LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 174 - Plastic nephew
Li Ping’s work efficiency is very fast, and it only took one day to investigate the three actresses named by Xu Zifan. Shi Xueman, the first-line child star, is trying his best to transform and wants to prove that his acting skills have burst. Her acting skills are really good, even after she opened her own studio, sometimes she couldn’t compete with actresses with a background in large companies, and most of the scripts she got were medium. She is serious in acting, does not play big names, and has no negative news. There is a blue-faced confidant in the circle who also has the same acting skills. Many people think they are particularly suitable.
The second-line actress Yang Jiaru, who is often compared to Xia Shuangshuang, has opened the corners of her eyes and rubbed her cheekbones. She also generously admitted that she had plastic surgery for better looks. Because some people criticized her for this matter and were unacceptable, she developed a bit slower than Xia Shuangshuang. She doesn’t play big cards, just looks good, and it is easy to gossip about cooperating with people in filming. In fact, she has never even had a first love and is dedicated to her career.
Yao Kexin is a third-line actress, very inconspicuous, but with the highest potential. She is striving for the role of maidservant in a palace battle drama. He is humble and motivated, works hard, and has good acting skills. He has just graduated from university, has never been in a relationship, and has no negative news. It is like a blank sheet of paper that has just entered the entertainment circle, and he has entered the third-line level based on acting skills.
After listening to Li Ping’s report, Xu Zifan always felt that something was wrong. He raised his eyebrows to look at Li Ping and asked, “What are you doing to check their relationship status?”
Li Ping was speechless, hesitated for a moment and decided to tell the truth, “Master, I thought you wanted to choose a new girlfriend.”
Xu Zifan said silently: “Is there such a choice for a girlfriend? It’s not a concubine. But…” He thought about the situation of Shi Xueman and her blue-faced confidant, and said with a smile, “It’s also very useful. You are very thorough. . Alright, you go and rest, I will find you if I have something to do.”
Xu Zifan just got along with Li Ping not long ago, and it was impossible to trust him completely, so he didn’t plan to leave everything to Li Ping. He anonymously hired two private detectives online, one to help him investigate all of Xia Shuangshuang’s activities in the entertainment industry, and the other to help him investigate Xia Shuangshuang’s private life and the subjects of her close relationship.
The money couldn’t help being spent. Xu Zifan thought for a while, and he would be scolded by others if he rushed back to the Xu family to compete for the company. The original owner would not want to be ruined if he wanted to get the company back, let alone see Xu Hao being sympathized by everyone. So for the time being, he does not plan to join the Xu family. It is necessary to reverse the public impression and let Xu’s directors and employees know that he is capable and at least have to do something.
Thinking of the original owner’s playful temperament, Xu Zifan decided to spend 30 million to build a live broadcast platform. He has done this twice before, and one person can quickly build the framework, and it is a complete final version without frequent testing and modification. It took him three days to fix this thing and saved most of the time in this regard. Of course, the remaining procedures for registering companies and the like went smoothly in his capacity, and he directly handed it over to Li Ping.
Li Ping felt very excited. Being an assistant to a young master is not the same as being an assistant to a president. He is promoted in disguise. Regardless of the success of the young master’s company, it is a great thing for him, and he is very active.
And Xu Zifan had already learned about the drama Xia Shuangshuang was going to shoot from the private detective, and also knew that Xu Hao had assigned Xia Shuangshuang the female number one role. This Gongdou drama “The Story of Xia Yi” is the first masterpiece of Xia Shuangshuang’s rise in the entertainment industry. “The Story of Xia Yi” tells the story of a naive and brilliant young girl in the palace. The kindness and happiness of entering the palace to the anger of being wronged and thrown into the cold palace in the mid-term, and then to the desperation and misery of miscarriage, and finally become cruel and cold-hearted, revenge everyone, including the emperor she once loved.
