Chapter 204 National Idol
Chen Linfeng signed on the signature wall.
The host Liu Yiwei asked Liu Qianqian, "Are the two of you announcing something by walking on the red carpet together?"
Liu Qianqian was confused, "What are you announcing?"
"Well, you see, people who don't have a good relationship usually don't walk on the red carpet together, right?"
"We have a very good relationship, we have been classmates for three years."
Chen Linfeng secretly thought, this silly kid also knows how to deal with the media.
In her previous interviews, she was said to be upright, revealing a beauty that had not experienced social immersion, but now she is much better.
Then it was Liu Qianqian’s turn to sign, and the host turned to Chen Linfeng.
Liu Yiwei didn't make any jokes this time, and just asked some very common topics.
"Is Director Xiao Chen confident about winning this award?"
"It's okay. I'm lucky to win, but I'm lucky to lose. Everyone is great. It depends on luck."
"You are too modest. Last year, the ratings of "Lotus Lantern" were ranked first according to Suo Fuli's data."
"Yes, luck, luck."
< br>After a few gossips, Chen Linfeng was about to enter the venue with Liu Qianqian who had returned from signing.
Liu Yiwei was helpless. He looked like an old fox and didn't speak with the energy of a young man.
Given the other party's status in the industry, he cannot yet ask questions that may cause displeasure.
But despite this, the organizer is already very happy. It is big news that these two can come.
Especially when we walk together on the red carpet, the tabloids can easily feed themselves. This is a hot topic for their new awards event.
Entering the venue, they were seated relatively forward, and celebrities and entertainers stood up to say hello along the way.
Chen Linfeng responded one by one, and the movement caused people in the front row to look back.
Zhang Weijian, who was sitting with Wang Jing, couldn't bear to see such a boss-like appearance, and muttered, "It's too arrogant. I don't know how to restrain myself at all."
Wang Jing glanced at him and said, "I think you just don't know how to restrain yourself. Is this what you can say, and you think you haven't offended enough mainland bosses?"
Because of what happened the year before last, there are so few I've had so many opportunities, but my memory really doesn't improve at all.
When talking about this, Zhang Weijian felt a little wilted.
Just at this moment, Chen Linfeng came over and Wang Jing raised his hand, "Director Chen."
"Hey, Director Wang." Chen Linfeng paused for a moment, ignoring the bald head next to Wang Jing.
"I was joking with people before, saying that "Little Fish and Flowers" directed by Wang should be renamed "Survivor List". Your adaptation has made such big changes, but it still looks good. It’s really not easy.”
Wang Jing was very pleased with the other party’s disguised praise, and his face broke into laughter.
"I am just making changes blindly, your "Datang Empire" this year is the real deal."
The two chatted for a while, then Chen Linfeng excused himself and went to find his place.
This time the organizer's position arrangement is generally based on the crew, and generally takes care of the relationship between the actors.
For example, Chen Linfeng, Shi Xiaolong, Liu Qianqian, and Shu Chang, everyone in the industry knows that they have a good relationship.
So the crews of "Lotus Lantern", "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "Jingwei Reclamation" are arranged relatively close to each other.
He glanced around, saw Yu Shengming, and walked straight over there.
"Uncle Yu, I haven't seen you for a long time. What have you been busy with recently?"
Yu Shengming and Chen Linfeng were not polite, "We just met during the Chinese New Year. Besides, you have been in the news every day these past few months. You can’t see me, but I’m watching you every day.”
As a well-known TV drama director in the industry who has produced two hit dramas, he will certainly not lack filming opportunities.
I also took on a costume drama last year, but the results were far behind the two dramas I was most proud of, so I didn’t want to say it out loud.
Chen Linfeng chatted for a few words, then kept turning his head to scan the actors on the scene.
Liu Qianqian asked curiously, "Xiao Feng, you keep looking back and forth, what are you looking for?"
"I want to see if there is a suitable candidate for the second male lead."
"Ah, this is it. , you are still undecided, but I heard from Sister Mei that you were very decisive in the past and could choose actors quickly."
Chen Linfeng sat down next to Liu Qianqian without waiting for an answer. Hu Ge asked, "A minor role in director Xiao Chen's new drama?"
Chen Linfeng nodded, "Well, a second male role."
Hu Ge looked very interested, "What kind of role is it? Do you think I am suitable?"
Chen Linfeng looked Hu Ge up and down. He had seen too many photos of male actors these days, so naturally I have also seen pictures of Hu Ge.
