Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 602: The Confrontation between the Two Beauties of the Western Region

"I asked Teacher Nanxun if he could guide me, a young actor, when there are suitable projects in the future."

Before Lin Li could speak, Tong Liya smiled at Reba.

Tong Liya's voice is just like her face, with a slight turn at the end, very delicate.

Damn it!
Reba spat inwardly.

This deliberately staggered sound is very obvious.

"Sister Yaya is so beautiful. I believe Ali will think of Sister Yaya if there is a suitable role."

"Ali, are you right?"

Reba turned her gaze towards Lin Li and spoke in a friendly tone.

When Tong Liya heard Reba's address to Lin Li, the corners of her eyes slightly raised and she curled her lips secretly.

Who doesn't know about your relationship?
Is it necessary to show off in front of me?
"Of course, Ms. Tong Liya is both beautiful and has great acting skills. It is great to have the opportunity to work with her."

"But I don't think Director Chen will necessarily give me this opportunity, and Director Chen's films are all very good. I would like to learn from Director Chen if I have the chance."

Lin Li was polite at first, then changed the subject and praised Chen Sicheng.

Speaking of Chen Sicheng, Lin Li still has some admiration for him.

Chen Sicheng can be said to be the second generation of Feng Xiaogang, but he is smarter than Feng Xiaogang.

How did Feng Xiaogang become famous?
He first worked as Wang Shuo's younger brother, and the two of them opened a film company together. Later, when Wang Shuo got into trouble, Feng Xiaogang distanced himself from the name Wang Shuo.

Later, Feng Xiaogang adapted Wang Shuo's novel You Are Not a Vulgar Person into a movie Party A Party B, which was a huge success at the box office. Huayi paid for its promotion, and mainland New Year films entered the Feng-style comedy era.

What’s funny is that Feng Xiaogang deleted the name of the original author Wang Shuo at the beginning of Party A and Party B.

After Feng Xiaogang became famous, he also became a playboy. He gave up his ten-year marriage with Zhang Di and got involved with Xu Fan, but he remained a playboy.

For example, the overnight scandal with Phoenix TV hostess Shen Yan.

Looking at a broader picture, almost all of Feng Xiaogang's works are adaptations of novels by top writers such as Wang Shuo, Liu Zhenyun, Wang Gang, Shi Kang, Li Xiaoming, and Yan Geling.

His greatest talent is to capture the style and soul of these writers.

Director Ye Jing, who is also a big shot in the Beijing circle, once commented on Feng Xiaogang, saying that his greatest intelligence is that he is good at learning from and making use of people who are smarter than him. If he hears a joke from others, he can use it the next day.

Let’s look back at Chen Sicheng’s road to fame.

He first became famous for a while after filming Soldiers Assault, but was later surpassed by other actors in Soldiers Assault, such as Li Chen, Duan Yihong and Zhang Yi.

Not to mention Wang Baoqiang, his rising speed is comparable to cheating.

Later, Chen Sicheng became a director, and a group of brothers from Soldiers Assault came to support him. Li Chen contributed the prototype of the script and used his connections to attract producers, actors and half of the crew to film a love story in Beijing for him, which was a great success after it was broadcast.

However, behind Chen Sicheng's success, he sold out his brothers. He edited the film so that he appeared to be the lead actor, saying that he wrote and directed the film himself, and took all the credit for himself.

The result was that Zhang Yi bluntly told the media that he would not contact him. He was later sued by screenwriter Li Yaling, and Li Chen also broke off his friendship with him for a while.

After becoming famous with Beijing Love Story, he and Tong Liya became the most popular screen CP at the time, so the two began to use their status as a couple to attract traffic.

After starring in Watchmen: Lost in 11, he locked onto the suspense and mystery film market, and then began to learn from others, making guest appearances in similar films such as Uniform and Witness.

After returning from his studies in 14, he first used the big IP of the Northern Ireland TV series to shoot a movie of the same name, gaining a foothold in the film market and obtaining investment from Wanda Film and Television.

Later, Chen Sicheng combined comedy + mystery + suspense, launched the "Detective Chinatown" series, and monopolized the domestic suspense and mystery film market.

Su Youpeng has actually tried this type of movie.

In 10, Su Youpeng invested 200 million to shoot the movie "The Secret Room", which earned more than 4000 million at the box office. After the success of making a small profit with a big investment, he embarked on this path.

After that, he filmed a series of suspense films such as The Unreliable Chamber and The Devotion of Suspect X.

But the difference between Su Youpeng and Chen Sicheng is that neither of them turned a movie into an IP.

