I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 149: Guo Daji is on fire! [ subscriptions plus additional update, the seventh update]

Drop drop!
Buzz!
Since Chen Jin came out of the Movie Palace, her phone has never stopped ringing, with either QQ messages or text messages.

Don’t these people sleep?
It’s almost 5 a.m. in China!
Are all of them night owls who stay up all night?
Chen Jin had no idea that many acting students had to watch the award ceremonies of the three major film festivals. Some who couldn't find the resources would watch the live broadcasts on several major portals.

You need to understand industry trends, watch award-winning movies as soon as possible, and learn from the strengths of those who won the awards.

The acting department watches the performances of the best actors and actresses, the directing department watches the structure and shooting techniques of the award-winning films... the photography department... the screenwriting department... In short, the award-winning films of the three major film festivals are worthy of repeated speculation and research by students from each department.

Pulling the film dozens of times is the minimum. Some people need to learn skills and pull it at least hundreds of times.

Ning Hao watched Guy Ritchie's "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels" hundreds of times before he learned his multi-line narrative editing and coincidental collision of black humor, which led to the instant success of "Crazy Stone".

Yang Zi: "Brother Jin, you are so awesome!"

Zhang Yishan: "Best newcomer in Venice, awesome!"

Hong Yang: "This group can no longer accommodate someone as awesome as you!"

Qin Junjie: "Level 10 gap superstar!"

"I thought the strongest art exam candidate in history was the pinnacle you would never surpass, but I didn't expect that this was just the beginning, don't you think? Chen Mou Nanlang, Chen Art Exam, Chen Zhuangyuan, oh, not Chen Manfen, nor, Chen Movie King!"

The last message was sent by Dilraba Dilmurat.

You are so exotic, but you have such a funny attribute?

Why didn’t I notice it before?
"You can call me by my English name - Chan King!"

Chen Jin sent a message casually.

Dilireba replied quickly: "King Chen?"

"King Chen, you're a fool, King Chen!"

"So unsophisticated, not even as good as Chen Yikao!"

"Then what should I call you, Di Daba?"

Dilreba: “…”

"Bus of buses!"

"Goodbye, friendship is over!"

You are good at giving nicknames, Dilraba discovered.

"I don't mind you calling me so many nicknames, but you can't stand me calling you Di Daba?"

"How can that be the same? I'm talking about your glorious resume and achievements. What the hell are you, Di Daba? How am I older than you?"

"Then... Di Xiaoba?"

"Little Diba?"

Not even as good as Di Daba.

Dilraba Dilmurat had completely fainted. Even at 5 a.m. in the capital city, the night was colder than these two QQ messages from Chen Jin.

Di Xiaoba?
You are small, how are you small?

What about Xiao Diba?

Why do I feel like I’m watching Balala the Fairies transforming?

It just so happens that this children's fantasy drama is currently on the air.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. Please treat me when we get back to the capital. I won't be polite!"

Dilraba Dilmurat has been confirmed to attend the Central Academy of Drama, and as expected, she is in the same class as Zhu Yanmanzi. The two are chatting enthusiastically now, because both of their names consist of four characters, and the three of them formed a deep friendship during the art exam.

But Zhu Yanmanzi didn't tell her that he was in a relationship with Chen Jin.

Now Dilraba only envies Chen Jin for being able to film with Zhu Yanmanzi, and they are the male and female leading roles in Zhang Yimou's films.

Of course, she is not the only one who is envious. Who wouldn’t be envious of this group of future movie stars?!

"Okay, let's talk again!"

After sending messages to several other classmates, Chen Jin put his phone in his trouser pocket.

Zhu Yanmanzi was also sending messages there, I don’t know if it was Dilraba Dilmurat or someone else.

On the contrary, Zhang Yimou was actually running fast and exercising in the early morning. He was even more stubborn than Chen Jin.

"Director Zhang, wait for me!"

Chen Jin shouted and immediately pulled Zhu Yanmanzi over. Zhu Yanmanzi was startled as the message was only half sent.

Impressed!

She felt ashamed of these two people who were so self-disciplined!

No more sending!
Zhu Yanmanzi also accompanied the two of them as they ran towards the hotel.

Apparently, many people were too excited to sleep that night.

