China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

【4490 words】

Early morning, Hengdian.

It has been a week since Guan Ling officially announced her role in "Time Traveler" with Liu Yifei.

After Liu Yifei and Guan Ling came out of the hotel together, they got into a car and went to the crew without avoiding people.

But the people in the crew were used to it.

The two of them were lovers in the play, so what's wrong with them discussing the script?
These two review the script every day. We are used to it!
Moreover.

Director Guan is the director!

If I were to cheat on you behind your back and get reported, would I be able to stay in this business?

Director Guan has just shown everyone what it means to be the most powerful person in the entertainment industry.

What happened to Dong Jie?

It was recently officially announced that all contracts for her TV series and movies were terminated.

Forget about any endorsement.

All of them fell like flowers scattered from the sky.

The entire entertainment industry was shaken.

On one hand, people want to have fun, on the other hand, they want to make a living and make money. Many people still have some sense.

So even though Guan Ling and Liu Yifei came in so openly, many people in the crew turned a blind eye.

The reading session has already started, and there are actually a lot of scenes today, so they will start soon.

And they also made a lot of preparations today for yesterday's scenes.

Yesterday, the two of them even filmed a classic scene from the movie.

Guan Ling accidentally met his former secret crush Liu Yifei, and Liu Yifei took the initiative to invite Guan Ling to have a drink.

After drinking, he said he was afraid to go home alone because it was dark.

So Guan Ling sent Liu Yifei back home.

"Ah, we're here."

After the elevator arrived, Liu Yifei turned around and smiled.

This smile had appeared many times in the elevator just now.

Guan Ling hasn't acted in a play for a long time.

But as a director who is familiar with the plot, he certainly knows how the story will play out next.

"Ah."

Guan Ling rubbed the seam of his trousers with one hand, showing his uneasiness. He stared at Liu Yifei's face with his bright eyes, turning into an elevator pervert.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, and then it instantly turned dull.

In an instant, nervousness, embarrassment, love, surprise, and fear of pretending, all kinds of expressions were manifested in him within just a dozen seconds.

If others didn’t know that he was a director, they would probably want to give him the Best Actor award on the spot!
Liu Yifei had been taught by Guan Ling before.

So he was not overshadowed by Guan Ling.

Moreover, Guan Ling had told her before that she could just play the role in her true character.

The so-called true nature, of course, is Liu Yifei's true nature towards Guan Ling.

So Liu Yifei spent several days trying to get the feel for it with Guan Ling, and it came out very naturally during filming.

Her eyes are full of charm and temptation, and there is a sense of anticipation that has never been reflected in the role of "celestial fairy".

"It'll be very comfortable inside."

She didn't say the subject or the object.

But the character played by Guan Ling obviously knew that she was referring to the room.

In fact, this kind of sentiment was present a little bit when she was covered with a cloth in the performance of The Return of the Condor Heroes.

But Liu Yifei's acting skills were still too immature at that time.

The anticipation wasn't quite there.

At this time, the fairy, who had been with Guan Ling for a long time, finally felt like a wife.

This kind of welcome ceremony makes me wish my door was always open.

Guan Ling is not uncommon anyway.

"Yeah, of course."

Guan Ling also shrugged, indicating that was exactly the case.

Then the filming of this plot was completed.

The filming crew all withdrew.

Director Guan and Liu Yifei entered the room.

That is, the filming crew didn’t know what happened next.
If I saw it.

They might cry to death.

Director Guan and the other two actually worked overtime at night!

So dedicated!

Director Guan has always given Liu Yifei the feeling of professionalism!

"Time Traveler" tells the story of an ordinary man who was told at the age of 21 that all the men in his family have the superpower to travel through time and space.

And this man is the character played by Guan Ling.

The process of constantly traveling through time in order to win the heart of the girl you like.

However, there would be some accidents during each journey, which prevented the story from having the best ending.

So every time Guan Ling and Liu Yifei meet, it is the first time for the girl.

The story starts with the girl having her own boyfriend, and then the hero meets the heroine again and again, changes her life and mind, and finally wins her heart.

After the two were together, she traveled through time to help her relatives and her own relatives improve their lives, so that she and her relatives and friends could have a better life every day.

Until one day he understood the true meaning of life and no longer needed super powers.

From this we can see the protagonist's role in the plot. If the two did not know each other, it would be rare for Guan Ling to tease Liu Yifei into the scene like last night. But the reason why this shot was taken first is because it is the simplest shot.

Because the feelings between the two of them really didn't seem like they were meeting for the first time.

The two were together before the filming of this movie started, and have been together ever since.

Liu Yifei's eyes were filled with tears when she looked at Guan Ling.

Obviously, it is too difficult for Liu Yifei to shoot the scene of her first meeting with Guan Ling now.

