China Entertainment started in 2004

Chapter 235 Who is there?
  "I heard that Director Wang doesn't like drinking either?" Huang Xiaoming looked at Zhou Xun. He had met Wang Shu once before at the Chang C Film Festival.

When Zhou Xun heard this, he smiled and explained: "It's not that he doesn't drink. It's just that he doesn't drink white wine. He still drinks some beer and red wine."

"Do you smoke?" Liu Ruoyin asked curiously.

Zhou Xun shook his head and said, "No."

Liu Ruoyin and Shen Chang looked at each other and said in surprise: "I don't smoke, I only drink a small amount of beer and red wine, and I don't go out to play. I just stay at home and go to bed early."

"Director Wang, he seems to be only 20 years old, right?"

"You started taking care of yourself at such a young age?"

Zhao Yanzi laughed dryly when he heard this.

Wang Shu, she remembers it clearly.

The Best Actress at the Chang C Film Festival should have been hers, and she knew this very well.

But "The Tuner" directed by Wang Shu interfered and Jiang Wenli also participated in the election.

In the end, the best actress can only be won by Jiang Wenli, who won the best actress crown in Cannes and has senior connections in China.

And she stood aside eagerly.

The Best Actress award at the Chang C Film Festival was originally a piece of the puzzle for her to gain a foothold in the film industry.

Now, there is a corner missing.

Qualifications are greatly reduced.

"I don't know what's going on with him, but he's just like this." Zhou Xun said with a smile.

She had previously teased Wang Shu that he looked more like an old man than she did, and she couldn't help but feel happy when she thought of this.

Seeing that what Zhou Xun said was true, Liu Ruoyin and others were surprised and said, "Are there really people in the entertainment industry who don't stay up late, don't go out to play, don't smoke and drink?"

For artists in the entertainment industry, due to the nature of their work, it is common for them to stay up all night, even with friends staying up all night to play.

As for smoking and drinking, not only male artists, but also female artists are in the minority.

As a young director in China and the boss of a film and television company, Wang Shu actually leads such a simple life in private?
  It really surprised Liu Ruoyin, Zhao Yanzi and others.

Such people seem to be a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry.

Although this kind of life is boring, it also shows that Wang Shu will not play around outside!

This is important!

"Haha." Zhou Xun saw the expressions of Liu Ruoyin and others and couldn't help but smile and said: "I have been in contact with Director Wang for a long time in the two dramas "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and "The Witch Youxi" It’s not a big deal, but I’m not the only one who thinks so.”

"Other people on the crew thought so too."

After saying that, he changed his tone and added, "But we guess that Director Wang likes to stay at home because he writes scripts at home."

"For example, "Time Traveler" was probably written by Director Wang while he was in the hotel when he was directing "The Legend of Zhen Huan"."

"At that time, Director Han from China Film Group came to the set to meet with Director Wang."

"Then Director Wang, who didn't socialize much in the first place, became even more non-social. We actors in the crew often ate together late at night, but he never came when we called him."

"I found out later that he was writing a script in the hotel."

"I didn't know what script he was writing before, but later we guessed it would be "The Time Traveler"."

These words are quite convincing, and Wang Shu's high output of works also corresponds to these.

Liu Ruoyin, Huang Xiaoming and others suddenly realized that behind Wang Shu's high productivity, he actually sacrificed time to enjoy life.

Others are playing, but he is sitting at home creating.

This kind of self-discipline and perseverance, if he is not great, who is?
  "How do you know it's "Space Traveler" and not "The Witch in Suit", which you starred in, or some other TV series directed by Director Wang?" Shen Chang was slightly confused.

When Zhou Xun heard this, he gave her a stupid look, and then explained: "Although the TV series directed by Director Wang are also scripts written by him, except for the first one "Nine-Tailed Fox", the following ones Several TV series are independently produced by his company."

"I would like to ask, is it necessary for an independently produced TV series to suddenly rush into work after meeting with Director Han of China Film Group Corporation?"

"Although Director Wang doesn't socialize much in the first place, when we were on the set, even if we called him a few times, he would still go out for supper with us to save face."

"In the back, I can't shout no matter how much I shout."

"Then I found out that he was writing a script, and then I found out that it should be "Space Traveler"."

Speaking of "Time Traveler", several people invariably thought of Sun Li, Liu Yan, Wei Zongwan and others.

These people are all very popular because of this movie.

