Extracting skills from movies

After boarding the plane, Du Sheng was arranged to stay in the first class cabin.

On the left is Jia Jingwen, and on the other is Liu Yifei.

Obviously, in the eyes of many people in the crew, this arrangement was easy and ordinary.

Even Wu Jing and Lian Kai felt so.

When they were reading the script together before, they took the initiative to keep a distance from Liu Yifei, for fear of being involved in some unnecessary trouble.

Although Liu Yifei also noticed the subtle misunderstanding among everyone, this girl was not angry at all. Instead, she seemed to enjoy it.

Just like a little girl secretly enjoying secret candy, I think it's quite interesting.

However, Du Sheng was still busy on the plane and did not flirt too much with the two women.

Instead, he was concentrating on discussing the martial arts moves in the movie with Won Bin.

Du Sheng shared his thoughts:
"As for the fighting scenes in the movie, I think the moves are sharp and shocking.

The impact is enough to make people's blood boil and their hearts beat fast, as if they were on a high-speed car journey. "

Yuan Bin was stunned for a moment and said:

“Isn’t this a main theme blockbuster produced by the cooperation between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong? I originally thought it would adopt a more realistic style, authentically reproducing the social customs of the two places.

If the action scenes are too exaggerated, will the audience think it is not realistic enough..."

Won Bin's words were like a sharp scalpel, and they really hit the psychological core of some viewers.

When "Wolf Warrior 2" directed by Wu Jing in his previous life was released, it received a lot of criticism.

Those spectators accused the protagonist of having too much aura, like an indestructible cockroach, as if he had turned on invincible mode.

However, what is interesting is that these people were so excited when they watched the Hollywood blockbuster "First Blood".

I even feel that the plot in "The Expendables" where a few people can overthrow a country is reasonable.

This double standard is really played to perfection.

Du Sheng didn't care about the opinions of these critics and smiled slightly:
“Although it is a mainstream blockbuster, it is also commercial in nature.

The most important thing is that the movie must allow the audience to experience the ultimate entertainment pleasure, otherwise why would the audience spend their money?
As for the protagonist going deep into danger alone, killing people all the way, and finally defeating the gang of officials and selling hostages and successfully rescuing the hostages, these things are not uncommon in foreign countries.

Moreover, a well-choreographed action scene does not necessarily lack authenticity.

Bay City itself has similar gangs, and there are many shootings, drug trafficking, and selling of officials.

They do all kinds of evil things, and the protagonist kills them cleanly and decisively, which makes the audience feel more identified with the film.”

In Du Sheng's opinion, although "The Man from Nowhere" is a story about transnational trafficking, coupled with the shell of special forces,

But in fact, it is still the same as "Wolf Warrior" at its core.

The design of the action scenes can borrow some elements from "Wolf Warrior", after all, "Wolf Warrior" has not yet been released.

Of course, the movie must have its own highlights.

Especially Du Sheng’s own martial arts moves, it would be a pity if they were not shown.

In the movie, Du Sheng intends to appropriately present the positive image of the national army and tell the story of how the mainland pioneers turned the tide in Bay City.

However, the premise of all this is that the movie must be attractive enough.

Du Sheng knew very well what the core of the movie was.

Yuan Bin listened and nodded:

"I understand what you mean. No problem. Leave it to me."

This way, the film's uniqueness is maintained while ensuring the story is compelling enough.

He suddenly looked Wu Jing up and down:
"But my dear brother, you need to practice more, otherwise the fighting scenes will be like a chicken pecking at rice."

Wu Jing immediately straightened his back:
"Brother Sheng, don't listen to him! I'm called a lean killer. When I take off my clothes, you can see my six-pack abs!"

He suddenly moved closer to Du Sheng:
"But seriously, if you were to carry a bazooka shirtless in the movie, the international box office would at least increase by 20 million."

Lian Kai nodded his head rapidly:

"Yes, yes, yes! If we line up as a muscular square, it will definitely be more pleasing to the eye than Sylvester Stallone's The Expendables!"

He suddenly looked at Liu Yifei:

"What about Sissi? We can't let her wear a cheongsam to fight the Japanese, right?"

Liu Yifei was drinking milk tea and almost choked:
"Is it okay for me to wear sportswear? The kind that exposes my belly and has hot pants, with my abs vaguely visible."

Her face suddenly turned red like a ripe peach:
"But cousin, can you give me a pair of safety pants?"

Du Sheng smiled and handed over the tissue:

"Don't worry. The fighting scenes designed for you all involve triple axel rotations followed by backflips. Your skirt will definitely not be exposed."

He suddenly turned to Yuan Bin:
"But Brother Bin, Lian Kai's chest muscles really need to be strengthened, and Wu Jing also needs to gain some muscle, otherwise how can I set off this 'Eastern Schwarzenegger'?"

Seeing Wu Jing and Lian Kai looking miserable, Jia Jingwen snickered beside them:
"You men are more exaggerated than a peacock spreading its feathers."

She shook the script in her hand:
"I am a villain, but in the end I will be defeated by two muscular men working together. It's exciting just to think about it."

