My artist wants to quit the entertainment industry every day

Chapter 174 World Premiere Press Conference, Amazing Work
Fourteen o'clock on September [-]th.

"Farewell My Concubine" held a press conference for its world premiere.

The four leading actors Chi Yu, Fu Dalong, Wan Qian, and Ge You, as well as Zhang Hanyu, Yang Rong, Yingda and other actors were all present.

Screenwriter Lu Wei was also present.

Only Li Bihua, the author of the original work, still maintains a mysterious attitude.

Speaking of which, Li Bihua is also a well-known figure in the history of Xiangjiang films.

In addition to "Farewell My Concubine", her works also include "Green Snake", "Rouge Button", "Tempting the Monk", "Kawashima Yoshiko" and so on.

People comment on her works, her stories are strange, her writing style is enchanting, her style of writing is cold, her novels are unique and unique.

Li Bihua's works also have a strong personal touch, which is so vivid and intense that it makes you choke.

She is best at writing about women.

Most of the men in her works are cowardly, selfish and ignorant.

For example, Liang Shanbo's narrowness, Xu Xian's cowardice, Duan Xiaolou's ignorance, and the fickleness in dumplings.

Men are always supporting roles in her plays.

When there was only one woman, she would write about her lingering love. When there were two women, it became a wonderful wrestling——Dieyi and Juxian, Green Snake and White Snake, Qin Chao’s Dong’er and The modern stars, Chang'e and Queen Mother of the West.

Men are not important, what she values ​​is the fighting and tenderness between you and me.

It is such a writer who writes about women's passion, determination and paranoia, and there are only a handful of people who have seen her.

It is possible that she passes in front of you without you recognizing her.

In the eyes of everyone, Li Bihua seemed particularly "different".

Although both Chen Wuji and Lu Wei commented in private, saying that "Farewell My Concubine" is not high-profile, it's just a third-rate novel—it kind of means picking up the bowl to eat and putting down the bowl to scold your mother.

But it didn't affect his adaptation, nor did it affect his invitation to Li Bihua to appear before the press conference.

I just invited a few times, but I couldn't invite it.

In the end, Li Bihua only said in the movie that if he had time, he would go, but he would not appear on stage.

So at the scene, a certain old man in his 60s and [-]s was very likely to be her.

After the press conference started, Chen Wuji didn't say any more about his purpose and ambition for making this movie.

That sentence: "Farewell My Concubine is my gift to the 123rd anniversary of world cinema! And I am confident that this film will leave a mark in the history of world cinema!"

"You can say that before the shooting, but after the shooting, it can only be handed over to the audience and experts." Chen Wuji said.

Even so, many people still saw extreme confidence from his face.

"Don't be anticlimactic again!"

Before the movie started to show, many people were muttering in their hearts.

There is no way, Chen Wuji can maintain a relatively stable level before "The Promise", at least the second half collapses, and the collapse will not be too radical.

But since "The Promise", Chen Wuji's films have become a bit unstable.

There was even a situation where the whole process collapsed.

However, nearly three hours later, when the veil of "Farewell My Concubine" was lifted for them all, they had great thoughts of doubt——

"Is this really a movie that Chen Wuji can make?"

They felt that it was impossible for Chen Wuji to make such a high-quality movie!
There must be something tricky!
"Director Chen, did you direct the second half of this movie yourself?" A reporter asked sternly.

"Yes!" Chen Wuji was in a good mood today, otherwise, he would definitely curse.

"Director Chen, in the movie, many adaptations have been made to the original content, especially Cheng Dieyi's suicide at the end. What are your considerations?" A reporter asked a normal question.

"This question is very good. The original book is mostly about love and love, lingering, strange and ingenious, unprecedented and unique."

A smug smile appeared on Chen Wuji's face, and he changed his voice: "But that's not what I want. What I want to express is not the love and hatred between Cheng Dieyi, Duan Xiaolou and Juxian, but the love and hatred between 50 Times change over the years."

"As for why Cheng Dieyi committed suicide in the end. Because of infatuation and betrayal."

Chen Wuji said: "It has been hinted repeatedly in the movie that Cheng Dieyi is the real Concubine Yu, and the final outcome of Concubine Yu is to kill herself with the sword of the Overlord."

The reporter went down, and the other reporter got up.

"Director Chen, are you making this movie to reflect on history?"

Good guy!
The hat snaps on really well.

Chen Wuji shook his head with a smile: "I just photographed a few sections of history truthfully. The so-called reflection depends on what angle you look at."

"So the reflection of this movie is all from the perspective of the art of Peking Opera, and the core concept is only six words: If you are not crazy, you will not survive."

"But in this case, don't you think it's too extreme?"

"Artists, how many are not extreme?"

Chen Wuji asked back, and then asked again: "Speaking of which, those who can't be artists are the most extreme, aren't they?"