Especially Wei Zongwan, who plays the role of the father in the movie, is really good.

When Shen Chang heard this, he had nothing to say. According to Zhou Xun's inference, Wang Shu should indeed be writing the script of "Time Traveler" at that time.

A quick script, it actually earned 2.7 million box office after being filmed.

It’s really awesome!

At this moment, not only her, but Zhao Yanzi, Huang Xiaoming and others also thought of this.

If "Lovers in Time and Space" was created when Wang Shu was directing "The Legend of Zhen Huan", then going from nothing to 2.7 million in such a short period of time not only shows that "Lovers in Time and Space" was a quick script written by Wang Shu, but also It also shows that Wang Shu’s directing skills are extremely proficient.

Thinking of this, Wang Shu's evaluation in the hearts of several people became much higher.

Huang Xiaoming had a vague feeling that although Wang Shu was young, he might be more powerful than Feng Xiaogang.

Although Zhao Yanzi had complaints about Wang Shu, at this moment, he had to admit that Wang Shu was really capable.

"Xun'er, I haven't asked you yet, why did you get the role of "The Witch in Plain Clothes"?" Zhao Yanzi asked curiously.

Although there are many rumors about this matter in the entertainment industry, as long as the person involved has not answered it personally, it is an unsolved mystery.

Liu Ruoyin and others were also very curious. They knew that Zhou Xun had finally entered the film industry and then starred in a TV series, which was really a move that lowered the quality of a film actor.

I didn't have a good opportunity to ask before, so I just wanted to hear Zhou Xun's answer this time.

Zhou Xun saw everyone looking at her curiously, and then smiled and said, "What's so confusing about this?"

"Having worked with "The Legend of Zhen Huan", I already know that Director Wang is a very powerful director."

"Then he came to me with the script of "The Witch in Suit".

"I did hesitate at the time. After reading the script, I knew it would turn out well, so I agreed to it."

"Now, the facts prove that I was right."

""The Witch in Suit" was not only broadcast simultaneously on four satellite TV stations, but the ratings of each TV station were also very high."

"And my popularity has increased a lot because of this."

Zhou Xun will not disclose the real reason.

And the current consequential theory also proves that she is right. Although "Witch in Sui Yi" is an idol drama, it is a popular idol drama.

Zhou Xun is now a movie actor, and not only does he not lose money by starring in such a popular idol drama, he even makes a lot of money.

Of course, if the ratings of "The Witch in Suit" are tepid after it is aired, it will have an irreversible negative effect on Zhou Xun's worth in the film industry.

Seeing that everyone seemed to believe it but not believe it, Zhou Xun then said: "If the idol drama script written by Director Wang is not good, why would Fan Binbin be willing to star in it?"

"How could Sun Li and others be willing to work with Director Wang to create an idol drama with the same cast again?"

"I wonder if you have watched "The Witch in Suit"? This drama is different from the traditional idol drama about a prince falling in love with Cinderella, but a story about a poor boy and a rich girl."

"They are both idol dramas, but the settings are reversed."

"My eyes lit up when I saw this setting, and I also believe in Director Wang's ability."

"In addition, we have cooperated before and have a good relationship. It's hard for him to come here without giving him face."

"That's it. I agreed to his invitation."

"The current ratings of "Witch in Sui" are enough to prove that I made the right choice."

In this era, there is no drama with a female perspective as the main perspective that can guarantee ratings.

This is because, for the time being, it has not been analyzed that the audience who watch the TV series is mostly women.

As time goes by, this trend will become more and more obvious.

"The Witch in Suit" is about a rich girl paired with a poor boy. Whether it is the reversal of the routine that is eye-catching or the setting of the heroine being a rich girl, it can immerse female audiences.

This is one of the reasons why "Witch in Suit" is obviously a TV series with incorrect views, but its ratings have been extremely high since it was introduced to the mainland.

After Zhou Xun finished speaking, he continued, "If it's just "The Witch in Plain Clothes", you still don't understand."

"Then if you watch "My Love from the Star" starring Fan Binbin, you will understand better."

""My Love from the Star" is an idol drama, but it is also not a story about a prince and Cinderella, but a story between an alien male protagonist and a big star female protagonist."

Seeing that Liu Ruoyin and others were surprised when they heard this, Zhou Xun then smiled and said, "So...this is why both Fan Binbin and I are willing to agree to Director Wang's invitation."

