Full-time actor

"Hua Jun".

"General Dong is looking for you."

Liu Yifei had just finished tidying her training clothes when she heard those words, and her expression clearly showed some panic.

Over the past few days of filming, Liu Yifei has been getting into the swing of things.

Especially with Chen Yu's guidance, she was able to further improve her acting skills.

Upon hearing the summons, Liu Yifei quickly got up.

"The Flower Army has arrived, General."

"Come in."

Zhen Zidan didn't look up, but the order he gave made Liu Yifei outside the door feel extremely uneasy.

Without a moment's hesitation, she walked straight into the military tent.

"Hua Jun".

"You seem to be hiding something?"

Faced with the blunt question, Liu Yifei was speechless for a moment.

"General."

Before Liu Yifei could finish speaking, Zhen Zidan interrupted her, staring at her expressionlessly with an air of intimidation.

The conversation between the two appeared calm, but in reality, it was turbulent beneath the surface.

have to say.

Working alongside highly qualified actors is truly a pleasure.

Donnie Yen is currently at the peak of his career, and his portrayal of Ip Man has established him as a grandmaster in people's minds.

"I had my suspicions when I first met you."

"But now I'm sure."

Faced with Zhen Zidan's words, Liu Yifei couldn't help but take a deep breath.

At this moment, it is necessary to emphasize the fear and panic she feels.

You should know that she is now burdened with the responsibility of joining the army in place of her father, but this was a mistake from the very beginning.

She kept her gender a secret from everyone.

If they are found out, the consequences are predictable.

Actually, I have a secret too—

The monitor zoomed in on Zhen Zidan's face, and her expressionless face created an immense sense of pressure.

“I know your father.”

"He was an excellent soldier, and that quality is reflected in you."

“I can see the shadow of his sword.”

"But those influences might be too heavy; you can't let your father's shadow limit you."

Liu Yifei's breath hitched.

She clearly conveyed the tension that came with hearing those words.

In general.

The questioning from Zhen Zidan was not a personal grievance, but rather a gradual and progressive one.

"General."

"Hua Jun, your strength is clearly very great."

Why hide it?

Zhen Zidan's question left Liu Yifei speechless for a moment.

After a long pause, he finally spoke in a low voice:

"I...I don't know."

"I hope you will take this seriously. I cannot accept any weaklings in the military."

The conversation abruptly ended.

In the scene just now, Liu Yifei portrayed the changes in mentality quite brilliantly when faced with doubt and inner struggle.

In comparison, Liu Yifei's acting skills are already widely recognized.

The interrogation scene finally came to an end, and the tense atmosphere that had just been drawn up instantly vanished.

As for the upcoming scenes, there will be more action sequences.

Simultaneously.

Li Jie and Gong Li are about to appear on stage, and Chen Yu has also made changes to their scenes together.

In her previous life, Gong Li was a villain with witchcraft abilities who could transform into an eagle.

This kind of modification, which incorporates Western fantasy elements, will not be accepted by Chinese audiences.

It's worth noting that the legend of Mulan has been passed down for a very long time, but there has never been any supernatural villainous character in it.

From beginning to end.

The core of Mulan's story is a narrative of filial piety and heroism, and it has never been related to fantasy or adventure.

The most suitable tastes for Chinese audiences have never been those within the framework of Western fantasy stories.

This explains why the box office was dismal in the previous life.

In this instance, Gong Li is still a powerful female villain, but her presence leans more towards overwhelming strength.

When Mulan was first being prepared, Chen Yu had some reservations about both the story framework and the later filming.

After all, the previous version of "Mulan" did not resonate with everyone.

If Liu Yifei is to achieve complete independence, there must be a breakthrough in the plot.

Besides.

While catering to domestic tastes, this work must also shine on the international stage.

During this period of filming, Chen Yu was amazed by Liu Yifei's performance.

It was something I had never seen before.

at night.

Liu Yifei looked at Chen Yu with a pained expression.

The person in front of me is still working on the post-production of "Joker," and has been doing so almost every day and night, working overtime to finish these tasks.

During the day, we need to film "Mulan".

