China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 238 The Entertainment Circle in August
(The previous chapter was blocked! Another four to five hundred words were deleted from this chapter. Gray history is not allowed to be written!)
Liu's negative press is getting worse.

Hong Kong media once again showed off its power, what about an explicit first night, a dragon in bed, and daddy showing off his treasures.

All kinds of incomprehensible words caused public opinion to agitate, and all the melon-eating people in the mainland joined the melon-eating army.

At this point, the matter has completely evolved from entertainment gossip to a social topic.

……

Under this situation, Tsui Hark was at a loss and called Guan Ling.

What should I do now with the "Detective Dee" series?
Liu's state has been very bad recently, and Tsui Hark now feels that using him is a bit too negative.

"Director Guan, Liu has been busy with his own affairs recently, which has had a great impact on my film shooting. From my point of view, it's okay to change. But after all, this is the Di Renjie you personally selected. Now this Can you give me an idea about the situation?"

Tsui Hark did not make his own decisions. Since Qian Yanqiu joined the editing and directing of the film script, he has been in constant collision and communication with Qian Yanqiu.

Tsui Hark did find his own shortcomings.

But Guan Ling also thought of Tsui Hark's anecdote.

When Guan Ling chose Liu, he forgot that there was such a thing.

I always feel like this old guy is talking about himself.

Of course Tsui Hark was no exception, but Guan Ling had a bigger reputation, so he was a little suppressed and didn't dare to have an attack.

Liu caught up with the good times.

He even made a lot of changes to Director Guan's script, and in Tsui Hark's opinion, the changes were quite good.

Guan Ling had met Shi Nansheng before, and it was obvious that this woman was not a good person. It is said that in addition to Tsui Hark's movies, production, distribution and promotion were all shouldered by this woman.

I'm not very good at telling stories.

After all, several of his previous movies had suffered heavy losses at the box office, and Guan Ling was originally interested in giving him the "Detective Dee" series.

This matter about Liu is really not a big deal. He takes the lead in lying and has a bad habit. Emotionally complicated and hurtful to others.

As a talented director, after his first marriage ended, when he went to work in Hong Kong, Mr. Xu met his current wife Shi Nansheng.

"More than half of the filming was done."

"The cost of replacing people now is unbearable," Guan Ling said.

But now, after all, print media is still in power, and the Internet has not yet spread to the point where everyone knows it.

Qian Yanqiu's logic and thoroughness were much better than his.

After all, these things did not happen to Guan Ling, and no one knew what his relationship was with those women.

"How was Liu's performance?"

As Old Monster Xu talked, he began to express his loyalty to Guan Ling.

But I did think of this result, which shows that I still understand Director Guan! In this circle, there are many things that step on people's feet, but few things that help people. And Director Guan is the one who is willing to help others. "

Only later did I become completely convinced.

But now that the matter has come to this, Guan Ling can only think about it for a moment.

If these behaviors were carried out five years later, Gao Lu would be considered a risky artist. Liangliang is a high probability event.

It can be said that this is the last "fast-moving consumer goods era" in the entertainment industry.

Mr. Xu is in charge of directing and Shi Nansheng is in charge of management. Everyone performs their duties and supports each other.

Guan Ling thought for a while, but still didn't want to replace Liu.

In fact, apart from his emotions, Liu is also a leader in the entertainment industry, both as a person and as an actor.

Then the two worked hard together in career and family, and established their own film studio.

"Okay Director Guan, I feel relieved after what you said. I will have someone contact Liu and ask him to handle these matters quickly and come back to film.

"How far is the filming progress now?"

After that, there were constant scandals about Xu's relationship with Wang Zuxian in "A Chinese Ghost Story" and Ye Qianwen in "Swordsman".

Guan Ling himself doesn't care that much.

Especially for the name Dee Renjie, no matter what magical movie or fantasy movie is in the name, the most important thing is the story.

So Tsui Hark was a little dissatisfied at first, feeling that Guan Ling wanted to decentralize power, which the director hated the most.

Guan Ling listened with amusement as Old Monster Xu relied on his old age to show off his old age.

It wasn't until 1996, after eighteen years of love, that the two got married.

Shi Nansheng did not embarrass him.

