Chapter 236 New Year’s Eve Drama [Part 2]
[I have a headache, and there are two more updates in the evening. 】
Meanwhile, the apartment living room.
The coffee table was piled high with beer, champagne, fresh and dried fruits, and all kinds of fried goods. Xu Kun was standing in the middle of the sofa, with Chen Xuebin on the left and Li Yixiang on the right, forming a strong relationship with Bao Qiang and Wen Zhang on both sides.
Further out, there is Zhu Yawen sitting on a small horse.
Compared to the decentralization of the sister group, the topics on the men's side mainly revolve around "The Boss" which will be aired tonight, and "The Journey" which will be released next.
Of course, during this period, we also had to talk about the short drama that suddenly became popular on the Internet recently: "A Murder Case Caused by a Steamed Bun".
This short drama was uploaded to Tudou on the 28th. After a few days of fermentation, it has become popular from online to offline. I heard that it has begun to affect the box office of "The Promise".
Xu Kun finally understood why the two kings and Feng Xiaogang were laughing so gloatingly before - as expected, there was naked hatred between peers!
"Can Director Chen tolerate this?"
As the oldest one among them, Chen Xuebin had just heard Xu Kun talk about it and watched the short play on the computer, so he was the most interested in it.
I just heard him chuckle and say: "When I went to Beijing and Taiwan a while ago, Director Chen left the meeting angrily because the new female host said, 'If the box office is not as good as expected, will it hurt your dignity?'" , scared the big-breasted hostess to death.”
Xu Kun took a sip of beer and agreed absently: "It is true that the bears of female hosts are generally bigger than those of actresses."
"Who asked you this?"
Chen Xuebin rolled his eyes and knew that Xu Kun was under a lot of pressure, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "We have done everything we can, just calm down and wait for the results - besides, you have always been lucky, so this This time should be no exception.”
"What you're saying, it seems like I'm relying on luck..."
Just as Xu Kun was about to retort, the cell phone placed on the coffee table suddenly rang. Seeing that the caller ID was from Wang Zhonglei, he quickly muted the TV and answered the phone.
Wang Zhonglei's excited voice immediately came from the phone receiver: "Kun'er, good news, great news!"
"Mr. Wang, what's the good news?"
"Our biggest rival in the Valentine's Day release, "Memoirs of a Geisha," failed to pass the review and is likely to be withdrawn!"
Could it be that I am really the son of luck?
After hanging up the phone, Xu Kun told everyone the news with a strange expression. Bao Qiang, Wen Zhang, and Zhu Yawen were all very excited, but Chen Xuebin and Li Yixiang were a little surprised.
Chen Xuebin commented: "Normally, in what year can radio and television not find a few blind people to scare chickens and monkeys? The Chinese should not film something like "Memoirs of a Geisha", let alone come to China to make money after filming."
Look, it's almost time.
Xu Kun unmuted the sound, and everyone's attention was focused on the TV.
The opening song is "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing" written by Dao Lang and sung by Alan Tam. The crew only bought the copyright and Xu Kun sang the cover himself - his voice is not bad, it's almost impossible to sing, but in the recording studio, every sentence It's a pretty good finished product.
The end of the film is "Invisible Wings" by Wanwan singer Angela Chang, which will be released simultaneously [note, the original song was released on January 6, 2006].

Clubhouse private room.
"Hey, brother! We haven't seen you for a long time. Where are you? Hey, friend, if it's really you, please say hello!"
"What are you doing? Change the channel quickly!"
Jiang Yiyanxu kicked Jiang Xin and urged: "The acting has already started!"
"Why are you so anxious? I'm not in a hurry when I act."
Jiang Xin changed the channel and asked curiously: "That one just now was the sitcom starring Wang Baoqiang, right? Not to mention, the opening song is quite unique." When the TV screen was fixed on Beijing Satellite TV, Xu Kun's somewhat vicissitudes of life The voice then sounded:
"We come from different heavens and places. You always feel that being with me is a boundless and cold fear. I really love you so much and I am willing to change myself..."
