Zhao Yilin went to the party Xu Tianwen mentioned because they shared the same interests. They were all familiar faces, and she met some acquaintances she hadn't seen for a long time, such as Gao Yulin.

Unexpectedly, Yang Zhishui was also there. He could get involved in any circle. It seemed that I had underestimated him before.

As soon as Yang Zhishui saw her, he greeted her cheerfully, "Hi, Yilin, long time no see." He finally stopped calling her Li Jun'er.

Zhao Yilin answered him without thinking: "It's not been a long time since we last met. Didn't we just meet at the press conference of "Ex-Files"? "

Yang Zhishui smiled and said nothing, leading her in. This party was initiated by Xu Tianwen, so she should meet him first.

When Xu Tianwen saw Zhao Yilin, he enthusiastically pulled a chair for her and said, "Come, Yilin, sit here."

"Thank you, Director Xu."

Zhao Yilin sat down obediently. Next to her was Director Gao Yulin. "Long time no see, Xiao Zhao."

Zhao Yilin smiled and said, "Hello, Director Gao." Gao Yulin had just won the Golden Lily Award for Best Director not long ago, but the two did not meet at the award ceremony.

After Yang Zhishui led Zhao Yilin over, he naturally sat down next to her. Knowing that she would be nervous in an unfamiliar environment, he stayed by her side considerately.

Seeing that all the invited guests were present, Xu Tianwen stated the main purpose of this gathering. "You are all elites in the film and television industry, and you really want to make good works. This time we brought everyone together to change the bad atmosphere in the film and television industry."

With Xu Tianwen’s introduction, everyone started to complain.

"How many actors nowadays are serious about filming? Especially those traffic stars, they are just trying to make money from their fans and only care about being cool and pretty."

Zhao Yilin and Yang Zhishui, who were sitting at the scene, looked at each other. Strictly speaking, they are both traffic stars with many fans.

"Not to mention taking the filming seriously, even their attitude is very bad. They have delicate bodies, and if they get a little skin scratched, they have to go to the hospital."

Yang Zhishui thought of Zhao Yilin's back injury from filming, so he whispered in Zhao Yilin's ear, "How is your back injury? Is it better?"

Zhao Yilin nodded, "Yeah, much better. Don't talk, just listen carefully."

"The makeup is whatever looks good, it doesn't fit the character's requirements at all."

"Also, the actors' salaries are too high. Most of the production costs are spent on the actors, which leads to rough post-production." Someone else echoed, "Yes, I hope the higher authorities can take care of these things."

Zhao Yilin listened to everyone's speeches very seriously. She knew that some actors in the entertainment industry were unwilling to film properly and used a lot of stand-ins and cutouts. They did not integrate into the role at all, and even pretended to eat.

Everyone expressed their opinions, but seeing that Zhao Yilin and Yang Zhishui remained silent, they thought of their current traffic and thought they had a misunderstanding.

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Zhao, why are you not talking? Although you are also popular stars, you are also good actors, otherwise we wouldn't have asked you to come."

Yang Zhishui thought for a moment, "I think capital is too prevalent now, and all walks of life are controlled. People who really want to work hard are hard to be taken seriously, and those who know how to play tricks are the king."

Yang Zhishui's words were highly recognized by Zhao Yilin, who kept nodding her head. "It will probably be difficult for us to change this situation."

Gao Yulin said: "Xiao Zhao, you have done it. Over the years, you have gradually broken the blockade of capital on this circle. Your achievements are obvious to all."

His words made Zhao Yilin blush. "In fact, I am where I am today with everyone's help. Just like when we were filming Gu Qianhua, if it wasn't for Director Gao's insistence, I might have been replaced a long time ago."

Xu Tianwen quickly pointed out, "In fact, this is not just a problem with the actors. The directors, screenwriters, and producers all have problems. Everyone is only thinking about how to make more money, and rarely considers the quality of the work."

He sighed and continued, "In fact, I have long discovered that Chinese actors are no longer competitive in the international arena. It is also difficult for the film and television works they produce to gain recognition from international professionals. Just look at how many people have won international awards in recent years."

"The market is not good either. Few movies and TV series made now dare to be released to the international market. They simply cannot enter the market."

Gao Yulin expressed a different opinion, "There are some exceptions, like Xiao Zhao's recent work "Along with You" is very good, but she is the only one."

Someone jokingly said, "Director Gao, I noticed that you pay a lot of attention to Xiao Zhao."

Yang Zhishui's radar alarm sounded. Could it be that Gao Yulin also had some feelings for Zhao Yilin? They were of similar age and had worked together many times, so it was not impossible.

Zhao Yilin quickly explained: "Director Gao can be considered my mentor. My current achievements are inseparable from Director Gao's support." After hearing this, Yang Zhishui felt a little more at ease.

At this time, Xu Tianwen took over the conversation: "Therefore, the purpose of our gathering this time is to discuss how to improve the current situation, produce more high-quality works, and revitalize China's film and television industry." Everyone expressed their agreement.

Afterwards, everyone started a heated discussion and put forward many constructive opinions and suggestions. Zhao Yilin and Yang Zhishui also actively participated in it and shared some of their own views.

Before they knew it, the party was drawing to a close. Xu Tianwen concluded, "Today's discussion was very fruitful. I hope we can work together to contribute to China's film and television industry." Everyone responded and said they would go all out.

After returning from the party, Zhao Yilin was still thinking about this question. She was now a wealthy and famous actress in the film and television industry. She had accumulated a lot of wealth and popularity. Could she use these two advantages to do something big?

She expressed her ideas to Xie Hanling, Su Wen, Chen Liyuan and Wang Ping. She thought they would strongly oppose it, but they all agreed.

"Great, Yilin, you should have done this a long time ago. I knew that your achievements would go beyond just winning a few awards."

"I can help you find actors."

“I can provide the funds.”

Zhao Yilin was a little panicked. She herself didn't know what to do specifically, so how did they arrange it?

"What do you want me to do? Invest in making a movie myself?"

Su Wen already had an idea in mind, "No, you have to start your own company. Then gather together those like-minded actors, screenwriters, and directors who really want to produce works seriously, and produce masterpieces seriously."

Well, this is a big decision, she needs to think about it.