Tsui Hark said: "Just like you gave me the "Detective Dee" series, you also gave me a hand. I am confident that I can make this movie worth 400 million or even more."

"But it's true that Andy has trouble with women and makes it so ugly. In relationships, he is really not a thing."

"His acting skills, Andy's acting skills are incredible." Tsui Hark told the truth. During the filming, Liu's acting was still very good.

Guan Ling didn't mind giving him a hand.

"My suggestion is to let Liu give a full response to the matter, and then all the filming will be done on the crew. Don't be affected by these things."

Before getting married, Shi Nansheng had just broken up with him and ran to the United States. Then Mr. Xu traveled thousands of miles to find his wife for love, so he returned to China and held a wedding decisively.

Not to mention whether it is for love or career.

Things ended well.

The most shameless thing is that Mr. Xu adheres to the "DINK" concept, and Shi Nansheng fully respects it.

And as you get older, you lose the possibility of having children.

As a result, in the end, the newcomer came to the position with another child in his belly...

Hang up the phone with Tsui Hark.

Guan Ling made a phone call to Liu.

"Hello, Director Guan. You are in France, right? I didn't expect you to see a joke."

The voice over there was obviously tired, but Guan Ling still didn't dare not answer the call.

"Stop hiding, respond quickly, and after you respond, hurry back to the set to film." Guan Ling said, "If someone takes off your fans, take them off. If someone scolds you, just accept it. Filming the scene well is better than anything else."

"Thank you, Director Guan."

Liu was so moved that he almost cried, "Before I answered the phone just now, I thought the "Detective Detective" series was going to be replaced..."

He knows better than anyone how big an impact this matter has.

"I'm really sorry. My behavior may affect the movie. I really didn't expect this." Liu was still apologizing.

"No need to apologize, just lower the salary." Guan Ling said with a smile, "There are still more than ten movies to come. Now I take this opportunity to lower your salary. It can save me a lot of money."

Liu couldn't laugh or cry.

"Don't tell me, Director Guan. Once this comes out, my commercial value will definitely drop, and the remuneration quotation may really drop."

Guan Ling nodded.

"That's just right!" Guan Ling said, "Looking for a woman whose salary is less than three million, then I hope you can do more things."

"Director Guan, if you say anything else, I will cry."

Liu didn't chat for a few words and was amused by Guan Ling.

After hanging up the phone, Liu felt even more grateful. Guan Ling said a few words, but there were only two points of information revealed. One was that there would be no replacements in this drama, and the other was that Guan Ling had no roles in the subsequent scenes. The idea of ​​substitution. Liu himself knew very well how much confirmation Guan Ling's words gave him in his current situation.

Liu clenched his fists with firm eyes.

He was going to hold a press conference to talk everything through.

Then he went back to the set.

Liu himself didn't even know that because of his incident, many people in the entertainment industry were panicking.

Just this week.

There are already four couples who have announced that they are married.

Li Ming counts as one, Xia Yu also counts as one, and the rest are not well-known. But it also caused a lot of criticism in the entertainment industry.

What, getting married together, right?

Or are you just trying to hide your marriage for me?
……

Liu Yifei has been in a normal mood recently.

But the behavior is wild.

He even took the initiative to ask Guan Ling to give up protective measures, which made Guan Ling a little panicked. After all, the filming of "Hurricane Rescue 3" had not started yet.

Guan Ling didn't know what caused Liu Yifei's sudden change.

But he discovered that Liu Yifei had suddenly become a big name recently. In front of Liu Yan, she even pretended to be the top of the four actresses and the top grossing box office star in movies starring mainland actresses.

If I don't know, I was surprised when I said it.

Liu Yifei is now the number one actress at the box office in the Mainland. Her two dramas, "Hearing Girl" and "Hurricane Rescue", have established her current throne.

Not to be outdone, Liu Yan said that she is currently the number one actress at the box office.

This is true. With four shots, Liu Yan in "2012" won the honor of more than million US dollars worldwide.

So now she is the number one Chinese actress in the box office. It's a pity that it's not the starring role.

The two of them really got into a fight.

Liu Yifei said that she was still starring in "Inception", and Liu Yan's face turned green...

Guan Ling looked a little scared.

He always felt that sooner or later the two of them would fight each other.

……

Li An has called Guan Ling several times.