Chen Jin, on the other hand, returned to the hotel, placed the rookie trophy on the bed, took a shower, and lay down directly there, falling asleep holding the trophy.

All night long.

***
Imperial capital, 12 noon.

Guo Xun stayed up late to edit the film and just woke up now.

Yawns followed one another.

But there is no other way, he has to rush the work. He has to finish the post-production of "Love Is Not Blind" as soon as possible, and it has to pass the review by National Day at the latest, so that he can arrange the schedule for Double Eleven.

It wasn't that Chen Jin had to force him to do this, it was he who forced himself to do this.

If "The Adventures of Li Xianji" is not filmed, the copyright will expire at the end of next year.

Shooting a science fiction film is no different from other films. It is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive task. In the opinion of his partner Yin Le, it may not be completed in a year, so the time is very tight.

He had urged Guo Xun several times to quickly prepare the corresponding shooting schedule for "Li Xianji" so as to determine the start time, etc. He would be responsible for arranging the male lead.

But Guo Xun really doesn't have the time.

Fortunately, "Love Is Not Blind" is an urban drama, and there are scripts and novels for reference, so editing is very easy. However, the editor is not available to you 33 hours a day, so Guo Xun has to help with the editing.

"It's so fast..."

Guo Xun looked at the many unread text messages popping up on his phone, which was not turned off, and thought they were from his partners.

He checked subconsciously, it was no big deal.

Wan Qian!
Wan Qian sent a message this morning, saying that Chen Jin won a prize in Venice.

"Good guy, the best actor?"

Guo Xun quickly sent a message to Wan Qian. He had been so busy these days that he had even forgotten about Venice.

When "Under the Hawthorn Tree" was shortlisted for the main competition in Venice, he saw the news and sent a message to Chen Jin, thinking that it might win a prize, but he didn't think much about it.

Because the probability of winning the award by being nominated is not that high, even for Zhang Yimou.

I never expected that Chen Jin would win the award?!

Wan Qian didn't reply for a long time, but Guo Xun was already checking the news.

Looking at the words that popped up above, Guo Xun let out a long sigh: "Fortunately, fortunately, it's not the Venice Film Festival Best Actor!" "I was scared to death!"

"If this guy wins the Best Actor award like Xia Yu, wouldn't he soar to the sky?"

Guo Xun was secretly rejoicing, but was stunned the next second.

Depend on!
He’s awesome even if he’s not an award-winning actor!
She won the Best Newcomer Award at Venice Film Festival and was the first domestic winner of this honor. She was only one vote away from winning the Best Actor Award. With all the coverage, Chen Jin is going to be a big star!
“If nothing unexpected happens, The Hawthorn Tree will set a new box office record!”

Guo Xun had this premonition.

Today's news has not yet started to explode. It will not start to ferment until the afternoon and tomorrow. Guo Xun dare not estimate how much the box office will be by then.

And with Chen Jin’s return, there will be another wave of super popularity.

Beijing Film Academy is definitely going to create momentum!
This person is not a graduate, nor is he not enrolled. Xia Yu had not yet been admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.

What is Chen Jin now?
Current students!
He is a student who is about to enter the school and is also the top scorer in the college entrance examination. If this is publicized, will it be extremely popular?
Beijing Film Academy will definitely support it to the utmost!

There aren't many opportunities to slap a Chinese opera star in the face on the spot.

The Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy was already in decline, and this one finally produced a new student. There is no reason not to promote it well. It has to be accepted for the purpose of recruiting students for the Performance Department next year or the year after!
Guo Xun, a student of Beijing Film Academy, understands very well the school's determination to develop its acting department.

In the entire Beijing Film Academy, this department is probably the worst.

Moreover, the negative feedback flying everywhere is the biggest headache for school leaders; even with all the fancy things in the directing department, there aren't so many troubles.

When he thought of this, Guo Xun couldn't sit still anymore.

We agreed to be brothers, but you took off?!
"Brother, please hug me!"

Guo Xun immediately sent a message to Chen Jin. Considering the time difference and yesterday's award ceremony, Chen Jin should still be sleeping soundly.

"Love Is Not Blind, this should be a sure thing!"

"Brother Jin's current popularity will definitely last until November, and with Director Zhang listed as the producer..."

There is no need to think about Guo Xun anymore.

"Hey, what should we do if it's Old Yin?"

