Chapter 128 Miracle, We Don’t Deserve It (Ask for Monthly Ticket)

Lin Xing did not miss a chance to promote "The Murderer in the Portrait".

Compared with other hosts of "Tonight's Drama", Yao Xue and Fang Xue were relatively polite to Lin Xing during the recording.

Not to mention that Minnie brought Yao Xue to have dinner with Lin Xing tonight.

This proves that Yao Xue is Minnie's person.

So Lin Xing was not polite.

The two of them stopped calling each other "teacher".

"Brother Xing, I'll add you on WeChat."

Yao Xue said with a smile: "When the show starts, send me the promotional copy and I will definitely help you promote it."

"Okay, then thank you Xiaoxue."

Lin Xing said with a smile.

"Axing, this episode will be broadcast on March 30th, and your show will also be broadcast on March 30th..."

Minnie said to Lin Xing: "I also hope that this episode can help you promote more."

"No problem, as long as Brother Xing's scenes are not edited out, then his highlights will definitely cause everyone to discuss."

Yao Xue said very confidently when she thought of Lin Xing's desperate look today.

"What are you thinking about?"

Minnie was speechless: "The focus of this episode is "The Right Way to Be Independent", starring Zhao Yining and Xu Tong, and the editing must be focused on them..."

Yao Xue frowned: "No way, Brother Xing really has to cut out all the famous scenes?"

"Yao Xue, where's your brain?"

Minnie was a little angry: "I thought you were a newcomer when you asked this question."

Yao Xue hurriedly said: "Sister Mi, my brain is not good to begin with, you know it?"

"You..."

Minnie was defeated instantly, she shook her head and said: "I think you should stay in "Tonight's Drama" honestly in the future, don't participate in interview variety shows and emotional variety shows, so as not to be scolded."

Yao Xue nodded gently: "Okay, I'll listen to Sister Mi."

Lin Xing listened to Minnie and Yao Xue's chat and suddenly realized that although Yao Xue was cute, she was mainly obedient.

Many times, it is not terrible that some people are stupid. The most terrible thing is that they are stupid but do not think they are stupid, and always put other people's opinions aside, jumping into the deep pit again and again.

This Minnie is willing to take Yao Xue with her probably because Yao Xue is cute but she really listens to advice.

Do whatever you ask her to do.

According to Yao Xue's words, Sister Mi has eaten more salt than I have eaten rice, she will definitely not harm me, so I will do whatever she says.

So Minnie brought Yao Xue out by herself.

"Based on my understanding of the program, I'm afraid the highlights will be edited into the trailer or behind-the-scenes, but there will definitely be some famous scenes in the main film, but definitely not too many."

Minnie said to Lin Xing: "You'd better be mentally prepared."

"It's already very good."

Lin Xing laughed: "We originally accompanied the young master to study, which is a bonus. We are already quite satisfied to have such a situation."

Minnie turned to Yao Xue and said: "See? Learn more from Ah Xing's state of mind. A good attitude is the most important thing in the entertainment industry."

Yao Xue said: "I'll try!"

For the next half an hour, Lin Xing felt that Minnie and Yao Xue were like crosstalk, and he was the burden of both of them.

One said, "Look at Lin Xing," and the other said, "Oh?"

One said, "Look at Lin Xing," and the other said, "That's true."

Good guy.

This is really like the funny and the supporting roles.

"Axing, let's meet again later."

After the show, Minnie smiled and said, "Maybe I'll go to Hong Kong to visit you someday."

Lin Xing said, "It's my honor. Let's meet later."

After that, Lin Xing said a few more words to Yao Xue before leaving.

"Miss Mi, do you really think that Lin Xing's "The Portrait of the Murderer" will perform well?"

Yao Xue asked Minnie on the way back.

Minnie shook her head, "I don't know."

Yao Xue was puzzled, "Don't you know why you're still helping Lin Xing so much?"

"Use your brain."

Minnie said again, "If I wanted to help "The Portrait of the Murderer", would I only invite Lin Xing to dinner today? I said at the beginning that I'm optimistic about Lin Xing. Do you really think I was just kidding when I said he would have a place in the entertainment industry within ten years?"

