Magic Modified Huayu

But private friendship is private friendship, and Director Wei's cutting ties with them in their careers is even more difficult for them to accept.

Yu and Wei had been vying for the leading male role in the play, but when they heard Director Wei say this, they immediately became anxious: "Director Wei, the last incident with Director Zhang was just a misunderstanding. I was just promoting it for a friend. There shouldn't be such a consequence, right?"

Last time, Zhang Yibai made a public comeback as the director Xidu who had been imprisoned, and then a group of friends helped to promote him, including but not limited to Zhang Yi, Yu Hewei, Huang Bo, Xu Zheng and others. You know what, these Mesozoic actors have a really good reputation.

A Station did not cooperate with them on drug-trafficking dramas afterwards, but they did cooperate on other dramas.

So these people thought the matter was over.

I didn’t expect Director Wei still remembered it.

"Director Wei, you can't just condemn everyone with one stroke." Yu Hewei whispered, "Ever since that incident, I've immediately drawn a clear line between myself and those people in the circle who crossed the West."

Director Wei grumbled, "That's because the leader has spoken, and you dare not draw a clear line."

Yu and Wei did not refute either.

Indeed, if the leader of the Six Gates had not personally supported him and Director Wei had not clearly taken a stand, he would definitely not have cut ties with Zhang Yibai.

In the entertainment industry, there are more people involved in drug-related activities than those involved in pornographic activities.

It's too common.

There is no way to object to it.

But as long as the threat is big enough and the benefits are big enough, these relationships are nothing.

Yu and Wei, in line with the idea of ​​discussing the matter objectively, seriously recommended themselves: "Director Wei, I think I have the ability to play the role of Mr. Shao well."

"You can really act well."

Director Wei absolutely believes this.

For many people, you can doubt their character, but you don't have to doubt their ability.

Talent and character are never equal.

Director Wei has no problem with Yu and Wei's acting skills.

In fact, the problem with his character is not that big.

It's nothing more than a rumor that he had an affair with Wang Likun during his marriage.

As for Director Wei's emotional behavior, we should not despise Yu and Wei just because of this matter.

The problem with Yu and Wei is that they take on any role.

Director Wei didn't want him to go film "Reinforcements Arrive Tomorrow" right after he made him famous.

Moreover, according to the rumors that Director Wei heard, due to the butterfly effect, this play was advanced in this world.

Yu and Wei may have already finished filming.

There are no secrets in the circle.

Director Wei asked directly, "Did you shoot a movie called 'Reinforcements Arrive Tomorrow' before?"

"Yes."

Yu and Wei hadn't reacted yet, why did Director Wei suddenly mention this play.

"This is a movie written and produced by Mr. Liu Heping. Mr. Liu Heping, I agreed without thinking to work with such a top screenwriter." Yu Hewei said.

Director Wei believed what Yu and Wei said.

Judging from commercial performance, Liu Heping is actually not a good screenwriter.

However, in terms of artistic achievements and status in the circle, Liu Heping is at the top of the food chain of screenwriters in the entertainment industry.

Regardless of whether the audience has seen the plays he wrote or not, they are basically well-known and have received high praise.

For example, "Yongzheng Dynasty"

Li Wei as an Official, The Ming Dynasty 1566

"All Quiet in Peking"

In the field of TV dramas, Liu Heping has basically reached the top from the perspective of screenwriter and achievements, except for commercial value, and there is no room for improvement.

But it’s limited to the field of TV dramas.

Liu Heping is the chairman of the Chinese Television Drama Screenwriters Committee, which is a different circle from the film industry.

In recent years, the film and television circles have become increasingly integrated.

However, in previous years, the film industry was clearly at a higher level.

Many of the big names in the television industry are younger brothers in the film industry.

For example, Brother Hu. For example, many veteran actors at the national first-class actor level.

For example, the ratings queen Sun Li. It’s not that they don’t want to enter the film industry.

These are purely the honors they have won in the TV drama circle, which are not recognized at all by the film industry.

And they have never demonstrated their appeal and dominance in the film industry.

But people always strive for higher goals.

Although in recent years, many movie stars have started to come down to earth to shoot TV series.

But there is no doubt that the movie is still a bit higher.

Movie stars may not be as popular as TV stars, but their status is definitely better - although with the development of the times, this seems to be of no use.

However, many people in the circle still want to break into the film industry.

This also includes Liu Heping, who has reached the pinnacle in the field of TV drama screenwriting.

He also wants to make progress and break into the film industry, where he can call the shots just like he does in the TV drama industry.

So, the first script he chose to enter the film industry was "Reinforcements Arrive Tomorrow".

Write a biography of Guo Dang, an officer who surrendered and lived a small life.

Perhaps he had collected enough information and felt that there was a huge hidden story behind this, with many human and political considerations worth exploring.

But this matter itself is very unjust.

To put it another way with low EQ:

You deserve to be banned!

