Chapter 192 Breakup, the Worst Record
"Okay, sure. I don't think it's a problem for Wang Tianfang to play Ren Yifan. The other actors are also suitable. Next, you can discuss it with Jiang Bo and see if you can come up with a plan."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded gently and said, "I still say the same thing. You can have absolute rights in casting, but the roles you choose must be suitable."
Xiao Xue said: "Okay, I will discuss this with Jiang Bo in the next two days."
"Okay, come find me if you need my cooperation."
Yu Xiaoshu agreed.
"That's fine, Mr. Yu, you're busy."
Xiao Xue said this and left the room.
Two days later, among the actors of "Go Go Squid!", basically all the artists under Baiqian Media participated. In this way, the matter of Wu Lan being fired would naturally not be blamed on Yu Xiaoshu's grudge.
More importantly, everyone knows that Wu Lan is actually a little surprised about the company in private, and she is also quite arrogant, the kind of person we usually call someone with little ability but a lot of temper.
Among them, Wang Chao knows Wu Lan better, and he has some friendship with Wu Lan. When Wu Lan refused the role of Chen Chuchu in "The Rumored Chen Qianqian", Wang Chao advised Wu Lan, but Wu Lan did not listen.
Later, Wang Chao had a heart-to-heart talk with Wu Lan. He felt that as long as Wu Lan kept a calm mind, there would always be opportunities in the future.
Unfortunately, Wu Lan didn't take it seriously at that time. She believed that she would be a huge success with "The Visitors from Outer Space". Then, where could she go?
Well, Wu Lan always felt that she was condescending at Baiqian Media.
This time, when Wu Lan asked Yu Xiaoshu for the role, she actually had the same mentality, and she showed it unconsciously without even realizing it.
Then, it ended up being a tragedy.
"You said that most of the leading actors in the web drama "Together with You" are artists from Baiqian Media?"
Wu Lan looked at Wang Chao and asked in disbelief.
Wang Chao nodded gently: "Yes."
Wu Lan still didn't quite believe it. "Then Wang Tianfang can also participate?"
"Yes, Wang Tianfang is one of the leading actors."
Wang Chao said.
"Asshole, you are going too far."
After hearing this, Wu Lan gritted her teeth and started cursing.
"Wu Lan, do you still think that everything is someone else's fault?"
Wang Chao looked at Wu Lan and said with some disappointment.
Wu Lan said angrily: "Of course, it's not someone else's fault, is it my fault?"
"It's your fault in the first place. After 'The Undocumented Crime', Mr. Yu was impressed by your acting skills. That's why he wanted you to play the role of Chen Chuchu in 'The Rumored Chen Qianqian'. But you refused and insisted on starring in 'The Visitor'. Who else can you blame if not you?"
Wang Chao looked at Wu Lan and said, "I don't know what happened to you when you went to Teacher Yu to hate the character this time, but I believe you definitely didn't communicate well."
"Haha, Wang Chao, are you here to humiliate me? Why? Just because you starred in "The Undocumented Crime" and "The Rumored Chen Qianqian" and they were successful, you think Yu Xiaoshu is great and I am terrible?"
Wu Lan looked at Wang Chao and sneered, "I thought you were someone worth getting to know. Looks like I'm disappointed. You're no different from those people who forget their principles for the sake of profit."
Wang Chao said speechlessly: "Wu Lan, don't be so extreme."
"I'm extreme? How am I extreme? Come on, Wang Chao, stop pretending to be a good person here. Do you just want to see me regret it? How I feel about not clinging to Yu Xiaoshu's thigh, right?"
Wu Lan said with a hint of sarcasm: "I'm telling you, you're disappointed. I officially signed with Dongyi yesterday, and Dongyi's resources are far more than Baiqian Media's. It's still unclear who will have the last laugh in the future."
Wang Chao hurriedly said, "Wu Lan, that's not what I meant. Although you left Baiqian Media, I think our friendship has not changed. If you can sign a contract with Dongyi and then succeed, I will be very happy for you. How can I be disappointed?"
"Okay, that sounds better when you say it than when you sing it."
