Chapter 228: Being caught by Shang Yuxin (physical sense)

Because of the help from Fengxiang Pictures throughout the whole process, the opening ceremony in Hong Kong City was particularly smooth.

Even with some things that the young director Xu Kong didn't understand, the people on the other side were very dedicated to help.

I have to say that Xu Kong was also a little embarrassed.

Cao Bentao, the chairman of Fengxiang Pictures, even came to attend the opening ceremony of "Sweet Honey" in person.

This is enough to give Xu Kong face.

This made it so that even though Xu Kong had not signed any paper agreement before, he would probably be embarrassed to go back on his word after accepting investment from the other party to make a movie.

Although they are all small things, at most they save Xu Kong and the entire crew some time and effort.

But attitude is important, and this favor must have been owed.

……

Although he brought a lot of people from his own crew, he still recruited a lot of people from Hong Kong City.

On the first day of filming, everything seemed to go very smoothly because none of the scenes were too difficult.

The main purpose is to let myself and the two leading actors Shang Yuxin feel better.

It's true that Xu Kong hasn't been fully devoted to acting for a long time.

In "The Long Season", he didn't have many roles, and he was almost the first actor in the crew to finish filming earlier.

Later, I stayed on the set, mostly as a director.

This time in "Sweet Honey", his roles suddenly increased, and he was not very easy to act.

You still need to spend a lot of energy on the character.

Although the male protagonist Li Xiaojun is a typical scumbag, his personal ethics can be said to be quite despised.

However, the effect of the film in the previous life does not make people feel greasy, and it can even maintain the youthful and ignorant feeling.

The actor's appearance plays a certain role in this aspect, but performance still requires certain skills.

……

"Click!"

"I'll stop here for today."

After taking a look at the sky, Xu Kong made a decision quickly.

It has to be said that shooting out of season still requires a lot of energy.

Xu Kongyou considered changing the time to winter.

After all, the impact on the plot is actually not big.

But after taking a few shots, the results were still not satisfactory.

In the end, the spring time point was still maintained.

Shang Yuxin is wearing the clothes of Li Qiao in the movie. Although it is the style of the last century, if it were another person, it would be hard not to give people a somewhat old-fashioned feeling.

But when it comes to Shang Yuxin, it does match up surprisingly well.

Instead, it suppressed the other person's original feeling of pure lust.

Although it still looks very innocent, it has more of an eccentric feel.

At this point, it is actually very similar to Lin Yueru.

But one is in ancient costume and the other is in modern nostalgic style, so they don’t give people a particularly dramatic feeling.

……

"Director Xu, were you secretly looking at me just now?"

Shang Yuxin seemed to have grasped Xu Kong's handle.

Approaching Xu Kong, he asked in a low voice with a sly smile.

Xu Kong didn't say anything, but he didn't deny it either.

Although Shang Yuxin was very involved in this role, she was still able to detach herself outside the scene, especially in front of Xu Kong.

"If Director Xu wants to watch it, why don't I go find you in the evening and we can watch it all~"

This time, Shang Yuxin came directly to Xu Kong's ear. Xu Kong could smell the faint scent of perfume on the other party's body, and at the same time, the faint scent was sprayed on the base of his ear.

"Can you pay attention to the impact..."

Xu Kong stopped before he finished speaking.

Just now, Shang Yuxin found Xu Kong peeking at her, so she thought she had caught the other party's hand.

But now, she really directly grabbed Xu Kong's other handle (in the physical sense).

……

"Don't worry, no one will see."

Realizing that Xu Kong glanced at the crew who were busy cleaning up on the set with a guilty conscience, Shang Yuxin said with a smile.

Being caught by others, Xu Kong really couldn't resist at this time.

Fortunately, Shang Yuxin obviously didn't intend to do anything too extreme. He just pinched it lightly twice and then let go.

"This time Youyou is not here, and finally no one will hinder us."

Shang Yuxin said with a half-smile.

Obviously, she is still bitter about the fact that Song Youyou stared at Xu Kong very hard when filming Fairy Sword.

Xu Kong glared at the other party helplessly.

Now Shang Yuxin is no longer afraid at all.

He even wished that Xu Kong would "punish" himself like before.