As for the evening, it was to check on the post-production of "Joker".

The two had actually discussed this issue before filming.

Chen Yu originally thought that "Joker" and "Mulan" might clash in release dates, and if that were the case, he was thinking of inviting Zhang Yimou to film it.

Fortunately, if we squeeze in the time, we can make it.

However, this caused Chen Yu great distress.

As Chen Yu was looking at the computer in front of her, her slender hand touched his temple, causing him to look up.

"husband."

"I've been working non-stop these past few days, how about taking a day off today?"

Liu Yifei was truly heartbroken.

After filming during the day, they couldn't rest like the other actors.

For almost the entire day, I was spinning like a top.

"I'm fine, don't worry about me."

"It's just a matter of reviewing their post-production work to see where there are any changes that need to be made."

With Liu Yifei's massage, the headache seemed to be relieved a little.

Chen Yu took Liu Yifei's hand and then pulled her into his arms.

"Feeling sorry for me?"

Chen Yu and Liu Yifei rested their heads together; they were each other's most important people and teammates who fought side by side.

Liu Yifei was naturally unwilling to put Chen Yu in such a high-intensity work state every day.

only.

She had no way to deal with it.

"I just don't want to see you so tired."

After hearing Liu Yifei's words, Chen Yu, who had lived two lives, was momentarily stunned.

Subconsciously, they feel the urge to adopt an old-fashioned, didactic approach.

In fact.

Who can live in this world without feeling tired?
Just like in his previous life, he worked himself to the bone to finally win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actor at the age of 40.

Before his dream could be realized, he was gone.

Compared to this life, his current busyness makes him feel more fulfilled.

Only when he has something to do will he feel that he truly exists.

This situation is arguably the happiest moment for him right now.

but.

Having said all that, Liu Yifei probably still can't understand these feelings.

People can never truly experience what they feel in the present moment; only at some point years later can they have the opportunity to recall the past.

He confided his innermost thoughts to Liu Yifei, who nodded in agreement.

This has at least provided some relief.

"Then I'll stay with you."

The nights in New Zealand are quiet and gentle, occasionally accompanied by birdsong and the sounds of insects flitting through the grass.

Beautiful and eternal.

***
imperial capital.

At 8 a.m., the first batch of teaser posters for "Aftershock" were released by major mainstream media outlets.

In an instant, long-forgotten memories were reopened.

The poster of Zhang Zifeng shedding tears in the ruins brought tears to everyone's eyes.

The earthquake of 2008 seems like it happened just yesterday.

Along with the release of the poster, Yu Xin announced that a press conference for the first trailer would be held on April 15, 2010.

It's clear that this movie, which coincides with a disaster, is about to be released.

To know.

Only two years have passed since 2008.

When "Aftershock" reappeared before the public, it undoubtedly evoked feelings of awe and complex emotions.

They recalled what happened back then.

If Chen Yu hadn't promptly reported the problem to the Earthquake Bureau and contributed 20 billion to support Wenzhou, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

In an instant.

This matter is being hotly discussed across the internet.

The media seized the opportunity, especially since Chen Yu had faced a lot of criticism during the filming of this movie.

Many people believe he is over-exploiting the disaster.

Even though Chen Yu was preparing to film "Aftershock" before the Wenchuan earthquake occurred.

But this did not stop the discussions.

However, Chen Yu's subsequent actions earned everyone's admiration.

They invested heavily in post-disaster reconstruction, and the entire process was completely transparent and without any concealment.

So much so that the moment the poster for "Aftershock" was released, those who had received Chen Yu's help in the past showed up to support it.

Publicity from major mainstream media outlets is also indispensable.

The poster for "Aftershock" has been revealed for the first time; we have never forgotten the pain of that tragedy!

[23 seconds, 32 years: the instant of disaster and the long psychological aftershocks!]

Chen Yu's first epic disaster novel, *Tangshan Earthquake*, focuses on the trauma caused by the earthquake!

【…】

obviously.

People are both excited and somewhat fearful about this movie, as it undoubtedly reopens painful memories for them.

In fact.

