Artists under the Rebirth of the Coal Boss

Chapter 56 The value of the last Asian superstar singer in the domestic entertainment industry!!!
After Lin Xingzhuo made the call, he learned that this room on the fourth floor was originally an hourly room in the International Trade Building Hotel in the Film and Television City.

This is where the directors, producers, and casting directors of the hotel crew interview newcomers...

During peak season, it can also be used as a normal guest room.

…………

Lin Xingzhuo exhaled a puff of cigarette and asked, "How come you're doing so badly on the set of 'Sword Rain'? After all, you're just a supporting role."

Zhu Yilong said: "Friends from Hong Kong and Taiwan are more concerned about the number of four floors, and the hotel rooms are tight, so action director Dong Wei asked everyone to show some grace."

Lin Xingzhuo said: "You are too honest. If you have anything, call Ding Ye."

Zhu Yilong’s expression froze for a moment, as if he remembered something, and he quickly said, “No, don’t bother Brother Ye.”

"The composition of our crew is a bit special..."

"The female lead is Yang Ziqiong, an international action star from Malaysia. The male lead is Jung Woo-sung, the Blue Dragon Film Award winner from South Korea."

"Director Su Zhaolin, action director Dong Wei, and actors Yu Wenle and Lin Xilei are all from the Hong Kong circle."

"Supporting roles include Da Ace and Dai Liren from the Taibei Circle of Izu Island."

"Mainland actors include Wang Xueqin, Jiang Yiyan, Guo Xiaodong, and others..."

"Last month, the investors invited the famous Hollywood director Wu Yusen to be the producer."

"Wu Yusen also recommended Japanese photographer Mikiya Takimoto and art director Emi Takata."

Lin Xingzhuo's scalp tingled when he heard about such a hodgepodge of a crew. He said, "There are more translators than actors in each scene you're filming..."

Zhu Yilong said, "So, the situation is complicated. As a newcomer and nobody knows anything, I have to bear with it."

…………

The next day, Zhu Yilong took Lin Xingzhuo to have lunch on the set.

The dining area of ​​the "Sword Rain" crew is divided into four areas, providing three types of boxed lunches and a parking lot.

Special actors, supporting actors, and extras ate white foam lunch boxes in blue plastic boxes.

The mainland actors eat standard boxed lunches consisting of one meat and two vegetables: shredded pork with green peppers, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, pickled cabbage with vinegar and seaweed egg drop soup.

Artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan ate tofu and pork belly, bitter melon and beef, seasonal vegetables and red date and black chicken soup.

The Korean Blue Dragon Film Award winner, the Malaysian international action actress, and producer Wu who occasionally flies back from the United States usually eat directly in the RV.

…………

Zhu Yilong took two boxed lunches and handed one to Lin Xingzhuo, saying, "Brother Zhuo, the conditions here in Hengdian are quite difficult, so just make do with it."

Lin Xingzhuo took the white foam box, which contained rice with stir-fried shredded potatoes, bean sprouts, and a few slices of cabbage and fatty meat, and looked at Zhu Yillong.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME????
Zhu Yilong smiled awkwardly and said, "Brother Zhuo, please be patient and calm down for a while. I will treat you to a meal of Daimei when we return to the imperial capital."

Lin Xingzhuo closed the lunch box in annoyance and said, "What the hell is this! Forget it, let's eat some fruit..."

Lin Xingzhuo saw a large fruit platter of cherries, mulberries, peaches and raspberries on the buffet table over there, and prepared to get some.

Zhu Yilong quickly pulled him back and said, "No, that's for Zheng Yusheng. The assistant will bring it to the RV later..."

Lin Xingzhuo asked, "How can Jung Woo-sung's status be this high?"

Zhu Yilong ate bean sprouts and rice and said, "Brother Zhuo, there's nothing we can do. The Korean Wave is so popular. All the Korean stars are rising in fame..."

…………

Lin Xingzhuo is a clerk in the Film and Television Drama Review Department who entered the industry in 2009.

Regarding the terrifying influence of Korean Wave from the mid-2000s to 2016.

Of course there is a clear understanding.

However, the essence of the entertainment industry is to win!
Just keep winning and that’s it!

…………

So, Lin Xingzhuo pretended to be mysterious and asked, "Yilong, have you ever thought about the price of the Korean Wave being so powerful?"

Zhu Yilong chewed on the stir-fried potato shreds and asked doubtfully, "Brother Zhuo, what's the price?"

Lin Xingzhuo explained: "After raising a child to adulthood, the company only takes away his best years, and then abandons him and puts him on ice."