Yao Xue said, "Ah," "I thought you were fighting with Shang Wei?"

"What kind of fight?"

Minnie shook her head slightly and said, "Lin Xing's "The Portrait of the Murderer" "The Portrait of the Murderer" I have the same opinion as others. It would be a success if such a small-cast web drama could become a hit, not to mention that it is not easy for a criminal investigation theme? ? "

Yao Xue was stunned: "Then you still?"

"Still helping Lin Xing? Just say that in all these years, who is the guest of "Tonight's Drama" like Lin Xing?"

Minnie smiled and said: "Like Lin Xing said, he just thinks this is a job, but why do we all think he works so hard? ? ? "

Yao Xue said almost without thinking: "It's all thanks to the contrast of peers."

Yes.

It's all thanks to the contrast of peers.

Zhou Wei called Ma Wen to tell him about the recording situation, and he said: "Mr. Ma, you don't see how hard Ah Xing works, and I have been in the entertainment industry for so long, and I have never seen an actor who actually prepares for the variety show in advance."

Ma Wen was also a little surprised: "Ah Xing actually discussed it with you in advance? ? "

"More than just a discussion, Ah Xing explained everything about the game rules, game links, situations that are likely to occur during recording, etc., and even where the three of us have the opportunity to record..."

Zhou Wei sighed as he spoke: "My feeling now is that it would be really unforgivable if Ah Xing didn't become popular. He can actually do things so meticulously and so abnormally."

"The most important thing is that Ah Xing never takes credit. He even thinks he is just working."

Zhou Wei was a little amused at the end: "If we follow Ah Xing's standards, 99% of the people in this entertainment industry are not up to standard at work."

Ma Wen said: "Yes, and Ah Xing didn't need to work so hard. Our crew is really not worthy of Ah Xing."

"I also said this to Ah Xing. Guess what Ah Xing said?"

Zhou Wei suddenly laughed.

Ma Wen was stunned: "What do you mean?"

"Axing said he was very grateful to meet the right crew at the right time..."

Zhou Wei said: "I can feel that what Axing said is from the heart."

To put it bluntly, sometimes the crew and the actors are like blind dates.

People will only be introduced if they are equally capable.

So in Lin Xing's opinion, what crew is not worthy of him?

That's really a bit too high of an opinion.

At that time, if Lin Xing had not been recognized by the sales of "Fashionable Men's Style", the "Picture Hunting Murderer" people would not have handed the script to Lin Xing.

You can't say that your popularity has increased a little bit now, and then you think the play you took at the beginning is not suitable.

Isn't this a scumbag?

What's more, Lin Xing always thinks that the script of "Picture Hunting Murderer" is good, especially after he watched the rough cut of the film, he thinks that there is no problem with this drama.

Whether it's those who mocked Lin Xing before, or even think that Lin Xing took the male lead role for his so-called status, these views Lin Xing really doesn't care.

It's meaningless.

In the entertainment industry, talking nonsense is the most meaningless thing.

Just like some directors don't admit that they made a bad movie, and even post a special Weibo to express how much effort they put into making this movie, and then the audience misunderstood it, and then a bunch of celebrities forwarded it to support it.

Is it meaningful? ?

Except for making the audience more disgusted, there is no meaning.

At present, "The Portrait of the Murderer" is getting closer and closer to the start of the broadcast. Even up to now, everyone thinks that this is a relatively old-fashioned criminal investigation drama, nothing more than adding love.

But when the trailer of the two male protagonists of "The Portrait of the Murderer" came out, everyone felt even more boring.

Selling homosexuality, right? ?

CP hype, right? ?

Many current dramas are like this, basically the two male protagonists are used to create CP, and this kind of practice is not only in the play, but also outside the play.

Just like the popular urban drama "I Love Him" ​​three years ago, it is basically the most successful drama in CP.

The setting of two male protagonists, and the acting skills of these two are pretty good. In the drama, the two of them have a little bit of that, but it is extreme pulling. As for outside the drama, when they interacted during the interview, it seemed that their faces were full of love.

As a result, last year, one of the male actors was hammered for sleeping with fans, and then the other CP quickly cut off, and then everyone knew that the interviews were all following the script.