"Although it is an idol drama script, the idol drama script created by Director Wang is really novel and really eye-catching."

"It's obvious at a glance that the quality of this script is excellent, and no one will miss it."

"My Love from the Star" has already been broadcast on local channels. Zhou Xun watched it a few times and secretly compared it with "The Witch in Suit", which she starred in.

Although she only briefly watched "My Love from the Star", she wanted to star in "My Love from the Star" more than "Witch Sui".

Because the setting of "My Love from the Star" is more novel and interesting.

Zhou Xun had no doubts that Wang Shu could create the script for "My Love from the Star".

Last year's "My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox" was a fantasy idol drama.

This year's "Time Traveler" and then "My Love from the Star" are very consistent with the scripts that Wang Shu can write.

Liu Ruoyin and Shen Chang looked at each other. They had not watched "The Witch in Suit" and "My Love from the Star", but now that they heard what Zhou Xun said, they seemed to understand that even if Wang Shu was writing an idol drama script, It is also an extremely excellent script.

And produced by Wang Shu, it is also an extremely excellent TV series.

Zhao Yanzi had watched "The Witch in Plain Clothes" before. Regardless of the plot, the costumes in the play gave her a very avant-garde and advanced feeling.

Looking at other modern domestic dramas, Fu Hua Dao not only looks cheap, but also very vulgar.

This is also one of the things that she thinks is eye-catching about "The Witch in Plain Clothes".

"A story about aliens and big stars?" Chen Kun was surprised, what kind of setting is this.

Aliens look weird and can fall in love with big stars?
  Is this big star going to talk about it?
  So outrageous?

As a good friend of Chen Kun, Zhou Xun naturally knew the meaning of Chen Kun's words, and immediately said speechlessly: "The alien is just a setting for the male protagonist. The male protagonist himself looks the same as an earthling, but in the setting, he comes from Beyond Earth.”

"Uh" Chen Kun understood immediately when he heard Zhou Xun's explanation.

Huang Xiaoming and others also realized one after another.

At first I thought it was a bit unbelievable, but after I thought about it, it turned out to be this.

Lu Yi answered from the side, "It's normal for Director Wang to make a science fiction movie like "Space Traveler" and then a science fiction TV series."

After hearing this, several people nodded.

Wang Shu is the director who made "Space Traveler", and then made a science fiction TV series with an alien setting. Not only is it not surprising, it is also logical.

After all, it was only Wang Shu's imagination that liked to create such scripts.

Several people chatted about this for a while. After these topics were over, Zhao Yanzi suddenly asked: "Xun'er, I heard that Director Wang's movie will be shot soon. When will you join the team?"

It has long been known to everyone that Wang Shu collaborated with China Film Group to produce a blockbuster.

Although the news about the starring actors has not been disclosed to the outside world, there is no airtight wall in the entertainment industry.

Zhou Xun, it was reported not long ago that the role of the second female lead was confirmed.

As for the female lead.
  Since Zhou Xun is the second female lead, Gong Li's casting as the first female lead is tantamount to being confirmed.

Chen Kun, Liu Ruoyin and others were also curious about this question and looked at her one after another.

Zhou Xun thought they were all friends, and since the news had already been spread, he didn't hide it too much, and replied with a smile: "It will probably take another two or three days. We have to wait for Director Wang's notification of the specific time. .”

"Director Wang has a lot of things to do. He has almost finished handling the things at hand. It should be the day when the film is started."

"Who are the actors?" Shen Chang asked curiously.

The new film directed by Wang Shu may be a blockbuster with a cast and investment scale second only to "Kung Fu King".

Not only Shen Chang, Liu Ruoyin, Huang Xiaoming, Zhao Yanzi and others are all paying attention to this.

"The King of Kung Fu" is a co-production produced by Huayi.

As artists from Huayi, Zhou Xun, Huang Xiaoming and others were unable to get a role.

This proves that it is even more difficult for other artists to get roles.

It also proves that artists who do not have enough popularity or energy can only be envied from the sidelines.

In contrast, the blockbusters jointly produced by Wang Shu and China Film are different.

Any actor can get a role.

Liu Ruoyin, Shen Chang and others also heard that Chen Kun went to audition, but was rejected in the end.

When Zhou Xun heard the inquiry from his friends, he thought that the movie would be shot soon and the news about the starring actors would be reported by the media, so he responded: "Gong Li, me, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Hanyu, etc."
