This top celebrity got drunk and acted crazy, and everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry bur

"No way, how did he get an invitation to the Spring Festival Gala!"

In an apartment in Shanghai, seeing the news online that Lü Ming had been invited to participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala, Sister Mi said to Dilraba next to her with some 'displeasure'.

No wonder Sister Honey was a little annoyed.

It's worth noting that Lü Ming only became famous in about half a year before appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage, and was even placed on such an important stage.

And what about Honey?

Having debuted for over a decade, she is considered a top-tier female artist in the entertainment industry. Even at the height of her popularity, she never received an invitation from the Spring Festival Gala program.

It would be a lie to say that Sister Mi didn't want to participate in the Spring Festival Gala.

In the entire entertainment industry, apart from a few celebrities, there is no one who doesn't want to participate in the Spring Festival Gala.

This is not only because once you appear on the Spring Festival Gala stage, your popularity and fame will increase significantly.

Most importantly, the Spring Festival Gala stage is unique to the Chinese people. No one can resist the opportunity to appear in front of the whole nation; otherwise, countless people wouldn't compete for those few opportunities every year.

These celebrities in the entertainment industry actually had some expectations for this year's Spring Festival Gala, after all, the chief director of this year's gala is Feng Xiaogang, a big name in their industry.

Moreover, from the moment Feng Xiaogang was selected as the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, almost everyone knew that he would bring some changes to the Gala.

As they predicted, after Feng Xiaogang became the chief director of this year's Spring Festival Gala, he successively selected many artists from the entertainment industry to participate in the preliminary selection.

Some time ago, they heard that, thanks to the public relations efforts of the companies behind Wu Qian and Li Changfeng, Wu Qian and Li Changfeng were likely to appear on the Spring Festival Gala stage this year, but they had never heard of Lü Ming's name before.

While the Spring Festival Gala was holding its selection and rehearsals, Lü Ming was still filming "Candle in the Tomb: The Lost City," so no one thought he would participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala.

Everyone initially thought that Feng Xiaogang might not have invited Lü Ming because he felt that Lü Ming had become famous too quickly and lacked sufficient experience.

But now, suddenly it has been announced that Lü Ming will participate in this year's Spring Festival Gala, while Wu Qian and Li Changfeng, who should have been on the list, have disappeared. Everyone naturally understands what this means.

It's obvious that Lü Ming stole the spotlight from Wu Qian and Li Changfeng on the Spring Festival Gala.

Didn't he tell you?

After muttering to herself for a while, Sister Mi couldn't help but ask Reba, who was smiling to the side.

"I only found out recently myself!"

After hearing Sister Mi's question, Dilraba replied with a smile.

Before the Spring Festival Gala program team announced the list, Lü Ming had already told Dilraba and the others about his appearance on the Spring Festival Gala stage a couple of days ago, so Dilraba wasn't too surprised by today's news.

Dilraba wasn't too surprised that Lü Ming was invited to the Spring Festival Gala. Although Lü Ming hasn't been famous for long, she definitely deserves to be invited to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

If we're talking about popularity alone, even established top stars might not be able to match Lü Ming's current popularity and buzz. Lü Ming's popularity and buzz in the Chinese entertainment industry is absolutely skyrocketing, and no one can compare to him.

You can tell just by looking at Lü Ming's Weibo followers. As a Chinese entertainment star who has never inflated his Weibo follower count, Lü Ming now has nearly 200 million followers on Weibo.

The artist behind Lü Ming with the most fans has just over 100 million.

It's common knowledge that in the entertainment industry, it's perfectly normal to gain Weibo followers. For example, Dilraba has tens of millions of Weibo followers, but at least half of them were gained by her company, Jiaxing Media.

This is after Dilraba became a sensation through "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer," resulting in a significant increase in fan attention; otherwise, this percentage might have been even higher.

Lü Ming was different. Perhaps when Lü Ming first debuted, he gained a lot of fans and attention.

