The Wind of China Entertainment 2005

Chapter 512 Sweeping
"Clap clap clap!"

There was thunderous applause at the scene. The two parties looked at each other and stood up.

Lu Yuan was dressed in a neat black suit, and his every move showed his elegance and refinement.

Liu Shishi was wearing a light blue long skirt, the hem of which looked like blooming flowers. Her every frown and smile was radiant.

The two held hands and slowly walked up the stairs.

What a pair of dogs that make people envious, jealous and hate them, many colleagues in the audience said angrily in their hearts.

In fact, some people in the industry who were present today were resentful of Lu Yuan because this man indirectly destroyed their jobs.

Originally, the costume drama market was on the verge of recovery in 2010 and the situation was very good.

Unexpectedly, this god who was so successful in the serious drama circle suddenly came down to earth to film a costume drama, and it was a time-travel drama.

Just take the photos. They were quite happy at first.

Look, the King of Spy Wars and the top young actor in mainland China are both filming a costume time-travel drama, which shows that this type of subject matter has a promising future. There will be more film appointments next year, and it will be easier to make money.

This is indeed the case. In 2011, many costume dramas were filmed, and fights broke out among the Hengdian crew over competing for locations.

But success and failure are both due to Lu Yuan.

At the beginning of the year, the ratings and online popularity of "Startling by Each Step" starring this guy continued to rise, which directly led to unprecedented enthusiasm in the market for costume dramas and time-travel dramas.

There were countless followers, and palace dramas reflecting the grievances and intrigues in the harem began to appear on a large scale.

However, the good times did not last long. Many well-known scholars publicly criticized time-travel dramas for disrespecting history, being too casual in treating historical culture, and failing to fulfill the role of historical inheritance.

I think the overall ideological connotation has not been improved, the content is empty, it is just fun, beautiful, novel, weird, and the character settings are unrealistic, and the IQ is not like that of normal people.
So after discussion, the Radio, Film and Television Bureau issued a ban a few days ago, on January 2012, 1.

Content of the ban: From January 2012, 1, all satellite TV channels are not allowed to broadcast palace fighting dramas and time-travel dramas during prime time. Before October 1, no approval will be accepted for the establishment of projects for palace fighting dramas, time-travel dramas and other series.

At the same time, provincial satellite TV stations are required to increase the proportion of modern dramas broadcast, reaching more than 2013% by 40.

This is called the Palace Limit Order.

Therefore, the time-travel dramas and palace fighting dramas that were popular for a year disappeared from the ranks of the opening dramas of 2012.

On New Year's Eve alone, new dramas were aired on various satellite TV channels, and most of them seemed "upright", in line with the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television's repeated emphasis on the need to guard against excessive entertainment in TV dramas.

In other words, because "Startling by Each Step" starring Lu was so popular, there were too many followers in the market, the quality was uneven, there were countless shoddy products, experts and scholars boycotted it, so the Radio, Film and Television Bureau simply cut the Gordian knot.

You are just messing around, right? Stop filming.

For most artists, the drama circle is too high-end and they cannot get in. They can only shoot costume dramas and modern idol dramas. Now, one of the tracks has been inexplicably reduced.

It’s all Lu Yuan’s fault.

Colleagues were indignant but also envious.

Damn, it’s really awesome!

Fortunately, this beast has now turned to the big screen to cause trouble.

"Our Shishi is so beautiful today."

On the stage, Xie Na held up the microphone, looked at the two people's clasped hands, and made a joke.

"The two of you are so close now that I can't help but think of one word: inseparable. Even when they went on stage to receive the award, they were reluctant to let go of each other's hands."

Liu Shishi has a low sense of laughter and subconsciously covered her mouth while shaking her hands wildly, but unfortunately Lu Yuan refused to let go.

"Hahaha." Yu Dong, Huang Xiaoming and others in the audience laughed when they saw this.

Compared to Xie Na's carefree attitude, another host Liang Yongbin is much more reserved.

At Weibo Night, how to arrange seats for artists is a very particular matter, which directly reflects their respective status in the industry.

The first row is centered around Lu Yuan.

On the left are industry capital giants, such as Sina CEO and President Cao Guowei, Bona Yu Dong, Huayi Wang Zhonglei, or other influential media and business leaders.

