50 Chapter 50
◎Nomination◎
The main reason is that the blogger's analysis on Weibo is so logical and well-founded that after reading it, people feel as if these things really happened.
As for the last note, other people might just see it as a joke or a deliberate tease, but in the eyes of the crew, everything made sense!
When the filming of their drama "Battle of Vientiane" started, Fu Haijing's relationship with Zhang Li inexplicably improved that day.
Halfway through the process, Zhang Li and Fu Haijing left the group to attend an announcement. Not long after, Wan Cheng's plan to invest in Suo Yun Entertainment appeared in everyone's eyes.
This time, after Zhang Li and Fu Haijing returned to the crew, Fu Haijing's attitude towards Zhang Li became surprisingly good.
It was Fu Haijing's attitude towards Zhang Li that made everyone feel incredible at the time.
Many people think that Zhang Li and Fu Haijing are good friends and are both "climbing up", but Fu Haijing seems to put Zhang Li first and feels that she is putting herself in a lower position.
They were confused at first, but after seeing this Weibo post, everything connected!
Maybe this is what is called "lady diplomacy"!
The relationship between Zhang Li and Wan Cheng has always been a topic of conversation among many people. Some people think that Zhang Li may be hooking up with the investor behind Wan Cheng, while others think that Wan Cheng's manager Wu Heng is supporting her.
There are many different opinions, but it is undeniable that the relationship between Zhang Li and Wan Cheng is definitely not ordinary. This can be seen from the fact that Wan Cheng spent 500 million to save Ling Man and specially set up a past studio for her. It can be seen how much the people behind Zhang Li dote on her.
For Zhang Li, Wan Cheng could spend 500 million to buy half of Lingman, and naturally he could also spend another 500 million to invest in Suo Yun Entertainment because of her words.
Then, Fu Haijing's attitude towards Zhang Li all along can be easily explained.
Perhaps on the first day of joining the crew, Fu Haijing was instructed by the president of Suo Yun Entertainment to make friends with Zhang Li.
The president of Suo Yun Entertainment encountered a crisis. He was afraid that Pei Yuanzhi and the Liu family would bribe Suo Yun's shareholders and seize his power, so he wanted to obtain Wancheng's investment.
Fu Haijing's "flattery" obviously worked for Zhang Li, so Zhang Li told the people behind her, and Wancheng really invested in Suo Yun. Because of this incident, Wancheng became Fu Haijing's new boss, or perhaps because of the benefit of this "matchmaking", Fu Haijing's attitude towards Zhang Li became more earnest.
Once one staff member sees it, naturally the second, third, and so on will see it.
"Oh my god! Five hundred million! Investing right away! Wancheng is so bold..."
"I feel like this might really be related to Zhang Li. Look at Fu Haijing's attitude right now..."
"No wonder I used to hear she was so aloof, but when she came to our show, she suddenly lowered her status. It turns out it was all because of Zhang Li."
"But I used to hear that Zhang Li was a bit of a diva, but now I realize she's actually quite nice and respectful. Fu Haijing has become a lot more down-to-earth as well."
"There was a rumor before that Zhang Li was forced to find a sponsor because she was banned by Pei Yuanzhi and the Liu family. In fact, with her looks and acting skills, if she wanted to be famous, she would have been famous long ago if she found a sponsor. She must have not wanted to find one before, but was forced into it. If she didn't find one, she would not be able to survive in the circle, so she found one. Alas, fate is so cruel!"
"Actually, I think as long as it doesn't destroy other people's families, and it's something that both parties agree on, there's nothing to blame."
Many staff members gossiped about it, and the news finally reached the director's ears.
Chen Lin actually had no interest in the actors' private lives, but since he was in contact with Wancheng and Suoyun Entertainment, he also heard a general idea.
Although his ideas are similar to others, he still has to show his attitude.
He ordered the crew to concentrate on their work and not to spread rumors, but the news still reached Zhang Li's ears.
When Zhang Li heard these remarks, he just thought they were a little funny, and then pretended that he knew nothing and continued to be busy with the filming of the crew and the fund matters.
Not only do the twins have a lot of scenes, but many of them also need to be re-shot. After all, she is alone, and a scene needs to be shot at least twice. Sometimes, if there is a NG for other reasons, she may need to perform it several times or even more than ten times. She is extremely serious and responsible when it comes to martial arts scenes and wire suspension.
