China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 163 Chinese-language movies win three golden lions in a row!Jiang Wen was stunned!

Mom has already passed through the conversation!
I want to make myself friends with Guan Ling.

He also said that he should take the initiative.

I really don't know what to say.

"Mom really wants me to have a deeper relationship with Guan Ling." Liu Yifei felt a little ashamed thinking about her mother's changes in the past few years.

During this period, after Guan Ling gave Liu Yifei the daughter role in "The Rescue" and the second female role in the Palme d'Or "Shoplifters".

Although Liu Xiaoli saw that the characters in it had some minor problems, she did not express dissatisfaction.Liu Yifei also sees this clearly.

In "Hearing Girl", Liu Yifei plays a normal girl in a deaf-mute family.There's nothing wrong with this character, it's a serious character.When Guan Ling invited her, her mother commented that Guan Ling was a whimsical child, but she did not want to give up this opportunity. In the end, "Hearing Girl" directly won the Oscar for Best Screenplay, and Liu Yifei became instantly famous around the world.

After that, my mother's attitude changed.

Not only did he agree to change his nationality, he also allowed himself to have a good relationship with Guan Ling.

Then after the release of "Crazy Racing", "2012", and "Empire".

Her mother has completely become a die-hard fan of Guan Ling. She urges Liu Yifei to contact Guan Ling every day, and teaches Liu Yifei how to move freely, thus making Guan Ling's lips curl up.

But Guan Ling was also a boring gourd. Later, her mother felt too tired and just let Liu Yifei let nature take its course.

Liu Yifei could tell that letting nature take its course was most likely to put a negative distance between herself and Guan Ling.

So now whenever it's a script given to Liu Yifei by Guan Ling, my mother can only say two words.

"Take it."

In "The Rescue", Liu Yifei will play the role of a young Chinese woman who was arrested and a toy to be auctioned at a high-rise auction.

There is also a topless scene wearing only underwear.Although after talking to Guan Ling, Guan Ling decided to make a glass retaining wall for her outside and place it in the middle of the banquet hall.

But what Liu’s mother didn’t know was that her mother had seen the underwear scene in the script, but she didn’t refute it at all.

When she saw it, she just smiled at herself and told her not to be embarrassed when she acted.

In "Shoplifters", Liu Yifei plays a foot-washing girl who engages in an unspeakable profession.This character needs to be a bit more extreme, and several close-up actions need to be filmed.

But Liu Xiaoli acted as if she hadn't seen it.Just praising the script there.

Logically speaking, according to Liu Xiaoli's character, she would never have let herself play the latter two roles before.

But now, she has let it slide.

Thinking of this, Liu Yifei actually felt a little painful in her heart.

"Why do I feel like even if it's successful, it's still not my mother!" The little head was spinning here and there.

But Liu Yifei also knows in her heart that the roles given to her by Guan Ling are enough for her to make a name for herself around the world and gain more international popularity.

There is no doubt about this!

After all, after "Hearing Girl", she continued to develop in China for a period of time. Guan Ling said that the purpose was to allow her to completely consolidate the base of Chinese movie fans and thus give her another life channel.

"By the way, how are you memorizing the script of "Hurricane Rescue"?" Guan Ling suddenly asked.

"It's overripe."

Speaking of this, Liu Yifei was very excited, "I even went to practice horse riding. I will definitely not embarrass you when the time comes."

Liu Yifei is quite proud. After hearing Guan Ling curse for the first time in "Hearing Girl", Liu Yifei got the script early this time, but she didn't expect that she would be the NG one.

As soon as they landed, they saw Gai Naote and Cheng Long greeting them.

"Director Guan, you're here!" Cheng Long's face was filled with anticipation.

"Oh, dear Crystal Liu, long time no see, you have really become more and more beautiful!" Gateaute wanted to take up Liu Yifei's palm and kiss it.

Guan Ling glanced at him, and Gainaote froze immediately.

Then he came over and hugged Guan Ling and said,

"My dear boss, don't look at me like that. I've already rented the villa, and I've already chosen the diva you want. It's Beyoncé, whose new song ranks third in the United States.

Moreover, the actors are already in place, and I have even contacted the subsequent distribution channels. I am just waiting to see the film quality and release time before deciding how many theaters will open at the same time. I have already done this All work.

So the look in your eyes makes me feel very heartbroken. "

Cheng Long nodded aside and said, "I can prove this. Beyoncé also asked for my autograph, saying she is a fan of mine."

