Chapter 261 Dating Daily, "Love Is Not Blind"
"Bullshit, I'm just talented."
When Boss Wei heard Fan Xiaopang's request for "more money", he was very indignant.
He didn't care about this "fee", but he still had to work. Being a director is a lot of work, and facing a bunch of "animals", the actors are under great pressure. If all this was given to Fan Xiaopang, how could he have the energy to work?
Besides, after all, he was in the crew, so he had to pay more attention to some influences.
Several times, he saw the actors in the same group showing him a smile that men understand. They were all adults and lived in the same hotel, so it was difficult to hide it completely.
After all, Wei Yang was the director + boss, so he still had to care about his image.
If it weren't for being a director this time, he was too busy, and the rehearsal really took up time, so he couldn't run out all the time.
Otherwise, according to Boss Wei's style, the crew has always been calm. If there is a need, they can go to the nearby rented house to solve it privately.
Fan Xiaopang despised Wei Yang's behavior of not recognizing people after pulling up her pants, but she was not easy to mess with. After some operations
Although Wei Yang did not "pay more", he also paid some other costs, including but not limited to watching the movie alone.
"I can see that you just want us to be photographed and make the headlines, right?"
"That's great, it can also increase exposure for the movie. The crews I invested in myself have never worked so hard."
Fan Xiaopang was righteous and confident. It would be best if they were photographed. If they couldn't be photographed, it would be considered as satisfying their little wish. No matter what, they would not lose.
This matter is a bit risky, but Wei Yang has received a lot of help from her during this period, and he was coaxed and served. His heart was a little soft. It was not easy to refuse directly, so he simply gritted his teeth and accepted it.
Thinking that if he was recognized, he would say that he went to spy on the enemy and understand the market.
However, Fan Xiaopang was still very particular. She knew that Wei Yang didn't want a fire in the backyard. Although he shouted that he wanted to make the headlines, he finally chose the midnight show.
There were very few viewers watching movies during this time period, and most of them were not watching movies, which minimized the exposure of their identities.
It is already early November, and there are not many movies released, and even fewer at this time. Many of them are low-cost horror movies.
Fan Xiaopang was not interested in this subject matter. Boss Wei didn't need to pick up girls, and he was too lazy to watch these bad movies.
Wearing sunglasses and a mask, Wei Yang strolled around the wall of movie posters. He was surprised to find a movie he knew.
"Hello! Mr. Tree"
Fan Xiaopang, who was also wrapped tightly, glanced at the poster. Baoqiang, who was sloppy, was running wildly, and he immediately lost interest.
"What's there to watch in art films."
Wei Yang was speechless: "Haven't I acted in many art films?"
"I can't get good commercial film resources, so I shoot these to win awards."
In front of others, Fan Xiaopang said a few polite words, but there was no need to hide it from Wei Yang.
These days, there are not many commercial films where actresses occupy important positions. Several big actresses are competing fiercely, not to mention that there were Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses in the early years.
Fan Xiaopang was suppressed by others in Huayi, and he didn't dare to go out to run a solo business. He couldn't get too good commercial film resources, and he didn't want to be a vase supporting role for others all the time, so he pulled people to shoot art films.
Low investment, hope of winning awards, and being noticed by people in the industry, maybe you can get into a big commercial production.
As for Fan Xiaopang's heart, she definitely still prefers commercial films, especially today when she and Wei Yang come to watch a movie together, which is more or less a romantic date. She definitely hopes to find an interesting one, not an art film with deep hatred.
"Then watch this "Summer Love"?"
Wei Yang glanced at the poster. He didn't know the male actor very well, but the five or six girls in bikinis had a strong visual impact.
Especially the girl in the C position, who can compete with Da Mimi. If he is not mistaken, it should be Zhang Xinyu, Fan Xiaopang's old enemy in the future.
This girl was a model and started filming in 2007. She first attracted attention because of a web movie showing her body. Later, she also participated in Feng Kuzi's "If You Are the One 2".
When the crew of "Celebrating More Than Years" was preparing, someone recommended her to Wei Yang, saying that she had a sexy figure and was very suitable for Si Lili.
Wei Yang didn't use her because, on the one hand, he thought she was not famous enough and her acting skills were not optimistic. On the other hand, he thought that this girl was too greedy to get promoted.
The incident that really made her famous and attracted widespread attention was not filming, but she took advantage of a Hong Kong male star who had an affair with her and posted a photo of herself lying on the bed using his Weibo account.
It can be understood as forcing the palace to announce the official announcement, but it can also be explained as hype to get promoted.
No matter what she thinks, for Wei Yang personally, this kind of thing is too unrefined, so naturally he will not use her.
Wei Yang himself is confident. After all, Liu Shishi, Tang Yan, and Rouba are all in the crew. On the premise of being vigilant, he believes that the other party can hold on even if he pesters him.
But even if he can hold on, it is hard to guarantee that he will take a few photos secretly while he is resting or in some other situation. Then he will still be used for nothing.
What's more, this person is desperate and Wei Yang molests her. With the reputation of Boss Wei, eight mouths can't explain it.
Therefore, Wei Yang always keeps a distance from those who use any means to get to the top.
Except for the women he trusts, he never spends time alone with other women. Even if it is unavoidable, he tries to stay in places with surveillance or people nearby to prevent being framed.
Of course, the latter trick has not yet evolved in the national server. Instead, taking bed photos to gain popularity or get to the top is more common.