On the right side, there are all top-tier celebrities, well-known artists and singers, such as the new top-tier actress Liu Shishi, as well as film queens Li Bingbing, Huang Lei, Wang Feng, etc.

Not only that, Liang Yongbin also discovered something interesting.

Before the party started, everyone took their seats. Yu Dong and Cao Guowei talked with Lu Yuan, smiling and unusually kind, which was obviously not the attitude that a normal entrepreneur should have towards a celebrity.

They are like the same kind of people, and on the same level.

Combined with the rehearsal content, Liang Yongbin was horrified.

Thinking of this, he continued, "I want to congratulate Lu Yuan here. In addition to winning our Weibo KING, he also found a partner to stay with him this year."

"Congratulations!" Xie Na followed suit.

"Let us give our applause to you two again," said Liang Yongbin.

"Clap clap clap."

Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi stood in the center of the stage, raised the trophies in their hands, and gestured slightly towards the guest seats.

"Please invite Mr. Cao Guowei, Chairman and CEO of Sina Group, to come on stage, present flowers to the two and express congratulations."

Cao Guowei took the flowers from the etiquette lady behind the two men and handed them to them respectively.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you."

"Take a photo together."

Lu Yuan and Cao Guowei declined each other, and finally Miss Liu stood between the three of them like a tool.

"Click!" The photographers in the audience pressed the shutter button one after another.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Cao." Cao Guowei stepped down from the stage.

"It's an exciting moment, a dreamlike moment, please share your feelings with us." Xie Na handed over the microphone.

"Ladies first." Lu Yuan stretched out his hand.

Liu Shishi stepped forward and said brightly, "I am very happy. First of all, I would like to thank Sina Weibo for its recognition. I would also like to thank the audience in front of the screen for their love and support. Thank you everyone. I hope to bring better works next year and live up to everyone's expectations."

"Clap clap clap."

"Lu Yuan!"

Lu Yuan took the microphone from the host Liang Yongbin and said, "As the host said, 2011 is of great significance to me. This year, I met the right person."

"So on the night of May 520, Weibo's server crashed because of you two." Xie Na replied suddenly.

"Pfft, hahaha!" The audience burst into laughter.

The camera focused on Liu Shishi's face. Miss Liu blushed and turned her head to look. In her eyes, there was only him.

"Server downtime is not necessarily a bad thing."

Lu Yuan smiled and said to the guests: "Mr. Cao, have you noticed that many netizens have praised Weibo for running more smoothly since then?"

"Hahaha."

Cao Guowei's face appeared in the camera, glowing with joy.

After the laughter subsided, Lu Yuan said something polite: "Thank you for Sina's recognition and the audience's support."

Having said that, it’s time to promote the film.

Xie Na brought up the topic: "We know that Lu Yuan's first self-directed and self-acted work, Time Travelers, will be released soon. It is also Shi Shi's first big-screen movie. By the way, what is the specific release date?"

"February 2th, Valentine's Day!" Liu Shishi replied with a smile.

"February 2th." Xie Na repeated, and said with a stern face: "Everyone in front of the screen, go and watch it."

She said to herself again: "Valentine's Day, the name also contains the word cohabitation, so it's a love theme."

"A fantasy love story." Lu Yuan explained.

Xie Na nodded and asked Miss Liu again: "Shi Shi, what role do you play in the play?"

"An older young woman who had a failed blind date." Liu Shishi said, looking to the side: "Then she met him."

"Oh, I roughly know what will happen next, sweet love." Xie Na nodded seriously.

Liu Shishi blinked her eyes and lied without thinking: "I guess so."

It's impossible for it to be sweet. Most of the TV series and movies starring Liu ended in tragedy. "Out of Time" is no exception. The stinky man spent millions to create a special effect of the collapse of the world where the heroine lives.

Liang Yongbin showed curiosity on his face: "I heard that Director Lu Yuan was very strict on the set?"

"Yes, he is very strict."

Liu Shishi said: "Whenever he sits in front of the monitor, he is in a different state. I had to shoot a scene 87 times. I was so tired after finishing it that I didn't feel well at night. I even caught a cold the next day. Fortunately, there was no scene to shoot that day."

"87 times!" Although she had rehearsed the lyrics in advance, Xie Na was still stunned.

"Director Lu, filming is important, but how can you treat your girlfriend like this? Shishi is so tired that she has a cold."

