Become famous another day.

Chapter 716 Are you free to meet tomorrow?

Liu Zhiyin's concert was held at Yuming Stadium, one of the largest stadiums in Yuming.

It can accommodate 20,000 people at the same time, so it is often the venue of choice for singers to hold concerts.

Generally speaking, being able to hold a concert in such a place can be considered a symbol of box office success.

Selling 20,000 tickets at once is no ordinary thing.

Even in a city as big as Yuming, if you want to attract 20,000 people to buy tickets to listen to you sing, you still need very loyal fans to support you.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that many singers you have never heard of are also holding concerts, especially some idol singers who have not yet made it into the circle and only have a small number of fans. If you look carefully at the information about their concerts, you will find that they are often held in a small venue that can accommodate a few hundred people at most, and no more than a thousand people.

Lu Yanhe actually seldom comes to concerts.

The main reason is that he has relatively few singer friends, just the ones in “Young Days”, and Liu Zhiyin is the first one to hold a large-scale concert tour.

After Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei entered through the VIP channel, they went directly to the backstage.

Liu Zhiyin was chatting and laughing with her dancers and chorus members backstage.

As soon as Lu Yanhe appeared, a group of people let out deafening screams.

"Liu Zhiyin, you didn't lie to us, Lu Yanhe is really here--" A girl expressed her surprise and liking for Lu Yanhe with very exaggerated gestures and tone.

Lu Yanhe was caught off guard and smiled subconsciously.

Liu Zhiyin reluctantly stepped forward to greet Lu Yanhe.

"Many of them are your fans. Alas, helping me with this concert is just a job. You are their passion."

Lu Yanhe didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and greeted everyone.

After a few pleasantries, someone started arranging for us to take a group photo.

Lu Yanhe introduced Li Pengfei to Liu Zhiyin: "My high school classmate."

Liu Zhiyin had long noticed this young man whose temperament was out of tune with the entertainment industry.

"Hello."

She shook hands with Li Pengfei.

"Hello." Li Pengfei shook hands with her somewhat stiffly.

After taking the photo, Lu Yanhe said, "Then I won't bother you getting ready. I'll wait for you to start the show."

"Okay." Liu Zhiyin suddenly thought of something, "By the way, the cameras on the scene may capture you later, and you will appear on the screen. Is this okay with you? If you mind, I'll ask them to keep the cameras away from your area."

Lu Yanhe: "It doesn't matter."

Liu Zhiyin: "When you appear on the live screen, everyone will scream."

Lu Yanhe teased: "Are you afraid that I will steal your limelight?"

Liu Zhiyin raised her chin proudly: "At my concert, no matter how popular you are, you are only bringing me the limelight."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

"Well, come on, let's see how popular you are today."
-
Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei went to the relatives and friends area.

The friends and family area is a separate fenced-off area.

In fact, it is in the first row of the audience seats, but it is separated from the audience seats.

Qin Zhibai, Peng Zhixing and others are there, as well as other artists.

Some pleasantries.

Because Lu Yanhe has been almost always on the set filming, he rarely has the opportunity to get to know artists in the circle, especially those who have just emerged.

Lu Yanhe now rarely attends ceremonies or events, especially those that bring together popular artists on various platforms. This certainly gives him a lot of extra time, which he can use to film or rest, but it also makes him gradually lose touch with the latest developments in the entertainment industry.

At Liu Zhiyin's concert, Lu Yanhe was shocked to find that he didn't recognize most of the people there, and he had never even heard of their names.

He couldn't show it yet, so he used all his acting skills. After the greetings, he found out during the conversation.

Many of them got to know Liu Zhiyin through recording variety shows or other work, and most of them are singers.

What surprised Lu Yanhe even more was that the enthusiasm they expressed towards him in their words and deeds was not directed at him as a person.

Peng Zhixing whispered to Lu Yanhe, "The news that you are going to participate in the program Sing My Song has spread among the music community. They are all eyeing the program. No, they are eyeing you as a person."

"Uh..." Lu Yanhe didn't expect that it was because of this. "This is a show for amateurs. Why are they staring at these famous singers?"

