Chapter 49 Everything Goes Wrong
Chapter 49 Everything Goes Wrong
The day after the Beijing Film Academy's anniversary celebration, Lin Feng received news that Yu Haoming and Selina (Ren Jiaxuan) had been severely burned in an explosion accident while filming the TV series "I Have a Date with Spring," and the two were rushed to the hospital.
"Oh no! This shouldn't have happened!" Lin Feng was completely dumbfounded!
Even Deng Shuang looked worried, exclaiming, "Oh my god, how could this happen!"
Lin Feng felt a pang of heartache. On one hand, he was genuinely worried about Yu Haoming, and on the other hand, he hated himself. He knew perfectly well what had happened in his past life, but he had forgotten. If he had reminded Yu Haoming earlier, perhaps he could have prevented this disaster.
Lin Feng doesn't have many friends at EE-Media, but he has a very good relationship with the 07 Super Boy contestants, especially Lu Hu, Yu Haoming, and Wei Chen, who starred in the Meteor Shower series. They all have a very good relationship.
This is why Lin Feng and Deng Shuang didn't sing in the second season of "Meteor Shower Again"—they gave that opportunity to Wei Chen, who was releasing an album.
Lin Feng truly hated himself. He clearly had the ability to change everything, but he forgot, he really forgot. "No, I have to go to the hospital myself!"
Even though Lin Feng knew it was all in vain, he still had to go and see for himself, and Deng Shuang quickly followed along.
Yu Haoming was still in the operating room. Lin Feng had stayed outside all night, and only left after confirming that Yu's condition had stabilized. He left only a note.
"Haoming, keep going! We'll be waiting for you to come back!"
On the way back, the thought of Yu Haoming's burns and his parents' anguish made Lin Feng want to cry. He felt incredibly guilty.
Lin Feng truly hated himself. He actually had the opportunity to stop all of this, but he forgot, he really forgot. He truly hated himself!
"Lin Feng, don't be so upset. Haoming will definitely be alright. Don't blame yourself too much. Who knew this would happen? Haoming is bound to be lucky and will be fine."
Deng Shuang kept comforting Lin Feng. She never expected that Lin Feng had such deep feelings for Yu Haoming. Men, sometimes, are really hard to understand.
What she didn't know was that besides this, Lin Feng's main motivation was his ability to change the future, even to the point that he could change everything with just a flick of his wrist. He wanted the people around him to become better.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng hugged Deng Shuang tightly, and he secretly vowed to make Deng Shuang's future even better!
Yu Haoming's burn injury on set caused a great stir within EE-Media, considering that Yu Haoming was considered the second most favored actor in the film and television industry, second only to Lin Feng.
He had previously participated in "Super Boy" and gained immense popularity through two "Meteor Shower" dramas. However, this accident brought his acting career to a standstill, which is incredibly cruel for an artist.
At this moment, all the artists and fans of Tianyu Media prayed and offered their blessings for Yu Haoming!
From that day on, everything seemed to go wrong for Lin Feng. He had originally planned to take on another film or television series before filming "Love is Not Blind," but he was rejected three times.
This was the first time Lin Feng had been rejected since his debut, and it was the third time in a row. He even had to use a "business negotiation card (gold card)".
The first one is "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate". Lin Feng wanted to win the role of the second male lead "Yu Huatian". You should know that Li Yuchun, the "face of Tianyu", also had a role. However, director Tsui Hark did not give Lin Feng an audition opportunity and directly chose Chen Kun.
The second one is "The Flowers of War". Lin Feng also wanted to audition for the role of "Instructor Li", a Chinese soldier, but Zhang Yimou did not give Lin Feng the opportunity and chose Tong Dawei instead.
The third was *Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons*, for which Lin Feng wanted to audition for the male lead, "Tang Xuanzang." It was a secret audition; he had no idea that this film, slated for a 2013 release, had been in development since 2010 and filming had begun in 2011.
This time, Lin Feng did get an audition opportunity, and Stephen Chow was quite satisfied with his performance, saying, "I didn't expect someone as handsome as you to have such comedic talent. I have high hopes for our collaboration." However, in the end, Stephen Chow still chose Wen Zhang.
This puzzled Lin Feng. After all, Wen Zhang's popularity and status were not stronger than Lin Feng's. His most famous work, "Love is Not Blind," was actually written by Lin Feng!
What's more, Lin Feng even used a "Business Negotiation Card (Gold Card)" to get this role, which increased the probability by 20%, but it didn't work. He wasted 3 stars. It seems that the system is not omnipotent. It only provides a probability, not a certainty!
