The star is legit but sick.

Chapter 658: Every time I get fooled, it’s different

"Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" is an action crime film. Compared with the production cost, the box office of this movie is already very high.

The production cost of the film was only over 10 million yuan, but the box office grossed over 600 million yuan.

Xu Ye didn't just pick a movie for Du Chonglin casually.

Du Chonglin was fine when he was filming TV series, but when it came to making movies, he didn't speak properly and always wanted to do something profound and artistic.

He thought his artistry was as high as a three or four-story building, but to the audience it was all a mirage and could not be seen clearly at all.

The movie "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" is very artistic from the plot setting to the camera language.

If you look at this movie from a logical point of view, you will find many unreasonable things.

But the movie is not just a straightforward story, some shots have deeper meanings.

These places do not affect the audience's understanding of the plot.

This movie is very suitable for a director like Du Chonglin who doesn't speak human language to perform, and it is a perfect opportunity for Du Chonglin to regain his confidence.

As for the last TV series of the five-year plan, Xu Ye plans to shoot it himself.

On the other side, Du Chonglin returned to the hotel.

After opening his laptop, he washed his hands before opening the movie script.

He was still on the way back in the car and hadn't had time to read the script, so now is a good time for him to take a closer look.

Du Chonglin also recalled the story of Zhou Chu eliminating three evils.

This is a story from "Book of Jin: Biography of Zhou Chu" and "A New Account of Tales of the World".

It is said that at that time there was a man named Zhou Chu, who was tall and strong, had great physical strength and was skilled in martial arts, but he bullied people everywhere. The villagers called him, the tiger of Nanshan and the dragon of Xihu the three evils of Yangxian City.

When this story reached Zhou Chu, he knew that he was hated by everyone, and suddenly repented. He went down the mountain alone to shoot the tiger and went into the water to fight the dragon. After a lot of hard work, he killed the tiger and the dragon, and turned over a new leaf.

In Yangxian City, all three evils were eliminated.

Du Chonglin had seen this story before.

"Is it about Zhou Chu?"

Du Chonglin opened the script and began to read.

After reading the text, he realized that this was not Zhou Chu's story, but a modern story.

A modern story of Zhou Chu eliminating three evils.

The protagonist Chen Guilin learns that he is suffering from advanced lung cancer and will not live long. He wants to leave a name for himself after his death. After discovering that he is ranked third on the wanted list, he decides to kill the first two criminals on the wanted list.

This process is also the transformation process of Chen Guilin himself.

When Du Chonglin saw the wonderful part, he said excitedly: "Awesome, this is really well written!"

When Chen Guilin finally beat the last criminal to death and executed the bad guys in the spiritual center, Du Chonglin felt very satisfied.

Just one word, awesome!

He could already imagine how exciting it would be to shoot this scene on the set.

It’s just that some shots are difficult to shoot, otherwise they won’t pass the review.

After reading the entire script, Du Chonglin exclaimed: "Isn't this the kind of movie I want to make?"

Xu Ye’s movies have always been comedies, which makes many people forget that Xu Ye is not only good at writing comedies.

Some people on the Internet complained that Xu Ye was not enterprising and only knew how to stay in his comfort zone and was afraid to come out.

You make comedy films which are high in box office, but haters say you can only make comedy films.

If you fail in other genres, the haters will say that your skills are not good enough.

No matter what you do, there will always be a reason to criticize.

Du Chonglin chuckled: "Leave it to me to save Xu Ye's reputation. This movie will let everyone see Xu Ye's strength in other subjects."

He was very interested in the book "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils".

But he kept in mind what Xu Ye told him, health is important.

He also took this opportunity to look for suitable actors and arrange schedules.

On the other side, Xu Ye arranged some work for the studio employees and went to Beijing.

This year's Spring Festival Gala is about to begin.

In this Spring Festival Gala, in addition to two sketches, he also prepared a new song for the energetic girls, and he will also sing a song on the Spring Festival Gala.

The Internet has been filled with news about the Spring Festival Gala, Spring Festival, holidays, annual meetings, etc. these days.

Now at this time every year, even if Xu Ye does nothing, he will occasionally be on the hot search list.

At a company's annual meeting, employees sang Xu Ye's children's songs, a boss almost fainted while singing "A Man Should Be Self-reliant", and there were also Xu Ye's New Year's hits in the supermarket.

Also on the hot search list is the topic "Did Xu Ye say congratulations on your prosperity today?"

Many singers envy this kind of presence.

Spring Festival songs are common, but Spring Festival golden songs are not common.

In fact, every year during the Spring Festival, some new songs related to the Spring Festival are born, but few are as popular as "Gong Xi Fa Cai".

Many stupid netizens have lost interest in work and the time they spend surfing the Internet has increased significantly.

"By the way, what song will Xu Ye sing for us this year?"

"I haven't heard that Xu Ye will participate in the Spring Festival Gala program review?"

"Is Xu Ye not participating in the Spring Festival Gala this year?"

Netizens are also discussing it online.

What everyone doesn’t know is that Xu Ye’s show this year does not need to go through the regular review channel like other actors.

His show has been reviewed.

The song he chose was one that was directly approved by the Spring Festival Gala director team after reading the lyrics.

Review?

What a joke, if this song is not approved, it will definitely be a walking dead!
The songs Xu Ye sang this year are different from those in the previous two years. This year he wanted to be more solemn. After all, this year is 2019 in the world.

As for the cheerful songs, he gave them to the energetic girl.

