There are immortals at home [entertainment circle]

Inside the frosted glass, the shower was buzzing.

Outside the bathroom, the Golden Flower Awards ceremony was being broadcast live on TV.

The Golden Flower Award is the most valuable film award in China, and the Golden Flower Award ceremony is also the most watched film award ceremony in China. This ceremony has awarded awards to many filmmakers over the years, and it has affirmed their contributions to the film industry. contribute.

"Next, I invite the award presenters to come on stage and announce to us the Best Actor of this year's Golden Flower Awards..."

The sound of the water stopped, Zhuo Fan put on his bathrobe and opened the bathroom door, he put a white towel on his head, walked out while rubbing his wet hair casually, then sat on the sofa in front of the TV, took Picked up a novel on the coffee table.

Water droplets slowly slid down his face, outlining his handsome and three-dimensional facial features. His eyes were as deep as obsidian, as if he could easily capture the soul of others.

If it was the past, Zhuo Fan should have been bathed in the spotlight of the Golden Flower Awards at this time, instead of sitting at home watching the live broadcast of the Golden Flower Awards like now.

"The winner of this year's Golden Flower Award for Best Actor is - Pei Junyu, from the movie "The Devil," the award presenter announced with a smile on his face, and the audience burst into warm applause, "Congratulations to Junyu for winning this year's Golden Flower Award." Best Actor Award!"

The camera then fell on an elegant and handsome face.

Zhuo Fan raised his eyes and glanced at the TV screen. As he expected, this year's Golden Flower Award Best Actor is indeed Pei Junyu.

Although Zhuo Fan used to be an important figure in the film industry, he was "once" after all.

The current Zhuo Fan is just an outdated actor.

Zhuo Fan made his debut at the age of 18. His first acting role was as the leading actor in a low-budget literary film.

When he first debuted, he was unknown, not from a major, and had no acting experience before, but he was young and handsome to an amazing degree, so relying on this face, he took that same unknown movie to various places. Popular discussion area of ​​the big forum.

But amazing is amazing, no one expects him to have any acting skills, thinking that after his debut with this movie, he will shoot idol dramas, accept commercials, show off his smile on the screen, and become a typical vase star.

After the movie was released, everyone who just wanted to see the face was completely convinced. No one thought that Zhuo Fan's acting skills could be so natural, exquisite and natural. In addition, the movie itself was designed very well regardless of the plot, scenes, and shots. Ingenious, the director's talent and hard work can be seen everywhere, and soon all the major film review websites gave this film incredible high marks, and all well-known film critics gave high praise to this film...

This small-budget literary film that didn't have much money to promote it became a dark horse at the box office through word of mouth, and finally won a grand slam at major film award ceremonies.

Director Lu Jingxi became famous because of this, and later got the opportunity to go abroad to develop into an internationally renowned director, and Zhuo Fan also became famous in one fell swoop, and in the subsequent movies he performed again and again to give people new surprises and won a Another actor award, but in just two or three years, he has become an extremely popular emperor superstar.

How popular was he then?

Major brands sought him out one after another as their spokesperson, giant screens in commercial buildings in the city center played his advertisements in turn, his news soared to the headlines of major websites as soon as it came out, and the movies he starred in hit the forefront of the box office as soon as they were released.

Few men, women, young and old have never seen his movies, and few don’t know his name. When they mention him, they always say "that actor with good acting skills", "that handsome actor", "he often does charity "And so on, his image is perfect and there are no scandals.

But being too perfect is easy to criticize, because he has no scandal with any actress, so some people speculate that he is gay, but in fact he has no reminiscent rumors with other male stars, so some people speculate that he is different from Ordinary people's hobbies, some people even speculate that he simply "can't"...

In the end, no evidence was found for these bottom-line associations, and even the reporters who deliberately squatted to find some clues returned in vain.

No one has ever been able to find the slightest flaw in Zhuo Fan's body.

Zhuo Fan went on so smoothly. He did things that many people could not do, and achieved achievements that many people could not even imagine. At first, everyone thought that he would continue to be popular like this until a year ago. , the 27-year-old Zhuo Fan starred in the movie "Dark War Is Hard to Prevent"——

This is a large-scale production movie with two male protagonists created by a famous director, famous actors, and a top-level lineup. One of the protagonists is Zhuo Fan, and the other protagonist is the newcomer Pei Junyu.

Although Pei Junyu was a newcomer at the time, he had excellent acting talent and graduated with excellent grades from a top film school, so everyone originally thought that this movie was just for Zhuo Fan, a senior, to lead the younger generation. Take Pei Junyu, the star of tomorrow.

The filming of the film went very smoothly, but after the filming ended, there were rumors of Zhuo Fan bullying the newcomers.

The rumored victim, Pei Junyu, did not speak out, but the staff who claimed to be at the scene described it vividly. Then Zhuo Fan was mobbed and attacked. Many celebrities came out to speak out and accused Zhuo Fan. Going forward and fermenting to the back, even Zhuo Fan's agent stood up to prove Zhuo Fan's "evil deeds".

This luxuriously produced movie has thus become a luxuriously produced bureau, a bureau designed to pull Zhuo Fan into the abyss.