However, she never complained about the hardship or tiredness, and never complained to anyone. Instead, her team and onlookers felt sorry for her hard work.
Gradually, because of her dedicated attitude, the entire crew subconsciously developed a respect for her and never talked about her behind her back again.
Chen Lin and Deng Xunlong didn't even know how many times they had praised her, both openly and secretly.
As time passed, the location shooting of "Battle of Vientiane" was completed, and the crew had already moved back to the film and television city in City A.
And the time has completely come to deep winter.
This was Zhang Li's last scene in "The Battle of Vientiane".
There was no air conditioning or floor heating on the set. In order to prevent the mist from their mouths from affecting the filming, all the actors had to act with ice cubes in their mouths.
When Zhang Li finished the last line, his entire mouth was numb from the cold.
"Cut! Pass!" As soon as the director finished speaking, Bai Wen and others hurried forward and took out a prop to make Zhang Li spit out the ice.
But no one around thought that Zhang Li was a so-called big shot.
"Congratulations to Teacher Zhang Li for successfully completing our drama!" The assistant director led the applause.
The applause around suddenly broke out like thunder.
Lead actors such as Fu Haijing and Deng Xunlong also came forward to hug Zhang Li.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
"Thanks for your hard work!……"
At least they had some time to relax, but Zhang Li finished her role as the older sister and immediately had to play the role of the younger sister, even holding a double portion of ice cubes.
Zhang Li rubbed his cheeks and said, "When the company has more money, I'll suggest that they build a film studio with an ice room and floor heating."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Everyone just thought she was joking.
The assistant director explained, "We have no other choice. Those new studios don't look like they fit the script, so we have to use this old one. And to avoid damaging the structure, the studio's investors won't allow air conditioning."
Of course Zhang Li was not complaining, he just sighed sincerely.
Although her scenes have been completed, others still have to continue acting.
Zhang Li thanked everyone and quickly walked out of the camera.
Looking at everyone busying around, Zhang Li, who was sitting nearby to rest, couldn't help but feel like he was just enjoying the flowers in a garden.
But before she could enjoy a moment of leisure, Cheng Yu hurried into the filming yard from the side door and walked towards her quickly.
Seeing her happy expression, Zhang Li knew that there was definitely no problem.
Sure enough, Cheng Yu asked Bai Wen to get Zhang Li's phone, "Look, this year's Baiwen Awards have announced the nominees! Ah Li, your Li Fei has been nominated for Best Supporting Actress!"
A single stone caused a thousand ripples, and naturally people around also heard the news.
The others also subconsciously followed Zhang Li's lead and searched the official page of the Baiwen TV Festival, where a list of nominees was freshly released.
Click on the picture to enlarge it and browse it, and you will see that Zhang Li's role as Concubine Li in "Legend of Li Wan" is listed behind the Best Supporting Actress Award.
Obviously, although "Legend of Li Wan" has not been broadcast yet, Zheng Wanying may have directly applied for this year's award in order to increase the popularity of the TV series in advance.
For a TV series to apply for a prize after only obtaining a license but not yet being aired is something that is basically impossible in Zhang Li's original world, but it is very reasonable in this world. Because of the setting, the award judges in this world are extremely fair and strict, and there is no need to consider other factors. As long as your performance is qualified and your work does not violate any regulations, you may win an award.
In the original book, Zheng Wanying also submitted her application at the end of this year.
After seeing the list, Zhang Li was not too surprised, but for others, it was completely different.
Being nominated for such an orthodox award means that you have stepped into the second-tier ranks.
Although Zhang Li's popularity has long surpassed the second-tier for various reasons, her fame is inflated because she has no works to support her.
Now that she has been nominated for this award, it means that she has secured her position in the second tier!
When Chen Lin, Fu Haijing and others heard the news, they asked the crew to pause and surrounded Zhang Li.
"Congratulations, Ali!"
"Congratulations!..."
Congratulations filled Zhang Li's surroundings.
"Thank you everyone." Zhang Li thanked again.
The fact that Zhang Li was nominated for the award naturally had an impact on "The Battle of Vientiane".
Before, the director only saw Zhang Li’s acting skills, but now that she has the reputation of a second-tier actress, bringing her in to promote the show before it airs will be another good bargaining chip.
Of course, this has a greater impact on Zhang Li himself.
With this reputation, more and better scripts will naturally come to her.
