Chapter 173: Fatty Fan Lets Himself Go



Xiao Dezhang, played by "professional eunuch" Zhao Liang, read out Emperor Xuantong's abdication edict in a shrill voice.

Fan Xiaopang, who played the Empress Dowager Longyu, sat together with little Puyi, while Chow Yun-fat, who played Yuan Shikai, led a group of Spring Festival Gala... No, the Beiyang bigwigs were standing below, including Wei Yang, the Regent Zaifeng.

There are only two shots of him in this scene, just watching his son abdicate in a complicated way. There are more shots of Fat Fan.

At the end of the dynasty, the royal family tried their best to maintain the last bit of dignity. Putting other aspects aside, the overall scene is still somewhat sad and sigh-worthy.

However, Boss Wei felt that the decision by the film crew of "The Founding of a Party" to cast Fan Xiaopang to play the role of Empress Dowager Longyu was a disregard for history.

Who was Empress Dowager Longyu? It would be a stretch to say that she was plain-looking. She was one of the few "ugly women" in modern times whose photos were left behind. Once everyone saw her, they would understand why she was not favored.

But who is Fan Xiaopang? He is a tough guy who has never lost in the entertainment industry when it comes to looks. He was sitting there in the empress dowager's gorgeous clothes, looking elegant and graceful.

With this look, Empress Dowager Longyu herself would have laughed out loud from the underground. When Emperor Guangxu saw it, there was no need for other concubines to care...

But it’s not all the crew’s fault. Fan Xiaopang’s original role was Xiao Fengxian, but later on his schedule he couldn’t make room, so the role was given to Huayi newcomer Yang Tianbao, so Fan had no choice but to play the empress dowager.

After this scene was finished, the others moved on and Wei Yang and Fan Xiaopang had to shoot another scene.

There are two parts in total. One is about Zaifeng persuading Empress Dowager Longyu to abdicate, and the other is about Longyu dying of depression after the abdication, and asking Zaifeng and Concubine Jin to take care of Puyi.

Wei Yang had never seen these two scenes in a movie in his previous life, but that was normal. This period of history spanned and involved too much, and one movie simply couldn't tell the story.

It is said that the original material was more than four hours long, but was finally cut into two hours. Many scenes that were filmed were not broadcast, and even many celebrities shot for several days but did not get any shots.

For example, Zhao Benshan later said in an interview that he had said a lot of lines, but only kept those few sentences in the end and became a background board.

These scenes involving Longyu and Zaifeng may have been part of the original script, or they were newly added by the crew because of their popularity.

Anyway, for Wei Yang, he was just here as a guest star, so there was no need for him to worry about it.

The staff set up the scene. There were only a few lines in total. Wei Yang memorized them and played with his phone in the lounge area. Fat Fan went to touch up his makeup, then sat next to Wei Yang and took a look.

"Who are you chatting with? You're laughing so happily. Is it your girlfriend from Tangren, or those two girls from Xinjiang?"

"Not chatting, just watching the news."

Wei Yang took out his cell phone to prove his innocence. For various reasons, he had not contacted Fan Xiaopang before, and the woman was already unhappy.

When they met again yesterday, Wei Yang owed someone a favor and had to sell himself to make up for it, so they found a safe place to have a brief chat about their recent situation.

As a result, during the half-time break, he happened to catch Liu Xingyu giving his daily report on the newcomers. Reba and Nazha were right next to them, so Wei Yang chatted with them for a few minutes, and then he was caught by Fan Xiaopang.

This woman took advantage of the situation and insisted that he was fickle and that the reason he didn't call her while filming "Eastern Palace" was because he was thinking about the two sisters from Xinjiang.

Wei Yang felt sorry for her and Liu Shishi, so she wanted to enforce justice and punish the scumbag.

So she squeezed Wei Yang for more than an hour...