With this sentence, Chi Yu wanted to attract Chen Wuji's confidant.

In ancient and modern times, at home and abroad, few of the truly radical artists are artists, because when an artist is radical, at most, he just paints some shocking works.

For example, Bada Shanren is just a picture of a starling bird rolling its eyes.

For example, Wuhe Qilin is just a montage caricature.

But for those non-artists, if they become radical, it’s incredible.

For example, the art student who was not admitted to the Academy of Fine Arts gave a speech at the end and...

For example, the emperor who loved to stamp his works destroyed countless paintings and killed countless people...

"Chi Yu, how difficult is it for you to play an actor with mental disabilities?" At this time, the reporter's question made Chi Yu return to the press conference from his distraction.

"It shouldn't be difficult, right? The role of Cheng Dieyi is just a deviation in psychological gender. It's actually not difficult to find out." Chi Yu said simply.

However, Chen Wuji couldn't let him be so simple.

"Many people may know that Chi Yu was the first role I decided to play when I was filming this movie."

Chen Wuji held the microphone, and after seeing many people nodding, he broke the news: "Actually, it can be said that the final result of this film, Chi Yu's understanding of the characters, changed some of my thoughts before filming started, and also promoted my filming. A shift in artistic thinking."

Chi Yu was stunned for a moment, and quickly waved his hands to show that he didn't dare.

"Basically from the start of the film, Chi Yu spent most of his time wearing costumes, swinging his sleeves while walking, practicing his gait, and his posture. He also muttered words, completely immersed in the world of the character."

Chen Wuji continued: "Actually, he has a good background in drama, but it's normal, not Cheng Dieyi's non-crazy and non-survival appearance, so it's more difficult to change."

Many people nodded.

This is true.

It is easier to draw something on a piece of white paper.

But the process of drawing something new and modifying it on paper that has already been drawn can be maddening.

Chi Yu saw that Chen Wuji was boasting endlessly, and quickly said: "Although there are some difficulties, it is really enjoyable to immerse yourself in the role and perform every scene well. This is inseparable from the excellent control of the director. Basically, everyone is looking forward to the next play."

Chen Wuji said: "The crew of Farewell My Concubine is like a plate of flowing water, everyone is trying their best to do their best."

The reporter asked Chi Yu again: "In the movie, which scene do you think was the hardest to shoot?"

"It's the hardest."

Chi Yu thought for a while, and then said: "The scene of being criticized was the most exhausting both physically and mentally. The hysterical betrayal and betrayal, persecution and persecution, the inexplicable relationship, after the filming, I almost lost my strength. .”

At the scene, it was impossible for the reporter to question Chi Yu and Chen Wuji all the way.

So a reporter said: "In this drama, Mr. Ge You didn't appear many times, but he was absolutely amazing. Especially the courtroom defense scene, it was absolutely amazing!"

"Thank you, I haven't acted enough." Uncle Ge said with a smile.

That scene was also quite a challenge for him.

That line is this:
"The obscene words and songs mentioned by the prosecutor just now are really absurd!"

"What Cheng sang that night, the Peony Pavilion is a discount for the garden, as we all know, it is the most quintessence of Chinese culture."

"Why did it become a pornographic song in the mouth of the prosecutor?"

"Such a slander of the essence of Chinese dramas, who specifically humiliated our national dignity and destroyed our national spirit?"

These four sentences were said in a serious manner, and only an actor like Uncle Ge could achieve the effect of winning applause in the courtroom.

Then he said Fu Dalong.

His performance in this movie is not as amazing as Chi Yu's Cheng Dieyi in terms of role, but the performance of the character is not bad at all.

The reporter said: "Teacher Fu Dalong, what do you think is the difference between playing the role of Overlord in a play within a play, and the roles of emperors before you?"

Fu Dalong said: "The only difference is that in "Farewell My Concubine", the Overlord is a fake Overlord. After removing his make-up, he is an ordinary actor who makes a living by singing, just ordinary."

Then another reporter asked Wan Qian: "I also played the brothel girl, how is the brothel girl in this drama different from the other dramas?"

Naturally, Wan Qian didn't mention the previous role, and said, "I like the role of Juxian very much, because she dares to love and hate."

As for Fu Dalong, Wan Qian, Ge You and others, they just told some anecdotes about filming, and then returned to Chi Yu and Chen Wuji.

no way.

For the movie "Farewell My Concubine", Chen Wuji is the director and Chi Yu is the actor.

This result, in the final analysis, is the basis of Li Bihua's original novel.

As mentioned earlier, Li Bihua is the best at writing about women, and can write about women's passion, determination, and paranoia.

And Cheng Dieyi's life is a life of passion, determination and paranoia.

This time, it was Uncle Ge who broke the news: "In the crew, Chi Yu twisted his figure every day, talked delicately, smiled sourly, and acted like a well-trained old actor. We all said in private that he is a Leprechaun."

