Superior Skills [Entertainment Circle]

Xiao Zhaolin's sixth year in the industry has finally passed amid such enthusiasm.

Entering the seventh year, besides Xiao Zhaolin, the one who has changed the most is the manager An An who bears the brunt of the rush. Since the popularity of his own artists has risen, there are always investors who submit scripts for various TV dramas and movies, online variety shows, and men's clothing brands. Endorsements and other kinds of cooperation even came to the door every three days, and An An was pushed out by An An four or two times. The good ones stayed, and the bad ones goodbye.

Of course, she is still very measured in taking on projects. After all, the main tasks of this year have to fall on the upcoming "Invisible" and "The Cry of the Blue Sea", which will be launched in the middle of the year. When these two works are finished, Xiao Zhaolin will naturally It's stable.

At the beginning of March, because the release of "Invisible" was approaching, Xiao Zhaolin began to conduct roadshows with the crew in many cities across the country. The temperature in early spring was still a bit low. After two or three weeks of trapeze, Xiao Zhaolin inevitably caught a cold, but there was no way , March 3 coincided with the premiere of "Invisible", and he couldn't be absent as the protagonist.

On the night of the premiere, Xiao Zhaolin walked into the premiere scene with other crew members under flashing lights everywhere. The weather was very cool but the atmosphere inside was warm.

"Mr. Xiao, the premiere is about to start, how are you feeling now?"

Xiao Zhaolin looked at the row after row of microphones in front of him. He was familiar with every logo on it, and all of them were heavyweight media. He smiled calmly and replied, "I'm very nervous, so nervous that my hands feel cold."

A clever reporter at the front heard the words and found out a hand warmer out of nowhere and handed it over: "Hey, I have a hand warmer here. Teacher Xiao warms it up."

Xiao Zhaolin took it over with great vigor, a little dumbfounded: "Thank you, it's very warm, but if I dare to go in with a warm handbag, Teacher Bai will probably beat me out later."

Bai Jianli glanced at him from the side, and said flatly: "No, I can also bring you the thermos bottle that has just been soaked with goji berries, but tomorrow there will probably be a scene where you 'enter the ranks of middle-aged greasy men'." It's on the news."

Xiao Zhaolin was overwhelmed by Teacher Bai's words and waved his hands again and again, and hurriedly returned the handbag to the reporter in front of him. The reporter smiled and took the opportunity to ask: "Mr. Xiao, before the premiere, if you want to introduce us in one sentence What would you say about "Stealth"?"

Xiao Zhaolin was stunned for a moment, and didn't know what to think of, and finally showed a perfect smile in the direction of the reporter: "Don't fall in love with me after reading it."

He waved his hand generously as he spoke, followed Bai Jianli's footsteps and walked in under the shining light, leaving the roar of laughter and the sound of shutters behind him.

He Chuansheng also followed beside Bai Jianli. The gray-haired fake old man glanced sideways at Xiao Zhaolin and whistled, "Okay, you still said don't fall in love with me. Wait until the news headlines come out."

Xiao Zhaolin replied embarrassingly: "Someone taught me that, it's rare to have a thick skin."

"Is there someone?" He Chuansheng raised his eyebrows, quite curious about the person behind the scenes, but Xiao Zhaolin didn't seem to have any plans to talk about it, just smiled inscrutablely.

Everyone walked all the way to the seats, and reserved seats for them in the first two rows, and a circle next to them was reserved for investors and important guests. At this time, the seats were not full, so Xiao Zhaolin found his own seat and sat down. After straightening the front of the suit, he secretly took a breath to calm down the nervousness in his heart.

The hall for this premiere is very large, the walls on both sides are covered with posters of "Stealth", the lighting of the venue is ready, the host responsible for the interaction is already waiting on the sidelines, and many guests and media friends have also started to file into the venue , everything looks exciting.

If there is any regret, it is probably that the person was not able to come to the scene.

Xiao Zhaolin smiled decently, and said hello to the people around him. Thinking that Liang Ye couldn't come because of work, he still couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

However, Liang Ye vowed that after the official release, he would be guaranteed ten shows in a row, and he would accompany him to watch each show in person, so Xiao Zhaolin also recognized it.

The lights at the scene gradually dimmed, Xiao Zhaolin withdrew his thoughts and collected himself, his eyes fell on the big screen in front of him.It was dark all around, and there seemed to be a few staff members bending over and walking around, but everyone else was staring with bated breath, watching the last ten-second countdown on the screen.

When the last number 1 flashed on the screen, Xiao Zhaolin felt his left hand being held by something warm, and he was startled, only to find that there was someone sitting in the empty seat on the left hand side. , he took a closer look at the slightly dim light of the screen, and saw a pair of familiar smiling eyes.

A guy who promised not to come.

