Huayu, can you be called the best actor if you don’t indulge yourself?

Chapter 310 A Good Dock

Look at this pile of money.

Li Luo smiled and grabbed a thick stack of banknotes that had not even been opened, put it to his nose and took a deep breath.

The whole nose is filled with an extremely intoxicating fragrance.

Film and television industry.

Not everyone can play it well.

This investment of several million seems like something that even a first-tier star could afford with just a grit of teeth, but considering the risks involved, not many people dare to spend money like this.

Not to mention the losses.

Even if you make money, you have to wait for several months to get it back.

But there are plenty of places to spend money.

If I don’t have sufficient funds or am not confident enough, I really don’t dare to touch things like film and television investment.

Sometimes you don’t even have the right to smash something even if you want to.

The investors will not give up the qualification to organize the event.

Sometimes you just have to play it yourself, take the risk and try it out alone, before others will think you are worthy of a seat at the table.

After this, I will decide what role I will take.

If you express your desire to play together, others will consider it carefully.

"Pretend it up!"

Smiling and weighing the money in his hand, Li Luo quickly stuffed it into the shoulder bag beside him.

Lin Yue and Ning Hao also followed his actions with great interest.

Ten stacks of banknotes weigh more than two kilograms.

Most of the shoulder bags contained 100,000 in cash.

All the main creative staff who came to attend the celebration banquet today are included. Although Xu Zheng only went to two or three stops around Shanghai, he was a guest star at the time, and now that the box office is selling well, he deserves a big red envelope.

Liu Hua can't be missed either.

After all, he is old, and you can't force him to run with you.

The role is so important.

It would be unreasonable not to give a red envelope.

Li Luo always likes to have fun with everyone when he does things. This group of people followed him on the roadshow for one and a half months, and they were so tired that they were staggering when they walked. Now that the movie is doing so well.

He would feel guilty if he didn't express his opinion.

In a short while, seven or eight bulging shoulder bags were piled up on the table, which made people feel satisfied just by looking at them.

"Brother Luo, come here."

Ning Hao tactfully stepped aside, the pain he had felt before long gone.

Originally, I was one of those who received the 100,000 yuan.

But with what Li Luo said at the beginning, he would receive millions of dollars in salary in a few months, and he was extremely grateful. Why would he rush to be in the limelight at this time?

"Let's go!"

Li Luo did not delay either.

If you are a boss, you have to enjoy the pleasure of paying out large sums of money.

After Lin Yue stuffed the red envelope into the safe, he grabbed a few shoulder bags, happily pushed the door and left the small room. The red envelope weighed only 20 kilograms and felt light in his hands.

He walked forward with big strides, swinging seven or eight backpacks, and several people followed him.

This posture looks particularly arrogant!
Didn't go far.

Several people swarmed into the lounge.

"Luo Ge!!!"

"director."

"Producer Lin."

Various greetings were heard, and a group of creators who were chatting in the lounge stood up one after another. These guys all looked happy and excited.

Except for himself, they were all the same as when they were on the roadshow.

Wearing jeans.

He was wearing a white T-shirt.

The big words "Crazy Stone" looked particularly dazzling as they held their heads high and chests puffed out.

Except for the main creator.

There were also Berna's people and the host present.

When he showed up like this, of course Yu Dong had to come over to join in the fun.

"Hello everyone."

Li Luo stopped and said with a laugh, "Let's finish the serious business first. You have all been very hard-working during this period, so Director Ning and I have prepared some small gifts for you."

"Mr. Yu."

He grabbed the heaviest shoulder bag and casually threw it to Yu Dong: "Here is 200,000 yuan, please help distribute it to the brothers and sisters who are following me on the roadshow."

"Bang~"

Yu Dong subconsciously stretched out his hands to catch it, but was knocked back half a step.

But he was not dissatisfied at all.

Instead, he unzipped it very skillfully.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Yu Dong grabbed a handful of red banknotes and threw them to Wang Peng with a smile: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and thank Luo Ge!!!"

The impact that cash brings to people is always particularly strong.

Tens of thousands of dollars flew in.