After Chen Sicheng monopolized the domestic suspense and mystery film market, capital has been knocking on his door. For example, the later "The Accidental Murderer" was originally directed by Hao Lei, but the first producer, Hengye Film and Television's boss Chen Hui, had no confidence in Hao Lei's box office, so he found Chen Sicheng for cooperation through Xiao Yang.

误杀从19年2月份开始版权谈判，再到5月份开机、7月份杀青、12月份上映。

Which investor would not like this efficiency from production to output, and box office after release?
Chen Sicheng's most sophisticated move was to change his previous practice of taking all the credit for himself and start supporting newcomers in large numbers.

For example, he lets directors such as Ke Wenli, Dai Xing, Yao Wenyi, and Lai Mukuan use the fame of his Detective Chinatown IP to direct online dramas.

What is the purpose of doing this?
Of course, they want to weave a network of capital, directors, screenwriters, and actors with themselves as the core in the circle, expand their own sphere of influence, and get a bigger piece of the film market pie.

Similarly, Chen Sicheng and Feng Xiaogang are equally romantic.

Not to mention the scandals after his marriage with Tong Liya, many videos and photos were exposed after their marriage, and in recent years, there have been frequent rumors of divorce.

But one thing is that he is really nice to Wang Baoqiang.

When Wang Baoqiang ran out of money in the later stages of his movie Octagon, Chen Sicheng backed him up with the money.

The reason why I say "again" is that after Wang Baoqiang was embezzled by his ex-wife and agent, Chen Sicheng paid for the divorce lawsuit.

Apart from anything else, Sanduo and Chengcai's efforts over the years have not been in vain.

Chen Sicheng is both a brother and a benefactor to Wang Baoqiang.

Chen Sicheng can be said to be the embodiment of success in reality.

Smart, narcissistic, capable, good at dealing with people, and good at taking advantage of various opportunities and resources.

A bit selfish, doesn't care much about friendship, and breaks up with friends without any hesitation.

But he is very good to his only brother Wang Baoqiang.

This is also what Lin Li admires most about him.

This guy truly lives up to the saying that brothers are like limbs and women are like clothes.

It is not clear whether this guy offered this charming beauty to the boss voluntarily or was forced to do so.

Lin Li felt that judging from his past behavior, it was most likely the former.

"How can he compare to you, Teacher Nanxun?"

"And to be honest, when he called me this afternoon, he also told me that if he could talk to you, he would let me say hello to you."

"This person in our family thinks highly of you."

Tong Liya raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and her smile was so charming that tears almost dripped from the corners of her eyes.

There was a flash of surprise in Lin Li's eyes, and he secretly sighed that wives are indeed different.

She looks gentle and quiet, but she becomes charming with just a smile.

No wonder the head of the Ministry of Rites couldn't help it. It would be hard for him not to be moved!
"Please thank Director Chen for me, and also ask Teacher Tong Liya to say hello to him for me."

Lin Li looked calm and smiled at her.

"Definitely bring it."

"Also, Teacher Nanxun, you are too polite. How dare I be called teacher in front of you? Just call me Yaya."

Tong Liya's Jieyu trembled slightly, and she smiled with curved eyes.

"In that case, I'll call you Sister Yaya just like Reba."

Lin Li glanced at Reba beside him, and couldn't help but smile when he met her warning look. Then he looked at Tong Liya and smiled.

Reba immediately smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this, then moved closer to Lin Li.

"That's great, of course. I don't know how many people will envy me for being called Sister Yaya by you." Tong Liya looked delighted and her tone rose a little.

"Sister Yaya, you are too kind."

"Today I was able to see two of the three beauties of Xinjiang, and they were very kind to my eyes."

"Speaking of which, Sister Yaya and Reba are from the same hometown. It's rare to see them in the circle on weekdays. We have to chat more today."

Lin Li glanced back and forth at Reba and Tong Liya in front of him, sighing.

"I can't compare to Reba. She is young, but I am old."

Tong Liya's face was full of smiles. She glanced at Reba beside her and spoke modestly.

"Sister Yaya, how can you be old? You look like you are 28 years old."

"Compared to Sister Yaya, I am still too young. I envy Sister Yaya's temperament."

Reba raised her pretty face slightly with an expression of admiration.

Only when she said the word "tender", her tone rose slightly.

"Reba, you are the one. You are so charismatic at such a young age. You are indeed a top female star. With your mature and sexy appearance, the boys who want to pursue you probably have to line up from Xingcheng to Beijing, right?"

