Chapter 557: As Always

"Alas, the Spring Festival hasn't even ended yet, how come it feels like it's over already?"

"I really don't understand why the Spring Festival has been nominated for World Heritage status, can't we have a few more days off?"

"It's already the fifth day of the first lunar month. Although I'm supposed to start work on the eighth day, I have to go back today."

...

"Alas, I really don't want to leave. The New Year hasn't even ended yet and it's over."

"Time is like a wild donkey, it keeps running. I've always thought I was only 18, but now I'm 38 in the blink of an eye."

"Who says it's not? The Spring Festival in previous years was really boring. This year's Spring Festival is actually a little better. At least the Spring Festival Gala is a little interesting."

"No, no, the Spring Festival Gala is boring. What's interesting is Guo Haishan and Lin Xing's skit "Red Sorghum Model Team."

...

This is the influence of a classic skit.

It can be said that this year's Spring Festival Gala has completely suppressed the New Year's Day and Spring Festival schedules.

To be honest, all the movies in this year's Spring Festival are blockbusters, and they are well publicized, but the box office of these blockbusters is actually OK. After all, it is the Spring Festival, and many people have to choose one to watch even if they know it is a bad movie.

However, the degree of discussion is far different.

Because everyone watches it as a recreational movie, the discussion is limited to what film critics or people in the industry say: "The movie is really good" and so on.

However, not many passers-by discuss it. After watching it, passers-by only have one comment: "It's better to watch the skit "Red Sorghum Model Team."

This really makes many movies feel very embarrassed.

Because everyone finds that the movie is in a half-dead state, this year's Spring Festival is already the strongest Spring Festival in 2028, but it is still like this.

Even after Lao Zhong finished watching 8 Spring Festival blockbusters in one breath, she really felt that what Lin Xing said was right.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Lao Zhong made a summary of the 8 Spring Festival blockbusters on Weibo.

"I feel more and more that what Lin Xing said is right. The current movies completely disrespect the audience. They always think that they can make good movies by taking shortcuts??

You can even take a look at the 8 movies this year. Except for the three animated films, which of the other movies is not star-studded?

Sometimes I don't understand why movies now invite so many actors to act together?

All famous actors, and then spend money on these, so I really want to ask if this can make a good movie??"

...

Lao Zhong really believes that what Lin Xing said is right, so she mercilessly bombarded the 8 movies of this year's Spring Festival, to be exact, bombarded 5 movies.

At the same time, Lao Zhong believes that a batch of cinemas in 2028 may have to go bankrupt, not only cinemas, but also movies.

Because she thinks this needs to be reshuffled.

She believes that many practitioners know where the problem lies. These practitioners don't want to change now just because the knife is just on their necks. After all, they haven't really died yet, right? ?

But when the audience really doesn't watch movies anymore, and when the audience is only willing to pay for good movies, then the practitioners will change.

"I really hope my guess is wrong, I really hope the film market can be more prosperous, and I really hope these famous directors can really have a sense of responsibility."

Lao Zhong said this at the end.

Of course, no one said Lao Zhong was right this time.

"No, Lao Zhong, what are you thinking about??? How is this possible?"

"Yes, I really think this year's Spring Festival is pretty good, and there are a lot of audiences in the cinema."

"Yes, I think so too. Anyway, there are still audiences in the cinema. I think it should get better and better in 2028."

...

Many people think that Lao Zhong is a bit worried. After all, it is possible that you say that the cinema is getting worse and worse, but you say that a group of cinemas will die, and a group of movies will also die. Isn't this a bit alarmist? ?

However, some people think it is completely possible.

You have to know that the current TV dramas are all hype, that is, they are all self-entertainment in the circle, and the so-called prosperity is false.

Under such circumstances, everyone thinks that it is really possible to die.

It has to be said that this is because Lao Zhong has a great influence in the circle, and she does not need to rely on this so-called marketing fee to live, so she dares to tell the truth.

There are fewer and fewer people in this circle who dare to tell the truth.

In addition, most people in the industry do not dare to tell the truth.

Before, Lin Xing dared to tell the truth, but now Lin Xing’s words have almost become a joke, because everyone does not believe what Lin Xing said.

Or the real industry is still in the hands of a group of old Dengs, who still control various awards, so they represent the mainstream.

But the audience can vote with their hands.

Just like some directors can win awards one after another, but their box office can no longer go back.

The reason is actually the same.

Lao Zhong thinks that even Lin Xing is not afraid of this, so what’s wrong with her telling the truth? ?

This matter has made a big fuss.

Even when Lin Xing was interviewed by CCTV celebrities face to face, he also saw the heat in the news.

"Who is Lao Zhong?"

Ding Chunling called Lin Xing again: "Why do I feel like this old Zhong is using you as a weapon?"

"You're overthinking."

Lin Xing shook his head and said: "Although I don't know who she is, I believe she has no ill intentions towards me."

"Yes, I used to believe that she had no ill intentions towards you, but Ah Xing, she said what you said again during the Spring Festival. Isn't this trying to create hatred for you???"

Ding Chunling felt a little angry and said, "The film industry is a little dissatisfied with you now."

"Yes, since they are already dissatisfied with me, why should I care if they will be more dissatisfied?"

Lin Xinghun said nonchalantly: "And I just took a look at what Lao Zhong said. I think there is nothing wrong with what Lao Zhong said. Next year, no, I should say this year, regardless of the theater chain or the many employees. , I think it is indeed possible that some of them will die..."

Lin Xing is also paying attention to the Spring Festival movie this Spring Festival. He and Lao Zhong have similar ideas. It seems that the Spring Festival movie movie is very lively, but in fact the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies or discussing is decreasing.