Wang Peng hurriedly caught it, and he was shocked and shouted excitedly: "Thank you Luo Ge, thank you director, thank you!"

Looking at the money the other party was holding up.

The eyes of the people in the lounge suddenly became extremely hot.

Who doesn’t like the feeling of dividing gold on a scale? It’s more exciting than any words of encouragement.

Except for the main creative staff.

At that time, Bernard also arranged a lot of people to run around.

Whether Yu Dong made a corresponding statement or not, it had nothing to do with him. Anyway, Li Luo felt that when rewarding people based on their merits, he should not forget the staff who had been busy for more than a month.

Led by Wang Peng, Berna's staff happily expressed their gratitude.

"Xiao Ou."

Nodding with a smile, Li Luo grabbed a shoulder bag and handed it over: "Thank you for your hard work during this period, take it!"

It was indeed hard work, as she was the only woman in the creative team.

But he just ran down.

Every game.

Based on this, they will be rewarded generously.

"Thank you Luo Ge."

Wang Ou was holding the heavy bag and smiling happily.

With her taking the lead.

The others all took it with a smile.

Everyone's voices of thanks were louder than the last.

The entire lounge was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and everyone was grinning from ear to ear while holding the money in their hands.

But there are always unexpected things.

Following Huang Bo's signal, Wang Xun looked nervously at Li Luo who was walking towards him.

"Brother Luo."

When the shoulder bag was handed over, he pursed his lips quickly and said in a weak voice: "Can I not take the money? How about you give me something else instead?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone around looked over.

Even Huang Bo was surprised.

did not expect.

I don’t even want money!
"No."

Li Luo flatly refused, shook his head and said, "I am a very loyal person, I only like women!"

The atmosphere at the scene became tense.

Then there was a burst of laughter.

It even made Wang Xun blush.

"What do you want to change?"

When the laughter died down a little, Li Luo asked in confusion.

"Is such that."

Wang Xun gritted his teeth and said in a voice that came out of his throat: "Brother Luo, can you sign me?"

"I know."

Adjusting his glasses, he said quickly, "My image isn't very good, and I'm not a professional actor, but I will definitely work hard. Brother Luo, can you give me a chance?"

With his hands clenched into fists, the guy stiffened his neck.

His eyes were full of desire.

After this fantastic journey, Wang Xun found that he could not go back!

He no longer wanted to rap and entertain a bunch of drunkards on a small stage. A strong urge in his heart made him want to move to a bigger stage, whether it was to act in a movie or on TV.

The life in front of the camera is what I really want.

These two days.

He just kept thinking about it.

Huang Bo also saw through his thoughts and told him bluntly that if he wanted to survive in this circle, it was not enough to have ability and determination alone, but also having a good base was of utmost importance.

It is suggested that he find a better agency while the movie is still popular.

Two persons and one total.

So he set his sights on Li Luo.

After spending more than a month together, Wang Xun knows Li Luo's character very well. It's hard to say how many resources he can provide, but he is definitely not a boss who would cheat people.

That being the case.

Why bother seeking survival instead of maturity?

After some consideration, Huang Bo suggested that Wang Xun bring it up at the celebration banquet. He would definitely be very happy at this time.

The chance of success will definitely be much higher than usual.

That’s how the situation is now.

"In fact, you are already quite famous now."

After a brief pause, Li Luo looked at Wang Xun with a smile and said, "At least it's no problem to audition for some special roles. There should be many agencies that would like you. There's no need for you to follow me."

"Ah."

In front of so many people, he couldn't refuse too bluntly: "Maybe there will be better options outside."

When it comes to his studio, he prefers to go with the route of fewer but better.

Just get some money trees!
"Brother Luo."

Wang Xun quickly shook his head and tried his best to defend himself: "I started to learn from a master when I was 18 years old. Before I performed in Crazy Stone, I had been working in the crosstalk and sketch circles in Sichuan and Chongqing for 14 years."

"I've suffered a lot and endured a lot."

"But it doesn't matter."

He took a deep breath, pinching his arms until the veins popped out: "I know I am a small person, and I deserve to suffer. My dream is also very small. I will be satisfied if I can play a good supporting role!"