This drama is different from other dramas about love in Mary Su, but it shows the emperor’s cold feelings and the cruel struggle between the concubines. In the process, all kinds of palace fighting methods emerged in an endless stream. Several reversals and the shaping of characters’ good and evil made all the characters in the whole play very three-dimensional. There was no paper man, which attracted female audiences of all ages. It also attracted some male audiences because of the wonderful plot. When it was broadcast, seven TV stations broadcasted it together. Several starring actors were popular all over the country. Of course, the heroine was the most popular. Her personality was liked and admired, and her popularity was several times higher than that of other characters.
Many people even say that Xia Shuangshuang is Xia Yi, and their surnames are Xia. What a clever fate is this? Xia Shuangshuang must be as smart and strong as Xia Yi! People transferred their distress and respect for Xia Yi to Xia Shuangshuang. She naturally increased her popularity. With Xu Hao’s operation, she made three good movies in a row, and entered the film industry in one fell swoop, raising her status.
How could Xu Zifan miss such a favorable opportunity for Xia Shuangshuang? Now Xu Hao has helped Xia Shuangshuang get the role, but he was also prepared. He invested 50 million in the film crew and immediately became the first investor in “Xia Yi Biography”. Li Ping was busy registering the company, and Xu Zifan brought in Aunt Zhang’s son Liang Fei and asked Liang Fei to help him deal with things in the entertainment industry. Liang Feiren is very clever and very filial to Aunt Zhang. Aunt Zhang told him to do well for Xu Zifan. Xu Zifan feels relieved to use him.
Netizens were surprised when the news of Xu Zifan’s investment in “The Story of Xia Yi” spread. Xia Shuangshuang, the protagonist of “The Story of Xia Yi”, has already posted an official WeChat account. Did Xu Zifan increase his investment in “The Story of Xia Yi”? The original investment in “The Story of Xia Yi” was only 30 million yuan, but Xu Zifan invested 50 million yuan all at once. How much quality does this have to improve the show? Where is Xu Zifan holding Xia Shuangshuang? They reunited?
Not waiting for #徐子凡夏霜霜#’s hot search on the news, Xu Zifan posted a Weibo, [The first time I invested in film and television dramas, I hope to have a happy cooperation, and I hope that the actors I am optimistic about can perform supernormally. @《夏怡传》@王坤发[email protected]施雪曼@孟云成@姚可欣】
He asked Liang Fei to contact Shi Xueman and her blue-faced confidant Meng Yuncheng, and ask them to play “The Story of Xia Yi”, one as the second female queen and the other as the emperor. Contacted Yao Kexin and referred her from the role of the hostess maid to the third concubine. In this way, the three main roles were arranged at once. At first, the director disagreed, but after reading the names, he immediately let go. Xia Shuangshuang is a second-tier actress, and her acting skills are only good. He is very suffocated by being the heroine by default. Now that the female second, third female and male lead roles are so good, he is also grateful to Xu Zifan.
Xu Zifan’s fans saw that Xu Zifan’s Weibo was a bit clarifying, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief. They scolded Xia Shuangshuang so harshly. If Xu Zifan ate the grass, they would definitely be the most embarrassed. The passers-by were stunned. Xu Zifan didn’t get back with Xia Shuangshuang. What did @那三位星? Shi Xueman and Yao Kexin are both very beautiful, Meng Yuncheng…what is going on with Meng Yuncheng as a male artist? What is Xu Shao doing? 】
Not only are netizens puzzled, Xia Shuangshuang and Xu Hao also don’t understand Xu Zifan’s intentions. Xia Shuangshuang looked at the photos of Shi Xueman and Yao Kexin on the tablet. She also suspected that Xu Zifan had seen one of them, but why did she invest in her TV series and let them all play? She doesn’t know much about Yao Kexin, but when she thinks of Shi Xueman’s acting skills, she is a little upset. Can she suppress Shi Xueman? Is Xu Zifan taking revenge for that glass of ice water? As an investor, would he deliberately embarrass her or make her play less?