The second male lead in the original work is a rich second-generation affectionate dog-licking character, and he does not have any high acting requirements.
Chen Linfeng’s own consideration is mainly about appearance.
In my previous life, I was disgusted by those weirdos who played extremely handsome men in ancient puppets, as well as the ugly children from second-generation families.
The first criterion for the idol dramas he shoots in this life is that no matter what, the appearance must pass the test.
Hu Ge undoubtedly meets the standard. Chen Linfeng also put him on the list before, followed by Zhang Junning, who worked with him in "Chu Liuxiang".
Other front-line players such as Huang Xiaoming and Xie Tingfeng have also considered it, and they were the first to consider it.
However, these latter people have reached a certain level and may not be willing to play the second male lead.
After Sister Mei contacted me, it turned out to be true.
For such a second male lead who didn't have a very good personality and couldn't guarantee screen time, all the agents in these companies declined in the end.
Huang Xiaoming also called to explain that he was filming "New Shanghai Beach" and had a schedule conflict.
Anyway, I’m stuck here.
Now that Hu Ge took the initiative to ask, Chen Linfeng also briefly described the character setting.
“Such a role doesn’t have many roles. Are you sure you want to play it?”
Hu Ge nodded seriously.
He also has his own considerations. Regardless of whether the role is outstanding or not, establishing further connections is the most important thing.
At first glance, Director Xiao Chen is not just a character who will only stay in TV series. Maybe he will enter the big screen in two years.
He is in Tang Ren Company and has really no film resources. He can only find a way on his own. Director Xiao Chen seems to him to be an excellent opportunity.
Chen Linfeng pondered for a moment and felt that it was not impossible. Now, he was a little tired of the hesitation of a novice like himself.
It's a non-key role, which is pretty much it. Who should I show it to in a coquettish way?
Chen Linfeng was about to agree, but then he turned around and thought, that’s not right.
“Didn’t you take over a drama from your own company and start filming next?”
Hu Ge smiled, “As you said, this is a not very important role. As for the role, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" won't start filming until about August, so it should take about a month and a half to finish filming my scenes."
That's true.
Chen Linfeng actually didn't hear about Tang Ren's new drama, but he suddenly thought of the news about Hu Ge's car accident in his previous life, and vaguely remembered that the time was in the second half of this year. Along with the news, there was mention of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" which was being filmed at the time, and Tang Ren's insistence on continuing filming until Hu Ge recovered from his injury.
I have to say that in this matter, Tang Ren is still humane. Whether it is to win people's hearts or for some other reason, it is very rare for him to do this.
As for whether to choose Hu Ge, even if it is to save Hu Ge’s dead assistant.
When Chen Linfeng thought of this, he agreed.
Liu Qianqian sat in the middle and listened strangely. Li Xiaoyao turned around and became the character who liked her.
Does Xiaofeng have any deep meaning in this?
She turned her head and looked at the other person with searching eyes, making Chen Linfeng a little confused.
“What’s wrong?”
Liu Qianqian shook her head.
"Nothing"
She didn't have any bad feelings towards Hu Ge. At that time, this person on the set hardly talked to her, and he always went to An Yixuan. She didn't know why.
Actually, this is also related to Chen Linfeng's visit to the crew when filming started. Liu Qianqian acted so close to this person, she is a smart person, and she won't get close to others randomly.
Of course, there is also the reason why Sister Mei has been staying on the set to keep an eye on the plot and not let it be changed.
But Liu Qianqian didn’t know the reason.
She then covered her mouth with her hands and asked in a low voice, "You have chosen the second male lead, who do you want to choose the second female lead?"
The second female lead has fewer roles in comparison. The character silently likes the second male lead and is envious of the female lead.
The relationship between these people can be said to be a typical love triangle. It only takes the male lead to like the second female lead to make it a real cycle.
However, the male protagonist and the female protagonist typically run in both directions, so it seems a bit pitiful for the two men to be the two women.
Chen Linfeng thought about it. Since he chose Hu Ge, he might as well play tricks to the end.
Either try An Yixuan or Yang Mi. You can consider this later.
He shook his head mysteriously, "You will know in a few days."
At this time The awards show had already begun. There were cameras facing the audience. Chen Linfeng sat upright and looked forward.
The Fengyun Festival is a very interesting party. The venue chosen is an old-fashioned theater, and there is a song and dance performance at the beginning. It looks like watching a theatrical performance. The smell is strange no matter how you look at it.