"Brother Luo, just let me work with you. I don't have any requests."

"real."

"I feel at ease following you."

After hearing Wang Xun's words, everyone around fell silent. Except for a very few people, everyone had struggled to climb up step by step from the bottom.

Yu Dong was born into a working-class family. In his early years, he earned the nickname "Workaholic" for drinking so hard in order to sell more copies.

If you drink too much, pinch your throat, then continue drinking.

Wang Ou has lived a bumpy and wandering life since he was a child, living under the care of others for many years.

Huang Bo's family conditions are good.

But in order to realize his musical dream, he started hanging around in dance halls since junior high school, doing odd jobs, singing and smiling. Sometimes, even dance coaches had to bite the bullet and do it just to make a living.

Seeing Wang Xun like this.

They would definitely feel touched.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Luo stuffed the shoulder bag in his hand into Wang Xun's arms: "Everyone is the protagonist of his own life. Don't think of yourself as a small person. The money is what you deserve."

"Tomorrow morning, go to the studio to find Sister Yue to sign the contract."

One sheep is driven, two sheep are herded.

With this movie as a foundation, it will be no problem for Wang Xun to find a role to play. The only difference is the size of the role.

In other words.

There is no problem with the other party helping you make money.

In that case, just sign it. I don’t have to do any work anyway.

"Thank you Luo Ge, thank you."

Wang Xun was overwhelmed with joy and bowed to Li Luo repeatedly with excitement. Envious glances from people around him fell on him one after another. Having a foothold in the circle and having no foothold are two completely different things.

Putting aside the benefits, at least it can avoid a lot of bad things.

Li Luo smiled and patted the guy on the shoulder, then quickly glanced at Lin Yue.

The latter is totally irrelevant.

Wang Xun is not a newcomer now. He has Crazy Stone as his qualification, so it is very easy for him to audition for some small supporting roles. He should not refuse the money that is offered to him.

Compared to taking Wang Ou to the crew for auditions at that time, this could be said to be the least stressful thing.

When Li Luo gave Xu Zheng the last shoulder bag and hugged Tao Hong warmly.

People from the creative team behind him also surrounded the excited Wang Xun.

Congratulations to him repeatedly.

Amidst the laughter, the host quickly checked the next steps with the creative team.

More than twenty minutes later.

The press conference room was already packed with reporters.

Cameras were densely set up in the middle of the aisle, and the media were holding cameras in their hands. Amid the sound of cheerful music, everyone was whispering and looking at the huge background wall on the stage.

On top of that, was a huge emerald.

The jadeite reflected the extremely exaggerated expressions on the faces of Li Luo, Guo Tao and Huang Bo, which made people smile knowingly.

"Congratulations to Crazy Stone for breaking 20 million in the first weekend box office. Celebration party and thank you banquet. "

The numbers on it.

Reporters occasionally took photos.

I couldn't help but admire this box office dark horse.

I don’t know what kind of amazing results the movie will create after it is released.

The music soon stopped, and the host, wearing a golden dress, appeared gracefully amid applause, and spoke a welcome speech to the reporters with a bright smile.

Side of the stage.

Except for Li Luo and Yu Dong, everyone else saw the scene outside.

They all felt their legs go weak.

That's right.

I did a lot of roadshows.

But most of them were moviegoers and a few local media. They had never seen such a densely packed scene before, and they were so excited that their palms were sweating and their thighs were trembling.

I don’t know about the future, but at least for now.

I am definitely famous!
Think of this.

One after another, they were sweating profusely and looked extremely panic-stricken.

"Why are you nervous?"

Li Luo put his hands in his pockets, looked around and said, "We have been running for more than a month. We have seen all kinds of scenes. How can they expect us to be defeated? Xiaojun, you must not let us down again this time."

"If you jump on the female host, be careful that she will sue you for molestation!"

The sound of laughter continued to ring out.

The tension that had just permeated everyone was gone.

Just ten seconds later.

Amid the cheers of the host and the enthusiastic applause of the reporters at the banquet, Li Luo happily raised his arms and led the crew members to stride into the snowflake-like light, clapping their hands.

Enjoying their own moment of glory, the story behind the stone was spread by major media.

