Chapter 75 The Seventy-fifth Melon Movie Official Announcement
Xu Qingye spoke the words of a scumbag while his eyes were fixed on Chen Que on the screen. Because of the moisture on his body, the clothes he put on stuck tightly to his skin, making him more attractive than before when he was wearing nothing at all. The outline of his muscles was faintly visible, making people want to tear off his clothes to find out.
Xu Qingye was so engrossed in watching that the images in his mind began to develop in an uncontrollable direction.
Shen Que glanced at Xu Qingye and saw that he was a little dazed, so he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of the display screen.
"You don't like watching it, so why are you still in a daze?"
"I'm thinking about the philosophy of life." Xu Qingye still stared intently, but his expression was calm.
"Thinking about what?"
"Plato said that the human mind is composed of three parts: reason, desire, and passion. I'm wondering why I'm perfectly rational when you're naked, but my desires surge when you're dressed. You're a philosopher, so please analyze this for me."
Xu Qingye asked seriously, and Shen Que was silent for a long time, not knowing how to answer.
"I'll discuss this with you when I get back." Shen Que tugged at his clothes, which were a little damp and he would have to change into another set soon.
"By the way, the movie will be officially announced tomorrow, and there will be a launch ceremony in a few days. The media will be invited to the filming. Do you want to come? If you do, I'll send you an invitation by express mail."
"Someone sensible enough has already sent me the order number instead of asking me if I want it."
Xu Qingye narrowed his eyes. If he went to the opening ceremony, wouldn't he be able to meet her a few days in advance? He would have work to do and could meet her at the same time, which was very cost-effective.
"I understand. I'll send you the courier number tomorrow morning." Shen Que nodded, reflected on himself, and decided not to ask such a question again next time.
The two chatted for a while, and Xu Qingye yawned a little before he ended the video. After the video was turned off, the two chatted for a long time on type, all about boring topics.
The next day, Honor Pictures officially announced its latest film, Breaking Dawn, and released a poster in addition to the cast.
"Dawn" is an anti-drug film directed by the famous director Xin Yan. The male lead is Ruan Shucheng, who just won the Best Actor award in the previous session, and the rest of the cast is also top-notch.
In the released posters, each character is standing in different light and shadow, which seems to foreshadow their different camps, while some people are at the intersection, with half of their faces in the light and half in the shadow, indicating that their identities are not so simple.
In the poster, Shen Que's screen space is very small. This time he plays an undercover role. He is a completely low-level nobody in the show, but his story line is complete.
Xu Cheng was originally just an ordinary policeman at the border. An unexpected incident made him an undercover agent, but the undercover mission was delayed and his superiors also lost contact. Instead of waiting for the news of success, he witnessed the death of his girlfriend during an operation. He began to struggle and questioned his beliefs, and gradually grew into a small leader in the drug trafficking group.
During an operation, someone recognized him. When he heard someone he hadn't seen for a long time calling out his real name, he subconsciously wanted to kill the other person, but in the end he chose to help them.
The character of Xu Cheng is very conflicted. He is not completely good, nor completely bad, and ultimately dies before dawn.
In the poster, most of Shen Que's body is in the shadows, with only a small part of his profile in the light. His eyes are looking towards the light. He longs for light, but is sinking deeper and deeper into the quagmire.
In the poster, Shen Que has a buzz cut, dark skin and a ruffian-like look, which is very different from his real self. If his name was not written on the poster, many people would not have recognized him.
Xu Qingye stared at the poster for a long time. Shen Que's styling was a big breakthrough. No wonder he swept the newcomer awards with this role. He portrayed the character's struggle with just one poster.
Xu Qingye immediately followed the procedure and started praising, while monitoring all kinds of negative comments and suppressing all that he saw.
It's natural that some people would question his appearance in a drama with such a configuration. After all, many people have said before that Shen is a resourceful person. Now that he has joined a big-budget movie right after his debut, such voices are naturally even louder.
Previously, these were just minor fights involving passers-by, but this time, it was obvious that the rival company had started to take precautions, and Xu Qingye saw a lot of brainwashing soft articles.
With the rise of resource-rich people, what is the future of Chinese films?
Capital Manipulation: Where is the Credibility of Awards?
There are many articles like this that are cryptic. In addition, several big marketing accounts have also been affected. The words used by the marketing accounts are much more straightforward and unpleasant.
Godfather of Guaquan: Where on earth did this Chen Que come from? He has such great resources when he debuted, and so many bigwigs are protecting him. Does anyone know what his background is?
Domestic Entertainment Group: It’s not surprising that Shen Que can star in this drama since he has already signed with Huihuang Film and Television. The drama is originally about promoting one’s own people. But I think it is not the right decision to put him in a crew with so many talented actors. He will only be crushed by the acting skills of his predecessors. I hope that Shen Que will not affect the reputation of the drama.
…
Xu Qingye looked at these marketing accounts. Cursing at them was useless but very satisfying. Xu Qingye created a new account and argued with them for a long time. When he had cursed enough, he simply cancelled his account.
