Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 708: The Struggle of the Heshang Sect
After touring the country, this year's Silver Eagle Awards ceremony returned to the capital.

After arriving in the capital, Zhou Hao first met a group of old friends.

Liu Wei, Guo Chen, Yang Weihong, Lin Xina, Su Man, etc. As the main creators of "The Pretender", they were also invited to attend this award ceremony.

These old friends obviously knew Zhou Hao's situation, and they took him out for a walk to relax.

Even Yang Weihong got rid of her habit of not wanting to join in the fun, and took the initiative to set up a table in her own yard, inviting everyone to eat and drink to a great extent.

After having a good meal and a few drinks, everyone finally started to talk about the main topic.

"How many prizes do you think we can win this time?" Liu Wei asked while pinching peanuts.

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously looked at Su Man.

After all, everyone knows the power of this Beijing princess.

"Don't look at me. I don't know either." Su Man spread her hands. "The old man has been at odds with me recently. I can't ask him for information. Asking others is too laborious."

"You and Mr. Tang are having a quarrel?" Yang Weihong was a little surprised. "What do you mean?"

Su Man pursed her lips towards Zhou Hao and said, "Well, it's all because of him."

Swish, several gazes converged on Zhou Hao's face, with a hint of gossip in them.

Except for Lin Xina, everyone here is an adult. Who hasn't experienced that?

They could more or less guess Su Man's vague little thoughts.

If Xu Lingyue hadn't been there first and taken the title, this person might have almost become the prince consort of the Beijing circle!

Zhou Hao, who was eating melon seeds, was confused. "What does this have to do with me?"

"It's none of your business." Su Man, who had drunk some wine, had a flushed face. She looked like a red peach and spoke in a coquettish tone.

"Before, an old director handed me a script. The old man thought the script was good and wanted me to take it, but I didn't take it. I'm waiting for your new play."

These words made everyone look at each other in bewilderment.

Is this something we can listen to?

Is this not even pretending?
Only Lin Xina's expression was a little weird, a little shocked, a little annoyed, and a little depressed.

This guy...isn't he too popular?

So what the uncle said wasn't a lie, right?

"Even if Xu Lingyue wasn't here, you wouldn't have a chance. There are so many people who are interested in him, and each one of them is better than you!"

Zhou Hao was also made to feel a little embarrassed, luckily he didn't bring Xu Lingyue with him this time.

Otherwise, that jealous guy will definitely explode again.

At the critical moment, it was Liu Wei who came to the rescue, "Which senior is looking for you?"

"Zhu Lijun." Su Man replied with a pout.

Hearing this name, everyone looked somewhat uncomfortable.

This female director's reputation in the industry is basically mixed.

Just looking at his resume, it can be said that he has a brilliant record - the total number of trophies he has won at home and abroad ranks among the top five in the entire Chinese-language film industry.

In terms of the quality of her works, her directorial attainments are fully worthy of the trophies she has won. She is a truly talented director.

But the reason why her reputation is mixed is because of her choice of subject matter - she is a typical "He Shang School" director, very persistent in "digging" those negative themes at the bottom of society, in order to guide the audience to "think" about the price of development. Twenty years ago, the He Shang School was very popular, and public intellectuals and demons were rampant all over the Internet. Movies with this theme are naturally born with soil for survival.

Although the movies in theaters have not been very good, there is no problem selling the various copyrights.

Coupled with the various foreign trophies that continued to gild her, her status in the industry also soared.

Unfortunately, with the growing strength of China, the new generation of Chinese people have begun to look at the world with equal eyes or even look down upon it, and the developed Internet media has also allowed everyone to understand more about the true face of the world.

So everyone discovered that, compared to the outside world, our lives are not that miserable?
As a result, these literary and artistic works of the Heshang School gradually began to lose market space.

But these directors never face up to the problem. If their works are not popular, then it can only be a market problem, a problem of the audience... Anyway, it is not their own problem.

"What is she going to shoot this time?" Liu Wei asked again.

After all, even Old Tang thinks it's good, so there must be some truth to it.

"It's a rural-themed film, and the protagonist is a woman who was trafficked into the mountains." Su Man glanced at Zhou Hao subconsciously, "The theme of the film is that she awakens after being imprisoned for thirty years, and escapes from the mountains to start a new life..."

When saying this, Su Man deliberately emphasized the word "awakening".

We all come from acting backgrounds, so we all know what the emphasis in the lines represents.

The awakening here is definitely not a serious awakening.

Once this movie is made, it will definitely cause chaos and foul weather.

"This shouldn't be the case. Why would Mr. Tang let you take on this kind of film?" Yang Weihong expressed her confusion.

Su Man sighed: "The old man's thoughts are generally quite open-minded, but in some aspects... after all, people can't completely break free from the constraints of the times."

I understand. I understand everything.

After all, Old Tang came from that chaotic era, so the base color is still red, but it is still stained with a little bit of dirt.

"You were right to refuse." Yang Weihong said directly, "You can't ruin the popularity and reputation you have worked so hard to build up. If you accept this script, you will most likely be scolded."

Zhou Hao scratched his head. "So after all this talk, I am just a shield, right?"

"Not really." Su Man rolled her eyes at him coquettishly, "I'm really waiting for your new book... When will you give me a definite answer?"

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped chatting and turned their eyes towards him.

Su Man is not the only one waiting for his new script.

After "Crazy Stone" won the May Day championship, the undefeated halo on Zhou Hao's head became even brighter.

Everyone knows that whoever plays his work will become famous!
Although the pay is a bit low, it’s not the key.

As long as you have fame and status, are you worried about not making money?

"Well, I'm busy lately." Zhou Hao said awkwardly, "Wait a little longer, wait until I finish the things at hand, and then I'll start the next plan."

"Then hurry up." This time it was Lin Xina's turn to be unable to hold back, "If you don't give me the script, I'm going to be dragged into acting in those messy saccharine dramas!"

Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene laughed out loud.

The little girl is still interesting.

After laughing, Guo Chen said cheerfully: "Last year's Silver Eagle Award only gave you a consolation screenwriter award. This year's gala... you may very well be the biggest winner!"