Guo Xun must definitely repay Yin Le for this favor.

Three years ago, he and another person started a company with only one purpose: to make movies.

He was studying in the Management Department of Beijing Film Academy, while Yin Le was responsible for copyright and company affairs. The two of them invested half of the money, 50 yuan each, and established Guo Xun's current company - Gonghe Culture Media.

Finally, last year, Yin Le discovered a good project.

That is Li Yang's "The Adventures of Li Xianji".

He used the company's money and bought the copyright as soon as possible.

In fact, many people asked him whether he would sell it or not, including Huayi, which wanted to spend a huge amount of money to acquire it, and the director had already been decided, Feng Xiaogang.

But Yin Le did not agree. He had only one hard requirement for the investors: the director must use his brother Guo Xun. This was the only requirement that had to be written into the contract.

Even, you have to listen to him during filming.

Guo Xun must have the director's power to decide everything about the crew, otherwise there is no point in talking about it.

Only Yin Le knew how awesome and talented this kid Guo Xun was, and he always believed that this guy could definitely make a good movie.

Moreover, at the beginning, the two of them decided to take the script and look for the leading actor first, so that it would be easier to invest.

But... screwed.

Han Han, Han Geng and even Liu Huohua all disagreed.

But Yin Le is still very capable. This guy finally succeeded in attracting a company that is willing to invest in "Li Xian Ji" and agreed to Yin Le's rigid request.

But they also have means.

You said you had to listen to the director, so you listened?

The contract is written in stone, but they have a way to deal with it.

However, they have just started working together, and it is obvious that Yin Le and the other party are still in the honeymoon period.

No one expected that this would become the biggest hidden danger for this movie.

"Why don't you discuss it with Brother Jin, and call Old Yin over, so the three of you can sit down and have a good talk?"

Guo Xun was thinking about it.

Of course, he was very much looking forward to filming Li Xianji.

Just kidding, this is science fiction, his ultimate dream.

No project excites him more than science fiction.

"The lead actor chosen by the investors is definitely not as reliable as Brother Jin!"

"I guess he won't be as famous as me. He is more suitable for the role of Li Xianji than anyone else!"

Now Guo Xun firmly believes in Chen Jin unconditionally.

What Han Han, what Han Geng, go to hell, now in Guo Xun’s heart, he only has this one as the absolute male lead.

In the two dramas "The Hawthorn Tree" and "Love Is Not Blind", he played two completely different roles very well. Guo Xun has never seen anyone with a wider acting range than Chen Jin, because he has a very special type.

That's the king bomb level.

He was hesitant before, because Yin Le had finally found someone willing to invest, and he had to listen to the other party's opinion.

But now, Guo Xun has given it his all.

If you offend the investors, then talk to Brother Jin and use the profits from "Love Is Not Blind" to shoot "The Legend of Li Xian Ji"?
I have to say, Guo Xun is a really smart guy.

It hasn’t even been released yet, but I’m already thinking about how to beg for alms.

"That's it!"

"Let's sit down and talk first, and then negotiate with the investors. If you don't want my brother Jin, screw you!"

Guo Xun is now a confident man.

Yes, it was given by Chen Jin!

The strongest art student in the history of Beijing Film Academy, the top scorer in the art exam of Central Academy of Drama and Beijing Film Academy, the new male star of Mou Nanlang, the top scorer in the college entrance examination with full marks in liberal arts and science, the son of the joint student of Beijing Film Academy and Beijing Arts Institute, the leading actor in the strongest tribute film "The Founding of a Party", the first Chinese best newcomer in Venice, the quasi-Venice actor who was only one vote away from Chen Jin...his buddy is Guo Xun!
Good guy, Guo Xun exclaimed. Good guy.

My buddy, this title is too long, isn't it?

If this gets out, won't the investors be scared to death?
"Hahaha!"

Guo Xun felt so excited just thinking about it.

With such a big boss protecting me, what is there to be afraid of? !

talk!
Just talk to Chen Jinnan No. 1.

disagree?
You have to agree even if you don’t agree!
"I have already said what I want to say. Who is in favor and who is against?"

Guo Xun recalled a classic line from the movie "Black Gold", which is very similar to himself now!
Having a backer really gives you confidence!

My rules are rules!

Guo Xun clenched his fist, picked up his phone and called Yin Le directly!