However, as Lü Ming's fame gradually declined in recent years, especially when his reputation was on the verge of collapse at the beginning of the year, the inflated fan base was diluted, and at that time Lü Ming only had a few million fans.

Now, after more than half a year of development, Lü Ming's number of fans is close to 200 million.

There is absolutely no water in this.

Given Lü Ming's current popularity and buzz, it's perfectly normal for him to be invited to the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Besides, Lü Ming is different from ordinary popular celebrities in the entertainment industry. Lü Ming doesn't just rely on his handsome and flawless face; he is very capable.

If Lü Ming isn't qualified to be on the Spring Festival Gala, then no one in the entertainment industry is qualified to be on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

Originally, Dilraba wasn't very interested in the Spring Festival Gala, but after learning that Lü Ming would be participating, she decided to watch him on TV this year.

"This guy is getting more and more outrageous!"

After hearing Dilraba's answer, Sister Mi nodded and said with a touch of emotion.

Honey Sister really understands the influence of the Spring Festival Gala stage.

The overnight fame of Xiao Shenyang demonstrates the boost that the Spring Festival Gala stage provides to celebrities. Even for someone like Lü Ming, whose popularity is currently at its peak, appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage would still elevate his fame to a new level.

Given Lü Ming's current popularity and buzz, I have no idea what it would be like if his popularity were to reach another level. There has never been such an "abnormal" artist in the entertainment industry in all these years.

"What's the deal with Lü Ming's movie? Is it really in pre-production?"

Not long after she finished her reflections, Sister Mi seemed to have thought of something and asked Dilraba, who was standing next to her, with some curiosity.

During this time, Sister Mi and her colleagues also heard some news in the industry: Lu Ming's studio is contacting some artists in the entertainment industry, as if they are really going to make a movie.

Originally, Sister Mi and the others thought that what Lü Ming said in the last interview about making a movie was just something he said in a fit of anger, especially after they found out that Lü Ming had not communicated with any director or crew.

No one really thought that Lü Ming would actually make a movie to compete with Stephen Chow's big-budget sequel to Journey to the West.

But judging from the way Lü Ming and his group are making now, it seems like they're really about to do something.

"I know!"

Upon hearing this, Dilraba smiled and then said to her friend, "He plans to direct and star in this movie, and I've received an invitation from him!"

"Self-filmed and self-directed?"

Upon hearing this, Sister Mi couldn't help but exclaim, her face full of surprise. She never expected that Lü Ming not only actually planned to make a movie, but also that he would direct and star in it himself.

If Lü Ming were only going to make one movie, then I might not be so surprised. After all, given Lü Ming's current popularity and acting skills, entering the film industry was inevitable; there's no actor in the entire entertainment industry who doesn't want to be a movie actor.

But when it comes to the claim that Lü Ming is going to film and direct his own movie, I can't help but have some doubts.

If he were to become an actor, Lü Ming would definitely be capable enough.

But to become a director?

That's not something an ordinary person can do. You know, there aren't many people in the entertainment industry who cross over to become directors, let alone succeed. The only one who can be mentioned is probably that Little Swallow, who can be considered a successful crossover.

However, despite the online praise for Xiao Yanzi's successful crossover into becoming a well-known director, almost everyone in the industry knows that Xiao Yanzi's directorial role is merely a title. Most of the directing work is done by the assistant director; she's just a figurehead.

Does this mean that Lü Ming is also going to learn from that Little Swallow, just by using her name?
impossible!
Honey Sister had a fairly good understanding of Lü Ming's personality and knew that he wouldn't do such a thing.

Since Lü Ming said he wanted to film and direct the movie himself, he must be planning to be the director, or at least take charge of the vast majority of the work.

"He can make movies?"

Honey asked Dilraba with some skepticism.

She had known Lü Ming for quite some time, and based on her previous investigation, she had no idea when Lü Ming had ever studied directing, let alone studied it or even had any contact with it.

It's worth noting that Lü Ming only entered the entertainment industry this year; before that, he was always involved in the world of internet celebrities and variety shows.

"I don't know either!"