It’s time to give these energetic girls a Spring Festival golden song.

When Xu Ye arrived in Beijing, the energetic girl's nanny car was already waiting for him outside the high-speed rail station.

After Xu Ye got on the car, the energetic girls said in unison: "Welcome Mr. Xu to Beijing to inspect our work!"

This is called emotional value.

It is actually quite difficult for a girl group to perform on the Spring Festival Gala consecutively, as they need to have suitable programs.

Last year, the Energetic Girls performed on the Spring Festival Gala with "Chinese". Everyone thought they had no chance this year, but unexpectedly Xu Ye wrote another song for them, helping them enter this year's Spring Festival Gala.

The energetic girls have always given Xu Ye the maximum emotional value.

After Xu Ye sat down, he took out a bag from his bag. "I brought you some gifts."

He took out a lipstick from the bag and handed it to Xie Qiong.

"For you."

Xie Qiong immediately said: "Thank you Xu Da!"

Then Xu Ye took out another lipstick and handed it to Xuanxuan.

Xuanxuan was a little surprised and said, "I have it too?"

"Then I'll take it." Xu Ye said.

Xuanxuan quickly took the lipstick and said, "No, no, no."

By the end, the other five people had got it, and only Xiao Xu was left without it.

Xu Ye reached into his bag and said helplessly, "It's gone."

Xiao Xu had a resentful expression. He stared at Xu Ye without saying a word, as if he was about to cry.

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

At this time, Xie Qiong asked in confusion: "Xu Da, why can't you put on this lipstick?"

Xu Ye said: "Press your thumb on it and press down."

Xie Qiong looked confused, grabbed it with her hand, and pressed her thumb on the top of the lipstick.

A click!
The top of the lipstick was opened and a small flame popped out.

The moment the flame lit up, Xie Qiong's pupils contracted.

Several other people also tried it and all of them produced sparks.

The carriage became even quieter.

After a few seconds of silence, Xuanxuan said, "I was wondering why you took the high-speed train here. You can't bring a lighter on the plane, right?"

Xu Ye asked: "Don't you like it?"

Xie Qiong and others rolled their eyes and couldn't hold it in any longer.

The mistake was that they actually thought Xu Ye could give them something good!

Xu Ye is just that kind of person, what else can I say?

However, Xiao Xu's expression was obviously much happier.

At this time, Xu Ye took out a jewelry box from the bag.

"Don't be sad, how could I not prepare a gift for you."

When the other girls saw the jewelry box, they all gasped.

Even if what they hold in their hands is lipstick, it is not as good as jewelry.

Sure enough, different identities require different gifts.

Xiao Xu took the jewelry box and said with a smile: "Thank you!"

"Open it and take a look." Xu Ye said.

The girl in the back row also came over.

Xiao Xu slowly opened the jewelry box, revealing what was inside.

There was a golden object about the size of a thumb inside.

There was a look of doubt in Xiao Xu's eyes.

She picked it up and asked, "Why is it so light?"

She turned it and took a look, and saw that the gold surface of the thing had peeled off, revealing the chocolate color inside.

This isn't chocolate color; this is chocolate.

The expression on Xiao Xu's face suddenly froze.

She looked at Xu Ye: "Isn't this just chocolate?"

Xu Ye smiled and said, "Why don't you bite it open and see?"

Xiao Xu showed hope again when she heard that. She tore off the golden wrapping paper and bit open the chocolate, but there was still nothing inside.

Xiao Xu stared at Xu Ye with resentful eyes and said, "Even if you bite it open, there's nothing!"

Xu Ye didn't care: "I didn't say it would appear if you bite it open."

"You die!"

Xiao Xu immediately used her unintimidating cute girl turtle punch on Xu Ye.

If you say Xu Ye did something wrong, he really did nothing wrong.

This is not the first time he has done this, and the energetic girls are fooled every time, but it’s always different.

The energetic girls said: "We will never believe Xu Ye's lies about sending gifts again!"

As long as you don’t want to take advantage, you won’t be deceived!
After Xu Ye put down his luggage, he went to meet Mo Xincheng and others and went over both skits.

Both Mo Xincheng and Shi Peijuan are veteran actors, so their acting skills are naturally impeccable.

As for Zheng Yu and Xu Mei, they had more time and had almost finished rehearsing the sketch "Should I Help or Not?"

As for Xu Ye, he was just an acting partner in the film.

The rehearsal of skits is relatively time-consuming, but fortunately everyone is experienced and we completed both skits smoothly.

Time quickly arrived and it was New Year's Eve.

On the last day, all programs and performance order of the Spring Festival Gala were finalized, and the program list of the Spring Festival Gala was officially announced.

Language programs have always been a type of program that netizens pay more attention to.

When everyone saw the names of Mo Xincheng and Shi Peijuan, they were a little bit unbelievable.

When everyone looked further back, they found that the third person's name was Xu Ye.

"Mo Xincheng and Shi Peijuan are coming out to perform a skit!"

"The dean is here too!"

Everyone continued to read and soon saw the names of Zheng Yu and Xu Mei, followed by Xu Ye's name.

"Ah? The dean is actually going to perform two skits?"

"By the way, who are Zheng Yu and Xu Mei?"

"They are the main actors of Charlotte's Troubles. They also started out as skit actors. The movie will be released tomorrow."

For a while, the whole Internet was discussing this matter.

When everyone saw that Xu Ye also had a singing program, they were completely stunned.

Xu Ye alone, three shows!