Wu Jing immediately responded:
"Don't worry, I will get you killed in the most handsome way possible."

He suddenly patted his chest and promised:

"Starting tomorrow, I will lead everyone to run 10 kilometers in the morning, and practice combat exercises in the evening."

When entering the set, in order to familiarize ourselves with the location and environment, we usually don’t shoot from morning to night in the first two days.

Lian Kai wailed:
"Old Wu, just lift weights by yourself every day, don't drag us down!"

His eyes suddenly lit up:
"How about we find a fitness trainer? The kind that speaks in Hong Kong dialect, 'You need to eat more protein'!"

Du Sheng smiled and stood up, his muscles undulating like waves as he moved his wrists:

"The fitness plan is set. Remember, we are not selling meat, we are exporting culture.

We need to let the world see that Eastern men can be both good at writing and good at fighting."

He suddenly looked out the window:
"Just like Bruce Lee kicked away the 'Sick Man of East Asia' sign, we want to put the new label of 'Oriental Muscular Man' all over the Hollywood Walk of Fame."

Liu Yifei looked at Du Sheng's back, then suddenly lowered her head and wrote on the blank space in the script:

"It turns out that muscle lines can also become a cultural symbol."

She touched her waist and abdomen and secretly decided to start sit-up training tonight.

Pick up the Crane Fist as well.

After all, the vest line is the cultural medal of the new era!

While Du Sheng and his companions were enthusiastically discussing movie-related topics in the cabin, various reports on the press conference of "The Man from Nowhere" had already flooded into well-known websites such as Beijing Express and Xinchu.

"Great news! Girls' Generation's new album is expected to be released in October."

"Star Media is caught up in the casting scandal again: the inside story of Zhao Qi's replacement is exposed"

"The 600 million animated film sparked controversy: Is Du Sheng taking a risk or being willful?"

"Liu Yifei revealed: I was able to play the leading role in "The Man from Nowhere" thanks to Du Sheng's help."

"When everyone was not optimistic, Du Sheng went against all odds and chose Jia Jingwen as the artist in the city of Wancheng."

"The Man from Nowhere" has increased its investment again, and the additional amount will exceed 1 million yuan! Just to create top special effects. "

Once these news reports were released, they instantly caused an uproar on the Internet and attracted the attention of countless people.

Du Sheng has just set a record for Chinese-language films with his amazing box office performance, winning honor for the country on many levels.
At this moment, the amount of traffic he carries is enormous, and his every move can become the focus of media and public attention.

The most ecstatic people to see these news reports were undoubtedly the fans of Girls' Generation. There was confirmed news about the new album, and it was confirmed by Du Sheng himself, which made everyone very happy.

Fans from various clubs worked on the photos overnight, and edited the trailer into eighteen different versions with different lighting effects.

In addition, the most discussed topic among netizens is the phenomenon of Star Media "eating alone".

For example, it was rumored online that the original female lead was Zhao Qi, but at the critical moment, the decision suddenly changed.

Moreover, many reporters are good at stirring up trouble. They deliberately released some news about the ambiguous relationship between Du Sheng and members of Girls' Generation, or posted photos of Liu Yifei and Jia Jingwen that showed their poor image on the Internet.

This caused even greater controversy and successfully attracted the attention and traffic of many netizens.

Their approach certainly achieved its purpose.

The doubts about Liu Yifei and Jia Jingwen playing the leading female roles on the Internet grew louder and louder, inevitably affecting Du Sheng.

Marketing accounts collective climax:
"A detailed account of the rise of Du Sheng-affiliated artists, 'From Zhao Qi to Liu Yifei: the thousand-layer routine of resourceful people'"

"5 million spent on special effects? Are the audience all Sharingan?"

"A hodgepodge company makes anime? This crossover is even more magical than One Piece's presidential campaign!"

"6 million bet on animation? The Eastern version of "Final Fantasy" may turn into "Final Loss"! "

A gossip blogger posted a video of Liu Yifei's early audition, with the caption "Three years of head-changing history, Du Sheng has made an indispensable contribution", and it was retweeted over 100,000 times in an instant.

The most intriguing is the popular post on Tianya Forum, "From the Clouds to the Quagmire: Du Sheng's Warning of Expansion", in which the author uses historical allusions to portray Du Sheng:
“When Napoleon abandoned his flag in the rain at Waterloo, his ego had become an epitaph;
When Xiang Yu cut his own throat at the bank of the Wujiang River to express his gratitude to the Jiangdong people, his pride had solidified into blood-red amber.

Today, Du Sheng is walking on a similar tightrope—"

The post also listed three major "crimes":
The special effects carnival of "The Man from Nowhere" with a 1 million investment, the gamble of the 6 million animation "How to Train Your Dragon", and the "arbitrary" casting.

In the accompanying picture, the deliberately blurred photo of Liu Yifei formed a stark contrast with Zhao Qi's retouched photo, and the caption "The casting metaphysics of the ugly duckling and the white swan" triggered millions of reposts.

The most piercing voice in the public opinion field is the accusation of "capital manipulation" against Star Media.

These carefully prepared public opinion packages provide viewers who are unaware of the truth with more topics to talk about after dinner.

