I Really Can't Act

From the moment Mei Zihan emerged, Qin Ling knew that Mei Zihan would be his biggest threat.Sure enough, Mei Zihan quickly overwhelmed him and became the number one niche student, instantly becoming an opponent that Qin Ling couldn't ignore.

But Qin Ling is not without his own advantages. He became popular earlier than Mei Zihan, and his fan base is more stable. Similarly, his appearance is more in line with the aesthetics of today's teenagers than Mei Zihan.

Having been in the entertainment industry for so many years, Qin Ling has basically gotten into all the relationships that should be climbed.Qin Ling almost got all the endorsements that should be taken.Even Qin Ling was nominated for best newcomer and best supporting actor once.But it's a pity that in terms of TV dramas, Mei Zihan almost beats Qin Ling. In terms of commercial value and box office cashability, Mei Zihan is also amazing.

Therefore, when rumors spread that Mei Zihan and Xu Ji'an were good brothers, and there was overwhelming hype about brotherhood, Qin Ling knew that Mei Zihan must have done it on purpose.Thinking about it with this idea, Qin Ling immediately understood the cleverness of this move.

"Really? The relationship between the two of you really makes me envious. I thought you would come with him for dinner this time." Qin Ling said half-truthfully.

"Even a good brother needs his own privacy. We are already so familiar, why should we care about whether we eat or not?" Mei Zihan easily fooled this question.When he decided to hype the brotherhood, Mei Zihan was already ready for someone to ask him about Xu Ji'an.

Seeing Mei Zihan's impeccable answer, Qin Ling also knew that it was unlikely that he would get a clear answer from him, so he could only smile back.

"The meal is over, and the conversation is over. If you have something to say, why don't you just say it." Qin Ling put down his chopsticks and looked at Mei Zihan quietly.

"Since you're so straightforward, I won't be polite to you anymore." Mei Zihan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, because he is really not good at dealing with such things. Qin Ling actually said that, and it seems to be very good for him. clear.

"I want to ask you what you think about the movie "One Billion Robbery"?" Mei Zihan asked bluntly.

Qin Ling didn't show any surprised expression on his face, "You ask me what I think, do you think I can easily manipulate the schedule of this movie? If I have this ability, I can still be overwhelmed by you?"

"Of course it is impossible for us to manipulate the schedule of a movie, but is the schedule of this movie really confirmed?" Mei Zihan thought of Liu Tianyi's analysis before, and moved it out intact, "Since we can escape the schedule Once, you can escape the second time. I don't believe that such a big-budget movie will choose to be released on Valentine's Day."

Who are the people who watch movies on Valentine's Day, mostly couples!They are more willing to watch sweet urban love or interesting love affairs, but they are less likely to watch such serious large-scale action movies.

The audience and consumer groups faced by each schedule are different, so the types of movies that are scheduled are naturally different.

It's just that the background of this movie is too big, at least the first day of filming in theaters will definitely be biased towards it.Even ordinary viewers who don't care about movies know how important the box office schedule on the first day of a movie is to the box office of the entire movie?

Of course, "Billion Robbery" is more than enough to overwhelm the other movies in the Valentine's Day schedule, but in this schedule, even if it overwhelms the other movies, the box office that can be harvested is limited.Isn't this kind of movie aimed at the box office, is it still aimed at the so-called feelings of the audience?

Liu Tianyi believes that even the investors who invested in "The Billion Heist" must have different understandings of the movie's schedule, and Qin Ling's friend, as one of the investors of this movie, It will definitely have its own right to speak.

What these people can do is to add a little more chips in the choice of shifting.

"About the schedule of this movie, there are indeed several opinions internally. Before you came, I had already contacted my friends." At least for now, Qin Ling and Mei Zihan have the same interests, so Qin Ling I don't mind revealing a little information.

"But he is not the biggest investor after all, and they will hold a meeting later, and they will try their best to re-select at the meeting." Qin Ling smiled and glanced at Mei Zihan, "You know the biggest investor in this movie Who is it?"

"I know, it's Changmeng Media."

"The boss of Changmeng Media is famous for being a smart person. The projects he invests in rarely suffer losses. When he found out that "The Billion Robbery" was not a good choice to be released on Valentine's Day, he Naturally, you will change your decision."

"You have a solution?" Mei Zihan was really surprised.

"The two of us are the leading actors in two other movies. Similarly, our strength also affects the box office of this movie. So recently, the two of us may need to jointly carry out a big hype to increase our attention. But these investments If the dealers realize that both of us have a lot of fans, then their mentality of changing the schedule will add another point."

Qin Ling finally came up with his own solution, which was actually a win-win strategy.

If those investors can really change their schedules, everyone will be happy, but if not, at least Qin Ling and Mei Zihan have won a lot of attention, so it can be said that they will never suffer.