"There will be flying guests and singing sessions, all of which require well-known singers." Peng Zhixing said, "Also, the most important thing is the positions of the mentor group and creative director. Aren't they looking for people now? Right now, no one in the mentor group has been decided, and only Qin Zhibai has been decided as the creative director. There are still many pitfalls."

Lu Yanhe: "I don't care about these specific things."

"You don't have to worry about the specifics." Peng Zhixing smiled. "In the eyes of others, it's just a matter of your words. You should know that people in the circle are saying that as long as they become friends with you, they will get a steady stream of resources, because the projects you have will give priority to your friends."

"That's true, but it has to be something I know and think is suitable." Lu Yanhe said, "Besides, I don't have that many friends, and I don't have that many projects. I can't say that just because you exchange a few warm words with me, you are my friend, right?"

Peng Zhixing: "That's right, yeah."

He nodded as if to stop.

Lu Yanhe reacted.
-
When the concert was about to begin, the whole place suddenly went dark.

There were screams at the scene, the kind of screams that couldn't be suppressed when one was about to meet their idol.

Then, suddenly, all the lights in the venue came on.

The music is ringing.

It's the kind of music with a very strong sense of rhythm.

On the stage, Liu Zhiyin and her more than 20 dancers appeared in an orderly formation. Following the beat of the music, they performed some cool moves like female warriors.

Then, the whole audience was boiling.

Liu Zhiyin chose her most popular song to open the show.

"The Age of Savage Growth".

Lu Yanhe looked around.

This is a completely different environment from a movie premiere.

He could see a kind of fanaticism on everyone's face. This kind of fanaticism was different from the kind of fanaticism that Lu Yanhe saw when he was surrounded and blocked by fans at the airport.

Such an atmosphere was so infectious that Lu Yanhe was inspired to stand up, dance along and clap his hands to the beat.

By the time he realized what Li Pengfei was doing, he turned around and saw that the latter was holding up a mobile phone and recording him.

"What are you doing?" Lu Yanhe laughed.

Li Pengfei: “Record it.”

Lu Yanhe said, "You are here to listen to the concert, not to be a photographer. Put down your phone and stand up and have fun."

Li Pengfei stood up.

"I have never heard of her songs. I can't relate to them at all."

"So what do you think of her songs?"

"It's OK, it sounds nice."

"Then whether you've heard it before or not, just treat it as your first time listening to it." Lu Yanhe whispered in Li Pengfei's ear, "In fact, I haven't heard many of these songs either."

Li Pengfei: "I see you are moving so vigorously."

"It's a rare opportunity to sway a little bit." Lu Yanhe said with a smile, "If I move like this normally, people will think I'm crazy."

Li Pengfei: "If it's you, yes."

Lu Yanhe asked: "If you like exploring the wild so much, would you be willing to turn this hobby into your career?"

There were cheers and screams all around, it was very noisy.

Li Pengfei almost thought he had heard it wrong.

"Profession?"

"Yes." Lu Yanhe said, "You always told me before that you didn't have anything you wanted to do, and you didn't have any goals, so you didn't know what to do. But in the past few years, you have been doing things related to the wild, such as rock climbing, wild photography, and camping. You have never stopped."

Li Pengfei asked: "Can this also become a career?"

"What if your outdoor trip was made into a documentary?" Lu Yanhe asked.

Li Pengfei was stunned.

Lu Yanhe: "You don't have to make a lot of money, and there is no pressure to support a family. You can really record everything you are interested in. Of course, it can still bring financial returns, but the nature is different. Do you understand what I mean?"

"clear."

Lu Yanhe: "Zijun said that you have no plans and have not thought about what you want to do in the future. Have you ever thought that you can't respond to the idea of ​​getting married because you know that getting married is a very secular thing, and what you are doing is something other than secular. You subconsciously think that if you get married, you will end everything now. However, you can actually put the things you like and want to do for the rest of your life into a secular framework."

Li Pengfei was silent for a while before he said, "I don't know."