Just two days ago, Ye Jingzhi held a press conference to announce that the "How to Train Your Dragon" project has been launched. She claimed that the investment is as high as 6 million yuan and is determined to produce a wonderful animated film for Oriental people.

Once this news came out, it shocked everyone.

It not only caused a stir in the entertainment industry, but also triggered widespread discussion in all sectors of society.

It should be noted that the actual production budget of How to Train Your Dragon is more than 5 million yuan, and the publicity and promotion costs are tentatively set at million yuan. It is common practice to exaggerate appropriately when promoting to the outside world.

At the press conference, Ye Jingzhi announced a piece of important news:
Du Sheng was involved in the production, screenwriting and character special effects of "How to Train Your Dragon".

He also made the final decision on the entire project.

There has been endless praise for Du Sheng from the outside world, calling him a representative figure with passion and ideals, who is willing to support the Oriental animation industry with real money.

Some people think that he was just being impulsive this time.

Investing a large amount of money in a project that is doomed to lose money is simply overconfidence to the extreme.

However, some people speculated that Du Sheng had other purposes in investing in animated films, such as taking the opportunity to acquire land.

They even found relevant approval documents from Hangzhou City, pointing out that the animation industry base covers an area of ​​100 acres.

He also joked that the Ye family's "real estate empire" and Country Garden behind Du Sheng are about to usher in a new chapter.

The post also mentioned that Du Sheng was actually dismissive of Hollywood celebrities and completely ignored other people's advances.

You know, Nicole is a global idol with fans all over the world.

Even if you don't respond, at least you should show basic respect, right?

However, Du Sheng behaved so "unhumble" in front of the media.

Furthermore, Du Sheng’s attitude at the Bay City Golden Melody Awards was also laughable.

He won the Best Singer award last year, but no one is paying attention to him anymore because he didn’t win any awards this year. This attitude is really speechless.

What is even more shocking is that Du Sheng actually encouraged everyone to buy commercial housing, both openly and secretly.

Now everyone knows that he has a part in Agile.

This action undoubtedly exposed his vampire nature.

Since three years ago, housing prices have risen by 50% consecutively. The risks can be imagined.

Buying a house at this time is simply a no-brainer.

Du Sheng is either too confident or has ulterior motives and wants to get his fans to fill the hole together?
Last but not least, Du Sheng was arbitrary in the crew and insisted on choosing Liu Yifei and Jia Jingwen as the heroines.

I am not questioning their acting skills and appearance, after all, aesthetic tastes vary from person to person.

But to be honest, no matter how I look at it, I feel that Liu Yifei is only suitable for the small screen because her face is too young.

And because of her existence, everyone ignored the other protagonists in "The Man from Nowhere".

There are also Wu Jing, Zhang Jin, Chen Chusheng, etc., all of whom are artists from Star Media selected by Du Sheng.

It’s right to give priority to one’s own artists, but whether they are suitable for the role is another matter.

Based on this, I boldly predict that The Man from Nowhere will probably be a bad movie..."

This post was published by the well-known columnist and commentator "Professional Anti-Counterfeiting".

It became an instant hit once it was released.

Those who support Du Sheng and those who criticize him engaged in a heated debate in the comment section.

Soon, this topic went viral.

Both online and offline media reported on the event and invited experts to comment.

There was even a program that specifically made fun of this matter and discussed whether Du Sheng was really arrogant and complacent.

Before long, the phrase "when successful, one becomes arrogant" actually became one of the hottest topics in the country.

Some people agreed with the post's point of view and believed that Du Sheng was indeed too proud.

Some people also refuted that Du Sheng was actually a visionary.

At the junction of the keyboard and the screen, a netizen named Ma Yaolong is tapping his hot ideals with his fingertips.

The article he published on Renren.com titled "Six Hundred Million Dollar Gold Scales Should Not Stay in a Pond - The Warmth Behind the Investment in How to Train Your Dragon".

This voice is like the first highlight drawn by the original artist, instantly lighting up the haze of the entire industry.

"I was originally a weed in the wilds of Oriental animation, with my roots planted in the hardened soil."

Ma Yaolong opens with this metaphor, and the author's unique poetic sentiment is steaming between the lines:

“I entered this industry with great enthusiasm, but found that even my breath smelled of rust.

The numbers on the monthly pay slip jumped more sporadically than the frames of an animation. The longest time was a full six months, and I lived by counting the pores on the white flour buns. "

He described the past when he curled up in a six-square-meter rental house in the cold winter, wrapped in a faded old cotton-padded jacket, and drew storyboards on the glass window with his breath. It seemed as if he could hear the north wind penetrating the cracks in the words.

While his peers were migrating to game studios and companies in groups like migratory birds, this stubborn young man was sweating for his ideals.

“They say I watch over animation like a spring that’s about to dry up, but I know there’s lava flowing underground.

Until the name Du Sheng turned into spring thunder and the 600 million investment was like timely rain pouring on the cracked land.

Do you know that the salary that pops up on your card on time every month is not a number, but a spiritual armor!

The far-reaching influence he brought to the domestic animation industry is like spring rain!"
