Chapter 592: You should collect your supernatural powers
"I’m here to observe the potential box office champion competitor in advance~ This is the last bit, it would be quite uncomfortable if I were surpassed."
Following Bai Liang’s second time and then performing a hat trick, he found that the expressions of the people listening to him had changed.
The famous two Best Actors, Liu Dehua and Liu Qingyun, pursed their lips, their faces showing helpless expressions, seemingly wanting to say something, but swallowed it back.
Maybe it was because they were older, their faces were wrinkled...
"I’m a bit scared, your words are a bit poisonous..."
Heavenly King Liu finally revealed a bitter smile and shook his head to tease.
The "ordinary citizen" Liu Qingyun on the side also nodded, obviously also paying attention to this aspect of the news.
Recently, Bai Liang frequently appeared at movie premieres, and he sent such a "blessing" to everyone he met.
Originally it was nothing, but this blessing of his was not right!
Whoever receives it is unlucky!
And so, regardless of whether it was *The End of Endless Love* or *Warm Hug*, their reputations all cracked...
These two movies still had quite high topic degrees. The former had Guo Xiaosi, a controversial player, standing on the stage, and the latter was the team of Mahua FunAge, which could be considered the wave that received a lot of attention among the movies released this month.
In fact, the box office performance was also fine, at least it didn't collapse very badly, it was a "good project" that made money after all.
This is the benefit of having fame and traffic. Some movies, even if the reputation and ratings are good, are very difficult to exchange for real box office.
Simply put, rotten is also rotten and well-known, which might be easier for people to accept than a good reputation that no one knows about.
But this couldn't cover up Bai Liang’s act of "poisonous milk"!
There were many people on the internet joking that he had taken money before, and now everyone was saying "Immortal, hurry up and collect your supernatural powers."
That sentence of his, "box office champion competitor," was practically like a curse. The box office was definitely not going to catch up with his, but the reputation was definitely going to crack.
Originally, everyone didn't believe his so-called "see the competitor" words, but now they really believed it.
They felt that he not only wanted to see the potential competitor, but also wanted to "kill" them.
And people in the film and television circle were already a bit superstitious. A large part of these things were passed down from Hong Kong. The tradition of worshiping God at the start of filming started from there, and later it was brought to the mainland.
So the question is, how much do these people, who were originally Hong Kong teams, believe in this?
One sentence: they were terrified!
Bai Liang was now not only the top-tier star of the inner circle, the top 1 in box office, but his weirdness was the most frightening thing.
"Brother Liang, hurry up and collect your supernatural powers, our movie is not aimed at the box office champion, not to that extent..."
"Already felt the magic power, the scalp started to itch~"
"Hong Kong movies are not easy... everyone is just trying to make a living."
"..."
Bai Liang: ???
No, he was just like before, habitually saying some auspicious words when meeting, and sending some blessings.
How did these people get so miserable? And he remembered that *Shock Wave 2* was quite good. Before, when he was chatting with Ni Ni, he congratulated her on turning over and getting good resources, but these main creators were so unconfident?
Main creators of the movie: We are actually confident in the movie, but we are more confident in you.
Who isn't afraid of metaphysics?
Among these people, there were quite a few who had gone to see the White Dragon King before~
Bai Liang’s surname was also Bai, and his nickname in the world was Immortal Bai... it felt like it wasn't much different. The difference was that he didn't tell fortunes for people, but purely "sent blessings" here.
Actually, just sending blessings was fine, but who let this guy have other previous convictions!
This situation made Bai Liang a bit embarrassed, but he was a very easy-going person. Since these people believed in this so much and hoped he could change his words, he naturally wouldn't be unsatisfied.
He even asked for their opinions very considerately, and tentatively said:
"How about changing it to... I think your movie is going to flop at first glance, it poses no threat to my box office champion, and can only win the Golden Broom Award?"
"Eh! That’s right!"
"This sounds comfortable."
"Thank you, Brother Liang!"
"..."
Bai Liang’s tone changed, and the main creators in front of him stopped having bitter faces, and their smiles immediately came out, and one was more brilliant than the other.
Da Tian Tian, who had been sticking to Bai Liang since she came in, looked at this magical scene and felt it was truly unbelievable.
She was just "locked up" in the crew for a period of time, what happened to the film circle?!
Couldn't help but reach out and poke Bai Liang, and deliberately put on a slightly serious look, "Ahem, when I wasn't here, what bad things did you do again?"
"Me?" Bai Liang pointed to his nose, "How could I do bad things?"
"You like doing bad things the most!"
Da Tian Tian said firmly, obviously feeling that she had the right to speak on this aspect.
However, what she understood and what she was expressing at this moment were obviously not the same thing.
Forcibly merging serious business and eroticism, how could they be mentioned in the same breath?
But Bai Liang wouldn't give Da Tian Tian any lessons on this aspect, but very cleverly changed an angle to answer.
"Actually, you feel weird, just because they carry more and are more nervous."
"What do you mean?" Da Tian Tian looked puzzled.
"In recent years, Hong Kong movies have been these old faces back and forth... they have no one."
No fresh blood is actually the biggest problem in the Hong Kong circle.
In the situation where the inner circle is rolling so hard that a bunch of newcomers emerge every year, beating their predecessors to death on the beach, every film and television drama produced by the Hong Kong circle every year makes the audience feel familiar with everyone.
At the same time, they are only familiar with those actors whose average age is at least 40+, and basically don't recognize the young ones.
Every year they shout that Hong Kong movies are rising and want to return to the golden age of the past, but the reality is that the old ones are supporting them, playing permutations and combinations in various ways.
At the same time, the Hong Kong Film Awards, which once had gold content and popularity, still stick to that set of standards, making most mainland movies basically unable to participate, and the result is that there is less and less attention every year.
Everyone is too lazy to pay attention to this thing, so it’s strange if it doesn't die.
Da Tian Tian was obviously attracted by such a high-end topic. Discussing the life and death of Hong Kong movies!
She could actually point fingers here too~
Especially when she was in front of them... of course! Bai Liang was so polite and gentle, he certainly couldn't really expose the scars to their faces, the two were discussing secretly.
But this still made Da Tian Tian feel very exciting!
This kind of strange pleasure of speaking "bad things" behind people’s backs was truly a quite good experience.
Similar to fighting in the wild?
This metaphor is a bit inappropriate, after all, she hadn't experienced this thing, at most she had opened the window in Bai Liang’s RV and fooled around~
But she couldn't help but imagine it herself!
"Eh~ look at that little fatty, do you know him?"
When Bai Liang secretly pointed to a male artist for Da Tian Tian to see, she observed carefully for a few seconds, and then looked confused.
"Who is he? Don't know."
"You don't even know the top-tier star of Hong Kong?"
"Ah?!"