"You play the male lead Fang Xianjue?"

"Correct."

Yu Hewei was a little excited: "Teacher Liu's male lead."

The male protagonists of the script written by Liu Heping are big names of the same level as Tang Guoqiang, Xu Zheng, and Chen Baoguo.

Liu Ye, the male lead in "All Quiet in Peking," is the youngest of the three, but he's already won the Best Actor award at a young age. It's exciting that Yu Hewei and Wei Yingchao are the male leads in Liu Heping.

Then Director Wei poured a basin of cold water on him.

"How's the research going?"

“Very detailed.”

"So you must be very familiar with Fang Xianjue's life?"

Yu and Wei began to calm down: "Director Wei, what you mean is..."

Director Wei narrowed his eyes. "Fang Xianjue studied at the Whampoa Military Academy's 3rd Infantry Class, the 2nd Advanced Education Class, and the 4th Class of the Army University's Class B General Officers. He subsequently participated in the Northern Expedition, the Central Plains War, the Battle of Taierzhuang, the Battle of Changsha, and the Battle of Hengyang. In May 1944, during the Battle of Hengyang, he commanded the 10th Army of the National Revolutionary Army, facing a siege by Japanese forces six times their own, defending the city for 47 days. Ultimately, Hengyang fell to the enemy with no reinforcements or ammunition. In other words, he was captured by the enemy."

“If it was just before he was captured, then it would be nothing, he was undoubtedly a hero.

"The problem is that at the critical moment when the Japanese army broke into Hengyang, Fang Xianqie led his troops to surrender to the enemy, becoming the highest-ranking general to surrender to the Japanese army in the late period of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the only Whampoa general to surrender.

"Being both a hero and a surrendered general in one person, Fang Xianjue is very controversial.

"In mainland China, it's generally accepted that Fang Xianqie defected to the enemy in the latter stages of the Hengyang Defense War. Only in Taiwan did some people whitewash him.

"Teacher Yu, tell me, is the character you play, Fang Xianjue, a hero or a surrendered general?"

Yu and Wei's expressions changed.

"Director Wei, this kind of thing isn't for us actors to judge, right?"

Director Wei said coldly, "Then you're playing a hero. Let me ask you, there are over a million Chinese heroes fighting the Japanese invaders. With so many heroes fighting the Japanese, is there nothing else you could film? Why do you have to sing the praises of a controversial surrendered general? Is there something wrong with your IQ, or is there something wrong with your ass?"

Yu and Wei were stunned and speechless: "Director Wei, this is not the script I wrote."

Director Wei sneered and knocked on the table: "You just said that your research was very detailed."

Yu Hewei: "..."

It’s hard to deny what I just admitted.

"You are an excellent actor, I have never doubted that. So, you will do a lot of preparation for filming. Then, you must have known about Fang Xianjue's controversy, but you still filmed it."

Director Wei's voice was low, but his words were like knives, piercing the bone: "Yu Hewei, are you short of money?"

Yu Hewei's voice was a little bitter: "No shortage."

He has made it big.

Whether they are successful stars or actors, none of them are short of money.

"So you don't have any other scenes to shoot?"

"Have."

Director Wei laughed, but his laughter was a bit cold. "If you support Director Xidu, I won't consider you again when I shoot a drug-busting drama. You filmed a general who surrendered to the Japanese during the Guo army, and then you come to audition for a national hero? Do you think it's appropriate?"

Yu and Wei's faces turned pale.

There are some things that no one in the circle cares about.

Director Wei has to exaggerate this.

How could he bear it?

Yu and Wei couldn't handle it, and neither could the other actors.

In recent years, among the roles they have taken on, there are quite a few with crooked butts.

Do you ask them if they know?

Those "hopelessly illiterate" people may not really know.

But these good actors can understand the script.

They know it better than anyone else.

But they still performed it.

When they make a choice, they should pay the price.

No one in the circle asked them for payment.

Then Director Wei will ask them personally.

Make them hurt.

Only after experiencing pain will you know how to cherish your reputation and prestige.

"You all are silent, you all sympathize with Yu and Wei, right?"

Director Wei glanced around.

Few dared to look him in the eye.

Because this situation is really not uncommon in the circle.

And many people really feel that they are wronged.

Is this a thing?

Director Wei also knows that concepts are not so easy to change.

He had no intention of killing these people at once, nor did he have the intention of cutting ties with them.

So his tone quickly softened.

"It's your freedom to decide what roles you want to take. I won't interfere, and I can't. You can make your own films and earn your own money, and I have no objection. Similarly, I make my own films and follow my own rules, and you don't have to object. You have the freedom to take on roles, and I have the freedom not to use you. We both have the freedom to make our own choices.

"I know that many of you accept roles not because you have any real problems with your butts, but simply because you can't afford to lose face, or because you want to flatter the big directors and screenwriters."