The key point is that this woman didn't give up after she was done. She became jealous and spoke in a sarcastic manner all the time. Wei Yang couldn't afford to offend her, so he could only pretend to be a coward to save his life.

"The August incident at Deyun Club?"

Fat Fan glanced at the headlines and apparently knew something about the situation: "I saw in the news that all books and videos have been taken off the shelves. Are they going to close?"

"Not really. Just cut off your tail and survive. Stay out of the spotlight."

The little black fat guy is having a really hard time right now. Netizens' public opinion is okay, but the relevant media are one-sided. The most crucial thing is that the official media has taken action, with theaters closed for rectification, variety shows suspended from recording, books and videos removed from the shelves, and a group of mainstream peers and enemies leading the way to add insult to injury.

In another ten years, if this trend continues, the industry will be basically dead, and there will be almost no chance of recovery.

Even now when conditions are more relaxed, Deyun Club is in danger, otherwise a group of people would not have publicly distanced themselves from him, and his partners and apprentices would not have announced their withdrawal.

Fatty Fan was a little surprised: "You mean he can still hold on?"

"His base is not the media, but the audience. You can tell from the direction of public opinion that this incident does not have such a big impact on him."

Wei Yang looked through the comment section on Fan Xiaopang's Weibo and found that most people supported the little black fat guy and cursed their colleagues, traitors, reporters, etc.

Before the fat black boy started his fan club and started a bad business, Deyun Club was definitely ranked first in popularity and popularity among mainland artists, and its favorability among the public was extremely high.

"In the final analysis, he was not the one who beat anyone up, and that reporter was not clean either. At most, Lao Guo made a few remarks that were too arrogant. He just needs to be disciplined. He doesn't need to be killed."

Wei Yang said it very clearly. One is that the crime is not punishable by death, and the other is that Lao Guo can make money on his own and he is promoting the slogan of revitalizing quyi and promoting national culture.

Don’t underestimate this slogan. It can be said to be the foundation of Deyun Club. It can not only support justice, but also save lives at critical moments.

So many people wish he would die, and many people are willing to protect him.

"When the media has almost finished their work and the momentum has died down, if you're willing, you can show your support on Weibo and do me a favor."

Wei Yang has no relationship with Deyun Club, so there is no need for him to intervene and help, but if it does not involve the situation that affects himself, it would be nice to say a few good words and get a favor.

After all, the little black fat guy will be considered a big shot in the industry in the future. Maybe we can cooperate with each other in the future. It won't hurt to make friends with him.

This is a piece of cake for Wei Yang and his team, but for Deyun Club, which is in trouble, the support from this super popular star is of great help to them, and it can be said to be a timely help.

Fan Xiaopang also understands this principle.

However, generally speaking, in order to avoid bringing trouble upon themselves, celebrities will never rashly get involved unless they have sufficient connections or sufficient hard power and cannot see the situation clearly.

But now it’s different with Wei Yang’s reminder. Based on the previous series of collaborations, she still trusts Boss Wei’s judgment.

"I can't judge the timing well, I'll follow you later, I'll send it after you send it."

Fat Fan's eyes lit up: "There is also this operation, let's try it tonight."

Wei Yang: “…”

This woman is letting herself go more and more in front of him, and she even listens to crosstalk... Don't mention it, he has never tried it...

While the two were chatting, the publicity and promotion manager of "The Founding of a Party" came over and hoped that they could post a Weibo to promote it.

Wei Yang now has about 7.5 million followers on Weibo, while Fan Xiaopang has slightly fewer, at just over 7 million.

The number of fans on Weibo of the two of them is unique, and the third place has just broken 6 million.

The crew of "The Founding of a Party" specially brought the two of them together to shoot a few scenes. No one would believe that they had no other intentions.

Wei Yang originally thought that it was mainly media reports, but he didn't expect that Weibo was also concerned about it. The China Film Promotion and Marketing Team was much more professional than he thought.

However, Wei Yang and the other man did not refuse. They thought that this would definitely happen, so it didn't matter if they posted a Weibo post.

