China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 349 "Gone Girl" was screened and received unexpected reviews
Chen Kaige's reaction surprised Chen Hong.

She originally thought that she would have to put in some effort to do some ideological work for Chen Kaige before he could accept Li Yu's suggestion.

I never thought it was so simple.

Before she even started, Chen Kaige had already figured it out.

This is very uncharacteristic of Chen Kaige and does not conform to Chen Kaige’s usual style of doing things.

Chen Kaige had already noticed Chen Hong's disbelieving look. He said a bit self-deprecatingly: "Director Li asked me just now if I thought "The Promise" was great. To be honest, I was a little annoyed at first. .

Afterwards, I am no longer angry, I am even somewhat grateful to him now.

After my dad left, no one dared to criticize me for many years.

Everyone around me has been pandering to me over the years, including you.

Even if I take a picture of a piece of shit, you will blow this piece of shit into the sky.

The general content is that Chen Kaige listened to Li Yu's opinions and let the movie "Gone Girl" first meet the audience in the form of on-demand screenings.

That's why Chen Kaige said famous quotes that will only be understood by the audience ten years later.

He once dared to tell Zhang Yingmou in front of Cheng Long and Da Tiantian that if the script was changed according to Zhang Yingmou's ideas, the audience would definitely make a kneeling statue of Zhang Yingmou and place it next to Qin Hui to keep him company.

Li Yu is not afraid of offending Zhang Yingmou, why should he be afraid of offending Chen Kaige?

Now it is they who want to play with Li Yu, not Li Yu who wants to play with them.

I should really listen to the audience. "

"I'm just telling the truth, what Chen Kaige understands as a good movie is not necessarily what the audience understands as a good movie.

"Brother Yu, will it hurt him a little too much if you talk like that?"

I couldn't understand it at the time, but now I finally understand.

If he can't understand my good intentions, forget it. It doesn't matter if he hates me, and I'm not afraid of offending him. "

What's the point of criticizing Chen Kaige's "The Promise" as a bad movie? None of them criticized Zhang Yingmou for being so cruel.

Looking at the current entertainment industry, there are really not many people Li Yu is afraid of.

For example, "The Promise", maybe when the audience criticized "The Promise" as a bad movie, everyone around Chen Kaige also told him that "The Promise" was a good movie, and everyone thought so.

My suggestions for screening are also very pertinent. If he listens to it, forget it if he doesn't.

Chen Kaige felt that he had sobered up a lot after being scolded by Li Yu today.

People who live in an environment full of flattery all year round will really regress and gradually become disconnected from the outside world.

Li Yu should be the person in Chen Kaige's circle who dared to point his nose in front of him and point out his mistakes for so many years.

How could I realize my mistake in such an environment?
I once saw someone say that "Farewell My Concubine" was not filmed by me at all, but by my father.

Just when Shi Shi wanted to ask if Li Yu was a little too arrogant, Li Yu received a call from Chen Hong.

Shi Shi asked worriedly.

On the other side, Li Yu and Shi Shi have returned to Hualiu Company.

Chen Hong also said on the phone that Chen Kaige sincerely invited Li Yu to attend the movie screening ceremony.

Chen Kaige used Chen Hong as a mouthpiece and did not tell Li Yu personally. He thought he had been criticized by Li Yu just now and was worried that talking to Li Yu would be awkward and awkward.

Chen Kaige listened to the advice. Li Yu was not a person without emotional intelligence. He was very generous and agreed to attend that day without even thinking about it.

"Shi Shi, I think you seemed to have something to say to me just now. What do you want to say to me?"

Li Yu put down his phone and looked at Shi Shi with a smile. Shi Shi was stunned. She thought that someone as big as Chen Kaige would become angry if Li Yu scolded him.

In the end, Chen Kaige actually accepted Li Yu's suggestion and asked Chen Hong to invite Li Yu to attend the screening ceremony. Chen Hong's tone of voice was also very polite.

"No...it's nothing. Director Chen's approach is a bit unexpected."

Shi Shi felt that those words were no longer necessary.

She only had one feeling now, and that was surprise.

"There is nothing unexpected. Didn't I tell you everything? I just told the truth at that time, and everything I said was the truth.

His rash idea of ​​reshooting is irrational. No matter how wealthy he is, he cannot do that. "

Li Yu was not surprised at all that Chen Kaige listened to his advice.

Who among the people who can reach that position would be a real fool? The advice given by Li Yu was originally the safest approach.

Chen Kaige's mobility is still very strong. In less than half a month, he had made arrangements for the screenings.

The movie "Gone Girl" will be screened on August 8 in some theaters in some developed cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, and Shenzhen.

The screening ceremony was held in Beijing, and on August 8, Li Yu came to the scene to cheer up Chen Kaige.

对了，8月6日这个日子不是瞎定的，8月6日是农历7月的七夕节。

Arranging a screening of "Gone Lover" during the Chinese Valentine's Day, Li Yu could only say that Chen Kaige knew how to play.

The couples who went into the cinema to watch "Gone Girl" today probably even wanted to kill Chen Kaige.

Chinese Valentine's Day is supposed to be a day of sweetness for you and me, but you show this to the audience? Is a movie that satirizes marriage really not afraid of couples getting into fights after watching the movie and turning it into a break-up party?
After the screening ceremony, Li Yu could see that Chen Kaige himself was quite nervous.

"Director Li, did you really not deliberately praise my movie that day? Are you serious when you say that this movie is already exciting enough?
After you left that day, I invited my friends in the circle to watch the movie again, and they all praised the movie very highly.

That's what's bad. They told me the same thing when my "The Promise" was released. "

Since being woken up by Li Yu's scolding that day, Chen Kaige no longer trusts the people around him that much.

He used to wish he could hear those people praise his movies.

It was different now. He felt that those people were praising him, so it would not be far before he would hit the street again.

"Director Chen, I can tell you responsibly that your friends are telling the truth this time."

Li Yu said seriously.

"this time……"

Chen Kaige was a bit dumbfounded.

Overall, Li Yu's words gave him a little more confidence.

However, since Chen Kaige has a serious lack of confidence in the movie itself, the little confidence Li Yu gave him can basically be ignored.

After the show, Chen Kaige did not ask his assistant to help him collect the real opinions of the audience on the Internet about the movie.

Because in the past, his assistant did not dare to show him the real comments from the audience, and I believe it will be the same this time.

This time, he wants to do it himself. He wants to go online to see what the audience's comments on his movie will be like.

In order to wait for the real comments from the first batch of viewers, Chen Kaige waited until late at night.

Finally, the first comments he had been waiting for arrived, and they were far beyond his expectations.