Is it really because Wen Zhang's acting skills are better than his own, or is it because he is Li Lianjie's godson and can talk to Stephen Chow, so Stephen Chow has not considered him?
Lin Feng didn't understand!
The only good news during this period was that at the closing ceremony and awards ceremony of the 23rd Tokyo International Film Festival, "Buddha Mountain" won two major awards: the Best Artistic Contribution Award and the Best Actress Award.
In particular, Fan Binbin won the Best Actress award, her first Best Actress award at an A-list international film festival, and Lin Feng sent her a congratulatory message immediately.
I didn't expect Fan Binbin to reply so quickly and with so much text. "Lin Feng, I think this is the first time you've ever messaged me first. It's really rare! You're such a busy person, I thought you'd forgotten about me!"
You mentioned before that the movie "Buddha Mountain" would bring me an acting award; you really are my lucky star! Tell me, how should I reward you? How about I repay you with my body? Okay, I've received your blessing! Thank you!
There was only this one piece of good news: if things didn't go smoothly, there was still "Love is Not Blind"—the script was finished, Lin Feng had read it, and the plot was similar to his previous life.
The director has been found, and Xue Xiaolu has agreed to direct. After all, she just directed her first art film, "Ocean Sky," which only grossed over ten million yuan even with Li Lianjie's involvement.
Everything went smoothly until they found a film company to invest in the project. Several companies declined, not being very optimistic about it.
This is understandable. After all, even the "iron triangle" of Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang, and Huang Bo, who were top-notch comedians in the past, didn't dare to invest in "Lost in Thailand." Nowadays, major film companies are very superstitious about big directors and big actors.
Xue Xiaolu is a new director, and Lin Feng is a complete new actor. They haven't even made a single film yet, so it's normal for them to be suspected. However, the fact that "Love is Not Blind" has such a small budget, and they didn't even bother to discuss it, made Lin Feng nervous.
The production cost of the previous version of "Love is Not Blind" was 8.9 million, while the production cost of Lin Feng's version must be at least 10 million. The final product cannot be worse than the previous one! It cannot be lower than the previous one!
Lin Feng can invest himself, or he can get Tianyu Media to invest some, but he can't support a 1000 million investment. There will definitely be other investment companies needed, not to mention the movie promotion later!
Lin Feng can't do all this by himself!
Seeing that the investment was slow to arrive, Bao Jingjing was even considering giving up. She even regretted it a little, thinking, "If I had known, I would have handed the film over to director Teng Huatao back then. He would definitely have been able to secure the investment."
"Senior Sister Bao, please wait a little longer. It's already December, and even if 'Love is Not Blind' starts filming, it won't be until next year. Maybe it will be better after January next year!"
"Wait a little longer, be patient. I said 'Love is Not Blind' would start filming within a year, and it definitely will. It will be released on November 11th next year, absolutely! You have to believe me, give me some time."
time!
Lin Feng just needs time!
The release date of "Love is Not Blind" cannot be changed. This has been proven in a past life. This "once-in-a-century" opportunity must not be missed!
Looking back, the filming of "Love is Not Blind" was not difficult. Post-production would take only one or two months, and filming would also take about one or two months. With the addition of pre-production preparation, six months would definitely be enough time.
In other words, as long as it is turned on before June 2011, it is fine, even if it is later, but to ensure quality, the earlier the better!
time!
It's all about time!
Lin Feng is waiting for "Palace" in January. If it becomes as popular as its predecessor, then the "Meteor Shower" series plus "Palace" will be a double hit!
This is not a matter of "1+1>2", but a matter of "1+1>10". At that time, Lin Feng could significantly increase his endorsement of GG and his film remuneration. He could invest more and also let Tianyu invest more.
Lin Feng has always relied on himself. He can't rely on traditional film companies. They can only "add flowers to brocade" but not "provide charcoal in the snow." He is in the early stage of the "traffic era." Internet capital has not yet come, and mainstream capital has not yet recognized the value of traffic. So he can only rely on his own efforts!
Recently, things haven't been going well for Lin Feng, and he wanted to vent, to vent his frustrations. He suddenly wanted to record a song, a song he used to sing often in his past life, so he directly found a Land Rover and recorded "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky".
Can the brightest star in the night sky hear me?
"The loneliness and sighs in the hearts of those who look up."
"Oh, do you remember the brightest star in the night sky?"
"The figure that once walked with me has vanished into the wind."
I pray to have a transparent heart.
"And eyes that can shed tears"
Give me the courage to believe again.
"Oh, I'll embrace you beyond the lies."
"Whenever I can't find meaning in my existence"
"Whenever I get lost in the darkness"
"Oh, the brightest star in the night sky"
Please guide me closer to you.
