This Star Doesn’t Work Overtime

Chapter 491: 489 continues to fall in ratings, The Ma

 The formal performances of the Spring Festival Gala are still going on as planned!

Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, An Keru, Zhang Hanwen, Du Wei, Li Youhua, Wei Hong, and Sun Li also performed at once!

Although Wen Yixiao and others are extremely popular and can be said to be the finale of this year's Spring Festival Gala, in fact they are all newcomers who have just debuted this year. They are all on the official Spring Festival Gala stage for the first time. However, few of them were not too excited and sat down after getting off the stage. Sit calmly in your own rest area backstage.

Li Youhua, Wei Hong, and Sun Li were extremely calm after the performance.

Sun Li couldn't help but whispered: "After performing with Wang Cheng once, I realized that some people are different when they stand on the stage. Only then did I understand why so many people are crazy about Wang Cheng. To be honest, I am all his now A loyal fan."

Wei Hong smiled and said, "Me too!"

Du Wei laughed and said: "Everyone we performed with him at that time was conquered by him. Even three top Asian girl groups from abroad became his fans. Wang Cheng's stage charm is absolutely amazing . I think those top European and American singers who are good at live performances do not have such strong stage charm and aura."

Li Youhua nodded after hearing this: "That's right! I've been to several large-scale live performances by superstars abroad. In terms of stage charm and appeal, they are really not as good as Wang Cheng."

 Zhang Hanwen: "So, Wang Cheng's development is still limited. Does he have the potential to become a top international superstar?"

Li Youhua said with certainty: "Of course there is a chance! It depends on whether he wants to go..."

The few people were chatting and seemed to be in a circle with other celebrities and artists around them.

Others wanted to come in and say something, but when they were talking about performing with Wang Cheng, they couldn't get in the middle of the conversation because none of them had ever performed with Wang Cheng.

Ding, Li Youhua's cell phone rang. He looked down, then his expression changed slightly, and he said softly to Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao and others: "I just received the news that the peak ratings of tonight's official performance are also Breaking the highest data in the past few years!”

 Zhang Hanwen said as a matter of course: "That's for sure. Wang Cheng took us to perform in front of us, and how much traffic it brought to the official performance later!"

Li Youhua continued: "Yes! So, tonight's peak ratings are at the beginning. There were twenty-five ratings at the beginning. Now it's past eleven o'clock, and only about seven o'clock is left, all the way down! Twelve o'clock It might increase a little, but not too much..."

Several people fell silent immediately after hearing this.

 They are all sensible people and know that the current ratings are only over 7 points, which is really unwatchable. It is lower than the lowest ratings last year.

I would like to explain that everyone did not have much surprise or nostalgia for tonight’s official performance. After watching it before, they were no longer interested. Maybe they will take another look at the New Year’s Eve at 12 o’clock to participate!

However, few people stopped discussing this topic.

After all, this is still the backstage of the Spring Festival Gala. If you say too much and other people hear it and spread it, it will be bad for offending someone.

  After all, this is the core of the Beijing Circle. If you are not careful, you may offend a big boss in the Beijing Circle...

 …

 In the blink of an eye.

 The new year is here.

 The Spring Festival Gala is also officially over.

 Qin Shangran and Xie Xingfeng both breathed a sigh of relief. Although the final ratings were not good, it was finally over, and their responsibilities were over. Next year would be someone else's business, so they didn't have to worry about it.

 Overall, they have been extremely successful this year.

Wang Cheng’s pre-show created a terrifying ratings of thirty-one points, and the peak ratings of the subsequent official performances were as high as twenty-five, which are several notches higher than in previous years!

When they were saying goodbye to the program crew and many celebrities backstage, both of them were smiling.

 “Let’s work together next time.”

 “Walk slowly, thank you for your hard work.”

 “Hahaha, your performance is the best this year.”

“Okay, okay, let’s have a meal together next time…”

The two of them dealt with the familiar celebrities and left the backstage, leaving the rest of the follow-up matters to the professionals of the program team.

 “Let’s go, have something to eat and then go to the cinema.”

 Xie Xingfeng and Qin Shangran drank a cup of tea in the office, then stood up and said.

Qin Shangran nodded, called home, and then walked out with Xie Xingfeng.

 The two of them ate a bowl of noodles on the roadside and then walked to the theater where Xie Xingfeng had reserved movie tickets in advance.

 As soon as they entered the cinema hall, the two of them were surprised.