From the state of a frightened bird, he once again changed back to his original appearance where every move was so attractive.

……

The filming in Hong Kong City went smoothly.

In addition to cooperating with Shang Yuxin's flirting from time to time, Xu Kong focused most of his energy on the filming of the movie.

But the one who performed the most consistently was naturally Guan Hua, the best actor.

In addition to his own role, he was also directly brought in by Xu Kong to teach him and Shang Yuxin some acting skills and experience.

In fact, whether it is Shang Yuxin or Xu Kong, strictly speaking, their acting skills are definitely not bad.

Shang Yuxin is because she already has some talents.

Xu Kong, on the other hand, has played enough roles in his previous life, and now that he has a body that is good in all aspects, his acting skills have improved slightly.

But compared to Guan Hua, both of them can definitely only be regarded as juniors with relatively good potential.

……

Not long after, Xu Kong finally received an invitation from Wu Youxue.

The latest episode of "Singer" will be broadcast live soon.

As a kick-off singer who had previously agreed to participate, Xu Kong also needed to go to rehearsal one or two days in advance.

It just so happens that the filming of "Sweet Honey" has stabilized, and the crew will take a short break for a few days, which will not have much impact.

Just think of it as a few days of leave for the crew who have been planning to shoot and have hardly had much rest.

As for the songs for this "Singer" performance, including accompaniments, Xu Kong has already prepared them.

To him, this matter was actually not important.

But after all, the stage of "Singer" is not small, and the people competing on the same stage are all well-known and powerful singers in the Chinese music scene.

Xu Kong still made some preparations.

He didn't expect to win the championship, but it was not too difficult for Xu Kong to reach the fourth-highest score in the same period.

……

Xu Kong behaved relatively relaxedly, but Mango and Wu Youxue paid great attention to him as a kick-off singer this time.

There is no way, the data of "Singer" has fallen again and again this year, and it is no longer even possible to maintain the number one variety show in the same period.

As early as a week ago, it was surpassed by a reality show from Ocean TV.

It can be said that Xu Kong, a popular singer, is the biggest hope for Wu Youxue and the current "Singer" program.

Fortunately, Xu Kong's popularity and traffic did not disappoint Wu Youxue's attention.

Before Xu Kong officially arrived in Star City, the program team of "Singer" couldn't wait to officially announce that Xu Kong was the latest singer to be kicked out of the show. In less than half an hour, this news directly reached the top of the hot search list.

Obviously, if it were anyone in the current music scene, it would probably not have such an obvious effect.

Now Xu Kong can almost be said to be the most popular and popular among the new generation of singers.

It still attracts the attention of fans and quite a few passers-by and netizens without much marketing.

……

"Damn it, didn't I say before that Xu Kong would definitely not participate? I didn't expect that he went anyway!"

"Xukong is a singer who kicks the show? I haven't watched this show for many episodes. If it's Xu Kong who kicks the show, there seems to be something interesting."

"The program team finally thought about it. I said that we should have invited Xu Kong, a newcomer who is very popular and everyone loves to watch!"

"After following a few episodes, it became more and more boring. Now that Xu Kong is here to play, I feel like I can continue watching again."

The reactions from netizens online are nothing short of unreal.

The data for the first issue of this year's "Singer" is actually quite good. Although it is not as good as last year's "Singer", it is probably the best record this year.

But in the follow-up, the data began to fall almost in a straight line.

There's no way around it. Although the singers on the show are all powerful singers, they are also the ones who don't have much popularity.

Although it is not outdated, in terms of traffic alone, it is definitely not as good as some newcomers.

The most important thing is that this year's "Singer" is not so explosive.

Last year, the reason why this program became popular again was actually related to the live broadcast format and the competition between these powerful domestic singers and two European and American singers.

Everyone definitely doesn’t want one of their own to lose.

Although it did not particularly arouse strong oppositional sentiments, the popularity of related discussions has remained high.

For example, everyone is asking who can beat the two foreign singers.

But the same method worked the first time, but by the second time, netizens had already been desensitized.

So this time, neither the live broadcast nor the two well-known European and American singers also invited, failed to attract much attention.

