Chapter 291 Shen Lang stirs up a hornet's nest

This interview on "12 Invitations" quickly sparked a craze of "looking for Chen" on the Internet.

Soon, the target was locked on Chen, the protagonist of "Mountains Have Water but No Heart".

According to insiders, Chen is only sixteen years old this year and has grown up in a wealthy family.

The father is the CEO of a listed media company. After learning that his son was interested in becoming an actor, he spent tens of millions to invest in a costume drama.

The purpose, on the one hand, is to help his son realize his dream.

On the other hand, I want my son to experience different lives before he becomes an adult.

Chen played two roles in the film. One netizen commented under the topic: "When I saw the poster, I really didn't recognize it was the same person. I was wondering why this drama cast two such ugly actors at the same time. After a closer look, it turned out to be the same person. Amazing, one face can be ugly in two different ways!"

Someone else said: "What criteria do you think they use to select the male lead?"

Answer: "Capital standards!"

What’s even funnier is that in this movie, except for the male lead, all the other actors are handsome men and beautiful women.

This further highlights the ugliness of the male protagonist.

"It doesn't matter if you're ugly. Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo aren't handsome, but they don't have a handsome persona. If you want to appear in a movie, use an image that suits you!"

"But that Chen really makes me...unable to complain!"

"I am so tired of saving money every day. I dare not buy cakes or drink tea. I have to control how much money I spend every day!"

"When I heard that the prince of a listed company wanted to make a movie to fulfill his dream, his family customized a script for him to play the leading role, and most of the other leading actors were minors, they just waved their hands and filmed for two months, and the film was in ancient costumes."

"Even if the actors are not expensive, the cost of setting up the scene and post-production special effects is not small. It will cost tens of millions, right?"

“What a rich guy!”

"Today I heard Teacher Shen Lang scold the male lead for being ugly, and I laughed. Little did I know that the male lead is an even bigger winner in life than you, Teacher Shen!"

"A little boy of fifteen or sixteen, Mr. Shen, at your age, are you still writing love letters in school?"

“People have already had all kinds of life experiences!”

"Smile and don't talk!"

The above passage was originally a complaint from a movie fan. In the comment section of the episode where Twelve Invitations interviewed Shen Lang, this comment received thousands of likes.

But, the original owner was just complaining.

Gradually, the direction of public opinion changed.

One netizen commented below: "Shen Lang is really venomous. The family of a 15- or 16-year-old boy is willing to pay for him to act in a movie. What does it have to do with you? You have only recovered for a few days? Do you think you have succeeded? Do you think you can point fingers at anyone?"

"That's right. I think the male lead of that play, who was not born into a professional family, performed very well. If it were someone else, they might not be able to perform as well as him!"

"What's wrong with people's families loving to spend money? Why are there so many cases of conjunctivitis in society?"

"Exactly. What's wrong with being rich? Can't children from rich families be actors? Look at Anna, she graduated from Oxford, her piano, calligraphy, and ballet are all top-notch, and her acting in the TV series "Where the Wind Stays" is also very nice, but there are people who are weird!"

Not only on the Internet, but also in real life, since Shen Lang opened fire, he has also encountered pressure from all sides.

Many friends in the circle called him and asked him to stop talking nonsense.

After all, the film and television industry is something that only capital can play with.

That’s right, when he was interviewed that day, he only mentioned Chen.

But Shen Lang's words that day undoubtedly dealt a heavy blow to many resource-intensive actors.

Even if it's Anna who has a good reputation in the industry, what do you think people will think after hearing this interview?
Han Ping even called him in the middle of the night and told him earnestly: "Teacher Shen, many people in the circle have a lot of opinions about you now. You must be more careful about what you say in the future!"

"Otherwise, it will be very difficult to invest in filming and schedule screenings in the future!" Shen Lang did not make things difficult for Han Ping. Obviously, he was also under a lot of pressure.

But when he called him, Han Ping was still very restrained, and advised him in the tone of an old friend instead of blaming him.

Shen Lang first calmed Han Ping down, but then... he was still prepared to do his own thing.

what happened?
I don't even have the right to speak?
I'm talking about Chen, am I talking about someone else?

Why do some people who identify themselves with the characters act like a cat with its tail stepped on when they hear themselves being interviewed?

It's because they know exactly what kind of people they are.

Do you want me, Shen Lang, to apologize?
Grandma!

Shen Lang thought that this matter would come to an end soon.

But then he realized that he had really underestimated those capitalists.

First of all, it was Jialan Film and Television. Many actors had already agreed on the notice, but were inexplicably notified by the crew that they didn’t need to come!

Some actors had even already joined the crew to film, but in the end, the crew would rather pay the penalty than replace the actors.

This abnormal behavior soon caught Gu Jialan's attention.

That day, the female assistant reported in her office: "Ling Jing's new play has been rejected. The other party did not give any explanation, only saying that the crew had other considerations!"

Gu Jialan was browsing the web with a Bluetooth mouse in his hand and did not say anything after his assistant finished his report.

The female assistant adjusted her glasses and said anxiously, "Boss Gu, I think this incident was caused by some remarks made by Mr. Shen... Mr. Shen. Otherwise, please ask Mr. Shen to come forward and explain to the media!"

Seeing that Gu Jialan had no intention of stopping him, the assistant continued, "At least we need to make him reduce the scope of attack, so that the company doesn't..."

Gu Jialan shook his head: "I think what he said is correct. That Chen is ugly and his acting is terrible! The guards in the crew are more suitable for the leading role than him. Do I have to force him to apologize or explain because he told the truth?"

The assistant was anxious: "You can't keep protecting him like this. The company has just started on the right track. If we offend the investors now, our company will soon be in trouble!"

"Manager Kong Yu of Youlan Cinema, did you read the Weibo post last night?"

"He said that for someone like Shen Lang who doesn't respect his fellow actors, their theater chain will not play any of Shen Lang's movies or any movies related to his company!"

"Although Kong Yu is not a big shot, there must be someone behind what he says!"

Gu Jialan frowned and looked up at his assistant.

Just as he was about to speak, Shen Lang pushed the door open and said, "Jia Lan, I think what your assistant said is right!"

The female assistant turned to look at Shen Lang. Hmm? This man is my lifelong enemy. Why would he speak for me today?
Gu Jialan said calmly: "I will handle this matter!"

"This boss is so rude!"

Although what you said sounded mighty and domineering, it gave me, Shen Xiaoruan, a sense of security that was sheltered from the wind and rain.

But I am Shen Xiaoruan. I can be hard when I need to be hard, and I can bend down when I need to be soft.

"Jia Lan, are you kidding me? This company is my livelihood. If it goes bankrupt, how will I eat and drink at your place in the future?"

Gu Jialan: “…”

Female assistant: "??? (Shen's lifelong enemy, are you serious? Do you think it's so justified to say that you are a gigolo? You are worthy of being my lifelong enemy, boss, you have to be careful...ah...ah!)"

Gu Jialan: "What are you going to do?"

"I was not paying attention when I spoke, and I swept across a large area. I was wrong, so I decided!!!"

"Call the names one by one!"

The document in the female assistant's hand fell to the ground with a "thump". She opened her mouth wide and looked at the... idiot in front of her!