Wu Lan's face was full of harshness and ferocity. "I'm telling you, I've taken note of all the humiliation you've inflicted on me this time, Yu Xiaoshu, Baiqian Media, etc. It's normal to have ups and downs in the entertainment industry. Yu Xiaoshu was once the youngest platinum writer, and he was in high spirits, but what happened later? His wife ran away, and the company kicked him out. Yes, he has now achieved success with his four works, I Am Yu Huanshui, The Undocumented Crime, The Rumored Chen Qianqian, and Hard Candy, but who knows if he will fall even harder next time."
Since he met Wu Lan, Wang Chao has been tolerant and patient with Wu Lan in various ways. The two have known each other for almost 7 years. Basically, Wang Chao is in a weak position most of the time. He has also become accustomed to being looked down upon by Wu Lan, just like when Wang Chao advised Wu Lan in "The Undocumented Crime" and was ridiculed in return.
This is how the two of them got along since they met.
Wu Lan didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and Wang Chao didn't argue about it because they were used to it.
Just like just now, even though Wu Lan was so angry and ferocious, as if she had lost her mind, and even almost scolded Wang Chao, Wang Chao still persuaded Wu Lan like a dog, without any anger.
However, after hearing Wu Lan curse Yu Xiaoshu to fail, Wang Chao couldn't stand it anymore: "Wu Lan, yes, it's normal to have ups and downs in the entertainment industry. Many people often say that artists don't compete for the first place, but for the most continuous success. But that also depends on chance. If you don't make a name for yourself when you are young, it will be even more difficult to make a name for yourself when you are older. So, I really don't understand where you get the confidence to mock Mr. Yu. Don't say that I don't think Mr. Yu will fail in the future. Even if, even if Mr. Yu fails, I think you have no right to mock him."
"I'm right. You, Wang Chao, have really become Yu Xiaoshu's licker. From now on, there's no need for us to get along anymore."
Wu Lan was so angry when she heard what Wang Chao said.
She didn't expect that Wang Chao would confront her, and be so ruthless.
"If you think my rational analysis is just clinging to Teacher Yu's thigh and being Teacher Yu's licker, then I admit it, I am Teacher Yu's licker."
Wang Chao stood up and said, "You are right about one thing. There is really no need for us to get along anymore."
True friends seek common ground while reserving differences.
But if you can't find common ground, then there's really no point in being together.
"Asshole, as expected, no man is good."
After Wang Chao left, Wu Lan became so angry that she started cursing.
To be honest, Wu Lan's mood was not good, or it could be said that her mood was on the verge of collapse.
"A Guest from Other Worlds" flopped at the box office and its reputation also flopped.
This online movie has been listed as the worst movie of the year.
No.
Not just this year.
Many people said that in the past five years, no one would surpass the lower limit of the online movie "A Guest from Another World".
Everybody was cursing.
Moreover, "A Guest from the Outside World" created a record, that is, no matter whether people are men or women, no matter what kind of disputes they have in their daily lives, this time they all started to curse each other clearly.
There is a term in the industry: black and red.
The more a bad movie is criticized, the higher the box office.
This is also true. There are several bad movies that made over 100 million yuan at the box office despite being criticized, and some even made over 200 million yuan.
But that was a movie. Online movies are different. After all, you can try it out, and word of mouth is crucial.
"A Guest from Beyond the Clouds" has a score of only 2 points.
That's right.
2 points.
This is the lowest score on Douhu, and that’s because Douhu cannot give a score of 0. Otherwise, the score of “A Guest from Another World” would not just be 2 points, it might even be 0 points.
Regarding this online movie, Jijiliangmiba wrote another film review after the word-of-mouth rating came out.
No.
It can't be considered a film review.
To be precise, it is about the changes in the online movie and online drama market.
In the past, in the market, good guys were basically abused a thousand times, and there was always a reason for bad guys to become bad. And because of this reason, bad guys might get the greatest benefit in the end by being unscrupulous.
Look at the online dramas and movies in the past, many of them are like this.
But it's different now.
Everyone is already living a very frustrating life in reality, so naturally they want to have some fun.
The first part of "I Am Yu Huanshui" was a bit depressing, but in the latter part, Yu Huanshui started to show off.
"The Undocumented" is depressing, but it also reflects the fact that human nature is evil.
Not to mention "The Rumored Chen Qianqian", it is a sweet pet drama.
"Hard Candy" is about revenge, even though many people say that the show has a distorted outlook on life.
So you see.
Currently, whether it is online dramas or online movies, they still have to basically follow the market. Human nature is evil, so we must never casually give people positive energy or preach, let alone have a virgin syndrome.
