Chapter 509: friendship

After working together, Jiang Se and Lin Xiwen seldom contacted each other, but during the holidays, she would send messages and blessings, and rarely met in private. ·
Everyone is very busy. Lin Xiwen is running the company while making movies. Not to mention Jiang Se, who has to take care of both his studies and work, naturally gradually alienates.
After the propaganda period, when meeting Lin Xiwen in the workplace occasionally attending the event, he would say hello at most. Jiang Se did not expect Lin Xiwen to call himself at this moment.
Although she was confused in her heart, she still answered the phone in Mo Anqi's hand:
"Director Lin, this is Jiang Se."
"Se Se, I haven't congratulated you on the big sales, and the box office broke the record." Lin Xiwen called out her identity when she heard Jiang Se answered the phone, and her voice was gentle, without squeezing the air, a smile appeared in her voice:
"It's also shortlisted for the'Best Actress in a Leading Actress' at the'French Film Festival.'
"Thank you, Director Lin, for the compliment." Jiang Se laughed and then asked:
"You call me, what's the matter?"
Lin Xiwen worked with her for a period of time. Knowing her character, she didn't care about her outspoken manner, but he was relieved:
"There is really something, I want to discuss it with you, do you have time recently?" He said that, in fact, he was worried about whether Jiang Se would agree to meet with him.
After all, today is different from the past. Jiang Se’s status is different from when he was filming. Later, with the role of'Zhang Yuqin', Jiang Se has gained a firm foothold and worked with Liu Ye to endorse Federer’s watch. In the ranks of China's top actresses, the itinerary should be very full.
If I want to meet with her temporarily, she may not agree to it.
Jiang Se picked up his schedule and took a look, "There should be."
When Lin Xiwen heard this, the heart that had mentioned her throat was relieved, and said happily:
"Then tomorrow afternoon, we will meet again."
It was agreed that three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, after meeting in a coffee shop near Century Galaxy, Jiang Se hung up the phone.
Mo Anqi was a little surprised:
"Why did Lin Xiwen suddenly call you to meet?"
Xia Chaoqun packed up the information on the desktop and thought about it:
"I guess I want to find you to make a movie." She looked at Jiang Se, "Lin Xiwen's new movie was released a few days ago. I think you still have some impression of this movie."
Xia Chaoqun bent his mouth:
"." When she spoke, Mo Anqi had already laughed, and several staff members couldn't help laughing:
"It is said that in addition to film critics, even the audience scolded this movie. Feng did not even post directly on his social network, saying that the soul of Lin Xiwen who could be filmed was dead, and it would produce a farce. "
Jiang Se has been very busy recently, and he has not paid much attention to the new movie, but she has an impression on this one.
When Gu Jiaer introduced her to Lin Xiwen's Shangjia company, the one choice Lin Xiwen once gave her happened to be this movie.
But then Jiang Se didn’t take a fancy to this film which Lin Xiwen said could give her the position of the heroine, and was also well paid for the newcomers. Instead, he fancyed Hou Xiling’s screenwriter, which gradually became popular by virtue of it, and was later at the China Film Festival. With the role of "Cardamom", he won the first trophy in his life. ·
She did not expect that what she gave up at the time would be delayed for several years before it was released this year.
"This movie is not only bad in word-of-mouth, but it is also not conspicuous at the box office. Lin Xiwen obviously encountered Waterloo once, and the usual publicity methods did not show its due advantages."
Lin Xiwen didn't choose a good time, and the release time was delayed again and again. It was originally expected to be released in March this year, but there are two good movies in March this year.
A film directed by Ning Zhanping and starring Tao Cen, and another film by Jiang Se and owner Liu. Not only did the two films have an eye-catching lineup, they also participated in the French Film Festival and even won two awards in a row. Caused a great sensation.
Lin Xiwen also knew what the content of his movie was at the time. His usual method didn’t work at this time, it couldn’t make waves, and it was very likely that it would be caught between the two movies and the box office was crushed, so the movie was released. The time has changed.