It has attracted the attention of countless people.

The entire summer vacation.

Because of its unexpected rise, a fierce battle broke out in advance.

Superman Returns was squeezed due to scheduling issues.

The data dropped sharply.

What is extremely surprising is that the box office performance of Dragon Tiger Gate also declined rapidly. Unlike the rave reviews of Crazy Stone, this action blockbuster adapted from the well-known comic was constantly criticized.

The extremely awkward advertising placement was criticized for being too obvious.

There is a serious imbalance between the martial arts and literary scenes, which led some people to give full marks for the martial arts scenes and zero marks for the literary scenes.

about this.

The blame naturally fell on Zhen Zilun's head.

Zhen Ziluan is not good at literary dramas, so if you want to stand out, you have to focus on martial arts scenes. In addition, he is also the action director, so he can't pass the blame on.

Fortunately, despite all the criticism, the box office results in mainland China and other places are still acceptable.

The celebration banquet of Dragon Tiger Gate was able to proceed as usual.

Although he wasn't as happy as Li Luo, at least he could force himself to laugh.

The time came to August 18th.

Seeing the huge success of Crazy Stone, Zhang Guoli, together with a group of popular actors, ambitiously plunged into the battle of the summer vacation season with his latest work "The 601st Call".

Hu Ge, the new popular actor after Li Luo.

Many people in the media are very optimistic that he can shine on the big screen like Li Luo.

Zhou Bichang became famous all over the country with her Super Girl singing voice. Before the movie was released, her fans shouted the slogan that they would monopolize the box office of 50 million.

Add to that the popular actress, Star Girl Zhang Baizhi.

Zhang Guoli is full of confidence.

He even made a bold statement at the premiere that if the movie couldn't even get 30 million at the box office, he would never make a movie again and would just go back to filming his own TV series.

Under the attention of the public, The 601st Call officially landed in theaters.

In an extremely ferocious manner.

It was a box office disaster.

The first day box office in Beijing didn’t even break 100,000!!!
It's really jaw-dropping.

I thought it could take over the baton from Crazy Stone and boost the morale of domestic films during the summer vacation, but I didn't expect that my hand would be broken by a stick as soon as I stretched it out, and it ended up in a disgrace.

This is totally unfunny.

Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Li Luo couldn't help smacking his lips.

I even called Zhang Guoli the day before yesterday to wish him great box office success.

And he said he would help him promote it today.

Not bad now.

Congratulations in vain!
Shaking his head, he continued reading the news.

However, after what has happened now, no one should think that the success of Crazy Stone is a fluke. If you want to weigh the weight of this movie, you can try it openly.

"We're here, Luoge."

He didn't know how much time had passed before the driver's shout brought his attention away from the newspaper.

At this time, we have arrived at the wind and rain corridor of a hotel.

Looking at the situation outside.

Li Luo quickly put on the sunglasses placed aside.

Pull the door and get out.

Show your smile handsomely.

These movements were done in one go, and there was nothing impeccable about the manners.

As his feet landed steadily on the ground, crackling flashes of light quickly came towards him, and five or six reporters excitedly pressed the shutter button, freezing his dashing figure in the camera.

Before I had time to observe the surrounding environment, a tall etiquette lady came forward with flowers in her hands.

The girl first looked at Li Luo's bright smile shyly.

Then she gave the bouquet of flowers with a pounding heart.

"Thank you."

After thanking him politely, Li Luo happily grasped Li Silin's hand and said, "Mr. Li, why did you make such a big scene for me?"

"Of course, of course."

Li Silin laughed so hard that his mouth couldn't close and shook his arm vigorously: "Congratulations on the box office success of your movie Crazy Stone. Has it exceeded 40 million now?"

The new play is about to be aired.

The happiest thing is that the leading actor is in the limelight.

The popular stone has no idea how much publicity it has brought to itself.

“Almost five thousand.”

Li Luo showed his white teeth.

"Tsk!"

Li Silin was so envious that he didn't know what to say.

With a cost of only four million, it has now successfully leveraged the box office more than ten times. No matter who is the box office champion this year, it is definitely not as impressive as the other party's results, and the profit is huge.