"Give it a try," Lu Yanhe said. "Find like-minded partners and see if you can form a team to record your explorations of every place in the wild. It's not just your career. In the end, it will become your life summary, right? You always say that you don't know the meaning of your life. You just want to be happy and live a life of idleness and waiting to die. But now you are not living a life of idleness and waiting to die. Do you know why? It's because you have found the meaning of your life."

Lu Yanhe hooked Li Pengfei's neck and started dancing wildly with him.

Right where it is, right here.

The dim light seemed to serve as a protective color, allowing them to jump and dance without any worries.

Lu Yanhe whispered in his ear: "I hope you can be truly happy and stay truly happy forever."

Li Pengfei was stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and smiled.
-
After singing and dancing for five consecutive songs, Liu Zhiyin's concert finally entered the slow song stage.

Lu Yanhe and Li Pengfei were also tired and sat down again.

Liu Zhiyin sings on the stage.

“Even if the stage is shining, I am still me.”

“The flowers that time has blossomed in me are the flowers of the past.”

Lu Yanhe was listening in the audience and was deeply touched.

Only those who knew Liu Zhiyin knew how much sweat she had put in along the way. Lu Yanhe had hardly ever seen anyone who worked harder than her.

When recording "Young Days", she would stretch her legs every day and never be lazy, just to ensure that the quality of her dancing on stage would not decline.

A song suddenly rang in Lu Yanhe's mind.

"Girl with Wings", original singer, Joey Yung.

On the stage under the blue lights, Liu Zhiyin sang softly on the stage in the costume of a mermaid princess.

The entire venue was listening to her singing in silence.

She is not a singer with a particularly clean and clear voice, but the sincerity she expresses in her singing is pure and true.

Yoo Ji-eun is totally not a female idol like Lee Chi-baek who is loved by fans because of her own charm.

She is beautiful, but her beauty is aggressive.

She works hard, but her efforts put pressure on everyone.

She is very competitive, but so competitive that sometimes people feel she is not relaxed.

When I first returned to China, I was on "Young Days" and was scolded by the audience because I wanted to win in every environment.

After leaving this show and going to other shows, I still got scolded.

She has been gritting her teeth and not giving up. Of course, she has not changed to cater to the audience and be a female idol who is not competitive, confused and cute.

As time passed, everyone seemed to slowly accept this girl who refused to admit defeat.

Her stubbornness and persistence have become labels on her, in a way that once existed as a black spot on her.
-
After the concert, Lu Yanhe and the others left first.

After going out, they waited for Chen Siqi and the others in the car.

We made an appointment to have a midnight snack together.

A big gathering of the editorial department of "Jump Up".

People in the editorial department are also very familiar with Li Pengfei.

After all, this person's name was on the first issue of "Jump Up" and appeared in many subsequent issues, sometimes as the photographer of a certain illustration, and sometimes as a "special thanks".

Of course, the identity that everyone is most familiar with is Xu Zijun’s boyfriend.

Many people have never seen him in person and have only seen photos circulating in various group chats. Now that they have seen him in person, several young girls whispered that he is so handsome.

No one noticed that there was something wrong between Xu Zijun and Li Pengfei.
-
At the dinner table, everyone was making a lot of noise, talking about the embarrassing things that happened at work.

Zhou Mukai was there too.

After Bai Yu left, he was responsible for the content of the magazine together with Xu Zijun, taking over Bai Yu's work.

Lu Yanhe asked Zhou Mukai: "After graduation, are you willing to stay and work full-time at Jump Up?"

Zhou Mukai looked hesitant.

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Lu Yanhe asked: "Is there any problem? If you have any ideas, you can tell me directly."

Zhou Mukai pondered for a moment and said, "Then I'll tell you directly, I like the magazine "Jump Up" very much. If I can continue to work for this magazine, I am willing to do so. However, firstly, I don't know how long "Jump Up" can last. I know that its current market is still very good and its sales are constantly increasing, but after all, this era is changing so much. With the development of AI, all walks of life are facing huge changes, not to mention the environment of print media. Secondly, I haven't thought about what kind of life I want to live."

Lu Yanhe nodded.