These remarks actually have little impact on Shen Que, but they will affect the impression of passers-by fans on Shen Que. Xu Qingye wrote a very long poster analysis, analyzing all the actors and praising them in all aspects. He directly posted a long Weibo using his main account.
The entertainment industry’s number one whistleblower: No more gossip today, let’s talk about movies.
Xu Qingye added a long picture and wrote down all his analyses on it. There was a lot more text about Shen Que. He focused on writing about Shen Que's various subtle expressions and added some relatively emotional analysis. The others were much more objective.
After posting the long article, Xu Qingye gave Shen Que another thumbs up. Anyway, it was no secret that this account liked Shen Que very much.
In fact, there is no need to deliberately deal with this kind of thing. After the movie is finished and everyone sees Shen Que's performance, everything will be proven. But now there is an opponent who has to take action to prevent the explosion, so we still need to take some action.
Xu Qingye thought about it and left a collection of Shen Que's acting highlights under each of Shen Que's posts.
Xu Qingye has many marketing account groups, and his water army quickly removed the negative reviews. He didn't do much else.
Cao Muan posted several accounts in the work group. These accounts were all used to hack her, but they were all smurfs and the identities of the other parties could not be locked.
Most of the things that happen to an actor are done by rival companies, and it is not entirely directed at him personally. They just don't want another talented actor to emerge from Glory Film and Television.
After the official announcement of the movie, the official Weibo released a set of makeup photos shortly afterwards, in addition to some special training footage.
Shen Que's figure is very attractive in the photo. He is not inferior to the veteran actors in momentum when standing together with them.
In the makeup photos released by the official blog, Shen Que looks righteous in his police uniform, which is somewhat different from the dark man in the poster, making people want to explore what happened to him.
The director is the absolute leader of the film, and many people rushed to the director's Weibo to question whether there was any shady dealings in his casting. Although no one was named, it was obvious that they were targeting Shen Que.
Director Xin Yan is a rather aloof person and rarely uses social networks.
Perhaps it was his assistant who reminded him of what happened online, and director Xin Yan posted a Weibo three days after the movie poster was released.
Xin Yan: I carefully select the casting of each role. If you have any questions, you can go to the cinema to find the answers.
After director Xin Yan posted on Weibo, he also followed all the leading actors. His meaning was very clear. He chose the actors himself and there was no shady dealings.
Xu Qingye looked at Director Xin Yan's Weibo and felt that the rumors had been refuted, which made him feel happy.
"What are you grinning about?"
When Yi He came back from outside, he saw Xu Qingye holding his cell phone and grinning foolishly. He casually handed him a cup of coffee.
"Just laughing." Xu Qingye took a sip of the coffee, then looked up at Yi He, who was wearing a well-tailored suit, and was stunned for a moment. "Have you changed your career to become a male model?"
"You just became a male model. I went to the company to sign a contract. Didn't I say that Su Shiyi should be the spokesperson? I mentioned it to my brother, and he told me to handle it myself. I'm just going through the process now."
Yi He felt helpless and went back home after finishing the work.
"The recent incident at Qingcheng Film and Television has caused such a big stir. What does Su Shiyi think?" Xu Qingye said "oh", and when he looked at Yi He, he found that he had some elite temperament.
"She didn't say anything, but before she left, she suddenly asked me if her story would have any impact on us if it were exposed. Did she also want to sue Qingcheng Film and Television?"
"How you answered her, your answer may have influenced her decision."
"I told her that our group has always been committed to protecting women and children. We have many charitable foundations that help people in need every year. If she needs help, our group can provide a professional team of lawyers and security to ensure her personal safety."
Yi He repeated what he and Su Shiyi had said, and Xu Qingye nodded.
"Then she's very likely to go head-to-head with Allure Films, so you should pay more attention."
"My brother and I inquired about it. Sun Yang of Qingcheng Film and Television has had several major projects stuck recently. He's been very busy lately, so he has no time to take care of Qingcheng Film and Television. If you really want to take action, do it now. Take advantage of his illness and kill him!"
Yi He asked his brother to pay more attention and notify him immediately if there were any changes.
"Why are you so positive?"
Xu Qingye narrowed his eyes and looked at Yi He with some suspicion.
"If Qingcheng Films goes bankrupt, there will definitely be a lot of assets that need to be sold. I'm planning to make some money. That building is nice. If they are willing to sell it, I would consider buying it."
"No, a one- or two-story building costs hundreds of millions. Qingcheng Film and Television has more than ten floors. How can you rich people talk so lightly?" Xu Qingye inquired about the surrounding housing prices and found that he couldn't even afford one floor.
"I'm not going to buy all of them. I'll definitely split them among a few companies. If I buy them all, I'll rent them to you at a low price. We have a good relationship after all." Yi He patted Xu Qingye's shoulder, as if to say, "I've got you covered."
Xu Qingye was silent for a long time, and became even more hostile to the rich!