-
While the crew of "The Battle of Vientiane" was congratulating Zhang Li, the outside world was also bustling with excitement because of the nomination for the Hundred News Awards.
As one of the most famous awards in the country, some media have been paying close attention to the list.
Almost as soon as the list came out, before they had time to take a closer look, they downloaded the pictures and reposted them on major platforms.
They created the entry #Baiwen Awards nominations released#, which quickly attracted many netizens.
However, netizens’ focus is much more precise than that of the media.
They only took a quick glance at the list of award nominees and grasped the key points.
[Wow! Zheng Kaixin's "Blowing Clouds and Setting Sun" is finally nominated! ]
[This year's Best Actress competition seems quite intense! ]
[Wait… the Best Supporting Actress nominees? Zhang Li?! !]
[Oh my god! Zhang Li is nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Baiwen Awards?!]
[A while ago, during the fourth episode of Sing Out Loud, I was still complaining about how Zhang Li, an actress, didn't act and spent every day on a music variety show, yet she quietly got nominated for a Hundred News Awards?!]
[Zhang Li is awesome! ...]
There were also Zhang Li fans with extremely fast internet speeds who rushed over quickly.
Who said our Lili has only been in music variety shows? She's already been in three dramas, okay? If you don't know, don't talk nonsense!
[Ahhhhhh! Lili is nominated for the Baiwen Awards!!]
[Oh my god! I've been looking forward to this drama, and it hasn't even aired yet, and the nominees have already been announced!]
The official Hundred News Awards Weibo has released the list! Lili is indeed a finalist!
[Li Wan Chuanqi also posted on Weibo! Our Lili was nominated along with the female lead of this drama! I remember she and our Lili were very close! ...]
Cheng Yu knew that Zhang Li's nomination would definitely cause a stir, especially among fans, who would surely be full of anticipation.
In order to prevent them from having too high expectations now, and to avoid them being too disappointed if Zhang Li did not win the award, Cheng Yu notified Xu Fei and other fan leaders early on, and began to calm the atmosphere in the group, asking fans to be more rational, not to publicize everywhere, not to create entries, and not to comment or forward private messages to Zhang Li, so as not to put too much pressure on her.
Zhang Li's fans were accumulated gradually, and Cheng Yu didn't do any purification work, so most of them were rational.
After hearing what the fan leader said, they suppressed their excitement, but some little fans couldn't help but send private messages to Zhang Li in the background to tell her how much they liked her.
However, Li's fans did not make any noise, but netizens outside paid a lot of attention to Zhang Li.
The truth is that Zhang Li has been on the hot search countless times because of being banned, being spotted by Cheng Yu and signed to Lingman, and being suspected of having Wan Cheng as her backer, and her performance in singing loudly, but the fact that she has no works yet has also been criticized by many netizens.
This time she was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress at the Hundred News Awards, which inevitably surprised netizens.
If it was just this news, it would be fine, but on the same day, the official Weibo account of "Legend of Li Wan" directly announced that it would be aired on Xigua TV and its cooperating video platforms.
With the free publicity of both the female lead and the female supporting actress being nominated for the Hundred News Awards, the ratings of "Legend of Li Wan" soared as soon as it was aired.
That night, the drama was broadcast directly for three episodes, just in time for all the main characters from the early stages to appear.
The character of Concubine Li played by Zhang Li has a very clear identity from the very beginning.
Zheng Wanying chose Zhang Li to play the role of Concubine Li because she was "unafraid to take risks". When editing the film, she was even more reckless and directly highlighted Concubine Li's image.
She was gentle and tender in front of the emperor, but unpredictable and ruthless behind everyone's back. As soon as Concubine Li appeared on the stage, she immediately attracted the audience's attention.
[Is this really Zhang Li? How did she play such a bad character?]
[So fierce! My impression of Zhang Li is that he is still the mentor who sings loudly but is gentle to the contestants.]
[This gave me a two-faced feeling towards Zhang Li]
[Holy crap, is this Zhang Li's true strength? ...]
For those who watch the drama, most of them stand in the perspective of the protagonist, so when the drama was first broadcast, many people were not interested in Zhang Li.
Only some people who are obsessed with looks began to feel happy after seeing Zhang Li's appearance.
【Concubine Li is so beautiful! 】
[Even though he looks tough, it's not towards me. I have no resistance to real beautiful women prprpr]
[It doesn't matter if such a beautiful sister is a little bit bad! ...]