"Fourth Master, see what you said." At this moment, Chi Yu stretched out his finger, his voice gentle.

"hiss!"

Uncle Ge intentionally pretended to be trembling all over, and said, "Did you hear that? Did you see it? That's it. Tell me, does it look like a goblin?"

"picture!"

The audience below also had goosebumps just now, and after yelling, they all burst into laughter.

Fu Dalong added: "Also, the singing voices of Yu Ji in the movie are all Chi Yu's original voices. There are also those who need a lot of skills, such as the swirling dance and lying fish movement with wide sleeves in the movie, He played it all in one go.”

"That's the boy's skill for beating children." Chi Yu said.

"Chi Yu, come here!" Someone booed from below, it was an old acquaintance.

"one comes!"

So the whole audience was shouting.

Chi Yu pressed his hand, and said helplessly: "I got hurt a while ago when I was filming, and my ribs are slightly cracked, so I can't sing Concubine Yu."

When they want to ask why.

Chi Yu said: "Well, let me give you a part of Si Fan's remembrance from the movie."

"it is good!"

Chi Yu cleared his throat and sang:

"The little nun is twenty-eight years old, just in her youth, and her hair was cut off by the master..."

"I was originally a girl, not a man..."

"Why are you wearing a yellow sash around your waist and wearing a straight gown? Seeing couples slacking off, facing each other in brocade, I can't help feeling anxious..."

"The slave tore the cassock, buried the scriptures, abandoned the wooden fish, and threw away the cymbals..."

"You can't learn from the Rakshasa girl to slay demons, and you can't learn from the Nanhai Moon Avalokitesvara..."

"Good!" The audience below applauded again and again.

"Okay!" The others on the stage also applauded.

This paragraph of chanting is really full of charm, and all the listeners feel it is a kind of enjoyment.

Chen Wuji said at this time: "Chi Yu's opera background has indeed saved a lot of trouble. But these are just basic skills. What impresses me the most about him is that he never misses a single shot at critical moments."

"For example, when Cheng Dieyi was addicted to smoking and Duan Xiaolou came to see him."

Chen Wuji gave an example: "As soon as the machine was turned on, Chi Yu went crazy, hitting the mirror frame on the wall with a stick, and the glass fragments splashed everywhere. When I called to stop, he was already in tears."

"Director Chen, what other details in the movie impressed you deeply?" The reporter asked again.

"There's a detail. It's a scene of descending the steps in the back. When he was walking, Chi Yu stopped suddenly. I thought something was wrong. As a result, he shook his feet there and continued walking forward."

Chen Wuji recalled: "After filming, I found a lot of cinders on the ground. This detail was added temporarily by the actors, but it well showed Cheng Dieyi's cleanliness."

"Not only Chi Yu, but also several other actors, especially Yang Rong. Although there are only a few shots at the beginning, I think her performance is at the textbook level!"

Chen Wuji brought the topic to the actors who didn't have many roles.

Later, the movie's theme song "When Love Is Gone" was released, accompanied by the edited film and some footage of Chi Yu in the recording studio. Chi Yu sang it again on the spot.

……

After the conference is over.

It didn't take long for the press release to come out.

The media, as well as the audience, used the word "amazing" the most!
The most emotional thing is that Chen Wuji actually made a nearly perfect movie!

They found that after watching this movie, they couldn't calm down for a long time.

Unlike "The Wandering Earth" at the beginning of the year, which was excited and shocked by the rise of domestic sci-fi movies, they found that "Farewell My Concubine" is definitely a world-class movie in terms of art!
"Chen Wuji not only captures the tragic fate of the characters, but also captures the elegance of the actors! Especially Chi Yu, I found that Chen Wuji may be the director who understands his beauty best!"

"This is, and probably will be, a work that will go down in the history of cinema!"

"Chen Wuji has returned to basics. He didn't show off his skills or show off his inexplicable poetry. On the contrary, he may have made the best movie!"

"It is predicted that "Farewell My Concubine" will sweep all the major awards in the past two years!"

""Farewell My Concubine" has both epic structure and cultural connotation. Against the backdrop of profound Beijing opera art, it shows the multi-faceted and richness of human beings in the face of misplaced roles and disasters..."

"The power of humanity contained in "Farewell My Concubine" and the wonderful performance of the actors conquered most of the audience..."

"The film describes the art of Peking Opera with the deepest cultural heritage in Huaguo and the lives of Peking Opera artists. It delicately shows the thinking and understanding of traditional culture, human living conditions and human nature..."

"Farewell My Concubine tells a story with passion that spans half a century!"

"The film not only has a deep sense of history, but also has a delicate male friendship and an epic pattern. It shows the joys and sorrows of small people mixed with the historical development of China for half a century..."

