Artists under the Rebirth of the Coal Boss

Chapter 261 Genius or Idiot?

Lin Xingzhuo delivered a phenomenal performance, overshadowing Yang Qianhua, and reaffirmed her status as the "absolute lead actress" in the production team!
The following day, Zhang Youqian and Xiao Ma borrowed staff and company vehicles from Jiahe Cinemas.

I bought Kau Kee clear broth beef brisket, Sai Kung Chuen Kee cheese baked lobster, Yung Kee Restaurant roast goose, and a super deluxe lunchbox with salted lemon soda.

They packed over sixty portions, and everyone in the crew received one, even the extras and background actors.

This is a bombshell move from a coal-themed celebrity—a massive spending spree!
This effectively silenced all dissent.

Even Yang Qianhua, whose acting skills were completely outshone by Lin Xingzhuo, temporarily forgave Lin Xingzhuo after eating two servings of cheese-baked lobster in one go...

…………

However, during the subsequent filming process, Lin Xingzhuo's acting skills became inconsistent, sometimes supernatural and sometimes unpredictable!

The main creative team members, including Peng Haoxiang, Liang Qiyuan, and Yang Qianhua, were all confused.

Is Lin Xingzhuo a super genius or an ultimate idiot?!

Peng Haoxiang, who couldn't figure it out, could only conclude that Lin Xingzhuo was just starting out with experiential learning and his state of mind was not yet stable.

Fortunately, Ah Jiao demonstrated the professional qualities of a professional actress!

She consistently catered to Lin Xingzhuo's preferences, feeding her all sorts of snacks, acting like a super fangirl, and persistently guiding Lin Xingzhuo to develop a sense of conviction about the character!

…………

The rest of the crew were just watching the drama unfold, secretly marveling at Lin Xingzhuo's luck with women.

First he slept with Asa, and now Ajiao is actively pursuing him...

The key point is that Asa was also in the cast of "Love in a Puff," playing the colleague and best friend of the third female lead, Yu Chun Jiao!
That kind of direct, face-to-face attack is just too overpowered!
Will this cause Twins to turn against each other and the group to break up?

Lin Xingzhuo's charm is even more amazing than Guan Xi's!

Those who were curious were looking at Lin Xingzhuo's upper and lower body.

This kid must have a special talent!!

…………

Director Peng Haoxiang and producer Liang Qiyuan were both delighted to see this happen!

It's filming!
Especially romance films about urban men and women where the main focus is on emotional scenes!
The more genuine the emotions the actors bring to the film, the better the final result!
While actors can certainly portray romantic relationships, most actors simply cannot make it convincingly real.

Especially the young actors...

There's no other way but to make this a real show!
As for Assa...

Producer Leung Kai-yuen gave a special explanation, as everyone thought Asa would lose her temper.

Surprisingly, Asa had no objections.
They still have complete faith that Lin Xingzhuo can withstand the test?!
Liang Qiyuan swallowed back the prepared explanation.

He couldn't understand why Asa trusted Lin Xingzhuo's character so much.

During their conversation, Liang Qiyuan even sensed that Asa had a strange sense of inferiority when she mentioned Lin Xingzhuo.

…………

Recalling her conversation with Asa, Leung Kai-yuen inexplicably thought of the popular TVB show "Love Battle" this year.

In one episode, a divorced young woman felt inferior to a man getting married for the first time. Guests Tsai Lan and Tien Hsin tried their best to persuade her and facilitate the relationship.

When Asa mentioned Lin Xingzhuo, Liang Qiyuan felt that she was somewhat like a divorced young woman on a TV show...

…………

Peng Haoxiang greatly praised Ah Jiao's exceptional performance and execution, and was thinking of giving Ah Jiao a role in the upcoming film "Victoria One".

After being thoroughly impressed by Lin Xingzhuo's acting skills, Yang Qianhua gradually became more and more curious about this mysterious newcomer to the mainland, who excels in film, television, and music...

First, I listened to his songs "Sorrow" and "Way Back Home". He released three amazing songs in one year, which amazed me!
Then, I watched his performance in "Dwelling Narrowness" where he said, "I really want to be a section chief," and I was truly impressed!
Later, I saw Lin Xingzhuo on Weibo participating in the Zhejiang TV variety show "Delicious Food Wins the World" and found that Lin Xingzhuo is quite interesting!
Next, through his agent, he inquired about information from Hong Kong and Taiwan employees at Orange Sky Entertainment and the production teams of "Reign of Assassins" and "Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame".

More and more messages from Lin Xingzhuo were received...

According to the Hong Kong makeup and styling director of Orange Sky Entertainment, the hype surrounding Lin Xingzhuo and Li Nian seems to be aimed at helping Li Nian break free from the company's "caged bird" control and get back on his feet.
The information I heard that day about "Detective Dee and the Mystery of the Phantom Flame" was probably a CP hype campaign by Huayi Brothers and Huying Xinghui, the two companies behind Li Bingbing.

There are also rumors about the Twins duo and Asa, and with the verification of various sources, plus what Yang Qianhua saw in the recording studio, it is likely that Asa took the initiative to pursue Lin Xingzhuo.