Considering the quality and production level of the program, the results will definitely not be bad.

Just compared with the exaggerated popularity last year, the gap is too big, and it is inevitable that there will be a certain gap.

At the very least, it definitely did not meet the ideal standards of a director named Wu Youxue.

……

"Xu Kong actually participated?"

Fat Bird never thought that one day he would be slapped in the face.

When "Singer" officially announced the news, he was live broadcasting.

I have said with certainty before that if Xu Kong had not participated in this year's "Singer" from the beginning, there is a high probability that he would not participate again in the future.

Unexpectedly, Mango suddenly released the news that Xu Kong would become a singer.

It caught him off guard.

In fact, when the media was invited to review this year's "Singer", Fat Bird received a call from the program team.

After all, he is now one of the music self-media companies with the largest number of fans in China.

And he is not only different from traditional music critics, but also different from some so-called music Vs.

He is almost the leader in the field of sharp reviews.

For most other people who make reaction videos to songs, it would be quite high if they have one million fans.

Fat Bird is indeed the only one who has more than five million fans on the Internet and is still on the rise.

Not only "Singer", after gaining influence, Fat Bird can be said to have received quite a few invitations.

Similar variety shows, or some marketing promotions, etc.

The influence of his downloads is indeed different from what it used to be, and invitations to "Singer" are also a normal phenomenon.

But Fat Bird still refused.

……

The main thing is that he knows his position and abilities very well.

In terms of professionalism, he is definitely not as good as those professional music critics who have rich knowledge of various music theories.

At most, he is relatively eloquent.

In other words, he can just complain.

Voting on a so-called professional stage like "Singer" will cause some controversy.

Of course, in the end, it was because he was able to realize that participating in this show would not bring high benefits to him.

In this year's "Singer", he didn't see many talking points when the lineup first came out.

Not only does it take a lot of time to participate, it is not worth mentioning, and the appearance fee given by Mango is not high.

Taking all these into consideration, there is really not much need to go.

Of course, it was also because Xu Kong did not participate.

Otherwise, Fat Bird would definitely agree without hesitation.

Although Xu Kong doesn't seem to be particularly active, even apart from the original soundtrack episode of "The Long Season", he himself has not released a single for quite some time.

But in terms of popularity, currently not only Fat Bird, but also bloggers and self-media in the entire online music field, the biggest traffic password is still Xu Kong.

In particular, Su Zhi's new album, which is currently holding a concert, has become a daily topic among most music fans.

……

It's a pity that Fat Bird can't change his mind now and participate in the show as a guest.

I can only watch it along with the live broadcast of the show.

"But Xu Kong suddenly decided to participate, which is indeed a bit strange..."

Fat Bird looked at the various discussions on the barrage and couldn't help but start to speculate.

"The data of "Singer" in recent issues has indeed dropped too much."

"It is not ruled out that Xu Kong was invited to put out the fire."

Although it sounds a bit outrageous.

But after Fat Bird finished speaking, he analyzed it and felt that it made sense.

First of all, the relationship between Xu Kong and Mango is already good. His previous rejection was probably because of his own movie shooting.

Now I suddenly agreed to participate again as a kicking singer.

Obviously, it is too far-fetched to say that Xu Kong changed his mind temporarily.

If Mango specially invited Xu Kong to help because of the popularity and data of the show, it is very possible.

……

"It will definitely be no problem if you succeed in kicking the gym."

"But if we win the championship..."

Although the popularity of "Singer" continues to decline, Fat Bird still watches every issue due to work needs.

Let’s not talk about things that don’t have much new ideas.

As far as the strength of the singers is concerned, it is indeed much better than last year.

Xu Kong's singing skills are naturally not weak, but whether he can compare with those powerful singers is still unknown, and Fat Bird is generally pessimistic.

The biggest advantage is definitely an advantage that no other contestant on the show has.

That is the unique creative ability.

If Xu Kong just takes out new songs that are of very high quality and have not been released before every issue, it would be a bit unreasonable.

As a loyal Xu Chui, Fat Bird actually doesn't have much confidence in whether he can win the championship.

But what is certain is that Xu Kong, a popular singer, will most likely make the show that was originally a bit of a backwater finally become interesting.