"let me introduce."

After coming to his senses, he quickly introduced the person next to him: "This is Director Zhou from Qilu TV Station."

"This is Li Luo."

"Our actor who plays Xue Rengui."

As Li Silin introduced himself, the two of them clasped their hands tightly together.

In addition to the deputy director of the TV station, there is also the director of the film purchasing department and the two hosts who will be recording the next program.

Such a warm welcome.

To be honest, Li Luo was quite surprised.

But when I noticed the camera on the side, everything became natural again.

Face is given to each other.

He politely shook hands with everyone one by one.

At the invitation of the reporters, everyone looked at the camera with smiles on their faces, leaving behind a series of photos with different expressions.

After paying close attention to the box office situation for more than ten days, a call from Li Silin asked him to board a plane again and go directly to Ji City with his assistant to attend the launch ceremony of "The Legend of Xue Rengui" held there.

As the sequel to Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties, Qilu TV paid a high price to grab the first broadcast rights of this TV series.

I hope to attract more attention from advertisers.

As the leading actor, he naturally needs to come over to help hold up the scene.

You can't just take that much pay for nothing.

"Good afternoon, Li Luo."

After the photos were taken, the reporters rushed forward impatiently: "Welcome to Ji City, I wonder how you feel now?"

The leaders who had just taken photos together stepped aside.

Watching all this with a smile on his face.

If the male lead is not popular, how can he have the nerve to ask advertisers for a high price?

Some small change goes into the pocket.

Any courtesy is deserved.

"very good."

Li Luo maintained a standard smile and looked around the camera: "This is not the first time I've come here. When I was promoting Crazy Stone, I had the honor of coming to Ji City with the crew members."

"The audience in Ji City was very enthusiastic and left a very deep impression on me at the time."

“It’s just that the trip was too rushed.”

“I hope this time I’ll have the opportunity to visit the world-famous springs.”

You speak the same language as you eat.

Being polite to others is never a bad thing. After hearing these flattering words, the reporters became visibly happy. Everyone likes to be praised for their hometown.

After chatting for a while about the topic of crazy stone, Li Luo quickly turned the conversation back to the legend of Xue Rengui.

Don't let reporters stray from the topic.

only.

There are always some inappropriate voices coming out.

"Crazy Stone performed extremely well during the summer vacation, bringing a lot of glory to our domestic films."

One of the reporters passed the microphone forward and said, "But the box office of the 601st Phone Call, which was released yesterday, was quite average. As a senior, do you have anything to say to Hu Ge?"

"There's also Zhang Guoli's statement that he would stop making movies if the box office didn't reach 30 million."

"What do you think?"

"Thank you."

After a brief thought, Li Luo kept smiling: "I dare not say that I am bringing honor to domestic films. In fact, I am just like Mr. Guo Li, and I want to offer more and better works to the audience."

"Besides, I'm not some senior, so don't call me old for no reason!"

Amid the laughter of the reporters, he continued with a smile: "I watched the 601st call. Hu Ge's performance was very good. He is a good actor, and Mr. Guo Li is also a good director."

"if you can."

"Please support our domestic films."

"Thank you!"

He has no time to rest during this period, so how could he be so idle as to watch a movie mainly aimed at fans?

But it doesn't affect telling lies with open eyes.

Even if it doesn't help, it's better than kicking someone when they're down.

After satisfying the reporters' desire for interviews, Li Luo politely ended his communication with these uncrowned kings, and walked into the hotel with Li Silin, the station director and others, greeting each other.

"Hey~"

Looking at his tall back, some reporters couldn't help but smile.

"what happened?"

The supporting actor arrived just in time.

"Li Luo seems to have just graduated last year, right? He doesn't look like a newcomer at all!"

The reporter looked at the photos in the camera and couldn't help shaking his head and sighing, "At the age of 24, he quickly became a first-tier star and invested in a low-budget movie that was a big hit at the box office."

"In fact, with this guy's usual arrogant image, I thought he would be so arrogant."

“I didn’t expect the real person to be so humble.”

"Yes!"

