China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

In 2012, New Year's Eve and Spring Festival come much earlier than in previous years, and the New Year will be celebrated on January 1.

He Hua took advantage of the fact that the crew of "To Youth" had not yet disbanded and took the time to visit the crew. In fact, visiting the crew and visiting his girlfriend were secondary. What was important was to go and see the specific shooting conditions of the crew. The two newbies were really not very impressive. Don’t worry, if there are any problems in the process, they can be corrected in time.

The New Year is always very busy. He Hua's calls have not stopped since the plane landed and he turned on his mobile phone. When he saw his girlfriend's assistant Xinxin who came to pick them up, he just waved and continued to chat with the other end of the phone:
"Look what you said. After the year, I will visit you and give you a detailed report."

"Happy New Year to the leader. Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone, He Hua pinched the corners of his eyes that were a little sore after waking up from a deep sleep.

The person I just called was a leader from the General Administration, and they were talking about "囧囧". There is expected to be a seminar after the year, and he called He Hua and Xu Zheng in advance to make preparations.

Although the total results have not yet been released, it is an indisputable fact that it has set a new box office record for Chinese-language films. This kind of achievement is destined to be praised by the General Administration, otherwise how can it prove that they have done something good.

He Hua looked through the car window at NJ City, which was about to celebrate the New Year. He felt that it was still quite atmospheric. At least there were a lot of various lanterns hanging, which should look good at night.

"Have you found anything delicious or fun after staying here for so long?"

Xinxin grimaced: "We rarely go out. It's near the university town. The duck blood vermicelli soup and duck sesame cakes there are pretty good."

This life is very boring.

He Hua turned around and told Xiao Xu: "In the past two days, ask the locals about what good specialties are available here for the New Year. You go and buy some. Then the crew will have one for each person, and prepare some to take home as gifts." people."

"Ok."

Xinxin quickly wrote this down secretly. She felt that this was what her boss should learn, instead of settling accounts every day.

Arriving at the set of "Youth", Liu Xiaoli knew that He Hua was coming, so she had someone prepare hot milk tea in advance and asked everyone to get it when He Hua arrived.

He Hua turned around first, and then met Liu Yifei and Su Lun.

He took his girlfriend's hand and squeezed it slightly, then turned to Su Lun and said:
"Continue shooting, don't delay the progress just because I'm here."

"Just let me see your level."

For Su Lun, He Hua was not only an investor and boss, but also her senior and leader, so she didn't feel wrong at all when He Hua said this. Instead, she felt a little trembling, as if her graduation thesis was waiting for review by her tutor.

Behind the monitor, the assistant director immediately moved a few stools, including assistant Xiao Xu.

As the play was being prepared, He Hua whispered to his girlfriend: "Are you going to sit here with me and watch?"

"I still have something to do over there, so you can take care of it first. I'll come back to you later."

"Okay, then you go to work first."

Liu Yifei was a little reluctant to part ways after they had just met, but there was no point in wasting her time here. She might as well finish the work at hand first and spend more time with him in the evening.

After Liu Yifei left, He Hua stood beside Su Lun and watched her filming quietly. Even if he found a problem in the process, he didn't remind her. He didn't speak until the end of the afternoon filming:
"Your choice of highlights and improvement of color levels are probably to adjust the picture curve in the later stage."

Su Lun quickly responded: "Yes, we want to differentiate between the campus stage and the society. We use warm yellow and soft tones in the front to give it a nostalgic and retro feel. In addition,"

"We also wanted to have some literary and artistic atmosphere, so we added some green to the highlights and a bit of cyan to the shadows to make it more saturated, and the overall tone was bluish."

He Hua quickly understood Su Lun's intention, which was to make the movie more dreamy and artistic.

These images may be more attractive to young people. After all, this is a film about youth pain, and its selling point and audience are obvious.

However, He Hua still pointed out some of her problems:
"You have to pay attention to whether the character's skin color is coordinated with the picture after the post-filter rendering. In addition, I just read your storyboard script. The narrative is a bit confusing and the plot has some jumps. You should pay attention to it when editing later."

Of course, this latter matter cannot be solved by her alone. She needs to get the screenwriter to discuss how to make the transition of the plot smoother.

After saying that, He Hua stood up, and Su Lun followed suit: "Okay, I'll meet Jingjing and the others again during the Chinese New Year."