Unexpectedly, the after-rhyme came to April because of Jiang Se’s later return to China, and the lingering power was not diminished. The relationship with Jiang Se’s endorsement of the federer watch dominated the headlines of the entertainment circle, so in desperation, Lin Xiwen will reschedule it to May. It's horrible.
"When the movie was released, it happened to be when it was released." Because of its outstanding box office results, the number of days of release was lengthened. "But even on the last day before the release, the box office statistics are not comparable."
In addition, the more Lin Xiwen’s film was promoted, the sign was
another masterpiece by Lin Xiwen
, so many viewers went with the quality slogan. After watching it, they were naturally annoyed and deceived. The masses criticized the movie on the Internet.
After Xia Chaoqun finished speaking, Mo Anqi continued:
"On the movie database, the score of this movie is only 21 points, and there are a lot of people who scolded it." She said that, and chose a comment to show Jiang Se. A netizen with the id named'Big Head Fish' was indignant. Says:
"The film was terrible. Lin Xiwen was going to be defeated by the accumulated goodwill. So-called, the whole audience clamored with gongs and drums to make people's brains painful. Visually, the male protagonist is wearing thick boots. Over 1.6 meters, the Xiaotian Dog will stand a head higher than him..."
A glass of yogurt: not only the male starring short, but the plot is also inexplicable. Chang'e and the Seven Fairies all chased Erlang, and there are several extremely restrictive scenes. If the movie has a rating, a represents ethics, b represents violence, and c represents bad movies. , D stands for eroticism, e stands for magic...I think this movie can stand at the peak of abcdefg...
Tenderly say I love you: Director Junshi, he has photographed Erlang God as a deformed alien.
...
When Jiang Se saw these comments, he couldn't help but laugh. The following were all scolding, shouting, "Lin Xiwen don't make movies, I can retire quickly." Many people even got angry and left a message saying: I no longer believe Lin Xiwen's The drama is so bad that I don’t even watch a new movie.
Xia Chaoqun saw Mo Anqi and others commenting and laughing, and couldn't help saying:
"Lin Xiwen shouldn't care about this movie." No matter how netizens scold this movie, it should not lose money.
It was originally a small-cost production. Almost all the actors hired are newcomers signed by Shangjia Company. The cost is very low. Although the results are not good after the screening, the cost should be kept. Lin Xiwen may still make a small profit.
However, the consequence of doing this is to ruin his reputation, and the next movie may not be willing to buy it.
"It's okay if it's ugly in general, but this movie has already affected the stock of Shangjia's investment, and it is difficult for Lin Xiwen to sit still." Xia Chaoqun analyzed, "In order to let the audience be after him. How can he walk into the cinema again obediently for his movie and pay for it, he must think of a better way."
When Xia Chaoqun said this, Jiang Se understood what she meant.
At this moment, Jiang Se is well-known, high-status, and has guaranteed acting skills. Lin Xiwen came to her to fight the fire.
With this front, no matter what themes of his next movie, he will inevitably be criticized by the audience, and there may not be audiences to buy him.
Generally, starring actors with insufficient status are likely to suffer from Lin Xiwen’s fame, leading to a decline in reputation. If one is not good, it is easy to be infamous and become a box office poison, which will affect future movie resources.
But if a star with a high box office like Jiang Se starred, it would be different.
Since Jiang Se debuted, every movie he has participated in has been of high quality, with good reputation and box office.
Even the performances of the several films that were the best performers at that time were remarkable. The first time the leading role played was also achieved very good results. After that, in the hearts of most Chinese audiences, Jiang Se may be a well-deserved box office queen, or even a single The film’s box office has overtaken Tao Cen.
Jiang Se can pick up Lin Xiwen's lost reputation, but the risk is not small, because if the quality of the film is too poor, it is very likely that Jiang Se will be affected by then.
How high the audience expects her at the moment, the better the box office of the movie will be, the more harsh it will be towards her later.
"His performance is not stable. What's the specific situation, you can consider it after meeting him tomorrow."
Having said that, Xia Chaoqun took a look at the time, "I will have a meeting in the company later, and I will pick a few scripts for you. You can choose for yourself."
