Entertainment: From the Octagon to the big screen

Chapter 402 - Goodbye Police
"Young people should be more restrained and avoid squandering energy, so as not to be short-lived in the future." Wu Gang asked the waiter to add a skewer of leeks and a piece of kidney.

Chen Yu, who was rubbing his cheeks, was startled. He turned back to look at Director Li Li. He remembered that there were no words like this and leeks and crude kidneys on the fly page. It was too outrageous!

Chen Yu admitted that after returning to the set from Hengdian, he showed a certain degree of sluggishness. After all, he and Dilraba were a little crazy some time ago.

During those days in Hengdian, Chen Yu played role-playing games every night, teasing, harassing, or forcibly possessing small animals that were either sexy, weak, or cute.

Playing and singing every night and staying up all night, even Dilraba felt sore in her back and legs. She even took a day off after Chen Yu left to catch up on her sleep.

"The dark circles under your eyes are also very obvious. It seems that you have overindulged. How about adding a dozen oysters to make up for it?" Wu Gang poured a cup of warm water for Chen Yu and mixed it with the yuba segments.

This scene can be regarded as an Easter egg at the end. Chen Yu, who returns to the police force, invites Wu Gang, who has been promoted and made a fortune, to eat noodles. The restaurant the two choose is the one Chen Yu often visited when he was an undercover agent.

Because Chen Yu once said that he wanted to spend money openly and honestly, but at this time, the small restaurant was very dark and cramped, but outside the door of the store, the sun was shining brightly.

Director Li Li used the environment and lens language to tell the audience that "Operation Ice Breaking" is not really over, it is even just the opening ceremony of a wonderful drama.

At the same time, it is also hinting to the audience that the characters of Chen Yu and Wu Gang are likely to encounter more difficult, dangerous situations and challenges in the future.

After several discussions and revisions, the ending of "Operation Ice Breaking" changed to Wang Jinsong, who failed to commit suicide, committing suicide, and Simon Yam, who had a near-miss with meritorious service and then retired.

Wu Gang received awards and was promoted in rank and real power. Chen Yu was shot and wounded in the final action. He put on the police uniform again but was transferred to a civilian position.

This ending is the final draft that was brainstormed by the three directors, the screenwriting team and the protagonists, leaving multi-dimensional and multi-angle entry points for the sequel.

By the way, it is also guaranteed that whether Chen Yu is invited to play the male lead for the second time in the sequel or not, there will be reasonable excuses to keep or replace him that the audience will accept.

"Master, please help me warm up the skewers and then stretch out two bowls of medium skewers. Discard the cold ones." Director Li Li pointed to the table and asked Wu Gang and Chen Yu to quickly compare new words.

Ten minutes later, the noodles were served. Wu Gang handed the three cloves of garlic to Chen Yu, and then asked him if he had any difficulties in adapting to the new job.

Chen Yu touched the tip of his nose and stirred the noodles with chopsticks, grinning his thin lips. He used to work hard on the front line, but now it would be nice to get a free job.

Moreover, everyone in the family is opposed to Chen Yu living a life where there is no tomorrow today. Chen Yu wants to get a marriage license with his girlfriend after he has stabilized completely after a period of time.

After saying that, he lowered his head to take a meat skewer and picked up a chopstick of noodles. Then Director Li Li shouted with great satisfaction, and then changed his body to help Chen Yu eat the noodles.

As for why a substitute was needed, there was actually no special reason. It was just that Chen Yu didn't want to eat noodles at the moment. Director Li Li expressed his understanding and support.

Anyway, it’s just a set of over-the-shoulder shots shot from behind the character. If Chen Yu is willing to let a stand-in take the role, then let him do it. There is no need to go overboard with this little thing.

Director Li Li, who returned from studying in the United States, has seen many big names in Hollywood who have excellent relationships with their stuntmen.

This group of people will find opportunities to help the stand-in get more exposure to the camera, so that the stand-in can accumulate some performance experience.

In addition, Teacher Wu Gang also felt that it didn't matter that he could just eat noodles and chat with anyone, and he would be more eager to perform if he had a good appetite.

To be honest, this sequence of shots lasted only about twenty seconds, which was not enough time for him to drink water.

Chen Yu applauded the stand-in who took two sips of noodles and wiped out a bunch of kidneys, then sat back down in front of Wu Gang with bulging cheeks and picked out noodles with chopsticks.

"Have you missed the thrilling life recently?" Wu Gang put a spoonful of chili oil into the bowl, and Chen Yu glanced at the red noodle soup and fell silent.