To be honest, Qin Ling didn't have much confidence in these people changing their schedules, because the current schedules really weren't that good.Unless they release it two or three months in advance at one go, and release it directly in the summer file.But if you do this, you will be extra flustered, after all, there are definitely a lot of good movies in the summer vacation.

The reason why Qin Ling is willing to come to see Mei Zihan is mainly to hope that Mei Zihan can agree to join him in joint hype, because he has to do a good job of making his own movie. situation.If there is attention, at least it can make up for some losses caused by the dismal box office of the movie.

"What are you going to do?" Now that she has spent a lot of time in the entertainment circle, Mei Zihan also knows that hype is inevitable.

"You don't need to do too much. Recently, the person in charge of an audition came to me directly, hoping that I would be their judge. I hope you can also participate in this audition. There are two of us as judges, In addition to the topicality and exposure of this talent show itself, we don’t need to worry about everything.” Because the planning and director of this talent show is a person who is good at marketing and hype, they will definitely not let them have nothing to say .

"The talent show you're talking about isn't "We Are All Idols", right?" Mei Zihan asked suspiciously.

"That's it. The biggest sponsor of this show is Changmeng Media." Qin Ling nodded.

ah?This is a bit tasteless.

This talent show mainly focuses on idol stars. Although Mei Zihan claims to be a powerful faction, he can actually get a little bit of an idol star.Therefore, at the beginning of the program planning, the other party had already found Mei Zihan, hoping that Mei Zihan could attend this program as a judge.

Of course, the reward given by the other party was also very high, which made Mei Zihan slightly moved.However, the planner and director of this show are all specialized in talent shows. Their previous talent shows always had shady scenes and internal appointments, and even used editing techniques to insert some people who did not participate in the talent show.

Mei Zihan still remembered that a talent show planned by the other party was exposed to countless scandals, so it was only a simple season and there was no follow-up.

"If the two of us are willing to join this judge, we can avoid other contractual problems. If you don't want to do something that goes against your own ideas, you can also agree in advance." Mei Zihan and Qin Ling have been curious about the struggle between the two for a long time, even though the two of them have no intention of confronting each other head-on.

But once the two of them serve as judges at the same time, the ratings and topicality of this show will definitely explode.For the sake of ratings and topics, are you afraid that the planner and director of the show will not accommodate the requests made by the two of them?

"With this program, you can also avoid going on various programs to promote the movie every day before the movie is released, can't you?" Qin Ling persuaded again, "Don't worry, after this program is over, the two of us will One can re-fire the brotherhood, and the theme can be not to know each other. It will definitely not damage your reputation afterwards."

I have such a good brother like you out of nowhere, and my manager doesn't even know about it.Mei Zihan complained silently in her heart, Qin Ling didn't come here to want him to talk about movies, it was clearly about this talent show.

"Don't you have any confidence in your movie at all? Maybe even if it hits the "Billion Heist" head-on, the box office may not lose." Mei Zihan couldn't help asking.It was entirely optional for him to come to Qin Ling, because he believed that even if he did hit it, "The Shit Shoveler" would be able to counterattack in terms of word of mouth and box office.

Hearing Mei Zihan say this, Qin Ling looked at Mei Zihan in surprise.

Where does this inexplicable self-confidence come from?

Because the law of the market is like this now, big stars, big directors, and big-produced movies, no matter how much they rush, they will go wherever they want, even if it is a recognized bad movie.What's more, the internal evaluation of this movie is said to be very good, and the possibility of a bad movie is really unlikely.

In contrast, his and Mei Zihan's movies are almost just the two of them alone.Oh, he's better, at least the woman in the opposite show has a lot of fans, and her topics and popularity are not low.But Mei Zihan was completely alone at the box office.

Even good movies get buried.

Qin Ling never fights unprepared battles, so naturally it is impossible to pin his hopes on the so-called counterattack. With so many movies on the market every year, how many of them can counterattack and become dark horses?

"I will agree to your proposal, because it is good for my film." Mei Zihan said seriously, "But even if the other party does not change the schedule, I believe my film will not lose."

He is different from Qin Ling. He put a lot of effort into "The Shit Shoveler", and everyone who has seen it agrees.He has full confidence in his movie, but as a manager, Liu Tianyi naturally hopes to make this movie have fewer opponents, so he will sit at the same dinner table with Qin Ling.

He and Qin Ling still have different ideas.

Mei Zihan himself had tasted the fruits of a counterattack, but Qin Ling hadn't.

It's hard to say whose path is better, because everyone's choice and development are unique.

"You are really confident." Although Qin Ling said this with a smile, there was a storm in his heart.

Why, why can Mei Zihan say it so confidently?

It was precisely because he could see that Mei Zihan was sincere, so Qin Ling felt even more strange.Don't look at many stars who say they have confidence in their movies before the movie is released, but they actually know what the movie looks like.

What's more, Mei Zihan's movie doesn't actually have too many advantages.Is Mei Zihan's confidence in it based on the content of this movie?But the screenwriter and director of this movie is basically just an unknown newcomer.