She was with her, assistant Zhang Chi and others packed up and prepared to go back.
Jiang Se searched Lin Xiwen's new movie himself in the evening. Later, he also had several works, but none of them could keep up with the reputation and the box office was even worse.
Many people even said: I would rather watch it ten times than watch Lin Xiwen's new film once.
In particular, it is the worst word-of-mouth reputation in Lin Xiwen's directorial career, and the box office is not as good as one. No wonder he would call himself for help.
Meeting with Lin Xiwen, Jiang Se refused Mo Anqi's request to go with her.
In the coffee shop next to Century Galaxy in the Imperial Capital, when Jiang Se came, the waiter who opened the door for her in the coffee shop opened the door and said with a sweet smile on his face:
"Welcome..." Before the last word'pro' was spoken, the girl with a baby face raised her head and saw that the person coming in was Jiang Se, and screamed: "Ah... Jiang Se ..."
There are not many people in the cafe in the afternoon. Soothing light music is played inside. The relaxed-looking guests are blowing air-conditioning, drinking coffee, and smelling the sweet taste of pastries. When they are leisurely, the waiter screams. Many people are awakened.
Everyone in the cafe raised their heads when they heard her yelling.
Jiang Se wore a black knit top with a collar and a hip skirt. He laced black stiletto heels on his feet. His graceful and graceful posture attracted everyone's attention.
The girl's scream drew everyone's attention to Jiang Se. In the distance, Lin Xiwen stood up and waved his hand. Jiang Se smiled and said:
"I have friends in it."
"Sei, I like you so much. You are so tall and thin, and your legs are longer than those seen on TV." The girl opened a pair of shiny eyes and said like a gun in her mouth:
"The voice is so good, and the skin is so beautiful. Why is it so beautiful? I came to work here because I knew you were from Century Galaxy. I just wanted to meet you. After working for half a year, I saw it for the first time. You're here." Her cheeks flushed with excitement, and the store manager in the coffee shop was also startled by her voice. She came out with an embarrassed expression and pulled the person away, and kept bowing her head apologetically to Jiang Se.
Jiang Se gave a bitter smile, watching the girl with a reluctant look on his face being taken away, and then walked over to Lin Xiwen with a sigh of relief. It seems that he has been here for a while~EbookFREE.me~ The magazine he was holding turned over half of it, and when he saw Jiang Se coming over, he closed it and put it back on the shelf.
"Long waiting." Jiang Se sat down, and Lin Xiwen shook his head:
"I came too early."
The two met at three o'clock. Jiang Se was already fifteen minutes earlier than the agreed time. This is her character. Before she became an adult, she maintained the habit of arriving early. After becoming famous, she still maintained this punctuality. The quality undoubtedly made Lin Xiwen like it more.
He made a gesture and called the waiter to ask Jiang Se to order. This time it was a young boy. Although he did not yell like the girl at the beginning, he was still blushing when he came to Jiang Se. , His hands were still shaking, and from time to time he secretly raised his head to look at Jiang Se, and his face became redder every time he glanced at it.
After Jiang Se ordered something, he was still a little reluctant, until Lin Xiwen saw him several times before he walked away with a look of disappointment.
"Why didn't your assistant come?"
Lin Xiwen saw the previous farce in his eyes, and knew the extent of Jiang Se's current prosperousness. He found a sentence at random to start the scene, and Jiang Se took a deep look at him:
"Meeting with friends is not an official business. There is no need to bring an assistant with you."
As soon as she finished saying this, Lin Xiwen couldn't help laughing out:
"You still have this kind of character, sometimes it makes people like it, and sometimes it makes it tickle."
There was a briefcase next to where he was sitting, but Lin Xiwen didn't mean to open it at the first time. Instead, he talked with Jiang Se:
"The best decision I have ever made in my life was not to set up a Shangjia company or to make a lot of money. It took several years to find Teacher Hou Xiling and write the script. I believe Teacher Hou’s vision. I chose you to become the "cardamom" in China."