"So the reason you're hesitating isn't something that can be satisfied by what we do now?"

Zhou Mukai nodded.

"I am also considering whether to pursue a doctorate," Zhou Mukai said. "In this way, maybe I can become a teacher in a university in the future. If one day Jump Up is really closed, I will have a way out."

Lu Yanhe understood what Zhou Mukai meant by "escape plan".

People either do a job they like or a job with high economic returns, and they always have to choose one of the two. Working on "Jump Up" and doing research and teaching related to literature are both jobs that Zhou Mukai likes.

Zhou Mukai currently earns 2 yuan a month at Jump Up. After taking over Bai Yu's job, his salary should rise to around 3 yuan, and this is all the actual income. It can be said that there is no higher salary than the editor of Jump Up. However, if we really want to compare, the future ceiling of the position of text director of Jump Up is actually limited.

Zhou Mukai is not an author and has no intention of engaging in creation. There is little room for promotion in the editor position, and the next level is editor-in-chief. If "Jump Up" is going to be a large print media company, in addition to "Jump Up", it will also establish other magazines, then Zhou Mukai's future development space will be much greater, but the editor-in-chief of "Jump Up" can only be Chen Siqi.

Therefore, Lu Yanhe understood Zhou Mukai's hesitation.

"If you need anything, feel free to tell me." Lu Yanhe said, "In addition to magazines, we have many other business sectors, including Linghe. Your work experience is of great value to our companies, and so is you."

Zhou Mukai smiled and patted Lu Yanhe's shoulder.

"My first choice must be your place, but before making the final decision, I need to think about some things and discuss it with my family and Xiuxiu."

"I understand." Lu Yanhe nodded.

Zhou Mukai holds an undergraduate and master's degree from Zhenhua University. For him, as long as he is not stubborn in looking for a job that matches his major, he can actually go to many places where there is a huge room for development.

Not to mention, the work experience and connections he accumulated at a magazine like Jump Up while studying are valuable assets for any domestic company.

Everyone has his own choices. Lu Yanhe just sincerely hopes that his classmates and friends can stay with him as much as possible.

He couldn't tell anyone about this obsession, because if he did, he would become a burden to others.

At the end of the day, he still wants the best for everyone.

So, he supported Sister Zixing’s return to Yemai.com.

He also supported Bai Yu's decision to leave.

When Li Pengfei faced some dilemmas in making choices, he tried his best to help him resolve the dilemma in his own way.

Just like they had all helped and supported him in their own way when he needed help and support.
-
Lu Yanhe wrote the song "Girl with Wings", asked someone to arrange the music, and asked someone to sing a demo. It sounded like that. He took an envelope and wrote a card by hand:
——Thank you for inviting me to your concert. This is a gift in return.

Afterwards, he asked someone to deliver it to Liu Zhiyin.

Since I came up with this song while listening to her concert, I'll dedicate it to her.

That night, Liu Zhiyin sent him a message in disbelief: Is this song for me?

Lu Yanhe: Well, I thought of this song when I was listening to your concert.

Liu Zhiyin: !!!

Liu Zhiyin: This song really touched my heart!
Liu Zhiyin: It’s exactly what I wanted to say in my heart, and you have fully realized it.

Lu Yanhe: I wrote this song because I listened to your concert.

Although Lu Yanhe didn't say anything, Liu Zhiyin sent someone to deliver a profit distribution agreement the next day. 50% of all commercial income from the song "Girl with Wings" would belong to Lu Yanhe.

There was no mention of copyright transfer. Although Lu Yanhe said that he was giving it to Liu Zhiyin, Liu Zhiyin did not really "accept" it directly.

What this agreement means is that the copyright still belongs to Lu Yanhe, and she only has the right to perform.

——Of course, in reality, there was no discussion of copyright at all.

Lu Yanhe took the agreement and said nothing, without even signing it, and just stuffed it into his drawer.

He was quite fortunate that he had made a lot of money, more than he could spend in his lifetime, so he could face many benefits with ease and not care about gains and losses.

Brothers, settle accounts.

However, there is no need to settle accounts for gifts given, that’s what Lu Yanhe thinks.