Reba shook her head, a hint of doubt on her face, but she still said confidently, "But I believe in him. I believe that since he said so, he can definitely do it!"

Honey nodded. Although she had some doubts about Lü Ming's decision, considering the miracles he had created before, she couldn't help but have some doubts.

Could it be that Lü Ming really knows how?

What is he planning to film? A youth film?

Honey Sister remembered what Dilraba had just said about accepting Lü Ming's invitation to star in the movie, and asked Dilraba about it.

Since the movie "So Young" by actress Xiao Yanzi achieved a box office miracle of 700 to 800 million yuan last year, it instantly ignited the entire youth film market. In just one year, more than ten youth films have emerged, and many of them have achieved good box office results.

As the simplest genre of film, youth films are the easiest to produce, whether you're investing in a best friend project or simply making a film, making them the best starting point for many novice directors.

Compared to special effects, the most important thing in youth films is the story.

For Lü Ming, the story was the simplest thing.

Given that Lü Ming was able to write the screenplays for "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer" and "Candle in the Tomb," writing a screenplay for a youth film would naturally not be too much of a challenge.

In my opinion, Lü Ming will most likely choose the hottest genre right now to shoot a youth film.

"I don't know, but it probably isn't!"

Dilraba shook her head. Although she didn't know much about the movie that Lü Ming was going to shoot, judging from the role that Lü Ming introduced to her, it was unlikely to be a youth film.

"Ask him if he has any roles that would suit me; I might even work for free!"

After hearing what Dilraba said, Honey Sister became even more curious about Lü Ming's new film and couldn't help but ask Dilraba.

It would be a lie to say that Sister Honey doesn't want to make movies and become a film actress.

After years of struggling in the entertainment industry, Sister Mi has always wanted to become a well-known film actress.

After struggling in the film industry and playing some insignificant roles, Honey Sister eventually had no choice but to leave and return to her comfort zone.

If given the chance, Honey would certainly like to return to the film industry and realize her dream of becoming a movie actress.

Now, Lü Ming's movie is an excellent opportunity. Just based on Lü Ming himself, the movie's final box office won't be too bad, and it will definitely be much higher than the movies that Sister Honey has acted in before.

As for reputation and such, Sister Honey doesn't care at all.

To put it bluntly, even if the reputation is bad, can it be worse than the reputation of the movies that Honey Sister directed before, such as "Mysterious Island" and the "Tiny Times" series?
You should know that those movies were ranked near the bottom on Douban, and even Sister Mi was embarrassed to mention it to others.

Besides, if she were to play some of those roles, it would be a way of helping and supporting Lü Ming.

"You can contact him yourself about this. You know him, right?"

After hearing what Sister Honey said, Dilraba smiled and said.

If Sister Honey didn't know Lü Ming, then Dilraba's help would be understandable.

But Sister Mi has known Lü Ming for a long time, and their relationship is quite good. If she wanted some roles, she could just ask.

"Okay, I'll ask about it when I have time!"

As if remembering something, Honey's eyes flashed with a hint of evasion, and she stopped the conversation.

Meanwhile, in an apartment in the capital city.

Upon hearing his agent's words, Wu Qian, who had just finished his acting training for the day, flew into a rage and smashed the water glass on the table onto the ground.

During this period, Wu Qian has been riding high, not only becoming the male lead in Stephen Chow's big-budget sequel to Journey to the West, but also potentially appearing on the Spring Festival Gala stage.

However, Wu Qian did not expect that his agent would tell him that his chance to appear on the Spring Festival Gala stage was gone.

His duet with Li Changfeng was cut by the Spring Festival Gala production team and replaced with a duet by Lü Ming.

Thinking of this, Wu Qian couldn't help but feel angry.

It's important to know that in order to secure this opportunity to perform on the Spring Festival Gala stage, not only did Wu Qian's company put in a lot of effort, but Wu Qian himself also made significant sacrifices.

However, what Wu Qian considered a sure thing to get on the Spring Festival Gala stage was once again ruined by that guy Lü Ming. (End of this chapter)