 Because, the entire theater hall was already full, and long lines were lined up. Obviously, many viewers came to the theater early and lined up to watch the movie.

 General Xie Xingfeng gave Qin Shangran a ticket, and the two of them lined up together.

“Old Qin, look, the teams over there are all The Matrix…”

 Xie Xingfeng pointed to the team next to him and said to Qin Shangran.

Qin Shangran nodded clearly and said in a low voice: "Wang Cheng's fans can't wait to watch it as soon as possible..."

  After all, the pre-sale box office has reached more than 200 million, and the two of them can understand and accept this situation.

This movie theater is also one of the best in Beijing, so it deserves more people.

but…

 The two waited for a while and met many acquaintances.

 Zhu Ziqi, Han Xiao, Wen Yixiao, An Keru, Du Wei, Zhang Hanwen, Wei Hong, Sun Li, Li Youhua, Jiang Bin and others all appeared one after another.

There are other people they know who are not in the entertainment industry but are very famous.

For example, Wang Hongyi, Yu Hong, Chen Yuqi, Liang Xiaoliang, who have over 10 million fans, and other celebrities in the cultural circle.

 Obviously, these people came to watch the first scene so late because of Wang Cheng.

 The time is coming, and each team enters the cinema.

 Xie Xingfeng, Qin Shangran, Li Youhua, and Jiang Bin sat together.

 An Keru, Han Xiao, Wen Yixiao, Zhu Ziqi, Zhang Hanwen, Du Wei and others sat together.

 Behind are Wang Hongyi, Yu Hong, Liang Xiaoliang, Chen Yuqi and others...

 Coincidentally, everyone is sitting in the same movie theater.

However, this theater is one of the most high-end theaters in the entire movie theater with the most complete supporting facilities. It is not surprising that these prestigious people choose this place.

 So, at a glance, almost all the faces in the auditorium were familiar.

Zheng Wenzhong and several second-generation people from Beijing were also among them.

Yu Jinghong and Lei Zhenzong are also here...

Xie Xingfeng whispered to Jiang Bin and Qin Shangran beside him: "I have never watched a movie with so many famous people inside and outside the industry. Of course, except for those premieres. Wang Cheng's appeal is absolutely unquestionable."       Qin Shangran: " When so many major directors invited Wang Cheng in the past, they must have gone because of Wang Cheng’s appeal! I just don’t know how Wang Cheng’s works will be this year! Lao Jiang, are you worried?”

Jiang Bin said softly: "It's a lie to say I'm not worried, so I came to see it myself. If I had known a few months in advance that Wang Cheng's movie would be released during the Spring Festival, I might have postponed the release. Anyway, it won't be less than this year..."

Jiang Bin has always been famous for his slowness in filmmaking. To put it nicely, it means craftsmanship. Therefore, if he can avoid uncertainties, he is willing to wait another year for release so that he can carefully polish the details.

However, Wang Cheng’s film was suddenly shot and produced in the past three months. At that time, they had already confirmed the schedule and started publicity and distribution. There was no way to stop it and they could only continue.

Qin Shangran said in a low voice: "I think the work that was hastily shot in three months is not much of a threat to you. I am also looking forward to your new film. I have time to go and see it tomorrow morning!"

Jiang Bin smiled bitterly: "Look, this is the gap! You can take time to watch Wang Cheng's first movie in the middle of the night, but if you want to watch my movie, it depends on the time!"

Qin Shangran remained silent.

Indeed, for a practical man of his age, entertainment projects such as movies and television are no longer attractive. If he were not curious about what the science fiction movies starring and shot by 19-year-old Wang Cheng would be like, he would definitely not come to the cinema. Watching movies.

The words he said to Jiang Bin were also kind. He definitely didn't have time to go to the cinema recently to see what Jiang Bin's movies were like.

Several people are talking...

 The commercial time is over and the movie officially starts.

The Matrix!

 The beginning of the film…

 The entire screen was filled with a series of disordered green 0s and 1s flashing across it, like countless code numbers in a computer.

Then…

A figure is sitting in front of a computer in a small room, typing on the keyboard, eyes fixed on the screen, hands extremely fast, the screen flashes one code after another, then switches, and another chat box pops up. A hacker named Murphy and a hacker named Cui Yingying chatted.

This figure is naturally Wang Cheng, but at this time, Wang Cheng's image on the big screen is completely different from his usual external image. He is no longer cold and calm, but has a hint of otaku decadence and a hint of hacker's confidence. A slightly dirty T-shirt.

