Chapter 251 2 Extremes
Originally, Jiang Yi regarded "Love in the Moonlight" as a life-saving straw. His situation was worse than that of He Zhixing, Wei Zhe and others. Wei Zhe had always been relatively mediocre. The reason why he came to interview for this drama was mainly to take a chance and seek an opportunity for promotion.
Although it failed in the end, it actually didn't have that much impact on Wei Zhe. He could still continue along his previous path, but it would just be lukewarm. He was used to it. If this play didn't do well, he could wait for the next opportunity.
But Jiang Yi was not like that. Before he came for the interview for "Love Is Not Blind", he was already on the verge of falling off the list. One of his previous big-budget movies failed, causing the investors to lose all their money. Although those investors would not go bankrupt because of a movie, the situation that time was indeed a bit special.
Originally, the male lead of that drama was not Jiang Yi. It was because Jiang Yi's side snatched the role away through some special operations. At that time, some investors expressed dissatisfaction. They invested in this drama originally for the original male lead, but you replaced him, so I definitely have objections.
But Jiang Yi was doing well at the time, and one of his TV series happened to be a hit. The investor didn't understand the difference between movies and TV series, and Jiang Yi had acted in movies before. Plus, seeing that the other party's TV series was doing so well, he reluctantly agreed to change the male lead.
But he didn't expect that the investment would go down the drain in the end. The investor might have even wanted to kill Jiang Yi at that time.
However, investing in movies also has risks. No one can guarantee you that you will make money. But isn’t the reason why everyone invests in movies with the idea of making money?
It’s just that it’s hard to say this idea out loud. Many experienced investors may feel heartbroken, but they will find another opportunity to invest in another film and make the money back.
But who could blame him for the fact that one of the investors in this movie was a newcomer in the industry? And this person happened to be the one who questioned Jiang Yi's choice in the first place.
He doesn't care about the saying that investment is risky. If you make me lose money, I will cause trouble for you.
That incident caused quite a stir in the circle at the time, but to be honest, it was the investor who was in the wrong. Actors are definitely looking forward to making money for you, but the risk is not something they can control, right?
So in the end, the investor made a big fuss, but failed to ban Jiang Yi as he wished.
But it is undeniable that Jiang Yi's reputation has been somewhat bad since that incident, and many investors still care about the title of box office poison.
What can Jiang Yi do? He still feels aggrieved!
You know, he was the one who snatched the show, but it ended up being such a failure. Who knows how the original male lead must be laughing at him in his heart! He really didn't even dare to face the other party after that, for fear of seeing the other party's eyes looking at him with a joke.
Also, all the effort the company put into replacing him in the first place was subsequently translated into a sharp reduction in his resources. He can't complain about this because it's his own fault!
Later, he was so eager to interview for "The Moon Is Not Full", because that was really his only chance. Because the company basically didn't provide him with good resources. If he continued to develop like that, he would be a second- or third-tier star, or even an eighteenth-tier star. He would still have to thank the company for its kindness and willingness to give him some resources.
The rest include Pu Junqi and others. Because these people have some talent and basically have a hit drama in their hands, they are qualified to be recommended to audition for Hu Haomiao's play.
For example, Wen Jinnian is actually in the same situation, but his drama was a bit more popular, and it was almost famous all over East Asia and Southeast Asia at that time, so his starting point was relatively higher than others. Just based on that drama, he became a second- or third-tier male star at that time.
This also seemed to prove that Wen Jinnian's talent and strength far exceeded others.
Sure enough, he was the one chosen in the end.
Now seeing that he and others are about to go to two extremes because of the drama "The Legend of Zhen Huan", how can other people's thoughts about him not be complicated?