"Really?" Liu Yifei was very excited. Beyoncé is an American diva-level figure, so she can also invite a guest star.

"Of course it's true, Crystal, you actually questioned me."

Gai Naote patted his chest, full of confidence.

"Beyoncé has released many albums this year. She is waiting to expand her influence and see if she can get nominated for Grammy and Golden Globe Awards in a few months. The films of Guan Guan and Cheng Long are very important to her. Publicity has no harm at all, so by hiring her, we didn’t even pay much."

"Also, the filming of James Wan's "Insidious" is in progress, and it is estimated that the filming will be completed in 20 days. And "Twilight" has already begun preparations for production."

"Okay, you are worthy of your million-dollar annual salary." Guan Ling gave a thumbs up. Although this kid went on a trip a while ago, he still managed things quite clearly.Worthy of praise.

But there is no need to send money.

After all, the release of "Bongtian Empire" also made him millions of dollars. "Insidious", "Twilight" and "Hurricane Rescue" will also bring huge benefits to the other party.

We returned to Ferris Lingyun together, and Guan Ling had a little chat with Cheng Long, Liu Yifei and other actors who had been scheduled to understand the problems that everyone might have.

Only the action instructor of the family class raised his own questions.

"Director Guan, I think the movements should be relaxed during the fighting scenes. I think the script basically only includes one or two fatal moves from inside. I feel that the movie may lack beauty by then."

"I also have some doubts about this." Cheng Long said, "My foundation in Hollywood has always been to add a little comedy to action scenes, and although this movie is very exciting, it is very different from my style."

"Do you want to be funny all your life?" After Guan Ling said this, Cheng Long was stunned.

If others say this to Cheng Long, Cheng Long may tell them that comedy is just a means, and action is the soul.

But these words were said by Guan Ling, and Cheng Long couldn't help but feel shocked. Now that he has returned to Hollywood, does he really have to stick to his acting style so that he can still be a world-renowned comedy action star in Hollywood?
Guan Ling has only one request for the action director, "If you have too many actions, I won't pay you more. So you don't need to use previous movies to simulate the actions. I only have three words for Brother Cheng Long this time." .

Steady, accurate, ruthless.

I want his punches to hit the flesh, I want him to kill with every move, and I want his words to send chills all over the body. "

When this request came out, the action directors nodded sharply.

"understood."

As for Guan Ling, the current group of action actors in Hong Kong are very obedient.Although in their opinion, Guan Ling may not understand action, and Guan Ling may not understand the chaotic attraction of martial arts, no one dares to say that Guan Ling does not understand movies.

On the third day after arriving in the United States, "Taken" was started.When the film was turned on, Nolan used his promotional attributes and took a tour at Guan Ling's invitation.

The news was quickly announced by North American media and caused a certain degree of discussion in North America. "Guan+Jackie Chan, I feel like I'm about to see another hit movie!"

"The filming of "Taken" has officially started, and Nolan showed up at the filming scene to promote the new movie!"

"Hearing girls are coming to the United States again, and Hollywood is the ultimate dream of filmmakers around the world. Crystal Liu is about to shoot Guan's Hollywood movie masterpiece. Let's look forward to what kind of sparks will emerge when Guan and Crystal Liu collaborate again."

The news from North America was quickly forwarded and translated to China. As soon as the news of the launch of "Hurricane Rescue" came out, the media went crazy in an instant.

Guan Ling's name continues to appear on the front page of China Entertainment.

"Guan Ling has just left for the United States, and there is news that a new movie has been released immediately. It shows that young people are full of firepower!"

"The name "Taken" sounds like a revenge movie. I like this type of movie the most, and the starring role is Cheng Long. I believe it will be worth the price of admission."

"After watching "Nightclub", I hope Director Guan can let Lingyun Media give us a less silly movie to give us a change of taste. Watching "Red Cliff" this year, I can see cuteness, which makes me wonder if I am a pure A funny guy."

"Liu Yifei went to Hollywood again. Will Guan Ling and Liu Yifei continue to cooperate?"

The Olympic Games has focused global attention on sports, but it does not mean that the audience is indifferent to the entertainment industry and the film industry.

Many more people discuss it than don’t.

And the box office in the cinema also proves that audiences are still willing to pay for good movies.

Recently, "Golden Heist" and "Kung Fu Panda" have been heavily promoted.