"Yes, it was really tiring to do it 87 times. But she still had the energy to buy ice cream after work and ate four at a time. As a result, she felt uncomfortable in the middle of the night, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. She couldn't get up in the morning. She asked the medical staff to check, and found out that she had a cold. I don't know if uncle and aunt are watching the live broadcast at this moment." Lu Yuan's voice came slowly.

"Pfft, hahaha."

The audience was all laughing. Liu Shishi was exposed, and she hung her head cutely, feeling very embarrassed. Seeing that the time was almost up, Xie Na urged, "Director Lu Yuan, Shishi must have suffered a lot of grievances in the crew. In this way, in front of everyone, you can appease your girlfriend and let this matter pass."

"Shishi, what do you say?"

"Okay!" Liu Shishi became excited and joined in the fun.

"I want to know what's wrong with you. You're always trying to be mean and are working with others to hurt me." Lu Yuan was surprised.

Liu Shishi was shocked: "Nonsense, how did I hurt you?"

"You made me like you so much." Lu Yuan tilted his head upward and looked diagonally upward.

At this moment, he used all his strength to win the Best Actor Grand Slam and faced the camera without feeling embarrassed at all.

"Oh~" There was booing from the audience.

Liu Shishi smiled sweetly and said as if no one was around: "Then do you know why I caught a cold that day?"

"Caught a cold from eating ice cream?"

"No, because I have absolutely no resistance to you."

"Ugh" Lu Yuan said with disgust, and then was strangled.

If this crappy propaganda fails to achieve the expected effect, Zhang Wenbo will be in trouble.

"Congratulations again to our Queen and King. Please take your seats."

After the party, Lu Yuan accepted an exclusive interview with a Sina reporter.

The reporter seemed to be a familiar face, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

Inside the interview room, the camera was set up and the two sat down face to face.

"It's time to start."

"it is good."

The reporter first gave his blessing: "Lu Yuan, I hope that "Time Travel Together" will be a big hit at the box office."

"Thank you for your kind words."

The reporter asked again: "Why did you choose to be a director?"

“It’s an old topic.”

Lu Yuan sat on the sofa, leaning back slightly, relaxed, and said, "In fact, I have always positioned myself as an actor. The reason why I became a director is due to an impulse of self-expression. To be honest, after filming "Out of Time", I developed a sense of awe for making movies. In the field of directing, I am still just a toddler."

“What was it like being a director for the first time?”

“It’s very tiring, but every industry has its own difficulties, which is not worth a long discussion. It’s just that when I was on the set, maybe because it was my first time directing, I liked to do a lot of things myself, for example, I shot a trailer shot, which will not be used in the film.

After the crew finished filming and discussed the subsequent publicity, when I communicated with the studio marketing team, many people asked, "Director, are you also in charge of this?" I was very confused. Don't other directors do this? They said, "No." I asked, "You don't even care about the trailer?" They said, "Yes, I leave it to others to edit."

I realized then that I thought these things should be done by the director, but it turned out that it was not the director who did the extra work. "

“So after this play, no matter what the results are, will you continue to be a director?”

"It's hard to say, at least not in the short term. I need to recharge myself. The studio has signed a new director, so maybe I will try to be a producer."

The reporter changed the subject: "It seems that since the end of last year, it has not been difficult for Chinese-language films to break the 21.7 million yuan box office. Data shows that the average age of Chinese moviegoers is now years old. The audience has become younger, but the concepts of some big directors have not changed. The previous generation was short of material resources and naturally faced the limits of survival, while the current generation is more faced with inner struggles. What do you think about this?"

"As an art form that can be spread, good films are those that can find common themes in human nature. Each generation has its own responsibilities. The older generation of directors' adherence to film culture and their bearing of culture in films are worth learning from. The market is huge, and good works will never lack audiences."

"Do you have any expectations for the box office of Out of Time?"

"Of course, it would be a bit hypocritical to say that I have no expectations. The higher the box office, the better."

Lu Yuan put down the hand that was supporting his jaw and said, "I have gone through so much hardship to shoot a movie with you all. If the box office is not good, I will feel very sorry for you all and the fan community, because it means the quality of the movie is not good."

"Will you still make TV series? Another way to put it is, will you pay more attention to movies instead of TV series in the future?"

“This is a question I have answered many times.”