"Director Guan, it's okay if the judges don't do it, and it's okay if the award presenters don't do it. You're in Europe, so it's always okay to come to Italy to sit with me, right? You'll be back in a day or two at most."

As jury president at this year's Venice Film Festival.

Ang Lee's invitation to Guan Ling was very sincere.

"You won the Palme d'Or in Cannes and the Golden Lion in Venice, but you're really not interested? Why don't you come and say hello? Come to Venice next year to say hello and show your face to people here."

"If you don't make fun of me, then you have nothing to do."

Guan Ling said.

"This is not because we are getting close and we want you to support the scene. Chinese-language films have won the Golden Lion Award for three consecutive years, and this year there is not even one in the main competition."

Ang Lee said, "Huang Bo, your star in "Shoplifters", filmed "Bullfighting" in the Horizon category.

There is also "1428" shot by Du Haibin. I remember it also seemed to be Horizon.

This is directly different from the number of films in previous years. I do feel a bit disappointed. "

"We have made Chinese-language films for three consecutive years, but this year we can't get any Chinese-language films. Who wants to be cannon fodder?" Guan Ling said.

"What you said is true. Marco Muller is here, and he doesn't dare to choose Chinese films." Ang Lee said.

This old man loves Chinese-language films to his core, but even if a Chinese-language film enters the main competition this year, he would not dare.

"Then what am I going to do? It's better to film here." Guan Ling refused very simply.

Ang Lee was helpless, "I've heard it all in foreign countries. Will there be any new dramas after Director Guan?"

"There is a Chinese science fiction film. There is also one that is competing for awards." Guan Ling did not deny this.

"Chinese... science fiction film?" Ang Lee asked, did he hear it wrong?
"Why did you pause?" Guan Ling smiled.

"Can Chinese-language films now also include science fiction films?" Ang Lee himself was no longer confident.

He believed in Guan Ling, but he didn't believe it could be done in China, so the machine almost shut down.

"Not for the sake of box office, the filming speed will not be slow when the time comes. The main reason is to impress Chinese directors."

"Your layout." Ang Lee praised, "I also have a new drama here. I will prepare for the Olympics when the time comes. But it is a bit difficult to film, and I have been very worried recently. Learning to dive with my two children can give me some relief. Change your mood."

Guan Ling thought for a moment and narrowed his eyes.

He probably knows which movie Ang Lee is going to make.

Ang Lee was about to start filming the movie that would completely establish him.

Guan Ling did not copy the script for this play, because this play originally belonged to the novel of the same name, and had long been noticed by Hollywood, so it was difficult for Guan Ling to start.

In the end, the producers and 20th Century Fox personally appointed Ang Lee to shoot.

The script has just been completed and Ang Lee has just been finalized, but filming has not yet started.

"You come to Italy and sit with me, and then I'm going to India. There's a very big audition there.

I heard from the company's casting director Ivy that about three thousand people will participate. So I thought, until next year, I will probably stay in India. "

As soon as these words came out, Guan Ling was even more certain that Ang Lee was going to film the movie "Life of Pi".

The style of this drama is very strong, otherwise Guan Ling would have to come over.

It's just that this drama takes too long and is only suitable for an artist like Ang Lee who can sit on the bench and endure loneliness.

Not suitable for a time traveler like Guan Ling.

Guan Ling remembers that this movie brought Ang Lee his second Oscar for Best Director.

Apart from a slight regret that it failed to win the Best Picture, it was considered the biggest winner at the Oscars that year.

"I also want to thank you for Tang Wei. She called me and said you chose an amazing script for her."

Guan Ling was unhappy after hearing this.

Who are you to thank me for Tang?

Tang Wei himself had dedicated his life to love a long time ago.

Guan Ling said:
"You don't have to thank me for Tang Wei, she has already thanked me."

"Besides, there are no Chinese-language films at the Venice Film Festival this time, so I won't join in the fun. After a year of busy work, I will try for the Golden Lion Award."

"Then we can make an appointment to have a drink then." Li An became excited.

"It's okay to have a drink, but you have to be careful in India and drink some Ganges water." Guan Ling joked, "I heard that the Ganges water over there is life-saving."

"Shall I bring you some?"

On the phone, the two of them laughed.