But it’s useless.

So what can I say? ?

Even if it’s fake, even if it’s industrial saccharin, everyone is willing to eat it, after all, it’s better than no sugar, right? ?

Anyway, everything can be fake now, as long as everyone is happy.

Because of this, many marketing accounts’ first reaction to the so-called two male protagonists released by "The Portrait of the Murderer" is to sell homosexuality.

Some people also mocked: "What time is it, and you are still selling homosexuality?"

Before, when "The Portrait of the Murderer" was finished, many people just complained about Lin Xing unilaterally, thinking that it was not suitable for him as an idol to play a criminal investigation theme.

In addition, Zhou Wei is a small star with 800,000 fans, and there is no topic to talk about normally, so no one will complain about him, so why not complain about Lin Xing?

Lin Xing accepted all of these.

After "The Murderer in the Portrait" released the double male lead version of the crime-solving trailer, Lin Xing also reposted the Weibo.

It's a good thing that someone scolds.

If a drama is not even scolded, then it is not far from the street, it is definitely a street failure.

The current entertainment industry is based on data, and under big data, basically good wine is afraid of deep alleys.

For this reason, it is absolutely not acceptable to have no attention in the early stage.

But from the A+ rating of "The Murderer in the Portrait", we can know that this TV series is not optimistic.

Except for Lin Xing, who has a lot of traffic, the other actors in the cast are not well-known.

This is the first time for the screenwriter to write a criminal investigation drama. Although director Liu Zhou has filmed criminal investigation dramas before, he has also failed several times.

From the initial ridicule when "The Murderer in the Portrait" was finished, to the lack of attention during the promotion, to the current slight attention it has attracted, although it is still criticized.

But optimistically, this is also a kind of attention.

The next day, Lin Xing returned to the imperial capital and had a meal with Ma Wen, Liu Zhou, Wei Fei, and Wang Yi.

"Axing, thank you for your hard work."

Ma Wen smiled at Lin Xing and said, "I have already heard from Zhou Wei that it was really difficult for you during the recording period."

Wei Fei also said: "Axing, it is already a victory if this drama can be broadcast. Why are you working so hard? What if something happens??"

"Brother Ma, Sister Fei, it's not that exaggerated."

Lin Xing was a little funny: "The games in "Tonight's Drama" are relatively safe. I just try to master some game rules as much as possible. When it comes to fighting hard, I think Ning Rong really fights. It's really to promote our "Tonight's Drama" "Portrait of a Murderer" No matter what kind of image it is, there is also Brother Zhou..."

"Axing, you are really..."

Liu Zhou looked at Lin Xing and really didn't know what to say.

It really covers everything.

What's more important is that he didn't regard himself as the number one figure at all. From the beginning to the end, from the launch, filming, finalization, and finalization of "Portrait of a Murderer", Lin Xing's popularity has been increasing.

But Lin Xing's attitude has not changed.

Even if there is no need for Lin Xing to work so hard on publicity, after all, the main creators of "Portrait of a Murderer" such as Ma Wen, Liu Zhou, and Wang Yi are already very grateful to Lin Xing.

They thought that Lin Xing's participation in "Drama Tonight" had already given them enough face.

But I never imagined that Lin Xing would work so hard to promote "Portrait of a Murderer".

"Axing, when are you leaving??"

Wei Fei asked Lin Xing, "Are you ready to join the group?"

"Well, I will go to Hong Kong City tomorrow. The web drama "Evil Child" will start filming tomorrow."

Lin Xing nodded slightly and said, "I should be in Hong Kong City from now on."

At this point, Lin Xing paused and said, "But if you need any cooperation from me in "Portrait of a Murderer," just say so. I will definitely do whatever I can do."

"It's really gone for the time being."

Marvin smiled bitterly and said: "Our show has neither a launch press conference nor a building sweep event. As for the live broadcast, it is not suitable now. The current resources have basically been used up. Next, we will have to give one to Penguin Video when it starts broadcasting." Second level recommendation.”

“Second level recommendation??”

Lin Xing was stunned: "Didn't I say before that it would be possible to recommend open screens??"