 This kind of Wang Cheng instantly surprised all the audience.

“Wang Cheng is really dedicated to the performance, and he seems to be two people in peacetime!”

Li Youhua praised: "Even if he develops in the actor's profession, with such a dedicated attitude and his talent, he will definitely become the most powerful actor!"

Jiang Bin was also surprised by the change in Wang Cheng's image at this time, and also praised Wang Cheng's performance, but he was more focused on the movie itself, saying softly: "The Matrix, it seems, is about hackers. It’s a story between organizations. In this case, many people may not be able to understand it!”

 The implication is that if many people don’t understand it, then the threat to their movies will be small.

 Zhu Ziqi, Wen Yixiao, Han Xiao, Yu Hong, Wang Hongyi, Liang Xiaoliang, Chen Yuqi and others all saw Wang Cheng in such an image for the first time, and their eyes sparkled.

With Wang Cheng like this, they suddenly felt that they were much closer, not as untouchable as usual.

I couldn’t help but sigh in my heart—it would be great if Wang Cheng was like this in life.

 As the movie progressed, they all began to pay attention to the plot of the movie.

Especially, when the villain Shi Tao came on stage with the agent played by Zhang Hanwen to capture Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng received a call from the mysterious hacker Murphy, who directed him to escape on the phone...

 However, Wang Cheng finally did not dare to jump over the window of the tall building, so he turned around and was caught by the agents.

Xie Xingfeng murmured in a low voice: "Could he be caught, and then other hackers will come to rescue him? Is the Matrix an organization?"

Then…

When Wang Cheng was caught and interrogated by the villain Shi Tao, everyone was stunned when the scene where Wang Cheng's mouth disappeared.

 “How did this become a superpower?”

 A young audience member asked curiously.

 They thought it was a matter between hackers.

As a result, the villain Shi Tao suddenly made a move that made Wang Cheng's mouth disappear and speechless!

 Then, a worm was put into Wang Cheng’s stomach…

This plot left everyone confused for a while, wondering who the protagonist and villain were and what they were doing.

Then…

Suddenly, Wang Cheng opened his eyes. Yan Zi was sweating profusely, as if he had just had a nightmare.

 My mouth was fine. I opened my clothes and looked at my belly. There were no bugs either...

Wang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, got up and found some food in his small rental house. Just when he was about to continue sleeping, the phone rang suddenly.

 The mood of all the audience also became tense.

Is this a dream?

The two great directors Xie Xingfeng and Jiang Bin had their eyes widened at this time. They were shocked by the plot arrangement of this movie. It was extremely compact. One suspense point after another kept the audience's interest in their mouths. So far, they have not lost their minds. point, and among the actors who appeared, everyone's acting skills were extremely online.

Even the two great directors could not help but be attracted by the movie at this time. They wanted to know how the subsequent plot would develop and what the movie was about.

This is not a movie made by a teenage director at all!

 Speaking of a movie produced by a top Hollywood team, they all believe...

On the movie screen, Wang Cheng answered the phone, and a cold female voice came on the other end of the phone. It was also the famous hacker Cui Yingying, asking Wang Cheng to go out to meet, and said - I will show you the truth!

Wang Cheng curiously put on his clothes and went out. It was raining heavily outside. A luxury car was parked downstairs. When he saw him coming out, the car door opened. He looked at a man sitting inside wearing a black tights and wearing sunglasses. The cold and beautiful woman waved to him.

In this way, she obviously has nothing to do with hackers, more like an agent killer, and this is the heroine played by An Keru. She has undergone earth-shaking changes from her previous image of a classical beauty, which made everyone present. A little surprised, a pair of eyes couldn't help but look at where An Keru was.

In the picture, Wang Cheng asked hesitantly: "Cui Yingying?"

 The woman nodded and waved: "Hurry up!"

Wang Cheng then got into the car.

As soon as he got in the car, Wang Cheng was about to ask questions when Cui Yingying held him down and used an instrument to **** out a mechanical bug from his stomach, which shocked everyone in the cinema.

This proves that what happened before Wang Cheng was silenced and released by Shi Tao was not a dream...

On the screen, Wang Cheng was also frightened and shouted a little madly: "What is this? Who are you? What is the truth?"

Then…

Wang Cheng was taken to see Murphy by Cui Yingying.