The two of them walked outside, helping them organize their thoughts as they walked:

"Sometimes the characters don't need to be explained in such detail. Appropriate blank space will give the audience more room for imagination. The female characters stand out, but the male characters are a bit thin. Your screenwriting team can also recruit some male screenwriters."

When he walked out, many people greeted He Hua. Wang Kai, Zhu Yilong, Dai Xu, and Bai Yu were all very familiar with him.

Chen Xiao had already finished filming his scenes and ran away.

"Let's have dinner together in the evening, find a better restaurant, and the crew will go wherever they have nothing to do."

"Okay!" Several people were happy.

At the wine table in the evening, the actresses from the crew greeted He Hua one after another:

"Hello, Director He, I am Wan Qian. This is our first meeting. I would like to propose a toast to you."

"Director He, I am Wang Likun, and I would like to toast you too."

"Director He, I am Zhang Yao, you can do whatever you want with me."

Wait, wait, what are you doing?My girlfriend is still here.But when I turned around, I saw Liu Yifei with a smile on her face, and she kept pushing Jiao Junyan forward.
"He Dao"

Jiao Junyan just stood up and called out before being interrupted by He Hua: "Forget it, this is not the first time we have met."

"What's going on with you guys? Look at these girls. Why don't you give us Director Su and Producer Liu a toast!"

"Yes, you should respect me" "I'll do it"

The scene was full of hilarity.
In the hotel room at night, with continuous exclamations, He Hua also announced that he would withdraw his troops.

"Have you not eaten well recently? You feel like you have lost a lot of weight." His right hand habitually rested on his girlfriend's soft waist.

Liu Yifei lazily rested her head on her boyfriend's shoulder:
"There are many and complicated things, and my brain is not good, so I can only spend more time."

Well, she still doesn’t know how to be a good producer. What a good producer has to do is to coordinate the overall situation and connect and knead the entire crew together, including project establishment, preliminary preparation, crew shooting, post-production, etc. Promote the issuance so that every stage can proceed smoothly, rather than focusing on small issues such as capital accounting and financial review.

He Hua thought that during the Spring Festival, Huang Lan could teach his girlfriend a lesson. If she continued to be so tired, she would probably be second to Chen Hong.

Thinking about how beautiful Chen Hong was before, Chang'e in "Spring Scenery" was really a peerless girl. After following Kai Ge, she became more and more unsound.

He absolutely didn't believe the reason why he didn't worry too much about Kai Ge.He Hua didn't want this. Of course, the two of them would get better and better together. If they went back further, they might as well be alone.

"By the way, Changchang said I wanted to treat you to a meal, and I want to thank you."

"No need, the final selection was due to her strength and has nothing to do with me."

The two were talking about He Hua recommending Shu Chang to audition for the female lead role in "Battle of Changsha" some time ago.

If Liu Yifei used to think that this kind of audition was a competition of her acting skills, she no longer thinks so: "That's different. Without you talking, they would never think of asking for advice. They should thank you."

"It's you who should thank me. I don't care about your face." He Hua touched his girlfriend's forehead with his lips.

Liu Yifei opened her eyes and looked up at him: "What do you want to do again?"

"You understand me so well" He Hua whispered into her ear.

"No, it's so dirty there, I won't come."

“There is a non-dirty way”

"Oh, don't listen. I'm going to take a shower."

After staying in NJ for two days, after the crew of "To Youth" was temporarily disbanded, He Hua accompanied Liu Yifei and her daughter back to BJ.

On the way Liu Xiaoli asked: "Are your parents already here?"

"They came here to stay for a while some time ago, and then went back a few years ago."

Liu Xiaoli was puzzled: "Why are you going back again? Aren't you going to celebrate the New Year at BJ this year?"

Speaking of this, He Hua was also helpless, but he also understood that He's father and mother had been coming here to celebrate the New Year in order to accommodate him over the years. But after all, his hometown is the place where he has lived for most of his life, and his living habits and friends have all made him uncomfortable. They miss spending the New Year in their hometown very much.

I haven’t seen my grandma refuse to come over in the past two years. She just isn’t used to it, so this year they decided to celebrate the New Year in their hometown.

"Well, I booked a flight for New Year's Eve. I will stay home for a few days and then come back." He Hua looked at Liu Yifei with an apologetic look.

However, Liu Yifei was only unhappy for a moment, and soon became full of energy, which made him baffled.