Listening to this song, Qin Lan and Jiang Xin, who are familiar with the plot, unanimously commented: "The theme song sung by Brother Kun is really suitable for the occasion. The overbearing president fell in love with me, isn't it a replica of the wolf falling in love with the sheep?"
"Yes, the lyrics are simply a true portrayal of the TV series."
Liu Shishi on the side didn't speak, but nodded silently. Just that sentence, "You always feel that being with me is a boundless and cold fear" made countless plots spin in her mind like a revolving lantern.
Hao Lei also commented: "It's just a bit low-key and not bright enough - your drama shouldn't be a sad drama, right?"
"It probably doesn't count."
Jiang Xin thought about it and said: "The heroine played by Shi Shi has actually not suffered much. She is soaked in a honey pot. At most, she is struggling in her heart and being pretentious."
"Okay, okay."
Gan Min said: "Don't say anything, let's start!"
With the last sentence, "I believe this tenderness will surely move the world," the TV series officially began.
When the characters' backgrounds and relationships were introduced in the first episode, everyone was chatting while drinking, and the discussion was quite lively.
But in the second episode, when Meng Hao, played by Xu Kun, began to pursue fiercely towards Lin Yuxin, played by Liu Shishi, the number of people discussing the plot and acting gradually decreased, and a strong sour smell spread in the box. Come, Liu Shishi feels quite uncomfortable.
By the time the second episode was finished, Li Xiaolu, who was already half-drunk, couldn't help but curl her lips and said: "If this bitch is half as dedicated as in the TV series - no, one-tenth of the dedicated, my mother and her children will be... "
"Cough~"
Huo Siyan interrupted Li Xiaolu and smiled at Liu Shishi: "Shi Shi's performance is really good, and Brother Kun is a bit like a happy enemy - I think you are more photogenic than Liu Yifei in this TV series."
Although he received praise, Liu Shishi always felt like a thorn in his back.
After regaining her composure, she was about to say a few humble words when Jiang Xin said anxiously: "Let's not talk about acting skills for now, do you think this drama can be popular?!"
Hao Lei commented seriously: "The beginning is not bad. The big boss falls in love with the girlfriend of his brother's best friend. Although the relationship is a bit messy, the sense of dramatic conflict has been created."
Yang Mi then asked curiously: "Is that piano really so expensive?"
Xiong Naijin: "Isn't this Meng Hao too overbearing? He said he wanted to pursue her in front of her boyfriend! If Lin Yuxin agrees, wouldn't it mean that he dislikes the poor and loves the rich?"
Huo Siyan said with a smile: "This Meng Hao has never been in love before, so he only knows how to throw money at people."
Liu Shishi nodded secretly at the side. Meng Hao in the early and mid-term just knew how to throw money at people. That kind of method of using power to suppress others would only make people feel disgusted and annoying - at least that's what she thought.
But in the middle and later stages, he became very gentle, so gentle that people couldn't help but get addicted to it and couldn't extricate themselves.
At this time, Li Xiaolu suddenly stood up and said: "It doesn't matter if he is angry or not, I just want to climb the tower now - let's go, pay what needs to be paid, and let go of what needs to be done!"
Everyone was speechless.
However, she was used to having fits in the group, so except for a few insiders, no one took her words seriously.
Even when everyone finally dispersed, Xiong Naijin and Yang Mi still wanted to follow Li Xiaolu and inquire about Zhao Baogang's new drama.
As a result, before they could get together, Li Xiaolu was kidnapped by Huo Siyan and Jiang Yiyan.
Looking at the backs of the three of them, Xiong Naijin and Yang Mi couldn't help complaining in their hearts, talking about sharing resources, isn't it actually necessary to separate people who are close to each other?
Only Gan Min knew clearly that the three of them might have really gone to 'climb the tower' together.