But he has no intention of transferring the copyright directly.

If Liu Zhiyin is always the Liu Zhiyin she is now, the gift will always be a gift.

If Liu Zhiyin becomes another Liu Zhiyin, the gift can be taken back.

This is Lu Yanhe’s idea.
-
"Do you still remember that you have a song called "Childhood"? "

Chen Ziyan asked.

Lu Yanhe nodded: "I remember."

“I haven’t sung it yet.”

"The main reason is that there is no suitable opportunity to sing."

"But, should we record it first?" Chen Ziyan mentioned "Childhood" after listening to "Girl with Wings". "Although you are not a singer anymore, you have released many songs. You are 25 years old, and your voice is actually changing all the time. Don't let the time come when you remember to record this song and you can't sing it with that feeling anymore."

Lu Yanhe: "No, this song will have a corresponding feeling no matter what age you are."

Chen Ziyan: "But it's not how you feel when you're twenty-five."

Lu Yanhe: "Then, find a time to record it."

"Yeah." Chen Ziyan nodded, "Actually, I've also been thinking about whether or not to make an album."

"Making an album?" Lu Yanhe was a little surprised.

"Yes." Chen Ziyan said, "Look, you've sung some songs yourself and written songs for many people. It would be interesting to make an album as a songwriter and release it in conjunction with the program Sing My Song.

Lu Yanhe asked: "Does anyone buy albums these days?"

"There aren't many physical albums, but electronic albums are still very popular," said Chen Ziyan. "For your loyal fans, physical albums are also a gift to them."

"That's nonsense. They have to spend money." Lu Yanhe said immediately, "Gifts should be free."

"You can donate all the proceeds from this album in the name of your fans," said Chen Ziyan.

Lu Yanhe fell into deep thought.

"Over the years, you have done a lot of undisclosed charity work. This is your personal behavior. However, many hands make light work. I have been thinking recently that it would be a good thing if you could call on your fans to do charity work together." Chen Ziyan said, "Then I think it would be better to do it in a hands-on way."

Lu Yanhe hesitated for a moment and asked, "Sister Zi Yan, did something happen? Do I need to use this incident to protect my image?"

Chen Ziyan was stunned for a moment, "Ah?"

"Your proposal is very sudden." Lu Yanhe said, "Of course I am willing to call on my fans to do charity together, but it makes me feel a little uneasy to mention this matter suddenly."

Chen Ziyan sighed.

"Okay, you are very perceptive, but nothing has actually happened. I just want to take precautions." Chen Ziyan said, "In the past few years, your high income has caused more than one negative attack. There is no way. This is almost an original sin and cannot be eradicated. So, I want to use this incident to build a golden body for you."

Lu Yanhe: "Is that it?"

Chen Ziyan nodded, "That's it."

Chen Ziyan is a person who plans ahead and makes arrangements in advance.

This kind of ability is actually rare among agents.

But because she has such ability, Lu Yanhe's journey has been very smooth and no major crisis has occurred.

Every time someone tries to cause trouble, their plans are quickly crushed by the "iron-clad forces of nature".

What makes facts become “as strong as iron” requires more than just the facts themselves being strong enough.
-
Chen Ziyan did not have a very clear purpose this time.

When she thought about this, she felt that it was a pity that Lu Yanhe had written so many songs and he would not produce a work just because he did not pursue the singer route. Life is long, and it would be good to organize the scattered creations and use them to do something meaningful.

The second reason is that Lu Yanhe is now in too high a position. If a person is in a very high position, under the social norms, if he wants to wear the crown, he must bear its weight.

Lu Yanhe's charity work is usually not public, but not public means no one knows about it. Chen Ziyan also doesn't want Lu Yanhe's charity work to be defined as "show", so if he releases an album and gives all fans a gift, it can be justified, and it is also a manifestation of social responsibility.

Chen Ziyan's idea was indeed very simple. Several factors came together and she came up with this suggestion.

A songwriter's album.

An album in the non-traditional sense.

This is good, there is no pressure on results or data.

Lu Yanhe thought about it and agreed.