Some speeches began to make predictions.
[According to the general routine, characters like Concubine Li will basically be whitewashed in the end]
[A prediction: Concubine Li will play some emotional cards when she's offline...]
In short, the drama "Legend of Li Wan" became popular after it was broadcast.
At this time, Zhang Li was attending the wrap-up party arranged for her by the crew of "The Battle of Vientiane".
After tonight, Zhang Li will leave the crew completely. Although they are still in the same city, for those in the entertainment industry, it may take a long time before they meet again.
Director Chen Lin even specially asked people to take a group photo and posted it directly on the official Weibo of "Battle of Vientiane".
Maybe Zhang Li was in the spotlight today, especially with the new drama airing, and many people were keeping an eye on Zhang Li's movements.
Seeing that Zhang Li was tagged on Weibo, many netizens came over immediately.
[Oh my goodness, it turns out that the old drama started airing and the new drama wrapped up at the same time]
[What did Zhang Li play this time? ]
[I have a feeling that Zhang Li is going to become completely famous]
[Wow, I thought Zhang Li's acting range would be a bit limited, but I didn't expect the two dramas she starred in to have completely different styles: one is a palace drama, and the other is a martial arts drama?]
[Directed by Chen Lin? Zhang Li actually caught Chen Lin's eye, so the fighting scenes must be extraordinary...]
With the coordination of the new drama, many netizens have moved away from "The Legend of Li Wan".
It’s a pity that Zhang Li didn’t post any updates that night. She only reposted the promotional Weibo for "Legend of Li Wan" and the wrap-up Weibo for "Battle of Vientiane" in which she was tagged, and then there was no more news.
However, netizens did not care, because they knew that after this day, they would be able to see her on the live broadcast the next day.
Yes, Zhang Li’s schedule is so tight these days.
She had just finished filming her role in "Battle of Vientiane" while the second season of "Sing Out Loud" had already reached the fifth episode.
-
Three months have passed since I last exchanged Pei Yuanzhi for 500 million.
Since then, Wan Cheng suddenly invested in Suo Yun Entertainment, which really caught Pei Yuanzhi and Yun Shang off guard.
Pei Yuanzhi was summoned by the police on the day of the dinner and was actually a little confused when he and Yun Shang went to answer the questions.
However, Yun Shang quickly understood something.
However, when the police asked them whether they had been in contact with Su Jinshu, Fu Haijing and Lan Xiao recently, they both said no.
After leaving the police station, Pei Yuanzhi felt more and more that something was wrong. He soon became suspicious of Yun Shang and almost had a big fight with Yun Shang.
Although he also wanted to persuade Suo Yun Entertainment and Tianqi to introduce Bang Entertainment, he was not so low as to attack innocent people.
Things can't be so coincidental, so all this must have been secretly arranged by Yun Shang!
Although Yun Shang tried his best to say that it was none of his business, Pei Yuanzhi had a cold war with him for a while.
Finally, I heard that Wancheng invested in Suoyun Entertainment, and the relationship eased because their interests were tied together.
However, Wan Cheng's investment in Suo Yun Entertainment also made them deeply aware that Su Jinshu had been wary of them for a long time.
It is too late to shake Su Jinshu now, and they are forced to give up Suo Yun, their best partner.
Without Suo Yun Entertainment, they can only cast a wide net.
They have contacted Yichang Media, but as the big brother, Yichang Media would never care about their little thoughts.
After failing to pry open the two leading companies, they had no choice but to lower their goals and start with other entertainment companies.
Unfortunately, most of the managers who can stay in first-class entertainment companies are smart.
They did not agree to Pei Yuanzhi and Yun Shang's promises simply because of their exaggerated words, but simply used the excuse that the company was currently short of funds to shirk their responsibilities.
It’s not that they don’t want to, but it’s not easy to become a top-notch talent. If they make a slight mistake, they may lose everything.
They are watching the direction of the wind. If Apocalypse gets off to a good start, they will naturally be willing to take a gamble.
As a result, Pei Yuanzhi and Yun Shang searched everywhere, but in the end they only found a company with a clearer intention.
This company also has close ties with Zhang Li.
It is Huicai Entertainment, which Zhang Li signed with before.
-
Ever since Zhang Li took his lawyer to terminate the contract, Huicai has not had much presence.
When Zhang Li was facing the dilemma of being banned, they did not come out. Even when Zhang Li and Cheng Yu signed the contract, Ling Man encountered a crisis, and Wan Cheng came to the rescue, they still did not come out.