Xia Shuangshuang approached Xu Hao, hoping that Xu Hao would also invest and suppress Xu Zifan. How could Xu Hao do such a stupid thing? A TV drama now has a high investment of 80 million yuan, and the relationship between him and Xia Shuangshuang has not been made public. It is too cheap to do this kind of wealthy nephew, and it will only make people laugh at jokes. Xu Hao dealt with Xia Shuangshuang’s words, and asked someone to find out what Xu Zifan was doing recently. Why did he suddenly invest in film and television dramas?
Xu Zifan just has a plan, and he thinks it will succeed. He carefully analyzed the steps taken by Xia Shuangshuang to become famous. In his opinion, although Xia Shuangshuang became popular through “The Story of Xia Yi”, it was all because of the wonderful script of “The Story of Xia Yi”. Anyone with good acting skills can play it. . On the contrary, Xia Shuangshuang delayed the “Biography of Xia Yi” because she was only a second-tier actress when she played the heroine. She played the heroine, and none of the first-tier actresses participated in the role. The price of matching her was too low. Others in the second-tier are not very competitive with her. She still has Xu Hao. She changed the script several times to highlight the protagonist’s brilliance, so that “The Story of Xia Yi” did not achieve its brilliance.
Xu Zifan is the director himself, and he looked at these issues very accurately, and he arranged these three actors into the group very carefully. The queen and the emperor were childhood sweethearts. The promises made during their childhood, the queen has always kept in mind, love the emperor deeply, let the family contribute to him, help him manage the harem, and strictly require herself to be an excellent queen. Deep affection. After the emperor came to power, he was more and more suspicious, and more and more disgusted with the queen whose hands were stained with blood. After the queen killed a palace lady’s dragon fetus, their relationship became indifferent and drifted away.
After that, the emperor’s concubines more and more, and the queen’s victims became more and more secretive, until the heroine finally revealed that the emperor and the queen had a big fight, and the queen drank poison and died.
The emperor is a scumbag and the queen is a poisonous woman. That’s right, but the beauty of the script lies in its three-dimensional characters. Everyone has a good side and an evil side, and everyone has their own last resort and pain. Actors with ordinary acting skills can only perform superficially, with a fixed set of characters for the performance, but actors with explosive acting skills can enrich this character and let the audience see their inner pain.
Xu Zifan believes that Shi Xueman and Meng Yuncheng are actors with explosive acting skills. What’s even better is that they are CPs that many people like in reality, and they naturally feel in love with each other. As long as they act well, the two of them are childhood sweethearts who love each other and kill each other, and even love to hate each other. In short, they are the people who love each other the most. In this way, Xia Shuangshuang will feel like a junior no matter how she plays.
Yao Kexin’s imperial concubine is even more malleable. In the script, the imperial concubine is a member of the queen dowager’s relatives. She is charming and domineering. She fell in love with the emperor when she first opened her love. Don’t pay much attention to it. After the emperor and the empress were estranged, the empress dowager was stigmatized by her relatives, and she was very fond of the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine almost overshadowed the empress. The means to deal with the concubine were all obvious, and it was the one who targeted the heroine most.
But sometimes, some villains will be more popular than the protagonist, and the characters already exist, depending on whether the actors can act more attractively. Xu Zifan saw Yao Kexin’s talent and spirituality. Her acting skills were polished by the director, and she was definitely better than Shi Xueman, enough to crush Xia Shuangshuang. Such an imperial concubine performed by Yao Kexin would be domineering but not objectionable, arrogant but distressing, love the emperor but never get the emperor’s heart.
The queen has the love of the emperor once, and the heroine has the love of the emperor later. Whether they are lucky or not, the most favored concubine has not even got a star. How can a person who is pure and true in his bones, consistent in appearance, straight-tempered, proud, but the most unhappy, not distressing? Compared with her, what is left of the heroine’s light?
Xu Zifan’s vision is very poisonous. He believes that the actors he chooses can definitely achieve the effect he wants, and he will never let Xia Shuangshuang change the script. This time, the “Biography of Xia Yi” will be more brilliant, but Xia Shuangshuang will not necessarily.