The two of them always laugh.

To ensure quality.

Guan Ling worked overtime yesterday.

What I mean is that even when Liu Yifei refuses, you still have to do it.

Make it dry.

So yesterday, the two of them made too many and too big moves, which made Liu Yifei angry, and they ended up getting fed up with each other.

In this way, the eyes will not be drawn.

At least during the filming, her eyes weren't sparkling and her expression wasn't charming, but she was able to continue acting.

"Let's start filming while we're still feeling the same."

Guan Ling gave the crew some instructions.

In his opinion.

The current situation between the two of them is just right for those scenes where the girl doesn't like the boy's role.

"Card."

"Yifei, you can't be like this. You have your own boyfriend now. I like you and have a crush on another man like you. You don't know me at all. You look at me as if I were air. Why are you following my gaze?"

"Ka! If you don't want to follow me, don't completely ignore me. I'm almost standing in front of you two. Be a little more natural and look at me."

“Ka! Can you please look at me in a normal way instead of with such admiring eyes?!”

"I told you not to adore me, not to be cruel to me! Cut! Do you only have love and hate for me in your mind? Forget it, you should just ignore me. Next time there's a blind role like Liu Sisi, I'll let you play it." "Don't cry. I shouldn't have said you should play a blind role. It's been a long time since you last filmed a movie. It's my problem. Next time I'll tell you to punch Zhou Xun and kick Zhang Ziyi. Your acting skills will definitely win an Oscar!"

This is the filming of this play.

Guan Ling was completely numb.

There are so many things to do.

When the shooting was almost finished, Guan Ling didn't expect that he would have to work overtime.

I meant to make Liu Yifei uncomfortable, so don't keep asking for it.

It is quite difficult to capture the feeling of a couple meeting for the first time, especially for this kind of relationship between a man and a woman, so actually what Guan Ling wanted was to influence the other person's emotions and make her dissatisfied.

But I didn't expect that good intentions would lead to bad consequences.

Now Guan Ling finally understood what it meant to have a field that could not be damaged by plowing.

In the crew, Guan Ling sighed.

"I really don't have a drop left!"

"I'm tired!"

Liu Yifei said: "I don't care, you yelled at me in the crew today!
You also said that I am suitable to play a blind person with Liu Sisi.

Is my eye acting that bad?

And why don't you say anything about others? Are you deliberately using Liu Sisi to irritate me?
Didn’t you handle it for me yourself? In the past, when she promoted herself directly, she called herself Xiao Liu Yifei.

I think you deserve to be punished.

Squeeze you into a mummy!"

Liu Yifei's nose curled up, her lips slightly pursed, and she pursed her lips to increase the intensity of the punishment.

I'll sit on you to death!

Guan Ling felt a pain in his forehead.

"You have to respect yourself! You have to respect yourself, female star! You've gained weight!"

……

At this point, Wild Tales had been in theaters for a full week.

During this period of time, people witnessed the changes in the life trajectories of Pan Yueming and Dong Jie.

I saw the horror of the art film "Wild Tales".

Although this is an art film, and its competitors at the same time are the Hollywood action film "Jason Bourne" and "The Rise of Tai Chi Heroes" which just released the first part a while ago,
But "Wild Tales" still shows the wildness of this story.

Not only does it firmly hold the championship position, it continues its previous streak of being at the top of the weekly charts, and it is also part of Lingyun Media's vicious circle.

In just one week, it grossed 2.1 million yuan at the box office.

The industry was stunned.

Many people's eyelids couldn't help but twitch.

Early November is generally recognized as a time of death.

Looking forward, the afterglow of the National Day movie season is still hanging over us, and it was Guan Ling’s low-budget Golden Lion Award-winning movie.

From now on, the fierce battle for the Lunar New Year movie season has already begun.

So this period was actually quite awkward.

The film and entertainment industry has not yet entered the lively atmosphere of the Lunar New Year period, and the atmosphere usually drops to freezing point, but this year.

This art film breaks all the subconscious and unspoken rules.

It has become the best performing domestic film in this period.

It even has the quality to surpass imported films.

Although according to the audience's film reviews, "Tai Chi 2" is more humorous and "Jason Bourne" is more visually appealing.

But facing this black comedy written by Guan Ling and directed by Ning Hao.

It's still a level lower.

How can people not sigh?!

"Six stories of revenge out of control, from the self-destruction of an airplane to making love in the ruins of a wedding, reveal the collapse of human nature in a civilized society: rationality is vulnerable in an absurd world, and only madness can be self-redemption. Small things trigger madness, and destruction and rebirth are entangled in blood and fire - destruction, after emptiness, perhaps this is the only antidote to absurdity."

