This celebrity is absolutely wicked.

Chapter 181 Congratulations, Brother Shen, on getting first place!

Fans have seen the edited video clips from "Song of the Clear Sky" many times online.

That action is different from the visceral, punch-to-kung fu movie feel; it's all about looking cool.

Actors can eventually produce something after a period of training.

But if you want to deliver a punch that hits hard, that's a different story; you have to have really trained.

Martial arts stars like Pang Yuntian have been practicing for decades.

Now, seeing Lu Ran fighting Pang Yuntian in the video, everyone's feelings are completely different.

It was as if Lu Ran had suddenly become an equal to Pang Yuntian.

They are on equal footing in terms of combat strength.

Jiang Haoxing also saw the video.

After reading it, his heart skipped a beat.

"Thank goodness, I didn't have any conflicts with Lu Ran while I was on set."

Based on Lu Ran's movements and physique, he could take on at least three of him.

Within the entertainment circle, some celebrities who disliked Lu Ran also began to suppress their inner thoughts.

Although celebrities have to pay attention to their image in this day and age, and even though Lu Ran is highly skilled in martial arts, he wouldn't dare to hit anyone, his fighting prowess is still his fighting prowess, and that's what makes him intimidating.

Everyone thought that if they ever met Lu Ran in the future, they should still be polite to him.

The focus of attention has once again shifted to the movie "Black Tide".

Pang Yuntian's movie has not been promoted, and most people don't know that Pang Yuntian is actually making a movie recently, and that he even brought in Lu Ran.

At first, Jiang Haoxing thought it was a theatrical release, but after his agent checked, he was relieved to find out it wasn't.

Online movies have a very low status.

"Lu Ran is getting worse and worse, yet he's still making online movies," Jiang Haoxing thought disdainfully.

He has also been approached by online movie companies to act in films, but his offers have been rejected.

There's no point in making this; it would be better to make a web series.

From an actor's perspective, making money through web series is more lucrative and less risky than making theatrical films.

Just as Jiang Haoxing was feeling smug, his agent put down his phone.

The agent looked worried: "Tencent Video asked you to cooperate with the promotion. The publicity team's direction is to highlight the contrast between Lu Ran's action scenes and the main character, using this method to attract viewers. You also need to mention Lu Ran's name in some promotional activities and show that you have a good relationship with Lu Ran."

Jiang Haoxing's expression changed drastically in an instant.

It's clear that Tencent Video has given up on him.

That's the most dangerous thing!
If he doesn't get cast in the next drama, he's doomed.

Jiang Haoxing said angrily, "I'm not even familiar with Lu Ran!"

Agent: "If you're not familiar with him, just pretend you are. Anyway, given Lu Ran's personality, he won't care about these things. If Lu Ran doesn't care, no one will expose him. Don't act impulsively at this time. Cooperating with the publicity is the most important thing."

At this moment, the agent took out a box of kidney tonic tablets from his bag and tossed it to Jiang Haoxing.

"Isn't there a rumor on K-site that you took Shenbao pills and became Lu Ran? The company has designed a whitewashing video for you. Use this drug to whitewash your image, make a self-deprecating video, and you have to seize this wave of popularity."

Jiang Haoxing held the box of Shenbao tablets, his face twitching uncontrollably.

"I'm actually going to film a video with Shenbao tablets! Isn't that helping Lu Ran? Besides, I'm not even a spokesperson for Shenbao tablets!"

He looked up as if to refuse, but gave in after meeting his agent's eyes.

He has no choice now.

Since we're in this business because of internet traffic, we have to make sure we keep our money there.

After this video is posted, his core fans will praise him for his magnanimity, and some of his haters will definitely be converted.

Agent: "What's the difference between you now and the spokesperson for Shenbao tablets?"

Jiang Haoxing gritted his teeth: "Fine, I'll film it!"

Online, many netizens are also paying attention to the movie "Black Tide".

Soon, marketing accounts started posting movie-related news online.

"It's actually an action movie written, directed, and starring Pang Yuntian. It's an online film, I wonder how it is."

"Pang Yuntian's action scenes in movies are still worth looking forward to, especially since Liu Qianyuan is also in one." "There are too few good action movies on the market right now, I mean the serious kind."

"Forget action movies, kung fu movies and martial arts movies have all disappeared."

"Actually, I quite like kung fu movies."

"No one makes these kinds of films anymore, and no one can act in them."

"What a pity."

The online discussion veered off-topic.

People started discussing why there are no kung fu movies or martial arts movies nowadays.

The next morning, Lu Ran and Li Quan pulled their suitcases out of their hotel room.

Pang Yuntian and Liu Qianyuan were waiting at the door.

The four of them took the elevator downstairs, and when they arrived at the hotel entrance, a minivan was already waiting.

Li Quan carried the luggage, while Lu Ran and Pang Yuntian chatted.

Pang Yuntian smiled and said, "Lu Ran, I hope we can cooperate again in the future."

Liu Qianyuan said self-deprecatingly, "This opportunity is probably a bit slim."

Two good actors can't just go and make a purely dramatic film together.

We'll definitely have to fight.

But now there's no place for kung fu movies in the market.

Pang Yuntian shook his head: "It's a pity that Lu Ran's skills have no use."

The market is changing. Currently, films on the market don't require skill; nobody wants to write stories in that area, and nobody wants to invest in them.

At most, they'll fight in fantasy dramas.

But that kind of fighting isn't satisfying.

Liu Qianyuan comforted him, "Don't think about these things. Lu Ran is different from us. We only know how to fight, but Lu Ran can also write songs and sing. His acting range is also much wider than ours."

Lu Ran could tell that Pang Yuntian and Liu Qianyuan had a deep passion for kung fu.

After all, these two became famous and made money through kung fu.

It can be said that his whole life has been related to kung fu.

There are good kung fu movies on Earth, and if he gets the chance to make one in the future, he'll definitely make one.

How can you say there's no chance?

Lu Ran said solemnly, "Kung Fu is a calling card of China in the world. As long as people remember this calling card, there will always be a place for us to use our skills."

Liu Qianyuan and Pang Yuntian both burst into laughter.

After saying goodbye to the two, Lu Ran got into the car and headed to the airport.

He needs to fly to Beijing first to record the second episode of "China in Classical Texts" before returning to Qincheng Prison.

Online, a bunch of netizens are quietly waiting for the music charts to refresh.

The new song chart is updated every hour.

Cheng Yarui's "The Sea in My Heart" remains in first place, while "A Steady Happiness" is in second place.

However, according to netizens' estimates, the data for "Steady Happiness" definitely surpassed that of Cheng Yarui's new song.

On the trending charts, "A Steady Happiness" is already number one.

When the time reached nine o'clock, the data on the new song chart was updated again.

The rankings changed instantly.

"A Steady Happiness" became number one, while "The Sea in My Heart" dropped to second place.

Some netizens with a penchant for silly humor have been waiting for this moment.

After taking the screenshot, everyone went to Li Haorui's Weibo account to post the screenshot.

"Congratulations to Brother Shen for taking first place!"