"you……"

Xiao Zhaolin didn't know what to say for a moment, Liang Ye's breath was close at hand, and gradually the warmth from the palm of his hand transferred to his hands, slowly dispelling the coldness between his fingers.

This person reverted to his old ways, yet another person came to the scene but lied to him that he couldn't come. It was really abominable. Now that everyone was watching a movie quietly, Xiao Zhaolin couldn't vent his anger and could only stare blankly.

"Hush, let's watch a movie first." Liang Ye put Xiao Zhaolin's hand in his pocket with a smile, then motioned him to stretch out his other hand, and handed an equally warm object to his palm.

"?" Xiao Zhaolin held it inexplicably, and then he heard Liang Ye say in his ear, "I know you've had a hard time with a cold, didn't you just say that your hand was cold, the hand in my pocket is in charge of warming, the other As long as you hold this hand warmer carefully, how about I am considerate?"

Xiao Zhaolin couldn't stop laughing angrily, and was very convinced.

However, Liang Ye's method was indeed useful. After a while, even Xiao Zhaolin had to admit that his hands were indeed not cold, and then his heart seemed to be warmed up.

He turned his eyes back to the big screen, the plot of the movie was advancing little by little, and the guy who suddenly appeared beside him filled his only regret tonight.

At the end of the film, Yan Weimin, a policeman, stands in the rain with many scars. The world is empty, and the rain gradually washes away the blood on his face. The camera gives a close-up of his eyes, and his eyes are hard to hide. , but he was extremely firm, there seemed to be a ray of hope in his eyes, the dark pupils were like a whirlpool, attracting the hearts and souls of everyone present, and then everything came to an abrupt end.

When the ending song played, Xiao Zhaolin heard Liang Ye smiling lightly beside him, his deep voice was not covered by the music.

"Ms. Xiao," he said, speaking slowly, "I'm in love with you."

Xiao Zhaolin half-closed his eyes to look at him, and after a while he smiled and asked hoarsely, "Did you just fall in love now?"

"No," Liang Ye clasped the hand in his pocket tightly, "I have fallen in love with you a long time ago."

The list of main creators in black and white characters slowly appeared on the big screen, and there was thunderous applause. At this time, the lights have not yet been turned on, and everyone has not fully recovered from the movie just now, and no one has noticed this position in the front row , two pairs of eyes are staring at each other closely.

……

Immediately after the premiere, film reviews were released that night. Whether it’s true or false, the overall reputation is good, but this is just the first step of "Invisible", and the real battlefield will be in the official theaters later. public screening.

On Friday, March 3th, "Invisible" was released across the board. Everyone related to the movie was raptly staring at the updated real-time box office data. It has not been 26 hours, but the real-time box office shows that the national box office has exceeded 24 million yuan at this time. If the performance is stable on the next Saturday and Sunday, the box office is expected to exceed 1 million yuan in the first weekend.

But two days later, people discovered that the actual situation was even more exciting than everyone expected. In the 72 hours since its release, the box office has exceeded [-] million. According to the first starring movie, it is indeed a dark horse. I believe it will not be a big problem to get more than one billion before the movie is released.

In addition to frequent success at the box office, the word-of-mouth of "Invisible" also remains high. Film critics generally praise Xiao Zhaolin's role as the Triangle. Every image is impressive in terms of appearance and personality. After each character, more clues will be found to dig out the real person behind the three.

In the third week of the release of "Invisible", the Asian Star Awards, which had been raging at the end of last year, finally announced the first nomination list. The best film column "Invisible" was impressively listed. As well as Best Actor, Best Director, etc., "Stealth" won a total of eight nominations.

The media reports on this are: the momentum is huge and menacing.

It was the first time he starred in a movie and he was shortlisted for Best Actor. Xiao Zhaolin said that he was not excited and nervous, it was a lie, especially that most of the names in the same shortlist were familiar, and several of them were from China or other Asian countries. well-known actors.

He looked at his name juxtaposed with those familiar big names, and there was always an unreal feeling.

"Film critics have rated you well, and it's very pleasing to play the role of a triangle. People from the Film Federation may vote for you based on this difficulty. This time, many people are optimistic about you." An An couldn't hide her nervousness, but she still Try to show a calm side.

But what she didn't mention is that Xiao Zhaolin has a good chance of winning the prize by challenging three characters at once, but the other big names shortlisted are not easy-going, and one of them's work was also very discussed last year. Gao himself is a frequent shortlist for many awards, but he has not been able to get the Best Actor as he wished.

One is a blockbuster with three roles when he first appeared on the big screen, and the other is a quasi-actor who has worked hard for many years, step by step, and finally blossomed.

In the end, there are different opinions on how to choose the 500 members of the Film Federation.

The heated discussion lasted for a long time. In the long-awaited wait, the first Halo Awards ceremony finally arrived.