It’s just that the enthusiasm for watching movies is declining. Even the enthusiasm for watching movies during the Spring Festival is declining. So will it be good this year? ?

Lin Xing also holds a pessimistic view.

Especially when the economy is in pain, and everyone has no money, how can they be willing to go to a movie with a movie ticket that costs forty or fifty? ? ?

"Hello Lin Xing."

Half an hour later, Lin Xing arrived at the interview location and met Wen Xing, the host of the interview.

"Hello."

After Lin Xing and Wen Xing briefly chatted for a few words, the interview began.

“Have you seen the discussion online about this year’s Spring Festival stalls??”

Wen Xing asked with a smile on Lin Xing.

Lin Xing said in confusion: "Which aspect are you referring to??"

"That is to say, although the box office of this year's Spring Festival is good, the overall quality of film reviews is not good, and it is also said that this year's movie theaters and movies will die..."

Wen Xing said: "We all know that you are currently filming two movies, so what do you think of these remarks??"

At this point, Wen Xing smiled and said, "You seem to have made similar remarks before?"

"You said this, I think you are quite right. The film market will definitely become more and more difficult in the future, because now people are less and less willing to go to the cinema. Whether it is short plays or live broadcasts, they are actually occupied. Everyone has so much time, and more and more people have become accustomed to the fast pace of short dramas. They just want to have more and more fun, so naturally their patience will become lower and lower. "

Lin Xing explained: "I think under such a situation, this year will definitely be quite difficult."

Wen Xing frowned and said, "So is the market really going to be bad?"

Lam The requirements will become higher and higher, which means that what we practitioners need to do is to shoot better works.”

Lin Xing has said these words before, and they are basically the same.

Next, following the topic of movies, we talked about the two movies "Death on Earth" and "The Streets".

"Yes, I am very confident in these two movies, and I believe that the audience will be able to see our sincerity."

"No, no, confidence does not mean confidence in the box office. I think good movies often do not necessarily have good box office."

"Everything still depends on the market situation."

"I can't say when it will be scheduled. I can only say that I hope it will be as soon as possible."

…

After talking about these two movies, we finally started talking about the situation before 2023.

We even talked about the situation in 2010 when [Xingyaohai] was established.

"It's just good luck."

Lin Xing said with a smile: "I don't think it was my own persistence that brought me success. To be honest, how many actors are still persisting now, and how many good actors may persist for a lifetime without being discovered by the public, so I really It’s just good luck.”

Speaking of doing charity, Lin Xing felt that it was nothing.

He thinks this is what he should do.

With great ability comes great responsibility.

The interview lasted almost 2 hours, and in the end, both Wen Xing and Lin Xing were speaking off-script.

Everything finally came to the Spring Festival Gala.

"Yeah, when I got the call and asked me to play such a role, I was actually nervous. What's more important is that I had never worked with Mr. Guo Haishan, and I was still acting in a comedy."

"Later I found out that it was because I participated in "Comedy Must Laugh" and was seen by teacher Fan Zhishan, and then he suggested to teacher Guo Haishan that I should act."

"How do I have the ability to modify the script and lines? In fact, it is just a matter of everyone working together to improve the script."

Lin Xing still strongly denied his role.

But it didn't work this time.

"Lin Xing, please stop being modest. When we were interviewing you, we went to interview Teacher Guo. He had a VCR for you."

Wen Xing suddenly smiled and said.

This really surprised Lin Xing. After all, Guo Haishan had already said that he would no longer accept interviews, and he didn't respond much to the Spring Festival Gala. ,

"Lin Xing is really talented. I really like this young man. When I was his age, I was far from being so clear-headed, or even self-disciplined."

"His scriptwriting ability is underestimated by everyone, but I think what everyone underestimates more is his talent for comedy."

"He is a down-to-earth person. Such a person can succeed in any role. Many actors go straight to the sky after becoming famous and have never been down-to-earth. How can they act well?"

"My current health does not allow me to perform on the Spring Festival Gala again, and I don't want to say goodbye to the audience. If nothing else, I will still make movies and TV series in the future and meet the audience."

"I want to work with Baigong Lin Xing in the next movie, but I also need to see if Lin Xing has time."

...

This is more of a compliment to Lin Xing than an interview with Guo Haishan.

In fact, Wen Xing was a little surprised when she went to interview Guo Haishan. You know, she has known Guo Haishan for more than 20 years. She has even interviewed Guo Haishan several times, and Guo Haishan has also appeared on the celebrity face-to-face twice.

But when has Guo Haishan praised someone so much? ?

Never.

This is the first time.

Because of this, Wen Xing is more interested in Lin Xing.

In today's interview, Wen Xing feels that Lin Xing in front of him is really a smart person, with a very high emotional intelligence, and he really knows what to say at the right time.

"How is it?"

Wen Xing smiled and said: "Do you have anything to say about Mr. Guo's praise?"

"I can only say that Mr. Guo praises me too much."

Lin Xing smiled and said: "In fact, everyone can see that if there is no Mr. Guo, this "Red Sorghum Model Team" will not have such a phenomenal popularity. As for me, I am just the icing on the cake. I really benefit from Mr. Guo's light."

At this time, Lin Xing is still humble.

Wen Xing asked directly: "Teacher Guo said he wants to work with you on the next movie, is this possible?"

"Of course it's possible, but it depends on the time and the script. In fact, Teacher Guo told me about it before, but no one can say for sure now."

Lin Xing shook his head and said: "My priority now is mainly on the movie "Hot Street". "

For Lin Xing, he doesn't take polite words seriously.

To be honest, it's still unclear whether Guo Haishan is willing to cooperate with him.

At this time, you can't say too much.

After the interview, Lin Xing flew back to the set of "Hot Street".

After half a month, Lin Xing's interview was also online. (End of this chapter)
