Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 428 Guest Appearance (34)

"If Professor Do and Cheon Song-yi don't end up having sex, the world will never be a good place!"

How will Professor Do resolve his sex life issues?

Uh, a whole bunch of questions like these are being discussed online!
Director Sha Weiqi explained: "When we were setting up the character of Do Min-joon, we envisioned him as calm, restrained, and living an elegant life."

Knowledgeable, handsome, rich, considerate, intelligent, loyal, devoted... plus a virgin!
It's unlikely that someone with so many of these traits is a virgin.

But he has to be a virgin… so they added the saliva contact sensitivity thing… What happens next, you can watch the show to find out… I won't say more, you can ask Shen Yan!”

Shen Yan posted on Weibo: "There are kissing scenes in 'My Love from the Star'... but not many. I think idol dramas definitely have to be sweet, so there will be a whole episode of romantic dates later on... As for the bed scene that everyone is looking forward to, we didn't think that much about it at the time. We directly set up an intimate contact barrier for Do Min-joon, making him abstinent... so much so that it was not possible to add a scene later on!"

"Finally, we discussed it with the director and screenwriter, and mentioned it. Please stay tuned!"

"Just a side note: Just because Do Min-joon isn't good doesn't mean I am. Please don't take the character's actions as an example of the actor himself. I'm very strong!"

"By the way, I must say: I'm filming here, I'm working, so please don't come to visit the set, it will affect the normal operation of the crew."

Even if you do come to visit the set, don't bring any gifts; I don't need them!
Furthermore, my fan group doesn't need to raise funds... Anyone using my name to ask you to spend money is a scammer!

"I can make a lot of money just by taking on a random commercial event... If you want to spend money, you can wait for 'American Dreams in China' next month. It's my first film as a director, and it will be released during the Spring Festival... It tells the story of the first generation of private entrepreneurs..."

Meituan has launched online ticketing. You can buy a few tickets to stock up. You should be able to snag low-priced tickets if you buy them now. Meituan is spending a lot of money on ticket subsidies in order to grab market share.

Internet platforms are finally going to throw money at the problem... Their strategy is to first throw money around, and those that can't hold on will be forced out. If they survive, the BAT (Baidu, Alibaba, Tencent) giants will acquire them. This is called a "breeding poison" tactic...

This process should last for a few years, which is good for audiences as they can buy cheap movie tickets, and it's also good for cinemas. We're likely to see a period of rapid expansion of the silver screen… I won't go into too much detail. "American Dreams in China" officially premieres on Chinese New Year's Day. It's my directorial debut, so please give it your support… and please feel free to comment…"

"Also, the audience of 'Sound of My Dream' is specially invited by the production team and does not need to pay... Those who claim to sell tickets are all scammers."

The last sentence is very necessary…

After "My Love from the Star" aired, the ratings for "Sound of My Dream" rose by 1 point, and it's expected to continue rising...

Thanks to Shen Yan's popularity, the ratings of "Sound of My Dream" were pulled ahead of "I Am a Singer Season 2".

Mentioned "American Dreams in China"...

It's for promoting the movie!

After all, the promotion for "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has already begun, with Huayi Brothers and Stephen Chow holding several press conferences...

They put forward the slogans "Ten thousand years is too long, seize the day" and "When the king appears, he is invincible!"

So far, only the promotional song "The Story of Time" has been released for "American Dreams in China," and only one version of the trailer has been cut...

Very mysterious…

However, starting with this Weibo post, the promotional campaign for "American Dreams in China" officially began...

……

Shen Yan's dominance over Stephen Chow, at least for the time being, is undeniable!

His name is a guarantee of box office success.

Before the release of "Ne Zha 2", many viewers speculated that the first movie in film history to break 10 billion yuan would be a movie starring Stephen Chow himself!

Even though *The New King of Comedy* was terrible, a bunch of people said things like, "Wait a few years and see!" and "When we were young, we told audiences: what's the difference between someone without dreams and a salted fish? Now, after all the trials and tribulations, we're telling everyone that even in despair, there should still be a glimmer of hope."

Even the blatant product placement can be explained as performance art deliberately arranged by Stephen Chow…

What else is there to say?

The nostalgia factor surrounding Stephen Chow is incredibly powerful.

Moreover, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" itself is quite good. In the original timeline, after the release of "Conquering the Demons," a bunch of fantasy blockbusters were planned and released, but none of them were successful; in fact, they were quite disastrous. From this perspective, "Conquering the Demons" can definitely be considered a masterpiece that achieved both critical and commercial success.

To make a film like this, you definitely need to be fully prepared!

Shen Yan originally wanted to arrange for Deng Chao, Huang Xiaoming, and Tong Dawei to go on "Sound of My Dream" and sing "The Story of Time"...

Well, Zhejiang TV was very direct; they dedicated a special premiere episode to "American Dreams in China"...

Just for publicity...

They were only doing it because of Shen Yan—"My Love from the Star" was so popular, Shen Yan was now a ratings guarantee; whenever he appeared, the ratings would be at least 2%...

Xia Chen'an did the math: although it was a last-minute premiere, the advertising revenue was at least 200 million yuan!

The key point is that Shen Yan, for promotional purposes, definitely wouldn't accept any money. The creators of "American Dreams in China" didn't take any money, and the audience still loved watching it…

What a win!
Of course, Shen Yan is still filming in the "Goodbye Mr. Loser" drama series...

……

"Qiuya, I want to ask which university you applied to. I'd like to apply to the same university as you..."

"Yuan Hua, let's not contact each other anymore. I'm afraid Xia Luo will misunderstand!"

"No!! Qiuya~~"

Shen Yan shouted to the sky while pounding his chest...

"Ha ha…"

The director didn't yell "cut," and hearty laughter erupted from the crowd...

"Who is it?" Upon recognizing the person, Yan Fei immediately changed his expression: "Sister Na, you've arrived!"

Oh, Na Ying is here.

Na Ying quickly smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I just couldn't help it... I hope I didn't keep you inconvenienced?"

Shen Yan walked over and casually said, "It's okay, we can do it again..."

"Professor... come on, let's take a picture together! Why are you dressed like that?"

"High school students..." Shen Yan made a peace sign for the photo and then changed the subject: "So, sister, how much time can you give our crew?"

"Didn't you say it would only take about an hour...?"

"Two scenes... if we film them seriously, it might take two hours..."

Na Ying waved her hand: "That's fine, as long as we can finish filming tonight, I'll just play myself?"

"Hmm..." Yan Fei nodded, and then asked, "Have you read the script, sister?"

"I didn't look at it very closely..."

"In the first scene, you approach Xia Luo, wanting to invite him to write a song for you for the Spring Festival Gala. Xia Luo then presents 'Meet in 98,' and you both perform on the Spring Festival Gala together..."

"Meet in 98..." Na Ying didn't quite understand: "What about Wang Fei?"

"This is a rebirth-themed movie; Charlotte is a reborn character..."

"Rebirth?"

"It's like living life all over again..."

Tsk tsk, it seems Na Ying really didn't read the script!