It seems that they are preparing to make a big harvest in China.

The release of "The Incredible Hulk" in the mainland can be said to be a heavy blow to the film market that has been dormant due to the Olympics after "Nightclub".

The box office in the first weekend exceeded 400 million, which almost indicates that this movie can exceed [-] million.

Five years ago, Ang Lee filmed a "Hulk" and chose Eric to play the role. Now this is a new version, and the actor is Edward Norton.

The film had its premiere at New Century Cinemas in Beijing. The tense plot and hot scenes won unanimous praise from everyone, making it the last money-grabbing blockbuster of the summer.

……

Apart from Guan Ling's "Hurricane Rescue", the most popular one discussed online is of course Jiang Wen at the Venice Film Festival.

As a frequent visitor to Venice, Jiang Wen previously won the title of Venice's youngest Best Actor.

But he himself was nominated for the Golden Lion Award twice in Venice, but failed in the end.

It didn't even win the jury award or the Silver Lion for Best Director.

This time, Jiang Wen actually had no idea.

But everyone is looking forward to what level Jiang Wen's new movie can reach.Especially if you can win a melon and two dates in Venice.

After all, judging from the news reprinted in China, Italy has a very high evaluation of this film.

In the opening ceremony, the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly" was actually one of the most popular films.

In Venice this year, there are many Chinese faces.

For example, Chief Jia, his film "Love by the River" was shortlisted for the master screening section this time, and the film "Dang Kou" he produced was entered into the main competition section.

"Women" shot by mainland director Huang Wenhai entered the Horizon section.

Zhou Yaowu's "Cucumber" was shortlisted for the International Film Critics Week section.

There is also Johnnie To who serves as a judge on the main competition jury.

There are many Chinese people, but none of them can match Jiang Wen's face.

Even Jia Zhangke, a direct descendant of Venice, has to avoid the sharp edges of Jiang Wen's films.

"Let the Bullets Fly" was so awesome that after the premiere, Jia Zhangke touched his forehead and kept laughing and thinking about something.

"Could this script be written by Director Guan Lingguan?" Section Chief Jia was a little doubtful about life.

On the day of its premiere, most of the people who came to "Let the Bullets Fly" came from China, but after everyone watched the film, its reputation instantly exploded.

Jiang Wen was not surprised by this. He knew about the movie he shot himself.

Moreover, the actors in this movie are all well-known actors with acting skills, and they are even very well-known in the country.

There is no doubt about their level.

"This is the best foreign-language western I've ever seen!"

"When the male protagonist wears a little hat, holds a cigarette in his mouth, and holds a pistol, he reminds me of a purebred Chinese western cowboy!"

"I am very interested in the Chinese culture in it, and the lines in it are so interesting. There are deep meanings in various dialogues, but I still can't understand it. But I don't deny that the film has a strong artistic sense. And I I saw the most popular one, fight the bandits! Fight the bandits!"

Many foreigners also expressed their opinions on this movie, and most of them praised it.

In Venice, the film's ratings have always been among the top.

Just the Golden Lion?
Jiang Wen actually wasn't sure if there was a chance.

That's it, until the closing ceremony, Jiang Wen was invited, which made Jiang Wen breathe a sigh of relief, because it meant that winning the award had become a foregone conclusion.

This is also the unspoken rule of the film festival.

The first awards announced, such as Horizon Unit and Best Documentary, did not make Jiang Wen take any action.

By the time we get to the main competition unit, it's already the finale.

Jury Prize.

Not "Let the Bullets Fly."

Silver Lion Award,
Still not "Let the Bullets Fly."

When the Golden Lion Award is awarded,
Jiang Wen himself was confused.

"Did I win the Golden Lion?"

Jiang Wen himself was a little surprised.

In fact, Jiang Wen also watched other movies, such as "The King of Wrestlers", which are masculine and beautiful, very artistic, and make people want to cry.

But the final jury award went to Alexei German Jr.'s "Paper Soldiers," and "The Wrestler" won the Silver Lion for Best Director.

And "Let the Bullets Fly" unexpectedly won the Golden Lion Award.

"Let us congratulate director Jiang Wen and the crew of "Let the Bullets Fly"!"

After it was repeated on stage, Jiang Wen suddenly realized something.

In 2006, "The Good Man", in 2007, "Lust, Caution", and this year, "Let the Bullets Fly",
A Chinese-language film has won three Golden Lions in a row? !
