China Entertainment Times 1999

Chapter 84 "Journey to the West" is launched! (Please subscribe! Get more updates with a monthly ticket!)

Network was originally Lin Xuan's weakest link, but now.

Director, producer, screenwriter, martial artist, actor, star...

The energy of his circle of friends cannot be underestimated.

This also means that her role as an agent is getting lower and lower.

There was nothing Wang Jinhua could do about this.

Lin Xuan's contract has not been revised yet.

It's not that she doesn't want to change, but that Lin Xuan doesn't want to change.

The liquidated damages in the original contract were only 50.

Once the two of them fall out due to some conflict, Lin Xuan can directly pay to buy out the contract.

If the contract is changed now, although the revenue share can be increased, the liquidated damages will start at least 300 million.

He could still tell the difference between the light and the heavy.

But Wang Jinhua will definitely have to discuss a new contract with him by the end of the year at the latest.

.........

The day after signing the contract, Lin Xuan received a call from Qian Yanqiu.

"Journey to the West" will premiere on Qin Provincial TV Station during prime time.

At first, the shooting incident caused a big fuss. Now, half a year later, this ill-fated TV series is finally about to be released.

The entertainment media naturally would not let this topic go, and they recounted what happened six months ago again.

In order to create new topics, several media outlets also proposed a conspiracy theory.

It was said that the original beating incident by the crew was actually directed and acted by Lin Xuan and Qian Yanqiu.

The reason was that Qian Yanqiu and Cao Rong had a conflict over the revision of the script.

However, the employer supported Cao Rong, which made Qian Yanqiu very angry.

So he secretly contacted Lin Xuan and asked him to find a way to discredit Cao Rong.

Lin Xuan used the cigarette butt incident to make things worse, and even beat people up, successfully driving Cao Rong out of the crew.

In the end, Qian Yanqiu became the director and Lin Xuan became the starring role, a win-win situation!
After reading the newspaper, Lin Xuan felt Spartan.

Amazing, I never thought this matter could be interpreted this way.

The editor who made up this story is really a talent.

Lin Xuan was not mute. He immediately called Wang Jinhua and refuted such remarks in a well-connected newspaper.

He also bluntly ridiculed this group of unscrupulous media and wanted to boost performance at the end of the year.

This incident caused a lot of discussion, and thanks to their help, the popularity of "Journey to the West" continued to rise before it was aired.

Many people have heard about this and want to see what the show will be like without Xiang Gang's martial arts director.

At eight o'clock in the evening, as the absolute star of this drama, Lin Xuan sat in front of the TV on time.

"I want to become a fairy, happy as heaven..."

Familiar music played, and Lin Xuan smiled happily, lying on the sofa watching a show.

The opening and ending songs of this show are so classic.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Xuan did not dare to get involved.

Whether it is Liu Huan's "I Want to Become an Immortal" or Mao Amin's "Lovesickness", they are not something he can touch.

After the opening song ends, the plot begins directly without any lengthy character introductions.

Sun Wukong, played by Lin Xuan, appeared on the screen.

His performance is not like a six-year-old child directly imitating a monkey.

The Sun Wukong in the play has become a Buddha. With Buddha nature, he naturally needs to be a little more stable.

At the same time, the naughty and active nature of monkeys should also be taken into consideration.

How to find the right balance between movement and stillness is the key to playing the aggressive and victorious Buddha.

Lin Xuan watched two episodes and felt pretty good about himself.

There is no problem with his and several actors' performances.

The plot is compact and the logic is clear. I can’t say how excellent the filming is. It will definitely surpass the original version.

He guessed that the leading actors in the crew were also watching TV, so he sent them messages and congratulated each other.

At noon the next day, Lin Xuan was browsing forum posts in his apartment, mainly reading reviews of TV series.

[Last night's "Journey to the West" was so good!The plot is very interesting. It tells the story of people who learn from Buddhist scriptures. 】

Hehe, you have a discerning eye!

[Sun Wukong is actually played by Lin Xuan!I only discovered it after watching the credits, and there was Qiao Linger! 】

Did you just get access to the Internet at home? This matter has been spread all over the place for a long time.

[Sun Wukong is so handsome, he can play with sticks beautifully, and Lin Xuan's acting skills are amazing. 】

Well, if you can speak, speak more.

[The clothes worn by Fighting Buddha are also very handsome. I heard that they were designed by Lin Xuan himself. 】

Yes, I keep the armor at home.

[What is Lin Xuan doing!Humans are not like humans, and monkeys are not like monkeys! 】

Just as he was typing on the keyboard and fighting fiercely with the anti-fans, Qian Yanqiu called.

"Lin Xuan, what do you think the ratings for the premiere are?"

He put down the keyboard and said, "You sound quite excited. I guess it's at least five points."

"Eight points! 8% first broadcast ratings!" Qian Yanqiu shouted excitedly.

"Really!" Lin Xuan stood up excitedly.

8 points for the premiere is a very scary number.

As long as the follow-up plot does not stretch the crotch, the final ratings will have a chance to exceed 15%.

What is the concept of 15%?

The concept of having a chance to hit the annual ratings championship!
"Kangxi Dynasty", which will be filmed next year, has an average ratings of only 13%!
In addition to being well-produced, there are several reasons why this drama has achieved astonishing ratings.