At the same time, some people's evil is inexplicable, while some people's evil has other roots.
The most important point is to grasp the degree.
As long as you can grasp this degree.
Then there is no problem.
The article "The penis is 2.8 meters tall" about the market did attract some discussion.
Some people think: "I hate the sober Ji Da the most, the protagonist who has a Madonna syndrome."
Some people think: "This guy is just here to get attention. Since when has positive energy been ridiculed?"
Some people also analyzed rationally: "That's not what chicken big means, this is what chicken big means."
etc.
And it's not just netizens and Douhu viewers, the industry as well, who are divided into three camps regarding the market theory of a 2.8-meter-long penis.
One group thought it was interesting and they could try it next time.
One group thinks that this is nonsense and that online dramas and online movies should never lose their positive energy.
One group thinks that what Ji Da said is right and gives you a thumbs up.
Among them, Yu Xiaoshu belongs to the third faction.
He really thinks that this guy with a 2.8-meter-long penis is quite talented and has a thorough understanding of the market.
Yu Xiaoshu has a thorough understanding of the market because in addition to his strong abilities, he also brings with him entertainment wealth from the other side of the earth and many opinions, but this guy with a 2.8-meter-tall penis is a native.
What does it mean that the indigenous people have such abilities?
This shows that the chicken is really big.
"Who is this person?"
Baiqian Media, Yu Xiaoshu sighed once again as he looked at the post on Douhu by a guy with a penis of 2.8 meters tall.
He thought the post about the 2.8-meter-long penis was quite good.
In today's online drama and online movie market, people are extremely disgusted with protagonists with virgin syndrome.
No, it's not just the online drama and online movie market, it's also the case with the movie and TV drama market.
What we need nowadays is not a selfish protagonist. What we need is that if you respect me one foot, I will respect you ten feet. If others do not offend me, I will not offend others. If others offend me, I will definitely offend them.
Such a protagonist would be criticized in the past, but now everyone thinks that such a protagonist is the right way to go.
Apart from this, the four words "human nature is evil" are really profound.
Yu Xiaoshu’s next film “The Hidden Corner” will also include this discussion.
Another point is that this is also the reason why Yu Xiaoshu thinks that "The Hidden Murderer" will flop.
Because Luo Yuan said in an interview that human nature is inherently good, we should give those who make mistakes a chance.
Looking at what was shown in the first three episodes of "The Hidden Murderer", Yu Xiaoshu feels that this drama is bound to fail.
It would be unfair not to do so.
"Teacher Yu."
At this time, He Wu knocked on the door and walked in: "The schedule coordination and the time to join the crew of "The Hidden Corner" have been determined. This is the schedule of these leading actors."
Yu Xiaoshu took it, glanced at it and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, Manager He. Please send this form to Director Zhang and tell him that our start time will remain unchanged."
"Okay, I'll pass it on to him right away. Also, I'll let Sean coordinate with the team. He's an old subordinate of mine. There's absolutely no problem with his ability, and he's also quite good at coordinating with the artists."
He Wu said.
"Yes, sure."
Yu Xiaoshu nodded gently: "Then let him go to Hong Kong City with me."
"Okay, I'll go tell him."
He Wu said this and stood up.
After He Wu left, Yu Xiaoshu read the discussions about the two works "The Hidden Murderer" and "The Visitor" on the Internet for a while, as well as the Douhu ratings.
The rating of "The Man Who Fell to Earth" naturally remains at 2 points.
However, the rating of "Hidden Murderer" is slowly declining.
Obviously, this is because more and more viewers found the plot unsatisfactory after getting into the show and gave bad reviews.
Episodes 4 and 5.
This "Hidden Murderer" will directly update two episodes next time, and these two episodes will determine whether "Hidden Murderer" will create a legend or collapse.
Yu Xiaoshu was pressing for a landslide.
Closing the notebook, Yu Xiaoshu came to Wang Bao's office.
"Xiao Shu, I was just looking for you. Filming for Together with You will start in a week. Can you come back?"
Wang Bao asked.
Yu Xiaoshu glanced at the time, then thought for a moment and said, "I can come back."
"That's good. After all, they are all your children, so you should treat them equally."
Wang Bao smiled and made a joke, then got down to business: "Is it time to start?"