Chen Ziyan said: "As a birthday present for your twenty-fifth birthday."

Lu Yanhe nodded: "Okay."

Just do it.

The songs are all ready-made. Of course, some songs need to be re-arranged to make versions suitable for the record, such as "Love" and "Green Apple Paradise". These two songs currently only have stage versions.

Lu Yanhe also needs to talk about this plan with Li Zhibai, Yan Liang, Song Linxin, Liu Zhiyin and others.

We invited them to record songs. Well, there is no compensation. This is a charity project and all the profits will be donated.

Song Linxin asked in surprise: "What am I here to record? Memorial? You are the original singer."

Lu Yanhe said: "My original version is not as popular as yours. It is your version that made this song known to many people. When the time comes, there will be one version of mine and one version of you in the album."

Song Linxin: "...I have no problem coming to record, but I always feel like I will be scolded by your fans."

“No, when the album is released, everyone will know that you are here to help me with a charity project.”

Only then did Song Linxin agree.
-
Chen Ziyan was left to worry about recording songs and making albums, while Lu Yanhe didn't care. He just had to wait to enter the recording studio.

The second Jump Up International Film Critics Film Festival has arrived as scheduled.

Lu Yanhe had dinner with the film critics and did not participate in the subsequent schedule. He shot two commercials, recorded some interviews for the promotion of "Burning Fire" when it was released, and then -

Li Zhibai returned home exhausted.

Lu Yanhe specially gathered a group of friends to welcome him.

After filming "Buried", Li Zhibai was so thin that he looked like a bag of bones.

This time when he came back, he had to start staying in the house and raising meat.

In July, he will join the crew to film "Those Years".

"Oh my god, I thought Buried would be easy to shoot, because I didn't have to move and just stayed in one place every day. But it turned out to be terrible. I stayed in a small, enclosed space every day. I felt like I was going to get depressed."

Li Zhibai turned around and complained to Lu Yanhe, "This crappy movie was so tiring to shoot. It was even more tiring than shooting The Chinese Paladin. The Chinese Paladin had so many action scenes."

Lu Yanhe smiled.

He has seen some of the footage from Buried from Parameter.

Although Li Zhibai looked as if he had really been fooled, judging from the filming footage, his performance in this movie can be described as surprising.

It was a one-man show from beginning to end, and most of the time, the camera was facing his face.

In this situation, Li Zhibai not only needs to have a very strong sense of belief, but also needs to have solid acting skills.

As a result, Li Zhibai, who has mainly played the leading role in idol dramas and romances, gave a very convincing performance.

Compared to the original version, he gives a younger, more physiological and primal response.

His anger, fear and anxiety were well-measured.

Lu Yanhe knew that Li Zhibai had made a lot of preparations for the filming of this movie and even invited an acting teacher to give him guidance before going there.

Lu Yanhe patted Li Zhibai on the shoulder and said, "Did you enjoy your performance?"

Li Zhibai, who had been complaining all the time, stopped talking. After a while, he curled his lips and smiled.

“It was really fun to act.”

Completely different performance content. After being an actor for so long, he finally got a completely different role and a different subject matter.

Li Zhibai also felt that it might be difficult for him to come across a one-man drama script again in the future.

Lu Yanhe: "This movie will be very successful."

"Have you seen the material?" Li Zhibai reacted immediately.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

Li Zhibai: "Alas, I just took a few days off and I have to join the crew to shoot "Those Years". It's not enough that you torture yourself, and now you torture me."

"You can take a break after you finish filming Those Years, right?" Lu Yanhe said, "But after I finish filming Dingfeng No. 1, I still have to film Friends."

Li Zhibai: "..."

Lu Yanhe: "Of course, cherish your time now. When "Chinese Paladin" is broadcast, your popularity will soar again. When "Buried Alive" is released, you will be well-known in Europe and the United States. When "Those Years" is released, OK, almost all movie scripts suitable for you will be given priority. I don't know if you will faint from filming, but your eyes can already read the script so well that you need to eat lutein every day."

Li Zhibai: "Damn, so exaggerated?"