The beating incident during filming and conspiracy theories before the show attracted a lot of attention to the show.

The time of the premiere was also chosen very cleverly.

At this time, the Spring Festival is approaching, and primary and secondary school students across the country are on vacation, and they are the main force watching this drama.

Those romantic TV series have no appeal to them. Monkey King is the hero in the hearts of children.

It is foreseeable that after the TV series is broadcast, there will definitely be children waving sticks in the streets.I don’t know how many vegetable and flower fields will suffer.

"Congratulations, Director Qian will no longer have to worry about investing in TV series in the future!"

This is true. Although there are many directors in the Mainland, not many can produce TV series with ratings exceeding ten.

Name them, they are all well-known big shots in the industry.

Now, Qian Yanqiu will join them.

"Same joy! From now on, I don't have to read any scripts looking for you to play the second male lead."

The ratings of "Journey to the West" have exploded, and the leading actors like them can get a lot of dividends from it.

As the first male and the fifth male, Lin Xuan had the biggest piece of cake.

The two of them were in a good mood as they complimented each other on business.

After hanging up Director Qian's call, within a few seconds, the phone rang again.

Some actors from the same crew called to congratulate each other.

There were actors I knew from other crew members who called to try to make friends.

Hey, this is true in every circle.

As long as you have the skills, you will have friends and buddies everywhere.

Although many actors did not contact each other after breaking up, Lin Xuan did not turn his back on them and remained polite.

…………

As the new year was approaching, Lin Xuan gave Baoqiang a holiday in advance and asked him to go home early to spend time with his family.

In the next few days, he stayed in the capital to eat, drink and chat with some friends.

He also visited several seniors he knew with gifts and wished them good years in advance.

It wasn't until the 29th that he took a flight back to his hometown in the provincial capital.

After landing, he rented a commercial vehicle in the provincial capital and went straight to the largest shopping mall in the area.

Household appliances, tobacco, alcohol and supplements...

Lin Xuan bought a lot of things, filled the trunk and back seat of the business car, and then drove all the way back to his hometown.

My hometown is located in a small county town in the mountains.

The transportation here is inconvenient and the economy is not developed, so it is difficult for news from outside to spread.

It is a semi-paradise state.

Not long after Lin Xuan traveled through time, he contacted the old couple.

But they didn't reveal much. They only knew that Lin Xuan made money as an actor.

Lin Xuan also specifically told them not to make any noise.

He takes over other people's bodies and systems, and it is his duty to take care of his parents.

But forget about those annoying seven aunts and eight aunts.

No one asks the poor in the downtown area, and the rich has distant relatives in the mountains.

Once they know about Lin Xuan's prosperity, they will definitely want to take advantage, and Lin Xuan should not be taken advantage of.

Back home, Lin Xuan told the old couple what had happened in the past few years.

The couple couldn't help but shed tears when they learned that their precious son had suffered so much outside.

Lin Xuan could only comfort them, that was in the past, now he is better, he is famous, and he is making money.

He carried the contents of the car home, and his parents were shocked.

With so many things, you emptied the supermarket.

Lin Xuan typed out the tobacco and alcohol supplements, introduced their uses one by one, and taught them how to take them.

Many electrical appliances at home have been used for too many years, such as TVs, and they are still black and white.

Lin Xuan was worried about safety risks, so he sold all these worn-out electrical appliances to garbage recycling stations.

Then a master will come to your home to install and debug all the new appliances, and Lin Xuan will teach them how to use them.

Leaving aside other electrical appliances, the couple likes the newly purchased 24-inch color TV.

He said that with a big color TV, he would be able to watch his son’s TV series in the future.

Lin Xuan was a little moved and sad, pitying the hearts of parents all over the world.

He immediately said that there is no point in waiting until later to watch my TV series.

On New Year's Eve, Lin Xuan first helped his father put up Spring Festival couplets and burn incense to honor his ancestors.

Then I helped my mother prepare the New Year’s Eve dinner in the evening.

He is such a good cook, it would be a shame not to show off his skills.

That night, the family of three sat around the TV, eating New Year's Eve dinner and watching TV.

Of course I watched "Journey to the West".

The couple were very excited when they saw their son playing Sun Wukong.

In their eyes, being able to appear in the four famous works is the greatest recognition of your leadership.

Hmm...there's actually nothing wrong with thinking that way.

At this point the show is halfway through its broadcast.

Seeing Qiao Linger, who was dressed in white and as gentle as jade, appear on the stage, they smiled even more happily.

This dress is so beautiful and my son is so handsome!

Lin Xuan was also quite proud, but as he looked at it, he realized something was wrong.

The plot comes when Qiao Ling'er is kidnapped by Chen Wuzhen and learns that he is the reincarnation of Buddha and that if you sleep with him, you can become an immortal.

Chen Wuzhen took off his clothes to seduce him. When Qiao Ling'er refused, she used a spell, and the next morning they lay naked together.

The old couple saw that the plot was so exciting that they didn't even eat and stared straight at the TV.

Hold the grass, so embarrassing!

Lin Xuan's scalp was numb and his toes were digging into the ground.

"Mom and Dad, change the channel and watch the Spring Festival Gala."

"If you don't watch it, the Spring Festival Gala is boring."

Seeing this, Lin Xuan could only cover his head in despair.