"No chance. There are two S-level dramas coming in April. Penguin Video needs to rely on these two dramas to compete with other video websites."

Marvin shook his head slightly: "We are cannon fodder, and cannon fodder is not worthy of additional resources."

Lin Xing said: "Well, that's quite reasonable."

"Let me tell you, Lao Ma, Lao Wang, you just can't think about it."

Wei Fei still said the same thing: "I was saying when we were finalizing that as long as our drama is launched, it will be a victory. Then we worked hard for the Spring Festival and finally got the drama scheduled for March 30. Isn't this already a victory? ?"

"Feifei, that's what you said."

Marvin smiled bitterly and said: "But who doesn't want to go further??"

Wang Yi also said: "Not talking about the two of us, ask Director Liu if he has any additional ideas?"

"I do, too. I even hope that our drama can become S-rated."

Liu Zhou said with a smile.

"Old Liu, since you are just imagining it, why don't you just imagine that our show will become S+?"

Wei Fei said with a hint of ridicule: "Maybe it can become S++ like "Sweeping Out"??"

"This is my dream. What if the dream can come true??"

Liu Zhou said angrily: "The S++ you mentioned is already wishful thinking."

S+ is already considered a hit in the industry. As for a phenomenal hit like "Smash" that directly becomes S++, it really needs the right time, location, and people.

Let’s talk about a phenomenal drama like “The Big Brother”. How many dramas can be released in a year? ?

Take a look at this drama. Whether it is the three leading actors Ren Yi, Song Wen, and Wang Fei, or the leading actors Shang Xia, Wu Jun, Cao Xiang, Lin Xing, or even Zhao Lili, Xu Rong, Cai Ying, etc., they have received a lot of bonuses. .

This is a phenomenal drama, and basically the supporting characters also get bonuses.

Except for Feng Qing, who was scolded bloody, all the other actors in "Anti-Gangster" have gained a certain reputation.

Liu Zhou felt that he was confident that "Portrait of a Murderer" could achieve such a drama, but he was too unsure.

As a senior director, he has confidence in "Portrait of a Murderer" and he believes that it will definitely not be a bad movie.

It may be necessary to rush into the street. Whether it can be successful or not is really hard to say.

A bad drama may not necessarily be popular, just like many bloody dramas that have been criticized, but the ratings will be high and the demand will be high.

In the same way, good dramas do not necessarily fail to hit the market. Some good dramas may have poor ratings and low on-demand demand when they are first aired. It may take a year or two or more before they are picked up by everyone and even become the king of dramas.

So as the old saying goes, the entertainment industry is a place where miracles happen, and everything is possible.

""Tonight's Drama" just announced that this episode will be aired on March 30."

Marvin said to Lin Xing: "What I want is that we will announce as much as possible next, and at the same time release the final trailer on the 31st, what do you think??"

"Okay, but it's hard to tell what kind of editing we will make when "Tonight's Drama" starts airing..."

Lin Xing thought for a while and said: "So I think it's best for us to release a few short films every week..."

"That's for sure."

Ma Wen nodded gently: "We are all ready."

After all, although "The Murderer in the Portrait" does not have many publicity resources, they still have some. After all, an A+ rating is much better than some B-level ratings.

This meal is a small gathering for everyone, and it is also a thank-you banquet for Lin Xing by the producers, screenwriters, directors, and supervisors of "The Murderer in the Portrait".

"Axing, I wish you all the best in the next filming in Hong Kong City. I will welcome you back to the capital when you return."

Wei Fei said with a glass of wine.

In her opinion, "The Murderer in the Portrait" has done everything it should do, and Lin Xing has done his best.

The next "The Murderer in the Portrait" will probably be broadcast quietly.

Lin Xing can only help with the live broadcast.

Can Lin Xing still sweep the building in Zhalang like "Sweeping Black Waves"?

Don't get me wrong.

Wei Fei did not mean to say that Lin Xing was unworthy. She felt that "The Murderer in the Portrait" definitely had no chance. '

The entertainment industry is indeed a place where miracles happen, but the reason why it is called a miracle is that it often does not happen.

Apart from other things, do you think that "The Murderer in the Portrait" looks like a miracle is about to happen?
