Huayu Entertainment: Tianxian really wants to improve

Chapter 70 You really can do it!

Liu Yifei saw the system's task description.

Why does it seem like the system looks down on this Forbidden Kingdom?

In the initial system foreshadowing, it only mentioned that The Forbidden Kingdom was one of the watershed moments in her life.

Later in "Take Back Everything You Lost", she only mentioned that in the spring of 2007, she made her own choice and never regretted it.

No matter how you look at it, The King of Kung Fu should only bring benefits and no harm to me, right?

After all, this movie stars the two Js, namely Jackie Chan and Jet Li.

Even if the movie fails, it has nothing to do with me.

Liu Yifei thought for a moment and said, "Mom, what do you think?"

“It’s been so long since the auditions for this film, so it’s probably going to be difficult to actually get the project off the ground.

But it is said that the director of this movie, Rob Minkoff, took the script to the production company to start the project.

This director grew up near Chinatown and loves Chinese culture very much. Even if this movie fails to be successfully approved, there may be a role suitable for you in the future.

So, you can try it first, it’s just a videotape anyway.”

Liu Xiaoli analyzed the situation to Liu Yifei very seriously.

Liu Yifei thought about how excited she was when she first received the call last year.

After all, director Rob Minkoff is also a big Hollywood director. His previous film was also a Hollywood blockbuster with a production budget of 9000 million US dollars, and it was also about the story of Journey to the West.

At that time, she was still thinking, would her role be the White Bone Demon or the Spider Demon?

She was still a little curious: "Mom, did they send any requests?"

"I'll get it for you."

Liu Xiaoli took the laptop and pushed it in front of Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei saw the content of the email.

Golden Swallow.

It was the first time she knew the character's name.

It looks like an original character similar to Zixia Fairy.

Then, she looked at the more detailed requirements, which asked her to show the perseverance and courage of women. She was also told that Jin Yanzi was an orphan who sought revenge and gradually grew into a responsible hero.

“Why does it feel like it has nothing to do with Journey to the West?”

Liu Yifei looked left and right, but couldn't see any elements of Journey to the West.

However, she still feels quite fond of the role of Jin Yanzi.

The requirements of this role reflect the shadow of a Hollywood-style female character, and you can see the Hollywood-style character arc at a glance.

Everything is good, except that it doesn’t match Journey to the West!

Liu Yifei put aside her thoughts for the moment.
Anyway, the system tasks have been issued, so I'll just shoot an audition tape for now.

"Mom, please help me take a picture."

Liu Yifei made some brief preparations and then filmed the entire segment according to the audition requirements.

"Xixi, I feel like your acting has improved a lot!"

After watching Liu Yifei's performance, Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but sigh.

Before this, she had always followed Liu Yifei to the crew and had witnessed Liu Yifei's various acting performances with her own eyes.

All I can say is that the ones edited into TV movies are the best ones picked out from several.

But now, Liu Yifei just performed it once,
It has already achieved the best performance in the past.

This is huge progress!

"Hey hey hey!"

Liu Yifei couldn't help but let the corners of her mouth curl up slightly.

Why did she work so hard to complete the task? Wasn't it just to wait for this moment?

Work hard quietly and then surprise everyone!

In Liu Yifei's mind, she had already thought of the scene when Gu Bei was shocked by her acting skills during the filming of Whiplash.

Let him look down on my acting skills! ...

As time goes by, the Spring Festival is getting closer.

The Whiplash crew has also officially started filming in New York.

Gu Bei did not hold a press conference for the launch of the film.

Although Anthony's joining will definitely attract a certain amount of media attention due to his fame.

But Anthony has already joined for free, and it is really a bit too much to use his popularity to attract traffic.

Anthony's popularity should be used in key areas.

For example: Cannes!

"Hello, Henry Cavill."

"Hello, Andrew Garfield."

Henry hasn't yet trained to the level of a superman, but his overall skeleton is already a size larger than Andrew's.

Even though he is not much taller, he appears taller visually.

"How's your drum practice going?" Henry asked Andrew. "You're the leading actor, so you'll have the most drumming scenes to film."

"not so good!"

Andrew gave a wry smile.

He has also studied jazz drums and was able to temporarily take over the drummer position in his previous band.

But when he got the music score from the explosive drummer, he was completely dumbfounded.

Is this drumming?
This is self-abuse!
Is it really necessary to practice jazz drums at such a high speed?
Playing the drums hundreds of times per minute, I'm afraid only robots can do this.

wrong!

Robots can't do it either, because jazz emphasizes freedom and spontaneity, and requires occasional improvisation. Robots can repeat but cannot do this kind of improvisation.

"I can't do it either. Such a fast speed and double hitting is too difficult!" Henry said with some emotion.

“At first, I suspected it was the director’s personal experience,” Andrew said shortly afterward. “But then I realized our director didn’t study music.”

"He didn't study directing, but he became a director. Who knows if he can really become one?" Henry said again.

"impossible!"

Andrew shook his head firmly.

During the interview, he discovered that in addition to Gu Bei's directing ability, his acting skills were also unexpectedly good.

He didn't want to believe that Gu Bei had another ability.

Otherwise it would be really evil.

Just then, Gu Bei walked in from outside.

“Director!” “Director!” “Director!”

Along the way, crew members kept greeting him.

He came to the center of the room, where the props had been placed, and they were about to film the scene of the male protagonist practicing drums alone.

He pointed at the drum and asked the prop crew, "How's this one?"

The props team replied firmly, "Absolutely no problem. Everything has been debugged and we have spare props ready. We can replace them at any time."

Gu Bei nodded.

He sat down at the drums and began to try it himself.

The sound and picture are recorded and shot separately, but he also needs to be aware of it and cannot wait for post-production to make up for it.

"Da da da da da-"

The rapid sound of jazz drums rang out in the room.

The drumstick hit the drumhead invisible, making a sound.

When Andrew and Henry saw this scene, they looked at each other with a bad look on their faces.

No, you really can!