Because none of the artists signed by it are particularly famous, Huicai has always been inconspicuous in the domestic entertainment industry.
Since Zhang Li left, he has been so busy that he has long forgotten the company he originally signed with.
Under such circumstances, Zhang Li met a familiar person again.
Zhang Li got up early in the morning.
Cheng Yu quickly brought her team over and created her makeup for today.
Because it was winter, although it was warm inside the venue, it was still cold outside, so Zhang Li wore a tight long skirt inside and a thick coat outside.
After a while, they arrived at a familiar venue.
Having recorded four episodes, Zhang Li and her team are already very familiar with this venue.
The staff of "Sing Out Loud" remembered Zhang Li's nanny car very well. When they saw the nanny car arriving, they hurriedly turned on the green light and arranged Zhang Li's nanny car in first.
As soon as the nanny car arrived at the gate of the venue and stopped, it attracted countless eyes.
Zhang Li arrived at the right time today. Because the road was clear, he arrived almost twenty minutes earlier than usual and just ran into the main group of contestants.
In the later stages, there were no amateurs among the contestants invited by "Sing Out Loud", and even a few well-known singers were added.
The same thing happened in this episode. Among the contestants, there were two singers who had a lot of fans. Their schedules had already been revealed to their fans, so the fans deliberately waited outside the venue, causing the entrance to the venue to be a bit crowded.
Staff are intercepting fans and asking the contestants to line up to enter the venue.
As soon as they saw the familiar car coming, the staff didn't care about anything else and directly withdrew their defense against the fans.
"It's Teacher Zhang Li! Quick, escort Teacher Zhang Li in first."
As soon as these words were spoken, the number of people looking over there because of the stopped nanny car suddenly increased.
Cheng Yu had already gotten out of the car and was guarding it with Bai Wen.
Under the gazes of many people, Zhang Li got out of the car wearing a coat. Compared to the people around her, her outfit was extremely beautiful, but also cold.
The staff immediately stepped forward to clear the way for her to prevent fans from bumping into her.
After being escorted to the queue, the contestants and teams in front of her immediately gave up their seats for her when they saw that she was wearing thin clothes.
"Thank you!" Zhang Li was escorted into the hall like a star.
Only then did the fans behind react.
"Zhang Li! It's really Zhang Li!"
"So beautiful! How come she's even prettier in person than in the live stream!"
"I wonder if she will choose our Xiaoduo!..."
Such a grand occasion naturally attracted the attention of those who had entered the hall earlier, and many people subconsciously turned their heads to look.
After seeing that it was Zhang Li, several contestants were a little excited.
However, one of the agents who accompanied the contestant had a frozen expression.
It was not until Zhang Li came in front of them that she could see what Zhang Li looked like now.
Compared to the female artist who was ignored by everyone except the paparazzi a few months ago, she now seems to have been completely reborn.
As soon as she came in, she became the focus of everyone's attention.
Everyone began to revolve around her, and she stood in the center, looking unperturbed by praise or criticism.
Because he spoke a little more to the contestants, someone nearby subconsciously said, "Teacher Zhang Li is just as down-to-earth as she is during the live broadcast!"
The word "down-to-earth" fully explains Zhang Li's current status.
Then someone mentioned that Zhang Li was nominated for the Best Supporting Actress at the Baiwen Awards yesterday, which immediately attracted more people to discuss it.
Zhang Li happened to look up and saw a familiar face in the crowd.
After meeting Zhang Li's eyes, the other party's eyes became evasive.
Zhang Li looked over to her side and saw a male contestant standing next to her, and he understood why the other party appeared there.
But she hadn't cared about it before, and naturally wouldn't care about it now. She seemed oblivious to everything, and after saying something to the contestants with her team, she headed towards the instructors' dedicated elevator.
The remaining contestants were still regretting that they couldn't say a few more words to her.
Chang Wanhong looked at Zhang Li's receding back, feeling mixed emotions for a moment.
A new artist who signed after Zhang Li, who still didn't know about the previous relationship between their agent and Zhang Li, turned to Chang Wanhong and said, "If I can become as famous as Teacher Zhang Li in the future, I will be very satisfied!"
Chang Wanhong's expression changed, but she finally just sighed deeply. The regret she had inexplicably felt when Zhang Li terminated the contract finally came true.