Tong Liya's eyes moved, but she didn't change her smile and praised Reba.

"That's because you got married early, Sister Yaya, otherwise there would definitely be more people chasing after you."

"Sister Yaya is so beautiful, I believe Director Chen must be very good to her."

Reba grinned, revealing an innocent smile and said crisply.

Lin Li pursed his lips and almost couldn't help laughing.

Wow, our Fat Di is so cruel.

Tong Liya's eyes twitched slightly, and she tried hard to maintain a smile.

This little girl has a strong attacking power and she doesn't hesitate to expose people's scars.

Who in the circle doesn’t know what kind of person Chen Sicheng is?
What's the difference between what you said and slapping me in the face?
Tong Liya's eyes flickered, and when she saw Lin Li smiling beside her, her heart moved, and her red lips immediately curled up into an arc.

"My husband is very nice to me."

"But seeing how Nanxun treats you, Reba, I think you two must be very good friends too."

"If you make an official announcement someday, I won't be surprised at all."

"I really envy you, Reba. Even such an outstanding person as Teacher Nanxun is fascinated by you."

Tong Liya smiled brightly, as if she understood everything, and even winked at Reba.

The smile on Reba's face remained unchanged, but the corners of her grinning mouth silently retracted.

Many things are not secrets in the circle. Without mentioning Tian Xiwei's so-called slip of the hand, just looking at Chen Duling's seat at the premiere of "Youth" and her handling of Zhao Lusi on behalf of Lin Li, we can see her importance in Lin Li's heart.

If Lin Li really announces a girlfriend one day, it goes without saying who she will be.

And even if it wasn't Chen Duling, Tian Xiwei and Zhang Jingyi were more likely to be in that position than himself.

Tong Liya knew this very well, but still said this to herself, which was no different from making fun of herself.

"If our Reba beauty can be interested in me, I will definitely be willing."

"How about it, our beautiful Ms. Dilireba Dilmurat, can you consider me?"

Before Reba could figure out how to respond, Lin Li looked at her and interrupted.

Reba was stunned, and looking at Lin Li who seemed to be asking for her opinion, she felt deeply moved.

Her boyfriend is supporting her!

There was also a hint of surprise in Tong Liya's eyes. She didn't expect that someone of Lin Li's status would do such a thing for Reba. It was really... enviable!

Compared to her husband, I don’t know how many times better he is.

Chen Sicheng is very patriarchal and most of the time he uses her as proof of his charm.

This comparison clearly shows the superiority and inferiority.

"That depends on whether our teacher Nanxun is sincere enough. I'm very hard to pursue."

Reba raised her delicate chin, clasped her hands in front of her chest and said proudly.

"Can you give me a friendly reminder?"

“I try hard.”

Lin Li said with a thirst for knowledge expression.

"Well...it's not a good idea to say this out loud."

"Our teacher Nanxun is so smart, you should figure it out yourself."

"I'm not a girl that can be tricked away by a piece of candy."

Reba once again let out her baby voice and smiled as beautifully as a flower.

She was extremely beautiful, and with the red dress she was wearing today and the smile on her face, even though Lin Li was very familiar with her, he was still amazed.

As expected, she is the woman who has always ranked first in major beauty pageants, and even ranked second among the most beautiful faces in the world. Compared with Tong Liya's "I am the most beautiful in the world", Reba's words seem more convincing.

After all, she was able to stand out for her beauty just by watching a fashion show, and was spotted by Mimoto at first sight, becoming their first non-supermodel spokesperson. Mimoto has always been particularly fond of her and has been renewing the contract repeatedly.

"Then how about I create another play tailor-made for our beautiful Ms. Reba?"

"This should give me a chance, right?"

Lin Li's eyes were filled with smiles, and he said something so casually that both Reba and Tong Liya were stunned at the same time.

No, I was just saying it casually. What are you doing here?

Isn't it a bit too much of a show?

Tailored?

A drama from Nanxun Culture!

I am really impressed!!!
Tong Liya was roaring wildly in her heart, and she had the urge to turn around and leave immediately.

"I'm a little touched. He seems very sincere."

"In that case, I can think about it."

After coming to her senses, Reba gently touched her red lips with a green finger, her voice soft and sticky.

Her eyes and eyebrows were filled with smiles, the joy on her face could not be concealed at all, and the corners of her lips were raised high again.

She knew Lin Li, and what he said was definitely not a joke.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Tong Liya beside her, and the smile in her eyes became even brighter.

The smile on Tong Liya's face froze and she secretly clenched her hands.

I am just being mean!

bah bah bah!
