"Fairy Tale" was really popular!
After half a week of screening, the mainstream media couldn't ignore its influence. They began to report on this video that was labeled as "the first micro film." Because of the mainstream media's coverage, "Fairy Tale" had more than ten million views after five days of screening.
In this era, this number still had a very significant meaning.
Of course, a micro film like "Fairy Tale" wasn't about money. It couldn't be loved by everyone. There would be praise, but there would also be slander. In the mainstream media's reports, there were many doubts, attacks, and denials.
"The graphics are rough, the actors' acting skills are average, and the plot is created to make people cry. How did 'Fairy Tale' become popular? Is it because of a song by Mu Ziang? "
"'Fairy Tale' lacks the qualities of a good film, whether it's in terms of ideology or artistry."
For example, "Monthly Movie" magazine bluntly stated that "Fairy Tale" wasn't a movie at all. It was just a music video that used the gimmick of a movie.
There was even a former art film director who was now a professional film critic and producer, Lu Chun, who criticized the competition organized by Microbroadcasting in his column. "A ten-minute micro film can't possibly be made into a movie. It's at most a skit. Please don't use it as a movie!"
However, "Fairy Tale" became more and more popular under the mainstream media's doubts. Many people registered Microbroadcasting accounts just to watch the video. After watching it, even if they didn't praise it, they tried their best to defend "Fairy Tale".
For the first time, there was a confrontation between the mainstream media and online public opinion. What was surprising was that the mainstream media, which was originally considered a regular army, could not shake the motley crew. On the contrary, the momentum of online public opinion was getting stronger and stronger. The reputation of "Fairy Tale" was gradually established by word of mouth.
The micro film competition organized by Weibo also caught the attention of many young people who were interested in making movies. Putting aside those small fries for the time being, some young directors and actors who were full of talent but had nowhere to display their talents at schools such as Beijing Film Academy, Jiangcheng Media University, Shanghai Drama Academy, and so on, who had directing and performing majors, were eager to make a move.
The highest prize was one million yuan!
Moreover, it was just a micro film. This wasn't a high requirement!
Therefore, many people called their friends and gathered together to write the script. Since they wanted to win the championship, they had to do their best!
Of course, although the mainstream media was scolding, they could not represent the opinions of the entertainment industry. There were many people with foresight in the entertainment companies, agencies, and even record companies. They abandoned their prejudices and saw the excellence of 'Fairy Tale'.
Qin Wen, who had already signed with an agency, could still get a little peace. However, Guo Ziyi, the male lead, and the director, Du Yuanlei, were harassed by a lot of talent scouts and agents who came out of nowhere. When they found out that they had not signed with an agency, they were like wild dogs chasing after them.
"It's too scary. They've all come to my dormitory, so I can only come to the coffee shop to avoid the limelight!"
On Saturday, Guo Ziyi stayed in the café to chat with Ding Xiang and Yang Huan. Of course, he was also forced by Ding Xiang to serve coffee to the customers. It just so happened that Lin Mu 'an had gone to a competition today, and the coffee shop was short of manpower. Usually, Lin Mu' an, the pianist, would take on the role of a waiter.
"Why didn't you agree to sign the contract? It's such a good opportunity! "Yang Huan said with a smile.
"I don't want to sign with an agency and be cheated!" Guo Ziyi was a little smart. He smiled and said, "Didn't Brother Yang tell me about Thousand Miles Chuanshu's experience last time? Let me tell you, Rong Huada's agency also approached me. I didn't know how disgusting they were at that time … "
Ding Xiang said with concern, "Fortunately, you didn't sign the contract at that time!"
"Hehe, the reason I didn't agree at that time was that they wanted me to be a singer. But I don't like being a singer! I like acting in movies. Let me tell you, actors have to keep a low profile. They can't appear in the media every day, so that the audience can maintain a sense of freshness when they see you on the screen. " Guo Ziyi couldn't stop talking. "Otherwise, when everyone accepts your usual character, they will think that your role in the movie is very fake!"
Yang Huan patted Guo Ziyi's shoulder casually and said with a smile, "That's right. Take you for example. I know that you're very funny, but sister Ding Xiang and I both thought that your role as Ah Guang was very fake. You're not the kind of quiet person who doesn't speak a word. If you didn't speak, you would have been suffocated to death! "
"Hehe!" Guo Ziyi smiled but didn't say anything.
Ding Xiang was still thinking about the previous topic. She pulled Yang Huan's hand and said, "Huanhuan, you're going to be an actress in the future. You must be careful. Don't be cheated by others! If a girl is cheated, the consequences will be more serious. "
Yang Huan's right hand formed a claw, palm facing up, and then clenched tightly into a fist. She waved it proudly and said to Ding Xiang, "sister Ding Xiang, don't worry. I'm not afraid. If anyone dares to cheat me, I'll beat him up with one punch!"
"Come on, don't be so naive. In today's society, it's not an era where you can solve problems with your fists! Besides, no matter how big your fists are, if someone really wants to trick you, they can do whatever they want after drugging you. It's better to be careful. " Guo Ziyi had heard a lot of such stories in the Film and Television Base in Beijing. Although it was inconvenient for him to talk about it in detail, he still told Yang Huan directly.
Yang Huan was stunned. She was inexperienced and didn't expect it to be so complicated.
Hearing this, Ding Xiang looked at Yang Huan worriedly and said, "Huanhuan, I think Xiao Guo is right. Don't let your guard down."
"But sister Huan, you don't have to worry too much!" Guo Ziyi smiled and said, "Don't you have your brother and sister-in-law? Why don't you just sign with some unknown agency? Just sign with your brother and sister-in-law's studio. With them watching over you, you don't have to worry about those dirty things. "
Yang Huan asked in confusion, "My brother and sister-in-law's studio? Isn't that their own studio? How can they sign with others? Besides, don't they specialize in singers? "
Guo Ziyi rolled his eyes and said, "The nature of a studio is actually an agency. It's just a small one. Who says that individual studios can't sign with other stars? There are a lot of similar situations in the entertainment industry. However, only the studios of famous people are willing to work with them. Moreover, they won't sign with other stars casually. They also need to make money. "
"As for the crossover issue, you don't have to worry about it. The micro movie 'Fairy Tale' is being released under the studio's name." Guo Ziyi smiled and said, "Sister Murphy is indeed an independent artist, but Brother Yang is different. He doesn't only know how to write songs. He can also write scripts. Didn't he write a script for Director Du? I still want to wait for Director Du to finish studying the script and see if I can get a role. "
Ding Xiang suddenly interrupted Yang Huan when she was deep in thought. She said to Guo Ziyi, "Why don't you consider signing with Brother Yang's studio? He won't trick you. "
That's right! Guo Ziyi hadn't thought about it yet. He was also deep in thought.
At this moment, Yang Yi came back from planting flowers with Xi Xi and Murphy. "Guo Ziyi, it's already noon and you still don't want to go back to the dormitory. Don't tell me you want to sneak into the girl's rented apartment?"