Zhuo Fan's "crime" was thus confirmed, and his simple clarification on Weibo was also interpreted as "arrogant", followed by labels such as "playing big names", "grabbing the show", "scheming", "jealous of newcomers" and so on. All of them were posted in a short while, the scandal was raging, Zhuo Fan's reputation plummeted, and related brands replaced their spokespersons one after another, and some even demanded that he compensate the huge liquidated damages for brand damage caused by the scandal.

On the other hand, the movie's box office and awards ceremony were hardly affected. This movie not only became the box office champion of the year, but also won awards from major award ceremonies, including the Best Actor Award at the Golden Flower Awards.

However, Zhuo Fan, who was originally able to compete for the Golden Flower Award Best Actor, was directly removed from the candidate list because of the scandal, and Pei Junyu finally stood on the podium.

This movie starring Zhuo Fan and Pei Junyu is the first movie in which Pei Junyu won the best actor, and it is also the last movie before Zhuo Fan was banned.

After Zhuo Fan was banned, he was silent for a whole year. No one dared to ask him to make movies or ask him to shoot commercials. When he was considering whether to accept Lu Jingxi’s invitation to develop abroad, Star King Entertainment extended an olive branch to him. He was invited to play the role in the movie "A Thousand Machines".

However, this character is not a righteous protagonist, but a deranged little villain with an extremely miserable end.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Xinghuang Entertainment wants to use Zhuo Fan to hype, and Xinghuang has done a lot of this kind of thing before.

Star King Entertainment is a new star in the domestic TV circle, and it has a unique role in the production of idol dramas. It targets young consumers and has produced many popular idol dramas over the years, and has even made many youth idols popular. In order to pursue efficiency, in addition to normal packaging and publicity, it is inevitable to hype——

If there is no splash, it will be smeared, and after smearing, it will be washed white, and it will be fried again and again. A small transparent without splash can also become a big star, and Star King Entertainment has used this method extremely skillfully in the TV industry.

Now Star King Entertainment has even greater ambitions, because not long ago, the chairman of Huanjie Pictures was arrested in connection with the case. Huanjie Pictures, as a giant in the film industry, has produced many years including "Dark War" The downfall of Huanjie this time caused a big shock in the movie industry, and Star King Entertainment, which was only active in the TV industry, saw the right time and wanted to enter the movie industry at this time. The hype technique is brought over.

So Zhuo Fan was targeted.

Everyone thought that Zhuo Fan would be more cautious in accepting jobs after going through the scandal a year ago, but what people didn't expect was that Zhuo Fan agreed easily.

So from the start of the movie, Zhuo Fan has often been scolded on hot searches with the name of the movie——

Being scolded by Pei Junyu's fans, scolded by marketing accounts, scolded by film critics, scolded by trolls... Although he hasn't logged in to Weibo for a long time, the people in the comments are still updating the most popular swear words every day.

After a year of silence, Zhuo Fan became black and red again.

But this kind of "black and red" is not something everyone can bear. People in the same crew sometimes feel a little bit unbearable when they see him being scolded so badly, including the young director of "A Thousand Machines" Ren Hang.

Ren Hang is the producer and director of "A Thousand Machines". He has his own film studio. Although he has such a title, he is a complete newcomer. Even the film studio has not been established for a long time. If Star King Entertainment didn't think it was too risky to enter the film industry and wanted to save costs, so it probably wouldn't approach him.

Regarding why Zhuo Fan accepted this movie, Ren Hang asked him in a chat before.

"Because the script is very good." Zhuo Fan answered this way, of course this is also Zhuo Fan's real thought.

For Zhuo Fan, media reports and other people's opinions don't matter. If there is a scene he wants to shoot, he can shoot it, and if he doesn't, he can rest. Even after going through such a storm, he has always lived without any burden.

After accepting the invitation from Star King Entertainment, Zhuo Fan even bought the novel "A Thousand Machines" to read. Of course, his reason was to study the characters better.

And today, he finally finished reading the ending of the novel.

Zhuo Fan closed the novel and was about to put it back, when suddenly his hand sank, a dazzling glare lit up from the novel, and captured his entire field of vision in a blink of an eye... The novel dropped his hand and fell to the ground, Zhuo Fan reluctantly opened it After squinting his eyes because of the strong light, he found a light figure floating in front of him——

Dressed in white clothes, holding a delicate red jade lyre in her arms, light golden eyelashes hanging down her beautiful face, her lips are as clear as water, and her eyes are closed, as if she is peacefully asleep. The light golden long hair spread out like a star river.

Over the years, Zhuo Fan has read countless people in the movie circle, whether it is natural or artificial, he has seen many handsome men and beautiful women, but he has to admit that the person in front of him is really good-looking. It is not exaggerated at all to use the words "ice muscle and jade bone" and "fairy appearance and beauty".

However, isn't this appearance, this outfit, and this violin too familiar?

Zhuo Fan's eyes slowly moved down to the novel on the ground, and suddenly he remembered that the person in front of him was exactly the same as the villain Le Luo in "A Thousand Machines".