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

So Wei Yang and Fan Xiaopang took a photo together and @ed each other and the official Weibo of "The Founding of a Party".

Wei Yang only sent two words [二搭] and a smiley face, while Fan Xiaopang was a little more naughty [Look who I met].

There are two people with high popularity and traffic on Weibo. These two Weibo posts were immediately pushed to the front page and were watched by countless fans and passers-by.

[So handsome, so beautiful]

[Although I don’t like the Qing Dynasty, and I hate their gloomy clothing style even more, I have to say that I can’t find fault with these two sets of clothes worn by these two people]

[One is elegant and graceful, the other is refined and steady, a good match]

【Who is this actor? 】

[I saw in the news that it seemed to be talking about Empress Dowager Longyu and Zaifeng, that is, Guangxu's wife and younger brother]

[Oh, a sister-in-law and a brother-in-law]

[Tsk tsk, the Queen Mother of a fallen nation, the tragic regent, coupled with this forbidden relationship, it’s over, it’s over, I imagined a lot of scenes that cannot be broadcast]

[Ahem, private chat, details]

[Why do I feel like this is the Qing Dynasty version of Professor Gu and Fan Qianqian, you bastard Wei, you can start a sequel]

[This is the second one, looking forward to the third one]

[I raise the banner for the Yang soldiers]

[Yang Bing is too ugly, let’s just call him [Wei Fan], it sounds good enough]

[The Wei guy is such a jerk. Bingbing, Shishi, Yangrong, Tangtang, I hate him so much (gritting my teeth)]

[Didn’t Fan Ye say she wouldn’t marry into a wealthy family? ]

[Wei Yang is not a wealthy family. He started from scratch. It just so happens that both of them climbed up from the bottom. They have the same abilities and ideas. They are a match made in heaven.]

[I finally understood, Fan Bingbing said she would not marry into a wealthy family, but she was actually confessing her love to Wei Yang]

[That’s right, marrying into a wealthy family is more fulfilling than creating a wealthy family with your own hands]

【……】

Looking at the various excited speculations made by a bunch of CP fans, Fan Xiaopang was grinning coquettishly. If he had not been rational, he would have directly liked the post.

She was happy, but Wei Yang was very worried.

The harder these guys beat him, the more miserable his life would be with Liu Shishi and Xiao Zhao...

Fan Xiaopang stayed in the crew of "The Founding of a Party" for three days. Although Boss Wei had the experience of listening to crosstalk, unfortunately his anti-Qing wish of striking the Empress Dowager hard was not fulfilled.

The costume is too tight to be moved.

Moreover, this woman Fan Xiaopang doesn't like this kind of anti-Qing drama, but would rather watch the scene where Eunuch Wei serves the Empress Dowager.

Neither of them was willing to give in, and in order to discuss the direction of the script, they engaged in a heated argument that shook the earth...

After Fan Xiaopang left, Wei Yang stayed in the crew for two more days and filmed the later scenes of Zhang Xun's restoration. There were not many shots and he was still mainly a background board.

It is worth mentioning that the actress who played Concubine Jin in the TV drama is...ahem...Liu Tao.

It’s funny to say, this person is a typical example of a woman whose dream of marrying into a wealthy family was shattered. Her wealthy husband went bankrupt due to the financial crisis, and she was only a rich wife for a few days before she had to take on acting jobs again.

Her experience, coupled with Fan Xiaopang’s previous statement, “I don’t marry into a wealthy family, I am the wealthy family,” seems a bit darkly humorous and ironic.

This also resulted in the two of them having almost no interactions in private. Boss Wei, who had long heard of his name, could only stand on the side of Fan Xiaopang. After a few days of cooperation, they were just nodding acquaintances.

For this reason, Wei Yang thought about asking Fatty Fan to compensate him and discuss the script between Principal Wei and Teacher Fan next time...