A voice that joined in the conversation also sighed, "It turns out that people who can become popular are not simple. If Li Luo can keep up this attitude, I think he will still be popular!"

“It’s actually good that such people can continue to be popular.”

The discussion continued, and someone sneered, "The Ziwei who came last time wanted to look down on people with her chin. I want to see how long she can stay popular."

Voices of agreement rang out one after another.

After getting the news they wanted, the satisfied reporters quickly dispersed.

A gust of hot wind whistled by.

It kicked up some dust and then spiraled upwards.

After wandering around, we arrived at the business floor of the hotel.

It just so happened.

The door here was also opened with a click.

Several people came into the room and invited each other to sit down in the living room.

"We are short on time."

Li Silin tapped his watch and looked at Li Luo, asking for his opinion: "We have to record the show tonight and tomorrow morning, so why don't you hold on for a while longer? Let's discuss the process first."

Regardless of whether it is luck or ability, the fact is that the other party has a very popular movie in his hands.

That being the case.

Those are film and television investors like myself.

Although there is a difference in strength, their identities are the same.

Therefore, Li Silin's tone at this time was a little more polite than in previous contacts.

Or rather.

It is more equal and formal!
"no problem."

Li Luo took Director Zhou's cigarette and nodded to the others with a smile: "We are not here for fun this time, our work is more important!"

He puffed on the cigarette he had passed through his mouth.

He was chatting and laughing with the TV station leaders.

As Li Silin continued to make calls, old partners he had worked with appeared before him one after another.

The first thing was a very personal laugh.

Zhang Tielin appeared in front of everyone.

The pretty Jin Qiao walked quickly into the room, congratulated Li Luo and gave him a hug.

And then.

It was Bian Xiaoxiao who was jumping for joy with excitement.

In this TV series, she plays the original wife of Xue Rengui. Although her role is much less than the first and second female roles, Li Silin thought that she is a contracted artist of Li Luo, so he simply did her a favor.

Let her come and promote it together to help increase the exposure.

Resist the urge to kiss her.

Bian Xiaoxiao pinched Li Luo like lightning, then found a seat on the sofa and sat down.

Ji Chunhua, one of the main villains in the drama, also came to attend the launch ceremony.

That boiled egg-like bald head is very recognizable.

This is a professional villain.

As long as he can handle this kind of special role well and can still act well, he will definitely have a job in the circle. Wang Xun, who just signed the contract, is going to develop in this direction.

In fact, for most actors, it’s already very good to be able to hold on to a job as a major supporting role!

Although I can't make a lot of money like the protagonist.

As long as the acting offers keep up and you can make hundreds of millions a year, you can still live a fulfilling life.

"Feel sorry."

The apology sounded, and the beautiful woman, whose whiteness was almost greasy, bowed repeatedly and walked in: "Sorry, I was just packing up, I hope I didn't delay your time?"

The dark blue jeans stretched her plump legs tightly.

The bulging black T-shirt she was wearing made her already fair skin look even whiter.

As she walked, her short, cute hair swung left and right.

It adds a bit of girlishness to her.

There were quite a few beautiful women in the room, but when Li Xiaoran appeared, most of the men couldn't help but glance at her.

Zhang Tielin took a quick look and then glanced at Li Luo calmly.

This woman is really a beauty that brings disaster.

I had warned Li Luo when we were filming, but I didn't expect an accident to happen later. I thought this guy was in trouble, but I didn't expect that another person would also have an accident.

This matter left him completely confused.

Subsequent developments.

It made him even more confused.

So quietly, it was as if the incident had never happened.

Now words.

There should be a clue.

Zhang Tielin's eyes rolled around as he looked back and forth at Li Luo and Li Xiaoran, trying to determine their current situation.

“Everyone just arrived.”

Li Silin waved his hand and said casually, "Please sit down and make the best use of the time to talk about things."

After a quick glance around, Li Xiaoran walked towards the sofa. She nodded slightly to the smoking man, then moved her plump buttocks and sat down steadily beside him.

"Whoo~"

Zhang Tielin exhaled a very long stream of smoke and let it float in the air.

Thanks to kar98 brother Huoshaogun for the reward of coins, thank you!