"How many children can I have to do this?"

"Not to mention that trainees have to leave their studies at a very young age, and after they stop being idols, they have almost no other job-seeking skills, so they can only become toys."

Zhu Yillong suddenly understood.

This tiny country is so short-sighted that it's overdrawing its future to develop its entertainment industry...

Lin Xingzhuo looked at the silly child in front of him, covered the foam lunch box, and said, "Don't eat this stuff, it's choking."

"Brother will take you out to eat..."

........................

In fact, Lin Xingzhuo’s real understanding of Korean Wave in his previous life was when he reviewed the Korean drama "Reply 1988" introduced by the iQiyi platform.

This Korean drama was introduced in April 2016.

The timing is very sensitive, and even the leadership at the unit is having trouble understanding the direction from above.

So, they remembered the department’s ancestral nuclear-powered ox-horses and forcibly converted them into mine-sweeping vehicles.

Step into the minefield...

This time, for the first time, leaders at all levels did not change a single word of the review report written by Lin Xingzhuo, and all of them agreed to it.

…………

At the beginning, when I first received this work assignment.

Lin Xingzhuo is not interested in Korean Wave at all and said he has never heard of it.

During the review process, I started to look up relevant information about Korean Wave, watched some videos, and listened to some Korean Wave music.

The result was embarrassing...

…………

Girls' Generation's "crab leg dance", Lee Jung-hyun's fan dance and pinky microphone, Goo Hara's pelvic hip twitch, Kim Hyun-a's sexy dance moves...

Before watching: There is no way I would betray the organization.

After watching: I’ve watched them all.

…………

There are also a bunch of familiar melodies such as QQ Speed, QQ Dance, shopping malls, square dancing, and the entrance music of the female guests of "If You Are the One".

The main thing is that I can’t remember the song titles, I don’t know the singers, but I remember every melody.

…………

This audit experience made Lin Xingzhuo realize.

The impact of the Korean Wave in the new millennium was so fierce and its influence was so strong that it is no exaggeration to say that it was a cultural invasion.

The hardest hit area is the Chinese entertainment industry.

........................

At the Baidu Boiling Point Awards Ceremony, facing the impact of the Korean Wave, King Zhou said:
"Don't let the Korean Wave become more and more arrogant! The Chinese Wave is the best!!"

The industry believes that this is just empty talk...

…………

I didn’t expect that King Zhou was serious! !
The song "Compendium of Materia Medica" topped the charts of major radio stations, beating Girls' Generation's "Gee", Super Junior's "Sorry, Sorry" and G-Dragon's "Heartbreaker".

Seeing how terrifying King Zhou is...

Powerful actors and veteran actors in the Chinese music scene have expressed their support.

For a time, everyone was united in fighting against the Korean Wave.

The Chinese entertainment industry stars shine at this moment!!!

At the time, online public opinion generally believed that this was a new starting point for the Chinese music scene...

…………

All we can say is that the millennial generation is still relatively simple-minded, has not experienced the baptism of the mobile Internet wave, and has not yet seen through the essence of the entertainment industry.

These people in the entertainment industry...

He talks all about doctrines, but his mind is all about business.

I just posted a post on Weibo this morning supporting the Chinese trend;
In the afternoon, the studio brought in the latest Chinese translated songs;

The next day, it was listed on the TOP Chinese popular song chart;
…………

For example: Pan Weibo, leader of the Chinese translation group, and Xin, deputy leader.

The team members include Zheng Xiuwen, Zhang Xinzhe, Sun Nan, Wang Xinlin, Chen Huilin, etc.

By 2015, data from the China Audio-Video Association showed that 65% of popular Chinese songs were covers of Korean songs.

Many singers’ masterpieces throughout their lives are covers of Chinese-translated songs.

Chinese music is facing a comprehensive crisis of originality.

…………

In fact, it was not until 2016, when the top leaders issued the order to kill demons.

The entire domestic entertainment industry is Jay Chou single-handedly fighting against the Korean Wave, and even against the entire Asian music scene, including the Chinese music scene.

This shows the value of the last Asian superstar singer in the Chinese music scene!!!
........................

At noon, the crew's lunch boxes of bean sprouts, cabbage and fatty meat contained a lethal amount of salt.

When Lin Xingzhuo and Zhu Yillong went out to find food, they wanted to take two bottles of Yilibao from the water rack in the crew's dining area to quench their thirst.

At this time, a man in a sweatshirt, jeans, and carrying a backpack, brought two field staff and directly moved three boxes of water away.

Lin Xingzhuo, Zhu Yilong:? ?