Only when He Hua was separated from others on the plane did he know what Liu Yifei had planned:
"How about I go find you in the second grade of junior high school? I haven't been to your hometown yet."

He Hua was a little surprised: "Of course I have no problem, but where is your mother?"

This is a piece of cake for Liu Yifei. She is full of confidence: "Don't worry, I will take care of it. I will call you when the time comes and you will pick me up."

The new year will come soon.

He Hua also returned to the small county town in his hometown.

Not to mention, it’s been a long time since I’ve been back, and it feels so homely when I come back, even the smell of burning coal in the air is homely.

"Ahem.Tui"

There are also various delicacies that he has been familiar with since he was a child. Zhaocheng pig head meat is paired with the unique millet vinegar from his hometown. It is so authentic. There are also beef meatball noodles. He made a big bowl of it as soon as he got off the plane. One portion of meatballs and two portions of meat!

Of course it would be nice if there weren't so many people at home.

The house in He Hua's hometown has been renovated. It is a three-story small foreign-style building. The first floor is mainly the living room, kitchen, cloakroom, storage room, study room and the elderly's room.

The living room is very large, and the sofa and tea seat can easily accommodate a dozen or 20 people, but it cannot accommodate the constant stream of people who come to the door. County leaders, neighbors, and relatives who are far away from home come to hear the news, and they are very troubled. So annoying.

It happened that his girlfriend arrived in the third grade of junior high school, and He Hua drove her around in Dad He's car.

During the day, I took her to eat special snacks and visit scenic spots, such as Wang Family Courtyard, Qiao Family Courtyard, Imperial City Prime Minister's Mansion, Hukou Waterfall, etc. In the evening, I played cards and mahjong at home, and I had a good time.

They played until the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and the two of them returned after being called by all kinds of people and things.

There have been no shortage of reports about them in China during this period.

In addition to being exposed to the news that they went to the husband's house to celebrate the New Year together and being encountered by fans at the scenic spot, which caused a certain impact, the most important thing is that the box office results of "Thailand" in the fourth week have been released.

Because this week covers New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day, and these are the days when people are willing to spend money to watch movies, this has further boosted the box office success of "囧囧". After all, on these days, everyone I still like to see something festive.So the movie directly delivered a jaw-dropping answer.

This week, it took in a box office of 2.01 million, which is just over 1000 million short of surpassing the third week's results, bucking the trend and rising, which is simply unbelievable.

Although "Mission: Impossible 4", which was just released a year ago, did well, it really didn't hinder "囧".

As of now, "囧" has been released for 24 days, with a cumulative box office of 9.72 million, and is heading towards a record of 3 billion, or even 11 billion for "Transformers [-]".

Even the media published the headline 'Don't let Hollywood movies dominate'.

Of course, achieving such good results is inseparable from the publicity behind it.

In addition to investing real money in publicity, Xu Zheng and his two brothers did not rest during the entire New Year period. They still flew around major cities, determined not to let go of any potential ticket holder.

Baoqiang's hometown, Xingtai, Hebei, and Huang Bo's hometown, Qingdao, Shandong, both went to mobilize.

But they are also tired and happy. After "囧囧" came out, they really rose to the top. They were directly promoted from the small and famous second-tier actors to the top first-tier actors. They were very popular. They were so popular. There were screams everywhere and countless people were following him.

Even the news that Zhang Mo was caught sucking sex was grabbed the headlines by them. You can imagine how popular it was.

This is just because the outside world has a relatively narrow understanding and pays more attention to actors and celebrities who can give the audience intuitive feelings. However, within the industry, Xu Zheng has received more attention than the other two combined.

Guang Hehua knew that there were quite a few people who contacted Xu Zheng directly and wanted to recruit him into the company, and they were also big companies. Secretly, there were countless companies that were looking for him to film movies with any conditions.

He Hua simply had no intention of recruiting him, so he just let it go and ignored it.

Xu Zheng is also a smart man. He knows that as long as the movie is still in theaters, it is best not to have news about him cooperating with so and so, otherwise it will give his opponents an excuse.

When the news comes that "Xu Zheng was ungrateful and turned to others after his success", not only will his new reputation and image be damaged, but it may also affect the movie's box office. At that time, it will be really difficult to deal with.

After He Hua and the others returned to BJ, good news came:
"The key to "Thailand" has been extended for one month and has been applied for." (End of Chapter)
