The speech ends and enters the question-and-answer session.

Chen Lin had to concentrate. He knew better than anyone else that he was definitely at the forefront of the entertainment industry. Once he was speechless, what was waiting for him was his opponent's criticism!

After all, the freedom in the Chinese entertainment industry has increased much more than in the 1990s. In fact, after the arrival of the era of self-media, many people have the freedom to speak, which means that everyone can start to criticize. Even if "Chinatown Veteran" is backed by the three major producers of China Film, Huayi and Light, it cannot be achieved by one person!

There are always some people who will be jealous when they see Chen Lin’s success.

In recent times, while the box office results of "Chinatown Veterans" have been rising steadily, the dark spots about Shen Lin have gradually been opened up on the Internet, and various negative news has frequently appeared on some forums and some unknown websites.

Some people even said that they witnessed Chen Lin sleeping with a shemale in Thailand. They were sure of it and made up a story!

This is a very conventional means of competition. When a director or actor successfully takes office, there will definitely be a bunch of malicious smears from competitors.

Chen Lin filmed "33 Days of Love Break" and "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years". People would say, "A writer, but also a best-selling writer, with a fan halo, and a high box office, which is normal!"

But "Veter" is different. It's a completely new IP and the box office exploded!

And by following this routine, you can shoot a sequel.

This is not easy to deal with, and it must be suppressed!

...

"Teacher Chen Lin..."

The first guy who stood up was a young man wearing glasses, and then he spoke. Chen Lin hurriedly interrupted: "I beg you all, don't call me teacher. You can call me Chen Lin or Director Chen, I, a master who has never attended college, call me teacher, this is too slap the teacher in the face!"

"...Well, Director Chen, one thing I want to ask you is the Emblem, Bai Baihe, Huang Xuan, Ma Sichun, and Lin Gengxing, Wang Xun, and Yang Rong, who are all popular through your movies. How do you define the relationship between you and how many people you follow? Or, let me ask you again, are there any standards for you to choose an actor?"

"Relationship? Partnership!"

"First of all, Teacher Heralds is not famous for acting in my plays. He has been very famous before. What does Miss Bai Baihe say? Her aura is very special, not too beautiful, but not ugly, and her eyes are very strong. This kind of actor has a wide range of acting careers. Even without me, she will be popular. The same is true for other actors. Maybe I am lucky, but I didn't even give me any effort to pick the actors."

"As for my criteria for selecting actors, first of all, he must be an actor. I have mentioned in Brother Han's program before, the difference between actors and celebrities, if you don't understand what I said, you can go back and watch it again; secondly, his image must conform to my setting for this character..."

"But there is a saying that you don't like to use Hong Kong and Taiwan actors. Can you give me an explanation?"

Before Chen Lin finished speaking, his eyes asked again.

"I don't like Hong Kong and Taiwan actors? Who said that? Isn't the Yuezi in my first drama "33 Days of Love Break" an HK actor?"

"But you..."

"I understand what you mean, that is, I didn't use big-name actors, right?"

Chen Lin was particularly considerate and then said: "My movie is made of our own business, so why do we have to add Hong Kong and Taiwan actors? As soon as they speak, the audience will get out of the show, so why bother! When I have time to think about the story of HK, I will definitely let HK actors participate!"

This person obviously heard Chen Lin's perfunctoryness. Although he was a little dissatisfied, he could only sit down because the second questioner stood up: "Director Chen, hello, I am a documentary director and am now preparing to make commercial films. Can I ask you how you made a movie with a box office of more than one billion yuan? How do you operate it?"

“Are you really a documentary director?”

Chen Lin deliberately looked curious.

“Yes, my work has won the American Emmy Award for Best Documentary!”

When I said this, this guy was obviously a little proud.

"Not bad! By the way, you may not know that the TV series I wrote has won the Emmy Award for Best Drama Series and Best Screenwriter. I didn't just receive the award. I really don't have time to pick it up on my behalf."

It was considered to be a step back on the award, and then back to the questioner's question: "A movie, especially a commercial movie, must have had market research when it was launched, which is the most basic. The director's responsibility is to shoot it. If you ask a director to be responsible for the box office, I think this thing is a bit unreliable. There are too many factors that affect the big sales of a movie, the publicity strength, the performance of the actors, and the competitiveness of the same period."

“Don’t a director be responsible for the box office of the movie?”

"First of all, movies with high box office are not necessarily good movies, and a bad box office may not necessarily be low box office. It's a bit too arbitrary to judge a movie like this. For example, when "The Shawshank Redemption" was released, it was a lot of money, but can you say that it was a bad movie?"

“So what do you have to do with the box office of the movie you directed?”

"It's very simple, as long as you don't lose money, it's enough! Only movies that don't lose money are works in the positive industrial system!"

"Director Chen's words are very reasonable. It does not mean that only students with good academic performance are promising young people!"

Sa Beining summarized it.

"Director Chen, you didn't go to college at the beginning, I really want to ask you, why didn't you go to college? Don't you think it might be a regret in your life if you don't go to college?"

The third person asked was a girl.

"I remembered a program that our CCTV once did, "Dialogue", which was the episode that my good friend, Mr. Han. At that time, he was watched by various audiences, and it was also said that it was a pity that he would not go to college. I still clearly remember that Professor Chen Xiaoming said this at the time, "Maybe Mr. Han should keep him pure. He may only be able to walk for three or five years. If he wants to walk for fifty years, he will go to college. Like everyone else, the same, Mr. Han disappeared." Probably that's what it means. Looking back at this question, is university useful for people like Mr. Han or people like me? I don't want to say whether it is useful to college or not. If you want to live an ordinary life and find a good job, of course you should go to college. The money I earned at that time was enough to buy two houses in Beijing, and I also bought it..."

When it came to this, there was a noise at the scene.

"You...have you really bought a house?"

Sa Beining was also a little surprised.

"Well, I thought I should buy something to keep my value. When I bought a house in Shengshi, I bought two houses, both of which were next to the Second Ring Road, which was probably very valuable!"

"Wow!"

There was another sensation on the scene!

"When we go back to the university problem, I still encourage everyone to go through a round of university education. I am different. I am very precocious, so precocious that I know what I want. I don't need a tutor to teach me how to be a human being!"

"Will you choose again? Will you go to college? I heard that your college entrance examination scores were not too bad at that time, at least you could go to schools like Beijing Foreign Studies University."

Sabining took over the problem.

“If I were to say something to my 18-year-old self, I would say ‘Well         Done!’”

OK, you won!