If it weren't for Chen Yu, the pain would have been even more intense.

"23 seconds, 32 years, those words really resonate with me."

"I hope we are not exploiting everyone's suffering."

"Don't worry, Chen Yu won't do that."

"I support Brother Yu. If he makes a good film, it might serve as a warning to future generations."

Netizens are discussing it extensively.

Before this, people were discussing when "Aftershock" would be released.

After all, more than a year has passed since filming ended, yet there has been no response.

Although people are somewhat reluctant to talk about the disaster that happened, some of the survivors have a stronger desire to share their experiences with others than to express their personal fears.

They hope people can face the disaster squarely.

……

Huayi.

The news that "Aftershock" is about to be released has been widely circulated.

It was hard for the Wang brothers, Zhonglei and Zhongjun, not to be alarmed. After learning the news, Wang Zhonglei couldn't help but feel worried.

"this--"

"They've only released the poster; the release date hasn't even been confirmed yet."

After hearing his younger brother's words, Wang Zhongjun frowned slightly.

They also had a movie they wanted to release next, but they didn't expect that Chen Yu's "Aftershock" would be promoted recently.

"What about our movie? Do we still need to promote it?"

In this regard.

Wang Zhongjun did not respond immediately.

They had hoped to turn things around with their next project, but if it clashes with Chen Yu's "Aftershock," the situation might not be so good.

After all, as a disaster drama, it is bound to resonate with the audience.

In this situation, it's unlikely that any work could compete with it.

Plus.

When the film is released, even if Chen Yu doesn't actively discuss this issue, the media will focus on the 20 billion yuan that Chen Yu donated at the time.

"fine."

"Fortunately, we haven't started promoting it yet. As long as the movie's release date doesn't clash with 'Aftershock,' it'll be fine."

In general, with a little thought, one can guess the approximate release date of "Aftershock".

It was just a few days before and after the Tangshan earthquake.

"This guy—"

"Even if the person is not in mainland China, their spirit still lingers."

Even though it was filmed in New Zealand, the slightest thing can make it to the top of the trending searches.

Others would probably envy this.

Seeing his younger brother say this, Wang Zhongjun did not continue the discussion in accordance with his wishes.

once Upon a time.

Chen Yu was still a minor character who needed to rely on their resources, and now he can't even remember when his reputation started to grow stronger.

As for "Bruce Lee" and "The Dark Knight" from the previous two years, they directly boosted his popularity to an unprecedented level.

It would be a lie to say I'm not jealous.

However, they were currently powerless to do anything about it. Seeing Chen Yu and Yu Xin's strength growing stronger and stronger, they had no choice but to appoint them.

"In the next two years, Chen Yu's popularity will definitely be unmatched."

After hearing Wang Zhongjun's words, Wang Zhonglei's expression turned somewhat gloomy.

but.

Even though he was resentful, he could only swallow his anger.

Auckland at this moment.

Liu Yifei had just finished filming an action scene. Her armor was soaked with sweat, and her beautiful face was covered in dust, which only added to her unique charm.

Ring ring—

Just as Chen Yu was about to approach Liu Yifei, the phone rang at that opportune moment.

Only when I looked over did I notice the flashing notes above.

It's Yang Lu.

The two had contacted each other a couple of days ago to discuss everything related to "Tangshan Earthquake".

"Brother Yu."

"The teaser poster for 'Aftershock' has already been released, and now the internet is full of discussions about the release date."

Yang Lu had expected to receive a lot of complaints and obstruction.

after all.

Both the 1976 and 2008 earthquakes are nightmares that no one wants to relive.

No one wants to reopen their wounds.

However, the audience's reaction still surprised Yang Lu somewhat.

Even with some skepticism, the vast majority of people still hope that this film can serve as a warning to future generations.

There is also a group of people.

They greatly praised Chen Yu's actions at the time.

Liu Yifei naturally heard the conversation and then tapped on her phone.

as predicted.

Most people are talking about the 2008 earthquake.

Her thoughts drifted away, and Liu Yifei seemed to return to that unforgettable moment. (End of Chapter)