“High score certification! The absurd story hides the edges of human nature, and magic and reality are intertwined. After the excitement, you can still appreciate the deep meaning. It is worth the price of the ticket.”

"This is the most surprising comedy of the year. Six stories are put together without being crowded or rushed. Each story has its own unique laughs. The whole collection is like a cheetah, observing the society with cold eyes. The shots and scenes of each story are relatively independent and innovative. Director Ning Hao is very Almodovar and Quentin Tarantino."

"All the stories are just trying to say this: 'Do you fucking think I'm easy to bully? Wait till I kill you.' Maybe everyone has had enough in real life, and they feel relieved by reading this kind of story, so they give it such a high score. After using the movie to vent their anger, they go back to endure their own lives."

On Douban, the movie’s rating was fixed at nine points just three days after its release.

Although as time went by, a large number of audiences entered the theater, which led to some different comments and a clear C-shaped curve on the score sheet of "Wild Tales".

There are many one-star bad reviews.

But it still cannot affect the sales of this movie!
In the crew of "Tai Chi 2", Stephen Fung's mouth twitched.

He was not very satisfied with the results of Tai Chi 1, but overall it was acceptable because even if he was suppressed, it was by Guan Ling.

After a few years, no one will know clearly.

He can still say one more thing.

"Thinking back to the National Day holiday, Director Guan and I together made 2 billion at the box office!"

Anyway, everyone has something to brag about.

The results of "Tai Chi 2" were so good that he wanted to call his mother for help.

In fact, Stephen Fung had already judged the performance of "Tai Chi 2" and it might not be very good.

Because the reviews for the first one were actually pretty bad.

The second part basically continues the style of the first part, although there are more laughs.

But the story still follows the same idea that Kung Fu is useless.

Isn't it interesting that a Kung Fu movie tells the story of the uselessness of Kung Fu, and there are also surprising video game and anime elements.
In the minds of many viewers, these are not just for visual appeal, but they also serve to promote the development of the story as the climax of the film approaches.

The soundtrack is still dynamic rock, blending with classical music, coupled with the high-speed slow-motion shots of the martial arts movements, the audio-visual experience is excellent.

What is worth mentioning is the kitchen battle designed by martial arts instructor Hong Jingbao in the final stage. He cleverly uses the characteristics of Bagua Plum Blossom Posture and integrates it into the layout of the kitchen. In terms of movements, he focuses on the combination of virtual and real of Tai Chi, and the mutual generation of yin and yang. It is really a pleasure for martial arts fans.

Moreover, the film is clearly developing towards a Hollywood narrative. Fang Zijing, played by Eddie Peng, is more like a unique character in American comics - an immortal villain.

In the first film, he had a childhood of being bullied, his ideals and his large toy Troy were destroyed, and his girlfriend died unexpectedly, which led to the birth of a generation of evil villains.

In the second part, he bears the pain of widowhood and the humiliation of bullying, and vows to seek justice, but is completely defeated by the hero, his wife, father-in-law, and brother-in-law, and is left disabled. When everyone thinks that the villain is about to finish filming and go home, the ending leaves the whole film with the deepest mark of a heroic blockbuster - the villain is sent to the research department for upgrading and transformation, and if he is lucky enough to appear again in the future, he will be an upgraded version.

It also left many viewers dumbfounded.

Hong Kong was previously known as Little Hollywood.

Well-deserved reputation.

But it's really bad!

As for other movies, thrillers performed mediocrely.
Although it coincided with Halloween, many horror films were released, including imported films such as "Provence Horror" from France and domestic films such as "A Weird Love". The two films earned 1297 million and 843 million respectively in the first week, ranking 4th and 7th, which was not outstanding compared with the good results of many previous horror films.

Moreover, for a French thriller, it is neither bloody nor tense, and many viewers don’t find it scary at all.

While some domestic films have been criticized for their thriller scenes, some movie fans believe that the film's obsessive and entangled love scenes are very touching and can even be viewed as a romance film.

This is also a classic of domestic films...everything can be applied to love.

Then, the movie "Cold War" will hold its premiere tomorrow, and Disney's animated blockbuster "Ralph Breaks the Internet" will also be released in 3D format in theaters across the country. The film won the North American box office championship last weekend.

Plus the sensation and shock caused by "Wild Tales".

Therefore, it will remain a big suspense who will be the domestic box office champion in this "unpopular month".

However, these are not what Lingyun Media is considering.

For Wild Tales, they had more than enough publicity.

Next, it is the stage of heading towards the Lunar New Year holiday.

To this end, Chen Guofu took charge and raised the publicity plan for this year's Lunar New Year period to a level never reached in previous years.

Director Guan has already spoken those words to start a war with the directors in the circle.

So no one can escape this fate during the entire Lunar New Year period.

Get down, everyone. (End of this chapter)
