Huayu: As a child star, I just want to be famous

Chapter 284 I + Four Great Classics = Beat Xiao Chen
At the press conference, looking down, there were almost a hundred people, including fifty or sixty media outlets of all sizes.

Just in time for the press conference of a major event.

However, this is just a launch conference.

Many media outlets did not receive any travel expenses and came here voluntarily, which is almost unimaginable in other crews.

Chen Linfeng led the entire crew to answer reporters' questions.

Because there are so many well-known stars, it greatly relieves his pressure.

Reporters were excited about the appearance of so many stars. The last time they felt this way was when they were filming "The Great Tang Empire".

A reporter from Xinhuanet's entertainment section asked, "Is this drama a big production like The Great Tang Empire and My Love from the Star? I think everyone is looking forward to seeing you again, Chen."

"It can't be considered a big production, at least there aren't any big scenes. This drama is all about the plot, so the script should be more solid."

The reporter was surprised and asked, "Don't the two dramas mentioned above win for their plots? The Great Tang Empire won the Best Screenplay Award."

Chen Linfeng was speechless. He thought for a while and said, "There are war scenes in The Great Tang Empire, which are large-scale in themselves, and people pay more attention to the degree of restoration of ancient historical dramas.

In addition, Li Shimin's experience is legendary enough, so everyone naturally enjoys watching it. This is related to the level of the screenwriter himself, but not that much. "

"So, writer Chen, you are particularly satisfied with this script, right?"

The reporter did not wait for the other party to answer and directly asked Zhang Guoli,
"Teacher Zhang Guoli, what do you think of what Xiao Chen just said?"

Zhang Guoli supported the role, saying, "As soon as I saw the script, I accepted the role without hesitation. If you ask other actors, they will definitely do the same."

Everyone present nodded.

The script is solid and the story is exciting.

The reporters below all took note of this.

Then a reporter from the entertainment section of China Youth Network asked questions.

"I heard that Shi Xiaolong and Shu Chang are the leading actors this time, and you guys are supporting actors. Can you tell me why you and Liu Qianqian are not the leading actors?"

Shi Xiaolong sat there and immediately felt very uncomfortable. This question was a bit heartbreaking.

Chen Linfeng was well prepared. In fact, as early as when the news that the protagonist was Shi Xiaolong was released, there were voices on the Internet saying that he was pushing his own brother.

Although this is not completely wrong, he does have his own considerations.

“First of all, we have to make it clear that our drama is an ensemble drama. Although Xiaolong is the protagonist, the amount of the plot is not obviously much more than that of the other few of us. It’s just that the perspective is more developed from his side.

Secondly, considering the performance effect, Shu Chang is the most suitable for the heroine in the play in terms of both character and personal experience.

My brother and she are quite familiar with each other, and the two of them easily have a chemical reaction, which can be seen from their previous film "Jingwei Filling the Sea".

In general, this casting must have been carefully considered, and it is not to promote anyone, please rest assured."

Since they say so, let's just believe it. After all, this is their territory.

Following this topic, Chen Linfeng introduced the characters of the actors present and their personalities in the play.

In a spoiler-free format, of course.

Everything else is fine, but Liu Qianqian plays an elder sister with a bad temper who is prone to losing her temper and often quarrels with her younger sister, which is something no one expected.

The Dazhong.com reporter asked directly, "Why did Liu Qianqian play such a role? What were her considerations? Even if she wanted to transform, would it be too abrupt?"

Liu Qianqian answered this question herself.

“In fact, Anxi in “My Love from the Star” has a bit of a bad temper.

The character played as Li Wenzhu this time is not as irritable as Xiaofeng said. She is just an older sister quarreling with her younger sister in a normal family. This is a consideration that is more realistic.

As for the transformation..."

At this point, Liu Qianqian smiled and said, "Hasn't my previous An Qian completely turned into a funny person?

There are still a group of people online who think I have no culture at all and that my quiet and gentle demeanor is just an act.”

This is true. An Qian from “My Love from the Star” had an unexpectedly good effect on Liu Qianqian’s transformation.

It can be said to be too good.

An Xi's Twenty-Four Histories has become a meme on the Internet.

It is almost comparable to the "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick" of later generations.

Because of interviews, reporters have had more contact with Liu Qianqian in real life and know what kind of person she is, so they don't think so.

Just looking at this well-organized answer, you wouldn't think she is stupid.

Overall, the press conference went smoothly.

The press conference is not only a means for journalists to obtain information, but also a means of reporting.

The crew also wants to reveal some content through media reporters to help with early publicity.

The two sides complement each other.

After the press conference, Chen Linfeng organized everyone to take photos together while everyone was gathered.

In the alley of the family compound where the filming was taking place, the slanting sunlight from behind shone down, covering everyone with a layer of golden color.

Cao Yu, one of the best photographers in Venice, took photos for everyone.