Lu Yuan said frankly: "I now feel that whether it is a movie, TV series, stage play, or even an online drama, the form is not important. What is more important is what the script expresses. If I resonate with it, I will participate."

While Lu Yuan was being interviewed, the conversation between the two on the podium quickly became popular with the official promotion of Weibo.

Weibo immediately set up a special topic area.

#《Super Time and Space Cohabitation》Love Words Challenge#
The first one below the topic is a 15-second video clip of Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi’s conversation at Weibo Night.

On June 2011, 6, Weibo launched a new feature, which allows the client to support uploading videos with a maximum length of 11 seconds.

"Fuck, what did I see? Boss, have you been threatened by Liu Shishi? If you are threatened, just blink. I...I will play it several times."

"Oh my god, why do I like you so much? It feels so rustic and exciting."

"Shishi is so cute, she got angry and embarrassed when she was despised."

"You can play with love words like this. My boyfriend just confessed to me yesterday. He said, if there is an afterlife, let's be a pair of little mice. Love each other stupidly, live life stupidly, cuddle up stupidly, and be together stupidly. Even if the mountain is covered with snow, I can still nestle in the haystack and hug you tightly and bite your ears. No, I regret it. Let him think again and send it again."

"My boyfriend is like this: You are the sun in the sky, and I am the mountain on the ground. You are the moon in the sky, and I am the ocean on the ground. You are the crow in the sky flying and flying, and I am the dog on the ground chasing and chasing."

"Sisters, look at what my boyfriend posted: You are the bread when I am hungry, you are the fruit knife I use to commit suicide, you are my heart, you are my liver, you are three quarters of my life!"

"Upstairs, my boyfriend also posted this."

"Ditto."

"+1."

"mine too."

"They're all the same sentence structure. It turns out everyone's boyfriends are the same. These bastards just copied them all from the internet!!"

This night, countless couples are going to have sex.

Zhang Wenbo followed up immediately, and the official account of the "Out of Time" crew posted a love clip that Lu Yuan and Liu Shishi had filmed in advance in the topic.

In the video.

Liu Shishi rubbed his eyes and said, "Come and see what's going on. It seems like something got stuck in there."

"Huh? No." Lu Yuan moved closer and grabbed it twice.

Liu Shishi said playfully, "Nonsense, there's obviously someone I like in there."

As soon as the video came out, netizens were very excited, and the good luck seemed to be swiped without any traffic.

At the same time, a large number of big V Weibo accounts began to become active, and content related to the topic was rapidly promoted.

Not only that, many celebrities in the industry were invited to participate.

Huang Xiaoming released a video.

In the video, the leader is wearing a white dress, holding a red rose in her hand, and smiling wickedly: "Baby, do you know what I want to drink now?"

Yang Ying shook her head in a pretentious manner: "I don't know."

Huang Xiaoming bit the red rose in his mouth, stretched out his hand, and domineering CEO style wall-dong, confident and greasy: "I want to take care of you."

Netizen: "."

Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin.

In the video, Zhu Yawen was sitting on a chair, and Luo Jin and Tang Yan approached quietly and asked, "Do you know which door is the happiest in the world?"

Zhu Yawen looked up blankly: "What?"

Luo Jin hugged Tang Yan and raised his chin: "It's us."

Tang Yan leaned shyly in his arms and drew circles.

Zhu Yawen's expression suddenly became dull.

Netizen: "."

Text version posted by Hu Can and Yuan Hong.

Hu Chuan: "Do you smell anything?"

Yuan Hong: “No.”

Hu Chuan: "If there is none, then there is none. I sent it to the wrong person!"

Yuan Hong: “.”

Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang, Song Jia, Hai Qing, Zhang Jiayi, Qin Hailu and others also appeared on stage to support.

If you have a partner, look for a partner; if you don’t have a partner, look for a brother.

It can be called an all-star collection of love words.

There were also many actors who had worked with Lu Yuan, but because Zhang Wenbo’s team had limited ideas for love words before, they were not on the invitation list and could only figure it out on their own.

Compared with the imagination of many netizens, the power of the publicity team is minimal.

But the teacher said that a single spark can start a prairie fire. This kind of earthy love talk is very easy to spread, and once netizens discover it, they will never get tired of it.

Overnight, fueled by Weibo, the "Super Time and Space" love talk challenge began to sweep the Internet and seep into real life.