"Yes, it's so exaggerated." Lu Yanhe nodded, "So, you only made two movies in a year, so you should cherish them."

"..." Li Zhibai sighed, "No, I have to tell Lin Suyang that I will not take any more roles after filming Those Years. I need to rest. I must rest. I am not a king of reluctance like you."

Lu Yanhe laughed.
-
The next day, Li Zhibai slept until almost noon.

Lu Yanhe ordered takeout.

A roast duck.

Two people sat in front of the coffee table and ate.

Half of Li Zhibai's head stood up, like a peacock's tail, swaying with his movements.

His eyes were dull, his mouth was full of oil, and he said those words again: "I'm so tired."

Lu Yanhe turned a deaf ear.

After two seconds, Li Zhibai repeated: "So tired."

Lu Yanhe said, "I'm going to meet Liu Bige later this afternoon. Do you want to come with me?"

"What are you going for?"

"Let's talk about the script of Dingfeng No. 1."

"What am I going to do?"

"Meeting an old friend."

Li Zhibai's eyes were dull, "I'm so tired."

After a pause, he continued, "I don't want to go out."

Lu Yanhe: "Then why are you staying in the house?"

"Lunched."

Lu Yanhe: "Okay."
-
Regarding the movie Dingfeng No. 1, Lu Yanhe truly felt that the process of preparing a movie can take so long.

The project was originally in preparation before "Can't Even Fake My Death", but several years have passed and it is only now ready to start filming.

Fortunately, Liu Bige has secured his place as a famous director since "Late Spring" and "Can't Even Fake My Death". The box office success of the two films means he doesn't have to worry about money anymore, so he can prepare for this film at his leisure.

The most rewarding thing for him is that, because of several delays, the film was transformed from a spy war blockbuster into an art film that could be shot according to his ideas.

Of course, Liu Bige would not make it dull and ugly.

Late Spring is not such a movie.

Liu Bige is not the kind of director who likes to play with stream of consciousness.

"Are you feeling OK after filming "The Mist"? " As soon as Liu Bige met them, he was concerned about Lu Yanhe's condition.

The play "Dingfeng No. 1" is very demanding on the actors. Without sufficient energy, it would be difficult to persevere.

Because this movie is tense almost throughout, the protagonist played by Lu Yanhe in this movie also suffers tremendous mental pressure, which is very torturous.

For an actor like Lu Yanhe, it is impossible for him not to empathize with the character.

This also means that Lu Yanhe himself will also face such tremendous mental pressure.

"No problem." Lu Yanhe said, "I'll take a break for a while, and I'll be able to adjust when I join the team."

Liu Bige nodded.

"I have no doubt about your ability, I'm just worried that you'll get too caught up in the filming."

Lu Yanhe took a deep breath.

"After filming so many movies, I've learned how to differentiate between movies and reality. It shouldn't be that bad, right?" he laughed.

Liu Bige: "When you last filmed "Late Spring", you got stuck in it, although you came out of it relatively quickly later."

Lu Yanhe recalled his last experience of filming "Late Spring" and fell silent.

Because it seems that Liu Bigo was not wrong.

Indeed it is.

Judging from Liu Bige's filming style, this "Dingfeng No. 1" is probably another one that he can completely let go, devote himself to, and act over and over again until he completely forgets himself.

This is not to say that such a performance is necessarily the best performance, but it will definitely bring the greatest exhaustion to the actors.

Lu Yanhe was silent for a moment, then said to Liu Bige: "You're making me a little nervous."

Liu Bige seemed to be really worried about Lu Yanhe.

"To be honest, after I started preparing for this play, I often dreamed about the scenes in the movie," Liu Bige said. "I was the one who had to hide myself. There was real danger at every step, and I felt like I was there."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yanhe's expression became serious.

"You are an actor with a strong ability to empathize. I am worried that once you get into the role, you won't be able to get out of it."

"No." Lu Yanhe shook his head. He told Liu Bige firmly, "I can let myself go and fully enter every role again and again because I have an anchor point. No matter how far I go, I can always come back. You don't have to worry about me."