"Xiaolong, don't laugh. Your character setting is to have a sour face every day."

He set up the camera and looked at the crowd.

“Other people smiled brighter, I took the picture.

Eggplant! "

Chen Linfeng looked at the effect and felt it was good.

We’ll take another one when we wrap up, and then we’ll decide which one to use as the final promotional picture.

Everyone dispersed.

Seeing Liu Qianqian and Shu Chang holding hands intimately, Chen Linfeng couldn't help but remind them, "You two are typical sisters in the play, and you don't accept each other. Don't act like this when the time comes."

Liu Qianqian rolled her eyes at him and said, "I know. You don't need to remind me. It's just a little strict."

She pretended to pinch Shu Chang's neck, and Shu Chang understood and pretended to fight with her.

"Is it like this?" Liu Qianqian asked with a raised eyebrow.

"To be honest, it's not very natural." Chen Linfeng shook his head.

"Forget it, let's talk about this after we start shooting tomorrow."

Now is not the time to talk about this, so Chen Linfeng took a few familiar people from the crew to have dinner together.

In this drama, everyone has a very good relationship with each other, and they must show that familiarity and intimacy.

He has been using various methods to strengthen this feeling.

This includes but is not limited to eating together, calling each other's names in the play, and acting out the characters in the play as much as possible.

……

Now it is 2008, and even most official media have opened online channels to release information faster.

After the press conference, media reported it that evening.

"Xiao Chen's new drama starts filming, with many big stars"

"Xiao Chen said the new play script was the one he was most satisfied with"

"A new drama that surpasses "Tang Dynasty" and "You Who Came From the Stars"

"Group portrait drama, can Xiao Chen control the rhythm well?"

"Xiao Chen and Liu Qianqian are a pair. What are the special qualities of these two people?"

"..."

Netizens have been looking forward to Chen Linfeng's new drama for a long time. After seeing the report of the launch conference, the first reaction of most people was.

excited!

Expectation!

And tout.

"Almost all of them are acquaintances. It feels like Xiao Chen is about to make another big move."

"It's such a blessing to watch a TV series starring Xiao Chen every year."

"It is highly unlikely that he will be able to air it this year. He only made a movie last year, which has already been released. He was writing a novel in the second half of the year, so it is unlikely that it will be aired this year."

"Ah, why is this happening? I'm going to die without Xiao Chen in the show."

"..."

Colleagues in the industry also feel like a big rock has finally fallen.

Chen Linfeng filed for a new drama in the middle of last year, and everyone has been thinking about how to avoid him.

In reality, generally speaking, about a quarter after his new drama is aired, the ratings will be affected if it is not a big-budget hit drama.

"My Love from the Star" still has good ratings even now, and some not-so-strong new dramas often can't compare to it.

"The Great Tang Empire" is also a quirk. Until this year, its ratings were still ranked in the top 10 among costume dramas.

In fact, Long Lin’s other dramas are similar. They are the ones that TV stations like to rebroadcast the most, and the ratings are just slightly lower at most.

But this has invisibly reduced the TV stations' desire to buy dramas, which is simply leaving no room for others to survive.

On the contrary, Long Lin made a lot of money. He could earn long-term profits from any TV series.

In the past, this was often a rare phenomenon that only occurred in some popular classics.

However, in Longlin Company, it is like commonplace.

To be honest, this kind of thing happens so often that it makes people jealous.

But he relies on his own abilities and no one can say anything about it.

In addition, Long Lin knows how to behave, and he basically brings a group of collaborators together for each drama. Who wouldn’t want to get on board now?

In just a few years, a fierce tiger has emerged in the field of film and television.

Other film and television companies are not without ideas. They are also already working on high-quality large-scale productions.

We can't delay any longer. We can't just watch others eat meat.

In fact, there will be a series of big-budget TV series launching later this year.

"The New Three Kingdoms", "The New Water Margin" and "The New Dream of the Red Chamber" are all scheduled to start filming this year, and there is even news that a new version of "Journey to the West" has been approved.

Everyone seemed to have their Ren and Du meridians opened up at once.

Yes, I can’t beat you by myself. But if I add the four great classics, how can I not beat you, Xiao Chen?

In Chen Linfeng's view, the establishment of these dramas is a good thing for him.

Especially because of the disruption he caused to the entire industry, everyone's standards for big productions have changed.

At least the emphasis on screenwriters has been greatly increased.

The style of costumes and makeup was also almost changed by him alone.

In the costume dramas of the past two years, the previous Hong Kong and Taiwan studio style has weakened a lot.

Instead, it is replaced by the type of clothing like that in "The Great Tang Empire", which pursues authenticity and simplicity while also having some modern aesthetics.

The few people in the crew who were in charge of art and costumes and props have been dragged to various crews in the past two years.

Chen Linfeng was quite proud of this. As a time traveler, if he didn't bring any good influence, it would be a wasted trip.