"In "Farewell My Concubine", the change of the times is closely related to the turning point of the fate of the characters, sociality and nationality are closely linked, belief and reality are closely linked..."

"Chen Wuji said that he wanted to make a story about obsession and betrayal, so he made such a story about a real concubine and a fake overlord. The misplacement of human nature and the impact of disasters have absorbed many aspects and rich drama for the film..."

"Farewell My Concubine is definitely a model for both taste and taste. The film is gorgeous in imagery, delicate in plot, and rich in content."

"Chi Yu's performance is the biggest highlight of the film's performance. With his performance of both form and spirit, he perfectly interprets the role of Cheng Dieyi, who is neither crazy nor alive!"

"This movie will bring Chen Wuji to a new level!"

"At the same time, "Farewell My Concubine" may also bring Chi Yu to a new height!"

"Chi Yu portrayed Cheng Dieyi's psychological state through his eyes and movements, and the audience felt sympathy for Cheng Dieyi's unique psychology under Chi Yu's meticulous interpretation..."

Many reviews are basically positive.

And the evaluation of a certain valve directly came to 9.8 points!
A horrific, not-so-real score.

Although not many people rated it, more than 83% of them gave five-star praise.

15%的人给出了4星好评，3星的评价只有2%不到，而2星和1星的评价人数，更是低到0.1%而已！

At the same time, on Gouyan, the movie has already been pre-sold, scored, and it is also aligned with a certain valve.

Then, the next day, "Farewell My Concubine" released the theme song "When Love is a Past".

Another hot search on the Internet.

Li Zongsheng×Chi Yu!
People exclaimed: "What kind of fairy combination is this?"

They thought that Chi Yu and Mao Buyi's cooperation was outrageous. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, only two or three months later, they cooperated with Li Zongsheng again!
Then they rushed to listen to "When Love Is A Past", and they quickly became addicted to it.

And sighed: "As soon as the master makes a move, he will know if there is any! This song, this word, is absolutely perfect!"

"Oh my god! My music library is not in a hurry yet, has Chi Yu already filled it up?"

"It sounds good, it sounds good!"

"How long has it been since Li Zongsheng wrote a song about love? As soon as he makes a move, he's Wang Zha again!"

"When I listen to this song, what I want to say is: about missing you, you can't escape the night of drinking and singing, but you can't escape the deserted streets..."

"It's tailor-made for me! When I heard this song, I happened to know that my ex-wife remarried. In the end, I couldn't bear the sadness, so I hid in bed and cried alone. Love, I don't dare to love again, it's so hard to love someone It hurts too..."

"I hope you understand my songs, but you don't have to go through as much as I do."

"People who like this song probably have an unconnected person living in their hearts..."

"Haruki Murakami once wrote: I tell you that I love you, not necessarily to be with you, but to hope that you will be in the future. When you are discouraged, remember that someone liked you..."

"Love is separated by mountains and seas, and mountains and seas cannot be leveled."

"Visual observation, this song will soon become the favorite cover of various music variety shows!"

"Haha, be careful with your words!"

"Surprisingly, I found out that after so long, except for the cover song that I sang in the mask, Chi Yu has basically been releasing new songs, although it is a single, although it is a bit slow..."

"It's not that he's slow, he's just not on time, you don't know, one day he suddenly popped out a song without any warning."

Netizens' evaluations are on the music platform and on Chiyu Weibo. After reading it, Su Aifei also thought: "It really should, make an album, right?"

"Mmm." Chi Yu was noncommittal.

"At least, there must be enough songs for a concert, right? Otherwise, with the few songs now, I can't even hold a concert." Su Aifei said with a smile.

Chi Yu thought about it and smiled.

Currently, his songs include "Slow Voice", "Sea of ​​Stars", "One Night in the Capital", "An Ordinary Day", "When Love Is a Past", and there are only five songs!

Even if there are two versions of "Sea of ​​Stars", six songs can't support a concert.

"I'll worry about this. Your current focus is to follow Director Chen to do roadshows and publicity."

Su Aifei said: "Although Director Chen's fame bonus will not be as crazy as Wandering Earth, but now there is only half a month left before the release, so I must not be idle."

"It's okay, after experiencing "The Wandering Earth", I'm already used to this rhythm."

"Pay attention to the injuries on your body, it will be healed soon, if you get bumped again, you will get a second injury."

"Well, I'll pay attention."

"Also, when you pass by Xiangshan, go to Ruobai's crew to visit a class."

"what?"

"Why, don't you want to go?"

"That's not it."

Chi Yu shook his head and said, "Okay, I understand."

After asking Fangyuan to write down what Su Aifei explained, Chi Yu slept at home for another night.

The next day, the road show and publicity tour of "Farewell My Concubine" started.

　And Chapter 3 tonight!Thank you for the monthly pass of Jiyou Wuyu 1! ! !
