I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

"What?! I hit the nail on the head, now you have nothing to say!"

"Unlike you, I don't need a stunt double for riding horses and fighting scenes."

"Little sister, you should learn from me in this regard."

"Also, don't play female generals anymore, you don't have the temperament of a general at all."

"Your acting skills are nothing special. Did you even go to college? I'm a student at the Beijing Film Academy."

"To succeed in the entertainment industry, it's not enough to just be good-looking; you also need acting skills..."

At this moment, Liu Tianxian didn't resemble a fairy sister at all; instead, she looked like a mischievous little devil, her little mouth slurring incessantly.

They were practically pointing their fingers at Tian Tian's head and yelling at her.

Cheng Sheng, who was listening from the side, was speechless. He had never known that Liu Tianxian had such a nasty side to her personality.

It's all tea-like and a bit cunning!

I wonder where he learned this unexpected cuteness from.

Could it be a gene that Liu Xiaoli inherited?
It's like angels and demons walking together.

However, Liu Tianxian was right about one thing.

She never uses a stunt double, whether it's for action scenes or dramatic scenes.

There are quite a few actors in the entertainment industry who use body doubles.

Due to scheduling conflicts, or because actors are filming multiple projects at the same time and are unable to perform action scenes or horseback riding scenes, multiple stunt doubles are used, including stand-ins for dialogue scenes, action scenes, and back views.

The different functions and types of stand-ins have truly broadened the horizons of ordinary people!

It is precisely because of the discerning eyes of the audience that the excessive use of stunt doubles has become synonymous with unprofessionalism in the minds of the general public.

Online, netizens' criticism of the frequent or excessive use of stunt doubles has come on like a tidal wave, making celebrities who do not use stunt doubles stand out as a rare breed of dedicated professionals.

As a top-tier actress, Liu Yifei is remarkable in terms of film and television resources, acting skills, and professionalism.

She never uses a stunt double when filming; she's incredibly dedicated.

For example, in the action scenes of "The Return of the Condor Heroes," he did all of his own stunts without a double, demonstrating a level of professionalism comparable to veteran actors, which is truly admirable.

It's worth noting that the Ancient Tomb scenes in "The Return of the Condor Heroes" were filmed in Jiuzhaigou.

It was winter at the time, and Jiuzhaigou is at a high altitude. Filming action scenes in such a place must have been quite tough for Liu Yifei.

One scene was filmed in winter, and we had to soak in water that was close to 0 degrees Celsius for most of the day.

To present a realistic scene, Liu Tianxian lay in the water without any protective gear, her whole body soaked in icy water.

During the filming of "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Liu Yifei almost had an accident because she did not use a stunt double.

In the scene where Little Dragon Girl escapes from the ancient tomb, Liu Tianxian and Huang Xiaoming are about to walk out of a waterfall, and Liu Tianxian is almost swept away by the rushing waterfall.

The crew was terrified and tried to stop her from going into the water, because given the shape of the waterfall, if Liu Tianxian were swept down, she would either drown or be completely disfigured... Fortunately, she was finally stopped by a director!

Cheng Sheng greatly admires Liu Tianxian for her dedication.

"Cheng Sheng..."

Da Tiantian was so angry that her face turned red, but she couldn't argue with Liu Tianxian, so she could only turn to Cheng Sheng for help.

Cheng Sheng looked at Da Tian Tian's watery eyes and felt extremely troubled.

"Alright, don't you guys know what kind of occasion this is? Aren't you afraid of making a fool of yourselves!"

Fortunately, Liu Xiaoli helped Cheng Sheng out of the predicament by stepping forward and saying a few words to the two of them. This eased the awkward atmosphere.

As the movie ended, the audience left the theater with lingering excitement, all still immersed in the film's plot, almost all stunned by Director Chen's incredibly powerful declaration at the end.

"My God, I feel that Chinese history is much more fascinating than European history."

"Yes, especially Zhang Jiao, he's so charming, I'm completely captivated by him."

"I like that female general named Fan; she is so beautiful."

"No wonder it was selected for the main competition; I predict it will win the Palme d'Or."

"Historical films made by Asians are even better than those from Hollywood. I would like to watch them again."

"Honey, hurry up and come to Theater One. Yes, this movie won't disappoint you. You'll definitely miss out if you don't see it."

As people walked out of the theater and talked enthusiastically about the audience, some passing tourists were immediately drawn in.

As a film nominated for the main competition and occupying the largest theater, it's hard for "Three Kingdoms" not to attract attention.

Initially, due to a lack of experience, there was no promotion for the film.

But good wine needs no bush.

After a couple of screenings, word of mouth for "Three Kingdoms" spread quickly, and many tourists flocked to see this amazing Eastern film.

The film has been reported by various media outlets and journalists, and even professional film critics have given it high praise.

This also attracted many tourists who don't particularly enjoy watching historical films to the Three Kingdoms.

For a time, Theater 1 was completely full.

The film's reputation is spreading rapidly.

On the Cannes Film Festival's official website, there wasn't a single negative review for "Three Kingdoms".

[The Yellow Turban Rebellion in the Three Kingdoms period, a historical film from the East! It's truly amazing! I wouldn't normally watch this type of movie, but after watching it, I found myself pondering its meaning. The history of this great Eastern power is truly captivating.]

Good heavens, Cheng has made another classic film. This is the second time I've seen one of his movies; the first was in Venice. He's incredibly talented. Like "The Great Tang Dynasty," he uses the techniques of art-house cinema to make a historical film.

I finally understand why a historical film could be nominated for the main competition. If those judges had rejected this movie, I probably would have taken my weapons and gone to confront them, because they might have made me miss out on a great film.

Film reviews appeared on the official website, keeping the popularity of "Three Kingdoms" high.

I'm angry.

It became a huge hit.

Before the awards ceremony, the film "Three Kingdoms" was incredibly popular at the Cannes Film Festival.

There are long queues outside the theater every day, and as soon as one group of viewers comes out, another group immediately enters the theater.

With the huge success of "Three Kingdoms", Chen Daoming, Da Tiantian, Bao Guoan and others also became popular.

As soon as these people appear outside the theater, they immediately attract the audience's attention, especially Director Chen. Whenever he appears, a deafening roar of shouts can be heard: "Zhang! Zhang! Zhang! Zhang! Zhang!"

This shows how deeply Chen Daoming's portrayal of Zhang Jiao resonated with the audience.

In addition, Jing Tian's portrayal of the female lead, Fan Yuan, also made her a star at Cannes.

After all, she was the only female lead in the entire movie, and the other female characters didn't have many scenes.

Even Zeng Li, who played the second female lead, Empress He, only had a dozen or so lines. (End of Chapter)