Zhang Xinyu is an example. Lin Feng of Hong Kong TVB was also cheated by an internet celebrity this year.
The circle was in a state of panic. Fatty Wang denounced these social malpractices with him. Will there be trust between people in the circle in the future?
However, it did not affect his occasional leave to relax.
This guy is a director behind the scenes. His reputation has long been ruined. He doesn't care if he is photographed.
Looking at the cool outfit on the poster, Fatty Fan couldn't help but step on Wei Yang, and then said domineeringly.
"What's there to see about a group of mediocre fans? If you like this, I'll wear it later."
Wei Yang: "..."
Okay, he's not picky...
The two strolled around and finally saw a poster in a corner. Fatty Fan became interested when he saw the chapter on it.
"Isn't this your rival? Look at this."
Looking at the name of "Love Is Not Blind" on the poster, Wei Yang was a little confused. He remembered that this movie was popular because of the marketing gimmick of Double Eleven Singles' Day.
Later, after carefully looking at the poster, I realized that it was a preview, a small-scale release, to see the reputation and feedback, and to create momentum.
"Then let's watch this."
Wei Yang had seen this movie, but he had forgotten some details. It didn't matter if he watched it again, mainly to accompany Fan Xiaopang.
The two bought tickets and entered the screening room one after the other. Wei Yang deliberately observed the attendance rate, which was very limited.
It is understandable that the midnight show was originally small, the reputation was not good, and the two leading actors were not known for their popularity, so it was normal that they did not receive attention.
Fan Xiaopang watched this movie purely because of Wen Zhang, who was once ranked among the new four little freshmen with Wei Yang, and has developed particularly well in the film industry this year.
The "Legend of the White Snake" he participated in starring in before was just released two days ago, and the final box office was 178 million.
Although this movie is calculated according to the 200 million cost rumored on the Internet, it is simply a loss.
But being able to produce a commercial movie of this scale, even if it is promoted by a godfather, is considered very impressive.
Among these male stars of the same generation, how many can get movie resources of this level? Wei Yang is not mentioned, and it is difficult for Hu Ge to get a serious commercial movie resource.
Not to mention, there have been media reports that Wen Zhang has joined Stephen Chow's new movie and plays the male lead.
This is the most concerned news in the industry!
As the king of comedy, Stephen Chow's influence is not a joke. Although he has retired for several years and is only a director this time, no one with a discerning eye will underestimate this project.
Let's put it this way, Wei Yang can't get involved in this movie even if he wants to invest in it with money. The Hong Kong circle and Huayi are very protective of their food.
Of course, since Wei Yang gave Huayi a piece of the cake for "Famous", the Wang brothers can't be Pixiu, so they welcome Wei Yang to invest in "1942".
This is just not optimistic about the prospects and sharing risks with the wronged.
If Huayi really wants to make money with Wei Yang, it should let him invest in "Private Customization" or the "Detective Dee" series.
The "broad-minded" Wei Yang wrote it all down in his little notebook.
Huayi is powerful now, so it is not easy to fight hard. When Blue Whale rises, these people will be the ones to pull the crotch. You will see how he will take advantage of the situation.
Thinking of this, Wei Yang took another look at Fan Xiaopang. After all, they have been friends for hundreds of days. He will help them when the time comes...
The plot of "Love Is Not Blind" is that a white-collar girl was cheated on, experienced various setbacks, and finally became a boyfriend and girlfriend with her venomous male best friend who often quarreled with each other.
A typical chick flick, with a female perspective, making progress in career or emotion, with a relaxed and romantic style, inspiring process, and a happy ending.
This kind of movie is very popular in Europe and the United States. There were many similar works in Hong Kong in the early days, and even in the mainland.
For example, Zhang Ziyi's "Perfect Match", Xu Cainv's "Go Lala's Promotion", and Gao Yuanyuan's "Single Men and Women" are actually somewhat similar.
Fan Xiaopang didn't take this movie to heart at first, but after watching it, he was thoughtful.
"Do you think I can make this kind of movie?"
There are too few commercial films with women as the main characters. If she can get a share of chick flicks, she won't have to suffer as a vase and make art films.
Wei Yang glanced at her and shook his head: "You can't do it?"
"Why? What's wrong with me?"
Fan Xiaopang was very unconvinced. She was very confident in her appearance and figure. She didn't dare to say that she was the best in Chinese entertainment, but she was better than the pirated Wang Luodan in the movie.
"You are too beautiful, and your aura is too strong. Chick flicks are for ordinary female audiences to empathize with. How can ordinary audiences empathize with your face?"
After Bai Baihe became popular, it's not that no one followed suit, but the facts proved that not everyone can eat the bowl of chick flicks.
This woman is not beautiful, but she has a kind of energy, sad, but at the same time a little optimistic, which makes her have her own audience popularity, which is difficult for other actresses to imitate.
Fan Xiaopang didn't know whether to be happy that Wei Yang praised her for her beauty, or depressed that she had lost another acting path.
But she quickly put this entanglement behind her. Her theme today is dating and having fun.
After watching the movie, she took Wei Yang to Shanghai to stroll around the Bund, found a western restaurant for dinner, and finally went to a love hotel with good confidentiality to add classes.
How should I put it? Wei Yang was particularly impressed by the water bed in that hotel. The waves were turbulent, and each wave was stronger than the last one...
