthed gourd.
It’s a business secret and I can’t tell you. The contract states that this is a confidential project.
Ding Rong was really curious, he really wanted to know how this film was taken.
He also watched the content shot by Ying Tianrui, and it was not a post-production effect at all.
"You guys didn't really go find a ghost to film this?"
Ding Rong could no longer think of any other possibility.
Ying Tianrui: "... maybe it's really a ghost. Isn't it said that money makes the devil work? Maybe he wants to be the best actor."
Ding Rong was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter at this dry humor.
"Your idea is quite interesting. If it's true, maybe one day he can win an award. After all, he plays himself, so he will definitely be a big hit."
Ying Tianrui: Do you think I can laugh?
As a ghost movie, there is no need for post-production of special effects for the "ghosts", so the film was completed very quickly.
After three weeks, Ying Tianrui and the others don’t have to worry about the rest.
Just wait for it to be broadcast on the platform.
It was not until the end of this hot summer that Wenyu and his team finally saw the finished products of their work on the platform.
On the day of the launch, an advertising space was provided on the platform’s homepage. As long as the platform’s users opened the app, they could basically see the cover poster of “When I Moved into a Haunted House”.
People who are interested in horror and ghost movies will click in to take a look when they see one.
After the film was released, the first people to click in and watch it were the fans on the short video. They did not miss the trailers and advertisements that Ying Tianrui posted on his account.
Anyway, you can watch it if you have VIP membership. Whether it’s good or not, just come and join in the fun.
When you click on the video, you will see a beautiful woman with long legs getting out of a taxi.
That gorgeous and natural appearance makes the whole picture brighter when she appears.
The appearance of the beautiful woman seemed to be in line with the style of the Internet movie. The audience did not exit the movie immediately, and unknowingly finished watching the nearly one and a half hour movie.
At the end of the story, the past of the beautiful heroine is revealed.
She had a boyfriend whom she loved very much, but he died in an accident.
This also seems to provide an explanation for the setting of ghosts in the movie. Maybe there are no real ghosts, but just an illusion that the heroine deceives herself.
Of course, Ying Tianrui wrote this setting in order to pass the review.
With this setting of the heroine, encountering a ghost can be interpreted as a fantasy. Of course, it can also be viewed as two separate things.
Anyway, for audiences who want to watch ghost movies, as long as the characters don’t say that ghosts are fake, they will believe that ghosts are real.
It can also be seen from the comments of the audience after watching the show that the audience is satisfied with the ending.
[Okay, okay, I can totally accept this ending. It can pass the review and it doesn’t affect the viewing experience.]
[I had already watched the video clips and thought it would be a bit boring, but I didn't expect it to be at all. The picture quality and shooting techniques are completely different from short videos, and it's not even the usual style of online movies. It has the texture of a big screen movie. Although the story is not too original, the special effects are really well done. Five stars! ]
[Nothing more to say, the heroine is beautiful, a natural beauty with a strong and charming appearance, and there is no substitute for the young generation of domestic entertainment. ]
[I love Brother Gui, he is so elegant, so elegant. ]
[This is not a horror movie, it is clearly a love movie. I cried twice, and cried very loudly.]
…
Wen Yu and his team had already watched the film after it was edited.
However, when the first work was officially released, they still sat together and watched it with a sense of ceremony.
Those who watched the film included Wen Yu and his two companions, as well as Sun Xifei, Min Xuanguang and Xu Chen.
Wenyu’s small rented apartment was packed with people, all gathered around Wenyu’s tablet computer.
After watching for a while, Ying Tianrui felt that he couldn't see clearly, so he went to get his computer.
It’s finally better to have two devices playing simultaneously. At least everyone doesn’t have to put their heads together in front of the tablet.
Wen Yu thought it was good after reading it, and happily invited his father to appreciate his "masterpiece".
In the evening, Wen Huaren called his son.
"Xiao Yu, Dad is very touched. You have finally made a name for yourself. It would be even better if you could show up next time."
He was really a little touched that his son had been in the entertainment industry for three years and finally got to play the leading role.
Although he is the male lead in a small crew.
But he is also the male protagonist.
Wen Yu was also a little excited and said, "Dad, don't worry, this is just the beginning. I will work harder in the future. One day I will be able to invite you to the cinema to watch a movie I starred in!"
Wen Huaren nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll wait. When the time comes, I'll invite everyone in the village to watch it. Dad's face depends entirely on you."
In a conversation between a loving father and a filial son, Wen Huaren suddenly said at the end: "I see that you are really ready to become an actor now. It is not convenient for you to rent a house outside all the time. Dad will buy you a house. You can go and look for the community and the house yourself, and I will pay for you."
Wenyu had previously thought that this place was inconvenient and wanted to move to another house.
"Dad, Dad, you are such a good dad to me!"
He is so happy.
Wen Huaren also told the truth: "House prices have dropped in the past two years, and gold prices have risen. Buying this house for you is like money falling from the sky."
The true truth.
No matter what, Wenyu will soon have a house.
After getting his father's approval, Wen Yu immediately started searching for a house near the film and television city without saying a word.
His requirements for the house do not require it to be luxurious or very good. Considering his current physical condition, as long as it has a little privacy, it will be fine.
It would be best if it was closer to here.