To be honest, after getting used to days that come and go in the wind and rain, it is quite boring to have free time, especially since he is not good at handling paperwork.

Director Li Li stood up and shouted stop. He felt that Chen Yu's eyes were too depressed just now.

Although he is not yet adapted to his new position, Chen Yu, who is concerned, can no longer take risks as he did before. He yearns for a mechanical but stable life.

Director Li Li carefully dissected Chen Yu's character's psychology, then analyzed the character's current situation, and then reminded Chen Yu to be more positive.

This is also paving the way for the sequel. If Chen Yu is willing to take the role, let him come out again. If he rejects the role, he can go into seclusion without affecting the crew's search for a new leading actor.

After Chen Yu and Wu Gang calmed down their emotions, they sat back at the table and continued shooting this group of shots.

Wu Gang put the sign on the table and waved his hand. When Chen Yu was undercover, he didn't show much bravery and fearlessness, and he even disobeyed the orders of his superiors. Just because Chen Yu was more familiar with undercover life, Wu just asked him about his current thoughts in a subtle way.

It would be best if the old fish could be caught back. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if things don't work out.

After Wu Gang took a sip of noodles, he looked at each other and Chen Yu, who was holding a kidney, smiled and swallowed his words. At this moment, both of them had very complicated expressions.

This is what Director Li Li believes is the most metaphorical picture in the overall situation.

Chen Yu doesn't have to take the initiative to become an undercover agent, but as long as he wears a police uniform, he must obey the orders of his superiors.

This is the same in any country, unless Chen Yu directly takes off this layer of protective color.

But once it loses its protection, Chen Yu's forced and expedient actions during his undercover period will instantly turn into "illegal and criminal" behavior.

Therefore, from the beginning to the end, Chen Yu could only refuse based on his attitude, but he had no right to refuse at all.

Therefore, Wu just laughed at Chen Yu, pretending to be confused and still struggling when he knew he couldn't resist.

As for Chen Yupi's smiling face, director Li Li left it to the audience to guess and understand.

Director Li Li, who returned from the United States, always wants to quietly discuss boring topics between bureaucracy and human nature with the audience, highlighting the depth of the series.

In fact, Chen Yu is very disgusted with Li Li's point of view. This is not some stupid extravagance from the United States or Europe! Don’t let one or two shots ruin everyone’s hard work.

Once the broadcaster believes that this series has some kind of dangerous sexual tendencies or signs, it is not a matter of editing or deletion, and it can easily be buried directly.

But as the chief director, Fu Dongyu did not stand up to criticize this matter.

Strong veterans Wu Gang and Wang Jinsong did not correct this matter, so Chen Yu must remain silent. Anyway, even though the series was buried, he still received his salary according to the contract.

When this scene is finished, it means that Chen Yu will be free to go to the United States to join the crew of "Deadpool II".

The sequel to "Operation Icebreaker" is still in the planning stage, and even if the project is approved, it will have to wait until "Venom Hunter" is broadcast.

What is certain is that Chen Yu will never work with this series again, and Emanuel has officially informed iQiyi.

Wu Gang nodded. He felt that it was a pity. Although Chen Yu has not been in good condition since returning to China this time, his acting skills have improved a little bit.

Wu Gang felt that the Chen Yongren imitated by Chen Yu had more thickness and texture, and it also contained a bit of hesitation and helplessness that was particularly surprising.

There is quite a bit of Al Pacino's style when he first entered the industry, although Wu Gang insists that actors cannot rely solely on imitation.

But using Chen Yu's current acting skills to imitate or simply copy the work of a famous actor is indeed a shortcut to improving himself.

"When are you going to the United States?" Wu Gang looked at Chen Yu who was stretching.

"Leave tomorrow morning." Chen Yu sat on the chair and asked the makeup artist to help wash his face. Originally, Chen Yu planned to go to Hengdian.

Dilraba told Chen Yu yesterday that teacher Xie Yuan and director Lin Yufen had criticized her for the huge gap in performance before and after the family visit.

Because she had too much fun playing it some time ago, Dilraba has been unable to get into the role carefully recently.

Moreover, the bright and radiant Dilraba, who is nourished by her husband, does not fit the appearance and state of the character who has suffered so much in these scenes.

The two directors were forced to make many adjustments to the announcement because even makeup could not hide Dilraba's look.

"You and that old boy Xie Yuan are really inseparable." Wu Gang glanced at Chen Yu, who was wiping his face.

"That one is too stubborn." Chen Yu handed the towel to the makeup artist.