In particular, there was a link to announce the top ten ratings of TV series. The award presenters were required to read out the dramas and ratings one by one. It was a long and dry list, and he felt embarrassed watching it below.
The program team originally wanted Chen Linfeng to be the award guest, but he decisively refused.
Now it’s Hu Ge who is on stage to read, it’s really hard work.
The whole process was boring, and the host was not very relaxed. The effect of the program was indeed far behind Oscar, even though he couldn't understand American jokes at the time.
The Fengyun Festival is relatively cautious in awarding awards. Basically, one award corresponds to one person. At present, the awards have not been as inflated as in later generations.
In the end, Chen Linfeng won the Mainland’s Most Popular Actor and Best TV Series Score, which is better than nothing.
"Lotus Lantern" ranked first in the top ten ratings, and the best screenwriter was awarded to Nine Years. The Fengyun Award, which is equivalent to the best TV series, was given to "Bright Sword".
It’s not surprising. The ones that attracted the most attention last year were "Lotus Lantern", "Emperor of Han Dynasty", "Bright Sword" and "Beijing Smoke and Clouds". Most of the awards went to these four dramas.
Both Liu Qianqian and Hu Ge only got the Most Potential Newcomer Award. After the awards were distributed, she came back to face Chen Linfeng, and she could hang a teapot on her lips.
When I sat down and faced the camera, I immediately returned to my smiling expression.
Chen Linfeng looked funny,
"It's not a very valuable award ceremony. Do you need to pay so much attention to it?"
Liu Qianqian gritted her teeth and said, "You are very relaxed. I can't even win any heavyweight awards on such an occasion. , can you still hope to win the title of Best Actress or Best Actress in the future?”
This is true.
Chen Linfeng thought about his past life, and it seemed that Liu Qianqian had never won any major awards worth mentioning.
He comforted, "You are still young and you have a promising future."
Liu Qianqian puffed up her face and said, "I always feel that it is very uncomfortable to hear you say this."
"Ah," Chen Linfeng choked. If you think about it, it is indeed a bit Versailles.
He simply shut up.
After the event, Sina Entertainment released a lot of live photos of Chen Linfeng and Liu Qianqian.
Netizens were very happy,
"Xiao Chen is finally willing to go out for business. I haven't seen anyone for two months."
"Yes, since the talk show on CCTV, there has been no one."
< br>However, those female fans have mixed feelings.
“Why would Liu Qianqian walk on the red carpet with Brother Feng?”
“There’s nothing really going on between these two, right?”
"Definitely not, I'm just a classmate."
"That's right, the media are reporting random things. If you don't know, you think my brother Feng is really looking for a girlfriend. Even if he is really looking for a girlfriend, he will only You'll find me."
"What are you thinking about, Brother Feng?"
The comments soon became very noisy.
The majority of Chen Linfeng's book fans won't care about this. They are generally very Buddhist, and only after Xiao Chen published the book, they will focus on it for a period of time.
Other times, it’s just the usual reminders. However, their group is huge and their methods of reminders are various. What gives Chen Linfeng the most headache is that he often meets the reminders offline.
The mentality of male TV drama fans is similar to that of female fans, and they are also very complicated.
A large number of them also like Liu Qianqian. They are really sad and happy about the close relationship between Liu Qianqian and Chen Linfeng.
There is a mentality that hopes these two people will continue to work together to produce excellent TV series, but there is also a heartache that does not want to see the heart-beating girl fall into the arms of Xiao Chen.
That would feel like being bullied, which is really an unbearable pain in life.
The other part are CP fans of Chen Linfeng and Shu Chang. "Lotus Lantern" is Chen Linfeng's first TV series after college. Many drama fans started to like him from here.
Even later fans will find ways to make up for the previous work.
So "Lotus Lantern" holds a lot of weight in the hearts of fans.
Of course, in "The Unruly Princess", there are also some Chen*Zhang CPs, but the stars of the country are still not talented enough, and the scale is not that big.
Generally speaking, Chen Linfeng’s idolization trend is still very obvious.
He has tried his best to let the network group find ways to control relevant public opinion.
However, on the one hand, the network group cannot adopt overly obvious methods, such as deleting posts and banning people. After all, they are also fans. It would be bad if they are too tough and turn fans into fans.
In addition, most of those who are fanatically fond of him are junior students, and most of them are little girls. Their emotions are not very rational to begin with.
If you like idols, you will really die.