At this moment, Yang Qianhua realized something chilling upon closer inspection...

Lin Xingzhuo is either an unparalleled acting genius or an absolute scumbag!
........................

Amidst the chaos on set, Lin Xingzhuo remains in good spirits...

However, during his recent breaks from filming "Love in a Puff," he didn't play video games. Instead, he regularly held meetings with his sister-in-law Shen Mojun and Ding Ye.

The reason for such frequent meetings is that the situation in Taibei is very bad.

They had just acquired two Vieshow Cinemas in Wanhua District when they were completely wrecked by Tou Beicuo, one of the four major gangsters in Mengjia!
Calling the police was useless; they just told us to go home and wait for further notice...

The methods of embezzling funds and collecting smear material take time; at the earliest, it will take until the next election.

The problem now is that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake.

Should we continue to fight? Or should we retreat and pull our fists back?

...The study in Room 302, Phase II villas of Hongshan Peninsula, South District of Xiangjiang Island.

Standing in front of the Alienware Area-51m17x laptop, looking at the two people in the video frame, Lin Xingzhuo's attitude was very firm, and he said:

"Now is the best time. The atmosphere across the Taiwan Strait is relaxed, making it the easiest time to infiltrate."

"Once the situation becomes tense later, there won't be such an opportunity to make arrangements, plant spies, or lay spies!"

Ding Ye lit a cigarette and said, "No way, I think the situation is very good right now, and travel is very convenient. We've suffered too much loss during this period, so we can slow things down for now..."

"At that point, it will be very difficult for you to gain a foothold in the Taibei cinema market!"

In the video, Shen Mojun, the eldest sister-in-law, said: "Xingzhuo, I recently heard from a friend at a dinner party that the Cross-Strait Service Trade Agreement has also begun negotiations and will be signed in the next few years."

"Following this trend, with deep economic integration, the next step will be at the political level..."

Lin Xingzhuo interjected, "Sister-in-law, the trend will be disrupted!"

Ding Ye said helplessly, "Xing Zhuo, we've expanded too fast, and our military and financial resources are scattered!"

"These gang leaders seem to have reached a consensus; they're going to unite against a common enemy!"

"Our men have been arrested, and they're going straight to prison!"

Lin Xingzhu thought for a moment and said, "Brother Ye, let's cooperate with the system!"

"Isn't Tiger Eye Vision Group's Jinyang Information Security Protection Center just cooperating with the system?"

Ding Ye, who was in the video, exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "Xing Zhuo, I met with Lao Zhao last month and we talked about cross-strait relations."

After hearing Ding Ye's words, Lin Xingzhuo finally remembered.

…………

The system is a highly capable, efficient, and committed top-tier organization.

The "Comprehensive National Security Concept" was made public on social media in 2014, and the first National Security Law was passed.

Since then, numerous significant public achievements have been made, both domestically and internationally, that can be searched on both internal and external networks.

………………

Another manifestation of this is the strengthening of publicity and the deepening of theoretical research.

These two points are clear signals of a certain institution strengthening itself within the modern state system!

The China Institutes of Contemporary International Relations (CICI) is one of the world's most important think tanks on international relations.

Ranking of think tanks in the field of international issues worldwide.

The China Institute of Contemporary International Relations (CICI) far surpasses the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Institute of International Studies directly under the Honglu Temple, which are perhaps more familiar to most people.

The ZG Institute of Contemporary International Relations is a directly affiliated public institution of the system.

…………

On another note, the censorship of film and television works in China follows a certain rule:
Content involving various departments is generally reviewed by that department.

For example, cases involving the police are reviewed by the Six Doors (a government agency), and cases involving the courts are reviewed by the judicial department.

All works involving military themes must pass the approval of the military, and the military is often the main participant.

Once upon a time, when it came to taking photos of the system, did you think they would give you their approval?

Don't even think about it!!

Phenomenal hits like "Lurking" and "Kite" fall under the category of major historical dramas and were subject to special review by experts organized by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

…………

This situation continued until 2024 with "Feud," a major breakthrough in the history of Chinese-language television dramas!

Lin Xingzhuo also participated in the review of this drama, which is how she obtained some information about the relevant industry.

…………

After several video conferences, at Lin Xingzhuo's insistence, his sister-in-law Shen Mojun decided to trust the mastermind behind the Tiger Group coal capital once again.

So, Ding Ye took a list of people who had been exposed and made the news in 2018 in his previous life, provided by Lin Xingzhuo, and returned to the mainland.

Old Zhao took the information and reported it to the authorities, then organized a team to verify it.

You wouldn't believe it until you looked it up!

Good guy! ! !
Holy crap! I treated you like a fellow countryman! And you treated me like a Japanese person?!
........................

Fulfilled the responsibilities of the company's policy advisor.

Lin Xingzhuo is about to devote all her energy to filming "Love in a Puff".

Suddenly, during a break from filming, Lin Xingzhuo, who was working out at the gym, discovered that something was wrong with her body...
